After a while the storm has died down into a light drizzle before the sun came through the clouds again. Brittany still held on to Santana tightly, who now sat down on a rock, leaning against the cave wall. The Latina's arms were tightly around Brittany's waist, not wanting to let go yet. Santana caught herself sniffing at the blonde's hair. Oh God, she smells so good..Wait why do I think that? I'm just being silly. Hoping Brittany didn't notice anything, Santana pulled back a little to create some space between them. Brittany turned around to face the Latina with a huge smile on her face. "Look Santana, the sun is out again! Can we go to the beach now? Please?" Brittany had a pout on her lips and was begging with her eyes. Santana stared at the piercing blue eyes right in front of her when she opened her mouth to speak.. "Of course, let's go!" The blonde jumped up immediately, grabbing the Latina's hand and dragging her out the cave towards the beach where they met earlier.
The beach was still empty but soon all the sunbathers would be back. The two girls were still running around the beach, their hands still interlaced. After running for about half an hour, Santana got tired and was now dragged by the blonde who didn't seem weary at all. "Brittany, I have to stop. Please, my legs hurt.." Santana stopped right there, bending over to put her hands on her knees and breathe severely. She let her head hang down between her legs, trying to take in deep breaths to fill her lungs with oxygen again. Brittany stopped immediately and turned around towards Santana. "No San, you have to stand up straight or lie down to breath properly. Here let me help you.." The blonde stepped behind Santana and grabbed her shoulders, pulling them up gently towards her own chest, pulling the Latina's arms up behind her head. "Now, isn't that better?" Brittany asked with concern in her voice. Santana took a few deep breaths and slowly she was feeling better. "Yeah thanks Brittany, I'm better now..Uhm, can you let me go now?" Santana didn't really want to let go of her but people looking at them made her nervous. The blonde let go and let out a little sigh, unnoticed by Santana. They fell into a comfortable silence walking back to where they came from. "Hey why don't we go for a swim? " Brittany looked hopefully, wanting to be around the dark haired girl in front of her. Brown met blue again. "Sure, why not. But let's go to my place. The beach is more quiet and we can get some towels too." The blonde almost jumped up when Santana said this with a grin on her face. "Oh but Britt, no running this time.." Santana winked at the girl before leading her towards the beach house.
The house was only a 5 minute walk and the beach was empty except for one family who owned a house a couple houses further from Santana's. They stepped up to the house "Wait here B. I'm going to grab some towels. Do you have a swimsuit?" Brittany shrugged before she answered. "Oh, no. I forgot this morning.." A pout came on her lips, looking down to her feet. She looks so adorable when she does that..Damn Lopez! Get a hold on yourself. "Come on in, you can borrow some of mine.." The blonde ran towards Santana, pulling her into a tight hug. "Really? Aw thanks!" Santana stumbled a bit backwards before embracing the hug from her new friend. "Yeah come on."
Her parents weren't home so they went to Santana's room immediately. She opened her drawer, looking for a bikini to fit the blonde. She grabbed a green bikini top with shorts and held them out to Brittany who had jumped onto the bed and was now on her knees looking around the Latina's room. "Will these be alright?" The blonde nodded and a grin appeared on her face. " You can change in the bathroom. It's across the hall." Brittany grabbed the bikini from Santana's hand and placed a small peck on the cheek of the Latina "Thanks!" Santana was left standing in shock and confused. What the.. This girl is weird. I know her for like 5 seconds and she is acting like I'm her best friend since kindergarten. And I'm doing exactly the same…Just weird.
After Brittany changed her clothes they ran back out of the house towards the beach. Santana had grabbed some towels that she now spread out on the sand. Brittany didn't bother to stop and ran non-stop to the water while calling Santana over. "Come on San! The water is great!" Santana removed her tank top and shorts and ran over to the splashing blonde. When the Latina approached Brittany, she saw the blonde running towards back to her, splashing the water around. Before she could realize want the blonde was about to do, Santana fell back into the water with Brittany on top of her. When they reached the surface again, both of them couldn't stop laughing. Normally Santana wouldn't let anyone get away with something like this but the blonde made her somehow soft. She didn't care. But she was going to let the blonde pay for this by jumping on top of her, trying to get her under the water. This time Brittany was caught by surprise. When she reached the surface again she grabbed Santana by her wrists and pulling her closer. They were now face to face, inches away. The stared at each other a few moments. She really really has soft hands. I'm wondering if.. Santana's thoughts were abruptly disturbed by a exited scream that came out of the blonde's mouth before she was under the surface again. They went on like this for 2 hours. Running away, grabbing each other, pulling one another in the water. When they got tired they went back to their towels on the beach for some tanning.
