Chapter 6: Fun!

Brittany's POV

*Saturday 18th January 2020*

As soon as Santana said she was ok with everything and I kissed her, everything went so fast. One minute we were making out and then the next, we're on the bed in nothing but our underwear and bras. As much as this is just sex, I still want to treasure every minute of it because it's Santana Lopez. I am about to have sex with Santana Lopez. I must be the luckiest person in the world right now because Santana has to be the sexiest girl I've ever been in bed with. Also, what's even better is that this doesn't mean anything to either of us so we can both just have fun and not care about a thing.

"You ok?" Santana frowns at me as she pulls away from kissing my neck. "You've been silent for like a few minutes now and that's weird to me. I'm not some sort of service that just pleases you. This is a two-way street so you better not just be lying there waiting on me…"

"Relax" I smile while leaning up to kiss her. "I was just lost in my thoughts for a second thinking about tonight but I damn sure will make you feel just as good as me tonight" I add.

"Good" she nods.

"Now let's get this show on the road" I smirk as I pull her back down on me and kiss her. After kissing for a few moments, I sit up making Santana sit up to. "I really don't think you need this anymore" I say while unclasping her bra at the back and gently removing it before tossing it to the floor.

"I could say the same to you" she smirks as she reaches forwards and unclasps mine before discarding it to the pile on the floor with the rest of our clothes.

"You have really wonderful breasts Santana" I say as I flip us over so I'm hovering above her now. "Like seriously, I can't stop looking at them. They're amazing" I admit.

"I should hope so; I paid a lot of money for them" she shrugs at me.

"Oh, so you had surgery?" I ask surprised. I always automatically assume Santana is this confident person that loves who she is but maybe there are a few insecurities in her.

"Yeah and if you looked like me back then, you would too" she tells me. "I was as flat as a pancake" she jokes.

"I'm sure you still looked sexy" I smile.

"Are you really trying to talk about the past right now when you have me lying here like this?" she questions with a smirk.

"Sorry, I'm just getting distracted easily because you're so beautiful. I don't know if we're going to make it to the sex part because I honestly can't stop looking at you" I say embarrassed. It's so true though. If I wanted to look like someone, I think it would definitely be Santana.

"Oh, we'll make it" she states confidently. "There is no way we're leaving this hotel this weekend until you've made me cum at least 5 times."

"Ok" I laugh.

"Less talking now" she states while pulling me towards her. I lean down and kiss her before leaving a trail of kisses down her body. She buries her fingers in my hair as I get closer to her panty line. I avoid that area and move to kissing the inside of her legs while gently caressing her breasts. "Please" she moans out as she starts getting worked up.

"Ok" I say while standing up to shimmy out of my boxers before getting back on the bed. She lifts her butt off the bed slightly and I gently grip Santana's panties and pull them down her legs. I stare at her center for a second, looking at it as it glistens with moisture. Clearly she is just as aroused as I am. "You have a cute…"

"I don't feel anything inside me" she tells me as she interrupts me. I quickly get into position between her legs and spread them apart before leaning down. I begin kissing the inside of her thighs before making my way up towards her center. I slowly lick her folds before plunging my tongue inside. "Shit!" she moans out in surprise. The sound of her voice and how sexy it was instantly gets me harder.

"You taste amazing" I smile at her before going back in.

"Fuck Brittany" she moans while bucking her hips up towards me while tangling her fingers in my hair. "Get inside me" she says hurriedly after a few moments.

"I am" I state.

"Now!" she says while putting her hands on my cheeks as she pulls me towards her. She kisses me passionately while pulling me down on top of her. "Get inside me" she tells me while reaching between us and palming at my member.

"Ok" I say before reaching over and grabbing a condom. I sit up slightly to roll it on before leaning back down and guiding myself into her core slowly. I start off really slowly before picking up the pace and moving my hips harder as I thrust in and out of her.

"Fuck, that feels so good" she moans as she grips the sheets and bucks her hips up towards me in rhythm with my thrusts.

"You're so tight" I point out.

"I had no idea you would be this big" she tells me through a moan. I wouldn't say I am big, I'm average but for a woman I guess I might be bigger than she imagined.

"Thanks" I say smugly. I then reach down and kiss her as I continue to thrust in and out.

"I'm going to cum" she says moaning louder this time.

"Me too" I moan as I feel myself almost coming undone. It takes a second before we're coming together, Santana tight around me as I fill up the condom.

"Shit, that was good" Santana says breathlessly as she rides out the last of her orgasm.

"You are so sexy" I say as I fall to the bed beside her.

"For our first time together, that wasn't too bad" she shrugs at me as she regains her breath.

"Did I just get a compliment from Santana Lopez?" I ask with a smirk. Amazing would be a better compliment but I can take 'not bad'.

"Don't be arrogant" she says rolling her eyes at me.

"You weren't just going through the motions, were you?" I ask curiously. "You did actually orgasm right?" I ask embarrassed.

"Did it look like I didn't?" she laughs.

"I'm being serious" I state.

"I know and so am I" she tells me. "Are you one of those people who are insecure in bed?" she asks me.

"Not once I know the person but this is different for me Santana. This is our first time together and I'm not your average girl so I…"

"I orgasmed. Let's leave it there and take of it what you will" she shrugs at me. I know she's not a feelings person and whatever but my situation is different so the first time is always a nervous time for me. Once I'm in relationships then I'm absolutely fine because I know they like it but this isn't a relationship; it's fun so I want to make sure it is indeed fun.

"Ok" I smile.

"I probably should be getting myself back to my own hotel room now because it's getting late now and we have an early flight tomorrow" she says while looking at me.

