"Mmm San, wait" Quinn mumbles into Santana's lips as she pushes her shoulders gently to try to get a little space between them, only Santana removes her lips from Quinn's and attaches them to her neck to trail kisses down. Quinn can only moan in return, she's missed this, a lot.
"San" Quinn weakly says, she wants to stop but deep down she really doesn't.
"Yes Quinn?" Santana responds as she carries on kissing Quinn's neck.
"We have to stop"
"Why?" Santana removes her mouth from Quinn's neck to look at her confused.
"I think we should take things slow" Quinn painfully tells her.
"Really?" Santana whines, Quinn can't help but find it adorable as Santana pouts. She quickly kisses the pout away. "So what does this mean? No sex?"
"Yes" Santana immediately frowns. "But we can do other stuff" Quinn winks at her.
"Why exactly are we taking things slow? I mean we've already had sex"
"I want to do this properly San, like normal couples. Get to know each other before we have sex" Quinn says.
"But Quinn im horny" Santana whines to which Quinn laughs at her. "What if you give in? You just can't control your lust for me" Santana smirks as she slowly moves forward into Quinn's space, flushing her body up against Quinn's.
"That won't happen, I can control myself perfectly" Quinn says as she keeps a straight face.
"Do I need to remind me when you pressed me up against an elevator, kissing me with all you've got?"
"That was purely because you were harassing me; I had to do something about it" Quinn replies.
"How about kissing? Can we kiss?" Santana says as she places her arms around Quinn's waist and places a kiss on Quinn's lips.
"Kissing's good" Quinn says while carrying on kissing Santana. "Kissing's very good"
"Good" Santana mumbles into Quinn's lips.
Before the kiss can get further Quinn has to stop it again as it was definitely heating up as Santana's hands made their way down to Quinn's ass.
"Okay" Quinn separates herself from Santana. "It's getting late, I should probably head home"
"Or you could just sleep here" Santana offers.
"San, we're taking things slow" Quinn reminds her.
"Yes Quinn im very aware of your desire to become a chastity princess. We can sleep in the same bed and not have sex you know"
"Alright" Quinn gives in. She really doesn't want to have to get a cab home at this time. There are worse things in the world than sharing and cuddling up in a bed with Santana Lopez.
They both make their way towards Santana's bedroom. As they get in there Santana makes her way over to her draws to get out a large t shirt and pair of shorts to which she turns around and tosses to Quinn, along with this she get out her own pair of t shirt and shorts, although she knows she would rather sleep naked next to Quinn's nakedness but she wants to respect Quinn's wishes to take things slow.
As soon as they are both changed they quickly get under the covers. Santana lies on her back and Quinn soon cuddles up to her leaving no space between the two.
"I like this" Quinn as her head moves further into the crook of Santana's neck and tightening her grip around Santana.
"Like what?"
"This. Lying in bed all snuggled up. Like we're a proper couple"
Santana turns to face Quinn. "Well we are a proper couple now, it's just you and me now babe"
"You and me" Quinn confirms.
Beep beep beep beep beep beep
"Ughh" Santana groans as she clicks the alarm off. "We have to get up" she says to Quinn even though they only tighten their grip on each other.
"I don't wanna get up" Quinn whines.
"Me too babe but we have rounds" Santana informs her.
"Oww, can't we just skip it? Just this once" Quinn asks playfully knowing full well that they will both have to get up and get ready sooner or later.
"I would love too but im sure Holiday would freak if we weren't there"
"Okay" Quinn sighs.
Santana turns on her side to face Quinn.
"You're cute in the morning" she playfully tells her. Quinn gives her a big grin in response, this moment waking up in Santana's arm actually being together in the proper way, it's the best way to start her morning.
"Right, now we only have like 20 minutes to get ready so get your sexy ass out of bed" Santana tells her as she makes her way out of Quinn's grasp and out of the bed. Quinn follows in suit to Santana and starts to get ready until she realises she doesn't have any clothes apart from the ones she wore last night and she really does not want to show up to the hospital into the outfit she wore to the bar yesterday.
"San can I borrow some clothes?" she asks.
"Yeah sure take what you want" Santana replies.
Quinn goes over to Santana's wardrobe and takes out a pair of black skinny jeans and a small t shirt.
Santana finishes getting ready first she takes a look over to Quinn to see how far along she is until she is ready. She can't help but admire how cute Quinn looks in her clothes. It's not even been one whole day that they have been official and Santana is already this smitten, she's so screwed.
