A/N: And for the last chapter of Somewhere Only We Know. I know that it's short... but I hope you all love the ending anyway :) It has been such a pleasure to write for you all. I know that my hiatuses were so annoying, but I thank you all for hanging in there with me for this ending :) I'm sorry it was so condensed, but I really just didn't want to butcher this story anymore than I feel like I have already.

I will always be incredibly grateful for you my lovely readers :)

One last review? *kisses*

Three months. Three months of being far from Dani and California and the horrible mistake that I had made there with her.

Horrible? Maybe that wasn't the right word, actually. At the time, it had felt like the end of the world, but honestly, it hadn't been. When I left LAX on a one way flight to New York, with no intentions of ever returning to the golden coast, Dani had made sure that I had her number. Despite having it, though, I had never had any intention of texting or calling her. Something about the look she gave me though, before I left, told me that she thought otherwise. I hadn't had the heart to tell her that she was wrong, and that I really didn't have that intention.

However, as she had in the past, she seemed to know me better than myself. Two weeks later, despite objections from Rachel, I found myself texting Dani that I was glad I still had her number, because I sort of missed her. And that's how our texting life started. We talked about anything and everything and all things that came to our mind. We got to know each other as friends, for real, without any chance of slipping up and sleeping together while intoxicated.

Rachel seemed to strongly disapprove of my constant texting with my former girlfriend, but over the months, she got used to it. She even got Dani's number and the two of them started talking. The closer Dani and I got, though, the more often I felt insane butterflies dancing and twirling around in my stomach when her text tone went off. And we started calling each other more often, and hearing her voice made me smile more and more often.

I couldn't explain it for a while, but after almost exactly three months of being gone, it all made sense. No one stops feeling love like that, not even after the years we spent apart. That's why thinking back to high school had always hurt so much, because love like that doesn't die. It just doesn't. And it didn't. I knew that I needed to tell Dani my new revelation.

My phone beeped with the text tone that I had assigned for Santana. I had changed it for the sole purpose that if I was ignoring all text messages, I could keep from accidentally ignoring Santana. Because yeah, even now, I was still sort of whipped.

I quickly snatched it up and opened the text message.

From Santana- Hey! What are you up to?

To Santana- Texting you, obviously! :o) Why, what's up?

One text, and I was already grinning at my phone. Honestly, I sort of doubted my sanity at this point. After Santana had left three months ago, I had almost been convinced that she wasn't ever going to text me. However, I had given her my number for a reason. When I had run away from home, I had avoided her and stopped any way for her contact me. This time, neither of us were running, but I wasn't going to be the one that kept us apart, not this time.

I had been really happy when she finally did text me, and Davis had been plenty excited for me, but this friendship we'd been doing had not satisfied me. Yes, I would be fine with being just friends if I had to because, let's face it, I really didn't deserve anything more. I had abandoned her, after all. But I wasn't going to lie about the fact that I wanted to figure out some sort of way to be more than friends with her.

I wasn't going to tell her that, though, because I didn't deserve it. Also, it had been my fault that she came to California with me, and my fault that we slept together… basically, it all felt like it had been my fault, and I wasn't going to lead her into another problem or another mistake.

From Santana- I was wondering if we could talk about something?

My heart was racing.

SANTANA

I inhaled deeply, trying to calm myself down.

From Dani- Of course!

I was incredibly nervous for what I was about to ask her, but I knew that I had to, or I would never forgive myself.

To Dani- I was wondering… if you'd like to be my girlfriend? For real with no hiding. I have never been able to be rid of my feelings for you, and I don't think that I ever will. I love you, Dani Taylor, and I can't deny that anymore. And I don't know what will happen with us, because we live on two different sides of the freaking country now, but I don't care. All I care about is my future having your in it for every moment.

DANI

My jaw dropped open, and for good reason. Here I was thinking about how Santana would never want to be more than friends with me, and here she was suddenly telling me that she loves me, and that she wants to be my girlfriend.

To Santana- I don't even know what to say right now… I love you, Santana. I never stopped loving you either. No matter how much I tried to. And I would love to be your girlfriend.
