Here is chapter 2! Enjoy!

*I do not own Glee, or anything affiliated with Glee*

Both girls disappeared into their apartments. Dani went in and immediately stripped off the annoying red uniform, and took a shower. She threw on some underwear and a bigger rolling stones t-shirt before going back into the living room. She had planned on staying up a little late tonight to unpack boxes. She was midway through her first box when her phone chimed.

From Unknown: Hola neighbor!

Dani smiled knowing it was Santana, and saved the number.

To Santana: I wondered how long it would take you to text me ;)

Dani got a reply almost immediately.

From Santana: I didn't want you to think I was hitting on you or anything ;)

To Santana: Ohh okay! ;) What are you up to?

Dani sat her phone down, and decided she was going to try and put her coffee table together. She went searching for a screwdriver.

After a few minutes of an unsuccessful search she went back to her couch, and her screen lit up with another message.

From Santana: Just got out of the shower. Enjoying a beer, and some Grey's Anatomy in my comfy sweats. You?

To Santana: Mmm beer sounds good. I was actually going to attempt to put my coffee table together, but I can't find a screwdriver anywhere.

From Santana: I can bring you one. What kind do you need?

To Santana: Are you sure? I don't want to interrupt your night.

From Santana: Haha yes I'm sure. I'm not doing anything productive. I can bring a couple of beers and help you with your table. What kind of screwdriver do you need?

To Santana: Okay. I need a flathead. Just knock when you get down here. :)

Dani stood up and looked in the mirror on her wall, and tried to do something with her post shower hair. She looked down and realized she didn't have any pants on. She took of into her room, and dug through boxes until she found a pair of shorts. She heard a knock at the door, as she was pulling on her shorts. "Just a sec!" Dani yelled, making her way to the door tripping over boxes.

She swung open the door, practically out of breath. Santana stood there with a 6 pack of beer in one hand and a screw driver in the other. "Are you alright?" Santana chuckled at Dani.

Dani laughed "Yeah, I-Uh just forgot I didn't have any pants on when I told you to come over." Dani could feel her cheeks burning.

"Well damn, I should've walked faster."

Dani rolled her eyes, and took a step to the left moving out of the way, and motioned for Santana to come in.

"Have a seat." Dani said following Santana to the couch and sitting next to her.

"Thanks for coming over. Unpacking is such a pain in the ass."

"No problem." Santana bent over and grabbed two beers. "Thirsty?" Santana asked handing one over to Dani.

"Ahh yes! Thank you." Dani quickly pulled off the tab and took a long swig. "Okay let's get this table put together."

Both girls took a seat on the floor placing their beers next to them, and began to seperate the pieces and screws into piles. Santana read the instruction's, while Dani tried to put the pieces together.

"Okay, The "A" Leg goes into the corner labeled "C" with a number two screw." Santana said with an eyebrow raised.

"This is going to be harder than I thought." Dani said grabbing one of the pieces.

Santana decided to make small talk while Dani assembled the table. "Where did you stay before you moved here?" She took a sip of her beer.

"I was actually staying in a shitty hotel. When I got here a month ago, I had no where to go. I had no plan. Hell, I slept in my car the first two nights. I called around a bit and found a small hotel that would let me stay for $75 a week. It was all I could do until I got a job. Finally, after about a month of job searching, I got a call from Gunther and got the job at the diner. I took the last of my money and put a down payment on this apartment. So, here I am." Dani said as she finished attaching one of the legs of the table.

"You're really brave, Dani."

Dani just shrugged her shoulders and took and drink of her beer, not taking Santana's statement very seriously.

"I'm serious, Dani. If I didn't have Rachel and Kurt to rely on when I got here, my ass would still be in Ohio. You came here with nothing. You're a bad ass." Santana said with all seriousness.

"Thanks. I just did what I had to do. There was no way in hell I was going to go crawling back to Texas. That would only give my parents satisfaction, knowing I failed."

"Well, I think you've proved yourself." Santana held up her beer bottle to Dani. "Cheers to new beginnings."

Dani clinged her bottle against Santana's. "Cheers." Both girls smiled at each other and took another drink.

After a few too many beers, and a couple of laughs later they finally got the table put together. Dani stood up from the floor, and extended her hand to help Santana up. The two girls fell lazily back onto the couch.

"I must say, we make a pretty good team." Dani said looking over at the other girl.

"I'll second that. We made that table our bitch!" Santana looked down to grab another beer, but noticed the six pack was empty. "Wow, we drank all those beers in no time."

"Thanks for coming over. I had fun tonight. You're like the first friend I made while I've been here. Well, besides Rhonda, my crack head slash prostitute neighbor at the hotel." Dani laughed

"It was my pleasure. Just don't tell Rhonda. I don't want her getting jealous." Santana said, trying not to laugh.

