Santana Lopez walked into her secret girlfriend's house. "Rachel Berry!" she called out in sing song voice. They'd been together for six months and Santana was so happy. It was as if there wasn't a problem in the world when she was with Rachel. The brunette in question appeared in the front hallway. "Hi!" Santana said. Rachel smiled.
"Hey gorgeous." Rachel said. Santana smiled shyly and stood in front of the door. When she looked up, Rachel was gone.
"Rach?"
"In the living room." she called. Santana walked into the living room and saw Rachel sitting on the sectional couch. The Latina leaned against the door and just watched her girlfriend for a bit with a smile on her face. After a few minutes, Rachel crooked her finger, motioning for the Latina to join her. Santana pointed to herself.
"Who, me?" she jokingly asked. Rachel grinned and nodded. Santana slowly walked over to the couch and laid out on the lounge part, resting her head on Rachel's stomach. "Hi." she whispered.
"Hi." Rachel replied.
"So are you aware that it is torture to see you in those skirts every day?" Santana asked, grabbing the girl's hand and kissing it. Rachel raised an eyebrow.
"About as bad as it is to have to see you in this uniform every day?" Santana bit her lip, knowing where this conversation was heading.
"Rach..."
"I just don't see why you won't come out with me." Rachel said. Santana sat up.
"Its not because of you."
"Really? Because it feels like you're ashamed of me." Rachel argued.
"Baby, you know that's not true." Santana said.
"Then just come out with me! Can't we at least come out to the Glee Club?"
"Its not that simple. Rach, I'm just not ready." Santana said. Rachel sighed.
"Let's just watch a movie or something." Rachel said, shutting off completely.
"Rachel..."
"I want to watch a movie, Santana." Rachel said.
Across town, another secret couple was having a similar conversation. Brittany Pierce and Quinn Fabray - set up by Santana and Rachel - were in a similar predicament. Quinn refused to come out with Brittany. It certainly had nothing to do with Brittany's popularity level. Hello, she was on the Cheerios. It was just, Quinn wasn't sure how her family would react to her being gay.
"Quinn, why? Why can't we come out to Glee?" Brittany asked.
"B, you know how my parents are, especially my dad. I love being with you, but they will burn me like a witch if they find out." Quinn said. Brittany frowned. "Britt, it's not you... you know that." Quinn said. Brittany nodded.
"Okay." Brittany whispered.
"Come in." Rachel said. She was expecting to see Santana, so needless to say she was shocked when Brittany entered her room. "Hey Britt. What's up?" Rachel asked. Brittany smiled sadly. "Brittany are you okay?"
"No... Quinn won't come out with me." Brittany said, sitting on the bed.
"Still? You've been asking her for two months." Rachel said.
"I know."
"I get what you mean. Santana won't come out with me either. I've been asking her for three months." Rachel said.
"This sucks. Why don't they like us?" Brittany asked.
"Oh Britt, I don't think that that's the problem." Rachel said. Brittany snuggled closer to Rachel and placed her head on the diva's shoulder.
"I'd come out with you, Rach." Brittany said. Rachel smiled.
"Thanks, Britt. That really means a lot." Rachel said. Brittany sat up and slowly leaned in. "Britt... Britt, what are you doing?" she whispered.
"I'm about to kiss you." Brittany whispered.
"But... but... Santana and Quinn..."
"They don't care about us." Brittany whispered, softly kissing Rachel. Rachel kissed back, softly cupping Brittany's face as the blonde rested her hands on Rachel's hips. "Rach... do you wanna... ya know..." Rachel pulled away slightly.
"You mean... you want to have sex?" Rachel asked. Brittany nodded. "But Brittany, we can't cheat on Santana and Quinn."
"I think we just did."
"I think they could forgive us for kissing... but-"
"They don't have to find out." Brittany said. Rachel hesitated. "They don't care about us, Rach. They won't come out with us. Let's do it." Brittany continued. Rachel reached up and pulled Brittany's ponytail out of its holder.
"Okay." she whispered, kissing the blonde again before moving to straddle her.
Two days later, the two couples were hanging out at Santana's house. Rachel and Brittany had decided not to tell anyone tat they had sex. Rachel couldn't stop from feeling incredibly guilty as Santana held her close, sending her sweet smiles and giving her soft kisses. Rachel tried to smile back, but she was positive that it was coming across as a pained expression.
"Rach, you okay?" Santana whispered during a lull in the conversation. Rachel bit her lip and avoided Santana's gaze as she nodded. "You'd tell me if you weren't, right?"
"Yea, San. I would." Rachel whispered. Santana raised an eyebrow, but turned to the blondes, who seemed to be having a similar conversation.
"Okay, what's going on?" Quinn asked. Brittany and Rachel shrugged.
"Is something going on between you two?" Santana asked, laughing with Quinn. Once she saw Brittany and Rachel's exression, Santana quickly stopped laughing and removed her arm from Rachel's shoulders. "You two need to tell us what's going on right now." Santana said. Rachel knew from her girlfriend's expression that she wasn't playing around.
