So like I said last chapter actually physically pained me to write but last Saturday when I became obsessed with this song, I just had to write it. As the title suggests this has the song Payphone by Maroon Five in it. It is like the best song ever, well second to Brittana's version of I wanna Dance With Somebody!
Brittany walked into the chorus room alone; almost everyone was in their normal seats. She glanced at Santana who is sitting in her normal seat in the back. Instead Brittany goes to the opposite side of the room and sits in the front row next to Mercedes.
A couple of people looked between the two cheerleaders, they had always been together and once they came out as couple they rarely left each other's sides. Before anyone could say anything, Mr. Schuester walked in.
"Mr. Schue." Brittany stuck her hand up a little unsurely, she hadn't volunteered to sing a song in a while and she was a little nervous.
"Yes Brittany?"
"I have a song I would like to sing." The chorus teacher nodded and Brittany made her way to the center of the room. As soon as she began to sing, the glee clubbers looked at one another, trying to confirm their suspicions.
I'M AT A PAYPHONE TRYING TO CALL HOME
ALL OF MY CHANGE I'VE SPENT ON YOU
WHERE HAVE THE TIMES GONE
BABY IT'S ALL WRONG,
WHERE ARE THE PLANS WE MADE FOR TWO
YEAH, I, I KNOW IT'S HARD TO REMEMBER
THE PEOPLE WE USED TO BE
IT'S EVEN HARDER TO PICTURE
THAT YOU'RE NOT HERE NEXT TO ME
YOU SAID IT'S TOO LATE TO MAKE IT
BUT IS IT TOO LATE TO TRY?
AND IN THAT TIME THAT YOU WASTED
ALL OF OUR BRIDGES BURNED DOWN
I'VE WASTED MY NIGHTS
YOU TURNED OUT THE LIGHTS
NOW I'M PARALYZED
STILL STUCKED IN THAT TIME WHEN WE CALLED IT LOVE
BUT EVEN THE SUN SETS IN PARADISE
I'M AT A PAYPHONE TRYING TO CALL HOME
ALL OF MY CHANGE I'VE SPENT ON YOU
WHERE HAVE THE TIMES GONE BABY
IT'S ALL WRONG, WHERE ARE THE PLANS WE MADE FOR TWO
IF HAPPY EVER AFTER DID EXIST
I WOULD STILL BE HOLDING YOU LIKE THIS
ALL THOSE FAIRYTALES ARE FULL OF SHIT
ONE MORE FUCKING LOVE SONG I'LL BE SICK
YOU TURNED YOUR BACK ON TOMORROW
CAUSE YOU FORGOT YESTERDAY
I GAVE YOU MY LOVE TO BORROW
BUT YOU JUST GAVE IT AWAY
YOU CAN'T EXPECT ME TO BE FINE
I DON'T EXPECT YOU TO CARE
I KNOW I SAID IT BEFORE
BUT ALL OF OUR BRIDGES BURNED DOWN
I'VE WASTED MY NIGHTS
YOU TURNED OUT THE LIGHTS
NOW I'M PARALYZED
STILL STUCKED IN THAT TIME WHEN WE CALLED IT LOVE
BUT EVEN THE SUN SETS IN PARADISE
I'M AT A PAYPHONE TRYING TO CALL HOME
ALL OF MY CHANGE I'VE SPENT ON YOU
WHERE HAVE THE TIMES GONE BABY
IT'S ALL WRONG, WHERE ARE THE PLANS WE MADE FOR TWO
IF HAPPY EVER AFTER DID EXIST
I WOULD STILL BE HOLDING YOU LIKE THIS
AND ALL THOSE FAIRYTALES ARE FULL OF SHIT
ONE MORE FUCKING LOVE SONG I'LL BE SICK
NOW I'M AT A PAYPHONE
MAN FUCK THAT SHIT
I'LL BE OUT SPENDING ALL THIS MONEY WHILE YOU SITTING ROUND
WONDERING WHY IT WASN'T YOU WHO CAME UP FROM NOTHING
MADE IT FROM THE BOTTOM
NOW WHEN YOU SEE ME I'M STUNNING
AND ALL OF MY CARS START WITH THE PUSH UP A BUTTON
TELLING ME THE CHANCES I BLEW UP OR WHATEVER YOU CALL IT
SWITCHED THE NUMBER TO MY PHONE
SO YOU NEVER COULD CALL IT
DON'T NEED MY NAME ON MY SHOW
YOU CAN TELL IT I'M BALLIN'
SWISH, WHAT A SHAME COULD HAVE GOT PICKED
HAD A REALLY GOOD GAME BUT YOU MISSED YOUR LAST SHOT
SO YOU TALK ABOUT WHO YOU SEE AT THE TOP
OR WHAT YOU COULD'VE SAW
BUT SAD TO SAY IT'S OVER FOR
PHANTOM PULLED UP VALET OPEN DOORS
WIZ LIKE GO AWAY, GOT WHAT YOU WAS LOOKING FOR
NOW ASK ME WHO THEY WANT
SO YOU CAN GO AND TAKE THAT LITTLE PIECE OF SHIT WITH YOU
I'M AT A PAYPHONE TRYING TO CALL HOME
ALL OF MY CHANGE I'VE SPENT ON YOU
WHERE HAVE THE TIMES GONE BABY
