Chapter Eleven

Puck was sitting in Rachel's room as she showered. He had no idea what he was going to do about Danni or Carolina. Truth be told, he knew that the only was he could truly have a chance with Danni was if Carolina was out of the picture. He knew Carolina would stop at nothing to get with him again. She always had been like that. As children, Carolina had followed Puck around and made every excuse to be with him.

"Noah, can I ask you something?"

"Sure Rach, shoot!"

"What would you do if your father came back to Lima?"

Puck felt his face turn red and had the sudden need to punch something. "FUCK BERRY! Why would you ask that?"

"It's just a question. It's just something Danni was talking about today. You don't talk about him much so—"

"Why the fuck would Thomas talk about my father? She has no right to talk about him especially when her mother isn't much better than Eli. In fact, why don't you tell Thomas to shut her big mouth up and leave my family out of her conversations!"

Puck stood up quickly and stormed out the door. He needed to get some air so he ran to Rachel's backyard and sat on one of her lawn chairs.

"Noah." Puck turned around to find Rachel in a little pink towel, dripping water all over the ground. "I didn't mean to upset you. It's just, I have a weird feeling your father is going to pop up this summer. Please don't ask me to say anything else. Just trust me."

"I'm sorry Rach." Puck took the petite girl into his arms and held on tight. "You know that you're naked under that towel and I'm sorta turned on. We could have a quickie in the hot tub before the guests arrive." Rachel looked up at her best friend and laughed.

"You know if you're not careful, I might start thinking you're hitting on me." She turned around and headed into the house. She glanced behind her and looked Noah straight in the eyes. "Noah, I am always here for you. Forever."

"And always. I know Berry. Now get dressed and let's get this party started."

Danni hadn't worn a real swimsuit in years. Finn refused to go into the water without a shirt and she had promised him years ago that she would wear shorts and a tank top so he didn't feel like such a dork. Now she stood in front of the mirror in a black bikini with gold buttons and she felt naked. "Maybe I should just wear shorts and a tank top like normal."

"Come out here and let us see it!" Kurt, Finn, and Carolina were all sitting on Kurt's bed. Kurt turned to Finn. "I helped her pick it out but she refused to try it on at the store. Get your butt out her Danni and let us see it before you decided to put the shorts on. I blame Finn for your insecurities! Why couldn't you just do shirtless at the pool Hudson?"

Danni laughed to herself before she opened the door and walked into the gray bedroom. The three sitting in front of her all had different looks on their face. Kurt smiled brightly while both Carolina and Finn looked beyond surprised.

"Oh Sara Bareilles, you look awesome! I told you this would look perfect on you. Doesn't she look amazing you guys?"

Finn was speechless. He had always seen Danni as his little sister, but it was hard not to realize just how hot she was in the swimsuit. He had never seen her in a swimsuit and he was now upset that he had forced her to wear clothes while swimming for so long. "You look awesome Danni."

Carolina quickly got up and headed to the bathroom. "God you guys act as if you've never seen a chick in a bathing suit before. I'm gonna head into the shower."

Carolina took a deep breath before stepping into the shower. There was no way to deny it; her sister looked sexy in the swimsuit. Damn her and her new gay sidekick. If it wasn't for Kurt, Danni would be wearing some black shorts and a lime green tank in the hot tube tonight and she could have worn her little bikini and got all of Puck's attention. Now, she was fucked! The three swimsuits she had were worn out and two of them were one piece. There was no way her yellow and blue stripped bikini from PINK would outshine the stupid swimsuit Danni had. Fuck her! Why did she have to choice now to look sexy? Well Carolina knew the reason…Puckerman! It was in that moment that Carolina decided to sit this one out and try again another night.

"I think I'm gonna stay home tonight," Carolina declared as she got out of the shower.

"Why sis? It's going to be so much fun!"

"Dad mentioned calling tonight and I want to be here when he calls."

Danni looked at her sister for a moment before deciding to let the topic go. "Okay, we'll see you later." And with that, the three teen headed downstairs.

Mike hadn't been able to hang out with his girlfriend alone in weeks. Either they were at some Glee party, or with their parents. So when he got to leave work early and then found out that his parents would be gone for the night, he decided to skip Rachel's party and invite Tina over for some alone time. Just as he was about to start his wok he received a text. Mikey, I need someone to talk to. Can I come over? –Car

Mike wanted nothing more than to say no. This was meant to be his night with Tina. But he wasn't a half ass friend. Of course. Come over any time.

Puck had just finished making the famous Berry Family Fruit Punch when he heard a knock at the front door. Rachel was still picking out an outfit so he decided to let whomever it was in. As he opened to front door, a huge lump formed in his throat. In front of him was Danni in a black bikini top and a pair of jean shorts. A hundred and ten dirty things popped into his head at once and suddenly his swim trunks felt a little too small. He had known Danni for years and he hadn't seen her in a swimsuit since before puberty. Normally she wore some shorts and a shirt in the pool, but now he could see everything. Her long legs, her flat stomach, her shoulder blades. He hadn't seen some much of her since the night he slept with her and even then, it had been dark.

"You gonna let us in Puckerman?" Finn as obviously annoyed by Pucks inappropriate staring.

