Chapter 10:

Puck was driving, he was feeling like he was doing something awful but had no other choice.

"Why don't you turn the music on to sing as usual ?" Sarah asked from the back seat.

"Because I'm thinking squirt." Puck answered.

"It's boring when you think ! Stop thinking and turn the music on already !"

"Listen squirt, today stay away from D okay ?" Puck told his sister;

"Why ?" Sarah asked.

"It's a game, you try to hide from him the whole day and if he hasn't seen you when you leave you've won." Puck explained.

"That's a cool game !" The little girl said enthusiastically as Puck parked his truck in front of the Karofsky's house. Sarah quickly unlocked her seat belt and ran towards the house. Puck knocked at the door.

"Hi Noah how are you ?" Anne asked.

"Hi Anne, is David here ?" He asked casually.

"He's gone walking." She answered.

"Okay, I'll try to find him then, I gotta talk to him about something for football." Puck explained quickly. The point was to talk to Karofsky the longer for him not to see Sarah. The best in all this was that Karofsky was likely to be at the shed with Kurt so he would see the boy with his bare eyes. Puck had no idea why but he felt the need to see him, he knew he was doing somewhat well but talking to him through the door was really frustrating.

When he reached the shed the door was open so Puck increased his pace to reach it. When he was at the door he found Kurt sitting on the bed looking at the floor with blank eyes while Karofsky was sitting very close to him talking. Kurt turned his head when he saw Puck and so did Karofsky.

"Puckerman what the fuck are you doing here ? Get the hell out of here now !" The jock said grabbing the bat before going out of the shed and closing the door.

"Let me see him Karofsky." Puck demanded surprisingly calmly.

"What ?"

"Let me see Kurt." Puck asked again.

"You're not seeing him now go away !" Karofsky shouted before shoving him away.

"You're fuckin letting me see him !" Puck shouted struggling to make his way to the door.

"You really want another encounter with my baseball bat Puckerman ?" Karofsky threatened brandishing the bat.

"What's your point Karofsky ? You know you won't be able to keep him in here for ever."

"I don't care I have him now that's all that matters."

"He'll never be yours David, he'll never love you ! He just hates you more each day he spends in here. He'd be grateful to you if you released him, he could even help you to come-out." Puck tried to reason the jock with great words.

"He'd hate me if I released him." Karofsky stated.

"Not as much as he hates you now."

"What do you want Puckerman, why d'you do that ? You want him as well don't you ? That's why you act like a knight in shinning armor. But he'll never be yours !" Karofsky said he really looked like a psycho now.

"Fuck you Karofsky ! Let me see him already then I'll go." Puck said.

"Not a chance Puckerman I am the one with a bat here and I won't hesitate to use it."

"You can leave Puck I'm going to be okay." Kurt said from behind the door. Puck looked at the door and sighed.

"You heard him ? Now fuck off he doesn't want to see you." Puck surrendered.

"Fine. But you're not going away with that Karofsky !" Puck said pointing at the jock.

"Au revoir ?" Puck heard from behind the door.

"Au revoir Kurt." Puck said to let the boy know he would be back at night time.

"And stop fuckin' talking Spanish or German or I don't know what !" Karofsky yelled pissed off as Puck walked away.

When at home Puck was really angry, he grabbed his phone and called the only person who knew about everything.

"Hi ?"

"It's Puck."

"Oh, have you got news from Kurt ? Have you seen him ?"

"I almost saw him today but Karofsky was there and he fuckin' beat him up yesterday !" Puck said pissed off.

"How's Kurt doing ?" Blaine asked concerned.

"When I talked to him he sounded alright but he'd be able to say that just for me not to worry." Puck said bitterly.

"It's weird, you look very close to each other." Blaine stated .

"Why is it weird ?"

"Well, don't be offended but Kurt and I have talked a lot and he never mentioned you, plus he told me that he didn't talk much to straight guys because of something his brother told him."

"Wait, what did Finn tell him ?" Puck asked.

"Something like he should not get close to straight guys because he made them uncomfortable and could ruin their reputation." Blaine explained.

"That's bullshit ! Kurt never made me uncomfortable !" Puck said outraged.

"I know but it's what Finn said and Kurt feels bad about that."

" I'm so gonna kill the guy !" Puck said.

"You really care about him." Blaine stated.

"Of course I do !" Puck answered still thinking of what he was going to tell Finn.

"I mean going to see him every night and talk to him that's... I don't know if Finn would do the same even though he's his brother."

"That's because Finn is an asshole." Puck said.

"Haven't you thought that maybe..." Blaine trailed off.

"Maybe what ? I can't read inside your head you know."

"Maybe you feel more that friendship for him." Blaine said embarrassed.

"Look, as much as I care for Kurt I'm all straight so thanks a lot but no." Puck answered.

"Alright I just tried. I gotta go."

"Alright, see ya." Puck said.

"Yeah bye." And they hung up.

After that Puck decided to rest a little, he laid on his bed and thought about all this. He had no way to free his friend without endangering him or his sister. Karofsky was such a coward to threaten a little girl. Thinking back, Puck realized that the guy had always been a coward, back in elementary school he bullied the kids of kindergarten when Puck was bullying... well, Hummel.

Oh Gosh, how did I dare hurting him ? He asked to himself. The therapist he had been forced to see had said that it was linked to his lack of dad. Something like he needed to show masculinity since there was none at home. But that was bullshit, that didn't excuse the fact that he had been bullying a guy weaker than him (physically weaker, because mentally he overcame everyone), a guy who never asked for nothing more than being himself. He had been so much of a jerk to him. And Kurt was there, talking to him every night, telling him some deep secrets no one knew about. Puck would have never forgiven the guy if someone had been picking on him for his whole life, that was for sure. But Kurt was different, he saw the good side of people, Puck was even sure that he saw a good side in Karofsky. A shiver ran down Puck's spine when he remembered how close was Karofsky to Kurt in the shed that morning. Maybe what had made Kurt cry the day before was more than a kiss. Maybe Karofsky was a filthy perv who touched Kurt and forced Kurt to touch him and... Like the first time Puck had learned for Kurt's kidnapping, a lot of images popped in his head, but they were much more realistic since the perv's face was not a blur anymore. He pictured the jock touching Kurt while Kurt was trying hard not to cry. He pictured Karofsky staining Kurt's soft skin with his dirty hands. But Kurt deserved to discover those things with someone he cared for and who cared for him. Someone like Blaine who could take good care of him.

But once again, the idea that Blaine already had someone else came in his mind. There was no one else to take care of Kurt in that way because the only other gay guy they knew was his kidnapper. And there was no way Kurt would deliberately touch him with a laser point. So he would have to wait until College to find someone like him who cared for him. That was a year and a half from now. A life time. But then he could finally find someone who would not be afraid of touching him and kissing him, who would take care of him like no one had ever done before.

Apart from Puck of course. No one cared for Kurt like Puck did because it was his mission to protect him. And he really wanted to fulfill this mission perfectly. That was normal after all. Blaine had asked him if he didn't feel more than friendship for Kurt, and yeah there was something else but it was something protective like he was his little brother or something, the need to see him and to check on him, hearing only his voice was far too frustrating. He tried to picture how weird it would be to kiss him,if it would be so different from kissing a girl. After all he had pretty lips and a soft skin, he had seen that when they had slept together in the shed. His hand was really soft on his abs. It had even felt good, after all the shit they had been through to feel Kurt cuddling against him. The scene appeared in his head of Kurt over him, stroking his chest slowly while kissing him. Far from being awkward the scene looked pleasant. Too pleasant, considering the hard-on he was having.

"Wow, wow, calm down Puck. This is only because you've spent a lot of time with him recently. Nothing more. You could not even jerk off thinking of him this is just a mistake." But then, while he was jerking off picturing Santana and Britanny making-out, all that came in his mind was him in different positions. And, it killed Puck to admit it but he did have a mind-blowing orgasm.
