Chapter 5
Santana woke up at 10:00 and immediately felt the pangs of hunger coursing through her body. She silently cursed Rachel for stealing Quinn this morning since she always makes the best breakfast. She padded sleepily through the kitchen and made a fresh pot of coffee. She poked her head in fridge to look at her options but decided that she was too lazy to actually cook something and instead just popped out good old Cap 'n Crunch.
Santana flopped down in front of the couch with her coffee and bowl of cereal prepared to sit on her ass the whole day in front of the TV. After an hour her mind was numb from watching back to back episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, she let her thoughts wander to the events the previous night. She was not sorry at all that she lost her temper, the bitch deserved it and she just hoped that Brittany missed the reference to her parent's house in the Hamptons. She then thought about Brittany and how beautiful she looked last night, goosebumps erupted in her skin when she realized that they kissed twice, once when Brittany kissed her on the cheek and the second one when she kissed Brittany on the lips while they were dancing. Santana brushed it off to the fact that the last time she was intimate was someone was roughly a year ago, a one night stand to celebrate her return to New York although she doesn't mind hanging out with Brittany more. She wasn't lying when she said she had a great time with her last night, Brittany was funny and easy to talk to and she hoped that she can add Brittany to her small list of friends. God knows she needs more of them since she wasn't really winning any Miss Congeniality titles in her job. She was brought back to reality when she felt her phone vibrate and saw a message from Quinn.
Brittany didn't know what possessed her to call Mike immediately after waking up to take him up on his offer. Luckily he had a rehearsal scheduled that morning and invited Brittany in. She was a bit nervous when she arrived at the studio, she hasn't really danced in quite some time much less choreographed but she was pleased to find out that dancing was still as easy as breathing for her. She and Mike got a few routines done and Mike filled her in on what happened after she and Santana left the party. Jackie basically told everyone who cared to listen that it was Brittany's loss. She finally passed out drunk and Sarah had to ask someone to drop her off at her apartment. Her old instincts kicked in and genuinely felt sorry for Jackie but she remembered how rude she was last night to Santana and hopes that what happened can teach Jackie a lesson or two. On the way home her thoughts wandered to her pretend girlfriend, by all accounts Santana was an enigma but she was surprised at how comfortable she was with Santana, once Santana loosened up, she's very witty and funny, smiled more giving Brittany a glimpse of her cute dimples plus there's that tiny fact that she was a good kisser. Brittany blushed at the thought of the kiss they shared, even though it was all part of the act she had to admit that it made her swoon for a couple of seconds and left her craving for more. She arrived at her apartment and took a shower to wash off the sweat from her body and grab some lunch after. While drying her hair, she heard her phone beep and saw a message from Quinn.
Santana arrived at Central Park wearing black skinny jeans and a white v-neck shirt. She was carrying a small bag that held her keys, wallet, a book and her iPad. She wanted something that can tune out Treasure Trail if ever she goes off on one of her rants that only Quinn finds adorable. She made her way to Sheep Meadow and scanned through the crowds to look for her friends. She sent Quinn a text message to ask her to describe their exact location since she knew it was futile to look for them amidst the sea of people enjoying a lazy Sunday afternoon in the park. After a few minutes she saw Quinn's reply and proceeded to where they were situated.
Santana was surprised to find another blonde lounging in the blanket laid out in the grass. Brittany saw her and ran up to her to give her a brief hug.
"Hey San! Quinn said you were coming!." Brittany said who was a bit surprised at how excited she was when she found out that Santana was joining them for their picnic and noted how Santana managed to look beautiful with just jeans and a t-shirt, she was even wearing her glasses that for some strange reason made her look extra hot.
