Chapter 10
Santana's POV
"Hey, how was your date with Brittany?" Quinn asks smirking at me as I walk further into the apartment.
"It was fine" I reply before going into my bedroom. Of course Quinn ends up following me, being the nosy bitch that she is she probably wants to know more about the date.
"Just fine" Quinn replies. "I need more details than that" Quinn says sitting down on my bed. "Will there be a second date? Did you girls have sex? Was Brittany the one that seduced you?"
"Not that it is any of your business but no we didn't have sex, it was a first date and I don't do that on first dates" I reply but Quinn just laughs. "I am serious Q, if I genuinely like someone then I won't immediately take them to bed. I do have some standards you know."
"Sorry" Quinn apologises. "Seriously though, how was it? Did she ask you out on a second date?"
"It was good fun" I reply smiling. "She didn't specifically ask me out again but I did tell her to pick me up the same time next week and she agreed so I take it we are going on a second date."
"Good for you girl" Quinn says before we end up in silence. I can tell that Quinn clearly wants to talk to me about something judging by the fact that she hasn't left the room and looks deep in thought. She looks like she is just trying to think of the correct words to say. "Can I ask you something?" Quinn says and I nod. "I think I like Brittany's friend Rachel" Quinn tells me but I don't say anything because I know she wants to say more. "Brittany told me earlier that since it was Rachel's last night before she flies home then she was having a group of friends over which included a few of her exes" Quinn tells me playing with my duvet cover. "Is it wrong of me to feel jealous?"
"Jealous of what?" I ask. "Jealous of the fact that Rachel clearly has wings since you said she could fly."
"You're an ass Santana" Quinn says and I laugh. "I am trying to have a serious conversation Santana, I thought you could at least be mature enough to give me five minutes of your time but I guess not." Quinn then stands up and walks to the door. "I knew this was a conversation I should have took to Mercedes, you really are no help at all. I very rarely ask you about my love life so when I do it obviously means I am serious, clearly you can't have an adult conversation unless it concerns your love life."
"Quinn don't be like that, I'm sorry" I apologise but it's too late because Quinn is already out the door. I decide it is probably best to leave Quinn alone for a bit until she calms down so I change into my nightwear and get snuggled up in bed to watch a movie. No sooner do I get into bed and my phone bleeps, indicating I have a text.
From Best-I-Ever-Had: Thanks for coming tonight, I had so much fun, hope you did too. Goodnight babe xx
'I really do need to change Brittany's name in my contacts' I think to myself before replying to Brittany's text.
To Best-I-Ever-Had: I had fun too, goodnight Britt.
After I send the text, I relax against my soft pillows with a big grin on my face, I really did enjoy myself tonight. Britt was like a different person but the same person if that makes sense, I mean like she was the Brittany I know but she wasn't as flirty or constantly trying it on with me, she was actually pretty down to earth and genuine tonight. I really hope to get to see more of this side to Brittany, it was kind of refreshing in a weird way.
I woke up a little too late this morning so I hurriedly take a shower and get dressed for going to university before heading out of my bedroom in search for Quinn to see if she is ready to go yet. "Are you ready to go Q?" I shout from the living room. "I am desperate for my coffee fix and we're already late as it is so we can't risk there being a queue at Starbucks."
"Are you sure it is just the coffee fix you are desperate for and not the flirty waitress?" Quinn asks me raising an eyebrow. "I am sorry for storming out like a baby having a tantrum last night."
"I am sorry for being immature" I reply. "I know it is no excuse but I didn't really think you knew Rachel well enough yet to suddenly feel so strongly about her, she's only been here just under a week. It normally takes you about two months of dating before you develop strong feelings for someone."
"I know but something just attracts me to her" Quinn replies. "She's different, as clichéd as that sounds."
"I understand what you are saying" I reply as we leaves our apartment and make our way to university. I feel the exact same way about Brittany. After a relatively short walk we make it to Starbucks just in time to beat the queue of coffee craving professors who normally accumulate around quarter to nine.
