Santana set out to find another job somewhere. She knew somebody somewhere would want to hire her even if it was a job in McDonalds! She was walking down a street glancing at posters advertising different jobs. None of them jumped out to her particularly… they weren't the kinda jobs that people dreamed about. Then she saw a poster advertising that a film company needed film extras. Santana's eyes lit up and she walked closer peering at the lettering reading it closely. There were try outs that afternoon at 2… not that there was a point in trying out for being an extra… Extra-ing didn't take much skill. But Santana took this as a chance for fame… or something close to that.

Santana sauntered to the place that the try-outs were taking place. She walked up to the sign out desk and wrote her name down. She wandered over to a small slightly attractive woman with pointy exaggerated features and small owl glasses perched on her nose.

"Hey… I'm Santana Lopez… I wanna be an extra."

"Hello there young lady… An extra… just an extra?"

"Yeah… I saw an advertisement and I have no work at the moment and I thought this might be fun."

"You seem awfully confident for just an extra. Why don't you try out for a small part?"

"Me? I have no acting back ground I'm only 19… I couldn't!"

"Who said you needed experience…unless you just want to be an extra?"

"Oh God no! But why me? I mean okay!"

"We don't have many actresses or actors up for such a small job of a shop keeper so we would like you to volunteer unless that's below you?"

"No of course not. This is just really unexpected."

"Well begin your audition."

"I have nothing prepared…"

"Begin."

2 hours later Santana was skipping home leaping around and squealing not giving a shit whether people were staring at her. Then she burst through the door and grabbed Quinn and hugged her tight.

"Hi Santana."

"Hey Quinn!"

"Are you drunk again?"

"No silly! I'm happy." Quinn raised an eyebrow, half believing her half not.

"Oh… why is that?"

"I got an acting job! As an actual actor!"

"What?! You got an acting job? How? Why? What? When? Spill!"

"There was an advertisement for a job as an extra so I decided to go explore… no biggie. But then this woman was practically harassing me like saying I should audition for a bigger part and I was like Okay and then I did and I got it! I'm just a shop keeper working at a till and only in one scene but… EEEEK!"

Quinn was overwhelmed. Santana seemed so happy. It was a strange thing to see. Santana was in a good mood for the whole evening. Quinn liked it even if it did make her nervous. She was waiting for the outburst the sudden mood change the snap of the head the click of the fingers.

Later that night when they were sat on the sofa, feet brushing together, Santana turned her head and stared at Quinn smiling slightly. Quinn sensed Santana's eyes on her and turned around and smiled back. Santana sighed deeply and opened her mouth as if she was about to say something, then smashed it shut, making a clanking noise with her teeth. Quinn frowned at her shaking her head.

"Quinn?" Santana called into the air.

"Yes Honey?"

"I'm really thankful for you… you know for letting me stay here… You're a great friend Quinn. Even if we had some rough times in the past… that doesn't matter now. I really really love you…"

"You… you love me?"

"Yeah… I uh I mean friends love each other of course."

"Oh yeah sure." The two of them smiled faintly, both blushing awkwardly. Suddenly Quinn's phone began to buzz and vibrate. Santana looked at Quinn expectantly as she picked up the buzzing phone and questioned to the caller, "Hello? Who is this?"

"It's Sam."

Quinn's eyes lit up. "Sam?! Oh My God Hi!"

"Hi Quinn… I… I'm ringing to you know… clear the ice."

"It's Sam!" Quinn mouthed at Santana grinning. Santana nodded then stared blankly as Quinn gushed and giggled down the phone.

Once their phone call was over, Quinn turned and faced Santana.

"Sam said that he knows what you and I did was a mistake and he's prepared to forgive me and he's driving down here after school tomorrow…"

"Oh… that's great. So you two were never uh… broken up in the first place? I mean after we kissed you were still together?"

"I guess so… he was just angry at me…. So we're still together… which is great."

"Do you know what really confuses me though?"

"What Santana?" Quinn said slightly rolling her eyes.

"You spent the last week being all flirty with me, giving me signs, telling me that you loved me, telling me I give you tingles… making out with me… kissing me… practically acting like my girlfriend… giving me false hope and then as soon as your 'ex' boyfriend calls you're pushing me aside with a firm hand… Just confuses me that's all."

"Oh Santana. I wasn't giving you signs… we were just messing about fooling around… experimenting. I do love you San… you're my best friend."

"Not anymore…" Santana said almost whispering. She leapt off of the sofa and marched out the door.

Quinn sighed and watched Santana exit out of the door moodily. What had she done? She was very confused. She didn't mean to lead Santana on… before Brittany, Santana dated at least 5 people on the go and she fooled around with everybody and everything… why was it such a big deal this time?

Quinn wasn't sure what to make of Santana's strange turn… she sighed and rested her head back on the sofa.
