This is a story of how sometimes two lovers need to spend some time apart for them to grow individually so that they could be together eventually.
I know some of you have already watched this movie but I'm sure most of you haven't. This is my favorite movie of all time so I figured why not use it..hehe
Most of the scenes are from the movie but I'm planning to change some on the later part to make it more exciting..:)
Tell me if you like the story so I'll know if I'll continue it or not.. All of them are out of characters most of the time.. This is entirely different from Canon.. But I'll try my best to give justice to every character..^_^
Disclaimer: I don't own any character from glee or the show itself.. But sometimes I wish I do..LOL

SANTANA's POV
…10:30 PM…
I look outside the hotel room's window, my eyes fixed right into the city lights with my eighth can of beer on my right hand. I know she's looking at me and maybe wondering what the hell I am thinking right now. I feel a bit tipsy after we drank almost two packs of beer, talking about the thing that both of us never understood and maybe will never understand, love.
I let out a deep sigh, "Your fiancé is so lucky to have you. You're one of a kind." I said as I turn around to face her. She chuckled a little, obviously not believing any word I said.
"You're just drunk." She said still laughing. She's sitting on the floor, with her back against the foot of the bed and her left arm resting on it while she runs her fingers in her hair.
I smiled back at her as I walk towards the bed and then sit in front of her leaving just few feet between us. "You know me, I always keep it real." I said trying to convince her.
"You are so 'drunk'." She said groggily, specifying the last word and then takes a sip on her own beer.
I move closer to her, "No, I'm not. You're really kind, intelligent and most of all, you're beautiful. You can have anyone you like." I've known her for more than seven years that's why I meant what I said.
She looks away but I know she's just trying her best not to laugh at me. Instead she stares at her beer, "Stop it. You're just being nice to me."
I place my can on the floor and then slowly crawl towards her, "Thank you for listening." I said as I move my body closer to her. She turns her head and waits for me to close the distance between our faces. I can smell her breath and see how calm her face is, even if I'm invading her personal space right now.
She didn't move back or even blinked, I suddenly close my eyes not being able to think clearly because of the large amount of alcohol that I consumed. Maybe she's right; I am so drunk right now.
When I feel her warm breath on my lips, my mind screams in protest. Her smell is so different from the girl I love. Quinn's breath is warm and sweeter. Fuck! She's not Quinn!
I can hear her laugh as I open my eyes. Shame is what I feel right now. I almost kissed my childhood best friend, Marley! What the fuck are you thinking Lopez?!
"Sorry." I smiled at her as apologize while I move back from her and then groggily sits on the floor letting both of my hands supporting my weight. She just laughs at me even harder with that I-know-you-won't-do-it look on her face. "I'm drunk. This is so embarrassing." I told her, trying to explain my stupid actions.
"That was hilarious." She teases, still laughing at me.
I smiled at her apologetically, "I'm sorry. You know how much I love Q."
"I know." She said simply with that sweet smile on her lips. "That's why I knew you wouldn't do it." She said in as a matter of fact manner.
QUINN's POV
…10:30 PM…
"You're so beautiful and one of a kind Quinn." I smiled at her as I sit on the couch and remove my white cardigan which is on top of my baby blue knee length sundress. I suddenly feel hot after my second glass of champagne and my 'nth time trip to the bathroom for the last thirty minutes.
"Really? It's good to know someone still sees me like that, because I'm pretty sure my girlfriend doesn't anymore." She laughs but I am not sure if it's because of what I said or if she thinks that my relationship is a big joke.
"It's true, you're really gorgeous." She said again, this time she's slowly walking towards me.
"Maybe you're just saying that because we're already drunk." I said as I watch her sit beside me on the couch. Oblivious on what she is planning to do.
She shook her head while smiling, "She's so lucky to have you Quinn. You're so smart and pretty." She said in a very seductive tone.
"You're just being nice." I look at her with teary eyed, appreciating all the words she said to me because I really need it right now. I was so stressed out with work and I needed someone to talk to about it, someone who would really listen. Having someone to say good things about me really helps a lot right now. "Thank you." I said grateful for the attention she's giving me tonight.
She didn't say anything back to me; she just moved closer and then put her hand on the back of my neck. My drunken mind didn't realized what she's planning to do. It was just after she kisses my neck that my brain comprehends what's happening.
