Here is chapter Four! Thank you for all who have followed my story so far. It means a lot!
I do not own Glee or any of it's Characters
I roll my eyes as Quinn, carrying an excited Caitlyn, and I make our way from the parking lot to the building of B&M's Dance Studio.
"I could have taken her myself Quinn, I did it perfectly fine on Tuesday"
"I thought I'd see what had you so interested" She teases
"You know what no, this is a bad idea. I'm leaving. You're just going to embarrass me" I say turning around to start walking home.
"Santana stop, I'm just teasing you. I won't embarrass you. Just please sit with me in the waiting room?" she pouts.
"Ugh" I groan "But one word about anything I told you the other day and I'm leaving" I tell her with a stern look.
"Mommy?" I nearly jump a mile, forgetting the fact she was the only reason we are here "Is Britty gonna be here?"
"Of course Sweetheart, she's your teacher" Quinn tells her as she opens the door to the studio.
"Britty's pretty" the little girl says with a smile
Quinn looks toward me with raised eyebrows and I just shrug. Of course Caitlyn would say that, Brittany's drop dead gorgeous.
"Quinn!" Tina yells as soon as we're inside.
"Hey Tina" Quinn says giving her a small hug.
"Hey Santana, Caitlyn" Tina says with a sweet smile
"Hey Tina" I say as I give her a small hug.
Quinn sets Caitlyn down and starts to wander over to the fish tank inside of the waiting room, I slowly follow behind her.
"Which ones you're favorite?" I ask kneeling down beside her looking into the tank.
"Dat one" She points to the puffer fish that just puffed up as she giggles.
"How come?" I ask her knowing it was because of how it puffed up.
"Cause its cheeks puffed up" She giggles again as if visualizing it again.
"Oh yeah?" I say "so if my cheeks puffed up I would be your favorite aunt ever?"
"Maybe" She tells me holding back a laugh
As soon as the word leaves her mouth I puff out my cheeks as much as they can go and cross my eyes. She starts giggling as I wiggle my head in her direction.
"Uh… San?" I hear Quinn say over Caitlyn's fits of laughter.
I look over at Quinn not changing my face, before noticing a taller blonde figure standing next to her.
I uncross my eyes and slowly let the air out of my mouth as I look at Brittany, hand over her mouth just barley holding in her laughter.
"Hey Brittany" I say slowly and as casual as I can. I swear every ounce of blood has now rushed to my face.
"I was just- we were- uh, the puffer fish…"I say pointing to the fish tank.
I look over at Quinn to see she's now in a similar position as Brittany was just in with her hand over her mouth, laughing at my embarrassment.
"Mommy, I have to potty" Caitlyn says walking over to her mother.
Alright let's go" Quinn says as she picks her up and walks her to the bathroom.
"You have a beautiful family" Brittany says once it's just the two of you.
"I'm sorry what?" I ask, not sure I heard the blonde correctly.
"You have a beautiful family, the three of you" She clarifies
"Oh gross" I say disgusted. Me and Quinn? Disgusting.
Brittany's taken back by my outburst of disgust, as she looks at me with furrowed eyebrows.
"I'm sorry but oh my gosh, gross" I grimace "Me and Quinn are not a couple, nor a family" I tell her.
Brittany tilts her head to the left the left in what seems to be an adorable look of confusion.
That's when I get it.
She thinks I'm Caitlyn's Mother.
"Oh, no. I'm not Caitlyn's Mother. I'm her Aunt, well sort of. We aren't blood related but Quinn and I have been friends since we were young so we're basically sisters which kinda makes me Caitlyn's Aunt. And she calls me her aunt so…" I slowly stop rambling with a light blush.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. I guess I just assumed" She says her face turning an adorable shade of pink.
"No! It's okay, I understand how you could assume it's just, Quinn well she's Quinn… Gross" I grimace again.
"Why am I gross Santana?" Quinn says from behind me as Brittany stands in front of me with wide eyes.
"Don't. Make. Eye contact." I tell Brittany "She may have the ability to turn you into stone"
"No! Mommy don't turn Britty into stone!" Caitlyn Shrieks as she runs over to Brittany, hugging her legs.
