AN: sorry if this chapter seems a bit rushed it's because I just want to get the formalities out of the way so the real story can begin which will be the next chapter
Thank you so much for the reviews, alerts and favourites im really happy you like the story.
For the people who were wondering why I put Rachel and Santana together and not with a made up character. Two reasons 1. It's actually a big part of the story I have it planned out all ready I just didn't just put pezberry and quitt together there that way for a reason trust me. And 2. Im not gonna lie I loves me some pezberry! But this is not a pezberry fic so don't worry brittana is endgame and always will be
Now for those who want to know about faberry there will be faberry as I said I have it planned out. I honestly don't know if they will be endgame thought because the whole swapping girlfriends thing im not too sure about but if you want it let me know and I'll do my best to make it work.
Some people have told me it this story reminds them of the movie imagine me and you I really don't know what to say I've never seen the movie. Hope you like it anyway.
If anyone has any suggestions or anything they'd like to see happen let me know and I'll do my best to put it in.
I don't own Glee
End of rant and on with the show…
The Wedding Planner
Chapter 2:
This week was defiantly one of the longest and most stressful weeks for Santana. Life was always a bit hectic given her line of work but this week with the add pressure of knowing she was going to propose to Rachel was not helping her anxiety.
To say she was nervous was an understatement she was absolutely shitting bricks! Her taught were running wild on her. 'What if she says no, what happens to us? Do we go on been girlfriends? Can I still be with her if she rejects me? Will she even want to be with me if she says no? What about the apartment, who gets that?' those are some of the negative and crazy taughts she had going through her mind for the past week. Then she quickly reminds herself that Rachel loves her so of course she will say yes. She crazy for even thinking things like that. Rachel will be so excited she has dreamed about her perfect wedding since she was a little girl.
Then she starts to think about what Rachel will be like during the whole planning process. The little diva is a perfectionist. Everything down to the smallest detail will need to be perfect. No flaws, no matter what the cost. Just thinking about it gives Santana a headache and it hasn't even begun yet! She can only image what it's going to be like, but she loves Rachel and will do anything to make her happy and if that means she goes broke in the meantime so be it. She knows it will be worth it in the long run and laugh about it in years to come when there telling their kids.
Santana doesn't trust most people, she lets very few into her life. In fact the only people that know anything about her childhood back in Lima are Rachel and Puck. Puck knows because he was her best and only true friend back then, they went true everything together. He helped her out whenever she needed him, especially when it came to her father. Rachel only knows what Santana has told her, not much just little details. Santana does not like to talk about that time of her life and Rachel doesn't push her. If and when Santana wants to talk more about it she knows she will be there for her. Then there Quinn they don't really talk outside of work but they do get along really well and Santana wouldn't mind hanging out with her outside the hospital. She cool so she thinks of Quinn as a friend.
This week her interns try to avoid her as much as possible. They all know Dr. Lopez can be a bitch when she wants to be, but this week was like nothing they have ever experienced, it was like they were seeing the devil in the flesh. They have even started to call her Satan. Not to her face of course, no one would even look her in the eye. To scared of what might happen if they did. They were not stupid the know something was up to have her on edge all week, all they could do was pray it would be over soon for their own health.
Today was finally Friday. It felt more like a month to Santana instead of a week but it was here, tonight was the night. She had it all planned out. She had told Rachel she would be working a full day today and would be most likely to be home late. Rachel frowned hearing that, she didn't get to see her girlfriend all week. Both having a busy week at work. She only had one show tonight and was hoping to spend the rest of the night with Santana. Santana felt bad for lien to her girlfriend, it broke her heart a little bit seeing her hurt because of her. So she promised to make it up to Rachel. Rachel was instantly smiling at that Santana never broke a promise to her and that night would be no different. She was going to make it up to her and more.
Santana had it all planed out to surprise Rachel. She told her she was working but really she was at home preparing their bedroom. She bought enough candles to fill the room without over doing it. She also picked upped new satin sheets for their bed. Once she has the bed redressed she showered the bed with rose petals and made a new play list on her iPod full of romantic music. If there one thing she knows about Rachel Barbara Berry is she loves romance and Santana was going give it to her tonight. Make it the second most special night of life; the first was going to be the wedding night.
She has also bought a ticket for Rachel's show and ordered the biggest bouquet of roses the flower shop had. She is going to back stage when the play is over, to Rachel's dressing room to surprise her with the flowers and dinner. Once they get through the main course she is going to ask her. When and if she says yes she is going to shoot off a quick text to Puck, who will be at her apartment to light the candles and have the music playing.
