Santana walks into the living room where Brittany is reading a book about cats.
"Brittany, I have something that I want to talk to you about." She sits down across from her girlfriend.
"Okay Santana, what is it?" Brittany puts down her book and takes off her reading glasses.
"Look, I have to tell you a secret, a secret that I've kept hidden for awhile now," Santana looks at her hands.
"What is it San? You can tell me anything" Brittany tries to take Santana's hand, but she pulls away.
Santana starts, "Brittany, you're the most special person in my life…"
"Oh my god" Brittany gasps "Santana are you pregnant? I saw a stork outside our window yesterday and-"
"No no, It's just that, we've known each other since we were five, and you've always been so strong and worked so hard. In school, you always tried your hardest even though it wasn't really your thing. You've always done exactly what you believed in Brittany, no matter what other people thought. And I've always struggled to do that in my own life." Santana's voice hitched in her throat.
"San, where are you going with this? You're the strongest person I know." Confusion clouds Brittany's eyes.
"Brittany, I love bread, the way I'm supposed to feel about girls. It's just something that's always been inside of me, and I want to share it with you because I love you, so much. I want you to know me, who I really am. When I'm with bread, I finally understand what people are talking about when they talk about love. I've tried so hard to push this feeling away, and keep it locked inside, but everyday just feels like a war. And I walk around so mad at the world, but I'm really just fighting with myself. I don't want to fight anymore, I'm just too tired." Santana finishes her speech and starts sobbing.
Brittany cocks her head to the side; she doesn't understand what just happened.
"San, what are you talking about? If this is about Breadstix closing, we can figure this out. We can do anything together. We're Brittana." Brittany tries to take Santana's hand again, but the Latina stands up and starts walking towards the door.
"I have to just be me."
Santana pulls a breadstick out of her pocket and leaves the apartment.
Brittany sits alone in the living room. This is the first time Santana has left her. She doesn't know who to turn to now that the only person who's always believed in her just walked out on her life.