"Yeah, come on in. I was about the start making some fruit salad Berry asked me to make. She's upstairs getting dressed. She said you guys were welcome to start slicing veggies or starting up the grill. She bought burgers and hotdogs for everyone and said Finn wanted to cookout so that's all you dude." And with that Finn headed to the back yard.

"I'm gonna go help Barbara find the right outfit. You two can start slicing veggies or whatever drama queen wanted you to do. Be right back." Kurt glanced at the two left in the kitchen and smiled before heading upstairs.

Puck stood at the opposite end to the kitchen and watched as Danni grabbed the veggies out of the frig. She turned and smile, but Puck seemed to have forgotten how to smile. As she sliced, he just watched her. She had always been beautiful to him, but it wasn't until now that he realized just how flawless she was. The clothes she wore did her body no justice. All Puck wanted to do was lift her up and carry her to the nearest bedroom and show her how turned on he was, but he couldn't move.

"Are you okay Noah?" Danni realized that he hadn't said anything to her since she got to Rachel's and now he just stood there, not even moving. Did she do something wrong?

"Um, yeah. I'm good. How are you?"

"I'm fine. Just peachy." Danni turned around to face Noah and slowly walked toward him. "So, what did you do all day?"

"You look gorgeous!"

Danni smiled before turning back to the counter and starting cutting veggies again. Puck walked up behind her and ran his hand down her arm. He then ran his other one down her back before kissing her neck. He could smell the faint scent of vanilla on Danni's skin. He took the knife out of her hand and set it on the cutting board before turning her around. He looked into her eyes and realized they were dark with lust. He pulled her to him and smashed his lips on hers. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him passionately. Soon, their tongues are exploring each other's mouths and their hands were roaming their bodies. Suddenly, Puck grabbed Danni's legs and sat her on the counter before attacking her neck. He sucked softly on her pulse spot and ran his hands threw her hair while she ran her nails down his arms.

"Get a room people!"

Danni and Puck jumped and turned around to find Blaine standing in the kitchen.

"Did I spoil the mood? Shit sorry. Where is my sexy boyfriend?"

Danni tried fixing her hair and jumped off the counter. "Up stairs with Rach."

As Blaine headed upstairs, Danni turned to Puck and smiled. Puck walked over to her and touched her face. "Danni Lynn, I love you."

Suddenly the smile left her face. "You shouldn't have said that."

"But it's true. I have loved you since I was a little boy. I have loved you since that time on the swings at camp when you held my hand and told me I was your perfect match. I have never been surer of anything in my life."

"Noah, Eli will be in a few days. He's heading to Lima with my dad and mother. I'm so sorry."

"Dude, you have two horny teenagers going at it in your kitchen." Blaine walked in to find Rachel wearing a yellow swimsuit and Kurt in Bongo swim trunks.

"Danni and Puck?"

"Nope, Finn and Puck. Said something about how they can't hide it anymore. Weird part is Danni is standing here recording the whole thing. I'm guessing it will go viral by the end of the night."

"Not only sexy but funny too. Oh Blaine, you are the whole package. Don't let him go Kurt."

Kurt gave Blaine a quick kiss before grabbing a comb and fixing his hair. Suddenly there was a knock on Rachel's door.

"Rachel quick! Puck is throwing stuff in your kitchen."

Rachel opened her door to find Finn standing at the other end. He grabbed Rachel's arm and pulled her down the stairs. Kurt and Blaine followed. As they all walked into the kitchen, they saw Danni curled up in the corner and Puck throwing plates, cups, and food all over the place.

"YOU KNEW MY FATHER WAS COMING AND YOU PICK NOW TO TELL ME!" Puck screamed as he threw a glass at the counter.

"Noah, I'm sorry. I didn't know how to—"

"HOW ABOUT 'HEY PUCKERMAN, REMEMBER YOUR BASTARD FATHER? HE'S COMING INTO TOWN WITH MY CUNT OF A MOTHER!"

"DON'T YOU DARE CALL MY MOTHER NAMES!"

"REALLY? BECAUSE I HAVE HEARD YOU CALL HER SIMILAR THINGS."

Rachel took a step in front of Noah, hoping to calm him down. "Noah, let's go get some fresh air."

"SHUT THE FUCK UP BERRY! YOU KNEW TOO AND YOU COULDN'T TELL ME! 'OH NOAH I HAVE A FEELING YOUR FATHER IS GONNA POP UP THIS SUMMER. THAT'S WHAT YOU THIS AFTERNOON, ISN'T IT? YOU ALL WERE IN ON IT, WEREN'T YOU! WELL FUCK YOU ALL THEN. I GONE." Puck threw the pitcher of punch he had just made on the floor and stormed out of the house.

Rachel looked down at the girl crying on the floor. "Come on Danni, let's get upstairs and wash you up." As Danni stood up, the other's in the room let out a gasp of horror. On her arm was a huge gash.

Finn ran over to her and put a towel on the cut. "Did he do that?"

"No Finn. He started yelling and throwing things. I freaked out and fell to the ground. I must have fallen on some glass."

"Well, it's going to be okay." Rachel grabbed Danni's arm and helped her up. "Let's get you cleaned up."