"Yup you got this Santana and before the night is out you'll have yourself a beautiful fiancé. This is going to be great!" Santana said out loud to herself and starting to get really excited.

Rachel is in her dressing getting changed after tonight's performance. She still had the feeling she always gets when she's on stage running through her, even though she finished 20 minutes ago. It's like she will never get used to and she hope she never will. She loves that feeling, like she's alive and free.
She was just about to grab her jacket and bag when she hears a knock on her dressing room door. Most likely one of her cast mates wondering what she up too and to see if she wants to go for drinks. It is Friday after all.
When she opens the door she is completely taking aback. What she sees is the biggest bouquet of roses she has ever seen. It's not like she has never received flowers after a show because she has, quite a lot actually but these where something else.
When the person moves the flowers so she can see who it is, she can't believe it.
"Santana." She lets out.
"Hey Babygirl, you where amazing tonight!" Santana says loving the look of shock on her girlfriend's face.
When Rachel gets over the shock, hugs Santana and kisses her deeply, she just couldn't help herself she so happy Santana came to surprise her. When they pull away Santana says. "Well hello to you too." With a lopped sided grin on her face.
"Oh San I can't believe you're here, I thought you were working?" Rachel asks with a little bit of confusion.
Santana smiles at that. "Yeah well, I promised my supper hot and incredibly talented girlfriend I'd make it up to her for working so late all week."
Rachel honestly doesn't know how she managed to find someone as sweet as Santana. 'God she makes me fall even more in love with her every day. I don't know how she does it.' Rachel taught.
"I love you so much." Rachel says while wrapping arms around Santana's neck and kisses her sweetly.
Santana wraps her arms around Rachel's waist so there resting on her lower back and kisses her back. "I love you too, now come on I made reservations." Santana says while pulling back and taking Rachel's hand and leading her out of the dressing room.

Everything went by like a blur to Santana. Once they left the dressing room. One second they were getting a taxi and the next they were sitting in the restaurant nearly half way through there meal. It just all happened so fast and now the big moment is nearly here, her heart is beating so hard in her chest she's thankful for the music in the background because she is sure Rachel would be able to hear her hammering heart otherwise.
There waiter comes over to take up the now empty plates and asks them if they would like dessert. When there finished ordering he goes back to the kitchen.
Santana looks down at her hands and takes in a deep nervous breath. 'This is it Santana you can do this!' She says to herself for a last bit of encouragement.
Rachel looks at Santana with a worried expression. She knows Santana wants to say something important, but she not sure if she going to like it by the serious look on her girlfriends face.
"Santana…" Rachel calls for her to look at her. "Are you ok?"
"Um… ye-yeah." Santana stumbles out trying to get her breathing under control. With a final shake of her head, she looks Rachel in the eyes.
Santana reaches out her hands to for Rachel to take and when she does she smiles. 'You can do this.' She taught one last time.
"Rach we have been together for two years now and I love every single minute of it good times and the bad and I wouldn't change any of it. I still can't get over how someone one as nice, sweet, beautiful and perfect as you could ever love someone as cold, mean and not so perfect as me but for some crazy reason you do-"
"San-" Rachel try's to interrupt her. Rachel's eyes are glossed over with tears that are going to spill at any moment.
"Rea please." Santana says while getting up to stand in front of Rachel. She goes down on one knee and takes one of Rachel's hands in her own one and reaches into her pocket for her small box. When Rachel sees the black box she gasps and puts her free hand to her mouth. Santana carefully opens the box so Rachel can see the ring.
"Oh my God!" Rachel lets out.
Santana locks eyes with Rachel, usually eye contact so intense like that it would freak her out but not with Rachel right now in this moment. She feels completely at ease.
"Rea I love you so, so much, you make me the happiest person in the world. When I think about my future you're the only person I see in it and I don't want it to be my future, I want it to be our future… so Rachel Barbara Berry will you please do me the honour of becoming my wife?" Santana asks with hope filled eyes.
Rachel is full on crying right now she has never heard Santana speak so openly and straight from her heart like this. Santana soon starts to cry as well waiting for her answer. 'Please say yes, please say yes, please God let her say yes.' That is all that's going through Santana's head.
"…Yes." Rachel finally answers.
"Yes?" Santana asks making sure she heard her right.
"Yes, yes, YES!" Rachel laughs out with excitement.
Now they are both full on crying when Santana puts the ring on her finger. They hug and kiss each other hard and Santana picks Rachel up in her arms and spins them around. The other people in the restaurant start to clap and cheer for the girls. Santana and Rachel forgot they were still in a room filled with people, all could see were each other.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
