Hey so, after writing The Band I had kind of been tossing this idea around in my head for the past few days, so I figured I'd just put it out there and see if anyone reads!
I hope you enjoy...
"Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!" Santana cried as she threw open the door to the house and ran toward the stairs, not even bothering to close the door. "I did it!" She hollered, "I friggin did it!" The door that she opened slammed against the bedroom wall causing the sleeping person to jump from the bed, waking up.
"What!" Quinn gasped as she clenched her chest catching her breath, "God, you scared me!"
"I got you signed." Santana smiled.
Quinn reached over to the table beside her bed and grabbed her glasses, "what are you talking about?" She asked as she pushed the glasses on her face.
Santana jumped on the bed excitedly, "I am a master manager and I got My Bloody Masquerade signed to a label."
Quinn's eyes widened, "you're kidding?"
"Bitch, I would not joke about this." Santana scoffed.
The blonde shook her head, "you-you're serious?"
"Bet your sweet ass I am Fabray," Santana winked.
"Oh my Go-Santana!" Quinn engulfed the Latina in a hug.
One of which Santana was happy to get.
As it turned out the whole band thing wasn't just for kicks. They started when they were seventeen during the summer before senior year; and now they were twenty-one living in a house together in Los Angeles, California.
Finn and Rachel had broken up when they graduated; she was accepted to NYADA and he really wanted to continue on with the band, while the Broadway bound girl went to New York, Finn continued on to California. They had tried for the whole long distance thing, but it really didn't work the way they had hoped it would.
Puck and Lauren had their falling out right before senior year and he was a complete sex-shark again. He partied every weekend out in L.A. and he came home with a girl practically every night he went out.
Finn joined him on some occasions.
They had ended up adding a fifth person to their band when Blaine offered his talent of guitar playing after he graduated from McKinley a year after them. He and Kurt had stayed together; they are currently continuing their relationship as Kurt attends NYADA with Rachel. They're better at the whole long distance then; better than Rachel and Finn anyway.
Brittany and Santana had ended the relationship they started during senior year when Artie and Brittany called it quits. Santana knew that something's work out in favor for a person and it just so happened to work out in favor of her when Brittany came back from Hawaii completely in love with her. However, graduation came along and Brittany was accepted into the dance program at Juilliard. Santana stayed behind to continue on with the band management.
As for Quinn and Sam, they were still standing strong. There were a few bumps along the way as they had little fights, but they always seemed to get back together. For them it always seemed like true love.
"Am I the best or what?" Santana said after a minute.
"Better than the best," Quinn said, "this is just so amazing."
"Now you're glad I woke you up," the Latina shot back as Quinn began to yawn.
The blonde nodded, "...yeah, this is so great, I kind of wanna kiss you right now."
"Well, go for it," the raven haired girl winked.
Quinn laughed pushing the girl away as she noticed she had begun to lean forward, "get outta here!" She smiled, "I can't believe you did this."
Instead of kissing she went with the safer choice and hugged her again, "oh my God! I totally love you right now!" She said.
"I love you too, Q, why else do you think I'd work this hard for the band." Santana commented.
...they were asleep an hour later, laying on the bed of Quinn's room, Santana had been too tired to get up and walk to her own room.
"No way!" Puck practically shouted as he heard the news, jumping out of his seat. His eyes were wide with excitement.
Santana nodded, "Yes, I am just that awesome."
The hazel eyed man walked right over to the Latina and pulled her in for a big bear hug.
"We're signed?" Finn asked dumbfounded.
"Yeah," Quinn whispered sitting next to him, "it's pretty awesome isn't it?"
Finn looked at her, a goofy smile appearing on his face, "we're signed!" It's like the message was just reaching his brain as he jumped up pulling Quinn with him spinning her around in a hug. "haha, we did it, we freaking did it!" He laughed.
As Quinn's feet settled back on the ground she smiled at the tall guy, "we did it." She said.
Finn continued to smile, "Sam know?"
Quinn shook her head, "not yet, I'm gonna tell him after he gets home from work."
"We're signed?" Puck asked.
Quinn nodded as she and Finn made their way over to the other two, "and get this, San here used your song to convince the label people."
Puck pointed to himself bewildered, "mine?"
Santana nodded, "yup yours, Creature."
Puck shook his head, "my song!" He smiled, "it was my song!"
"Yay you!" Quinn laughed.
Puck looked at her, "it was my song, but your voice...our music it was us." He jumped up, "we're signed!" This time it was Quinn he hugged as he bumped fists with Finn.
The excitement never wore off as Finn and Puck prepared to go to work; they worked in construction at some housing company.
"Let Blaine know!" Quinn hollered out toward them an hour later as they made their way out the door. Blaine worked with them on the construction line.
