Chapter 11
The rest of the week flew by in preparation for school, Cheerios camp and Rachel's work with papa. It was now Monday the first day of Camp and all Santana wants is to shower, go home and snuggle up with Rachel. Since that first night she slept in Rachel's bed it's just been a silent agreement that that was her place now and she slept there every night. Tonight she would be so happy to fall into bed with Rachel and just pass out. She'd forgotten how much work it all was but she loves it. I didn't help that Quinn had been in extra bitch mode since they got there working them harder than was necessary but she just ignores it and pushes on. She and B were used to it.
The day was now at an end and the squad had been sent home. She and Brittany stay back as the girls all head off to shower and were helping put the equipment away when Quinn approaches them. "S you really need to up your game; you were kind of dragging today. Have you worked out at all this summer?"
Santana growls, "You know damn well that I work out every day."
Quinn shrugged. "I know you used to run by my house every day but you haven't done that in a really long time. You just spend all of your time over there."
Santana took a step toward her. "I work out every morning. First on the elliptical then on free weights then I go for a run or a swim. Every. Single. Day. The only time that has varied was the one day I slept at your house and just ran with you and B or when it has rained. On those days I ran the treadmill or swam in the indoor pool."
Quinn scoffs. "You don't have a treadmill or free weights at home and your pool is outside and too small for laps to do you any good. Just admit that you've been slacking off."
"I work out at Rachel's house with her every day. She has a home gym and an indoor and outdoor pool that are Olympic size and great for swimming laps. You have no idea what you are talking about so back off me. I did everything you've asked of us today and better than the rest of the squad."
Quinn huffs and crosses her arms. "I should have known it would have something to do with Berry. When are you going to see that she's just using you?"
Santana steps back and shakes her head. "When are you going to see that she's not? Rachel is my girlfriend and you need to just deal because that is not going to change. We've had this discussion so many times and it's getting very old very fast. Rachel isn't the problem here, you are."
Quinn starts shaking and her face turns red. "That girl is just playing you San, you have to see that. The second school starts and she totally destroys your reputation and your status she will drop you and laugh in your face. She doesn't care about you."
"No, you don't seem to get it. You don't know the real Rachel. She's tried all summer to get to know you and let you see who she is but you don't let her. You won't give her a chance."
Brittany steps up and puts a hand on Quinn's shoulder. "Q you really need to stop."
Quinn shrugs her off. "No, I'm tired of this shit." Throwing her hands in the air she steps right into Santana's face. "She doesn't deserve a chance San. She's a lying, manipulative, self-centered, egotistical, self-serving, annoying diva who doesn't deserve an ounce of your attention or affection."
Santana was seething. "You're wrong. Rachel is loyal, protective, sexy, kind, loving, devoted, and so much more. You don't know her like I do. She spent the last few years living a lie, portraying herself as something she is not. Rachel Berry is a character, a persona. I won't tell you all about that because it's not my place but just know everything she did in the last three years was for a reason, a damn good reason."
Quinn shook her head and laughed humorlessly. "She has you so snowed. I thought you were smarter than this S."
"I don't give a damn what you think Q, you obviously don't care about me half as much as I thought you did or you would accept what I am saying. I shouldn't have to justify my relationship to you. You are my friend not my mami, who loves Rachel by the way and so does papi."
"Maybe I should talk to them and let them know just what kind of person you are dating. A person who sends a small girl to a crack house just because she was a threat to her 'singing career'. A girl who does whatever is necessary to get what she wants, consequences and other people be damned."
Santana backs up chuckling, "What, you mean like you Lucy or me. We are not that different, we'd both cut a bitch to get what we want. The only difference is that Sunshine was a spy, the first time she was here and again during the night of neglect. Rachel figured it out, that's why she sent her to that inactive crack house and tried to tell us not to trust her when she came back." She held up a hand to stop her from replying. "I found that out last year. Kurt told me that he and Blaine over heard Sunshine talking to her coach on the phone right before she bailed on us."
She takes another step back trying to get some distance before she just smacked her. "Aside from that my parents know everything about her and me and how we are, or were, at school. You need to come to grips with your shit and back off or our friendship will never survive."
