"Who do you think you are?" Julie snapped at Rachel as she pushed her dressing room door closed behind her.

"Um, excuse me? Can you knock, please?" Rachel growled, holding her shirt over herself. She had been in the middle of changing clothes when Julie burst into her dressing room.

"Don't play cute with me. What the Hell do you think you are doing?"

Rachel looked at the girl, then down to herself, then back up to her "Changing my clothes" she said in a very matter of fact tone.

"Stop trying to be cute!"

"I have no idea what you are looking for here, Jules!" Rachel snapped back, pulling her shirt on over her head and fiddling with the various ties and buttons as she tried to do them up.

"You know what I am talking about. You and Santana!" Jules' rage was building by the moment, her voice going higher in pitch with every word.

"That is none of your business" Rachel said with a shrug. She wouldn't let the girl intimidate her.

"It's all my business. You are fucking around with my woman!"

"First of all, she's not your woman. She broke up with you, remember? Secondly, not that it's your business, but we aren't fucking around, as you say." Rachel folded her arms now, her face firm as she stared at the other woman.

"She is mine. She is going to realize she made a mistake and come back to me. But you are blinding her and standing in her way." Julie stepped closer to Rachel, pointing and putting her finger in her face.

"No" Rachel said softly, very calmly, not wanting to get in a shouting match before the show "She is not coming back to you because she dumped you. She is not coming back to you because she is with me now. So you just need to get over it, get over yourself, and find someone else to be a raging bitch to."

"NO!" Julie slammed her fist against the top of Rachel's vanity. "She is mine, do you hear me! You are so jealous of me that you are trying to take everything I love. You are trying to get me kicked off the show, you are trying to slander my name as a bitch to the media, and you are trying to take my girlfriend!"

"My girlfriend!" Rachel spat back quickly "And you're delusional if you think I care about any of that other stuff. You're ruining your own name and on thin ice because of your attitude and temper. Am I waiting for the day you go over board and get kicked off the show so Holly can take your place and show the world what a true leading lady acts like? Hell yes I am. But if you think I am plotting to take you down you're even more self-centered than I thought. I am going to let you implode by yourself."

"I won't implode. The only thing that will take me away from this show is an evil little twit like you!"

"Look at yourself" Rachel motioned a hand the length of her body "You are attacking me for no reason! You're a fricken lunatic. You need help, Julie. Like actual help where you lay on a couch and talk about your past."

"How dare you speak to me in that tone!" Julie's eyes narrowed into a dark scowl.

Rachel shook her head, rolling her eyes a bit "Maybe you should take some time off and re-evaluate yourself. Now, excuse me, I need to go to makeup." She pushed past the other girl and headed for the door. She didn't get very far, barely a step outside before Julie was turning around, grabbing her arm and shoving her against the wall across from the door.

"Listen here, I will not be spoken to in such a manner by such an insignificant puke like you. I will not let someone like you take everything I have worked so hard for away so easily. I am not going down without a fight." Julie's breath was sour and Rachel turned her head and closed her eyes, trying to get away from the girl even if she was pinned to the wall. She was trying to drown out the fear and the pain that was coursing through her.

A few people had their heads sticking out of the dressing rooms around them, watching the two.

"You're hurting me" Rachel whispered quietly, her voice trembling as she tried to pull her arm out of Julie's grasp.

"You think this hurts? If you don't back down I will show you what real pain is." The words were literally hissed as Julie spoke them.

"Please" Rachel whimpered out, her eyes full of tears now but she tried not to let them fall "Just let me go. I don't want anything to do with you."

Julie's grip tightened and she used it to tug Rachel's arm, pulling her away from the wall before shoving her against it again. The thump she made caused her to hit her head, lose her breath, and a dull ache shot from where her broken rib was. She prayed it hadn't been re-injured. That would be too easy for Julie to get what she wanted, taking Rachel away from the show again, and get away with it. Why was no one stepping up to help her? She felt like she was going to pass out. She squeezed her eyes shut tightly and as the tears slid down her cheeks. She hoped she would black out so she didn't have to deal with this anymore. She prayed it was a dream.

