Disclaimer: I don't own anything Glee related.

Around 6 o'clock, Finn woke up. He was unaware of his surrounding at first, but then the events of yesterday night flooded back to his brain. Finn, then smiled, he went on his first date with Santana and it went great. He looked down at his chest to see a sleeping Santana, Finn thought it was immensely cute that Santana was sleeping on his chest with a small smile on her face. Santana would probably think the Finn was a creeper considering that he's been staring at her sleeping form for about 15 minutes, but he didn't care. A few more minutes of Finn staring at Santana like she's a goddess, he decided to wake her up. Finn woke Santana up by tickling her, knowing that she is extremely ticklish. At first, Santana just shifted a little, unaware of what was happening to her, but Finn did not give up, he kept tickling her. After a minute, Santana's mind finally registered the thought that she was being tickled. When Finn saw Santana's eyes opened, he went for her tickle spot, his fingers reached both sides of her stomach and started tickling her. Santana immediately jumped a little at the contact, her other response was to laugh her head off. Of course, Finn would choose a childish way to wake me up. Santana thought to herself. After another few minutes of Finn tickling Santana and her laughing till her stomach hurts, Finn stopped tickling her. He couldn't help laughing to, he loved Santana's laugh and smile, and to him, her laugh and smile is contagious.

"You suck Finn. I was having a nice sleep till you woke me up." a still laughing Santana said. At her little remark, Finn wrapped his arms around Santana and placed a kiss atop Santana's forehead.

"No, I don't suck. And you know it." Finn whispered into Santana ears, causing a shiver to run up her spine. Damn it, this boy is going to be the end of me. Santana thought with a smile playing on her lips.

"I hate it when you're right." Santana said, trying to hide from Finn seeing her blush by burying her face in his chest.

He chuckled. He loved it when Santana was like this, so full of life and happiness. Finn and Santana just layed there in content for a few minutes. The two were happy to be in each others arms, but moments like these can't always stay like this. Their moment was interrupted by Santana's mom opening her daughter's door.

"I hate to bug you two love birds, but breakfast is ready. It's your favorite San." Santana's mom said.

"Okay Mom. We'll be down in a few minutes." Santana said not even embarrassed.
Santana's parents maybe workaholics, but her mom worked a little less than her dad did. Most of the time Santana won't even see her dad for about a month, if they do see each other it was only for a few hours, but Santana and her dad make the best of time they had together.

"I'm gonna go take a shower. Is that okay with you?" Finn asked. Santana couldn't help, but laugh a little. Finn's cheeks were red due to Santana's mom being so cool with them being in the same bed in each others arms.

"No, go ahead. You can borrow my dad's shirt, but I doubt that you can fit into a pair of his jeans because you're to tall." Santana said heading to her mom and dad's room.

Finn went into the room with Santana, to pick out a shirt with her. When Santana was going through her parent's closet looking for a shirt, Finn took the time to think. I wonder how school is going to go today. I don't want to pull Santana away from a cat fight with Rachel. Maybe I'll ask Quinn and Brittany to keep her calm if Rachel does come up to Santana and start bitching. I hope glee club will be like yesterday, calm and relaxing. I doubt it though, Regionals is getting closer and Mr. Shue is going to work us to the bone like last year. Well atleast no one can steal the set list. Finn thought. His thoughts were interrupted by Santana throwing a shirt at him.

"This will fit you and the color suits you." Santana said leaving the room and going back to hers.

"Thanks, San." Finn said before he entered the bathroom to take a shower.

Santana doesn't really like taking a shower in the mornning. She hates taking a shower in the morning because she has to go to school and do glee club after school fore 3-4 hours now because of Regionals coming closer. She also hates it because in the shower people contemplate a lot about stuff and last time she took a shower in the moring she was 20 minutes late for school and she got in the shower at 6:30. Like Finn, Santana took this time when Finn was in the shower to think. He's so sweet. No one has ever treated me like Finn treats me. Santana didn't really had a lot of time to think because the smell of her mom's blueberry pancakes intoxicated her. She quickly got dressed, did her hair, make up, and went downstairs to eat those delicious pancakes that she gets every once in a while. 20 minutes have passed and Santana wolfed down 2 stacks of pancakes, a stack containing 4 pancakes, and a glass of orange juice. Finn finally got out of the shower and he was wearing his old pair of jeans and Mr. Lopez's shirt. He sat down and ate 3 stacks of pancakes and chugging down 2 glasses of orange juice.

