February 27, 2013 – Santana Lopez stops by Tennman headquarters
God that date. That food. That girl. That smile. Those eyes. (great song idea) But really I can't get her out of my head. It's like no matter how many other things I should probably be focusing on she is the only one I actually care about. Like this meeting, we are supposed to be going over the things I can and can't talk about on my press tour (that's why Rachel's here instead of Quinn) but instead I am sitting here listening to fucking Jim Font drone on and on about how I should avoid talking about being gay. He's such a prick! So instead of taking it seriously I just let my mind wander once again to the beautiful blonde with the blue eyes that look like the ocean. That girl.
March 5, 2013 – Santana Lopez and Brittany Pierce movie night
A movie night with Brittany is basically my equivalent of heaven. A dark theater where no one can recognize us as celebrities, popcorn, candy, soda, and Brittany of course. Honestly I could kind of care less about the movie, I would watch anything if Britt was sitting next to me. But I picked out World War Z thinking it would be just scary enough that she might want to hold my hand or something and just distracting enough so that no one would look around and see Santana Lopez and Brittany Pierce sitting in the back row.
That's one of the things I have really had to adjust to now that I am famous. People are always recognizing me, whether it's in a bar, or a gas station, or a park, they always seem to figure out it's me and then all they want to do is get pictures and autographs. It usually doesn't bother me much but it's not exactly ideal for a date. Anyway nowadays I have to sneak into the theatre after the trailers have already started and sit at the very, very back.
And that's where I am right now, the very, very back of a dark movie theater with Brittany. Heaven.
The movie starts. We're about fifteen minutes into it and even I am sitting on the edge of my seat, slightly apprehensive about what's going to happen next. I feel Brittany take my hand as jumps of the roof, reaching for the helicopter. I give it a quick squeeze. I want her to know that I will always be here to hold her hand when she's scared, whether it is because of a movie, or a crowd, or fucking aliens. I just want to hold her hand.
The movie finishes and Brittany slowly brings her head out of the crook of my neck. Honestly I hadn't even noticed she had done that. I loved it. We wait till everyone else has left the theater and then we walk to my car together.
"I picked too scary of a movie didn't I? I am so sorry Britt! I didn't realize it would be that intense…"
"Santana stop" she says as she reaches for my hand. "I loved it, it just gave me a chance to cuddle up to you and I can't complain about that" she says with a wink.
I blush and squeeze her hand again as we walk back to the car. We hold hands the rest of the way back to the car, and I feel empty when we finally have to separate to get in the car.
I drive her home. We get to her door and she slowly pulls me into a hug. This time there is no confusion when we both pull out of the hug only to dive back in for a kiss. It's soft and sweet and meaningful. Just like Brittany.
