SANTANA'S HOME
7.10 again. 'What a time to be awake' Santana moaned at the sound of her alarm. Last night when she came home Quinnn was already sitting in the kitchen waiting for her. She got a whole speech about always letting eachother know where they went. Santana apologized and told Quinn all about Brittany. She was surprised by herself that she was telling her best friend about the new feelings she had for this girl she only met 12 hours ago. Quinn seemed to be aware that this was a rare situation, hearing Santana so open. So she decided not to tease her too much about the latina being so whipped already within a day. The whole night the blonde had danced in her dreams. The told herself not to have feelings for this girl. She's a collegue for fuck's fake! Her alarm went off again. This time her eyes snapped open to check the time. 7.40.. she had been snoozing for half an hour. "FUCK!" She yelled and hopped out of bed. She grabbed some clothes to put on. Deciding to shower tonight, she could not be late to work.
When she arrived in the office at 8 o'clock all of her collegues looked up when she walked in. She scanned the room but Brittany was nowhere to be seen. "Morning wheels" the latina jokingly said, slapping Artie's shoulder. "Have you seen the new girl?" She asked receiving a smirk from him. "Morning Lopez, she was with Sam last I've seen her. Maybe the cantine or the printer room?" He suggested. "Thanks wheels" she said turning her back to him and walking straight to the cantine, she needed a coffee anyway. This morning wasn't one of her best. And it was only tuesday, 4 more days to go.
When she came closer she heared laugher coming from the cantine. That must be Sam she thought. She stuck her head in, coughing a little "Uhm am I interrupting something blondie's?" The latina asked. "Ey goodmorning Santana" Sam said. "Not at all just getting Brittany and myself a coffee. Best get to work now before Will comes in" he said and walked away. "Goodmorning Santana" Brittany smiled when Sam was out of the room "did you sleep well?" She asked. "Hi Britt, could've been better, but I made it here in time atleast. Was blondie flirting with you?" She asked hoping not to sound jealous. Which she totally was. Sam was a hot guy and she would totally understand if Brittany was into that. Brittany laughed "I don't know. Doesn't really matter.. I'm not into blondes anyway. I prefer something a bit... darker" She replied putting coffee in the smiley mug from the day before.
"Coffee?" She asked before Santana could comment on her previous comment. "Uhmmm yes, black please." The latina tried hard not to stumble over her words. Brittany opened the cabinet above to look for a mug that would suit Santana, she settled on a blue mug with a yellow and red Superman logo on it. She smiled pouring the coffee in and offered it to the brunette. She gave her a wink and asked "so what are we doing today?"
The day flew by and Santana couldn't help but think the blonde had been flirting with her a few times already. She told herself she was probably making it all up in her head. She spend the next few nights in her bunk thinking about the blonde haired girl and wondered was she was doing. If she caught Tubbs smoking after dinner. If she was okay all alone in the house on the complete other side of town.
Friday morning she went to the office early. She wanted to make sure she could make Brittany her coffee today. The previous days the blonde beat her to it. Santana smiled when she reached the office and found the door still locked. She was definitely early, but she didn't mind. The idea to see the blonde walk in today got her happily leaving her bed way too early this morning. She even picked out her favorite red top to wear to the office today. After making her and Brittany's coffee she sat down in her spot and turned on her computer. She was clicking through some mail when the elevator opened and Mike and Tina came in. "Morning" she said but she kept her eyes focused on the screen. The second time the doors opened she sat back in her chair a little in anticipation of who was gonna enter the office next. It was the blonde she had been waiting for. Wearing that cute beanie again like she did 4 days ago when they first met. Brittany's eyes caught Santana's looking at her and she gave her a small wave before walking towards the hall to hang up her coat.
Santana was back on her mails when she heared Brittany almost whisper "Goodmorning Santana" while she rolled the chair she had used the past couple of days next to the latina and sat down. "Goodmorning Britt. I made you coffee if you want" Santana said shyly. "That's very sweet of you, thank you" Brittany replied. 'Lopez come on, don't be such a pussy just ask her' Santana thought. Last night Santana was thinking of Brittany, again. She was wondering if she could take Brittany home like she did last monday and cook for her. She even went shopping super ealy before work and had the groceries in her car. She heared Quinn's voice in her head saying 'Whipped Lopez!'. "Brittany..." Santana started. Brittany looked up to meet her eyes with the spoon from her coffee in her mouth. She slowly pulled the spoon out while humming "mm mm" telling Santana to ask what she wanted to ask. 'Oh man, why is she so cute even with a friggin spoon in her mouth' the latina sighted. She took a breath to gather up her nerves and said "I was wondering... Can I take you home tonight?" Brittany chuckled at her choice of words. "Take me home ey, we've only known eachother for 5 days Santana" she replied with a smirk. "No no I mean.. bring you home and have dinner like we did on monday.. if you don't want to I totally understand.. I didn't mean anything with it.. I just thought.." Santana rambled as Brittany cut her off by grabbing the older girls' hand. "Easy there Lopez" she laughed "you can totally take me home" she smiled at Santana. "I have to work with Sam and Artie today but I'll meet you when we finish" the blonde stated. Santana could only nod and smile as the blonde stood up walking away with her coffee and pushing her chair towards Artie's desk. He must've heared Santana's awkward rambling because when the blonde sat down next to him he turned around to look at the latina with a huge smirk before turning back to his work.
The day went by very slowly, as the end of the week of work came by closer and closer Santana's nerves grew bigger and bigger. It felt like all day she watched the blonde move around the office, laughing with Artie but what bothered her even more.. with Sam. During lunch Sam did a funny dance while waiting for the coffee machine and Santana had to admit even she felt a little tingle in her lady parts when he did. She got jealous of the thought what Brittany must've thought about that. What felt like hours later she glanced at the clock for the 100th time that day. 5.30 finally... She quietly sat behind her desk waiting for the blonde to finish talking to Sam. After a few minutes the watched the blonde walk towards the hall to grab her own coat and the latina was surprised that she came back with her leather jacket aswell. "This is yours I guess?" Brittany smiled handing the jacket to her. "Thank you" Santana said while getting up. "You are still okay with me driving you home and dinner?" The latina asked unsure. "Totally!" The blonde said happily "let's go" she said as she hopped towards the elavator.
When the girls drove out of the parking lot Brittany asked "so what do you want to take away for dinner this time?" Santana gulped nervously.. "I kinda thought that maybe I could cook for you today?" Santana replied. Brittany smiled adoringly at her "you are too sweet. There's a small grocery store close to my house, want to stop there?" The blonde said. Santana smiled at the blondes answer. "Look on the backseat Britt..." The blue eyes lit up when Brittany shifted in her seat to look around at the backseat when she saw two shopping bags filled with groceries laying there. "Too sweet..." she simply replied as she put her hand on Santana's leg. "You are just too sweet" she mumbled silently.
