Finn and Santana walked hand in hand through Lima's mall, smiling up at one another. Santana's Cheerios uniform swished around her legs as she walked. She couldn't be more happy that she was officially dating the quarterback, and super amazing, Finn Hudson. After she took his v-card the previous week, she felt a connection, and they got together.
The two of them went to the food court, and Finn got them a large chocolate milkshake to share. The two straws were in the cup, and they smiled at one another, each teen taking a large sip. Santana and Finn both loved chocolate shakes. They had more flavor and awesome than the other flavors.
Santana's eyes roamed the area of the mall, groaning when she saw a group of guys walking over to them. Santana recognized these assholes, she'd slept with them all. They were on the hockey team. God, why were they coming over there?
"Lopez, what's crackin'?"
Santana and Finn both looked up at the four teenage boys standing around their table.
"What the hell do you want?"
"Chill babe, just coming over to see if you want us to take you away from this bozo and have a little fun."
Santana shook her head, looking at Finn. Finn looked back at Santana, his eyes telling her he'd handle it.
"Back off guys, that's my girlfriend."
"Woah. Hudson scored big. Too bad he probably isn't that.. BIG, if you know what I mean."
Finn looked at them in disbelief. Had they really just said that to him?
"Finn is huge asshole, bigger than the four of you combined. So you can just walk away. Go be douches somewhere else."
"Hold on baby. You'll get fed up with him soon enough."
Finn was fuming at these boys. And now he was going to let them have it.
"You puckheads are NOTHING. You've got Sue's newly promoted head Cheerleader, and the quarterback of the football team, and nothing will break us. I love Santana, and I'm going to do everything in my damn power to keep her safe from assholes like you. She had sex with you, great, but she's not interested. Now if you'll excuse us."
Finn grabbed the milkshake, and Santana's hand, and walked away, going in another direction in the mall. He was sure he might have overstepped by saying he loved her. They had only been dating about a week, and that was a big thing to admit to a girl.
"Finn, hold on."
Santana walked them over to the side, and stood in front of him, her hands placed softy on his chest.
"Did you actually mean it? That you love me?"
"Yeah, I did."
Santana smiled, leaning in to give him a kiss.
"Good. Because despite the fact that I feel like a total sap, I love you too."
Finn kissed Santana again, pulling her closer. The two of them continued walking through the mall, keeping their eyes peeled for the guys again. The crossed paths multiple times, each time resulting in Finn getting sad, mad and hurt.
On the way out, Santana held on to Finn's arm, not letting go. They walked though the parking lot together, and Finn stopped them outside the car.
"San, I need to know."
"Know what?"
"If you meant everything you said to them…"
"I did…"
"Even the stuff about sex? Because Rachel told me the insult you said to her about me in bed."
"Well shit. But I mean what I said to those guys."
"Well, good."
"My place, or yours?"
"Either."
"Come to my place Finnocence. I want to give you another round from the other night. Then I want you to spend the night and cuddle."
