Chapter 10

(Santana POV)

=.=.=.=

I left the bedroom as quietly as I possibly so not to wake up Brittany it was 5am after all and there was no reason to submit her to the early morning like I had to endure almost every day. And yes I couldn't help. I kissed her on the cheek. She just looked so beautiful laying there with her blonde mane going every which way; like sleeping beauty. I'm not much of a romantic but I couldn't help but feel all gooey inside when we were alone together. It was definitely a feeling I had never felt before… and it kinda scared the crap out of me.

Rachel was nowhere in sight once I arrived at the barn. Her car had been in the garage when I left so she was probably still passed out from her outing with Quinn and Tina last night. I didn't mind doing the feeding by myself but today I wish she was here so I could finish quickly. I really wanted to go back up and maybe…just maybe snuggle with Britt before she woke up and realized I was doing it on purpose.

I had my arms full of feed buckets when I noticed Rachel staggering in; with just a hoodie and shorts on. Her hair was an absolute disaster and it looked like she was still sleepwalking. I laughed.

"Shhhhh…" She muttered and shuffled over to me taking a few of the buckets out of my arms.

"Late night?" I chuckled softly watching her.

She nodded and rubbed her eyes awake. "I'm still sleepy…"

"No I think you're really hung over. What did you guys do last night?"

"I don't remember…" Rachel muttered sleepily and started with the feeding.

I raised an eyebrow at her. "You didn't drive home did you?"

"No no… Tina dropped me off and Quinn drove my car home."

"Good, I would have killed you otherwise."

We remained silent for a little bit longer before Rachel glanced over at me looking a little more like a normal human being than the sleeping hobbit zombie. "So how was your night?"

I looked at her trying not to smile so much when thinking about it. "It was fun."

"What did you and Brittany do? Everyone kept asking where you two were."

I just shrugged still trying to control my huge smile. "Watched a ton of movies and ate junk food." My eyes glanced at her; she was staring at me.

"You seem really happy." Rachel finally threw out my way.

I paused looking away from her. "I like hanging out with Brittany. She's fun." I couldn't bring myself to look at my cousin. I knew I liked Brittany more than just a friend…just not sure I want everyone else to know it yet. I never had these types of feelings for a girl or actually want to date one. My usual girl experimentation was more the occasional make-out session at a party. That was it. No real feeling-feelings were involved.

We walked back into the grain room to get the last of the feed. "You're nicer when you hang around her."

"What's that supposed to me?" My eyes narrowed; defensive mode quickly coming up.

She chuckled slightly. "It's a good thing." She paused for a second. "How do I put this…You're not a huge bitch when you're around her. You treat her differently. It's nice."

"No I don't." I muttered.

"Yeah you do."

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever." After filling the last of the buckets I shoved a few into Rachel's arms and hurried to finish not saying another word until we got back to the house.

I beat Rachel back and grinned at her. "I'm going to get some more sleep… Umm you should too. You look horrid." I smirked at her.

"Gee…Thanks." She chuckled softly as we walked through the garage door quietly. "Breakfast later?" She asked at the top of the stairs.

"If I'm up." I gave her a smile and carefully opened my bedroom door and quietly locked it, trying not to wake Brittany.

A large smile spread across my lips seeing her still sound asleep sprawled out on my bed. Maybe just maybe I could slip back into bed and get another hour or so of cuddle time before she woke up. She was taking up most of the bed lying on her back. I smirked and started climbing back in my knee caused the bed to dip slightly and Brittany shifted slightly feeling my weight. Deciding to just bite the bullet I quickly slid into bed near her.

She let out a deep sleepy sigh and turned towards me. Her arm suddenly threw itself over my waist and pulled me closer. Brittany's face burrowed into my back and I could feel her heavy breathing against my neck as she continued to sleep soundly. I couldn't stop beaming feeling her arm tightly wrapped around my stomach. I snuggled deeper into the bed closing my eyes.

Something was pulling me suddenly out of my sleep. I couldn't really tell exactly what it was but it was definitely something pleasant, my brain couldn't quite register what was happening. My eyes slowly fluttered trying to wake up. I froze suddenly feeling soft lips brush against the back of my neck; they began placing feather like kisses along the top of my spine. My body shivered at the feeling and I couldn't help relax letting out a content sigh.

