Chapter 10

A/N: First of all, I can't stop laughing at some of the responses on the last chapter, Sorry to disappoint you guys but I can't make this story longer it may not suit the original storyline, I appreciate the ideas though.

Again, errors are on me. Here's another chapter. Enjoy

Santana panicked. She's sure her heart stopped at what she heard next.

"Brittany."

She almost dropped her phone. Brittany? What happened to her?

"Santana?"

She heard her mom but she's not ready to hear what she was going to say next, but then she heard the older Latina laugh on the other line.

"Seriously, Santana, you should stop drinking a lot of coffee."

Her brows furrowed. Her mom speaks again.

"Brittany, today is her art exhibit remember?"

"Oh."

"Are you okay mija?"

"Yeah, yes, yes. I'm fine. Geez mom you scared me to death."

Alicia laughs again. "Okay, just hurry up mija. Bye."

"I will mom, see you. Bye."

Santana let out a deep breath that she didn't know she was holding. She don't know if she could take it if something bad happens to Brittany, specially now that she's ready to open up and to tell Brittany what she really feels. Well, she's kind of ready. She's never been attracted to girls before. Brittany and her used to compliment other girls when they are at the mall. Compliments like 'I like her butt' 'oh look she has beautiful lips'. She admired girls only for their physical characteristics and wish she would have that lips or butt or whatever. And that's the only reason.

Is it?

This feeling is completely new to her.

She looked again outside, their car is still not moving.

"Fuck this traffic. I'm going to walk if I have to."

The brunette pays the driver and started to walk, and then she walks a little faster until she's running. The venue of Brittany's exhibit is more or less 4 blocks away.

Santana was a little out of breath when she reached the place.

Okay, Santana. This is it. She stood at the door and fixed herself before entering. When she entered the room, she was expecting a bunch of people but she was welcomed by blank tables and a bunch of utilities clearing up the place instead.

"I didn't make it."

She looked around the place, everything was perfect. Brittany's first art exhibit, and she's not there. Her heart swells when she saw a picture of her, sleeping. The photos are in black and white and there's a whole lot of them. She feels so bad for not making it on her exhibit. She walked away, nearly tearing up but then she saw a familiar blonde hair through the glass door on the other room.

The exhibit was a success. Her uncle Steve was there as well as Cedric. Her other relatives, some of the professional photographers, Quinn, grandma Carmen and the Lopez'. Everybody was there, everybody but Santana.

"I guess she choose Sebastian after all." Brittany said and took another shot of whiskey.

"C'mon Brittany, we're not sure of that yet." Quinn tried to comfort her friend.

"But why isn't she here with me now huh Quinn? Tell me!" Quinn fell silent when Brittany's voice rises.

"She's the one who always tells me to go for this, that the day of my exhibit will be great, that she'll be here when that day comes just like every important occasion and every success in my life." Brittany finally broke down and cried. Quinn didn't know what to do. She's not Santana to make Brittany feel better in an instant. The least she could do now is to lend a shoulder to her friend. Quinn scooted closer to the other Blonde and embraced her.

"Sssh. Don't cry Britt, you should be happy today remember?" Quinn says, patting Brittany's back through the embrace. Not long when Brittany starts to relax again, sobbing a little, she pilled away from Quinn arms.

"You're right." Sniff "Thanks Quinn, for being here. I know Sebastian is your cousin and all so—"

"Nah, it's nothing. He's old enough to take care of himself." Quinn says and gives Brittany a quick peck on her lips.

"C'mon, I'll take you home." Quinn announces and stops when she saw Brittany's reaction on the kiss.

"What? God, Brittany that's just a friendly kiss. Our lips barely even grazed! And besides I already have a loving girlfriend so don't you worry. I'm so not into Blondes like me."

Quinn explained and waved her hands. Brittany finally relaxes and stood up. She turned to the door and found Santana standing there with an unexplainable look on her face.

"Santana." Brittany said but the brunette turned away and ran. Shit! She saw what Quinn did.

She then looked back at Quinn. The other blonde just nod and gave her a knowing smile. Brittany didn't waste another minute and run after Santana.

"Santana, wait!"
