Ghosts of our past.
Santana? Was the first thought to cross Quinn's shocked mind followed by she works HERE? She looks so tired. What are the chances. How long has it been?
The words that came out of her mouth were not the same though.
Quinn thought back to a broken Brittany. Her best friend who's heart had been shattered 5 years ago by her other so called best friend who was now in front of naive, trusting blonde who lost her love of dance for months because of the selfish, heartless latina sat in front of her.
Quinn was angry. Beyond angry. She hadn't seen nor heard from santana since graduation, the same day she broke Brittany's heart. "I see you managed to conquer the world Satan...looks like you're doing really well for yourself".
Santana flinched at Quinn's cold tone. If anyone could tear her down, it had always been her Lucy Q.
Her silence seemed to fuel Quinn's anger. "no sassy come back? No slap? Or did you leave that all behind with you're broken girlfriend?". The blonde stepped up to the counter and slapped her palms down hard, shocking the latina.
Santana couldn't bring herself to look Quinn in the eyes. She knew she'd fall apart if she did. Quinn was her best friend. Even if the girl didn't know it. She idolised her through High school, looked out for her when her pregnancy came out by intercepting every slushy possible and scaring the gossips with her sharp words and violent manner, she cried for days at her bedside after her crash, only leaving when she was sure the hazel eyed beauty would pull through. And when she managed to stand during prom she felt pride and relief wash over her.
Nobody knows but she broke down in her bathroom that night because Quinn chose to stand with her, trusted Santana to catch her if she fell...None of this was known to Quinn though. To her santana was a cold heartless bitch.
"SAY SOMETHING DAMN IT!" Again Quinn slammed her hands down.
This time Santana stood, her eyes followed a roll of rainbow mentos that rolled to the floor , dislodged from it's shelf by Quinn's angry actions .
A colleague who had heard the commotion appeared behind the counter and ducked her head to catch her co workers gaze. Gently she placed a hand on Santana's arm "you ok San? Is this customer bothering you?"
She shot a look to Quinn who's chest was heaving slightly then diverted her gaze back to Santana.
The latina sighed and shook her head "no...i...i..j, just don't feel too good..sorry Addy but can you cover the rest of my shift..p,please"
The taller girl sighed and nodded. "Sure thing...between us" She squeezed the tanned girls arm and gently pushed her through the doorway leading to the staff area "i'll swing by and check on you later"
Santana mustered a smile as she slipped further down the corridor. Addison had gotten Santana the job at Bucks fuel and groceries after they met at a bar. She was Santana's only real friend. She was a tall, mousey blonde with green eyes and tattoos, they instantly hit it off despite their differences They had both been hurt and struggled through hard times alone, they understood each other.
The tall mousey blonde girl turned to the now quizzical looking Quinn. "I don't know who you are, but you have no right coming in here and intimidating our staff..let alone my friend, you got me!?".
Quinn raised a perfect eyebrow and smirked "So, are you her girlfriend? She left Britt for you!?" She snarked.
It then clicked for the taller girl "You're Quinn!" She sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose before looking back at the now slightly bewildered girl "look, you actually have no idea about anything. What went down 5 years ago isn't the full story. San needed you and you dropped her like she was nothing!" A moments plus "I honestly don't know why you're here but if it's to hurt San...that's kind of impossible...she's been hurting since she left Ohio. So whatever vendetta you have, just turn around and jog on before I make you regret the last ten minutes of your life!" The athletic girl then hopped over the counter and squared up to the blonde.
"ooh, protective of your little bitch huh!" The words barely left Quinn's mouth before a right hook snapped her head to the side
"WHAT THE FUCK !?" Screamed Quinn as she wiped blood from her now split lip. "I'm going to be pressing charges for that! You're CRAZY!".
The rock chick laughed "go ahead blondie...I don't give a fuck. But i swear, you come near my home girl and i will destroy you. Comphrendi?"
Quinn spat blood on the floor and stormed out of the store.
Addison ran her hands through her hair and sighed. "fuck" she hissed under her breath, knowing she'd probably just lost her job and more importantly that her friend will be hurting so bad right now.
