Glaring at his brother, Marco puts Leno and Skye into their stalls before approaching his older sibling.

"How could you?" Marco growls shoving Jesse away from his sister's crush.

"What?" Jesse asks.

"You were making out with a minor, Jesse. You were very disrespectful."

"She wanted it." Jesse shrugs his shoulders. Knowing Jesse rarely lies, Marco hopes this is the one time he's lying.

"Is this true?" Marco looks at Santana, who has tears in her eyes. Finding all eyes on her, Santana's tears fall, "Did you let it happen, Santana? Yes or no."

"He wouldn't stop." Santana admits quietly.

"Jesse, you and I are going to have a serious talk, but after I take Santana inside."

"What is it about?" Jesse wonders.

"Dani."

"What happened?"

"When I come back, we will talk." Turning away, Marco leads the way out. Stopping at the entrance of the barn, Marco turns to see Jesse glaring at Santana as she follows him, "Let's go."

Walking the a couple minute walk to the house, Marco stops a good distance between the house and barn.

"Why did you and Jesse make out?" Marco asks furiously, knowing his twin is heartbroken.

"He wouldn't let me go." Santana whispers staring Marco in the eye to show she's not lying, "I tried to get away, but he didn't let me go until I kissed him. Even then, he didn't and I wanted to get away."

"He found the middle ground. If he forced you, you could have gotten him into trouble. Since he got you to give the consent, he can't get into trouble." Marco sighs, "There is a rumour on why you are here."

"I'm here because," Santana pauses.

"Are you gay?"

"What?" Santana whispers with her eyes going wide.

"Are you, Santana?"

"Marco!"

"What? It's a question." Storming away, Marco smirks. He knows he is close to finding out and now he just have to look for the signs, "Wait, Lopez!"

"What do you want, Marco?" Santana sighs, stopping and turning to face him.

"Even if you are gay, it's okay. If you want to talk to someone about these things, talk to Dani."

"Is that it?" Santana wonders with fear in her eyes.

"Yes. Just talk to Dani okay? Explain what happened and if she doesn't believe you, don't take it to heart."

"How could I not take that to heart?"

"She likes you, Santana. Just talk to her, okay?"

"Fine." Walking into the house, Santana removes her shoes and heads upstairs. Stopping at Dani's closed door, Santana gently knocks on it.

As the door opens, Santana spots Dani's red eyes from crying.

"I'm sorry." Santana whispers with tears in her own eyes.

"What would you like?" Dani questions, wiping her eyes and sniffling.

"I would like to talk to you. Explain what happened."

"Why?"

"May I explain myself?"

"Sure." Stepping aside, Dani allows Santana into her bedroom. There are photos of Dani with Skye, her friends and family, mostly her and Skye. Her walls are a lavender coloured with green and pink stripes.

"I love your room." Santana smiles, "May I look around?"

"Okay." Dani nods. Looking at the photos, Dani closes the door softly. Walking over to Santana, Dani explains each photo, "The family photo was taken at my competition three years ago. I came in third."

"From what I have seen, you should have gotten higher."

"I was twelve." Dani giggles, "I placed and did my best."

"Skye looks so cute." Santana admits looking at a recent picture of Dani and Skye.

"Thank you. I take care of him on my own. Dad helps from time to time, but Skye is my responsibility."

"My parents won't even let me have a puppy, let alone a fish." Santana sighs, "I wish for a puppy though."

"When did the want for a puppy begin?"

"I was seven."

"You're fifteen now right?"

"Yes I am."

"Lady, our dog, she's about to have puppies. If you like, I could ask if you could help me take care of them."

"Really?" Santana smiles happily with her brown eyes shining.

"Yeah. It would be fun."

"Are you wondering why I'm here? Left Ohio to come here for the summer?"

"A little, but it's not my business." Hearing Santana sigh, Dani frowns, "Is it bad?"

"It's more my grandmother and parents can't accept who I am. So they sent me here to teach me a lesson."

"Oh." Dani nods moving toward her bed and sits down, "So they want you to change."

"Yes."

"I like this you. Is it who you are at home?"

"No."

"Is the you I saw earlier, when you first arrived, the Ohio you?"

"Pretty much, but worse."

"I see."

"My parents said I haven't always been like a royal jerk, but it started three years or so ago."

"What started at that time that started to change?"

"Questioning, growing up, and moved to a different city in Ohio, being an outsider." Santana lists.

"I think you need to start fresh. Clean the slate."

"How can you do that?" Patting her bed, signaling to Santana to sit down, Santana joins her on the bed.

"I'm not sure. I'm learning it myself." Dani laughs a little, "I went off the rails a little while ago, also questioning stuff, and I am still learning to accept it or stuff. It's not easy." Sighing and looking Santana in the eye, the Latina stares back. Getting lost in each other's eyes, Santana moves toward Dani. Going to kiss Dani's cheek, Dani moves slightly so Santana's lips fall onto the corner of Dani's.

Immediately pulling away in shock when they hear a throat clear a few seconds later, there stands Marco in the doorway.

"I'd leave you to talk more, but Dani, we have school in the morning." Marco fights a smile. Blushing, Santana and Dani give each other a hug before Santana leaves Dani's bedroom.

The next morning, Dani and Marco leaves to catch the bus, but just as they leave Jesse pulls up in the truck.

