My Getaway

The following morning Santana woke up and admired her surroundings. Although the room was a site to see, with the lavender paint and the off-white curtains, Santana couldn't help but admire the blonde next to her. Santana was mesmerized by the way her blonde hair draped down the side of her face and then she noticed the freckles that Santana didn't get a chance to see yesterday.

"Good morning sunshine." Brittany said with the sound of sleep still lingering in her throat.

"Good morning." Santana mumbled.

"Like what you see?"

"Uh yeah you have nice curtains… I'm going to go brush my teeth."

A small smirk tugged on Brittany's lips while admiring the view of Santana walking out the door.

After a shower, and some breakfast Quinn came over to take Brittany and Santana to go take their school i.d pictures and pick up their textbooks. Like yesterday, Brittany took the seat next to Quinn and Santana in the back. Quinn pulled into the student parking lot and the feeling Santana ad when she first met the Pierce Family returned. Like the pierce family, something about McKinley high school made her believe she was getting closer to finding where her real home is.

Santana followed the girls to the picture room and was surprised when they didn't have to wait in the long line. The only problem they had was with a dwarf with an oversized nose that told Brittany she couldn't cut and had to go to the back of the line like everyone else. Santana wasn't sure why the creature's tone of voice with Brittany bothered her so much, but before she could say anything to her, Quinn came in to the rescue.

"Calm down Rachel, you should appreciate us taking our pictures at this time. It'll give you a chance to run to the washroom and try to fix that thing you call a face."

Santana couldn't help but smile and tried to cover her giggle with a cough. This didn't go unnoticed by Quinn but before she had the chance to say anything the photographer was calling her over to take her picture. Santana watched as Quinn walked by so graciously and smiled so beautifully for her school picture. Santana couldn't help but think that Quinn came from a family of royals. Santana wouldn't be surprised if it were true. Brittany was next, Santana watched as she walked to the stool with so swiftly. Brittany wore a blue top that would complement her eyes and to her luck the backdrop was also blue. Santana admired how her eyes were so noticeable and was in complete awe when Brittany smiled for the camera. Santana was after Brittany, she walked over to the stool hesitantly. The camera lady gave her directions on how to sit. Santana was too consumed by the mole on the strange woman's oversized

nose to pay much attention. After three pathetic attempts at smiling the photographer got a picture of Santana she found decent and released her.

Brittany told Santana she had to go talk to her cheerleading coach before they could go get their textbooks. Santana followed as Quinn and Brittany walked into the school gym. She took a seat on the bleachers while she watched the girls walk up to an old blonde woman who looked like she just smelled something really bad. She wasn't sure why, but this woman gave off a bad vibe.

Santana watched as she saw the woman yelling at Quinn. She didn't like how stiff Brittany got once the woman started to raise her voice. Santana couldn't take the site of Quinn and Brittany getting in trouble for who knows what reason, so she stood up to leave.

"And where exactly do you think you're going amigo?"

Santana froze, she thought the old woman was too involved in yelling at the girls to notice her.

"Coach Sue." Quinn began.

"Not now blondie, I was talking to our new friend here."

Santana didn't know what to do so she just stood there still.

"Come here." Coach sue demanded.

Santana looked over to Brittany who had a look of fear in her eyes. Brittany broke eye contact and Santana felt her stomach drop. Once Santana was in arms distance from coach sue, the woman began to walk around Santana, Santana couldn't help but feel like she was being read and the thought of that made her feel so naked and embarrassed.

"I like your image new girl, welcome to the cheerios."

"I don't cheer." Santana tried to explain.

"You're small so it'll be easy to toss you in the air. You have exceptional looks although the uniform will showcase it more than those satanic music shirts and skinny pants. You're tan skin will also add to cheerio funding, you're on the squad. Quinn and Brittany will start teaching you routines tomorrow."

The three girls stood there as coach walked away.

Quinn looked to Brittany who was looking at Santana stare at the ground while playing with her sweater sleeves and biting her bottom lip.

"What just happened?" Santana asked.

"I have no idea, but let's not mess this up." Brittany responded.

"Santana has got this. After all, she will be learning from us." Quinn said simply.

"That's true, I bet she'll be so good she'll give you a run for captain, Quinn."

"I bet she will." Quinn shot a mischievous smile at Santana.

Santana sighed, senior year was not going how she planned.

A half hour later the girls were on their way home with their textbooks. Quinn had to go to a dinner party so the girls departed at the driveway.

Brittany and Santana began to walk to their house.

"So, how do you like McKinley?" Brittany asked.

"It's cool I guess." Santana replied.