"Is this how this goes?" I tease. "We have sex and then you just run out?"

"I'm not running out. I'm being practical" she shrugs. "It's late like I say and I need sleep before the early flight in the morning. Plus, if I stay here, I won't want to sleep, will I?" she reasons.

"Will you want rounds 2 and 3 and 4?" I smirk.

"Most probably" she shrugs again. "You need sleep as well because we have a big day on Monday" she adds.

"That is true" I nod. I think we both can agree tonight went ok and I can see us continuing the fun but at the end of the day, Santana is my boss. If we have a big day on Monday and she needs me well rested tomorrow then I get it.

"Me leaving isn't a reflection on what's just happened" she says honestly. I hate that I got insecure for a second but I had to make sure it wasn't going to end up weird for us.

"I know and I believe you. I had to ask so things weren't going to get weird because I don't want us to continue this and you're doing it so you don't make me feel bad. If you didn't like it then it was best to forget about it all" I shrug.

"We're not forgetting about it so take that in whichever way you want" she replies.

"I take that as you want to do it again therefore you don't mind my situation" I smile.

"There you go then" she smiles back. "Anyway, bed time for me it is" she states while reaching over to get dressed. Personally, I think she looks better minus the clothes but I don't suppose she can walk along the corridor to her room naked. That might just get us thrown out of here.

"I should get myself ready for bed" I say while kicking the covers off and making my way to the bathroom. I need to freshen up and brush my teeth. "Hey, when are we leaving the hotel in the morning?" I ask as I poke my head around the bathroom door.

"Uh…what?" Santana asks distractedly.

"Are you staring at me?" I ask my boss.

"Uh…sorry" she says while looking away from me.

"Creep" I smirk.

"If you don't want me to look then stop walking around naked. Why aren't you getting dressed?" she replies.

"Because I'm going to bed in 10 minutes so I don't see the point" I shrug.

"Do you sleep naked?" she asks surprised.

"On an occasion I do" I state.

"Fuck, I need to go" she says before walking towards me and kissing me. "I'm going to end up back in that bed of yours if you're naked" she mumbles aloud as she leaves my hotel room.

*Monday 20th January 2020*

The weekend with Santana at the movie premiere was fun but sadly it had to end at some point and we had to get back to work. I usually hate Monday mornings when I've had a weekend off but I'm actually feeling good about it today. Don't get me wrong, I would love another day off but I'm coping better on this Monday than I usually do. I'm guessing my good mood is all down to the weekend I've just had because like I say, it was really fun. It also made me realise that I don't need to pressure myself to get into another relationship so soon because I am young so I should have some fun.

"Morning boss" Jack smiles at me as he walks over to his desk.

"Don't let Ms Lopez hear you say that" I say with a laugh. I am kinda Jack's boss but Santana is the official boss of everyone around here.

"How did the weekend go?" he asks me curiously as he gets his computer fired up.

"Yeah it was ok" I shrug. Obviously, it was better than ok but he doesn't need to know that so I'm trying to play it cool.

"Is Ms Lopez as mean outside of work as she is in work?" he asks me.

"We were working this weekend so it's hard to say because I don't really know her outside of work" I reply. It is another lie but I don't think Santana will want everyone to know that we have hung out before outside of work.

"Brittany, can you come to my office ASAP?" Santana asks me as she approaches my desk.

"Yes, Ms Lopez" I nod. Santana nods back and then walks off.

"Is someone in trouble?" Jack asks me teasingly.

"I don't know" I shrug. "I hope not because I was wanting to leave early tonight so I don't want to be in her bad books otherwise I won't get an early finish" I add. I then quickly make my way to Santana's office and go inside.

"Close the door" Santana tells me.

"Ok" I say while turning around and closing the door. Just as I've heard it click shut, Santana walks over to me and pushes me against it before kissing me. "I see you really needed me in your office" I smirk at her.

"That's right" she smiles at me. "As soon as I woke up this morning, all I thought about was getting you to my office and having sex with you" she adds.

"Oh really?" I ask smugly. I like that we're both super into each other.

"Yeah" she replies before kissing me. She then briskly walks over to her window. "Get a condom" she tells me while closing the blinds hurriedly.

"Where are they?" I ask.

"Don't you have one?" she asks me with a frown.

"Oh yes I do. I bring them to work with me every day and I keep them in my pocket" I say sarcastically.

"Why don't you have one?" she asks.

"Santana, I go into work expecting our sales targets to be met, our expenses to have decreased significantly and there are no outstanding invoices. I don't go into work expecting to have sex so I don't carry them around in my back pocket" I tell her. I might have the odd couple in my purse for situations that don't allow me to go home but I most certainly don't carry them on my person like gum.

"I am on birth control but I really don't feel comfortable not using a condom yet. I'm not saying your not clean but I don't know who you last slept with" she states. I totally get it so I'm ok with it.

"I could go to the nearest store and get some but by that time the novelty will have worn off and you'll be at your meeting" I state.

"Exactly" Santana sighs. "Look, let's just forget about it just now and just come to my place when we finish work tonight. I think by that time; we'll be in the need of some fun to cheer us up after my weekly meeting with my managers" she adds.

"Will I stop by and get us dinner on the way to your place?" I wonder. I know it's just sex and we're not like dating but no doubt we'll need some food tonight to give us some extra energy.

"Well I'm most certainly not cooking for the two of us" she tells me.

"I guess that means yes" I laugh. I love how she can never give me a proper concise answer to what I ask.

XXX

After our busy day at work, Santana and I headed to her place. Since I drove to work this morning then I followed her back to her place in my car instead of us driving together. Like promised, I picked up some food on the way and that let Santana get home first and get organised. Santana has now just let me inside and we're making our way to the kitchen. I set the food down on the counter and Santana gets some plates and cutlery out.

