Thanks for the reviews. I noticed a lot of typos lol. I'm French so English's is not my first language. But thanks for reading. Hope you like this one as well.

I read you liked the Finn plot twist, it was fun to write!

Thanks for reading.

A couple of months passed since Quinn and Finn broke up, Finn stopped hanging out with us which was good and Quinn and I were closer each time. We started hanging out with Puck after school almost everyday but Quinn and Puck had little to no interactions between them. It was like me, hanging out with them, but not really with each other.

Puck said Quinn was kinda boring because she never wanted to drink. One of Puck's shady friends had a bar and we could hang out there. Quinn would go a couple of times but never even had a beer. She still hung out with us and had fun with our drunk asses. We never got really drunk, just tipsy but she had fun.

Quinn had a few dates with the Tinder guy and apparently it was going good, she seemed okay, if she wasn't with me and Puck, she was with her now, boyfriend. That didn't stop her from being her usual flirty self. I was getting tired of it, maybe holding my hand didn't have the same effect on her as it did with me, but she was very aware of it.

This time we were at Puck's friend's bar, she decided to finally have a beer so we were excited. She just drank one but that was enough, she was being too goofy.

-San, did you see that new substitute teacher?

Puck said, and I did, she was hot so I remembered who it was and did what I usually played with Puck.

-Dude! Yes, solid 8.5

-Right?

-8.5? What do you guys mean?

Quinn said.

-Her hotness duh

Puck said as he lit up a cigarette.

-You do that? Just, rate people?

-Yup

We both said in unitone, which made us laugh, probably because of the couple beers we already had. Yeah, I know it's awful to do that but we had fun that way.

-Santana for example, is a 7.5

-7.5? What does that fucking make you? A 5?

I said, a little offended. I knew Puck has a lot of girls lusting over him but I think is more because of his attitude than his appearance. I loved that guy but couldn't find him hot if I tried.

-7.5 is good, more than most girls at school

-Fuck you

-What am I?

Quinn said,

-8

Said puck

-.5 Like 8.5

I corrected him and we both agreed.

-9 is for like a supermodel

Quinn was happy with her rating, she finished her beer and decided to drink some of mine, she was starting to get all touchy feely, and I was tipsy so I just let it happen. She was responding to some of her boyfriend's texts but didn't really see what she was writing, I had her in my arms and was just enjoying the moment.

-Do you think we would make a cute couple?

Quinn asked puck as she played with my hair.

-Hot, yeah, but you're straight.

-I'm not

-Sure you are, otherwise you'd be jumping all over my girl San here . You act just like every other drunk girl. You think that kissing your bestie makes you gay, but no. Is just a cry for attention honestly.

I felt Quinn stiffened up a bit.

-I told her she's straight and she didn't believe me.

-But why do you think you can tell my sexuality?

-We just know

Puck said.

-Besides, you left Finn to go jump in a relationship with whoever your new boyfriend is, you're straight and don't know how to be alone. San would be too good for you anyway.

The whole thing felt awkward. We changed subjects and after a few hours we were all in our homes. I thought for a few days about Quinn's behavior, my feelings and our whole friendship, so I decided to be honest, but through text though.

S: Hey Quinn, I know this is the kind of thing you say face to face but I just have to get it out.

Q: San…

S: Look, I like you, I really do. You make me feel something, and I'm not looking for you to say the same, or even for an answer, I just can't pretend not to like you in that way.

Q: San, I can't do this right now.

S: You don't have to do anything, I just wanted to let you know. And now that you know, please, stop holding my hand, caressing my legs, playing with my hair, cause it doesn't mean the same to me as it does to you.

S: I still want to be friends, don't get me wrong. Just lets let physical touch a side. I can't Quinn, it's fucking me up.

Q: San, I'm with Marc.

Marc was her dumb new boyfriend.

Q: Let's talk about it later.

S: There's nothing to add, Quinn, I just wanted you to know.

Q: I'm sorry.

My heart should be breaking right now, but I was really aware of the outcome. I knew she flirted for fun, she touched me for attention and she wasn't available. I just needed it to stop if I wanted to have a friendship with this girl, so being honest was the way to do it.

The next day at school was a bit awkward to say the least. I walked over to our usual table during lunch, and there she was, pretty as always, she saw me coming and scooched over to make space for me to sit next to her but I just said hi and walked all the other way to sit next to Britt.

Quinn's disappointment was very visible in her face but I had to look after myself and my feelings first. It's not like I ignored her, I just didn't wanna touch her, but we still talked.

-My parents will be out of town this weekend so, Halloween party? Who 's coming?

Everyone got excited, my parties were pretty epic. I told them that no one gets in without a costume tho. The bell rang and everyone walked to class, but Quinn took me aside and asked me to miss this class. I knew we had to talk about it so I did. Brittany hesitated before she went to class, I guess she felt something was going on but I told her I'm fine and that she shouldn't miss this class.

When everyone was gone we found an empty classroom and decided to just be there.