The blonde sat on the couch beside her best friend and smiled, "you're awesome." She said smiling.
Santana nodded, "I am aware."
Quinn rolled her eyes before asking, "which label?"
Santana shrugged, "it's a new one, but it already has like three success stories...it's DarkLove Records or something like that."
"DarkLove Records?" Quinn asked.
"Yes," Santana said before getting up, "you need a ride to work?"
Quinn shook her head, "I didn't know you worked today."
"You don't?"
The blonde shrugged, "I took the day off because I thought you didn't have to work...I figured we could stay together. Hang out, watch some movies and such."
The Latina sighed, defeated, "that sucks, now I'm gonna have to face the treacherous Starbucks alone...you're so rude."
Quinn shrugged, "I'm sorry, it's Friday, I thought it was your day off."
Santana rolled her eyes as she grabbed her purse from the table and prepared to leave the house.
As Santana stepped outside, Sam was coming up the stairs, "hey Trouty Mouth." The girl smiled as she passed him.
"Santana." Sam greeted, "headed to work?"
"Yeah," she pointed behind her, "Quinn's got a surprise for you."
Sam looked at her a moment, "what?"
"It's a surprise," Santana told him, "I'm not sure."
The blonde looked after her while she walked away before he turned toward the door once more, he put his hand on the doorknob and pushed his way inside.
Once he set his keys on the table beside the door he made his way into the living room where his girlfriend was, "hey," he greeted.
Quinn smiled, "hello."
Sam sat next to her before he said, "so, Santana said you have a surprise for me?"
Quinn furrowed her eyebrows before saying, "she did?"
"Do you not?" The guy wondered.
Quinn shrugged, "no I do, I mean..." She paused grabbing his hands, "I love you." She smiled.
Sam smiled too, "well, that's no surprise." He told her, "of course you love me, I'm awesome."
Quinn chuckled, "no, the real surprise is that we've been signed."
Sam's smile went away, "what?"
Quinn nodded, "I know." She shrugged, "but it's all true, Santana told me last night we told Finn and Puck earlier and they're going to tell Blaine." She smiled, "DarkLove Records has signed us."
Sam laughed, his mouth moving but he couldn't form a coherent word, instead he just leaned in and hugged her because none of it could have been possible without her. If she had never agreed to join the band, they wouldn't be where they are today.
When they pulled away Quinn smiled, "we're awesome." She whispered before leaning in and kissing him.
Later was a rehearsal, they had to practice before they went in for a meeting with the Label. Santana had told them when they were all home again that they needed to speak with the owners and show them exactly what they had.
I thought I told you before
I guess you never listen
so I pontificate more
You don't know what you're missing
My only friend is a ghost
and when I want him to appear
I do what he wants the most
and scream into the mirror
Save me from the creature that I've become
Don't think that I can
Save me
Undo all the damage he's done
When he comes around
I find the devil is right
I think that what you're saying's wrong
I do my business at night
when inhibitions are gone
I see what onlookers don't
I know exactly what you do
and escape me you won't
cause I am coming for you
Save me from the creature that I've become
Don't think that I can
Save me
Undo all the damage he's done
When he comes around you can feel the power
go hourly towering over
how does it feel
when you give up the crown
to satisfy this friend you've found
Save me from the creature that I've become
Don't think that I can
Save me
Undo all the damage he's done
When he comes around there's a possibility
that this ability comes from what he's been hiding
I can't approach him
He might discover
what's inside
Save me from the creature that I've become
Don't think that I can
Save me
Undo all the damage he's done
"Sounds awesome!" Puck said as they finished.
Blaine nodded, "we're gonna blow them away tomorrow."
Santana stood up from the couch and walked over to Quinn, "though, I think we do need a few changes."
Quinn shrugged, "like what?"
Finn shrugged standing up from his drum set, "yeah, what's up?"
Santana grabbed Quinn's arm, "you're all fine," she then looked at the hazel eyed girl, "really, all of you, but Q here's gotta change something."
"I thought she was perfect." Sam interjected.
Santana nodded, "like I said you're all fine, Quinn's just gotta change something."
"And what would that be?" Quinn wondered.
And Santana pulled her up the stairs.
Puck looked at the three remaining people within the room, "what was that about?"
Sam shrugged, "I don't know."
Finn sat back down and started hitting the drums a bit, "should we practice more?"
"Our singer's gone," Blaine pointed out.
The tallest guy shrugged, "yeah, but we can all sing, so we could just practice with our voices."
Sam shrugged, "yeah, that'll work," he said looking away from the stairs, "Puck, you got it?"
The mo-hawked guy just shrugged, "sure."
And they started the song again.
So...reviews would be lovely, I do plan on continuing, but only if people want me too, so please leave a review/comment and let me know what you think...
...thanks again...
