As Santana bolted out of the gym she couldn't help but smile. Brittany still loved her. The girl she planned on spending the rest of her life with still loved her after everything they'd been through. The latina ran down the hall towards the choir room, she was sure Brittany would be either here or outside. She ran into the choir room to be met with none other than Sam girlfriend stealer Evans. Santana plastered on her best fake smile, she walked over to Sam and shot him a confused look.
"where's Brittany?.I need to talk to her." the latina questioned and stated with a firm voice. Sam shrugged his shoulders in response. Santana wasn't happy with her answer so she asked again. "I mean it Sam I need to talk to Brittany. You're her boyfriend you of all people should know where she is." Santana growled, she flinched a little when she realized Brittany was still with Sam, but soon forgot about it when she see Sam's over sized lips part as he went to talk.
"I don't actually know, she had cheerio practice I know that. Then I got a text saying she couldn't meet up after practice she had stuff to do." the blonde said shrugging his shoulders again. "I thought she had plans with you so I didn't question her on it." he added smiling at Santana.
"you're no help." Santana grumbled to herself as she left the choir room, the only other place Brittany would be is outside under the oak tree, where she and Santana used to sneak off to when the skipped class to go talk and make out. The thought of the blonde going there made Santana's heart swoon. Santana smiled as she approached the oak tree, Brittany was lying with her arm stretched out across the ground in the spot where Santana's body usually was. Brittany used to wrap her arm around Santana's shoulders as they lay there talking about the future. Santana took seat next the the blonde's out stretched arm, Brittany looked up at the ravened haired girl, her eyes were still a little watery but she could tell it was Santana. Slowly Brittany sat up bringing her arms to her chest crossing them, she then softly smiled at Santana.
Santana's heart melted at the sign of the dancers perfect smile. "hey you, I just wanted to see if you're ok. I mean you kinda admitted a lot back there it looked really overwhelming." Santana softly asked carefully moving forward linking the blonde's hand with her own. Brittany just stared at their conjoint hands. "I know you're with the singing fish but Britt, you told me you love me. I love you to, I want to be with you. Just you not any of those other girls just you." Santana quietly admitted lowering her head in embarrassment. Again the dancer just sat there. "Brittany please say something." Santana whispered, squeezing the soft pale skin again.
"I- it's I- em." Brittany got out. She took a breath composing herself before she tried again . "San, you know I love you more than anything in the world but I can't breakup with Sam to be with you, I just can't." the blonde said, it sounded more like she was trying to convince herself though. Santana swore she felt her heart split down the middle, but she wasn't going to give up. Brittany took a shaky breath and continued. "it's just that after everything that's happened between us my heart is just starting to get stable again so my head has all these warnings. Santana if we did get back together again what's to say we won't breakup again, what if long distance is too much like last time. I know one thing for sure, our breakup nearly killed me, I cannot and will not be able to handle something like that again." Brittany added. Santana felt sick, she couldn't believe what their breakup had done to Brittany. Sure she felt the same way as Brittany but she kept herself distracted but the blonde beauty in front of her seemed to dwell on their split since the moment it happened.
"Brittany, I'm so sorry I made you feel like that. I was stupid and I've bet myself up everyday since I left you in the choir room. I really don't know why I didn't fight for us more. It's just you were saying these things and I felt like the worlds worst girlfriend but then after I did what I thought was right for us I felt even worse. I was so tempted to walk back in here and take back what I had done but I just couldn't face you after that." Santana whispered wiping the tears from her eyes.
"Santana I don't know what to do." the dancer said throwing herself into the smaller girl hugging her tightly. Santana wrapped her arms tightly around Brittany's back, she felt terrible that all this was happening because of her. "I love you so much and when I think of my future I see you and I see us together , having our own family, being madly in love. But it's like there's a wall that's blocking me from getting there. I see through the crack in the wall to all the things we could have but I don't know how to break it to get there." Brittany mumbled into Santana's neck.
"Britt, I would love to tell you just to dump Sam and get back with me and we can rebuild our relationship but you need to listen to you're heart. The real questions are do you actually want to break the wall?. Do you already know a way to break the wall and have you just avoided doing it for protection?. All I'm going to say to you is I love you, I want us to be together and have all those things behind the wall." the latina confirmed. "Now I would like to sing one thing with you." Santana stated, Brittany gave her a confused look.
Santana took Brittany's hand pulling her up before she ran back towards the doors of the school pulling an even more confused Brittany behind her. Once they reached the choir room Santana looked right over and Brad "hit it." she instructed.
The music began to play Santana and looked Brittany in the eyes and mouthed for you.
Through wind and rain we got here
Now we're flying babe with no fear
Santana smiled up at Brittany. The blonde knew the song, she couldn't help but laugh. It was such a Santana thing to do. Nobody knowns but on their first official date Santana sang this song while they slow danced under the stars.
We've been doing pain for so long
When I stare in your eyes it's all gone
Unknown to the two girls who were smiling like crazy while Santana sang, Sam was standing outside the choir room watching.
Through wind and rain we burn bright
Learn to fly through flames and hold tight
Brittany was smiling so much she'd never felt as happy and relaxed in months. Santana really was something special, slowly she could feel her wall begin to crack a little more.
