PEACE AND LOVE
In an alternate universe where Santana Lopez and Brittany Pierce are childhood friends, When Brittany turns 5 she and her family have to leave Lima, Ohio because her father was assigned at Arizona for his work. Though they are still communicating each other they didn't see each other like literally because both were shy and both were being stupid as they grow older, especially the moment when the two realizes that they both grow feelings with each other too. They didn't even have the courage to send a recent photo of them. They met again when Brittany auditions for the new show Gleek that Quinn Fabray her best friend forces her to go to the audition and when she e-mailed Santana the girl called her immediately since she is going to audition for the show too.
[Audition/Same year]
It finally came your year, you are now standing waiting for Ryan Murphy the co-creator of the show to announce who got in and you got a role and you will go to play the role Naya Rivera who is a Hispanic bitch cheerleader. At same time you couldn't help to smile widely, but subtlety when you heard the news. Your fellow auditionee beamed each time their names were called. Everyone end up smiling in true happiness and hugging each other to know that all of you got in.
While you were in the dancing room's corner, smiling like an idiot to know what the future beholds to you, you suddenly heard a booming voice followed by someone wrapping the arms around you and yelling happily:
"Oh my God, San! We are going to be in the show! Isn't it amazing?!"
You gave her your famous grin smile showing you lovely dimples, but soon it was replaced by a shy grin as you wrapped your arms around her waist and whispers in awe:
"Yes… it's really amazing, Brit."
With eighteen years, your life already was traced; everything you worked so hard these years, it's finally here… and now you are embracing the noisy girl tightly who you've miss so much when she leave, you couldn't help to chuckle with the fact you couldn't bear with this girl at the first time you saw her after you left to Arizona. At the moment she saw you with her baby blue eyes that you love are turning into crescent moons, she yelled excitedly:
"Sanny!"
You still cringed at her loud tone since you were known to be extremely quiet and introverted. At that time, you simply gave at her your cold glare with was saying:"Who the'll are you?!", yet who would ever imagine that this same girl would pass through your cold barriers and reach your heart completely? Even being so different from you… as much you didn't wanted to admit at first… you knew that this girl would be irreplaceable in your life… your childhood best friend, Brittany…
XoXoXoXoXoXoXoX
As it was expected, the show became famous and outstanding; the cast got some appearances on talk shows and other tv shows, innumerable performances and deserved awards were on your way. It was really amazing how many fans your show gained, how many hearts you and your show conquered. As much the 18 hours of shooting and sometimes you never got sleep could be tiresome, you would take a deep breath and be happy with everything you have.
Yes, everything was right here before your eyes: success, talent, family, and friends and… Brittany. Laid on your bed and staring the ceiling, you still are thinking on her… again. Passing through the years, as you said once: "She is someone I can't live without." Started to give you some headache…
Sometimes, you would ask yourself what kind of relationship it's happening between two. Isn't she your best friend? Of course! You quickly answer in your mind. Suddenly, you heard your phone buzzing and you smiled when you saw her name on the display. You hurriedly pressed the button and read the message's content:
"From: Britt-Britt
To: San
Good night, Sannybear.
Sweet dreams.
Once again, thanks for saving me on the stage.
Love you ^^"
Even being in another floor, far from your friend's room, you could feel as she was right here in front of you and saying those sincere words. At the same time you smiled widely, you would always have that same tingling sensation whenever she tells that three words. Still, sometimes you would be a little sad since you knew that she loved all the members and that includes you, as a family. Even with this thought, you shook your head and smiled anyway while you stared the moon by your dim room's window.
Million of thoughts run wildly in your mind, every single moment you have with her. Like one in the present day… while your group was making a performance, including you on the stage, Brittany known as wild dancer and missed one step and clumsily fell on the floor. As soon your eyes caught the scene, everything stopped… you suddenly stopped your choreography to help her stand up carefully while you held her shoulders. You asked to her if everything was fine and she gave a quick nod to assure you of her conditions.
