Chapter 4
A/N: I've been really, really busy recently and I'm so sorry I've not been able to update and stories :( Should be back to normal soon though.
Santana tried to focus her eyes, was it really her? Why was she even here? Her ex just stood there, with her hands on her hip and a smirk on her face.
"Jess?" Santana muttered out.
"Santana, you okay?" She asked the Latina.
"What are you here for?" Santana asked just getting irritated by her bitch of an ex's presence.
"Just partying and I saw you all on your own" She smiled "thought I'd come and help you out" She winked.
"I'm not on my own."
"Clearly"
Santana looked past Jessica to see if she could see Brittany, but the bar was packed and she was probably trapped in the big crowd. Great she thought.
"Just go. I don't want any trouble" Santana asked trying to be polite.
"But I reallllly wanted to have a good catch up, you know" Jessica pouted as she sat down next to Santana.
"News flash, I'm over you. Was a long time ago, now leave before I don't ask so nicely again." Santana told her more sternly.
"Boo. Whoever you're with must be a bitch, you've turned really sour. Can't you just have a good time with an old friend?" She wound Santana up.
"For fuck sake, are you trying to piss me off." Santana said taking in a deep breath. She had sobered up a little bit but not nearly enough to get up and find Brittany.
"Come on, you will always have a thing for me, I still love you" Jessica said moving closer to her now.
"No you didn't" Santana laughed, and internally praying for Brittany to return quickly. "And you don't mean shit to me"
"Denial babe." She moved her hand over to Santana's arm that flinched under her touch.
Santana gulped as she looked at Jessica's hand on her arm, "Just go, my d-date will be back in a minute" Santana told her, as she lost some of her will power when Jessica moved her hand onto her leg and began stroking up and down her thigh.
Brittany had finally managed to get a glass of water and make it back through the crowd of people; she looked into the booth and saw somebody sat very closely with Santana.
"Seriously, get off of me." Santana said trying to push Jessica back, but she didn't budge.
Brittany decided to walk into the booth and intervene, "I think she told you to get off of her" Brittany told the girl.
"Who the fuck are you?" Jessica asked turning around "You must be the date" she said laughing.
"Yeah, now go. She clearly doesn't want you." Brittany told her, keeping herself calm.
"She will just sleep with you, and then never talk to you again. You should remember that" Jessica told Brittany as she stood up.
"I recall that that was you" Santana said holding onto the table "All those times you cheated on me"
"Honey, move" Jessica said looking Brittany up and down. "And FYI, she's not out to her parents and is in a fake relationship, with a guy" She laughed as she barged past Brittany knocking her into the wall.
Brittany tried to catch herself, but she had already drank a bit and dropped the glasses in her hand, as soon as Jessica touched Brittany, Santana was already up and grabbed Jessica's shoulder to turn her around.
"What the fuck, you could of hurt her?" Santana shouted in her face.
"You mean I didn't, too bad." She smiled sweetly at Santana, making her madder.
Brittany had already stood up and grabbed Santana around the waste, "Leave it, she's not worth our time" Brittany told Santana calming her down as Jessica walked off.
"I didn't even get to chuck my drink over her" Santana said as she slumped onto the sofa.
"I wouldn't waste one on her if I was you" Brittany laughed as Santana smiled at her.
"So the things she said…" Brittany started off "Were they true?"
"Erm partially" Santana took in a deep breath as Brittany sat down next to her "I never cheated on her, and we were in a couple of months long relationship. But the bit about my parents and stuff is kinda true." Santana said holding her head down ashamed.
"Hey, talk to me about it" Brittany consoled her and held her hand.
"I came out to my mum, and she basically disowned me and forced me into a relationship and to keep it a secret from my father." Santana took a sip of her drink "His name is Ricardo. He is my best friend, and he is totally okay with it, but I realised I need to be strong and we both need to get on with our lives."
"Wow" Brittany breathed out. "Well, my parents embraced it a little too well. They constantly are at me about my love life. I have no privacy with them." Santana smiled at Brittany getting slightly annoyed, which Brittany noticed.
"I mean you haven't seen a large ginger man and small blonde lady have you? Both in their 50's or so" Brittany asked looking out into a club.
"No, I can't say I have" Santana laughed at Brittany.
"You're so gorgeous" Brittany randomly told Santana as she was looking at her whilst she was laughing.
"You are beautiful too" Santana said blushing slightly.
Santana leaned closer to Brittany, staring intently at her facial features, admiring each freckle and every shade of blue in her eyes.
Brittany giggled as she grabbed Santana's face and began kissing her again, Santana smiling constantly.