With so many ways to go wrong
When I look in your eyes they're all gone
Sam hd to admit he hadn't seen the dancer smile like that in months. He didn't want to lose his girlfriend he loved Brittany and he thought she loved him just as much. Santana had hold of Brittany's hands and the two laughed and danced while Santana's voice echoed round the choir room.
And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you're around ooooh we're untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren't ever gonna fall
We're safe and sound we're untouchable
Santana and Brittany were spinning round in circles. Sam was feeling very jealous, he couldn't believe Santana was making his girlfriend smile so much just by being there. Santana was trying to get Brittany to sing, the dancer was shaking her head back and forth but the latina pouted and Brittany couldn't say no she finally agreed to sing.
Brittany began to sing:
It's only real when you're not around
I'm walking in the rain the sun goes down (oh,oh)
Santana smiled she went to hug the singing blonde but Brittany bet her to it, Santana felt her feet leave the ground as Brittany picked her up and spun her around. Both girls we're giggling like idiots. Brittany kept on singing.
And only love can save us now
I need you here again to show me how (oh, oh)
Sam was getting really worried now, he could tell how much Santana loved Brittany and by the way things looked Brittany seemed to be enjoying it.
Santana starts singing again:
I know that love shouldn't be so hard
And sometimes we're standing in the dark
But you light up everywhere I go
Brittany and Santana just stood facing each other holding hands swaying from side to side. Santana was still singing.
And I know a heart shouldn't beat so hard
And sometimes we're swimming with the sharks
But you light up and keep me out te cold
Santana and Brittany both sang the chorus:
And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you're around ooooh we're untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren't ever gonna fall
We're safe and sound we're untouchable
Sam was still stood outside the choir room, he was getting more unsure about his relationship with the more the song went on. Back in the choir room the girls were smiling like crazy, Santana hadn't felt this happy in a long time. Brittany never thought she could feel this happy again.
Brittany sings the next verse:
It's only real when you're not around
The candle in my head is burning out (oh, oh)
Santana takes over:
I know that love shouldn't be so hard
And sometimes we're standing in the dark
But you light up everywhere I go
Brittany felt something inside herself burst open. She was guessing it was the wall that stood between her and Santana because suddenly she wasn't afraid and she wanted to be with Santana. She listened as Santana's perfect voice kept going.
And I know a heart shouldn't beat so hard
And sometimes we're swimming with the sharks
But you light up and keep me out te cold
Santana nudged Brittany before the two began singing the chorus together again:
And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you're around ooooh we're untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren't ever gonna fall
We're safe and sound we're untouchable
Brittany motioned for Santana to sing the remainder of the song.
When ever you're gone, gone
They wait at the door
And everything's hurting like a bore
Without any meaning
We're just skin and bone
Like beautiful robots dancing alone
Santana smiled up at Brittany while she continued singing.
When ever you're gone, gone
They wait at the door
And everything's hurting like a bore
Without any meaning
We're just skin and bone
Like beautiful robots dancing alone
Both girls knew the song was coming to an end, so they walked towards the chairs and sat down facing each other while the song went through it's last piano solo. The chorus came one last time so they sang it together:
And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you're around ooooh we're untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren't ever gonna fall
We're safe and sound we're untouchable
The music came to an end. Both girls just looked at each other, they both knew what the other was thinking. Slowly they began leaning forward but before their lips could meet Brittany pulled back. "Santana I love you and I want to be with you but I need to breakup with Sam first, it's the right thing to do." Brittany said smiling at Santana who just sat they're in shock after hearing the words I want to be with you leave Brittany's mouth.
"ok, Britt. You are such an amazing person, I bet nobody else would have thought twice about that. It's one of the many reason I love you." Santana admitted blushing slightly. Brittany let out a soft laugh and then blushed at Santana's comments.
Before any more words could exchanged Sam walked into the choir room. He walked over to Brittany. " I heard the song, I heard what you and Santana we're talking about Britt." Sam said clearly a little hurt over the situation.
"Sam, I'm so sorry, I know you probably hate me. I just-. It feels so right with Santana." Brittany said looking really upset, she never wanted to hurt Sam.
"I understand Britt. I want you to be happy, I love you and only want what's best for you. If Santana makes you this happy then you need to be with her. Sam stated."You remind me of me and Quinn." Sam chuckled at the memory.
"thank you Sam, you are truly amazing you know that. I love you to." Brittany said before she got up and hugged the blonde boy.
"Trouty." Santana yelled. "Thanks, I'll put a good word if for you with Quinn, she seems to be into you." Santana finished before she got up and offered her hand to Brittany. Brittany eagerly took hold of the hand she'd missed so much over the past couple of months. After they were outside the choir room the latina turned to face the blonde. "Britt will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend again?" Santana asked nervers making her voice a little shaky.
Brittany captured the smaller girls lips in her own, they shared a very long hot passionist kiss and reluctantly broke apart when air became a major issue. "I thought'd you'd never ask." Brittany quietly said winking at Santana. "I love you." the dancer whispered into Santana's ear.
"I love you to, you're the best thing that's ever happened to me." Santana whispered back. This time Santana leaned into peck her girlfriends lips. They then walked hand and hand out of the school. Back in the hall way behind the lockers Tina, Mercedes, Quinn and Rachel all stood there smiling at what they had just witnessed.
Tina turned to look at the other three girls. "That girls is how Brittany's life went from a tragedy to an untouchable romance in one day."
