Chapter 13:
On Sunday, Puck was bored. He had gotten used to having his community service, not that he liked it but it gave him something to do. Now he was alone in his room and didn't know what to do, there was no way he would do his homework, he had managed not to do them since his first day at McKinley, he would not start now. He wanted the time to move faster to go and talk to Kurt. They had had a really good time the day before It was so easy to talk to him, easier than to the jocks or the gleeks.
Puck grabbed his guitar and played Wish you were here, it was the first song he had been taught to play and it was the one that introduced him the Pink Floyd. He spent his afternoon playing the guitar, he played some Bob Marley, Rolling stones, Bob Dylan, all the bands he could listen to for hours without getting bored.
At some point, Santana called him but he denied her offer, afraid of what could happen if they had sex. He was not sure if he would picture Kurt again, but the mere idea of shouting the boy's name while coming with Santana sent shivers down his spine.
When night time finally came, Puck grabbed his backpack and walked towards the forest. He really liked this routine, even though he'd prefer Kurt to be free.
"Hey there !" He said cheerfully when he reached the shed.
"Puck ? What are you doing here ?" Kurt asked. Puck didn't understand.
"Coming to see you as-"
" I don't want to see you go away." Kurt said and it hurt Puck.
"What but I-"
" I knew it ! I fuckin' knew it !" Karofsky shouted appearing from behind the shed. Shit ! Thought Puck. "How often do you come here Puckerman ?" Karofsky asked.
"It' the first time, I just wanted to check if he was okay since you didn't let me see him yesterday." Puck lied.
"You'll have all the time you want to see him you're staying and for long this time ! I told you not to do anything and you fuckin' come here !" Karofsky said, the baseball bat in hand.
"I'm not going in there again !" Puck shouted, he wanted to see Kurt but knew that his sister would be defenseless without him. He didn't see the bat landing on his arm. "You fuckin' asshole !" He shouted holding his arm that hurt badly.
"Now you're fuckin' going inside ! And don't get close to Kurt or you'll be dead before tomorrow night !" Karofsky said shoving Puck in the shed. "And I know you're the one who told Finn it was me who kidnapped Kurt so don't complain if you get more hurt !" Karofsky said before closing the door behind him.
Puck collapsed on the floor holding his arm which was as painful as if it was broken. He was locked up again and couldn't find a way to get out of it without endangering Sarah.
He felt Kurt sitting right beside him.
" I … I tried to tell you to go away because he was still there but it was too late." Kurt said his voice shaking.
" I know." Puck answered bitterly. When he turned his head to face Kurt he noticed that the boy was thinner than before and he had a blue eyes. "Fuck, Kurt you look like shit !" He couldn't stop himself from saying. Kurt smiled.
"I know, I tried to be as ugly as possible for him to not want me anymore but it doesn't seem to work." Kurt explained.
"You're not ugly, you just don't look as fabulous as you usually do, as you say." Puck answered smiling. Kurt blushed.
"We should put your arm in a sling." Kurt stated standing up a looking around. He found a large piece of cloth, wrapped it around Puck's arm and neck before knotting it. Puck stood up to sit down on the bed. Once Kurt joined him Puck hugged the smaller boy with his healthy arm.
"I've missed you." He said honestly.
"We've been talking to each other everyday Puck." Kurt said not breaking the hug.
" I've missed seeing you, it was frustrating to talk to a door."
" I can imagine that." Kurt answered.
"At least now you're not alone." Puck said trying to show the bright side of this shit.
" I'd rather be alone and you to be able to defend your sister." Kurt said.
" I don't think he'll hurt her as long as I'm in there." Puck answered more to reassure himself. "Hey I almost forgot ! I had brought things I wanted to give you to make your staying here more pleasant, I intended to throw the things through the chimney but there's no need since I'm here !" He stood up grabbed his backpack and sat on the bed again. "Close your eyes." He ordered the smaller boy to increase the suspense. He took the first thing out and put it in Kurt's arms. "Open your eyes."
"A blanket ? Oh that's really nice Puck I'm so freezing here !" Kurt said happily.
" I know, now close your eyes again." Kurt did so and Puck put the second item out. "Open."
"Oh cookies ! Great ! He gave me food but it was always crap I didn't dare eating everything." Kurt explained.
"And now, the last but not the least. Close your eyes." He took the last item and held it in front of Kurt's eyes. "Open."
"Vodka ?" Kurt asked skeptically.
"The best shield against cold and sadness." Puck said smiling.
"I don't drink Puck." Kurt said.
"But here you do, because I will and I never drink alone." Puck told the smaller boy.
" I never behave when I'm drunk Puck."
