General POV
After the kiss Santana turns to Quinn who looks like she's seen a ghost and introduces this mystery girl.
"Babe, I want to introduce to you Quinn."
"Wait.. Quinn? As in THE Quinn?" Says the mystery girl.
Puck and Dani look at each other with confusion because to this day Santana would not speak about Quinn or mention her. So it's a shock to them that she would confide in anyone else about her.
"Yes that Quinn" Santana say with a calm voice.
The girl walks over to Quinn with all the confidence in the world and stretches her hand.
"Hi, i'm Becky. Becky G. Santanas girlfriend."
Santana, Puck and Dani look at each other with surprise. Puck is trying to hold in a laugh and Dani just looks like she wants to run out. Santana has a mixture of pride and anxiety. Quinn extends her hand and shakes Beckys hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Becky."
Becky smiles and pulls Quinn into a hug that shocks everyone. Becky lets Quinn go and walks toward Santana.
"You ready Tana?" Quinn fells hurt and jealousy all at once because only she could call her that when they were dating.
"Of course. Puck Dani want to take over? Quinn you can sit there and listen if you'd like." Santana points at a seat next to where she was. Puck and Dani come and sit in front of the sound board and the get into work mode.
Santana and Becky walk into studio and they're talking and looking at their lyrics and just pointing things out. Puck is working on the sound board getting the beat ready and Dani sits next to Quinn.
"It's not as serious as it looks." Dani says to Quinn
"It looks pretty serious to me, she called her, her girlfriend." Quinn says back with some hurt in her voice. She didn't expect to get Santana back right away but she also didn't expect to see her move on.
"I told you you'd have competition Quinn. Santana has worked hard on herself to be able to get to this point. Becky is a good for her. She knows this version of Santana and they were very good friends before they decided to date. I think Santana owe this to herself to see where it goes. Don't meddle please. We all know how that went down last time." Puck says.
"Please do not mention that witch! She's like beetlejuice. You mention her three times and somehow she appears." Dani says frustrated.
"What are you guys talking about?" Quinn ask confused.
"Rachel." They both say at once.
"What about her?" Quinn is even more curious now.
Dani looks at Quinn as if she has grown a second head.
"Seriously Quinn? That night you and Santana ended things I confronted Rachel about her feelings for You but she kept saying she didn't like you in the way. So I kept pressing until I realized she was in love with Santana. I tore her a new one and told her to stop meddling and to get in her lane. She kept saying that Santana was nice to her and she believed Santana had feelings for her. I told her to talk to you and that Santana would never go for her. That's when you walked up and I left remember?"
Quinn is nodding and she's trying to piece things together.
"And not to mention that Rachel blew up Santanas phone that night and wouldn't leave her alone. She wrote her this long text saying she could comfort her and be that missing piece. It's a good thing I had her phone and erased those messages. It was my idea for her to change her phone number and Dani and I did the same a few weeks after when Rachel would drunk call us begging to talk to Santana." Puck says while still working on some finishing touches on the sounds board.
Quinn looks beyond surprised and she's starting to feel anger build up and thinking that this was Rachels master plan the whole time but it seems to have backfired.
"She still writes and calls for Santana every other week or so. She's been to all her local concerts here but we've never let her get close to her or even interact with her because honestly Santana hates her." Dani says.
"We don't allow anything that has to do with her to come through Santanas desk. Only us, Mr. & Mrs. L and Becky know about Rachel. We call her The Stalker." Puck says.
Quinn sits there shocked at what she's being told. She can't believe what she's hearing and in some crazy way it all makes sense. Kurt would always tell Quinn that Rachel wasn't all there and once they bot that their falling out Kurt would rather not touch the subject that was Rachel. He always told Quinn to watch out for her and when Quinn told him about Rachels love profession about Santana he snapped and said he always knew she had a thing for her and it all made sense.
Quinn is snapped out of her thought when she hears Santanas voice through the speakers saying they're ready to start. Puck holds his thumb up and the music starts to play through the studio and Santana starts the song.
(Santana)
And when i saw you, I knew you weren't for me. Surely you had someone that you weren't going to let go of.
(Becky G.)
But when i saw you, I swear I made up my mind. To get closer and tell you that when I kissed you, yeah. I felt like I touched the sky, uh-oh, oh-oh

The song ends and Puck and Dani are excited. Quinn is smiling and feels happy. Santana and Becky hug for a while.
"That was AMAZING girls! This is going to be a hit!" Puck says to the girls through their headphones.
POV Santana
The song went down great. We finally got the beat down and the lyrics the way we wanted. Honestly working with Becky has been like a fresh start. She has been my friend since we were young. Our dad's worked in the hospital together for a while and she moved to LA when we were around 8 and they reconnected when my dad transferred to NY. And i got back in touch with her about 4 years ago. She has become a great friend and honestly just 3 months ago I got the balls to ask her out. She said yes and we are taking it slow but I really like her and I want to see where this goes. But i almost screwed it all up by almost kissing Quinn. It was an instinct to want to kiss her and feel her close to me but I can't not like this. If Becky and I don't work out maybe I can give it a try with Quinn but i can't think of that. I have to think of the amazing and beautiful girl here with me.
