I just want to say thanks for all the feedback guys :D It's so awesome, and you guys are so awesome too. I totally less than three you all ^_^ But it seems FF isn't alerting all the people who've alerted this when I update. That is SUCH crap. FF has been messing up way too much lately :(
So, First Halloween is here! I know it may seem weird, since, well, they're like fourteen right? So obviously this isn't their first Halloween. Well, I think it's their first Halloween together, and honestly, it's more interesting during this point than it would be back when they were in third grade. I'm also planning to do more First holidays, like First Christmas, First New Years Party, First Valentines Day, and yes, there's explanations for all of these on why it's their First together. I'll try to keep better track of my timeline so as not to screw up the continuity I've been building.
Anyhoozel, time to get to the chapter with Britt and San in costumes…oh, I know what's running through your guys' heads right now…sickos XD I kid, I kid.
To the chapter!
"I will never forgive you for this. You do understand that, right?"
Brittany was trying to ignore Santana's negativity as she walked with the Latina toward the costume store. School had just let out a few minutes ago, and instead of taking the route home as Santana wanted to, Brittany insisted that they needed to get their costumes. She tried to explain to her girlfriend that it was essential to get now, seeing as tomorrow was Halloween. Luckily, tomorrow was a Saturday, so there wouldn't be any school, unlike last year.
Brittany was getting annoyed by Santana's groaning. "Come on, babe, it's not going to be that bad!"
Santana let out a huge sigh. "Britt, you know I think you're the coolest girlfriend anyone could have, okay? But you are forcing me to wear pink in public! What if someone sees me as a fucking Power Ranger? Holy shit, what if Puck sees me in that thing?"
Brittany shrugged. "Who cares what other people think? If people have got some kind of problem with our awesome costumes, then they can go and…I dunno, but they suck. Plus you'll be in a mask, nobody'll see your face."
"Brittany, faces sweat and heat up in masks, causing the people wearing them to take it off for some air. Therefore, people can fucking see me." Santana desperately wanted to make a run for it, but decided against it. She couldn't do that to Brittany, plus abandoning a girl in crutches was too harsh even for her.
Brittany gave a sad little whimper. It was fake, just to try to make Santana feel guilty. "Please, San? For me?" Brittany then shrugged. "I was thinking if you'd do this for me, I might let your hands go further up my shirt the next time we make out."
Santana growled. "Stop doing that!"
Brittany just smiled. "Stop what?"
Santana saw the costume shop in the distance and groaned. "Stop tempting me with your boobs! It's evil!"
Brittany began to swing her hips side to side in front of Santana. It was a little difficult for her seeing as her crutches were getting in the way, but it was still effective. "I've never tempted anyone in my life. You must have me confused with some other blonde."
Santana couldn't get her eyes off of Brittany's swinging hips. "I hate you. I hate you…so freaking much."
"I love you too," Brittany said in an adorable sing song voice.
Now the two girls were in front of the costume shop. Masks of all sorts were strewn around the shop window, and they could faintly see some costumes in the background behind the dust covered glass. There were also some kids running around inside, and to Santana, they looked obnoxious. The Latina groaned once more while the blonde just giggled gleefully. Brittany then motioned for Santana to come in with her, and she reluctantly followed. Holding the door open for Brittany, Santana and her walked inside and were greeted with a foul aroma.
"Smells like ass in here," Santana said, scrunching up her nose in disgust.
Brittany scrunched up her nose as well. "It smells like me when I forget to use soap in the shower. Ick."
Santana gave Brittany an odd look, and then sighed. "Look, can we get this over with? I don't want to stay in here for too long. I swear to God, this freaking place could be the equivalent to Catcake's litter box."
Brittany poked Santana in the arm. "What's equivalent mean?"
"Doesn't matter," Santana answered irritably. "Please, just find the freaking costumes."
