AN: So here's a new story, I'll still be writing my other one though :P I just had an idea for this story and decided to write it so tell me what you think or if you want me to carry it on :)


"Come on Mija, please you know we have to go tonight. It's not the end of the world missing one party. God knows you go to so many." Santana's dad pleaded pulling his coat on and straightening his collar as Santana came stomping down the stairs before setting on the bottom step squaring up to her farther although she was still a good 2 inches shorter than the tall tanned man.

"Great. Just fucking brilliant dad."

"Language Mija" he cut in sternly. As Maria grabbed a set of house keys from the key rack in the hall before holding her grip on the door handle watching the typical teenage daughter mood swing take place.

"What. It's true! I have to stay in dealing with stupid fucking kids in their tacky costumes then reward them for it or be 'tricked' nuh uh. Trick me, and I'll cut a bitch. Oh and don't even get me started on the candy if they think they're getting it they have anot..." Santana rambled on further poking her dad in the chest for emphasis to her obvious anger.

"Santana Maria Lopez" her mother said sternly moving away from the door and opening her purse obviously fed up with her husband's efforts to reason with the fiery brunette. "You are not going out. And that's final!" she cut in putting her hand up to silence any imminent feeble protests. "Jake is all ready upstairs all you have to do is take him around a few places." Santana huffed taking the 10 dollars her mom was handing her. "Be safe and remember to lock up when you go out for goodness sake, call me or your farther if you need anything." She said hugging Santana and heading back to the door this time opening it as James hugged his daughter uttering a thank you despite her groans.

"Hey mom"

"What now Santana" Maria said clearly irritated at the holdup due to her daughters stubbornness.

"So I call you if I need anything?"

"Yes Mija that's what I said, now take care of your brother and use the money to get you and your brother some food. We really have to get going now Santana. Have fun you two"

"Well what if I need to you know, let's say GO OUT what then ?" the brunette hastily shouted as she smirked sitting down on the last step head propped up in her hands as her mother shouted a last bye and shut the door. It was Halloween and Santana's parent's had a work party to attend so wouldn't be back until gone midnight which left babysitting Jake down to the now pissed off Santana, missing party's was certainly something that was new to her.

"Jake!" Santana called up the stairs hearing what she presumed to be a controller drop to the floor and hurried footsteps approaching the stairs. "Make sure you've turned all your stuff off upstairs."

"I have Tannna, can we go now?!" The little dark haired boy enthusiastically asked with a beaming smile on his face.

"Sure can." She smiled as he hopped down the stairs. "What even are you?" the brunette laughed as she pulled her converse on grabbing her phone from the side and shooting Mercedes I message saying she couldn't make it too puckerman's party tonight.

"Can't you tell Tana? I'm a vampire!" Jake said narrowing his eyebrows and pulling his cape round one half of his face before jumping out from behind it, with his arms raised making a silly hissing sound.

"Oh my god" Santana laughed further. "Aren't you just precious" she giggled again rolling her eyes as Jake picked up his trick or treating bag clearly not impressed with his sister's reaction to his costume.

"I'm meant to be scary San." He pouted as she opened the door making sure she had the right keys with her.

"Mhmm, totally mom did a great job. Look on the bright side kid you're scarier than Edward Cullen." The brunette laughed closing the door and locking it behind them as she took her little brothers hand in her own as they set off through the neighbourhood where many kids where already prowling for candy.

Jake hummed in approval swinging his now empty bag in his hand as they walked to the first house this being the first victim of the Lopez duo. "Go on, go knock on the door. I'll wait here." Santana said pulling out her phone and leaning against the gate to the house as Jake ran up the path. She glanced down at her phone smiling at the picture of her and her family that was currently set as her wallpaper. Yes there was no denying it Santana Lopez could be one hell of a bitch and was certainly not scarce of male and female attention at the hell hole she called high school. It may be a hell hole but she ruled the place it was HER soul destroying life shaping school and she could do just about anything without question. But even she knew that was only due to her looks... without those she was pretty sure she'd just be another run of the mill typical nerdy teenager spending her days trying to avoid a red cherry facial. Well and maybe her head cheerio status. Despite her top grades and often nerdy mind setting regarding her education oh and not to mention the well known fact she was a lesbian it still didn't dent her popularity and reputation which again probably linked back to the looks even girls would turn for Santana Lopez, She was still top. Well and her best friend Quinn. She unlocked her phone with a swipe and sent that very girl a quick message.

