Welcome To You and Me

Ch. 9: Picture Perfect


The rest of the night went by without a hitch.

I glanced over at Brittany, but she was focused on watching the episode playing on the TV with the rest of our friends.

Then I looked back down at our linked pinkies.

She didn't show any signs of acknowledgement about it.

Maybe it was just... a thing... that Brittany did.

I don't know.

Neither of us said anything about it and so, I let it be and didn't think anything else of it.

Once it hit around 11:30PM everyone decided to call it a night and we all got up to get home.

Dani, with her perfect timing, managed to text me right as I was saying bye to Brittany as the rest of the group slowly made their way outside.

"PICTURE"

That's all it said in the message. I scoffed and and shook my head.

"Hey Brittany,"

"Yeah?"

"Mind taking a picture with me?"

A grin overtook her features.

"Of course,"

"My friend... one of my best friends actually, wants to see how you look like," I explained with a sheepish smile.

"You don't have to make up an excuse just to get a picture with me, Santana," A glint of amusement was in her eyes as she ran a hand through her blonde hair.

"Don't get too full of yourself now," I laughed as I put my phone on camera mode and angled it in front of us.

The mirror image showed on the screen and we both smiled.

Right before I snapped the shot, Brittany quickly wrapped an arm around my waist and practically squished the side of her face to mine.

"Hey!" I yelped out in surprise, just as the shutter noise went off.

"Sorry, I just had to," She giggled in response.

I pulled up the picture and couldn't help but laugh out loud again. It displayed my eyebrows raised up and my brown eyes wide in surprise as well as my mouth slightly open, but you could tell I was still in the process of smiling. Next to me, Brittany's face was scrunched up with a lopsided smile to the right, her blue eyes squinting at the phone. Our cheeks were pressed up together.

It looked like one of those pictures you took as a kid with your best friend.

Needless to say, it was a pretty good candid.

I still looked damn hot.

"Well, I know what I'm putting as your contact picture on my phone now," I told her after a few seconds passed.

"You have my number?" She asked me with an inquisitive stare.

"No, which is why you're gonna give it to me... right now," I replied back with a smirk.

"Smooth," Brittany lightly shoved me with her shoulder and a short laugh.

"What can I say? It's how I get all the ladies," I continued on with a nonchalant shrug.

"Sure," She rolled her eyes at me "Here, we'll take a nice one for your friend, okay?"

"I was just gonna send her this one,"

"No, I want a nicer one," Brittany stated. I was gonna protest, but there was something in her eyes that told me not to.

"Fine, fine," I relented... again.

I set up my phone one more time to camera mode and extended my arm out to angle it towards us.

Brittany tilted her head a little so our faces were close together, this time she placed her arm around my shoulder as well.

We both smiled and I took the shot.

I pulled it up on the screen so we could look at it.

"Cute," She said and I agreed with her.

"Happy now?" I joked with a smile.

"I'm always happy," She replied back easily. I looked a the picture again and noticed something... or rather... someone in the background.

"Puck, you ass," I said out loud.

"I made your photo even better in my opinion," Puck retorted back and chuckled as he breezed past us out the door.

Yeah, Puck photobombed our picture in the upper left hand side, but I could easily crop him out. He threw up some lame gang signs and a stupid face.

His face was always stupid though.

"Yeah, okay," I deadpanned with narrowed eyes. Puck gave me two thumbs up and slipped into his car.

"Well, I should get going, Rachel's been waiting," Brittany caught my attention and I realized that we were the last people there.

"Oh... yeah, yeah! Sorry about that," I blinked a few times and put my phone back in my pocket.

"No worries, I'll see you later Santana," She told me before a quick hug and walked over to her car where Rachel waved at me.

"G'night!" I called out before Brittany got into her car, she flashed me a smile and a nod.

Then she was gone, and I made my way to my car.

I sighed when I sat inside and pulled out my phone again.

I sent Dani both pictures through a text and couldn't stop the grin that spread on my face as I looked at them again.

I went to my contacts and saw that Brittany put in her name as "Brittany 'Always Happy' S. Pierce" with a rainbow emoji.

She already set her picture as the first photo we took earlier.


A/N: I'm sorry, I pretty much died when the Brittana scenes came up in the 100 and 101 episodes and I didn't know what to do with myself.

Damn, Heather... that kiss tho... wow. Can you kiss me like that? Cool

Anyway, I've been out and about a lot lately and now my spring break is coming to a close.
Also, I ended up getting a little sick so now I'm stuck at home... good news though, I have time to write.

Hope you enjoyed.