Even when you saw her limping, you frowned worriedly, but your expression quickly was replaced by a furious one when you heard some people laughing of your friend. You tensed your jaw and managed a cold glare to make them shut up. Since it worked, you turned your attention to her, who was watching you in awe; you smiled at her and whispered that everything would be fine. She believe on your words and soon, you two returned to your choreography, yet it was visible the blush in your cheeks.
You slept with a big smile in your face as you reminded you beautiful she was when she was blushing and still holding your phone close to your chest.
At the same year, but a couple months later Brittany, Quinn and you were invited to make a commercial with another artists. Since you knew major part of them, you were cool about the fact; it was just another work. Yet, you wouldn't ever imagine that this day would be the beginning of your heartache even without your consent…
During the shootings, you frowned at the step one… you would have to interact with a random guy and you aren't very the friendly kind person. Step two… the worst one… proceeding with your shootings was the smallest problem… your discomfort started when the moment you were watching Brittany's acting, the latter turn around to wave and smile at you. Your lips switched to upwards as you waved dumbly in return and blushed.
The problem started when two guys named Hugo and Neal Caffrey decided to fool around with your best friend… She keep smiling and laughing at their gestures or jokes as if she always knew them. Slowly, you started to felt your blood boiling when one of them started to show off his perfect physic to her. She blushed and smiled shyly of course, since she is a respectful girl. Yet going forward with the takes, you just haven't to deal with one, but two guys flirting with Brittany.
Your co-star/best friend Quinn realized your cold stare to the guys and asked worriedly:
"S, is everything alright?"
You bit you inner cheek and managed to smile forcefully as you answers:
"Don't worry, Q. I'm fine… I just need some sleep, that's all."
Still a little reluctant with your answer, Quinn shrugs her shoulders and walk to her scene. Finally the torture was over in the moment that Brittany came back to you and smiling. Yet, she realized your bored expression and asked in concern:
"San… are you ok? Do you need anything?"As much you wanted to gave in with the sight of those melting blue brown eyes, you keep your pride as you quickly shook your head and stomped your foot to your take. Without turn around, you feel her eyes on your back, and simply answer into your 'normal' tone:
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about it."
However, a bad thought came to your mind; since you knew she still was watching you as you walked to your scenery to start your take. In your shooting, you would have to act like a cute girlfriend with your shooting's partner and go with those fake lovey-dovey moments. Trying to make Brittany taste her own remedy, you emphasized or exaggerate your role as a sweet sexy girlfriend.
The guy whom you were interacting was totally into your gestures; yet, you didn't care, all you could do was catch a glimpse of steaming Brittany. The latter was staring at you intently, the moment you finally finished your shoot with a confident smile in your face, your eyes met with hers and your smile faded away when you saw a hurt expression in her face. Instantaneously, you felt a tug in your heart since the last thing you wanted it was her sadness… yet you were the responsible for her reaction. Still, you tried to talk with her, but the moment you approached from her, she looked at you with sad eyes and turn around to leave.
Seeing her silhouette disappearing from your sight, you nibbled your lower lip apprehensively and stumbles your head forward cursing yourself to be such a jerk and stupid. You will have to plan something very big to get her forgiveness, so not wasting time… you trace a makeup plan in your mind.
In your so called plan, you asked… no, you practically begged to your manager to give you a chance to sing with Brittany. Even before your new upcoming episode where you two are going to have a duet, she always talked that she wanted to sing with you someday. Suddenly, one day you received a call from your manager and when you heard the news, you literally jumped happily in your spot and not wasting time, you rapidly dialed her number to tell the news, but decided to meet her for the best.
At first, as soon she saw you, she would keep her annoyed semblance, but deep inside she was more sad than annoyed. You treated at her coldly as nothing had happened, then you delivery your song in her hands and waits for her reaction. She stared at you confusedly, but you motion her to read the content; after sigh deeply, you bit your thumb's tip in anxiety while she was reading the paper. Out of sudden, she shot her head up and stared at you in shock with her mouth hanged open. Her voice faltered as she asked with her loud voice:
"I-Is that true?!"
