Never in all her life did Rachel Berry ever think that she would be one to stand and stare at the ex-cheerleader Santana Lopez like she was doing in that very moment. The said girl was constantly making fun of the way she looked in her clothing, the nicknames, the glares and of course all the slushies that had been thrown in her face over the years. Can't forget those! Then again, those did stop once Santana and the other two cheerleaders had joined Glee. Rachel only wished that the other jocks would follow suit but they didn't. The tiny Diva had never thought that she would ever be staring at another girl like she was. Sure she was standing infront of her locker, trying to make it look as though she was busy trying to re-organize it but she was failing miserably. Her eyes couldn't be more glued to the opposite side of the hallway where the beautiful Latina was currently standing just a few feet down from her.
The taller girl was standing at her own locker re-applying some lip gloss to her lips, using the mirror that was hanging on the door of her locker. It wasn't clear if the ex-cheerio knew that she was being watching or not because she wasn't showing any signs that she knew that the Diva was keeping a close eye on her. It wasn't long after the lip gloss was tossed back into Santana's locker that the door to the locker was slammed shut, causing Rachel to jump a bit and quickly focus on her own locker. It was hard trying to look away from her point of interest but she knew if she wanted to live, she had to look away. Who knows what the other girl would have done if she had known that Rachel Berry had been staring at her for the past ten mintues.
She had it bad. She couldn't believe it but she also couldn't quite deny it either. She had a crush on Santana Lopez. Not by choice. By the feelings that had taken a life of its own. It was a feeling unlike something she had ever experienced before and it quickly made its way throughout her entire body. This wasn't something she had felt with Jesse St. James. Or with Finn Hudson! Both of these front men were the guys she had once gallen in love with. It was love, right? Of course it was. It had to have been. Why else would it have hurt so bad when the relationships had fallen apart. Doesn't matter anyway, she was back together with Finn. The male lead of the New Directions. Who has finally come to his senses and broke up with Quinn.
How could something like this happen? Well, in order for that question to be answered...a little trip down memory lane is in order.
Last Saturday Night.
With parents out of the house for an entire weekend, it was only the right thing to do by holding a party at the said house. Right? It's what most teenage boys thought. So that was exactly what Mike Chang had decided to do when he found out that his parents were going to be gone. Leaving him all alone. But he was a smart asian teenager, knowing if he knew a big bash with all his fellow football buddies and all the other popular kids that things were going to go down really quickly. Meaning something was going to get broke. which lead to Mike holding a Glee Club party. They were his closest friends anyway. Besides, it was the last weekend before their senior year started up, meaning it was their last year together. He had to throw a party were they could all get together and hang out before school began.
The part thus far was a huge success. Everyone from the club had shown up and were having a great time from the moment they walked inside the home. It was nothing like the party that had been held by Rachel the previous year, which only got fun the moment Puck was able to convince her to allow him to break into her dads liquor cabinet. With the promise to replace everything before they had come back from their trip. At Mike's party, everyone had instant acess to alcohol, music and food that everyone could actually eat. Not saying that the Diva didn't serve food, just not the kind that everyone wanted to eat.
Sometime during the fun, everyone had gathered around in a circle on the floor much like they had done at Rachel's house. It had been suggested by someone that they play spin the bottle again. Tina sat herself next to Mike, who was sitting beside Blaine. Next to him was Kurt who was sitting besides Merecedes. She was sitting next to her new boyfriend Sam. On the other side of him was Rachel who sat next to her boyfriend Finn. He was sitting besides Quinn who was sitting next Artie. Brittany of course was besides him and next to her was Santana.
The game seemed to be going pretty well, considering no one was really getting to kiss the person they really wanted to. For instance; Tina wanted to kiss her boyfriend Mike but the bottle landed on Sam. Brittany was hoping she would get to kiss Artie but ended up having to kiss Blaine. It was now Rachel's turn and she really hoped that luck would change and she would get to kiss Finn. She reached forwards and spun the bottle infront of her and sat back, watching along with everyone else as it slowed to a stop...right on Santana!
Rachel's eyes went wide when it had registered in her mind who the bottle had just landed on. She quickly began to shake her head and looked around to everyone but Santana, pleading with them to let her spin again. But it was useless, no one would allow her to have that option. It was either kiss the Latina or she would have to strip down, which meant that Santana had to do it as well. Though, the ex-cheerleader was clearly more comfortable with her body compared to Rachel, she knew that undressing infront of everyone wasn't an option. She hasn't even allowed Finn to see much of her body let alone the whole Glee club! Which meant, she was going to have to kiss Santana Lopez!
When Rachel made eye contact with Santana, the Latina was smirking seductively at her as she slowly began to crawl towards her. "Come on, Hobbit. You know you want to kiss me." She said in a seductive voice while wiggling her brows then stopping just infront of the shorter girl.