"Good morning beautiful" Brittany says when we approach the counter to give our orders. "And you Santana." Very funny Britt, very fucking funny. Take me on a date one night and then the next morning call my best friend beautiful and not me, very clever. "What can I get you ladies this fine morning?"
"Someone's in a good mood" Quinn says smiling at Brittany. "I will just have my usual" Quinn says before turning to me. "Do you want your usual too?" she asks and I nod.
"Sitting in today?" Brittany asks and both Quinn and I nod. "No problem, if you want to take a seat then I will bring it over."
"Thank you" I reply before following Quinn to a table. "Who are you texting?" I ask as Quinn suddenly starts rapidly texting on her iPhone. I receive no answer though so my guess it is someone special. "Q… what has got you so enthralled on your iPhone?" I ask but still don't get an answer so I decide to grab the phone from Quinn's grip.
"Santana, don't do that" Quinn snaps at me, snatching back her phone.
"Chill" I say. "You weren't answering me so I was just trying to see what was so interesting on your phone."
"Here we are" Brittany says interrupting our glaring competition by placing our orders in front of us.
"So what's been happening?" Brittany asks sitting down next to us. "Any news?"
"Not much really" I reply. "Apart from the fact that Quinn is in a mood because she has a crush on Rachel but never got the chance to tell her" I say smugly. That's what you get for snapping at me honey.
"Yeah and Santana is also in a mood because she went on a date last night and there was no sex involved" Quinn says causing me to glare.
"Are you guys playfully joking or are you both actually in moods because of what you just said?" Brittany asks. I go to answer her but Quinn beats me to it.
"You didn't put out for her Britt, it's as simple as that" Quinn says smiling at me.
"That isn't true" I say quickly. "We are only trying to annoy one another. I said Quinn was in a mood because I was trying to get her back for snapping at me two minutes ago and Quinn said I am in a mood because I didn't get sex because she thought she was being a smartass trying to stir things up."
"Ok" Brittany says nodding. "Rachel is coming back to visit with Tina and Puck in three weeks and if we go on enough dates Santana then I may consider letting you into my pants" Brittany says. "So that means Quinn can tell Rachel about her crush and Santana can get sex, sound good." I don't reply and neither does Quinn, probably because we don't know how to. "Anyway, I wondered if you two wanted to go out on Friday night and Mercedes obviously, we could hit a few clubs."
"Sure, we should invite Tanya and Jessica too, maybe Kurt because he is one of the girls too" I suggest but Brittany just nods unenthusiastically. "If it is not ok then just say Britt."
"I don't mind you asking the others but I am not sure I want Jessica there" Brittany says.
"Why not?" Quinn and I both ask at the same time.
"I don't want to sound dramatic or anything but I don't feel particularly comfortable with Jessica coming" Brittany says. "I just know it will make things ten times harder for me than they already are" Brittany continues but I feel really confused, why would Jessica coming make things harder for Britt. "Inviting the girl who has a crush on the same girl I do is a little awkward. I will fight for you Santana but I really just want to enjoy some time with my friends not spend it vying with someone else for your attention."
"Jessica doesn't have a crush on Santana" Quinn says laughing. "Right?" Quinn asks me and I nod.
"Britt, Jessica doesn't see me in that way" I say. "She's in love with her ex, she only made it seem like she had a crush on me because she had got it into her head that you liked me so she did it to try and prove to me that you would get jealous..."
"Guess who…" a woman says, placing her hands over Brittany's eyes, interrupting me from my sentence. 'Who the fuck is this bitch?'
"Oh my god" Brittany says turning around to the woman. "Melissa… what are you doing here?" Brittany then stands up and hugs the woman. The hug lasts a little too long for my liking so I casually cough, to clear my throat obviously, and partly to get Britt's attention. "Sorry" Brittany says pulling away from the woman and looking at Quinn and I. "This is my friend Melissa from university… Melissa these are my friends Santana and Quinn." We all say 'hi' to each other before Melissa sits down at the table with us.
