Lovers Next Door

Chapter Three

It was late in the afternoon and by that time the guys are at the deck talking, laughing, eating and some reading. The rain had stopped a few minutes ago leaving the weather as cold and comfortable as ever. This is one thing that all these boys like. Their attentions suddenly lifted to an opening door at Rachel's household. Three girls went out followed by Rachel. They heard them exchanging their hugs, goodbyes and text you laters. They saw the tall blonde discussing something with Rachel as the other two girls hopped on the car. Rachel smiled, nodded and hugged the blonde as she also hopped on the car. The red car drove off and Rachel also went inside her house leaving the guys sign in disappointment.

That night Puck was at the kitchen doing something the dudes have never expect him to do.

[Puck's POV]

"Hey dude. What's cooking?" Sam asked. I can see confusion in his face

"You know, some usual vegan cupcakes, dudes. Just a little welcome treat to our new lovely neighbor." I replied and smirked

"Oooh I smell something!" Mike teased as he and Finn entered the kitchen

"Well obviously you can smell something, dude. Puck's cooking some cupcakes."

"Not that Finn! It's something else."

"Really? What else is cooking?"

"Is this guy really taking medicine as a course? Or maybe taking medicine as supplement? Maybe his high or overdosed!" I chuckled as I whispered to Mike and Sam

"Dude, never mind!" Sam ended and I saw Finn pout. What a baby!

"Well, I'll just give these babies to a hottie, dudes. Be right back." I smiled as I finished plating the cupcakes

I saw the guys hurriedly ran upstairs. Oh my bros! They are so supportive. I just laughed at my thoughts realizing that I am standing at Rachel's doorway facing the wooden pavement. Well, here goes nothing. I knocked, twice. And I'm surprised to see that it's not Rachel who opened the door. I'm sure the guys are too and I absolutely guessed right that Finn shouted by the time this door opened.

"May I help you?" the girl raised a brow, arms crossed and leaned against the door frame

"Uh hi... Good evening. Are you the owner of this house?" I asked politely

"Well actually, I'm not but I'm the friend of the owner. Why?"

"Erm, cos as a welcome to new neighbors... I... I baked these vegan cupcakes." I smiled nervously

I saw the girl smile too. Looks like I'm doing good. "Nice, some treats! Thank you... um.. what's your name?"

"Oh. I'm Puck, just ... Puck."

She laughed a bit "Hi Puck, I'm Santana, Rachel's friend. Oh and in case you might have to know Rachel Berry is the owner of this house."

"Great. Thanks!"

"Oh how rude of me, come in first."

"No. Um, actually I really have to go tho."

"No! You literally have to meet the owner." She turned her back and "Rachel! Come here for a sec." She called

Then I was just speechless and mesmerized by the short brunette walking towards the doorway in her peach night gown. She totally looks like an angel sent from above. She's such a pretty hot little lady!

"Rach, this is Puck your neighbor." I hear Santana spoke and smiled "He even made your favorite vegan cupcakes for a welcome treat."

"Oh that's so sweet of you! Nice to meet you Puck. I'm Rachel by the way. Thank you for these tho and you didn't really have to." She smiled

"Yeah I know you... - I mean nice to meet you too, Rachel. And hey, that's not a prob. I always do that when I have new neighbors. It's like a tradition!" I smiled cheekily

"Aw that's so sweet."

"Hey thanks! Well, I better get going. Nice to meet you Rachel and Santana."

"No prob, Puck. Nice meeting you too." Santana smiled

"Yeah. Well if you girls need me, my house is right in front so.. don't be shy." I felt it! I blushed

"Sure and thank you, Puck. You're so sweet!" Rachel said

"Yeah, no problem. I hope you girl like the cupcakes ."

"Sure we will. Thanks again Puck."

And by that, I was just so happy that I met Rachel and vise versa.

"Dude, you met Latina hottie!" Finn pouted. Again he is such a baby.

"Yeah and no need to pout bro. I got her name. It's Santana." I nudged the tall dude's shoulder teasingly

"Really?! YES! Thank you so much dude."

Glad to see Finn is happy the way that I am too.