"Did you like my blueberry pancakes, Finn?" Mrs. Lopez asked.

"Yeah, I did. The pancakes were amazing! Thank you Mrs. Lopez for the amazing breakfast." Finn said with a smile on his face.

He got up holding the dishes and the glasses hoping to wash the dishes, but Mrs. Lopez got the dishes and glasses and did the dishes, telling Finn to just relax and hang out with Santana before they had to go to school. Finn smiled to himself, Santana's mom was just like his, nice and welcoming. He walked into Santana's bedroom to see her getting her school supplies together. Finn snuck up to Santana and wrapped his arms around her waist. Santana jumped a little at Finn's little move, but she wasn't mad, she was quite happy.

"Hey." Finn said simply.

"Hey. Ready to go to school?" Santana asked.

"San, it's only 7 o'clock. Can't we leave at 7:30?" Finn asked, burying his face into Santana's hair.

"Fine. What do you wanna do?" Santana asked turning around to face Finn.

"I don't know we can just talk. I really wanna learn more about you. Your likes, dislikes, your dreams, why you love to sing and dance." Finn said staring into her dark brown eyes.

"Sure. Where would you like to start?" Santana asked, she was still shocked that Finn wanted to get to know her on a deeper personal level. She owes Quinn a big apology for once calling Finn a sorry excuse of a boyfriend. Then again, Santana didn't really know Finn, she thought that Finn was just like his best friend Puck, till she saw how Finn manned up and took major responsibility when he learned Quinn was pregnant.

"Your likes. I wanna know what you like to do, what you like to watch." Finn said. Santana lead him to her bedroom so that they can talk more comfortably.

"If you really wanna know, I like things that are simple." Santana said, she was going to continue till Finn asked her a question.

"How?" Finn simply asked.

"Well, stuff that are easy to understand, simple things like the sky being blue, the clouds forming shapes, a best friend that simply understands you. Simple like that." Santana tried to describe her definition of simplicity, but failed.

"I get it, it's like now a days, people are overanalyzing everything. They even over analyze a simple relationship with a friend or family member." said a smart Finn.

"You're right, that's what I was trying to say. Who knew? You are pretty smart." Santana teased.

Being Finn, he had to react to her teasing in a childish way. He stucked his lower lip at and said, "You're mean." in a childish tone. Santana couldn't help, but laugh at how childish he was.

"If I was mean would I do this?" Santana said.

Finn didn't have enought time to question Santana's remark due to the Latina crushing her lips against his. Finn reacted instantly. Never in both of their lives have they ever felt so much from a kiss. To Santana the kiss was full of passion, love, gentleness, and not full of lust like most boys that she has kissed. To Finn the kiss was perfect, he never imagined in a million years that he would be kissing Santana Lopez, not for lust, but for love, passion, gentleness. It's funny how the two think differently, but at the same time they think the exact same thing. They truly do balance out each other. When the two both pulled away from the kiss, they were breathless, but nonetheless, they were happy and smiling widely.

"Santana, we have to go to school it's 7:30." Finn whispered.

"Fine, but school is gonna suck a little, Berry is going to get on my nerves, especially during glee club." Santana pouted.

"It's going to be okay. Just ignore her and think positively. And please, no catfight. I don't feel like pulling my girlfriend out of a fight and worry about her being suspended." Finn said getting up and grabbing his keys on top of Santana's desk.

"No promises. For future references, Berry started it, I was just simply defending my wonderful relationship with my amazingly wonderful boyfriend." Santana said hugging Finn.

"Come on, let's go." Finn said. In his mind he hoped that there wasn't going to be any cat fights.

During the car ride to school, Quinn texted Santana. Santana was confused at first. Usually when Quinn texts Santana it's about an extra Cheerios practice. Santana prayed because she did not want another Cheerios practice, she was still sore from last practice, and last practice was three days ago. I swear, one of these days she's going to shoot someone out of a canon for a routine. Santana thought. She opened the text message from Quinn. It read:

Hey San, you're lucky today. Berry is gone for the whole day. She emailed the whole glee club this morning saying she couldn't make it because she has this meeting or something.

-Quinn

As Santana read the message, she couldn't help, but smile. Today was just going to be her and Finn, no Rachel annoying the hell out of them.

"Why are you so giddy?" Finn asked curiously.

"Rachel isn't going to be here because she has this meeting to go to or some other crap. That means that she can't annoy us. I hate to say this, but I'm looking forward to school a little." Santana said, still giddy.

