Dani walks into her History class and sits down in the back of the class. Hearing the bell ring, the teacher walks in and Dani smiles seeing Mr. Schue.
"Alright class, it's time for me to assign you your lockers." Assigning them their lockers, Dani is the last one on the list. Putting her books in her locker, Dani goes back into the room and takes her seat, "Now we will review what you did last year." Handing out work sheets, Dani immediately gets to work and listens to her music while doing so.
At the end of the class, Dani looks at the piece of paper that is her timetable and reads it.
History, Art, Glee, Drama, French, Spanish, Geography, Science.
Heading to her locker, Dani opens it and pulls out her Art books from last year.
"Hey baby." Looking beside her, she smiles seeing Santana.
"Hey, now you know where my locker is." Dani teases. Santana chuckles and kisses her on the lips.
"That I do." Santana wraps her arms around Dani and laces their hands together, "I love you."
"I love you too." Gently kissing Dani's neck, Santana leaves her mark causing Dani to moan softly. Kissing up her neck, Santana kisses her lips just as the warning bell rings.
"I have Art." Santana whispers against Dani lips.
"So do I." Feeling Santana pull her closer, Santana takes the Art books and pencil case before shutting the locker.
"Let's go then." Santana carries Dani's books and pencil case, wrapping her right arm around her girlfriend's shoulders lacing their hands together.
Arriving to Art, Santana and Dani take the same seats they had last year as the bell rings.
"Welcome second year students to grade ten Art. And please welcome Santana Lopez, my teacher's assistant." Watching her girlfriend stand up, Dani claps with a smile on her face. Santana sits back down and kisses Dani's cheek, lacing their hands under the table. As Ms. Harp speaks Dani draws in her sketchbook resting her head on Santana's shoulder.
As Ms. Harp sets them an assignment, Dani and Santana starts to work on it silently letting go of each other's hands and Dani sits up. Santana places her left hand on Dani's leg and Dani puts her left hand on top playing with her fingers. Peeking at each other, they smile before kissing each other quickly.
"No PDA in the classroom ladies." Ms. Harp calls out catching them. Blushing, Dani looks down and gets back to work as Santana rolls her eyes and kisses Dani's cheek.
"Screw that, I can kiss you any time, any where, all the time for all I care." Santana whispers to Dani before kissing her ear.
"Kiss me after you finish the assignment." Dani whispers back.
"Deal." Santana is the first one who finishes the assignment and hands in Dani's as well, who is second. The second Santana sits down, she leans over to Dani and kisses her on the lips. Immediately deepening the kiss, Dani holds Santana's arm for support to keep her from falling off the stool.
"Ladies, break it up or go to see Principal Sue." Ms. Harp snaps at them. Freezing mid-kiss, they pull away and looks at her confused.
"Principal Sue? Dani's mom is now the principal?" Santana asks.
"Yes. Now go see her. Both of you." Dani nods and pack her things as Santana stays seated confused.
"How did she do it?"
"Come on Santana, we have to go." Dani pulls on Santana's hand softly which gets her to get up and pack her things.
"Did you know she is now the principal?" Santana asks as they walk to the office.
"No. She kept it from me." Dani answers a bit pissed. Arriving to the office, they walk in with permission and sit down after closing the door.
"Is it a good thing or a bad thing you are here, Dani?" Sue asks sitting down in front of them.
"Bad." Dani shrugs her shoulders, "We learned we can't kiss in class."
"We didn't already know that?" Sue chuckles.
"It's a stupid rule. Mostly because they allow guys and girls to kiss but not guys and guys or girls and girls. Discrimination much."
"Dani, as much as I agree with you, I'm sure that's not why your teacher sent you here."
"I know. Ms. Harp is a lesbian and her and her girlfriend have two daughters. Both older and in college. She's just trying to protect Santana and I."
"Exactly. Protect you both from haters and discrimination that she knows so well."
"Why didn't you tell me you are now the principal?" Dani glares.
"Don't glare at me young lady." Seeing her daughter not stop, Sue crosses her arms and glares back, "I don't have to tell you everything, Danielle."
"This is major, Suzanne."
"Danielle, do not use my name."
"Then don't use mine, mommy dearest." Dani snaps.
"You are grounded when we get home."
"Too bad I can't be home until dinner. Santana and I have an Art project to work on for Ms. Harp." Dani lies.
"As soon as you are home for dinner you are grounded."
"Fine." Dani crosses her own arms and looks around the office, "Can we leave now and go to Glee early?"
"Stop giving me attitude and you may go."
Faking a smile, Dani nods, "See you later mommy dearest."
~S&D~
After Santana drops Dani off at Paul's, Santana waits for Dani is inside and sends her a text message telling her she is inside the apartment. Arriving home, Santana parks the car and charges her phone while doing homework, waiting for Dani to message her telling her to pick her up.
As six comes around, Santana gets worried and texts Dani.
I'm coming to pick you up. I love you.
Driving to the apartment, Santana parks and walks into the building using the paper that Dani wrote the apartment address to guide her.
Knocking on the door, the door opens on it's own. Stepping into the apartment everything is bare and looks like no one lives there. On the counter, there is a piece of paper with blood on it.
Sue,
If you want Danielle back alive you better do as I say. Call me when you realize Danielle is kidnapped.
Santana gasps with tears in her eyes. Quickly running out to her car, she drives to Dani's house and knocks on the door loudly.
Sue opens the door and is surprised to see Santana there crying.
"Where's Dani?" Sue asks but Santana doesn't answer, she just hands her the note. Sue reads it and allows Santana in, "She saw Paul didn't she? Her dad?"
Santana nods and just cries.
"It's my fault, I drove her over there." Sue sighs and kneels down in front of Santana pulling her hands away from her face.
"It's not your fault Santana. Dani would have taken the bus to get there. You did the right thing by coming here and telling me. Now let me call the police and get you a glass of water."
When Sue returns, Santana cries into her shoulder until there is a knock on the door. Looking up as Sue opens it, Santana sees the police standing there. Explaining her story of her dropping off Dani and showing the text messages, and giving them Dani's cell phone number, Santana does all she can to help before heading home.
That night, Santana couldn't fall asleep.
~D&S~
Dani curls up in the corner of the damp basement with Paul, Rose and Karen, she doesn't know who but someone knocked her out as soon as she stepped foot into the apartment after she sent the text message to Santana telling her she is okay.
She is now who-knows-where all because she wanted to see Paul to protect Sue. But she is in this position because of Paul, so it's both of their faults.
Glaring at Paul as she pulls her knees to her chest, Paul glares back at her.
"Don't glare at me or I will come over there and hit you." Paul threatens.
"Nothing will stop me from glaring at you. All of this is your fault." Dani snaps.
"Oh shut the hell up. Dave kidnapping us is because I blackmailed him and won't pay him his money."
"Just pay him."
"I used all of his money to pay for Karen to go to college."
"You are a bastard."
"Well, Paul I have to say, I like this one." A man's voice interrupts.
"That's Danielle. You can have her." Paul smirks.
"Good." The man walks over to Dani and stands her up. Taking her upstairs with her hands tied, he takes her to a bedroom and throws her onto the bed before taking off his clothes. Dani lets out a scream before he takes her clothes off and ties her hands to the headboard.