Chancing a quick glance at her boyfriend Finn for approval. Taking note that he didn't look too comfortable with the idea that his girlfriend was about to kiss the girl he had lost his virginity to but he gave her a small shrug because he knew that Rachel wasn't wanting to strip down infront of the club. She turned back to face Santana who was even more closer than she had been a few seconds prior to her glancing at Finn. She took in a deep breath and leaned forwards and allowed her lips to gently brush up against the taller girl's lips.
Believing that was all that was needed to count as a kiss, Rachel began to pull away but was stopped by the feel of a hand that had slid to the back of her neck and gently tugged her closer to the Latina. Causing her lips to really press against the other girl's lips. Her had instantly lifted up to rest on one of Santana's shoulders to try and push her back but at the feel of the other girl's tongue swipe against her lips, Rachel responded without thinking and allowed her mouth to open.
Santana immediately took advantage of the mouth that had been opened up to her, sliding her tongue into Rachel's mouth as she moved her body closer to the smaller girl. Both seemed to be lost within the kiss. Forgetting about the others that sat there watching with wide eyes and jaws that were touching the floor. The Latina's free hand gently rested on the Diva's thigh and slid up to the girl's hip. It wasn't until the two were pried apart by Finn who had been trying to get Rachel's attention once the kiss had turned to a full blown make out session that had been initiated by Santana.
The moment they were successfully pulled away from one another, the two girl's slowly opened their eyes and stared deeply into the other's dark hues. It was as if they were seeing each other for the first time in a whole new light. They were still very much in their own world until Rachel's eyes snapped away when she was jerked away.
"Hey!" Rachel yelled out in protest, ripping her arm away from Finn who had pulled her to her feet. She held her shoulder and rubbed it gently.
Santana jumped up from her position and looked at the smaller girl who was holding her shoulder than over to Finn. "What the hell is your problem Finnocence?"
"Your making out with my girlfriend!" He snapped.
"So?" She asked nonchalantly while looking up at him. "We're playing spin the bottle. It's how you play the game. Duh!" with that she rolled her eyes and turned to Rachel. "You okay, Tiny?"
Rachel just looked at her and nodded her head with a small smile. "Yes, I'm quite alright. Thank you, Santana." She responded softly then let her eyes wander to the others that were sitting there in a circle before looking up at Finn. "I think I've had enough fun for one night. Will you please take me home, Finn?"
"Yeah." He nodded his head then placing his hand on the small of her back to lead her out of the room while his cold glare burned into Santana as they walked away.
Present Day
There it was. The cat was finally out of the bag. The answer to the question that Rachel had been asking herself for the past couple of days since the moment she left Mike Chang's party. It was that kiss she had shared with the other girl! There had been a spark. No, fireworks! Definately fireworks. The Diva wouldn't even dare to try and compare it to the ones that she shares with Finn. She only wished there could be something done about this whole situation she found herself in. She couldn't go up to Santana, knowing that the Latina would probably yell at her for talking to her. Whether it was in public or not.
Rachel was trying desperately hard to keep her focus on anything and everything that was inside of her locker. Hoping that Santana didn't catch her staring a few moments ago. But of course, she couldn't help but let her brown hues turn to glance at the other girl out of the corner of her eye. It was just in time because Santana was walking down the hall and as she got closer, she locked eyes with the smaller girl, giving her a smirk and a wink before disappearing down the hall.
'She just winked at me.' Rachel said to herself in her mind. She couldn't breath in that moment at registering that Santana delibrately looked her way and winked at her. 'What does this mean? Did she see me staring at her? Did she remember we kissed at Mike Chang's house? Or was she too drunk to remember that incredible kiss? If she did remember did she find it to be a kiss of a life time? Or is she angry because she remembers it was me she had kissed?'
The questions started to burn through her mind as a new one flooded inside her already busy brain. Question after question about what exactly could have been running through Santana's mind at the exact moment she had passed her but in order to get them she was going to have to confront the Latina about everything. That was what she was going to have to do.
"Hey Rach." A familiar male voice interrupted her thoughts, causing her to turn her head and smile up at her tall boyfriend who was smiling down at her. "Ready to go?"
Blushing with embarressment that she had been thinking about a tall ex-cheerleader while standing by her locker and forgetting that Finn had been standing there the whole time talking about...uh, something. She didn't even remember what subject they had been discussing before she had caught sight of Santana on the other side of the hall. It made her feel so guilty and she really hoped that he wouldn't ask her thoughts about what he had been talking about. Cause if he did, she would have to confess that she hadn't been paying him any attention. Besides, she could help but think of what she was going to say to the girl she has been thinking so much about and what the possible outcome could be.
Please review and tell me what you think! This is my first Glee story! I am totally in love with the whole idea of Santana and Rachel. Not sure why but there is definately something about these two. Anyway, let me know if you guys think I should continue this story or not. I'm also open to suggestions if anyone has any imput.