"So what's been going on with you honey?" Melissa asks Brittany.
"Not much, still living in the same apartment, still waiting for my dream job to turn up and I'm just working away" Brittany answers. "What about you? What is going on with you, are you still dating Alan?"
"Alan and I broke up but I don't really care, I've got better things in my life now" Melissa says. "I've got my dream job, married to a billionaire and I've got Benny my Chihuahua."
"Oh, you're married?" Brittany says.
"Yeah, his name is Alfie and he is eighty-two" Melissa replies.
"I'm sorry, I think I misheard you. Did you say your husband was 82?" Quinn asks, ineffectively taking the words right out of my mouth.
"Yeah, have you got a problem with that?" Melissa asks with attitude.
"Nope" Quinn replies before turning to look at me, giving me a 'what-the-fuck?' look.
"Anyway I better go honey, we should catch up sometime" Melissa says to which Brittany nods before they say their goodbyes and Melissa leaves.
"Definitely not meeting up with her anytime soon" Brittany says. "She used to be a good friend of mine until she dropped me for all her wealthy friends. She's so obsessed with money so when she found out I couldn't afford to go travelling to different countries and to stay in five star hotels with her then she ditched me." I comfortingly squeeze Brittany's knee. "Never mind though, people like that are not worth bothering about" Brittany says smiling at Quinn and I. "Time for me to get back to work, I will talk to you girls later" Brittany says, standing up. "Thanks again for last night Santana." Brittany then leaves to get back to her shift.
"I bet you anything, she will be your girlfriend sooner than you think" Quinn says smirking at me.
"Shut up and finish your drink, we need to go soon" I say to my best friend, ignoring what she just said even though I know deep down that it is probably true.
Brittany and I had our second date last night, which must have been the best date I have ever been on. Firstly we went out for dinner and then she took me on a really nice walk. I am not usually one for going out on walks or anything like that but it actually seemed quite romantic plus it gave us a chance to get to know each other even better. After last night I definitely want a third date but I think it is my turn to set the whole thing up.
After going to Starbucks with Quinn this morning, I decided to come back home and do some studying there since I had no classes today. Just as I get started studying the doorbell rings and as soon as I open the door I get the fright of my life when I see who is standing opposite me. "Mom…what on earth are you doing here?" I ask shocked. "Is everything ok? No one is ill or anything bad like that are they?" I question, automatically panicking. My mother has come all the way from Ohio to California, which is not something you would see people doing every day so I automatically assume something is wrong or something bad has happened.
"Everything is fine sweetheart" my mom responds. "There is no reason to be so dramatic Santana."
"Excuse me for caring about my family's welfare" I say pissed. "Remind me not to give a shit in the future about anyone's health."
"Do not use that language around me Santana Marie Lopez" my mom sternly warms me. "I am merely here to check up on you and see how you are doing." My mom then invites herself inside the apartment.
"You saw me at Christmas time mami, which happened to be only a matter of weeks ago" I reply. "I am not saying it isn't good to see you or anything but you could have called and saved yourself the bother and expenses of travelling here" I say. "Did papi come with you?"
"Goodness…no" my mom replies, waving the idea off as if it is absurd. "There is no way your papi would have time off from his hectic schedule to accompany me here."
"The visit is rather impromptu" I say. "Since you are here, can I make you any lunch or get you a nice cup of tea?" I ask. My mom is obsessed with mint tea so it comes in handy to have a box in the cupboard, not that I would expect her to turn up like this though.
"Actually, I thought you could take me out for lunch" my mom replies and I immediately panic inside. It is not that I wouldn't want to take my mom out to lunch but more the fact that she always wants to go somewhere fancy or posh that is super expensive. I am only a university student so I get very 'money conscious' meaning that I don't like spending a lot of money if there isn't a need to.
"No offence mom but I can't really afford big expensive meals" I say. "I don't mind buying you lunch though."
