"So where to Lucy?" I ask as she grabs my hand
.
"Nope, tonight is all on me San, I got this"
.
She says and I look at her, this is a first, she hasn't planned a date night since we were dating.
.
Wait. Is this a date? Should I tell Britt? Should I be doing this?
.
"Here we are!" She says and I look up
.
"We're eating here?" I ask and she nods
.
It's one of the fanciest restaurants in New York but seeing as how she's the DA I'm sure she has her connections.
.
"Thank you" we say as were showed our seats.
.
"Damn Q if I didn't know any better I'd say you were trying to woo me" I say and she laughs
.
"Please San, if I wanted to woo you I'd beat your ass in basketball at Dave and Busters"
.
I laugh "That was one time Lucy and the cheated!"
.
Okay listen to this bullshit. It was our first official date and I was nervous as hell because have you seen her? Anyways, I planned the date and took her to Dave and Busters, we played every game they had, since we're both competitive as hell we tied in almost every game except basketball. I was beating her and she knew it, so she leaned over and kissed me, causing the ball in my hand to ricochet off the glass and land on the table next to us spilling the drinks of the people sitting there. Needless to say she cheated...and won!
.
.
She laughs "Whatever you say San"
.
I watch her over my menu and it never ceases to amaze me that after all this time, everything we've been through, she still manages to take my breath away.
.
.
.
"Santana?" I hear and whip my head to my left
.
"Britt?"
.
"What are you doing here? Are you two on a date?" She asks pointing between the both of us
.
"No Brittany" Quinn starts "I'm simply taking Santana out to dinner as a thank you for letting us stay with her" I smile and nod towards Britt
.
"My friends don't take me to dinner looking like that" she points at Quinn
.
"What are you doing here anyways Britt?" I ask looking around
.
"Oh I'm here with my agent, going over the new tour schedule"
.
I nod "You're leaving again?" She nods
.
"Yep i sure am, we have to talk too. Maybe tomorrow when you're done with your date."
.
I can feel the jealousy seething from her but I can't really blame her, we really are on a date, fuck this is becoming a mess.
.
"Yeah Britt let's talk tomorrow"
.
She nods as she leaves the restaurant
.
"Sorry Q" I begin, she waves her hand at me
.
"I'm so sorry Santana, this is completely out of line, it really does look like a date and I didn't even think about Brittany"
.
"Wait" I interrupt "This is a date, right?"
.
She nods and blushes "It feels like one doesn't it?"
.
"I've dated you Q" I laugh "This is the fanciest date I've ever been on!"
.
She laughs "Should we go home?"
.
I put my hand over my heart in fake disgust
.
"Omg Q! You move fast don't you? Can we at least eat first?" She throws her napkin at me and laughs "You're ridiculous! You know what I meant" I laugh as I hand her napkin back to her.
.
"This is great Q,...besides...we've got tonight." I wink at her
.
"Who needs tomorrow?" She winks back and in that instant my heart melts.
.
.
We have so much history so many memories to choose from, it's overwhelming sometimes, being with her makes time stand still, almost as if everything else fades away and we are the only two people in the world.
.
"Where too next Q?" I ask as we leave the restaurant.
.
"I want to show you something San" she says as she grabs my hand, we walk a few blocks from the restaurant and I notice an art gallery
.
"Let's go inside" she says and I follow in suit.
.
"These are beautiful!" I say looking at each piece, this artist is truly gifted.
.
"Do you like them?" She asks and I nod
.
"Absolutely! Whoever took these photos are extremely talented!"
.
She smiles as she leans into me, I kiss the top of her head.
.
"This one is my favorite" I say pointing, it's a photo of Rockefeller center during Christmas
.
"I love that one too" she says "I'm going to go to the restroom okay san?" I nod as she walks away
.
"Excuse me?" I ask
.
"Yes ma'am how can I help you?" He asks me
.
"I'd like to purchase this piece if I may?"
.
He nods "Absolutely! Where are we delivering it too?"
.
I give him the address and pay before Quinn comes back
.
"Should we buy a piece for the loft Luce?" I ask her and she shrugs
.
"If you want San? Oh man it looks like the one you liked sold!" She says and I try to look disappointed
.
"It's okay let's find one we both like"
.
She smiles "I'd like that"
.
.
We end up picking 2 more pieces because we can't seem to decide, I pay for one and she insists on paying for the other. One is the New York skyline and the other is a spot in Central Park during the fall. They are beautiful pieces.
.
"Maybe you can put one in your new loft?"
.
I say to her and she shrugs
.
"That would be nice huh San" she smiles at me.
.
We walk a few more blocks before I realize we are home.
.
"Thank you for a great night Q, I had such a great time" I tell her as we stand outside the loft building
.
"It was the best night I've had in a long time, thank you San, and I'm sorry about Brittany"
.
"Forget about her" I say placing a piece of her hair behind her ear "I know I already have"
.
She looks at me, before I realize it she's kissing me and it's just like I remember, complete perfection. We move in sync like no time has passed. Everything seems to fade away, nothing matters anymore.
.
.
We smile as we rest our foreheads against each other trying to catch our breath, after a few minutes we make our way to the loft where we find all 3 girls asleep.