You simply nodded with a small smile while you saw her eyes shining. At this moment, you sigh heavily and reach her hand. She looked at you expectantly, although her cheeks were flushed and her head was lowered. You took a deep breath and starts:
"Britt, I know you wanted this since we talk about this a few years ago… I'm sorry to act like a jerk with you earlier. You are my best friend and I'll do anything to see you happy. We are like strawberries and bananas, remember?"
She chuckles at your corny remark, but she finally gave in as she leaned and wrap her arms around your neck for a tight hug. While her head was rested in your shoulder, you heard her whispering softy: "Yeah… just like cookies and cream…"
Another month passed and it was the day of your duet shoot. Your stomach keep rumbling in nervousness as you couldn't take your eyes away from her. She looked so calm while you were deadly worried. Yet, your train of thoughts was interrupted when you two were called by Nikki to sing in the booth. She turned her head at you and nodded with a comforting smile. You smiled weakly in response as you stood up to the booth after her. You held the lyrics tightly to keep your mind busy while you sang, but it was an extremely hard task when you heard her warm, yet lovely voice filling your heart:
"You mean the world to me
I know I found in you my endless love…"
That time, you just could see her; you simply couldn't stop staring her while she was singing beautifully. Suddenly, your heart pounded hard as you felt shivers running by your spine every time yours stare meets. Even being super nervous, you managed to express your feelings wonderfully in a way that you never felt before. Once you two were over, you were like on the cloud nine and your heart keep beating fast as Nikki said something about the first take of your record.
"You two are just perfect for each other." Nikki said with a bright wide smile plastered on her face.
And you blush at the comment though you knew that you are just playing the character Naya Rivera who fell in love with her best friend Heather Morris.
Your director created new looks and different styles to the cast and that includes you too. You stare yourself in the mirror, still trying to familiarize yourself with your new matured look. Even being a little strange, you felt your heart lap when a sudden and husky voice appears behind you and says excitedly:
"You really look amazing in that new hair style, SAN!"
You turn around and slightly widened your eyes to see her new look. Your mouth simply dropped when you saw her new hair style, it looks cute the golden hair flowing by her shoulders. You couldn't hold yourself as the words slipped from your mouth:
"You look beautiful, Britt."
She chuckles and lowered her head coyly thanks your creepy… or puzzled stare to hide her flushed face.
Reaching yours twenty one years, you can't help to feel grumpy… again. Every time you saw her hugging or fooling around with another co-star, you feel a tug in your heart. You know they are family, that's why you don't mind when sometimes you just want her attention, but end up being ignored.
Your show won many awards deservedly. While someone was busy making a good speech, your eyes caught something… when you turn to your right, you saw her tearing… but it was a heartbreaking since you realized that how everyone was overwhelmed or busy as well, your best friend was there lonely.
Your heart acted faster than your mind when a question pops in your head… Who would be better than you to comfort her in this time? Not wasting time and not wanting someone else do your job; you walked to her and gently tugged her hand and tangle your pinky with hers. She clumsily wiped her tears with her free hand, but quickly turns around when she feels your warm touch. When your stare met, she slowly takes a step forward and you already pulled her to your comfy embrace. You caressed her back gently, but pulled back when you realized that she didn't answer correctly. Yet, the moment she looked at you, tears started to flow by her eyes as she wrapped her arms around you and you keep whispering sweet nothings to make her feel better.
You wished that the time could stop, so you would have this moment always in your mind and heart. You never stopped to realize how much everything was perfect when she was right here and your arms or simply when you held your hands together… her hand would fit perfectly on yours…
Day by day you wondered how couldn't stand away from her? You couldn't comprehend why her touches, hugs and sweet words weren't enough for you anymore… Deep inside your heart, you knew you wished for more… more than holding hands or friendly hugs. Yet, you find yourself depressed since you knew you couldn't tell the truth to her since you couldn't risk losing everything you build with her trough the years because of your confused state.
