After her encounter with Santana she felt a bit confused and she hates to have her mind out of place, so that night she found her self in bed with one on of her usual hook-ups. While she was having sex she was really absent, she was a little more pushing than usual, she wanted to know what happened, she wanted to know what's Santana's deal, why doesn't she want to sign for the transplant? Why she acts all happy when she's dying? Why is she in her mind?
Once she's done the girl made her notice her weird act, even if she appreciated it, but she didn't bother to answer, she just wanted to clear her mind, to have sex, meaningless and funny sex and to not think about her weird morning, but it was useless. She got dressed and leave.
She's buying food in the cafeteria when a known red hair comes to her for the usual sweet treat but Brittany rejects her, she has a "date", she walks away leaving the girl mouth wide open, date is word Brittany never use. The hospital player has a date?! She thought, she watches her goes away, rejecting sex, who could she possibly see?
"Where the hell are we going?! I usually don't slog on a date!" Santana says while they keep walking up the stairs.
"This is not a date and stop complaining, what are you? An old lady?!"
"Shut up! Are we here yet?!"
"Here we are" Brittany says opening a door, they enter an empty room with wall glass windows where you can see through the city.
"Wow" Santana says walking to the window looking around.
"That's it" Santana turns "Here you're meal" Brittany says taking the food she brought out of her coat and giving it to Santana while taking her usual apple with the other hand for her self.
"Are you joking?! Hospital food?! Did you ever have a date?!"
"You said you wanted lunch, not a date and here it is! Your food!" They sit on the table that was in the middle of the room.
"Well, I could always call it a date, not a really romantic one but.."
"No you can't, because when I'm on a date I don't leave cute girls disappointed.. ever!" Brittany says playfully and Santana blushes a little looking away trying to hide it, Brittany finds it so cute.
"Emh.. Do you come here often?" Santana asks.
"Just when I wanna be alone" Santana smiles to that.
"So no one else was ever here with you?" She smiles hopeful for a negative response and when Brittany shakes her head she smiles even more "Than I must be very special doctor Pierce!"
Brittany looks at her with a blank expression, what's really with this girl? She's doesn't get her, well she doesn't know her.. But she wants to, yes she wants to know her, she seems a really interesting person.
"What where you going to ask me the other day?" She tries to regain her self.
"Oh well.." She stands up and walks above the table, Brittany turns a bit her head, looking at her feet through her shoulder "I saw you talking with a patient's family, you had a poker face on, you were telling them he died and it seemed you felt nothing, I wanted to know if it's true, did you feel nothing? Or do you act cold to cover your feelings?" Brittany is taken back, she didn't expect it, not just the nature of the questions, but also about her attitude, she really doesn't get her.
"I.. We're trained to not feel anything, it's not easy, but it's what we are, doctors, we do our best, everything we can to save lives and if we fail, we know we did everything we could, so it's not about feeling"
"I don't believe you, I think I know the real reason, I'll let it go fir now" Brittany looks up at her and Santana is smiling softly.
"Okay, time to go back"
She stands up and offers her hand to her and Santana immediately takes it, she looks down at Brittany, at her blue eyes, she thinks they must be the bluest eyes that ever exist, Santana looks away and jumps down the table not leaving her hand, Brittany is looking away when she feels Santana let her hand go, just to see that she's fainting.
Santana wakes up in her hospital room and sees Rachel talking to the nurse, as soon as she sees her they start fighting, Rachel is like her sister, Santana smiles and that makes the other gir ever madder! Brittany looks at them from outside, she stayed there to be sure she was fine, but she didn't want to be found there once she would wake up or just to interact with her cousin. Her condition is getting worse. She walks away and thankfully she has an operation, she always feels better after one.
After hours she goes to the bathrooms and takes a long shower, the operation didn't help her, she could only think about Santana, she stays under the hot water doing nothing, she looks up so the water could come directly to her face.
"Something's bothering you?" Brittany immediately turns and sees a hot nurse in front of her, with just a towel covering her body "Can I help you relax?" She asks smiling.
Brittany still doesn't say anything, she just opens the little door that's separating them and let her in, the nurse kisses her, but Brittany is not there with her, her body is, but her head is absent. The woman trows her towel out and finally gets what she wants.
She's writing on a patient chart when she sees the red hair intern looking at her, she looks down avoiding her, she's getting a little pushy about being together, she doesn't get that Brittany isn't into relationship, she barely likes to hook up with the same person more than once. She keeps writing when someone appears next to her.
"Why are you avoiding your girlfriend?" Santana asks, Brittany closes the chart and turns to her.
"She's not my girlfriend.. What are you doing here anyway?" Santana smiles to her while chewing.
"Well she's looking at you with puppy eyes"
"You do too" She says rolling her eyes.
"I do not, I saw you two flirting often and get all cheesy you know.."
"I don't know what are you talking about, because we do not, I do not, I'm not interest in her or what she wants"
"Here she is, the famous player I heard about"
"Okay" Brittany takes her for her arm and walks her to her room "This is not a place of gossip around, we work here"
"I wasn't gossiping, I just.. I'm bored and you're no fun!" Brittany turns her so she could face her, she gets closer.
"Open your mouth" Santana immediately widen her eyes "Open it" Santana slowly opens it and Brittany takes the gum out of her mouth with her fingers.
"What the hell!"
"This is not good for you"
"Would you stop treating me as a patient?" Santana says getting angry and walking away from her.
"Then sign the contract to get the new heart, so I can treat you normal, you could lived normal"
"You don't understand this is normal for me, it's sad, to me be normal it means being in hospital, getting check ups and everything, I don't have friends or a life because I'm always here, it's me, it's nature will, if I have this body it probably means that I'm not strong enough, and going through that operation is gonna confine me even more, other time spent in hospital and more check ups. So I want to LIVE this time I have" She immediately changes attitude and gives her a smile "Well, maybe if you take care of me I could reconsider it" Santana comes back as cheerful and happy after have said such serious words.
"Don't joke about it"
"I'm not joking, would you operate me if I change my mind?"
"It's not my choice and I'm not your doctor so it's unlikely"
"What a shame.. I'm gonna get dismiss tomorrow, would you go on a date with me? I want to see you in something that's not your scrub"
"Wow such adult words to say!" Santana didn't mean to be flirty "Anyway I don't date"
"But I'm special remember? Whatever, give me your phone" Before Brittany can say anything Santana takes it from her pocket and adds her number and calls her self "Here" She gives it back "Now you have my number so if it's not for a date we could always call each other and if you forget I'll just remind you"
With that Santana smiles and leaves a speechless Brittany behind.
