So, I hope you liked the first chapter and I hope you like this one as well! This one has more language in it because Santana is one of the main people in this chapter. I love Santana, even though most people don't because they think she's a bitch. I think that she would be helpful to Rachel and Quinn when they are trying to figure stuff out (even if her words sound harsh in this xD) The next chapter is set to be alot longer than this one and the previous one are. I think they will get longer overall after these few, they just seemed good places to stop. I hope you like the chapter and tell me what you think! :)

Chapter 2: Realizing

Quinn walked into English and sat down next to Santana after giving a quick apology to the teacher, who let her off with a warning. Santana gave her a curious look and ripped a piece of paper out of her notebook and quickly scrawled something before handing the paper to Quinn.

"Where the hell were you?" Quinn rolled her eyes and wrote back.

"I ran into Rachel in the hallway, and it made me late, why?" She saw Santana give her a look before she wrote back.

"Are you saying you actually talked to the Midget long enough to make you late? What the hell were you talking about that was so fucking interesting?" She stealthily handed the paper to Quinn. Who scoffed once she read it.

"No I mean I actually ran into her and knocked her books all over the place and we banged our heads. So I was helping her pick her stuff up," Santana laughed quietly at this.

"Aahhh...well at least there was some type of banging going on," Santana chuckled again at the appalled look on her friend's face.

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Seriously Q?" Quinn knew what she was getting at but she was curious as to how Santana knew. She had yet to tell anyone, best friend included, that she liked Rachel...or that she even liked girls at that...

"Seriously S." Santana sighed.

"Okay Q. Lemme say this as bluntly and gently as possible. You fucking like Berry. I know you Q, better than you know yourself sometimes, it seems. And I can tell by the way you eye-fuck the Dwarf whenever you see her that you are hot for her. You light up when you see her and you are less of a bitch when you are around her. You guys are good for each other whether I like it or not," Quinn was slightly nervous at how long Santana's response seemed to be and when she read it, there was a mix of shock and fear on her face.

"Shit. Am I really that obvious?" Quinn was panicking. Santana saw this and knew she had to calm her down.

"Only to me you are because I understand the feelings you have for her..." Santana shyly handed the paper to Quinn.

"You mean...with Brittany?"

"Yeah"

"Oh..."

"Anyways you need to talk to her cause it's obvious she likes you just as much as you like her"

"But...how can you be so sure San?"

"Because I see the way she looks at you when you aren't looking at her. She wants you Q. And its damn time you two get together," Quinn couldn't hide her elation at Santana's words. But it soon turned into trepidation. Santana saw it in her expression and quickly snatched the paper back and scribbled something on it furiously.

"FUCKING GROW A PAIR Q!" Quinn couldn't help but laugh at her friend's rashness.

"Alright! Alright! Keep your spanks on! Jesus! I'll...I'll talk to her the next time we're alone! Santana scoffed at her friend.

"Ha-you wish Q. Damn straight you will."

"Whatever."

"You're welcome Q," As Santana was writing, Quinn reached into her bag, only to see an unfamiliar notebook in there. She brought it out and looked at it confusedly. Santana saw it wrote something else.

"The fuck is that?"

"I think its Rachel's," Quinn opened to the front and indeed she saw Rachel's name written in the book in a very pretty handwriting with a gold star next to it. She smiled at Rachel's adorable predictability. She heard Santana gag and then had the notebook snatched from her grasp. She tried to grab it back from Santana until the teacher cleared her throat so she stopped and tried to ignore Santana's pleased smirk. She saw Santana flipping through it looking bored until she flipped to a page at the end of the book and she sat up straight in her seat. Quinn tried to look at what had Santana quietly laughing her head off. Quinn grabbed the paper they had been writing on back and feverishly wrote on it and thrust it towards Santana.

"Well? What the hell did you find?"

"Hahaha! I was right!" Quinn grabbed the notebook quickly from Santana while she was preoccupied laughing. She flipped to the page Santana had been on and she couldn't hold back the smile.

It was just a doodle Rachel had drawn, probably bored in a class. But it still made Quinn's heart soar. It was Quinn's name written in script with a heart surrounding it. There were little silhouettes of bird's that were perched on top of the heart. It was quite beautiful actually. And now Quinn knew for sure that Rachel did indeed have a crush on her. She couldn't contain her delight. She looked over at Santana who rolled her eyes yet smiled sincerely at Quinn's happiness. Santana grabbed the paper and wrote in huge letters then held it up for Quinn to see.

"Fucking told you so," Quinn laughed and then jumped when the bell rang. She and Santana scrambled to put their stuff away. Quinn grabbed the notebook as they got up, and Santana said "Dude, that notebook is a gift from god...or maybe the devil considering..." she laughed when Quinn rolled her eyes with a smile on her face.

"I'm serious Q! Now that you know the truth, fucking act on it!"

"Santana, it's not that easy."

"Yes it fucking is Q! Just go to her house to give her the notebook and tell her how you feel and fuck her already!" Quinn stared at her friend with something akin to distress and worriedly checked the hallway to make sure no one had heard her.

"Sshhhhhh!" she said as she pulled Santana into the bathroom. She assured that they were alone before she spoke again.

"I am going to use this to my advantage San, I promise, but just let me do this in my own way. I just need some time to process everything before I act so I can make sure I don't fuck it up. I will talk to her in Glee tomorrow," she saw Santana visibly soften.

"Alright Q. But I'm serious; you need to use it to your advantage."

"I will. Hey, what did you do with that page of notes?" Quinn asked

"No worries, it's in my bag, your secret is still safe with me Q," Quinn visibly relaxed.

"Alright, thanks San," Santana smiled.

"No problem bro," Quinn smiled back and walked out of the bathroom. Santana smirked at her friend's retreating back. They better figure this shit out.

I hope you liked the second chapter! The third one will be up soon and I will play it by ear there after. Thanks for reading!
