"You're seriously stressing me out right now, Rachel." Brittany huffed while typing frantically on her laptop.
"Me?! Really? Maybe if you actually made a fu-." Rachel was interrupted when the phone began ringing on Brittany's desk. Brittany diverted her gaze and picked up the phone.
"Yes, Pierce-Berry des-. Oh, hi Tina, yes... well I would need you to work with the new guy on it. His name is Artie, he should be here in around an hour" Brittany said and continued to nod along to whatever Tina was saying on the phone. "Thank you, okay bye." Brittany put the phone down and turned her attention back to her laptop. After a brief moment of silence Rachel spoke.
"You're just going to sit there?"
"Yep." Brittany replied, not moving her eyes off the screen. Rachel just sat back down at her desk and was about to make some calls.
"Rach?"
"Yes, Brittany?" Rachel said bluntly.
"Love youuu." Brittany said in her most childish tone, which was very unlike her.
Rachel just shook her head. "Love you too." She mumbled. "Coffee? I need a break."
"I'll-I'll get it, Rach!" Brittany said standing up.
Rachel raised her eyebrow a little. "Okay, crazy."

"Santana, you need to work over time tonight." A girl yelled form across the coffee house.
"Oh, okay." Santana sighed whipping over a few tables when she looked up at the familiar blonde from yesterday walking in. Santana quickly walked over to the counter and stood behind one of the other workers while they were serving.
"I'll take over Marie." Santana half smiled and stepped up to the counter.
Brittany was at the back of the line, which was only three people-or-so long, and she was getting her purse out.
"Santana." Brittany smiled up when she was next. Santana blushed a little. "Hello, what can I get you…" She trailed off.
"Brittany. Brittany Pierce." Brittany smiled. "I'll have a coffee please."
"As in Pierce-Berry designs?" Santana question, still not looking Brittany right in the eye.
"Yeah, my studio's not far from here." She smiled.
Santana turned around and began preparing Brittany's coffee. "I'm a big fan of your work." Santana said.
"Thank you."
"That'll be $3.15, please." Santana smiled.
Brittany gave Santana the money, and again, refused the change. She knew Rachel wouldn't be happy about her staying out of the office for longer than she needed to, but she didn't care.
Brittany sat and opened her laptop, deciding to work a little here, it was a bit of a distraction from the office. Especially with the beautiful waitress who she couldn't stop herself from staring at.
Santana continued whipping down the tables and she noticed Brittany staring up at her. She bit her lip a little a looked down.
"You're making me nervous." Santana said, glancing up at Brittany.
Brittany giggled a little. "I don't see why."
"You're staring at me." Santana blushed.
"I can't help it." Brittany smiled. "I have to go now. I'll see you. Okay?"
"Okay. See you." Santana smirked and watched as Brittany walk out the door.

"Quinn Fabray just called me." Rachel announced as Brittany walked back into the office.
"Really, why?" Brittany asked.
"Where have you been by the way, and where's my coffee?" Rachel questioned.
"Oh, I stayed in the coffee house for a little while, forgot to bring you one back sorry. So what did Quinn want?"
"It's fine." Rachel sighed. "She invited us to an event tonight, do you want to come?"
"I guess, yeah." Brittany said. "Where is it?"
"At that new club downtown, I'll pick you up if you want?" Rachel asked.
"Okay, well I'm gonna head home now, if that's okay?"
"Yeah, that's fine. I'll pick you up at 9."
Brittany smiled and began her journey home, she wasn't really feeling up to going out tonight. She considered texting Rachel and saying she was sick. Work had really been stressing her out lately and she just wanted some time to herself.
Rach, I'm not really feeling up to tonight. I'm a little sick. Sorry. –B
Get well soon babe. See you Monday. –R
It was just past 7pm and it was getting kind of dark outside, Brittany laid down on her bed and tried to relax a little and oddly enough her mind kept jumping to Santana. She barely even knew the girl, but what she did know she liked, the girl seemed shy, and nervous. The way she would blush so easily and bit her lip the way she did. She wasn't confident around Brittany, she was so sweet... innocent. Brittany liked that. Brittany apartment was only 5 minutes away from her studio, which she was thankful for. So, it was only a short walk from the coffee house. She decided to stop in for a coffee, she was really hoping the girl was there, but she wasn't getting her hopes to high. As she left her apartment she was instantly hit with the cold air of New York and bit her lip as she cringed at the cold. She ventured on the short walk and sighed with relief when she saw the lights from the coffee house, and she was relieved when the warmth covered her as she walked inside. Brittany sub-consciously scanned the coffee house in search for the girl, and was slightly dis heartened when she was not in sight. Brittany walked up to the counter to be greeted by a cheery, blonde girl.
"Hello, can I help?" She smiled brightly at Brittany.
"Yes, a coffee to go please."
The blonde girl smiled and typed in Brittany's order into the register.
"And do you know where S-Santana is?" Brittany asked.
The waitress was making up Brittany's order for her and put it on the counter infront of her. "She's not her, she works from 9 until 4." She told her.
Brittany handed the girl the money for her order and smiled. "Can I give you a note to give to her?" Brittany asked cautiously.
The girl gave Brittany her change and smiled. "Sure."
Brittany got out some paper and her pen from her bag and began scribbling on the paper. She folded the note up tight and handed it to the blonde behind the counter. "Thank you."
As Brittany walked out of the coffee house she smirked at how different she was acting, she'd neve go out of her way for a girl before. Leaving notes and stuff, it wasn't her thing. Maybe for her it would be different.
