Behind the Glee

Season 3

Mash Off

Brittany awoke to the light that came through her curtains. She rubbed her eyes before running over the spot that was empty in her bed. "Santana?" There was no response as she got up rubbing her eyes. She swung her feet over her bed as she saw a sticky note attached to her lampshade.

Britt,

Sorry I had to leave. I had to get home before my parents got up and I didn't want to have to explain to them why I was not here in the morning. Please forgive me. I will see you at school. Don't forget to campaign today. I left the vote for Brittany balloons in your locker so you can blow them up after first period. Thank you for last night.

I love you

Santana

p.s. I left lucky charms out for you for breakfast. I know that you love the marshmallows.

Brittany smiled at the note that Santana left her. She always knew what to do and say to make her feel so grateful. Brittany got up and headed towards her bathroom for a shower.

William McKinley High School

Santana was walking down the hallway as she heard people chanting. She turned the corner to see Brittany standing above students who held VOTE FOR BRITTANY balloons. "Listen up, I also heard that Rachel is still on MySpace which makes her unfit to run." People gasped as Brittany nodded. Brittany looked up and met Santana's eyes. It was the first time that her eyes had met since last night. Brittany immediately beamed and stepped down from her place making her way between the potential voters to stand in front of Santana. "Hi."

"I see you found the balloons." Brittany nodded, "Thanks to a certain someone." Santana nodded and looked quickly at the ground before she looked back at Brittany, "I'm sorry I left. I just am not ready to tell my parents about us and I know for a fact I couldn't explain this hickey," Santana pulled her cheerios uniform down a little by the neck to show a purple mark that laid out where her neck met her upper body. Brittany smiled, "Britt, I'm not ready to tell anyone." Brittany looked a little bummed at first but quickly nodded her head, "I understand that."

"I just didn't want you to think that I'm running out on you because I don't want to be with you. I do. I just am not ready to share that with everyone." Brittany nodded at her. Brittany way about to say something before both their phones buzzed. Santana was the first to read it. "It's from Shelby she wants us to meet in the auditorium to go over songs for sectionals."

After You and I Performance. Geometry class

Santana was in deep thought as she was reading over the assignment that Shelby handed out to the class. She got bored as she looked up at the clock. Fifteen minutes to go before the bell rang. She was bummed because Shelby had moved the kids after their last test and she now sat behind Brittany. At least she got to sit close to her. Mike sat to her right with Blaine in front of him they both looked like they were deep into their studies. Puck sat behind Mike and she was busy staring at Shelby and playing around with a miniature pumpkin. This was her favorite class because she had all her friends and her girlfriend. Santana started to stare at Brittany it started at her neck where quick flashes of last night began to work their way back into her memory. The way she kissed her. The way her soft vanilla skin touched her own. Her eyes made their way down to her cheerio skirt. The way that is was strung out on the chair she could almost see her spanks. As she was spacing out on Brittany she didn't notice that Brittany had turned her head to look back and see Santana staring at her. Brittany grinned and turned her head back around. She quickly ripped out a piece of paper from her binder and wrote down something. She checked really quick to see if Shelby was paying attention before she turned around and through the note at Santana. Santana was snapped back into reality when the ball of paper hit her in the face. She dropped her jaw as she looked at Brittany who giggled and made a read the letter motion before turning back around. Santana smiled and opened the letter.

You're staring at me. What am I going to do with you?

Santana smiled and bit the edge of her pen. She scribbled something else down and was about the throw it back to Brittany when the bell rang. Brittany was quick to get up. Santana quickly slipper her papers in her binder before hopping over to Brittany putting her hand on Brittany's left shoulder so she could lean in and whisper, "Meet me in the janitor's closet." Brittany watched as Santana stepped in front of her and smirked and winked at her before disappearing outside the class. Brittany was close behind.

Brittany took off only a couple of steps behind Santana in the crowded hallway. Santana disappeared into the janitors closest with Brittany hot on her heals. Brittany opened the door and quickly closed it behind her. When she turned around Santana had attacked her lips pressing her against the previously closed-door. Brittany smiled into the kiss as she dropped her binder and put her hands on Santana's lower back. They quickly made their way down Santana's cheerio skirt and back up so her hands were over Santana's spanks. "Mmm…so is this a solution…of what you wanted…to do?" Santana said between kisses. Brittany smiled more and nodded.

5 minutes later the girls broke apart. Santana smoothed out her uniform and re adjusted her high pony. She waited for Brittany to do the same. Santana peeked out the door for the ghost to be clear before quickly shutting the door and spinning around to give Brittany one last kiss. She then picked up her binder, "Come on will be late to class." Brittany smirked and followed Santana out of the closet.

Santana felt like she had landed on cloud nine. She knew that her cheeks were still a little red from the heavy make out session, but she didn't care. They walked down the hallway with their binders in arms. Santana spotted Finn and Rory walking towards them and couldn't help herself, "Hey there Orca." She pushed her way between the boys as Brittany shot her a come on look. "Hey Santana! You look like an ass less J Lo." Santana stopped and couldn't help but turn around a laugh. Brittany just thought that Finn should have never said anything. Here comes a battle. "You're skinny like all the crops filled on your family's farm."

"That is the lamest thing that I didn't understand a word of." Brittany rubbed her face and looked at Santana, "Not one word." Santana stepped forward "Is that really all that you can come up with? You seriously think that you can out insult me? I'm from Lima Heights I was raised on insults. It's how my Abuela put me to sleep at night and she is not a nice lady. Did you know that she tried to sell me once? And it wasn't until I got to kindergarten that I learned that my name wasn't garbage face." Santana looked to the ground a little bit ashamed that she mentioned that much about herself. Finn spoke up, "Then were going to have to settle this another way," He looked to the floor before speaking up, "Uh…today after school bring your trouble tones." Santana smiled and looked at Brittany with pride before looking back to Finn. She knew exactly where this was going. "Are you suggesting what I think you are?"