Brittany nodded, and crutched up and down, twisting her way through the few aisles the tiny shop had. As Brittany came up to the third aisle, Brittany clapped her hands and motioned for Santana to come over. Santana, crossing her arms, reluctantly walked over to where her girlfriend was. The Latina had to try not to groan once more when she saw the costumes.
"That's the original Blue Mighty Morphin' costume, which is what I'll be wearing, and that's the Pink Mighty Morphin' costume, which is what you'll be wearing," Brittany explained, seeming to be geeking out at the prospect of dressing up as her hero.
"Why can't I be Blue and you be Pink?" Santana asked.
"Because the Blue one is Billy and Billy is amazing and I love him and he's my favorite so this is why I'm in Blue because of his awesomeness," Brittany said, all in one breath.
Santana sighed. "Thanks for the explanation, Britt," she said sarcastically. "Can we just buy the damn things?"
Brittany nodded. "Okay," she said, and with that, she dug around in her pockets for the cash. Her face fell into a frown. "Um…Santana? Do you have any money?"
The sun was falling outside, and cool air was blowing through the trees as children in costumes raced up and down the block, beginning their Halloween night, trying to get as many candy as possible. Almost everyone on the street was happy. Except for one person residing in the Pierce house.
"I can't believe we're Trick or Treating," Santana muttered as she pulled the Pink Ranger suit over her clothes. As she fit her arms through the costume, she looked at herself in Brittany's mirror. "Oh my God, I look retarded."
Brittany, already fully dressed in her Blue Ranger costume and carrying her pillowcase, shook her head. "No you don't! You look cute, put on your mask."
Santana sighed, wanting to cry at this point. She slipped the Pink Ranger mask over her face and let out a whimper. "Great, even better."
Brittany hopped up behind her (because her crutches were on the bed) and slipped her hands around Santana's waist, pulling her body closer to her for support. "I think you look awesome." Santana wanted to respond, but it was hard with Brittany's hands squeezing their bodies together. The blonde was completely oblivious to the effect she was having on the Latina, and Santana began to sweat in her suit from getting hot, both from being in an enclosed, hot costume and from the closeness to her girlfriend.
The bedroom door creaked slightly as somebody slipped inside. "Hey guys," Catcake greeted. "I just- - -" Catcake looked up, noticing Santana in a pink costume. "You wore pink, for her? Girl, you are whipped." With that, Catcake slinked out of the room, laughing all the way. It was good that Santana didn't understand her. If she had heard her, she probably would've strangled the cat.
Brittany let her arms fall away from Santana's body, causing the shorter girl to frown at the lack of contact. The blonde hopped over to her bed, leaned down and grabbed her crutches. Fitting them under her arms, she got her pillowcase as well for the candy. Then she turned to Santana, both of them fully dressed in their costumes now. "I think we can go now!"
Santana sighed. "Can't we stay here and have sexy make out sessions like usual?"
"No!" Brittany scolded. "It's Halloween. Kissing can wait."
Santana groaned. This was going to be a long night…
Halloween (for Santana at least) had so far sucked. It was freezing cold outside. Apparently Brittany was having to much fun to notice this, but Santana definitely noticed it. At first she complained about her suit being too hot, but now all she wanted was a big coat and blanket. And Santana's arms were getting tired from carrying two bags of candy, since Brittany was having trouble walking with the crutches and carrying her bag at the same time. Also, people had begun to notice Santana. So far several people from school had seen her and commented on her attire. They had ran into Puck and Finn. When Puck saw Santana he just started laughing and told her she would make a perfect Ranger. Finn was a little better, doing his best to stifle his laughter. Then they ran into Jacob Ben Israel. He begged her to go out with him. After that horrifying incident, they ran into Kurt Hummel, who told Santana "pink wasn't her color". They did also run into Matt Rutherford, but it didn't matter. He had nothing to say on the subject. To top it all off, they seemed to keep getting houses with creepy people in them. One lady who spoke to her dog as if it were husband, a man who kept looking at their chests, and an overly happy couple who gave them unwrapped cupcakes with weird substances in them.
