"Well, now thats a story." Santana says.
I turn to look at her. "Bad?" I ask testing the waters, i have no clue where we stand right now.
"Well after we left you, we ran towards the autotorium. Puck saw the choir room and suggested we go in and check." Quinn says.
"We go in and look around. No Santana or Krofsky. So we keep going." Puck says.
"But we were talking. At first i was bitching to him about how you got shot, but then we kept talking, and well." Quinn said.
"Umm, we well." Puck said stalling. I looked between both of them. Both blushing and not making eye contact.
"The two started to make out. Like no fucks given they just jumped eachothers bones. While looking for me might I add, also while there was a shooter on the loose." Santana says.
"To be fair we had no clue you were in the room." Puck said in defense.
"Thank god i revealed myself before you guys started to rip off your clothes." Santana said rolling her eyes.
"So we found this bitch inside the choir room. We were going to head back to the hall we agreed to meet at, but we heard shots and footsteps, so we hid in here." Quinn said.
I was still shocked at the fact Puck finally made a move on Q. "No fucking way." I say smiling.
"Oh yea." Puck says fist pumping me.
"I fucking told you, and today of all days you grow the balls and ask her out." I say laughing.
"You told him what?" Quinn asked raising an eyebrow.
Oh shit, I wasn't supposed to tell Puck about her little crush. "Um, how did you know it was me outside?" I ask trying to change the subject.
Santana just laughs, she knows Quinn will rip me a knew one with this info.
"We knew it was you, well first the guys were outside. We heard the door bang and while these two were being nosey, i was on Santanas phone when i noticed your tracker thing was on and it was you. So we pulled you in and here we are." Puck says as he holds up Santanas phone.
"First off, why do you have MY phone. Second, how the fuck did you get inside it?" Santana asked leaning forward to grab it out of his hold.
"Well you should change your password from Britts birthday. Also, nice pics." Puck says winking.
Quinn laughs and Santana just snarls. "I forgot to change it, gosh." She says rolling her eyes, but i can see her blushing.
"Yea okay." Puck says still laughing.
"Well tell me what happened from when you and Krofsky left Puck and I." I asked Santana.
She looked at me and sighed. "Fine, we left you guys heading for the audotorium, Dave was acting, weird. I wanted to go back but he wouldn't let me. He said we had to get away from you guys, as far as possible. He wanted to hide me in Shues class but i said no. When he tried to pull me, i pushed him off. He got really angry and we heard more shots. He grabbed my arm tightly and pushed me into a class telling me to stay. He wouldn't let me leave. After he left i booked it, i was hoping to get to the cafe or something but i saw these two guys and booked it into the choir room. I was there for about 10 minutes until people walked in and almost blinded me with there obscured idea to make out and fuck in the open." She said shrugging.
"Thats it? Did Krofsky say anything else?" I ask.
"No, but i didnt like how he was acting." She said.
"What are you thinking?" Quinn asked me.
"I dont know." I said quietly.
"Wait, those guys out there said they were looking for you. And were told to shoot you?" Puck asked. I just nodded. "So what enemy's do you have?" He asked.
"Um, well besides Santana the only one i could think of is Krofsky." I said looking up to him.
I hear another scoof. "Please, im not your enemy." Santana hissed at me.
"Of course you are, you hate me and call me names everyday. What else would that be called?" I asked.
"Did I ever tell you to your face that I hate you? Because I don't recall doing so." She snaps back.
"Listen here, you start all this shit then blame me for it. Like what did I ever do to you!" I ask back.
"You did everything to me! You fucked something good up and acted dumb. And the worst part is that I let you in, I exposed myself to you and you abused that! Sometimes I wish I had never met you!" Santana finishes. Both Puck and Quinn have their jaws dropped listening to what Santana is saying.
"First off, what the fuck did I screw up? Last I recall you dropped me. Ignored me out of the blue, and whenever I would try to call you, text you, even approach you, you were mean and calling me names. So please tell me what I fucked up." I shout to her.
"Everything. I cant belive your acting dumb with this! You fucking slept with Emily, and pretended it never happened. I saw you two get closer, and then when I dropped you for cheating you go and continue to fuck her!" Santana says shouting back to me.
Let me tell you, I am beyond shocked. Quinn and Puck are still frozen to their spots watching us argue. And to be honest, I dont think I can handle this anymore. I stand up and start walking to the door.
"Where the fuck are you going?" Puck asks running up to me, stopping me from reaching the door.
"Leaving, im clearly not welcomed here." I say casually.
"Yea, your probably just running back to Emily, I wouldn't be surprised if you were gonna fuck her." Santana said as she also got up. Followed by Quinn.
That was it, that was the last straw. I quickly turn and walk towards Santana. I know I have an angry face on, because I can see a little fear in her eye as I approach. I do have the height advantage, and from all the weight room, I for sure have the muscle.
