The Arrangement

Disclaimers: I do not own any part of Glee or its characters. This is purely for pleasure I get nothing else for this. I also do not have a beta so all mistakes are my own.

A/N: Just a quick note. I know I posted chapter 5 twice. I re-read it and found some problems with it so I deleted it and reposted it. It's all good now I think. Anyway, on to the next...

Chapter 6

As they made their way down their corridor and out of the house Santana still marveled at the sheer size of the place. Their wing held their suite that was connected by the sitting room and a huge bathroom. There was also several other rooms other than the ones they use for the kids, the gym and their music studio that weren't even used. The only other room there that was used was Rachel's office.

The main floor had so many rooms you could get lost down there. There was even a ballroom that was so amazing. After talking with Barbra and Rachel it was decided that that was where they would have their wedding. They would be married the day after Christmas and fly out that night to New York to get the license signed making it legal and have a little honeymoon in the Hamptons. There was also a conference room and a few other studies besides the one she had seen her first time there along with the den, living room, two dining rooms and kitchen.

The only places she hadn't seen were the rooms in Hiram and Leroy's wing. Rachel had shown her the door that led to their suite and the only rooms she'd actually seen was Hiram and Leroy's offices in case she ever needed to find them. Barbara's rooms were also in this wing. She'd seen those a lot since Barbra liked to plan the wedding in her sitting room where they could spread everything out and leave it when they were done for the day.

As they came to the garage she smiled. Rachel was getting the Polaris. She liked riding in it. The first time Rachel had shown her the grounds they had taken the Polaris out because of the size of the area they were touring. There was a massive back yard and garden. They had Tennis and Basketball courts on the west end of the grounds. The outdoor pool was on the east end with a pool house that was gorgeous, and housed the indoor pool. There was also a greenhouse that had many beautiful and interesting flowers in it. Rachel told her that the greenhouse was Leroy's passion.

One of her favorite parts of the grounds though was the garden maze made out of hedges. Rachel had told her that it was there when they moved in. She had actually got lost in there the first summer they had lived there and wasn't found for almost two days. After that, she was required to have a guard with her at all times with a phone or walkie talkie, until she had the maze memorized. Rachel had made her promise to never go in without at least making sure she had a fully charged phone. She promised and actually spent a little time every few days trying to figure it out.

As they came closer to the back of the grounds Santana looked around trying to figure out where they were going. It looked like Rachel was heading straight for the back stone fence. "Where are we going?"

Rachel just smirked, "You'll see."

About that time a man came out of the shrubbery and pushed a place on the wall that caused part of the fence to slide open. She looked on in awe as Rachel waved at the man and drove through it. "This is the track," she said as they drove on to a paved path.

It was more like a road but it was in the cover of the trees and if you didn't know it was there you'd miss it. Santana looked around as they pulled off the road into a small clearing where there was what looked like an old style barn. After Rachel stopped the Polaris and turned it off they could still hear the sound of motors running and she just smiled as she got out and came around to help Santana out.

"The grounds keeper and I designed this place right after we moved here. I had to change how I acted in public, change my clothes and my makeup and mannerisms. I wasn't allowed to do the things I loved the most out in the open accept for singing."

She smiled as she opened the door and revealed that the huge barn was full of riding toys. There were motorcycles, dirt bikes, ATVs, go-carts, 4 and 3 wheelers and mini bikes. If it had a small motor you could probably find it in this room. There were also a few cars to one side by another door that led out.

Santana could only stare in awe. "Are these all yours?"

Rachel just nodded happily. "Mostly, there are a few that belong to Puck and Mike but the majority is mine. You see, no one would have believed little Rachel Berry would ride motorcycles and go-carts and stuff. The first place the people looking for me would look was the public tracks. Daddy told me I wasn't allowed to go but let me create my own so I could still ride and be safe. With all the tree cover you can't even see it from the air except for the barn that just looks like it belongs there and maybe a few glimpses of the paved track or some of the dirt track that just looks like dirt."

Santana smiled seeing the apparent happiness the place brought her. "I'm glad you didn't have to give it up. That would have sucked."

