Summary: 5 times Puck and Rachel don't have sex...but so close!
The first time Noah “Puck” Puckerman and Rachel Berry didn’t have sex was right after Puck chose Glee over football and Finn Hudson cock blocked him.
Mr. Schue had dismissed the kids early on Thursday after Finn didn’t show up. There wasn’t much point in practicing their songs for sectionals if one of their leads was missing. Next Glee practice they would have to brainstorm on how to attract another member to round out the 12 needed to compete, and try to find another strong male lead. Everyone had cut out when Schue gave the ok to go, except Rachel. She made it her “unofficial” task to stay behind after every practice and put the room back in order. Even Mr. Schue had gone, knowing Rachel would make sure the room was good to go for the next day.
Puck hung back, “Need a ride home Rachel?” He asked as he dropped him bag on the floor by the piano bench.
She looked over at him and smile, “Yes, please Noah that would be lovely.” She continued moving around the room, putting back the few chairs that had been taken out earlier. She didn’t expect him to help her, and really he wasn’t the type of guy to offer. Relaxing on the bench he watched her flutter around the room as she cleaned up.
A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth as he watched her. ‘Bless the man who invented short skirts’ he thought to himself as he was graced with a peek at what she wore underneath, ‘Hot pink!’ he thought ‘hot damn Berry!’ The girl was full of surprises.
She made quick work of putting the room in order. Coming to stand in front of him she looked down and smiled, “What’s got such a big smile on your face Noah?” Rachel asked sweetly as she played with the hem of her shirt.
Puck was jolted out of his thoughts by her voice being so close, ‘She’s like a tiny little ninja or something!’
Standing up he gave her a bigger smile, “Just thinking about the look on everyone’s face when I walked into Glee instead of Finn.” He got a kick out of shocking people too.
“While I was surprised to see you,” she looked down, “especially after the conversation we had earlier,” she blushed a little remembering the scene that played out in the bathroom, “I was not shocked that Finn didn’t come, disappointed in him, but not surprised.” There was a sad smile on her lips.
Puck grabbed Rachel’s bag off the top of the piano before she could, she didn’t say anything, she was sure he didn’t notice he’d done it, silently she followed him out into the hall.
“Why do you say that, about Finn I mean?” Puck was curious, nobody usually said anything negative about Saint Finn, and he wasn’t expecting Finn’s number one fan to say what she just had.
Rachel kept pace with Puck as they made their way out to his truck. “Finn’s not like you Noah!” She started. “You’re strong and confident and don’t need other people to validate you.” She looked over at him and smiled, “I admire that about you, your ‘badassness’” she staged whispered the last word to him. Her comment earned her a hearty laugh from Puck, Berry did not swear, ever. “Finn needs others to make him feel good about himself, he worries to much what others think of him.”
Puck was holding his head high at Rachel’s compliment.
“Don’t get me wrong, it is important to consider what others think of you, but it shouldn’t be your motivation in everything you do, and for Finn most of the time that is what drives him.”
As they arrived at his car Puck put both their bags in the bed of the truck before turning to unlock and open the door for Rachel. Puck looked between Rachel and the passenger seat; it was quite the climb for her. “Jeeze Berry you’re a midget!” He remarked before placing his hands on her hips and lifting her into the cab.
Rachel gave him a very un-lady like huff of disapproval, “I’m not a midget, not technically, and while I am petite it is nothing to laugh at…”
Puck cut her off before she could get to worked up, “Chill Berry, you’re a tight little package, it’s a good thing.” She gapped down at him and he couldn’t help the smile that spread across his face at her expression. Reaching for her legs he gently swung them into the cab so she was facing forward before he shut her door and made his way around to the driver’s side.
With the tinted windows he couldn’t see her face as he got to his door, but he was pretty sure she still had the same shocked expression. He slid into the car next to her, yep; her mouth was still slightly hanging open in surprise.