"Okay im ready" Quinn comes out of the bathroom five minutes later; she's now added one of Santana's jackets to the mix. "What?" Quinn asks as she sees Santana is staring at her and not saying any words.
"Nothing, I just like seeing you in my clothes; it's a total turn on" Santana winks at Quinn. Quinn rolls her eyes at this trying to hide the smile that has arose on her face, not wanting to give Santana the upper hand.
"Come on, let's get your sexy ass out the door or Holidays gonna freak" Quinn teases Santana as she grabs her hand and leads them out of the front door.
"Why are you so happy this morning?" Rachel asks her. They are all in the locker room, getting changed from their normal clothes into their scrubs.
"I just had a really good night" Quinn replies honestly.
Rachel eyes her sceptically. "Oh I bet, don't think I didn't notice how you didn't come home last night. But really Quinn, after one date? That's a bit sluttish don't you think?" Rachel carefully tells her.
"Oh no, no no no. That is not what happened" Quinn quickly defends herself, especially Rachel just basically called her a slut. "He was an asshole. Seriously Rachel how do you know a guy like that?"
"Let's just say he may not be the most interesting man out their but he certainly has a talent in the sheets"
"Ew" Quinn grimaces. "So why the hell did you set me up with him?"
"He was the only that could make it on short notice" Rachel shrugs. "So if you didn't go home with him where were you all night?"
Well Quinn knows she can't hide it and she definitely doesn't want to. She wants to be out in the open with Santana, show everyone that she's hers.
"I was with Santana" she says.
"Oh Quinn, please don't tell me you've been through all of this just to be back in the same boat, or should I say bed with Santana" Rachel sighs.
"It wasn't like that. Were together, like properly together." Quinn tells a stunned Rachel.
"Really?" Rachel asks shocked. Quinn nods in return.
"Oh well then im very happy for you Quinn"
Quinn smiles at her in thanks. "Actually, you're kind of to thank for it a little"
"How so?"
"Santana told me she was jealous that I was starting to date other people and that's what caused her to admit her feelings for me"
"Well then, I expect to hear that in the marriage toast" Rachel jokes.
"Okay let's not get a head of ourselves" Quinn quickly responds.
"Would you take her name?" Rachel teases.
"Rachel stops" Quinn laughs awkwardly, it is way too soon to be talking about this, it's too soon to be even thinking about this.
"Alright alright. Come on, Holiday is waiting for us and so is your Mrs" Quinn rolls her eyes at Rachel's last words.
Around 1pm Quinn thinks it's definitely a good time to stop for lunch and take a well-deserved break, especially after dealing with the monster that is Mrs Becket in 302, that women scares Quinn to death. She gets to the cafeteria and quickly takes a quick scan of the room to see if there is someone worth sitting with. To her look she finds the one she wants to see most, Santana is sat at a table on her own eating her lunch while looking over a chart. Knowing Santana is there Quinn makes her way towards the queue and grabs something to eat before sitting down across from Santana.
Santana looks up to see who has just placed a tray opposite her, to see who it is that has just interrupted her peaceful time. She lifts her head to find Quinn smiling at her.
"Hey" Santana smiles back to her after seeing Quinn's. She loves that smile.
"Hey" Quinn sits down. "What are you reading?" Quinn refers to the chart.
"Oh it's just my patient's history details; Rhodes is convinced there is something going on with her and her boyfriend so she sent me to do the digging."
"Oh that sucks"
"Eh it's not too bad, Rhodes said that if I find out what it is I get to scrub in" Santana shrugs.
"That's alright then. Want me to help?" Quinn offers.
"No its okay I don't want bother you with it. Just gotta dig around a bit"
"You sure" Santana nods.
Quinn takes her free hand which she is not using to eat and reaches over the table to grab Santana's free hand. As she gets it she interlaces their fingers together. Quinn unconsciously rubs her thumb over the top of Santana's hand soothingly. There's something about just holding hands with Santana that gets the butterfly's going in Quinn's stomach, she's falling hard.
"Aw well look what we have here" Rachel squeals as she walks up to their table with her food in her hand. "You guys are so cute" she says with a big grin on her face. As Quinn hears this she separates her hand from Santana's knowing that if she didn't Rachel would probably not shut up about the two of them, she looks to Santana who seems like she wants to rip Rachel's head off as Rachel won't shut up already.
Over in the lunch queue Puck and Sam are grabbing their food as they arrived just after Rachel. They both look over to where Rachel is sat with Quinn and Santana. As Sam sees this he has an immediate scowl on his face.