You and she made several duets together through the years. At first you couldn't contain your happiness since it was something that both of you wanted. But everything started to get serious and twitchy when every time you two would sing; she was right there in front of you, smiling brightly with her moon crescent eyes and staring at you warmly. Sometimes you would feel the words escaping from your lips since everything you wanted was watch this beautiful angel singing only for you.
This feeling was making you almost insane. Every time you would see her interacting with other boys, you blood boiled madly while your heart ached. So, you would react in the best way to thought… being cold and indifferent since you didn't wanted that others could see the open wound in your heart… Passing days ignoring her or giving a cold treatment was a torture to you since every time you saw her eyes tearing in sadness, you tried to apologize, but she couldn't stand with your sudden mood change as she bursts in tears and yelled at you with her voice cracking:
"Damn it, Santana! What did I ever done to you to have this treatment?! Tell me truth for once! You keep bottling everything to yourself and don't tell me anything! I thought we were best friends!"
You clamped your mouth shut while she was staring at you intently and anxious for any answer. For the first time, you realized how those words "We are best friends!" could make a wound in your heart. Yet, nothing came since you couldn't understand your own feelings. You averts you stare from her and remains silent. After some seconds, she scoffed and shook her head saying in dismay while she made her way out for your room:
"Why was I expecting something from you? … If is this what you want… I won't disturb you ever again… Santana."
The sound of door slamming hastily wouldn't be so aching to your being like today. You simply seated on your bed, completely dead as one tear fell by yours eyes. You felt like a monster knowing that you have hurt the person you most cared in this world…
Weeks passed and your relationship with her didn't get better. You two weren't talking with each other or in some exceptions, you would talk only the necessary. Of course that the other members realized the huge tension between you two, but you never say a word. Even on the day Quinn Fabray stormed inside your room and cornered at you with an interrogation. She yelled at you madly while she told that she knew that every time your precious Brittany cried every single night asking to herself what she have done to you to make you forget about her.
You became completely silent when she told that Brittany was suffering because of you. You felt your heart aching deeply, even with your leader's shouts, that same sentence keep replaying in your mind. Finally, a tear ran by your cheeks as you burrow your face in your hands. You didn't want to hurt her, but this feeling was crushing your heart. The wavered words slipped from your lips as you sincerely whisper:
"I – I'm so-sorry…"
The other blonde realized how broken you were and felt sympathy of you. She seated at your side in the bed and wrapped her arms around your shoulders while she whispers gently while you looked at her intently:
"Why did you apologizing at me? She is the one you should say that."
Once again, your head stumbles to forward when you simply shook it in denial:
"I – I can't, Q… I'm afraid to hurt her again."
You heard a sigh followed by your best friend raising your head and staring at your eyes. It was when she finally asked something that you never asked to yourself:
"San… do you… love B?"
You frowned confusedly and quickly answer: "Of course I do." She shook her head and asked again into a serious tone, yet finally uttering your name perfectly:
"Santana… do you love Brittany… more than a friend?"
Your mouth dropped and your heart pounded furiously in your chest when those words echoed in your mind. Suddenly, every moment crushed to your mind and you realized that the most time you were really happy it was because she was right at your side. Memories of her sweet smile to you which makes you wordlessly; when she was absolutely beautiful and mature to your eyes when you silently admired her from afar or simply the amazing way when she hugged at you, nothing else matters…
After stare the floor blankly, your heart blossom with the sureness as you felt the same warm feeling spreading in your being. You slowly raise your head and looked at your leaded who already was smiling at you. Gulping deeply, you finally utter the truest in you:
"I… I do, Q… I… I'm in love her…"
"So go after her…"
More days passed and you tried to break the ice between you two. Every time you tried to talk with her, she simply ignored at you, still she would steal glances of you from afar. You started to make a plan what you could do to catch her heart and make her believe in your words.