-So, I'm finally going to one of Santana's famous parties.

Quinn said smiling, I noticed she was keeping her distance and although I asked for it my body was aching for her touch, just the slightest, as she usually is.

-What are you dressing up as?

-I have no idea

-Please, no anime.

-Don't worry,

She laughed it off.

-Can I stay over at your house? My mom would not let me go back home in the middle of the night.

-Of course, Quinn some people are staying.

-We're still friends, right?

-Yes, please don't worry bout it

-I just don't wanna lose you San, you're my only friend

I sighed and saw her face, she was about to tear up. Her hands were gripping at her clothes a little too hard, I knew she was tense, I got close to her and decided to just hug her. The way she hugged me back, so tight and full of emotion, made me feel something but I reminded myself that it was nothing more than a friendly hug.

-Look kid, nothing's gonna change, alright?

-Do you promise?

I had already let go of her but she had her face buried on my neck and still holding me.

-I promise. Friends as always.

She finally let go and was looking at me, I could see a thousand questions in her face, but she would never tell. She was too reserved to ever talk about what I told her, or how she even felt about me. And for now, I was fine with that.

The day came and the party was just starting, I was already in my cleopatra costume, Britt and Mercedes were helping me set up snacks and drinks. A few hours passed and everyone was there except for Quinn and Puck. I was having fun but silly me, the thought of Quinn sleeping over had me excited. Then I got her message

Q: Sorry San, I won't make it. My mom is acting crazy,

S: You're good, take care Q.

Since she wasn't coming I decided to get drunk with my friends but Puck was missing too, so I texted him.

S: Dude! Everyone's drunk already, where are you?

P: Did Quinn go?

S: No, why?

P: Thought it would be boring with her there, I'm on my way.

I found it weird, because the three of us hang out a lot but Puck had told me before that he found Quinn boring, still seemed odd but he came to the party, just wearing some fake fangs, low effort as always.

The night was pretty fun, people had crazy costumes, of course the slutty ones too, everyone was drunk, Britt was doing karaoke and doing her best Britney Spears impression. Of course I performed with her too. At least glee club helped me develop my musical talents.

Sam was being very charming that night, he was giving shots for everyone and dancing and just being fun. I missed Quinn honestly but she would be bored. I forget she's not very social, she wouldn't like this many people.

Sam caught me off guard, I was thinking of Quinn for a bit when he came with a drink in hand.

-That drink must be warm by now

He handed me a drink and I replaced mine.

-Yeah, it actually is

-Are you okay? You looked like you were having fun, now you're here, alone.

-Yeah, I was just talking to my mom, telling her everything is fine and I'm not having a party

-Just usual teenage stuff

He smiled. Sam was really charming, like, if I was straight I would totally fall in love with him. I tried to fall in love with him but it just wasn't there.

Some other guys came over and we talked, had fun. Sam was doing some impressions of someone I don't know but he was funny.

Everyone was having fun, Puck gave me a few shots and then I was dancing with Sam, all fun and smiles. I don't remember who had the idea but people were starting to leave, only those who were staying over were left so we decided to spin the bottle.

Basically everyone had to kiss everyone but when I kissed Sam, it felt good, felt familiar, I remember how much I liked his lips, big and soft. We stopped playing, Britt and Mercedes were still doing karaoke, well, barely cause Mercedes was too drunk, Britt sober as always but didn't need anything to have fun, she was fun just like that. Puck was hooking up with some girl, he already knew he had the guest bedroom for himself, Britt and Mercedes would sleep in my room and everyone else could figure it out in the living room.

When I noticed, I was already in my parents bedroom, taking Sam's shirt off. It had been a while since the last time we did it but as I said before, he was really hot and gentle and although he wasn't a great lover, I was used to him so I knew how to make myself come before him. I really hated when guys were done and I'm not even starting.

We hooked up, and although we were super drunk we were pretty aware of what we were doing so we used protection. It was good, better than the last few times we hooked up, he for sure had learned a few new things.

When we were done, we just cuddled and fell asleep. I felt safe with Sam. Everything about him was safe, but he wasn't the one I wanted.

I woke up with the worst hangover, with my head in Sam's chest but my first thought was Quinn. Fuck that, I hated myself for that. She doesn't like me that way, why can I just let it go? I had to get out of bed and clear my head.

I fixed breakfast for everyone, I was okay. I knew that Sam wouldn't get clingy or anything, he already knew how it all worked. We hooked up, barely talked after and hooked up months later again. with him there was no need for more.

The weekend passed and you know how it is, everyone was talking about the party and how drunk they were, who hooked up with who and just recaps of the party.

-So, Sam? I saw you and Santana reviving your romance. Are you guys getting back together?

Mike asked him and I immediately felt Quinn's eyes like daggers on me. I kinda wanted her to find out and see if she gets jealous, or for her to notice I got options. I couldn't even hear Sam's response, all I could focus on was Quinn staring at me, looking for answers or whatever was going on in her head.

