Chapter 13

It had been about 10 minutes since the date had ended and Santana had dropped Brittany off at her apartment before making her way home.

As soon as Brittany opened the door to the apartment, she was ambushed by a crazy looking Quinn.

"I want to know everything!" Quinn dramatically stated while pulling an eye rolling Brittany to the couch.

"Okay, okay." Brittany kicked her heels off and started.

FLASHBACK

Santana and Brittany finished their shared dinner which consisted of Santana cutting the steak up and feeding it to a cheery Brittany and the blonde feeding the Latina mouthfuls of pasta.

"So I don't get it. Why is the fire blue?" Brittany wiped some pasta sauce from the corner of the Latina's mouth, successfully making the other girl blush.

"Oh, the wood is driftwood. There's some stuff in that to make the fire turn blue. The Pop Rocks was my accidental discovery." Santana grinned sheepishly.

"Tell?" Brittany looked at the other girl with a glint in her eyes.

"Not much to tell." Santana chuckled. "Well, we were out having a bonfire at the beach and we made the fire but had no idea we were using driftwood. So, this bit's embarrassing but when I was in high school, I was in the glee club." Santana looked at Brittany who just smiled sweetly at her and picked up her chair and scooted next to her.

"So, of course the fire turned blue and we all started clapping. But there was this annoying boy called Jacob and he was eating Pop Rocks like RIGHT next to my ear. So I grabbed to packet and threw it into the fire and then it turned purple and you know the rest." Santana finished and smiled at the flashback. "So, yes, it was all me."

"That's awesome." Brittany smiled, leaned over and pressed her lips to the corner of the Latina's mouth.

"You have no idea! I think it went well but then she kissed me and I freaked out!" Santana was jumping on her couch and yelling through the phone to her best gays.

FLASHBACK

Santana was dumbstruck and blushing like a tomato. Brittany just grinned and looked around the city again.

"So, can I interest you with any dessert tonight?" The waitress had returned and looked expectantly at the Latina.

"Y-Yeah. The- The... Umm.." Santana mumbled something in Spanish and looked down to her lap.

The blonde smiled at her date's cuteness and took a dessert menu from the waitress and quickly skimmed through.

At once, a name jumped out at her and she grinned and pointed to it on the menu, without a word. The waitress cocked her head and Brittany checked to see if Santana was watching, and when she saw that the Latina was texting someone, she nodded and smiled. The waitress then left.

A few seconds later Santana looked up and saw Brittany's eyes pouring into her own. They were so full of love and innocence and the brunette couldn't help but smile back.

END FLASHBACK

"So I was basically having a panic attack then and there. It's a wonder Brittany didn't call 911."

"I'm sorry but when you text someone during a date and the text says: helop! i'm freajking iut ands shje jstdd kisfsdetd mewee! It usually needs to be ignored." Kurt chuckled through the phone.

"Shut up 'Gay Boy' and put Blainsey on."

xoxoxoxx

"And well, I ordered this thing that I saw on the menu because well.."

"San? You okay?" Brittany looked at the Latina with a playful smirk.

"Yeah, umm. Yes, I'm great." Santana coughed awkwardly and looked around.

The blonde just grinned at the side of the Latina's face and threw more Pop Rocks into the fire.

"So, tell me more about you. Like, what's your favourite colour? How old are you? How did you get into the magazine business? Where did you grow up?" Brittany just shot random questions at the unsuspecting brunette out of the blue.

"Well, my favourite colour is red but I also like purple. I'm 24 years old. I got into the magazine business because I did an internship at 'Runway' and I was the new 'Emily' or something for like, 4 years so then Miranda called up 'Flaunt It' because they owed her a favour and she asked them for me to start working there so you know the rest. And I grew up right here, New York City." Santana rounded off with a smile and took a sip from her wine.

"Wow.." Brittany could only smile and admire her date's features, illuminated by the purple fire.

The waitress then returned with a plate that she placed in front of the two women who were now on one side of the table. She simply smiled, wished the couple a good night and left.

"I swear Blaine, she's the cutest girl ever! She even ordered the dessert that was named after me. She is so special..."

FLASHBACK

Santana looked down to the dish that held two stacks of dessert. The Latina smiled and remembered that the dessert was in fact named after herself and her badass-ness.

Brittany examined the little stacks of sliced fruits and paper thin circular plates of chocolate stacked in between the fruit. To top it off were glazed cherries. Brittany looked at the delicacies in awe.

"Why did Puck name this after you? Don't tell me you invented this too." Brittany was still awestruk by the delicate towers. "They look amazing. Wait, is that gold?"

Santana simply smiled and ducked a little to look at the stacks herself. True, she had come up with the recipe but she'd taught Puck well. She was also flattered that Puck had named the dish after her. The Stacks of Satan. Ingenious.

"Yeah, it's edible gold. Even food has to have class." Santana winked and picked a cherry off one of the desserts and held it in front of Brittany's pink lips that turned into a smile. "Open up."

Brittany obliged and took the sweet fruit out of Santana's caramel fingers.

"Mmmm." Brittany hummed in approval of the fruit.

Santana just grinned and started to cut up the desserts.

END FLASHBACK

"Then we just ate and Puck, being the gentleman he is, said that the meal was free of charge. And Brittany was so cute, she took the unopened bag of Pop Rocks home with her. She's such a cutie!" Santana squealed over the phone.

"That's great Santana. And it's kinda like 12am now so I gotta go. But we have to do coffee or drinks sometime. And I want to meet this mystery girl, kay?"

"Yeah, no worries Blainsey. See you later. BYE GAY BOY!" Santana yelled out the last part in hope that Kurt had heard it.

"Later, Satan!" A barely audible Kurt yelled through the phone.

oxoxoxox

"So then she dropped me home and here I am. Oh, and I brought back a packet of Pop Rocks." Brittany rounded off and rummaged through her purse eventually pulling out the pack of candy.

"That does sound nice. I want to go there and see the rainbow fire." Quinn pouted.

"Well, you'll have to become friends with Puck or have heaps of cash." Brittany recited from earlier that night.

"Whatever, it would've been a good photographic experience. I'm going to bed." Quinn got up from the couch, pecked Brittany's cheek and made her way down the hall.

"Night!" Brittany called after.

The blonde sat there for a moment and was trying to dig up her old memories when photography was the only thing that Quinn was into. Then came work, money, taxes, social life. She sighed and got up from the couch and trudged back to her room.

Her phone then beeped indicating a new message. It was from 'Sanny'. Brittany smiled and opened it.

Hope you had a good night coz i did!
Sweet dreams, beautiful.

-San xoxo

The blonde smiled and sent her own equally sweet goodnight text back to her date.

Of course i did.
You are so special to me.
Thanks x10000

Love Britt xoxo