"Yea, the only down fall to having a private track is not having as many people to challenge. Puck and Mike are good but I'm better so I always beat them when we race. It would just be nice to have some fresh faces to race sometimes." She paused looking around then smiled. "There's the outer track that's paved for actual cars and motorcycles. Then there's the inner track that's dirt for the dirt bikes, ATV's, go-carts and such. The man that opened the gate lives here above the barn and maintains the tracks and the equipment. He likes the solitude."

Santana turned in place looking at all the toys bouncing slightly. "Which one can we ride first?"

Rachel chuckled grabbing her hand to pull her closer. "Have you ever ridden anything like this before?"

She just shook her head. "No but you can teach me. I'm sure you didn't just bring me out here to watch you have fun."

"No it didn't. I think for your first time the 4-wheeler may be our safest bet to get you used to the controls and things. I'll teach you to ride everything in here eventually if you want to learn."

Eyeing the Camaro off to the side she smiled slyly. "Even the cars over there?"

Rachel laughed and nodded. "Even the cars but you have to promise to be careful. Those don't have regular engines in them. They have racing engines and have been souped up. They are not even street legal anymore."

They moved over to the 4-wheelers and before they could say anymore they were no longer alone. "Awe Rach, why did you bring her here? Wednesdays are bro days."

Santana was about to rip into him but Rachel put a hand on her lower back to calm her. "Because she is prettier than you to look at and I'd rather ride with her. You and Mike go on and do whatever. I'm spending the day with San."

She sent him a glare and he just huffed grabbing his dirt bike and heading out with Mike giving them a wave as he followed.

Santana turned to her and smirked. "I love it when you put him in his place."

Rachel just chuckled and motioned to the 4-wheeler with a cooler bungie corded to the rack on the back. "Let's get going. I'll show you around the track then I want to show you my special place after that."

She put her helmet on handing one to Santana then climbed on and held a hand out to help as Santana climbed on behind her once fastened her helmet. "What's with the cooler?"

Rachel smiled as she started the 4-wheeler. "I thought we may get hungry or thirsty later."

Santana just shrugged and settled in. As her legs pressed against the ones in front of her and her body cradled her hips and ass Rachel had to stifle a moan as she felt her compression shorts tighten. God she loved it when Santana was close and this was the first time they had been this close. All she wanted to do was kiss her already.

Santana noticed the tightness in Rachel's muscles as she molded to her and leaned forward to her ear. "I'm ready when you are Tink."

She husked in her ear and Rachel's grip on the handle bars tightened as she just grunted and put the vehicle in gear driving it out of the barn. She drove it to an opening of a trail and jumped off to put the cooler on the ground then climbed back on and got on the track.

She looked over her shoulder with a smirk saying "Hold on," as she took off.

Santana squealed and wrapped her arms tightly around Rachel's waist. After a moment she was laughing and enjoying the speed as Rachel raced down the track. The first time she jumped one of the little hills Santana held tighter and cursed her for not warning her which just made Rachel laugh. By the third and fourth jump she was loving it.

When Rachel had made a complete run around the track twice Santana squeezed around her waist. "Can I try now?"

Rachel nodded and brought them to a stop. She jumped off motioning Santana to slide forward and she climbed back on behind her. As she slid into place and pressed her own legs into Santana's reversing their earlier position she felt her breath catch.

"Not so cocky now with the tables turned now are we?" Her voice had dropped an octave causing Santana's eye's to roll back momentarily but not to be out done she softly pushed back with her hips and rolled her ass into Rachel center, "No, still cocky."

This time Rachel couldn't stop the moan if she tried. "Sweet Jesus," she said as her hands tightened on Santana's hips.

Santana just laughed and Rachel slapped her leg playfully. "Ok enough of that. We do not want to give Puck a show."

They looked over at the boy who was watching them intently and Santana just smirked. "Why not, it just lets him know what's not his." She rolled her hips once more and Rachel about came undone.

"God woman you are going to be the death of me. Stop that." Santana chuckled but conceded and looked to where Rachel was now placing her hand.

Now that she wasn't teasing she had to control her own breathing as Rachel pressed her chest into her back leaning into her to explain the controls. God she had nice breasts, she just wanted to feel them bare in her hands. Shaking out of it she concentrated on what Rachel was teaching her so she could drive this thing and after a few more instructions they were off.

It took her a few false starts with the clutch and the throttle but she eventually got it and was racing down the track. Rachel had told her to stay off the jumps and she agreed not wanting to wreck but it was still fun. After a few runs around the track Rachel pat her hips to get her to stop. "Are you getting hungry?"