However, in one day of a taping, you were staring at her intently while the scene was crushing your heart. Some meters away from you, there was a shy Brittany chatting with another guy… precisely a guy named Sam Evans. The latter was known to be extreme charming gentleman with the ladies… Once again you had a heartache knowing you couldn't stand a chance with a guy so well priced for the girls and Brittany wasn't any exception…
The moment you saw her eyes glittering while she was talking with him, you wanted disappear from that place. Not standing at more with the lovey dovey scene; as soon as you scene was over, you hastily dialed to your manager asking to any work out of your country and soon. He found odd since every time he called to photo shoots, you always delayed as much you could… but the truth it's that you wanted to stay at her side…
Yet, in the other day, he gave in as he told that you should prepare yourself in two days to have a trip to New York for a photo shoot. You thanked for the opportunity and quickly packed your stuffs to disappear from her sight. You remember the day you were leave to the airport; the usual company you have wish you luck and hugged you saying to you come back soon. Nonetheless, she was the only one who watched you from afar with her arms crossed and a hurt semblance in her face. You tensed your jaw while you two held an intense stare, but you finally broke it when you turn around to leave…
Seated on a hotel's room bed, you were bored as you were browsing on the net seeking for something interesting. The truth it's that your mind was screaming at you with the fact that yesterday was the birthday of your… so called best friend. You even weren't able to call to her to say "Happy Birthday, Britt- Britt!" You had your pride; suddenly you tried to convince yourself as you whisper angrily:
"Why would she need me when she has Mister So Perfect?"
You nibbled your lips in jealously and roughly tipped in your laptop almost breaking with your anger. Yet, everything stopped when you entered in a fan site of your show and stared the title intently "Brittany's Birthday Pictures 08.01.2011!". Taking a deep breath, you hesitantly clicked on the link and suddenly, several pictures of your bestie occupied your screen.
The first picture, she was holding a cake with five candles above it and pouting. You couldn't help to chuckle at the photo, she always were so cute. Then, you keep exploring the fan site until you find her photo with your show with all the cast. Although she was smiling, you knew that smile very well to know that behind those melting eyes… sadness was coming to the surface. Instantaneously, you felt a sudden desire to fly to her and hold her tight in your arms to never let her go again.
It was when you still staring her picture, something came to your mind. You realized that you couldn't stay away from her or even live without her. Aware from a future rejection, you didn't care anymore. You would take the next fly back to her, but not before pass in her favorite jewelry store to give a perfect present for her and wishing be a start of a new relationship… and a new love…
Finally back at 'home', you hurriedly dialed Quinn asking if 'she' was in the trailer. She said she left some minutes ago, you frowned but you found a perfect idea forming into your mind. You quickly thanked her and rushed to her trailer and you left your luggage hided it in your own trailer and practically ran to a flowery shop. Yet, not before say the truth to the cast, which they were practically your family and asked to them call to you once she was back.
At the flowery shop, your eyes searched for the perfect flower. All of them were beautiful, but you wanted a perfect one which it would describe your pure feeling for her. It was when you found a velvet tulip in the shop's corner; you smiled and grab the flower to take the scent. Hurriedly, you asked to the shop's owner make a beautiful bouquet of velvet tulips. Not too big or not too small, the bouquet's size was simply perfect.
The nightfall was coming and you find yourself rushing back to the trailer to confess your true feeling for her with a bouquet in one hand and elegant velvet box holding a beautiful ring while the another one was hanging in your neck. After inside the dormitory's yard, you took a deep breath for all running and adjusted yourself to meet her. You smiled widely when your eyes caught her from afar, but she couldn't see you since she was with her back facing you…
However, when you were about to take another step… you found the reason which made you left her days ago… Sam… The latter yelled her name from afar coming from an opposite direction and you saw her smiling at him. He was holding an elegant bouquet with red roses in his hands. You just stood there, completely motionless as you saw her happy and surprised reaction when she gently got the glamorous bouquet.
You gulped hard and your eyes widened when he pulled her from a passionate hug. Yet, this wasn't the worst… as soon they parted; you saw her head being lifted delicately by him as he out of sudden, kiss her lips right in front of you. You felt yourself shaking uncontrollably and your heart shattered into one million of pieces. Tears flew by your eyes as you felt a crushing pain in your chest. You couldn't watch that scene anymore, it was a torture… Your legs worked faster than an arrow as you dropped the bouquet on the floor and rushed to leave that place for once.
