Thanks Di7fan and Pippa (babe :P)
Chapter 9: Finding Out
"Santana" Her mum calls as she walks through the front door of her house. Santana goes into the kitchen where her mum is "Take a seat" She sits and her mum places a folded over sheet of paper in front of her. She unfolds it, it's her letter of admission to NYADA
"Mum, I can explain…" Santana starts
"You can go." Maria tells her daughter
"Wait what?" Santana asks, shocked
"You can go to NYADA and you can act for the rest of your life if you want" Maria smiles
"What about dad?"
"He'll come around sooner or later."
"What made you change your mind?"
"Your, your Abuela heard about it somewhere and she came over to try and talk us out of it" Santanas face falls and she runs out the room and into her bedroom where she falls onto the bed sobbing. After a few minutes she feels someone stroking her hair. She looks up to tell her mum to go away and sees Brittany there
"Your mum called me" She explains "Why are you crying? I mean, she's letting you go to NYADA"
"Mi Abuela found out and that's the only reason I'm going" Santana says, sitting up
"That's a good thing"
"How is that a good thing?"
"It means she cares about you, that she knows you"
"No, what it means is that someone told her about this and that she should come over and fix it so she can get back into my life"
"But if she wants you in her life then surely she loves you again?"
"I don't know, I-I just, I feel like I can't trust her. I feel like if I let her in she'll just let me down and I don't think I can handle that." …
"Santana" Kurt calls out, Santana and Brittany are standing by their lockers, they turn around to face him as he walks up "I've just had the best idea"
"This should be good." Santana tells Brittany sarcastically, then she turns to Kurt "I have an idea as well. Stop letting mi Abuela stay in your house. Stop being on her side and stop telling her what to do in order to get me back!"
"Who told you?" Kurt asks
"I found out actually" Brittany says
"Look" Santana interrupts "You need to stop telling her what to do."
"We're not telling her what to do Santana, we come up with plans and say things in front of her so that she thinks of them herself. Like, we knew that she could probably talk sense into your parents so we talked about how they weren't letting you follow your dreams in front of her and she pretty much stormed out the house yelling. She really cares about you Santana."
"I'm just confused." Santana admits "I feel like half of me wants to believe you but the other half is telling me to walk away and never look back. But I know in my heart I'll never be able to do that."
"Have you told her any of this?" Kurt asks, Santana shakes her head "That's what I thought"
"I don't know how" Santana says quietly
"I do" Kurt tells her, Santana looks at him in interest "You know we have that night of neglect thing coming up right?" Santana nods "Except we don't have to do neglected artists…" another nod "Well I was thinking, we could get your Abuela in the audience and you could sing a song that sums up what your feeling"
"I won't be able to do that in just one song."
"Then don't, I already talked to Mr Schue" Santana opens her mouth to protest but he cuts her off "He doesn't know what's going on, he just knows that you need to tell someone something you can't say. It's what he created the club for; he can hardly deny you it. You have a ten minute slot. That should be time for about three songs."
"I'll probably just get the bits I need from a bunch of songs" The bell rings and Santana and Brittany walk in the direction away from him. He smiles to himself, things are finally working out.
…
"Wait what?" Rachel yells "What do you mean Santana gets ten minutes and the opening act? It's not fair!"
"You're acting like a four year old Rachel" Kurt tells her "Just let it go." Then he turns to the rest of the group "Do any of you care?" Various replies of no come from the group, he turns to Rachel "Let it go."
"Fine." She sighs and sits down
"So," Mr Schue starts "Let's talk about salt water taffy…"
...
Well that was a random ending... ANYWAY; What do you guys think should happen?
Quick warning: The next chapter is almost all song but its a mash up with bits from like fifteen different songs in it and then I needed Almas POV on it so...