Santana nodded as she completely stopped. "Yes, I'm ready to eat when you are."

Rachel smiled climbing off the back as they traded places again. Rachel stopped to strap the cooler back on and she took off down the trail. Santana leaned into her, rested her chin on her shoulder, and tightened her arms around her as they moved through the woods.

This last month together had really changed her views of girl in her arms and the more they were together the closer she felt to her. The real Rachel was kind, giving, smart, funny, and talented in so many ways; also sexy and tempting as hell. After the initial shock of the arrangement wore off; she could honestly say that at this point it would not take much to fall for the real Rachel, her Rachel. She sighed in contentment and just snuggled in enjoying being with her.

Rachel was enjoying the ride as well. The feel of Santana pressed against her was heavenly and she loved it when she snuggled into her. It made her feel wanted and cared for. Rachel had given up the thought a long time ago that anyone could care for her with her condition. She figured that she would just marry whoever her papa picked for her and hopefully gain a friendship with her and if she couldn't stomach sleeping with her they could secretly have her inseminated later when they wanted children.

Now she was hopeful that she could have more. Santana had said during that first meeting that her anatomy wasn't a problem for her but they hadn't talked about it since. They had just been getting to know each other. Today hadn't been the first time that she had teased her in such a way and that made her think that she really did accept it. She guessed only time would tell.

This last month she had really gotten to know her Latina and really liked what she was learning. Santana was actually pretty amazing and they had a lot in common. The girl was also sexy as hell and never failed to set Rachel's heart thudding out of her chest, though most time she could mask it and not let it show. There was very little the girl did that didn't get her going and she had stopped herself many times from just kissing her and getting it over with but she hadn't thought that the time was right.

She was brought out of her thoughts by the hands running up and down her Abs absentmindedly and she started to wonder if she shouldn't rethink that soon. She smiled as she saw the clearing up ahead and sped up just a little bit. When she came to a stop she felt Santana's breath catch behind her. In the clearing was a beautiful pond surrounded by trees and flowers. There was a small dock with a little row boat attached to it and a little shed that had some fishing gear and swimming toys in it. It was the most beautiful place on the property and Rachel's favorite place.

Rachel came to a stop and climbed off removing her helmet. "This is my special place. Mostly I come here to just be alone. I'll fish or just lounge on a blanket in the grass. I love it here."

Santana took off her helmet looking around. "I can see why, its beautiful Tink." She handed her helmet to Rachel and climbed off herself. The nickname Tinkerbell had stuck after Izzy thought she was Tinkerbell and Santana called her that more often than not. At first it was irritating but now it just made her smile.

She walked over and unstrapped the cooler setting it to the side then opened the shed to pull out a few blankets spreading them in the grass. When she was done she looked over and Santana was standing by the water just looking out so she walked over and placed her hands on her hips from behind, "Penny for your thoughts."

She just smiled and leaned back into her causing her to wrap her arms around her. "It's beautiful out here. Do you and the guys come out here and go swimming and fishing a lot?"

Rachel shook her head. "No, I don't bring anyone out here. It's my special place."

Santana turned in her arms and eyed her curiously. "Then why did you bring me out here? You are entitled to have your own space you know. It wouldn't bother me."

Rachel shrugged and smiled. "You're not just anyone. Besides I wanted to share it with you." She looked away. "I guess that was stupid huh?"

Santana's heart melted at the admission and she pulled her face back to look into her eyes. "No, it's not stupid."

They shared a smile and Rachel pulled her close for a hug and just held her. Santana just tightened her arms allowing herself to be held. After a moment Rachel pulled out of the hug and took her hand guiding her to the blankets and sat.

She opened the cooler and started pulling things out. "I figured a little picnic would be ok. I made some sandwiches and packed the pasta salad from last night that you liked so much. There're some pickles and your breadstick that were in the fridge too."

Santana smiled at the thoughtfulness of her Rachel and leaned forward to kiss her cheek. "Thank you."

Rachel blushed crimson and started handing things out. Santana just smiled at the adorableness of it and settled back on the blanket. They fell into conversation of this and that not really caring what they talked about just enjoying the others company. Soon the food was gone, the cooler was repacked and they were lying side by side looking up to the sky just quietly enjoying the day.