You keep running until your legs couldn't take it anymore, you desperately wanted to take this pain of your chest. You cursed yourself to be so stupid and believe that you have a chance to love and be loved. When you looked to your surroundings, you were in the city's park. Yet, the place was deserted since it was cold these days. Hot tears flows like a stream by your cheeks and knowing that you were alone, you finally screams of top your lungs while you shed your broken heart:
"WHYYYYYYYY?! WHYYYYYY?! WHY DO I HAVE TO LOVE HER!? SANTANA LOPEZ, YOU STUPID! YOU DON'T DESERVE HER LOVE!"
Screams echoed in the desert park, still crying, you dragged yourself to a bench in front of a beautiful fountain where you burrow your face in your hands. You slightly sobbed, this was so different from you, but you couldn't help, the pain was too much to bear. A wavered whisper in dismay came out of your dry lips as you keep your head down:
"Sh-she is right… why would she fa-fall in love with someone like me… I know I should b-be happy for h-her… but I – I wanted to be sel-selfish this time having her lo-love just for me… Bri-ttany Pierce… why do I have to fall in love with you…"
…
"San?"
You widened your eyes when you heard a familiar voice, that same angelic voice… you thought you would be crazy, but your delirious state stopped when you heard that same soft call again:
"Santana?"
You quickly turn around to find her staring at you with a melancholic expression. You tried to speak, but you weren't strong enough to. Yet, you stand up slowly and decided to be coward to disappear from her sight and not wanting her see your tears. At the moment you took the first step, you heard her running to you and holding your arm tight, but gently. You refused to look up, but when a familiar item was brought to your eyes, you became startled when you look the bouquet with velvet tulips in her hands.
Staring at her confusedly, she held the beautiful bouquet close to her heart and asked softly:
"This is … for me?"
You lowered your head again timidly and nodded reluctantly. Stealing a glance of her, you realized that she was with her eyes closed while she inhaled the perfumed scent. Suddenly, she looks at you and places her hand in your cheek to raise your head as she whispers gently:
"Your remembered my favorite flower… I love it, thank you, Sanny."
As much you felt that tingling feeling in your stomach and your heart beating fast, you couldn't understand why she was here… after she was kissing him! Remind the reason of your depression; you quickly removed her hand of your face as you tried to speak in your cold tone:
"Why are you here while your boyfriend it's waiting for you?! I bet his flowers are better than these…"
Her expression was hurt, but you have to keep your cold glare even when your heart was broken. She stared at you deeply with her eyes tearing as she genuinely asks:
"What are you talking about, Santana? YOU know that I don't have a boyfriend."
You couldn't help to scoff and mock a laugh as you ask indifferently:
"Oh you don't? So who is that guy who was kissing you?! You can't lie very well, Brittany."
Instantaneously she widened her eyes as she quickly shook her head and begs:
"Sam isn't my boyfriend, Santana! He was the one who kissed me! You have to believe in me" You tensed your jaw and felt the tears ready to fall as you whispered harshly:
"Yeah, of course… and you made a great effort to stop him… tsk you know what?! Forget it! Just leave me alone and go back to your precious Ken trout mouth!"
You glare at her coldly as you saw tears in her eyes as well. Not wanting to give in, you finally turn around to leave. While walking, you heard her bursting in tears as she yells at you with her voice cracking:
"There you go running again! He confessed to me, but I told him I just wanted to be his friend… because I already love someone else!... But you never let me speak! Why did you always have to act like this?! Why you never show your feelings to me?! Do you ever think how I feel when you leave me huh?! You are a damn coward, Lopez!"
You bite your inner cheek since you knew she was saying the truth. Yet, you stood still when you heard her sobbing as she finally speaks:
"Jus-just… answer me o-one thing… is that tr-true? Everything… you said earlier… it was true…?"