She turned to walk away but Quinn grabbed her arm and swung her back around. "I just don't get it. Out of all the girls in this school what the hell is it with you and that freak?"
She yanked her arm away from Quinn and slapped her across the face. "I love her goddamn it," Quinn gasps and Santana just shakes her head, "that should be all you need to know to have my fucking back! She's mine, get that through your head or get out of my life and if you call her anything but her name again we are done."
She turns to storm away only to see Rachel standing by Brittany, both with stunned looks on their faces. She blushes and steps toward her not sure what all she had heard. "Hey, let me shower and I'…"
She was cut off as Rachel pulls her into her arms kissing her soundly and she melts into her. Brittany and Quinn just stand watching still stunned at her admission. When Rachel pulls back she lifts Santana's chin with her fingers. "Are you ok baby?"
Santana nods and buries her face in Rachel's neck for a moment. Rachel just holds her until she steps back. "Ok, go shower so we can get out of here and Quinn and I will have a little talk."
Santana eyes her warily. "Promise no fighting."
"I promise I will not fight unless I am defending myself. Go get changed."
Santana gave her a quick nod, a lingering kiss and glares over at Quinn before turning and heading to the locker room. Brittany watches her go for a moment and decides she really didn't want to be here and followed quickly behind.
Rachel watches until Santana is safely inside then turns back to Quinn. "Ok, have at it. What exactly is your problem with me?"
Quinn turned back to her and scowled. "What are you playing at?"
"I honestly don't know what you are talking about. I'm not playing at anything."
Quinn scoffed. "Of course you are. For years you run after all these boys namely the boys that are mine or have been and now you say you are a lesbian. I find it hard to believe that you have any feelings for Santana. I think you are just trying to destroy her because of how she used to treat you and now you have ammo against her."
Rachel folded her arms over her chest and chuckled. "If I wanted to destroy someone over how I was treated it would have been you. She mostly just went along with the shit you pulled. Did you know that she's never actually thrown a slushie at me? You did."
"So what, you're going to go after me now?"
She shakes her head. "I'm not going after anyone Quinn. I was just making a fucking point. The only thing I want is for her to be happy and you are making that hard. She's not happy because you will not back off and let us be. You are her friend and she loves you as such but you are only hurting yourself and her by continuing this shit."
Quinn rounded on her and was in her face. "I'm not going to let you hurt her. She's my sister damn it and I know you are up to something."
Rachel stepped back and realizes that Quinn believes 100% that she wants to hurt Santana. Softening slightly she just looks at her, "I'm not the one hurting her. That would be you. Did you know I held her the other night until she fell into an emotionally exhausted sleep because of her fear of losing you? She doesn't understand why you can't be happy that she's happy. That pisses me off and the only reason I haven't kicked your ass up to this point is because she asked me not to."
Rachel took a breath and steps away trying to clear her mind. "I used those boys as beards. I've always been a lesbian. I chose Finn because at the time you were going through so much and you needed a way out of the lie. Every other time was to get him away from you because you deserved better and he was never going to be what you need. I dated Puck because I could, that had nothing to do with you. I dated Jessie because he was easy and I liked singing with him. I'm dating Santana because I need her."
Quinn scoffs, "You want me to believe that you kept stealing my boyfriend to help me?"
Rachel shrugs. "Only the first time, every other time after that I didn't steal him he came to me but I took him back to keep him from you. You were honestly better off with Sam. Believe it or don't, it doesn't matter to me. All I want is for you to back off Santana and let her breathe, let her be happy."
"You don't deserve her."
"No I don't but I'm going to keep her, care for her, make her happy and hope that one day I am worthy of her. Like I said, I need her, she's everything to me."
The clearing of a throat caused them both to look and see Santana and Brittany standing there. Rachel stepped back as Santana moved into her arms looking at Quinn. "From this moment this will be last we speak of this. You either have my back or you back all the way off and don't even talk to me. I hope you chose to have my back because Rachel is my future and I want you to be a part of that. It would break my heart for you to only have been a part of my past."
