New Year at McKinley, new students, new teachers, and still the same old Sue trying to take down the same Glee club but never actually succeeds.
Brittany's POV
Senior year, finally, I was walking through the halls, looking for someone, someone special, Santana, I turn left to look in the choir room, but that was a huge mistake, because I spotted Karofsky, Dave Karofsky. I tried to make a run for it, but I was already late.
"Hey stupid, where do you think you're going?" Karofsky said bitterly.
"I, uhh, ummm-" was all I could say
"Hey guys, looks like we've got our first prey." John, one of the football players said.
"How do you want to settle this, stupid?" Karofsky snarled.
"Just beat me and get over it." I replied bitterly, because I really had to find Santana.
Santana's POV
I was walking through the halls looking for Brittany, I had something important to tell her, but I spotted a group gathering around Karofsky, John and a blonde that looked a lot like Brittany, wait, that is Brittany! Oh my god, I run past all the students and over hear the conversation they were having.
"Just beat me and get it over with" Brittany replied bitterly.
"Fine by me." Karofsky snarled while stepping closer to her, causing her to fall on the ground, he wrapped his palms ready to punch her, she helplessly protected her head with her hands, when I finally reach over to them, I stopped him in his tracks.
"Or we could do this my way." I replied in a bitchy tone, giving him my best glare.
He turns around and looks at me.
"What are you going to do about it?" Karofsky replied, obviously thinking he is superior to me.
"Listen here kiddo, I will go all Lima heights up your face If you don't leave her alone." I meant it.
"This isn't over!" he shouted while walking away.
I look at Brittany and she's in the same position she was a while ago, I bend down and wrap my arms around her protectively while she sobs uncontrollably in my arms. I rub her back and whisper soothing words into her ears, after a while she calms down and looks at me with hurt in her eyes, then she looks away hanging her head down.
"Come on, let's get you cleaned up Britt." I said while standing up and holding my hand out for her, she finally grabs it and we head to the bathroom.
"It's only the first day, what are they going to do to me later?" Brittany says looking up to me with tears in her eyes, I lean in closer to her and hug her, she hugs back and hides her head in my shoulder, I whisper soothing words into her ear and when she calms down, she looks at me, with no emotion, just staring at me, after a few minutes I finally spoke up.
"What are you looking at?" I ask in concern
"How come you're the only person in this school who had never called me stupid? When I clearly am." she asks hanging her head down again.
"Britt, I've never said it because it's not true, you're smarter than anyone gives you credit for, believe me, you are a genius Britt." I said honestly
Brittany's POV.
"I love you." she says looking up at me.
God she's so perfect I would just want to kiss her right now.
"I love you too Santana." if you only knew how much.
We lock eyes, she leans in to kiss me, so do I, I stop before we could kiss and run out the bathroom.
Santana's POV.
"Wait! Britt!" I said but it was too late, I searched for her, and found her on the bleachers, I went up to her and sat beside her.
"Britt…" I say trying to get her attention "Britt... Please look at me." I plead, and she finally does, "It was just an accident, don't worry about it."
"Okay." she says flatly.
"We should probably get inside." I say breaking the silence.
"Can we just go to your place instead?" She looks at me longingly.
"Yea okay, but we still need to go inside and get our stuff."
She doesn't answer, she just stands up, and links our pinkies together.
when we enter the building, we see Karofsky waiting for us.
"Hey look you guys, the bitch is in love with the idiot!" I feel Brittany tense up at Karosky's words.
"Shut it Dave, she's not an idiot, you really do not know who she is right? So just leave her the fuck alone." and with that he pushes me against the lockers and punches me in the eye then leaves, Brittany comes running to my side to see my face.
"I'm sorry." she whispers.
"Britt, it's not your fault, it's okay."
"No it's not okay, it never was okay, and it never will be." with that she starts sobbing, I held her in my arms trying to calm her down, "Britt…" "Please look at me" she does as told "none of this is your fault" she hugs me tightly and whispers "You're my best friend." through a soft sob, while I rub her back.
"Come on lets go get our stuff."
"Get up lazy pants." I reach up for her wrists but she flings when I do, I look up at her with concern, but decide to leave it aside for now.
I got my stuff, but Brittany went inside the bathroom.
"San you can go ahead, I'll be out in a while."
"Okay." with that I went out of the bathroom and headed towards the parking lot.
30 Minutes Later
I was waiting for her outside the school, in the parking lot, she was late, I was about to pick up my phone when I see her walking over to me, I notice something on her cheerios uniform it was something red, looked like blood, still I ignored it and took her hand and walked to my house, it was a quiet walk, but a comfortable one too, I was asking her random things, but she didn't answer, I realized that she was lost in her thoughts.
"Britt." I say looking up to her with concern while squeezing her hand softly.
"Huh?" she says coming back to reality.
"I was asking questions about what song to do for Regionals this year." I state looking at her bright blue eyes with concern.
Brittany's POV.
"I uhh, um a mash up of Someone Like You & Rumor Has It." I answered.
"Britt…" she called.
"Yeah?"
"What were you thinking about?" she asks with concern eyes.
"Nothing." I stated simply looking down.
"Britt please look at me..." she says while putting a finger under my chin and softly lifted it up, I met her beautiful chocolate eyes, she looked upset about something.
"What's wrong?" she asks cupping my cheek.
"I uhh… umm… can we go inside please? I'm feeling cold." I say while faking a shiver in attempt to change the subject.
"Yeah sure."
Santana's POV.
Something is up with Brittany; it hurts to see her like this, she's hiding something, something bad and big.
Inside we sit on the couch in the living room.
"Britt, please talk to me..."
