"Wait you two know each other?" Rachel said her eyes moving from Santana and Brittany.
Santana's jaw had dropped slightly and her eyes were wider than normal, this had been such a weird morning and it wasn't even 8am yet. "We met last night, Brittany actually helped me look for Quinn." She thought she would never see the blonde again. Brittany was looking equalling as confused but she was still smiling widely at the Latina. Santana could feel butterflies playing in her stomach and she felt a small blush creep up her cheeks, before long a small smile was dancing at her lips.
"So what are you doing here?" Brittany said, walking properly into the room and standing next to Rachel, opposite Santana and Quinn.
"We're staying here for the rest of summer and leaving in four weeks, starting at NYU in the fall." Santana replied, still not taking her eyes of the smiling blonde. When Santana stated this, Brittany's smile grew even wider.
"Oh this is going to be totally awesome, we're like roomies! I can't believe it." Brittany giggled.
"We haven't booked our flight home yet but we're probably going back to New York at the same time. Brittany's at Juilliard and I'm at NYADA!" Rachel stated excitedly, she moved closer to her best friend and hugged her tightly.
Quinn who had been quiet during this whole exchange finally spoke up, the blonde had been trying to process everything that had happened- "So wait let me get this straight- I met Berry- sorry, Rachel last night she looked after me and took me home. Rachel thought that she was taking me back to her hostel room, but we're actually staying in the same hostel, in the same room.." Quinn said, finally speaking, "And you two met last night?"
"Security told us that someone had put you in a cab home. So we decided to stay at the club- we got drunk, danced then said bye at the end of the night, never expecting to see one another again." Santana paused, then sent a smirk in Quinn's direction, "I came back to find you and Berry getting cosy together- "
"SANTANA!" Quinn snapped, punching her friend lightly.
Brittany looked confused as she turned towards the small girl "Rach?"
"Quinn was merely hugging me to thank me for making sure she was safe last night. Don't worry Britt." Rachel said laughing as she rolled her eyes in Santana's direction.
Santana just laughed and winked at Rachel, although she had only known the small girl for a short time she could tell how easily she got worked up about stuff, Santana immediately liked her, the brunette was feisty.
"So did you guys come here straight from Lima?" Rachel asked.
"Oh we're from somewhere called Lima too!"
"Yes Britt, they're from the same place as us, how crazy is that?"
"Wow that's like, Super crazy."
"No actually, we have been travelling around Europe for the past few weeks, London is our last stop. It's been amazing though- I'm just so happy to get away from Lima at last." Quinn said softly, her eyes settling on Rachel.
"Oh wow, that sounds fabulous, you have to tell me about that later!" Rachel said excitedly, Quinn just smiled and nodded in response, "I haven't actually been back to Lima for a while, I really should go soon though, I think I owe my Dads a visit. We Skype all the time but it's not the same."
"Dads, as in plural?" Santana questioned, quirking her eyebrow in the direction of the diva.
"Yes- do you have a problem with that?" Rachel's features steeled and she frowned at the Latina, Quinn just laughed from beside her.
"I can assure you Santana has no problem with that at all, do you San?" Quinn said, nudging her best friend.
"Nope, just interested that's all."
Rachel's features relaxed and the smile tentatively returned to her face, Brittany felt uncomfortable with the tension that was in the air. That had been weird, did Santana have an issue with gay people? Brittany was still frowning when Rachel spoke again.
"What high school did you go to?"
"McKinley high" Quinn said, before sitting down on her bed.
"We went to Lima Heights High School. Did you have that psychotic principal? I heard she once set dogs on a freshman because he accidentally parked in her space." Rachel said, her eyes were wide with shock.
Quinn and Santana looked at each other and burst out laughing, they weren't surprised that Coach Sylvester's reputation was known throughout Lima, but they still found it hilarious. "I remember that…She was furious!" Quinn said through tears.
"And that was Coach on a good day- trust us we would know. We were Co-captains of the Cheerios so we had to put up with her shit everyday! That woman was a bat shit crazy motherfucker" Santana laughed crudely.
"But you've got to admire her for it…We won cheerleading nationals every year because of her." Quinn laughed.
"You were Cheerios?" Rachel said raising her eyebrow at them. The Cheerios were known by everyone, they were one of the best cheerleading teams in America. Admittedly Rachel knew very little about cheerleading but she was impressed.
"Can't you tell? We didn't get bodies this hot from nothing!" Santana said winking at Rachel, causing the shorter girl to blush violently.
Brittany just laughed before she blatantly looked up and down at Santana's body, checking her out. "You're not lying there." Now it was Santana's turn to blush, as she sent Brittany a small smile.
"So…I can only assume that you two are eager to see London? Brittany and I would happily and very willingly show you around later. We could show you a less touristy view of London that I'm sure you would find quite satisfactory! The past few weeks being here have led us to become well acquainted with the city." Rachel said, speaking in an excited manner, in fact the small girl was practically bouncing with excitement.
"That would actually be really nice," Quinn said gently, smiling at the diva, "Thank-you Rachel."
"For reals, that would be cool Berry…But I need my beauty sleep now it's 6am!" Santana said before yawning widely. She was fucking exhausted, she had spent her night looking after Quinn, losing Quinn, searching for Quinn then eventually dancing with Brittany. A small smile twitched at her lips just thinking of the night, she had had a pretty good time. While Santana was thinking about the strange night she had, she heard Quinn scoff from next to her.
"Yeah, you need all the beauty sleep you can get S- you look like shit."
"You don't look too peachy yourself…LUCY." Santana said, sticking her tongue out at her friend. She knew that Quinn hated to be called Lucy, and sure enough it was quick to get a rise out of her.