With that she takes Rachel's hand and walks away. Quinn watched them go as Brittany moves in beside her. "Do you believe me now?"
Looking over to her blonde friend she sighs. "I don't think I have a choice. She's choosing Rachel over me."
Brittany shakes her head and intertwines their arms. "You're making her chose. She wants you both. Her sister and her love," she turns her and cups her cheeks wiping the tear that has fallen. "Stop making her chose and just be there for her. If by some far off craziness you are right, she's going to need you. So just let it go and hope for the best but for what it's worth, I think Rachel really loves her too."
Quinn sighs and nods leaning into her. "Yeah, I think maybe you're right."
Brittany just holds her close until she calms and they eventually head to their cars.
When Rachel and Santana arrive home Rachel takes her hand and guides her through the house and straight to their suite. Santana keeps walking taking her bag to her room then comes out grabbing Rachel's hand again moving to her bedroom. She pushes her on the bed climbing up with her burying her face in Rachel's neck and starts to cry.
Rachel pulls her as close as possible until she is literally on top of her and lets her get it all out rubbing up and down her back kissing her forehead. No words are spoken as Santana clings to her.
Eventually she calms and shifts to move off of her but Rachel just tightens her hold. "I'm going to crush you Tink."
"No, I'm fine. I like you there just relax baby."
Santana sighs and melts back into her. "How much of that did you hear?"
"I got there right about the time Quinn was threatening to talk to mami and papi about the kind of person I am," she leans up kissing her head. "I didn't realize that you knew about the whole Sunshine thing. Why didn't you say anything?"
She shrugs and kisses the exposed skin at Rachel's chest. "By the time I found out about it she had already pulled out of the show and we were all dealing with Mercedes and her diva-tude. After that it just never came up again until today."
Rachel just hums in acknowledgement and after a small pause Santana lets her fear come to the surface. "What if I lose her?"
Rachel kisses her head and rests her cheek on her hair. "I don't think you're going to baby. She loves you as much as you love her and in her own twisted way she's trying to protect you. Give her time, she'll come around and if she doesn't you will always have me."
Santana sighs burrowing in and lets Rachel just hold her. A few minutes pass before Rachel asks, "Did you mean it?"
Santana looks up resting her chin on her hands looking at her confused. "Mean what? I know I said a lot to her but I meant it all." Rachel looked into her eyes for so long that Santana was getting worried thinking that she had said something to upset her. "Did something I said offend you or something?"
Rachel shakes her head, "No, never mind, it doesn't matter."
Rachel shifts to move her off of her but Santana doesn't let her. "No, tell me what you're talking about because obviously it matters."
Rachel sighs throwing an arm over her eyes so she doesn't have to look at her. "You told her you love me. Did you mean it or did you say it to get her off your back?"
Santana looked at her unsure of how to answer her for a second but in the end she couldn't see a reason not to be honest. "I wouldn't have said it otherwise Tink. I love you."
Rachel gasps and moves her arm to look at her again but says nothing making Santana nervous so she rushes on. "I don't really know when it happened. I just… I hadn't even really acknowledged it to myself. She was on my case about Cheerios and you and we got into it but when she called you that name I just snapped. I slapped her and told her I love you because I do and I'm not going to let anyone tal…"
Rachel surges up stopping her midsentence by latching on to her lips kissing her so tenderly it almost brought tears to Santana's eyes. Melting into her Santana opens allowing her entrance as her tongue glides over her bottom lip lovingly.
Rachel pulls back just slightly resting their foreheads together and practically sighs into her. "I love you too baby."
Santana smiles brightly pushing back in to take her lips again. This time it heats up quickly. Santana shifts until she is straddling Rachel's hips as she leans over her devouring her mouth. What she said was true. She hadn't acknowledged until the moment it came out of her mouth that she was in love with Rachel but there was no denying the truth. She loves her, she is in love with her and now that she knows her feelings are reciprocated she couldn't stop herself from deepening the kiss and bearing down with her hips into Rachel growing center.
Rachel moans and gracefully flips them until she is fully on top and nestled in between Santana's thighs. When she grinds down on her Santana groans, "Jesus I need your hands on me."
