A SMIRK FROM THE PAST

Santana takes another shot, New York in the middle of January really have a cold weather. Besides, she's all alone for the entire night or maybe for a week later or maybe for the rest of her life, whatever… she just doesn't care. She and Brittany had a wonderful moment in McKinley High School but no one could predict what happen in future. After school graduation, she and Brit left Ohio going to New York. Chasing their dream, work in a big fashion magazine, becoming a socialite, and spend the rest of their lives together just like a normal couple. That's why she chosen New York.

But things aren't going as smooth as they want. 6 months ago, they choose to break up because Brit admitted that she still had an interesting in man and somehow need them in her life. She loves Santana very much, but at that moment Santana realized that Brittany didn't choose the same way as she did. So, here she is, alone.

"What a mess I just saw" A voice of hot guy wakes her up (Santana have a lot experience dating a hot guy she even can recognize them by the voice). What the f*** is this guy doin'. Can't he just left her alone? Santana give a look to that guy and turn around her face immediately. That's smirk, that sarcastic tone, she knows it very well.

"What are you doing in here Warbler?" Santana takes another shot after she saw her enemy from the past, Sebastian Smythe. The Warbler's captain who slushed Blaine with salt rock, and slushed her too after she beat him in their singing duel.

"It seems like my name has poison to you, Santana Lopez"

"So, you remember me, warbler. It makes me feel so precious as an enemy"

Sebastian smirks again, before he says

"Seeing you again, remind me why I hate you so much, after that boy with girl dress of course" of course with a gentle sarcastic tone.

"Well, don't be surprise because actually our relationship was only consist by hate, Sebastian Smythe" Santana give a deep sinister tone when she mentions his name "And he's name is Kurt Hummel, okay".

"At least I know that you're still remember me, makes me feel so precious"

"You know, if you want a fight, I'll tell you, I'm not in that mood. And because we don't have any happy go go relationship to remember, would you mind to leave me alone"

"Uh…" He quiets in a moment, looking Santana in sad expression. "I hate to tell you this, but actually I come here to invite you to drink together at my table. I don't like to see you look pitiful as much as I don't like to see you look happy. Just think about that…"

And then he goes. Santana rubs her forehead and takes a sneak peak at Sebastian back. He's right, look pitiful is really not her. She is Santana, a girl who could torture all McKinley High students. So she must take a step away from this miserable moment.

Sebastian was working on his paper when Santana sit right in front of him.

"So, you're alone too" she said

"Not because I am but because I want to be alone. I'm a smart hot rich guy, girls will lining up when they see me sit alone. But unfortunately, I don't like it!"

"Because you're gay"

"Just like you"

"It seems to me that you cover up the fact that you are gay"

"I admit I'm gay, but it doesn't mean I have to tell it to every person I ever met. My friends in college know and they cool about that. I'm not the one who had problem in here" Then he gives her that smirk again. "So what's happen to you? Did she dump you for another man?"

"How did you…?"

"I guess I'm right!"

"No. She didn't dump me, we choose to separated"

"Because….?"

"That…is my own business, okay" Santana lean upon the chair, put her arms on chest, put his right leg to her left leg, lift her chin up, and give him a pejoratively look. Looking her sit like that just make him realizes why people in Ohio said that she is his twin.

"So you are on way to succes now" She asks him with her regular annoying tone "Looks like you want to follow your family path, a rich attorney from Harvard, huh?"

"I'm chasing my dream just like you did, a fashion editor magazine" He laugh at her "Give me a break…so you really want to beat a million girl, no wonder why you're so cruel."

"Me? Cruel? Do you need someone to remind you about cruelty, warbler? And how did you know…? Never mind. You are living in Massachusetts, so what are you doing in New York?"

"I just take a couple holidays to watch broadway. They perform west side story this week, kind of familiar to you?"

Santana gives him a sinister smile

"I bet you do. I love your performance as Anita back then. I mean it"

"Did you hit something on your head? Why you suddenly become Mr. Nice guy? It is not so Sebastian Smythe"

"I'm not an apologizing type, so consider is as payback what I've done to you and your friends in McKinley"

Santana smiles when Sebastian mentioned about new direction.

"Looks like you miss them so much"

"Why? I hated everyone in that club"

"Including that blonde hot girl?"

"Brittany? Now she's the one I hate the most. And Look like I need to take another shot" She calls the waitress"

"It seems to me that you still can't forget about her. Let me treat you this time, considering you're gonna need that money in future. To buy yourself a happy-related things or maybe to pay your small apartment bill"

"I know that you're such a jerk, but I can take care of my self, okay. So, mind your own business"

"Whatever, twin"

They continue their conversation after ordering 2 bottles of bir.

"So what did you do in here? Run away? I heard some rumors about you" Sebastian asks her

"Just like you do. College, studying Fashion journalism. And take some part time jobs. I told you I take care of myself. Me, doesn't need anyone"

"That's the spirit from a girl who tortured all students from her school. Cheers for the antagonist"

Santana smiles and raise her glass "Cheers".