"Hey!" A voice cut through the thickening silence that was taking over Rachel's head. She had been holding her breath and hadn't realized it. She had been sobbing as Julie stood over her, pushing her into the wall so tightly her entire back ached from where the bricks had dug into her in various spot. Then suddenly she was let go and her body crumbled onto the floor.

"Rachel are you alright?" Sam's voice was soft in her ear, her arms gentle around her friend's waist as she huddled next to her on the ground.

"My back hurts" Rachel mumbled softly, turning to wrap her arms around her friend and bury her face in her neck. She couldn't control the sobbing now.

"It's alright" Sam whispered softly, holding her and rubbing her back "I'm right here. I've got you."

"I don't know what happened" Rachel sobbed out softly, her head shaking as she trembled in Sam's arms "She just came at me in the dressing room. I tried to leave but she pushed me. I was so scared. I didn't know what to do."

"Shhhh" Sam stroked her hair and kissed the side of her head, rocking with her in her arms. "It's alright, she's not going to hurt you."

Rachel nodded her head quickly, clinging to her friend for dear life as she let all the fear that had surged through her body now release into tears.

"Is she alright?" A soft familiar voice broke in after a moment.

Sam nodded "I think so, just really startled by it all."

"It's alright Rach" Santana said as she knelt near the girls, her hand lying against her back gently.

"San?" Rachel lifted her head and her blurry, watery eyes focused on the girl. She smiled a little before sniffling and taking a breath "What are you doing here?"

"I came to wish you luck" Santana said with a smile as she caught Rachel's eyes. "I was on my way back here when I heard someone say Julie had you against the wall. I snapped."

"You?" Rachel sat up a bit now, blinking a few times to try and focus on what was going on around her. There was a crowd around her and she could hear yelling in the distance. "What happened?"

"I went to tell security that Jules' was shoving you" A soft voice spoke out in the crowd.

Rachel smiled when she saw the face. Anthony, one of the chorus members. "Thank you" She whispered.

"I was in makeup already but I came as soon as I heard" Sam said with a nod.

"I out ran the security team and took matters into my own hands" Santana mumbled.

Rachel perked an eyebrow at her girlfriend "You shouldn't have. I don't want you getting hurt or in trouble or anything."

"It's fine. It felt good to put that bitch in her place." Santana smirked and there were a few snickers around the circle.

"Santana, you hurting her is no better than her hurting me."

"All I did was pull her off you and slam her into the wall. She tried to swing at me but I dodged it and kept her pinned to the wall so the guards could take her out."

"You didn't hit her?" Rachel asked softly.

Santana gave a shake of her head, her fingers brushing some hair off Rachel's face "No."

Rachel nodded, giving her a smile as she crawled out of Sam's arms and wrapped herself around Santana tightly. She gave her a kiss on the neck and took a deep breath as her face buried once more into her shoulder "Thank you."

"Don't thank me" Santana whispered as her arms circled the girl and pulled her in close.

"Alright, alright break it up. The show must go on!" The director had come down to see what was going on, only to be greeted with his star being ushered out of the theater and the rest of his cast gathered around another of his stars. He glanced down to Rachel and put a hand on his hip "Baby girl are you going to be alright?"

Rachel nodded her head a little, wiping her eyes as she started to climb to her feet "I'm fine, sir. The show must go on." She gave a weak smile. She probably shouldn't do the play tonight, but she had missed enough of it already. She didn't want to have a reputation of missing shows for silly excuses.

The director clapped his hands and gave her a smile "That's my girl." He turned around and used his hands to shoo everyone "Go! Get dressed, get makeup, we have a play to put on people!" He scurried off down toward his office again, grabbing Holly on the way and giving her a quick pep talk about how he believed in her now that she had to suddenly fill in for Julie yet again.

"Are you sure?" Santana asked softly, brushing off her knees as she stood now too.

"I'm positive" She glanced at Sam and nodded "I've got Sam here with me, I can get through anything."

Sam smiled proudly, giving a playfully cocky nod "Damn right. You know I would have shoved Julie off myself if I hadn't been in makeup."

"Uh huh" Santana smirked.

Rachel laughed and gave her friend a hug "I know you would have."

Sam nodded at Rachel and gave her a hug "Come on, superstar, let's get this show on the road."

