As Santana drove Brittany kept looking at her and then out the window. The music played low but both girls stayed quite. It wasn't awkward or tense but more like that they thought it was a dream since both of them had wanting this for so long.
Finally Santana broke the silence. "How is it I'm driving, yet I have no idea where we're going?"
"You wouldn't let me drive your precious car, and just trust me. It's going to be your next left by the way." This time Brittany didn't bother to look at her but kept her eyes fixed on looking out the window.
"Something wrong?" Brittany looked away from the window and smiled at Santana, shaking her head no.
Ten minutes later they were still driving and the only thing that seemed to be around was trees. Lots and lots of trees. "Where are we going, come on tell me…please?"
"Turn right." Santana did and came face to face with a large carnival. An instant smile appeared on her face.
"You remembered I love carnivals? Where'd you find this place?" She parked the car and the girls got out and walked towards the ticket booth. Before Santana could get her wallet out Brittany bought enough tickets for them to ride everything once and then the ones they liked again.
The blonde smiled, "We both love carnivals and I just came across it one day when my dad was taking a detour on our drive up."
A little while later the girls were walking around eating cotton candy and joking around when Santana stopped in front of a game. She handed Brittany her cotton candy and handed the guy working the game five dollars. "What are you doing this game is a rip off." Brittany told her, as she watched Santana pick up the gun in front of her and go to shoot out the star on the piece of paper.
The brunette rolled her eyes. "What does it look like, I'm winning you that big green monkey."
"This is my date I'm suppose to win you something though," Just as Brittan finished her sentence Santana started to shoot the gun. A minute later the guy checked the piece of paper at the other end of the line and looked shocked. Showing the girls the paper, Santana smiled and asked for the green monkey.
Brittany's face was still in shock. "How did you, how did you do that?" She stuttered as Santana handed her the monkey and took back her cotton candy. "No you keep him, you won him."
"I won him for you so here ya go." There was a long pause. "Aren't you going to name him"
"Huh?" Brittany snapped out of the daze she had been in. "Oh well I think you should while I go over there and win you a Scooby Doo, besides I don't know what to name him."
Santana shook her head and playfully rolled her eyes. "O.J. name him O.J."
"What is he a murderer or something." She joked.
"No, just O.J. since you love orange juice so much, just shh okay. I named him since you told me too so deal with it." The taller girl stuck her tongue out.
After Brittany tried twice, and finally won the Scooby Doo, the girls walked over to the ferris wheel and gave their tickets to the guy operating it, and set the monkey and Scooby Doo next to him so no one would take them.
As they got on they both stayed silent, Brittany took Santana's hand in hers. "Your hand is cold babe."
"So is yours."
Grinning Brittany took both their hands and put them in her pocket. This caused Santana to giggle a little. "What? Your hand is cold and so is mine so I put them in there to warm up, and I didn't want to let go of yours."
As the ferris wheel went around the girls relaxed and enjoyed the view of the lights as the rest of the carnival lit up. "San?"
"Yeah."
"Whatcha thinking about?"
Santana thought for a second. "These lights are beautiful at night and I'm having an amazing time. What about you?"
Brittany looked into Santana's eyes. "That I'm having an awesome time, even though I don't normally do dates, I'd do one anytime with you."
"You're cute, a dork but a cute dork at least."
Santana heard Brittany say something under her breathe but didn't know what. "What'd you say?"
"Hmm, me, nothing, and you're the dork." She smiled.
Later that night the girls were laying on the dock looking up at the stars as the moon cast a glow over the water.
"I love watching the moon, There were nights when I'd go on the balcony or down to the beach just to watch it. I'd always wonder if you were watching it to and it made me feel closer to you, and as though we were in the same place at the exact same time even though we weren't." Came Santana's soft whisper, her blushing hidden by the darkness.
Nothing was said for awhile. "For the record, every time I came up here or sat by a dock I thought of you. Wondered what you were up to and how you were, and then I'd watch the stars and hope that you were okay."
The girls smiled at each other before Santana leaned in and kissed Brittany softly. "I think we should try and get some sleep, how's the tent sound for old times sake?"
Brittany smiled. "Good, as long I get to hold you."
"You better, especially since it's kind of cold out."
