AN - I'm so sorry for the delay between updates. I'm in the middle of my exams right now. I know it is short but I hope you'll like it.


Puck was glad to enter the Berrys' house on Monday evening. After the slushie incident, everything spiraled down and he was mad, so mad he needed the two hours he was alone during Rachel's dance rehearsal to make everything right (or at least better). His girl was strong and he had never imagined how much she had to be to go through high school but today had been a nightmare and he wanted to make her forget the douches from McKinley and also, making sure they (who was he kidding? The main problem was his stupid former best friend) will not try to upset her again.

First, starting with dinner. He was going to cook her favorite dish: vegan lasagna. Don't be surprised, Puck could cook. After all, he was in charge of feeding his sister most of the time. However, vegan food, it was a first. Rachel had discovered her vegan side after starting high school: he'd heard her say that she couldn't handle eating meat. So much had changed when they started high school… He took the tomatoes and the eggplants from the fridge and started the recipe. He had printed it at the school library during his free period before Glee. Planning must come with dating Rachel.

While he was preparing the lasagna (hopefully it will be eatable, the back up plan was getting some Breadstix delivery), Puck was thinking about what he could do to get back at Finn. The tall teen was a coward, he was not aiming his anger at Puck, he would have understood that but picking on Rachel, the girl Finn was supposed to like, was just down right lame, even for Finn.

Puck needed to make things right. He had found Rachel crying in the restrooms after receiving Santana's text. Rachel never cried because of the slushies, that was what was the more upsetting. At first, he thought she was feeling like that because of the persons whom have doused her.


'Did you just kiss me to make me stop crying?', Rachel was smiling. He would do anything to see her smiling.

'Well, it's worked in a way. I've never seen you this upset about a slushy facial'.

'They've ruined your letterman jacket', her smiled faded and she looked at her hands.

'What?'. Puck was confused. His girl was on his lap, drenched in frozen corn syrup, and she was upset because of a stupid jacket?

'I'm sorry, it is ruined. Because of me…' She trailed off.

'Rach', I don't care about the jacket'.

'Really?'

'Look at me'. She turned her head up and looked in his eyes, she was only seeing sincerity. 'You're more important that this fucking piece of clothes. You look hot with my number and my name on you when you are wearing it but you look hot all the time', he added.

Santana and Brittany had chosen that moment to interrupt them, bringing some dry clothes to Rachel before going to a Cheerios meeting. While changing, the brunette was looking at Puck and he was getting more and more agitated.

'Noah, I need you to promise me that you won't use violence against Finn and Azimio'.

'I cannot let them…'. He stopped when she touched his cheek with her hand.

'Promise me, think about the future and college'.

'Ok, my princess, I promise'. He was totally unable to deny her anything.


If only the slushy facial from Finn had been the only event of the day… Puck had been early for Glee (a first but he really wanted to spend time with his girlfriend, lunch time had not been that smooth you know) and Rachel was always early for Glee. Well, usually… When the choir room started to fill up with the other students. He was started to get worried until he saw Rachel enter the room with Brittany by her side. But why was she wearing her gym clothes? At the same time, he heard Santana yelling at Quinn (Girls, he couldn't remember how he had been able to be with these Cheerios). Rachel nodded at Brittany and went to sit next to Puck, kissing him lightly on the lips.

'Dry already?' Quinn smiled at Rachel. At that moment Puck understood why his girl had changed again. Rachel grabbed his hand and leaned her head on his shoulder. This calmed him down immediately. He knew he would never physically hurt a girl (he was not his father) but Quinn needed to be reminded not to mess with his girlfriend.


Puck was putting the dish into the oven when he called Santana to explain his plan. Rachel had said no violence but he was going to find another way but he needed help with it and the latina had been really helpful and kind of protective towards Rachel today. What was it about?

Will has written the week's theme on the white board. Secrets. 'I want you to sing about something you never said, you don't need to be specific, the goal is to show emotions', the teacher added.

'Rachel's a slut, oops that's not a secret anymore'. Finn blurted.

'You don't slushy a girl you've proposed two days ago'. Santana said. After the second slushy of the day, Brittany and Santana had helped Rachel again and they had talked. Rachel had explained what had happened on Saturday with Finn. The petite brunette had also made allusion to Brittana; Santana was shocked and had denied at first but Rachel had said that she was supportive (how could she not with her gay fathers!) and had assured Santana that she was available if she wanted to talk about it.

Quinn gasped at the revelation.

'Why? Puck slushied her everyday during months and she slept with him, if I keep going she will crawl to my bed, eventually', Finn retorted.

'You know Giant bigfoot, no one should have to endure floppy sex with you', Santana was fuming. While she was ranting, Rachel took Puck's hand and left the choir room after informing Mister Schuester that she wasn't feeling well and that Noah was taking her home.


After clearing up the plan with Santana (and Brittany) over the phone… These two are always together… Puck set the table up and took the dish out of the oven. At the same time, Rachel entered the house and came directly in the kitchen (it definitively smelled good). Once she saw the table and the food, she just jumped on Puck, her arms resting on his neck and her legs around his waist. She was peppering his face with kisses.

'Lets it before I take you upstairs'. Puck was hoping the lasagna was good.

She took a fork full of it and moaned: 'So good'.

'Really?', he was smirking at the sound she made when eating the vegan dish.

'Oh yes, I'm not letting you back to your mother's house now that I know you can cook like that'. She was smiling.
