A/N: Hey everybody, sorry this took so long, life got in the way, and /or I just had no muse to get back into this story, but I'm back now so enjoy the story and review!
Artie got home from Santana's house and his lips were still tingling. Santana's mouth had felt so good and just thinking about that mouth had him thinking of a cold shower. Artie always had control over his emotions and sexual identity, but something about Santana had made him unbelievably horny. As he got to his room and undressed to get in the shower he had visions in his head of course of Santana. These visions had gotten very sexual and had made him hard. His thoughts were racing and they were all about Santana, he had never wanted someone so bad in his entire life and if she were here he would have fucked her in every position known to man and his other thoughts would have made porn stars blush. Artie took care of his hard-on and showered and went to sleep, with the taste of Santana somehow still on his lips and tongue. It was then Artie started to feel guilty, not because of his NC-17 thoughts, he was a single straight 16 year old male and Santana was gorgeous, but because of Brittany. He had really liked Brittany and when she dumped him for Santana he had been sad and humiliated. Now I just made out with the girl who stole my girlfriend and have had thoughts of sex with this girl. Man when did my life become a soap opera? Tomorrow should be interesting.
Across town Santana was having similar thoughts. She was terrified of her feelings, because she had thought she was a lesbian, but now Artie had her thinking she was bisexual. She knew she loved Brittany but when Artie kissed her (or when she kissed Artie she wasn't sure who started it), it had felt amazing and she saw fireworks. Their tongues dueled for dominance, and he sucked on her lips perfectly. When Artie had bit her lower lip and pulled on while sucking on her lip she just about lost it and wanted to fuck him all night long. Artie had called her beautiful and she had just about melted. She was feeling guilty because she wasn't supposed to fall for Artie but she clearly has and her mother who had walked by and saw them kissing like that told her so. Santana thought about what her mother told her, when you kiss someone with that much passion there is more than just friends or it was a mistake going on. Her mother was right she had actual feelings for Artie and that truly terrified her, and what would happen to Brittany and her. Than night Santana had felt bad for Brittany because she didn't realize the difficult situation she put her girlfriend through with being into two different people but she knew now because it was happening to her. Tomorrow is going to suck so much.
Artie was rolling down the hallways when he ran into Brittany. He smiled at her but felt so guilty. Artie said" hey Brittany, what's up? How are you?" She looked at him and said " I'm good just thinking about stuff. I really miss hanging out with you Artie and I was wondering if we could be friends." He smiled and said " Brittany we are friends and I miss you too. I'll see you later in glee." Brittany smiled so bright it lit up the hallway and leaned down and kissed Artie's cheek and said " bye Artie." Artie had rolled away from her and made it to his drama class where the teacher asked them to perform an act from their favorite novel. He loved so many books but his favorite books were To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee and Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. He was torn between these two books ironically just like he was torn between two girls Santana and Quinn. Artie had really liked Quinn and had seen the smiles and the waves and knew that he could like her more than he should have. But with Santana he felt an explosion in his stomach and felt butterflies in his gut at just the thought of her.
Santana had been in school and she saw Artie and Brittany talking and that had made her uneasy. She really liked both of them but she would have to choose one , but if you asked her a week ago who she would have picked she would have laughed in their face and said Brittany duh, but now she's not sure. She felt tingles whenever either of he touched her. She also noticed that Quinn was also into Artie, she saw them flirting and it killed her inside that another guy might choose Quinn over her.
It had been three weeks since Artie and Santana had kissed and each day they were together to work on this song it killed them slowly to be next to each other but not touch each other. Santana had basically cut Artie off by saying that she loved Brittany and didn't want him and the kiss was a mistake. In her mind she was screaming you stupid bitch, you know you love him. Stop being a bitch and just talk to him about you're feelings. They only worked on the song and didn't talk about anything else. Both of them were miserable but Santana still had Brittany. Meanwhile Artie was getting closer to Quinn. They had gone out and when Quinn wasn't being stuck up and let loose she was really fun to be a round. They got stares wherever they went but they ignored them, Artie had dropped Quinn off and tried to kiss her cheek but Quinn turned around and their lips met. Artie felt sparks and while they weren't as big as Santana's they were still there. Quinn broke the kiss first and said" wow you're a great kisser." Artie blushed but played it off by saying " duh woman, I'm the best kiss you'll ever have " in his ghetto voice. Quinn giggled and said" definitely the best kiss."
