A young Santana Lopez was stood in front of a mirror a thoughtful look upon her face.
She hadn't spoken to her girlfriend Brittany in a while, its not like Brittany hadn't tried calling Santana because she had, there was just always something stopping Santana from answering her. They had grown apart recently. In the recent past Santana had graduated… and Brittany hadn't. Brittany had always been… how to put it… different. While students were preparing for their upcoming exams Brittany was feeding, grooming and just generally taking care of her cat Lord Tubbington.
As much as Santana loved Brittany it was kind of nice to have a break from her and not have to constantly talk about Unicorns and all sorts of mystical creatures. Santana had been crashing at her high school friend Quinn Fabray's place lately. Since she rejected her scholarship to Louisville University she had been all over the place. She had never really been meant for Louisville her plans for the future went more far a field. She had been having a lot of fun with Quinn it was nice just to kick back her feet and spend time with her old friend. They had been going to the movies and having takeouts and just chatting and catching up.
When Santana had been at McKinley high school she had been a mess, she hated that school apart from glee club she never really felt she belonged. She was one of the most famous girls in the school along with Quinn and Brittany, she was always moving from one guy to another. She had always had a soft spot for Brittany but wasn't quite sure what her feelings were and how to act on them.
She had always had a suspicion she was a lesbian, it always stayed with her... yet she couldn't quite believe it, she still thought she was a normal teenage girl and acted that way and hid her feelings from the world. She came out of the closet when she was 18, not by choice, she got outed by classmate and glee club member Finn Hudson, at first it was a lot to deal with but when she realised no one really cared... things started to get easier and she knew she always had Brittany there for her. Even though everyone knew she was a lesbian she still managed to be the hottest bitch at McKinley high school.
All that mattered to her was Brittany, she never dreamed of liking anyone else, of course, Brittany is her first love and she always expected to marry Brittany but as she got older those thoughts of always being with Brittany started to change and she realised that maybe... she isn't always going to be with Brittany and that she should try dating other people. But Brittany, innocent, beautiful, sexy, cute and funny Brittany, every time that name was mentioned Santana would feel her heart pang. When she thinks about it that way, it's almost as if it is inevitable that they are always going to be together. Everyone knew that, it is Santana and Brittany, never just Santana or just Brittany, its always SantanaandBrittany.
It wasn't fair to just ignore Brittany like this, she knew she had to some how get in touch with her but there was a voice inside her head that was constantly muttering, "Don't do it San, you need your space." Santana had always believed in listening to your Conscience, so she did just that, didn't ring Brittany. She imagined Brittany sat at home stroking Lord Tubbington a single tear rolling down her face hoping and praying that the love of her life Santana Lopez would ring her at last after all this time.
Santana sighed took one last look in the mirror then turned to face the door her long brunette hair flowing behind her.