"Sweetheart, I don't think your mom will turn me into stone" Brittany says as she picks Caitlyn up "No promises for your Aunt Santana though" she winks at me and I swear I forget how to breathe.
"Oh… Well mommy don't make it hurt" She says and I can hear her mother laugh behind me.
"Caitlyn! I thought I was your favorite?" I gasp in faux hurt
"Yeah but how will I dance without Britty?"
"Yeah, how will she ever dance without me?" Brittany plays along in faux despair.
Just as I'm about to reply the door opens and in comes a running Daniel. He is the most adorable little boy she's ever seen. Sweetest too.
"Caitlyn!" he shrieks as soon as he sees her.
"Daniel!" Caitlyn shrieks, squirming out of Brittany's arms to get to him
Behind me Quinn and Emma introduce themselves seeing how their children talk non-stop about each other. At least Caitlyn does.
"I think I've been replaced" My breathe hitches when I realize how close she's gotten "he doesn't even care that I'm here now" She pouts and it takes everything in me not to lean in and kiss it.
"I don't know, I think you're probably pretty irreplaceable" I say before I can even think to stop myself.
Brittany just blushes and looks over to the fish tank to see Caitlyn showing Daniel the same face that I made to impersonate the puffer fish.
"You taught her well" Brittany teases as she nudges me shoulder.
"Only the best" I wink hoping it has the same effect on her as she has on me.
Her breath hitches.
I do.
"Well Britt, I'm going to go, your welcome for dinner tonight" Emma tells her before leaving. It confuses me. I knew they were close but I didn't know they were that close.
"Alright well I gotta get these rascals back there to start dancing and waiting for the others to show up" Brittany tell Quinn and I
"Okay, Bye sweetheart have fun" Quinn says from where she just sat herself.
"Bye babe, dance good" I wink at her
After they go in the room, I'm left in silence with Quinn.
"You were right" Quinn says breaking the silence
I look at her as if to ask her what she's talking about
"Brittany, you were right. She's gorgeous, she's amazing with the kids, and she's extremely nice. You should go for it. I can tell she thinks the same things about you. When you were playing with Caitlyn over by the fish tank, which by the way you should keep your face like that more often" I lightly hit her in the arm, laughing about how crazy I must have looked "Bit when you were doing that. You should have seen the look on her face. She looked at you like you were Jesus" after she finishes I get this weird tingly feeling inside.
"She probably just thinks I'm good with kids that's all" I tell her
"Just know if you don't go for her, somebody else will" She says and the thought of it makes me a lot braver than before.
After about an hour the kids and their parents slowly start dispersing until the only people left are Quinn, Caitlyn, Daniel, Brittany, and I.
"I'm going to take the kids to see the puffer fish once more before we leave" Quinn says, making it clear she is really only getting Brittany and I alone.
"Hey, uh do you like maybe want to grab a drink or something? Maybe coffee?" I say smoothly although my heart is beating way faster than it should.
As soon as the words leave my mouth I regret them because I can see in her eyes that she panics.
"I mean we don't have to, I was just seeing" I try to play cool
"I, uh I can't. I'm sorry I have to go" She says quickly. I never knew words could sting so badly "Daniel come on we have to go" She says already making her way to Daniel.
Once they're in the studio room Quinn gives me a look of pity.
"I'm sorry hun, she seemed like she liked you" She says with an apologetic smile.
"Hey Santana" Tina calls from the front desk. I almost completely forgot she was even here.
"Yeah?"
"Don't take it personally okay? She may have said no but Quinn was right. She looks at you sometimes like your god. That doesn't happen a lot for her" Tina says with an encouraging smile.
"Okay, thanks" I say with a smile
"You okay?" Quinn asks me quietly in the car, careful not to wake the sleeping girl in the back.
"Yeah, I barley know her Q" I tell her. And it's the truth I don't know anything about this girl besides what I could tell just by being around her for an hour.
"But I know I'm definitely not going to give up on getting to know her"
Thank you for reading, and let me know what you think. Anything I can improve I will!(:
