Okie dokie so...this is another one of those annoyingly long chapters. I apologize but I wanted this to be done in the one chapter. Also there is some good amount of Brittana love in this one for all those Santitany whores out there myself included. Hope you enjoy. This one is a bit heavy with not much funny moments but the funny will be back soon.
New Glee episode...not enough Santana I cannot express this any clearer. Quinn...I miss your pink hair already. Also I'm just gonna say this and some may not agree but I don't care...way too much Kurt. Seriously he bores me to the point where I want to stick needles in my eyes...also Shue is still a boob and not the good kind of boob...more like I wish he would go die in a whole kind of boob...here ends the rant.
Also sorry if there are some spelling mistakes...

Earlier that Friday...when the welcome home Quinn party was coming to an end and everyone was starting to leave Ben had pulled Charlie to the side to have a chat. They hadn't really said much since Ben admitted to his feelings for his best friend and he felt bad for ignoring her. She couldn't help the way she felt just as much as he couldn't help the way he felt.
"Hey, what's up?" Charlie asked as they entered her bedroom.
"Charlie...I...I don't want things to be weird between us, now that everything's kinda...well out in the open" Ben mumbled as he took a seat on her bed
"I don't want weirdness either" Charlie agreed as she came to sit next to him
Ben gave her a thankful smile
"I'm sorry for kind of ignoring you the last few days." He mumbled
"Ben…it's totally understandable and I don't want you to feel bad ok. I'm sorry too…I even made you some 'I'm Sorry' Cookies but then I chickened out in actually giving them to you because I didn't want to upset you" Charlie replied softly
Ben smiled
"I love your cookies" He replied
Charlie shrugged bashfully
"They're not that great" she mumbled
Ben just chuckled
"How come Flynn wasn't here?" He asked not that he really cared, Ben didn't really like the guy and not just because he was with Charlie but…he was kind of a…well a dumbass and Charlie could do so much better. She always had a knack for picking the wrong guy for a boyfriend.
"Well mom has never really liked him so I didn't want her to be annoyed on her first day back home" Charlie replied with an amused smile
Ben chuckled and nodded
"How are things with Daisy? Weren't you going to ask her out?" She asked
"I um yeah...We're going on a date tonight" He stuttered
Charlie smiled
"Yeah?" She asked
Ben nodded
"That's great Ben. Where are you taking her?" She asked excitedly
"I'm gonna take her dancing at that karaoke bar" He smiled
"Aww...well I want all the details tomorrow morning when we go out for our Saturday coffee and muffins" Charlie smiled brightly
Ben nodded
"I'm glad your...moving on" Charlie added softly
"Me too...I probably should have done it a long time ago" He mumbled
"Well you're doing it now so...I just want you to be happy Ben" Charlie replied
"Same goes for you Charlie" Ben smiled
"Well I better go and get ready for tonight" He added as he stood up
"Alright... Don't forget tomorrow" Charlie winked
Ben nodded and turned to leave
"Hey wait!" Charlie yelled after him
Ben turned around confused, Charlie took the few steps she needed to wrap her arms around him giving him a hug.
"For good luck" She whispered then kissed him on the cheek
Ben smiled and hugged her back.
~~~ Ben and Daisy ~~~
Ben could not be any more nervous if he tried as he stood outside Daisy's dorm room. He gently knocked on the door and waited. He felt good about his chat with Charlie. He really didn't want their friendship to suffer because in all reality Charlie was pretty much his only real friend. Yes he had other friends but there was no one like Charlie.
Soon enough Daisy opened her door with a big smile.
"Hey"
"H-Hi...you look...very pretty" He mumbled then cringed at how lame that sounded
Daisy just chuckled as she closed her door.
"Thanks...you're very pretty too" She added with a smirk
Ben just blushed and looked down bashfully.
"So where are we going?" She asked
"Oh um…I was thinking about taking you dancing…we don't have to if you don't want to" He quickly added
"No, that sounds fun." She smiled
"Great…there's also some karaoke as well" He added
"Oh I love karaoke…I can't sing for shit but I love it" Daisy laughed
"Awesome…well let's get going." Ben replied as he held out his arm for Daisy to take.
~~~ Charlie and Flynn ~~~
Charlie drove herself to Alfie's restaurant to meet up with her boyfriend Flynn. He was complaining about them not spending much time together anymore and so he wanted to start this thing where they had to go out every Friday and spend the weekend together. Charlie was ok with this but it wasn't going to be an ongoing thing because…she liked her 'me time'.
She entered the restaurant and saw her outrageously tall boyfriend and headed over to the booth and sat down.
"Hey" She mumbled
"Hi...how was your mom's party?" he asked
"Good...it's good to have her back home" Charlie smiled
Flynn nodded
"So I was thinking this week end we go mini golfing!" He told her with excitement
Charlie cringed, unlike her brother and sister, Charlie wasn't a huge fan of sports. She would do her running every now and then to keep fit and her yoga but that was it. She was also kinda bad at sports and one thing Charlie did not like and that was to be bad at something so she refused to participate if she could help it.
"Can't we do something else?" She asked
Flynn looked disappointed and was now sporting the wounded puppy look.
"Like what?" He asked
"I don't know…how about we go dancing or something? Go see a show in the city" She replied with excitement
Flynn didn't look all that enthused
"But you know I'm like the worst dancer ever" He replied
"And I'm not a huge fan of shows…I always have this fear that they're going to interact with the audience and then they'll pick me and then I'll make a fool out of myself" He rambled
Charlie sighed and stuffed a cheese stick into her mouth
"Fine we'll go mini golfing" She grumbled
Flynn brightened up at that
~~~ Moby ~~~
Maya helped Toby put the leftovers away in the fridge while Ally happily played with her toys. Toby wasn't going to lie, it was nice having Maya there. Ever since his daughter was born he didn't get out much and his friends were all too busy getting drunk and getting laid and that wasn't something he wanted his daughter to be around so it was nice to have some adult company that wasn't just his family or his workmates. Although it was nice it was also a little confusing. He wasn't going to say that he didn't have any feelings for his ex, she was his first love and all that jazz. He was glad that Ally liked her but Maya was engaged and when her fiancé moves to New York in a month's time things will change and he didn't like to think that Ally would get upset when Maya couldn't spend so much time with them anymore.
Maya was feeling and thinking the same thing. She never really fell out of love with Toby, it was just she had college on the other side of the country and he was to stay in New York. She missed him terribly and when she found him at the car shop she was over the moon to see him again. Maya adored Ally she was a real cutie and very much Toby's little girl. She was apprehensive about Alex coming over for the weekend. She was having such a good time with Toby and Ally that she literally forgot all about him.
"Well…I better get going I have to get up early tomorrow" Maya told Toby
"Right…what time does Alex's flight come in?" He asked
"Um…I think it was 8am" She replied as she picked up her bag
Toby nodded
"You know if you want you can bring him around…I'd like to meet the lucky bastard" He chuckled
"Oh um…n-no that's…I mean…he um…Alex kind of…he doesn't know about you" Maya admitted
Toby looked confused
"What do you mean?"
"Well…I…I never really told him about you" She replied
"Oh"
"It's not that I never wanted to or anything it's just…Alex tends to get…a little jealous of my male friends." She mumbled
Toby nodded slowly he couldn't help but notice the slight shift in Maya's body language and the almost timid look in her eyes but he didn't say anything.
"Well thanks for coming today" He smiled gently at her
"It was my pleasure. It was great to see everybody again and I'm just glad that your mom is better" She replied her face automatically brightening up again.
"Ally, pumpkin Maya has to go so come say goodbye" Toby informed his daughter
The little blondie came bouncing up to the brunette and threw her arms around her legs
"Bye Maya!" She practically yelled
Maya just giggled and crouched down to Ally's level giving her a proper hug
"Bye Ally" She smiled
"Wait I drewed you somefing" she quickly ran back to her room and then came back again with a piece of paper and handed it to Maya
Maya looked down at the picture as Ally explained
"This is me, and that's daddy and that you and that's my pony that daddy is going to get me for Christmas if I'm a good girl her name will be princess apple-berry." Ally smiled brightly
Maya giggled softly, the picture itself looked nothing like what Ally explained but it was just too adorable. Toby looked slightly panicked at the whole 'daddy is getting me a pony' part of Ally's little speech.
"Well thank you Ally, I'm going to put this up on my fridge when I get home" Maya told her
Ally just looked proud
"Alright, well I better get going. I'll see you two sometime next week maybe." She said as she looked up at Toby
He just gave her a nod and a smile. Maya gave Ally one more big hug before she stood up and awkwardly waved to Toby before she went home.
"Daddy?"
"Yes pumpkin"
"Is Maya your special friend?" She asked
Toby couldn't help but chuckle
"What do you mean pumpkin?" He asked
"Well Aunty Cha-Cha said that she was" Ally explained
"Oh did she now? Well you shouldn't listen to Aunty Cha-Cha…she tells lots of porky pies" He replied
Ally looked confused
"What does that mean daddy?" She asked
"It means she tells a lot of lies"
Ally looked absolutely shocked. Toby just laughed at her reaction and then scooped her up into his arms
"Come on little miss you need a bath and then it's bed time" He told her
Ally sighed dramatically.
~~~ Faberry ~~~
Rachel could not be happier to have her wife back home. Their house now felt complete with Quinn there. After everybody had gone home and Toby had carried his mother up to bed Rachel cuddled up to her wife's side and slept next to her never letting go of her arm and for the first time she actually slept and didn't wake up from a horrible nightmare.
It was around 6 o'clock when Quinn woke up she slowly opened her eyes and couldn't help but smile when she realised that she was in her room, in her own bed and had her wife right next to her. It had been hard for Quinn to be away from Rachel for the week she was in hospital. The two had never been apart for so long…not since high school had they not slept next to each other. Quinn carefully rolled onto her side to face her wife, it was still uncomfortable and a little painful at times because she still had her stitches and her chest was still pretty bruised from the CPR. She carefully leaned forward to gently place a soft kiss onto her wife's lips. The action slowly brought Rachel out from her slumber. Her eyes slowly adjusted to the dimed room, the sun hadn't completely set but it was still pretty dark in their room. She focused her vision on the person in front of her and couldn't help but smile. She had missed this so much…waking up next to Quinn.
"Am I dreaming?" She softly mumbled
Quinn just giggled
"No baby…you're not dreaming" Quinn softly told her then kissed her again to prove it and Rachel just sighed contently.
"Are you hungry?" Rachel mumbled
"Little bit" Quinn replied
Rachel nodded and made a move to get up but was stopped when Quinn placed her hand on her shoulder
"Wait…just…can we just stay here for a few more minutes?" The blonde asked
Rachel smiled and nodded as she laid back down getting comfortable as she took Quinn's hand into her own and brought it up to her chest snuggling in close to her wife as they now shared the same pillow and their faces were super close. Quinn just smiled and gently kissed Rachel's nose before she started to drift off back to sleep. Rachel took longer to go back to dream land as she just laid there and just watched her wife for a few moments. Watching how perfect she looked, how beautiful she was and how her chest rose up and down telling Rachel that she was still there, that she hadn't gone, that she didn't leave her. After taking in the sight of her wife one more time Rachel let her eyes close and soon drifted off to sleep.
