"Maybe we should stop." Santana hears Rachel voice but she doesn't stop. Instead she moves her hand down to Rachel's belt buckle. "Santana." Rachel hand covers Santana's fumbling hands.
"I'm sorry." Santana shake her hand loose from Rachel's. "I didn't mean to…sorry." Santana moves to lie next to her girlfriend on the bed. Rachel doesn't say anything. Rachel'ss putting her bra and t-shirt back on when Santana glances her way.
Rachel had met Santana at the train station like she promised and from there they came straight to Santana's apartment. Once the bags were dropped by the door, Santana pulled Rachel into the bedroom with her. They've been on the bed kissing and groping every since.
Usually Santana tries to keep it light. She won't grab or try to touch anything below the waist. But today for some reason she couldn't stop herself. All she wanted to do was feel Rachel and be with her. So when Rachel allowed Santana to grab her ass, she couldn't help but test the boundaries. But as soon as her hands went for her belt Rachel stopped Santana.
"Are you okay?" Santana can't help but to laugh that question.
"I probably just made you really uncomfortable and you are going to ask me if I'm okay?"Santana shakes her head. "Don't you think I should be asking you that?"
Rachel frowns. "You didn't make me uncomfortable." Santana just gives her a knowing look. "I mean… I was just caught off guard. I didn't think we would be getting so carried away. You just got back and we haven't really even talked."
"Right." A sigh escapes Santana as she sits up in bed, grabbing her t-shirt and putting it back on, forgoing a bra for right now. Santana leaves Rachel in the bedroom, going to grab her suitcase from the living room. When she comes back into the room Rachel is still sitting on the bed, but now she has her phone out.
"Um…" Rachel is watching Santana take her clothes out of the suitcase. "Do you want to just hangout later?"
Santana looks away from the clothes that had just been pulled out and frowns. "What?"
Rachel's chews on her bottom lip. "Maybe I should leave and let you unpack. We can hang out later or something."
Santana rolls her eyes. "Why? I thought you said I didn't make you uncomfortable." Santana assumes that's why she's acting so worried.
"That…you touching me didn't make me uncomfortable. I trust you."Santana heart starts to pound when she says that. "I just…you've been acting weird though and I don't think you're ready to talk about it. I'm trying to give you space right now. So I think I should leave and we can hang out later."
Santana stays quiet as she walks over to her dresser and puts some clean shirts and underwear away. "You're right." Santana starts as she shuts the dresser and turns around and leans on it. "I'm not ready to talk but I don't want you to leave either."
Rachel smiles. "Okay. Wanna watch a movie and cuddle."
Santana laughs. "Sure."
Hours later, Santana fines herself in a haze. Mercedes and Brittany talked her and Rachel into going to a party with them. Santana smoked a joint when Rachel left her apartment to go get dressed and invited Quinn and Puck to the party as well.
Of course Rachel was pissed when Santana showed up to the agreed meeting place with heavy eyes. Rachel didn't speak to her until Mercedes agreed that Santana was an idiot and asked Rachel to try to have fun and be mad at Santana later.
"I don't know how that girl deals with you." Mercedes shakes her head as she sits outside with Santana. Santana high is gone and now she's just feeling tired. They've just spent hours dancing and joking around. Rachel is still inside with Brittany, Quinn and Puck. Santana said she needed fresh air and Mercedes agreed to join her for a short break.
"The same way you do." Santana smirks.
Mercedes smiles and shakes her head. "Ready to go back inside?" Mercedes thought they would only be outside for a couple of minutes but it's been more like ten now and she's ready to go flirt some more with some guy she met in one of her classes last quarter.
"Yea." They go back inside and Brittany spots them first and pulls Mercedes into their dancing circle. Santana laughs and moves to stand behind Rachel. "Having fun?" Santana rest her chin on Rachel's shoulder, arms going around the shorter girl's waist.
"I am." Rachel smiles. "Are you okay?"
"Mmmm…"Santana kisses Rachel ear. "Can we go somewhere alone?"
"What?" Rachel turns around in Santana arms.
Santana pulls Rachel against her. "I want you to myself. Come home with me?" Santana whispers against Rachel's lips.
Rachel gets caught up in Santana's eyes. "Okay." She breathes out.
