Never Forgotten Past
Last Time: Puck told Sarah about what was happening at his house. Sarah became upset and made him promise to tell someone next time something bad happens. And that's what you missed last time on Never Forgotten Past.

Much Needed Night Out
Sarah's Point of View
Puck held the door open as we walked up to the bowling alley.
"Why thank you," I giggled as I walked through.
"You're welcome ma'am," he laughed back.
We walked up to the front desk and waited for the cashier to come and serve us.
"I'd like," Puck looked over at me and raised his eyebrows, I held up two fingers, "Two games and two pairs of shoes," he told the lady.
"Size?" the employee asked.
"Ten for me," Puck said.
"I'll take an eight and a half," I told the lady.
She nodded before bending down and grabbing the shoes, "Can I have one of each of your shoes?"
Puck and I nodded then bent down to do as she said. We passed our shoes over the counter and grabbed the bowling ones.
"Lane 14," the worker said before turning to the next customers.
The two of us walked over to the sides where there were the different sized balls. Puck automatically grabbed the first 15 pound he saw.
"You sure about that?" I asked as I scanned the different sizes.
"My fingers fit and I can throw it well, so I'm keeping it," Puck said, "Here."
He passed me an eleven pounder that seemed like it would work, but I knew better.
"Thanks, but no thanks, I'm choosing my own ball so you can't sabotage me," I told him when I put the ball back and continued searching for the ball.
Puck laughed, "Whatever Sars," he said before turning and walking towards our lane.
I looked for another minute before ending on the ball Puck originally gave me. It fit and was the perfect weight. I headed towards where Puck was sitting at lane 14.
"Hey," I smiled when I sat down after putting the ball in the ball return.
Puck looked up, "Isn't that the ball I gave to you but you said wasn't good enough?"
I rolled my eyes then bent down to put on my shoes. My boyfriend laughed then turned back around. I looked up from my shoes and smiled at Puck who was setting up the bowling system. We really were going to be ok, despite what's happened in our lives, everything was going to be great.
Puck turned towards me and smiled, "Ready?"
"Oh yeah," I said while standing. I walked over to my orange ball and picked it up, "Be prepared to lose Puckerman," I taunted.
I took a breath then threw the ball down the lane. It spun and knocked down seven of the pins.
"Yes," I said under my breath.
"Nice job," Puck clapped lightly, "But I bet I'm going to do better on my turn."
I rolled my eyes then went over to the ball return. I cleanly knocked down the last three pins.
"Thank you, thank you very much," I curtsied towards Puck, "Kiss please."
He smiled then leaned in before pulling away, "Not. Until. I. Win," he laughed as he walked over to his own ball then to the front of the lane.
"Oh my God," I muttered under my breath as I sat down.
Puck smirked over his shoulder then tossed the ball down the lane. I felt my mouth go slack as each of the ten pins flew in the air.
Puck jumped around, "Yes! Haha, loser!" he yelled.
I rolled my eyes, "Nice job."
Puck put a fat kiss on my lips, "I think I like this game now."
"It's just round one," I muttered.
"Just," Puck pointed out as he sat down, "Go, your turn," he pushed me towards the ball return.
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
I screamed and jumped into Puck's arms. It was the last frame of our last game and I had just gotten a strike and a spare.
"Wait, hold on, look," Puck spun me around and pointed towards the tv screen.
The screen stopped flashing with the announcement of my spare and changed to the score board. I had 108 points while Puck had 92.
"I can still beat you," he said softly in my ear before pushing past me and to the ball return.
"Yeah right," I rolled my eyes and sat down to grab a drink of the water bottle Puck had bought me.
"Hey," Puck turned around and pointed at me, "You won the first game, so let me win this one. Now be quiet, I have to bowl."
I laughed at how serious he was then made a big deal out of locking my lips and tossing away the key. Puck chuckled then turned back towards the lane and took a deep breath before knocking down eight pins.
Puck spun around and wiggled his eyebrows, making me laugh again. He smiled then grabbed his ball and stood back behind the line then easily knocking down the last two pins.
"I think I've got you cornered Hudson," Puck taunted.
"Now, now Puckerman, let's just wait and see what happens," I teased back.
Puck grabbed his ball, "Here we go," he muttered under his breath.
I giggled and watched as he walked up to the line. I gasped when the ball knocked down all ten pins. He won, he really won.
Puck ran over to me and lifted me in the air while planting a kiss on my mouth. He chuckled then let me down.
"I won," he whispered.
"Just one game, I won the first one," I pouted.
"Doesn't matter, I won when you told me I wouldn't be able to," Puck said. He bent down to my level and smiled, "I am amazing and you know it, so tell it to me."
I smiled then leaned in and caught his mouth on mine, "You're amazing," I whispered against his lips.
I felt Puck smile. This was one of the best days we've had in a while.