"Yea I am…dodge ball." Finn leaned in to Santana and she leaned in to get in his face. "Bring it." she then turned and walked away Brittany in tow.

After Dodge ball Game.

Santana, Brittany, Sugar and Mercedes walked out of the gym with the other trouble tones. "We owned that!" Santana yelled as the other girls joined in proudly. Brittany had her head down. Mercedes rolled her eyes and threw her towel over her shoulder taking off down the hall with her duffel bag. Brittany looked at Santana who was celebrating with her teammates and dancing. Brittany slung her duffel bag onto her shoulder and followed Mercedes. Santana saw Brittany walking down the hall. She picked up her things and walked after Brittany. The gym door opened as New directions members poured out. She bumped into Finn and gave him a look before catching Brittany down the hall. She tugged at her arm making her turn around, "Santana what you did in their was not ok. Rory lives with me and he's my friend."

"What all we did was throw harmless rubber balls at him. If he's going to live here he has to get used to some good ol' American dodge ball game." Brittany rolled her eyes, "Santana, this is more than just winning against Finn. You're starting to take this way to far." Rory walked up behind Santana with a Kurt holding a towel to his still bleeding nose. "Take him home, put ice on it so it doesn't swell." Brittany nodded as Rory walked over to her. She put an arm around him and started to walk off down the hall. Santana had her arms crossed, "Brittany…"She was cut off by Brittany, "I'll talk to you later." Santana was left their with her arms crossed watching Brittany walk away.

Day of the Mash off Part One

Santana was walking down the hall to the auditorium. She texted and called Brittany all night but had not heard anything in response. She felt horrible and just wanted to talk to Brittany. Her recent encounter with Finn left her extremely upset. Did Brittany love me back? She said she did. If she loved her she would have at least texted her or something last night. Instead she was with Irish all night. Santana hugged herself and proceeded to the auditorium. When she turned the corner she saw Brittany talking to Mercedes. Santana stopped in her tracks and looked at Brittany. Brittany looked over to see Santana standing there. Mercedes said something to her and then disappearing into the auditorium. Brittany walked up to Santana with her hands behind her back. Santana looked at the ground. "Hey." Brittany said almost in a whisper. "Hi."

"Look, I'm really sorry I didn't get back to you. My parents kind of freaked about what happened to Rory so I had to deal with it all night." Santana just nodded, "Are you still mad at me?" Brittany looked at the ground and then directly into her favorite brown eyes, "I can't stay mad at you." Brittany help her pinky up for Santana to gladly receive. Santana smiled as they walked into the auditorium, "Hey wanna see me do a handstand?" Before Santana could answer Brittany jumped off the stage and climbed up on the wall.

Before Presidential Speeches

"You know you can always back out." Santana said she looked at a nervous Brittany. "Are you kidding? I wrote this," Brittany pointed to the crumbles papers in her hand. "it is going to be better than any other speech out their. I'm really excited about it." Brittany said with a toothy grin. Santana giggled and moved her foot on the ground. "Students please take you seats." They heard Figgins speak into the microphone. Santana leaned into Brittany's ear, "Good luck, I love you." Brittany grinned and watch Santana walk over to sit with all the other cheerleaders.

Next day…Mash off Part Two

Santana met up with Brittany in the hall right before lunch like she always did. They made their way to the cafeteria before Santana started speaking about insulting Finn again, "I think you need to stop making fun of Finn. You're being really harsh." Santana scrunched her face, "Manatee's have really thick skin." Brittany shrugged as Becky ran up to the girls, "Santana Coach Sue needs you in her office right away." Santana looked to Brittany. "OK." Brittany just looked at Santana with confusion. They needed to get ready for their mash off. "I'll see you back stage I'll get your dress ready." Santana nodded as she made her way to Sue's office.

After Sue's confrontation

Mr. Schue came back stage and whispered something to Shelby. Brittany sat at the dressing mirror getting ready. When Brittany saw My. Schue she immediately thought something had happened to Santana. She saw Shelby and Mr. Schue look at her quickly and then go back to talking. She put down her makeup and then looked back up. She saw Santana walk in between the two teachers. They stared at her for a couple of seconds before making their way off stage. Santana walked over and sat down applying makeup. Brittany shifted in her seat to look at Santana. Her cheeks were stained with tears, "Have you been crying?" No answer. "Santana what's wrong?" Brittany tried to put a hand on Santana's thigh but she quickly darted up, "Everyone's going to know."

"Know what? What are you talking about."

"This is all Finn's fault." Santana stared at herself in the mirror never looking at Brittany. "Santana what is going on?" Santana finally looked at Brittany. "Finn accused me in the hallway that I should just come out of the closest. Someone over heard him and told their dad who made a commercial against Sue who pegged me a lesbian. It's going to air." Brittany put hands over her mouth. "Places girls!" Mercedes said back stage as everyone gathered. "Santana…Santana?" Mercedes said as Santana walked right by the group and to her spot. Brittany got up and moved next to Mercedes, "What's wrong with her?" Brittany just looked down with watery eyes. The lights came on and the music started to their mash off.

After the SLAP…

Brittany stood onstage with her hands covering her mouth. Santana froze for a couple of seconds with everyone from New Directions staring at her in utter shock. Santana then proceeded to take off. She sprinted up the steps, "Santana!" Will called after her and tried to catch up. Brittany took her heels off quickly and jogged down the stairs and ran out after her. "Santana!" As both girls exited the auditorium everyone looked around at each other not knowing what to do. It had been a mash off to remember that was for sure.
