A/N- All I will say is that I found it really difficult to write this chapter as I had no idea what to do between Britt and San... But hopefully, I did justice by them! X
Chapter 6
From: Santana at 16:30
I feel so ashamed for what I've done. I don't have any excuses. I did what I did. I take full responsibility for myself and my actions. I'm so sorry it happened and that I hurt you.
From: Quinn at 17:00
Britt, where are you, you're not at home. Dad is worried sick. Please come home, I hate what I did to you today, please call me xxx
From: Quinn at 17:15
I promise I won't come anywhere near you, just please come back home, you don't even know any places here, I need to know that you're safe x
"Hello Puck, any luck?''
"Hi, Becky, it's me Quinn, is my sister with you?''
"No daddy, she hasn't come home yet and no one else has seen her".
...
It was a little after 9pm when the front door had been slammed shut. Quinn was on the phone, "Hey Puck, I'll call you back, she's home, thanks for all the help... "Brittany, where have you been, I've been worried sick''.
Brittany just laughed, a little sarcastically... "Why do you care, like seriously, you couldn't give a damn about anyone".
Quinn started crying, holding onto Brittany's shoulders, "You're my sister, I've always had your back, how could you think such a thing?''
"Well it's true...Your mum stole my dad, I lost my mum and yet yours is still alive...not to mention the fact that OUR dad only cares about you...do you know how hard it is for me to live my life, being haunted everyday by the man who we call our father...he drove my mum to her death because he chose yours instead".
"Britt, we have spoken about this before, you cannot blame me for our father's mistakes, I'm the innocent one here, and I've done nothing but be there for you since your mother's death."
Brittany pushes Quinn's arms away from her... "Yeah well sometimes it feels like I'm just a nuisance to you and dad, that I shouldn't be in this picture, I mean that is why we moved here in the first place right, cause your mum didn't want me so she gave our dad an ultimatum to choose me or her"
"Well what does that say Britt, that he does love you, he chose you over my mum and I for one am glad because you're the most amazing sister and I know that sometimes I can be a bit over-protective but it's only because I made a promise to our dad to keep you away from anything bad...Quinn pauses for a second before continuing, "I'm sorry for what Santana did and that I couldn't put a stop to it''.
Brittany froze at the mention of her name and made her way into the kitchen. "She...erm she texted me". "She did what, the nerve of that bitch, I swear when..."
"No listen Quinn, don't you think you've caused enough, the damage has been done, and it's something that I will just have to live and cope with, just like my mum's suicide''.
"But Britt... "No if's and buts', I just want to forget about it, sometimes it's the best thing to do''. And with that, Brittany made her way upstairs leaving Quinn to digest everything that had just happened today.
...
McKinley school was still buzzing from yesterday's events. Rumours were quickly all over the internet about the infamous Santana-Quinn debacle. It was on everyone's lips.
At the choir room, the glee regulars were all there apart from Quinn, Brittany and Santana. "Does anyone know whether Brittany went home yesterday?'' Rachel asked.
"Yeah Quinn told me she came a little after 9pm" Puck explained.
Before anything else could be said, Mr Schuester walked in with the three cheerio's. Santana went to sit down in her usual spot and could see everyone staring at her. She had to admit that it hurt, having her friends stare at her with such venom. And she couldn't really blame them after what she blurted out yesterday.
"Right, I know that after yesterday's events, we are now bound to have some tension between a few guys , but remember we are a Glee club, we are supposed to set an example that being here gives us all a great feeling, so please no more fights, let's just all get along''.
"Oh and Quinn here will be singing a song for us now, so let us all support her as this will be her first time singing in front of us". Mr Schuester concluded.
"Thank you, it's dedicated to my wonderful sister, I just want her to know that I'll always love her and that I'm sorry for everything. She's the best, and I'm hoping that I can let her know that via this song''. Brittany was now sat down next to Puck eagerly waiting; she loved it when someone did a grand gesture on her behalf.
Sister, we've been there through life's sorrow and pain
but together we have always endured the strain
We've argued and bickered and made each other mad
but if you weren't my sister, life would be so sad
We've cried till we laughed and laughed till we cried
Sometimes for no reason we didn't even know why
When we're not together our bond is just as strong
because we are sisters we know when something is wrong
We've whispered our deepest secrets only sisters could share
I love my sister dearly because she really cares
So whether we are together or we are far apart
Brittany, you're my sister, my friend and forever in my heart.
After Quinn blasted out the last line with such passion, Brittany jumped up from her seat to give her a massive hug. The room was ecstatic, clapping with such joy, Kurt having to brush a few tears away from his eyes. "I think I speak for all the glee club when I say that was fucking amazing". Puck shouted, receiving an approving nod from everyone else.
