A.N.: To all those that thought this was over, YOU'VE BEEN TROLLED BABY. (-Naya Reference!) Besides, Puck "loved" her and Santana needs to understand why he did what he did. He also has to find a way to apologize.
Disclaimer: 2nd Pop song goes to Taylor Swift, and the characters to Ryan Fucking Murphy.
The next day wasn't awkward, so much it was exhausting. So when Glee finally rolled around, even Rachel slumped into the class five minutes late. No one had the energy to do anything. That's why Puck and Santana had to respectively find motivation to sing the songs they prepared.
When Mr. Schue finally showed, Puck took it upon himself to stand in front of the room. Everyone immediately gave him their attention not having the energy to do much else.
"This is for Quinn. I know we're over and I'm accepting that." he muttered looking solely at the blonde that had a slumping Latina in her lap. Slowly strumming his prized guitar, Puck opened his mouth and shocked everybody.
I'm so glad you made time to see me
How's life? Tell me, how's your family
I haven't seen them in a while
You've been good, busier than ever
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up, and I know why
Because the last time you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind
You gave me roses, and I left them there to die
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in front of you, saying I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I go back to December all the time
These days, I haven't been sleeping
Staying up, playing back myself leaving
When your birthday passed, and I didn't call
Think I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
And realized I loved you in the fall
And then the cold came, the dark days
When fear crept into my mind
You gave me all your love, and all I gave you was goodbye
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in front of you, saying I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time
I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile
So good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking
Probably mindless dreaming
But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right
I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand
This is me swallowing my pride
Standing in front of you, saying I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time, all the time
Puck slowly strummed the last few chords and cleared his throat awkwardly.
"Yeah. That was it." As he climbed the risers to his seat, he caught Santana's eye, who had sat up some time during the performance. That little exchange was enough for them to have a mutual understanding and enough for the Glee Clubbers to have a complete social meltdown.
Ignoring the crowd of shocked faces, Santana realized that Puck sung the song to have closure, not to be an ass or try to get Quinn back. From this song, Puck realized how badly he screwed up and it was his way of apologizing to both of them. He also found his closure in showing Santana that he was not a threat, only a passing soul.
Quinn looked in on the exchange and smiled. This was all she ever really wanted. Well, that and for Santana to be her girlfriend. She discretely pulled out her phone.
As Puck sat down, he got a text.
Baby Mama: Thanks Puck. You really are an okay guy.
Puck sighed and turned when Blaine patted him on the shoulder.
"You did a good thing man." the hobbit boy gave a small, sympathetic smile. Puck looked over to Quinn and Santana who had returned to their cuddling.
"I know man, ...I know."
A.N.: Awww, guys look! A mature, nice guy Puck. :) I'd say my work with this is accomplished. *Draws a check mark in the air.* It's sad because I only used hella spaces to make it looks longer :x. Also, I just really feel like that would still be Quinn's name in his phone. :P Oh, before I forget, review whether or not I should make this a three-piece and add Santana's part and if yes... what song would you like to see her sing?