Slowly she turned to look at him, her mouth shutting, and a small smile gracing her pretty pink lips. “You are incorrigible Noah Puckerman!” She said around her smile, a slight brush coming to her cheeks.
Puck shrugged, “What cause I’m honest! I’ve always thought you were hot Berry,” he looked her up and down, “I mean look at you!” He raised a suggestive eyebrow. Her blush increased, but she didn’t look away from him, to amazed at what he was telling her.
“You did?” Disbelief in her voice, “Then why…” she stopped talking to look away from him, their conversation was going nicely, she didn’t want to ruin it by bringing up something from the past, something he’d already apologized for.
“Why was I such a dick to you?” He asked finishing her thought. He looked down at the stirring wheel, a little ashamed to meet her questioning gaze, which was now back on him. “All that stuff you said about Finn earlier,” she nodded remembering her words. “He’s not the only one who gives into peer pressure. At first I started doing the slushy thing cause that’s what the other guys on the team did, but then it kind of became my thing, everyone knew me for the slushy attacks and it helped give me my ‘badass’ rep.” He joked using her stage whisper from earlier to lighten the mood. He was rewarded with a soft chuckle from her. He dared to bring his eyes up to look at her. “So I’m not so different from Finn.” He looked away again; he couldn’t take the intense look she was giving him.
Rachel slid over on the bench seat, moving closer to Noah she put her hand on his arm and gave it a little tug until he looked back up at her. There was a soft smile on her face, releasing his arm she spoke, “I also said it’s important to consider what others think of you too.” Her smile grew a little wider, “And no one’s perfect!” she reminded him, “Well except maybe me!” She added with a mocking tone in her voice. Her last comment earned her another chuckle from Puck.
He turned his body to face her, bringing his right arm up over the back of the seat. “You know Berry you’re pretty funny when you aren’t obsessing about singing and shit.”
She rolled her eyes, “Noah swearing is so not necessary.” She scolded.
He gave a grin, “Sorry babe it’s part of my everyday vocabulary.”
Rachel felt a flutter in her stomach when he called her babe, but she tried to ignore it.
They sat in silence for a few minutes before Rachel said anything else. Looking up at his profile she spoke, “Noah, what made you decided to choose Glee over Football today?” She couldn’t help the curiosity that was running around in her brain.
Puck looked over at her and smiled, he really couldn’t tell you for sure why he walked into Glee this afternoon instead of heading to the gym and suiting up for practice. There were a few factors that played into his decision, but the explanation he gave Rachel was only part of the truth. “I don’t like the way Tanaka handled this shi…” he caught himself and for her he censored his language, “stuff with Glee and football. Plus I don’t do good with ultimatums, Tanaka made the choice for me when he said be there or I was off the team.” He shrugged like it was no big deal, but kept his eyes on Rachel watching her reaction.
Nervously she tugged on her bottom lip, letting Puck’s words sink in, his use of ‘stuff’ instead of ‘shit’ didn’t go unnoticed. She leaned forward slightly, reaching out and putting her right hand to Puck’s upper chest, “It was very badass of you!” She whispered her comment to him, eyes cast down in embarrassment.
Before he could think better of it, Puck leaned forward and captured Rachel’s lips with his own. He was gentle at first, waiting for her response before continuing. She gave a slight whimper at being caught off guard, but leaned further into the kiss, applying more pressure to his lips.
He smiled against her mouth as he brought his arms around her tiny figure and pulled her closer to his body.
Rachel slid her right hand up over his shoulder, up his neck and held onto the small patch of hair on his scalp. Puck moaned in appreciation of her touch as she gave his head a little tug.
Their current amount of contact was not enough for Rachel. Maneuvering her body she slid into Puck’s lap, straddling this thigh’s.
Puck was in heaven, he had his hands full of a sexy, hard bodied, women. He felt himself grow harder, straining painfully against the constraints of his jeans.
