Pezberry Week Day 3: Camping Trip
Rachel tags along with her brother Noah, when he goes on his annual camping trip with his best friend Santana. A little OOC for all three.
"Rach! Are you ready?!" Noah yelled up the stairs of the house he shared with her and their friend Quinn.
"She's almost ready," Quinn said as she descended the steps. "I had to repack her things, it looked like she was going to New York for a week rather than the woods for two days," the blonde added with a chuckle as she ran her fingers through Noah's Mohawk. He shook his head to end the unwanted touch just as his sister entered the living room.
"Oh, thank God! What took you so long? This is why I don't go places overnight with you," Noah said as he stood from his position on the couch and stretched.
Rachel rolled her eyes, "Just put the stuff in the truck, Noah."
"Where's your friend?"
"Who? Santana? She really is just a friend, Rach. That's who I was hanging out with whenever I wasn't at home."
"Yeah, you've hung out with girls before. I know how that usually ends up."
"I mean it. She's like my sister, I don't think about her like that. Besides, she's a lesbian," Noah responded with a shrug and smirk.
"Well then, I can't wait to meet this girl."
"Yo, San!" The Latina looked up from her sketchbook to see her best friend and a small, beautiful brunette walking towards the campsite. "Whoa, you already set everything up!"
"Noah, you're really loud and yes, I did. You were late and you know I don't like setting up close to sunset." Two tents had already been set up as well as a pile of firewood that sat beside the long rock Santana was seated on. The fire pit had a pile of wood in it waiting for someone to light it. A cooler was sitting a few feet from the fire pit.
"Santana, this is my sister Rachel. Rachel, this is my best friend Santana."
The brunette shook the Latina's hand and said, "So you're the one that's been stealing my brother from me?" in lieu of a greeting.
"Yeah, I guess. What made you take Puck up on his offer to bring you camping?"
"I honestly have no idea. Why do you call him Puck?"
"Ahem!" the two girls turned to Noah who had taken a seat beside Santana. "Let's just say there was an incident during an ice hockey game."
Santana laughed at the memory of Noah crying after being hit by a flying hockey puck and a stick in the groin. "It was unfortunate, but yet hilarious."
"Shut up. What food do you have with you?"
"Let's see…" the siblings listened as the Latina rattled of a list of sandwiches and fruit cups for them to eat. Rachel smiled at the fact that Santana had packed vegan options for her to eat.
"It's getting late, If we go to bed early, we can get up, a take a little hike, and maybe stop by the river for a little while."
"Yeah that sounds good. Rach would you rather have me set up the other tent or would you be cool with sharing with San?"
"If Santana doesn't mind I can share with her," Rachel answered with a smile in the Latina's direction. Santana shrugged and opened the tent for Rachel to enter.
"Sweet dreams ladies."
"Aah!"
"Rachel, they're just mosquitos! That's why you have you have bug repellent!"
"Noah, leave her alone. Rachel, sweetie! The bug spray and clip work so I need you to stop swatting at them. They won't bite you, okay?"
"Fine," Rachel huffed and followed behind Santana as the raven-haired woman led them up the hiking trail.
"What is that?!" the tiny brunette looked ready to scream when, something brushed past her leg. She was standing knee deep in the river, while Santana and Noah splashed each other with water a few feet away.
"Rachel!"
"Stop whining Puck. I assure you Rachel, there are only harmless fish and the occasional turtle in this river. Just chill out or I will have to cool you off!" the Latina splashed the girl with water.
"Santana!"
"Well, this has been an interesting weekend," Santana sighed as the three campers walked back to their cars.
"Yeah, I don't think I have ever heard Rachel scream that much," Noah laughed as Rachel shoved him.
"Must you bee so mean?"
"You sound like San. But the point is I actually got to have fun with my sister and my best friend."
"This was pretty awesome, though camping is definitely not my thing," Rachel added grinning at the smile she received from Santana."
"Well, maybe you would be more interested in spending a night in the city with me?" Santana's smile turned into a hopeful grin as she opened her car door.
"Maybe."