Outgoing Santana: hey Q sorry I couldn't make it tonight babysitting duties drink up for me girl (; xx

She glanced up again, as Jake came jogging back towards her as the door closed gently behind him, with his trick or treat bag ratting at his side.

Incoming Quinn: I'm getting grinded on like a strippers pole. I need my wing girl back! Xx

Santana read the message quickly as she took Jake's hand in her own heading off for the next house that looked the least bit in the Halloween mood. "Saaan loook was I got!" he grinned opening the bag as she glanced down but her mind was a little preoccupied with the sudden rage bubbling up through her chest eventually leading her to kick the first thing in sight which happened to be a rather hard tree. Not the best idea to be perfectly honest she thought as the slight throb in her foot caused her to wince.

"Stupid ducking animals..."

"Saan"

"Mother f-ducking pole?! She's not candy!" Santana mumbled ignoring Jake's comments.

"What's up Tana?" Jake asked as they stopped at the next house eventually successfully grabbing the angered taller brunette's attention.

"Nothing you have to worry about my little vampire. Go get us more candy" the brunette forced a laugh as he nodded with determination and ran up the path to the next house. Santana felt comfortable letting him go up to the doors alone seeing as thought she knew all the neighbours and Mr and Mrs Greenwell where certainly no Michael Jackson threat. Kidding. Feeling the rage subside a little she typed a response to her best blonde trying to keep her thoughts off of the images of Quinn being molested by those pigs, nothing that she can't handle she thought or more to the point reassured herself.

Outgoing Santana: Eugh Jerks. Give me names and I'll castrate them. But I'll have to text you later big sister duties are calling! Give me a text when you get home xx

Incoming Quinn: you wouldn't go near a dick let along get close enough to cut one off baby. Mhm yes mom ;) Say hi to Jake for me xx

She let out a laugh suddenly feeling a lot better possibly due to the term of endearment used by her beautiful best friend. Jake came bounding back down the path smiling as he approached closer she tucked her phone back in her pocket stretching out her hand.

"I scared em good San!" he beamed, the protective feeling mixed with pride and love all surfacing with Santana's every actions towards her younger brother reminded her of how much she would rather be making his night special rather than be at that party.

"I knew you would." She smiled back "come on, let's go rape this neighbourhood of candy."

"What's r..?"

"I said cape?" Santana said slowly nodding. "Let's cape this neighbourhood of candy." She said again hoping it worked.

"Okay!" he beamed back innocently as they set off to do exactly that.

An hour later which made it 7 and they where crashed out on the sofa watching Spiderman waiting for the pizza to arrive. "I'll run your bath after the pizza ok J?" Santana asked absentmindedly playing with the fabric of the comforter on the couch that she was sprawled out on not paying any mind to the movie that was playing.

"Ok..." he drawled out carefully thinking of something to say, Santana knew a question or demand was going to follow as he always turns his head to the side pouting his lip out slightly. It's a typical Lopez trait. Watching him with an amused expression she sat up crossing her legs and placing her phone on her leg. "And if I'm reeeeeeallllly good and get my bath canihavesomecandybeforebed" He rushed out still pouting.

"Whoa slow down I know this is Halloween J, but I don't need scaring that bad... I almost thought Rachel Berry had possessed you for a second." Santana laughed as he looked confused.

"Can I please have some candy before bed if I'm good?" he smiled as the brunette felt her phone vibrate on her lap.

"Only if you don't tell mom and dad" she chuckled full well knowing the desire for candy on Halloween for a 6 year old. He fist pumped excitedly and shrieked a thank you before settling back down and resumed his attention to the movie as Santana checked her messages.

Incoming Puck: Sexpez here's the deal, this party's dead and I've always known you wanted a bit of the puckasaurus rex so I'm on my way over in 5? Deal?