Artie and Quinn were laughing at the joke Mike had told them. Artie had thought Quinn was gorgeous but he looked up and saw Santana watching them. Their eyes locked and they didn't seem to be able to break away their gazes from one another. Artie broke the gaze first and then he and Quinn walked into the choir room.
Most of the class was already there and so was Mr. Schue, the bell rang and Brittany and Santana walked in together and found their seats. Mr. Schue said" alright who wants to start on these duets." Rachel stood up and said " we will and please try not to cry at this performance." Rachel and Sam who looked thoroughly miserable performed a number that was of course from Broadway. It wasn't bad but only Kurt jumped up and cheered, the rest just clapped. Mike and Quinn went next and they performed a song by vertical horizon, "Everything You Want.", while Mike had his gaze solely on Tina. Santana gritted her teeth but she wasn't sure if it was because Quinn was looking at her man or if it was because of her own stupidity. Tina and Puck went next and sang a great version of The Fray's Over My head(Cable Car). Their performance was fantastic. Puck and Tina gave each other a high five while Finn and Brittany got ready to go. They sang Blink 182's song "All the Small Things". This made everyone giggle since Finn was like 6'3 and Brittany was like 5'8. Their performance was surprisingly very good and their voices went well together. Mercedes and Sugar sang Mariah Carey's song "Hero". It was awesome and even though Sugar wasn't very good Mercedes more than made up for this. Mercedes belted out the last note and everyone cheered. Kurt and Lauren sang The Beatles' "Let it Be." Their performance was alright but they seemed to have fun doing it and they hugged each other at the end and it made everyone clap. Blaine and Rory sang their song and it was Blessed Union of Soul's "I Believe." They were great but the class was a little confused about how they are both white singing a song about a black man and racial inequality. Blaine and Rory stated that to them the song was about inequality for all gays, Blacks, Whites, Asians, Latinos, or immigrants from anywhere else. Mr Schue said great and the class cheered for them. Finally it was Artie and Santana's turn. They were both nervous but started. Their song was by Matt Nathanson, it was called "Run." Artie started singing:
[Verse 1 Artie]
I wanna watch you undress
I wanna watch you glow
Let your hair down
All around, cover us both
You come in a wave
We crash and we roll
You surround me, pull me, drown me, swallow me whole
[Chorus (Both)
You turn, turn,turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
Know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you
Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you
[Verse 2 Santana]
You pull me in close
You buckle my knees
I shake and I shiver just to feel you breathe
You trace my lines
(You trace your lines)
Stirring my soul
Shoot sparks at the heart of the world and I watch it explode (I watch you, I watch you)
[Chorus (Both)
You turn, turn, turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
Know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you
Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you
Artie
I'm amazing when you're beside me
I am so much more
Santana
And I feel your fingers
Pound like thunder
I am so much more
Artie
So much more
[Chorus (Both)
Turn, turn, turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
Know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you
Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you
Turn, turn, turn, turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
Know that it's wrong
Still I run, run, run, run right into you
Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you
Still I run, run, run, run right back to you
Santana
Turning me on
Artie
Like a slow fire burn.
When they were finished the class was absolutely silent but Artie and Santana were breathing hard and looking into each other's eyes. Santana looked at the class and at Brittany whose eyes were just like everybody else's wide open with their faces shocked. They then clapped but Santana looked back at Artie who had looked at the floor and then he looked up and she ran from the room in tears. Artie looked at the door still and even Mr. Schue who was oblivious at times could feel the passion and the sexual tension his performers had felt while singing that great song.
A/N: 2 I own none of these songs and I highly recommend you listen to these songs. Please Review, More to come soon.
