Behind the Glee
Season 3
Hold on to Sixteen
Brittany was walking down the hall with her binder in her hands when she walked by Quinn and Rachel talking. She crossed across the hall to see Santana inside her locker. She walked up just as Santana closed her locker. "Oh hey."
"Hey there."
"What are you doing?"
"I was just putting away some of the sheet music that Shelby gave us."
"Oh…"
"What?"
"Nothing just sectional's is coming up.""And?"
"Nothing forget it." Santana looked at Brittany questionably. "So are you coming over tonight so we can go over choreography I still need help."
"Yea sure." Santana smiled causing a chain reaction to Brittany's face. The bell rang as kids broke from the halls and continued their journey to class. Brittany leaned in to kiss Santana as Santana pulled back a little. She smiled in satisfaction of teasing Brittany before she saw Brittany pout and decided to lean back in and kiss her girlfriend. She smiled into the kiss as Brittany kissed her two more times before turning to walk away to her class. "See you at glee!" Brittany skipped off down the hall.
After Sam Evans Returns
Sam walked down the hallway with a huge smile on his face. He had missed this place terribly. The sound of teenagers yelling and laughing. The smell of B.O. from jocks and cheerios perfume. He put his hands in his jacket pocket before turning the corner bumping into a blonde knocking her binder out of her hand. "Oh geez, I'm," Brittany scooped up her binder and looked up at the Sam, "Sam!" Brittany quickly pulled Sam into a tight hug and stepped away smiling at him. "What are you doing here?"
"Rachel and Finn brought me back for sectional's. And I'm also living with Finn until the end of the year."
"Does this mean you're staying here for the rest of the year?" Sam nodded as Brittany grinned wider. "Yay!"
"So how have you been?"
"I've been good a lot has been going on around here."
"Yea I heard. I also heard your dating someone new."
"Yes."
"Well come on tell me." Sam smiled anticipating an answer. "Santana and I have dated for about a month now." She said with a very proud smile. "That's great."
"Yea it is actually I'm on my way to meet her now so I have to go, but it was really nice seeing you again Sam." She pulled him into another hug, "I will see you at sectionals rival." Sam nodded as Brittany walked off. "Wait…rivals?"
Brittany turned the corner and saw Santana at her locker. She was plugged into her iPod and mouthing the lyrics to their song for sectionals. Brittany smiled as she walked up behind her girlfriend. "Santana." No answer. She tapped on her shoulder as she turned around and smiled, "Oh hey." Santana took out her earphones and looked at Brittany. "Sorry I was trying to get these lyrics down."
"Guess who I just bumped into." Santana crossed her arms, "Who?"
"Sam. He's back to help New Directions compete.""Trouty Mouth?" Brittany nodded as Santana crossed her arms. A small evil smirk appeared on her face. She put her iPod in her locker reaching for something and pulled out small red book before closing her locker and walking down the hall. "Where are you going?"
"To deliver a welcome back message." Santana smirked widened as she picked up her pace leaving a confused Brittany behind.
Later that day…
Santana was pacing back and forth in her room singing her lyrics to Survivor. Her back was facing the door so she didn't see Brittany leaning on the door frame staring at her. Brittany was smitten over Santana and when ever she opened her mouth and sung she couldn't help but smile. She finally decided to knock on the door frame. Santana heard the knock and turned around seeing Brittany smiling at her. "Hey. How long have you been watching me?"
"Long enough." Santana walked over and pecked Brittany on the lips. "Going over your parts?"
"Yea theirs a note that I'm trying to make perfect." Brittany nodded, "Well don't forget that you also need to dance." Santana laughed a little and turned to face Brittany, "That's why you're here."
"Ah, so you only want me for my amazing dance skills."
"No, I need you to help me because we are partners anyway and I don't want to look like a fool next to a talented hot blonde."
"Who happens to be dating you."
"Yes." Brittany leaned in and kissed Santana. "Britt, were not going to get anything done if we keep doing this." Brittany smiled as she pulled away from Santana, "Ok well get into first position." Santana did as she was told, "Ok let's go from I'm a Survivor."
"Ok." Santana raised her left hand to meet Brittany's right hand. Brittany gripped her hand and looked into Santana's eyes, "Santana you know you have to put your right hand on my waist right?" Santana smiled and laid her hand on Brittany's waist line, "Ok now you're going to take a step back starting with your right. I'm leading." Santana did as she was told still looking into Brittany's eyes, "Ok now drag your left foot back and take one more step back." Santana was doing well. "Good, see you got it. Now were going to go back the same way. Ready?"
"Yea." They did the same thing back. "Ok now stop drop your left hand from mine and grab the other side of my waist." Santana move her hand to lie on Brittany's left waistline. "Now hold onto me as I dip." Brittany dipper her head as Santana watched in amazement. She smiled as Brittany came back up. "Ok now let go of your right hand on me." Brittany then spun across Santana, "Now lean back and dip your head."