Widening your eyes, you realized that she was asking about your cry out, thinking that you were alone. You quickly turn around only to see her clumsily wiping her tears like she always do when she was sad. Your heart swayed inside your chest at the sight, you just wanted to forget everything to run to her and hug her tight. Yet, after knowing her confession, he won't lose this chance again. So letting you body move by it, you walked to her direction and stopped before her. She stopped her crying momentarily when she realized how close your faces were…
That time, yours eyes softened when you saw the moonlight glow shining over her, precisely at her teary eyes. You sighs deeply and gingerly wiped her tears with your thumb. Before she could call you, you cupped her face and speak while staring at her lovingly:
"Yes, Brittany… Every single word… I know I'm imperfect, cold sometimes and certainly I'm not the better one to fall in love, but… I love you and I'm so sorry for taking too long…"
You were about to continue, but you were interrupted when her index finger shushed you. Tears were streaming by her face, yet she was smiling caringly at you… how can be someone look so beautiful while crying? The answer was right there before your eyes. She is perfect in everything she does even without trying. Blush crept in her cheeks as she wrapped her arms around your neck and whispered lovingly at you:
"I… I was afraid to confess my feelings since I thought you wouldn't return it… but now… I can't find words to describe my happiness unless these… I love you, Sanny."
You sniffed loudly and your lips twitched to upward in how overwhelming were the feeling inside you… she loves you and this it's all that matters. Your heart thumped hard and you finally took her in your arms. Embracing her fondly, you two finally leaned with your eyes closed and let your lips touch hers… finally. The passionate kiss that both of you shared was beyond the words, you barely could describe your erratic heart. Suddenly, you brought her close to you, inside of your arms as if it was a gesture to not let her escape from you again.
While kissing, you felt her smiling against your lips as she cupped your face caringly. Stroking her silk and golden blonde hair gently, you two stay sharing your first and endearing kiss for some time. After some moments, you felt her pulling back when something cold touching your faces. Still inside of your arms, she looked around. She looked back to you with a cheeky smile plastered in her face as she whispers still looking in your eyes:
"I hope this is not a dream…" You gently grab her chin and utters with a gentle smile in your lips:
Brittany shook her head "No it's not and… finally…I am able to say me true feeling for you too" She blushed at your cheesy words and lowered her head shyly. You took this opportunity to give your forgotten present in your jacket. Suddenly, you hook the white velvet box inside your pocket and opens right before her eyes. She gasped in reaction and looked at you with her eyes widened and tears flowing again. You simply smiled and take the ring and placed gently in her finger as you whispers:
"This means that you are mine now… And I only belong to you."
You finish your sentence heartily while you hook your finger inside you shirt to show the same ring hanging around your neck. She took the object delicately in her hands as she couldn't contain herself anymore and wrapped her arms around your neck again. You became even more flustered when you heard her sincere words:
"I always was yours since the beginning… you just have to claim me in the first place…"
She pulled from your neck and stared at you passionately. You took her hand which was rested in your shoulder and intertwined with yours. Seconds later, you find yourself clasping her chin and pulling her for a lovingly kiss once again. You two stood there under the snow falling around you, yet both of you were warm than never inside the other's embrace and sharing burning kisses.
Several days later, in the middle of your performance in the 7th place of the show's concert tour, you got easily distracted as you frowned sadly when you saw her spot empty. You felt your heart squeezing in concern knowing that she was at the hotel alone due her injured leg, yet you managed to smile to yourself when you remembered her heartily words like: "You must keep smiling while I'm out, Sannybear" You unconsciously chuckles remind her silliness…
Once you were back to the hotel room you two shared, it was a true party… she would beam and hugs the other cast happily who also in your room to check you. But when she saw you, even limping, she practically runs to you as she wrapped her arms around you tightly and whispered sincerely:
"I missed you… Sannybear."
While she gave her most shining baby blue eyes smile, you simply melted and caress her face gently as you pull her back to your hug:
"I miss you so much too Brittypanda."
She chuckles at your, yet cute remark and pecks your lips shyly. Your fellows started to whine at your cheesy moments, until you send your cold glare at them making them gulp. You smiled in return as you dragged her to your room, holding her in bridal style towards the sofa.