Oh so she gets to sing to her, how the fuck do I get her to forgive me, help me lord...Santana thought.
...
After glee finished, Quinn left Brittany to spend some time with Puck. Brittany insisted that she came with her to maths but her sister obviously had better plans. She didn't want to go to maths by herself as she knew Santana would be there.
When Brittany went inside the classroom, she did her level best to not look at the brunette's way. She was angry with her, she was hurt, she felt that Santana had exposed her in so many different ways and it killed her inside.
Santana herself was feeling agitated now that Brittany was in the room. She was desperate to fix things, to just have some sort of conversation with her. She wanted to make things better, just like Quinn managed to do, but knew that deep down, she had to work a lot harder as she did take Brittany's virginity away.
While the class went on, Santana twice tried to speak to Brittany but both times she would just stare and fidget with her fingernails. The blonde was obviously feeling the pressure of the situation. She even passed her a couple notes but almost immediately, Brittany would scrunch them up and go throw it in the bin.
This is going to be so hard...Santana thought.
Before the lesson was about to finish, Santana decided to send a text, hoping that this would get Brittany's attention.
Give me one chance to explain everything, that's all I ask. Meet me in 20 minutes, by the cheerio's changing room. (Santana)
...
Santana waited patiently, even throwing out a few of the cheerio's, she needed the conversation to be private, it's bad enough that the whole school were hating on her already. She paced herself up and down, up and down before a tall figure came walking in.
"Brittany, thank you so much for coming, I..."
"Why Santana, why was it so hard for you to tell me the truth, I asked you, not once but twice, you even promised me...all you had to do was be honest''.
"I know that and I am so sorry, but I panicked...when you said you don't remember the night before, I couldn't bring myself to tell you, all I know is that I was never going to say anything until Quinn pushed me...I know you might think I'm making excuses but..."
"But what...?''
"But even though my plan was to always seduce you just to get back at Quinn, that wasn't 100% the reason why I fucked you...I erm...I'm attracted to you so I thought I could get my revenge on Quinn and satisfy my needs at the same time".
Brittany scoffs and folds her arms... "Just like my sister, always about what you want isn't it...but you know what, you wanna know what really hurt me?" Santana nods her head sideways so the blonde continues.
"It's not the fact that you used me nor how you and Quinn made such a big commotion over it yesterday...it's how I always wanted sex to be with the person I love, not just some silly one night stand, and you took that away from me, for your benefit...
"I'm sorry..."
"No let me finish, that morning, when I went home and Quinn questioned me, after a bit, I went into the showers and I felt something different about me...then I started getting these crazy images of you on me and at first I refused to believe that something happened between us, that you would've said if it did, but It kept on niggling me and I guess if I'm being honest, a part of me deep down knew that yeah something did happen, I just didn't want to believe it"
Santana made her way over to Brittany, both girls crying. "I know that I could never ever take back what I did and I would understand it if you never ever wanted to speak to me again but please if you have it in your heart somewhere to forgive me...not now of course, then I'll do everything to regain your trust back."
"Santana, it's not that easy, trusting you is one thing, and maybe I could sometime again in the future, but forgiving...I don't know, I don't think I can''.
"Okay how about, we take baby steps, just a simple Hi and Bye thing or we only speak during glee and cheerio's, that's fine...it doesn't matter, just as long as you're talking to me then hopefully we can fix our friendship, they say good things always take the most time to build right, so how about it?''
Brittany just eyes Santana, almost feeling the sincerity behind those words that the brunette actually wants to make amends, even if it means taking things slowly.
"Santana, I won't lie, nobody has ever hurt me the way you have done apart from my dad, but I'm willing to stick by him as I believe everyone deserves a second shot so maybe you deserve one too...but I'm warning you, no funny business''.
Santana managed to conjure up a smile... "Funny business?''
"Yeah, no trying to flirt with me, or anything...I know you said you're attracted to me and well since you did take my virginity away, I suppose I should give you a chance but like I said, I'm into guys, I need you to understand that, okay?''
Santana didn't know what to answer. She wanted to be Brittany's friend but every time she went near the girl; she had to overcome this massive urge to kiss her. But I guess, right now, none of that matters. Brittany is giving her a second chance, talking to her and has agreed to take things slow, so who knows what might happen from here.
"Yeah of course, definitely''.
Brittany left the room saying goodbye and Santana feeling like shit in the morning was now excited at the prospect of Brittany being on good terms with her again.
A/N- Review and let me know people. What do you make of Brittany giving Santana a second chance, what do you make of them being friends again, of them taking baby steps with each other? Will Brittany forgive her in time? Is it possible that they might be something more as the month's go by? Hit the review button :D x
