Disclaimer: I do not own Glee.

Author's Note: Okay guys! This was a weird random idea that popped into my head. It's strange, because I usually support Brittany/Santana. Anyways, read and judge for yourself.

*~*~*

Today just wasn't Jesse's day. He really, truly did like Rachel Berry when he first met her. It was Will Schuester that ruined everything. He had to go and tell Coach Shelby, and she asked him to spy on New Directions. Jesse was blackmailed into agreeing (she threatened to kick him off Vocal Adrenaline if he didn't do it). About ten minutes ago, Rachel found out and left him for Finn. God, he had never hated Corcoran so much since she called him out on his dance steps in front of the entire fucking show choir. Things were very competitive and one misstep could get you made fun of for a while. So embarrassing. Dejectedly, he walked to his car, opened the door, and started hitting his head on the window.

*~*~*

Santana was pissed. Really, really pissed. She had just had a screaming match with Puck in front of the glee club and it was extremely humiliating. He informed her that now, in an exclusive relationship with Quinn, he would not continue doing whatever he used to do with her. Santana responded by pulling the guilt card and asked him, "So now you're too good for me?" and things went downhill from there. Eventually, they made their way to rehearsal and the ten other members – along with Mr. Schue – saw the whole thing. After the practice, Finn came up to her and said he didn't know she had still been doing stuff with Puck. He said there was no chance they could date now and left arm in arm with Rachel.

Rachel.

Santana had just lost her guy to Rachel. Freaking. Berry.

Santana hopped in her car and stepped on the gas too fast for it to be legal. To hell with Cheerios practice.

*~*~*

Jesse was a good boy. He was. It's just that today he didn't feel like maintaining that image. Besides, he was a senior in high school. It wasn't that bad. Grabbing a fake ID from the local Lima Loser, he headed off to a bar and snatched a beer. Carmel kids were known for being squeaky clean, but he had just lost a really great girl and failed his coach at the same time. Therefore, he wasn't in the mood to care. If someone saw him here, well, too fucking bad for them. Jesse was convinced Rachel might have been perfect for him, and he needed to forget it and let that all go now. Drown his sorrows, he guessed. He shouldn't be doing this, he shouldn't be doing this, he shouldn't be doing this...

Damn it, Jesse thought angrily. I'm doing that Carmel thing again where I get all preppy and worried about everything.

A sighting of a mysteriously gorgeous dark-skinned girl's arrival at the bar abruptly halted his train of thought.

*~*~*

Santana was fucking mad, and she was going to the bar again for the fourth time this month. Her parents found out last time and made her swear never to go back again; after all, she was only a sophomore. But today, she didn't care what her parents thought – so many McKinley kids do this anyways, it doesn't really matter. Frustrated, she sat on the bar stool and ordered a Scotch. The bartender turned around and she covered her face with her hands and sighed deeply, willing herself not to cry. Not here, where she could easily find someone she knows. Her life was a fucking mess. Her relationship with Puck was definitely over. Finn ditched her for someone notably less hot, and there was no way she would ever be able to face Matt now. She would probably still continue this weird...thing with Brittany, but for now, she had no boyfriend, and going around with a girlfriend would be too out of the ordinary for her. Now she wasn't an item with anyone anymore, and this would be really bad for her reputation. This wasn't how it was supposed to be. She was Santana Lopez – she was untouchable, and she could have any guy she wanted.

Well, that's what everyone thought. Things were a lot more complicated and Santana was a more confusing person than she seemed, even to Brittany, her best friend. Actually, especially Brittany; she's a sweetie, but she doesn't understand anything.

A pair of eyes meets hers. They are pretty and piercing, and they belong to a boy with thick, brown locks of hair. Still locking eyes with her, the boy gets up and walks over to Santana. They stare at each other for a second. He really is cute. He takes her hand and stares directly at her, more intently than before.

"Jesse."

So...what did you think? Tell me in a review. Jesse seems like a decent guy, and I honestly do think he's being blackmailed. If he were playing her, it would be WAY too obvious. Do you see these two working out? I don't know, LOL. I think he's too preppy for her, but nonetheless...