Puck pulled away then sat on the chair so he could take his shoes off, "So, now what do you want to do? We could go out to eat or something?"
"Yeah, that's good," I said as I slipped off my shoes.
Puck chuckled as he stood up, "What sounds good? Going out to eat? Or doing something?"
"Going out to eat. You know what sounds really good?" I stood up and grabbed Puck's hand, "Pizza."
"Delicious," Puck licked his lips and passed our bowling shoes over the counter.
"Yeah, but we'll probably have to get separate pizzas since you like your's all gross and stuff," I grabbed my shoe and bent down to put it on.
"I am not gross," Puck defended himself.
"No, babe, you're not gross, your choice in food is though," I said gently.
Puck stared down at me, "Let's just share a plain pepperoni, good?"
I considered how grossed out Puck could make me with plain pepperoni pizza and figured it couldn't be that bad, "Fine."
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
"Here you go miss," Puck said as he placed two slices of pizza on the table along with two glasses of pop.
"Why thank you sir," I smiled back.
Puck sat across the table from me and grabbed one of the slices as I grabbed the other one.
"So, I was thinking we could go back to your place after this since your mom and Burt are going out and Finn's off celebrating with Rachel somewhere," Puck suggested after taking a swig of his pop.
I giggled, "I was hoping you would suggest that."
Puck laughed, "I'm psychic."
I took a bite of my pizza then some of my pop, "I knew we were going to win sectionals."
"Why wouldn't you? We were on fire and your solo in ABC totally put us over the edge," Puck said.
"Your solo was really good too," I smiled back.
Puck shrugged, "What can I say? I'm awesome."
I laughed again, "Wow, you're pretty cocky there Puckerman."
"Coming from the girl who only mentioned bowling because she can throw a strike like no other," he retorted.
I rolled my eyes, "Whatever," I said as I took another bite.
"Yeah, I guess you weren't that good tonight seeing as I beat you," Puck laughed.
I threw a pepperoni across the table and it him on the shoulder, "Shut up."
"Hey now, calm down, you did win the first game, I'll give you that," Puck said with his hands up in surrender.
"Thank you," I replied.
Puck smiled and stared at me.
"What?" I asked.
Puck just shook his head and looked down at his pizza with the same smile on his face, "Nothing."
"No, come on, tell me," I pleaded. Suddenly, a thought occurred to me, "I don't have food on my face, do I?"
Puck laughed and shook his head again, "No, you're just as beautiful as ever."
I felt the blush rise in my cheeks as a small smile formed on my face, "Then what is it?"
"You'll think I'm going soft," Puck said.
"I already think that, now come on, spill," I laughed lightly and grabbed Puck's wrist.
Puck smiled, "I was just thinking how much I love you, especially right now."
"I love you too," I said back.
Puck's smile grew. He really was the sweetest on the inside, you just had to get past the reputation and self-protection.
"Ok," Puck said after taking another sip from his pop, "How about we head back to your house and have some more fun?"
I laughed, "That sounds great."
~~~~~GLEE~~~~~
"Home-run!" Puck yelled and threw his fist in the air.
I laughed and smacked his shoulder, "You won."
"I knew playing baseball would be fun," he smiled at me.
I rolled my eyes and crawled on my boyfriend's lap. Once we had driven home, Puck had suggested playing Wii baseball and I agreed, only because I knew it would make that amazing smile form on his face.
"Now what do you have planned?" I whispered in his ear as I kissed him lightly.
"I think we might be on the same page with what's next," Puck whispered back before laying me down on the couch and holding himself carefully over me.
He softly kissed me, which I quickly returned.
Suddenly, there was a loud laugh that rang out from the basement. It sounded like Rachel's, but Finn said they were going out to celebrate.
Puck pulled off of me and sat up, "I thought they were going out like we were," he muttered.
I couldn't help but sense a little anger in his voice, definitely in his eyes. I put my hand on his cheek, "Hey, come on. Let's just go see what they're doing, then get back to us. Ok?"
Puck nodded forcefully then grabbed my hand and stood up. We walked over to the stairs and down to the basement. Rachel and Finn were sitting on his bed, just talking and laughing. It actually looked a lot like what we were doing a little bit ago.
"Hudson," Puck called.
Finn and Rachel looked up from their conversation. The smiles freezing on their faces at the sight of us.
"What are you guys doing home? I thought you guys went out bowling or something," Finn asked.
"We did, and then we went out to eat and came back here. We thought you guys went out to celebrate the win," Puck replied.
"Finn and I decided that staying home would be more fun than going out to play games or to have dinner," Rachel spoke up.
"You know what guys?" I said, "Puck and I will go back upstairs and continue what we were doing and you guys can stay here to continue what you were doing."
Rachel nodded, but Finn looked solemn.
"What are you guys going to continue?" he said as he stepped forward towards us still at the base of the stairs.
"Back off," Puck said quietly as he stood in front of me.
