Santana flinched when an arm reached out and slammed her locker shut. She knew who it was without even having to turn around. She could smell his cologne. A wave of nausea swept over her and she braced herself as if for a blow. She said nothing, just waited for him to throw an insult or a threat at her, its what he had been doing since the night it happened. She couldn't even force herself to say the word afraid that her strength would falter and she would start to cry and not be able to stop.

" You know Lopez, Brittany is sure looking hot today maybe I'll ask her to duet with me then we'd have to practice all alone"

Santana's eyes widene, and she twirled around, " don't you touch her" she threatened through clinched teeth. He only smirked at her, and stepped closer pressing her back against the lockers, " then I guess you'll have to help me, meet me under the bleachers after glee, or I'll hurt her Santana"

She looked up at him and dipped her head in acknowledgement. HE smiled a dark smile before replacing it with his normally goofy grin as he moved away from her and down the hallway.

Brittany bounded up to her then, her eyes shinning as she started to babble about something that had happened in cheerio practice, which Santana was in trouble for missing. She smiled at Brittany and thought to herself she would do what ever it took to keep the light from leaving Brittany face. Even if it meant taking whatever Finn Hudson threw her way.