About 20 minutes later and both Santana and Brittany were in the back of a taxi together heading back to Santana's apartment. They got in as Santana turned around to Brittany and loudly shushed her, making Brittany laugh as she covered her mouth with both hands.
"Do you want any food, I'm so hungry" Santana said as she weaved into the kitchen.
"I could do some food now, I'm hungry too" Brittany mumbled out.
"Erm, I have pizza, or some sandwiches. Oh orrrr I have some Cheetos. What do you wanna eat?" Santana asked looking through all the cupboards.
"Cheetos" Brittany said excitedly "but I'd really like to eat you" Brittany told her biting her bottom lip as Santana tip toed to try and reach something in the top cupboard.
"Will you help me or do you wanna stare at my ass instead?" Santana teased her as she still struggled to reach.
"Well I mean" Brittany laughed. She took one more look at Santana in her dress and moved around to easily reach the top shelf. "You are really small without your heels on aren't you?" Brittany pointed out.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah" Santana laughed it off, "you got your Cheetos"
"Like I said I'd much rather have you instead" Brittany said pushing her up against the counter, running her hands up and down Santana's sides.
"Wanna finish what we started in the taxi in my room?" Santana winked sliding free and going to her room.
Brittany quickly followed her, trying not to make too much noise but she didn't really care at that point.
The Next Morning
Santana opened one eye and couldn't see anything in the dark of her room, if it even was her room. She stumbled out of bed into her bathroom and cleaned her face with some water and took some painkillers to get rid of her headache. Santana grabbed the robe off her door and stumbled through the darkness of her room, not daring to open the curtains or turn the light switch on, and walked out the door.
She went to go downstairs when she heard people talking in Ricardo's room, which to her sounded like screaming. She saw her bag outside her room and picked it up pulling her phone out, it was 1:27pm "Shit" She whispered to herself, as she checked her messages she saw that she had two off her parents, they were about to get here any minute.
She ran around to Ricardo's room and walked straight in, Ricardo about jumped out of his seat, "What's wrong?"
"My parents are about to get here" Santana told him waving her hands about.
"Okay, I have some of your clothes in my drawers, you get dressed and sort out your hair, and I will make the room look tidy" Ricardo said as he started to make the bed.
5 minutes later and they heard their doorbell ring "shit, that's them." Santana said as they made their way to the landing at the top of the stairs.
"Santana what the fuck?" Ricardo said pulling up a bra and some other clothing items of the stairs and landing.
"Shit, erm you answer the door, anything you find downstairs hide in the storage closet and I'll get rid of this." She said taking the clothes off him and going in her room turning the light on.
Her eyes were wide open when she saw a blonde woman sprawled out on her bed. Naked. She pulled out her phone and texted Ricardo and told him about their situation.
She went over and gently tried to wake up Brittany, as she began to remember the events from last night.
"Brittany, wake up" Santana said softly as she shook her carefully.
"Hey you" She smiled sweetly at Santana as she sat up. "I had a great time last night" She told her as her smile grew even bigger.
"Yeah me too, look, are you still drunk at all?" Santana asked her.
"No, I'm fine. I don't get hungover bad, especially if I had sex as well." She said trying to pull Santana back into bed.
"Mmhm look do you remember what I told you about my parents and me being gay last night?" Santana quickly asked her, trying to resist the blonde.
"Yeah, the whole coming out thing and shit" She said pulling a sheet over herself.
"Well they are kinda here right now." She said quietly "And I kinda don't want them to see this"
"I understand, have you got any clothes I can borrow please?" Brittany calmly asked her.
"Yeah sure, whatever you like is in there" She said pointing to her walk in wardrobe
"Wow, this is, awesome." Brittany said as she looked inside "Did you want me to tell your parents I'm a friend that stopped over in your spare bedroom last night?"
"Um sure, if you don't mind" Santana asked her awkwardly.
"Cool, I always wanted a go at acting"
"I'm sure you will ace it" Santana smiled "And if you wanna escape, you can go into my study, there is a TV and laptop and stuff you can use"
"Okay, can I at least get a kiss?" Brittany asked Santana sweetly
"Sure" She said leaning in for a quick kiss.
She got a text from Ricardo that he had told her parents she was in the shower. So Santana quickly ran into her bathroom and wet her hair as she ran downstairs to go and say hello to her parents.
"Hey Mami, hey Papi" She said as she came downstairs. "My friend Brittany is her by the way, but she shouldn't be too much trouble"
"Right." Her mother said bluntly.
"How have things been recently Santana?" Her dad asked genuinely interested.
"Okay, I'm looking for a company to hire me, but in the meantime I'm going to try and record some songs. I wanna sing as well" Santana told him out of nowhere, surprising herself as well as everyone else in the room.