Another hour passed before they woke up again. Rachel helped Quinn get out of bed and waited patiently by the bathroom door for her to finish so she could be with her while she walked down the stairs. Quinn told her it wasn't necessary but Rachel did it anyways. Quinn sat at the breakfast bar while she watched her wife attempt to make some dinner.
"What's with all the rabbit food?" Quinn asked looking a little disgusted
"Quinn, we need to make sure you're eating healthy now. So I've cleaned out the kitchen throwing out all the bad food and restocked it was healthy alternatives." Rachel informed her
Quinn looked horrified.
"You threw out my cookies?" She asked
"Yes" Rachel simply replied
"Why?"
"I just told you Quinn. You had a heart attack you can't keep eating all the things that you used to, which means no more bacon and red meat" Rachel instructed
Once again Quinn looked horrified
"That's not fair" She whined
"I'm sorry sweetheart but I'll be damned to let you eat anything that will cause another heart attack." Rachel told her sternly
Quinn just sat there pouting
"And also I've talked with your doctors about an appropriate exercise program for you which will start tomorrow." Rachel added
Quinn sighed dramatically
"Just kill me now" She huffed
Rachel slammed the knife on the counter startling Quinn
"Damn it Quinn this is serious! You died ok! Do you get that? I had to stand there and watch you die right in front of me so don't just sit there and make jokes about this!" Rachel yelled
Quinn was stunned by her wife's outburst and then felt incredibly guilty
"I'm sorry Rachel" She softly murmured
The tiny brunette just looked down as she brought her hand up to wipe the few tears that had fallen but it was too late the flood gates had been lifted and she couldn't hold it in. Her shoulders shook as she tried to hold back her sobs. Quinn got up from her seat and went over to her wife wrapping her arms around her. Rachel returned the embrace as she cried trying not to hold on to tightly and cause Quinn any pain. Quinn couldn't help but softly cry with her wife as they stood there in their kitchen holding each other.
~~~ Hecky ~~~
Hannah was stunned, like seriously she could not be any more stunned then she was right now.
"Hannah?" Becky hesitantly asked
"I swear to god I will kill her" Hannah finally spoke
Becky had just finished telling Hannah about Valerie's little visit. Their two boys had been put to bed after the movie had finished as their mothers stood in the kitchen cleaning up.
"Hannah" Becky sighed
"No! No Becky she's a fucking loony! She can't get away with this shit! I will take care of it ok I will send her off into the Bush and go all fucking backpacker killer on her. If they thought Milat was bad well then they won't be prepared for what I'm going to do to that bitch!" Hannah ranted
"You're being overdramatic" Becky told her
"No! I'm fucking angry is what I am" Hannah replied
Becky sighed and sat down at the kitchen table
"I don't know what to do" She told her
"Tell Santana…get her legal advice and then we can stop all this." Hannah replied as she sat down next to her wife.
"I wish I could just go back and…god I wish I had never been so fucking weak and slept with her." Becky cried
Hannah looked down
"Why did you?" She finally asked
"What?" Becky sniffed
"Why did you sleep with her? Was I not enough?" Hannah sadly asked
"No…Hannah you were…are more than enough. Your my everything" Becky replied
"But then why would you do this?"
During the six months since this whole thing began Becky and Hannah had never really discussed any of this. They would just end up arguing but they never had a proper conversation about it all. Mostly because Hannah didn't want to know. But after everything that has happened she decided that it was time for them to talk and get everything out in the open, especially if she wanted to give them a second chance.
"I don't know…she was…she would flirt with me…all the time, she made me feel wanted I guess…I never planned to sleep with her you have to know that. I just had a bit to drink and I was on my way home when she cornered me in my office and I just…" Becky sighed
They just sat there in silence for a long while neither knowing what to say next.
"I wish we could just…run away from all this." Hannah softly spoke
"Then let's do that" Becky quickly replied
Hannah gave her a confused look
"No…no it's what we should do. We should just pack up and…and move to Australia you keep going on about how much you miss it and…and we can take the boys they would love to see where you were born and we could just start over, put all of this behind us." Becky rambled
"Becky as much as I would love to go back home we can't just up and leave" Hannah replied
"Why? Why can't we? You just said you wanted to run away from all this." Becky asked desperately
"Because…our family and friends are all here and even if we did move we would have to sort all this Valerie crap out because I don't want it hanging over us for the rest of our lives." Hannah replied
Becky sighed in defeat, she knew Hannah was right. That there was no real running away from this they needed to deal with it. Then Becky picked up on something Hannah had said.
"Does this mean I get a second chance?" She hesitantly asked
"It means…that I love you and that I miss you. It means that I'm willing to…I want to trust you again I want to be able to look at you and not see you with someone else." Hannah replied
Becky just looked hopeful
"We'll go slow…it's been months since we were together and it'll be awkward and I can't grantee that I won't have moments where I think that I'm making a big mistake letting you in again…but I swear Becky if you ever hurt me like you have ever again there will be no more chances." Hannah told her
Becky just smiled she could not be happier
"I will never…I swear on our boys lives I will never hurt you like that again" Becky told her with conviction
Hannah nodded as she slowly moved her hand towards her wife's and entwined their fingers giving her a gentle squeeze.
~~~ Grafia ~~~
Grace and Sofia lay together out of breath on their bed with their limbs all tangled up. Sofia had insisted that they get as much practice for their wedding night as possible. Grace didn't think they needed practice because they had been doing this since they were sixteen but she was not going to complain at all.