-You told me you guys broke up

Quinn said in this accusatory tone that I was just not having it.

-We did, it was just a random hook up

-Is that something you do?

She asked again, more demanding than before.

-I'm single, I was at a party. What's the big deal?

-Yes Quinn, what's the big deal?

Brittany asked her and I noticed that we were the center of attention, Sam was too quiet now and Quinn had this ice cold face, you couldn't tell what she was feeling.

-I was just curious

-You should've been there, it was fun.

I knew what Britt was doing, without needing to talk about it. She knew Quinn and I had something going on, whatever the hell it was, but that attitude, in front of everyone, so fucking entitled, we weren't having it. I love to know Britt will always have my back.

-I guess…

Quinn said.

-Yeah, did you have plans with your new boyfriend? Or why didn't you make it?

Britt again, making a statement that Quinn has a fucking boyfriend and I don't owe her shit.

-I just couldn't go, anyway, who else hooked up?

Everyone felt tense now and I felt so embarrassed. No one knew I liked girls and I didn't want them to talk about it because Quinn decided to react like that. I mean, it wasn't a big deal but if you pay attention to detail you'd have noticed something.

We all kept up with our day, then it was time for cheerio practice, it ended, I showered and changed out of my cheerio uniform, Quinn was waiting for me outside the locker rooms.

-So what did you guys do?

Quinn asked all of the sudden, I looked around and it was just the two of us.

-Me and Sam?

-Yes

-We just fucked Quinn, no biggie.

-But like, what did you do?

She sat in a bleacher and I sat in front of her but on the floor with my back resting in the lockers.

-What do you mean?

-Details. Did he go down on you?

-Why do you wanna know?

-That's what friends do, talk about guys, right? I bet you told Brittany every detail

-I did

-So? Is he good?

-I mean… he's kinda good.

-Did you like it?

-It's whatever

Quinn sighed and sat on the floor next to me, I felt her hand on my leg.

-Paint me the picture, I wanna know everything.

-Well, we were drunk, we started kissing.

-Did you blow him?

-No

I chuckled, Quinn was being weird but I wanted to see where this was going.

-I just went straight to riding his dick honestly.

I saw Quinn shivering when I said that and you don't know how much I wanted to be inside her head.

-Ugh, I bet he didn't last that long

-Ha, he actually didn't

We laughed a bit and Quinn looked around, she kneeled on the floor in front of me and she passed her finger from my neck to my cleavage.

-Did he play with your boobs?

I was so nervous about having her hands there, I followed her eyes and they were following her hand. I wanted to stop her but at the same time, please keep going.

-What do you think? Everyone goes straight for my boobs

-I can see why

She lowered her hand and one of her fingers slightly passed on top of my nipple.

-Quinn, what are you doing?

-I'm sorry

She said and took her distance

-I know you don't want me to touch you. It's just hard, you know? You're the only one I'm comfortable with.

-Yeah but friends don't do this Quinn, and it is clear that we're nothing more than friends.

-I know I'm fucked up Santana, but flirting with you is my favorite part of the day.

-Is just unfair, Quinn

-Why?

-Because I told you how I felt

-And what did I say? Why did you stop trying?

-You said nothing. That's the thing

-I just said I can't do this right now, I'm dating Marc, and he's a great guy. Is that stopping you?

-What's your point?

-I'm just saying, don't take things too seriously San, don't overthink, just act. If you want to hold my hand just do it, I don't mind.

-I'm telling you is different for you and for me,

-San, it 's not.

Some girls walked into the lockers which was weird at this time of day, Quinn stood up and offered me her hand. I swear to God I don't understand this girl. She wanted me or not? Or she wanted my attention? Or she wanted to keep me hanging but also be exclusive for her while she has a fucking boyfriend.

We didn't talk much after but on my way home I made up my mind. She was obviously into me, so why should I give up? Maybe she's just playing hard to get but her little speech is telling me to keep pursuing her, right? She wants this.

Later that day I had a random message from an unknown number.

M: Hey, I know you don't know me

S: Who 's this?

M: I'm Quinn's boyfriend, she's always talking about you, so I figured she might be with you? She just sent me a weird text and is not responding

I sent Quinn a screenshot before I answer.

Q: San, please block him. I broke up with him and he followed me home and is being super annoying.

S: Will do.

So, after that weird ass interaction in the locker rooms, she broke up with that nerd. She was obviously jealous about Sam. The math was adding up. She obviously wanted me, right? I was trying not to get my hopes up, but I for sure was going to turn my charm on. I had no idea how to flirt with a girl, do you ask them out? Do you buy them flowers and chocolates?

I was going to figure it out eventually but for now, as she said, I had to stop overthinking and just act on how I feel.

What made it a bit tricky is that I wasn't out yet, and I wasn't about to expose myself for something that's not a for sure thing. We'd have to wait and see how this all works out on the low and see what happens.

So, Santana decided to be honest and Quinn is doing Quinn things. Also let's see how this new friendship works out. And also, what do you think of Sam's little come back?