"Food first and sex later" she tells me as she takes the containers out of the bag.

"What will happen if I stuff myself with too much food tonight that I can't move never mind have sex?" I challenge.

"I'll decrease your wages next month" she shrugs.

"No, you won't" I chuckle. I don't believe she would actually do that.

"Yeah, I won't" she smirks. "You will want to have sex with me tonight though" she adds.

"I don't like admitting it but you are good in bed" I say seriously.

"I know what you mean" she nods while plating up the food.

"Wait a second…" I smirk. "You know what I mean as in you agree you're good in bed or you know what I mean because you have experienced that feeling too because you think I'm good in bed."

"The latter" she mumbles as she hands me a plate.

"In all seriousness, am I good?" I ask. It is slightly intimidating being with Santana sometimes because she is so beautiful and she's good at anything she does. I would hate to be mediocre in bed and she just goes along with it because she's bored.

"You've been working for me for almost a year now. I think you know by now I don't do anything I don't want to do so if I'm having sex with you then it's because I like it" she shrugs.

"That actually means a lot more to me than you'll ever know" I say honestly. I do get a little insecure at times because it's been hard trusting people when we get close because of my situation so it means something when Santana thinks I am 'normal' in some way.

"Oh Brittany, come on. Don't" Santana sighs while shaking her head at me.

"What?" I chuckle. I gave her a compliment, what is wrong with that.

"Yes, I think you're good in bed but don't start getting emotional and having all those feelings crap" she states.

"I'm not getting emotional because I'm stronger than that. It'll take more than that to get me emotional. I just wanted to tell you though that I appreciate the way you've handled things because it's different for me. I am a girl but I'm not technically genetically female" I say.

"Don't try and label yourself or put yourself into a box. You're Brittany and that's why I like spending time with you. You're you and you don't need to conform to how everyone else does or thinks things" she replies. "Yes, you maybe are a little different but so am I at the end of the day. Apart from monozygotic twins, I don't know any two people who look alike" she shrugs.

"Who's got feelings now?" I smirk.

"We need to eat, the food is getting cold" she replies, obviously ignoring my statement like she does all the time.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

*Tuesday 28th January 2020*

It's another day at work and another busy day at that. I've got a lot on my plate this morning because one of my team has called in sick so the extra work falls on my shoulders since I'm the manager. I know Santana isn't going to be happy that I need to work as one of the employees and not do my regular managerial roles but it can't be helped. The accounts and finance team come first to me because that's where I started so any staffing issues or anything like that that I take on normally, Santana will have to take on.

I'm currently on my way to Santana's office to explain the situation and also talk to her about a few other things. I've got a few concerns about finances at the moment so I want to address those as well with my boss. I also kinda want to see her but I'm not about to admit that to her.

"Can I come in?" I ask with a gentle knock on the office door.

"Sure" Santana nods.

"So, we need to talk about a few things" I say as I sit on the desk in front of Santana.

"Shouldn't we close the door?" she asks with a smirk as she places her hand on my knee.

"This is about accounts" I smirk back. I love that she's super into us having fun but I generally did come here to talk work.

"Really?" she groans.

"Yes" I nod. "I'll come and find you when I finish work for the day though" I add.

"Fine" she nods back. "So, what would you like to talk about Pierce?" she asks.

"You are spending far too much money on the launch of a couple of your designs" I answer.

"Is that so?" she asks offended.

"I know you're not happy about what I'm saying but seriously, you don't need to put that much money into a massive spectacle that you're planning. You already have the customers so you could tone it down slightly" I point out.

"My customers deserve a big launch because they like it when we go big" she replies.

"I get that and it would be fine if it was just a one-time thing but you only just launched a new range last week and now, you're spending dollars and dollars on another big launch that doesn't need to be so big" I say. "It's too much money going out of the business at the one time so either hold off a week or tone it down."

"And if I don't?" she challenges.

"Then the accounts are fucked" I shrug. "It's your business so your decision but I'm telling you we need to do something to let the cash flow settle down a little before another extravagant launch" I state.

"Show me the finances" Santana says annoyed. I know she isn't happy with me but I'm telling her for the sake of the business. I don't want her throwing money away that doesn't need to be thrown away.

"Fine" I say while pulling up the spreadsheets on my tablet.

"Thank you" she says. I then show her some of the more recent figures and finances. I go though it all with her before leaving her to have a think about it. I then head back to my desk and continue working. I'm just working hard when someone approaches my desk.

"Hey" Quinn smiles while walking over to me.

"Hey. How are you?" I ask, surprised to see Quinn since she doesn't work here.

"I'm good. I've got the day off work so I was hoping to steal my best friend for an hour or so to go to lunch but apparently she is too busy" she replies.

"Can't you order some food to here and eat in her office together or something" I suggest. That way they could catch up but Santana can still work.

"I suppose we could do that. I might go back and ask her. I want to catch up with you first" she replies.

"There's not much happening with me" I shrug.

"Mal told me you didn't text her back the other night" she states.

"Mal who?" I ask confused.

"Brittany?" Quinn asks outraged. I just shrug at her because I don't know who she's talking about. "I set you two up on a date a few weeks ago and she was asking you out again and you didn't reply."

"Quinn, these dates aren't really for me. I think I just need to let nature take it's course and whoever I'm meant to be with will come to me" I shrug.

"Mallory is a nice girl, what was wrong with her?" Quinn asks me.

"I just wasn't feeling it, that's all" I shrug again.

"At least text her back and let her down gently or something" she states.