"Santana and I are going into town," Jesse starts but gets cut off by Dani slapping him in the face, "What was that for?"

"Stay away from her." Dani glares. Marco told her what happened and knows that was what Santana was going to tell her, but they were talking about other stuff.

"You believe that slut?" Jesse fires furiously, "Over your own brother?"

"Just stay away from her, Jesse, or you will never be forgiven."

"You like her, which is why you would believe her over me."

Not knowing Santana is behind her with the door open to the house; Santana fights a smile when Dani doesn't deny it.

"What you did was wrong and disrespectful. No woman would want to be treated that way. It's sick and wrong. Mom and dad raised us better than this."

"Just like they raised us to be true to who we are." Marco agrees with Dani.

"Just get in." Jesse rolls his eyes.

Climbing into the truck, Dani climbs into the bed and looks at the door to see Santana. Blushing, Dani climbs back out and helps Santana into the bed since Marco is in the front with Jesse. Sitting down together, the truck begins to move.

"Happy that your school year is over?" Dani asks Santana, facing her.

"Oh yeah, less drama." Santana nods, turning to face Dani. Getting lost in each other's eyes, they both lean in. Feeling their lips touch slightly, the truck swerves. Falling on top of Santana, Dani immediately checks Santana over to make sure she's not bleeding.

"Are you okay?" Dani panics.

"I'm fine." Santana answers pulling Dani down, "May I kiss you now?"

Smiling, Dani nods. As they lean in again, their lips touch in a kiss. Suddenly the truck skids to a stop. Pulling apart, there is Jesse glaring at them.

"Lopez, you are sitting in the front with me." Jesse orders.

"Leave her alone, Jesse." Dani snaps.

"Get off of her, Dani." Ignoring him, Dani looks to Santana before kissing her. Feeling Santana kiss her back, they are pulled apart. Snapping her eyes open, Jesse is pulling the squirming Santana to the front of the truck.

"Just let him have control for now." Marco whispers holding his twin to him in the bed of the truck.

"Jealous jerk." Dani mutters making Marco laugh.

"I know." Marco agrees.

Arriving to the high school, Marco stands at the driver's door as Dani stands on Santana's side.

"I'll see you at home." Dani speaks softly to Santana. Seeing the worry in Santana's eyes, Dani sighs, "If anything happens, tell my parents."

"Okay." Santana whispers.

"If only you could stay and come to my classes." Dani frowns.

"Could we try?" Santana asks hopeful.

"I doubt it would work."

"I know."

"Here," Pulling out her cell phone, Dani opens her contacts, "Put your number in." Doing just that, Dani saves it and sends Santana a quick message. Pulling it out, Santana smiles saving Dani's number, "Exams start tomorrow, today is just boring stuff and prepping. So I can text you today."

"Thank you." Kissing Santana's cheek, Dani whispers in her ear.

"Anything for you, Babe."

Winking at Santana as the bell rings, Dani smiles.

"See you later." Looking around quickly, Dani steps up onto the step and pulls Santana into a kiss.

At lunch, just before Dani could call, Jesse moans into Santana's mouth thrusting into Santana's terrified body. Biting Jesse's tongue, he pulls away and fires a punch into Santana's face. Whimpering, the phone rings.

"If it's my sister, break her heart. You're mine." Jesse growls. As tears fall faster, Santana picks up the phone.

"Hello?" Santana stutters.

"Santana? It's Dani." Dani's soothing voice greets, concerned, "I'm on my way home with Marco."

"But, school?"

"We got out early." Dani lies, "Hold on a minute." Hearing Dani mutter something, Santana covers her mouth, biting back a scream as Jesse goes back to thrusting inside her. Knowing Dani can hear Jesse's moans, Santana bites back a sob, "Marco, hurry up." Santana hears Dani's furious voice, "Santana, Marco and I are on our way home right now."

Not even an hour later, Jesse is sleeping on his stomach, naked. Sobbing Santana scrubs herself clean, turning her skin red. She is in Dani's room showering in Dani's bathroom. Knowing she shouldn't be in Dani's room, Santana can't help but feel safe in there. Wishing she never existed; Santana doesn't regret the kisses she and Dani shared.

Hearing running feet on the stairs, Santana wipes her eyes to clear her vision, but more tears fall.

"Santana?" Santana hears Dani's voice, "It's Dani. May I come in?"

"Okay." Santana stutters as the shower's door slides open. Watching Dani step in, in her clothes but with bare feet, Dani closes the door behind her.

"Marco is dealing with Jesse and we already called mom and dad. They are on their way home." Dani informs Santana moving so she is on her knees. Stroking Santana's wet hair, Dani wishes she was strong enough to deal with Jesse on her own and make sure Santana would never be hurt by him again, "Santana, I know Jesse raped you. I heard him in the background."

"You're right." Santana croaks from all of her crying. Wrapping her arms around Santana, Dani holds her close, "Take away him."

"What do you mean?" Dani asks. Feeling Santana take her hand, Santana places Dani's hand on her chest. Widening her eyes, it dawns on Dani a little.

"I want you, not him." Santana clarifies.

"San-" Dani starts but Santana cuts her off with a kiss.

"Please." Santana begs, "Please." Choking on her tears again, Dani holds Santana closer. Reaching up to turn off the now ice cold water, Dani stays with Santana, holding her.
