Chapter 3
I was supposed to call San yesterday but I was so busy with class that I had to settle for texting her between classes. I woke up late this morning. Luckily it's a Saturday so the only thing that I have planned is meeting with my study group in the library later & maybe hanging with a few friends tonight. I slowly get out of bed & stretch. I gather my things & head to the shower. Although dorm life is different, I've experienced worse, & I giggle to myself thinking of the own personal Hell Santana has to be living in with Hobbit & Lady Hummel as she so endearingly calls them. I miss her. A lot! And as hard as I try she pretty much consumes my thoughts. The shower has been my frienemy since that night in the hotel. It's the time I have the most privacy & the time I always think about how mind blowing sex with S was. As much as I wish I could just hop on a train & show up in NYC and just fuck Santana against the wall as soon as I see her... I know the living arrangements aren't exactly accommodating.
After a really long hot shower (in more ways than one) Iget dressed & head my favorite café to grab something to eat & a I sit alone I begin to fidget with my phone thinking about whether or not to make the call or not. My food comes & I notice a brunette staring at me from across the room. I smile politely at her and begin to pick at my food. I openthe picture S sent me & can't help but smile. I hear someone clear their throat. I look up & almost choke on my coffee at how beautiful this girl is,the same girl who had been staring at me just minutes ago.
"Oh my God, are you okay?" She asked a little frantically.
"I'm... I am. Thanks for asking." I giggle lightly as my eyes rake over her body. I'm cut off by her voice.
"I've seen you around we have a class together... Professor Thompson's American Literature. My name is Yael by the way." She reaches out to shake my hand.
"Well hi Yael. I'm Quinn, it's very nice to meet you. You wanna join me? My food just got here & it would be nice to have some company." She smiles & sits across from me. The waiter comes over to ask if she'd like anything but she declines. We make small talk & joke around untilI realize that she is flirting with me. I'm used to it. Everyone always flirts with the "pretty popular" girls, but ever since I've been here I feel like I'm one of many. I study Yael as she talks about being away from home. She's from Boston but her accent says otherwise. She's beautiful, breathtakingly so. She has long, thick brown hair. Skin that looks like it's been kissed by the sun. She's fairly thin & way shorter than I am but she has curves in all the right places. She kind of reminds me of Mila Kunis. I listen as she talks about softball & I tell her how I was a cheerleader & in the glee club. She laughs and says "Popular girl in glee club? That must have been interesting?"
"You have no idea! One day when we have more time I'll tell you all about it!" I've finished my meal & paid by the time I start packing my book in my bag.
"But I have to go to the library so I guess that'll have to wait." She stands up & walks in front of me & holds the door open. She is the perfect gentlewoman. Very polite, attentive, & extremely attractive. She walks me to the library and before we part ways I give her my number so we can meet up again. My mind was everywhere except the computer in front of me. I was supposed to be working, looking up research for my part of the group project. Instead my mind drifted to Yael. I have always been attracted to girls just never really wanted to cross that line with anyone except Santana. Santana has been my one since I was a kid, even when we both were with other people. But now I know that she's in New York & I'm here. I also know that she's not over Britt & that she doesn't want us to end up like they did. Having sex is one thing but being in a relationship with your best friend is a dangerous game to play. I really don't want to think about this so I bury myself in work for awhile which turned into five hours. We were basically finished with most of our work when one of the guys suggested we all go grab dinner. We go to an Italian restaurant that reminds me of BreadStixx. I really enjoy being here sometimes. It's like I get to be the person I'm meant to be & no one judges me for my past. Although no one will ever compare to my friends in Glee, the ones who know every bit of my past & still don't pass judgment.
It's almost dark by the time I get back to my room. I change into my pajamas and decide whether it's a Netflix kinda night or will I read some more of The Kite Runner. I decide on Netflix & settle on Pretty Little Liars knowing it's one of San's favorite shows. I throw the comforter over myself and pick up my phone. It's not late but I wonder if Santana is busy. I wonder if she has started her job yet or if she's made friends. I figure the only way to it out is to just call her. She's first on speed dial... I changed her picture to the one see sent last night & her name has been "Sexy S ;)" ever since she borrowed my phone at Thanksgiving & changed everyone's name. I shake my head at the thought. The phone begins to ring. One. Two. Three. Four. I wait for her voicemail but at the last minute she answers. "Hello... hey Q... hold on for a minute... don't hang up!"
I smile to myself. I hear people an Incubus song in the background. It's loud. Maybe she's out at a bar. "Okay sorry... I'm training at work & it gets a little crazy. But what's up?" She rattles off. God, how I've missed her voice.
"Q?"
I sigh "Hi." I want to kick myself for not telling my brain to work but I can't. She laughs.
"Hi. I've missed you too Quinn!" Then like old times the bitchy banter kicks in...
"Who said I missed you San?"
"You didn't have to Q. When you regressed back
to childhood by having nothing else to say but 'Hi' I kinda figured it all out
