She's Worth It ch. 10
The day after Santana told off my dance instructor Cassandra July, she was acting well more like a instructor than a cold hearted, vindictive harpy with a vendetta against me as she no longer picks on me although she still make the class difficult. In the end I know that it will beneficial for my career as learning choreography is a large part of being a Broadway musical as much as learning the songs but I could do without the board line on harassment and insult on my character to do it. I know that I am going to make as I'm starring in an off-Broadway musical which I'm excited for because I'm taking my first step in the right direction as I finish off my last class for the day, heading home where my girls are waiting for me. Warmth fills me thinking about my girls as I know they're there and Santana is actually done well after almost a month of living with Quinn and myself as she's reunited with her former band mates and writing her own songs.
She even managed to find employment at this small diner not too far from the apartment, stating that she wants to contribute to the finances even though I told her that it wasn't necessary but she argued that she wasn't going to mooch off us and wants to pull her own weight. I wanted to argue that she wasn't mooching off us but I knew that the argument was futile and I could tell that she was determined to do so I backed off as the Latina went out to search for employment. The hours were consistent and the pay was decent although the jazz singer was tired by the end of her shift while grumbling about the ridiculous of all the costumers that she have to serve on a daily basis. I walk home without Kurt today because he has another class that he has to finish before heading home as I take the scenic route home, listening to the hustle and bustle of New York City as it's everything that I had imagined it to be and more.
I knew from a young age that I was meant for more than the little small-minded trappings of Lima, Ohio as my dreams were bigger than the entire state as I dreamt of the bright lights and applause of the stage. I practice every single day, singing and dancing while helping my fellow Glee Club members win Nationals two years in a row as that was no easy feat but it was doable although they didn't make it easy to accomplish. I grab two small cups of coffee and pastries for myself and the writer because I knew that she doesn't have any class today so it'll be easy to find her on the couch, playing vide games. After collecting my order, I couldn't help feeling like I'm being followed as I look over my shoulder to see if it was true but it doesn't seem to be as everyone around me was going about their business although I couldn't shake the feeling.
I begin walking again when someone calls out to be, turning to see Brody Weston lightly jogging towards me with pearly white smile on his face as the upperclassman is also in my dance class with Cassandra July. He was my first friend that I made when I came to NYADA as I thought that he was very handsome, meeting him in the communal showers in the middle of my nightly moisturizing session. Like me, Brody was very dedicated to making sure that his skin was taken care of although Kurt thought that he might have been gay but seeing how he is with the ladies, I knew that it wasn't true. At one point, I considered dating the upperclassman but by then I had met Quinn and I rid myself of the foolish thought as the two of us are better off as friends but it doesn't stop him from jokingly flirting with me. I know that my girlfriend doesn't appreciate it, saying that she doesn't trust him as there's something shady about Brody that she can't put her finger on but I think that it's just she's jealous and she has nothing to worry about.
We're just friends and the upperclassman only flirts with me because he knows that it gets under the writer's skin as I know that he's a good guy, priding myself on being an excellent judge of character.
"Hello Brody, I didn't see you in class"
"Yeah, I had to take care of something so I couldn't make it" Brody chuckles, rubbing the back of his neck. "July's gonna chew my ass out tomorrow for it"
"Good luck with that but I didn't know that you were into photography" I said gesturing to the camera hanging around his neck.
"Oh yeah, I'm been taking pictures since I was a little kid. I like it almost as much as I like singing" Brody said smiling. "Check this out"
He taps a few buttons on the camera before showing me the tiny size on the back, slowing flicking between photos of the city and its residence as I'm honestly impressed with amazing angles and shots that were taken from. I like learning little things about my friends and I'm grateful that Brody was willing to share this part of himself with me as he tells me that his mother was always working a lot growing up but gave him his first camera so he would go out, clicking away.
"So how's the missus?" Brody asked curious.
"Quinn's fine. I just wish that the two were get along, I know that you would be fantastic friends if given the chance"
"I don't think that's gonna happen as she knows about my huge crush on you and sees me as competition for your attention" Brody chuckles.
"And when you say things like that, she makes her wary of you" I said rolling my eyes.
"Maybe, maybe not but I don't see her changing her opinion of me any time soon. As long as you like me then that's good enough as this is where I must leave you" Brody said giving me a one-armed hug.
"I'll see you in class tomorrow" I said as he walks in the opposite direction.
