A few weeks later, Both were able to help each other with their college applications and were able to submit on time. They spent everyday together which they usually do as if Quinn never avoided her best friend. Everything went back to normal and both were pretty happy about it. Quinn decided to lay low off the cheerios first until she receives the admissions to Santana's dismay.
Quinn was also starting to get annoyed by Brittany's antics who is being touchy with Santana as if taking advantage of the situation being without Quinn.
The Glee Club were busy preparing for sectionals next week. Santana pretty much got a solo which she was happy about. She'll be damned if she wasn't able to get one this senior year. Quinn was happy about it and pretty much supporting her bestfriend as she helps her rehearse whenever they have free time like now.
"So, how do you like it?" Santana asked hoping that Quinn liked it.
"Hmm, good enough. I guess" Quinn jokingly replied.
Santana gasped and playfully shoved Quinn. "Oh come on, Blondie you love my voice"
Quinn just stuck her tongue out and dug onto her back to retrieve one of her textbooks to finish her assignment that was due for the next week. Santana can't help but stare and admire Quinn because she was too adorable whenever she concentrates on studying. The way her she nods her head upon receiving new knowledge from the lessons or the way Quinn's nose scrunches when she's a bit confused on the topic at hand. Santana couldn't find a way to confess how she feels about her bestfriend in fear that it might ruin their friendship. Although she was hoping that she had the courage to confess before they graduate because who knows where they'll both end up in College right? Santana might end up in California or New York, and Quinn? Maybe in Boston, New York or New Haven heck she was sure Quinn will be accepted to all the Ivy League Schools she had applied in.
She was brought out of her daze when she felt Quinn nudge her a bit with a smirk on her face. "Hey, it's rude to stare you know?" Santana tried hard to hide her blush which was also noticed by Quinn. Santana shook her head telling herself that blushing was not her game because she was a badass.
"And it's also very rude not to stare at someone who is pretty much perfect you know" Santana winked and there she goes! She was very sure that Quinn was blushing furiously. Quinn didn't have a comeback for that that's why she just picked a paper towel and it threw it against Santana causing the Latina to laugh. After her laughter died down, Santana got up on her feet and held her hand out for Quinn to take so that they can go to the choir room for Glee.
"Come on, Perfect blondie, let me take you to class" Santana said. Quinn grinned and took her best friends hand and they both headed to the choir room. They took the back row seats and sat beside each other. As usual, Quinn moved her seat closer to Santana's and leaned on her best friend.
Santana whispered "Bet, the hobbit will talk and suggest nonsense that wont benefit the group but will only benefit her once Mr. Schue arrives" and Quinn just hummed in response.
A few minutes later, Mr. Schuester arrived. He wasn't able to settle down his things yet then here goes, yes you got it right Santana, Rachel who stood up and went straight to Mr. Schue. "Mr. Schue, I have a very good idea about sectionals i think it would be nice if we incorporate it for our act. And I think it would also be better if we use my voice in it for it to work pretty much."
"SEE!" Santana practically whispered into Quinn which caused the blonde to laugh hysterically because Santana was absolutely right. All the members of the glee club turned their heads including Rachel and Mr. Schue to see Quinn bursting out laughing which was soon followed by Santana.
Quinn was still clutching on her stomach trying to control her laughter and nudging Santana to stop as well. "Sorry, Santana just told me a story that was really funny" the others were also chuckling as well because they haven't seen or heard the Quinn Fabray lose it like that.
Mr. Schuester politely denied Rachel because their set list was already pretty much perfect. One group performance, one duet for Rachel and Blaine and one solo for Santana. and the song actually fits perfectly to Santana's voice which was pretty much agreed to by the whole club except Rachel and maybe Finn because of Rachel but he liked the song that Santana was going to perform. Plus the fact that she was the one who suggested the song that was agreed to by the others, it just seems right that she's the one performing it.
The Glee Club are all in the choir room for their final touches. Mckinley High hosted this year's sectional once again because they won last year. Santana was nervous not because she might not be able to sing it properly but because pressure is on them. They are the National champs and they should live up to the expectations of the audience. Not just that but she heard that the teams they're going up against are way tougher than the ones last year. She was pretty glad actually because they didn't have to go up against Vocal Adrenaline and the Warblers first although she was sure they're going to crush it.