Rachel nodded "You go ahead and get dressed, I will be right behind you."

Sam slipped away with a smile before heading down to her dressing room.

Rachel paused and reached out to take Santana's hand, leaning up on her toes to give her a soft kiss against her lips "Thank you. I know you said I don't have to thank you, but I am. I don't know what would have happened had you not stepped up. She was pushing me so hard and kept shoving her weight into me. I thought I was going to break my ribs again."

"Hey" Santana lifted her chin with her fingertips, giving her a soft smile "It's my job. I've got to keep my unicorn in one piece."

Rachel smiled a little, shaking her head "You're too much."

"I'm just enough." Santana said with a laugh.

"True" Rachel leaned up and kissed her again, letting their lips linger for a long moment before pulling back. Her hand lingered in Santana's even as she started to walk away "I'll see you after the show?"

Santana nodded, giving her hand a squeeze before letting it go "I'll be here."

Rachel gave a little wave then wondered down toward makeup. She had to push the events of the night away and focus on the show now.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.

"Whoa there are a shit load of cops here" Santana said as she slipped into Rachel's dressing room after the show.

"I guess they are taking incident reports" Rachel said with a soft shrug as she wiped her face.

"Yeah they asked me what happened." Santana shrugged as she sat down near Rachel, her hand on her back.

"They asked me what happened, too." Rachel mumbled softly. "They just left here, actually."

"What did you tell them?" Santana perked an eyebrow.

"The truth. That I was in here getting ready, that Julie came in and started to harass me and threaten me. I tried to leave and that's when she turned violent and pushed me against the wall a few times. Told them the last thing I remember was my head hitting the bricks and feeling like I was going to pass out."

Santana nodded a bit, leaning in to kiss her cheek softly as her fingers ran through her hair "I'm sorry you have to put up with her."

"It's not your fault." Rachel whispered softly "She's crazy. I really think she needs help."

"You're telling me. When we were together she would be sitting there reading or something then look at me and start yelling at me and accusing me of things."

"Really?" Rachel perked an eyebrow.

Santana gave a little nod "I used to tell her to see a shrink but she would say some shit about her actions were justified or something."

Rachel nodded and looked back into the mirror. She sighed a little bit and started undoing her hair. She was quiet for a long time as she got out of her costume and into her regular self. She kept her eyes in the mirror, trying to talk to herself silently and remind herself not to cry. It wasn't her fault. She had done everything she could to keep Santana away, to not have her cheat on Julie. This was definitely not her fault.

"You alright?" Santana asked after a moment, having been watching Rachel watching herself.

Rachel looked over and nodded, giving a half smile "I just want to go home" She whispered softly.

"Understandable. Can I give you a ride?"

"I'd like that." Rachel whispered, standing now to pull on a jacket and pull her hair into a ponytail. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed. There she was. Simple little Rachel who loved singing and acting and never caused trouble.

"Ready?" Santana asked softly, reaching out her hand to the girl.

A nod and a smile was given as Rachel took her hand and they headed out of the dressing room and toward the car, more than ready to just get out of here and forget any of this happened.

That wasn't in the cards, though. As soon as they stepped outside they were bombarded with cameras and microphones, shouts from various directions asking about what had happened inside.

Rachel went wide eyed and glanced around a bit. She was nearly blinded by all of the flashes all around her.

"Is it true you stole Julie Nickel's girlfriend?"

"Did you beat her up and leave her for dead?"

"Were you attacked at your home?"

"Are you gunning for her spot?"

Rachel just shook her head a little bit, dipping her head and trying to push through to where Santana's car was waiting.

"Hey, back off you jerks! She's just trying to go home!" Santana barked, using one hand to shield Rachel and the other to shove people.

"Are you the cause of the fight?"

"Did you cheat on Julie with Rachel?"

"Did you upgrade to Rachel because you believed Julie is on the downfall and Rachel's stock is rising?"

"Oh come on, seriously?" Santana turned around now as Rachel dipped inside the car. She looked at everyone gathered around and shook her head "You guys are all idiots. Now if you don't move I will tell my driver to run you down, offering a thousand dollar bonus for every one of you that he hits." With that, she ducked in and shut the door.

