Chapter 16 – Finally High School

Santana walked through the big entrance. Right behind her were Quinn and Brittany. They stopped for a moment and looked around. There were the guys in their sports team uniform, there were the girls in their cheerleaders uniform. There were the group of losers, who looked around afraid. Everything was like Santana had expected it. It was their first day at High School. Finally!

Their first goal was the blackboard. They wanted to sign up for the cheerleader team. Cheerios. It was quiet popular and won a lot of prices. And of course they wanted to be a part of it.

There were several club-lists at the blackboard. Even more at in Junior High. Santana took a quick look over them. Most of them weren't interesting, but one caught her eyes. Glee Club.

Santana looked at the list. There was one name on it. Rachel Berry. Next to the name was a star sticker. Santana frowned. This Berry must be a weird person.

She shook her head slightly and turned back to the Cheerios-list. There were already a lot of names, but it didn't mean that all of them would get into the club. Santana had heard that it was really hard to get into it and that the coach should be really mean. But if you managed to get into the club you would be on the top of the school's popularity list.

"So, what are we waiting for?", Quinn asked, took the pen and wrote her one's, Santana's and Brittany's name down.

"Audition is the day after tomorrow. It shouldn't be that hard to get into the club. We were the top three of the cheerleader at junior high after all", Quinn said optimistic.

Brittany nodded. "We're awesome"

"You know it", Santana smirked.

"What's your first class?", Quinn asked and looked at the piece of paper in her hand.

Santana grabbed her schedule out of her bag. "Math"

"Math", Brittany echoed with a big smile on her face and exchanged high-fives with Santana.

Quinn grumbled. "That's not fair. You're always in the same courses", she crumpled up her schedule and put it back into her pocket, "I have English. See ya"

And with those words she walked away.

"Let's look for our class room. I have no idea where it is", Santana suggested.

"First floor. End of the hallway. Right side", Brittany said without hesitation.

Santana looked at her confused. "That's the location of our math class in Junior high Britt"

"No, I know but maybe it's the same", Brittany explained with a serious face.

Santana smiled to herself. Sometimes her best friend was really adorable.


"Why don't you go into this singing club?", Brittany asked while they were looking for the room, "You love to sing. You were thinking about it right? I saw you glancing at the list"

Santana froze and looked around frightened. "Don't say that", she whispered, while making sure nobody heard her, "Glee club is the lamest thing ever. I would be at the bottom of the school instantly", she explained still in a low voice.

Brittany frowned. Santana knew, that she didn't understand that. But she also knew, that Brittany did understand, that Santana didn't want to talk about it.

"Okay", she simply said.

"Look who's there", they heard a voice behind them.

Santana smirked. She recognized the voice. "Hey Noah", she said and turned around.

"Hey hot stuff", Noah grinned.

Brittany looked confused and touched Santana's arm. Then she shook her head.

Santana ignored her. She had no idea what that was about anyways.

"So you two a finally in high School", Puck continued, "I can show you the hotspots. I know everything about this school. I mean every interesting thing"

Santana smiled. "Good to know. Actually you can really help us. We're looking for our class room", she showed him her schedule.

"Yeah that's in the first floor at the end of the hallway on the right side", he explained.

A huge smile appeared on Brittany's face and she looked at Santana triumphantly.

"Just follow me. I have to go there too", Noah added, "Kind of missed too much of the class last year. Actually I was never there", he added with a proud smile.

As they reached the room Noah turned around. "Here we are. Oh by the way. I'll throw a school-year-start-party tonight and you're invited. That Quinn-girl too. And", he paused for a moment and looked a little bit insecure, "No Matts or other d-bags. I promise!"


The party was a smaller one then last time. Maybe Puck felt really guilty about what happened last time and invited fewer people to keep the overview. Nevertheless Santana swore to herself to never let Brittany out of her eyes. She wouldn't let something like that happened to her again.

Santana looked around. There were Quinn, Brittany, Finn, Mike, Puck, of course, a few boys from the football team and a few girls probably from the Cheerios.

