Hey! Sorry it's taken me forever to update, and I left it off at such a cliffhanger, so many apologies for that. I've been kind of busy because of school and... other things (lets just say they are incredibly similar to the situation in this fanfic...)

Enjoy!

Santana couldn't believe what was happening.

She could feel Zoe's soft hand on her cheek as her warm lips pressed against hers, a feeling so incredible that Santana had never even imagined could exist. Santana began to make the kiss deeper, and more passionate, and before she knew it she didn't even feel cold anymore. All she could feel was the explosions of lust coming from the most incredible kiss she had ever experienced.

Suddenly, Zoe pulled away, and as she did, Santana could feel something from her heart being wrenched away with her. She looked at Zoe, confused. Zoe looked embarrassed.

"What's wrong?" Santana muttered.

Zoe closed her eyes and laughed, her cheeks flushed. "The pizza man is here."

Santana turned her head to see the delivery guy standing in shock, his eyes wide open. He looked as if he was about to drop the pizza box into the small amount of snow that had collected on the ground. His short, dark mohawk had collected a small amount of snow as well.

Santana felt her stomach drop.

"Puck?!" Santana exclaimed. She quickly stood up from the step. "What are you doing here?"

Santana realized how stupid of a question that was. Memories of Puck talking about his new job at the local pizza place came flooding back into her brain. Santana closed her eyes, her heart racing. Now, Puck knew everything.

"I... I work at the pizza place now. Remember?" he said.

Santana walked over to him slowly. "Puck... You can't tell anyone. Please." Her voice began to waver and she could feel tears starting to well up in her eyes. "I don't know what would happen if anyone else found out."

"Don't even worry about it, Santana. It's cool," Puck said. "It's not a big deal at all." He handed her the pizza. "Um... that's going to be $10.50. I would totally give it to you on the house, but my boss would totally slaughter me."

Santana smiled. "Thanks," she said, digging out the money from her pocket and handing it to them. Smiling, Puck began to turn and walk away, but something stopped him.

"Santana," he said, turning around again. "Does... does anyone else know?"

She nodded curtly. "Yeah. Rachel."

Puck raised an eyebrow. "You told Rachel?"

Santana rolled her eyes. "I know, right? But... she's my friend."

Puck's eyes narrowed. "So is Brittany. And Quinn."

Santana shook her head. "Yeah, but I don't think you realize how big of a disaster it would be if they knew..."

"No," said Puck. "It would be a disaster if you told anyone outside the Glee club."

Santana tilted her head in confusion. "What are you saying?"

Puck sighed. "Look, Santana. You can't keep this secret forever, and neither can I, or Rachel, or even Zoe. I know people at our school can be complete assholes. But all of us in Glee club are your friends. We're people you can trust. And if you keep secrets for too long from your friends, it can make you sick. I'm not saying you should tell the whole world. I'm just saying you should know that you can tell us anything, and we'll be there for your, because I'm starting to think that all of us in Glee are the only ones at that messed up school with our heads screwed on the right way."

Santana let out a breath of amazement and smiled. "Wow, Puck, I-I didn't know you had that kind of advice in you."

Puck shrugged. "I didn't either." He smiled. "Do you think I could be, like, the Dalai Sheep or something?"

Santana stifled laughed. "I think you mean the Dalai Lama..."

"Llama. Sheep. Same thing, Santana."

She shook her head, giggling. "Well... thanks for the pizza. And the advice."

"Hey, don't mention it. I better be getting back. See ya." He turned and walked away, getting into his delivery car and driving off.

Santana looked back at Zoe, her heart speeding up when she did. Her snow-dusted dark blue hair shone in the dim, cloudy light, and her dark eyeliner made her green eyes burst with color. She walked back the short distance and sat down, sighing as she did. She put down the pizza box next to her and turned back to Zoe.

"Did you hear what he said?" Santana asked. Zoe nodded slightly. There was a long pause before anyone said anything.

"He's right, you know," said Zoe.

Santana looked at her. "What?"

"About secrets. If you keep them too long, they can destroy you. Drive you insane."

Santana looked down. "Yeah," she said. "I know."


Sorry for the bad ending. Hope you like it!
