Chapter 2: Close Encounters with the Jock Kind
...
Kurt's breath caught in his throat and he froze.
"What are you doing in here?" Puck asked incredulously.
Kurt did his best to swallow the lump in his throat. "It's a bathroom. People often tend to frequent them." Kurt tried to hide his anxiety behind his usual sarcastic, bitchy-bravado.
Puck didn't respond for a while, he just continued to look at the shorter teen, before he stepped closer. "I'm sorry, Hummel, but do I sense sarcasm?" Puck's tone grew more serious and just a little threatening.
This was not an unfamiliar situation for Kurt, he had been here with Puck many times before and although he may have still feared the pummeling that the larger boy could easily deliver, he surely was not going to show it. Besides, this sudden confrontation was a good distraction from the craziness that had begun raging inside him. So, Kurt scoffed at Puck's question and continued on, "Good job, Puckerman." Kurt smiled on the inside at his use of Noah's last name, two could play that game. "I'm glad to see that all the time's you've been tackled on the field have not completely ridden you of all sense of brain power."
Puck's jaw grew tighter and Kurt noticed his hands flinch, as if he were fighting the urge to form fists, but there was something off about him today. As Puck stepped even closer Kurt noticed that while his body, his hard, perfect body, may have been tense, there was something in his eyes that eased the fear Kurt had been feeling. And suddenly, the corners of Puck's mouth turned up into a smirk.
Kurt eyed him suspiciously, "Something funny?" He crossed his arms and arched a brow to reinforce his question. Puck just shrugged and continued approaching Kurt, causing Kurt's posture to falter and he took a step back away from the jock who was now looming over him, "Seriously, Noah, what are you doing?" Kurt didn't like this, he felt trapped (and considering the fact that as he stepped back again his backside collided with the sink, he realized he was).
Soon enough Puck had almost completely closed the gap between them, so much so that Kurt could feel the heat radiating from Puck and his nose no longer burned from the putrid smells that clung to the surfaces in the restroom; no, now his senses were overwhelmed by the masculine mix of Axe and Noah. Kurt's breath caught again and his eyes closed for a moment as the power of the situation overwhelmed him.
He didn't like this game.
Kurt took a breath, his eyes staying closed, and his bodying tensed, "Just do it." Kurt said through clenched teeth as he awaited the beating that seemed to be inevitable.
"Do what?" By now Puck had leaned forward and the warmth of his breath that accompanied his words grazed the soft skin of Kurt's cheek.
Kurt did not have to open his eyes to see the grin that without a doubt was paired with Puck's question. He could see it clearly in his mind; it was arrogant, condescending, and domineering.
"You know something, Hummel," Puck whispered his breath still coming hot and fast on Kurt's skin, his words seeping into his ears. Kurt shook his head and slowly opened his eyes to face the bully. He was surprised to see how just close Puck was to him, he could still feel the heat that emanated from him, but to actually see him...see him so close, close enough to touch; it was almost unbearable for Kurt.
Puck's grin was still as confident and strong as ever and he leaned even closer, to the point that his lips were almost pressed to Kurt's ear, "You're so easy." The words flowed effortlessly from his lips, once again overwhelming Kurt. The jock did not fail to notice this and he let loose a melodious and taunting laugh before he turned and exited the bathroom.
For the first time since Puck had entered the bathroom Kurt could finally breathe, really breathe and he let out a long breath. A soft tremor ran over his body as he recalled what had just happen and then with a wave of great confusion he thought aloud, "What the hell was that?"

Author's Note: Okay, so I know that was really, really short, but think of it just as a continuance of the first chapter and I promise I will more than make up for it with the coming chapters. I just wanted something that short, sweet, and left Kurt breathless and I think I finally know where I want to take this story. I see it coming together nicely. I hope you guys will stick with me. And please, read and review. This is my first Glee fix and I really want to hear feedback, I am still kind of new to the characters and if you guys think I am not being true to them, then let me know. Thanks. Next chapter coming soon!!