"You know what Santana, im gonna be honest with you." I say as im about a foot away, she starts to slowly back up. "I dont know what the fuck your talking about, I never once in my life cheated on you. In fact, when I was dating you I never even thought of another female. Not even looked. Wana know why? Because to me, you were everything. You were enough, beautiful, smart, funny, sexy, fun, but you clearly didn't see the love I had for you. Because you made this fucked up scenario up in your head. You didnt even tell me this shit! You just dropped me and turned bitch mode on the next day. What the fuck was I supposed to do? Of course I eventually went to Emily, because you dropped me, and I didnt even start fucking her till like 2 months after we, I guess you can say, 'broke up'. So please, keep telling me how much I fucked up!" I finish. I was so angry that I didn't even know that I now had Santana up against a wall with me standing a foot in front of her.
I watched her just stand there and stare at me. Her breathing had changed, you could see her chest rise and fall. She looked confused, probably the same as me. "You didnt cheat?" She asked. It was almost a whisper.
I shook my head. "No, why would I ever cheat? You are literally perfect to me." I say softening my look.
"But Dave told me he walked in on you two having sex at one of Pucks partys. He also said you would brag about me and Emily during your workout sessions." Santana says confused.
Puck sighs and slaps his forehead with his hand. I bring both my hands to my face and also sigh in frustration. I turn and start to pace.
"This is great." I say sarcastically. "You know, I can see with what you are saying. But like, why in the world would you ever choose to listen to Krofsky, hes the definition of idiot." I say getting frustrated.
"I mean-" she says as I cut her off.
"I just think the worst part was that you never came to me and asked if this was true. Because we could have avoided this all if you did. But no your usual bitchy self decided he was right and that I would actually do that." I say getting angrier by the second.
"Listen B, its just all one big miss communication." Puck says trying to calm everyone down.
"No Puck, I dont care. Why the fuck would you think I would cheat on you? Did I give you those vibes, could you not trust me?" I asked, tears back in my eyes.
"No, no, no, no. Its not that I didn't trust you. Dave just came to me and he was really serious, he told me he walked in on you and Emily and you bribed him not to say anything to me. He told me you had been doing it for like a month with her. And that during your practices you guys would sneak off and do stuff. I-I didnt think he would lie, because it was such a big story. Like he would have to plan it all before hand." She says walking up to me. She placed a hand on each of my cheeks and used her thumbs to wipe away my tears.
"But why didnt you come to me? I would have told you it wasn't true. We could be happy right now!" I say back frustrated.
I notice her starting to cry as well. "I- I'm sorry, I dont know why I believed him, I was just so scared of getting hurt that I thought I could hurt you more before you could use this against me. I didn't want to hurt you, gosh Britt. It hurt more to be rude to you then anything else. I dont know why I let him get to me, I was so stupid. I should have talked to you." she said fully crying. And when Santana cries she will hiccup and everything. Its so fucking cute when she does it.
"I was just used to people cheating on me, or just using me. I thought we had something real and then im told you were cheating, I think something just turned in me. I got so angry. I didn't want to be abandoned again." She continued to say, still having tears streaming down her face.
Fuck, one thing I forgot to mention is that Santanas family basically abandons her. They are always away traveling for work. She has no siblings or aunts, uncles, or even cousins. She is fully alone, thats why she's so close with Puck and Q. And was with me. I can see why she acted this way. Before me and her got together, all the guys would use her for sex. I was of course her friend, but I could never tell her right from wrong, it was never my place.
I watch as Santana stands so small, hugging herself. She has tears going down her face and even her neck. She's hiccuping and shaking. I cant watch her be like this, its legit breaking my heart. So I quickly embrace her in a hug. My arms go around her waist and her arms go around my neck, she burries her face into my neck and just sobs.
"Gosh Britt, I was so miserable without you. You were the best part of my day. I was so happy, even to show up to school because you would be there. Then I turned into a stupid bitch and lost it all." She cried into my chest.
"Shhhhh, no its not your fault. Its all fucking Krofskys fault. And I'm gonna fuck him up when I see him.
"No it is my fault, even though I felt hurt I should have asked you. I knew you would never do it, but, I don't even know. I couldn't get hurt again, not from you. I would have been broken." She said looking up to me.
I look down and wipe her tars away. "Its okay, it wasn't your fault." I say tightening my hold on her. I give her forehead a long kiss. Fuck did I miss this contact with her. Her smell and everything. She just fits perfectly into my arms. Like we were made for each other.
"We should have brought popcorn." I hear Puck whisper. I look over to him getting slapped in the arm by Quinn. I give him a glare.
"Shut up! There making up, we have wanted this for months now! Dont ruin it." Quinn hisses to him.
I turn to respond to Puck when Santana tightens her hold on me. She barley whispers to where only I can hear. "Please don't leave me."
I almost cry at those words. I tighten my hold and kiss her forehead again. "Never." Is all I can say. I really want to kiss her right now, but its not the time.
"Listen Puck. I know its crazy, but I still think its Krofsky. He has hated me for years, I don't even know why. He clearly turned me and San against eachother. He stole her from me. Then he gives me these threats, and today? He was being to weird." I say looking to Puck.
