Dani's POV:
The next morning when I woke up Santana was already out of bed. I got up and put some clothes on before making my way into their kitchen.
"Good morning Dani," Rachel greeted as I sat down at the kitchen table.
"Good morning Rachel. Have you seen Santana? I thought she had today off," I said confused as to where Santana was.
"Oh right. She wanted me to tell you that they called her in for a couple of hours, but she said that if you wanted to you could wait here until she gets back," she responded handing me a cup of coffee.
"Thanks Rachel," I said taking a sip from the coffee. "So do you have today off as well?"
"Yup I took today off. I have a date later tonight," she said a huge grin spreading across her face.
"Is it with that guy from the club last night?" I asked smiling at how excited the brunette was.
"Yeah that's the one. His name is Carter," she said unable to hide how much she liked the guy.
"Well I'm happy for you Rachel. I hope this all works out for you, you seem to really like him," I said finishing the last of my coffee.
"Aww thanks Dani. I'm happy Santana has someone like you in her life. She needed you," she said taking a seat across from me.
"What do you mean she needed me?" I asked curious by what she meant.
"Well, before you came along Santana still wasn't exactly happy. She was a lot better than she was in high school, but she always bottled everything up and she wouldn't let anyone in. She seemed really lonely, at least that's what it looked like to me," she explained just as the apartment doors swung open and Santana and Kurt came walking in.
"Hey baby," I said getting up and giving Santana a quick kiss. "How was work?"
"It sucked like always. I wish I could have stayed in bed with you," she pouted. I grabbed her hand and dragged her over to the couch.
"So I was thinking about the whole contract thing and I think I'm going to do it," I said searching her eyes trying to see what she was thinking.
"Alright baby. It doesn't matter to me what you decide, I'll support you in whatever you want to do," she said smiling back at me.
"Thanks San," I said giving her a kiss. "I'm going to go call that guy, I'll be right back," I said getting up from the couch and making my way into Santana's room. I dialed the number on the business card and after a couple of rings a woman answered the phone.
"Red Star Entertainment Jess speaking how can I help you?" the woman asked.
"Hi, my name is Dani Rhodes. Someone from your label gave me this number and he told me to call him with my decision about a contract. His name was Ryan Steele."
"Okay I'll put you through to Mr. Steele, one moment please," she said before the phone started to ring again.
"Hello Ryan speaking," I heard through the phone recognizing the voice immediately.
"Hi Ryan, this is Dani Rhodes, the girl from Jumpin' Java."
"Of course. How are you Dani? Have you made a decision?" he asked eagerly.
"I'm doing good and yes I've made a decision." I said trying to keep cool.
"And?" he said waiting for an answer.
"I would like to join your label," I said unable to suppress my excitement anymore.
"Great! I'm so happy to hear that Dani. I think you are going to love it here. When do you have some free time to come in for a meeting so we can make this official and talk about your future as an artist?"
"Well I'm free all day today if you would like me to come in today," I said eager to get started.
"Perfect. How about you swing by at around five o'clock and we can get down to business."
"That sounds great I'll see you then," I said ending the call. I walked back out and sat next to Santana snuggling into her side.
"How did it go?" she asked as I sat down.
"Great! I have a meeting with him at 5," I replied anxious for what was in store for me.
"Already?" she asked surprised.
"Yeah I can hardly believe it myself," I said looking up at her.
She leaned down and gave me a sweet kiss. "I'm so proud of you Dani," she said as we broke apart.
"Thanks San," I said moving as close to her as I possibly could. We stayed like this for a while content with just being with each other until it was time for me to go back to my apartment and get ready for my meeting. When I got into my apartment, I took a quick shower and grabbed my purse before hailing a taxi and heading down to the record label. When I walked in, I made my way up to the receptionist to find out where I was supposed to meet Ryan.
"Hey I'm…"
"Dani, right?" she cut me off looking me up and down.
"Um yeah," I said becoming a little uncomfortable with the way she was looking at me.
"Mr. Steele will see you in his office whenever you're ready," she said giving me a cocky smirk.
"Um where exactly is his office?" I asked trying to ignore her signals.
"Oh sweetie, here let me show you," she said leading me down the hallway and stopping in front of the door farthest down the hall. "There you go, see you when you get out," she said giving me a wink and heading back to her desk.
I knocked on the door and waited until I heard Ryan tell me to come in.
"Dani! It's good to see you again," he said standing up and shaking my hand. "Have a seat," he motioned to the chair on the opposite side of his desk. I sat down and waited for him to continue.
"So Dani here's the contract we have laid out. Take a look over it and sign here when you are done. Feel free to ask any questions, I'd be happy to answer them for you," he said sliding over the contract. I looked it over and I was pretty satisfied but I still had a few questions.
"Mr. Steele…"
"Please Dani, call me Ryan," he said before I could finish.
"Okay, Ryan. I just wanted to ask a few questions about how the whole recording process works here at your label. For instance am I going to be able to write my own music or are you going to hand me songs that have already been written," I finished hoping I could use my own material.