I moved a little farther from her but her head follows, trying to kiss me on the lips. I raised my left hand and gently push her away so I could get up. "What do you think you're doing, Cassy?" I angrily asked her.
I could see that she's shock and confuse at the same time on the way I reacted with her move. My hand still on the back of my neck where her lips touched seconds ago. I tried to wipe it with my hands while feeling guilty for even allowing her to get close to me. Santana will kill her if she found out about this.
"I thought you wanted me to kiss you." Cassy said innocently while I grab my purse and my shoes on the floor. I need to get out of her hotel room as soon as possible before things gets worst.
After making sure that I have all of my things, I start to head towards the door without even tidying myself or even putting my hills on. "You know I have a girlfriend."
I am open about my sexuality at work although I just brought Santana to only one of our business related gatherings; all of my coworkers know how much I love her. Cassy was just a consultant that our company borrowed for three months and tomorrow she's going back to Michigan where our sister company is.
"You said you're no longer happy with her." She said while she tries to catch up with me.
I got annoyed with her when she blocked my way, "I just said that she wanted to control my life!" I snapped at her.
"Isn't it why we're here in this hotel? I can make you happy." She said seductively and tried to touch my hair again but I quickly dodge it.
Suddenly I feel nauseated, this is so stupid. "What?! I don't want to have sex with you! I just told you that I need to use the bathroom because I'm having a diarrhea! And then you said you have a room here in this hotel that I could use rest for a while before I go home. That's all!" I'm now shouting at her and then walk pass her.
"I don't want to have sex with you, never!" I quickly opened the door and went out of the room. I look for my phone in my purse to call my friend Kurt to pick me up. I walk fast towards the elevator on the far end of the hallway when my eyes immediately saw two people sweetly walking towards the elevator.
"Santana!" I angrily said to make my presence known to the two. I could see how Marley quickly removes her arm that was linked to Santana's. I inspect her clothes and saw the first three was unbuttoned which is being covered by her favorite jacket. The first picture that pops into my mind is them having intimate moments together. "How dare you!" I look at them with an accusing eye.
SANTANA's POV
Marley jokingly pushes me out of the hotel room and into the hallway. After laughing about our almost kiss, she said that I should patch things up with Quinn instead of hiding here with her.
"Please don't tell Q about this." I said to her calmly. I know I didn't have to remind her because Marley and I are best friends since third grade but I still feel that I should say it, just in case she decided to be mean to me or black mail me in the future so I will sing at her wedding.
"Of course, you know San I think Quinn is really good for you." She said as she anchor her right arm into my left arm and gently taps it with her other free hand.
I was about to say something to her when I feel Marley's body froze and then soon followed by a loud voice shouting my name. Fuck! I know that voice. What the hell is Quinn's doing here? Did she follow us here?
My face became pale instantly. Quinn is not a jealous type but I know she's intimidated by Marley especially when she found out that Marley was my first love. Even if I told her that we were just best friend now and that she's 100% straight, she still sees her as a competition. She only stopped being insecure with her when Marley moved to California three years ago. She's just here for her quarterly visit and also to let us meet her fiancé who will also be here next week.
"How dare you!" Quinn accused us, looking at me from head to toe. I know she's inspecting how I look and damn it, I look like someone who just got laid. Marley just stayed quiet while slowly hiding herself on my back, scared that angry Quinn might hit her or something.
I panicked, I know she will never believe me but I have to try. "Q, let me explain." I said trying to button my blouse. I didn't bother to fix myself since the parking lot is inside the building and the fact that it was already past ten.
I gave Marley an apologetic look then try to approach Quinn when I saw a familiar face running towards us. "Quinn, you forgot your jacket!" Cassy shouted and then handed Quinn the damn thing.
I can't fucking believe this! Here I am feeling so guilty while she just spent the night with her coworker who I found out that has a huge crush on her! Instantly, my mind was full of unpleasant things that they might have done together inside that room. I quickly scan Quinn's dress and see how crumpled it looks. Her hair is a bit messy too and she's also holding her shoes. She looks like someone who's doing the walk of shame!
"Nothing happened." Cassy tried to explain but it was already too late. Snix was already out. Before I knew it, I swing my hand with all my might as it reaches Cassy's cheeks. I heard Quinn squeal and Marley's gasp after the loud sound of slap I gave Cassy. And then without looking back I walk out of there, ignoring Marley and Quinn while they were calling my name.