on my own!"
"Jackass..."
"Are you gonna say it or not?"
"Say what?"
"That you miss me Quinn..."
"Fine. I miss you. Are you happy?"
"You know what? I'm at work. My first day & I use my only break to talk to you. Then you give me some half ass emotions. Same old..."
I cut her off. I never want her to see me as the same old anything I wanted to be the me she said I love you to that night.
"San, I miss you okay? I miss you like I miss Summer time. I miss you like I miss cheerleading. I miss you like spending time with family on the holidays. I miss you like my favorite song & I haven't heard it in awhile." I run out of words.
"Well I didn't expect you to get all poetic on me but I have to say I like it. When did you stop being a cold-hearted bitch Fabray?" Without even thinking I retort
"When I gave my heart to you."
There was an awkward silence. Then someone in told Santana she had 5 minutes before having to get back to work. "Um. Q? I have to go back to work. So you can go back to what ever sappy show you're watching or intellectual stimulating book you're reading." It bugs me how well she knows me.
"Yeah yeah Santana maybe I have plans tonight." I could hear her smile through the phone.
"Okay well have fun then! I'll talk to you soon."
"Yeah. Thanks. Good luck with your new job. And I'll call you again some time this week." I hear her talking to someone who isn't me
"Look I'm sure you miss your girlfriend but tell her you'll sext herlater or something." She laughed a little too hard at the womans comment replied "Just let me tell her I love her & I'll be right up."
Did she not correct her when she said girlfriend & did she say she had to tell me she loves me?!
"Okay. As you can see or hear rather I have to go. And thanks for wishing me luck! I'm gonna get fired my 1st day because I don't wanna hang up with you." She laughs again.
"Santana... GO! I love you. Just call me when you're off work even if it's just to say goodnight."
"Okay I will. I love you. Bye."
And the line went dead.
I laid back & let out a sigh of relief not completely awkward. It could've been worse. I push play on PLL & close my eyes. I slowly start to fall asleep when my phone buzzes without hesitation I answer it "Hello..." not really caring who it is but more so trying to hurry up so I could go to sleep.
"Hey. It's Yael. I was just wondering if you were up for a girls night. What do ya say... you, me, pizza, some chick flicks."
I laugh but agree to it. She still has to pick up the pizza so it gives me time to straighten up my room & myself. I change out of my usual pjs & into short black shorts and a v neck white t. I run my fingers through my hair & then I hear a knock on my dorm. I open it & there she is, but so are the butterflies from earlier. She has a box in one hand beers in the other. I take the beers & invite her in. She is wearing a leather jacket with a hoodie, black jeans, and combat boots. She sits the box on the desk & I suggest that she gets comfortable. She takes off her shoes, jacket, and hoodie. She notices that I'm watching PLL & begins to talk up the plot. I tell her I've don't really watch it even though I'm lying and she convinces me that's what should watch. We sit on the bed, eat pizza, drink beers, and watch the show. I laugh to myself when I think that Emily looks like Santana & she's a lesbian too! Emily & Maya are hot! Like San & I! Wait... when did my mind start thinking in "us" & "we!" I guess I was thinking too hard because Yael nudged me with her elbow. "Earth to Quinn!" We just laughed & continued watching the show.
After we had been watching the show for awhile my phone began to buzz. Yael took it off the charger & handed it to me. It was Santana. Should I answer it? Of course I should. But what if she wants to talk for awhile & I tell her I have company so I can't be rude. Then she'll be her usual self & get all standoffish because it's late ugh! I answer quickly "Hey you." I get chuckle & a "Hey yourself. I wasjust calling to say goodnight. I'm about to shower & pass out my body will hate me in the am if I don't get some sleep."I smile knowingly a grumpy San is not something anyone wants.
"Okay babe. I'm happy you called. I guess we'll catch up on work & school tomorrow." I see Yael's eyes dart in my direction then back at the screen. I hear Santana yawn. "Okay sleepy head go shower before you fall asleep."
She answers already half asleep "I am. I love you... get some rest!"
I can't help but smile "I love you too San. Sweet dreams."
I hang up and lay my phone in my lap. 10 minutes later my phone buzzes again. I look down at it.

I quickly type back "Yeah well you like it!"

"Put that away!"

Or what? :P
"Put it away or I'm gonna make you use it!"
Yael notices how engrossed I am in my phone. "Hey Quinn. I think Imma just head out. It looks like your girlfriend misses you & I can't say I blame her."
She stands & gathers her things. I think about telling Yael Santana's not my girlfriend but I don't. I thank her for an awesome evening & tell her maybe we could grab lunch or something soon. We hug... she lingers. She smells amazing & her body is soft & firm. I like that she's shorter than me. I smile & wave then rush back to my bed & phone.
1 new messages from Sexy S ;)
Gonna make me use it huh? Well since we're two hours away how about you call me tell me what you want me to do when I see you.
I remove my shirt & shorts slip under the sheets before I make the call. Her voice is raspier than usual I'll assume from a mix of sleep & sexual frustration. It doesn't take long before she is asking "What are you wearing?" And it sends chills down my spine.
"Nothing... absolutely nothing. What about you babe?"
She moans at my use of babe in my bedroom voice I can only assume.
"Just a t-shirt & some panties." I close my eyes & imagine her in just that.
"Q... Touch yourself for me..." and I do, how can I not?!
