Things are going to really be wrapping up soon.

Brittany's POV

I stared at Santana as she looked at me like I was the only thing in the world that she cared about.

It made me feel special but also made me feel like there was something happening.

"Why didn't you come to me?" I asked.

She shrugged and backed away. It was like she was pulling back and it made me want to pull her back but I needed to let her do her thing.

"I wasn't even sure how I felt until just now. I wanted to ask you out but...fuck, I don't know okay? I'm not really sure what even happened just now." She bit her lower lip and looked at me. "I really like you but I'm not the kind of person who just tells people how I'm feeling."

"I know but we already talked about all kinds of things," I said frowning at her.

"Yea, but honestly, that's different. This is real life Britt, and that was like...it was like a fantasy and it was perfect. Until that last day when I fucked up."

"Things were gonna end anyway there was no right way to do it."

"Yea there was and how I ended this wasn't the right way."

"Okay. Maybe it wasn't but we agreed to let that go and try to be friends. And then this happens."

"I'm sorry," she said softly. She stared at me for a moment and then she smiled. "Britt...I really like you. Do um...do you wanna go out on a date with me?"

It was like in a dream.

She looked like she was about to panic and I cleared my throat and nodded my head quickly.

"Yes, yes please."

"Oh!" she sighed relieved that I finally said something and then she smiled so brightly.

"I'm sorry."

"It's fine!" She grinned and then swallowed nervously. "I just thought that it might have been a weird time to ask and I don't know."

"It was a weird time but everything about us is different so I don't really care."

"I want to do this right Britt...dating, I mean. I want to go slow and do it right this time," she said softly.

"Me too..."

"So...what about Friday? Are you...free?"

"Yes. I mean, I am."

"Perfect!" She smiled again. "I'll pick you up at seven."

"Perfect." I smiled brightly at her and she took a deep breath. "I should go. I'll see you at school tomorrow?"

"Yep," she said, popping her P. "See you tomorrow."

The first thing I did when I got in my car was call Quinn.

"So I found out what happened."

"Um...what do you mean?"

"I mean I found out what was going on with Santana."

"Oh! Tell me all about it," she said quickly. There was some shuffling in the background and then there was silence.

"Well...can I come over right now? It might be easier and I'm still parked in front of her house."

"Sure...I'll see you soon!"

Santana's POV

I was nervous the next day for school.

Seeing Brittany after having told her how I felt was something that made me want to take extra care of how I looked and I was still trying to figure out what I wanted to do with her on our date.

Our first date.

I smiled as I parked into the lot of the school and I quickly made my way inside toward my locker. School was something that I had to do but it was also something that I liked and that was not something that anyone ever knew. I wasn't about to shout it off the roof tops.

"San!"

When I turned around toward Quinn she was smiling so brightly it confused me.

"What?"

"I heard that you asked Britt out and she said yes!"

I closed my eyes and then nodded my head. "Yea, I did and she did."

"That's awesome." She looked excited about it and I rolled my eyes.

"It's a date."

"Exactly!"

She waited until I was ready and had put my books in my locker and then pulled me with her toward the class room we had our first class in. I didn't see Britt but that happened a lot so I wasn't that shocking. But I was looking forward to seeing her even more now that we were going on a date and it was pretty exciting to wait and then see her later.

Seeing Britt was indeed very exciting and I could feel myself blushing as we kept stealing glances. It wasn't very sneaky though because I could see Quinn staring at us.

Puck soon joined us and Quinn and Puck started talking while Brittany and I just sat there listening to them.

"My mom asked if you could come over for dinner," Puck told Quinn.

"For what?"

"She already invited Rachel...so I have no idea."

"Maybe she wants to see if you guys are really dating," Britt said and I bit my lip not to smile.

"She knows we're not dating...but why invite Rachel?"

The next day everything about Quinn and Puck's situation became clear.

As it turned out Mrs. Puckerman just wanted to ask both Quinn and Rachel something and because Puck had been a hardass about it she hadn't told him what it was about. From what I understood of it it wasn't even that big but making it big seemed to help get Puck to do whatever she wanted.

But what I hadn't expected was Quinn and Rachel coming to school together, holding hands. Puck hadn't told me about that.

Through the week I kept an eye on the two lovebirds because as it seemed, they looked like they had decided to be together but Quinn didn't say anything about it. So, I had to be sneaky and follow them during school. Britt joined me and together we found out that yes, they were together and yes, they kept sucking face while we were standing there watching them.

When Friday came around, school went by too fast and the afternoon too slow.

I wondered for a moment, how Britt saw me and what I needed to do to keep up that image.

But then I realized. I wanted to be me, all of me without hiding and so I did what I could to make myself beautiful.

It took me a while, and by the time I was wearing my favorite jeans with my favorite tank top, my clothes were strewn around the room.

I didn't bother to clean it up but when it was finally time to go, I just left everything as it was and made my way over to Britt's place.

Nerves were rushing through my body but that didn't stop me from smiling. This kind of nerves, I liked. This were first time butterflies, and I always enjoyed those.

When Britt opened the door with a smile, I grinned at her and then looked at her.

She was wearing almost exactly the same as I was, jeans and a tank top. It was pretty funny to see how we had the same taste but she was way too beautiful.

"You look...amazing."