"No i agree. But I have no clue who the fuck the other guys are." Puck says.
"Maybe he did hire them?" Quinn asked.
"Did you say he threatens you?" Santana asked from my chest. We all looked to her.
"Um yea. Quite often." I say.
"Biggest one was today with that workout machine. He was basically strangling you. Then had the balls to run to Santana and tattle tale." Puck said laughing.
Santana slowly let go and looked up to me. "What actually happened in the weight room?" She asked.
"We were working out, and what the guys do is talk about who they are with. For some reason Krofsky just likes to go into detail, which I didn't like hearing. He brought up incorrect information on the female body and I corrected him. Thats all, then he almost killed me. But I remember him saying he was coming for me, before me and Puck could leave." I say shrugging. "Why what did he tell you?" I asked.
Santana lets go of me and walks to a chair. "He said you were talking shit about me. Shaming me, like my body. Calling me names. Then he brought shit up about us. Saying you bragged to him in detail of our past with sex. And that you would tell everyone secrets about my body. I had no idea he was making it all up." she said frusteratedly.
"So like everytime you acted out to Britt at school?" Puck asked.
"Yea he would come tell me that Britt was talking shit and a bunch of other stuff." She says. "Or say he just saw her and Emily making out or fucking in the halls." She looks down to her hands.
"I cant belive that asshole, he actually did that shit?" Quinn asked shocked.
"And when I see him again I'm gonna fuck him up." I say clenching my fists and starting to pace again.
"As much as I hate Dave right now Britt, I don't want you to get hurt. What if he is one of the shooters, he will have a gun. Its too dangerous." Santana says.
No San, I don't give a fuck anymore. Hes been starting shit with me for who knows how long. He literally took you from me. I won't just let him win, or at least leave without a scratch." I say pacing again.
"Well lets just think about this. Britt, you already got shot. And you in pretty bad shape." Quinn says jesturing to my face.
"Well I for one will help B, that fucker deserves to get a beating. Especially for what he did to my sister and bro." Puck says as he uses one of his fists to punch his other hands palm.
A nod my head in agreement. I'm still pacing back and forth. If I stop i might punch something.
"Please B, please calm down." Santana says walking up to me. "Your starting to freak me out."
"I cant, im so angry right now. Like how has nothing happend to this idiot? The school has done nothing about his bullying or how he acts. Like today in the weight room, I know coach saw him pushing it down. But she waited until he put on a bright smile. Ugh, im gonna break something." I say still pacing. My fists and teeth are clenched.
I feel someone grip my arm, stopping me from pacing. "Please stop. Just take a breath and thin-" She says as she's interrupted by nocking at the door.
"Nock, Nock, Nock, Nock"
"San are you in here? San?" I hear Krofsky say through the door.
Out of reflex I grab Santanas waist and pull us over behind some desks. Pulling us both to our knees to hide. I look over and see Q and Puck doing the same on the other side of the room.
"Shit! He found us!" Santana whispers to me. I can tell she's scared. She's gripping onto the bottom of my hoodie, like I mean a death grip.
"Shhh its okay, he doesn't know were in here." I say looking over the table to the door.
"Santana I know your in here. Your tracker is on." He says.
"Fuck!" Me and Puck hiss out.
"What are we going to do?" Santana asked. Her voices changed from confidence to fear. "Why does he want me?" She asked.
"I dont know. But I think he's trying to keep you from me. Wanting you far away as possible, probably because their gonna shoot me." I say looking back to Puck.
Santana grabs the collar of my sweater and tugs it so I'm leaning into her. "Dont say that! Your not getting shot. Again." She says forcefully then pushes me back, letting go of my sweater.
"Okay. I'm sorry." I say as I see Puck and Q crawling over to us.
"Whats the plan?" Puck asks.
"Nock, Nock, Nock." "Santana open up. I told you to stay in that class!" He somewhat yelled into the door.
I felt Santana jump a bit, then she grabs one of my hands, holding tightly. I squeeze it as if telling her I won't let him hurt her.
"Okay, I can only think of one thing. You two hide and I will also hide. Santana is gonna stay in here-." I say as Santana cuts me off.
"No way in hell am I going to be alone with him again!" She hisses.
Then we can hear Krofsky starting to kick the door. "Open up Santana or ill break the door!"
"Its okay, i have a plan. Me and Puck will hide close to the door, and if he gets aggressive with you then we will take him. Quinn will be ready to jump in and help you. We just need to disarm him and maybe knock him out." I saw looking to Puck.
Puck nods his head and gets up pulling Quinn with him. He brings her over to a hiding spot where she will be safe.
"Okay, just stay here, I'm gonna hide by the door." I say standing up as Santana pulls me back down.
"No, please. Don't leave me. I- I'm scared to be alone with him." She said pulling me closer to her.
"I promise i won't let him touch you, as soon as he gets near you, me and Puck will take him down." I say standing up again.