She pushes Rachel back slightly to sit up and takes her top off and lays back down pulling Rachel with her. "We don't have to do anymore then kiss and touch a little but I need your hands on my skin Tink, please."
Rachel growls ripping her own shirt off and falls back into her running her hands up her sides to her bra clad breasts. They had done this only once before because she was afraid they'd lose control and go too far but right now, in this moment, she just didn't care. She moves her hands to cup both full mounds and leans in connecting their lips again.
Santana arches into her touch and moans into her mouth. Running her hands up Rachel's back she digs her nails in knowing what that does to her and almost comes undone at the growl she feels in the body on top of her as Rachel trusts roughly into her.
She moves her hands around and cups Rachel's breasts as well pulling back panting. "Can I take this off love?"
Rachel melts at the endearment and nods reaching under Santana to unclasp hers as well. "Only if I can take yours too."
Santana nods urgently arching up to let her have better access while undoing Rachel's above her. A few tugs, grunts and thrown articles later they come back together completely both moaning at the sensation of full skin on skin contact.
Rachel eventually shifts taking both mounds in her hands again nipping at her pulse point before kissing up to her earlobe biting gently, "God your perfect. Your skin is like silk."
Santana bucks her hips looking for more friction as she runs her hands down to Rachel's ass and pulls her into her. "You feel so good, god Tink please."
Rachel moves to the other side of her neck repeating her actions as she kneads her breasts and grinds against her slowly. "Please what baby, what do you need?"
She pulls at her hip restlessly and shakes her head. "I don't know I… I just need more."
Rachel smiles and runs a hand down to the waistband of her shorts playing with it. "Can I… touch a little more?"
Santana was writhing with need at this point panting hard and nods her head vigorously. "Yes, please love I need you."
Nodding once she dips her hand in and groans at the fact that Santana wasn't wearing anything under the shorts before focusing on the task and pushes in further to cup her fully. Santana threw her head back, "Jesus Christ Rachel, YES!"
Rachel shivered at Santana's reaction and to the abundant wetness she was greeted with. "Shit you're so wet." She was in awe of the feel of her.
Santana gripped her forearm in desperation. "You always make me this wet."
Rachel shifts her hips trying to alleviate some of the tension she is feeling but it doesn't seem to help at all. Santana senses the tension in her body and moves her hands to Rachel's belt. Rachel shifts back looking at her hands. "What are you doing?"
Santana moves towards her again. "Trust me love."
Rachel sighs and allows her to remove her belt and unbutton her pants before her anxiousness gets the best of her and she shifts slightly out of her reach. "I'm not sure I'm…"
Santana leans in kissing her lightly and her breath hitches when she moves and Rachel's hand shifts against her still in her shorts. "Jesus," She panted out and took a moment to breathe deeply to center herself. She wanted Rachel to trust her and be comfortable with her like this. "Let me touch you like you're touching me. I don't have to look yet. I just want to make you feel good too."
Rachel just rests her forehead against Santana's trying to calm her heart, thinking. Eventually she shifts back into her and ran a finger through the wetness that was so distracting. "Ok, just go slow please."
Santana moans at the new contact to her core and moves her hand back to Rachel's waistband. "Ok love, you let me know if I do something you don't like."
Rachel nods and almost loses it the second that Santana's hand came into contact with her most sensitive flesh, "God baby."
Santana gently squeezes and groans at the silky feel of the hard member. "Jesus."
Rachel moans and takes her lips in a searing kiss. They start moving against each other, both of them loving the feel of the other against them. Rachel worked Santana's clit and explored her folds while kissing her neck and upper chest. Santana was mesmerized by the feel of Rachel in her hand and alternated squeezing and stroking her.
Rachel's hips buck at an especially hard squeeze causing her to push against Santana's opening. Santana throws her head back and bites back a scream. "Oh god Tink… take off my shorts… please love they are getting… uncomfortable."
Rachel nods sitting back on her knees forcing Santana to lose her grip, to her displeasure. She removes her own hand pulling her shorts off and gasping at the sight before her. "God you are so beautiful baby."
