A/N: I honestly didn't think it was going to take me over two months to write another chapter, but unfortunately it did…anyways, I know some of you wanted to know about Santana and Brittany and we do find out some stuff from this chapter, but a lot of it is hidden or a reason and it's mostly because I don't know exactly what happened between them yet either so after reading the chapter, if you have any suggestions please let me know.


Chapter Ten: Why

"I believe we are in a bit of a situation."

Santana sighs from her spot against the wall. Standing by her was Rachel who was still trying to figure out why she was standing in the principal's office considering none of her kids were in there.

"Like I said before, none of that was my fault," Amanda states as she crosses her arms across her chest and throws out her Latina glare at Principal Schuester.

"Amanda, you shoved a student to the ground and proceeded to dump slushies on him."

"He was Jewfro 2.0," Amanda responds with ease.

Santana snickers from her spot on the wall and Will Schuester throws her a look.

"The point is that it us unacceptable no matter who it is. Instead of detention I want you to spend the next two weeks in Glee if that is okay with Mrs. Fabray?" Will asks as he looks towards Rachel.

Rachel shows off her award winning smile.

"We'd love to have her," Rachel smiles at Amanda. "We would be honored if you sit in with us Amanda."

"Whatever as long as it gets me out of detention," Amanda says with a sigh.

"Amanda!"

Amanda looks towards her mama and sighs.

"If this is all you need Schuester, I really need to get things prepared for my class."

Will nodded his head.

"That's all I needed Rachel, you are free to go."

Rachel leaves the room and Will is left to deal with the two Latinas.

"Now that Rachel has left the room I was hoping that I could talk to the two of you," Will says as he looks from Santana to Amanda. "I know things haven't been the best this last year for you two, but I want you to know that things get better."

Santana closes her eyes the moment Schuester starts talking about the past year she knows that her daughter, Amanda Lopez will blow up.

"You don't know anything! So what if my life has been hard. You don't know anything man. You think you are all powerful sitting behind that chair with a name plate sitting on the desk, that doesn't mean shit! You don't know how I feel!" Amanda stands up from her seat. Tears were starting to form in her eyes.

"Amanda, calm down…look I know how you feel, okay."

Santana rolls her eyes. Wrong words.

"Your mom didn't leave your family so you can't possible tell me how you feel. You don't get it. No one does!"

Amanda grabs her bag and runs out the door in haste. She needed to get out of the room.

"You never learned to keep your mouth shut about things you didn't understand," Santana says as she walks towards the door.

"Santana, I'm sorry."

"You should leave the counseling to your wife. Now I've got to go find my kid and try and fix the mess you made."

Will sighs when the door to his office closes. Sometimes it was easier just being a Spanish teacher.

-Friend to a Stranger-

It wasn't hard to find her, Santana knew. Amanda was a lot like her. She had the Latina attitude and she kept a lot of things to herself, but when she did show her emotions it was a welcomed gift because it didn't happen very often.

Santana climbs the last of the bleachers and sits down next to her daughter. Amanda wipes the remaining tears from her face and sniffles.

"Why'd she have to leave us mama? I don't understand."

"I don't understand either Bug. I ask myself that question every morning I wake up and every evening when I go to bed. I never really got an answer."

Amanda rests her head on her mama's shoulder.

"I thought we were happy."

"Your mom and I fought a lot Bug, but we were working on it or at least I thought we were. I'm just sorry you got stuck in the middle of it."

"I just want everything to go back to the way it was."

"I do too Bug," Santana sighs as she looks out toward the empty field. "I do too."

-Friend to a Stranger-

Beth leaned against her locker with her arms crossed as she took in Jason who was standing in front of her with a sorry expression on his face.

"Why should I believe you?" Beth finally asks.

"I'm not saying you have to believe me. I'm saying that the charges are dropped. I told my parents what really happened."

"Why?"

Jason looked down the hall where Lucy, Sara and Amanda were talking quietly.

"I'm just sorry okay," Jason says as he finally looks at Beth.

"I get it okay," Beth says with a sigh. "You get drunk and things get out of hand, but it shouldn't have gone that far. I've dealt with a lot of that in my life and you forcing my sister to kiss you was bad. If it happens again, I'll make sure there is permanent damage."

Jason cowers a little at Beth's threat, but he nods his head and walks away. Beth sighs and closes her eyes as she leans her head against the locker. Lucy, Sara and Amanda make their way over to her.

"What happened?" Lucy asks concerned.

Beth opens her eyes.

"I don't know exactly. All I know is that the charges are dropped and I won't have to go to court."

"Are you serious?" Lucy asks in surprise.

Beth smiles and nods her head.

"That's great babe."

Beth looks towards Sara and smiles while Amanda looks away from the scene.

"I'm going to catch you guys later," Amanda says before walking away.

Beth watches Amanda walk away with a frown and Sara frowns at Beth for watching Amanda walking away.

"I've got to go too," Sara mutters before walking off as well.

Beth looks at Lucy in confusion.

"What the hell just happened?"

Lucy shakes her head and sighs.

"You honestly can't tell?"

Beth shakes her head.

"Sara and Amanda both like you. You are dating Sara which pisses Amanda off because she knows she can't have you. Amanda is flirting with you and Sara is pissed because she's insecure about herself and your relationship and to be honest I don't know if you're the person to cheat so I can't really have an opinion on the matter yet, but I can tell you that this is the first time that Amanda has really taken an interest in someone. Usually she just sleeps with them, but she really just likes you."

"This sucks."

-Friend to a Stranger-

"Something is going on," Quinn says as she snuggles next to her wife. Her shift at the hospital had ended about an hour ago and Quinn had come home, showered and climbed into bed. Rachel closed her book, set it on the table and shut of the light.

"What do you mean something is going on?"

"I don't know. I just get this feeling that things are going to hit the fan pretty soon. I can't say what because I have no idea whatsoever, but I just feel like all of us are going to be challenged emotionally in the upcoming weeks."

"That's weird," Rachel comments before pecking Quinn on the lips.

Quinn closes her eyes and responds.

"I'm usually right about things like this."

Rachel went to sleep that night thinking one thing. Quinn was usually right about things like that.