I turn to walk and I see Puck still talking to Q. Wait! Are they kissing right now? I'm so caught off guard that I didn't notice Santana stand up and follow me.
We got to the teachers desk when she grabs my arm and spins me around. Fuck am I dizzy.
Just as im about to ask her what she's doing, I feel her grab my face and pull me close. Last thing I know is were now kissing.
I freeze at first in shock. But then my reflexes kick in and I put one arm around her waist pulling her closer to me as my other hand grabs her face. It started off slowly, then progressed.
Holy fuck! Shes kissing me right now, I have been dreaming about this for months. Her lips are so soft and luscious. It feels like fireworks, and I swear time has stopped. We continue kissing until we need to breathe.
We pull apart slowly, both breathing heavily. I rest my forehead against hers and sigh. "Wow." Is all I can say.
She just looks deeply into my eyes. "I love you B."
I swear my heart stopped. I just stared at her, unable to move, speak, breathe or even blink.
"B?" She asks again.
"SANTANA! If you don't open this door right now, I swear you'll regret it!" Dave screams from the other side.
We both jump from how loud he screamed. I looked over to Puck and Q to see then shocked as well.
I turn back to Santana and grab her shoulders. "I need to go hide okay? Don't worry, you'll be oka-." I say as im interrupted by the door literally being broken down.
I see Puck duck back down beside Quinn. I stand there frozen. Shit I really thought I had more time. Santana quickly pulls me down and shoves me under the teachers desk. She sat down in the chair blocking me in.
The desk was the same from the one we found Santana hiding under earlier.
Everything happened so fast that I hit my head on the table on my way down to being shoved underneath it.
"Shit!" I whisper out as I grab my forhead.
"Santana what the fuck are you doing? I told you to stay in the other room, it was safe!" He said to her in a firm tone.
"I didnt want to stay there. Dont you know there's a shooter in the school?" She replied back.
"Ha, you don't even know the half of it. Get up, we need to keep moving." He said walking up to her. I noticed Santanas body tense in the seat. She was uncomfortable.
"No! Let's stay here, its safe." She said.
"No, we need to keep moving. There coming this way. Its the only hall left to look for that bitch." He says jesturing for Santana to follow him.
"What bitch?" She asked.
Oh God, this is not good. If she passes him off then he might hurt her. I try to give her a signal to not talk back. So I place my right hand on her thigh. I feel her jolt at first but she then relaxes.
"It doesn't matter, lets go!" He demands.
"Wait! Who's coming? Dave im not with your bull shit right now, okay? So tell me what the fuck is going on! Or your going on your own." She snarls back to him.
The room goes quiet, until I hear some rustling and the sound of a gun loading.
"All you had to do was be a good girl and listen Santana. But like usual, you had to be an annoying bitch and ruin everything." Dave says in a snarl.
I hear Santana gasp and her hands dart under the table to grab at mine. I peek from under the table and just see the tip of the gun, pointed strait at Santana.
Fuck! This was not the plan.
"What the fuck are you doing! Show me your hands!" He demands. Santana being the smart bitch she is slowly brings her hands out. She manages to grab her phone on the way. She places her hands on top of the desk. "There, happy?" She asks with her usual tone.
"Oh honey, I would be happy if that bitch you call an ex would come out from hiding. Then I can really tell her how I feel, but for some reason she thinks we're playing hade n seek in the school."
"Why do you want to hurt Brittany?"
"Oh, now you care for that slut? What about everything you told me? How you wish you never met her, or how about the one where you wished she would be dead? Huh?" He asked.
"I- I didn't mean that. I was just upset in the moment."
"Oh? Well babe, I just wanted to give you your wish. But I can't seem to fine her. Don't worry though, I have people helping."
"What the fuck Dave? Why are you doing this?"
"Because, that bitch needs to learn that she isn't top shit! I loved you first! I had first dibs on you, but for some reason you chose that whore instead. What the hell could you get from her? Shes pathetic, a loser, she has no one. Except for Puckerman and that slut Quinn Fabray."
I can hear rustling from where Puck and Q are. I swear Puck, dont fuck this up!
"I was close already. I was about to end her at practice but coach had to fuck it up. So my second chance came around and I got a shot in, but it missed and hit her shoulder. But don't worry sweetheart I will make sure the deed is done properly. And better yet, ill let you watch it."
I can hear Santana start to cry. "Why the fuck would I want to watch it. Your a sick bastered."
"Oh don't cry honey, don't cry. Plus I wouldn't push your luck if I was you, I am the one with the gun." He said resting the tip against her forehead.
I look up to her closing her eyes. The tears streaming. "I love you." She whispers. I know she's saying this to me, but Krofsky just has to be a dick.
"I know baby, I know. But you know to much, and you seem to, oh I don't know, have feelings for the bitch. Which I could never understand why. She cheated on you, and did so many bad things. You cried about her every night. She broke your heart, betrayed you. She did this to you on purpose. She never liked you, she was just using you. It was all just a sick joke to her, she told me herself. She even said she wanted to leave you just like your parents did."