The brunette sat there mouth open wide trying to come to terms with what she just read. Suddenly feeling the anger she had repressed earlier come to full force as she furiously tapped away on her phone.

Outgoing Santana: Listen here, come near my house and I'll chop your dick off. You're never getting this, you never had a chance and you will NEVER Have a chance. I LIKE VAGINA. I know you may be slightly confused as to what the fuck you even have down there and to be honest there may be a high chance you have one but either way I still wouldn't fuck you. I'd sooner join a convent. And delete my fucking number before I end you.

Incoming Puck: Too much to read so 5 minutes? You can end me then (;

Santana clenched her hands as she bit the inside of her mouth letting out a deep breath remembering Jake was here and she didn't feel the need to explain why her phone suddenly flew across the room so instead she settled for stuffing it down the side of the couch, lightly letting her hand brush Jakes hair and made her way into her room to get changed seeing as though she wasn't going anywhere tonight. Plus it would give her a chance to take her mind off the pig of a male species named one 'Noah Puckerman.' She pulled off her jeans and shirt replacing them with a pair of shorts and her WMHS hoodie. She picked up a stray hair band from her floor and pulled her hair up into a messy bun just as the door bell rang.

Call it an irrational thought but she certainly didn't want Jake answering the door on his own... there are some weird freaks around. She ran from her room to the stairs stubbing her toe on the way.

"FUCCCCKKKING PIECE OF SHIT!" she wailed hoping down the stairs. "I've got it Jake." She winced as he excitedly jumped in front of the door. The taller of the brunettes opened the door to see the sight of 2 kids dressed up as zombies still feeling like she'd just been shot the chorus of 'Trick or treat' In their whiny voices didn't help.

"Hey Jake you know the drill." She smiled offering the bucket of sweets to Jake so he could hand them to the kids that must have been similar to his age give or take a year.

"Thanks" they chimed as Jake grinned up at his big sister as she shut the door muttering sweet nothings about her toe and Jake resumed his space on the couch. Deciding she had nothing better to do Santana quickly followed suit sitting next to him and ignoring the muffled sounds of her phone.

The door bell rang again breaking Santana out of her thoughts and causing her to attend to the numerous disruption of the night.

"Pizza for Miss Lopez?"

"Yupp, hang on a second I just need to grab my purse." She quickly walked over to where her purse was now resting on the counter table in the kitchen, taking out 20 dollars and returning quickly to pay the nerdy looking man.

"Thanks" Santana smiled as she took the pizza and her change, struggling to shut the door with her foot.

"PIZZZAAA!" Jake shouted enthusiastically, jumping of the sofa still in his vampire costume although the cape had been removed. All that rustling was ultra annoying. Santana made her way into the fairly large kitchen placing the box on the island in the middle and opening it up too slide 3 piece's onto a plate for Jake.

"Here you can eat it while watching spider man." She smiled making him up a drink and following him back into the lounge. "Don't get it everywhere, mom will kill me J" Santana smiled again placing his drink on the side for him to take at his leisure.

"Thank you Tana." He mumbled incoherently with a mouth stuffed full of pizza with his dark eyes trained to the screen in front of him. Santana shook her head lightly chuckling to herself as she made her way back into the kitchen to get stuck into some of this pizza. Well that was until the door bell rang again.

Possibly due to the fact she was running on an empty stomach and the smell of pizza was intoxicating or the fact her left foot was in considerable amounts of pain from the battering it took tonight from the tree to the door frame toe stubbing Santana was on a next level shit of frustration. And it showed as she swung open the door expecting to see the brain dead appearance of the Mohawk she had grow accustomed to ignoring at school.

"For Fu..." The sight of a little kid clutching on to a pale hand nervously was not what she was expecting. "Fudge? I have fudge!" she quickly recovered panic setting in as she realised someone was giggling at her. Glancing up at the taller of the two girls on her door step and more so the owner of that giggle was one of the most gorgeous women she'd ever laid eyes on. "Sorry" the Latina mouthed earning a smile from the blonde.

