-Chapter 48-Ceasefire and cookies-
-Santana pov-
Restarting has given me great spacing...or at least it had. I'm now behind by 4 scares. It's not my fault it took a few days to get out of the hospital. It's may actually be but I also have a issue. A Berry issue.
"Hey Santana!" I sigh as said issue runs toward me "How are you feeling today?"
"Same as I was last time!" She frowns and I sigh "I'm doing fine Rachel"
"That's good" I open my locker and start reaching for my books "Let me get those!"
My books I grabbed for are put into Rachel's arms immediately. It's been like this since the incident. Next week is fall break and I don't know how this will go. Quinn is starting to get jealous of Rachel and Brittany is getting jealous of me. I just need a way to get her to go to Brittany.
"I have a meeting with my mom in a minute actually" I look at rcahel apologetically "I won't need those books after all"
"That's fine" Rachel smiles and puts them up "I can wheel you there"
"It's a private meeting" I turn and start wheeling "I'll see you after"
I wheel to the main office and straight to my moms office. I open the door and close it behind me. I lock it and look at her. She is looking at me confused.
"Uhh" She sits up and clasps her hands together "Hello?"
"Rachel is still hounding me" I wheel to her desk and hold my hand out "Ceasefire today to get her off over her guilt trip! Please!"
"Alright" Mom shakes my hand "I'm doing this mostly so Quinn doesn't kill her"
"Thanks for protecting me from Brittany" She shrugs and I sigh "What are we going to do?"
"I have an idea"
-Rachel pov-
I know Santana is tired of me being everywhere but...I just wanna know the best way to apologize. I've been thinking of a singing number or making her favorite food...yeah that's a good idea! I smile and quickly walk to the front doors.
"Will they notice I'm gone?" I turn around and shake my head "This is more important"
I quickly sneak out to one of the cars and find the keys. I smile at my moms hiding spot under the break pedal. I start the car up and pull out of the lot. I'm going to make some of the best chocolate chip cookies for Santana!
-Time skip-
I smile at my handy work and park the car into the spot. I hide the key back and head into the school. Santana should be at her locker now. I go past and no time she's not there. I frown and start going to places she could be.
I pass by everywhere she usually goes but find no sign of her. I sigh and head to the auditorium. When I get to the doorway, I smile when I see Santana! I quickly walk up to where she is.
"Santana!" She jumps and turns toward me "I've been looking all over for you!"
"I've gone through so many plans but they didn't work" I stop my movements and look at her confused "This is the last idea that my mom and I came up with"
Santana holds up a card and hands it to me. I take it with my free hand and start reading.
'We went through thousands of ideas. We were literally going to find a dance and song to do! But we settled on doing this. You can't keep following me Rachel. It's creepy and not needed. You have been forgiven for what I did to you.
You hit me protecting yourself and Quinn. I'm not mad at you. So please stop following me around and making our girlfriends jealous. It's just needs to end'
"I see" I look at Santana and lay the cookies down "I'll take my leave then"
-Santana pov-
I watch Rachel sadly leave the auditorium. I didn't mean to hurt her. I just don't like being smothered nonstop. I'm focusing on winning a competition and I can't have her on top of me again.
I pick up the plate she had and look at the card taped to it.
'As an apology to you I made non vegan chocolate chip cookies! I know you love them so much and I wanted to make these for my best friend! You've saved my life once and I almost cost you yours twice. I owe you and this is just a small apology for what I've done.
Hope you enjoy and with love,
Rachel XOXO!'
"Oh no" I take the cover off and look at the still warm cookies "Oh no, no, no, no!"
This wasn't supposed to happen! She wasn't supposed to make cookies! Now I know why she was so hurt and insistent on helping me! What am I going to do?!
I have a possible idea.
-Time skip-
It's glee time and I'm on the stage waiting for Rachel to show. She does show up late and sits in the way back. I frown when she doesn't look up at the stage. I really hurt her.
Everything has just gone messed up! I need to fix it! I need to get my best friend back on the same page! I need my scare buddy!
"Hello everyone" I look at everyone and take a deep breath "As you know I've had a accident a few days ago! I scared Rachel and it went too far...now I'm losing my best friend and I've not really known what to do about it! But I do now!"
I wheel to the piano and move myself to the bench. I put my fingers over the keys and get ready. I hope only a hour of practice goes well.
-Santana singing-
I'm sorry
Two words I always think
After you're gone
When I realize I was acting all wrong
So selfish
Two words that could describe
Oh actions of mine
When patience is in short supply
We don't need to say goodbye
We don't need to fight and cry
Oh we, we could hold each other tight tonight
We're so helpless
We're slaves to our impulses
We're afraid of our emotions
And no one knows where the shore is
We're divided by the ocean
And the only thing I know is
That the answer isn't for us
No the answer isn't for us
I'm sorry
Two words I always think
Oh after you're gone
When I realize I was acting all wrong
We don't need to say goodbye
We don't need to fight and cry
We, we could hold each other tight tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight...
"I know how some of that sounds but I mean I just want my friend back and I'm sorry everything went crazy because of me" I look up at where Rachel is "Can you forgive me?"
"You'd have to try harder to make me not" Rachel smiles and runs up to the stage "I wanna a best friend hug!"
I turn myself and open my arms out. She completes the distance and hugs me. I hold her close as everyone claps behind us. I feel a glare on me and I risk a look. If Brittanys eyes could kill I'd be dead. Quinn is even slowly scooting away from her.
I move myself to whisper in Rachel's ear "Rachel I think Brittany wants to kill me" Rachel pulls back and looks at me confused "Look"
Rachel does and cringes "Have I really been that focused on you?" I nod and she takes a step away "Well then I need to fix that!"
-Rachel pov-
I walk away from Santana and down the stage stairs. Quinn takes the chance to escape Brittanys scary atmosphere. It feels like the air around her could kill. She's still halting and Santana when I step beside her.
"Hey baby" I lean down and wrap my arms around her "I'm sorry I've been ignoring you"
I feel her slowly relax into my arms "Just don't do it again" Brittany melts into my arms with a sigh "This feels so amazing"
I chuckle and sit on her lap. She puts her arms around me and pulls me close. This does feel awesome. I don't wanna go any longer without this feeling.