"Excited to be a cheerio?"

"Not really, I don't know how to dance to be honest."

"Don't worry, I'll take you under my wing and you'll be the second best members on the squad."

Santana opened the door to Brittany's room and put her books on the shelf. Santana sighed, she was exhausted and wasn't quite sure why.

"Do you have any plans today Santana?"

"Umm, no." Santana assumed Brittany could answer that herself, but she didn't want to be mean to Brittany.

"Come on, I want to show you something."

Brittany grabbed onto Santana's arm and led her to the car.

Neither girl would say it, but the moment their skin made contact, they both felt an intense zap rush to the part where the other was touching. Like static electricity.

Brittany drove for at least 10 minutes and then parked her car in a wheat field.

"Where are we?" Santana asked.

"Come on." Brittany tugged on Santana's arm, the zap came again.

Brittany led Santana into a building shaped like a dome. A sign read "Planetarium and observatory." The girls walked in and Santana immediately fell in love with the building. The ceiling consisted of dark lights with an occasional bright light that resembled stars. There was a hologram room that projected galaxies and planets. Santana was too taken by the building to notice Brittany smiling at her.

"You're adorable." Brittany sighed.

Santana ducked her head and was suddenly fascinated by her sweater sleeves and finger nails.

"I think it's cute how much you like just this part of the building. Wait until you're upstairs during a meteor shower. It's like magic."

"Can we see it?" Santana asked.

"Of course." Brittany tried to grab Santana's hand to lead her upstairs but Santana's hand flinched before she had the chance.

"I don't bite." Brittany chuckled.

"Sorry I didn't..."

"It's okay Santana, let me just show you the top floor before it gets too late."

Santana wasn't sure why, but she felt guilty for not letting Brittany hold her hand, but it was just that Brittany had already touched her twice today and that's about as much human contact she can handle for 24 hours.

Two flights of stairs later and the girls were standing on the roof. Santana looked at her surroundings, there were a few seats out, a big telescope that she wasn't sure how to move, and there was another level separated by a railing, it had multiple love seats. There was something about this building that made Santana feel safe. She was this is where she was going to be spending most of her time.

After about 45 minutes of sitting in quiet, Santana started to yawn. She was feeling tired again and didn't know why.

"Do you want to go take a nap Santana?" Brittany questioned.

"I would like to rest a bit yes, if that's fine with you." Santana was sure getting sleepy.

"Yeah, I know where to take you. Let's go."

Brittany led Santana through a couple of trees and a dirt path not too far from the building. Santana breath got caught in her throat when she seen the beautiful site in front of her. There was a bed of grass and flowers all around, surrounding a small lake. It looked more like a pond except the water was clear and there weren't a lot of animals in it.

"It's beautiful." Santana said.

"Just like you."

Santana ducked her head and stared at the floor.

"I come here when I need a getaway. I've never showed anybody this place. It's like my safe haven, so feel special Santana."

"Thank you Brittany, it's wonderful."

"We should get going now, it's getting late and you need to eat."

Santana felt warm after hearing those words. She had forgotten what it felt like to be cared for.

One the ride home Santana spent most of the time thinking of Brittany rather than talking to her. She really wanted to talk to Brittany, she just didn't know how to hold a conversation. It was foreign to her. She was so used to staying quiet, it was a reason she never had friends. Santana really wanted to be friends with Brittany. She didn't know why, but Santana was fascinated by the gift that was Brittany. Santana just wanted talk to her. She wanted to share secrets. Mostly she wanted to be friends. It had been way too long since Santana had a friend. It didn't matter to her though, because hopefully soon enough she would be able to call Brittany her friend. Maybe even Quinn, although her main focus was Brittany. Mostly Brittany, actually just Brittany.

"We're here."

Santana didn't hear, she was too deep in her thoughts of Brittany becoming her friend.

"Santana?" Brittany asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"Yeah?"

"We're home."

"Oh, cool."

Santana didn't know what to say or do so she just sat there.

"Should I open your door for you, princess?"

Santana's eyes widened. Crap. She hated how awkward she was.

"Uh, no. That's fine sorry. I was just thinking."

"I'm just messing with you gorgeous. Can I know what you were thinking about?"

"Nothing important." Santana smiled politely and opened her door.

Brittany frowned. She didn't understand why it was so hard to talk to Santana. She liked trying though, the mystery that was Santana intrigued her, and she really wanted to get to know her. She planned on them having a great friendship. Plus she found Santana hot and she was excited about sharing a room with her, hopefully she could turn this friendship into one like hers with Quinn. She smiled to herself and headed inside.

