Chapter 7: White Horse
BRITTANY POV:
"San!" I call out as I step out onto the roof. Our school has a flat roof so you can walk on it. You're not supposed to be able to get up there but me and Santana found the entrance behind the auditorium years ago. It's a really good place to think "San!" I see Quinn standing by a pillar. Once Quinn spots me she looks apologetically and gestures around the corner. I nod, I understand Santana. Sometimes she doesn't let anyone else in but me. She didn't even used to let me in. I soon spot her. She's sitting against the back wall with her head buried in her knees, crying her eyes out. I don't say anything; I just walk up to her and wrap my arms around her. She's shaking. I press a gentle kiss to the top of her head and she looks up at me with a tear stained face.
"I-I want to forgive her Brit. S-so bad. I-I just ca-an't. She-she's hurt me to-too much this time." She sobs into my shoulder and I rub her back comfortingly. We sit in silence bar the sobs. Santana doesn't need me to interrogate her. She just needs me to be there for her. Finally she stops sobbing so violently and looks up at me again.
"I can't lose you Brit. I just can't. I'm just so afraid that she'll take you away from me."
"I would never leave you." I tell her. It's true, I'd never leave Santana, I can't imagine what my life would be like without her. "Maybe your Abuela is what you need right now. I mean, she seems to want you to forgive her really badly."
"What if she hurts me again Brit? I can't cope with that."
"I'll be there for you whatever happens Santana. It's your life. Not hers or mine, we can't tell you what to do. No one can. We can just try and point you in the right direction."
"You're so smart Brit-Brit. The smartest person I know." I love the way she calls me smart. It makes me feel better about myself. Oh my god I have an idea!
"San I know what you should do." I tell her
"What?"
"Okay so you know that she got Finn and Kurt to sing you that song right?" She nods "Well that must mean they have contact with her so if you sing a song and get Kurt to film it then it'll be like sending a message back to her"
"Brittany that's genius!" She smiles "I know exactly what song as well" I smile, so do I.

ALMA POV:
That evening Finn and Kurt walked into the spare room I'd been staying in. I'd been living at Burt's house so that he could keep an eye on me and help rehabilitate me so I can understand more about Santana and Brittany's relationship. Kurt hands me a disk and tells me it's a message from Santana. I don't know what to expect. They told me that she got my message. Will this be a song too? I ask them to leave and push the disk in the DVD player. Santana's face appears on the screen. She's on her school stage in a beautiful black dress. It's just her up there, no backing singers. Brittany is sat at the piano ready to play but she won't sing. It'll be just Santana and her voice and her guitar. Not many people know Santana plays guitar. I'm guessing they do now. She starts playing, I don't know the song but I'm pretty sure it's Taylor Swift. She starts to sing, her voice is beautiful, as always, but there's something more this time, something real. Pain.
SANTANA:
Say you're sorry
That face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you
Holding on
The days drag on
Stupid girl,
I should have known, I should have known
She's not stupid. How could she know I'd react like that.
That I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale,
I'm not the one who'll have family,
People to-o count on,
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down,
Now it's too late for you and your white horse to come around
She's changing the words. She does have family though. She has me. But she can trust me. Family is people you trust. Right?
Maybe I was naive,
Got lost in your mind
And never really had a chance
My mistake, I didn't know to be in love
I had to fight for who I want to choose
You don't! Not anymore! I'm so sorry Santana.
I had so many dreams
About you and me
Happy endings
Now I know
There will be a happy ending for us! I promise, just let me in!
That I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale,
I'm not the one who'll have family,
People to-o count on,
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down,
Now it's too late for you and your white horse to come around
It can't be too late. It's never too late. Please. The tears are already flowing from both our eyes.
And there you are on your knees,
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry
Don't be sorry, it's all my fault princessa.
Cause I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairy tale,
I'm gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
I will treat you well! I promise!
It is a big world, this is a small town
You're in my rear view mirror disappearing now
And it's too late for you and your white horse
Now it's too late for you and your white horse to catch me now
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it's too late
To catch me now
"I can't" Santana whispers to the camera. To me. She then runs off the stage crying. The film stops.
"Oh Santana. Please forgive me!" I beg. She can't hear me though. She's not here. She'll never be here. I might as well just give up.
...
Okay so the song was White Horse by Taylor Swift (incase you hadn't figured that out)