QUINN's POV
Santana was out of our sight like a lightning. Marley told me everything and explained to me that nothing happened between them. I heart tells me to believe her and trust San but my mind tells me otherwise. Instead of arguing with Marley
I'm crying so hard because I am so annoyed with myself right now. I shouldn't have gone with Cassy at her hotel room. It was so stupid of me. If only I could hold it a bit longer a while ago then I wouldn't have to use her bathroom.
I dial Mercede's number while I am inside the taxi, crying my eyes out. After a few rings she finally answers.
"Cedes." I managed to say while sobbing.
"Hey, I received your text. I'm sorry I was at work a while ago. Are you okay, girl?" She asked me. Worry is visible in her voice. "I already texted them, we'll see you at Kurt's okay?"
I nod even if she won't see me, I can't even speak anymore. My throat hurts as well as my eyes. I turn off my phone not wanting to receive any call from Santana.
...ANDERSON'S RESIDENCE...
NARRATOR's POV
"It's code red. Q and San's fight just got worst." Sam said to Puck who is sitting on the couch while playing video games. They quickly went at the Anderson's residence after receiving a text from Mercedes that Quinn and San had a misunderstanding earlier tonight.
Puck didn't even blink, "What's new? In five years that they've been together, this kind of shit always happens to them. Maybe this time they'll finally call it quits." He said dismissively.
Sam gently nudges him to shut him up. It is true that Santana and Quinn always fights not because they don't love each other, it's maybe because they love each other too much. They've been together since senior year in high school until they finished college. Santana even took engineering to partner Quinn's architecture course, with the thought of them working together.
"Santana will be here any second now. Watch your mouth Puck if you don't want her to beat you up again." Blaine warned him while tapping his stick to reach the couch; he just got off the phone with Mercedes telling her what happened with the couple.
Blaine is also their high school best friend who is now married to Kurt, who is Quinn's best friend since high school. When the two of them got married a year after they graduated high school, Santana's group of friends and Quinn's group of friend merged in. Since then on, they've become very close and for the past six years, they always have each other's back especially when Blaine had an accident last year leaving him permanently blind.
"Hi baby." Kurt walks into the living room and then kisses his husband who's still standing right beside the couch. "Hey boy's." He then greeted Sam and Puck who are so busy playing ps2, they just wave at him without even looking. Kurt shook his head smiling at the two. Some things never really change.
"Baby, can you please dial San's number? I want to talk to her." Blaine said while handing the phone to Kurt who is in another direction. Kurt smiles as he quickly went in front of him to get the phone and then dial San's number. Once it rings, he reaches for Blaine's hand and put the phone on it. "Thank you, baby."
Kurt kissed him on the cheeks then went downstairs at the kitchen to help Mercedes in calming crying Quinn. They know it's not a good idea to have the two in the same house right now but they have no choice Quinn was already here when San said she will come over, they just have to try hard to make them not see each other.
"Hello, San? Where are you?" Blaine asked the person on the other line.
"I'm here." Santana answered back.
Blaine got confused, "Where?" he asked again and then soon he felt two hands gently tapping his face to get his attention.
"Here in front of you." Santana said as she gently tap Blaine's face to let him know that she's now in front of him. She motioned for Puck and Sam to move aside and give her space so she could sit on the couch beside them. Blaine slowly taps the couch across them and then sits on it.
She reaches one bottle of beer on top of the center table and drinks it. "What happened?" Blaine starts to ask. She took another drink then sighs before she starts talking.
Meanwhile in the kitchen, Mercedes and Kurt are trying to calm Quinn so San won't hear her even if the living room is upstairs. Quinn can be loud sometimes when she cries.
"How dare her get mad when it was all her fault in the first place!" Quinn managed to say while sobbing and blowing her nose with a tissue.
Kurt hands her another roll of tissue while sitting on the stool across Quinn. "You know San won't cheat on you." He said in a calm and assuring voice.
"What if something did happen?" Mercedes who is preparing us coffee said and was then given a warning glare by Kurt.
"During the five years that we're together, every time Marley's here I let them spend all of their time together but did you hear me complain about it?" Quinn asked them while wiping her tears.
Kurt and Mercedes shook their head and answers at the same time. "No."