I growl to myself under the desk. Oh this ass hole is pushing it. ohhh how I wish I could just fuck him up. I'm so tempted to do something.
"No, your lying. She would never do that to me." Santana said weakly.
I heard Krofsky laugh. "Oh poor poor Santana. Your so oblivious. I wish you would trust me." He said pushing her head back a bit with the gun. "Now get up! Were leaving!" He demanded.
I waited for Santana to do anything.
"No you ass hole." Santana yelled back.
I'm waiting for his response, but instead I see him grab Santanas hair and pull her forwards. Causing her to cry again, much louder then before. "Listen here bitch! Your coming with me, wither if its you walking or me pulling you by your hair. Now get the fuck up!" He says growling.
I can see Santana get tugged to her feet by her hair. But I see her resisting. Fuck, just listen to him. I don't want you to get hurt.
I wait for Krofsky to say something but I hear a loud slap instead, then I see Santana fall to the floor.
"I said get up and come! I will drag your pathetic ass if I need to, dont test me!" He yells out. I look to Santana who is holding her cheek. She is so small compared to him, that I'm not surprised the power in his slap nocked her over. Shes still crying and shaking her head.
I watch as Krofsky goes for another slap, and I just see red. I dont know what is happening but I feel my body get this rush of energy and I act on it.
I kick the desk making it slide from over me. The sound distracts Krofsky from Santana. He turns to me in shock as I Get up and run to him, tackling him to the ground.
I'm picking him in the face, left, right, left, right. I cant even hear anything im just seeing red.
He gets a good punch in distracting me enough to roll us. I try to block as many shots as possible but he's bigger then me.
I'm about to punch his stomach when Puck comes in from behind and pull Krofsky off and to the ground. He gets a few Punches in as I recover. I look over to see Quinn pulling Santana further away from us. Santana was screaming while trying to fight Quinns hold.
I turn back in time to see Krofsky deck Puck in the head with the the bud of the gun. Puck drops to the ground lifeless. I can hear Quinn gasp behind me.
Krofsky turns to me and points the gun right at my face. He's standing across the room breathing heavily.
"Well well well, what have we here? Santana babe, were you really hiding her? And you didn't tell me?" He asked pointing the gun to her.
I quickly step forward to distract him. "Wait! You here for me, right? So take me, just leave these three alone and ill go with you willingly." I say. Im so scared right now, Puck is knocked out and I can't let him hurt Q or San.
"Oh, were brave aren't we? Are you trying to impress someone?" He asks taunting me.
"No! But I won't let you kill anyone else, not if you want me! So just take me and leave them!" I yell to him.
"Okay, if you insist." He says readying the gun, ready to shoot me. "But let's give out a little show since we're here." He chuckle out.
"No! Dave lets just go! Just me and you, we can leave or do whatever you want. Don't kill her." Santana yells out.
"What? Shut up Santana!" I yell back.
"No! I'm serious, Dave please. let's just leave town, go somewhere else. Anywhere. My family won't mind, an- and you say you live me. So let's go. Well start a new life where I'm yours. I promise." Santana yells back.
I cant belive what she's saying right now.
"Anything?" He asks. Santana just nods back.
He thinks about it for a second. "Do you love me? Tell me how much you love me, and how little this bitch means to you." He tells her.
I look to Santana who's staring at Dave. "I live you Dave, so much. I would choose you over this slut any day. You know that, she means nothing to me. In fact, I- I was going to trick her into falling for me again. Yea, an- and I was going to hurt her like she hurt me. My cheating." She finished looking to me with a smirk.
I look to her with a confused look. I feel so betrayed right now. There is no way that's true, we just kissed. She said she loved me, she would never do this. But, then she's doing that smirk. She does that smirk when she's fucking with people. She looks so serious right now. I- I cant even look to her. Fuck now I'm crying. I cant help myself.
Krofsky notices and chuckles. "Ohhh, I see. You already started by the look of it. Look at this pathetic bitch! Crying already." Krofsky says fully laughing now. "Wow babe, you did good. You must have done something to make her belive you, look, she cant even look to you."
"Oh yea, I told her I loved her. But look how gullible she was, she believed me just with 3 words. I had her trust and everything." Santana said laughing.
"San!" I hear Quinn hiss to her.
"No Q! This bitch needed to learn her lesson, and she finally did." Santana said standing up. She started to walk towards Krofsky.
"Good job babe." He said checking her out. Ugh, this is disgusting, he should not be allowed to check her out!
"So, can we just go? Me and you? Leave this loser, who will never have love again. Isint that a good enough punishment?" She said dragging her hand from his shoulder to his hand.
"Dam babe, you are one wicked girl. But I guess that could work." He said grabbing her and hugging her. He grabbed her ass and squeezed it right infront of me. "See Pierce, the girl knows whats better. And it's not you." They started to walk towards the door. But a sound stopped Krofsky.