Once you two were alone in your room, you gingerly placed her in your bed and made your way to her as you hug her tightly by her waist. She chuckles at your childish semblance and strokes your hair lovingly. Seconds later, you pulled from her comfy cuddling and stare at her attentively. She tilted her head to her side cutely and your hand stroked her cheek endearingly. She closed her eyes to enjoy your touch as she places her hand atop of yours; with your eyes glowing in true love, you lowered your head and plants a caringly kiss in her forehead as you whisper breathlessly:
"I love you…"
She opens her eyes and stared at you lovingly as she strokes your bangs gently and whispered against your lips:
"I love you too, San."
With that you filled the gap between you as both of you close your eyes and kissed each other with love. Your arms wrapped around her waist while her arms were around your neck and occasionally caressing your nape. You would always feel the shivers running by your body and your heart beating loudly… That moment you knew that you couldn't live without her anymore…
Months later, you traced a perfect plan to make your proposal and of course you would need your fellow's help. Yet, the day finally has come and you wanted something very big to show her how much she means to you. In the night of another award's event, your beloved one worked as a host with another member of your show. Both of them summoned the next performance, but the whole place turned black, yet you clearly could see her confused face from afar…
When the lights were on, your song you compose for the two of you "Endless Love" started as you came out behind the curtains and walked to her direction. She was with her mouth hanged open while you stared at her lovingly. Suddenly, you held her hand and keep singing with love glowing by your eyes. When the song was finally over which you literally finish all verses with the new arrangement, you smiled at her lovingly as you get down on your knees saying nervously in your microphone:
"Brittany Susan Pierce… will you marry me?" With that the whole placed waved at you and whistled as well. She hurriedly placed her tremble hand in her hanged open mouth as she bursts in tears and quickly nodded to your question. You felt your heart exploding in happiness when she speaks with her cracked voice: "Yes!" And pulled you for a tight hug, you close your eyes and hug her tightly. Yet, you heard the audience clapping and whistling at you two, but the moment she cupped your face and kissed you deeply, you find yourself completely blind and deaf to everything else…
[2015]
The great day finally came. You found yourself nervous and talking to yourself to keep your calm as your fellows were trying to do as well. Yet, everything stopped to you when you saw her wearing that beautiful white dress down the aisle and smiling coyly at you. Once she finally reached you, you couldn't stop smiling when you finally understood that today it was the day she will belong to you and you to her.
Sealing your sincere vows, you bring her to your arms and kissed at her passionately as everyone waved at you two. When she pulled from your kiss, she gave the best of her bright blue eyes as you smiled to your wife… Mrs. Lopez. You pulled her for another kiss which she gladly returned after wrap her arms around your neck while deepening the lovingly kiss…
Of course that after your ceremony was anxious to get out of this place to your awaited honeymoon with the love of your life. Everything passed so quickly, when you realized you already were enjoying beautiful scenery of the cruise's room. You suddenly turned your eyes to her and realized that it was glowing into a different flame. Both of hearts were pounding madly at this moment, then suddenly, you caressed her face tenderly with one hand and with your free one, you pulled her by her waist to your body and to your lips.
You two walked blindly in the room until you gingerly laid her on the bed and stared at her endearingly. She smiled warmly at you while her fingers wandered by your neck, you reach one hand of heard and kissed deeply. Not too much of that, you leaned and whispers like if it was the first time:
"I love you, Brittany Lopez. Proudly So." She wrapped her arms around you and whispered before kiss you:
"I love you too, Santana. Proudly So"
With that you two kissed each other with passion, love and care. That night was unforgettable to you two since it was your first night of love with her. You wished that everything could stop to make her stay in your arms like this… Words couldn't express your feelings, everything you ever wanted was right here…
If you ever asked to yourself What If this alternative reality it really exists…
I would say that it would happen something like that on the middle.
Since all we know that a Lopez's heart could only belong to a Pierce in the end, doesn't matter wherever you are.
