*Brittany's POV*
"Santana!" I yell as she runs out of the auditorium, I go to run after her but I'm pulled back by Mr Schue who looks at me and I know he just wants me to leave her be for a bit and let her have alone time.
"I'm so disappointed in you all" Mr Schue yelled and everyone turned towards me
"Mr Schue" I hear Artie pipe up and I really didn't want him too say something
"No, Artie. Santana is really rude and mean and hurtful to you, but did you ever think why? She could just be hurting on the inside but none of you can see that except Britt. Did you ever thing about that? What happened to this Glee club being family? Family don't do this to each other, now I want you all to think about this because imagine if the people you considered family talked badly about you behind your back? Or hurt you? How would you feel?" He tells them and they all look down he then turns to me "Come on Brittany we need to find Santana" I run out the auditorium and head towards the bleachers Mr Schue in tow.
"Santana? San?" I begin to yell as I run across the football field and under the bleachers, I spot the Latina sat on the sofa crying holding her cast tightly to her chest, it breaks my heart to see her like this, I run over to her and pull her into me she begins to sob and all I can do is tell her she'll be ok while I place kisses on top of her head. Slowly she begins to calm down and then she looks at me and Mr Schue
"I'm so sorry Santana. I can't believe them, I'm really disappointed in them" Mr Schue sighs and I look at her and notice her top seems really thick
"Santana, why is your t-shirt so thick?" I ask and she blushes
"I was in the choir room talking to Mr Schue just after you gave me the Lebanese top and I told him what I'd put on my BITCH* t-shirt, but I never got chance to show you. I wanted to win you over, I wanted you to choose me over Artie because I love you and hate seeing you with him, but I know that you just want me to just be comfortable with myself and I was going to come to the auditorium and perform wearing the t-shirt you gave me, but when I got there I heard everything that Sam said and saw you get angry. I lost the confidence I had and put my bitch top back on then ran out here." She whispers
"What was on you bitch t-shirt?" I ask god she's so mysterious sometimes, she began to remove her t-shirt she still had the Lebanese one on underneath, don't worry. She passed me the t-shirt with the word bitch facing upwards
"Turn it over Brittany" she whispers and I flip the t-shirt and see some small writing at the top of the t-shirt near the collar, I look closer and gasp when I see what it says. But not to the genius Brittany S. Pierce who I am crazy in love with. Tears begin to form in my eyes "Santana, I can't believe you. Did you really think you had to win me over? You know that all I have ever wanted was to be with you. I was the one who suggested we dueted together first remember? I'm the one who wanted to talk about feelings and you were the scared one. I know I chose Artie over you, but I did that because I wanted you to realises that you didn't have to be afraid because you'll always have someone who loves you more than anything, someone who will always bring out the best in you, someone who will always try their best to make you as happy as you can be. That person is me. But San, you need to be completely comfortable with yourself before we make this, us official. I love you so much that I want to be able to hold your hand and walk down the hallway showing everyone how hot my girlfriend is. But I know that although you may be ready in your heart you're not ready in your head." I tell her and she has tears falling from her eyes "Hey, no tears" I wipe the tears off her cheeks and smile at her "Come on San, smile. You look even more beautiful than normal when you smile." This makes her laugh and that is the sound that lights up my life. I lean across and pull her into a bear hug, she clings to me like a sloth to a tree (ok that was a terrible metaphor) but when I pull away she keeps hold of my hands and we look back to Mr Schue who's smiling, oh crap, he's got an idea.
"That was so sweet. Santana are you ok? Do you want to come back to Glee club? I know they all want to apologise, I know it doesn't make up for what they've done but it might make you feel better to hear what they have to say" He says with a look that I've never seen before, I think he's kind of mad that the glee club did this to Santana.
"Mr Schue, why do you care so much?" Santana asks and I look at her and back to him
"I care because out of everyone in Glee, I see you as more of a daughter than any other I can see all the pain you have in your eyes and it just pains me to see you hurting. I never told anyone this, but I've always wanted a daughter and when you called me that night asking for help knowing that you trusted me meant so much to me and I know you won't believe me, but it's true." He smiles and I feel Santana get up and run to him giving him a massive hug. I love that she has such a close relationship with him I know she's never really had a father figure because hers was always working when she was little to give her the best shot she had in life. He's always been busy and it meant that he never really bonded with Santana which was a shame cause she was never really a girly girl which was pretty cute to be honest. But knowing that she's got this bond with Mr Schue makes me really happy because she now has something that she's always wanted. When they pulled away from the hug they both looked really happy.
"I want to go back to Glee club, but I don't want to act like nothing has happened. I want to talk to them about what they said and how much it really hurt me, I don't think I'm ready to come out, but I will admit that I'm completely and utterly in love with someone. I'm just not ready to say who it is. I'm sorry Britt" she whispers, I walk over to her and hold her hand as I lean in and peck her on the lips
"It's ok Santana. I'll still love you no matter what you do" I tell her and she kisses me again. We all walk back to Glee club, Mr Schue first with Santana and I following him walking closely together we enter the room and Santana and I take our seats at the back of the choir room, everybody stares at the two of us before Mr Schue starts talking
"I can't even begin to explain how disappointed I am. You have all said on countless occasions that this club is a family but the one person who has never called this club a family is Santana and I never understood why, but now I do. None of you treat her like family the only people who do and Brittany and Mike, so no wonder why she lashes out at you because you lash out at her just in a different way. She bites back with bad words, but what you do is worse you all act kind and nice to her face, but none of you can deny that you have bad mouthed her behind her back. I think we all owe Santana an apology, but not only that, I think you need to prove that Santana is a part of this family because if you don't I'm not going to run this club anymore" He states and I look around and see that everyone looks shocked
"Mr Schue, you can't do that! Santana's got a heart that's made of stone, she won't get hurt if we bitch about her or say mean things" Sam states and I feel my blood boil, I see Santana take a deep breath and stand up, she looks at me and then begins to walk towards the piano
"Look. I know I've hurt you all on multiple occasions, but I don't mean to, I can't help it sometimes. And I do love you all of you like family. My heart is not made of stone and to be honest I thought it was, but then I fell in love and I knew it wasn't. I'm in love with someone, yeah Santana Lopez in madly in love" She says and I feel my knees turn to jelly, she glances at me and smiles while the Glee club clap
"Santana, on behalf of the Glee club, I'd like to apologise for what we said. We love you Santana" Finn said and he went up and hugged her tightly, the whole Glee club came and gave her a group hug. Sam was still sat in his seat rolling his eyes and scoffing at everything that just happened. Santana had to grab my hand to stop me from attacking him. Mr Schue walked in front of the group
"Sam, I want you to leave Glee club until you can apologise to Santana and actually make her feel welcome her you're no longer welcome in this club" he says as he points to the door "Get out." Sam slung his bag over his shoulder and walked out the room
"I don't think it's that easy to apologise to a dyke." He states before walking out the room.
