ghosts that we knew will flicker from you

"Not even close, Not even a little bit, Not even at all." George Fabray | Intern

You & Me

Puck slid his arm around her, squeezing gently. He kissed the top of her head. “So should you, when you’re hungry.” He replied with a smile. Puck wasn’t going to push her, but he’d sure be there when she was ready. There had been too many times when he wasn’t there for her, but he knew that had to change quickly. “Is there anything you wanna do today?”

[georgefabray]

George let out a content sigh as Puck wrapped his arm around her feeling comfortable even more so. “I’m not hungry,” she mumbled again against his chest. She definitely did’t feel like eating now and probably wouldn’t anytime soon based on what she was feeling and had been through. As Puck asked if there was anything in particular she wanted to do, George just wrapped her arms tighter around him burring her face even deeper on his torso. “I don’t want to leave.”

[georgefabray]

You & Me

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Puck nodded obediently, finishing up cooking. “Just let me know when you’re hungry and I’ll make you something.” Switching off the gas to the stove, he turned his head smiling at her. “Do I get a good morning hug…?” He knew she’d still be sore after her ordeal, but he wanted to comfort her best as he could. 

[georgefabray]

George nodded, still looking at him from the door. “You can eat. Should eat.” She said, not knowing if he was just waiting her to eat something or if he had already ate by this point. Walking to where he was standing, George wrapped her arms around him, closing her eyes as she rested her head against his chest and inhale his scent, something she didn’t realize she had missed all this much until it was capable of bring her as much comfort as she needed, like now.

[georgefabray]

You & Me

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Puck had risen early that morning, the thought of George’s ordeal making it difficult for him to get much rest. Just seeing Daniels face in his mind put him in a bad mood. So he decided to make them breakfast, to make himself useful. Leaving George to get some rest, he kissed her cheek gently and made his way into the kitchen. 

As soon as he heard the footsteps behind him, he couldn’t help the smile that spread on his lips. “"Hey beautiful.” He smiled turning to her. “"You hungry?”

[georgefabray]

It was no surprise to find Puck in the kitchen. It wouldn’t be the first time to find the man there trying to be useful while he was stressed or over something. She knew this whole thing put a tool on him as well and the fact that he was just trying to protect her from showing didn’t take away the fact that she knew him oh so well.

Leaning against the door frame, George slightly shook her head as she looked at him, feeling her body tired and sore meaning that the few hours she slept weren’t quite enough yet. “Not really.” she replied, biting her bottom lip, wincing as she felt a sore spot she didn’t realize she was left with. “It smells great, though.”

[georgefabray]

You & Me

George had absolutely no idea what time it was when she woke up on that particular morning. The room was surrounded in darkness still and the bed she was laying, was empty. The person she had been sharing it for the past hours was no longer there. As she laid in bed complete alone and quietly, she thought about everything that happened in the past hours, what she did and where she was and wondered what would happen now. She knew she couldn’t be here, with Puck forever, sooner than later she would need to face reality, she would need to face Daniel and that was what frightened her the most. After some time -that she didn’t know how long, George got out of the bed and padded out of the room, towards the living room where she expected to find Puck or at least know his whereabouts.

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Following her lead, Puck laid down beside her and wrapped an arm round her to cuddle in. “I’m right here if you need me Fabray.” He emphasised with a small squeeze so she could feel him cuddled against her. He subtly watched her, willing himself not to fall asleep until she got some rest.

[georgefabray]

Pulling the arm that was wrapped around her tighter, George pressed her back against his and closed her eyes, knowing that whatever happened tonight, she would be safe by having him by her side the whole time. “Don’t leave me...” she whispered against her pillow.

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Puck shook his head, and kissed her as softly as he could. He didn’t want to cause anymore upset or damage. “If you’re sure, that’s okay by me Georgie.” He shook his head adamantly at her reasoning. “I’m not letting him take shit away from you, or away from whatever we are, I can promise you that much.” He never made many promises because he didn’t like making promises he couldn’t commit to, but Puck knew he wouldn’t let things get any worse for George. “Just relax G, okay?”

[georgefabray]

George hold her breath as Puck kissed her, licking her lips as soon as he pulled back. She didn’t know if Puck actually meant the words or was just saying that to not cause any distress on her, but either was the case, she wasn’t going to argue in any way. Nodding at his request, George once more wrapped her arms around him, giving him a squeeze, before pulling back and laying down on the bed on her side, waiting for him to join her.

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

“I…” Puck tried to protest but he knew when her hand went over the box it was no good. Instead, he sat the box down on the nightstand, and climbed back onto the bed. “I thought bout giving it to you for a long time.” He confessed simply. “But after tonight I got reminded it’s not a husband you need right now. So don’t think of it as a proposal G. It’s a promise ring. So when you see it you’ll be reminded of my promise to always help you and shit.” He sighed under his breath, he wanted to keep his cheesy speech clean but he couldn’t help himself. “Look, I’ll leave it there and if you still don’t want it tomorrow, it’s cool. It don’t matter.”

[georgefabray]

George knew she had said the wrong thing the minute he sat the box back on the nightstand and the look in his eyes was the last thing she asked for. “Puck, please, don’t be upset at me. I just...I love that ring, I always thought of how things would be and this is not how I imagined it being. I appreciate what you are trying to do, but please, don’t use that ring with those intentions. That ring is not meant to be a promise ring and you know that. I know that. I just, don’t let him take that moment from us, please.” George knew she was probably asking too much from him in this exact moment, but if they would ever do that one day, she wanted it to be done right.