When no one moved, Santana leaned forward and told her driver to step on the gas, revving the engine.

A few people jumped back at that and Santana nodded "Go. I don't care if you hit anyone, just get us out of here."

The driver nodded reluctantly but put the car in drive and started forward. Luckily people seemed smart enough to get out of the way and they were able to make it out and into traffic without anyone getting seriously injured.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.

"You should stay" Rachel mumbled from where she laid now in her bed. As soon as they had escaped the circle of cameras and gotten to her apartment, she had gone right to her bedroom. She had changed into just a shirt and some shorts and crawled into bed. She had definitely had enough of the world for one night.

"Are you sure?" Santana asked softly, sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Yeah, I'm sure" Rachel nodded slightly.

"I thought you just wanted to sleep?" Santana said with a shrug.

"I do, but that doesn't mean you can't join me." Rachel smiled.

A soft nod was seen from Santana's head and she stood up "Let me just tell my driver to go home, then."

Rachel nodded and adjusted on the bed now so she was propped up on some pillows. She watched Santana pull out her phone and dial her driver. She slipped out of her leather jacket and kicked off her boots as she spoke to him.

"Alright I hope you don't change your mind or I'll be walking" Santana laughed softly and pulled her earrings out now and set them next to Rachel's jewelry box on her dresser.

"I'm not going to change my mind" Rachel smiled softly, patting the bed for Santana to come join her.

"Good because I don't feel like walking. Those heels kicked my feet's ass." She laughed softly and opened a drawer, pulling out a shirt and shaking it out. She eyed it for a moment then looked over at Rachel "yeah, this is not gonna fit me."

"The big ones are in the bottom" Rachel pointed, giving a giggle "Although the thought of you squeezing into one of my little shirts is kind of hilarious."

"Not gonna happen" Santana pulled the shirt to her chest "Look at how small it is! This thing is like a bra to me. You are seriously like a child."

"Says the girl who was fondling me not too long ago." Rachel said with a soft laugh, folding her arms over her chest.

"A hot, legal, child-like woman. You're tiny, that's all I meant." Santana grinned over exaggeratedly ear to ear, laughing softly. She leaned down and pulled out a bigger shirt. She held it up to herself and after deciding it would be alright, slipped off her shirt, popped her bra open, and pulled on the other shirt before shimmying out of her jeans and moving over to the bed.

"You should have just gone naked if you were going to complain." Rachel said with a pout, huffing a bit. She glanced at Santana and the sight of her in her shirt made her break into a giggle and she turned to wrap her arms around Santana lightly.

"Well I didn't know naked was an option!" Santana said with a laugh, her arms snaking around Rachel and pulling her until she was lying against her slightly.

"It's an option" Rachel nodded, biting her lip as her hand slid across Santana's stomach and wrapped around her waist. She tugged a bit so Santana was on her side, the two girls now facing one another, their legs intertwined together.

"Is that so?" Santana smirked, licking her lips as she leaned in to kiss at Rachel very lightly.

Rachel just nodded, leaning up to catch her mouth in the soft kiss. Her eyes closed and her hand lifted to cup at her cheek, holding her there in the gentle kiss.

Santana nodded her head against the kiss, fingers grazing along her cheek and down over her neck before scooping against the back of her head and tangling in her hair.

A soft moan escaped Rachel's lips as her tongue pushed through her lips now and slowly started to explore Santana's mouth. Her hand gripping Santana's waist now dipped under the hem of the shirt she wore and slowly moved her fingertips over the tight abs she found there.

A shiver coursed through Santana and she gave a bite to Rachel's lower lip, smirking as she pulled away from the kiss slowly and opened her eyes to find Rachel's gaze on her "Oh so you were serious when you said I could be naked."

Rachel nodded slowly, licking her lips as she shifted now, bringing herself over Santana and sitting on her legs.

Santana returned the nod and sat up enough to let the shirt pass over her body as Rachel's small hands pulled at it until it was off. She smiled at the girl once the shirt was gone, her fingers touching at Rachel's legs where she straddled her. "Are you sure?"

Rachel nodded quickly, her stare into Santana's eyes was unwavering.

