Sorry it took so long for me to update, I was a little stuck on this chapter


"How long have we been watching this show San?" Rachel asks stretching

"Well we just finished watching "Angel" so about seven hours give or take" Santana says standing and stretching as well

"Oh geeze I can't remember the last time I engaged in such a marathon, it has been years" Rachel says standing up as well

"Oh shit Rach it's after eleven your dads are going to kill me"

"Nah they won't kill you, maim you maybe but not kill, not after last time it took them forever to throw the suspicion off of themselves"

"Last time? LAST TIME? You better be kidding Toto, I'm too young and pretty to die or be maimed, please please tell me I'm not going to be murdered by the Berrymen" Santana says looking frightened, but with a strange glint in her eyes

"Is Santana Fucking Lopez afraid of my fathers? Now that is a strange fear to have, I mean my fathers are rather kind and loving they would never do anything to harm anyone I swear." Rachel says with her best innocent look, not like she practiced it or anything

Santana starts looking out of the window nonchalantly searching for faces peeking in.

"Oh god, Santana you are ridiculous" Rachel says after finally catching her breath from laughing

"Dad is a lawyer and Daddy is a doctor, both rather upstanding positions they would never do something to jeopardize that" Rachel says still chuckling

"Berry you are soo not funny and just a bit evil" Santana says frowning and crossing her arms in front of her self

"Awww San don't be mad I was just joking, ya know Ha Ha funny?"

Santana keeps the hurt act up walking across the room to grab some shoes and a jacket

"C'mon lemme take you home it's late"

"Ok" Rachel says dejectedly

Oh man maybe I should tell her I'm not really mad she looks upset, aw hell

"Hey Toto, if ya don't have anything to do tomorrow would you like to I don't know hang out again? We could do something that doesn't involve sitting on a couch for seven hours, I mean this is Lima so there isn't really much to do but I think we could figure something out I mean that is if you want to. If you don't I would completely understand…"

"Whoa Santana calm down I think you have been hanging out with me too much, what with all the rambling you have been doing the past several hours."

"I would love to hang out again, and I wouldn't mind continuing this marathon, you were right about this show it is pretty good" Rachel says smiling

"See you should never doubt me for I am the Great Santana Lopez" Santana says striking a superhero pose

"Well Oh Great Santana I do think I should be getting home, it's late I can walk it isn't that far"

"No no no, not happening it is way too late and you are way too tiny to be walking home alone in the dark, lemme go get my shoes and we can go" Santana says staring at Rachel sternly and slightly worried that she might actually try to walk home

I better move fast or that little midget might start off for home, can't believe that she thinks that I would let her walk home, sheesh I'm not Puck

"Aww San you are so chivalrous" Rachel says fanning herself teasingly

"Shut it shorty, my mother would kill me if she ever found out I let a guest walk home at eleven at night s'all" Santana says as she pulls on some shoes

" Toto, gots to get my beauty sleep on"

"And a fabulous speller, you should add that to your resume, I think that it is a highly sought after quality and you should advertise that" Rachel says smirking as she walks through the door ahead of her companion

"Yea yea yea whatever you say"

The two girls get settled in Santana's car, Santana fiddling with her iPod hoping to find something to listen to for the ride

"Ah here we go I think this works" Santana says hitting the play button and putting the car into reverse

This is my December

This is my time of the year

This is my December

This is all so clear

This is my December

This is my snow covered home

This is my December

This is me alone

And I

Just wish that I didn't feel

Like there was something I missed

And I

Take back all the things that I said

To make you feel like that

And I

Just wish that I didn't feel

Like there was something I missed

And I

Take back all the things that I said to you

And I'd give it all away

Just to have somewhere

To go to

Give it all away

To have someone

To come home to

This is my December

These are my snow covered trees

This is me pretending

This is all I need

And I

Just wish that I didn't feel

Like there was something I missed

And I

Take back all the things that I said

To make you feel like that

And I

Just wish that I didn't feel

Like there was something I missed

And I

Take back all the things I said to you

And I give it all away

Just to have

Somewhere to go to

Give it all away

To have someone

To come home to

This is my December

This is my time of the year

This is my December

This is all so clear

Give it all away

Just to have somewhere

To go to

Give it all away

To have someone

To come home to

Give it all away

Just to have somewhere

To go to

Give it all away

To have someone

To come home to

Both girls are silent while the first song plays

"I don't think I have heard that song before what was it?" Rachel asks turning towards Santana

"You listen to Sublime but don't know Linkin Park?" Santana looks at Rachel incredulously

"I have heard some of their songs but I have never heard that one before, it's less screaming and more emotional I guess"

"That's why it is one of my favorites; it's one of those songs that can just hit you"

"I get that, there are some songs that can just speak to you, I know that music has always been my escape, especially when things were exceptionally bad at school, I would just go home and blast something loud and angry so that I could get those emotions out in a constructive way so that I wouldn't implode"

"Rachel I know I said it earlier, but I am so sorry for everything we put you through, we or more so I, was an idiot I did things that I regret and am ashamed of the way I acted towards you" Santana says turning to look at Rachel while the light was red

"San…" HONK HONK

"Oh what the damn hell? Who the crap is out this late? Impatient jerk face, fine calm yo tits I'm moving I'm moving" Santana says angrily

"Here we are casa de Berry, I'm glad you came after me this afternoon Toto it was more that I could have hoped for ya know, so thanks for that Rach" Santana says sincerely

"Santana I'm glad I went after you, tonight was fun" Rachel says giving Santana a look that she couldn't quite decipher

"I guess I'll see you around Rach" Santana says as she turns her head to face the front of the car trying to keep her features schooled into a mask of stoicism not wanting Rachel to be able to read her emotions on her face

"San, I I'll see you" Rachel says sadly while reaching for the door hesitating a moment hoping that Santana will stop her

"Bye Santana" Rachel says quietly getting out of the car and shutting the door

"Adios mi todo" Santana says to an empty passenger seat, as she puts the car into reverse she finally lets the mask drop