We could hear some footsteps approaching from the hall. Like a lot of footsteps. Maybe 5 or 6 people. Then everything clicked.
"Is that the police?" Krofsky asked.
Quinn lifted her phone from being her, showing the screen which read 911 on it. "Yup, and your fucked." She said.
Krofsky turned grabbing Santanas arm. "You bitch! You tricked me!" He yelled shoving her back. "Oh, your all fucked now!" He yelled pointing the gun to Santana.
In this moment my world froze. No matter if Santana meant what she said or not, I love her. I cant see her get shot in front of me, or even Quinn. Without even thinking I take off running toward them. Just as Krofsky pulls the trigger I push Santana to the floor and block her from the shot.
I can hear the cops yelling to Krofsky to put the gun down.
I feel a sharp pain go through the left side of my abdomen. I look down to see blood. A lot of blood. Slowly I fall to my knees. I cant move or even blink. I got shot, again.
I quickly started to get light headed and nauseos. I fell onto my back trying to catch my breathe. The only thing I could see was the ceiling. I couldn't turn my head or even lift my arms. I could hear the police yelling to Krofsky to get on the ground. I heard Quinn scream from behind me.
My eyes started to get heavier as I prayed Santana was okay. And as if my prayers were heard, she appeared in my vision. I could see her crying and it looked like she was screaming something to me. I could feel her press her hands to my stomach and it hurt at first. But then I couldn't feel anything, or hear anymore. My eyes started to get heavy, but I saw her looking from my stomach to my eyes. I tried to read her lips but I couldn't make out what she was saying. My eyes fluttered shut, but I tried to keep them open. I would do anything to be able to just stare into those beautiful eyes. Next thing I knew, I was seeing black.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Beep, Beep, Beep.
Fuck, what the hell is that sound?
Beep, Beep, Beep.
Why is it so loud? Where the fuck am I? Thats not my alarm is it? I reach over to turn it off, but I realize I'm not actually moving. What the actual fuck, someone better turn that shit off. I'm so tired, I can barley open my eyes.
I slowly open my right eye, just barley enough to see anything. All I see is a bright light. Shit, that was a bad idea. Didn't I close my blinds last night?
Fuck I dont know. I try to open both my eyes this time and all I see is brightness. I fight through it and my vision is blurry. I keep blinking until my vision is clear.
Where the fuck am I? No actually, cus this is not my room. Shit! Did I get blackout drunk at Puck party again? Maybe I'm in a girls room.
I look down to see if i still have my clothes on, and what. the. fuck.
I'm in a gown? What is this a joke? I tilt my heard to the right and see a bunch on machines. Oh, thats whats beeping. I track the tubes that go from the machines to my body. Oh.
I'm in a hospital. Wait what happened? I- I cant remember anything. I suddenly get a wave of nausea and go to touch my head with my left hand, but its really heavy. I look over and see someone sitting beside my bed. Their holding my hand with both of theirs and they are resting their head on the bed.
I go to speak but my throat is so dry, fuck I need water. I look over the girls body and see Puck laying down on a couch. He looks like he's sleeping but I can't tell, he's got his hat covering his face. I try to grunt but that just hurts.
I look around the room again. Gosh is it boring. Hospitals gotta give some life to the rooms, no wonder people die. Something catches my eye and I look to the door. At first I see Dark hair and tan skin. My heart starts to speed up and I get butterflies.
"Guys get up! Shes awake!" Says Emily.
I get a little disappointed, its not the right girl. But I smile anyways because I love Emily, but just as a friend.
The bed shifts beside me, and the girl lifts her head. Oh fuck its Q. Her eyes are dark, it looks like she hasn't slept in days. Then I watch as Emily throws something at Puck, who sits up from the object hitting him right in the face.
Holly shit, but I didnt notice Pucks huge bruise. Wonder where he got that from.
I feel Quinn squeeze my hand. "Thank god your awake. Puck, go get a nurse!" Quinn says to which Puck gets up and rushes put of the room. I let out a little chuckle but wince in pain.
I look down to my stomach and frown. "Hold on." Quinn says walking to a side table pouring water. She grabbed a straw and singnald me to drink some. I gladly did so, boy did it feel good.
"How are you feeling?" Emily asks from my right.
"Okay." I croak out. "What happened?" I asked just as the doctor and Puck walked in.
"Mrs. Pierce, thanks for joining us today. We were getting a little worried for a second there."
What the fuck does that mean. My face must display a confused look because the doctor starts explaining himself.
"Mrs. Pierce Im Dr Grey, I dont know if you remember but you were in an accident. A school shooting to be exact. You took a bullet to the right shoulder, but luckily it went right through not hitting any bones or nerves. You also were shot in your lower left abdomen. You were very lucky because the bullet just missed your stomach and left kidney. You also have some bruising to the right cheek on your face and a nasty split left eyebrow. Both your bullet wounds will heal back up to 100%. It will just take some time. Do you remember any of this?" Dr Grey asks me.
I shake my head.