"Don't worry. Your secret is safe with me."

"Well, I better get going." Santana said standing up.

"I'll walk you out."

Santana turned around facing the couch, and pulled at Dani's hand helping her up. When Dani stood up she lost her balance, and fell into Santana.

"Whoa, girl. Is Dani Williams buzzed off 3 beers?" Santana held onto the girls waist, leveling her.

"Maybe just a little. I'm kind of a lightweight." Dani chuckled nervously, realizing the close proximity between her and Santana. "Uhh, let's get you home."

Dani followed Santana out into the hallway. "I had fun tonight." Dani piped up.

"Me too. Do you work tomorrow?"

"Nope. I am off tomorrow, then I work until Saturday." Dani said recalling her new schedule.

"I'm off tomorrow too. Maybe I'll see you?" Santana asked in a hopeful tone.

"That's a possibility."

"Awesome. I'll talk to you later then."

"Goodnight, Santana."

Santana made her way to her door, and waived goodybe to Dani before entering. Dani waived back and went back in to her apartment.

Dani woke up fairly early the next morning. She plugged her phone into her speaker played some music, and started unpacking more boxes.

Santana woke up early as well. Not because she wanted to, but her phone kept ringing. She was trying to ignore it, but after the fifth time, she decided to see who called.

Santana glanced down at her phone, "Hobbit." She hit the call back button and waited for Rachel to answer. When Rachel answered all Santana could hear was high pitched screaming and squealing.

"Rachel, why are you screaming? And why are you calling me so early?"

"I got it, Santana! I got the part! I got Funny Girl!"

"It's about damn time. Congratulations, Rachel! We totally have to celebrate tonight!" Santana was always down for a party.

"I agree! Kurt has to go to work in a little bit, but he gets of at 9. So be here by 9:30!"

"Awesome! I'll bring the booze." Santana was the only one with a fake ID out of the three.

"Okay! See you later!"

Santana was really happy for the Rachel. She had been working her ass off to get the part, and she finally did. Santana was actually kind of excited about the party later, so she decided to get her day started. She went to the kitchen and saw she had nothing but carrots, cheese, and a couple of bottles of water in her refrigerator. She was used to Rachel and Kurt keeping the refrigerator stocked. She hated going to the grocery store, but she was starving. Santana went into her room and changed clothes and headed out of the apartment.

When Santana entered the hallway she could hear a faint sound of music, that she knew was coming from Dani's. She stood there silently, trying to hear what song it was. After a few seconds she heard the familiar lyrics to the song Back To Black, by Amy Winehouse. Santana loved that song, and she remembered singing it at McKinley for an audition.

As she headed towards the elevator, she drafted a text to Dani.

To Dani: Early morning jam sesh with Amy Winehouse? Sounds fun!

Santana got to the main floor and exited the building before her phone chimed again.

From Dani: Oh shit! You could hear that? I didn't think I had it up that loud.

To Dani: Relax haha. I was out in the hallway when I heard it. Even then I could barely hear it.

Santana walked down the busy New York street, trying to hail a taxi. Finally after about 2 minutes one stopped. When she got in her phone chimed once more.

From Dani: Whew! ;) What are you out doing so early?

Santana told the driver which store to go to before drafting another text to Dani.

To Dani: I'm headed to the grocery store. I have carrots, cheese, and water in my fridge haha. I'm starving. What are you doing up so early?

From Dani: More unpacking! :( I'm almost finished though. I just have to get my clothes put away.

The cab pulled up in front of the small corner grocery store. Santana paid the driver and exited the cab. As she walked in, it dawned on her that she should invite Dani to come with her to Rachel and Kurt's loft later. She drafted a text to Rachel before replying to Dani.

To Rachel: Do you care if I bring Dani with me later? She doesn't really have friends here, and I don't want her sitting at home alone.

From Rachel: Aww so cute! Of course she can come!

Santana rolled her eyes at the first part. Obviously she was attracted to Dani, but she wanted to take things slow.

To Dani: So Rachel got a role in Funny Girl, and her, Kurt, and I are having a party at their loft later to celebrate. Would you want to join me? It's at 9:30 and there will be booze! :)

From Dani: Of course! Sounds fun! I'll meet you at your apartment at 9:15...?

To Dani: Sounds good! See you later!

Santana got some groceries, a bottle of champagne and a bottle of vodka. She normally didn't splurge, but she knew tonight would be a good one. When she got back to her apartment she made herself something to eat before taking a nap. She wanted to be well rested for the party.

