Sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes.

Over the next two weeks, Puck kept dropping subtle hints of his attraction to Rachel. He made sure his hand brushed hers everytime he handed her a sheet of paper or he would smile at her with an adoring look in his eyes. All of this was unnoticed by Rachel as her paranoia about the whole Finn situation grew.

She knew Finn liked her, but lately, he's become sort of like her own personal stalker; almost like Jacob Ben Israel. He would often be waiting at her locker at every passing period and he would talk and talk the whole time while Rachel rummaged through her locker, looking for a textbook or an extra pencil on most test days. Rachel did not want to hear nor care about what Finn had to say. The fact that he thought that she cared creeped her out even more. Didn't he have a girlfriend of his own that he can vent to?

The creepiest part of it all was that whenever they sang in glee together, he had this look of possession as he looked at her; as if Rachel was Finn's personal property. She would just ignore it and carry on singing.

Puck had noticed this, too. The look in his eye when they sang: he didn't like it. He needed to find a way to make Rachel his, and fast, too.

That particular day just happened to be a Friday, and since Puck actually bothered to show up at class that day, he had learned that there was a science project due in three weeks on DNA, or something like that, he wasn't really listening, just tuning in to parts of the explanation.

Anyway, he had the perfect plan: he would ask Rachel to help him with his project. Then at her house, he'll make his move. Simple enough. He leaned back in his chair, hands behind his head, smirk spread across his lips. He didn't bother to listen to the rest of the lecture.

When the school day ended, Puck caught up to Rachel in the hallway.

"Hey, Rach!" he exclaimed, that same mischievous grin he had in science class.

"Hey, Noah, can I have a ride home?" Rachel knew it was random to ask this, but she really liked Puck and she wanted to spend as much time as possible with him.

Puck laughed on the inside; this was going to be too easy!

"Yeah, sure. Let's go," he answered, grabbing her hand, interlocking their fingers, and guiding her out to the parking lot. Rachel, finally starting to notice the hints of affection yesterday, smiled at this action.

When Puck pulled up to their houses, (remember they're neighbors) he unbuckled his seatbelt and turned to look into Rachel's beautiful brown eyes and said,

"Rach, can you help me with my science project?" Rachel felt confusion sweep across her face, just for a moment. Worrying about a science project the first day it's assigned was very unlike Puck, so she played along and replied,

"Yeah sure we can go up to my room. My dads are out of town until next Sunday," She grabbed her bag and got out of the car. She was joined by Puck two seconds later and they walked into the house.

When the two got up to Rachel's room, Puck dropped his backpack on her bed after taking out his science book, then dropped his butt to the floor.

Rachel was still standing in the doorway, ogling Puck. She had always thought he was hot, and when she caught a glimpse of his boxers when sat on the floor, it did not make matters any better. He had noticed, and was smirking on the inside.

"Like the view?" Puck's smirk had found its way onto his lips by now. Rachel snapped out of her daze and replied, a little too quickly I might add,

"Don't be silly, Noah. I thought I saw a spider on your leg," she mentally struck herself for her lame excuse for staring at Puck.

"Yeah, sure," Puck muttered. He then added louder, "Well, are just going to stand there all night, or are you going to help me with my project?" Rachel slipped further into the room and plopped down next to Puck.

Rachel then started a long rant on how this project was important and that he should really stay focused, but he couldn't. He was too busy staring at her while she talked. He loved how she brushed her hair behind her hair when she got a little uncomfortable sometimes. He noted that sparkle that showed in her eyes when she knew she was right.

He was imagining how he would feel with the girl's body wrapped around his when Rachel slapped him.

"Noah? Noah, are you even listening to me?" she had furrowed her brow in frustration. Puck thought it was adorable.

"What? Yeah, I'm listening," he replied, confident that she would believe him. She continued to stare him down until he gave in, "No, I wasn't listening, sorry." he dropped his face in fake shame.

"Ugh..." the room was silent after that.

Puck could bare it no longer after only a minute and made his move. He hand cupped her cheeked and he leaned down to give her a chaste kiss that even he admitted was longer than necessary. When they pulled away, Rachel put on the best pokerface she could. It frustrated Puck that he couldn't read her face, which was exactly the reaction she wanted.

"What was that for?" Rachel asked after a few more moments of silence, trying her best not to crack into her famous megawatt smile.

"I really, really like you, Rach. I lied. I never got rid of my feelings for you. Seeing you being stalked by Finn these past few weeks made them grow stronger. I know I hurt you in the past, but I want to try being a couple? Do you think we could make this work?" Puck let the truth out. If Rachel's happiness and relief wasn't showing on her face a second ago, it sure was now. She then crashed her lips onto his hungrily and they kissed for a few minutes. The two pulled away, in need of oxygen.

"I'll take that as a yes," Puck grinned from ear to ear.

"It sure as hell means yes!" Rachel exclaimed.

Rachel once again latched her lips onto his, but this time it was more passionate. Puck then proceded to deepen the kiss by slipping his tongue into Rachel's mouth. Rachel was beyond ecstatic, laying there, making out with her best friend/new boyfriend, their tongues both battling for dominance in each other's mouths. She suddenly felt that her life was complete now that the boy she loved had wanted to be with her.

One heated makeout session later, Puck and Rachel were still laying on the floor, but now Puck had his hands wrapped around his girl, her head resting on his chest, right where they both wanted to be: in each other's arms.

"I've always wanted to do that," Rachel muttered, breaking the silence. Puck chuckled and kissed the top of her head.

Okay I desperately tried to make this chapter longer, sort of succeeding. However, I noticed that the only characters that I've really used so far are Puck, Rachel, and Finn, but don't fret, I plan to bring other characters into this story. I'm not exactly sure when, but they'll definitely be there sometime in the future.