"Thats okay, sometimes when the body takes on serious trauma you develop a temporary memory loss called amnesia. It will go away in the next few days since you had no serious trauma to the head." He said then looked to Quinn. "Does Mrs. Pierce have a parent here?"
Quinn shook her head. "No, But I'm 18 and I'm on her medical information." Quinn says.
"Okay ill just inform you on all the medical information since Brittany here is probably still a little drowsy." The Doctor continued.
I started to zone out as he went into the details on how to clean my wounds and how ill need 24 hour attention at home. Great, thats the last place I wana be right now. I keep looking for those chocolate eyes. Where is she? Did she really mean what she said, no that can't be. She has to be here. Why isn't she here?
"Mrs. Pierce?" Dr calls.
I look over to him with watery eyes.
"Brittany, your going to be okay. I informed Quinn her on your recovery plan. I think Mr. Puckerman and Mrs. Fields agreed to help out." He said smiling. "Ill go get your prescriptions and be right back. The nurse will help you with all the tubes, okay?" He asks.
I nod my head.
"Great." He says clapping his hands and exiting the room.
As soon as hes gone I feel Quinn hugging me. "Thank god your okay. You bitch! You scared me half to death." She says angerly but I know she not angry.
"What the hell even happened? Britt, last I saw you, you only had one bullet wound. You said you would be cautious!" Emily said in the exact same tone.
I couldn't even respond, because Puck cut in. "Hey bro, I dont know what happened either." He said pointing to the bruise on his forehead. "But I do know that chicks like scars. And you got some sick ass scars." Puck said fist pumping my left hand. I laugh but wince in pain again.
Quinn and Emily both throw something at him.
"You ass." Dick head." They both say at the same time. I just smile. Thank god my friend are here. I dont know what I would do, my mother is useless and wouldn't even bother. I dont even know where she is, she hasn't been to the house in 4 days.
Wait! Fuck, Dylan. I forgot about Dylan, how could I. I go to sit up but Quinn stops me.
"Woah slow down. We have to wait for the nurses to return, okay?"
"Bu Dylan, what about her." I say still trying to sit up. But Emily places her hand on my chest. I cant even move, what the fuck is this. I'm not some weak bitch.
"Shes okay." Quinn says.
"What happend?" I ask.
I look to all three of them, they all avoid the question.
"B, lets wait a bit for that one." Puck says from the end of my bed.
"Shit! I have to go home, Dylan must be wondering where I am. I was supposed to pick her up from school and everything." I say trying to get up again.
Quinn stops me once again. "B stop. Listen, Dylan is fine I promise. Do you know what day it is?" She asks.
Why the fuck is she asking em this? "Yea its fucking October 10th." I say annoyed. This isint a time for questions.
"No B, its October 17th." Puck says from the end of the bed.
My eyes bug out. What the fuck do they mean its the 17th? Today is the 10th, we had school, and the shooting."
"You have been in a coma for 7 days." Emily says without making eye contact.
"7 days?" I asked, okay now I'm freaking out.
"B, you lost a lot of blood. Not only were you low from the first bullet wound, but the second one basically dried you out. You needed 3 blood transfusions. They didn't think you would survive the surgery." Quinn says tearing up. "They told us to prepare for the worst. You were so pale Britt, like you had no blood in you. And your heart stopped on while you layed on the floor of the class room. Why the fuck would you jump in front of the bullet?"
"Bacuase I couldn't let him shoot her. Where is she?" I asked.
All three of them didn't look to me. This only made me frusturated.
"Hello? Where is Santana?" I asked again.
"She was here the first 3 days, but we dont know. She won't respond to our texts or anything." Puck said sadly. He looked like a kicked puppy.
I tried to not let the tears fall down my face but I failed. I sniffled catching everyone's attention.
"I- Is she okay? Did she get hurt?"
"No B, shes okay. Shes going to be scarred for the rest of her life though. You basically died in her arms." Quinn said.
I wiped my tears away and looked out the window.
"Could you guys leave the room." I said. I really didn't want them to leave, but I couldn't let them watch me cry like a baby.
"No B, please." Quinn begged.
"Just leave." I say angerly.
I see Emily nod her head. "Okay, well give you a few minutes. Well be in the hall if you need us." She said Walking to the door, with Quinn. They had to Pull Puck with them.
As soon as they close the door I burst into tears.
I feel so alone right now. My own mother won't bother to see me. I cant get to Dylan. The love of my life is Afk. Thank god my 3 best friends are here.
I just wana go home and lay in my bed forever. I hear a nock at the door and I wipe my tears.
"Q I meant it. Please leave me alone." I say as I close my eyes. I hear the door open and footsteps. Then the door closes. "Im serious Q!" I firmly say. I look over to the door to see Dylan standing there with Santana right behind her holding a bouqete of flowers.
Santana is frozen in her spot with her jaw dropped. Dylan on the other hand has the brightest smile on her face. She then books it over to me.
