ONE MORE PROBLEM
As Brittany gets inside off her house, she sees Santana drive off. She had been so stupid. She could've just told her she lived here, now Santana probably thinks she's some weird kid that doesn't even know her adress.
Ofcourse she knows her adress, who doesn't? She's not that stupid..
She walks into the livingroom and is greeted by her cat, who is spinning and trying to crawl up her leg. She smiles and softly picks him up. ''Hey, little man ...How are you? Have you been a good kitty today?'' She says, as she lets her hand run over his spine, causing him to purr loudly.
''Britty has a little problem.. But you can help me out, right Tubbs?''
Meanwhile Santana parks her car in front of her house. It had only been a ten minute ride home. Well, normally like 5 minutes, but some jolly dumbass decided to drive right in to a tree, so it took a little longer getting past that.
As she gets out of the car, she wonders what suddenly got in to Brittany. She lived in a good neighbourhood, she had a giant, beautiful house ... Maybe she has a weird roommate or something? No, that couldn't have been the reason, Santana hadn't even asked to come in.
She unlocks her door and walks inside, where she is suddenly greeted by la lot of barking and a cute little dog running up to her.
Santana screams at first, because what the hell some one is in her house! But when she takes a second look at the dog, she frowns.
''Hey ...'' she says quietly ''I know you ...''
She kneels down, picks up the dog and walks to the livingroom. She sighs as she hears some rummage in the kitchen. She walks towards it and sees a familiar silhouet digging in her cupboards.
''What the hell are you doing here?''
''You hungry Lord Tubbington? I'm going to make fondue tonight! You like that, don't you?''
She smiles as the cat purrs loudly.
''Yees .. I know you do.''
She walks to the kitchen, still holding the heavy cat on one arm. She opens the fridge and grabs some vegetables and cheese. She eventually puts the cat down since it's kinda hard to cook with an animal on your arm.
She turns on the radio and instantly starts singing along.
''Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say, I'll go ahead and say them anywaaay. Forget your .. uhm balls and grow a pair of tits! It's hard out here for a .. bitch'' she says the last word quietly, making sure Lord Tubbington doesn't hear it. But he's just scratching his furry little head against the table.
Santana laughs as she sees the person turn around and smiling sheepishly. They slowly close the cupboard and now fully turn around to look at Santana.
The person grins ''Lezpez. Long time no see.''
Santana smirks ''Puckermann ...''
The guy now smiles and walks up to Santana, who has her arms crossed over her chest, trying to glare at him. Which she fails in, ofcourse. Besides the strange situation they are in, she can't help but smile, she just missed him too much.
''Sorry for stealing your food, I was hungry.''
Santana raises an eyebrow ''One of the many reasons I don't trust you alone in my house ..''
''I know you missed me, Lezpez.'' He says, still grinning, before he pulls her into a tight hug.
''Puck! You're crushing my boobs!'' She shouts out laughing. ''Oh, sorry'' he chuckles.
Santana shakes her head ''Seriously, Noah, what are you doing here?''
''You want some cheeese?'' Brittany asks her cat, and she giggles as he licks the cheese off her finger. She had made fondue with steamed broccoli and some other vegetables, which she was dipping in the cheese.
And ofcourse she's sharing with Lord Tubbs, who eats fondue by himself?
Just as she puts a full broccoli into her mouth and tries to chew it, she hears her phone ringing.
''Ohw nwooth mnoow ..'' she mumbles.
She looks at her phone, sighs, and picks up.
''Mhellow? Myeshh, no I'm eatingg .. Myahh''
She eventually succeeds in swallowing the smoking hot broccoli, or, little trees as she calls it.
''Sorry, yeah. No! Are you serious? I'm sorry, no. No, I can't do that.''
She listens a while to what the other voice says and sighs.
''I can't leave now ..''
The guy looks down ''Uh, well. Can I crash here a couple of nights?'' He asks shyly. Santana smiles. He's like the kind of guy that looks all tough and arrogant, he was a jock football player in High School, and yet, he's one of the sweetest guys Santana knows.
Ofcourse, he had been the biggest player of the school. But he was a good friend, and he had always been very protective of Santana.
If you forget the fact that they had hooked up a numerous amount of times in High School, he was kinda like a big brother to her.
''Why?'' Santana asks ''Did something happen? And how did you even get in?''
Puck chuckles and reaches in his pocket, swinging a key out. ''I still have an extra key, remember? And uh, yeah ..''
Santana signs that he has to follow her to the livingroom. She sits down and pats the seat beside her. He sits down next to her.
''Tell me what happened, I thought you lived in L.A.?''
''Yeah. You know I went into the army after Finn died, right?''
Santana nods and smiles sadly. Finn had been one of their best friends, but he passed away a few years ago. Santana had been really broken at that time, but nobody had really known why since she was always making fun of him. But Santana just never wanted to admit that she actually liked Finn, he was a good guy, and he was always kind to Santana. Except that time when he outed her to the whole school but ..yeah.
''Well, after that I decided to continue my sweet pool cleaning business, but recently I decided I needed a real job, so I came here.''
Santana raises her eyebrows ''YOU decided to get a better job?''. Puck wasn't really the most ambitious guy she knows.
He looks down ''Well .. no, it was my dad, but ..- ''
'' - Puck! How many times have I told you to not let that drunken asshole tell you how to live your life! If you liked that job you should've just gone for it.''
Puck sighs ''But he was right .. I need more money, I .. - ''
'' - You were in the army for like three years, where did that money go?'' Santana cuts him off. ''And I thought your pool business was going so well ..?''
''Yeah, but .. It's not enough ..''
Santana frowns ''Do you need to pay rent or pay off debts or something? I can lone you some if you really need it ..''
''No, I have to make my own money from now on. Santana, I .. - ''
'' - Noah, you know you can always lone money from me. If you don't have enough at the moment you can just ask me and ..''
''I have to earn my own money, don't you understand? I have to be responsible .. ''
''But why is that so important right now? I mean, it's not a big deal I can just...''
''Because I have a daughter, Santana!''
Santana's eyes widen and she looks at her friend in shock.
''WHAT?!''
Thoughts?