"Britt and I... we... we had sex." Rachel whispered, looking down. Brittany avoided Quinn's eyes as the two formerly unknowing Cheerios stared at the girlfriends in disbelief.
"What the fuck?" Santana asked.
"You what?" Quinn asked.
"Rach, tell me this isn't true." Santana said.
"San, I am so sorry." Rachel said. Santana shook her head and stood up.
"I want you out." she whispered. Rachel looked up with wide eyes.
"San..."
"Now. We're through, Rachel. Get out." Santana hissed.
"Quinn-" Brittany was cut off by her girlfriend.
"So are we, Britt. We're so done." Quinn said. Brittany looked down in shame.
"San, I'm so sorry." she said. Santana broke her glare with Rachel and slowly turned to Brittany.
"I want you out too. Both of you need to leave now." Santana said. Rachel started crying, but left the house anyway.
"Rachel, its been a week and I'm going crazy without Quinn." Brittany said, walking into the diva's room.
"I know what you're saying. Santana won't even insult me anymore, because that would require her to speak to me" Rachel said. Brittany nodded.
"You know what would drive them insane?" she asked. Rachel raised an eyebrow. "If you and I are started dating. They'd go crazy."
"Is that a good idea? I mean us getting together is what ruined our relationships." Rachel said.
"Yea, but you know that after a while, they'd get upset." Brittany said. Rachel hesitated. "Come on, Rach. You want San back and I want Q back. This is the only way." Brittany said.
"Yea. Fine, okay. We'll fake date to make them jealous." Rachel said.
"Q, I miss Rachel." Santana said, reaching for her phone. Suddenly, Quinn was on top of her.
"No. No! Put that phone down."
"Get off of me." Santana said. Quinn laughed and got off.
"S, you aren't gonna call Rachel and I'm not gonna call B."
"But I miss her!"
"No! She cheated on you. That means that you don't call her!" Quinn said.
"You're right. I'm sorry."
The next day, Santana and Quinn were reading a magazine in the choir room together. Everyone in Glee was there except for the football guys, because they had to practice for a game the next day. They looked up when everyone gasped and saw Brittany and Rachel holding hands. "The fuck?" Santana muttered. She started to stand up and ask Brittany what the fuck she thought she was doing with her girl, but Quinn stopped here.
"No more." Quinn reminded her. Santana nodded and leaned back in her chair, glaring at the two girls. "Hey Britt... what are you doing with Berry?" Quinn asked, faking a sweet tone.
"Well, Quinn, Brittany and I have decided to embark on a romantic relationship and we didn't want to hide it from anyone." Rachel said, making eye contact with Santana. Rachel bit her lip as she saw the hurt in Santana's eyes. The Latina quickly looked down and Rachel pulled Brittany to sit down. Brittany smiled at Rachel and leaned close.
"I think its working." she whispered softly. Rachel nodded, unable to speak.
"Brittany, this isn't working. Its been two weeks, and neither of them are cracking."
"Rachel, that's because they aren't on crack!" Brittany said. Rachel looke at her in disbelief.
"I... never mind. What I meant was, they aren't changing their minds." Rachel rephrased.
"Oh... well, we just have to give it time."
"Its been two weeks, Britt." Rachel said. Brittany shrugged. "I miss Santana. I want my girlfriend back."
"I want Q back too. I'm surprised you don't hate me... this is all my fault." Brittany said.
"B, I could never hate you... but I do think that while we thought it was a good idea at the time, its only just messed everything up. At least we had them in some way. Now we don't have them at all. I'd rather have Santana secretly than not have her at all." Rachel said. Brittany nodded.
"Just give it a few more days and then we'll see what happens." Brittany said.
"Q, I am going crazy. I've had to watch them for two weeks. Rachel is my girl." Santana hissed as they walked down the hall to go to Glee Club practice. Santana had had enough of Brittany and Rachel.
"I know how you feel. Watching Brittany kiss Man Hands-"
"Watch your mouth, Fabray." Santana said. Quinn raised her hand in surrender.
"Sorry... habit."
"Well break it." Santana said.
"Hey, I didn't say anything for six months. You aren't with her." Quinn said.
"But I want to be, so shut the fuck up." Santana said. Quinn nodded.
"Sorry... anyway, watching Brittany kiss Rachel has been killing me. I want her back too. But they cheated on us with each other. That's what hurts the most." Quinn said.
"You know what? I don't think that's why it hurt." Santana said.
"Yea, I know... but I'm not ready to admit that yet." Quinn whispered as they turned into the choir room to see Rachel on Brittany's lap kissing the blonde.
"You ready to admit it now?" Santana asked.
"Hell yea." Quinn said, walking over to the pair with Santana close behind. "Berry, that's enough. Off." Quinn said, grabbing Rachel by the arm and pulling her off Brittany. Rachel went stumbling back, only to be caught by Santana and twirled around to face the Latina.
