It had officially been one day since I had last seen Santana at the club. I didn't think she would have cared but she did and that means I can still win her back if I try extra hard so I've decided that today I will put my plan into action. Rachel said she would help me out with the little things, I was glad I had her. I don't think I would be able to put all this together if she wasn't going to help me.

I made my way to Santana's door knocking on it waiting there very anxiously. My hands started to sweat and I could feel my heart rate picking up. My mind was racing into a whole bunch of thoughts, bad thoughts. If Santana wouldn't like it, if after all this she wouldn't even give me another chance, if she couldn't stand to look at me anymore. What if she saw how pathetic I actually am after the club and decided she wants nothing to do with me anymore. I was starting to panic, everything was running though my head. I turned away from the door trying to recollect my thoughts.

"Brittany?" I heard from behind me. I spun around and saw Santana standing there staring at me. I was right, this was a bad idea. I was so collected in my thoughts I didn't even hear the door open.

"Hi," I said weakly.

"What are you doing here?" Her voice was calm but I could tell she didn't really want to talk to me at the moment and that caused my heart to cringe in pain.

"I...," She was looking at me with question. I had to be a big girl and give this a try. "I wanted to talk you somewhere, please, if you'll let me. Please come with me, I need to show you something," I said, I could feel the water start to build in my eyes but I held them back.

"I don't know, I was...," she had to come with me, I need her.

"Please. Please just come and if you don't like it then you can leave and you don't have to talk to me anymore and I'll leave you alone, just please come. Please just give me a chance," I couldn't loose her.

"Ok," she said quietly.

"Thanks," I say.

I felt my whole body just sigh in relief. At least I would get a chance, now I just had to make that chance count. I loved Santana, more then anything in the world and I couldn't loose her. Spending a week away from her was hard enough, I couldn't do that forever. I smiled in relief and thank god she smiled back at me. I felt my heart do a flip just from seeing her smile, I loved making her smile, she had such a pretty face and when I make her smile that's the best feeling in the world.

We started walking together, this felt like the first time we had talked after I decided to give her a chance when she hit me with the paint ball gun, expect this time she was pissed at me. We walked in silence for most of the trip until I grew frustrated by it. We were Santana and Brittany, there shouldn't be awkward moments between us. We should always be able to talk about everything, that's how it's supposed to be.

"Thanks, for talking care of me the other night," I said in a smaller voice then I had hopped.

"It was no problem, are you feeling better?" She asked me.

"Yeah, a lot thanks," I tell her.

"That's good," This conversation really wasn't going anywhere so I stopped talking all together. I didn't want to force anything, and if Santana didn't feel like talking to me then I'd just have to live with that even if it killed me inside.

As we got closer to the place I was talking her I noticed a change in her expression. She was reading the words on the place and then she looked at me with curiosity. I couldn't tell if she liked the idea or just thought it was stupid. I really hoped she was going to like it, I was shaking inside.

"You're talking me to the zoo?" She asked.

"Is that ok?" I asked quietly, I felt like if I spoke to loudly something would go wrong and she would leave.

"Yeah," She said and just continued to walk forward.

Once inside the zoo a lady approached us. I hoped she was the person we were supposed to be meeting because I don't know what I would do if she was to hit on Santana or something. Do I still get to call Santana my girlfriend and tell the lady to back off? I was so confused in our situation.

"Hi there, you must be Brittany Pierce," the woman said to me. I released my breath I didn't know I was holding and nodded with relief.

"Are you Alex?" I asked her.

"Sure am, and I suppose you are Santana?" Santana nodded still unsure at what was going on. I hopped she liked my surprise, I think I would cry if she didn't. "Well thanks for joining us today and I hope you enjoy everything that Brittany planned." Santana turned to me a smiled which caused me to light up with joy.

"Follow me please," Alex said as we followed her through out the Zoo. Santana and I stayed a little behind her, it felt good that Santana would rather walk with me then the lady in front of us.

"What did you plan Britt?" Britt, she called me Britt again.

"You'll have to wait and see," I said, she just shook her head and looked forward again, but I knew she didn't shake her head cause she was mad at me because I saw the little smile that creeped up on her face when she turned away from me.

"Now I have to warn you that these are only babies so you need to be carful with me, they're used to people but sometimes they can still be a little scared of you at first," Santana suddenly realized where we were and her eye light up with joy and she turned to me with the biggest smile on her face.

"I'm gonna hold a Panda?" I nodded and before I knew what was happening, Santana's arms were wrapped around me hugging me tightly. Everything felt right again but I knew I was still walking on eggshells so I had to still earn her trust and make sure this whole day was perfect. "Britt this is so amazing," she was starting to get tears in her eyes. Happy tears.

"You like it?" I asked still a little unsure.

"I love it!" Santana said. "Thank you, thank you so much!" she squealed. I had never heard her squeal before but it was so cute.

We followed the lady into the room where a baby Panda was waiting for us patiently. It looked so cute sitting there, it's little eyes were staring back at us and it looked like it was sort of smiling. I looked at Santana and saw the sparkle in her eyes as she looked at it. Her mouth was forming the biggest smile I had ever seen on her. Alex then genially picked up the Panda and gave it to Santana to hold. She was a little nervous at first, I could tell but after she held it for a little big she was a natural.

Seeing them together was the cutest thing I had ever seen. They just looked so cute! I couldn't even contain how happy I was at this moment, just seeing Santana happy while holding the Panda was enough to make me on a happy high forever. I pulled out my phone to take a picture of the two of them. She smiled at me and then looked down to the Panda and started rubbing it's belly, which only made the Panda nuzzle into her.