IT'S ALL WRONG, WHERE ARE THE PLANS WE MADE FOR TWO
IF HAPPY EVER AFTER DID EXIST
I WOULD STILL BE HOLDING YOU LIKE THIS
AND ALL THOSE FAIRYTALES ARE FULL OF SHIT
ONE MORE FUCKING LOVE SONG I'LL BE SICK
NOW I'M AT A PAYPHONE
Brittany had tears in her eyes, she had been trying to look at Santana but it was too hard for her to look at her ex-girlfriend. So instead she looked at a spot of the floor as she finished the last line.
I have to go." Santana said as she quickly walked out of the chorus room, her eyes watering as well. Mercedes and Quinn both stood up, Mercedes went to the taller blonde and gave her a hug, while Quinn followed quickly behind in Santana's footsteps.
"Santana!" Quinn called down the hallway, following the Latina as she walked quickly away from the chorus room. Santana glanced over and stopped, allowing the blonde to catch up to her. "What's going on?"
"I broke up with Brittany."Santana said wiping her eyes as more tears began to fall down from her eyes.
"Why?" Santana sunk down onto the ground, holding her knees. Quinn crouched down so that they were at the same level.
"I don't know, we got into this big fight and then I said we should take a break, which turned into us breaking up." Quinn rubbed Santana's back. "God, I miss her so much."
"Well she clearly misses you too. I mean she just rapped for you." Quinn added in a slight joking around tone.
Santana smiled a little. "I don't know, I said a bunch of stuff that I am not proud of. I doubt she will take me back. I mean you hear the song 'the sun sets in paradise'. I think that means we are done."
"Did you not hear the rest of the song? 'If happy ever afters did exist, I would still be holding you.' 'hard to picture that you're not here with me'. She would totally take you back. She loves you more than anyone else, and I know that you love her back just as much."
"I know. I just…" Santana started but couldn't finish.
"Just suck up your pride right now." Quinn said, slightly annoyed at the Latina.
"That's not what this is about." Santana looked at her knees. "It's just, I am afraid."
"Afraid of what?" Her voice became much more sympathetic.
"Of fucking things up again." She looked back at the light green eyes. "Look you know how terrible I am at this stuff and I am afraid that if we get back together, we will go through life and then I will fuck it all up and hurt her even more."
"You are not as bad as you think you are, Santana. Sure we all joke around about how you are secretly Satan, but we all still love you and we know that you could never really screw things up with Brittany. When you came out sure you got bullied a little, but you were the happiest we had ever seen you, because you were with Brittany, the love of your life."
Santana didn't say anything. "Thanks Quinn." The blonde wrapped Santana in a hug. "Now I have to figure out how to get her to listen to me. I have to figure out how to apologize."
"I am sure you will be fine."
"Wow, Britt has been so many of my firsts. I'd do anything for her."
"You can just start with that; make sure she knows how much you love her." Santana nodded. "If you need ideas, you can always sing her a song."
"No. I am not Berry. I can get emotions out without using someone else's words."
"Like what Brittany just did for you?"
Santana shook her head. "No, Brittany rarely does that. Berry seems to do it every other week."
Quinn let out a small chuckle. "Well whatever you do, I am sure you will be fine."
Okay so next chapter has some fluff! Thanks for reading and all of the favorites, it really means a lot.
