Chapter 9
Brittany was trying hard to distract Santana with small talk who was now sporting a full on scowl. Quinn and Rachel has decided to make the most of the 2 1/2 hours travel from Manhattan to the Lopez's house in the Hamptons by making out in the backseat.
Santana's bad mood started when Rachel insisted on leaving an hour earlier than what they originally planned. Quinn offered to drive but that means Rachel will be in the passenger seat and therefore has control on the songs they will be listening to. After an internal struggle between getting a nap in the backseat and listening to Rachel belting out the soundtrack to Funny Girl, Santana chose the former since with Berry singing she would probably be awake for the whole trip anyway.
Santana and Brittany are now trying hard to ignore the fact that Rachel was now moaning while Quinn leaves hickeys all over Rachel's neck. Santana wanted to slam on the brakes to pull the two girls out of their sex haze, thank God for Brittany who was trying to distract her with idle chat.
An hour into the trip, Quinn and Rachel took a break from their make out session and Quinn started handing out sandwiches to everyone. Santana was surprised when Brittany carefully tore of a piece of sandwich and fed it to her, while her hands are still on the wheel. She saw Quinn look at what transpired through the rear view mirror, her hazel eyes full of questions, Santana ignored Quinn's pointed look and focused on the road and Brittany's hands feeding her. She even wiped Santana's mouth when she saw a hint of mustard in her lips and held the Santana's soda while she sips from the straw.
Santana smiled at Brittany and murmured thanks, her cheeks slightly flushed from the repeated contact of Brittany's finger to her lips. After their New York adventure Santana has been thinking about the blonde more and more. After going home from their dinner with Quinn and Rachel, she stayed up tossing and turning in bed, her mind plagued by thoughts of Brittany, she even stared at the stuffed duck that Brittany gave her as if waiting for it to speak and tell her the secrets of the universe. She also spent an unhealthy amount of time browsing through Brittany's Facebook, smiling at the various pictures of Brittany and staring at their picture together in Central Park admiring the way Brittany's hair glows under the sun. She finally fell asleep at 3 am with the final thought that she was officially going crazy. Brittany was awakening feelings deep inside Santana that she has trained herself to be numb to which is why she was both dreading and looking forward to this trip with Brittany.
They finally arrived at the Lopez's 3 storey house and Brittany was impressed. Santana wasn't lying when she told Jackie that they had a mansion in the Hamptons. They unloaded their things and Santana told them to pick whatever room they want except for her parent's room. Quinn and Rachel picked the guest bedroom while Brittany picked what appears to be Mikaela's room. The room was sparsely decorated with framed pictures of the family probably during one of their vacations here in the Hamptons. She heard a knock on door and Quinn peeked inside the room.
"Britt, we're going out to pick up the turkey and buy food. Wanna come with us? Santana's being grumpy and said she will take a nap." Quinn said
"Is it ok if I stay here? I'm going to try and catch some shut eye too." Brittany answered
"Yeah sure, do you need anything?" Quinn asked.
"No I'm fine." Brittany said giving Quinn a small smile.
"Ok see you later." Quinn replied then closed the door behind her.
Brittany started sorting out her things and putting them in the closet. She changed into linen pants and a simple white shirt and laid her body on the bed and slept.
Santana woke up after 2 hours of nap time feeling refreshed. The house was quiet which means the midget, Quinn and Brittany was still out. She decided to freshen up a little and see if she can scrounge up some coffee in the kitchen. She was surprised when she Brittany at the kitchen sitting in the counter flipping through the book she gave her. Brittany looked up and gave Santana a dazzling smile.
