Take Her From You Chapter 3
QPOV
"We should probably go wake the others" Santana suggested. Her head rose from my shoulder like the sun was about to do. We spent the entire night cuddled up next to one another, watching the city lights and talking about whatever came to us. It reminded me of the nights we did this as kids; Summer time at her house, where we would sit on the lawn with lots of snacks and soda. I unwrapped my hand from shoulder and rested it on her head.
"We're going back to Lima" I said
"Don't remind me. I still have to pack" she stood, stretching her arms into the air and grunting. I shook my head doing a downward facing dog before jumping up.
"Because you haven't packed, you get to wake up Rachel. I hope for your sake Caden is wearing pants" Her hands went over her eyes and she threw the empty cigarette box at my head. I dodged it, watching it fly over the roof.
"Litterer!"
Santana rolled her eyes walking towards the door mumbling something about the amount of sleep she planned to get on our drive.
I closed the door behind me with my free hand and dumped the empty beer cans into the nearest garbage can. As we entered the loft door Santana begrudgingly walked over to Rachel's bedroom while I put coffee on and went over to Kurt's. I knocked lightly on his door before taking a risky peek inside.
"Hey" he whispered from the edge of his bed. He rubbed the remainder of sleep from his eyes closing a bag he was looking in. "Did you two just get in?"
I nodded, realizing he probably wouldn't be able to see me too well; the sun had yet to rise after all. "Yeah we were on the roof for a little while.
Kurt's door burst open and Santana poked her head through "That is the last time I go into her room" she said angrily before closing it behind her.
I chuckled turning to see Kurt's cringe "I don't even want to know what she saw. We better get out there, you know how she can be when she's riled up" he suggested
"Oh yeah" I said leading the way.
"Naked. Why is he ALWAYS naked?" Santana asked
Rachel folded her arms over her chest, giving me the opportunity to register the shortest pair of pants I have ever seen on her body. I admired her sleepwear for a couple more seconds, when I noticed Rachel was looking at me.
"-Quinn. I never would have come in there if she didn't send me to wake you"
My eyes darted confusedly between Santana and Rachel when Rachel piped up "I'm sure she said to wake us up, not come into our room bellowing, very boisterous, I might add 'wake up bitches'"
"Enough. You, go pack" I commanded pointing to Santana.
"You haven't packed?" Rachel questioned a little louder than she probably meant to.
"Don't start" I pleaded
"Fine. This isn't over" Rachel said to with Santana before storming back into her room. Santana huffed, walking towards her room and Kurt came up to me and put his arm around my shoulder.
"Did I forget to mention, I'm really glad you're here?" he laughed a little before walking over to the coffee and pouring us both a mug. He told me about Santana's first day here and how he didn't think her being here would work out, but somehow she and Rachel butt heads a lot more than he thought would actually happen. They all actually thought that it would be him and her that wouldn't get along too well. I laughed, reminding him how stubborn both of them can be; which resulted in more laughter.
"I'm finished. Gimme coffee" Santana urged walking towards us.
I turned and looked at her, studying her facial expression for a couple seconds. "Did you really pack or did you decide to use my clothes while we're in Lima? If that's the case, you need to get back in there because I am not about to do that Santana. We aren't 5 anymore"
She raised her eyebrow giving me a hard stare. "I hate you" she said snatching the coffee from my hand and walking back into her room. I turned to Kurt, shaking my head, who was trying and failing to hold his laugher in.
I stood to get a new mug of coffee, pouring it and going over to rejoin Kurt at the table. The sun had fully risen now and we would soon be expected to be on the road. Kurt was talking about the driving schedule, saying he would take the first leg and one of us, Rachel most likely will go afterwards, since neither Santana nor I had had any sleep the night before.
"Dibs on the shower" Rachel said cheerfully skipping towards us. She put her suitcase on the floor by the door and came over to us. "This is going to be fun" she said before grabbing my mug, grinning cheerful and walking away.
"Did I mention I'm really glad you're here?" Kurt's voice followed me as I stood from the table.
"You have got to be kidding me" I said as I ran after her to get my coffee back. "First Santana and now you? Give it here!" I commanded trying and failing to take the coffee from Rachel. She smiled at me slyly taking another sip of the coffee.
"Mmmmm so good. You should really get you some, Quinn"
I bit my lower lip, coming up with a plan.
"Okay Rachel, take my coffee"

Santana's hand somehow found its way on my shoulder as she slept. I will never understand her and Quinn's relationship; especially after last night. I stared out the window, remembering going up the stairs to the roof. It was almost 3am and Caden had just fallen asleep and I went to get a glass of water. I noticed that Santana's bedroom door was still opened so I wondered if she and Quinn forgot to close it. I peeped around and saw that the room was empty, meaning they were both still on the roof, hopefully not fighting.
I grabbed a coat to go see if they made up and that neither threw the other over the roof in the time they were up there. As I stepped on to the roof landing, I stood by the door holding the handle on the and pushed it open slightly. They sat there, cuddled up in one another. Quinn's hand was around Santana and I could hear them whispering to each other and giggling slightly.
Slap!
"Ow!" I said turning in the car. Santana's hand was now on my head. Still not sure how she got it all the way up there as her snores continued steadily. Quinn and Kurt burst out laughing at my misfortune. Quinn pulled Santana's hand off me and gave her a hard slap on the ass.
"Motherfucker" Santana slurred jumping out of her sleep long enough to face Quinn and drop her head into Quinn's lap. Quinn gave an exhausted sigh. "There is no hope for this girl. You are aware that we were both awake all night right? It was just you and you aren't the only one tired" she asked. Santana mumbled incoherently as her snores recommenced.
My stomach lurched at the thought of them being awake all night together but I tried not to let it get to me. There's no way this should be doing this to me. I didn't even understand what was going on with me. I've always felt a little protective of Quinn. We weren't even friends at the time and I wanted to protect her.
I turned to look at her. Her head rested on the window, getting the 10am rays of sunshine on her hair. Her eyes closed, breath even. She was beautiful. She looked straight at me, it was as if she knew I was looking at her. It felt like the first time ever that we were seeing each other. Nothing was said, nothing needed to be said. She winked at me, making me blush.
"Rachel. I'm pulling in for a bathroom break and something to eat. Can you drive the next leg?" Kurt asked, making me break my eye contact with Quinn.
"Yes, of course" I turned to look at Quinn but her eyes were once again closed.
More to come soon ;)