"Hi." Santana whispered, kissing Rachel. Rachel smiled before pulling away.
"Exactly what do you think you're doing?" Rachel asked. Santana smiled hopefully.
"Kissing my girlfriend?" she asked.
"I'm not your girlfriend, remember? you broke up with me. I'm not saying you weren't right in breaking up with me, but you still broke up with me." Rachel said.
"Yea, Q. I'm with Rachel now." Brittany interjected.
"Are you guys saying you prefer being with each other than with us?" Quinn asked. Brittany and Rachel remained quiet. "Britt, I miss you. I love you. Please take me back." Quinn said.
"I love you too, Quinn." Brittany said, kissing the girl.
"Rach, come on. We were together six months." Santana whispered. Rachel nodded. "Rachel, I love you so much. I'm sorry I broke up with you. That's why it hurt so much that you cheated on me."
"You had every right to break up with me. I love you too. I was just so upset that you wouldn't come out with me." Rachel said. Santana smiled and pulled Rachel into her.
"You don't have to worry about that anymore. We're telling everyone we're together... if you'll take me back." Santana said. Rachel nodded.
"I should be the one begging for your forgiveness." she said.
"You have it babe. I love you." Santana said.
"I love you too." Rachel whispered.
"What?" a new voice asked. All four girls turned toward the intruder.
"Finn, please feel free to leave." Rachel said. The rest of the Glee Club filed in.
"What the fuck? Get out!" Santana said.
"Wait... Quinn, Rachel, you guys are gay now?" Finn asked. The two nodded. "What the fuck? Two of my girlfriends are fucking gay?" he yelled.
"And the girl you lost your virginity to." Kurt offered. Rachel glared at Santana.
"Oh you knew already." Santana said. Rachel rolled her eyes. "Anyway, this is kind of a private conversation, so you all could leave if you wanted." she continued.
"Yea well, I don't want to. You two can't be gay! Its not right!" Finn yelled.
"Finn, you don't really get to make that decision." Quinn said.
"Seriously, Finn. Back off. You dumped both of them. You don't control them." Santana said, pulling Rachel close to her again, frowning as Rachel held her tight. "You okay?" she whispered in her ear. Rachel shook her head. "Alright. Finn, calm the fuck down and back off my girl."
"Mine too." Brittany said.
"They're not your girls!" Finn yelled.
"I love Santana." Rachel said.
"And I love Britt." Quinn said. Finn shook his head.
"Get over yourself!" Santana yelled.
"Finn, go to the principal's office." Mr. Schue said, pushing the boy out of the room.
"Wow... how is it that he just sits there and watches us argue instead of stopping it at the beginning?" Santana asked. Rachel shrugged under Santana's arms. "Mmm... you okay mi estrella?" Santana asked. Rachel nodded.
"I am now." she said, smiling up at the Latina.
"B, you cool with me taking my baby back?" Santana asked her best friend, who was currently holding Quinn.
"Yea its cool. We weren't really dating anyway." Brittany said. Rachel's eyes widened and Quinn and Santana wore matching confused smirks.
"What do you mean?" Quinn asked.
"Britt's just joking, right Brittany?" Rachel asked.
"What are you talking about Rachel? We were pretending to date to make San and Quinn jealous. We were about to give up, remember?" Brittany asked. Rachel bit her lip and looked up at Santana, who was smirking.
"Oh really?" Santana asked.
"No, of course no... Oh whatever. Its amazing she was able to keep it quiet for this long." Rachel said. Santana laughed and leaned down.
"You missed me." she teased, kissing the diva.
"Well, duh!" Rachel said. Santana grinned and looked at Puck.
"What's your problem, Puckerman?" Santana asked.
"Lopez... we should have a threesome. You, me, and Rachel. What do ya say?" Puck asked, snapping out of his daze. Santana shrugged.
"Sure, why not?" Rachel hit Santana in the stomach. "Ugh... damn it, Rachel." Santana groaned, looking at the diva, who was shaking her head. "What I meant to say was, shut up, Puckerman. There's no fucking way in hell that I'd allow you to get up on this." Santana said, gesturing toward Rachel.
"But S-"
"I'm the only one who's allowed to see this." Santana said.
"Okay, San. That's enough." Rachel said. Puck shrugged and turned to the blondes.
"What about you two?" he asked. Brittany nodded and looked at Quinn.
"Sure. Whatever. Just don't get me pregnant again." Quinn said.
"Hey... maybe we can have one some time!" Matt piped up.
"Maybe." Quinn said before Brittany could say yes. Santana rolled her eyes and kissed Rachel. It quickly turned into a full-blown makeout session.
"This is good enough." Puck said. Santana pulled away.
"You always were good at ruining a moment, Puck." she said.
"San." Rachel said, glaring. She didn't like to be reminded of Santana's past sexual experiences.
"I love you, Rach." Santana said, smiling.
"Mmhmm... I love you too."
