(Hey everybody, I apologize for not writing Thug Love for a while but I was juggling between that and Rescuing Love and now since I've finished that story, my focus is now on this story. Also I've needed a break from writing to give my brain a rest and now I am ready to focus on this. Thank you for favoring this story and commenting, I appreciate it.)

Santana took Brittany to a small and cozy Italian restaurant on the out skirts of Lima and were greeting by a waitress and sat near the window. Brittany looked around the picturesque restaurant and asked,

"Am I the only one you've taken to Nipoli's?"

Santana answered,

"You are the only one that I've wined and dined with, the others were just play things."

Brittany blushed and replied,

"I am not a plaything?"

Santana took Brittany's hand and kissed it softly and replied,

"No. You are my baby or at least soon to be."

Brittany grinned and said,

"Maybe if you asked me to be your baby then I'll tell you that I want to be your baby."

Santana gulped and asked,

"Brittany, will you be my baby?"

Brittany squeezed Santana's hand and replied,

"Of course but you need to tell me more about yourself."

Santana said as she grabbed the menu,

"I will but let's order first."

Both Santana and Brittany scanned their menus and once the waitress came, they gave their orders and began sipping on their wine. Santana said,

"I just wanna let you know that I am not an easy person to know, I am a tough nut to crack, baby!"

Brittany replied,

"I am very patient, San. I think I can through to you."

Santana replied as she sipped on her red wine,

"You and Quinn are probably the only ones who can."

Brittany asked,

"What about the rest of the gang?"

Santana shook her head and answered,

"Nah, I can't afford to let my guard down around 'em. I am their leader and as much as I love those bitches I just can't show them my weakness."

Brittany said,

"Vulnerability isn't a weakness, it is a turn on. That is why I am attracted to you."

Santana was trying hard not to smile but a smile appeared on her face and she was blushing,

"You will be the death of me, Britt!"

Brittany giggled,

"I know!"

Santana said,

"But I think I'll risk it 'cause I already know you are special. No woman has made me feel like this before; of course I wouldn't let them get too close to me before."

Brittany asked,

"Why?"

Santana answered as began to snack on a breadstick,

"A lot of shit happened in my life which I will eventually share with ya, but let's enjoy tonight baby."

Brittany smiled at Santana which made Santana's hard heart melt and said,

"Okey dokey, San!"

Santana looked at Brittany intensely and said,

"You are so fuckin' cute, Brittany."

Brittany giggled even more,

"I can't help it "cute" is my middle name, actually it is Susan but ya know!"

Santana started to chuckle and shook her head,

"You are something else, babe!"

Brittany winked at Santana and replied,

"I try!"

Santana looked into Brittany's sparking baby blue eyes and thought to herself,

"Britt is the one for me, I just fuckin' know it!"

After several more minutes of teasing, flirting and winking at one another, their food came. Brittany had spaghetti and meatballs while Santana had the vegetable lasagna. While eating Brittany started playing footsies with Santana and Santana almost choked on her food and said while sipping on her water,

"If you think that is going to turn me on then you are correct missy!"

Brittany exclaimed,

"Now look who's being cute!"

Santana responded,

"I am not cute, sexy maybe but not cute!"

Brittany laughed,

"I think you are both!"

Santana and Brittany ate the rest of their dinner in silence while never taking their eyes off one another. After dinner was finished, Santana placed her hands on Brittany's hands and asked,

"Did you want dessert?"

Brittany shook her head and replied,

"No I am one stuffed panda!"

Santana said,

"Ok my lil' panda, let me pay the bill and let us get outta here. I want to take ya someplace where I hang out sometimes."

Santana paid for the dinners and she and Brittany headed out the door and back into the black jaguar. Santana drove them to a hill that overlooked the town of Lima and the Ohio River. Santana got out of the car, so did Brittany and Santana got on top of the hood of the car saying,

"You are the only one who knows my hangout besides Quinn. I come out here to chill out when things get fucked up or when I need to think."

Brittany sat next to Santana on the hood of the car and replied,

"Thank you for trusting me to show me this place. It is beautiful."

Santana shrugged,

"It isn't much to look at but it does make me feel better at the end."

Brittany placed her hand on Santana's knee and said,

"That is all that matters, Santana."

Santana leaned in towards Brittany's face and placed a gentle kiss on Brittany's face and Brittany smiled as she kissed Santana back. Brittany said,

"You are an awesome kisser."

Santana replied as she gazed deeply at Brittany,

"Wasn't much of a kisser until you came along."

Brittany responded as she cuddled herself against Santana,

"I've would've never guess that, because you are so sexy and desirable that you could have anyone."

Santana nuzzled her face in Brittany's hair and replied,

"Maybe but there wasn't any other chick like you until you came along. You are a rare breed, Britt-Britt!"

Brittany giggled,

"I love how you call me Britt-Britt, Sanny. And that was a very nice thing you just said."

Santana inhaled the fragrance of the after smell of Brittany's bubble gum shampoo and replied,

"I mean every word I said; you are one of a kind. You have such a kind and innocent heart. I hope to fuckin' god that I will never hurt you. I will never forgive myself if I do."

Brittany looked up at Santana and noticed tears forming in her dark brown eyes and said,

"Hey now none of that, you won't hurt me or at least not on purpose. We are only human and can't help that. But right now you shouldn't worry about it, this is our first date and you are going to have a nightcap with me. Let's take it from there, sweetie."

Santana said as she wiped the tears from her eyes,

"Yeah. You are so smart."

Brittany kissed Santana and said,

"I don't know about that."

Santana got Brittany on her back and got on top of her, saying,

"You are more than smart, you are a fuckin' genius!"

Santana placed her lips on Brittany's and entered her tongue inside of Brittany's mouth as Brittany wrapped her arms around Santana's shoulders. Both were groaning softly and feeling the heat radiate between them. As they were kissing, Santana's nose brushed against Brittany's and Brittany groaned as her hands roamed to Santana's tight ass squeezing it. Santana bit on Brittany's bottom lip and groaned,

"Fuck!"

After a few more minutes of making out, Brittany pulled away and said,

"Let's go back to my place to have that nightcap."

Santana grinned seductively and said,

"That sounds good, baby."

Santana rolled off Brittany and got into the car with Brittany getting in the passenger's side. As Brittany got into the car, her leg accidental hit the glove compartment and out popped a black pistol that landed at Brittany's face. Brittany's eyes grew wide and she looked at Santana with fear in her eyes and Santana immediately snatched the pistol from the floor and said,

"Baby don't be scared, the gun is locked and I rarely use it."

Brittany asked,

"Then why do you own one?"

Santana replied as she placed her hands on Brittany's face,

"For protection but I promise you that this will be out of your reach, you won't be harmed. Do you trust me, Britt?"

Brittany nodded and answered,

"I do. It's just guns scare me, they kill and hurt people."

Santana took Brittany's hand, kissed it and said,

"I will be very careful around you, Britt-Britt. There is no need to be scared or anything, I'll protect you."

Brittany asked, "You promise?"

Santana replied, "I promise."
