YAY UPDATES! Enjoy :)
I offered Brittany a ride to the club and she gladly accepted. So now I can't drink, but I can still stare at her like a weirdo because I'll make sure she gets drunker then Toby, the alcoholic hobo that lives outside my apartment block; I was one clever momma.
"So when did you start singing?" She inquired as we made our way to 'Boost'.
"I don't know, I guess I always liked it and I started Glee in High School because of cheerleading and it's a long story really." And I'm already telling her my life story; smooth.
"That's cool, so are you any good?" She winked cheekily.
"Of course I am!" I grinned slyly.
She smiled and we ended up at the club ten minute's later. I sat her down near enough to the front of the jazz bar and got her a drink. I brought a Cosmo to the table and we made small talk until the announcer called on me.
"And now tonight I'm happy to present to you, Ms Santana Lopez." He bellowed.
There were claps and cat calls as I made my way up to the front and sat down on the stool they had laid out for me. I looked to the band who already had the music I wanted. Brittany's eyes met mine expectantly and her lips curled into the most ravishing smile. I then looked back to the rest of the gathering and began.
I started my set with Rihanna's Russian Roulette and then moved on to Cee Lo's Forget You to lighten the mood. I sang some classics in the middle and then on to my finisher. I mean I didn't even know Brittany was going to be here tonight, but this song just fits so well it's scary. I hadn't really looked at her all night, but when I did look up I found her two blue eyes staring intently at me. I held the stare.
"Do you think
You could fall for a woman like me
'Cause I find it hard to trust
I need too much
And I really don't believe in love, no no
Do you think
That I could be the girl of your dreams
Sometimes I don't let things go
Get emotional
And sometimes I'm just out of control
You need to stop for a minute
Before you get too, deep up in it
(Too deep)
'Cause everything ain't what it seems
It's hard loving a woman
A woman like me
(Woman like me)
You need to think about it
Before you get hooked on the venom
And can't live without it
(No no)
Can't believe everything you see
It's hard loving a woman
A woman like me
Her eyes were wide and she gave me a goofy grin.
Do you think
That I could be the one that you seek
'Cause baby I'm one step ahead
You're two steps behind
But baby I don't mind
Do you think
That I can make you real happy baby
Just don't get me wrong
My loving is so strong
But I ain't tryna lead you on
You need to stop for a minute
(No no)
Before you get too, deep up in it
(No no)
'Cause everything ain't what it seems
(Seems)
It's hard loving a woman
A woman like me
(Woman like me)
You need to think about it
Before you get hooked on the venom
And can't live without it
(Without it)
Can't believe everything you see
It's hard loving a woman
A woman like me
Woman like me
Woman like me
Woman like me
Oh
A woman like me"
I finished and my little crowd clapped heartedly. I walked back and took my seat next to Brittany. Her eyes were starting to become glassy because I got one of the barmen to keep her glass full.
"Whoa San, that was really good, you have a really pretty voice." She said with a slight slur.
"Thank you Brittany." I blushed.
So I still wasn't sure whether or not sure batted for my team but hey she keeps complementing me, so I'm not gonna stop her. Then a guy wandered over to our table looking for some action. I put my hand up and he averted his gaze to Brittany. He tried to grab her arm and she tried and failed to pull away.
"C'mon baby, let's just have some fun." The sleaze oozed from him.
"No, I gotta... Ouch." He tugged rather harshly and that's when I saw red, seedy bastards always made my blood boil.
"Look dude if you don't leave her alone I'll call rape and get you banned from every bar in a twenty mile radius, I'm that good." I said sharply.
"You don't scare me bitch, I just want your friend here."
"San..." Her eyes pleaded with me to get rid of him and I so wasn't saying no.
"Look." I stood up and took hold of his arm. "If the best you can do is perve on girls that are so obviously out of your league, you should probably consider buying a blow up doll; maybe she'd consider you."
"You think you're so fucking clever." The guy said dejectedly.
I pushed his arm off of Brittany and he walked off in a huff. I looked to Brittany's wrist which was blotched with red marks thanks to that fucker. I rubbed it and she grimaced slightly.
"Let's get you home, ok?" I asked tenderly.
She nodded and took my hand. Her skin was so soft to the touch and warm in my palm. Her fingers laced in mine and I walked her to my car. I put her in the passenger seat and her inebriation now took full effect. I got in the driver's seat and started the car. I tried to get out of her where she lived and for about twenty minutes all she could do was giggle about have fast the world moved outside the window. She then eventually told me a street and we went up and down it four times until she recognised her building.
We walked in and all the apartment staff greeted her. I led her to the elevator and I propped her up on one of the railings.
"Alright, which floor?" I asked slowly.
She thought for a couple of moments before announcing that she lived on the top floor.
"Brittany you need a key to get to that floor. What floor do you really live on?" I asked again.
She fumbled in her bag for a while before producing a set of keys and handing them to me. I went through them and the odd square shaped key slotted itself in and I pushed the button next to it. The lift began to move and Brittany slowly slid down to a sitting position on the ground. Her eyes closed and she began to snore lightly. She was the cutest sleeper I had ever seen. So much for getting some; I didn't really mind though, seeing her sleep was worth it. The door of the elevator then opened.
I decided not to wake Brittany so I just cradled her up in my arms and walked in to the apartment after taking the key. It was an amazing penthouse, it was huge. I wondered how the fuck she could afford something like this if she was living alone. She had plasma screens, a fully fitted kitchen, views of the city to die for and a king size bed that was big enough for six people. I threw her bag on the counter and continued on down the halls. I made it to her bedroom and pulled back the duvet. I placed her down onto the bed and tucked her in. I ran my fingers through her blonde hair and sighed at her peaceful slumber.
I walked back to the main open living room of the penthouse in awe of the place. I needed to ask her where she'd picked up something like this being all alone in New York. That, however, was for another day. I made my way back to my car and drove home to my bring down of an apartment. I lay down in my barely single bed and fell asleep thinking of her.
Alrighty, what did you all think of the song? What do you want to see happen? I have something major planned so stay strong because I know my updates are less then regular... :( PLEASE REVIEW