"Who cares ? Do you think I do ? We're alone Kurt, no one will laugh at you or any shit, it will make us happy for a while and we won't be cold." Puck said drinking a first gulp of vodka before handing the bottle to Kurt.
"I don't know." Kurt said hesitantly.
"C'mon let yourself go for once, no one will blame you for drinking, even if you tell your dad once outside I'm sure he'll tell you that it was a good idea." Puck said, and that was all it took for Kurt to surrender. He lifted the bottle to his lips and drank a long sip without even coughing, which impressed Puck.
"That's a good vodka." Kurt said.
"You can tell a good from a bad vodka ?" Puck asked impressed.
"Yes, April Rhodes taught me." Kurt answered while giving the bottle back to Puck.
Although Kurt knew about vodka, it was clear that he didn't handle alcohol because at the sixth sip he was clearly dizzy. He let himself fall on the bed with a dazed smile on his face.
" I haven't been drunk since... Since April Rhodes ! It feels good."
Puck hadn't had lunch so he felt dizzy as well, it felt good after all the crap they had been through.
"I haven't been drunk for a month, I missed it." Puck said taking another sip of vodka before lying on the bed as well. " I like you very much Kurt." Puck said looking at the boy lying next to him.
"You know who I like ? The Beatles !" Kurt said.
"Yeah I like them too, they're totally cool."
"And the best is that they lived in a shit town and they managed to become like the … the … I don't know." Kurt trailed off.
"The best band ever ?" Puck asked.
"Yeah ! And they did it with songs like Yellow Submarine. Who would be able to become the greatest band ever talking about a submarine or strawberries or...That's totally crazy !"
"Oh ! Let's create a rock band when we're outta here ! I'll be the guitarist and you the lead singer and I'll sing too and Finn will be our drummer but we'll treat him like shit because he's an asshole ! And we'll talk about stupid shit and we'll become as cool as the Beatles !"
"Deal !" Kurt said.
"Let's drink to that !" Puck took a long sip before handing the bottle to Kurt who took a very long sip as well.
"We're having a really good time tonight ! It's so much better than the last time you were here !" Kurt said.
"Cause I'm having a good time, good time !" Puck sang with Queen's lyrics.
"I'm a leaping star shooting through the skies like a tiger defying the laws of gravity." Kurt sang.
"I'm a racing car passing by like lady Godiva, I'm gonna go, go,go,go there's no stopping me." Puck sang along.
"I'm burning through the sky yeah two hundred degrees that's why they call me Mr Farenheit, I'm traveling at the speed of light I wanna make a supersonic man out of you !" They sang pointing at each other, laughing.
"I'm a rocket ship on my way to mars, on a collision course, I am a satellite, I'm out of control." Kurt sang.
"I'm a sex machine ready to reload, like an atom bomb about to oh, oh, oh explode !" Kurt burst out laughing as Puck mimicked playing the guitar solo.
"We are so good at it ! We should totally have a band !" Kurt said.
"We will and we'll be the best !" Puck answered. They remained silent for a while picturing what a blast it could be if they had a band.
" I hate Karofsky." Kurt stated suddenly.
"Oh I have an idea !" Puck exclaimed. "Tomorrow night when he comes we wait for him on each side of the door and when he enters you grab his legs and I jump on him and we tie him up and give him to the wolves who live in the forest !" Puck said. "Oh I need to tell Finn we're here ! We so loved playing here !" Puck added grabbing his mobile from his pocket.
Fiiiiinn ! Kurt & I r in the hang man's shed, u know in the wolves forest ! That's totally cooool !
"There are wolves ?" Kurt asked incredulous.
"Sure ! We used to play with them when we were kids. Or maybe they were sheep. But sheep can be dangerous can't they ?"
"Of course ! They have tentacles under the wool, but they retract them when people shave them." Kurt explained.
"And then, no more Karofsky ! Because he has no rights to kiss you !" Puck said infuriated at the mere idea of Kurt being kissed by Karofsky.
"Yeah ! And he's the only one who's ever kissed me and I hate him so it's no cool." Kurt said pouting.
"You don't hate me ?" Puck asked an idea popping in his head.
"Noooo ! You're totally cool !" Kurt answered.
"So I can kiss you and Karofsky's bad taste will be gone !" Puck said.
"I think it could work." Kurt answered. And Puck leaned above the smaller boy and kissed him deeply. Kurt answered, shoving his tongue against Puck's. When they broke the kiss Puck was even more dazed.
"Can I do it again ? That was awesome !" Kurt nodded. This time Puck pulled Kurt on top of him and put his hands on the boys hips while kissing him. He was starting to be really aroused by the situation and the alcohol and most of all by the boy on top of him. " I think I'm gay for you, is that possible ?" Puck asked curiously.
" I guess" Kurt answered before kissing him again.