"I wouldn't know what to say to her. I thought us not speaking for a few weeks meant we both weren't feeling it" I reply. "Wait a minute…" I say in realisation. "Did you tell her I might have been interested? Is that why she is suddenly in contact again?" I ask.

"I was just trying to help because you deserve to be happy" she states.

"Please just stay out of it Quinn" I sigh.

"Fine" she nods. "So, any plans for your birthday?" she asks me.

"Uh…not really" I shrug. "Well, not huge plans anyway. My friends and I might do something but there's nothing concrete yet. I might also have lunch with my family but nothing wild" I add.

"Is my best friend giving you the day off work?" she asks curiously.

"Yeah but I think I need to work the Sunday" I point out. My birthday is on the Saturday but we are quite busy at the moment so I offered to work the Sunday to make up for the time I'm taking on the Saturday.

"Cool" Quinn nods. "Speaking of my best friend, how are things between the two of you?" she asks.

"Uh…fine" I say nervously. I don't know for sure what she knows so I don't know if she's just asking generally since Santana and I didn't start off on the right foot or if she knows something is going on between us. On the one hand, I can see Santana keeping us quiet but on the other, Quinn is her best friend and confidant so she might open up to her about us. That might also be why she was trying to set me up again to keep me from Santana.

*Friday 31st January 2020*

Tomorrow is my 24th birthday so some of my friends and I are going out to celebrate tonight. We figured tonight was better since I have tomorrow off work but I'm working on Sunday. There's nothing worse than a hangover at work so I'd rather be hungover tomorrow than on Sunday.

Once I'm all dressed and have my makeup done, I head to Mercedes's place for some pre night out drinks. Tina was already there so Mercedes got the drinks poured and we all caught up. We then headed out to the first bar where we met some of our other friends. There were some people from high school and some college friends.

"Ok let's make a toast to Brittany" Tina says while holding her glass in the air.

"To Brittany and her turning another year older" Mercedes says. We all then raise our glasses and clink them together.

"So apart from tonight and lunch with the family tomorrow, what have you got planned for your birthday?" Tina asks me.

"Nothing really" I shrug.

"You're so boring these days" Mercedes teases me.

"What about the dating life? Is there anything happening there?" Tina asks me.

"Uh…no" I shake my head.

"Oh my god, there is isn't there?" Mercedes smirks at me. "Who is she and do we know her?" she asks.

"I'm not dating anyone at the moment" I reply.

"There is someone in your life though, right?" Tina asks.

"No, there isn't. I am happily single at the moment" I tell them all.

"Quinn said you had knocked back another date with Mal which makes me think there could be someone else otherwise you might have said yes to the date" Tina says.

"I didn't exactly knock back…wait a minute. When do you all talk to Quinn?" I ask confused. Mercedes and Tina are my best friends and Quinn is Santana's so our friends don't exactly mix. I think they've only met once.

"We have each other's numbers and text from time to time" Mercedes shrugs.

"We mainly text about y…I mean we just text to catch up and stuff" Tina states, changing her answer midway through the sentence.

"You all talk about me, don't you?" I ask embarrassed.

"Not exactly" Mercedes states.

"Quinn just seems to set you up on dates and we all want you to find someone you can settle down with. I mean I have Mike and Mercedes has Sam" Tina tells me.

"I'm happily single at the moment and just enjoying life. I don't need any of you to set me up and I don't need a girlfriend right now either. Also, I'm not some delicate flower that needs her friends to help her find love. I can find it on my own, I'm not that much of an insecure person" I say offended. I am a little more cautious with people because of my situation but on the whole, I am a confident individual so I don't need help. I mean Santana is sleeping with me on her own accord so I didn't need anyone to help me there and that says something. Santana could have fun with anyone because she's a very beautiful person but yet she has fun with me.

"We don't mean to offend you Brittany" Mercedes says honestly. "We just want to make sure you're happy because you are the only single one here" she adds.

"Honestly, don't worry about me. I'm doing absolutely fine" I smile. "I would tell you if I was worried about something but my personal life is fine so you don't need to worry either" I say.

"Ok" Tina shrugs. They all then let go of the conversation and we move on to celebrating my birthday.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

*Saturday 1st February 2020*

It's been a nice and quiet birthday so far. I spent the morning relaxing trying to get rid of my hangover and then I had lunch with my parents and siblings. After that I just came home and chilled out on my own. I wanted a quiet afternoon because I am working tomorrow so I didn't want to do too much and just wanted to relax. It's maybe slightly depressing sitting alone on my birthday but at the same time, I did celebrate it last night so it's not too bad. I've just got comfortable on my couch and I'm now browsing through Netflix to see what I could watch. I manage to finally find an interesting movie when my cell phone rings. I hit pause on my movie and groan loudly at the annoying interruption. As soon as I see the called ID, my annoyance quickly turns to happiness.

"Hey, boss" I smile to myself. It's late at night so I'm assuming we're not talking work.

"Hey Birthday girl, you alone?" Santana asks.

"Wow, you remembered. That is so cute" I tease.

"Shut up" she states. By the tone of her voice, I can tell she is rolling her eyes right now.

"I am alone right now" I reply.

"I wasn't sure if you'd be out celebrating with your friends or not" she tells me.

"We went out last night and partied right on into the early hours so they all got to sing me happy birthday at the end of the night" I point out.

"Wonderful" she says sarcastically. "I don't care about that though right now" she states.

"I'm getting the feeling you want to come over here" I say with a smirk.

"You have good feelings" she tells me.

"Come over then and we…oh wait a second there's a knock at the door. Don't hang up" I say while hurriedly walking towards my door. As soon as I open it, I'm surprised to see my boss standing there with a bottle of red wine and the sexiest smirk across her face. "I need to go" I say into the phone before hanging up.

