Lauren woke up to the sound of birds chirping, and her phone going off. "Hello?" She said with a tired voice. "Lauren, where are you? Class is about ready to start." Rachel said through the other line. "What!" She panicked. She looked around frantically, there was Puck, still asleep. "Crap!" She said so loud that it woke him up. "Babe, go back to sleep." Lauren shook her head. "Looks like I'm missing 1st period today, but I'll be there later." Lauren said and hung up the phone. "Get up! I didn't get home last night. We're both, in trouble now." Lauren said pushing her boyfriend. "S***!" Puck said. "Crap 18 missed phone calls from my parents." She quickly dialed her mom's cell. "Hey mom, Sorry I-" She couldn't get a word in because she started to scream. "I'm fine mom. Really. I was at Rachel's last night." Lauren said looking at Puck. "Yeah, you should've called her. Yeah I'm not missing. I'll be at home later. I promise. I love ya too." Lauren said as she hung up the phone. "That was a close one." Puck said. Lauren just shook her head. She all of a sudden realized they were in the bed of his truck, and they spent the night. "What did we do?" Lauren said. She knew they didn't do "it" but she still can't believe that she woke up next to Noah Puckerman. "Babe, it's okay. We just fell asleep talking, remember?" She shook her head. "Still we-" She started to look down. "We fell asleep talking. We did nothing. Okay." Puck said taking her hands in his and gently rubbing circles. "Let's get to school. Rachel sort of needs me, cause someone decided to tell Sam their secret!" Lauren said shooting daggers at Puck.
15 minutes later they arrived at school. "Umm.. where in the same clothes we were in yesterday." Lauren said just realizing the situation. Puck just laughed. "I don't think anyone will notice." Puck said smiling at his girl friend.
They quickly hop out of the truck and into the school. Suddenly everyone's eyes were on them. "And you said they wouldn't notice." Lauren said. "Hey, who knew we were being watched?" Puck said, taking her hand. She quickly let go. "You okay?" Puck said. She realized what she did. "Sorry, instinct." She said taking his hand back to were it belongs. Lauren sees Sam, but no Rachel. She walks up to him and said. "What did you do?" Lauren said loud enough that everyone can hear. "I didn't do anything. I didn't know until Puck told me remember? Now she wont talk to me!" Sam said, looking a little sad. Lauren quickly hit Puck. "Ouch!" Lauren just laughed. "Fix it." Was all Lauren said and she quickly went to go find Rachel. Leaving the two boys behind.
"Same clothes I see?" Sam said with the look. "Look, it's nothing. We did nothing! We just ended up falling asleep in the back of my truck, while talking." Puck said surrendering. "Back in the truck ehh?" Sam said. "Dude seriously, What's up with you? Why wont you tell her?" Puck said to Sam quickly avoiding the question. "I don't know. I've tried too, she just runs away." Sam said looking down. "That's how they are. Look you get them in a room, and corner them. And I bet you 5 bucks Rachel is in the auditorium." Puck said knowingly. "She is, she wont let me talk to her or even see her face." Sam said looking down, and feeling guilty. "I think I've lost her. I-I- I don't know what to do." Sam said. All of a sudden Puck is smiling. He sees Lauren, pulling Rachel down the hallway. Obiviously, by force. "Well, dude here is your chance." Puck said.
Sam quickly looks to where Puck is referring to. And he sees Rachel, being dragged by Lauren. "How does she do that?" Sam said referring to Lauren. "Lauren, is stubborn. And she wants what's best for Rachel." Puck said with a smile. "Hey, babe." Puck said. Lauren just shot him a glare, saying not right now. "Sam, talk to Rachel. Rachel talk to Sam. Stop being dumb... and tell each other." Lauren said. "It took you 3 months to tell Noah you liked him, and you kept on running away when you did. So why are you forcing me to talk to him." Rachel said pointing to Sam. Pucks mouth dropped. "3 months!" Puck said. All that time, trying to get her to go out with him. Everything he did. She didn't even get the courage to say "I love you" until 3 months later. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said anything." Rachel said, taking that oppurtunity to leave. But unfortunately for her, her best friend was on the wrestling team. And managed to keep her there and talk to Puck at the same time. "Look, I'm sorry! Okay. But we got a happy ending anyway? Right?" Lauren said with a smile. Puck just smiled back, she was right.
"Rachel, Please listen too me. I'm I'm." Sam said, he couldn't get a word in. "Please don't be sorry. I'm fine! I'm used to being heartbroken. It's why I have the stronger walls then my friend Lauren here, who can let them down for the playboy bunny. Who will probably get heartbroken within the week. I on the other hand will not. I may like you Sam. But please, don't feel sorry for me. I'm fine." Lauren can't believe she said that about her. Rachel all of a sudden realized what she said. She quickly turned around to look at Lauren. "Lauren! I'm sorry, I didn't mean too! I swear. It just came out. I-I-" Lauren took a look at Puck, looked quickly away and decided to leave. She turned around and said. "Next time Rachel, think before you speak. You could end up hurting someone. Or loose a friend." Lauren said.
Puck just stood their. He didn't know what to do. "Why? Rachel?" Puck said. "I finally got her to open up and now. Look what you did. She was trying to help you! And you gave a her a short leash. Now I have to fix her." Puck said leaving the two of them to be. Rachel all of a sudden felt tears strolling down her cheeks.
She went to go walk away when she felt Sam's hand on her shoulder. The touch sent a major heat wave through out her body. "Please. Rachel, I-I-" Then the bell rang.
