A/N: Here's chapter three! And the next encounter is... The Grocery Store! As always, please review. :) If you'd like to see something, just let me know!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Glee and/or Mark Salling. I do own Luke, so please, don't steal him without asking first. :)
WARNINGS: the appearance of condoms and lube. That's it, except for some dirty talking Puck might do.
3.) It's been three days since I last ran into Luke at the pool. I was disappointed that he didn't seem the slightest bit interested, and that he was put off by my tattoo. It wasn't my girlfriend, damn it, it was my daughter, whom I missed very dearly. It was a way of keeping her close to my heart, both literally and figuratively.
Well, Dave decided that he was going to have a shop picnic this weekend to celebrate another year of success. If things kept going this well, we'd have enough money to buy the spot next to us and expand. We could even hire another artist. Well, before we think about another artist, I have to think about all the things I'm going to put into this salad; it has to be something Kurt will approve of. I know he likes cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and carrots, but I already have the tomatoes at home. Kurt and Dave's anniversary was coming up too. They'd been together forever, and like a true friend, I'm giving them something to spice up their sex life. After a very awkward conversation with my boss, I found out that he had never tried lube that heated up or ribbed condoms. Needless to say, that's exactly what I'm getting them for their present. I can't wait to see the look on Kurt's face when he opens that package. It's gonna be priceless.
I stop at that aisle first, grabbing the necessary items before walking over to the produce section. I do this every once in a while, just to freak out the little old ladies that sometimes are around Saturday afternoons. The puzzled looks they send me mix with disgust as they attempt to piece together what exactly I need all of those items for. Let's make things clear: I use the lube and condoms for sex, and the produce for eating. That's it. Nothing else.
I'm reaching for a cucumber when my hand bumps into another hand, an oddly familiar studded, leather cuff adorning the wrist. Turning to face the owner of the hand as we grab for cucumbers that are sitting side-by-side.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to bu—oh, it's you," Luke said, retracting his hand as if I'd burnt it. "Of all the places I ever thought I'd meet you, here was not one of them."
"Oh, so you've thought about meeting me again?" I replied, attempting to lay on the charm this time around.
Luke huffed. "Most certainly not. It just doesn't seem like the place I'd see a player like you," he sniped, grabbing a head of lettuce from a shelf to his right.
"Why not? It's a grocery store, everybody shops for food," I commented, reaching for the carrots. I selected a bunch, inspecting them for their thickness before replacing them, grabbing another bunch instead. I knew Kurt liked carrot disks instead of shreds or ribbons, and that he liked them big around.
Luke raised an eyebrow at my choice. "Not big enough for you? After all, you did buy extra large condoms," he commented, gesturing to the box in my basket.
Sighing, I placed the carrots on top of the condom box, hiding them from view. "It's not what it looks like, really. I have to bring a salad to an event tomorrow, and one of the guys coming will probably only eat the salad, and likes round carrot disks instead of the shredded stuff I normally get. And the condoms aren't for me. They're an anniversary present for a close friend of mine," I answered, grabbing a package of fresh strawberries. I knew they were good by their smell, and I totally know Kurt's bringing homemade pound cake tomorrow. Maybe I could bring along a mixed berry garnish.
"If you say so," Luke laughed, reaching for some blueberries.
"I do say so. The couple I'm giving it to has never tried them, and they've been together like four years or so," I explained, turning to face the blonde boy. I think I shocked him, because he was looking at me with a surprised and very confused look. In fact, if he was 6'3'' and had brown hair, he would have resembled Finn.
"Well, I've gotta go, Luke. It was nice seeing you again, but I've got to start chopping vegetables. This salad isn't going to make itself," I said, turning to leave, but before I did, I gently slipped my free hand around his waist and leaned in close to his ear. "I can't wait until our next encounter," I purred. This time, it was me who made the exit, and I was pretty proud of the fierce blush I could see from the glass cases beside me. I knew he was going to think about me a lot until we saw each other again. I really hoped it would be soon.
A/N: And that's a wrap for this chapter! Please leave some feedback, so I know how to improve! I hope you enjoyed this, and the next chapter should be out soon!