"Bye" Santana replies before putting her phone into her pocket. "Hi, gonna let me in?" she asks with a smile as she holds up the bottle of wine in front of me.

"I don't know" I tease.

"Ok" she nods before unbuttoning the long jacket she is wearing. She places her hand on her hip and smirks at me which is when I realise she is wearing nothing but lingerie underneath the long jacket.

"Uh…wow" I say, a little lost for words. Obviously, I know Santana is sexy but I thought all we did was have sex but tonight she has made a bit of an effort to set the mood which has surprised me.

"I thought since it was your birthday then we could have fun tonight but if you're not going to let me in then I guess I'll either just go home or find someone else to help me out of this lingerie" she shrugs at me.

"I am going to let you in but it's for you more than it's for me. I'm not too bothered about birthday sex tonight but I feel like you shouldn't be walking around on your own at this time of night dressed like that so it is safer for you to come inside" I reply.

"Yeah, sure, that's why" she laughs at me. "You want to fuck me just as much as I want to fuck you tonight" she adds.

"No, not really" I shake my head as I stand back from the door to let her inside.

"I know you find me super sexy right now" she tells me while holding onto my hand. I quickly close the door behind her and she pulls me to the living room.

"I know that you know, I'm not denying you're sexy" I shrug. "It doesn't mean I want sex right now though" I add.

"If you're trying to make a big deal about the other day then I'm not in the mood" she sighs. "I was pissed at you for telling me how to run my company but that doesn't mean you need to be pissed at me for being pissed at you" she adds.

"I'm not pissed at you and I knew you wouldn't like what I had to say about the finances but my role in your company is the head of accounts and finance and I saw an issue that needed addressed" I shrug.

"Ok" she nods. "Are we having sex or not tonight?" she asks. I guess she is still a little pissed about work but we're not at work right now and we enjoy sleeping together so why shouldn't we right now.

"That really depends" I say nonchalantly.

"Depends on what Brittany?" she asks unamused.

"Did you get me a birthday present?" I ask teasingly.

"Yeah" she nods.

"You did?" I ask surprised. "What is it?" I wonder.

"I'll give you it later if we do have sex. Your present will be the best orgasm you've ever had" she shrugs.

"Ok" I laugh.

"Now come here" she says while pulling me closer. "It's been way too long since we had sex" she states as she leans in to kiss me.

"It's only been a couple of days" I chuckle.

"You wanna make it a couple more?" she asks me seriously.

"You really can't joke tonight or like the teasing, do you?" I ask.

"It's been a tough day at work and I thought coming here tonight would relax me and give me some sort of release to take away all this stress. Evidently not" she states while rolling her eyes at me.

"What happened at work?" I ask concerned as I comfortingly put my arm around her waist. I wasn't working today since it was my birthday but obviously Santana and the others have been working.

"I don't want to talk about it, it was just stressful" she shrugs.

"If someone upset you, I could kick their ass" I say seriously.

"If anyone gets to kick someone's ass it'll be me" she laughs. "Seriously though, let's forget about it. We can discuss it in the morning at work" she tells me.

"Ok" I nod. I then put my other arm around her and pull her in close to my body. "You look really sexy tonight" I say.

"Are you getting hard already?" she asks amused.

"Duh!" I state obviously. "If you were me and had someone as sexy as you to sleep with you would instantly get hard after one look at what was in front of you" I shrug.

"Let's not waste any time then" she says while pecking my lips before pulling me to my bedroom.


Santana's POV

*Wednesday 5th February 2020*

Today is a busy day at work for me. I've only been here about 15 minutes this morning and I'm already late and getting stressed out. I don't like to admit it but Brittany was right the other day, I do need to watch my finances a little. I can have all these great ideas about how to launch a new product but I just can't do it all one day after another because that's too much money to part with at one time. It'll take some time to bring the balance back up so I need to do the launches gradually so I can spread out the finances more evenly.

"Morning" Brittany smiles at me as she walks into my office.

"Hey" I say while quickly glancing at her before going back to what I was doing on my computer.

"I've come into work early this morning so how about a little reward for punctuality" she asks as she walks towards me and leans down and kisses my shoulder from behind.

"I've got meetings all day and the first one starts in two minutes" I say while getting up from my chair. "I really can't do anything but work right now because the others are waiting on me in the conference room" I add.

"Ok" she smiles at me before stealing a quick kiss. "Later?" she asks.

"If I get finished on time. I've got a family dinner tonight so I don't know if I'll need to go straight there from my meetings or if I'll have some time" I reply. It's my mom's birthday today so I can't miss dinner plus I don't want to either because family means a lot to me.

"Ok" she nods. "I might as well start work then" she shrugs before heading back to her desk.

After a long day of meetings and catching up with all of my staff, I was finally finished for the day. I'm just in my office right now wrapping a few things up before I head to my parent's house. It's been a while since I saw them last so it'll be nice to have dinner with my family and get to see my mom on her birthday. I'm just logging off my computer when Brittany walks into my office.

"Do we have time?" she asks as she quickly walks over to me.

"I don't think so" I shake my head. "I really need to be at my parent's house for dinner" I add.

"Ok" she nods. "I'll just see you tomorrow at work" she says sadly while walking towards the door.

"I could text you if I'm home at a decent time and maybe you could come over?" I suggest.

"Honestly, don't worry about it. You've got family stuff so don't rush it for me. This is just fun so family is more important" she smiles.

"See you tomorrow" I say while kissing her and then hurriedly leaving.

