February 19, 2013 – Santana Lopez movie night with friends
"Santana, this is that actress I was telling you about" Kurt said as he leaned over to me during the movie.
I didn't respond. Honestly I have no idea what this movie is even called. Kurt, Rachel, and Quinn insisted that I come see it with them but, I could care less about the plot.
"Santana? Oh whatever you are hopeless."
I am actually texting Brittany right now and I know people always say don't text during a movie but come on, I mean who doesn't. I have actually been texting her a lot since our lunch. There is just something about her that keeps me interested and coming back for more, unlike this dumb-ass movie. I can't really explain why I like her so much, or why I feel so close to her so soon, it just seems like we were meant to be really good friends.
February 20, 2013 – Santana Lopez and manager Quinn Fabray stop by Tennman headquarters Wednesday
"Now you're actually going to pay attention in this meeting right? You're not going to be obsessively texting Brittany right? Santana!?" Quinn asks as we walk towards the office.
"First of all I'm not "obsessively" texting her and second yes Fabray I will pay attention to fucking Jim Font, it's not like his fucking opinion should matter anyway" I say angrily.
"I know how you feel about Font, but he's your boss, so figure out a less confrontational way to tell him you don't give a damn what her thinks and in the meantime just suck it up and pretend to listen."
Quinn was right there is nothing I can do to change the fact that he has power in this situation.
I realize we have reached the elevators so I figure I ought to say goodbye to Brittany before Quinn goes all controlling mother on my ass.
TO BRITTANY: Hey I have to go because I am about to go into a meeting, but would you like to come to a game night thing at my friend Quinn's house tomorrow? It will be really fun.
I'm not really sure why I invited her I just feel like I need to talk to her and see her and be near her.
FROM BRITTANY: If you'll be there I am down for anything.
"Are you blushing? Why? Santana! You never blush!" Quinn squeals, trying to snatch my phone.
God the things that blonde does to me.
February 21, 2013 – Santana Lopez grabs takeout before visiting friends
I made my way into Quinn's house carrying the food I had brought over for our traditional Thursday game night. Once a month, on a Thursday Quinn, Rachel, Kurt, Kurt's boyfriend Blaine, and I get together for game night. Usually it is just really laid back and casual, but tonight my heart is beating out of my chest and it's because I invited Brittany to join us.
I walk into the kitchen expecting it to just be Quinn and Rachel and maybe the boys but there stand Quinn, Rachel, and Brittany. Quinn is smiling and Rachel is laughing next to her, and I can't help but smile at the fact that this woman has already charmed the crap out of my two best friends. She really is something.
"Hey Santana" Rachel greets in between more laughter.
Brittany immediately turns around and I am met again with those gorgeous blue eyes and that beautiful smile that lights up a room.
"Hey!" I say setting down the food and turning to hug Rachel and Quinn and finally Brittany.
She puts her arms around me and hugs me and I realize this is our first hug. It's perfect, except for the fact that it ends way too soon. I hear the front door open and close and the unmistakable voices of Kurt and Blaine, Quinn and Rachel have already left the room and are calling for us to come join them so that we can play some games.
"I guess we better go" I hear myself say. But the words are meaningless because I don't want to go. I don't ever want to leave her arms. Lopez! Come on! Get a grip this is not the time to be moving at 100 mph.
"Yeah" Brittany says a little lackluster.
We go into the room to find everyone sitting around the coffee table with a Monopoly board in the middle. I notice a seat by Blaine and a seat by Rachel. I sit next to Blaine, so that I am across from the remaining seat next to Rachel. Brittany sits down and the game starts.
Now I know that I am a competitive person and that sometimes I get really into things and it's kind of funny to watch but Brittany smiled at me the whole game. That smile that makes me feel comforted and warm.
Kurt goes bankrupt about thirty minutes in, and then Blaine goes, and then Rachel, and then Quinn, and then it's just me and Brittany. She has five hotels and before I know it I am absolutely broke leaving Brittany as the winner. Usually I would be kind of pissed off that I lost but right now, I feel fine knowing that I lost to the girl with the vibrant blue eyes.
We all realize how late it is and decide to part ways for the night. I walk Brittany out to her car. I want to ask her out again, but I want it to be just us this time, but I am worried that it will freak her out and make her think we are moving too fast. Before I can even come to a decision Brittany speaks.
"Hey I had a lot of fun tonight, thanks for inviting me. Quinn and Rachel are a lot of fun." She laughs, my heart flutters. "I want to see you again soon, I mean if that's what you want.."
"It is" I say. I don't want her to doubt my feelings for her. I just have to figure out what those are.