I finally had the courage to turn around in Brittany's arms to see if she was awake or just sleeping and having a sexy dream. Her bright blue eyes locked with mine. She still looked half asleep. "Hi…" I smiled softly at her running my fingertips up and down her arm softly.

"Morning." She gave me a matching smile and made no move to remove her arm from my waist. Our faces were just inches apart and I could feel her hot breath against my lips. I found myself staring at them.

I cleared my throat slightly and stared back into her eyes. "Did I wake you this morning?"

"Nope." Her lips curled into a smirk.

I rolled my eyes. "You are the worse liar." A giggle passed my lips seeing her pout in response.

My lips suddenly pressed against hers. I don't even remember leaning in the few inches to seal the deal but I did. It wasn't like the kiss at the party. It was so much better. Slow and sweet. Her lips gently played against mine and my heart jumped knowing she was kissing me back and it just wasn't my imagination.

A soft groan passed between my lips when I felt her tongue brush against me. I responded instantly deepening our kiss. The kiss became more urgent and needy. I needed a breath but I couldn't bring myself to pull away. So I did the only thing that felt right. To deepen it even more. Our tongues dueled wildly and I found myself pushing her back straddling over her hips. Brittany's hands gripped my hips tightly and after another amazing moment we finally had to part both gasping for air.

I kept my face close to hers and nipped her now swollen lip playfully. A small giggle escaped her lips. "Your sweet lady kisses are so much better sober." I joked with a smirk.

"Completely agree." She mumbled and her lips attached to neck. Another soft groan sounded from my lips as I smiled brightly.

I really couldn't say how long we stayed in my bed. But when I finally made it into the bathroom I quickly noticed a few small bruises along my neck; courtesy of Brittany. I just smirked. We didn't do anything but make-out and I was surprised we kept all of our clothes on. And to tell you the truth I was completely ok with that.

I pulled out my makeup bag and grabbed the concealer hoping to hide the obvious hickies on my neck. I could feel her watching me from the doorway and I smiled. "What?" I finally asked glancing at her briefly before going back to work on my neck.

"Nothin'…" I noticed her shift slightly staring down at her feet.

With a pause in my makeup job I looked at her. "What's wrong?" I asked softly.

Britt finally looked up meeting my eye. "So what-what are we?" She cleared her throat before continuing. "Are we like dating? Just hooking up? And what about Karofsky?" She started rambling on.

I chuckled. "Whoa deep breath." She did slowly. I turned towards her leaning against the sink. "I like you…"

"I like you too." Her face lit up.

I bit my bottom lip slightly. "I don't want to rush this…" I knew I had to tread carefully here. "I-I'm not sure I want to label this right now." I kept my voice soft and watched her.

She nodded still looking at her feet. "I just don't want this to becoming confusing… I don't like getting confused…" Her voice was gentle almost nervous.

"I know Britt-Britt… I just can't label it right now…"

Her eyes finally lifted up looking at me. "So… we're like a secret?"

I smiled slightly. "Yeah - we're a secret."

"I'm good at keeping secrets."

"Me too." I continued to watch her. She seemed better now. I hated having to put this relationship or whatever it was on the DL but knowing just us would know about it made me a hell of alot more comfortable about this.

I turned back to the mirror and restarted my makeup. "And Karofsky?" Her voice finally broke the silence.

The smirk on my face grew. "There was never a Karofsky."

Brittany walked over and hopped up on the counter staring at me with a narrowed brow. "What do you mean?"

"Just using him to make you jealous." I kept smirking. "You like completely ignored me after that party. Didn't think you liked our buzzed make-out session. So I used him to see if you'd get jealous."

The scoff coming from her caused me to stop what I was doing once again to look at her. "You were sucking face with Karofsky most of the night… What was I supposed to think?" Her shoulders shrugged slightly. "Figured you weren't into the girl thing."

"Obviously you were wrong on that assumption."