Santana licked her lips and moved her fingers along her thighs and to the bottom of the shirt the smaller woman wore. Just like her own had been, she lifted the material off Rachel's body and tossed it aside. "Is Sam home?" Santana whispered as her fingers danced now over Rachel's bare back.

Rachel shook her head, leaning forward now to press her chest to Santana's "She went out, she won't be home until late."

Santana's fingers moved forward now, dancing along Rachel's tiny ribs until her fingertips grazed the side of her small breasts.

Rachel bit her lip lightly, leaning more and more forward until she found Santana's mouth once more. Her eyes closed tightly and her tongue flickered out over her lips before diving inside, sweeping the taste of Santana's mouth onto her tongue again.

The kiss was easily returned, the pace slow and tender, but perfect for the two of them. They had been through so much that it was only right that they took their time now, to fully enjoy one another and appreciate what they had built together.

The kiss lasted several minutes without anything but their lips and tongues dancing together and their fingertips grazing up and down each other's body. There was a desire and need that was building but there was not urgency. It was as if they both agreed to take their time to enjoy one another fully.

Slowly Santana's arms slid around Rachel's back and she used her weight to turn her gently, placing Rachel onto her back and shifting over her body slowly and carefully.

Rachel let out a soft moan. The movement was so simple and yet she felt completely safe and taken care of in that moment. She trembled and her fingers dragged down Santana's back and gripped at her waist tightly.

Santana broke the kiss with a smile, glancing at the way Rachel's face looked in the moment before her lips dipped and she trailed a line of pecks down along her neck. She nipped against the skin every now and then as she made her way over her collarbone and over her chest carefully.

Rachel arched her back slightly, her eyes closing and her pulling in a deep breath. Her skin covered with goosebumps as Santana took in her body for the first time. It felt right. She trusted this woman. They had grown together and learned about one another and knowing that made this feel even better.

Santana's tongue slipped out over her skin, circling one of her breasts lightly and taking in the taste fully before her lips circled the nipple and pulled it into her mouth. A few soft sucks were given immediately before the tip of her tongue flickered back and forth over the perked flesh.

Another loud moan came from Rachel and her back lifted even more off the bed, her body crying out for more.

Santana took her time, lavishing Rachel's breasts with attention. Her lips sucked, her tongue flipped about, and her fingers pinched and tugged. Tiny groans lifted from her lips as she feasted on the body she had wanted for so long.

Rachel's hands moved over Santana's back, fingers digging in slightly as she pulled her touch along her skin. She craved more, she wanted all that Santana had to offer. She had waited so long and now she didn't want to hold back "Santana…" she moaned out softly.

Santana smiled, lifting her head to look at Rachel. The way she looked right now was so beautiful, she was sure she could stare at her forever. She touched another kiss between her breasts before moving back up her body and letting her mouth touch against Rachel's again.

Rachel wrapped a quick arm around Santana, fingers digging into her hair and holding here. Her other hand moved down Santana's back slowly, fingers taking in the dips and curves of her sculpted back before reaching the material of her panties. Fingers pushed under the waistband and cupped at her ass, giving a tight squeeze.

Santana laughed softly, her hips grinding down and pushing into Rachel's. She pulled back and looked down at the girl again "Someone is feisty."

"Someone is ready" Rachel whispered softly, biting her lip as she locked eyes with Santana. She gave a slow nod as her fingers worked now to push at Santana's panties, pushing them as low as she could get them.

Santana nodded her head a little bit, lifting her hips and working the material the rest the way off her legs before her hands came back and fingers looped into Rachel's panties as well. She didn't say anything, she just pulled and smiled when Rachel lifted her hips to allow the material to pass off her body.

With nothing between them now, Rachel's legs parted and she allowed Santana to settle a leg between hers. She bit down on her lip again, nodding her head as she felt Santana's thigh lay against her gently. She kept her eyes on Santana, watching her carefully as she settled in against her.

"Someone is wet" Santana whispered with a little smirk on her lips, letting her thigh now press and slide against Rachel's center to reinforce her point.

Rachel nodded, her back arching and hips lifting into the pressure "Mmm, very."