After a while, they were all already a little bit tipsy, someone hold a bottle into the air and yelled "Spin the bottle! Spin the bottle"

Santana rolled her eyes, but for her surprise, Brittany clapped into her hands exited.

"Are you sure you want to play?", Santana asked concerned. She was still worried. Being on Puck's party, kissing some unknown guy. That all could bring back the memories of last time.

But Brittany nodded. "It'll be fun!", she said and smiled.

Santana sighed. At every party they played that stupid game. She didn't see what was so great about it, but Santana didn't want to be a spoilsport, so she sat down next to Brittany. Brittany smiled and grabbed the bottle.

Suddenly Santana's heart began to flatter. She had no idea why, but the fact that there was a small possibility that the bottle could stop in front of her, made her nervous. The memory of the kiss they shared the day after the last party came back into her mind and she stared at the bottle. It seemed like forever until the bottle finally became slower. It passed Santana and she couldn't help but feel disappointed. The bottle was now to slow to make it another whole round back to her. It stopped in front of Mike. Brittany squeaked.

Santana knew that Brittany liked Mike. Not in a romantic way, more in a friend way. But Mike looked a little bit too excited after Santana's fancy.

It was a short kiss and Brittany was the one who ended it.

Santana looked at Brittany to make sure, she was alright, but Brittany just smiled.

"Your turn San!", she grinned.

The bottle spun, stopped and pointed at Noah. He smirked. Santana smirked too. Of all the guys, she wanted the bottle to hit him the most.

He leaned forward, his hand went to her neck and pulled her closer.

"Ready to get your world rocked?", he asked.

Santana rolled her eyes and closed the distance between them.

It was fun to kiss him. He was a good kisser. She even allowed him to enter her mouth with his tongue. After a while they separated again and smiled.

Noah licked his lips and whispered "We should do this again soon Lopez", before he went back to his place.

Santana could feel that Brittany was looking at her, but as she looked back, Brittany lowered her head and acted like she was concentrated on the game.

Santana frowned slightly, but soon her thoughts were back on the bottle too.


There were a few other kisses. Most of the people Santana didn't know.

Quinn had to kiss Finn. He looked like he came before their lips even met. Santana felt really sorry for Quinn.

Mike had to kiss another football player. It was just a peck, because they were afraid of really kissing each other. And even for the peck they needed a eternity for preparation.

Then it was Brittany's turned again. She shoved the bottle and it started to rotate.

Santana couldn't do anything about it, that her heart started to beat faster again. She didn't want that the bottle stopped, pointed at her, but she wanted it. And her heart stopped for a moment, as the bottle did it.

"Oh yeah, hot!", Puck yelled and grinned.

Santana smirked and made a cool face but in the inside she was nervous. She turned to Brittany and looked at her. Brittany looked back insecure.

Santana questioned wordless if she was okay. Brittany nodded slightly and Santana leaned forward an pressed her lips on hers. She could here the guys cheer, but when Brittany sucked softly on her bottom lip, she lost focused of what happened around her.

It was Brittany again who ended the kiss. Santana opened her eyes, but didn't move away, still trapped in some kind of trance.

It was the voice of Puck which brought her back. "That was so hot!"

Santana blushed slightly. "Yeah you can think about that when you'll have fun with your hand tonight, squirrel head", she shot at him to outplay her embarrassment.

And as Puck opened his mouth she added "Dream on", because she knew he wanted to make some filthy comment about having fun with something else than his hand.

Puck smirked and let it go.


The game went on but Brittany seemed to be lost in thoughts.

"You alright?", Santana asked.

Brittany looked up to her and smiled slightly. But Santana could see that something was on her mind.

"Yeah..it's just...you know...you said, we can't kiss...", Brittany whispered and Santana could hear that she was very confused.

Santana laughed relieved. The way Brittany looked at her was too cute. Her eyes were full of confusion and excitement at the same time. Santana leaned towards Britt's ear and whispered huskily. "Okay, new rule. When we're at a party and we play spin the bottle, we can kiss"

She turned up again and looked back into these blue eyes in front of her. It was probably the alcohol, which let her do the next thing, but her heart began to rush, as the bent over a second time and added. "Or when we're alone and at home"