"You're crazy."
"What? That's the choreography." Brittany laughed, "I have my right hand on your lower back nothing is going to happen to you." Santana smiled as she dipped her head back and came back up. "See." Santana came back up with her face millimeters from Brittany's. Brittany smiled as she leaned in to close the gap and kissed Santana. They both smiled into the kiss. Brittany still had her right hand on the lower part of Santana's back. She moved her left to put in the same position. After five minutes of making out Santana broke the kiss, "We need to work."
"I thought we were." Santana smiled as Brittany leaned back in, "Britt…seriously sectionals is tomorrow."
"Ok ok." The rest of the night they went back to practicing. In some moments they would both steal kisses as the other reminded that they had a competition in the morning. Tomorrow was one for the books.
Side Stage Trouble Tones Performance
Santana was shaking out the last of her nerves as the other trouble tones were fixing their accessories or their hair. Brittany walked up next to Santana, "Don't be nervous. You have an amazing voice and confidence."
"I know I just really want to win." Santana rubbed her hands on the side of her dress. "We will be fine." Brittany kissed the side of Santana's head before the stage crew called for everyone to take their positions. The lights went dark as everyone walked out to the stage. As Santana started walking she felt someone grab her hand. When she turned to look she saw Brittany beaming at her. Brittany let go as soon as Santana neared her start spot. When she looked to Brittany, Brittany winked before taking her own spot. She looked down before she heard the music begin. Showtime.
After Performance
Santana got up as the lights went off and Brittany immediately swallowed her up a huge hug. They walked of stage together. "We did it!" Brittany jumped up and down on Santana's shoulder. "I know!" They hugged tightly and Brittany pulled away. "You got the dance down!""I had a good teacher." Brittany smiled and leaned in to kiss Santana before Sugar interrupted them, "Guy's we have to take our seats."
"Ok were coming." Santana said as she looked over to Sugar and then back to Brittany. "Let's go watch our friends ok?"
"OK." Santana said as Quinn came up to hug the both of them. "You girls were amazing out there."
"Thank you and good luck to you." Brittany said. "Thank you. Love you guys."
"We love you too." Santana said as she linked her arm between Brittany's and took off side stage with Brittany to take their seats.
After New Directions Performance
"Would the Glee groups please take the stage for the award ceremony." The loud-speaker sounded after New Directions left the stage. They Trouble Tones got out of their seats and walked up to the stage. "Wow who knew that tubbs and the pretty pony could sing so well." Brittany nodded in agreement. They stepped out of their own row from the audience and Brittany laced their fingers. They proceeded to walk up to the stage.
After Quinn Confronts Them in the Bathroom
"Ok can I be the first to say never going to happen."
"Santana…"
"What Brittany? Why would we surrender and go back to them. I am not living under two spotlight driven crazy primates." Brittany kept her mouth shut and Mercedes spoke up, "Santana look I know that we left in the beginning to gain stardom, but they agreed to a trouble tones number every competition. Something is defiantly better than nothing."
"Yea but" Santana was cut off by Mercedes, "Enough Santana, it is time for us to suck up our pride and just do this. I don't want to live the rest of my Senior year wondering what if." Santana crossed her arms and looked down with her fierceness. She turned to look at Brittany who shrugged, "She's right. I miss them." Santana looked down and then back up, "Fine."
"Yes!" Brittany said as she hugged Santana. Mercedes and Sugar smiled. "Ok ok let's go before I change my mind." They all smiled and walked out of the bathroom.
After We Are Young Performance
Santana stepped down from the steps with Rachel following her. Everyone was celebrating the comeback of the girls and talking about regional's. "Hey thank you for coming back."
"Welcome…I guess I missed it." Rachel smiled, "Don't tell anyone." Rachel made a motion to zip her lips, "It means a lot to Finn and to me." Santana looked up at her. "I know that we haven't always been the closest of friends, but you are still apart of this group Santana and I consider you a friend." Santana smiled a bit. "I know that we still have our differences, but I just want to say I think you voice is really awesome and you're a key member to helping us win. I cant wait to see your number at regional's."
"Thank you…and I guess you're pretty good too." Santana said as they both laughed. "I'm going to hug you now is that ok?" Santana nodded as they hugged quickly. Rachel smiled and walked away passing Brittany who was coming towards Santana, "Hey."
"Hi."
"Soooo…"
"What?"
"Are you happy?"
"I guess so." Brittany smiled and hugged Santana around her arms. "You know what this means?" Santana looked at Brittany, "What?"
"Were going to regional's!" Santana giggled at Brittany. Santana soaked in her surroundings of the perfect family she was surrounded in. Everyone was laughing and talking. Making jokes and hugging one another. It was the perfect environment and she felt honored to be apart of something amazing.
