Friday Puck has Rachel (and Rachel's mouth) all to himself in the den at Mike's house, while half the school is having the party of the month downstairs. He has her pinned between his hips and the wall, her legs around his waist, and under pretense of holding her up with a hand on the side of her rib cage he is totally getting some thumb to nipple action.
On Monday, he buys her a grape slushie and gives her a line about working on a glee assignment together. He has his knowing grin on, and when her answering one is all shy and timid he winks, hooks her arm through his and walks her to class. But she has dance class and family dinner in the evening and it's too late to do anything about their glee assignment anyway, so they don't see each other after school.
On Tuesday, she has already left home when he goes to pick her up in the morning. He doesn't see her until second period which they have together, and when he walks in she's already seated at the front of the room with no available seat next to her. He can see that she's a little surprised at the end of the class when he waits for her. She walks slightly behind him all the way to her locker, not resisting his pull on her hand, but not holding his hand back either. He sits next to her in glee and he finds her a little too quiet, but she's smiling as he plays with her fingers on his lap through Shue's speech about the theme of the week (fads and passing craze). He drives her home but her dads are there so she won't invite him in. He'd suspect bullshit (it never mattered when they were dating the first time around), but when he kisses her good night she does this little sigh against his mouth and kind of melts against him. It's obvious she would prefer to spend the evening with him.
Which leaves him puzzled on Wednesday when she walks right past him as he's talking with Hammond at his locker and doesn't even look at him. He has a hectic morning with exams and gym class and he doesn't really see her until she's walking in the cafeteria at lunch time. She sits away from him and, well, it's annoying but he wasn't really expecting her to sit with the jocks. He joins her once he's finished eating and they talk of everything and nothing until the bell rings. He's the one who takes her arm as they walk the hallway together and again, she lets him but not much more. She is the one that asks if his mom still works and his sister still stays at the neighbors' on Wednesday evenings though, and could they start on their glee assignment at his place without disrupting anyone? And she is the only who starts kissing him with barely one foot in the door. She's pure Rachel in his arms as she's putting all her soul in the kiss. She's pure Rachel all evening, chatty and bubbly and cute, and he does everything he can think of to make her laugh because the sound of her relaxed and happy is gorgeous. They make out until they're starving, expedite both dinner and homework, then make out some more. He drives her home before curfew and they kiss in his truck until the porch light starts flashing. She giggles as she tells him that daddy Berry would like you to know curfew means in the house, not the driveway and she saunters to the door blowing him kisses all the way.
It becomes obvious something is weird on Thursday morning, when once again she doesn't stop at his locker on her way to hers, doesn't even look at him as she walks past. He joins her as she picking up her books for her first class, slides a hand around her waist and whisper good morning against her ear. She turns around in his arms with the brightest smile and kisses him until the bell rings, when she does this little contented sigh, touches her forehead to his for a second before grabbing her books. They get to glee together, sit together, and through the class they barely register what's going on. They hear Tina sing about rocket scientist not impressing her, and Santana sing that she knows something about love but by the time Shue starts singing Achy Breaky Heart to illustrate the true point of the theme, they are so wrapped up in each other that they are the only two not to walk out.
He has to miss the whole morning of school on Friday for double doctor/dentist appointments and once again he doesn't get to see her until after lunch. He's sitting alone in the cafeteria when she walks in though (all his mates have left to go loiter on the football field so they can pretend total dedication in front of the coach), yet she still sits at a different table. She doesn't look mad or sad, so he just goes and joins her, mostly unafraid of shout or tears. Indeed she looks happy enough to see him - until he moves to kiss her and suddenly she's delighted, taking control right away and making him wish they were somewhere less public (so he could take it further, of course).
It bugs him through math class though, how everyday this week he's had to make an obvious first move toward her before she even acknowledged him. So he drives her home at the end of the day, and before she slips out of his car (but after she's kissed him to distraction a couple of times) he asks her. She blushes at first and he has to coax it out of her.
“It's crazy when I have to tell you like that. But I can't get it out of my head every morning so...”
“Rachel, what?”
“I'm... I'm kind of waiting for you to remember that you hate me.”
He doesn't answer right away because: “What?”
“It's bound to happen Noah. I'll talk too much, or criticize everyone during glee, or I'll send the new girl to a crack house and you'll remember that I'm crazy and make you want to set yourself on fire.”
He can't help but laugh (that was a good one. Come on, it was disaffected anyway) “Ah, but Babe, you've got one thing wrong.” He moves so he can get closer to her and runs a hand through her hair before lowering his mouth toward hers. “I never forgot any of that. In fact, it's part of the appeal”, he tells her, just before their lips meet.
Friday night, he has her pinned between his hips and the wall in Tina's bedroom. He couldn't care less if they're having the party of the century or the lamest one in a decade out there, he's only interested in how he never thought it was possible for Rachel to be more into this than she was, now that she's not so scared of him changing his mind tomorrow.
(Oh, and neither of them ends up turning in a song for the week's assignment. They don't feel like anything in their life is a fad at the moment, and maybe it's a bit crazy, but it isn't likely to pass anytime soon.)