With the stirring wheel behind her Rachel couldn’t come fully down into Noah’s lap and she gave a little grumble of annoyance.
Breaking from their kiss Puck leaned back and smiled at Rachel. “Frustrated much Berry?” He asked smugly.
She breathed heavy trying to catch her breath. Puck took in the sight before him. Rachel had a blush to her cheeks, a slight swelling of her lips and a hungry look in her eyes. Reaching over Puck braced his arm on the seat and moved them to the center of the bench. Rachel brought her bottom down into Puck’s lap and rocked her hips slightly. Puck sucked in a breath and his eyes rolled slightly in his head, “Shit Berry!” he managed to ground out.
A smile now played on Rachel’s lips as she realized the effect she had on him. She gave another slow roll of her hips, pressing down into Noah’s erection. His head dropped back onto the seat as his hands went to her hips to hold her still.
She bit her bottom lips as she watched Noah’s expressions change from annoyed to hungry. Her hands had been resting on his shoulders, holding her back from his body slightly, but now that she was resting firmly in his lap she began to explore his body. Slowly she slid her hands down his chest, enjoying the fell of his toned muscles beneath the shirt. Unknowingly her tiny fingers grazed Puck’s sensitive nipple ring, he hissed in pleasure at the sensation she elicited within him.
Rachel wasn’t sure what she had done to earn Noah’s pleased reaction, but she wanted to do it again. Leaning forward Rachel took advantage of Noah’s exposed neck, her lips placing soft kisses along his jaw, moving up to his ear where she playfully gave a tug to the lobe.
This time Puck bucked his hips up into her, she smiled in appreciation. “Do it again!” she breathed into his ear. Not one to disappoint, Puck did as she asked, rotating her hips in the opposite direction of his. He was rewarded with a soft nip to his ear.
Puck let his hands wander up her firm body, sliding up under her sweater, gently stroking the soft skin just under the top. Goose bumps broke out all across Rachel’s skin and Puck didn’t hide his satisfied smile at her body’s reaction.
One of his hands stayed just under the hem of her sweater, making small circles on her skin. His other hand traveled up her spine and he threaded his fingers into her hair. Gently he pulled her head away from his neck so he could claim her lips again.
Rachel opened her mouth allowing Noah’s tongue to dance with hers. Her senses were being overwhelmed by his kiss, his touch, the heat of his body, but she wanted even more.
Her hands moved of their own accord, going down to Noah’s jeans, working to undo his belt and the snaps on his pants.
Puck was pretty sure he had just died and gone to heaven, Rachel Berry was in his lap, undoing his pants, taking charge, and it was totally hot.
A loud thump from the back of Puck’s truck broke them from their make-out session. With a little yelp Rachel jumped out of Noah’s lap, her common senses coming back to her. She worked quickly to put her appearance back in order.
Puck looked out the back window and cursed to himself. Uncomfortably he shifted back over to the driver’s seat, he arranged himself the best he could to hide his erection from being too obvious.
There was a quick knock at his window signaling them their interruption was still present. With an annoyed sigh Puck rolled down his window to great the knocker.
A large frame filled the now open window before Finn Hudson’s goofy smile came into view. “Hey Puck, what are you doing here still?” Finn asked his best friend slightly confused.
Puck rolled his eyes, “Glee!” he said in an annoyed tone.
Finn awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck as he adjusted his football gear on his shoulder. “Oh yeah, right!” The taller boy blushed.
Rachel made a slight huffing noise from beside Puck. Finn leaned down further to see who was in Puck’s passenger seat. “Rachel?” he asked confused.
Rachel crossed her arms over her chest, “Hello Finn!” She bit out refusing to look in his direction.
Finn blushed even more in embarrassment for standing up Rachel and the rest of Glee. “What are you doing here,” he looked back at his friend, “with Puck?”
Puck gripped the stirring wheel tightly, trying to hold onto his anger at Finn’s question.