"Well, that's good. Now I don't have to worry about pulling you out of a fight with her. The other good thing is that we can just hang out in glee club." Finn said.

After another few minutes, Finn and Santana got to school. They parted ways for first period. During the first period, Finn was trying to listen to the history teacher's lecture, but failed miserably, he ended up pulling out his phone and started texting Santana. Santana was happy when she got a text message from Finn, she was passing biology with an A, so she didn't really need to listen to the teacher this period, they were just reviewing. Santana opened the text message from Finn. It read:

Finn: Hey, San. I'm bored. :(

Santana: Tell me about it. Biology is boring, but atleast I'm getting an A in it.

Finn: Lucky. I'm getting a C+ not really meeting my mom's expectations. Well, atleast I'm passing. I have Quinn and Sam to thanks for that.

Santana: Somebody's a mama's boy. What do you mean you have Quinn and Sam to thank for?

Finn: Well since the start of Junior year me and Quinn rebuilt our friendship and Sam is like a new best friend. So they help me study. It was awkward at first because I felt like a third wheel, but now it's cool. Usually our study session is pretty fun, 2 hours of intense studying and 1 hour of relaxing and chilling.

Santana: Oh kool. Mind if me and Britt join? Brittany needs help with all of her subjects. Considering that since we started high school, she's been pretending to be a little idiotic at times.

Finn: Wait. What do you mean by Brittany pretending?

Santana: You know how last year and freshman year we were really worried about our reputations. Brittany is really smart, but she pretends not to be, so that she can't get slushied like Rachel, but she does have her moments, they are rare though.

Finn: Wow. I didn't know that. High school really changes a person.

Santana: I know. Well now we have Mr. Shue to thanks, he taught us that there's more to high school then just being popular.

Finn: Yeah, he's like a father to me at times. This is random, but what do you think of Kurt heading over to Dalton?

Santana: I think that it's good that he has somebody to look up to, like Blaine. It's weird not having around, he's usually trying to improve all of our outfits, mostly Rachel, but I do miss having him around. And it was nice of him to visit us yesterday.

Finn: Same. It's weird not seeing his baby face anymore. :(

Santana: ...Finn are you secretly gay?

Finn: Sorry, Brittany got a hold of my phone. You leave your phone on your desk for two minutes to take notes and she takes it.

Santana: Oh. That's a relief! :) P.S tell Brittany if she wants to text me she can use her phone.

Finn: Brittany: I can't I forgot my phone at home, and the battery died. :(

Santana: Oh Ok. That's good to know.

Finn: Brittany: Yeah. I really do need help with all my subjects though. I wanna get into a good college.

Santana: Hmmm. Well if we win Nationals this year and next year, the whole glee club could probably apply for a scholarship. If all of us help you with your homework considering you aren't the ditzy blonde anymore, you can get it to atleast a 3.5 GPA and you'll get into a college for sure!

Finn: Brittany: Thanks San! :D So how's bio?

Santana: Still boring. I just wish it would end already.

Finn: Brittany: Well atleast second period is glee club, Mr. Shue is probably gonna get us to work on a number to get us ready for Regionals. Then we have an after school glee club meeting for 3 or 4 hours.

Santana: Just what I need, more dancing and singing. We're just lucky that we don't have Cheerios practice this week because Coach Sylvester is on vacation. To bad she returns on Monday though. :(

Finn: Brittany: Yeah only 3 more days of freedom left. We still on for the triple date to Breadstix tomorrow?

Santana: Of course. This triple date is going to be awesome.

Finn: Brittany: I know!

Santana: I can't wait.

Finn: You're having fun talking to her then you're talking to your boyfriend. :(

Santana: Jealous?

Finn: ...Meanie.

Santana: Mama's boy.

Finn: You win.

Santana: I always win. :)

Finn: Sure you do -_- You can text Brittany, I need to write some notes down for the whole class. I'll see you in glee club. :)

Santana: Okay. See you then.

The whole class period, was Finn taking notes to study and Santana and Brittany texting away. Luckily for the blonde, History came naturally to her and she was already raising her grade. He current grade is now the same grade as Finn's, a C+. Finally, the bell rang, giving Finn 5 minutes to empy his backpack and head to glee club. As he walked in to the choir room, he saw Quinn, Santana, and Brittany talking, probably about the triple date tomorrow. Finn didn't want to interupt their conversation, so he decided to join Artie and Sam's conversation. The three guys talked about football plays for the next game, hoping they would win again. Finn decided to drop out the conversation and walked over to Santana and kissed her forehead.

