Summary: Puck had to get away from Lima, and away from the person he loved but couldn't have.
I hate you
The words were still fresh in your mind.
I’ve always hated you.
You know that what you said wasn’t true, but he didn’t.
I never want to see you again.
You shouldn’t have said them but you couldn’t deal with them calling you names and making your life miserable.
Every time I said “I love you”, it was a lie.
You had to tear him down so that he would hate you.
It was all a joke.
Better him to hate you and be glad you’re gone than to love you and pine for you.
I only dated you so I could hurt you.
You didn’t expect him to take your words so personally.
Just get away from me!
You didn’t expect them to hurt so much
I never want to see you again.
So much pain that you didn’t think you’d be happy again.
~~~---~~~
You had to get out of that town. You had to get away from those people. From the one person you truly cared about but couldn’t be with.
You put more pressure on the gas pedal as you think about your last conversation with Kurt. All those horrible things you had told him. All those horrible things that weren’t true. You had to say them though or everyone at school would have made your life a living hell. You couldn’t deal with that. You’re use to being the one in charge. You need to be the one in charge. Too many times when you were younger you weren’t in charge and too many times you got hurt.

”Noah?”
You put more pressure on the gas pedal.
”Get away from me”
You can’t get away fast enough.
”Noah, what happened?”
They hurt me bad baby, and threatened to hurt you too.
”I got sick of acting like I actually care about you.”
It wasn’t an act. You care about him more than you should.
”It wasn’t an act.”
He was right, but you couldn’t tell him so.
”Oh please, like I could actually like a queer like you.
You knew that the last line would push him over the edge.

You had to get out of that town. You had to get away from those people. From the one person you truly cared about but couldn’t be with.
The words had hit you harder than you thought they would because when you got home you were almost in tears. You went to your room, packed your bag up with clothes and went straight to your car. You threw your bag in the back seat and got in. You stared at the steering wheel for a few seconds before turning the key and driving away.
You plan on living with your aunt and uncle for a few days, maybe weeks, maybe months. You called them as soon as you were out of Ohio and they had agreed, so long as you tell your mother. Which you did, which only brought on tears. She wasn’t happy about it, but she claimed to understand. So, you stayed with your aunt and uncle and went to a high school in their town until you graduated.
After you graduated you ended up going to Auburn with an undecided major. You worked hard because you knew that’s what Kurt would have wanted you to do. You haven’t returned to Lima since the day you broke up with Kurt.
