A/N: Because Puckleberry is life.
A/U as always because Glee didn't give me enough Puckleberry.
Prompt: Lauren Zizes was his guardian angel in some ways (Set in Blame It On The Alcohol)
Pizes Friendship.
Noah Puckerman was the reason that Rachel Berry was having this party (that the rest of the glee club have dubbed 'The Rachel Berry House Party Train Wreck Extravaganza') after his conversation with her in the choir room earlier in the day...
"What's up my hot little Jewish American Princess?" He smirks as he sits down next to her on the piano bench where she's trying to write an original song for Glee Club for Sectionals, Regionals whatever the next competition that was coming up.
"What do you want Puckerman?" She snaps at him, damn Rachel Berry needed to chill, like seriously.
"A little birdie told me you are home alone this weekend, so how about I come over... with a-" He says a smirk appearing on his face.
"Again, I'm saying no to a party Puck!" She cuts him off, what was it with this girl? Any other girl would be dying to spend the weekend with him.
"Come on Berry, just the Glee kids, we are going outta our minds stressed over sectionals and shit" He explains.
"You mean Regionals?" She asks even though he knows it rhetorical.
"See even more pressure, come on Berry, I will arrange everything" He half- pleads with her.
"Wait how did you know I'd be home alone?" She asks him and he smirks because he has her.
"It's information a guy like me just knows" He says smugly, "See you at Eight Berry" He says over his shoulder as he's walking away and he can see a little smile on her face.
That didn't mean he had to like the fact she wanted to play spin the bottle when she was buzzed.
Who gets buzzed off two wine coolers anyway? Rachel Berry that's who.
First of all it starts with Brittany spinning the bottle and it lands on Sam- which he can't help but notice angers Santana as she is making some random outbursts about his lips being hers in the background as the two blondes kiss, then it's Finn and Quinn, Artie and Britt.
"Parttayy!" He hears the petite Jewish girl say excitedly, "My turn" She says in her enthusiastic kinda way, as she spins the bottle and how he hopes it lands on him, especially as he knows she's over Finn and Finn's over her I mean he's half way to getting back together with Quinn.
Why does he care?
He has Lauren right?
The bottle lands on Blaine.
It lands on Blaine.
It didn't land on him.
He watches Rachel and Blaine kiss, he's not watching and cheering like everyone else (even Kurt surprisingly) Puck can't help but stare, wishing it was him. He shakes his head he knows he shouldn't be thinking of her like that, not when he was something kinda going on with Lauren.
"Your face tastes awesome..." He hears Rachel say as her and Blaine pull away from their kiss which was far to long for a game of spin the bottle in his opinion anyway.
"I think I've found a new duet partner!" She says ecstatically.
Puck's eyes don't leave her, he's capturing all of Rachel's movements.
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me, ohh?
"Ok Puckerman, you seriously need to man up!" Lauren says as the room is cheering and joining in with the duet that is being sung.
"What are you talking about Zizes?" Puck looks over at her knowing exactly what she is talking about.
"Berry" Zizes simply states.
"What about her?" Puck asks as casually as he can.
"Puckerman we are partners in crime.. but she's your girl" Lauren says with a weird smile on her face Puck feels weird now.
"No she's not" He tries to tell himself, but he's failing, his voice gives it away, it's not loud and crass like his normal voice.
"She would be if you grew a pair and told her how you feel" Lauren says and Puck thinks sometimes Lauren Zizes is his guardian angel.
He smiles at her.
"What are you waiting for? Go and get her" Lauren says in her harsh tone of voice, the one that kinda scares him, so he's up on his feet within a few seconds (not that he'd admit that to anyone, he's still a BAMF)
Everyone was near enough starting to pass out, there was a few members still drinking, singing or watching television,Puck finds Rachel drinking a glass of water in the kitchen and lucky enough for him she is alone.
"Noah!" She says loudly as soon as she sees him which makes him laugh quietly, "You doing ok my hot, little, Jewish Princess?" He asks as he approaches her, her face reaction changes and then she looks up at him expectantly, "Why do you call me that?" She asks him.
He's a little taken back by her question.
"What?" He asks in retaliation to her previous question.
"You always say hot at the beginning of your endearment?" She says and hear she goes with her big words.
"Because you are Rachel" He says simply because simple put Rachel Berry was hot.
"You just said my real name" She says back, she's staring at him- her gaze so intense he can't help but gulp.
"I-" He starts but gets tongue tied.
"Isn't Lauren going to be looking for you?" Rachel asks quietly.
"No" He says shaking his head.
"Why not?" She questions him.
"Because I-" Puck once again, gets tongue tied, he's nervous, this is new for him,expressing his feelings.
"Noah?" She asks softly, closing the gap between them, "Are you ok?" She asks in that same soft tone of voice.
"I like you" He says almost inaudibly.
"I like you too Noah, we are friends" She says smiling at him, they were friends that they had established.
"No, Rachel, I mean i like you more than a friend" He says louder this time, he's found his voice.
"Oh Noah" She says her voice unsure.
"I get it" He says with a shake of his head, this was stupid, why did he let Lauren talk him into this, he needs to leave now, he turns to do so but before he can make his escape, Rachel grabs his arm firmly keeping him in place.
"No, Noah, wait, I just assumed you were with Lauren, you are always together" She says.
"I don't like her that way, me and her are friends, I want more than that with you" He responds.
There's a silence that falls over them for a couple of seconds and it's killing him.
"Rachel will you say something? Anything?" He asks he can't cope with this.
Her lips taste like strawberry, that's all he can think when he registers she's kissing him, one of her hands gripping his t-shirt pulling him closer to her as he is pushing her back up against the work top, the kiss started off slow (just lip grazing really) but now it was passionate, heated, all consuming.
"Puckerman i'm.. oh" Lauren says and then stops as she sees two of her fellow Glee club members in a hot make out session.
"Lauren" Rachel says, as she detaches her lips from Noah's, her voice hoarse.
"I see you grew a pair and told her then" Lauren Zizes smirks, she's a BAMF.
That's all she says before she leaves out of Rachel's front door.
"So, she's not going to kill me or anything is she? Because not to say i'm the best, even though we know I am, we can't win Regionals without me" Rachel rambles, she's back to being her usual self.
"She's not going to kill you, you're my girl now" Noah says smiling at the brunette in front of him,who just wraps her arms around his neck.
The next morning Rachel Berry wakes up with her first hangover, but she doesn't care because of the person lying next to her on one of the make up beds she made up in her dad's Oscar room, she hears the snores of her fellow Glee Club members but in that moment she's actually never been happier, as she feels his lips on the side of her neck.
"How you feeling my hot, little, Jewish Princess?" He asks and his hot breath hitting her skin, causing her to giggle.
"My head hurts but other than that I think I'm fine" She says truthfully.
"I know you're fine baby" He whispers, as he pulls her back towards his chest, nibbling at her neck.
"Noah you are incorrigible" She laughs turning in his arms to face him.
"What's wrong baby?" He whispers, he's aware that the rest of the Glee Club are still sleeping
"I'm just glad this wasn't a dream.." She whispers kissing him gently.
"Puckleberry is back bitches!" Kurt shouts out loud, which wakes everyone up, causing there to be pillows thrown his direction, eventually everyone laughs saying they knew that Puckleberry would get back together eventually.