"Britt! Britt your awake. Oh my God, I'm so happy. I missed you so much. I have so much to tell you!" She says jumping on the bed beside me. I watch in amusement as she is so excited to see me. Then I look over to Santana who is still frozen in the spot.
"I made a new friend at school and we did this cool science experiment." She went on about what I had missed, but I couldn't pull my eyes away from Santana who seemed to be in the same problem.
"Thats nice Dylan, I missed you so much. But could you give me and Santana a few minutes alone?" I ask her.
Dylan know me and Santana dated, we used to watch her for my mom. In fact, Dylan is like in love with Santana. Sometimes I think she likes her more then me. Dylan wouldn't talk to me for a whole 4 days when I told her Santana ans I broke up.
Dylan nods and gets up. "Yea ill go wait in the hall." She says with a smile. Once she's gone I look back to Santana.
"Hi." I say.
"H- hi." She reply's back. She places the flowers down and walks a bit closer.
"How are you?" I ask. Gosh is it weird how much I want to be near her right now?
"Me? You wana know how I am? Your the one thats hurt Britt." She said closing the distance from herself and the side on my bed.
"Yea I know, but I was worried about you." I say reaching for her hand.
She flinched a bit and I wasn't able to grab her hand. I frown at the action. When I look up to her face, she's crying.
"Whats wrong? Did I do something?" I ask confused.
"No, no its not you. Its just, you scared me so much B. Like when I saw you get shot and fall to the ground, my heart stopped. You died in my arms. The paramedics found a rhythm on the drive to the hospital. But you lost so much blood." She said in full tars now. "The Doc said to prepare for the worst. Its rare to recover from this much blood loss. You were in a coma for 7 days Britt. 2 more and they would have pulled your plug. I, I just couldn't be here. But then Dylan asked to come see you and I couldn't say no. Ugh, im so mad at you right now. Like seriously. I was supposed to get shot, but you just had to push me out of the way." She said now pacing.
I'm amused and confused while also a little scared. I'm sorry, but I couldn't see you die. Not from that ass hole. Plus I dont blame you for any of this." I say reaching for her hand again. This time I grab it and pull her closer.
"Not even for what I said about you? From right before you got shot?" She asked.
"Na, as soon as I heard the cops I put 2 and 2 together. I figured you were stalling. But what I really want to talk about is those 3 words you did tell me. Please tell me I didn't imagine that, or the kiss." I beg her.
She just laughs and sits on the bed. "No that happened." She said smiling.
"And that wasn't a cover up right?" I asked again.
"Nope, that was 100% me confessing my live to you." she said looking down to her hands.
I smiled and pulled her down with my left hand. I emedielty kissed her. We slowly pulled away resting our foreheads together. "Wow." Is all she says.
"I love you, so much. I think I never stopped loving you." I say closing my eyes and just taking in the presence of her being there.
She laughs. "Thank god, I thought you would hate me after I said that." She laughed out. She kissed me back. It felt so right to be right here, with her.
We got interupted with Dylan running back in. "Hey, its been over a minute." She says running over to us.
"Im sorry Dylan, your right." I say laughing. Santana just smiled as she watches Dylan.
"So when are you coming home?" Dylan asked.
"Well as soon as the nurses come in and discharge me I can leave. Hows the house and mom?
"I dont know, I've been staying at Santanas for a week." she said shrugging. I looked over to Santana who looked almost shy.
"Well after they took you to the hospital, they wouldn't tell me anything. So I went home and like cried the whole day away. The next day the thought of Dylan just sprung in me. I went over to see if anyone had told her and she said your mom hasn't been home in a while. So I brought her to mine to stay with until you woke up. I hope you didn't mine, but I thought she would prefer some company. Plus I helped me to process this whole thing." She explained.
I just smiled to her. "No, thats perfect. Do I get to move in to?" I asked playfully.
She just smiles. "If you want to, I mean I'm all alone in my house so why not?" She says when Dylan screams in excitement.
"Were moving in with Sanny?"
"Yea-" I say when voices interupt me.
"Puck she said to leave her." I can hear Quinn scold him.
"Yea but she just got attacked, im sure she wants some people around. And were her only family, so we should be ther-." He says as he freezes in his spot.
Quinn walk in behind him. "Why did you- San?" Quinn askes when she sees Santana beside me.
"Quinny!" Dylan screams and runs over.
"Hey munchkin. Gosh you have groan." She says hugging her. Puck just rubs the top of her head.
"Hey kid, how you been?" Puck asks.
:Good, me and Sanny came to visit Britt and look. Shes awake." Dylan said excitedly.
"Yes she is. Isint that amazing." Quinn says walking over to us.
"Well the doctor says your clear to go, we signed your papers. There gonna be in here to un hook you from the bots." Puck said grabbing our stuff.
"Is it okay if we go to Sans house? Thats where Dylan has been for the week." I ask.
Quinn just smiles. "Of course. Emily is just getting the car."
"Cool. So can we get pizza? I ask, fuck am I hungry. How did I not notice.
"Sure B, well get pizza on the way home." Santana says.
