Torn (A Quinn Fabray Story)

Chapter 3: Noah Puckerman

Chapter 3

The next day I'm walking into Glee Practice early, but something stops me. People are screaming in the choir room. 'Oh my god' I think 'It's Puck and Lauren.' I know I shouldn't be doing this, but I press my ear up against the door.

"Why won't you listen to me! You're being a control freak! It's insanity!" Puck screams at Lauren.

"That's because you're an idiot who can't tell his rights from his lefts!" Lauren retorts.

"Okay, that's it. I'm done. Have fun finding another guy to help you Zizes" Puck says, and I hear his footsteps coming towards the door.

I quickly scramble to the other side of the hall. "Hey, you okay?" I ask him, acting like I didn't hear that big explosion. "Yeah. Hey wait.." Puck starts. He walks towards me. "You still don't have a date to prom yet, right?" he asks me. "Well, um, yeah I guess."

"How would you like to go with me?" He asks me.

I'm startled. I never ever expected this. I can't think of anything to say. Puck is standing right in front of me now. "Well?" He snaps, sounding annoyed.

"Um...I don't know, Puck. You JUST broke up with Lauren. It would suck to be your freakin' rebound" I tell him.

"Listen, you wouldn't be a rebound. I'm hot, and you're smoking considering you've had a baby. So, how bout it?"

"I still don't know" I answer, and I run into the choir room.

All through glee club, I could feel Puck staring at me. I was just hoping that Lauren didn't notice, but I know other people did. Like Santana. I kept forgetting about her. She would probably go what she calls "All Lima Heights" if I went to prom with Puck. Finally, Glee ended and I didn't have to deal with Puck and Lauren and Santana. I ran to my locker before I could catch up with anyone. I put my stuff in my locker, shut it and turn around. "Hey Quinn," Santana's standing right behind me, well, now in front of me.

"Wha-wha-what do you want Santana?" I ask nervously. "I was just wondering, what was happening between you and Puck today?" She asked me as we started walking. "I have no idea what you're talking about" I lie. "Oh come on. You could practically feel the sexual tension. Now I know what you're thinking, she's gonna hurt me cuz thid means no after-afternoon delight. But believe me, I'm good. I mean face it, you guys had a freakin child together,there's no getting around it. So, what happened between you two." She asks.

"So you know that Puck and Lauren broke up?" I ask Santana. "Of course. Puck just sang a song about it 5 minutes ago" she replies, rolling her eyes. "Yeah well, I heard them break up. It was horrible. But after they broke up, he came up to me and kind of, asked me to prom." I confess. "Quinn, that's amazing! And you said yes?" Santana's eyebrows raise. "Well, I said maybe. I just don't know." "Quinn, let's face it, who else is gonna ask you to brom. You pretty much hit rock bottom by asking everyone at Glee to ask you to prom. I don't mean to be mean but, it's true. If I were you, I would take the chance/."

Santana walks away before I could reply again. She leaves me thinking if she was telling the truth, or just setting me up. I know she's my best friend but, she's hard to trust.