Santana almost nodded off before she got shaken up by a bubbly blonde who was now screaming in her ear. "Saaaaaaaaan! Wake up! I'm hungry!" The Latina sighed while burying her face in her arm. "Eat later, now sleep" Santana was still very tired from the long flight so she couldn't really speak in full sentences. Brittany let out a chuckle and started nudging on Santana's arm, trying to get her up. "Come on San, I'm really hungry and it's also really late.." Santana tilted her head a bit up looking around and saw the sun was already very low. She looked at her watch and saw it was already 7.26 pm. Immediately she jumped up still looking around a bit confused, remembering where she was and who the blonde next to her was. "Uhm..Brittany I think I have to go now. I should go home for dinner" Santana softly smiled but was actually sad that she had to leave the blonde. Brittany immediately had a sad look on her face and her eyes were tearing up. "Oh ok San..I guess I see you later then. Bye" the blonde said before turning around slowly to walk back to her hotel. Santana hated the way she felt right now. Upset that the girl she just met was about to leave and she didn't know if she would ever see her again. "Britt wait!" Oh my God..I'm already giving her nicknames.
"Do you have to go? Or can we have dinner together? I mean if you want to.." Lopez what are you doing? The blonde turned back around and skipped back to the Latina. "No not really, I mean my parents don't mind." She says with a shrug. Santana stared back at the blonde who was waiting for a question. . Ugh screw this. I like her. "Alright then, we can have dinner together. Hold on a second, I'm gonna ask my parents if it's ok to go into town." Santana winked at Brittany who now had a smile across her mouth.
"Ok let's go Britt!" Santana's parents agreed that she could go into town but she had the be home before midnight. Brittany jumped back up from the sand the minute she saw the Latina walking towards her with a big grin on her face and her eyes lit with excitement. "Where are we going?" the blonde asked a bit confused. "Into town, grabbing some dinner. I know this great place to eat" They walked side by side in the atmospheric streets, slipping through the crowd of people. Santana noticed the blonde had difficulty keeping up because she looked around the town in a gaze so she grabbed her hand pulling her closer, trying not to lose her in the crowd. "This way B."
After walking about 10 min. they reached their destination. They stopped in front of a little restaurant with an old man behind the bar. As they stepped inside the man's eyes got wide when he recognized the Latina. "Dios mio, Santana, es usted?" Santana winked and smiled to the man genuinely before giving him a big hug. "Si Enrico, soy yo" They rambled on for a while in Spanish before Santana turned to face Brittany. "Enrico, este es mi amiga Brittany." The man smiled politely to the blonde who looked a bit shy, because she didn't understand a word of what Santana was saying but she liked it. "Brittany, this is Enrico. He's an old friend of my dad and he owns this place. You won't find place with better food." Brittany suddenly remembered she was hungry and nodded her head firmly. "Alright then, lets order something to eat!" Santana turned back to Enrico, who was pointing to the table on the right where the girls could sit. "Britt, do you like chicken?" the blonde nodded, still not being able to speak. "Enrico, puedo obtener Arroz con Polo para el dos de nosotros? Y por favor, un poco de agua?"The man nodded and then turned to walk to the back and yell something into the kitchen. The girls took their seats at the tables. Brittany, still a bit confused and shy. Santana noticed the blonde was a bit off. "What's wrong Britt? Why are you so quiet all of a sudden?" Brittany turned her head so she was looking right into the Latina's big brown eyes and instantly a grin appeared on her face. "Oh nothing San. I'm just impressed. You know, you speaking Spanish and knowing your way in a big city like this.." Santana chuckled and shrugged. "I come here every year, remember? And I still have some family here. My roots are right here. My abuela was born and raised here until she was 17 and she and her boyfriend, now my grandfather, brothers and sister moved to America when their parents died. My dad…" Santana was interrupted by Enrico who was bringing their food, placing it in between the girls. "Muchas gracias!"
"Dig in Britt, it's really good!" Both girls grabbed their forks at the same time and started eating. Brittany took a few bites from the plate, tasting everything. The chicken, the rice.. It was all so delicious. "God San, this is fantastic! I could eat this everyday" Santana couldn't help but smile at the blonde. She was satisfied that she like the food. "I know B. it's my favorite. So, you are here with your family?" Santana was interested in the blonde's life. Where did she live, how was her family, does she have a pet,… She wanted to know everything about the blonde. "Uhm, yeah me and my family stay at the Hilton." Brittany was a bit hesitant, looking down to the table. Santana felt the blonde was getting tensed. "I hope it was okay for them to take you to dinner? They aren't going to be mad, are they?" Brittany looked back up staring at Santana's eyes who was trying to read the blonde's expression but she couldn't . "No not at all..San, I have to tell you something about my family.."