I walk inside, taking the elevator the rest of the way before walking through the front to find Quinn laying on the couch with a book in her hands and her reading glasses perched on her nose, looking incredibly sexy right now. I shed my coat on one of the hooks by the door before walking around the couch, setting the coffee and pastries on the coffee table as I crawl up the length of the badass' body, laying on top of her without preamble as she grunts at the sudden weight on her. She looks up from her book, raising an thin eyebrow at me before wrapping an arm around my waist, returning to her literature.
"I hope one of those coffees is mine"
"Of course, hot chocolate with cinnamon and extra whip cream" I said knowing her like the back of my hand.
"I love you" Quinn said kissing the top of my head.
"You're so easy to please" I said rolling my eyes.
"Yes, because being difficult and demanding is your job" Quinn giggles.
"And just for that, I'm giving your drink to Santana when she comes home" I huff out.
"Come on babe, don't do that. You know that I was just kidding" Quinn whines.
"Sure you was and lucky for you, I'm feeling gracious today" I said handing her the drink.
"Thank you, you're very gracious" Quinn said taking a sip.
"Darn right I am"
"So how was class today? July gave you any trouble?" Quinn asked raising an eyebrow.
"No, she hasn't. I think that after the confrontation that she had with Santana was enough to leave me alone and if that wasn't enough, I think when the both of you confronted last week was more than enough to scar her for life"
"The woman is quick on the uptake because neither of us were gonna let her rip into her like that because there's a thin line between trying to make your students stronger and harassment. I wasn't about to let her talk down to you because she's feeling like she can get away with it"
"Thank you baby for standing up for me but you can't always fight my battles for me" I said kissing her nose.
"I know but I'll fight like hell in the one that I can because I love you" Quinn said pecking me on the lips.
I love how protective Quinn is, wishing that I had someone like her when I was in high school because none of the people that I dated felt the need to protect like she does as they tore into me along with the others. I know that I'm traditionally beautiful like some girls but the writer often tells me that I'm more of a exotic beauty, making me a rare find and the others were idiots to have allowed me to slip through their fingers. When I'm with the badass, I truly feel beautiful and I want her to always be by side because I know that I will be able to accomplish all of my goals as she's my cheerleader, pushing me to work hard even helping me practice my lines.
"I love you" I said kissing her on the lips.
"I love you to the moon and back" Quinn mutters against my lips.
The book was quickly discarded on the floor as her fingers slides into my hair while our lips move in sync, my fingers slips under Quinn's t-shirt, feeling the delicious abs underneath. Before things could too heated, the writer's phone rings out as she groans at the interruption as she looks at the caller ID to see that's but I don't care, locking onto her pulse point while she tries to talk to Blaine about something. The badass quickly get off of the phone with the gel haired boy as her hands find my backside kneading and massaging, making my hips jump against her as my lips finds her once more. We were getting so hot and heavy that neither one of us hears the door opening and closing until a gasp is heard, looking up to see Santana looking at us with a shocked look but there's a underlining snippet of desire behind it.
"Y-You're home early" I said pushing myself upright.
"Actually my shift ended twenty minutes ago but don't stop on my count. I could always use a free show after a long shift" Santana said smirking.
"Participation is the half of it and audience participation is greatly appreciated" Quinn said wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.
"In your dreams, Fabray" Santana said rolling her eyes. "I'm gonna take a shower"
"I'm going to order takeout, any preferences?" I call out.
"Whatever is fine with me"
"Your libido couldn't be anymore subtle" I said looking at her.
"I don't hear you complaining" Quinn said bucking her hip upwards.
"So not the point. I do want Santana as much as you do but I don't want her thinking that it's purely about sex with us, ya know" I said running my hand through my hair.
"I get it, babe I do but I don't know how much I can take dancing our feelings for her. I don't want to pressure into thinking that she has to be with us because she just got out of a bad relationship and she's finally doing well with her band" Quinn said propping herself on her elbows.
"Yeah, I want to tell her but there's no telling how she'll react and I don't want to spring it on out of the blue. Maybe we should see wait a little longer before talking to her about this"
"And if she doesn't want to be with us?" Quinn asked raising an eyebrow.
"We're still her friends and nothing will change that. We're gonna be there for her no matter regardless if we're in a romantic relationship or not" I said smiling.
"No doubt" Quinn said pecking me on the lips. "Now, I need a cold shower"