"I'm glad. And I was jealous." Brittany's feet began to swing slightly as she watched me. "I hated seeing you two together." She muttered softly. "Wanted to punch him in the face. And I don't like violence. Then I was plotting a plan to get rid of him especially after you kissed my cheek this morning. I knew you liked me then."

"Wait…You were wake?" My eyes widened slightly. It was supposed to be a sweet thing that happened when she was sleeping that she was not supposed to know about. Oh well, guess it doesn't much anymore.

"Of course I was, silly. I also just laid there after you left trying to come up with this whole plan to ninja attack Karofsky in the parking lot…" She smirked brightly. "I must have fallen asleep because I woke back up and you were there snuggled with me and so was your neck… So I ninja attacked your neck instead."

I chuckled and couldn't help but lean over placing a soft peck on her lips. "You are some adorable."

The large smile reappeared. "So you won't see him anymore?"

I finished with my makeup and started putting it away after checking Brittany over for any marks; there weren't any…I'd have to fix that later. "His ass is grass on Monday."

Her brow furrowed. "How does that work? How can his ass become grass?"

I giggled slightly. "It's a saying Britt. Meaning he's going to be destroyed, mowed over." She continued to look confused. "Don't worry about him… He'll be gone Monday."

"Promise?"

I walked up in front of her and gave her a quick kiss. "Promise." Her legs quick wrapped around my waist and pulled me up between her thighs. Brittany's lips crushed against mine and I found myself wrapping my arms around her neck digging my fingers into her hair pulling her into a deeper kiss.

I chuckled slightly once we parted to catch our breath. "You know never pegged you for being into girls."

"I kissed every boy in school." She shrugged and my eyebrow rose slightly. "Once I finished that list I started on the girls. Found that I liked kissing them better." She smirked slightly staring at me. "I like kissing. I really like kissing you though…so I think I'll stop my quest to kiss every girl in school." Brittany rambled on rubbing my sides softly.

"Yes I think stopping that quest immediately." I started kissing her neck lightly. "Cuz Is own your lips now."

"Mmmhmm." Her head tilted to the side slightly giving me better access to her exposed neck.

After a minute or two… I couldn't really tell I was too busy. I heard my stomach growl and I finally slowly detached myself from Brittany's neck giving it once last nip below the ear. "Think it's time for breakfast." I patted her thighs and her legs dropped from around my hips.

"You mean brunch! Its past breakfast and it's too early for lunch." She jumped off the counter and followed me out of the bathroom quickly taking my pinky in hers.

"Ok fine brunch." I gave it a squeeze and flashed her a smile before heading down to get something to eat.

"Whatcha hungry for?" Brittany plopped down on a stool as I started looking through the fridge. "We got eggs, cereal; I could make pancakes, or waffles."

"Pancakes!" Britt bounced in her seat excitedly.

"Shhhhh!" We both turned peaking over the island out into the living room to see Rachel on the couch watching TV. I haven't even noticed her or the TV on when we came downstairs. It's a good thing I had been on my best behavior and didn't kiss Brittany in the kitchen for her to see.

"Rach!" Brittany got up from the stool and jogged over hurling herself over the back of the couch plopping down next to her; I couldn't help but laugh hearing Rachel whining.

"Rach I'm making pancakes want some?" I asked pulling out the pancake mix from the cupboard.

"Not hungry… Headache…" She mumbled and I peeked out noticing how crappy she still looked. That must have been some party.

"Ok." I was going to make her some anyways. She would need food and meds. I poured two glasses of OJ and grabbed a few Advil bringing them out to her. "Take these and drink all of the juice." I handed one to Britt and the other to Rachel.

Rachel reached out without hesitation and took them from me mumbling a thank you. My eyes landed on Brittany who had stolen the remote from Rachel and had now changed the channel to some cartoons. "Chocolate chips? Banana? Plain?" I asked her.

Brittany's head tilted back to look up at me. "Chocolate chips lots of them." She grinned.

I forced myself not to lean down and kissing her right then and there. She was way too adorable for her own good. "Coming right up." I went back to the kitchen and started our 'brunch'.

