--4 weeks later--

Door Slam*

"Go away Santana!" Quinn yelled as she closed the door to the apartment.

"Quinn! Stop!" Santana yelled entering the apartment.

"It's not what she made it out to be! I promise!"

Quinn went into the bedroom and locked the door.

"Ugh!"

--flashback 30 min prior--

The girls were at dinner when Santana went to use the restroom. Quinn was looking at the menu when someone sits down, she looks up.

"Nat? What are you doing here?" Nat has tears in her eyes

"Tell me it's not true Quinn. Tell me you're not marrying her" Quinn exhaled

"it's completely true but who told you?"

Santana walks up

"Umm what's going on?" She looks at both girls. Nat continues

"You and I we're together almost 3 years. We had the talk, I still stayed because I loved you. We made plans. You lied to me Quinn"

Quinn sighed

"I never lied to you. I just wasn't ready"

"Oh and now you're ready?" She looked at Santana

"And you. I'm surprised you're still here, where's Olivia Santana?" Santana's eyes shot to Quinn who was confused

"What are you talking about Nat, you already know Santana is with me" Natalie laughs

"Quinn has no idea does she?" Santana's face drops

"What's going on?" Quinn now looking at Santana.

"Go ahead Santana tell your fiancé what happened in your apartment 3 weeks ago!"

Nat sits back with her arms crossed.

"Babe can we talk somewhere else please?" Santana grabs Quinn's hand.

"What's going on?" Quinn asks as they walk into the bathroom.

"You're scaring me Santana"

Santana starts crying

"Quinn, I swear I love you and it's not what it looked like, she kissed me!" Quinn felt sick

"Who kissed who? What are you talking about?" Santana is pacing

"Olivia came to my apartment, when we were on hiatus, I was drinking and blabbing on about us and one thing led to another and she kissed me and I'm so sorry Quinn" Quinn stares at her

"Is that why you came over to my apartment the day we got engaged?" Her eyes tearing

"Yes! I wanted to tell you immediately but then you proposed and I couldn't lose you and I'm so so sorry!" She walked up to Quinn but Quinn stepped back in disbelief

"Don't touch me Santana" and she walked out of the restroom.

"I hope you're proud of yourself Natalie." Quinn huffed as she walked out of the restaurant

--End flashback--

Santana was pacing in the apartment

"Quinn! Talk to me!" Quinn stormed out of the bedroom

"Do you now understand why I was so against marriage! Because shit like this happens. Love ruins everything. I broke the only rule I had for you Santana, I jumped through hoops to be with you!" She begins to cry.

"Baby you have to know it meant nothing, I was heartbroken over us" Quinn looked up

"it was a fight not a break up Santana"

"How was I supposed to know what Quinn?"

"Wait wait wait!" Quinn stops

"How did Olivia know anything and why was she even at your apartment?" Santana's face says it all

"I called her" With that Quinn walked out of the apartment.

"Quinn? It's 2am is everything okay?" Rachel answered her phone

"N-no itsss not short stack, Santana cheated on me the day we got engaged" Quinn slurred

"Quinn are you drunk?

"Where are you?" Rachel was grabbing her shoes

"I'm at...where am I? Cuse me? What bar is this?"

"Quinn I'm coming to get you"

"I'm on the corner of 8th and 42nd" Quinn responded.

She was at the same club they would always go too before either of them were famous. Rachel stormed I'm looking for Quinn finding her at the bar.

"Let's go Q" she grabs her hand only to have Quinn swat it away

"There's no use Rach, it's over" her eyes began to water.

"Come on Q" She said as they left the bar. They were bombarded with camera flashes

"Quinn! Over here" "Where's Santana?"

"Is it true you broke up?"

"Don't listen to them Q, get in the car"

They rode in silence, Quinn stared out the window. As they reached Quinn's loft, Rachel helped her inside.

"Now start from the beginning "

Rachel said as she handed Quinn. water bottle

"And now we're here" Quinn ended the story

"Q I'm so sorry" Rachel said

"Are you sure you want to end it though? It sounds like Santana didn't initiate anything? And she did come to tell you?" Quinn looked at her friend

"Are you taking her side?"

"Absolutely not, you know I always have your back! I'm just saying look at all sides, Santana is the best thing to happen to you, we both know this, isn't it worth saving?" She grabbed Quinn's hand.

"I love her so much Rach, isn't that pathetic? She cheated on me and I still want to be with her"

"No Q, it's not pathetic, it's love, I think you guys can save this relationship but only if you want too, why don't you sleep it off and talk to Santana tomorrow." Quinn nodded as Rachel walked tucked her into bed.

As she was leaving she saw the picture Quinn had of Santana's Victoria's Secret show, Santana had signed it in lipstick saying

"I'd give it all up for you, I love you"

she smiled and let Quinn sleep.

The next morning

"Omg my head, I'm never drinking again" Quinn said as she tried to sit up, she grabbed the water bottle and aspirin that Rachel left her.

She headed to the shower when she saw the note in her picture, she smiled, picked up her phone and shot a text. She let the hot water run over her when she felt a set of hands wrap around her but she didn't turn around.

"I love you" she said as she kissed her hand but she noticed something was missing from a very important ringer. She turned around immediately to find it wasn't Santana.

"What the actual fuck Nat!" She jumped out of the shower

"How did you get in here???" She was stunned as she went towards the living room

"I have a key or did you forget? I figured now you're single, I'm single" Nat followed her out of the room.

"Are you fucking crazy? Why would I ever want to be with you!" Quinn snapped

"I am in love with Santana! I'm going to marry her!" When all of a sudden they heard the loft door close, Santana was standing there watching/hearing everything unfold.

"Santana " Quinn said breathlessly. Without another word Santana walked past Quinn

"Son of a bitch my eye!" Nat clenched her face

"I think Quinn has made it more than clear where she stands so I suggest you get the hell out" Santana was face to face with Nat.

"You're going to pay for that Lopez" Nat said as she grabbed her things and left slamming the loft door.

"Babe, I know how bad this looks but I promise you..." Quinn rambled

"You can stop talking Quinn" Santana turned back around

"I believe you."

Without another word Quinn kissed Santana like she never had before.

"One thing Q?"

"Anything " she responded

"Change the damn locks please!" Quinn laughed.

"Are we going to be okay San?" Quinn asks as she hands Santana her glass of wine

"Thanks babe" she says as they sit on the couch and wraps her arm over her shoulders.

"I love you San, I'm in love with you and I've never been able to say both of those words let alone mean them to anyone else, I think what we have is special" Quinn says as she wipes the stray tear away.

"I feel the same way Q and I don't want us to lose this over something so petty"

"Marry me Santana" Quinn gently kisses her

"I would marry you right now Q, there's no one else I want to be with"
