CHAPTER 2
Quinn knew Santana's talk with Brittany wasn't going to end well. So she wasn't surprised when she didn't show up to Spanish class. Granted, Santana liked to skip classes every now and then, but Quinn knew this wasn't one of those times.
Quinn needed to find her friend, she was really worried. She decided to skip the rest of her classes and glee club. After Spanish class she talked to Mr. Schue. She told him that Santana wasn't feeling well and that she was going to drive her home, so neither of them will be attending to glee club. Then she went to find Santana. There was only one place where she could be. Santana's favorite spot in the whole school, the bleachers.
Santana was still sitting down under the bleachers; her eyes were puffy and red from crying. She had her head resting on the wall and her eyes closed when she felt someone standing next to her, she slowly opened her eyes.
"Hi." Quinn said softly.
"Hey. What are you doing here?" She asked Quinn, wiping the tears from her eyes.
"I came to find you. How are you?" She said as she kneeled down in front of Santana.
"I'll be fine. I wasn't expecting to cry this much." She gave Quinn a weak smile.
Quinn gave her friend a tight hug, and then she kissed her cheek. "Come on, we're leaving." Quinn said breaking the hug. She stood up and offered Santana her right hand, and Santana gladly took it.
"Where? What about school and glee club?" Quinn looked at her and smiled. "Forget about school. We're going to the video store. I decided that our amazing weekend will start early."
"You're ditching school, Quinn Fabray?" Santana asked trying to sound surprised. "You make me oh so proud." She placed her hand on her heart dramatically.
Quinn couldn't help but laugh, she loved how Santana could always make her laugh. That was a part of Santana that not many people knew she had. In that way they were alike, they didn't let people into their lives that easily.
"And the video store? Really? I have a Netflix account, you know." Santana teased Quinn.
"What can I say? I'm old fashioned."
xXxXxXxX
They got a lot of movies, and most of them were Santana's pick. They also bought pop corn, pizza, a lot of candies, and beers. Quinn still wasn't sure how Santana convinced some random guy to buy them beer, but she didn't care, she knew Santana could be very persuasive.
Santana was being her normal self, but Quinn could see the pain in her eyes. She didn't push her to talk, she knew better than that; all she could do was wait until Santana was ready to talk.
Santana went through all the movies she picked until she decided that they were going to watch 'The Shining'.
"Q, are you serious? You've never seen 'The Shining'?" She was shocked. She couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"No. The only Stephen King movie I've watched is 'Secret Window'. I really liked it" Quinn shrugged.
"I can't believe it. You're so lucky you have me, I'm going to introduce you to a brand new world." She put the movie on the dvd player and sat next to Quinn.
They decided to leave the pop corn for later and start with the pizza and beer. By the middle of the movie they were both a little drunk, Quinn more than Santana. She wasn't used to drink that much so she got drunk really fast.
The movie finally ended and they were both drunk. "So, did you like it?" Santana asked her, she was kind of excited.
Quinn was wondering how much she could push her until she snapped. "Hmm… I'm not sure." She said, teasing Santana.
"What do you mean you're not sure?" Santana furrowed her eyebrows.
"I didn't get it. I didn't even know what was going on." Quinn could see that Santana was starting to get annoyed.
"What?! But… " Santana was cut off by Quinn, "I'm kidding, I loved it. It was kinda creepy but I loved it." Quinn burst into laughter, Santana was clearly not amused.
"I hate you, Fabray." She said as she threw her a couple of gummy bears.
"Hey! Don't waste the candy!" She threw her a couple too.
They kept watching movies, eating and playing with each other for hours until it was time to go to bed.
Quinn was taking a shower while Santana changed, she liked to sleep in a tank top and short shorts, Quinn also liked short shorts but she preferred an old t-shirt over tank tops. She turned off the lights and laid on Quinn's bed. She stared at the ceiling thinking about all that happened that day, she tried not to because she didn't want to cry again, but she didn't, she felt a little better and it was because of Quinn. Quinn made her feel loved and safe; she knew that Quinn would always watch her back. Suddenly she felt Quinn lying next to her. She didn't even hear her come out of the bathroom.
"Quinn?" She said in a small voice.
"Santana."
"Thank you." She was still staring at the ceiling.
"For what?" Quinn rolled onto her side to look at her.
"For… everything." A tear rolled down her left cheek, but Quinn didn't noticed.
"You're welcome." Quinn had a smile on her face, but since it was dark Santana couldn't see her.
"I love you, Q."
"I love you too."
And with that both girls fell asleep with a big smile on their faces.
xXxXxX
The next morning when Quinn woke up she felt the empty space next to her, she was about to call Santana when a familiar smell hit her nostrils. It was the greatest smell in the whole world. Bacon. She went downstairs and into the kitchen, she saw Santana dancing in front of the stove frying bacon, lots and lots of bacon, she was listening to her ipod so she didn't noticed Quinn entering the kitchen.
She's such a dork. Quinn giggled. And oh so adorable. She was really enjoying watching Santana swinging her hips at the beat of the music. There was something about it that got Quinn mesmerized, but she couldn't quite put her finger on the reason why. Suddenly Santana turned around and that pulled Quinn out of her thoughts.
"Holy shit!" she almost had a heart attack when she saw Quinn standing at the kitchen door, and almost drop the pan she was holding. "What the fuck is wrong with you, Q? You scared the shit out of me!"