"I think…that was like…a new record or something" Grace panted
"Mmhhmm…baby you are fucking awesome at sex" Sofia giggled
"Well I try" Grace smirked
Sofia snuggled up to her fiancée as she rested her head on her chest and possessively held onto her hip and softly drew small circles on her heated skin with her thumb.
"Gracie?" Sofia softly murmured
"Hmm?"
"Did you really mean it when you said that you would want kids with me?" She nervously asked
They hadn't really talked about it since Grace proposed. They agreed to talk more about it after Grace's championships but Sofia was afraid that Grace was still doubtful.
"We talked about this…I told you I just want you and I want you to be happy" Grace replied
"Yeah but I want you to be happy too" Sofia told her
"I'm happy if you're happy" Grace replied
"But?" Sofia queried
"There's no but" Grace told her
"Grace I've known you since birth I know when there's a but"
Grace sighed
"I just…the thought of me being a mother terrifies me" She quietly admitted
"Why?"
"Because what if I screw the kid up? What if they grow up hating me?" Grace replied
Sofia couldn't help but giggle
"Why are you laughing at me?" Grace pouted
"Gracie…baby it's normal to be scared about being a parent. I'm scared too…I mean come on if I'm having the kid that means that it will have Lopez genes and that could like totally end badly I mean look what happened to my Mami" Sofia told her
"There's nothing wrong with your Mami…Aunty San is awesome and you know she is" Grace giggled
"Well of course you'd say that you're like in love with her" Sofia huffed
"I'm not in love with your Ma" Grace grumbled
"No? But you constantly stare at her boobs" Sofia teased
"I do not!"
"Yeah you do" Sofia replied
"I have a healthy appreciation of the female form and your ma is female so don't judge me!" Grace huffed
"Ha! Alright you so can't judge me if I want male strippers at my bachelorette party" Sofia added
"Ew why on earth would you want that?" Grace looked horrified
"Because I have a healthy appreciation of the male form, so don't judge me!" Sofia replied back with a smirk.
"Ok enough talk about male forms in this bedroom…or this house in fact! No boys allowed thank you very much" Grace informed her
"What about Ben and Toby?" Sofia asked
"They're allowed because they are our brothers and therefor you would have absolutely no appreciation of them."
"Well I don't know…Toby has gotten pretty fine over the years…he's got that whole single dad rugged look going for him" Sofia replied with a smirk
"That's it…you can sleep on the couch" Grace huffed
"I could…but then who would touch me in my special lady parts?" Sofia replied
"You can touch your own special lady parts" Grace replied
"Alright if you insist" Sofia sighed
The Latina rolled onto her back and slowly dragged her hand down her stomach till she reached her hot centre and ran small circles around her clit. Grace laid there jaw wide open
"What are you doing?" She asked
"Touching my special lady parts" Sofia simply replied
"Well…stop" Grace stuttered
"Why?" Sofia smirked
"Because…it's making me horny and I'm supposed to be mad at you for thinking my brother is hot" Grace mumbled as she couldn't tear her eyes away from Sofia's hand in her special lady parts.
Sofia just giggled
"Babe you can never stay mad at me…wanna taste?" She asked as she lifted her fingers up to Grace's lips
The brunette just whimpered and gave in as she ran her tongue the entire length of Sofia's middle finger before slowly sucking it into her mouth. Sofia always loved fake-angry-sex.
~~~ Singing and Dancing ~~~
Daisy and Ben sat at their table as they laughed and watched a group of 60 year old women try and sing and dance up on stage to some old song that nobody even knew. They had been there for an hour already and both were having a great time. They chatted and got to know each other a bit better.
"So when are you gonna get up there and serenade me?" Daisy asked with a smirk
"I think we're up next" He replied
"We?"
"Yep" He smiled
"But…I told you I can't sing"
"You also told me that you love karaoke" He replied
"Yeah…but…not like with other people around…and definitely not when I'm sober" She replied
"Oh come on…it'll be fun. Besides you can't be that bad…and if we go after this group no one will even notice." He added
Daisy didn't look too sure
"You don't have to…but it'll be fun" Ben told her
"Alright…you just better be a good singer so it will cover my dying cat impression" Daisy told him
Ben just laughed then held his hand out for her to take. They headed up to the stage and had a look at the song selection.
"I have never heard of half of these songs" Daisy mumbled
"Yeah…me either" Ben replied
"Oh how about this one?" Daisy pointed to a song
Ben just laughed out loud
"I think its fitting" She smirked
"On a first date?" Ben asked
"Well…its just a song Ben" She smirked
"Alright…we'll do that song" He replied as he made their selection.
The group of 60 year olds finally finished their song which made the whole room cheer. The popular place had a pretty diverse group with people of all ages there. Ben and Charlie had been there plenty of times before because Charlie just loved performing and well so did Ben. The DJ thanked the previous group and then introduced the next act which was Ben and Daisy.
"Alright ladies and gentlemen up next we've got our golden boy with a smooth voice and a gorgeous lady who will hopefully take our breath away…take it away guys"
Daisy gave Ben an odd look and mouthed 'golden boy'
Ben blushed slightly and leaned over
"I've come here a few times" He admitted
"Oh my god you're a karaoke whore aren't you?" Daisy smiled
Ben just nodded as he held up the microphone and got ready to sing. As soon as he opened his mouth Daisy swooned a little as did most of the women and some men at the bar. Ben's voice had a nice deep timber.
"Daisy, Daisy give me your answer do.
I'm half crazy, all for the love of you.
We can't have a stylish marriage.
I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two"
"Daisy, Daisy Bell give me your answer do,
I'm half crazy, head over heels in love with you.
I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two"
Ben smiled then looked over at Daisy waiting for her to sing, the girl looked terrified but did it anyways. She wasn't that bad. Halfway through though she nudged Ben to sing with her.
