Chapter 1- Start of Something New
I was trying to sleep in, but Berry was poking at my side to get up even though we had fourty minutes till work. "Calm your tits Berry, we still have plenty of time till we have to catch the subway to go to that depressing Diner." Now, if you would've told me sophomore year that I would be living with Rachel Berry, and Porcelain I would've laughed in your face. And would've pry went all lima heights. I always thought me and Britt would be living together but things change, and people change. And I'm pretty glad they did because I would be lost without them two, when I showed up at their door step after delivering one hell of a number at Mckinley.
I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but it has been so nice to have people who know you so well already. Even though I have to listen to them debate what's the better musical Moulin Rouge, or Funny Girl which is quite annoying when you hear them arguing about it at least twice a week. There was some stipulations after I told them I went through all their things but hey I had to get that, John Travolta wanna be away from Rachel.
"Alright Rachel I'm up, and got my horrible red uniform on that they make us wear, which seriously I think Gunther has a sick fantasy making us wear these. Well let's go then Berry, chop, chop."
"Thank God", Rachel said a little to snarky for my taste, we got to the subway it was the typical nasty old men checking us out in our hideous work outfits. One of the reason's I got this job for Rachel which included having to show some cleavage. I really wanted her with me so I would have someone watching my back. "Looks like were here, we better get in before our boss yells at us." We got to our time clocks, and punched in I had the unfortunate task of having to cater to this extremely rude guy who ordered everything on the side or pop with only four ice cubes, and threw it on the floor when there was five. I was extremely pissed off, and Rachel dragged me away so I wouldn't punch that guy. I went in the back to cool down, and fill salt shakers. When I heard the most beautiful sound I have ever heard in my life, "Hi, Santana I'm Dani I just wanted to say that you shouldn't let that guy get to you he was just an asshole." I turned around but wasn't ready for what I saw which was the most stunning girl I've ever laid my eyes on. She had beautiful brown eyes like Hershey's kisses, long blonde hair with luscious curls at the end.
And for as ugly as our outfits are she was definitely rocking it and it clung to her in all the right places. And damn she had some toned muscles, "Um are you ok", she said with a slight blush. I turned back to the salt and dropped it all over the floor. "Oh crap, I'm such a klutz, and yes I'm fine just a little flustered."
"Well here let me help you, I didn't mean to make you nervous I just wanted to make sure you were alright, you looked really upset." I looked up at her, my breathe hitched for a moment at how unbelievably close we were. I could see how soft, and kissable her lips were and my face got really red thinking about how her lips would taste and how talented they probably were. I realized I was staring, and looked up to her eyes and she was smiling a "Rachel Berry" megawatt type smile. And, it awoken something inside of me that I haven't felt in a long time. It was like I had just swallowed a bunch of Butterflies, and they were flying around in my stomach.
I stood up to put the salt shakers back on the counter, she stood up as well with me, I figured I better say something about my staring so she doesn't think I'm some sort of creepy ass stalker. "I'm Uh, sorry If I was staring earlier your just really pretty so It's not really my fault it yours", as I laugh and I hear her giggle, and blush profusely. "Hey Santana, are you alright I saw you practically sprint in here to get away from that jerk."
I was so grateful for Berry's entrance because I couldn't believe I just called Dani pretty to her face. I mean usually with girls I can flirt better than the best of them and I never get nervous. I also got some swag but with this girl she made me stutter like Finn, asking sophomore year if he could hold Quinn's hand I mean it's ridiculous. "Yes, Rachel I'm fine, are you ready to go home?" Rachel had some sort of smirk on her face like she knew I was trying to get out of here to avoid further embarrassment. "Yes, Santana I'm ready for you to accompany me back to our humble abode. But before we leave who is this nice looking girl Sanny?"
I coughed in to my hand and fumbled with my hands, "This is Dani she just started yesterday while we were off yesterday, and she was just helping me clean up the salt I spilled on the floor." Rachel started to giggle, "Well how nice of her."