"You sounded amazing babe!" I tell her as i bring her into my arms
"Thank you Amor, you did too and I can't wait for the music video." She says with a wink. I can't help but smile and peck her on the lips.
"What do you say we listen to it, work on a few things then we go upstairs change and we can do whatever you want today?"
"Okay, sounds good. But what about Quinn? You didn't mention she would be here." Becky says with a serious tone.
"I know, I didn't either honestly. She came in and wanted to talk and well i figured it's now or never. She wants to be friends and get to know me all over again. Are you okay with that?" I ask trying to read her expressions.
"We both know how this business is and we trust each other. If she wants to be your friend that's fine with me. I won't ever tell you who to or not talk to. You respecting me is up to you. We don't hide anything from each other and we communicate. But if her intentions are to get you back and you put yourself in that situation where she might succeed then please tell me so that I don't set myself up for a heartbreak."
I can't help but bring into me because honestly if it was the other way around I would probably throw a fit and get jealous. But this girl has been a blessing to me and the last thing i want to do is hurt her in anyway. I hug her and i kiss her forehead then the tip of her nose and then her lips. She smiles into my kiss and I know she knows i'm committed to her.
"Finish what you have to with her. And when you're done if you want and if it feels right in your heart come back to me." Becky says with a soft smile.
She's right. I have to finish this now that I have the chance and before anyone gets hurt.
We work on the song for a few hours with Puck and Dani. Quinn and Becky make small talk about work and life and I can tell Quinn is dying inside because she wants to be able to hate Becky but it's hard to hate this girl. Becky is genuinely interested in what Quinn has to say because she want to be able to know who this person is and what her intentions really are. Besides being my girl she was first my friend and she's very protective over me and I am of her also.
It's about 8pm now and we are all getting hungry. Quinn says she need to leave because she needs to work tomorrow. Puck and Dani finish for the day and they and Becky head upstairs to my apartment as I decide to walk Quinn out.
"She's very nice." Quinn says as we start walking towards the elevator.
"Yeah she is. She saved me from some dark times and I like to think I did the same for her."
"Do you love her?" Quinn ask reluctantly as if not wanting to know the answer.
"Yeah i do, but i can't say i'm in love with her. She was my friend first. We didn't start with romantic feelings. As time passed i realized i really liked her company. I would surprise her at her shows and she would do the same. We talked about anything and everything all at once. She's going to be someone i want in my life forever." I tell her truthfully because there's no reason to lie.
"I really and sorry Santana. I let Rachel into our relationship and she won."
"Don't be sorry Quinn. We're here now and we have a friendship to rebuild. The good thing is that we have a foundation and we don't have to start from scratch. Rachel may have won that battle but she didn't win the war. If she really did love me she did nothing about it because i didn't hear from her after you and I broke up. Hell there were times i wanted to go see her shows but something always came up and I wouldn't. But I have an idea. Lets go one day together and see what she say." I say with a devilish smirk
"Lopez, she will die!" Quinn says laughing.
"But seriously Santana, don't worry about Rachel. She will get hers."
We laugh and once we're out of the elevator I grab her arm and turn her towards me.
"Listen Q. You're still important to me. You still have my heart in a way. I want to get to know you. This version of you but i can't lead you on or give you hope. I can't do this to Becky I can't hurt her. If her and I don't work out I wan't it to be because it wasn't meant to be not because someone meddled."
POV Quinn
I hear the sincerity in Santanas voice and I know i can't be the Rachel in that relationship. I want Santana but not like this.
"You're right Santana. And I will be your friend but I want to be honest with you from the start. I love you Santana Lopez. You're my one and only and if given the opportunity I will make you the happiest woman alive. You and I are it. But I will let you be with her and I will support you but know that I will love you at every step." I say this to her with all strength i have.
Santana pulls me closer and without a second thought she kisses me. My arms automatically wrap around her neck and her arms pull me from my waist. The kiss doesn't feel rushed or sloppy. It's soft and passionate. We kiss till be both run out of air. She pulls back but i don't let her i bring her back to me and we continue to kiss. I whisper that I love her in between kisses and she just continues to kiss me. We pull back and we look at each other for a bit.
"Not that i'm complaining, but what was that about?" I ask her.
"I love you Quinn, I always have but the in love version of me isn't wanting to come back. I can't ask you to wait for me because it's not fair to you. Kissing you was amazing but i'm still hurt. Becky will know i kissed you. Actually it was her idea for me to settle this feeling. but she's who i want to be with right now. My heart is seeking her. Please understand."
I'm a bit hurt, but she still loves me. I will win her back. I won't give up.
"It's okay S. Knowing you still love me is enough. I have to go okay. I will text you later." I say to her and i lean in a peck her lips one more time. "Until we kiss again." I say and head out. I'm beyond happy now. I will get the love of my life back. It will take time but Santana and I will be together.
I arrive at my apartment and I am exhausted. It's been a long day but a good one. I change my clothes and i'm looking at some menus to order take out. I text Kurt to come over so i can tell him about my day. 20 minutes pass by and theres a knock at my door. I'm guessing it's Kurt and i go to answer.
"Hello Quinn." I'm greeted by the last person I want to see.
"Rachel."
Song is called Cuando te Bese by Becky G and Paulo Londra.