I finally make it to my parent's house in time to sit down with everyone for dinner. The traffic was shocking so I was worried they'd need to start without me but it was fine. My parents, siblings, grandparents and my siblings' partners are all eating together. Again, I'm the only one there that's single but I don't really care. I'm ok with how things are at the moment.

"How is work Santana?" my dad asks me.

"Really good but also really stressful" I admit. I'm really close to my parents so I'm always honest about what's going on in my life. Actually, I'm not totally honest because some things aren't needed said but I am very honest about my business. I wouldn't be the person I am today without my parents or their support so they mean the world to me.

"Any girlfriends or boyfriends on the horizon?" my mom asks me.

"No mom" I say while rolling my eyes at my mom.

"Any thoughts on changing that Santana?" my gran asks me. "I was married with a couple of kids by your age Santana" she states.

"Times have changed gran. Everyone is having children and getting married older. It's no big deal" I reply. In my grandparents' younger days, it was common for people to get married at 19 and start a family by 20. That's not how my generation works anymore. Even my mom and dad weren't just as young as my grandparents.

"She's a smart young girl. She'll find a husband when the time is right" my grandpa states.

"Or a wife grandpa" my brother adds.

"Yes, ok" my grandpa nods.

"I know it's not easy to understand dad but Santana might marry another girl" my mom explains to my grandpa. He isn't against my feelings in any way, he just doesn't really understand it very well because his parents brought him up with the idea that only men and women can mate and never two of the same sex.

"As long as they treat you well, I can get on board with whoever you love" my grandpa smiles at me.

"Thanks grandpa" I say while hugging him.

"Did you slip a 20 in her wallet or something grandpa?" my brother asks. "Santana does not do affection so you must have done something for her to hug you" he teases me.

"How do you put up with my brother?" I ask his girlfriend.

"How do your employees put up with you?" my brother smirks at me. "I am surprised you have any left after the way you speak to everyone."

"Her employees stay there because of Brittany" my dad replies.

"Excuse me?" I say shocked.

"She seems a lovely girl Santana and she seems to have your back business wise so I think the employees all quite like her from what she says" my dad shrugs.

"I don't give a fuck if they like Brittany or not and more to the point how do you know Brittany. You met her one whole time. My employees stay because my business is successful so they're guaranteed a good job with a tidy pay packet at the end of the month" I shrug.

"So, you admit some of them don't like you?" my sister smirks at me.

"Can you all stop winding me up. This is mom's night not a night to discuss how successful I am even though I am indeed incredibly successful" I say. "In fact, let's bring this back to topic and raise a glass to the best mom ever" I say while holding up my glass.

"Yes, let's do that" my dad agrees with me.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

*Sunday 9th February 2020*

I've took the day off work today and it's a lovely Sunday morning so I thought I might go for a run through the park instead of going to the gym to workout. I was supposed to be working out with Quinn but she called me last night and said she couldn't make it anymore. I've decided to go to Brittany's apartment and see if she wants to workout with me this morning. It's not that I can't do it on my own because I can. I just thought some company might be cool and I could actually get a chance to talk to her about some work things without having employees constantly interrupt me like they do when I'm in my office.

"Uh…hi" Brittany says surprised as she opens the door to me after I knock on it.

"Might seem a weird suggestion but do you want to go out running with me?" I ask.

"I don't know…do I?" she asks me.

"I was supposed to meet with Quinn but she had to cancel on me. James's parents are coming over for lunch so she doesn't have time for a workout anymore since she has to prepare the meal" I reply.

"Can't you just go for a run yourself?" she asks me.

"I could but I thought if you came with me then we could discuss a few points about the meeting tomorrow" I shrug. We can workout and do work at the same time, it's win-win.

"I was thinking about hitting the gym in a little while so I guess I could go for a run instead" she shrugs back.

"Let's get going then" I say. Brittany then gets changed into some more suitable attired and then we head out on a run. We're silent at the beginning but now I want to talk to her. "How is my business doing?" I ask curiously.

"Uh…fine…I think" Brittany replies confused.

"I'm serious. How is my business performing? From employee to boss, tell me honestly" I ask while pointing between us.

"Your business is doing really well Santana but at the same time, you are introducing a lot of new things at once so there are some issues at the moment" she admits. "Don't get me wrong, you always turn a profit and you don't have any outstanding payments or anything like that" she adds.

"Ok" I nod.

"I've lost count of the number of new designs you've came up with this month and because you're trying to launch them all at once, things are becoming complicated" she tells me.

"I did try and change that" I admit.

"I know but it's still all so fast at the moment and it's hard to keep up. On the other hand though, sales are doing great and the spring discount you put on some of the items has really attracted more customers. Also, the little Easter onesies you're making look so cute and will be flying off the shelves come Easter" she smiles.

"There's a design I don't really like so much. Maybe I should sell it" I state after a moment of silence takes upon us.

"No. Don't do that" Brittany replies seriously.

"Why not?" I ask confused.

"Because even if you don't like it, it's still your work and you can be proud of making it. You'll look back in 10 years' time and you'll hate it if you see someone else so successful with your design" she replies. "I'm not saying you should make a product with the new design because that would waste money if you don't want to sell it but I definitely think you should keep it."

"It's just a design. Why do you feel so strongly about it?" I ask confused.

"Because you designed it Santana and it's yours so I want you to be able to look back at all of your work even the designs that don't make it into production" she tells me.

"I'm not sentimental like that so I don't know that I'll care that much in the future. I don't think I'll really feel much for a few scraps of paper with some drawings on them" I shrug. Fair enough, I'll look back on my products with pride but not some designs that mean nothing and weren't good enough to manufacture.

"Ok" Brittany shrugs.