"What's it's name? Santana asked.

"Willy," Alex said.

"Hey there Willy," Santana said as she continued to rub his belly. Then he started making a noise I didn't know Panda's could make but it was adorable and it made Alex smile.

"That means he likes you," Alex said. How could he not like her, everyone likes Santana, she's just so easy to be around. Alex then turns to me. "Do you want to hold him?"

"No I'm alright thanks," This was Santana's day, which means everything was about her. It had to be perfect, that was the only way she might ever forgive me.

A few minutes later and our time with Willy was up, Alex thanked us for coming and then we went our different ways. Santana was still all smiley from getting to hold him I could tell she really liked it which I hopped was enough to get her to give me another chance, but if it wasn't this day was still not over.

"Um I have some food ready, if you want some?" I said a little unsure again.

"You have more stuff planned?" She asked in surprise, I looked at her scared to answer that question. Maybe it was too much, maybe I should have just stuck to the Panda and that's all. I didn't know if she wanted more or if she already had enough of me.

"You don't have to if you don't want to," I say really hoping she would stay.

"No, I like food. Let's eat," she said.

I lead Santana to the park that was by the Zoo, we walked for a little bit until we reached an area that wasn't filled up with too many people, actually we were the only two people in that area of the park which just made this day a whole lot better. There was a garden of flowers not too far off from us, which was where I was planning to take Santana. I had come across this part of the park when I was walking after I had a bad day. I wanted to clear my head away from everything and that's when I found this place. It was so peaceful and relaxing, I just had to share it with someone.

Once we reached the place Santana's eyes light up once again. There were flowers everywhere and thankfully Rachel had set everything up when I text her that Santana and I were leaving the Zoo.

"It's beautiful," Santana said to me and she made her way to the basket of food.

"Glad you like it," I told her and hand her a sandwich that I had made that morning. It was a ham sandwich, one of her favorites.

"How did you do all of this?" She asked me.

"I have some helpers," I tell her, she just laughs and then shoves the sandwich in her mouth. I take a couple bites to and then stop when I notice she's laughing at something, she's laughing at me. I look at her curiously.

"You have some sauce of your face right there," she says and points to her mouth. I try and whip it off but according to Santana the sauce is still there. "Here let me," she takes a napkin and then whips it off my face. I look away and blush, I don't want her to see but I'm not good at hiding those things so when I look back I notice she's smiling and blushing as well which causes me to blush more.

"Well, well, looks like we got a couple of dykes here eating some lunch. I hope you choke," some random man says as he gets closer towards us. I feel anger rise inside of me but I ignore it and pretend he's not there. Obviously Santana has the same idea because she turns her attention away from the man and back on me.

"Oh what so you're not only dykes but you're deaf too? What horrible people did you come out of," he said still not leaving us alone. "Especially you Blondie, you look like shit." That was the last straw.

"Why don't you go back to your closed minded friends and mind your own damn business," I say as I stand up to face him.

"Feisty, I don't like that, but I do like you," he says to Santana.

"You stay away from her!" I say, he looks at me amused and I swallow hard because he's creeping me out and I just want him to go away.

"Geeze lady calm down, I just want to turn her normal again, at least she'll have a chance unlike you," Santana then stands up in front of me and moves me out of the way.

"Listen here buddy, we are not interested in you so you can kindly back the fuck off, we don't want you here and you have no right to talk to her like that so fuck off!" Santana was fuming with anger, that was hot but I really couldn't do anything about it now because I didn't know where I stood.

"Whatever," the guy scoffed and then left us alone.

"The nerve of that guy," Santana said. "Britt I'm sorry, he just ugh, makes me so mad. I think I just need to calm down a little bit. I'm sorry, I'm gonna need to take off," and that was that. Santana had made her choice. I had asked if I could get another chance and I totally blew it. This was the final strike. She was leaving.

"Yeah ok," I say in a small voice while I look to the ground.

"You okay?" she asks and I can only nod because I think if I were to open my mouth and say something I would break down in tears. I have to learn how to survive without Santana. That's what I'd be doing survive and not living because I can only live when I'm with her. " Britt, I know you're not okay."

I look up at her and then it hits me. My breaking point, I feel the tears start to roll out of my eyes and no matter how hard I try to make them stop they don't because I know this might be the last moment I get to spend with Santana and that was killing me inside.

"I just wanted... I wanted this to b-be perfect. I can't s-stand the thought of you out o-of my life and I-I screwed up so badly. And then he comes a-and messes it up more. I-I'm just s-so s-sorry. And I know I've lost my chance and I-I," I was getting harder and harder for me to talk and I probably looked like a fool to her so I just turned around and started to walk to the flowers, standing there looking at the view.

I stood there for a good minute trying to re collect myself and make my crying go down. Santana had probably left by now, she probably realized that she could get someone better then me, someone who would actually believe her when they said she didn't cheat on them. Someone worthy of her. I suddenly jumped when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and was shocked when I saw that hand belonged to Santana.

"Britt, I just said I needed some time. I don't want to break up with you, I love you too much and everything you did today was so perfect, screw the guy. He was an asshole. I love you and everything you do," I started to cry again because I couldn't believe what Santana was telling me. "Please don't cry," Santana says as she whips the tears from my eyes.

"You're my everything Britt and I do forgive you okay. Just remember that," I nod my head and smile at her. She then wraps her arms around me holding me. She feels so warm and full of love and I feel safe again. I nuzzle my face into the crook of her neck and she just holds me, like nothing ever changed.

"I love you too," I whisper into her.
