Santana p.o.v

"Santana let me in" Rachel tried again, so reluctantly I moved away from the door letting her in.

"Hi" I mumbled not wanting to face her.

"Are you ok?" she asked …

"Do I fucking look okay?" I yelled "sorry" I spoke again quieter. I didn't mean to snap I just, Brittany.

"It's okay … look Santana I know you love Brittany, and I can tell by you just giving her mum a beat down that you would do anything for her." Rachel started

"I would" I said wholeheartedly

"Remember you broke up with her, you thought it was for the best but it wasn't, well that's what she is doing right now."

"I just need to get through to her … I don't want her to do this". I spoke looking into my hands trying to think of something, anything to get her to realise that all I want is her.

"Fix it then" she said simply "if you love her like you say you do … you'll find a way"

"Thank you" I stated simply and thoughtfully. I have to admit she was super annoying but right … usually right.

"Hey and Santana… I forgive you" she paused before walking out of the room.

Part of me thinks it would be easier, easier to leave and never come back. To forget Brittany and forget all the hurt and drama that comes with being with her. I'm her teacher, surely that's not right… but love is never easy.

For some reason I fell in love with Brittany, probably the same reason that I can't fall out of love with her. Walking away … it's just too hard.

Suddenly I thought of an idea … to make her realise just how much she means to me.

Quickly running out of the room I saw her; I saw Brittany sat in the middle of the living room just looking lost, sad, scared and upset. It broke my heart. I hope she wasn't like this when we broke up last.

"Rach I may be asking too much … but I need your help" I stated pulling her into the kitchen.

5 minutes later we had gone over, and over and added in extra things just because it's Rachel and after another 20 minutes we finally came up with a plan that me and HER agreed with.

"Okay so plan commencing now … I'll bring her at 19-00 hours" Rachel said secretly

"Rach its Brittany not a military operation" I replied sarcastically, this girl was all kinds of weird.

"Fine, see you later and don't fuck it up!" she spoke before leaving me.

Brittany p.o.v

I need to do this, I can't let san give anything up for me. She could lose her job … how could I be responsible for that. I need to do this … for her.

"Hey Britt" Rachel came up behind me giving me a peck on the cheek.

"Hey" I sighed and turned round.

"Britt get your head out your ass"

"Excuse me" I spoke shocked, Rachel never spoke like that.

"What the hell are you doing thinking of going on that date" She spoke sternly.

"Rach I don't expect you to understand" I started

"No I don't bloody understand Brittany, you were devastated when she left you because she thought she knew what was best and now you're doing the exact same fucking thing!" she yelled

"Rach I –"

"No I'm done talking now come on were going out" she commanded

"I'm not going anywhere" I stated firmly

"Don't even test my patience today unless you want me to murder you with one of my Barbra Streisand cd's"

Reluctantly I dragged myself out into the car only for her to take me to a … what is that – a dance studio.

"Rachel what are we doing here?" I questioned, I am so confused right now what the hell is going on.

"Just go in Brittany you'll see when you get inside" she spoke.

Cautiously I pulled myself out the car and walked inside.

"Wow" I looked in awe at the whole place lit up with white twinkling lights.

"You had an accident stopping you from becoming a professional dancer, and your mum is one messed up woman who has treated you wrong for so many years. You want to be perfect Brittany but no one is perfect. Sam Keen said you come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly.

"San" I spoke shocked but was cut off again.

"Britt it's hard for us … and I get that because I am your teacher but here's something else: there is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness. I believe there's a reason for us Brittany, a reason for our love and if we don't fight it then all of this. You and me would have been a waste of time." She spoke so softly, so sincerely that my heart was melting as she pulled me over and started to play the music both of us slow dancing together, looking at our hands … they fit perfectly.

"I've made mistakes Britt and so have you but I don't regret the things I have done or the things I have chosen not to do, because whatever I've done, I must have done something right because I ended up with you.

Brittany the day you told me you loved me was the happiest I've ever been, you have no idea how thankful I am of you because there are millions of people in this world and yet you have chosen to let me love you" she leant in and pushed our lips together in an explosion of passion.

It wasn't rushed

It wasn't rough

It was a promise

It was safe

It was home.

"I love you Santana, I love you so much and I just … I know I'm indecisive. But you were willing to give up your love for me so that I could have my career San. I just I thought that was so brave and I wanted the same for you, but I love you and call me selfish but I can't go on that date with Artie because no matter how many dates or how many people ill only ever love you" I didn't notice I was crying until she started to kiss away my tears.

"You have no idea how happy I am to hear you say that … Britt can I ask you something?"

"Of course you can baby" I spoke softly into her ear stroking the side of her face I saw her tense appearance fade away.

"Do you … do you think I could make it. You know if I like started my own record label or something to do with music? … honestly do you think I could?" I could tell she was hesitant but I didn't get why.

"Of course you would San" I spoke excitedly picking her up and spinning her around "I can imagine you up there with Elton John and all sorts … you're a musical genius San."

"If you got a chance would you do anything with dancing again?" looking directly in my eyes I couldn't not be honest.

"Of course I would, even if it was just to teach kids I would still love it. No matter what dancing will always be my passion. But I could never do it, a wasted dream I guess" I finished looking down; I would never be able to do that in a million years.

"But what if you can?" I saw her do her sexy smirk as she pulled a pair of keys from her pocket.

"San what's going on?" I asked

"Well it was supposed to be one of your Christmas presents but I can't wait so … Britt this is your studio, I bought it for you because I believe in you. I'm thinking you could start a dance school, what do you say?" she asked nervously

"On one condition" I stated seriously,

"Anything"

"Move in with me" …