"What do you want to talk about?" she stated simply looking at the TV.
"What's going on Britt? You haven't been acting like yourself lately".
"Nothing is going on, everything is perfectly fine." she said looking down at her wrists, frowning.
"Britt, I know you more than anyone, please tell me what's going on" I plead, giving her the puppy dog look, and she gives in.
"I can't I'm sorry" she begged.
"Okay."
"Get some rest Britt, we can lay down on the couch, or go lay down on the bed if you'd like and we will talk about this tomorrow."
"Can we lay down on the couch?" she asks in a tiny voice.
"Sure, I could sing to you if you'd like."
"Please."
For you, there'll be no crying
For you, the sun will be shining
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you
It's alright
I know it's right
And the songbirds keep singing like they know the score
And I love you, I love you, I love you
Like never before
To you, I would give the world
To you, I'd never be cold
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you
It's alright
I know it's right
And the songbirds keep singing like they know the score
And I love you, I love you, I love you
Like never before
Like never before
Like never before
When I finish the song, she's already fast asleep in my arms, luckily there was a blanket nearby, I throw it open on her, and she snuggles closer to me, like she's afraid she's gonna lose me, I wrap my arms around her waist and hum softly to her, then I kiss her forehead. I stayed awake in case she wakes up from a nightmare. I can't get her off my mind, I think im falling in love with her.
Half an hour later she wakes up and stares at me.
"Hey sleepy head." I jokingly tell her.
"Hi." she simply states.
We lay on the couch watching Disney Pixar Movies "Britt…" I rub her arm "Wake up." I rub her back softly, but she whimpers and starts.
"No… Don't… Please, leave me alone… Please just let me go." Brittany starts sobbing and sweating, and I begin comforting her.
"Shh… Britt, it's me, Santana…" "Britt, wake up."
Suddenly her eyes flutter open and she jumps and runs to the corner I follow quietly and slowly not wanting her to get scared "Britt, it's me, Santana."
"Sanny…?" she asks in a small voice.
"Yes it's me" then she runs to me and hugs me tight not wanting to let go ever again, she hides her head in my neck like she wants to hide from everything.
"Britt.." but she starts sobbing, so I decided to just hold her till she calms down, after 5 minutes she calms down and just keeps on hugging me "Britt.." I try again.
"Yeah?" she asks with her head still hid in my neck and her voice cracked.
"What's going on?"
"Nothing" she answers as she hides her head in my neck.
"Come, let's get some rest Britt."
"no… He will come after me… No!" she whimpers and almost starts crying.
"Shh, Britt, who will come after you..?" I try soothing her while rubbing her back.
"Uh, erm, no one, let's just go." I held her and took her up to my room, once I reached my room she was already asleep, so I laid her on my bed and went to wash my face.
"Santana…" she whispers.
"Yeah?" I say while coming back in.
"I'm sorry." she says looking down.
"It's alright, get some sleep I'll be back I just need to get some water." I say calmly while going downstairs.
That girl makes me love her more every second it's crazy, when I went back upstairs I climbed on the bed and snuggled into Brittany.
Around midnight she jumped up, and she drops to the ground shaking like crazy while sobbing uncontrollably, I sit down beside her and hug her tightly.
"Brittany…" I try to talk to her but she shakes even more "Hey, hey, hey, I'm right here, shh, calm down." I run my arms up and down her back try to sooth her, which works because her sobs turn into sniffles, she turned around and hugged me tightly.
"I'm right here." I say while rubbing her sides.
"Sorry…"
"It's fine, you don't have to apologize, it's not your fault, come on lets lay down on the bed."
"Okay…" she says sadly.
We lay on the bed, she wrapped her arms around my waist tightly, and so did I, I inhale her sweet scent, and I assumed she was asleep because her breathing evened out, nothing else happened that night, I stayed awake just in case anything happened.
6:45 AM
"Britt.." I say softly "We have to go to school." I continue.
Her eyes flutter open
"I don't want to go to school" she looks at me and pouts.
I convince her to go to school, as we reach the front doors of the school, I feel her whole body tensing, as I squeezed her arm reassuringly and smile at her, she smiles back and we enter the school, I was immediately covered with a blueberry slushy.
"Damn, these things are cold." I mumbled under my breath which Brittany heard.
"Oh my god! What was that for you idiots?!" screamed Brittany at Karofsky and John.
"Oh look you guys, the bozo is standing up for lezpez!" Mark shouted from behind.
"Don't call her that" said Brittany sternly, stepping forward.
"Or what?" Karofsky challenged.
"Or I will tell everyone your little secret, trust me, you don't want to cross your limits more than you already have." Brittany stepped closer.
"Fine! I'll leave you both alone for now." Karofskey said as he made his way to Spanish class.
"Hey, you okay?" said Brittany heading back to my direction.
"Yeah I'm fine, I have spare clothes in my locker, I'll go get them" I saw while wiping the blue liquid out of my face.
We reached the locker, grabbed the cloths and went to the bathroom.
Brittany's POV.
I was so gonna kill Karofskey for doing that, I was so lost in my thoughts of killing him until I felt Santana hold my hand.
"You know, blue is so your color, you look like an adorable smurf!" I tease and I earn a giggle from her.
"Yeah, yeah whatever, can you help me clean up?" she asks with a pout that I swear no one can resist.
"Okay" I grab the towel and dab some of the liquid off of her.
"Hey Britt-"
"Yeah?"
"What secret were you threatening Karofskey with?" she asks while tilting her head to the side and leaning back onto the sink.
"it's nothing, I'll tell you when the time is right, trust me" I say while cupping her chin and continue cleaning up her face.
"Okay" she says, and with that we head out to the first period.