"Daisy, Daisy why don't you give me your answer do.
I'm half crazy, all for the love of you.
We can't have a stylish marriage.
I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two"
They finished the song with a bow as the crowd cheered for them, Daisy looked slightly embarrassed but she loved it all the same. Ben just smiled and wrapped his arm around Daisy's shoulder as they headed off the stage and went back to their table.
"You're a jerk" Daisy laughed
"Why?" He asked
"You never said you could sing like that" She replied
"I can't tell you all my secrets" He smiled
"Well I definitely want to keep finding them out." Daisy replied suggestively
The rest of the night they sang a few more times, Ben more than Daisy until it was getting late and so Ben offered to walk Daisy home. The whole date Ben had grown in his confidence, Daisy made him feel comfortable and he was really starting to like her but now the date was coming to an end his nerves were creeping up again. He wasn't sure how he should say goodbye…should he kiss her? Should he just give her a hug? Maybe a handshake? No that's stupid Ben!
They finally reached her dorm room and just sort of awkwardly stood there.
"Well I had a really great time tonight Ben" Daisy told him shyly
"Me too…I'm glad you had fun" He replied nervously
"Right well…I better…" She motioned to her door
Ben nodded and awkwardly stood there
Daisy just smiled and figured if Ben wasn't going to make a move then she'd do it instead so she reached up on her tippy toes and softly kissed him on the lips. Ben was slightly taken back by the move he really didn't see it coming but he couldn't help the small smile that formed on his lips when she pulled away.
"Goodnight Ben" She softly spoke before she headed inside
Ben stood there for a few minutes taking in what just happened until he realised he was still standing there and it was starting to look kinda creepy so he turned to leave the smile on his face never left though.
~~~ Is That All There Is? ~~~
Charlie and Flynn had finished their meal and were now just sitting in the restaurant talking or well Charlie was talking Flynn tried to listen but like always he would sometimes just drown Charlie out and start daydreaming. When Charlie noticed she just sighed in annoyance and slapped him on the arm to get his attention.
"Hmm? What?" He asked a little stunned
"You're not even listening to me" She huffed
"Sorry Charlie…hey do you want to get out of here and go back to my place?" He asked suggestively
Charlie had to physically stop herself from cringing. She didn't know what was going on with her and Flynn lately. At first he was this great guy, he was cute and played in a band, yes he was as dumb as two planks of wood and was abnormally tall but he could also be sweet in a goofy kind of way. Charlie couldn't understand why she had so much trouble with her relationships. She could just never find a guy who had the same interests as her well she could but they were all gay.
"Um…I'll think I'll pass…I'm kinda tired and my mom just came home so…I think we'll just call it a night ok?" She replied
Flynn looked disappointed but nodded; he stood up to walk her to her car and gave her a kiss goodbye before he went to his own car. Charlie sat in her car for a moment just thinking. Her life plan was not working out the way she had hoped. By this time she was supposed to be in a happy committed relationship with an amazing guy as she continued to rise to fame on the Broadway scene. But that was clearly not happening. She had bad relationships with total losers and she was struggling to get any good roles with her auditions. She had kept this from her mothers because she didn't want them to be disappointed. By this time her Ma had already been in an off-Broadway show that had gotten rave reviews that helped led her to be cast in the Sound of Music as Leisl on Broadway. She had been to several auditions but no one had called her back only that one time for the production of Hair but even that looked like it was going to fall through. With a sigh Charlie turned the key in the ignition and drove home.
~~~ Brittana ~~~
Since their picnic was ruined and they were now getting a little cold from the water that Sue had thrown on them Santana and Brittany decided to head back to the limo. Santana gave the driver the directions of where to go next then went to go sit in the back with her wife.
"So where are we going now?" Brittany asked excitedly
"Um…it's kind of a surprise but don't get too excited it's not like…somewhere fancy…well it is special because of what happened there." Santana tried to explain
"I'm confused" Brittany frowned
Santana just kissed her brow and smiled
"Don't worry, you'll get it when we get there" She simply told her
The drive to the next place didn't take very long. Santana quickly got out of the limo so she could open the door for her blonde. Brittany just smiled at her wife she then looked a little shocked when she noticed where they were. She turned to give Santana a questioning look.
"Ok so I know my old house isn't what you were expecting but there is a reason why I brought you here. This whole being romantic thing…it got me thinking of our past and what brought us to where we are now and so this place…although there are some not so great memories here…there were a few good memories…things that happened here that…if they didn't happen then I don't know if we would be here right now…do you get what I mean?" Santana rambled
Brittany just nodded her head.
"Ma is letting us stay here…the last tenant left on Wednesday and the new ones don't move in till Monday so the place is ours until we head back to New York on Sunday." Santana explained
Brittany smiled and took Santana's hand into her own.
"You can be very sweet sometimes Sanny"
The Latina just bowed her head feeling slightly bashful. Brittany gently brought her hand under her wife's chin to make her look up into her eyes.
"What memory are you thinking of?" She asked
With a sad smile Santana told her
"Our first time"
"You know...that night was the best night of my life" Brittany smiled as the memories came back to her
"Mine too" Santana replied
Brittany then looked a little sad
"It was also the first time you broke my heart" She added softly
"Mine too" Santana replied again looking just as sad as her wife.
~~~ 2008 ~~~
There had always been two versions of Brittany and Santana's first time. There was the one they told everyone which went like this: They were 14, it was a hot summer night, the house was empty and Santana decked her room out to be all romantic and they did it all night long and it was fucking awesome. So awesome that they did it all again the next morning, with Santana looking like the biggest stud ever and Brittany never being more happy. Although that did actually happen...it just wasn't what happened for their first time.