"Ah good question. Well, we do have a few songs already prepared for you, but we would be more than happy to hear your songs as well and if we think they are good enough, which I'm sure they are, we will definitely let you record them. At this point we have to attach ourselves to some bigger names just to get your name out there and recognized, but once we have gotten passed that point, you should be able to go about your music however you want," he responded.
"Ok good because writing is definitely an important part of who I am as an artist. I don't really want to steal other people's work, it just doesn't feel right to me," I said honestly.
"I completely understand Dani. Do you already have some songs written?" he asked intrigued.
"Yeah I have a bunch. I've been writing ever since I was twelve years old," I replied and he seemed to be surprised by this answer.
"Well then, the next time you have some free time, bring in a copy of your songs with the lyrics. You can get an audio recording of them right?"
"Yeah that should be no problem," I answered.
"Good, I can't wait to hear them. Now are there any more questions or are we all set to sign?" he asked motioning towards the contract.
"Nope I don't have any more questions," I said signing the contract and sliding it back over to him.
"Wonderful. Let me officially welcome you to Red Star Entertainment Dani," he said getting up and shaking my hand again. "I really think you and I are going to do some amazing work," he said beaming. "Now I think that's all for today. Whenever you get your songs recorded bring me in a copy and we'll go from there."
"Okay that sounds great. Thank you Ryan, for everything. Seriously I really appreciate it," I said getting up from the chair.
"No, thank you Dani. Enjoy the rest of your day," he said showing me out the door.
I walked back towards the exit and when I passed by the front desk I could feel the girl's eyes looking at me.
"Come back soon," she said as I passed by and I gave her a small, forced smile before leaving the building and catching a cab. I gave the driver Santana's address and immediately dialed her number.
"Hey baby. How did it go?" she said answering the phone.
"It went amazing. I have to record some of my songs at home so I can give him a rough idea of where I'm at with my music, but I really think this is going to work Santana. I really like it there," I said the excitement finally pouring out of me.
"Aww good. I'm so happy for you babe. What are you doing now?"
"I'm heading over to my favorite place in the world," I said excited to be with my girlfriend.
"Ew why are you going to the diner," she teased knowing where I really meant.
"Stop babe, you know I'm coming to your place. The diner can't compare with you," I said honestly. "I'm pulling up now, I'll see you in a minute," I said before ending the call. I walked up to her apartment and she immediately opened the door and let me in giving me a hug and a sweet kiss.
"I missed you," she said as we broke apart.
"Babe I've only been gone for like three hours," I chuckled as she led me over to the couch.
"So. I still missed you," she said and my heart melted.
"Have you guys seen my grey purse," Rachel came running out of her room rushing around the apartment.
"No I haven't sorry Rachel," Santana replied getting up from the couch. "Do you need some help?" she asked looking around the apartment.
"Nope thanks Santana, but I found it," she said a few seconds later, grabbing her keys and heading for the door.
"Have fun Rach," I called smiling at how frantic she was.
"Thanks," she called before closing the door behind her. Santana immediately came back to the couch and wrapped her arms around me pulling me down so that I was laying on top of her. She leaned in and gave me a soft kiss, which I gladly returned.
"I'm not used to seeing you be so nice to your roommates," I said when we pulled away.
"I'm not always mean to them. However, I was only trying to get her out of the apartment quicker so we could be alone," she said smiling up at me.
"Mmhm. I don't believe that for one second. You have a heart of gold Santana and you are just too scared to admit it," I said pulling her back into a kiss. We started off slow but eventually we couldn't hold back our passion and it quickly got heated. She trailed kisses down to my neck and I moaned at the contact before letting my head fall back to give her better access. She tugged at my shirt and I lifted my arms up letting her take my shirt off before I immediately went in for a needy kiss. We fought for dominance and eventually she flipped us over so that she was on top. She immediately pulled off her shirt before trailing hot kisses down my body. When she reached my waist, she undid the button on my jeans and quickly pulled them off before I pulled her back up, reconnecting our lips. I felt her playing with the clasp on my bra asking for permission.
"Please," I managed to breathe out, already breathing heavily from my desire for her. She didn't hesitate and in a second she was throwing my bra on the ground and giving some much needed attention to my breasts. I moaned loudly at the contact tangling my hands in her hair. She moved down my stomach and pulled my panties off in one swift motion, her experience definitely showing. I was expecting her to continue until she came back up to look me in the eyes.
"Are you sure?" she asked simply searching my eyes for any hesitation. I smiled at how concerned she was with my feelings before taking her in for a deep, passionate kiss to show her how completely sure I was. She immediately ran her fingers between my folds and started teasing me, which caused me to gasp. We continued to kiss until I couldn't take her teasing anymore.
"Please baby, I need you," I whispered in her ear and she immediately entered me, thrusting her two fingers. My head fell back from the pleasure and it didn't take long before I came. She waited for me to come down from my high and when I did she took her hand out and gave me a sweet kiss on my forehead. "I love you Dani," she whispered in my ear and I smirked before flipping us over. I heard her gasp out of shock and I immediately started to return the favor, expressing to her rather than telling her just how much I loved her.
