Let's all say goodbye to Quinn.


Quinn takes her index and thumb finger to Santana's tan face and wipes away the tears cascading down her cheeks. "Santana, this isn't goodbye." She smiles but fights the tears. "You and Brittany are still my number one girls no matter where I go!" She hugs the weeping Latina.

"But, Q! I haven't been away from you for more than a few hours for the past few years!" She slumps against the blonde and cries even more.

Quinn rolls her eyes and pushes the Latina up. "Shut up! You have another beautiful blonde waiting for you." She looks at Brittany and back to Santana. "Get over yourself and stop crying!" She shakes her head and laughs. "If anything, I should be the one mourning." She raises her eyebrow.

"I'll take care of her before she leaves, Q. I promise." Brittany walks behind Santana and holds her waist in a tight hug. "I am glad to see you and I shall see more of you on T.V." She smiles weakly as she wipes a tear away from the corner of her eye.

Santana wipes her tears and starts singing one of their favorite songs.

Sunday morning, rain is fallin'
Steal some covers
Share some skin
Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
You twist to fit the mold that I am in

Santana frees herself from Brittany's embrace and holds Quinn hand, looking at her with teary eyes and a heavy, breaking heart.

But things just get so crazy
Livin' life gets hard to do
But I'd gladly hit the road
Get up and go if I knew
That someday it will lead me back to you
That someday it'll lead me back to you

Santana sang out as she wipes more of her tears and hugs her best friend goodbye. "Change the world and don't be a stranger."

"Only if you'd never stop being a bitch." Quinn smiles big and hugs her two best friends. "Well…" She sighs heavily and starts singing.

All my bags are packed
I'm ready to go

Quinn picks up her luggage imitating the lyrics.

I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

She waves her hand in a goodbye motion.

But the dawn is breakin'
Its early morn
The taxis waitin'
He's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome
I could die

She smiles sadly and sighs before singing again.

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Quinn kisses her two best friends on the cheeks and walks away. She starts crying but doesn't show it to her friends.

"We love you very much, Quinn!" Brittany yells out as her voice echoes through LAX.

From a distance, Quinn turns around and a smile is painted on her face. Brittany and Santana don't see the tears, but just smile back. She yells back, "Get back together and make me happy! Make yourselves happy. I'll see you at your guys's wedding!" She walks through the security gate and disappears.

Brittany and Santana blush at the statement and eye each other a bit awkwardly. The tears have subsides. Leave it to Quinn to ruin all perfect moments that be cherished.

"So." Santana is the first one to speak. "May you take me home?" She looks at Brittany and shrugs her shoulders.

Brittany grabs Santana's arm and locks them together while playing the gentleman. "Hey, wanna grab dinner? I'm hungry." Her stomach growls.

Santana laughs. "Yeah, what do you feel like eating?" She checks her watch. "It's barely going to be six anyways."

"I really want some pho and buns and spring roll and more pho." Brittany pushes Santana through the crowd of people waiting for the elevator and walks to her car. She opens and closes the door for Santana. She misses and loves Quinn and all, but she's misses Santana even more. She wants to make the best of things with the time they have left.

"I'm paying then, okay?" Santana suggests.

"I'm the one taking you out to dinner, not you!" She smiles and looks at Santana. "Besides, I'm the one asking for a date."

Santana blushes at the word. "Date..?"

"Yes." Brittany says in confidence. She masks her blushing with a smile and pride.

"That would be lovely…" Santana gulps and looks outside the window where rain is playfully splattering. A date with Brittany… Oh dear lord, please let this be a great dinner.


"So, Santana." Brittany intertwines her fingers together and places her chin on the top of her hands. "When are you going to Europe?" She needs to know.

"Well, let's see…" She thinks in her mind. "I still have two more months left." She smiles and quickly raises the menu between them trying to escape the blue eyes.

Brittany just smiles and sighs. Two months is a long ways, but then again two is an awfully small number.