The other version...the real version that no one knew about went something more like this...
Santana and Brittany had been 'together' for a year now. (Though definitely not officially, they never even talking about what they did together) They were best friends who would occasionally make out all the time but only behind closed doors. Santana refused to acknowledge what was going on between herself and her beautiful blonde best friend even though she was the one who kissed her first.
Every now and then Santana let her mind wander and think of what this all means and every time she did it would terrify her to no end. Deep...deep down she knew. She had always known since she started noticing how the girls would always interest her more and that she had no desire to kiss the boys like the other girls did. But the then 14 year old Santana Lopez refused to acknowledge this and so she kept it hidden. But having Brittany as your best friend didn't help. She was gorgeous. Her long blonde hair, her blue eyes, and her long dancer legs. She made the brunette all tingly inside; she made her feel a lot of things.
But because of her family, her strict and religious family Santana could never be the person she knew she was supposed to be. So this is why she kept it to herself. It's why she would spend the next year sleeping around with boys she could care less about to hide the fact that yes Santana Lopez was a lesbian.
Santana and Brittany were currently up in the young Latina's bedroom. Her parents had gone out that night and her two brothers were staying over at their own friend's place. It was the first time Santana's parents let them stay home alone so it was a big deal.
The two girls had planned a super awesome sleep over with pizza and a movie marathon. Santana had set up her room for the night of awesomeness.
They were currently cuddled up together on Santana's bed like they would always do when they watched a movie. Santana was gently running her hands through Brittany's long blonde hair as she rested her head on the Latina's shoulder. Brittany had her arms wrapped around Santana's body holding on tight thinking that they fit together so perfectly.
"Bubbles?" Brittany softly spoke
"Hmm?"
"Are you wearing a new bra?" She asked
The Latina's cheeks couldn't help but burn
"Um...y-yeah, why?"
Brittany just shrugged softly
"Your boobs look bigger from this angle" She the added
"Why are you looking at my boobs Chicken?" Santana asked with a hint of amusement
"Because I like them" Brittany simply replied
That response for some reason was doing things to Santana's body. The two had been making out with each other for a year now but in all honesty it was pretty tame and innocent. They hadn't even tried for second base though Santana would be lying if she said she hadn't thought about doing it. Yes there was that one time when they were at their gazebo but that was like totally an accident and it was more of a graze than a grope but it still sent shivers down Santana's spine. She wasn't even sure if Brittany noticed….she noticed. Since then Santana had wanted to do it again or at least let Brittany touch her. So she decided to make a bold move.
"Y-You can touch them if you want" she all but mumbled
Brittany couldn't help but smile softly at that. She had been dying to touch her best friend for a while now but she had always been too scared that it would frighten the other girl away. Most people thought Brittany was stupid and yes she didn't know her two times tables or who the president was but she knew other stuff. She knew that the only reason why Santana never really talked about what they would do together was because she was terrified of what it all means. She knew that Santana was also terrified of her family finding out and people at school knowing and getting bullied because of it. Brittany had known for a while that her best friend didn't like boys even though Santana tried to hide this fact. She could see through the facade. Brittany knew all this so she would let Santana control the amount of physical interactions between them. But now she was given the green light to at least touch the girl's boobs Brittany was over the moon.
She didn't dive in and get all grabby she wanted to saver this moment. So she gently and slowly began to move her hand up from Santana's hip where it had been resting and ran it up the brunette's stomach. Brittany could feel her best friend's muscles tremble beneath her fingertips even though the material of her top was a slightly inconvenient barrier. She could also hear the change in Santana's breathing as her hand went higher. Brittany knew Santana was nervous...heck even Brittany was nervous. She had never done this before.
Santana's breath hitched when Brittany's fingers grazed the underside of her right breast. The blonde stopped as she hesitated that was until she faintly heard Santana tell her to continue.
"Don't stop"
Brittany ever so slightly nodded and took a deep breath along with Santana.
The Latina's body was on fire and Brittany hadn't even reached her chest yet. Santana had never felt so...excited and nervous. Of course when they made out she felt these things but right now it was a lot more intense. She licked her lips that had turned dry as the anticipation was slowly killing her and she almost groaned out in frustration when Brittany hesitated. After telling her to continue the Latina's mind went blank as she let these new and awesome sensations over take her.
Brittany brought her hand up to finally cup Santana's breast. And in that single moment the love affair between Brittany and Santana's boobs began. She took a moment to just feel the weight in her hand she was mesmerized by it all as she watched her hand touch her best friend in a way that was so intimate right now. That made Brittany feel like she was Santana's and Santana was hers. After taking this moment Brittany began to softly kneed the flesh beneath her hand making Santana slightly squirm. And in an experimental move Brittany ran her thumb over Santana's already hard nipple making the Latina let out a soft moan.
The brunette herself was surprised at how good this felt. If she thought her body was on fire before then she must be in a fricking inferno right now. She never wanted this feeling to stop.
"Brittany" She moaned as the blonde continued to drive her body insane.
The blonde barely heard her name being called but she did and so she gently started to kiss the brunette's pulse point. She could feel how warm Santana's body had become. The Latina had yet to move her hand from Brittany's hair during this whole time so when the blonde started to kiss her she gently began to massage her head to urge her on.
It was all very overwhelming but in a very good way. Brittany, feeling slightly uncomfortable in the way she was positioned decided to move to make things easier so she straightened up a bit and laid herself on top on the girl beneath her letting her legs fall either side of Santana's hips. This new position made Santana's head feel light and dizzy. Having her blonde friend's body completely melded on top of her own was heaven. It was a position that Santana would forever love to be in.