Santana pulls Rachel back down into a desperate kiss she presses against her. When Rachel had sat up her open jeans fell to her thighs a bit and now the only barrier between Santana sopping wet center and her throbbing member is the flimsy cotton boxers she is wearing.
Santana moans into her mouth then pulls away panting. "Please Tink, I want you. I love you, please. Touch me, make love to me."
Rachel groans pushing a little harder and nods panting. She sits back again and Santana sits up with her. As she fumbles with the waistband unsure Santana moves her hands away and pushes her onto her back. Leaning forward she kisses Rachel softly, lovingly and pushes her hand back into her pants.
"I love you Rachel," she says still stroking her softly. "I want you to trust me, I promise I will be here when all is said and done. You are my future, my heart. Please trust me, let me see you."
Rachel can feel the tears welling in her eyes at her words and pulls her in for another kiss. "I love you too Santana. You are my everything." She reaches down pushing her jeans until she can kick them off all the while trying her best to breathe because of Santana is still stroking and squeezing her. When she is down to nothing but her boxers she lays back and smiles shyly. "Can you… will you…"
Santana cuts her off kissing her again as she releases her hold moving her hands to the waistband of her boxers and slowly removing them keeping contact with her mouth until they are low enough for Rachel to kick off as well. Slowly she moves out of the kiss and looks deeply into Rachel's eyes before raking her eyes lower and finally getting a look at what she has been fantasizing about since their first picnic at the pond. She reaches out and reverently takes it in her hand again and strokes it lovingly. "Jesus you are beautiful Rachel."
Rachel whimpers as all of these new sensations start to overwhelm her and Santana leans down kissing the head softly then moves to capture Rachel's mouth again. Rachel threads her hands into Santana's hair pulling her closer and Santana straddles her hips resting her core to Rachel's and just sit's completely still as they moan into each other at the feel.
Rachel pulls her mouth away panting. "Wwwwait… in the drawer…" she points to her nightstand. "Con…condoms. We don't need… a little… one yet baby."
Santana smiles rotating her hips just slightly, "I'm on the pill, please I want to feel you."
Rachel groans as she grinds into her and nods her ok. Santana spends a few more minutes just enjoying the feel of her gliding through her folds but is unsure what to do now. The only times she was with a boy they did everything and it didn't feel that good.
Rachel senses her unease and puts her hands on her hips to stop her. "What's wrong San?"
Santana shrugs and lies against her with her face in her neck. "I'm a little scared."
Rachel rolls them effortlessly until she in on top and nestled between her thighs. "What is scaring you baby?"
She kept her face buried and sighs. "The first time it hurt and the second it didn't hurt so much but it was really uncomfortable. I want this I'm just really nervous."
Rachel smiles and pulls her face out to look at her. "Promise me that if it hurts or you feel uncomfortable that you will tell me. If we need to I promise to stop and change what we are doing. Ok? I don't ever want to hurt you or do something that makes you uncomfortable."
Santana nods kissing her softly. "Ok, thank you."
They come back together and for now the urgency is gone and they just savor the others mouth. Eventually Rachel runs a hand down Santana's body and cups her center running her middle finger up and around her clit until Santana was once again writhing against her.
Experimentally she runs her finger to her opening and presses in slightly. Santana arches against her. "Jesus please Rachel."
Rachel smiles into her neck and presses in slowly. Santana moans and her hips start to move slowly in time with Rachel's soft thrusts. A moment later Rachel adds a second finger and Santana cries out her hips moving faster as Rachel took her a little higher.
Experimenting again she toys with her opening with a third finger pushing in just slightly working a little more in at a time. "Is this ok baby?" She asks as Santana slows her hips.
"Yes… god yes more Tink please."
Rachel smiles and pushes the rest of the way in and relishes Santana's gasps as more fluid gushes making it easier to move in and out. It doesn't take her long to work up a rhythm that Santana seems to be enjoying as her hips move rapidly trying to keep up.