"I will pay for lunch honey, I just meant that I thought we could go out together" my mom replies. "We could go to that place you love… Moonbucks is it?"
"It's Starbucks and no offence mom but I think everyone knows it's called Starbucks" I say. "It isn't really a place that sells big meals though so you won't be able to get a three course lunch."
"That's ok, I just wanted a snack or something" my mom says. "Shall we go there then?"
"I suppose" I answer. I don't ever think I imagined my mom going to a place like Starbucks so I really hope she knows what she is in for, any place that you don't need to reserve a table is too common for my mom. We then make our way to get some lunch anyway.
"Hey babe, I didn't expect to see you here" Brittany says as I walk in. "Twice in one morning and last night, you just can't keep away can you" Brittany says while winking at me. "I wonder what keeps making you come back, the sexy waitress perhaps" Brittany says.
"She would like to think so but the real reason I can't keep away is due to the fact that I am addicted to coffee" I say.
"Addiction to coffee is not a healthy thing Santana" my mom says. I can't believe I actually forgot she was here.
"I know mother" I say rolling my eyes which Brittany seems to find amusing. "Britt this is my mom Maribel, Maribel this is friend, my Brittany." Brittany immediately starts laughing again. "I mean this is my friend Brittany" I say embarrassed. What the fuck was I saying?
"Nice to meet you Mrs Lopez" Brittany says politely.
"You too dear" my mom says smiling. I know she is smiling but I have a feeling that somewhere in that head of hers, there is a little wheel turning which is judging Brittany. "Do you work here a lot?"
"Yeah this is my full-time job" Brittany replies.
"Would you not have preferred to go to university since you are already on campus working here" my mom asks slightly frowning, once again making me embarrassed to be seen with her.
"I've done my years at university" Brittany replies. "I graduated with a degree in sports therapy a couple of years ago but have struggled to get full-time work as a part-time placement wouldn't provide me with enough income." There's my mom's smile again, I guess she liked that answer. "I actually have an interview next week for a sports therapy position, it's only 25 hours but if I get it then I can just keep working here part-time to gain some more work hours."
"Britt, why didn't you tell me?" I ask Brittany before pulling her into a hug. "This is such good news, it may be the job that you have been waiting for."
"I hope so" Brittany replies.
"Dinner is on me when you ace that interview and get the position" I say smiling. "I just know they will want to hire you immediately."
"Thanks Santana" Brittany says smiling. "Anyways, what can I get you ladies?"
"Orange juice and toasted sandwich for me" I reply before looking at my mom. "What would you like mom, they have mint tea here?"
"I will take a medium mint tea and the same sandwich my daughter is having" my mom replies.
"Are you sitting in or are these take out?" Brittany asks and I say we are sitting in.
"Do people actually get take outs from here, how can you use a knife and fork on the go?" my mom asks.
"Can you just quit trying to act like a snob, I am getting embarrassed by you?" I snap.
"You embarrassed me first, how do you think I feel having to try and come up with an excuse to everyone as to why you are no longer with your ex-girlfriend?" my mother quickly retorts.
"Very mature with the 'you embarrassed me first' comment" I reply sarcastically. "How about you tell people the truth, I know you don't like the truth getting in the way of a good story but sometimes being truthful is the best policy, everyone is doing it these days" I say, earning a glare from my mom. "Or better still, tell everyone to mind their own business and not be so nosy about my love life since it doesn't really concern them" I suggest before taking a seat across from my mom at a small table on the left hand side of the café, an area where I hope no one will hear any more of my mom's embarrassing but potentially offensive comments.
Quinn's POV
"I am going out ladies, don't wait up" Santana says smiling at Maribel and I before offering us a wave and heading for the door.
"No offence Mrs Lopez, but what is the real reason for your visit" I ask Santana's mom as soon as Santana leaves the apartment.
"Can't a woman come and see her daughter?" Maribel replies.