Quinn couldn't help but burst into laughter. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. It's just that it looked like you were having a lot of fun and I didn't wanted to spoil it."
"I don't care." Santana crossed her arms across her chest.
"Would you forgive me?" Quinn asked her pouting.
"Stop it! I'm not falling for that." It was really hard for Santana to being fake mad at Quinn while she was looking at her like that, she looked too damn adorable.
"Please? Pretty please?" Quinn kept pouting, but this time she added the puppy dog eyes, she knew that'd do it.
"Fine! I forgive you." Santana caved, Quinn's adorable face was too much.
"I knew you would." Quinn smirked. "So, what are we eating? It smells delicious!"
"Well, it's nothing special, just a Bacon and Cheese omelette, with extra bacon on the side. I know how much you love it." She served the omelettes and poured some orange juice in two glasses.
Quinn sat down on her kitchen's table and Santana placed a plate in front of her, then she took a seat across from Quinn. Quinn took a bite of the omelette that was in front of her. " .God." Quinn was pleasantly surprised. "This is so good. I didn't know you cooked."
Santana blushed. "Thanks. Actually, nobody knows. Besides, I can't cook anything fancy, just simple stuff."
Outside her family nobody knew she liked to cook, in fact, there are a lot of thing that Santana likes that nobody knows because when she's at school she is a different person. Every time she enters school she becomes this mean and bitchy character, that's her way to protect herself. If she's a bitch nobody will get close to her and that way she won't get hurt. Clearly that didn't work out that well with Brittany, but she didn't regret all that happened between them, that's what helped her realize who she really was.
After all that happened to her over the last year she felt like she had changed, she didn't care that much about her reputation anymore but she was still afraid of what people might think if she came out as a lesbian. She decided that she was going to try to be a nicer person at school, at least to the glee kids. She was really trying but the character she created for herself was too hard to get rid of. The speaking her mind part was the real Santana, but the super bitch was definitely not her.
"Well, you're really good. This tastes awesome. So… what are we doing today?" Quinn changed the subject.
"Um… I don't know. Do you have something in mind?" Santana asked curiously.
"We could go to the mall. There's food, clothes and jewelry. What do you think?"
"Food?! We haven't even finished breakfast and you're already thinking about food?!" She liked to tease Quinn, a lot.
"Are you calling me fat?! I was just pointing out that they have food." Quinn was outraged.
Santana burst into laughing. "Of course not. The mall sounds good." She winked at her friend.
"I don't wanna go anymore." Quinn crossed her arms and turned her head to her right side.
"What?! Come on, Q. Please?" Now it was time for Santana to pout.
"Fine. Stop begging." It amazed Quinn how Santana could convince her so fast.
They finished their breakfast and cleaned the kitchen. Quinn changed while Santana took a shower, and an hour later they were on their way to the mall.
xXxxxXx
The girls were having a blast on the mall, trying on clothes and making little runway shows for each other while modeling their potential outfits. They both bought a lot of clothes and after a while they got hungry. They were walking towards the food court when something caught Santana's eye. It was a silver necklace on the window case of a jewelry store, she immediately thought of Quinn when she saw it. I have to buy it. She thought. But, how? I don't want Quinn to know. Santana was pulled out of her thoughts when they got to the food court and Quinn asked her what she wanted to eat.
"Hmm… Sushi?"
"I was thinking the same! What do you want?" Quinn asked.
"I don't know. Surprise me." Finally she figured out how to go to the jewelry store without Quinn suspecting anything. "I have to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back. Keep an eye on our stuff."
"Sure. I'll go order." While Quinn ordered their food Santana started to walk towards the jewelry store checking every now and then if she was out of Quinn's sight.
When Santana returned Quinn was sitting on a table next to the fountain.
"I ordered you California rolls. Is that ok?" Quinn asked.
"Umm… Yes. Thanks, Q"
"No problemo."
They started eating their sushi and small chatting about random things, school, tv, music and other stuff. When they finished eating Santana thought ice cream would be a nice dessert, so she bought a huge banana split for both of them.
"So… I got you something." Santana said while taking a box out of her jacket's pocket.
"Oh my god. Santana Lopez, are you proposing?" She said mockingly.
"Why, yes. Be my lovely wife, Lucy Quinn Fabray." Santana used a dramatic tone.
Quinn was laughing so hard. "Dork."
"It takes one to know one." Santana winked at her.
Quinn took the box out of Santana hand and opened it. "Oh my. It's beautiful Santana. Thanks!"
Santana blushed. "I wanted to properly thank you for being there for me, and for putting up with me and all my crap. I really appreciate it."
"You can always count on me, S. You're my best friend. And this wasn't really necessary. You've put up with my problems too." Quinn stood up and hugged Santana.
Santana helped Quinn to put her new necklace on; it was a silver angel charm necklace. It looked beautiful on Quinn. When Quinn sat back on her chair she saw a familiar blonde sitting a couple of feet from them, just behind Santana. At first Quinn wasn't sure if it was Brittany, but then she saw Artie.
Uh oh, this is not going to be good. Quinn thought. I have to do something. "We should get going. We still have a lot of movies to watch and pop corn to eat." She said rushing Santana to leave, hoping she wouldn't turn around and see Brittany.
"Sure, just let me throw this into the garbage can." Santana was about to pick their empty food trades when Quinn stopped her.
"No! I'll do it." Quinn rushed and took the trades.
"Why are you acting weird? Are you…" Santana turned around and saw Brittany. "Oh."