Santana smirked, leaning in to capture Rachel's mouth with hers again. She let her thigh press into Rachel once more before her hand landed against her stomach and slowly her fingers moved down over her hip.

Rachel's muscles flinched under her touch, her breath catching in her throat and she tried to hold the kiss even though she was having a hard time catching a deep breath. Her leg lifted a bit, her own thigh finding Santana's heat and pushing against it firmly.

Santana moaned out loudly, breaking the kiss and taking in a deep breath. Her fingers trembled against Rachel's body and she looked down at the girl with a smile, laughing very softly "Sneaky."

Rachel smirked, nodding her head and pushing her thigh into her once more. She licked her lips and moved her hand now, pushing it between them and before Santana could stop her, Rachel's fingers dipped between her folds, over the heated moisture. She licked her lips, letting out a deep breath as her fingers slid up and down through the slick need "Someone's soaked."

"Since the day I saw you" Santana mumbled, pushing her hips down in begging for more.

Rachel bit her bottom lip softly, looking up and finding Santana's gaze on her. She grinned very softly, nodding her head a little bit as her fingers now curled against her, pushing slowly inside Santana.

"Rachel" Santana moaned out softly, her hips pushing down and taking her fingers into her more deeply. She licked her lips softly, giving her a little smile as her hips moved against her.

Rachel smiled softly, her wrist working in a slow circle, pushing her fingers in and out at a steady easy rhythm. She bit her lip, watching the way Santana's face twisted in pleasure. It sent her stomach into a knot, a fire shooting between her legs and she moaned, lifting up to let her center hit against Santana's thigh once more.

Santana shivered again, this time at the need that Rachel was showing and the confidence with which she took what she wanted. It was a new side of her. She had always known Rachel to be out spoken and standing for her beliefs, but to see her so in charge right now was incredibly sexy.

"You're beautiful" She whispered as a hand lifted to Rachel's forehead, pushing her bangs out of her eyes. Her lips touched a soft kiss to her mouth as her other hand now dove between them and much like Rachel had done, her fingers found her heated desire and plunged into it eagerly.

Rachel's back lifted off the bed as a sweet moan left her lips. She sat up and wrapped her free arm around Santana's shoulders. She gave a soft smile as their foreheads came to rest together, their eyes locked within one another's "Faster" she said with a nod.

Santana didn't hesitate to fill the request and soon her fingers were pulling and plunging quickly though still skillfully curling and teasing into all the right spots within her.

Rachel had easily matched the pace of her own hand and soon their hips were coursing in time with the movements of their hands. They found an easy rhythm together, so effortless and seamless. It felt right, natural almost, and neither of them wanted it to end.

Finally Rachel had to close her eyes and her head moved, dipping to allow her lips to press into the curve of Santana's neck. Soft pecks here and there contrasted the way her hand and hips now clashed together with Santana's body.

Santana's head rolled back and her eyes closed. Her chest was heaving as her nerves prickled on end. She could feel the heat rising so quickly within her body. Everything she had waited for had come to this moment and it was more than she could have ever imagined it would be.

A bite was given to Santana's neck quickly followed by Rachel's tongue soothing over the skin. She didn't want to leave a mark after all. Finally her head rolled back too and her free arm dropped behind her, holding herself up and using the leverage to push and grind her hips into Santana's hand even more.

"Oh my god" Rachel mumbled out, her tongue tracing her lips slowly as her head came forward and her eyes opened again. She smiled softly at the sight of Santana's naked body on top of her, the two of them moving with such harmony together "You're so sexy, San." She whispered, giving the girl a smirk as she paused briefly to add a third finger.

The addition caused Santana's body to pause a moment. She let out a drawn out grunt that curled into a high pitched moan at the end before her hips rolled against Rachel's fingers again. She pulled in a deep breath and let out a few short sighs as she moved quickly again "Just like that, Rachel, oh my god."

Rachel nodded, her wrist continuing the movements so fiercely now she was nearly pounding her knuckles against Santana with every new thrust of her hand.

Santana bit hard on her bottom lip and her body came forward a bit. She dropped a hand to the mattress to hold herself up as she continued to swirl her hips into Rachel's fingers. She held her body over Rachel's, her breasts brushing up and down against her with every new jerk of her body.