As Brittany requested I put a ton of chocolate chips in her pancakes, a few in mine, then none for the hobbit. I figured Brittany liked the works on her pancakes, I've seen that girl eat sweets like they belong in their own food group. So I made hers like mine; butter, syrup, and whipped cream. The picky dwarf just got syrup. I brought both their plates and Rachel looked at me questioningly. "When did you become a cook?"

"Since you didn't get off your hungover ass to make us food." She laughed and I walked back into the kitchen to get my plate and drinks.

I set my drink down and plopped down next to Brittany. "What's wrong?" She hadn't even touched her food yet.

"They look like Mickey Mouse…" Her eyes glanced at me. So what I like to make shaped pancakes…so sue me… "How can I eat Mickey?"

"Oh gee Brittany it's a pancake. Not actually Mickey." Rachel muttered with her mouthful of food.

"But-"

I grinned and set down my plate on the coffee table. "Here." I reached out and grabbed her plate from her and turned away from her slightly. Using her fork I cut of the ears of the pancakes and towered them on top of the two larger circles and scooped up some of the whipped cream placing it on the top.

Turning back towards her I handed her back her plate. "Now you have a pancake tower."

"You're so awesome!" She gave me that biggest smile and quickly started eating.

I felt a pair of eyes on me and found Rachel staring with a smirk. "What hobbit?" I couldn't help but snap.

"Nothing..." Her smirk never faltered and she went back to eating her pancakes. I went back to watching the Scooby Doo cartoon currently on as we ate and Brittany's legs fell into my lap after we were done with our food. I desperately wanted to run my hands all over them but with Rachel there and me not wanting her to find out yet caused me to keep my hands to myself. I was on my best behavior and that was fucking hard to do.

=.=.=.=

It was Monday and I had so many things to do already. It wasn't even first period yet. I needed Karofsky gone, I needed to talk with Brittany, and try and finish my homework that I didn't do this weekend. It was already going to be a long day. I closed my locker and noticed the leggy blonde walking in my direction. I smiled waiting for her. "Hey." Brittany grinned at me once she got to me.

"Hi." I took her pinky into mine and started leading her down towards the girl's bathroom. She gladly followed along without protest. I pulled her inside and quickly checked to see if the coast was clear; it was. "We need to talk." I had done a lot of thinking since Saturday morning and I thought of a few ground rules that I thought we should implement.

"Talk? I thought we were going to make-out?" I tried not to moan softly at the thought of making out with her in the girl's bathroom. But Brittany quick frown snapped me out of my little fantasy. "Are you taking back our secret?"

"No-no!" I quickly smiled to reassure her running my fingers up her forearm softly. "Our secret is still on."

"Okay good. I couldn't stop thinking about it the rest of the weekend."

"Me either. But we need some ground rules… so people don't find out."

"Good idea. I don't want to do something to mess up the secret."

"Ok first off… We can't keep calling it a secret. People will ask questions about it. So how about bestie-time?" Her quick nod made me smile. "Now for rule number one; we can't kiss or hold hands in public."

"We can't?" She pouted slightly.

"No Britt-Britt. That defeats the purpose of the secret."

"Bestie-time." Brittany corrected me.

"Right. Don't worry we can sneak off to have bestie-time." Her smile grew. "Rule two; no cute nicknames in public." Britt pouted again. "I know it sucks. And lastly, rule number three; this one's for you… no excessive leering." I chuckled seeing her staring at my chest. She had already done it several times today. It was cute, she was cute. "Yeah like now. Yup here Britt-Britt." I chuckled.

"I don't like that rule…." Her arms crossed over her chest. "I like staring at you."

"I know you do." I leaned up and kissed her pout softly.

A small smile spread across her lips. "You just broke rule number one…"

My eyes rolled. "Yes yes… I know. Ok…so these rules are going to be harder than I thought."

Brittany was silent for a second. "Then why don't we let everyone know about bestie-time… And then we won't need rules."

"I'm not ready for that type of public announcement Britt. Can I just have some time to wrap my head around this - this whole us thing first?" I asked softly and she just smiled at me.

"Of course. I like having bestie-time. It's like I'm a secret agent." I so wanted to lean back up and kiss her again but I had to refrain. I needed to get use to my own rules; even if they were going to be extremely difficult.