"See?" Kurt hands her another tissue. "I was just asking for her to spend some time with me because I was so stressed out with my boss and I needed someone to talk to about it but instead she chose to have dinner with her best friend." Quinn complains to her friends while sobbing. "Or should I say her girl friend." She added that made her cry even more. Just thinking about San having an affair with someone else makes her heart shatter a million times.
"We all know Santana will never even think of cheating on you." Kurt said as he runs his hand on her back to soothe her.
"I know." Quinn answers softly.
"So stop being jealous with Marley and try to explain to San why you were there in the hotel in the first place." Kurt said as if it was the most obvious thing to do while throwing the soiled tissues at the bin in his hand.
Quinn stands up to get a new roll of tissue on the counter. "I know she won't listen." She said while wiping her nose, finally she already stops crying.
"That's right." Mercedes agrees and was given another shut up look by Kurt.
"Every time we fight, I'm always the one at fault." Quinn added while putting her hand on her stomach because it is starting to hurt again.
Kurt looks at her appreciatively, while Mercedes looks so annoyed with the situation. "That's because you let her always be right." She said irritated.
"Because I love her." Quinn said but her stomach ache is getting worst. Her stomach feels like it is boiling, she bends a little and put pressure on it using her hand hoping it will help.
Kurt then places a hand on her back because he could see Quinn's discomfort face but still manages to say his thoughts about the situation. "If you really love her, then just say sorry." He said while running his hand on her back. "Besides it's just few months before your wedding." He said smiling at them, trying to lighten up the mood.
"Oww." Quinn said while holding her stomach, she really can't hold it any longer. She needs to go to the bathroom, quickly!
"How can she marry someone so possessive?" Mercedes said who is now helping her to stand straight and guiding her to the bathroom's direction.
"She's just protective." Kurt said in Santana's defense.
The two are so caught up on their debate and also worrying about Quinn who moans because of too much stomach pain that they didn't realize Mercede's phone is ringing.
"Hardheaded." Mercedes shoots again.
"Persistent." Kurt answers back.
"She never listens." Mercedes knows that she wins because they all agreed that Santana never listens to anyone, even to Quinn. She smirks at Kurt who is now trying hard to think of something to say to defend Santana.
"That's because she loves Quinn so much." Kurt exclaimed and then reaches for Mercede's phone in her purse.
Quinn stopped walking as her body froze because of the too much urge to defecate. She feels like every step she takes, it will explode. "She's too much for me to handle!" Quinn said out loud while stopping herself to fart.
"Yes, you're right!" Mercedes again agreed and then usher Quinn towards the bathroom beside the stairs.
Kurt answers the phone only to find out that they have a huge problem, Santana is going down the stairs to get some beer in the kitchen. Kurt panics and it was too late, Quinn is already on her way to the bathroom.
...UPSTAIRS IN THE LIVING ROOM...
NARRATOR's POV
"Nothing happened between me and Marley." Santana explained to the guys. Puck quickly drops the joystick and then faces her.
He looks at her with a disbelieving expression, "Lezbro, are you the one blind or Blaine? That's Marley, so hot!" he said in an exaggerated way. I just look at him annoyed, Quinn is far more beautiful and sexy then Marley. "If only I am her best friend-" Sam cuts him off.
"You'll have sex with her?" Sam said making all of them chuckle except Santana.
"Why not? Isn't it the reason why you brought her to that hotel room?" Puck said while wiggling his eyebrows suggestively.
"Fuck you! The only reason why we're there is because that's where she's staying. We're supposed to have dinner there with Quinn if only she didn't make me choose between the two of them." Santana said irritated after being reminded of what happened. "I swear she's so childish sometimes."
Sam turns to the others and said, "Maybe nothing really happened. I mean, it's Quinn we're talking about here. She would never cheat on you San. Maybe she just needs someone to talk to."
"Inside a hotel?!" Santana and Puck exclaimed at the same time.
They all looked at him because of his reaction. "Sorry lezbro, I just got carried away." Puck explained.
"If they just really needed to talk, then why do they have to get a hotel room?!" Santana angrily said as she slams the bottle on the wooden center table.
Blaine let out a sigh, "San, do you really believe that Quinn can do that to you?" he said calmly while putting his hand on her shoulder.
It made Santana think again. "I don't know." This time she's now a bit calm.