"Yeah but you live a little too far away to visit so unannounced without a valid reason" I say. "I have known you for a long time so I do know there must be a stronger reason than just popping by to see Santana."
"Grace called me, she told me that Santana was seeing another woman so I just wanted to come see for myself" Maribel answers. "Grace and Santana were perfect for one another so I came to try and get Santana to see that Grace is the one she should be with, not this other woman."
"Santana is going to be super pissed, you do know that right?" I ask. "If she finds out that you are interfering with her love life again then she is going to go crazy at you. You know what she is like Mrs Lopez."
"You have known me since you were in diapers Quinn so you can call me Maribel" Maribel replies. "I know I shouldn't be interfering but you saw how happy Santana was with Grace so I just want to see her happy like that again" she says. "Grace loves my daughter so I see no reason why they can't both figure it out, I mean what I have heard from Grace about this other woman Santana is seeing is not good things." Instead of saying anything, I nod along waiting for Maribel to elaborate a little more. "For starters this other woman is a waitress in a café not to mention the fact that Grace says that the waitress sleeps with a different woman every night." I'm about to say something to defend who I presume is Brittany, when Maribel starts talking again. "I know that this woman works in Starbucks so I think I am going to take Brittany out to lunch one day to see if she can give me some information on her colleague that is obviously trying to get my daughter into bed."
"Brittany?" I ask shocked. How does Maribel know Brittany… actually wait a minute, Maribel thinks Brittany is a colleague of the woman Santana is seeing. This seems a little messed up to me.
"Yeah" Maribel replies smiling. "What a lovely woman she is, Santana said she is friends with you all and I must admit, you girls know how to pick friends." Is this a dream or what? I can't tell if Maribel is being patronising or if she genuinely likes Brittany or not. "I don't want my daughter seeing a woman who works in a café full time so I need to devise a solid plan so that Santana can fall back into Grace's arms and I think my new friend Brittany is just the person to help me out… do you reckon she would be up for it." I just nod my head slowly for fear that if I open my mouth I will burst out laughing. There are so many things Maribel has just said that make me want to go into a massive laughing fit, I mean for one thing she just said her new friend Brittany. Maribel thinks her 'new friend Brittany' is someone she can trust to help her get Grace and Santana back together but she's completely unaware that Brittany will be the reason Santana will never get back with Grace.
"What would be so wrong with Santana dating someone who works full-time in a café?" I ask after mustering up the courage not to laugh in Maribel's face. I could have just stayed mute but I feel like I need to defend certain individuals due to Maribel's such strong comment. Clearly she thinks working full time and getting paid for it is not as good as going to university to get a degree, which is just absurd. Everyone should have equal validity in life no matter the career choice they make.
"There is nothing wrong with someone working full time in a café at all, I just meant that I think that my daughter needs someone who is more challenging" Maribel says while switching the kettle on. "People who work in low paid jobs clearly don't have a great vision on life, they are probably nice people but I am guessing they are choosing to just settle in a job rather than challenging themselves to go out and do something bigger and better."
"I don't think you should judge like that" I say.
"It is just my opinion sweetie" Maribel says. "Do you want a cup of mint tea?"
"Yes please" I say nodding my head. "Do you not think your opinion is a little harsh considering you just said that Brittany is a friend of yours yet she works full-time in a café?"
"Brittany has a degree in sports therapy, she is only working in a low paid job until she can get a full-time job as a sports therapist" Maribel answers. "I can see Brittany has plenty of vision."
"What if Brittany starting dating Santana, how would you feel then?" I ask out of curiosity, I may as well pitch it out there you know.
"Don't be silly" Maribel says laughing. "Brittany is as straight as they come, there is no way she would date Santana. She's clearly into guys." Maribel ain't the only one laughing out loud now. I really wanted to try and not laugh at her because it would be rude but you really can't just make a statement like that and not expect someone to laugh. I really don't know what happened the day Maribel met Brittany but I would really love to know because that is one of the most craziest assumptions I have ever heard, Brittany seems incapable of talking to Santana without adding at least an element of flirting whether it is through talking or actions. It has actually come to my notice a lot recently that Brittany seems very fond of touching Santana's arm but in a more than friendly way if you know what I mean.
