I hope you guys enjoy this. I'm trying to get the background of the story settled so please bare with me, I promise I'll keep it interesting and filled with some drama. Rachel isn't looking all that great but hopefully we get into her pov later.
"I know that as time passes you're going to forget me little by little. And i'm preparing myself for a reunion that I know will never happen, I'm lying to myself. Oh, how sad is my life that happiness can not be bought with money, tell me what do I my God (oh my God) Because I swear that I will not recover from this. Even if I wanted to stop loving you I will not be able to (yes). Even if with both hands I hold on to you I'm going to lose you, mmm If you say goodbye saying an I love you tell me in the bathroom so that the echo lasts longer So that all your friends And my friends don't see me cry"
POV Quinn
"You know she wrote that song the day after you left." I heard a deep voice speak and it startles me. I turn around and see Puck standing next to me not taking his eyes off of the Latina on stage.
"I don't know what happened Quinn and honestly after all these years I'm not 100 percent sure i really care. But you leaving was the best and worse thing that could have happened to Santana." It shocks me that he still hasn't looked at me and I take the time to let his words sink in. What does me mean the best and worse?
Flashback 6 years ago
I walk out that restroom torn because how could Santana end this? I'm just taking Rachels advice and giving her that push so that she can reach her goals. Why can't she see that i'm her biggest fan and i will support her no matter what? But Rachel is right.. she's the one that lives with Santana and sees her every day and knows that she needs this push and this discipline and tough love. I can't back down now. Rachel has a lot of valid points and i'm a logical person, this will be okay.
"Hey! Where you go? And where's Santana?" Kurt asked as him and Blaine approached me.
"Her and I had a small argument she's in the restroom. I'm sure she'll be out in a bit. Have you guys seen Rachel? I have to ask her something." I say trying to sound nonchalant. They point at where Rachel is standing as she seems to be in a heated conversation with Santanas friend Dani. I excuse myself and walk towards them as i get closer i can hear Dani tell Rachel in a very serious tone.
"You're bat shit crazy, we can see through your shit Berry. Be careful what you do, because we all know she will never go for you." They stop as they see my approach.
"Watch out for this one Quinn, not everything that glitters is gold." Dani says and walks away
"What was that all about?" I ask Rachel who looks like she had a bucket of cold water poured on her.
"Nothing, don't listen to her. She's crazy and I think she might be on drugs or something. But enough about that. How did it go with Santana?" She grabs my hand and drags me to a corner so we can speak.
"Well i think we broke up. I told her everything you said and i took your advice and made some solid arguments about her future and she lost it." I can feel the tears swelling up in eyes and the reality of what Santana said is finally starting to hit me.
"What if i did the wrong thing Rachel? I believe in her and her dream and everything she wants to achieve. But i also want to know we both are working towards it and you're right. How was she going to get the money or the motivation if i just kept playing to her fantasy. Yes these couple of months have been hard on us because school is keeping me busy and she's working crazy hours but i know we love each other. What did i do?" The tears are falling from my eyes without me noticing and the pain in my chest is growing.
"You did the right thing Quinn, you finally put a boundary with her and you let her see that she needs to grow up. If she didn't give you any explanation about what she plans or even run after you when you walked out maybe it means she's not as committed to this relationship as you are. You want a future and a plan and she can't give you that now because maybe she's not ready.
Let me ask you something and please think about it. Are you sure you're both in love each other or are you both in love with the idea of what each of you could be?"
I'm stunned hearing those words come out of Rachels mouth. Of course Santana and are in love. I mean yeah we have our moments where it's felt like we had to work harder than other but thats a relationship right? It has its ups and downs. Were we forcing something that was destined to fail?
"Yesterday you started to cry when you told me that we no longer kissed like we used to (I cried a whole river for you). And how long has it been since we went out on a date the two of us alone without your friends coming? Before you didn't need to look at the menu because I knew what you wanted to eat before you did. Yesterday I started to cry when you told me that we no longer loved each other."
Santanas POV
I sit here on this stage for the sixth time in six years singing my first hit and the first song I wrote and recorded in our little studio. Every year for the past six years i've come here once a year and sing a different song that I wrote and recorded from my first album. Call it crazy or delusional but that album is what shot me up to stardom and made me the successful artist I am today. I owe it to this place in a way but I also owe it to the one person i have craved to see for the past six year. As I sing this verse i look up and find Puck in the crowd but my heart stops when I see the blonde next to him.

I'm stunned and I feel anger and hurt rush through my body. I have so many questions but those don't matter right now. I have to get to the bottom of this because this is NOT how our story ends. I rush out the restroom and look around and can't find Quinn anywhere. I head towards the exit and i feel a hand pull me back and i turn around and find it's Rachel.