"I'm so close" Santana panted out now, sweat forming on her skin. Her head dropped and she laid it against Rachel's shoulder. A jolt shot through her body and it sent a shiver from the top of her neck all the way to her toes. It felt as if a knot had tied itself around her insides and with every curl of Rachel's fingers it was unraveling little by little.

An abrupt and sharp curling of Rachel's fingers upward and Santana cried out at the top of her lungs. Her tiny yet skilled fingers plunged into the sweetest of spots and there was no holding back. Santana's thighs trembled and the gut wrenching knot in her stomach was gone as her release took over her body in a way she wasn't sure she had ever experienced before.

Rachel let out a little giggle and kept her fingers working, though not as sharply, letting Santana ride it out without being over whelmed so she could fully enjoy it. A soft moan was let off near Santana's ear and she turned her head to kiss her softly against her collarbone.

Santana's hand gripped the sheet so tightly her knuckles had gone white. Her body had been frozen with pleasure as fireworks tingled within her from head to toe. She hadn't even realized she had been holding her breath until several moments later when she finally pulled in a deep gasp of air. She filled her lungs with air then let out a soft laugh, shaking her head as she started to gain control of herself again.

Rachel's hand finally paused within her, a smile on her lips as Santana lifted her head and their eyes met. "You soaked me" She whispered softly, nibbling at her lower lip as she stared into Santana's deep brown eyes which were now glazed over with a cloud of pleasure.

Santana just smiled, nodding her head. She hadn't found words yet but she didn't need them. She knew Rachel could tell just what she had done to her. She swallowed more air then let her head drop again, focusing on regulating her breathing for a few long moments.

After finally finding strength again, her head lifted and she found Rachel still staring at her. "Damn" was all she could manage to whisper, licking her lips before leaning in to press them to Rachel's.

Rachel let out another soft laugh against the kiss, now finally letting her fingers slide from within her. Slowly she brought her hand up and as the kiss broke, she ran her fingertips over Santana's lips gently.

Santana let out a soft moan then opened her lips just enough to allow Rachel's fingers to dip inside her mouth, tasting what the woman had done to her. As Rachel's fingers pushed past her lips, her own fingers still within Rachel gave a firm and deep thrust that jolted Rachel's entire body against the bed.

"Fuck, Santana!" Rachel groaned out loudly, her head rolling back and her lips parting to pull in a deep breath of air. She had forgotten for a moment that Santana was still buried deep within her. The movements had stopped as soon as Santana had frozen, but her fingers never left her and with that single jolt she felt her thighs tremble.

Santana moaned around Rachel's fingers before pulling back and letting them slide from her lips. She then crashed her lips into her mouth, letting her tongue dart out wildly to share the taste of herself with Rachel as her fingers gave another firm thrust.

Rachel bit Santana's lip at the second thrust, but did not break the kiss. Her hips lifted and she begged for more as she moaned into her mouth.

Santana gave her more. Another fierce thrust, then another, then once more. Each thrust came faster and harder and soon the bed was shifting with them every time Santana's fingers powered into Rachel.

Rachel's head rolled back and she dropped to the bed, laying out flat as her hand lifted and she gripped the headboard just above her. "Yes" She panted, nodding her head as another moan took over "More."

With each new thrust, Santana's thumb now snaked out and found her clit. Each push within her was partnered with a fierce teasing of Rachel's excited clit trapped under the pad of her thumb. Back and forth, up and down, left and right. Every thrust brought a new direction of teasing and pleasing to the nerves.

Rachel bent a leg and her toes dug into the sheets. Her hips lifted and begged for more. Her hand gripped against the headboard so firmly she thought she might splinter the wood.

Santana's mouth now dipped and swept a nipple between her lips. Her tongue mimicked the motions of her thumb. Back and forth, up and down, left to right. Every pounding thrust of her hand and every move of her thumb now translated to the assault Rachel's nipple would receive.

A gasp then a drawn out, high pitched moan was heard as Rachel's hips dropped and then lifted again. They fell once more and her thighs trembled before they bucked back up and pressed into the hand. Then they dropped away once more and her head shook as her body stilled, her nerves overwhelmed with pleasure. "Stop…oh my god, Santana. I can't take any more."

