It had been over three weeks since Brittany had come to New York and started living with Santana. They were in a great place, everyone, except Puck, knew that Brittany was alive, though only Santana, Mercedes, Sam, Kurt, Blaine and Rory had seen her, everyone else had only talked to her. Kyle's fourth birthday party was in a week and everyone was coming, including Mr. Schue, Ms. Pillsbury, Santana's parents, Brittany's parents, Brittany's brother and the Glee Club. They we're all staying in a variety of the homes of the Glee Club in New York. Santana's and Brittany's families were staying with them in Santana's apartment. Tina and Mike were staying with Sam and Mercedes, Mr. Schue and Emma were staying with Finn and Rachel, Quinn, Sugar, and Artie were staying with staying with Kurt and Blaine.
They were all already in New York or getting there tonight. Everyone was coming to Santana's tonight to see Brittany and for dinner. There were going to be 23 people in the apartment, it was a good thing that it was a huge place. Santana and Brittany were currently getting food set up and Kyle was watching TV in the living room with Kevin. Brittany's and Santana's parents were out shopping for drinks and other food. They should be back soon, and everyone would be there by seven.
"Hey Tana!" Kevin called from the living room.
"Sup?" Santana called back as she and Brittany continued to get the food ready.
"Come here for a second!" he called back.
"Coming," she yelled to the 19 year old. "Finish up will ya Britt?"
"Sure," Brittany said and Santana walked into the living room to find her son fast asleep on his Uncle Kevin's lap.
"When did he fall asleep?" Santana asked glancing at the clock on the TV which read 4:45, she really wanted him up when everyone got here.
"Like twenty minutes ago, I was gonna wake him but he sleeps like a freaking rock." Kevin said.
"Well you can carry him into his room if you want because then he'll be up in a few hours and stay up for everyone, then you can help your parents and mine when they get here because I'm sure they have a ton of stuff." Santana said.
"Alright Tana." Kevin said unenthusiastically.
Santana's and Brittany's parents arrived back at the apartment around half past six with all sorts of food and drinks. Kevin and Brittany helped them bring everything up while Santana got Kyle up and changed and styled his hair in his favorite way, spikes all over. Once she finally got him all ready it was just about seven and everything was set up. Finn, Rachel, Will and Emma were the first to arrive, they all practically tackled Brittany.
"BRITTANY!" Mike yelled as he and Tina came into the apartment followed by Sam and Mercedes. Mike tackled her into a hug.
"Nice to see you to Michael." Santana said sarcastically as she hugged Tina.
"SANTANA!" Mike said with mock enthusiasm and hugged her as Tina hugged Brittany.
Rory arrived a few minutes later and quickly made his way over to the Pierces. A few minutes later Kurt and Blaine arrived with Artie, Sugar and Quinn in tow. Kurt and Blaine moved aside so that that the other three could get to Brittany. Sugar dramatically flung herself into Brittany's arms, she then bent down and gave Artie a hug. Quinn however stood there staring at her, she hadn't talked to her on the phone at all. She was looking at Brittany with a strange, unreadable expression on her face.
"Brittany." she said in a strange voice and then nodded to her and walked right by without any further acknowledgment.
"Um, what was that about?" Brittany asked Santana as she and a few others who were around her stared after Quinn confused.
"I'm not sure, I should go talk to her." Santana said with a frown.
"No, I think that I should go." Brittany said following after Quinn. "Quinn?" she asked as she found her on the terrace.
"Brittany." she said again, staring out into the New York skyline.
"Quinn what's up?" Brittany asked, she was both confused and concerned.
"What's up? What's up? Six years of comforting Santana over the fact that you are dead. Six years of her sobbing into my arms, over skype, over the phone. Did you know that I spent almost every night at her house in senior year because she couldn't sleep, even after I had my accident I still went over there. It wasn't even just me, it was Mercedes, Tina, Rachel, Sugar, Kurt, Blaine, Puck, for god sake Puck changed into a different person, everyone! We finally got her to come back to school a week after your funeral and she wasn't even Santana anymore. She quit Cheerios, she didn't throw around insults anymore, she called Rachel Rachel! She sat in the back of the choir room day after day after day watching everyone sing solos, not even bothering to fight for them anymore. We gave her solos and she sang them but she just sat back down when she was done and was silent again." Quinn said, her voice was raised, she wasn't yelling but Brittany could tell how angry she was.
"Quinn, I-"
"No, I am not done! That was all just Santana, she wasn't the only one affected by your death! We were best friends Brittany! Best friends! I was very cut up too! I was devastated, we all were! There was one day were we all just sat in the choir room and cried, even Mr. Schue!" Quinn said, her voice was slightly louder now but no one inside seemed to notice.
"Quinn, I know, I do! Trust me, I wanted nothing more than for everyone to know that I was fine, especially San, and you too! I did, but I was being hunted Quinn, they were after me and had any of you gotten involved you would have been in danger. Look at what happened to me!" Brittany said showing Quinn all the scars she had.
"Britt, I'm sorry I got angry with you but I found out you were alive and I was just so pissed that you hadn't told me or San! And then I get here and see you and it just brought back so many memories, but god I'm so glad that you are alive!" Quinn finally said after staring at Brittany's scars for a moment. She then flung herself into Brittany's arms and hugged her tightly.
"We should-" Brittany started but was interrupted by Santana screaming from inside.
"OH MY GOD!" They heard Santana scream and they ran back into Santana's apartment in time to hear her say, "Puck!"
In the doorway to the apartment stood Noah Puckerman. He was wearing his Army uniform and his head was tan and bald. Santana threw herself into his arms while he laughed, everyone else began to gather around him as well.
"Hey there San, you didn't think I would miss Kyle's birthday did ya?" he asked then he saw something that made his eyes bug out of his head as he released Santana.
Brittany knew that he was staring at her and so did everyone else who was there.
"Hi Puck." she said with a smirk.
"Brittany?"
What did you think? Was Quinn to harsh? Should I make Puck faint? Good? Bad? Review?
