Two days later, Rachel walked into Santana's room through the garage, having been let in by Mrs. Lopez. She had wanted to surprise her girlfriend and take her to lunch. She had spent an hour straightening and styling her hair and choosing an outfit (jeans and a top that Rachel knew for a fact that Santana loved with the Uug boots Santana had bought her when they were in New York). However, she immediately knew her plans were going to change when she found Santana (wearing sweatpants and tank top) sitting in a recliner that was in front of a TV on the far side of Santana's large garage apartment. It seemed as though the girl was playing a video game, but Rachel couldn't tell which video game she was playing. It sounded like an old one, but sh couln't be certain. "Ha! Take that you stupid fucking mushroom thingy! Suck it!" Santana yelled. Rachel held back her laughter and snuck up behind her girlfriend. She covered the Latina's eyes with one of her hands. "What the fuck?" Santana exclaimed. Rachel laughed and stole the controller with her free hand (pausing the game momentarily so she didn't mess up the Latina's game). "Rae? Is that you?" Santana asked. Rather than answer her girlfriend, Rachel quickly jumped into Santana's lap, causing the girl to grunt in pain. "Ow. Damn Rachel, that hurt!" Santana said.
"Hey! I'm not that heavy!" Rachel said as she unpaused the game, settled in between Santana's legs, and started playing Super Mario.
"You could have messed up my game." Santana said accusingly. Rachel nodded.
"You know, you're right, San. You are absolutely right. I could have, but I didn't. And you love me, so shut up." Rachel said as she watched the screen.
"Why are you sitting on me?" Santana asked as she gently poked Rachel's head repeatedly. Rachel smiled, paused the game, and leaned down to kiss Santana deeply.
"Hi." Rachel said, smiling at her girlfriend as she pulled away.
"Hi. You look hot." Santana said, causing Rachel to grin. Santana started to speak again, but her phone rang.

"Hold on." she said to Rachel.
Incoming Call
Quinn
"Hello?"
"San? Do you and Rachel want to hang out with us? Don't worry, Britt is out of town this weekend." Quinn said.
"Well, I would, but I have a diva on top of me." Santana said.
"... okay I didn't need to know that." Quinn said. Santana laughed.
"Not what I meant. She decided to sit on me and steal my controller. You know, she weighs more than she looks." Santana said. Quinn laughed and Rachel reached back to hit her girlfriend on the shoulder, but missed and hit her in the face. "Ow. Rae!" Santana said. Rachel and Quinn laughed.
"You deserved it." Rachel said.
"Okay, you two have fun... we can all hang out next time." Quinn said.
"Definitely. Later Q." Santana said, hanging up the phone and turning to Rachel. "Now I'm going to ask you again. Why are you sitting on me?" Santana asked. Rachel smirked and kissed her quickly before returning to the game.
"Because I had decided to surprise my favorite and my best girlfriend-" Rachel was cut off.
"I better be your only girlfriend, little girl." Santana said. Rachel smiled. 'This is where I belong forever.' Rachel thought, as she nodded.
"You know its only you that's on my mind." Rachel said. Santana smiled softly.
"Good. That's how it should be. You were saying?" she prompted. Rachel nodded.
"Right. I was going to surprise my favoritest and my bestest girl in the whole wide world and take her to lunch, but two things changed my mind." Rachel said.
"And they would be?" Santana asked.
"First, your outfit just doesn't work for going out in public, sweetie." Rachel said, smirking. Santana rolled her eyes.
"Just get to the second thing, pretty girl." Santana said.
"Well, then I decided that I wanted to play your super cool Nintendo 64!" Rachel said, teasing her girlfriend. Santana rolled her eyes as she put her arms went around Rachel's waist. "You always have the coolest stuff, San!" Rachel continued with a smirk.
"Whatever. You can hate all you want, but I can be a nerd at times." Santana said. Rachel smiled and leaned into her girlfriend. Resting her chin on Rachel's shoulder, Santana sighed contently. 'This is where I belong forever.' Santana thought, smiling at her girlfriend's face, which was full of concentration. "And you're the one who's playing the 'super cool'" - Santana mocked Rachel's voice - "Nintendo 64, so that makes you just as nerdy as me." Santana said. Rachel rolled her eyes.
"You know, you sure go to a lot of trouble to protect your badass reputation. I mean, you tell people you're from a sketchy - scratch that. You tell people you're from the sketchiest part of town, you hide the fact that you spend your weekends playing video games from the '90s... I didn't even know you wore glasses." Rachel said, noticing for the first time that the Latina was in fact, wearing glasses.
"I usually wear contacts, but I ran out of solution and they were hurting my eyes so I took them out and put my glasses on." Santana explained.
"Oh and why do you have two TVs in here?" Rachel asked.
"This one is for when I have friends over. The one by my bed is for when Alicia and I want to watch movies, or when Britt, Q, and I used to have sleep overs in here or - most recently - when I want to cuddle with my incredible girlfriend." Santana said, kissing Rachel's cheek.
"Aw... baby..." Rachel said, completely forgetting about the game and turning around with a huge smile on her face. Santana started to kiss Rachel, but the sight of Mario dying stopped her.
"Rae!" Santana yelled. Rachel whipped around to see the little man dying. She turned around with sheepish grin.
"I love you?" she said. Santana glared at her, causing the girl to look down. "I'm sorry." she whispered. Instantly feeling bad, Santana lifted the girl's chin up and softly kissed her.
"Its okay, Rae." Santana whispered. Rachel looked up with a smile. Santana chuckled and took the controller back from her girlfriend. "So... what were you saying about not messing up my game?" Santana teased as she started from her check point, which wasn't very far from where she'd been. Rachel rolled her eyes as she watched her girlfriend expertly get back to where she'd been when Rachel had walked in. The diva settled for simply watching the taller brunette, enjoying the feeling of Santana's arms around her while she played. She decided to quietly sing, knowing that made Santana happy no matter what. Santana instantly started smiling.
My outsides are cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I've tried different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
I'm just trippin'
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
You can fix your nose if he says so
You can buy all the make-up that M.A.C. can make
But if you can't look inside you
Find out who am I to
Be in a position to make me feel so damn unpretty
"I love you." Santana whispered in between levels. Rachel smiled.
"I love you too." she replied, leaning deeper into the embrace, grinning as Santana kissed her cheek, and closing her eyes to fall asleep in her girlfriend's arms. 'Yea. This is definitely where I belong.' Both girls thought.
