The princess and the player

7

It's the first football game of senior year.  The football team and doing their drills and the cheerleaders are warming up. Both teams go back to their locker rooms and wait for the game to start.

'I hope they win.' Brittany exclaims.

'They haven't got a hope in hell.' Santana says applying a fresh coat of lipgloss. 'There's a reason they're called the worse football team in Ohio.'

'She has a point.' Quinn adds.

'It's showtime people.'

The Cheerios pile out of the locker room but Quinn stays back to fix her ponytail. As she leaves the room someone is coming out of the boys locker room. She isn't surprised when she sees Puck.

'Hey.' She says, not liking how she suddenly feels nervous around him.

'Hi.' He says softly.

'You are definitely stalking me.' Quinn teases.

'No way Fabray. You're stalking me.'

The two end up walking to the field together. Just as they're about to go outside Puck pulls her back.

'W-What are you doing?' She asks.

'Go out with me.'

She smiles. 'No.'

'Come on Fabray. You're totally into me.'

'No I'm not.' She quickly denies.

He smiles. 'Go out with me.'

She bites her lips. 'Fine. I'll go out with you.' He smiles. 'If the Titans win this game. I'll go out with you.'

He thinks for a moment. 'Deal.'

She smirks. 'Just so you know. This team you're playing against is the best in the state and the Titans are considered the worse.' She taps his chest. 'Good luck Puckerman.' And with that she walks away and joins the rest of the Cheerios on the field.

'Where were you?' Brittany asked.

'Probably with Puckerman for a quickie in the locker room.' Santana teases throwing the blonde her Pom-Poms.

'You're disgusting.' Quinn scoffed.

As the team ran out onto the field everyone in the stands started cheering and the Cheerios began their first cheer.

The head cheerleader and the linebacker made eye contact. She smiled at him. He smiled back.

'They suck!' Santana exclaimed. It was half time and the Titans was being ripped to shreds by the other team. 'Hey Q, maybe you could talk to your boyfriend and tell him that his team are embarrassing all of us.'

'He isn't my boyfriend.' Quinn muttered quietly. The blonde looks at the team. They looked sad and dejected. So she took it upon herself to try and help them. She managed to make eye contact with Puck and gestured for him to follow her.

They go inside of the school.

'Couldn't resist me, could you?' Puck asks with his usual boyish smirk.

She smiles. 'You could say that.' She doesn't know what comes over her or why she does it but she steps towards him and kisses him. Once they pull away Puck speaks.

'W-What was that for?'

'Just showing you what you could get on our date if you win the game.' She replied.

He smiled and kisses her again. She smiles into the kiss. As soon as the pull away Puck walks back outside.

'Where are you going?' She calls after him.

'I have a football game to win.' He says without looking back.

Quinn walks back onto the field as the game begins. 'Can they hurry up and loose so I can go home?' Santana says while unenthusiastically cheering on the team.

'I wouldn't be so sure.' Quinn says with a grin. 'I think they're going to turn it around in this half.'