Once both girls were comfortable Brittany began to kiss her way up to the spot behind Santana's ear as she slowly brought her other hand up the Latina's side towards her left breast. There was no way Brittany would not waste an opportunity to miss anything.
With the added stimulation Santana involuntarily bucked her hips up hitting Brittany's special lady parts. This put things to a halt. Brittany removed her lips from her friend's neck and hesitantly looked up at and into Santana's eyes.
They stared into each other's eyes for seemed like a lifetime but really it was only a few seconds. Brittany could see the fear and uncertainty in the brunette's eyes but she could also see the want and desire there too. Santana saw the exact same thing in Brittany's eyes. This brief moment was in a sense a time for either one to back out. To put a stop to things before they got out of hand but neither one of them made a move to stop whatever it was that was coming next. Santana briefly thought about the consequences of them continuing what it will mean and that things would be forever changed between them. But looking into those gorgeous blue eyes she really didn't care about the consequences. Because in that moment it finally hit her. Santana was in love with her best friend and she wanted to be with her. It was as if Brittany could read her mind because after that realization the blonde leant down to capture the Latina's lips with her own in what could only be described as the most tender and loving kiss they had ever shared.
After that kiss Santana finally reached out to touch Brittany. She nervously placed her hands on the blonde's hips sliding them just under the hem of her friend's top to feel the heated skin that was underneath.
The girls continued to kiss as their hands began to explore each other's bodies for the very first time.
"Can I see you?" Brittany hesitantly whispered
It took Santana a moment to understand what Brittany was asking, her nerves and fear was starting to rise up again but she pushed them away and just nodded. Brittany gave her a soft and loving smile before she removed her hands from the Latina's chest and slid them down her sides till they reached the bottom of her top. Brittany looked up to make sure Santana wasn't going to protest when she didn't, Brittany dragged the thin piece of material up and over the brunette's head. Once it was removed Brittany took a moment to just appreciate the girl beneath her. She gently traced her fingers along her toned stomach feeling her tremble at her touch.
Feeling slightly exposed Santana gently tugged at Brittany's own top. The blonde smiled and nodded then helped Santana remove it. They were both now sitting up with Brittany still on Santana's lap as they just looked at one another. Feeling slightly bold, Brittany moved her hands to her back and undid the clasp of her bra. Her heart was pounding in her chest she was so nervous. But Santana didn't make a move for her to stop so she didn't. Taking a deep breath Brittany slowly removed her bra, Santana tried to keep her eyes above Brittany's neck but she couldn't help herself.
"You can touch me if you want" Brittany softly told her
Santana gulped and slightly nodded. Her hands were shaking and she tried to make her heart stop beating so fast and for her breathing to go back to normal. She moved her hand up but hesitated when she reached Brittany's chest. Her hand just sort of hang there mid-air slightly shaking. She couldn't bring herself to do it so Brittany did it for her. She wrapped her hand around Santana's and placed it on her chest. The Latina let out a soft moan when she came into contact with Brittany's breast and from then on she was on autopilot.
Santana could not get over how amazing and right this all felt, sure it terrified her but it also made her feel good in a bold move she slowly leant forward and placed a delicate kiss to Brittany's chest causing the blonde's breath to hitch and then let out a soft moan.
"Do you want me to stop?" Santana asked hesitantly
Brittany just shook her head; Santana nodded and then brought her lips to the blonde's chest again. Brittany brought her hands up to tangle her fingers in Santana's hair to keep her in place. Both girls could feel the tell-tale signs that what they were doing was working them up as they could feel the evidence quite clearly by their soaked panties. Brittany moved her hands from Santana's head and dragged them to reach around her back to unclasp the Latina's bra Santana was oblivious to Brittany's movements as she was far too distracted by the blonde's boobs and what she was doing to them. When Brittany began to pull the straps over Santana's arms the Latina then realised what was happening. She reluctantly pulled away so she could get rid of the barrier that was constricting them. Once it was finally removed Brittany couldn't help but stare in awe, Santana blushed slightly under Brittany's gaze.
"Your boobs are awesome" Brittany mumbled
Santana couldn't help but giggle, it was such a Brittany thing to say…and she looked so adorable when she said it. The blonde looked up when she heard Santana giggle and just smiled at the brunette.
Brittany brought her hand up to gently cup Santana's cheek as her thumb lazily traced her cheekbone. The blonde bit her bottom lip nervously as she tried to find the courage to say what she was about to say.
"Santana…I…I want you…to be my first" She softly mumbled
The Latina looked up into her eyes and she could not put into words the way she was feeling right now.
"I want you to be my first too" She replied with a shy smile
Brittany smiled back
"We're really going to do this?" She asked
Santana nervously nodded. Brittany leaned forward to capture Santana's lips with her own and gently pushing her to lie back down on her bed. When their bare chests first came into contact they both let out a moan. Neither of them really knew what they were doing so they just went with what felt right.
The girls stayed like that for a long time, just gently exploring each other's body Brittany found that she absolutely adored Santana's boobs and if it were legal she would totally like marry them or something. Santana just loved the feeling of Brittany touching her all over she was soft and gentle and she just never wanted it to end. Brittany made her feel like her whole body was on fire she desperately wanted more of what she didn't quite know but she did know that she wanted it. Brittany was feeling the same so she moved her hands down to Santana's shorts and gently tugged at them but their bodies were too close for her to get them down the Latina's legs without having to move so she did the next best thing. Brittany shifted her position by slipping her thigh in between Santana's legs then rocked her hips making her thigh hit her centre. Both girls moaned Santana because it felt so good and Brittany because she could feel Santana soaked completely through.
Brittany continued to gently rock her hips and Santana soon began to meet her midway. Their breathing started to become more ragged.