She was also nervous because she was planning on confessing to Quinn once they won. She didn't want to wait anymore because the more time she keeps her feelings the more time for people to actually get Quinn's attention. The Green light was now blinking signaling to get ready. Quinn went to Santana and took her hands because even if the Latina wouldn't admit she knows that Santa was nervous. "Hey, you got this in the bag, Calm down and enjoy yourself" The Latina complied and smiled at her best friend. she was right. She got this.
The New Directions started with Rachel and Blaine's duet then the Group performance followed by Santana's Solo. People were up on their feet on the first act. It was loved by the audience as well as the group performance. Santana then took a deep breath and went to the center stage and started.
It was great at the very start
Hands on each other
Couldn't stand to be far apart
Closer the better
Now we're picking fights and slamming doors
Magnifying all our flaws
And I wonder why, wonder what for
Why we keep coming back for more oh oh
Is it just our bodies?
Are we both losing our minds?
Is the only reason you're holding me tonight
'Cause we're scared to be lonely?
Do we need somebody
Just to feel like we're alright?
Is the only reason you're holding me tonight
'Cause we're scared to be lonely?
Santana was feeling it. She was doing well and the audience was loving. they were all on their feet. The judges were also amazed at her vocal range.
Too much time, losing track of us
Where was the real?
Undefined, spiraling out of touch
Forgot how it feels
All the messed-up fights and slamming doors
Magnifying all our flaws
And I wonder why, wonder what for
It's like we keep coming back for more oh oh
Is it just our bodies?
Are we both losing our minds?
Is the only reason you're holding me tonight
'Cause we're scared to be lonely?
Do we need somebody
Just to feel like we're alright?
Is the only reason you're holding me tonight
'Cause we're scared to be lonely?
Quinn was amazed. She can't believe at how Santana's voice filled up the entire auditorium. The song was pretty much not their style but Santana did justice to the song. It's not just talent you can see from Santana's movements but you can also feel the passion in her voice and the love for singing that captivates each and everyone in the auditorium. Santana then belted out the last few lyrics to the song.
Scared to be lonely
Uhh huh huh huh...
Even when we know it's wrong
Been somebody better for us all along
Tell me, how can we keep holding on, holding on tonight?
'Cause we're scared to be lonely
Even when we know it's wrong
Been somebody better for us all along
Tell me, how can we keep holding on, holding on tonight?
'Cause we're scared to be lonely
Is it just our bodies?
Are we both losing our minds?
Is the only reason you're holding me tonight
'Cause we're scared to be lonely?
Scared to be lonely
Uhh huh huh huh...
Scared to be lonely
Uhh huh huh huh...
Eh, eh, scared to be lonely
The crowd erupted in applause and cheers. Quinn thinks that it has been the noisiest of all the times she heard applauses and cheers and all thanks to Santana. The cheers were not yet dying which meant that their set list was pretty much approved by the audience. When Quinn turned to look at Santana she saw that Santana was looking at her then motioned her to see the judges, and when she looked at the direction where the judges were seated, Quinn saw that they were as well on their feet together with the audience. Santana ran towards Quinn and hugged her.
"oh my god, San! you were so great! you just lost yourself in the moment! I'm so proud of you" Quinn stated.
"That was for you, Blondie, You calmed me down. Thank you very much" Santana wrapped her arms around Quinn. A few seconds later, the other members ran towards them and enveloped them in a hug.
A Few Moments Later
All the clubs were called on stage for the awarding and all Santana could do was grab Quinn's hand on hers and squeeze it.
"The third place goes to... Aural Intensity!" The New Directions sighed a breath of relief. One more to go Santana was talking to herself and praying very hard. The announcer started and everyone shut their eyes tightly praying and all their hands clasped with each other.
" And the Winner for this Year's Show Sectionals..."
" From Mckinley High, The New Directions!" Santana carried Quinn and spinned them around before hugging their teammates. Quinn grinned as she watched one of the judges hand over the 1st place trophy to Santana. She was very proud of the Latina. Quinn was just staring at Santana, she can't help the butterflies on her stomach while watching Santana. She was definitely head over heels crushing hard on Santana. Who wouldn't right? Santana was perfect.
Soon, Tana I will tell you how I feel. Quinn told herself before she went to the group and enjoyed their trophy. They all went to Breadsticks afterwards to celebrate their victory and of course as usual Santana and Quinn drove together to Breadstix.