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Kissing both of her cheeks, he smiled and moved himself out from underneath her. “Dont move, okay?” Puck slid off the bed and walked over to his dresser, pulling open his sock drawer. He returned to the bedside, kneeling down and opened the box in front of her. “I’m not asking you to marry me.” He let out a small chuckle. “But this ring is to remind you that I’ll always be here for you Georgie, no matter what okay? You can always tell me anything, and I’ll always protect you.”

[georgefabray]

George frowned as Puck moved away from her not knowing what he was going to do, especially after her request of having him by her side right now. As she saw what he was doing, her eyes widened and she panicked, he had mentioned a ring before, she just didn’t expect him to give it to her now of all times. It wasn’t right. “I don’t..I don’t want it,” she whispered putting her hand over the box he had in hands, looking down at him and seeing his surprise. “Don’t give me this ring just because...just because of it. Please. Don’t let Daniel ruin this for me too.”

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

“Hey George, look at me.” He moved his chest away from her, tilting her chin up to look at him. He looked her straight in the eyes. “What I wanted wasn’t what we wanted. I wasn’t gonna force you. Besides, you’re here now. That’s all that matters.” His thumbs rubbed the tears on her cheeks. “I love you and that’s all that matters to me now.” Puck’s eyes drifted to his dresser, knowing what was buried inside his sock drawer. “You are all that matters.” He smiled at her, his eyes fixing back to her.

[georgefabray]

Even though she didn’t want to look at Puck right now, she allowed him to tilt her chin up so she could look straight in his eyes as well. Even though Puck was right over that, it wasn’t totally the truth. George wanted him, she always had and always will and if she hadn’t been so stubborn to the point of not giving in that time, not give in completely, things would’ve been so much different than what they were right now. Hearing him say those three words constantly made George want to repeat them for him, but right now they wouldn’t have the same meaning as his.

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Puck kissed the top of George’s head, breathing her in as he wrapped his arms around her. “Why are you sorry…? The only person who has to be sorry is him.” Puck dared not even speak his name as they were both already too aware of who he meant. “This aint your fault G.”

[georgefabray]

George let out a small breath of relief as Puck wrapped his arms around her, pressing herself closer to him in that moment. “If I had given you what you wanted, this..us...” her voice died down and she started to cry again. This whole thing was her fault, Puck liking to admit it or not. If she had broken things off with Daniel when Puck showed up, they wouldn’t be having this conversation nor she’d be in this situation. It is all her fault

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

“Shuffle up here with me.” He smiled, sitting back against the headboard. “It’s not just your face Georgie. Inside too.” Seeing Daniel’s face in his mind never failed to make him angry but he knew he had to rise above. “I’ll never let anything else happen to you.”

[georgefabray]

George did as she was told and leaned against Puck, sitting on his lap sideways, resting her head against his chest as she closed her eyes wrapping her arms around his waist. “I’m sorry...”

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Puck sat forward, his eyes watching George. “Relax Georgie, I’m here and I’m going nowhere. Always.” He switched on the lamp above the bed and switched out the main lights. “G you’re beautiful. You always will be, you need to know that. No matter what.”

[georgefabray]

George nodded, letting out a shaky breath looking at him as he switched the lights that way. ”I am not beautiful. Not right now. What is the point of being beautiful if things like this happen?” She asked feeling the shakiness in he voice coming back.

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Looking cautiously over his shoulder, he pushed himself up against the headboard and stretched out his legs. “Come here babe.” He encouraged her, wiggling his finger for her to come closer. Puck thought he was going to spend the night on the couch, but something told him that plan was going to change.

[georgefabray]

George watched all of Puck’s moves quietly wondering what he was thinking about. As soon as he pushed himself against the headboard and called for her, George walked closer to him, sitting at the edge of the bed by his side, looking down at her hands for a moment before facing him again.

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Puck turned back, seeing the panic in her eyes. He nodded quickly, shutting the bedroom door again. “I’m not going anywhere, I promise.” He made his way back to the bed, sitting on the side and facing the wall. Averting his eyes, he looked down. “I’ll let you get dressed, but I’m here if you need me.” He spoke quietly to reassure her.

[georgefabray]

The fact that Puck was staying calmed George down, but when he simply looked away as told her to get dressed, she felt self conscious about her appearance all over again. Scared of what her being undressed could cause to him, she turned around and quickly changed in the clothes he laid off for her, with her back turned towards him in complete silence. George was disgusted by herself way enough so maybe not see the disgust in Puck’s eyes was a good thing after all.

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Leading George back to the bedroom, the clothes were still laid out on the bed. “I’ll let you get changed. Are you tired? I can let you get some rest if you are…” He spoke hanging onto the door handle. “I’ll be on the couch, if you need anything, I’ll just be down the hall.”

[georgefabray]

George panicked the minute Puck pulled back from her. The idea of being alone, on her own scared her more than anything in this particular moment. Being alone meant Daniel would be around and that was something George couldn’t stand in this particular moment. “Don’t. Please don’t leave me,” she pleaded with a quiet voice looking at him with teary eyes. She was very aware of the fact that only a towel was surrounding her body, but Puck had seen all of her already, had seen even more than many others in her life. She had nothing to hide.

[georgefabray]

My Safe Harbor

[pantherpuckerman-deactivated201]

Grabbing a towel off the nearby rail, Puck helped her to stand and wrapped her arms around his neck. Carefully he helped her out of the bath and wrapped the towel around her to help her dry off. He simply held her for a moment, kissing her temple softly. “I’ve got you now Georgie, nobodys gonna hurt you.”

[georgefabray]

George clung to Puck as he helped her stand, keeping her arms around him so she would still have some leverage over him as he got her out of the bath and dried her off with the towel. She didn’t had in her to push him away or to move, so she only held to that man pressing her face to his chest as she believed, really believed in every single one of the words he was saying to her.