Brittany's POV
"This is a nice surprise" I say when I open the door and spot Santana standing there.
"I hope it is ok that I am here" Santana says and I move to let her inside. "My mom has been getting on my nerves so I needed a break so I thought why not come and visit Britt."
"It's no problem, I'm glad that you are here" I say. "I was just about to make some dinner, do you want some?"
"That depends, what are you making?" Santana asks.
"Grilled chicken, steamed vegetables and wholegrain rice" I respond.
"I could take that as long as there is a sauce or something to go with it, I hate dry food" Santana says.
"I didn't plan on making a sauce but since it is you then I am willing to make an exception" I say, kissing Santana's cheek. "Do you want a glass of wine while I cook?"
"I never say no to a glass of wine" Santana replies smiling and then we both go through to the kitchen.
After cooking and eating we both head to the living room to watch a movie, Santana wanted to watch The Notebook but I managed to persuade her to watch Scary Movie 4. In my opinion the latter movie is rubbish but if I remember back to a few months ago when Santana told me that she hates scary movies then I think this will be the perfect opportunity for Santana and I to get a little closer.
"Are you sure you want this?" I say breathlessly, staring at the Latina woman currently straddling me. "I want to do this right Santana. Obviously I want to have sex with you but I need you to know that this whole dating thing is not about sex."
"Just shut up Britt" Santana tells me before pushing me down on the couch. "I know what I am doing and most importantly… I want to keep doing what I am doing." Santana then leans in and kisses me. If she wants to do this then there is no way I am stopping her.
Things turn heated pretty quickly as well as our clothes coming off like there is no tomorrow. I don't even register what is happening until I feel Santana's full plump lips around my cock. "Shit… Santana" I say when I feel her gradually take my member in her mouth. The more of my dick she sucks on the sexier the noise coming from her mouth is. "Fuck" I grunt out when Santana pulls away from my dick and gives me a sloppy kiss on the lips, allowing me to taste myself on her lips.
We kiss for the next while, our tongues sharing dominance and our hot naked bodies pressed together. "Your cock really does have a mind of its own" Santana says smiling. When Santana turns me on it is sorta hard for me to control my dick, it gets to the point where I am in pain if my dick is not attended to after some time.
"I know" I say, flipping Santana and I over so that I am on top. "I guess we just have to give it what it wants."
"What does it want?" Santana asks in that sexy voice of hers.
"I think you know what it wants" I say but Santana just shakes her head smiling. "Let me show you then" I say before lowering my dick towards Santana's entrance and slipping it in slightly before pushing in even further but slower. "It wants inside you" I say, gradually pulling my dick out of Santana's tight wet heat before pushing back in, repeating my movements a few more times before gathering up a steady rhythm.
"Yes… yes… yes…" Santana shouts out through ragged breaths. "That's it Britt… keep going." I steadily increase my rhythm again and again until I am pumping so fast that I lose any feeling, my legs turning numb. "Pull… out" Santana shouts so I do as I am told and suddenly I am shooting ropes of cum all over the area around us. When I look at Santana I see her shaking while involuntarily thrusting her hips, the sight is enough to make me cum again. Watching Santana enduring her orgasm winds up making me hard again, I am usually quite good at preventing myself from cumming too early but it has been a while since I last felt proper sexual stimulation so to say I was ready for it was a bit of an understatement.
I place small kisses all over Santana's jaw and lips before I pull her to lie on top of me, wrapping the blanket from the couch around our naked bodies. "That was amazing Britt" Santana says before closing her eyes.
"It really was" I reply while kissing Santana's temple. I think I am really falling for this girl and I have no idea how to stop; not that I want to.
A/N: Hope the chap was ok. Let me know what you think.