"Why is Quinn sat with Santana? I thought they weren't speaking to each other?" Sam asks to Puck.
"How the hell should I know?" Puck retorts, even though he knows exactly what's going on, well kind of.
"They better not be sleeping together again, Santana isn't good for Quinn" Sam states.
"Oh yeah? And who is? You?" Puck asks in disbelief.
"Well yeah" Sam replies back to puck as if the answer should be obvious to him. Puck just shakes his head at Sam's actions.
"Dude I hate to tell you but Rachel was right, if Quinn wanted to be with you she would be. You gotta let it go man" puck tells him.
"And I told you, she was just confused. People change all the time so im holding out until she says no" Sam confidently steps up as he hands the cashier the money for his food, puck follows in suit to him and walks off with Sam towards the girls' table. As they are walking up they see Rachel looking all happy with Quinn and Santana rolling their eyes every chance they get at what Rachel is saying.
"Hey what are you talking about?" Sam asks as he places his tray of food down and takes the seat next to Quinn. Puck takes the one next to Santana.
"Just at how cute Quinn and Santana are" Rachel responds.
"I don't get it?" Sam states confused. Why are they cute? Am I missing something?
"They're finally together" Rachel claps.
WHAT?!
"What do you mean together?" Sam asks again, not knowing whether he wants to know the answer or not. He knows he probably doesn't.
This is where Santana decides to step up to give Rachel a breather and so she can shift the topic aware from her and Quinn.
"Quinn and I are together. She's my girlfriend." Santana informs him.
Sam doesn't say anything in return, he just sits there and watches Quinn stare at Santana with loved up eyes while Santana does the same. He grimaces at them feeling his jealously taking over.
"Dude I think that's her saying no" Puck whispers to him.
This isn't over. Im gonna get Quinn I know I am. I just have to plot a master plan to get her and everything will work out great. Plan A: Find out Santana's weaknesses.
"So lunch was fun" Quinn says as she walks up towards Santana who quickly turns around as soon as she hears Quinn's voice.
"I swear I was once step away from smacking Berry across the face just to get her to shut up"
"She means well"
"True" Santana agrees. "I hate to say it but I've actually grown fond of the hobbit, she's not all that bad"
"Oh my God! Did everybody hear that? Santana Lopez actually said she likes me!" Rachel's voice playfully shouts out as she walks up to where Santana and Quinn are standing.
"Dear God" Santana groans. What did she just do?
Quinn can't but laugh at the situation, she knew that Rachel was stood not that far away from where Santana was stood but she's guessing Santana didn't.
"I swear to God Berry if you don't remove your arm from my shoulder I will snap it off" Santana warns Rachel as Rachel put her arm over Santana's shoulder as a sign of their new friendship. Rachel removes her arm but she can't help but play things further.
"Oh but Santana I know you wouldn't, now that we're friends and all" Rachel teases.
"You could have warned me she was stood right behind me" Santana speaks to Quinn.
"Sorry" Quinn puts her hands up in protest. "I didn't know that you were going aboard the Rachel Berry fan train" Quinn smirks.
"Remind me again why you're my girlfriend" Santana playfully asks as she sees that Quinn is enjoying every minute of this.
"Because you can't get enough of me" Quinn winks back.
"Mmhmm"
"Aw you guys" Rachel interrupts.
Santana turns to Rachel and gives her a look. A look saying stop now or you will regret it. Rachel immediately catches on and starts to separate the distance between her and the love birds.
"Bye Quinn, bye best friend" Rachel shouts to them as she walks away to which Quinn giggles and Santana places her hand on her forehead.
"So did you figure out what going on between your patient and the boyfriend?" Quinn asks Santana to change to topic.
"Yeah I did, I got it out of her in the end. Rhodes is doing the surgery in an hour and I get to assist" Santana grins.
"I would say congratulations but im actually really jealous"
"I would be too"
"What time do you think you will finish today?" Quinn asks.
"Um well whenever the surgery finishes which if all goes well should be about 7pm. Why?"
"I was wondering if you want to go for some food or something" Quinn asks nervously, she's never actually asked someone out before.
"Quinn Fabray are you asking me out on a date?" Santana teases.
"Maybe"
"Well in that case I would love to"
"Great, how about I pick you up at 8?"
