Both Dani and Santana were ravenous for food the next morning, their activities last night earning them quite the appetite. Santana threw a pair of shorts and a tank top at Dani for her to put on, unwilling to share her girlfriend's naked body with Quinn's eyes. As the two made their way into the kitchen it became apparent they weren't the first ones up.

"Hey Quinn, that smells delicious," Dani commented, the aroma of bacon flooding her nostrils.

"Why thank you Dani. Would you like some?"

"I wouldn't want to put you out..." Dani trailed off, desperate for Quinn to convince her.

"Nonsense." A smirk grew at her lips as she turned to Santana, "How about you San...San...SANNNNN?" Quinn asked teasingly, doing an excellent job of impersonating Dani.

Dani blushed furiously at the realization that poor Quinn had been forced to listen to them go at it round after round last night. It had been their first time together and both were eager to discover absolutely everything there was to learn about each other's bodies.

"So the sex is that good huh?" Quinn continued with her assault.

Santana nodded in the affirmative, not one to shy away from sex or a compliment, and that was exactly what she was taking it as. Dani on the other hand buried her face in her hands, more than mortified at the whole ordeal transpiring in front of her. The glare that she sent Santana's way was intended to let her know their sex life wasn't a point for discussion with housemates.

"What? Quinn asked. And besides...it's definitely THAT good. Especially when you did that thing where..." but Santana's voice was muffled now as Dani clamped her hand over her mouth. This was becoming a habit.

"Who knew I'd choose such a troublemaker for a girlfriend?" Dani mused out loud as the three sat around the kitchen bench, eating up everything on their plates.

"Troublemaker..." Santana began, "Eh yeah that sounds about right. But hey, you'd be bored with anyone else."

"Maybe. I did think Quinn was pretty cute when I first met her."

"Y-You did?" Quinn choked out, surprised more than anything.

"Yeah," Dani told her honestly. "At least you didn't want to kill me either, unlike this one," she said lazily pointing to Santana. "But you're not really my type, no offence, it seems I go for the crazy ones."

"Hey," Santana whined but was placated with a kiss on the lips that made her forget all her complaints.

"You two are so cute," Quinn said as she watched the two converse.

"Awesome yes, badass definitely, but cute...no, that doesn't work for me," Santana told Quinn.

A look of mischief was exchanged between Quinn and Dani. The two made good friends and partners in crime. Dani excused herself from her own seat and went to sit in Santana's lap. Santana's arms instinctively wrapped around the girl's waist as she held onto her tightly. Drawing her head back Dani spoke gently into Santana's ear.

"Baby, do you think we could go to the park today. I don't have much work to do and we could go for a long walk and I'll let you buy me ice cream." The sweetness was dripping off Dani's voice and Santana's walls crumbled at the sound of them.

"Of course, anything you want."

Dani abruptly stood up, Santana missing the contact they had just shared. On Dani's way to the kitchen she made sure to high five Quinn's raised hand.

"What was that for?" Santana demanded to know.

"For proving you are indeed...cute," Quinn told her before chuckling at the sight of Santana's grimace.

"Yeah babe, besides we can't do the park today, I've got a session at the studio." Santana pouted at that news, she had been looking forward to a full day with Dani, even if she would have been teased relentlessly for it. "You can come though if you like, Quinn too."

"Baby you made me cum enough last night." At Santana's words Dani dropped her plate and watched in horror as it shattered to the ground. "See," Santana said wrapping her arms around Dani's waist and whispering in her ear, "you're not the only one that can tease."

Quinn and Santana stood at the back of the room, trying their best to stay out of the way. They watched on through the window as Dani stood in the soundproof booth, recording her latest song. Santana watched Dani intently, taking notes of all her little idiosyncrasies as she reached for perfection. Santana loved the tone of Dani's voice, the incredible notes she could hit, and the beautiful lyrics that cascaded from her lips. She was in a trance as she watched the girl from afar and Quinn couldn't help but smile at her friend's fascination.

"You really like her huh?"

It took Santana a moment to realize Quinn was speaking to her. She reluctantly tore her gaze from Dani and faced her friend.

"I really do." Santana accepted. "It's crazy how quickly she has worked her way into my heart, especially considering all the walls I'd built up."

"I think it just takes the right person to tear them down. I like her, she's way better for you than Lauren."

"Don't I know it!" Santana laughed. Dani was everything Lauren wasn't; caring, considerate, accepting of both Santana's good and bad sides, patient, the list really went on and on and Santana hoped she didn't have to imagine a day in the future without her.

As Dani wrapped up her song, the producer happy with the last take, her eyes instinctively searched for Santana. It was funny how quickly Santana had become the person that Dani wanted to share everything with; every moment, every feeling, every experience. What she found in Santana's eyes made her heart swell, even from there she was sure she could see pride and something very close to love. She offered up a shy wave and her girl winked back at her. Yes, for Dani, life was very close to perfect.
