Chapter 3-A Helping Hand.
Now that Santana had revealed her secret to Quinn about her and Brittany dating, she felt as if a lot of weight had been taken off her. She could act all loving and caring when they were in company with Quinn and that made her heart fill with joy. Although she still wished she could do this all the time... act like proper girlfriends in public... but it was too soon and she didn't want to suffer the embarrassment. Quinn had asked many times why they were keeping their love a secret, and how they could cope hiding their feelings from those around them "I still don't get what the big deal is about the rest of the school knowing you girls are in love! Its normal for people to want to share their happiness with others" Santana rolled her eyes and held Brittany's hand tightly. "Quinn it's hard to explain but the thing is, I'm not reading to come out the closet just yet! I'm a bit too young and yes I love Brittany with all my heart but what if I'm just confused? I wouldn't want people asking questions about us and talking behind our backs." Brittany not listening to the conversation was keeping herself busy by playing with Santana's pinky, which was now going red from all the wiggling it had gone through in the last 5 minutes.
Suddenly Rachel came into the choir room with a look of anxiety on her face "Quinn i just saw puck kissing this new girl from the cheerios! I think she is an exchange student or something, but as soon as i saw them i ran here to tell you. You should go over there and give him a piece of your mind!" Rachel ran out the room as soon as she was done speaking; both Santana and Brittany took a glance at Quinn to see how she was dealing with the news she had been told. "It seems as though I don't have any luck with guys!" Quinn stated. Brittany whispered into Santana's ear which made Santana giggle quietly. The warmth from Brittany's breath was tickling her ear and she enjoyed that. But what caught her attention was what Brittany had whispered to her. Santana stared at Quinn from the corner of her eye while Brittany finished speaking. "What did she say?" Asked Quinn intrigued. Brittany stared at her feet which were now shuffling nervously on the cold marble floor. "Well Quinn, she sees how happy we are together, and she wants you to be as happy as we are! So she suggested..." Santana paused for a moment before carrying on "why don't you give girls a try? For the sake of it?" Quinn's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree, her facial expressions changed for it seemed as though she didn't find it such a bad idea. "you know what? I will." Santana's eyes enlarged so big it was as if they were going to pop out from the astonishment she was going through.
Quinn strode through the hall ways with a smirk on her face as she checked out all the girls passing by. But for her each one was useless. And then it hit her, Sugar Motta was the perfect person to date she thought. Brittany isn't the brightest bulb on the tree but yet she still seems to make Santana feel loved, and maybe Sugar would do the same. As she thought her plan over in her head, Santana and Brittany were walking out the front door of the school ready to get picked up and do homework together. "you know Santana, you're the only person I know I can just be myself with and you accept me for who i am. That's why you're so special to me." Santana's cheeks turned bright pink as she climbed in the back seat of the car next to Brittany.
