Sitting in the car I looked out the window," So, are you going to tell me where we are going San" I asked with my biggest smile.
Santana just shook her head as she pulled up to a random park," Nope, then it wouldn't be a surprise Britt. Just, trust me okay you are going to have a lot of fun" she said with a smile that spread from ear to ear.
Once the car stopped she came around to my side of the car and opened the door handing me a bag of bread," Here you are going to need this."
I looked at her puzzled," Why do I need a loaf of bread. We just had breakfast and I'm pretty sure that I can't eat all this bread."
The Latina just smiled grabbing my hand and pulling me towards the park," Just trust me Britt Britt."
Nodding I followed her towards the park and sat on the bench next to her with the bread in one hand and her hand in my other. Smiling I looked around and noticed that no human life was here but I mean who would it was a Saturday morning.
I closed my eyes a little tired when suddenly I heard a faint sound. Opening my eyes I looked around and noticed we were at a duck pond. Biting my lip I giggled excited," You took me to feed the duckies. How did you know that this was one of my favorite things to do" I asked looking at her.
Santana took a slice of bread breaking it into pieces before answering me," You talk a lot when you sleep Britt, like a lot. I learned a lot about you actually and I started to take notes."
Giggling I smiled," You're the first person who actually listens when I sleep. Normally, everyone just ignores my mumbles."
"Now why would I do a thing like that" she said before throwing a piece of bread at me.
Taking so bread I started to run away chasing the ducks," Here you go duckies, here are you hungry" I asked bending down looking at a baby duck.
Ripping apart the bread I left a trail so they could follow me around the park where ever I went. Santana just sat at the bench smiling and laughing as she watched me lead around my group of duckies behind me.
I had them following me around for practically an hour before Santana came up to me," Hey Britt Britt."
I looked at her," Is it time to go already? I dont want to leave little spot and fluffy need me" I said pointing down towards the two duckies that hadn't left my side all day.
Santana just laughed," You really are an animal lover. We'll come back tonight and you can say goodnight to them okay" she said grabbing my hand.
Sighing I gave her a puppy dog pout," Find, but you promise we'll come back when we are done" I asked.
Nodding she pulled me into a hug as she held my waist and I wrapped my arms around her neck," I'd never lie to you Britt Britt now, lets go we still have a lot to do."
The next part of our date was a complete mystery and it felt like forever. I was still so tired from last night I had fallen asleep in the car and when I woke up I had a blindfold on.
"San, why are my eyes covered" I asked reaching for the bandana to take it off.
Before I could remove it she grabbed my hand," Nope, you aren't allowed to take it off. This is a big surprise and I know once you open your eyes you'll know where we are and I want you to be surprised when we get there."
Sighing I held her hand and the car started to slow down. Santana had the music blaring so I could barely hear what she was talking about and to whom. The most I got out was," Welcome to... that will be 18 dollars please."
The car finally stopped and I felt Santana grab my hand and pull me out," Lets go Britt Britt we are almost there."
Taking her hand I followed her as best as I could," You know if you don't direct me on where to go i'll probably end up running into a car or better yet a car will hit me. Are you trying to kill me Sanny" I asked squeezing her hand.
I couldn't see Santana but I could tell by her voice that she was smiling," You are not going to die Britt, we are almost there just hold my hand."
It seriously felt like we were walking for forever until Santana told me to sit down, to not move and most importantly not remove my bandana. Frustrated I agreed to her terms as I sat there alone waiting for her to return. In the near distance I could hear little kids excited and skipping around with their parents, as well as teenagers and their buddies trying to figure out what food fey wanted to eat. Sighing I sat there in silence waiting for Santana to return.
After about 10 minutes I felt someone grab my hand. The touch was soft and soothing," Britt come on we are almost there I promise you can take off your blindfold in about five minutes."
Sighing I stood up as I let her drag me towards wherever we were going," I hate surprises why did you have to make this a surprise. I'm like dying to know where I am."
As we approached where we were headed I could hear a familiar sound in the background," Wait I know this sound" I said smiling.
Before I knew it Santana had her hands on my hips pushing me in the direction we needed to go. I could hear families in the background and music playing from the speakers that were all around the place we were standing.
Santana stopped," Alright Britt you ready?"
I nodded as she removed the blindfold and my eyes started to adjust to the brightness of our surroundings. Taking in a deep breath I could smell the Carmel hazelnut that was pumped throughout the park. I looked around and in front of me was the train and the tunnels leading you towards main street.