But of course, none of this bothered Brittany. She was having the time of her life, bouncing up and down (which was not a good idea since of the broken leg) and giggling all through the town. It completely baffled Santana how much the blonde was enjoying this, and finally, as they were walking down an empty sidewalk (it was empty since it was late and most kids had gone home), she asked.
"How can you be loving this? We've run into creepers, it's freezing, and your leg must be hurting from all the walking on crutches." Santana watched as Brittany pulled her mask up to give her a smile.
"It's all worth it because I'm with you," Brittany said happily.
It was so sickeningly cheesy, but it did make Santana feel a little better. It also, on the other hand, perplexed her how Brittany was enjoying her company. "But how? It's not like I've been the coolest person tonight. I've been angry and complaining throughout the night."
"Yeah," Brittany agreed, nodding. "But I've gotten used to it." Santana's face fell, and Brittany was quick to notice. "I didn't mean it like that. I don't care if you have a temper. I can live with it because you're the coolest person ever. It's like…" Brittany thought for a moment on what a proper analogy would be. "It's like a duck. It can quack and be noisy or loud, but at the end of the day, I'll still love it. Santana, you're my duck."
Santana didn't know whether to be flattered or offended. She had just been compared to a duck, but Brittany loved ducks, so it was a good thing, right?
Santana eventually understood what Brittany was trying to say and managed a small smile, lifting her mask to show Brittany. "Thanks Britt."
"Anytime, Duck."
"No, that will not be my new nickname."
"Aww, why not?"
Santana didn't answer, she just shook her head. Santana looked up at the starry night and stared at the bright, glowing moon. From this angle, the moon looked like it had two holes in it, but Santana wrote them off as big craters. Santana was brought back to reality by a cold wind. She turned away from the wind and spoke, changing the subject. "Hey, can we go home now? It's been a long night, we've hit most houses, and it's probably close to midnight."
Brittany nodded. "Yup, we can go home. I think we got enough candy. Plus, it's getting cold."
Santana looked at her, dumbfounded. "Oh, now you're cold?"
"I guess I'm so hot that I just don't get cold," Brittany said giggling, walking in front of Santana and swinging her hips again.
Although Brittany was dressed as a superhero, Santana believed her actions resembled that of a super villain's.
With that, they began their trek back towards Brittany's house, while the blonde commented that she couldn't wait to do this again next year.
"Oh joy," Santana muttered unhappily. But as Brittany placed a kiss on the Latina's cheek, Santana didn't think she'd mind another night of this next year, because Brittany made all the crap that she had gone through worth it.
Santana is totally Brittany's duck! :D
One little thing, there's a line about the moon having two holes burned into it. Odd? Yes. Reference? Definitely. Bonus points if you where it's from ^_^
I hope all you guys were alerted to this like you're supposed to be. Stupid FF, effing things up. U c wut i did thar?
Okay guys, next chapter is gonna be kinda angsty. Yeah, yeah, I know, we all love fluffy Brittana, but this story NEEDS some angst. A lot of the past few chapters have been fluffy. It needs some more angst to balance it out a bit. Don't worry, it isn't gonna be super mopey angst, and there'll be more fluff after it. I just want this story to be balanced, which is funny, because I'm usually the one to say there's too much angst in stories XD Not that I dislike angst or won't read it, but some days I feel like I'm drowning in sadness XP
Anyhoozel, next chapter summary, 'cause teasing y'all is fun ^_^ First Rumor: As Santana returns to school, expecting to hear rumors about her in a Pink Ranger costume, is surprised when the rumors are about Brittany and not her. But after thinking about the new rumor, Santana knows Brittany would never do something like THAT, right?…right?
OMG WHAT DID BRITTANY DO? Find out next time :P Muahahaha, I'm evil.