"Then say sorry and forget it ever happen." Blaine said in a calm voice.
Santana's stubbornness kicks in, "Why would I say sorry? I didn't do anything wrong." She defends herself and then drinks again from her beer bottle after standing up.
"Lezbro is right. Quinn is the one who cheated." Puck interrupts again.
Blaine let out a deep sigh, "I know you San, Quinn is your life." He said calmly on Sam and Puck direction because Santana is now on his right side.
"He's at your right side, bro." Sam said while turning Blaine's body to where Santana is standing.
Santana starts to pace in front of them, "It's her fault so she should be the one saying sorry." She said and then walks out of the living room going downstairs. Sam panics after remembering that Quinn is downstairs with Kurt and Mercedes. So he quickly calls Mercedes to tell her that Santana is now going down the stairs.
"San! Wait!" Puck tried to stop her and be confused by his weird action. "Let me get you one, just stay here." He offers but she just ignores him and went straight down.
Puck even block Santana's way to stop her but she just pushes him aside to get pass him. "What the fuck are you doing?" Santana hissed at him for almost making her fall because of his antics.
SANTANA's POV
I'm only just two steps down the stairs when I heard a familiar voice. "She's so controlling!" Quinn said at the same time when she turns the corner, making us stand on the bottom of the stairs, face to face with each other.
"Who's controlling huh?" I know she's talking about me but I still want to hear it from her. Never in our five years together that I heard her call me that. "Me? I asked you to come with me tonight but you said no. For what? So that you could go on a date with that fucking Cassy?!"
All of our friends are surrounding the both of us, ready to take over if ever our argument gets heated. "San, nothing happened okay? We didn't do what you're thinking right now." Quinn reasoned out but I don't believe her.
I scoff, "Are you seriously telling me that the two of you just talked? That's full of shit, Fabray!"
"Calm down San, let's talk about this nicely." Blaine interrupts our heated argument. Quinn is looking at me straight in the eyes as I do the same to her.
Kurt feels that he should speak up as well in Quinn's defense, "Cassy just accompanied her to eat dinner when you chose to go with Marley. And since it was her last day at work, she treats Quinn to a sushi restaurant where she ate a lot because so was so stress at work. Then she had diarrhea maybe because of the fresh oysters and since they're eating on the restaurant where Cassy is staying…" Kurt was interrupted by Puck's reaction.
"Yeah right." Puck sarcastically reacted that made everyone look at him sharply except Quinn and me still challengingly looking at each other.
"Cassy let her use the bathroom before she humiliates herself in the hotel's restaurant." Kurt continued calmly.
I shook my head in disbelief, "Q, if you're going to lie, make sure to make it a good one." I accused her angrily.
"Will you listen to her first and try to understand her for a change." Mercedes said annoyed to my stubbornness.
"Why? Does Cassy understand you?" Everyone was silent, all eyes on Quinn waiting for her to defend herself.
I can see her eyes watering again, I know I am such a monster right now but I can't help myself to be mad at her for cheating on me. "This is too much San, I can't do this anymore." She softly said trying to hold the tears that are now threatening to fall.
"What, Q? Come on tell me!" I challenged her, just thinking that she wants to break up with me to be with that woman fuels my anger even more right now. "You wanna break up? Fine! We're done."
Everyone's eyes grew wide with what I said. I want to take it back but I can't. I have to stand by my decision.
"Is that for real?" Puck jokes but no one laughs at it, instead he just earned some deadly glares with a slight nudge from Sam. "Ow."
"I'm sure we can still fix this San." Kurt said, begging in behalf of Quinn.
I was about to say something when a loud fart filled the room which is soon followed by a disgusting smell. All of us slowly cover our nose while Quinn suddenly turned red in shame. It is again followed by another one and this time she ran pass us into the bathroom door behind me, still farting along the way.
We all look at the bathroom door while hearing loud farts from inside it and then followed by a flush from the toilet.
"Now San, do you believe her?" Blaine said in a teasing tone. Damn this blind gay man and his sixth sense when it comes to relationships.
All of us just stood there not knowing either to feel sorry for her or to laugh. I instantly felt stupid for not believing her. How could I let my jealousy cloud my judgment about her love for me? I'm so fucking stupid!
Well did you like it? Tell me..Review pls..:)