"Noah, Finn, let's please just all take Sarah's suggestion and go back to what we were doing," Rachel said.
"Please, I don't want another fight between you two," I said quietly as I grabbed Puck's hand to pull him back.
Puck and Finn both snapped out of their glares towards each other and looked back at me. Each of them softened and nodded.
"Come on," Puck whispered before leading me up the stairs.
I turned and looked down the stairs in time to see Rachel grab Finn around the waist and whisper in his ear. Finn nodded then sat back down on the bed, pulling Rachel down on his lap as he did so.
I smiled at the sight of them then turned back towards Puck's back as we finished walking up the stairs.
Puck fell down on the couch with a groan.
"Hey, it's ok," I said softly, "Just forget Finn, he doesn't matter."
Puck chuckled gravely, "Yeah, I know," he shook his head to clear it, "Let's get back to what we were doing before Berry rudely interrupted us."
I nodded and smiled, something Puck returned. He grabbed the back of my head and forcefully pulled me back down. His lips found mine in an instant and it felt as if he was attacking me.
"Puck," I spoke out when my mouth was free, "Stop," my breathing was hard and the force of just speaking made my lungs slightly hurt.
Puck pulled away and stared down at me, his eyes were wide and bright while his lips were a little darker pink color than usual.
"I'm sorry," he muttered as he sat up.
"No, no," I said as I followed suit, "I just wasn't expecting that. I thought we were going to wait for a while."
Puck nodded, "I'm sorry, I don't know where that came from. I was just so mad at Finn for even thinking about ruining our night that I kind of got lost in my head."
"We can keep going," I suggested, "Just maybe not so rough this time?"
Puck laughed lightly, "Of course," he said softly as he leaned forward.
The front door opened and Kurt and Blaine walked through. They were both laughing at whatever they were talking about. Puck groaned and sat up as I bit my lip.
"Oh, we're sorry," Blaine said when they noticed us.
"We'll just go to our bedroom," Kurt added.
"Don't bother," I said.
Puck shook his head, "Yeah, Finn and Rachel are already down there."
"Look's like we've got a party then," Blaine smiled.
At that time, Finn and Rachel came through the basement door.
"Hey," Finn greeted us all.
"Hello everybody," Rachel smiled.
The two of them sat on the chair across from me and Puck while Kurt and Blaine took the love seat. We all stared at each other, not really knowing what to say after the past few days. Sure we had won sectionals, but the possible baby thing had kinda screwed us all up. I was back home though, Puck only let me stay one more night after the first one. His excuse being everything that he had told me in the car.
"Fun," Puck said sarcastically next to me.
I giggled and Puck flashed me a smile.
"So what did everyone else do today?" Kurt asked, "Blaine and I went out to eat at Breadsticks and saw a movie."
"Rachel and I stayed here and just hung out," Finn said quietly.
Rachel nodded, "It was a lot of fun, just the two of us here alone."
"Sarah and I went bowling, had pizza, then came back here," Puck told everyone, "Of course I won."
I hit him upside the head, "Just the second game!" I scolded, "I won the first one," I said to everyone else.
A suspicious smile formed on Blaine's face, "So you won the first one, by how much?"
I just stared at him like he was crazy, "Like 30," I said slowly.
"And how much did Puck win by the second game?" Blaine prodded.
I thought about the question, "Around 20 maybe, I don't remember. Why does this matter?"
"You let Puck win!" Blaine announced.
"What?" Puck yelled. He turned me towards him, "You let me win?"
"I did not," I yelled back.
Puck raised his eyebrows and everyone laughed. I could feel the blood rush to my cheeks, I sort of did let him win.
"Fine, I didn't try as hard the second round, but I honestly didn't think you would win," I gave in.
"So I won out of pity?" Puck asked.
"No, I just didn't feel like playing as hard as the first game. I got what I wanted then you got what you wanted, it was fair," I pleaded.
Puck stared at me for a minute. Everyone was quiet except for a few snickers as we watched the football player contemplate what I just said.
"I will let you off the hook," Puck started, "If we go bowling over winter break and you play fair and square. Playing as hard as you can and not going easy on me," he stuck his hand out.
I looked down at it and laughed a little at what we were doing, "Ok, I'll play fair and square next time," I slipped my hand into his and shook it.
Puck pulled me onto his lap and kissed me.
"Alright, who's ready to do something else?" Finn said.
I pulled away, "We're going to the basement. Puck will leave when Mom and Burt get here or when Blaine and Rachel leave," I grabbed Puck's hand and stood up, "Come on," I said as I led him to the basement.

A/N: A much needed happy chapter after the last few. Anyone have any ideas what Puck and Sarah should get each other for Christmas? I'm at a loss. Also, anybody have a chapter request that they would like to happen? I kind of need some more ideas since I want this to last throughout the school year. PLEASE REVIEW with any questions, comments, or concerns.
