-Chapter thirty-three-too much for 2 days before-
-Rachel pov-
"So the movie is first and then we go to a spa?" Maribel nods and I hug her tightly "THANK YOU!"
"No problem dear" I feel Maribel wrap me into a hug too "I never get this many hugs from Santana"
"Cause I am not a snuggle bear" We both look at her with a raised eyebrow "Brittany is different"
"I am going to go make sure Beth and Shelby are ready!" Maribel pulls me back as Santana turns and whispers in my ear "Please figure out what is wrong ok? She seems to be upset about something"
"Will do" Maribel smiles and walks away so I walk to Santana "How you doin sis? Ready for a bonding day?"
"Brittany broke up with me" I look at her waiting for the joke "No joke...she called last night"
"Oh Santana" I pull her into my side and rub her back "It will be ok"
"She is the first person I have ever let inside my head" I can feel my shoulder getting wet "I feel so lost without her!"
I pull her closer and think of what to say "You are going to be alright" She scoffs and I pull back to look her in the eyes "You are! You know why? Because you are Santana Lopez! You are going places! You are sweet, kind, cuddly, and sexy! You can get anyone and do anything you want!"
"Yeah" Santana sniffles and stands up "You should go change your shirt while I get my makeup"
I nod and walk off with a smile. I totally just fixed everything.
-Santana pov-Santana singing-
You're on the phone with your girlfriend
She's upset, she's going off about something that you said
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
And she'll never know your story like I do
But she wears short skirts
I wear T-shirts
She's cheer captain
And I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see
That I'm the one
Who understands you
Been here all along
So, why can't you see
You belong with me
You belong with me
Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself
"Hey, isn't this easy?"
And you've got a smile
That could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in a while
Since she brought you down
You say you're fine I know you better than that
Hey, what you doing with a girl like that?
She wears high heels
I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain
And I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see
That I'm the one
Who understands you
Been here all along
So, why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your backdoor
All this time how could you not know, baby?
You belong with me
You belong with me
Oh, I remember you driving to my house
In the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're 'bout to cry
I know your favorite songs
And you tell me about your dreams
Think I know where you belong
Think I know it's with me
Can't you see
That I'm the one
Who understands you?
Been here all along
So, why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your backdoor
All this time how could you not know, baby?
You belong with me
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me?
You belong with me
I sigh and fix my makeup. Today is about bonding. I guess I can focus on that instead. Not like I have to think about the other thing anyways.
-Time skip-Rachel pov-
"That was pretty good" Mom lays her head on maribels shoulder as we walk out of the theater "Tron has always been a favorite of mine"
"I enjoyed it too" I smile and lay my head on Santanas shoulder "It was a nice day out with all of you!"
"Well it still is continuing!" Maribel smiles and adjusts Beth on her hip "We have a spa visit to go do!"
"Hey back off!" I am pulled away from Santana and very confused as Fran gets into Santanas face "You think you can leave Brittany and come onto our girl?!"
"What?" I look at Quinn and see her angry "Hey you two need to leave!"
"Br-Brittany said I left her?" The girls nod and tears form in Santanas eyes "Why would I do that?"
"Get off of me!" I push Quinn away and catch Santana as she collapses sobbing "You two should be ashamed!"
"She is lying" Quinn steps up to beside Fran "We were just with a crying Brittany!"
"She left me for Artie!" I run Santanas back as the girls faces start to show realization "Why would I leave her? She is who I have always loved!"
"So you no longer have a crush on Rachel?" Santana tenses and I glare at them "Come on Rach! This is fair! She is a manipulator!"
"This was a bonding day you two have ruined!" Mom gets in their space quickly "You two need to go home now!"
I help Santana up and keep my glare to them "Do not call me" they look at me shocked and hurt "You ruined it! Return your gifts for me because we are over!"
"Rachel do not do this for me" Santana sniffles and looks pitiful honestly "You love them"
"You are my sister" I wipe her tears away "How about we skip the spa and go home? I think I heard a certain someone loves hallmark movies"
"I think that is a great idea" Maribel smiles and we start walking away "I just read the coupons and they are expired anyways...hey Shelby I need new spa coupons"
"The word is voucher" We all chuckle as we get to the car "But sure I will look into getting us some and getting Beth a babysitter"
-Fran pov-
I watch as they get in and pull away. I can feel my heart ripping to shreds. Is this what heartbreak is? Is this how love feels when it dies?
"She will come back" I look over at Quinn who has her walks up "She is our girlfriend! She loves us and she will be back! They always come back!"
"She is not coming back" I can see the quickly built walls crack "She left us because we hurt her"
"Brittany lied to us" I nod and can see the tears fall down her face "Brittany lied to me and she lied to you...we lost Rachel because of her lying to us"
"We lost Rachel cause of how we reacted" I pull her into my side and lead her to the car "Let's go visit our 'friend' huh?"
She nods and I help her into the car. I wait till I am calm before driving. It is a short ride to Brittany's house. We get out and ring the doorbell.
"Hang on!" Good she is answering "Oh hey..what are you two doing here?"
"She left you huh?" Brittany looks at me confused "You told us Santana left you! We just lost our girlfriend for protecting you! What do you have to say?!"
"I-I never called you two" Brittany pulls out her phone and looks genuinely confused "I...I was in the shower when you were called...I do not even remember calling Santana"
"Well someone used your phone and your voice" Tears form in Brittany's eyes and we pull her into a hug "We are going to come in and plan this out ok? We will get our girls back tomorrow"
"She thinks I left her again!" I look at Quinn and we help Brittany inside as she sobs "I am never going to be loved by her again!"
Tonight is going to be a long night.
-??? Pov-
"Did it work?" She nods and I smirk "This was too easy"
"You get Santana and I get Rachel remember?" I nod and she smiles "Good! I want to have her under my control by New Years"
We both chuckle as we drive away.