Rachel’s eyes flicked to Noah’s hands clenching the wheel, her heart broke a little for him, knowing the meaning behind Finn’s question wasn’t lost on either of them. Slowly she slid her gaze over to Finn. “Noah was gallant enough to offer me a ride home after Glee practice today.” She graced Puck with a warm smile, “Noah was brave enough to choose Glee today,” Puck dropped his eyes back to the stirring wheel, “whatever his reason’s.” She placed a hand on Noah’s arm giving it a gentle squeeze.
Finn stood in silence for a few minutes, not sure how to respond.
Puck felt a little swell of pride at Rachel’s supportive words. Finally breaking the silence Puck cleared his throat. “So what’s up Finn, your mom running late?”
Rachel felt an uncomfortable feeling growing in her stomach. Realization of what she has just been doing with Noah flooded her. She felt a blush rise in her cheeks. What was she doing, two days ago she had been fawning over Finn Hudson, and two minutes ago she had been squirming in Noah Puckerman’s lap, what was wrong with her.
Finn had been staring at Rachel, watching a serious of emotions play out across her face, but away to answer Puck. “Oh, yeah. I mean no, she left me a voice mail, she’s stuck at work.” Finn fell silent for a minute, “I saw your truck, was wondering if you could give me a ride home.”
Puck felt Rachel tense at his side, but he really couldn’t say no to Finn’s request. “Sure dump your stuff in the bed and climb in.” Puck hoped he sounded as annoyed as he felt.
Finn’s face lit up, “Yeah! Thanks, great.”
Finn ducked out of view, making his way to the back of the truck.
Puck could feel Rachel’s eyes on him. “What?” He asked her in a hushed tone. “Was I supposed to tell him no?”
She crossed her arms over her chest again, annoyed that he was right. “I guess not.” She grumbled out.
Finn pulled the passenger door open. “You’re gonna need to scoot over there Rachel.” Finn told her.
Rolling her eyes at him she moved her body closer to Noah. She felt the heat from Noah’s body and stifled a sigh. Suddenly she was sandwiched between the two boys and she was feeling very uncomfortable.
Puck started his truck and headed out of the school parking lot. He shifted in his seat, trying to give Rachel a little more room. Puck glanced down at Rachel, he noticed she was nervously biting on her lower lip, he could see the wheels turning in her head, “Uh Finn I’m gonna drop you off first.” Puck informed his passengers.
Both Finn and Rachel’s head shot in Puck’s direction. “But you have to go by Rachel’s place to get to mine.” Finn reminded Puck.
Puck suppressed his eye roll. “Yeah dude, I know. But Rachel was gonna help me with some glee stuff.” He lied.
“Oh!” Finn sounded defeated.
Rachel spoke up, “Actually Noah if you don’t mind could you drop me off first.” She knew if she let Noah take her home they would end up doing what they had been doing before Finn interrupted them, maybe more and she wasn’t sure she was ready for that. “I feel a bit of a headache coming on.” She chanced a glance in Noah’s direction and watched as his jaw muscles flexed in annoyance.
“Yeah sure Berry,” he bit out, “another time maybe,” he added in a softer tone.
The next day, after school, Rachel broke up with Puck. She spent most of the previous night worrying over how fickle she seemed to be with her feelings. She didn’t think it was fair to Noah; she obviously still had feeling for Finn, even if he continued to disappoint and let her down. Noah took it in typical Puckerman style and left her with a parting remark, aimed to hurt.

“Yeah sure Berry,” he bit out, “another time maybe,” he added in a softer tone.
The next day, after school, Rachel broke up with Puck. She spent most of the previous night worrying over how fickle she seemed to be with her feelings. She didn’t think it was fair to Noah; she obviously still had feeling for Finn, even if he continued to disappoint and let her down. Noah took it in typical Puckerman style and left her with a parting remark, aimed to hurt.