"You're a sentimental person though, aren't you?" I point out. It's kinda cute actually how different we both are.

"That's what Grace says all the time so I guess I am" she replies.

"Grace? Who is Grace?" I ask, frowning in confusion. There is no one who works for me called Grace.

"My sister" she replies.

"You have a sister?" I ask curiously.

"I have 2 sisters" she tells me. It actually makes me feel a little bit bad because Brittany has been working for me for so long now and I don't even know a thing about her family.

"What are their names?" I ask curiously.

"There's one called Grace" she replies.

"Uh-huh, I got that" I say while rolling my eyes at her. I don't have short-term memory loss so I was able to hold onto the information she said a minute ago.

"I'm just winding you up" she laughs. "Anyway, my oldest sister is called Grace and the other one is called Haley. They're both older than me" she adds.

"Cool" I smile. "You've met both my brother and sister, haven't you?" I ask. I have some recollection of them all meeting when I was moving house.

"Marco and Carly, right?" she asks and I nod. "And your parents are Carlos and Maribel?" she asks.

"Correct" I nod. "And I'm the odd one out" I say chuckling.

"What do you mean?" she asks confused.

"Well I'm the oldest and for some reason they picked the name Santana for me when I was born. However, when my brother was born, they wanted to name him something relating to the family so they went with Marco which is similar to Maribel and then when my sister was born, they named her Carly which is like my father's name Carlos. Basically, I'm Santana for some odd reason that they don't even know" I laugh.

"Santana is a cute name. I wouldn't be offended by it" Brittany shrugs.

"I'm not offended" I shake my head. I'm more amused that they preferred my siblings to be named after them rather than me and to be honest they couldn't be more accurate because I'm not like either of my parents in personality but my siblings are.

"Do you like my name?" Brittany asks me.

"It does roll right off the tongue easily when we're having sex" I tease.

"I thought I was the funny one between the two of us but you can be just as amusing sometimes" she smiles at me.

"Come on, let's finish this run" I state. We then continue running for a while more before heading back to Brittany's apartment.

"Do you want a drink?" she asks me as she walks over to the fridge.

"No, I better be getting home now" I state.

"Have you got something planned for today?" she asks me as she takes a sip from her bottle of water.

"No, no plans" I state. "I would just be getting home to shower and relax for a little while before back to work tomorrow."

"Do you want to relax with me?" she asks with a smirk as she makes her way over to me. "I'm free all day today" she adds as she unzips my sweater.

"I thought you'd never fucking ask" I say as I hop onto the kitchen unit behind me. "I really didn't think we'd need to actually run this morning first but apparently you didn't take the hint when I turned up here" I say as I pull her towards me and kiss her.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

*Tuesday 11th February 2020*

I've been running my own business for a number of years now and as much as it's going well, I've sort of let other things go around here. My office isn't the best anymore because the paint is hanging off the walls and my desk chair is falling to pieces. There are several coffee stains on a couple of the other chairs and my desk isn't very supportive either. I hopped onto the desk the other day when Brittany and I were getting rather intimate and a few of the bolts flew off underneath and it creaked like hell. The floor also isn't in great shape after all the traffic that comes in and out so some new flooring is definitely needed.

"Hey, what's going on in here?" Brittany asks curiously as she walks into my office.

"I'm going to renovate my office so I'm seeing what looks best in here" I reply.

"I'll tell you what looks best. You on that table right now" she smirks at me.

"Oh really?" I laugh. "You know we can't use the desk anymore" I smirk.

"I know and I was only joking" she shrugs. "Anyway, are you ready for the meeting yet?" she asks me. I am gathering all my head of departments today and then I want to have a meeting with them about the business and how we proceed at the moment after some changes.

"I am" I nod.

"Let's go then" Brittany says while heading to the conference room with me hot on her heels. We're first there so I get set up at the head of the table.

"Is the lighting in here ok or should we close the shutters?" I ask. I've got a presentation to show everyone so I want to make sure they can see it.

"It looks fine to me" Brittany tells me.

"Ok, good" I nod. "Take a seat then instead of standing awkwardly at the door" I tell her.

"Right, yeah" she shrugs before taking a seat at the other end of the table as we wait on everyone else joining us.

"What are you doing away over there?" I frown in confusion.

"Sitting down like you told me too" she replies.

"I meant why did you choose that seat Brittany when there are at least 10 chairs around the table?" I ask, rephrasing my question.

"I just picked a random seat Santana, I didn't really think about it" Brittany states, rolling her eyes at me.

"Sit here" I say, tired of this little charade going on. "Brittany, sit here" I say again while pointing to the chair next to me.

"Alright" she states while grabbing her things and moving to the empty seat next to me. "We can hardly get handsy with one another when you're way over there" I add.

"We're working though and other people will be here" she tells me as she sits down.

"I know but half of your colleagues bore me to death so you can't expect me to sit here and actually listen to them. I'm going to be at least eye fucking you or playing footsy or having a cheeky grope of your thigh under the table" I reply while squeezing her knee under the table.

"Ok but don't embarrass me in front of everyone" she states.

"Would I ever?" I question.

"Uh…yeah" Brittany laughs.

"I mean I wouldn't embarrass you in a way like that" I reply. Ok, I might have given her the odd warning in front of everyone or called her out on things she does wrong at work but I would never make it obvious we're involved sexually.

"People don't need to know you're getting me turned on" she tells me.

"Trust me, they would see it on me first" I assure her. "It's just some light flirting to pass the time, that's all" I shrug before leaning over to peck her lips since no one is here yet.