Santana paused her movements, lifted her head and her eyes focused on Rachel. She could see her brow creased and her mouth parted slightly as she panted. She felt her fingers trapped inside as Rachel throbbed around her, clenching tighter and tighter by the moment.

Neither one of them moved for what felt like forever. Finally Rachel was able to draw in a proper breath and let out a soft laugh. Her hips trembled as her body relaxed and the throbbing that coursed through her veins subsided, her walls finally releasing Santana's fingers.

Santana licked her lips slowly, a smirk spreading over her features as she looked at the girl below her. She took in the way she looked, the subtle little smile on her lips and how even though she was sweating she still looked flawless. As much as she thought she could stare at Rachel forever before, that multiplied in that very moment as she soaked in everything that Rachel Berry was.

Rachel's eyes finally came open and when she saw Santana watching her, she blushed and shook her head "Don't."

"What?" Santana whispered, the grin on her lips spreading wider.

"You're watching me, that's so creepy."

"That is not creepy, it's intimate. Besides you look really sexy when you come."

"I hate that word" Rachel confessed with a laugh, lifting her hand now to Santana's cheek, pulling her down for a kiss.

"I love that word" Santana replied with a smirk once the kiss ended.

"You would." Rachel rolled her eyes, but smiled. Her smile looked brand new. It was a smile that could melt ice bergs and cure cancer, Santana was sure of it.

"I love making you do it even more" Santana whispered "So if you let me do that to you, like, all the time I won't say come."

"Ugh, deal" Rachel said, closing her eyes with a soft smile "Although if it's like what just happened every time, I might not be able to handle it. I've never…you know…"

"Came?"

"Yes" Rachel sighed, laughing softly as her head dropped and her eyes closed again "I've never, so hard in my life. What did you do to me?"

Santana shook her head, laughing as her lips touched a kiss to her nose "That was nothing. I haven't even used my tongue yet. Now that will blow your mind."

Rachel opened her eyes, her eyelids heavy and her gaze an almost dreamy one as she looked up at Santana "Call me crazy but I totally believe you."

"Good, you should." Santana kissed her once more then slowly moving from above her to settle herself next to her on the bed. She let out a sigh as she settled, all of her muscles relaxing at once. She was exhausted, to say the least. Rachel had definitely known what she was doing, not that she had doubted as much. "You weren't too shabby yourself, you know?"

"You think? I'm pretty sure I have to change my sheets now. Did you know you could do that?"

"Well, yeah" Santana said with a roll of her eyes, laughing lightly "But only I've ever been able to make myself. No one else has ever gotten me to do that."

"Really" Rachel rolled to her side now, sliding her arm across Santana's stomach loosely.

Santana gave a little nod, lifting a hand to brush hair away from Rachel's face "Seriously."

A tiny blush crept to Rachel's cheeks and she hid her face against Santana's arm.

Santana let out a soft laugh and laid her hand against her hair, fingers stroking against the long strands slowly as the two girls settled against each other. A deep breath was taken and a sigh released as Santana felt herself completely comfortable and relaxed. Her body was warm from head to toe and she couldn't remember the last time she felt this satisfied.

"Hey Santana?" Rachel broke the silence after a few minutes.

Santana opened her eyes and looked down at her with a smile "I thought you had fallen asleep."

"Almost" Rachel smiled, turning her head to kiss against Santana's arm "I just wanted to say me too."

Santana perked an eyebrow, staring at the top of Rachel's head. She had no idea what she was talking about and she laughed and shook her head "You too what?"

Rachel smiled very shyly against Santana's arm, giving her a soft squeeze before she shifted her head to look up at her "Since the day I saw you."

Santana chuckled very lightly and gave her head a bit of a shake "I so knew it."

Rachel rolled her eyes and gave Santana's side a playful poke "Whatever. Just don't let it go to your head."

"It will" Santana said with a nod, still chuckling a bit. She lifted her head and placed a kiss to Rachel's forehead, her smiling holding as her tone dropped to a whisper "You are worth waiting for."

Rachel bit her lip softly, nodding as her head came to rest against Santana and her eyes closed gently "So are you."