"Cliche!" Quinn faked cough.

"Why is it cliche? You like it when Sam kisses your forehead or cheek." Brittany retorted.

"Touche." Quinn said.

"Can't blame Finn for being an amazing boyfriend." Santana said using a bit of a playful tone.

"Correction, we all have amazing boyfriends, Finn's not the only one." Quinn said as she and Brittany went to their boyfriends.

"They can be so full of themselves sometimes." Finn said.

"Agreed." Santana said giving Finn a hug.

Of course, Finn hugged back, but the hug didn't go as planned. When Finn hugged Santana, he had to arch he back a little because Santana was a foot shorter, so when Finn wrapped his arms around Santana, he heard a rip. Not a flatulence rip, but an article of his clothing ripped, turns out Santana's dad's frame isn't as big as Finn. Being the glee club being really close to each other, they bursted out laughing when they heard the big rip coming from Finn's borrowed shirt. Finn was relieved because it wasn' his pants. Santana didn't really help, due to her falling into the chair and laughing. Finn wasn't really that schocked, he knew that anytime of the day, the shirt that Santana let him borrowed from her dad will rip. He was just glad that it happened in glee club and not in front of the school. But, Santana wasn't going to get away with laughing her head off that easily, so Finn decided to throw Santana over his shoulder and run around the choir room till she demanded Finn to put her down.

"Finn! Put me down!" Santana managed to say, a laugh escaping her lips.

"Okay, I've had my fun." Finn said, putting Santana down gently.

"Can someone go into the boy's locker rooms to get my football jersey, this way I don't have to walk around shirtless the whole day." Finn said.

Mike volunteered to go. Finn took off his borrowed shirt, he didn't really wanna wear it any longer, it was sorta humiliating to were a shirt that has a huge rip going down the back. He was still a little insecured with his body, especially after the Rocky Horror debacle. He put the shirt in his backpack took a seat in a chair and waited for Mike to bring his jersey.

"I wanna lick your abs, but I'm dating Artie." Brittany said absentmindedly. Santana and Quinn looked at Brittany with a raised eyebrow. Artie just chuckled and shook his head back and forth.

"Where's Mike with my jersey?" Finn asked with little patience.

"Finn, chill. You're not fat, or flabby. You are toned. Now stop being a whiney little baby and man up." Santana said, with a semi serious look.

"Thanks a lot San for being supportful." Finn said with a light hint of sarcasm. What Santana said was true though, he was pretty toned.

"Here delivering Finn Hudson's jersey, is Mike Chang." Mike half yelled walking in holding Finn's jersey like it's gold

"Thanks, Mike." Finn said taking his jersey and putting it on.

After putting on his jersey, Mr. Shue walked in and started talking about the set list for Sectionals. The theme for Regionals this year was pretty interesting, the song they were suppose to sing had to be a love song.

"Okay, guys. Tell me what a love song is suppose to be about?" Mr. Shue asked.

"Love." Brittany said.

"You're right Brittany, but there's something more. When you sing a love song, it's suppose to come from the heart, that's why I'm setting up a little competition. Everyone, get into two groups of six." Mr. Shue said. Of course, the groups were pretty obvious, the first group consists of the three pair of love birds, the second group was made up of one pair of lovebirds, Puck and Lauren, then Mercedes and Rachel. The whole glee club thought it was best that Rachel was on the other team so that way she can't really take control, if she does, Mercedes and Lauren are going to "whoop her ass" as Mercedes would put it.

"Okay, the groups are decided. Now start thinking of a number, and the group with the best number, gets a trip to Breadstix, the best part, I'm paying for it." Mr. Shue said. Yes another chance to go to Breadstix for free! This is going to be an awesome triple date. Everyone in the glee club thought.

"Mr. Shue, when are we going to perform the numbers?" Tina asked.

"The performances would be after school on Monday. So you guys have 4 days to come up with the song and choreography. If you need me, I'll be in my office." Mr. Shue said, heading towards his office

The two groups started thinking about song choices, except Brittany and Quinn, the two were already working on the choreagraphy in their minds. Santana looked over to Finn, the day so far wasn't complicated like being in a relationship, it wasn't complicated talking to Finn, it was far from complicated when Finn's shirt ripped and he had to take it off, it was simple, their relationship was simple, it was full of love, passion, and adoration. Santana knew that this is the best relationship she has ever been in, because it was complicated like her friends with benefits relationship, it was a simple relationship between Finn and Santana.
