A/N: I was listening to an old Toby Keith song, called 'Huckleberry', and thought that it would make a cute one shot for Puck and Rachel. Takes place during Season One when Puck and Rachel briefly dated. Instead of "Caroline", Puck serenades Rachel singing "Huckleberry". But, note, I changed the "Huckleberry" to of course, Puckleberry. Enjoy!

**********************************

Puck and Rachel were in her bedroom after school working on a song for Glee. Puck was getting restless, and set his guitar down. Rachel was at her mirror with brush in her hand pretending it was a microphone.

Even though she was obnoxious and loud and occasionally made him want to set himself on fire, Rachel Berry, his fellow hot new, well was actually kind of hot. Puck had been so occupied with thoughts of Quinn, he never really took the time to get to know McKinley High's resident Diva. The girl could definitely sing.

Puck: Rach, I am getting tired can we take a break?

Rachel: Um sure. What do you want to do?

Puck: We could make out...

Rachel: Yeah sure.

The next thing Puck knew he was rolling around on Rachel's bed making out. She had the softest lips, and not so weird after all. Thoughts of Quinn went away, but he's pretty sure Rachel was wishing he was Finn. Don't get him wrong, Finn Hudson was his best friend and wingman, but he was a dumbass when it came to women. He didn't deserve Quinn and definitely not Rachel. He treated Rachel like dirt. Maybe, he, Noah Puckerman was the better choice for her. He felt bad for the way he's treated her. Maybe he will bring her a grape slushy to her and maybe sing a song for her in Glee.

As they kissed, Rachel suddenly pictured herself with Finn instead of Noah. She felt guilty even thinking of Finn who was so devoted to that icy bitch Quinn Fabray. And why is she kissing Puck of all guys, and actually liking it. Wait What?! Rachel Berry and Mr. Badass? Puckleberry? Sounds like a new type of jelly. Plus his mom always liked Rachel because of the "nice Jewish Girl" thing.

Rachel pulled away, and Puck had a look of confusion.

Puck: What's wrong babe?

Rachel: It's nothing, it's getting late and my dads will be home soon.

Puck: And....I'm not Finn.

Rachel: And ...I'm not Quinn or Santana.

Puck: Very true. I'm here with Rachel Berry and feels nice. But, it's okay I've got to go. I'll see you at school tomorrow .

Rachel kissed him again, and said good night as Puck left. Puck was disappointed but had a plan for Rachel at school tomorrow. Operation Puckleberry begins now.