"I…Britt…I need…" Santana groaned
"What do you need?" Brittany panted
"More…baby I need more" Santana replied
Brittany paused, that had been the very first time Santana had ever called her 'baby' and it just made Brittany's heart swell. Nearly forgetting what the brunette asked Brittany quickly moved to get rid of her own shorts and underwear before she did the same to Santana. Both girls took a moment to fully look at each other completely exposed. It was the most intense and erotic moment of their lives. Brittany slowly lowered herself back into her original position, Santana let out a loud groan when their wet clits made first contact. It was all too much for the poor Latina and with one swift rock of her hips she came. Her whole body shook with please as Brittany watched in fascination. Santana slammed her eyed closed as her body came down. She was totally humiliated and couldn't help the few tears that began to fall. Brittany got worried
"Sanny why are you crying?" She softly asked
"Because…"She sniffed
"Is it because you…you know?" Brittany asked
Santana could only nod
"It's ok…I read in Cosmo that girls can have like lots of them" Brittany said soothingly
"Really?" She asked sadly
Brittany nodded and gave her a comforting smile.
"You're not mad?" She hesitantly asked
"No silly" The blonde giggled
"But…" Santana mumbled
Brittany knew that Santana was embarrassed, she knew that the Latina hated being vulnerable and to be seen as weak so she soothed her fears with her sweet lady kisses and soon enough their hips started moving once again and this time Santana lasted a lot longer. As they reached their climax together Brittany made sure to look directly into Santana's eyes it would be the only time in the next year that it would happen. While during her denial phase Santana refused to make eye contact when they would have sex. It was only when she made them an official couple that she looked into Brittany's eyes.
As they rode out their orgasms together Brittany rolled off to cuddle into Santana's side. They didn't say anything but they didn't need to. Santana wrapped her arms around her best friend giving her a gentle kiss on the forehead before they both feel asleep.
Maria and Jethro Lopez arrived home late that night and quietly entered their home both were pleased that the two teens hadn't made a mess downstairs. Jethro told his wife to go check on the girls while he made them a drink before bed. Maria nodded and made her way up the stairs towards her daughter's bedroom.
She could hear the faint sounds of the TV still playing. It was just after midnight and they should be in bed asleep. So Maria turned the doorknob and quietly entered her daughter's room. What she saw was a total shock...but then again it kind of wasn't. Maria was no fool she knew her baby girl was different. She saw the way she would look at her best friend and she just knew there was more than friendship between them. When she first started to notice it she was shocked and a part of her was heartbroken because she would never get to see her baby girl get married and have a family...little did she know the irony of that thought as it did indeed happen though not because of the reasons she was thinking of at that moment. But as time went on Maria learnt to accept that this was just who her daughter was and that she still loved her and would always love her. She just could never...ever let her husband find out.
Maria stood there as the shock wore off at seeing her daughter in bed with another girl and it being so obviously clear on what they had been doing she quickly turned the TV off and headed out of the room quietly closing the door behind her. She was startled when she saw her husband moving towards her.
"They're sleeping" She quickly spoke her heart was beating fast hoping that he hadn't seen anything.
Jethro just nodded and handed Maria her drink then headed to their bedroom. Maria let out her breath that she was holding and took a drink to stop her hands from shaking. She looked back at the closed door of her daughter's room and sighed.
"Oh Santana" she softly murmured before she made her way to her own room.
In an ideal world Santana woke up the next morning feeling happy and relaxed and in love but in reality Santana woke up feeling like her whole world was about to crash down around her. What had she done? How could she let herself do this? How could she do this to her best friend? No one can ever know! I'm not gay! In a word Santana panicked.
She quickly got up and started to get dressed the movement and sounds woke the sleeping blonde up. Now in an ideal world Brittany would be ecstatic about last night and in reality she was. It was everything she had hoped it would be. But she knew better, she had no doubt in her mind that Santana would freak out. She sadly watched the Latina fight with her clothes that she hurried to put back on trying to erase what had happened that night. She could feel the blonde's eyes watching her and Santana's heart sank. She really didn't want to do this but she knew it was for the best for both of them...just until they were finished with school and they could leave Lima. Without turning to look at her friend...Santana knew she was a coward, she finally spoke.
"Get dressed Britt...we have to go to Cheerios practice" She mumbled with no emotion in her voice
But Brittany couldn't let it go
"Santana...last night-"
"Didn't happen" Santana quickly cut her off
And that was the first time Santana actually broke Brittany's heart as well as her own.
Brittany sat there willing her tears not to fall.
"Can you pass me my uniform?" Brittany asked her voice void of any emotion which just made Santana's heart hurt even more.
The Latina nodded and picked up Brittany's Cheerios uniform then placed it on the bed avoiding any eye contact with the blonde before she left her bedroom without another word.
"You know I cried my eyes out once you closed that door" Brittany mumbled
Santana nodded as she wiped away her tears that had fallen
"I heard you...it broke my heart to hear you cry like that." She replied softly
Brittany reached over and wiped the remaining tears that were on her wife's cheeks.
"But it all worked out" the blonde smiled
"We got our happy ending" She added
Santana nodded as she sniffed
"No more tears Bubbles"
"I love you Brittany" Santana said as she looked up into those blue eyes
She just smiled back
"I love you too Santana" she replied before she leant in and kissed her.
You see even though Santana would deny it till the cows came home and then she would even tell the cows that it wasn't true…but Santana is and always has been a very self-conscious girl who just wanted to be loved and accepted for who she is. Not many get to see the real Santana…some have come close but no one has seen the real her…with Brittany being the only exception. That's why Santana loves her so. Brittany knows her inside and out and still she wants to be there by her side, she still loves her and she always will.
