Chapter 22

Santana has had a great day. She started her day off having lunch with Tina and Rachel before dropping her girlfriend off at work, ran some errands, had lunch with Puck and Mack and was able to get them to agree to go to the car wash with her to wash Rachel's car.

"Seriously guys," Santana shakes her head at her two friends. A group of girls just walked by and Mack and Puck tongues is basically out of their mouths. "Dude..." She punches Pucks shoulder when he waves at one of the girls looking back at him. "You have a pregnant girlfriend. And you," she looks around Puck to a smirking Mack. "You have a...a Quinn." That's as good as she can do. Santana's not sure what Mack and her best friend have going on.

Quinn and Mack have been spending a lot of time together. Just the other day, Mack and Quinn joined her and Rachel at the movies. Santana and Rachel looked at it as a double date. Santana has also walked in on them kissing a few times before.

"A Quinn? Really?" Mack laughs but does go back to helping Santana wash Rachel's jeep.

"It's cool. We were just looking." Puck shrugs. "What's up with you and Quinn anyway?" He takes the rag Mack hands him. "You guys together or what?"

Mack shrugs. "We're friends." Puck and Santana give her a look of disbelief. "I'm serious. I want to date her but...I don't know. She went out with that Tyler guy the other day and..."

"Pissed you off?" Puck finishes for her. "That guys a douche. I thought she left him alone." Puck looks over at Santana who is scrubbing the back of the jeep.

Puck doesn't know about how Tyler can be absive but he does know a no good person when he sees one. All the girls agreed not to tell the guys in their group because they know Puck and Mike are very protective over them and didn't want them to go and beat up Tyler and get in trouble.

"I don't know what's going on with that. We actually got into it when she got home." Santana informs them. "I told her she needed to leave him alone. She said they are just friends."

"They better be just friends. Q's Mack girl now." Puck grins.

"Shut up." Mack splash water at the boy.

"Oh it's on!"

Santana just sighs as she watches her two friends start a water fight she's sure to be dragged into.

Why did she ask these to idiots to help her out again?

$)*(^*$%^#

After washing the jeep, the three friends pick up Rachel and head back to Puck and Rachel's apartment. Rachel tells Santana how sweet it is that she washed her car and thanks all three of them. When they get back to the apartment they find Quinn and Sandy sitting in the living room watching TV. Santana thinks Quinn is the only one that Sandy doesn't give a hard time. Santana thinks it has something to do with Quinn having dated Puck before and Sandy not wanting to piss the blonde off.

Santana greets Quinn and Sandy before following Rachel down the hall to her bedroom.

"Do you wanna go to the movies later?" Santana asks as she flops down on Rachel's bed.

"I don't know…" Rachel starts to change out of the clothes that she wore to work. "I kind of just want to stay in and cuddle." Santana frowns.

"That sounds boring."

"Please."

"Ugh. I guess." Rachel swats Santana leg as she passes to go to the closet.

They go back out to the living room once Rachel has changed. Sandy is cuddled up next to Puck on the loveseat and Quinn and Mack is sitting on opposite ends of the couch.

"Should we call Tina and Mike and have movie night?" Mack breaks the silence.

"No." Sandy shuts down that idea. "I don't want to see the Asian duo. I'm already counting the minutes until you leave."

"Whoa babe, that was so rude." Puck frowns at his girlfriend. "The Mack is invited over whenever. And don't talk about my other friends like that either."

Santana looks at Rachel and see her girlfriend face light up. Rachel can't stand Sandy and loves anytime Puck gets on her about her bad attitude.

"The Mack?" Quinn scuffs.

"You have something to add, Q." Mack scoots closer to the girl on the couch.

"You are so lame." Quinn giggles at Mack who is wiggling her eyebrows at her. "Stop." She pushes Mack's grabby hands away.

"This is lame," Sandy huffs and stands. "I'm going to lie down."

"Dude…your girlfriend is such a b…AW!" Mack rubs at her arm. "What the fuck, Q."

"What did I tell you about that word?" Quinn rolls her eyes at the pout forming on Mack's face.

Santana laughs and Puck makes a whipping noise.

"And you say you two aren't dating." Puck grins.

"You guys aren't dating?" Rachel finally pipes up.

"Nope. Quinn's playing with my emotions." Mack shakes her head.

"What? I'm not and why are we talking about this?" Quinn starts to defend herself.

"But you guys are so cute together." Rachel gushes.

"Rachel." Quinn blushes.

"Yeah…Lucy," Mack grins at Quinn. "We'd be the hottest couple ever."

"Well I don't know about all that." Rachel grabs Santana's hand. "San and I are pretty hot."

"I'm going home." Quinn says getting up from the coach, starting to collect her stuff.

"Look what you guys did." Santana smiles as Mack and Rachel high fiving each other.

"Come here Quinn." Mack stands and hugs the blonde from behind. "You're so cute when you're embarrassed."

"Shut up and get off of me…" Quinn starts but then trails off when Mack starts whispering in her ear. Santana wishes she could hear what Mack is saying because Quinn is turning even redder.

"Where are you two going?"Puck questions when Quinn and Mack start heading to the door.

"None of your business, dad." Quinn rolls her eyes and pulls Mack out the door with her.

"Hey…you guys leaving too." Santana has Rachel's hand in hers and is standing by the hallway doorway. "What about me?"

"Go rest with your girlfriend. Me and mines is going to cuddle." Santana smirks.

"Fine." Puck huffs.

+ ()##*$:

"What?" Rachel raises a suspicious eyebrow at Santana.

Santana and Rachel have been relaxing in Rachel's bedroom for a few hours now. They have watched a few episodes of Charmed and Rachel made them some dinner. Now they are just lying in bed and Santana keeps smiling at Rachel.

"What? What?" Santana smile gets bigger when Rachel rolls her eyes.

"Stop." Rachel swats at Santana's exposed stomach. "You're creeping me out." Santana smiles and scoots away from Rachel's hand.

"I didn't know smiling was a crime."

"Whatever...just stop looking at me like that or tell me what's got you so happy."

"You." Santana watches Rachel blush and turn her head away. "I'm happy." Santana continues. She's now up on her knees, moving across the queen sized bed over to Rachel.

When Santana turns Rachel head so she can see her face, Rachel has a shy little smile playing across her face.

"Kiss." Rachel rolls her eyes but does as Santana asks. They share a slow, passionate kiss. "Mmmm...I love you." She mumbles before pecking Rachel's bottom lip and sitting next to her.

"I love you too." Rachel smiles. "Not that I don't like it," Rachel begins. "But what's got you all emotional?"Santana shrugs.

"I don't know...I just feel..." Santana shakes her head. She's not sure how to express her feeling using words. "I just feel...good, you know." Rachel just sits and watches her girlfriend. Santana looks like she's glowing. "Work hasn't been bad. Things with my dad are good. You and I are good." Santana smirks and leans over to kiss Rachel's cheek. "I just don't feel weighed down. The only thing that would make this anymore perfect than what is now… would be having my mom here." Santana sighs. "But that's not going to happen, so let's not dwell on it to long."

"You are so cute." Rachel says pushing Santana back to lie down on the bed. "And you make me happy too." Rachel moves to straddle Santana.
