Once I gathered my thoughts I started yelling for a nurse in seconds a whole team of people came rushing in.

"She squeezed my hand. Like actually squeezed it. Why isn't she waking up? Doesn't that mean she's awake? Can some-" The doctor cut me off by putting her hands on my shoulders.

"Miss Lopez. I understand that this had been hard for you but is there any way you imagined this happening?" I took a step back and felt my jaw drop. Did she just ask me that?

"Are you calling me crazy? No I DID NOT IMAGINE THIS!" I started yelling at the doctor for her accusations. "I was holding her hand had while I was singing, like I do every night and when I went to kiss her head she squeezed my hand. I know I didn't imagine it. I felt it, I felt her." I saw sobbing now. I placed my hands over my face and sat in the chair beside her. Did it actually happen? Yes I'm damn sure of it.

A few hours and scans and tests later the doctor came in with donuts and coffee. Looked almost like a peace offering.

"I'm sorry about upsetting you earlier, but it does happen. People want it to happen so badly that the mind plays sick tricks on them." she handed me a coffee and put the box of donuts on a food tray. "I do come bearing good news, the has been an increase in brain activity. Almost like she's thinking and dreaming." My head perked up at the doctors words. "Now don't get excited just yet. It's a good thing, yes but she still isn't awake. But whatever you are doing is helping. More than you think it is." And with that being said the doctor snagged a few donuts out of the box and left the room.

She was getting better. My heart jumped a bit in excitement. Maybe today wasn't all bad. I stayed the night by Dani's side all night.

Dani's pov

That voice was heavenly. Like how an angel would sound. I remember that voice... but where do I know it from...

Santana's pov

I woke up with a kink in my neck from sleeping on the chair. I really needed to sleep in my bed more often. I stood up and stretched my arms out. When my eyes landed on Dani I noticed her smiling. I missed her smile and the way it could literally light an entire room up. I wonder what she's thinking about.

I left the hospital with a smile on my face as well. I decided to go home and clean up. When I got in the door I dropped my purse on the ground and walked into the kitchen. I opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of wine. Since I was the only one drinking from it I decided that I didn't need a glass and drank it from the bottle. I turned my laptop on and checked my email. After going through ones for work I saw Quinn had sent me one. What could she possibly want. I opened it.

San,

I know we haven't talked in a while but Rach told me about Dani. I'm sorry and you know I am always here for you. She also mentioned you've been drinking a lot. Please don't go down that path. What would Dani think?

Love,

Quinn

That fucking bitch. I am going to kill that hobbit. Who the hell did she think she was. I don't have a drinking problem. Do I? I looked at the wine bottle in my hand and the several empty bottles littered across the kitchen. I don't think it's a crime to have a drink after a long exhausting day. I took a drink from the bottle and went to the living room and sat on the couch. I spent the next few hours sipping my wine and thinking about Dani till my phone started to ring.

I got up and gripped the arm of the couch to keep my balance. How much did I drink? I saw an empty bottle sitting on the coffee table. I stumbled over to my purse and answered it without looking at it.

"Hello?" I asked with a slight slur.

"Are you drunk? Jeez Santana what did I say to you? Don't you ever listen?"

"Quinn? Ugh.. what do you want? I'm kinda busy." I wasn't but I figured it was the easiest way to get her to leave me alone.

"Don't lie to me San, I know your drunk, sitting on the floor thinking about Dani." Damn she knew me well.

"What do you want then?" I was losing my patience.

"You need to get a hold on yourself. I know you drink yourself to sleep at night, Dani would be disappointed." I grabbed another bottle of wine, this time getting a glass.

"Don't you dare speak her name!" And with that I hung up.

I sat on the floor of the kitchen with my glass of wine and started to cry. I tries to keep thoughts of how happy I was when Dani was around. Those memories always hurt so much. I sat there for a while just crying. My phone had been ringing non stop but I knew it was either Rachel, Kurt or Quinn and I was not in the mood to talk to them.

I had dozed off on the kitchen floor when I felt someone smack me. My eyes shot open. Rachel.

"What the hell was that for Midget?" I felt my face heat up in anger.

"Are you drunk?" She look furious. I put my head in my hand and let out a sigh.

"I don't.. k-know..what to do without her. It just make it easier if I drink." She sat down beside me and put her arm around my shoulders.

"Dani loves you and wouldn't want you to do this to yourself. You gotta be strong, be the Santana Lopez I grown to love. Fierce and bold, strong and protects what she loves. Dani is going to be coming home soon, I know it. So you gotta be the best you for her." She stood up. "Come on get up." She held her hand out to help me up.

"Why? Where are we going?" I stood up and brushed my self off giving Rachel a hasty look. She leads me the front door and starts to put her shoes on.

"Just trust me. Now lets go Satan." She head out the door to her car. "I'm driving since you are still a little tipsy." I roll my eyes at her and get in her car.

About 30 minuets later she parks the car. I get out and it looks very familiar but I can't put my finger on it. Rachel grabs my hand and leads me to the front of an empty building. The diner.

"Gunther is selling it and I'm buying it." She starts to jump up and down and clap.

My eyes went wide. "Seriously? Like you owning a place that serves food to people? That will be interesting." I looked through the window and I could see the table where I first laid my eyes on Dani. She was so confident and I was a hot mess. A small smile crept across my face and Rachel gave me a small nudge.

"So what do ya say? Once Dani gets on her feet working is going to be hard, but if you want you can work from home for me or with me?" I placed my head on her shoulder. "I know you love your job but I also know that it tough to find talent from your house and I know Dani would love this." Rachel had a point. This was where it all started.

"Okay." I spoke after a few minutes of thinking it over.

"Really?" She looked at me stunned. "I totally thought you would say I'm crazy or something."

"Well you are crazy but I like the idea and between you and me this place would be the best diner in the city." I smiled at my short friend who gave me a hug. "On one condition though." She stepped back from me and I could tell she was trying to hide her excitement. "I get do fire people that I don't like" She rolled her eyes at me.

"As much as I agree with that, with you having your Mexican third eye and all there are laws against just firing people. But knowing you like I do you will find a way sooooo it's a deal" She started to jump up and down again.

"Be here tomorrow at noon to sign the paper." She hugged me again.

"Okay Hobbit, as much as I love this I want to go home, I've had a long day."