"Santana don't just let her." I shrug her off and give her a look that could kill.
"Go back and crawl into whatever hole from hell you came out of hobbit. But know that this isn't over." I say to her as I exit.
I arrive at the loft and I see Quinn coming out of my area with her stuff and I'm ready to fight for this. No more pride.
"You can't leave just because you're scared." I tell her as I stand in front of her.
"Let me go Santana, don't make this worse. I'm not backing down from what I said. You have to get your life in order and I won't let you bring me down. I have to worked so hard to be where i'm at and I refuse to play into your dream and not see you do something about it."
"Where is all this coming from?! Why are you doubting me?! I am working on my dream! I'm sorry that i've been working extra hours but i've been doing it to save money to buy a studio and get the studio and label going!"
Quinn looks shocked because it's rare that i raise my voice at her. Usually everything about her calms me and makes me better.
"Why haven't you mentioned any of this? You're upset that i talk to Rachel about this but you can't even trust me to tell me what you're planning? That's not how relationships work Santana. How am i supposed to trust you if you keep things from me. Rachel is right you need to grow up and communicate. Use your word!"
"Are you fucking serious?! why does that troll even have a say in OUR relationship?!"
"Because she's the only one willing to open my eyes to what apparently i can't see! She lives with you and she sees how you're not putting the effort to better yourself and you're dragging me with you! She actually cares for our future and she sees things we can't see. Like how it is that we don't even kiss like we used to or aren't as affectionate like we once were!"
I'm lost for words because when has all this been put in her head? I feel rage and now my pride is back and that can not be a good thing. I see Quinn starting to cry and I want to hug her but i also don't want to touch her.
"I know you like the back of my hand Quinn. I know everything about you from what each facial expression means to what you're going to order from whatever Restaurant we go to. But when was the last time we did anything without that damn troll tagging along or inseruptin us? She's always around and i tolerated her because YOU felt sorry for her!"
"Don't blame this on her just because she's bringing up real issues! ... Maybe we're just at crossroads ... maybe we both know we deserve to be happy that we want it so badly to be with each other and we made up this whole fantasy with each other.. Maybe we're just in love with the idea of each other and what we could be... we don't really love each other."
My heart sinks to my stomach as i hear those words coming from the love of my life the woman that i want to grow old with. I hear this loud ringing in my ears and i can barely hear her next words before she walks out and i can hear them echoing like i could in that restroom it was just and "I love you".
I don't know how long i was standing there but i feel two strong arms wrap around me. It's Blaine and i look up and see Kurt standing there with tears in his eyes.
"I'm sorry Santana, we heard everything we didn't mean to but we were scared to come out of our area. I am so sorry."
I can feel the tears streaming down my cheeks but i can't seem to let out a cry or a sob. I feel numb and as if i'm not even in my own body. I have to do something so I do what i can. I go into my area and pack as much as i can in a small suitcase and walk out.
"Thank you guys, but i have to go. I'll be back for the rest of my stuff later. Take care." and with those words I leave.
POV Kurt
To say i am shocked is a nowhere near how i feel. Hearing those two argue like that breaks my heart because anyone that knows them know that they are meant to be. I can hear the pain in their voice and I can't help but agree with Santana and i'm furious at why Rachel would me meddling in their relationship. Since she got the lead roll in Funny Girl she has been insufferable. But that gives her no right to do what she's done.
Santana leaves the loft and i'm terrified to not know where she is going so I pull my phone out and call Puck. He says he knows where she is going and tells me not to worry and that he will keep me informed. We hang up and i just cry, not for myself but for Quinn and Santana. Rachel will have to hear what i have to say.
About and hour later Rachel walks into the loft and i feel rage build up.
"WHAT DID YOU DO RACHEL?!"
"Excuse me?" She looks shocked
"What did you do to Quinn and Santana?! They got in a huge fight and broke up! and from what i could hear YOU and your meddling had A LOT to do with it!"
"I did nothing. I just brought up some important topics to Quinns attention and stuff she has clearly not thought through. It's not my fault they broke up. Thats just fait." She says smugly
"Are you crazy?! What is your deal with Quinn?! and don't look at me like you don't know what i'm talking about. Ever since high school you have meddled in her relationship! Are you in love with her?!"
"Of course Not! and i'm offended you would even ask."
"Don't act stupid Rachel it doesn't suit you. What is it? Because from the fight Blaine and i just heard you caused a lot of it and I know for a fact Santana won't forgive you and unless you want to keep Quinn in our life the way she left she may not come around us for a LONG time. So think about what you've done or said. Because we may have lost them both."
She stands there thoughtful and the next word that come out shock me more than anything i've heard tonight.
"Wait so you're saying I may have lost a great friend and the person I love all at once?"