"You.. you didn't" I gasped looking around.
Smiling Santana smiled," It your favorite place right?"
Giggling I pulled her in for a hug," You are amazing Sanny! I can't believe you decided to take me to Disneyland for our first date."
Looking at Santana I could tell that she was excited to make me so happy. I rarely got to go to Disneyland because of how expensive it was and having an annual pass was out of the question because I was a college student struggling as it was. I honestly just didn't understand how she knew me so well. It's like she me better than anyone else and I just met the girl.
Giggling I looked at Santana," Alright so we have to go on Matterhorn, Space, Indie, Peter Pan, Thunder, Tea party, Haunted Mansion, Pirates..." I said naming all the rides I could think of.
"Slow down Honey we have all day till it closes. We can go on anything you want. What ride are we going on first" she asked smiling back at me.
Biting my lip I thought for a moment," Indie!"
Santana just shook her head," Okay sweetie lead the way."
Making my way through the crowd I started to lead the way swerving in and out through couples and families. Finally when we made I looked at her," The line doesn't seem that long. Do you mind waiting for snout thirty minutes" I asked smiling.
Looking back at me she took my hand and led me towards the stand by line," Thirty minutes is nothing compared to the 75 my cousin made me wait to see Rapunzel" she said.
Cocking my head to the side I looked back at her as we followed the people in front of us," Oh my god can we see characters? In love belle, Ariel, Tinkerbelle, fawn, iridessa, silver mist, tiger, Mickey and Minnie. Oh Sanny if we see them could we take a picture with them" I pleaded like a little girl.
Smiling she squeezed my hand," I would do anything for you Britt Britt."
Giggling I wrapped my arms around her in a big hug," You are amazing. Let's just say this is the best date ever! I still don't know how you knew I was such a big Disney nerd but you have been surprising me all day."
Santana licked her lips before hugging me back," Britt I know a lot more about you than you think."
Looking at her I looked puzzled," No, I bet you don't know my favorite color" I asked smiling back with a cheeky grin.
"You're favorite color is Lime green and Orange but not together but you look best in blue because it brings out your eyes" she said cockily looking back at me.
"Keep em coming Britt" she said egging me on.
"Hmm" I thought thinking of a question, "Alright well that was an easy one! What about my favorite bug?"
Smiling Santana shook her head," Ladybug."
Frazzled I looked at her with astonishment," What are you? Have we met before? Omg did I lose my memory and we secretly were friends in the past?"
Santana laughed," No i'm just really observant and happen to be in the right place at the right time. You always come to explosion with your Ladybug back pack and every once in a while its Tigger which just so happens to be your favorite character. The green and orange I know because you complimented a guy with a green tie which happened to be Puck my step brother. Then one day the wristbands at explosion were orange and you freaked out because it was the first time we had that color and you said it was your favorite."
I looked at Santana and smiled," You've been watching me too?"
She giggled," Yea, when I first saw you a couple months ago I couldn't keep my eyes off you. You were wearing red pants and black shirt with white vans and your hair up in a bun. You looked beautiful and every Friday I looked for you and just watched how you came to life."
I looked at her in shock,"I had no idea you were watching me. I thought you had no idea who I was to be honest" I said walking forward.
"Yep well I was. That comic in my living room was of you the first time I saw you. You were sitting down and dancing to the beat by yourself and I honestly wasn't paying attention to my lead because you caught my eye" she said with sincerity.
Smiling I looked at her," What made you change your mind this Friday" I asked.
Santana took a while before she answered calmly," Honestly, I have no idea. I saw you with Quinn and I might have gotten a little jealous. You were in my class which made it a little bit easier to stomach because I had to teach. I really just decided to jump and if I landed on my face then well at least intried."
Hearing her speak made chills run down my back, she really was perfect," Well i'm glad you decided to do something" I said with a cheeky smile.
The line started to progress forward and we were about five minutes away from the entrance of the ride. Exhaling slowly I pulled Santana towards the front of the ride requesting that we sat in the front. The ride attendant smiled letting us pass her towards the number one row.
"So, is this your favorite ride" the ebony haired girl asked walking up behind me and placing her hands on my hips.
Having Santana stand behind me was so calming like I belonged in her arms and her arms fireworkswere meant to be wrapped around me. I've never felt more comfortable with someone ever!