"Sure"
Beep beep beep beep
"Oh that's Rhodes, she's pushing the surgery up and hour. Might be outta here sooner than you think. I'll you see you later" Santana says as she leans in forwards to place a soft kiss on Quinn's lips.
"Go kick ass, or whatever the surgical term for that is" Quinn jokes.
"Always do babe" Santana winks and then walks off in the direction of the elevator to get to the OR floor.
At around 6:30 Santana gets out of the OR everything went smoothly and the girl is going to make a full recovery. An even better one than she would have now she got rid of the loser boyfriend.
"You did good in there Lopez" Dr Rhodes tells her.
"Thank you"
"Any plans for the rest of the evening?"
"Dinner with my girlfriend and then probably just relax with her" Santana shrugs.
"Well you deserve it. Great work today"
KNOCK KNOCK
Santana rushes to the door to open it, as she does she finds Quinn standing there.
"Hey" Quinn says as Santana opens the door to let her in.
"You look hot" Santana blurts out after seeing what Quinn is wearing. "Are you sure you don't want to skip the meal and just head straight to bed" Santana playfully suggests.
"As much fun as that sounds it doesn't work well on taking things slow"
"Damn, there really is no way around this whole slow thing is there?" Santana asks.
"Nope, now come on or we will miss our reservation"
"Wait" Santana stops Quinn from making her way out the door
"What?" Quinn turns around.
"I want retract my 'you look hot' statement" Santana says to which Quinn scowls.
"What so I don't look hot?" Santana shakes her head. Before Quinn can respond again Santana stops her.
"You look beautiful"
Quinn can only smile at her, Santana always surprises her. She loves this side of Santana that she can see, the sweet, amazing and kind person.
"Wow this place is nice" Santana says as she walks into the restaurant looking around at the scene.
"Table for Fabray" Quinn tells the waitress. The waitress nods and starts to lead Quinn and Santana off towards there table. As they get there Santana stops Quinn from sitting down and instead pulls her chair out for her to sit in.
"Why thank you"
"So can I get you anything to drink?" The waitress asks. Quinn can't help but notice how the waitress takes an extra-long glance at Santana.
"I'll have a sparkling water please" Santana says as she's driving.
"Anything for you Hun" The waitress flirts to which Quinn scowls. "And you?"
"I'll have a white wine, Hun" Quinn mimics back. As the waitress leaves Quinn turns her gaze back to Santana who has an amused look on her face.
"What?"
"Oh nothing I just like seeing you all jealous"
"I wasn't jealous, I was just merely noticing that she was not acting professional" Quinn excuses her actions.
"Whatever you say Q" Santana smirks. Quinn's totally jealous and Santana loves it.
"Here are your drinks" The waitress comes back and places their drinks in front of them. Quinn takes this moment to grab Santana's hand from across the table to get the point across to the slutty waitress that Santana is taken. Santana immediately complies and joins their fingers together playing along with Quinn's plan.
"I'll give you a couple minutes to decide what you want to eat" The waitress frowns as she sees their joined hands.
"That's okay im ready to order. How about you babe?" Quinn asks Santana.
"Yeah im ready"
"Okay then"
"I'll have the blackened Cajun chicken Caesar salad" Quinn orders first.
"And I will have the pollo pesto please" Santana goes next.
"Okay" The waitress leaves them.
"Totally jealous" Santana points out smiling in return Quinn shakes her head lightly while returning Santana's smile. "You don't have to be though, im all yours"
"All mine?" Quinn asks and Santana nods.
"Are you staying over tonight?" Santana asks Quinn as they walk up the stairs to Santana's apartment.
"Do you want me to?"
"Yes"
"Then I will"
They both get to the door and Quinn stops Santana before she can open the door.
"What?" Santana asks confused as to why Quinn stopped her.
Instead of answering her Quinn leans forward and captures Santana's lips with her own in a delicate small kiss.
"What was that for?"
"Well this was kind our first date so it's only right that you get a kiss at the end of the night" Quinn says.
"You're so corny" Santana teases her.
"You love it"
"I had a really good day" Quinn speaks into Santana's neck. They are currently lying on the bed cuddled up in the same position as they were last night.
"Me too" Santana agrees. She likes having Quinn here in her arms, this is the best part of her day.
"I really like being your girlfriend" Quinn tells her.
"Me too babe" Santana agrees again before she moves her head to the side to look at the clock. 11pm. They should probably get some sleep as they are up early again in the morning. That's just the life of a doctor and they both love it.
"Goodnight San" Quinn sleepily says.
"Night Q"