"Hey, Britt Britt?" Santana puts the menu down and looks at Santana with a pout. "I haven't really had Vietnamese food before…" She admits.

Brittany smiles and grabs Santana's left hand across their table. "I'll order for you!" She then intertwines their fingers together. The lacing is perfect. Their hands are like puzzle. Brittany feels her heart beat.

Santana feels her heart beat and looks into the ocean eyes she loves submerging in.

"May I take your order?" The waitress asks looking down at their fingers. She didn't look uncomfortable. She just smiled very sweetly.

"May we have five spring rolls, four pork buns, and two large bowls of your special pho please?" She looks at Santana and nods her head.

"Sounds perfect, Britt." She smiles genuinely. "Oh, may we also have water and hot tea please?"

"Of course. I am Chi and I shall be serving you for tonight." She walks away and yells out their order in Vietnamese.

For a few minutes, they stared at each other. They looked at every facial feature, curves of the body and just the love they had for one other. It is undeclared but is known and felt strongly. The few fleeting and romantic stares and glances they shared seem to expand to hours, days, months, even years for loss time.

Brittany rubs Santana's hand with her thumb, stroking sweet touches onto velvet, sun kissed skin. She smiles and can't look away from the girl who has always had her heart.

Santana's heart is practically jumping out of its ribcage. Her love for Brittany can't be contained. She just stares back as lovingly as Brittany is. The way her hand is holding tightly onto Brittany's screams out, "I will never let you go again."

The interlocking of their eyes created an intense atmosphere between them. Intense, SEXUAL atmosphere. Their smiles disappeared and only hitch breathing escaped their lips. Their eyes no longer played sweet innocence, but hunger can be seen. They needed to feel each other and their hearts.

Just as Santana opens her mouth to say something their waitress, Chi, comes back with their ordered drinks.

Santana sighs and looks at Brittany with loving eyes again.

"I come back with your order." The waitress goes to the counter and gets their spring rolls, pork buns, and large special pho. "Here you go and enjoy." She walks away smiling at the two girls.

"Holy crap, Brittany. This is a lot!" Santana stares at the healthy amount of food on the table.

Brittany shrugs and smiles brightly, "Technically, this food is healthy." She inhales the sweet and oriental smell. "Don't worry we get two spring rolls each and I get three pork buns and you get two."

"Wait, that's not fair!" Santana frowns playfully.

"I eat more than you!" She laughs but then blushes.

Santana looks at the blonde curiously and blushes herself. Eat is a very sexual word. She has to break the tension. "So, where should I start..?" She shakes of her blushing moment and looks at the blonde.

"Oh, um, try the spring rolls. They're so fresh and delicious! Dip it on the sauce!" The blonde responds almost too quickly.

Santana dips the transparent wrap into a brown murky sauce and takes a bite. "Oh wow." Her mouth is full so she had to cover her mouth. "That's crunchy and delicious. Is that peanut sauce?" She's having a mouthgasm at the moment.

They start eating their food first eating the spring rolls and then of to devour the pork buns.

"These are so cute." Santana looks at the little puff of white bread. "Is the pork inside?"

Brittany nods her head in delight of eating her second pork bun in a matter of seconds. "Seriously San, just eat and you will love. Let the food speak for you!" She winks at the Latina.

Santana smiles and takes a mouthful of white, fluffy bread with brown sweet and pungent pork into her mouth. "MMMmmmm!" Santana moans out.

The whole restaurant full of Vietnamese people stop eating their food and look at the Latina with curious yet friendly eyes.

Santana realizes what she does and swallows the pork bun in her mouth. She sits still for a few seconds and looks around blushing. She stands up and bows her head and saying, "I'm sorry." She does it several times and sits back down embarrassed.

Brittany just chuckles on the outside but is dying of laughter on the inside. "It's her first time eating Viet food!" She yells out to the restaurant. "She loves it!"

