At 7.15 Santana's mum knocked gentally on the door before pushing it open. Santana had finally drifted off to sleep and had Brittany cuddled close to her. She shook Santana gentally, careful not to wake Brittany. Santana opened her eyes and blinked at her mother.

"I'm sorry mija, but its time to get up for school" Santana nodded.

"Ok mum. We'll be out of the house in an hour I promise." Mrs Lopez nodded and left the room as her daughter began to press kisses to her girlfriend's head waking her as gentally as she could.

When Brittany was finally awake they sat facing each other on the bed their legs crossed. Santana was holding Brittany's hand in her lap.

"I know you probably don't want to talk about it baby, but I really need to ask you some questions." Santana said carefully. Brittany nodded.

"Ok baby, will you let me take you to a doctor? We don't have to tell them what happened but I think you need to get an STI test and a pregnancy test just in case." She said.

"Will you come with me?" she asked.

"Of course I will. We will go in lunch today yeah?" Brittany nodded sadly, she really didn't want to go but she knew she had to.

"Ok, the other thing I need to ask is did you recognise him? Was he someone you know?" Brittany shook her head. Santana put her fingers under her chin and tilted her head so she was looking at her.

"Are you sure Britt? Cause no matter what even if he made you promise not to tell anyone you know you can tell me" She urged. Brittany nodded.

"I'm sure San. I promise" She told her. Santana squeezed her hand

"Ok baby lets get ready for school yeah?" Brittany nodded then she laughed causing Santana to quirk her eyebrow at her.

"I've just realised I have as many clothes and shampoo and face wash here as I do at home" She explained. Santana smiled and wrapped her arms round her waist.

"That's cause we are madly in love and couldnt possibly risk the horror of being apart" She said dramatically causing Brittany to giggle.

"I love you San." she said

"I love you too Brittany" the reply came effortlessly and Brittany leant forward and kissed her properly for the first time since friday. When she pulled away Santana's eyes were still closed causing Brittany to feel a deep sense of pride that she could do that to the fiery Latina and she moved away getting dressed. When they got to school Santana took Brittany's hand in hers intent on showing her she would never let her go.

After everything she had been thinking about the evening before she knew Brittany needed her to be calm and to love her and not let her own emotions take over but as they walked into home room and she saw all the Glee kids sat talking happily she couldn't stop the anger that rose up in her. They had all been there on friday when Brittany had decided she was going to leave. They all knew how far Brittany's house was from Rachaels yet they had all been too drunk to stop her or even try and tell her it wasn't a good idea. They could have stopped this happening but they were too happy in their little drunk on wine coolers not even real liquour world. Why wouldn't they look out for her? What just cause Santana always did didn't mean they shouldn't too it made Santana question the strength of their friendships and she felt herself slipping back into that freshman year mentality that her and Britt only had each other in this god awful school.

Even Quinn, she was supposed to be their best friend where was she when Brittany was wandering the streets at night? Santana was so focused on trying to calm her rage that she didn't realise she had stopped walking.

"San?" Brittany said quietly. "Are you ok?" Santana nodded quickly.

"Yeah I'm fine babe." she assured her "Sorry" she added for good measure.

She sat in her usual seat but didn't let Brittany sit in hers she instead pulled her down in her lap and wrapped her arms round her. The glee club assumed this was to prove a point to Artie but really Santana needed Brittanys weight there to stop her getting up and punching every last one of them. Brittany eyed her carefully and Santana was pretty sure she knew what she was doing as she smiled slightly before snuggling herself further into her arms. Santana didn't contribute anything to the conversation she was busy thinking. She really needed to get a hold of these emotions it wasn't fair to Britt and really it wasn't fair to anyone else.

The bell rang and Brittany jumped off her lap then held out her hand for Santana to smiled and pulled Brittany out of the classroom to their first class. It took Quinn a long time to get Santana alone. She was even more determined than usual to spend every available second with Brittany but when Brittany went to a meeting just before lunch Quinn cornered her.

"You two seem a lot better than yesterday" she said. Santana nodded.

"We are fine" she answered bluntly really not wanting to talk to Quinn, finding herself more annoyed at her than anyone.

"Did you find out why she.. you know.." she asked. Santana nodded. "and..?" She pushed.

"I dont think its my place to tell you Quinn. Its personal." she said.

"Oh come on Santana I'm your best friend, Brittany doesnt mind you sharing things with your best friend" she said.

"No, SHE is my best friend and there is no way in hell I am ever doing anything that would upset her and I'm pretty damn sure telling you would upset her. But piece of advice Q? before you wander around all high and mighty like you do. Best friends keep an eye on each other, keep each other safe. and with that in mind you are no friend to Brittany." then she stalked off leaving Quinn so very confused.