When Dani made plans for later she immediately panicked. She had no idea what she was going to wear. Most of her clothes were scattered across her room or in boxes. She wasn't even sure if she should dress up or not. She wanted to look cute, but not over dressed. She picked out a pair of skinny blue jeans, a brown tank top that showed just enough cleavage, a blue jean jacket, and brown heels to pair it all off. She was super excited for tonight. Mainly because she would get to spend more time with Santana, but now she felt like she might start to belong somewhere.

Santana woke up a couple hours later and moped around until 7:30 before she got up to get ready for the party. She showered and did her makeup, then went to her closet to pick out something to wear. She wanted to look sexy. Mainly for Dani, but Santana always liked getting dolled up. She decided on a cream colored dress that had blue and black leopard print all over, a brown belt, and black heels. She felt good and knew she looked good.

Santana was straightening her hair when she heard a knock on her door. She looked at the clock and realized it was 9:15 and she wasn't quite ready. She ran into the living room to open the door. When she opened it, she couldn't help but look Dani up and down. She looked gorgeous.

"Wow you look great." Santana said trying to break the silence while she stared. When she looked up, she saw Dani was eyeing her too.

"You look amazing. That dress looks great on you."

"Thanks. Come in and have a seat. I'm doing last minute touches to my hair then we can go."

Dani sat down on Santana's couch and looked around the apartment. There were lots of pictures. Dani assumed most of them were friends from high school or family. "Do you need me to do anything while you get ready?" Dani asked.

"There is a bottle of champagne and vodka in the fridge if you don't mind sticking those in my bag."

Dani got up and walked to the fridge, and pulled out the two brown paper bag wrapped bottles, and put them in the large purse. Santana stepped out of the bathroom, and into the kitchen where Dani was. Dani handed Santana the purse and smiled.

"Thanks for inviting me."

"No problem. Ready?" Santana held out her hand. Dani was quick to grab the other girls hand.

"I am now." Dani beamed at Santana.

The smiled at each other for a brief moment before heading out of Santana's apartment, down the elevator, and out the front door hand in hand.

"I'm a little nervous." Dani said looking over at Santana.

"Why? You've met Rachel and Kurt, and they seem to like you." Santana countered.

"I know. I just want to make a good impression. I don't want to mess anything up." Dani said nervously, now looking down at her feet as they walked.

"I don't think you have anything to worry about. I mean, you've already made a good impression on me." That last comment made Dani look back up. Santana winked at her as they reached the building.

Santana let go of Dani's hand to open the large sliding door to the loft. Rachel squealed when she saw the two girls standing at the door. Santana immediately went up to her and hugged her. "Congratulations, Rachel. I knew you would get it."

"Thanks, Santana." She moved away from Santana and pulled Dani in a hug.

"Thanks for coming, Dani."

"Thanks for having me! Congrats on Funny Girl."

"Thank You. So let's get this party started."

"Where's Kurt?" Santana asked

Kurt appeared from behind his curtained off are juggling a speaker and cords.

"Right here bitches!" He shouted, causing the girls to bust out into a fit of laughter. It was apparent by all the yelling they had both started drinking.

"Well, we come bearing gifts." Santana said digging through her bad. Dani was quick to notice that Santana said "we", and she liked it.

"Here's some champagne, and here's some vodka." Santana said as she pulled the bottles out one by one.

Soon enough everyone was drinking. They sang and danced all night long. Dani and Santana would occasionally steal glances of each other and smile. A couple of hours later, everyone was pretty drunk. Dani and Santana sat in the middle of the living room floor across from each other, while Kurt and Rachel were in the kitchen, in what appeared to be a deep, drunken conversation.

Dani and Santana passed the nearly empty bottle back and forth for a bit, before Dani finished the last drop.

"I'm like, super drunk." Dani said hiccuping. Both girls laughed.

"Me too. So do you want to stay here or we can walk home? It's like 2 a.m."

"As comfy as the floor looks, I think we should walk home." Dani said laughing

The two said their goodbye's before stumbling out of the loft. Dani wrapped an arm around Santana's waist as they walked.

"I had a lot of fun with you tonight." Dani said grinning at Santana.

"You're just drunk." Santana said rolling her eyes and laughing.

"Santana! I'm serious. I don't know the last time I laughed so much. You're a lot of fun."

"More fun than Rhonda?" Santana laughed.

After a lot of laughing and tripping over one another, they made it to Santana's door.

"I really had a lot of fun tonight. Thanks for inviting me." Dani said shyly.

"It was my pleasure. You're a lot of fun, Dani."

"So, I was wondering if you wanted to grab lunch tomorrow before work?"

Santana raised an eyebrow, "Is Dani Williams asking me out on a date?"

"Yeah, I think she is." Dani smiled at Santana. "I'll meet you here a little before noon?"

"It's a date. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Okay. Goodnight"

"Goodnight, Dani."