"Eww put your tongue away, I don't wanna know where it's been."
"Wanky" Santana said smirking, Quinn just rolled her eyes and lay down on her bed.
"I'm going to the gym but shall we arrange to leave here at 11.45am? That way you should all be refreshed and ready to see the city!" Rachel said with a keen smile, the three other girls murmured their agreement, nodding their heads. Satisfied Rachel marched out the room towards the gym. However, the small brunette had clearly forgotten she was only wearing a towel. Santana gaped at the door.
"Is she for real?" The Latina laughed, catching Brittany's eye. Quinn jumped off her bed and quickly followed her new roomie out the door, to tell her about her mistake.
"She actually does that a lot…" Brittany said, through a fit of laughter, "I'm not complaining, I mean duh, she's got a smokin' body. I get she probably wants to show it off, but even I remember to put clothes on!" The blonde said laughing even harder when a very embarrassed Rachel walked back through the door, with Quinn snickering behind her. The diva was flushed red, but still she strode confidently back into the room.
"It appears that clothing temporarily slipped my mind." Rachel announced before she grabbed a sports bra and running leggings from her suitcase and entered the bathroom. Moments later she returned, and Santana couldn't help herself as her eyes made their way down the shorter girl's body, damn, she had some great abs on her. Santana looked over at Quinn, expecting to see a disapproving look on the blonde's face for her blatant ogling, but instead saw her friend wide-eyed looking the girl up and down.
"Quinn you're practically drooling, shut your mouth." Santana hissed quietly so only the blonde could hear, nudging the ex-cheerleader.
Quinn's eyes quickly shot up and she turned a brilliant shade of red- something that was quite uncommon for the HBIC to do. Quinn punched Santana's arm, before she collapsed back on her bed. Quinn's mouth had gone dry as she felt moisture accumulate elsewhere, and there was a familiar throbbing between her legs. Fuck, what was happening to her? It was probably the drugs she thought- yes it was definitely some sort of after-effect from the drugs.
"Well now that I am fully clothed, I will be going to the gym. I would lose my head if it wasn't screwed on!" Rachel said, with an awkward laugh.
Brittany looked slightly confused, as she moved her head from side to side- as if to check that hers was screwed on tightly enough. "Rach, I didn't know you could lose your head- Can you check that mine is on properly please?" The tall blonde spoke, the panic was evident in her voice. Santana stared at her, her heart melting a little, who was this girl? Her innocence was so damn adorable. Santana wanted nothing more than to squeeze her cheeks and hug her, or other mushy stuff that Santana would normally gag about. Hah, she thought- wanky.
"B, it's just an expression, remember we talked about these? It's just a figure of speech!" Rachel said, smiling brightly at her tall friend.
"Oh! Like, 'Grass is always greener on the other side of the fence'? Because I checked once and I think it was the same shade of green.."
"Exactly, now I will see you later okay? Try and get some sleep you must be exhausted from last night B." Rachel said before reaching up to the top bunk and placing a small kiss to the Blonde's temple. Santana frowned at the interaction, although she didn't know why it bothered her so much.
Brittany awoke a few hours later, to a soft snore that was filling the room. It wasn't loud and annoying like Rachel's snoring usually was, but it was relatively quiet and as she looked over from her bed, across the dark room she could see it was coming from the small Latina girl. Brittany smiled and watched her for a while as she snored softly. She saw movement from the bottom bunk and her eyes darted down to Quinn. Her heart jumped as her blue eyes met hazel. Quinn was awake and she was staring at Brittany with a mixture of curiosity and a knowing look, with traces of a smirk playing at her mouth.
"Oh..I didn't realise you were awake Quinn!"
"Clearly." Quinn said smirking slightly at the other blonde. Brittany didn't know what to say, had it been that obvious that she was watching Santana sleep? Oh man, Quinn probably thought she was a complete creep now. What if she told Santana? Wait, why would it matter? Brittany had only just met the girl- she shouldn't care what the Latina thought. But somehow she did care, she cared a lot.
"Urh it's 11.15, I should probably get ready and shower-"
"SANTANA- Get your lazy ass out of bed" Quinn said loudly, but steadily, cutting the dancer off mid sentence.
"Urh, whaattt?" Santana murmured, "Shut up Q. I was sleeping!"
"I know, you were snoring so loud you woke me up- but anyway we need to get ready to go out."
"Oh pleasee, Santana Lopez does not snore, shut up." Santana said defiantly, before leaning over the bed and throwing her pillow at Quinn. Santana Lopez, her surname was Lopez, Brittany thought, replaying the name in her head- it suited her.
"Brittany tell Santana she was snoring and I'm not just making it up.." Quinn said, raising her eyebrow towards the other girl.
Shit, she knew I was watching Santana sleep! "Urhh…well um..yeah maybe a little bit?"
Quinn snorted and poked her tongue out towards Santana. The Latina looked shocked and glared at Brittany in a playful manner. "Why are you taking her side!" she asked jokingly.
"It was cute, don't worry. You should hear Rachel snore- she sounds like a horn!" Brittany said laughing loudly, while Santana just blushed, and Quinn rolled her eyes before walking towards the showers.
"Come on lets get ready, we have a long day ahead of us San" Quinn stated before shutting the shower room door behind her.
A/N: I still haven't quite decided on the writing perspective yet- I know i'm really bad.. That's why it kinda jumps from person to person (which I quite like) But let me know what you think about it...
Right, I'm sleeping now- I haven't slept in 2 days so just running on coffee.
I hope you liked it! And it wasn't too obvious I'm exhausted.
