Chapter 12:
After the 'gay incident'. Puck considered not going to see Kurt that night. All this was really fucked up. His head was a mess. It was not just that, well this was the icing on the cake. But there was also the things the Blaine dude had said, of course he cared for Kurt, the boy was prisoner in some shed in the forest, like a princess, wait, what ? Puck shook this thought out of his head. So, yes he cared for Kurt but who wouldn't in his situation ? And maybe he cared more than Finn would but Finn had never really liked the boy. But neither did Puck, at least, before all that.
"Fuck !" He said out loud although he was alone. He grabbed his phone and called Finn.
"Puck ? You got news of Kurt ? " Finn asked.
"You're an asshole you know that ?"
"What the hell ?" Finn asked not understanding anything.
"Is it true that you said to Kurt that he shouldn't hang around straight guys ?" Puck asked already knowing the answer.
"Why do you care ?"
"Why do I care ? He's your fuckin' brother ! How can you say that to him ?"
"I know it sounds bad but it's true okay ? You never had him around you, you don't know what it is." Finn stated and it achieved to irritate Puck.
"I already had him around and he's a cool dude Finn ! Everyone's not as homophobic as you are !"
"What ? Kurt already had a crush on you ?" Finn asked.
"How can you be so fuckin' narrow-minded ? Kurt didn't need to have a crush on me to talk to me ! And even if he had a crush on me he'd never make me uncomfortable !"
"How have you known about that anyway ?" Finn asked trying to deflect the subject.
"A friend of his told me." Puck said coldly.
"Which friend ?"
"Blaine, the guy from Dalton academy."
"You went to see Blaine ?" Finn asked incredulous.
"Yes because apparently you didn't think he should know about what's happening." Puck answered sharply.
"I just didn't think of him he's not that important."
"He's really important for Kurt even if you don't care about him he's your brother and I'm sure you knew he had feelings for Blaine." Puck said.
"How did you know all of this ?"
"It doesn't matter how I knew, all that matters is that now Blaine knows and he'll let us know if he's got something about Kurt. He's suspicious towards Karofsky by the way." Puck said again to lead his dumb of ex best friend in the good direction.
"It's not him, we already erased him from the list."
"Don't you think that if Kurt told this guy about Karofsky it might be more serious than just bullying ?" Puck asked.
"I don't know... I'll go and ask him again."
"Don't tell him it's me who told you, his mother looks after my sister I don't want him to be mad at me."
"Okay dude."
"And when Kurt'll be back treat him better, he doesn't deserve what you do to him." Puck said before hanging up.
At night time, Puck resolved to go see Kurt. He was nervous about seeing him. Well, it would be more like talking to him but it was the same. Puck had never had any doubts concerning his sexuality, he had always been all straight, had had sex with tens of girls and had never found a dude attractive. Picturing the gay kid while he was getting off was all kinds of wrong.
But Kurt was for nothing in it. Okay, he was the one who had been rubbing his chest, and it felt really good. Puck shook his head. So, yeah he had been the one rubbing his chest but he was sleeping and didn't know who he was cuddling against. He had thought it was Blaine but Blaine didn't want him. This fact made Puck sad, the boy was detained by a jock psycho and the only person that could comfort him after that trauma didn't want him. And the only peopld who had dirty thoughts about him were a psycho and someone he didn't even consider as a friend.
" I talked to Blaine." Puck stated before even knocking at the door to indicate he was there.
"What ?" Kurt asked and Puck heard him coming at the door and sitting behind it.
"He really cares about you and his friend Will seems to care too." Puck said.
"It's Wes, why did you go and find him ? I didn't ask you to." Kurt said, he didn't sound upset.
"He seems important to you and I thought that he'd like to know what's going on. No one had told him."
"How did he react ?" Kurt asked and Puck felt bad at hearing how hopeful Kurt was.
"He's worried. I told him everything."
"Wait, everything ? What do you mean by everything ?" Kurt asked panicked.
"Chill out, I just told him that I knew that you were okay and that I talked to you everyday. I didn't tell him anything about your wet dreams for him if that's what worries you." Puck said smirking.
"They're not wet dreams !" Kurt scowled. "Puck what was that this morning ? You can't come here during the day !"
" I had just dropped Sarah at his house, I wanted to get him occupied while she was there. But I only succeeded in getting him angry." Puck said. "Did he harm you after that ?"
"No he didn't, he was glad to see that I had told you to leave, he spent the next hour insulting you." Kurt explained.
"Good." Puck answered. He craved to see the boy, to see if he was okay and to talk to him face to face. "You're really alright right ?"
"Yes Puck I'm not hurt."
"Did he try to kiss you again ?" Puck asked, because the mere idea of Karofsky kissing Kurt disgusted him deeply.
"He always kisses me before leaving but that's all." Kurt answered and he sounded disgusted as well.
" I hate him so much !" Puck said. "Oh by the way Blaine told me about what Finn told you, you know that it's bullshit right ?"
"What are you talking about ?"
"When he told you that you should stay away from straight guys not to make them feel uncomfortable." Puck explained.
"Oh, I … Finn was really uncomfortable when I was around him so I guess it's sort of true."
"Finn's an asshole Kurt, I called him to tell him so by the way, you've never made me feel uncomfortable and I'm sure it's the same for the other guys in glee club." Puck reassured the smaller boy.
" I don't know Puck, you remember when we did the boys vs girls thing in glee club ? You all sent me to hell."
"No, Finn sent you to hell, I admit that we never did anything to make you feel accepted and I feel truly bad about it but now I know you better I know that I'd never send you to hell again." Puck said, it was lame but the boy was prisoner of a shed so he deserved some lameness.
"Thanks Puck, do you mind if I consider you as a friend ? I know it's a childish question but since we were far from being friends at school..." Kurt said embarrassed and Puck couldn't do but burst out laughing.
"This question is awesome ! I consider you as a friend since when I left the shed for the first time. Because, when I was inside we were fighting all the time. Don't be embarrassed or any shit in front of me, I'm the only one you can talk to for now so you can talk to me as if I were Aretha I don't care !"
"Good to know." Kurt answered in a weird tone. "So what do you think of the last spring-summer collection of Yves St Laurent ?" He asked maliciously.
"mmm, I think there were too much colors on the sleeves and the pants were too loose." Puck answered pretending knowing something about fashion.
" I totally see what you mean, his last collection was all yellow it was far better." Kurt answered, his voice betraying the fact that he was about to burst out laughing.
"Yes, the yellow was a metaphor for the sun and all the joy it brings, but red, and on the sleeves, that was an insult to fashion itself !" Puck answered mocking an offended tone.
"We should talk about fashion more often that's hilarious !" Kurt said laughing. His laugh was contagious and Puck laughed as well.