"Well it was the least I could do I mean it was partly my fault I kind of startled her, and made her drop it." Her voice sounded so angelic I wanted to hear it some more, "Is that so", Rachel said with much enthusiasm. "Alright Berry let's go that's enough chit chat", I walked passed Dani and grabbed Rachel's hand and walked out of the door, I realized that was pry extremely rude leaving her in the room. I told Rachel to stay by the counter I peeked inside the door, and she was making some hamburger patties. "Hey, I just wanted to say it was really nice to meet you, I hope to see you tomorrow night." With that said I closed the door grabbed Rachel's hand and we headed home.
We decided not to take the subway, and instead just walk home it's only an extra mile, and it was a gorgeous day out. "You like her don't you, and before you lie just remember I have known you since freshmen year, and I can tell when you lie. "Okay Fine, yes I like her she so gorgeous and her eyes are so stunning, and it's so annoying that my face blush's when I just met her. I mean come on Rachel, I'm never nervous around girl's I've always been a smooth talker with the ladies." Rachel started to laugh, "Oh my gosh this is so cute your actually shy around her, I've never seen you shy before it's adorable." Rachel seemed just as excited about this new girl as me, she really did need to find someone but after what happened she possibly never will. "Yeah well so what Rachel, even if my palms sweat like some horny boy around her I still have no chance, all the girls that Hot are either taken or straight. Besides even if she's not either of those things she wouldn't be interested in me, I mean I was a total klutz around her it was humiliating.
Rachel rolled her eyes, "I saw how she was looking at you when I came in, and she was blushing so hard she is totally into you Sanny." I was not going to get my hopes up listening to Rachel. "I still doubt it Rach, but can we just drop this for now, it's just making me kind of sad, we can talk about it later I want to get my Vampire Diaries on with my Bestie." I saw Rachel's face softened, "I'm just going to say there's no reason to be sad, I know that girl likes you or at least thinks your cute, but yes I will drop it for now." Now let's see if we can tell if it's awkward for Ian and Nina to do sappy cute scenes together now. I'm still sad Klaus and Rebekah isn't on here anymore. She was so hot, and I always thought they could of paired Caroline with either of them she seemed to have chemistry with both.
"Berry, you totally read my mind I always thought I sensed a Sapphic connection between them two, alright let's start it." I was trying to watch my show but a certain dirty blonde kept invading my thoughts Was Rachel right, did she really see something that I didn't? I turn my head back to our show, and try to hear what Stefan is whining about now, but Rachel has had her face in her phone for the past ten minutes. "Let me guess it's Kurt needing help on what to wear on his date with Blaine tonight, you'd think after them being together for three years. He wouldn't be so obsessed with what to wear, but in a way it cute."
Rachel rolled her eyes, and shifted towards me sitting Indian style and let out a loud squeal. "No, it wasn't Kurt it was someone else but I won't tell you who, you'll figure it out soon enough." Rachel then winked at me which made me wonder what in the world she was talking about, usually I can read Berry like a book partly because I've known her forever it seems. And she promised to never again doubt my Mexican third eye. I was pulled out of my thoughts when I felt my phone vibrate, it was a number I didn't recognized, then I looked down at the message, and I felt like my heart jumped out of my chest. And, all the color drained from my face when I saw who it was that texted me it was Dani. How the hell did she get my number then it hit me, of course Rachel.
Yelling at Berry was going to have to wait, for now I wanted to see what Dani had to say. "I got your number from Rachel I hope that's ok, just wanted to say I was happy to meet you today. And to tell you not to be embarrassed about the salt incident I thought it was quite endearing ;) See You Tomorrow. I was sure my mouth was about to crack from smiling so large, then I heard a loud squeal, and Rachel jumping off the couch and jumping up, and down like a crazy person. "I knew it, I knew she liked you, I told you Santana", I wanted to act cool and roll my eyes but what the hell, I was way too excited. So I joined Rachel and started doing something completely unlike me. I started to let loose and join my best friend jumping up and down like crazy hyper five year olds.