XXX

Finally, the meeting is all done. Boy was I right when I predicted I would get bored half way through. It's fine that all my employees have suggestions but they go on and on instead of getting to the point. I didn't need the life story of how all of these money saving ways came about, I just needed the solution. I mean one girl told me all about how it came to her in the car and what road she was on when it happened and how long into her journey she was. I mean I really didn't need to know all that. Also, someone gave me another idea but had to make sure I understood how it came about first which was during their kids' bath time. I mean for fucks sake; do I care about their little brat or do I care about my business?

"Will you hurry up and get inside" I say while pulling Brittany abruptly into my office before slamming the door shut.

"Easy" she laughs as she rubs her arm where I was pulling on it.

"Seeing you take control of that meeting today was so fucking sexy" I say as I pull her into a kiss. It was my meeting to lead but at many times throughout I could see Brittany stepping in and bringing it back to the topic when the others started talking about irrelevant things i.e. the car journey and the kids' bath time.

"I could actually say the same to you" she smirks at me.

"You think I'm sexy today?" I ask with a smirk. I know I am but it's nice to hear to get a little ego boost every now and again.

"Always" she smiles.

"Good" I smile back before pushing her against the broken desk as I kiss her roughly.

"Wait a second…can you smell that?" Brittany asks as she frowns in disgust.

"No, I can't smell anything" I reply while pulling away. It's quite concerning though that Brittany thinks there's a horrible smell in my office. "Is it bad?" I ask.

"There's definitely a smell in here" she states.

"What does it smell like?" I ask, still concerned that there's an unpleasant smell in my office.

"It smells like desperation" she smirks at me.

"Fuck you" I laugh.

"It's so cute how desperate you are right now for me" she smirks again at me.

"It's so not cute how desperate you are to not have sex with me" I say, unamused by the interruption. Any other time it's cute to joke around but not as I'm about to undress and get her off.

"Uh…what?" she asks taken aback.

"On a serious note, what is going on here?" I ask with a sigh.

"What do you mean?" she replies confused.

"It feels like I'm more into you than you're into me. I mean I know I said I don't want anything and it's just fun but even when I am trying to have fun, I get the feeling you aren't too bothered about having sex with me" I point out. I just have this feeling all the time that I'm the one that makes the first move 90% of the time and right now seems like a prime example. Why would she interrupt us to joke when we're about to get intimate?

"I thought you didn't do feelings?" she asks with a smirk.

"I'm being serious here Brittany so can you fucking take this seriously. I don't have feelings for you but it doesn't mean I don't have feelings in general and when it seems like someone isn't into me then I need to point it out. If you don't want to do this anymore then tell me and we'll stop. I can easily find someone else so it's no big deal to me if we stop this whole thing" I tell her.

"Sorry" she apologises. "I tend to joke and make light of a situation when I get nervous" she admits.

"Like I say all the time, your job is safe so if you want to end this game between us then it's fine. I'd rather not keep sleeping with someone who doesn't like it. I can easily go back to being just your boss and I won't hold this against you" I reply. The sex was good but I can easily move on from her because it was literally just fun so I'm sure in time I'll find someone else that's good in bed. At the end of the day she is still one of my best employees regarding work so I won't fire her.

"I am into you and I don't want to end us having fun" Brittany tells me honestly.

"I'm not going to chase you around Brittany so if we keep doing this and I'm always the one making the first move then I'll stop what we have" I tell her seriously. I don't follow people around like a puppy dog. The only reason I have continued to make the first move or suggest we have sex is because when we do have sex it is fun.

"Believe me, I am super into you. I mean that night you had your mom's birthday dinner, I suggested we had sex and then today when you were telling me about renovating the office" she points out.

"I know but, on the whole, I seem to be the one suggesting it more and that's not me. I don't chase or beg people to have sex" I state.

"Seriously Santana, I'm into this as much as you are. I promise" she states. "I'm just confused sometimes because this is your place of work and I work for you."

"What do you mean?" I ask somewhat confused. I'm not sure I totally see where she is going with this.

"I work for you so when I'm at work I want to do my best and make your business a success otherwise I get fired. Therefore, I need to be professional and do what you need me to do so I don't always think suggesting sex at work is appropriate because I won't have the time to work" she tells me. "When we are at work though, all I really want to do is rip your clothes off all the time" she smirks.

"I'm not going to fire you Brittany. I'm really not so you don't need to worry about that. I know you work hard so you don't need to get concerned about not getting things done. If the moment is there and you want to have fun then let's do it" I shrug.

"Am I your best worker?" she asks with a smirk.

"Come on, don't get cocky" I say while rolling my eyes at her. "The bottom line is that we're on the same page so honestly, stop worrying about work and have fun. I'll let you know if it isn't appropriate so if I don't mention anything then we can have fun" I tell her. I've spent so much of my time in the past on my own working so it's really refreshing these days to have Brittany have fun with me so I'm more than ok to stop work when one of us is in the mood.

"Ok" she nods. "I am sorry for making you think I wasn't into you because I really am" she smiles at me.

"It's no big deal Brittany" I shrug.

"No it is because thinking someone is messing you around and isn't into you can be a little humiliating so I do need to apologise for that. I honestly didn't know where the boundaries were because at the end of the day, I still work for you so we all still need to keep the business afloat" she says honestly.

"Can we not get into this too deep because it's making me uncomfortable. I'm not a feelings person so let's not get all sentimental and shit. The only feelings I have right now are the ones in my pants so can you undress please" I state.

"I wouldn't exactly say I was being sentimental; I was just trying to…"

"I don't care. Can you just take off your damn pants please because I want to have sex with you before the moment completes goes" I say. One of my biggest turnoffs is someone expressing their feelings so that's not ideal when Brittany talks like that because I really do just want to have sex with her.