One man that right next to Santana taps her on the shoulder. "No sorry. Food good, yes?" He has a thick Vietnamese accent but can be understood. He rubs his stomach and goes, "Mmmmm!" And he gives two thumbs up.

"It is very appreciated in Vietnam and in Vietnamese culture to slurp your food. Going 'Mmmm' is very good too. Means food is very good!" Chi said from behind talking to Santana. "It's good sign for us!"

Chi and the man nod, smile and talk to each other in Vietnamese that seems as if they were congratulating one another on their cuisine.

The restaurant cheers in approval and smiles at the Latina before they go back to their dinner and conversations.

"Oh my god!" Santana puts her head on her hand and laughs. "That was embarrassing!"

"Hey, at least you're appreciated here!" Brittany finishes her third pork bun and watches Santana eat.

"Brittany!" Santana playfully slaps Brittany's hand pulling away from their hand hold. "Stop watching me, I'm trying to eat my delicious Vietnamese food in peace."

Brittany pouts at her lonely hand and stares at Santana with puppy dog eyes.

Santana rolls her eyes and smiles. She interlaces their fingers once more and eats the rest of her pork buns.

"Britt, I'm kind of full…" Santana burps a little burp and blushes. "Sorry."

"Bullshit!" She whispers out. "You're eating everything! I am paying for this!" She starts putting greens and sprouts on Santana's bowl. She even added hot pepper sauce with the seeds. "Eat! It's very delicious."

Santana sighs and drinks warm aromatic tea. "I'm ready." She copies Brittany and picks up the bowl and chopsticks.

Brittany grabs greens, sprouts, noodle, chicken and shrimp with her chopsticks and stuffs her mouth making loud slurp noises and splattering the soup everywhere. "Ah! That hits the spot. Try!" She looks at Santana.

Santana brings the bowl near her chin and uses her chopsticks to grab noodles, shrimp and greens. She blows on it for a second just to make sure she doesn't burn her tongue and puts it in her mouth. "Oh my Mmmm!" She did it again. The restaurant looks at her with approval before going back to their own bowls and slurp away.

"Good huh?" Brittany nods.

"Good? Delicious!" Santana takes another mouthful this time slurping a lot more slurping and moaning out pure mouthgasm goodness. It's fresh, it's crunchy, it's soft, it's hot, it's delicious and Santana can totally finish this.


Brittany and Santana finish their noodles and all the good stuff. They pick up their bowls and clink their bowls together in toast for Santana's first time eating Vietnamese food before drinking the soup in one gulp.

"Damn, that was good!" Santana breathes out and rubs her belly. "I am definitely full." She looks at Brittany lovingly. "Thank you."

"I'll pay now and let's get outta here!" She calls Chi and gives her card. "Hey, can I see your place..?" She asks carefully. "I haven't seen it, so yeah…" That really wasn't the reason but it's legit.

"My place?" Santana sits up abruptly. She's embarrassed to let Brittany see it. There is nothing there but a bed. "I have nothing but a bed there, Britt…"

"I just wanna see…" She pouts as they walk to the counter and retrieve Brittany's card.

It's still raining outside and the gloom seem to bare down on Brittany, making her sadder.

Santana sighs and says, "Fine. You did pay for my dinner!"

"This is a date so it's customary for you to invite me over." Brittany chuckles as they run to her car.

"Shall we?" Santana asks.

Brittany drives off into the rain towards Santana's empty apartment.

Good thing there's a bed in case Brittany wants to "sleep over". Good thing the apartment empty so they don't accidentally break something IF something does happen. We'll see.


Seriously you guys. If you have not tried pho yet, try it! It's very delicious! Spring rolls and the buns are delicious too! The previous chapter, I talked about a movie called Battle Royale. Watch that, everyone I show it to ends up loving it! Those are my recommendations (: If you don't notice, I have them with food all the time. It brings family and friends together, I think. That's why have dinners with your family!