"Mom we're home!" Brittany called for her mom.

"They're not here britt." Tyler spoke.

"Hey kiddo!" Brittany picked up her little brother and shook him while she hugged him.

"I'm hungry Brittany, so is Santana. She told me she wanted chicken nuggets and macaroni."

"Is that right buddy? Did Santana really?" Brittany looked over at Santana who was smiling at Tyler.

"I did. I would love some dino nuggets and SpongeBob mac and cheese. Where do you keep the pots?" Santana wasn't hungry, but Tyler was so adorable she had to play along.

"I'll make dinner, can you do me a favor though and grab my phone from the room? Mom's gonna kill me for forgetting it again."

"Sure."

Santana walked up to Brittany's room, she opened the door and

"Oh gosh britt finally."

Santana was greeted to one of the boys from the wardrobe pictures. He wasn't wearing anything but the towel Santana used earlier, and laying on the side of the bed she slept on.

"Oh god I'm sorry I didn't know you were in here, i-." Santana tried to explain.

"OHMYGODYOURENOTBRITTANY" The brunette boy jumped out of the bed and began shuffling for his clothes.

"Sorry I should have been more specific it's okay I'll just get my phone you can- OH MY GOD ARTIE!" Brittany squealed the last part.

Brittany ran to Artie and immediately hugged him, soon enough they were having a full on make out session, in front of Santana.

Santana wanted to look away, she wanted to leave the room, but she was frozen. She heard Tyler walking up the stairs and finally snapped out of her daze. She met up with him in the middle of the stair case and grabbed his hand so she could take him somewhere other than that porn scene that was about to unravel in her sleeping spot.

"Where's britt?" Tyler questioned.

"She's upstairs taking care of stuff." Santana didn't want to say the wrong thing, but she couldn't tell a little boy her sister was about to get laid.

The macaroni was almost done cooking so Tyler set his favorite plated and fork on the counter so Santana could put his dinner on it.

"Power rangers huh?"

Tyler smiled. "Yup! I'm going to be just like the red one someday."

"Oh really? Do you want to know a secret?"

"Uh huh." Tyler nodded, he was smiling real wide. He loved when people shared secrets with him.

"Red is my favorite color."

"That means I'm going to be your favorite person ever, and some day we're going to get married and have 12 dogs on Mars!" Tyler was excited, he always wanted to have lots of dogs with a pretty girl.

Santana chuckled at the young boys logic.

"Yes Tyler, exactly."

Santana scooped some macaroni and grabbed some chicken nuggets and put them on Tyler's plate.

She also did the same for her and walked to the table. She picked around her food for a bit, but wasn't really hungry. Tyler finished his food fast so she gave him some of hers, and ate the rest of hers.

She washed the dishes after the two of them finished their meal.

"Santana, can you watch a movie with me please?" Tyler asked with his best puppy dog face.

"I would love to!" Santana smiled at Tyler, she thought he was the most adorable thing ever.

Halfway through the movie Tyler fell asleep on Santana, Santana wasn't used to contact, but she didn't mind the fact that he was laying on her lap. She thought he looked so peaceful and it reminded her of a certain other blonde she knew.

Speaking of Brittany, her and the guy upstairs still weren't done and Santana really wanted to go to sleep. She decided she would just rest her eyes while she waited.

Moments later Brittany walked downstairs with artie, in nothing but an oversized shirt. The giggles didn't go unnoticed by Santana. She didn't like this artie kid, she didn't like that he was sleeping with Brittany. She didn't like it at all, because that was her bed now. She was upset at the fact that she had to sleep on that bed, next to Brittany, but she wouldn't say anything about it. Santana watched as Brittany walked artie to his car and used those moments to move Tyler up to his room and get ready for bed. After she finished her before bed necessities she walked in to the room and seen Brittany changing the sheets, thank god she thought.

"Sorry, about that." Brittany began.

"It's fine, if you don't mind I would rather you skip the details, I just really want to sleep." Santana was still upset.

"Wow, sorry beautiful, I hope you sleep well.' Brittany wasn't sure how to handle this new attitude she got from Santana. It was kind of hot.

Santana sighed and laid down, hopefully she could rest without the thoughts of what just happened on this bed playing in her mind.

Brittany closed her eyes and almost instantly fell asleep. Santana just watched as Brittany's chest fell and rose, hopefully it would help her sleep.

As her eyes were getting heavy, Santana felt weight on her upper stomach, and her arm, it burned. Santana opened her eyes to see it was Brittany's arm. Her body was tingling. She sighed again, this was going to be a long night.