Turning my head I looked into her eyes," You'll just have to find out now wont you."
Santana smirked leaning in close to me and I honestly thought we were going to kiss because her lips were inches from mine.
Instead she softly spoke," I guess I will."
The rest of the day was pretty much the same. I led Santana around the park getting her practically on every ride I could imagine. I even convinced her to go on the tea cups ride a bunch of times. I honestly blame her for that one she bought me Goofy's sour balls and a lollipop. I was on a sugar high and really wanted to go on the tea cups.
The day was slowly turned to night and it seemed as if we were getting more comfortable with each other. She would hold my hand longer and wrap her arms around my waist like we were a couple but we never kissed.
It was so nerve racking because we had come close so many times I honestly thought that she didn't want to because every time we came close she pulled away.
The end of our day concluded with watching Fantasmic and the fireworks. It was only about nine thirty but we were both exhausted. I practically ran Santana to the ground because I was running around and calculating the fastest route to and from rides.
Standing there with Santana arms wrapped around my waist I sighed enjoying how it felt to be in that moment. I didn't want the day to end it was honestly the best day I had ever had in a really long time. I felt so comfortable with her I just couldn't explain why its like we fit together, like a puzzle.
I looked up into her chocolate brown eyes smiling and admiring her features as she watched the fireworks. Santana smiled and looked down at me before leaning in and closing the gap between us. When our lips touched it was as if time had stopped. They were so soft and moist and I didn't want this feeling to go away. I felt safe here in Santana's arms and when we kissed it was like I found my home.
When we pulled away she smiled and pecked my lips shortly before looking back at the fireworks. Sighing I leaned back into her closing my eyes as I thought to myself.
The next thing I remember was my phone buzzing and when I looked down I noticed I had like 25 missed text messages all from Quinn.
Quinn: Britt wtf are you?
Quinn: Seriously are you ignoring me?
Quinn: You never came home?
Quinn: I'm worried
Quinn: Just got a call from Puck, he said that Santana didn't come in to work today
Quinn: Did you go home with her?
Quinn: Why aren't you answering me?
Quinn: Ugh!
Quinn: Can you at least tell me you are
Laughing I looked at my phone reading her messages. She was so noseyThank you sometimes but I mean she was my best friend and it wasn't in my character to not come home on a Friday night. So, I quickly responded and waited for her reply.
Britt: Hey calm down. Yes I went home with Santana last night because I was too tired and didn't want her to have to drive me home. As of right now we are at Disneyland. I'm enjoying myself so leave me be!
Britt: I love you Quinn and i'll tell you about it later. I promise.
Quinn: Fine, i'll grill you when you get home. I'm out with puck anyways
Britt: Puck? Really... no more David?
Quinn: hey, what can I say dancers have an effect on me. Yes, no more David
Britt: thank you baby Jesus! Love you talk to you soon
I put my phone away and continued to watch the fireworks. We were standing in front of the castle and it was so beautiful i would never forget this night. Watching the fireworks I felt Santana pull away so I turned and looked at her," Hey,what's wrong San" I asked surprised at our sudden release.
Santana smiled then kneeled on her knee," Now, this isn't a marriage proposal Brittany but I do care about you. I want to get to know you and be there for you through the ups and the downs. I want to be there when you graduate and when you fail a class. I want to get to know you better so, Brittany S. Pierce would you do the honor of being my girlfriend."
I looked at her in complete shock. Here she was kneeling on one knee with a little black box and a small ring inside. It wasn't big but it was the ring inhad pointed put at the store earlier. There were two in the box with plain silver bands and a solid Mickey encrusted in diamonds in the middle.
I gulped looking at her,"Y-es" I said barely able to speak
Santana took my hand placing the simple band on my ring finger. I looked at her confused and she smiled," So, everyone knows you are taken" she spoke.
Sighing I kissed her softly pulling her into a deep hug and when we pulled away I looked around and saw people clapping and cheering.
"Kiss, kiss, kiss" the crowd cheered.
Smiling I looked at Santana before pulling her into a passionate kiss. It was as if it was the last time our lips were going to touch. I could feel her eagerness as her tongue asked for entrance and I opened my mouth a little larger to grant it. Before it got too intense Santana pulled away and peck my lips softly.
"Best date ever! You are the best girlfriend ever" i said grabbing her hand and watching the rest of the fireworks.