"Come on Lex." She nudged what Santana presumed to be her little sister considering the striking blonde hair and blue eyes where oh so similar.

The nudge must have been enough as it caused an almost inaudible 'trick or treat' came from the little girl.

"Definite treat. You're far too scary for a trick" the Brunette entertained the childish festivities for at least once this evening. Grabbing the bucket of sweets from the side by the door and bent down to her level. "Take as much as you want just don't scare me" she smiled gesturing the bucket to the smaller girl under the watching eye of the taller blonde.

"Go on Lex" The more confidant blonde reassured her sister untangling her hand from the smaller girls as she tentatively stuck her now free hand into the bucket withdrawing a lollipop and letting it fall into her fairly bare trick or treat bag whispering a thanks to the brunette and hiding behind her sisters legs as the Latina drew herself up from her crouched position and leant against the doorframe not wanting the door to occupy its rightful place.

"Thank you..."

"Santana" she quickly said feeling a very rare blush creep up her cheeks to the amused expression of the blonde. Recovering Santana quickly said "You must be new round here? I haven't seen you before"

"Brittany." The tall blonde smiled. "And you're right, just moved 2 days ago. I live 4 doors down. I'm guessing you go to McKinley high?" she gestured to the hoodie that had the 'WMHS' letters imbroided on the breast of the jumper. The simple recognition of the high school she was so familiar with almost sparked a small hope that the blonde was her age and going to be attending her school.

"Mhmm youngest head cheerleader" she added with a smirk, yet almost internally kicking herself, why the fuck would this beautiful blonde want to know that. God dam that force of habit, that reassurance of popularity to people who might not know her or judge her.

The smile on the Blondes face faltered slightly as she bit her lip and furrowed her eyebrows. "Right" It was obvious she had already made her first judgement and Santana's gut feeling suggested it wasn't a good one.

"Umm here" she gestured sticking out the bucket of candy her parents had bought for tonight. "We won't get any more tonight and we have to get rid of it all" she quickly said with a fake cough as the blonde's features relaxed slightly under Santana's hesitant gaze.

"That's really kind of you." She replied taking the small bucket with a dazzling smile and tipped its contents into her sister's bag before handing it back to the Latina as they're hands grazing slightly earning a smirk from the blonde as Santana almost dropped the bucket. "I guess I might see you around at school then Santana. Thanks again" Brittany turned taking her sisters hand in her own and making their way down the Lopez' path.

"It's no problem!" Santana called still recovering from the simple beauty that had radiated from the girl on her doorstep. Said girl turned back towards the Latina gracing her with one last smile before she carried on her way back to her house as Santana was left with her thoughts and conclusion that perfect had finally been defined and it came in the shape of a tall blue eyed blonde. Shutting the door behind her she made her way into the kitchen and took a few bites of the pizza still deep in thought. An attraction is nothing, and she wasn't going to deny the fact she was definitely attracted to Brittany. But what threw a spanner in the works was the fact she had been chasing a different blonde for quite a while. Shaking her mind of the thoughts of the tall blonde she finished off eating in the kitchen before quickly tiding up and heading upstairs to run Jakes bath.


"Come on J. You know the deal!" she said with a hint of frustration as he hid under his bed.

"I don't wanaa!"

"Oh well I guess I'll just eat all the candy myself..." she smirked knowing the effect it would have 3...2...1...

"Fineee" He whined crawling out from under the bed and following Santana into the bathroom where the bath was now already run.

"Give me a shout when you're all done and make sure you get all that face paint off" She smiled staying at the door of the bathroom to make sure he didn't slip and fall.

"Okaaay" he hummed lightly already playing with the toys she had placed in the bath.

By 9pm Jake was bathed and changed and fast asleep in his room while Santana laid down in her own bed after locking up the house and turning everything off downstairs. As she laid there contemplating the encounter with the new girl on the block. What was weird about this evening in particular though wasn't the fact she had been totally mesmerized by a girl she didn't know, but more the fact that for the first time in a long time it was a new Blonde that was occupying her thoughts as she lay in bed. And that blonde wasn't Quinn Fabray. To say the least she was more confused than a whore waking up in church.