"That's great" He said smiling.
"You should pursue law; it's a proper career not a pipe dream." Her mum butted in.
"No, it's your dream for me to be a lawyer" Santana bit back.
Just then Brittany walked downstairs in Santana's clothes "Hi, I'm Brittany, I didn't mean to interrupt I'm just going in here and I'll stay out of your way." She said waving and then disappearing into the study room.
"Hey Gloria, do you want to run down to the shop with me?" Ricardo asked Santana's mum "I forgot to get a cheesecake" He offered.
"Sure, why not" she agreed getting her jacket and leaving the apartment.
"So, my little Santana all grown up in New York" He said moving over to sit on the same sofa as her.
"Yeah, look Papi, I need to talk to you about something, okay?" she said grabbing both his hands.
"Something that I have wanted to tell you for a long time now." She wiped the corners of her eyes
"What is it sweetie?" He asked nicely
"I'm scared to say, I don't want you to be ashamed of me"
"I would never be." He reassured her squeezing her hands.
"Okay. I-I I like girls the way I'm supposed to like boys." She just about whispered. Antonio let her carry on "It's been that way since high school, me and Ricardo we aren't in a relationship, we did it to make my Mami happy." She said with tears rolling down her face.
"What do you mean, to make her happy?" He asked confused.
"Oh shit" Santana whispered to herself, knowing she just dropped her mother into it.
"Language Mija"
"Sorry. I told her at graduation, and she told me how much of an embarrassment I was, and forced me to keep it a secret because of how shameful it is" Santana blurted out to her dad through all her tears.
"She is stupid, don't listen to her" he said pulling his daughter into a hug "I'm definitely not ashamed of you one bit I'm so, so proud. It's her I'm ashamed and embarrassed of." He wiped his daughter's tears away and looked her straight in the eyes "You are perfect. You always have been and still are to me. I can't be with your mother tonight though, not after what she has put you through."
"I'll stay in with Ricardo, and you or Mami can take the sofa" Santana told him.
"No ill book her a hotel, I think we all are gonna need a little space" He told her "And what about Brittany, is she just a friend?"
"Oh erm" Santana began to blush "we have been on a date and stuff, but I dunno, I do like her a lot."
"Tell her to come out here, I wanna say hi"
"What about when Mami gets back?" She asked nervously.
"I'm not going to let her ruin anybody's night, as soon as she gets back here I'm taking her outside and into a taxi." He told Santana sternly as she went to go get Brittany.
"Hey, you okay in here?" She asked as she walked through the door.
"Yeah it's so cool, hey are you okay?" She asked getting up when she saw Santana's wet eyes.
"Yeah, I just told my dad everything."
"How did he take it?" She said rubbing Santana's shoulder.
"Very well, he doesn't want my Mami here tonight though, but he asked me to get you to come say hello" She asked seeing if she would come outside.
"Great, not usually how a first date ends, meeting a parent but it should be fun." Brittany said positively "Oh Rachel and Kurt are gonna come pick me up in around an hour or so"
"Ok great, my dad might even remember them."
"Hi Mr Lopez" Brittany cheerfully greeted him.
"Hiya Brittany" he greeted her back as Santana and Brittany both sat down.
"So are you making my daughter happy?" He quickly asked
"Papi?" Santana looked at him.
"Oh erm, I hope so. I really like your daughter Mr Lopez" Brittany answered calmly.
"It's Antonio and that's good to hear."
Just then the front door opened and in walked Gloria and Ricardo.
"Gloria will you step outside with me for a minute please" Antonio got up and took her outside
"What does nobody want me in here?" she asked as they went outside.
"Hey how'd it go?" Ricardo asked Santana putting the cheesecake in the fridge.
"Great, and this is Brittany, Brittany this is Ricardo" she introduced them.
"Hi, nice to meet you Ricardo"
"You too Brittany"
"My dad is taking my mom to a hotel for the night." Santana told him.
"I got a text off Rachel and Kurt they're gonna be here soon" Brittany told Santana.
"Invite them up; we can have a little celebration party." Santana said trying to brighten the mood up.
"Okay sure sounds like fun" Brittany said excitedly.
"You remember Rachel Berry and Kurt Hummel right, Rick?" Santana teased Ricardo.
"Oh yeah best friends" He said with his voice full of sarcasm.
"I'm gonna invite Puck, Quinn and a few other people" Santana told him "We got enough drink?"
"Maybe, but I'll ask Puck to pick some up" He said looking behind the mini bar.
"Tonight is gonna be crazy" Brittany said.
"Most definitely" Santana agreed