Santana's hands up to this point have been on Rachel's biceps and she drops one to Rachel's throbbing member squeezing them pulling softly. Rachel throws her head back and growls as Santana leans up into her ear. "I'm ready; I want to feel you now."
Rachel nods moving her hand to the bed beside her and shifts her entire body against Santana's rubbing her tip against her clit. Leaning on her forearms she shifts until she is holding onto Santana's shoulders form underneath her and trusting against her waiting for…
"God Rachel please, please."
Rachel kisses up her neck to her ear. "Please what San? I need you to tell me what you need."
Shaking her head trying to clear it she pulls Rachel in kissing her soundly then rips her mouth away on a moan as she thrusts against her again hitting her clit each time. "Inside Rachel, I need you inside. Just go slow."
Rachel nods and positions herself at her opening. Gently she pushes forward entering her slowly and moans are ripped from both of them. "Oh god Santana."
Santana's grip tightens on her arms. "Oh… oh shit."
Rachel stops moving once she in fully seated and kisses her nose lightly trying to hold on to the tension coiling inside of her. "Are you ok baby?"
Santana nods flexing her fingers against Rachel's biceps. "Yes, just don't move."
"Do we need to stop?" Rachel's body shook with the sheer will it took to stay still but she refuses to hurt her in any way.
Santana shakes her head. "No, just give me a second."
Rachel nods resting their foreheads together trying to slow her breathing as Santana wills her body to relax and take a deep breath before experimentally moving her hip against her. Rachel moans holding her body ridged for Santana to get comfortable.
With another arch of her hips Santana runs her hands up into Rachel's hair. "Ok, you can move just go slow."
Rachel whimpers as she pulls out almost all the way out and slowly sinks back in. Both of them moan again as she sets a slow pace in and out. "Is…. is this ok?"
Santana nods, "Oh god. Yes... you can go faster."
Rachel hips start to pick up speed and their breasts rub together with the motion of their bodies. Santana pulls on Rachel's hair connecting their lips once more and pours all that she is feeling into that kiss.
When Rachel accidentally moves a little harder then she intended Santana rips her mouth away. "RACHEL,"
Rachel stops moving looking at her concerned. "I'm sorry I…"
Santana shakes her head rapidly. "No, don't stop. God Tink do that again."
Unsure she starts moving slowly again but Santana grabs her hips and rolls her own roughly. "Faster… Harder… please love, you didn't hurt me."
Seeing nothing but certainty and lust in her eyes Rachel builds up a more forceful and rapid pace. "Shit San… god so good… I don't think… I'll last… much longer baby."
Santana sunk her nails into her back and groans. "Me either just… don't stop…"
Rachel started pounding harder her hips losing their rhythm. The change in her thrusts causes her to hit against Santana's g-spot and she couldn't hold on any longer as orgasm rips through her. "Ohgodohgodohgod…RACHEL!"
The feel of Santana's wall squeezing her causes Rachel to explode as well. "Oh GOD!"
Santana pulled her down flush into her and they just held on as they came down from their high. Rachel had collapsed on her and had her face buried in her neck but once she regained some of her senses she shifted to move off of her but Santana held tight. "No please stay. I love the feel of you against me."
Rachel sighed and rested back into her. "God you feel so good."
After lying there a few minutes more Rachel leans up and kisses Santana so lovingly it almost brought tears to her eyes then finally pulls out causing a moan from both of them. She shifts to the side pulling Santana with her and sighs as they settle. "That was…"
Santana stretches her body fully against her and smiles. "It really was."
Rachel chuckles and lifts her face to look in her eyes. "Was it really ok? It wasn't uncomfortable?"
Santana smiles and kisses her chin and nips it playfully. "No it was so good. I had no idea it could feel like that. You were so perfectly patient with me. Thank you."
Rachel blushes lightly as she brushed her nose against Santana's. "You were perfect, I'm just glad it was ok. I just… I love you so much and I wanted our first time to be good for you."
"Oh Tink, it was so much more than just good. I love you too."
They share another tender kiss and Rachel pulls a blanket over them as they settle wrapped up in each other.
A/N: Ok my lovelies I hope this chapter was worth the wait. Up next school is getting closer.
