S2 Ep1: Auditions- The Devil wears Prada

Gabriela and Brittany were walking down the hallway when they heard a loud bang from just ahead of them. Gabriela ran foward to see what it was, taking Brittany by the hand and pulling her as she ran.

Turns out it was Santana that pushed Quinn against the lockers.

"You did this to me! You told coach Sylvester about my summer surgery!" Santana shouted at Quinn

"You have a surgery when you get your appendix out, you got a boob job." Quinn yelled back.

"Yup, sure did." Santana smacked Quinn hard across her face.

"You can't hit me." The blonde threatened.

"Oh sure i can, unless you got yourself knocked up again slut."

Quinn pushed Santana against the lockers, Santana flipping them around. 

"Stop the violence." Brittany said

Quinn grabbed her hair and pulled it, causing Santana to push her down to the floor.

Mr Shue stepped in before any more damage could be done.

Gabriela decided to help out and grabbed Santana by her waist holding her back

"Hey, hey, hey! What is this? What happened to us being a family?" He asked holding Quinn back.

"Oh please, she has a family, shes a mother" Santana said as Gabriela continued to drag her away from Quinn.

"Walk away! And tighten up your pony before you get to class!" Quinn shouted after her.

As soon as they were far enough, Gabriela let her go. She stood in silence with crossed arms, watching Santana tighten up her hair like Quinn had told her to a few seconds ago.

Santana turned to see Gabriela looking at her "What?"

"What the hell was that Santana?" Gabriela asked her.

"She told coach Sylvester about the work I got done. Then Sue removed me as head cheerleader and put me at the bottom of the pyramid." She complained.

"Okay but still. You can't just go around beating people up." Gabriela told her sighing.

"She deserved it." She whispered

"What was that?" Gabriela asked her

"Nothing. I can't promise i won't get into a fight with anyone again, but I'll try not to. Okay?"

She was satisfied with that answer. "That's fine. Also, call me if you ever need help. Just not if you're fighting against Brittany or Quinn."

"Yeah, yeah. I will." She jokingly rolled her eyes and smiled at the girl.

Gabriela entered her house and called out for someone. "Mom? Father? Miguel?" No answer.

Well thats weird.
She thought to herself.

She wondered where they could've been. They hadn't left a note or anything.

She shrugged it off and walked up the stairs to her bedroom. She set her bag down and changed out of her Cheerios uniform.

Her phone buzzed indicating she had received message.

"Hey. Its Andre." The message read.

She picked up her phone and typed in response to the football player. "Hey. How'd you get my number?"

Barely seconds later the boy replied to her again. "Finn gave it to me. Is that a problem?"

She took her time before replying once again, not trying to seem desperate. " No, not at all"

"Okay cool. So how are you?"

"Im good. And you?" She was now laying on her bed while talking to him.  

"Im aight. Shit i gtg talk tmrw?" It was already dark, but still too early to go to bed. She wondered what made him have to leave, but couldn't be bothered to ask

"Goodnight darling" He said before going off and doing whatever it was that he needed to.

The cheerleader lightly blushed before putting her phone down. There was a knock at her door. She went to see who it was, and was slightly surprised to see her best friend.

"Hey. Whats up? Why are you here so late?" Gabriela asked her

"I was around, so I thought I'd stop by." She shrugged. "Can I come in? Its kinda cold and I don't have a jacket."

"Oh, yeah, sorry. Come in." She opened the door for the slightly taller girl to enter.

"Are you home alone?" She asked due too the unusual quietness of the house.

Normally Miguel would be sitting watching TV with Gabriela's step father and her mother would be cooking dinner in the kitchen, usually Paella, with old Spanish love songs playing in the background. Santana had been over way too often to not know the usual routine of Gabriela's household

"Yup. I have no idea where everyone is." She replied. "Do you wanna watch a movie?"

"Yes." Santana saw her looking through the movies. "Please tell me it's not The Devil wears Prada again." She giggled when the girl frowned.

"I would tell you it's not, but i wouldn't want to lie to you." Gabby honestly told her favorite person.

"But we watched that two weeks ago." Santana complained

"I know, but come on. It's such a great movie." She walked up to Santana and took both of her hands in her own, pulling her to the couch and flashing her puppy eyes.

"Fine" Santana gave in. "Only because you're my favorite person ever." She sat on the couch and pulled Gabby down into her arms.

Gabriela took the remote and pressed play before snuggling into Santana's side.

Santana looked down at the girl who flashed her a smile. It was the prettiest smile Santana had ever seen, even though she's seen it many yimes before. She knew she was one of the lucky few to see Gabriela's smile, since she didn't smile often and only at the other girls that were apart of the Final four.

Santana felt a warm, fuzzy feeling in her stomach. It was probably the heat in Gabriela's house, so she brushed it off.

The two best friends sat for the rest of the night watching Gabriela's favorite movie and cuddling, as the friends they were.