Santana looked over and studied Rachel's profile for a moment. "Can I ask you a question?"

Turning her head she smiled. "You can ask me anything."

"Why did you date Finn? I mean you told me that you've always know that you wanted to date girls but you've only dated boys."

"It was all part of the Rachel Berry experience. They were all beards. I chose Finn because he was stupid and easily manipulated. Quinn needed away from him during babygate because it was only right that he know the truth and she needed that extra push to be honest and really deal with it all. After the babygate shit he never treated her the same way. He wasn't that good of a boyfriend before, and after he was even worse. He wasn't good to either of us and I know she deserved better. He also would never push for more than kissing when I said no."

Santana looked back up to the sky. "Why did you care about how he treated Quinn? Did you like her or something?"

Rachel chuckled hearing a hint of jealously and rolled over to lean up on her elbow. "No, I never liked Quinn as more than a potential friend. She just always seemed so sad. Even when she was slushying me it never gave her pleasure. Don't ever tell her I said this but I could see how haunted she was behind her eyes. I just… I don't know… it kind of broke my heart so I just tried to be her friend and help her see that she deserved better than that oaf."

They fell silent again but Rachel didn't move. She just studied her for a moment. "Can I ask you a question now?" She just nods so Rachel asks. "Why did you sleep with Finn or any of the others for that matter? You told me before that you realized the summer before sophomore year that you were a lesbian."

Santana turned back to look at her again. "Does it bother you that I slept with Finn or any of the others?"

Rachel thought for a moment and shook her head. "Not in the way you'd think."

Santana sighed. "I slept with Matt that summer. We had been dating and it just seemed like what happened next you know? But I hated it. Not just because it hurt, I mean he was as gentle as a boy can be their first time but it was more than that. I hated the way he felt against me, the way he smelled and how rough his body hair was and stuff. I talked to Britt about it afterwards and she told me that it was ok to feel that way. Her first time wasn't much better. After we talked she kissed me and I thought, this, now this feels good. After that I figured out that I liked girls better."

She took a breath looking away and Rachel just let her collect her thoughts. "I started noticing that I would admire girls more than boys and I panicked. I started dating all these boys and making out with them to try and make myself straight. I honestly only slept with two boys and one girl this whole time. I dated Puck for a minute before the whole babygate thing but I wouldn't sleep with him so he just told everyone I did. I didn't correct him because I wanted people to think I was straight so I just went with it."

She turned back to look at her once more. "Finn was a mistake. Coach was on us about dating younger men and I took it too far because I wanted to be on top. I couldn't let anyone find out about me and at the time I was head Cheerio. It was the most humiliating experience of my life. I mean I didn't care for him much. He was just my friend but I had given him something that I thought was special and he turned around in that moment and told me it meant nothing, that he felt nothing, like I was some kind of trash or something. I ran to Britt again after that and she calmed me down and told me how special I was. That's when I slept with her. Contrary to popular belief we've never been a couple but she's my best friend and she just gets me. She didn't sleep with me for any other reason than to make me feel as special as she told me I was. I'm grateful to her for that."

Rachel wiped the lone tear that Santana let fall and kissed her forehead. "I'm grateful to her too. That's what bothered me about it. I hate knowing that you did it because of how you were feeling about your sexuality. I'm glad she made it so you've had a better experience with it."

Santana smiled slightly and tucked a hair behind her ear. "Have you ever been with anyone?"

Rachel nodded looking out over the water. "Once, I was visiting in New York and I was with a friend from when I was younger spending some time together. One thing led to another and we ended up sleeping together. I found out later when I went to see her that she had just played me. I overheard her talking to some of her friends that she just wanted to know what it was like to be with a freak that she was just using me. See, she didn't know about my condition until after everything happened and it came out before Papa sent me here. That was last summer."

Santana pulled her back to look at her and wiped the tears that were now on her face. "I promise that when that happens for us that it will be because I want you for you and I care for you. I think of your condition as a perk. I get to have children with my wife that we will share completely and I still get to play with boobies."

Rachel chuckled and tried to look away but Santana wouldn't let her. "I will never use you Rach. I promise." She stated with conviction and tenderness all at once.

Unable to stop herself any longer Rachel leaned down and laid her lips to Santana's.

A/N: That's it for now. More soon.
