Note: I don't have a plan for this, I'm just letting it take me to wherever it would like to go! I just knew I wanted to write something about Brittany S. Pierce, my favourite Glee character, so here goes...!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything unless specified.
Chapter One
"Sometimes, I dream that I'm a bird. I have white feathers, of course. I can see all the worms in the ground, but I don't want to eat them. I deserve to live, too. Why do birds eat worms, anyway? They look just like slimy fingers." Brittany says as she eats her lunch.
Santana walks into the cafeteria and sees Brittany sitting with some other guy. There are always guys sitting with her and chatting her up, it drives Santana insane. Even if they're not dating anymore, Brittany is still her best friend. They are at college together, after all. And there is the hidden hope that one day Brittany will want to be with her again.
Santana really screwed things up for them towards the end of high school. She never fully believed that Brittany was really committing to the relationship. Since Santana's secret was out, she wanted a serious relationship or nothing at all. She put too much pressure on Brittany. She of all people should know that Brittany can never make decisions under pressure, that she has to come to them all on her own. So Brittany decided that they should just be friends.
Now Santana gets to watch her flirt with college boys and have flings while she has to decide whether she will hide her sexual orientation and feel like she's in high school all over again, or just tell the world and deal with the consequences.
"Santana!" Brittany waves to her best friend and makes room for her on the table.
Santana sits beside Brittany and smiles coldly at the boy. He's not too bad. Good physique, nice hair, even the glasses make him look cute. Nice eyes, too. But Santana prefers the redhead who she can see past his left shoulder...
"This is Jared," Brittany interrupts Santana's perve, "Jared this is Santana, my best friend."
Brittany can see the look in Santana's eye and she greets Jared. She knows that he'll be threatened later, but she's okay with it. In Brittany's mind, if your friend isn't threatening anyone who tries to get close to you, then they're not really your friend. Because friends would do anything for each other, even the really bad, gruesome stuff. Like dipping your hand into a bucket full of maggots.
"Excuse me, I've got a team to yell at." Santana says before she leaves the table.
Her team isn't a cheerleading team, believe it or not. Brittany is on the squad, but Santana wasn't interested. Being in The Troubletones gave Santana a taste of leading a Glee Club without having Rachel Berry in the way, and she really liked it. She signed up for the Glee Club on the second day at college and became the leader on the third day. Brittany joins in whenever she likes.
"So, where were we..." Jared starts.
"Do you really need glasses?" Brittany asks.
The question throws Jared and he looks around the area briefly as he frowns. Brittany's look of subtle curiosity never changes.
"Uhh... Well..." Jared takes the glasses off and smiles sheepishly, "No."
"Then why do you wear them?" She grabs the glasses from him and puts them on herself. The lens is clear, fake, anyone could wear them.
"Well, I think they make me look cool." Jared says.
"You should just wear what you want, not what you think makes you look good." Brittany stands up and gives the glasses back to Jared. She takes her chocolate milkshake and leaves him there with a dumbfounded look.
Brittany would never date a guy who couldn't truly accept himself.
Note: I still have no idea where this is going! Please review and let me know if you are interested in me continuing. I won't continue unless I know there is interest for it. :)