Almost 2 hours later

Santana got really drunk, and start her drunken habit, sobbing and whining.

"That night, she just told me that she still interesting in man and can't be 100 % gay. Can you believe that? After all I've done for her, she just left me like that! Oh, no, no she didn't left me. I'm the one who told her that the best way for us was separated. I'm the one who let her go! Could you believe it?" Then she starts sobbing. "And my parents, they said they accept the fact that I'm a lesbian but everytime I came home they keep avoiding me. And my abuela, she told me not to meet her again. When all people feel so happy out there, I'm stuck here, alone, and take 3 part time job to survive" And she's crying.

Sebastian just listen all her moaning and companying her to drink for that 2 hours. This crazy mean girl, already face a bitter life. She deserves his 2 hours free time.

"I need to get home, I had a job to do tomorrow morning. Thanks for your time, twin. And this is for the bill. I told you, I will take care of myself" She pats Sebastian shoulder and takes a walk to front door.

Sebastian just smile, he takes that money. Paying all the bill with his money. On the first date, a gentleman should pay all the bill. And then he chases Santana to front door.

"Let me take you home" He holds Santana's unsteady body.

"Wow…you really become a nice guy, twin"

"Thank you" Sebastian answers that and laugh

30 minutes later

Sebastian puts Santana on his bed. On his bed, wait a minute! Yeah, He takes her to his hotel room because he doesn't know her address. Sebastian knows that she won't mind it. Santana is not sleeping yet so she just lies on his bed with weary face. When Sebastian looks at her, he must admit that she really beautiful. She always looks beautiful since high school, her tan skin, her full lips, her cheek, her sexy slim body, she's kind of an attractive Spanish brunette.

Meanwhile, Santana does the same with Sebastian, she observes him carefully. His tall slim muscles body, his fashionable dandy looks, his sleek hair, those shifty eyes, and finally his smirk. He's really a typical hot villain in drama series. And suddenly she wants to do something she didn't do for a long time.

"I know what you're thinking, warbler. We share a same mind" She looks at him in the eyes. Sebastian just keeps quiet, and then walk out. He sits on the couch and closes his eyes. And then he walks to bar cabinet and drink. He brings the liquor to his bedroom.

"Such a gay. Need to drunk before make out with girl"

They gave a sinister smile to each other before doing their dirty things.

7 a.m (next morning)

Sebastian and Santana laying next to each other with only a sheet covering up their body. They already wake up, doing nothing but stare at the platform.

"How do it feel?" Santana ask him

"It's quite interesting but still not satisfying"

"uh-huh, I know you're gonna say that"

"But from all my sex with girls experience, you are the most satisfied"

"same in here"

"And I like to try it again"

Then she just smirk.

"I think I want to take a bath. Your disgusting smell is all over my body" Santana get up and run her fingers though her messy hair. Looking her like that just make Sebastian wants to grab her to his bed again. What was I thinking? He asks himself.

"Please don't use the bathtub. I need to keep it clean, especially from a drunken pitiful girl like you"

Santana just give him her middle finger, and he just smile.

15 minutes later, Santana comes out from bathroom, feeling so pure clean and happy. Sebastian is not in that room anymore, maybe he get some breakfast. Santana search for her clothes all over the room but can't find any piece of them.

"Warbler, do you see my clothes?"

"I ask the maid to take it"

"Are you nuts? And how am I supposed to work without wear anything?"

"Are you sure you still want to wear those things. Your vomit is all over them"

"So what? are trying to decide which clothes is right for me now? Arggh… I think I'm need some of your clothes"

"Serve yourself"

This young man really makes her going crazy. The only thing she wants to do is getting out from this hell. But when she opens his wardrobe, she found a new girl dress complete with a coat for winter hanging among man's clothes. She just laughs, that jerk.

8.16 a.m

Santana and Sebastian come out from hotel main entrance. Dress perfectly like celebrity.

"I don't believe I'm saying this, but thank you for everything, warbler"

"It's okay, it's quite experience spent a night with you"

And then they laugh again.

"So… that's it"

"Yeah"

"Bye"

"Bye"

No one knows who's the first, but now they're kissing. When Sebastian's linking his muscles arms around Santana's waist and push her body toward him, she draw herself.

"Wow…wow…Hold in there, warbler. Don't you think this is weird"

"Yes, it is"

And then they're kissing again.

"This is really getting weird. You supposed to be gay"

"And so did you"

And then they're kissing again.

"Okay, this is weird and I'm not gonna do that again especially with you" Santana let herself away from Sebastian's arms "And now I have to go or I'm gonna be late" She walks away, and before she's getting far, Sebastian yell at her.

"Hey, twin. About you're not gonna do that again with me, you want to bet?"

"How about betting that someday I'm gonna erase that smile from your face!"

Then those witty persons go separately, living a smirk on their face.
