Chapter 19
The two of them ended up at Veselka, deciding against going to the movies since they were both starving. Santana ordered enough food to feed a small army and while waiting for their food both girls were quiet as if shy from the sudden turn of events. Although they were avoiding each others eyes, both of their gazes were fixed on their hands intertwined together on top of the table and they both had this goofy smile plastered on their faces. Brittany admired the contrast of their skin and the way their fingers fit together. Santana was doing the same and she also started to run her thumb across Brittany's hand, loving the feel of Brittany's soft skin against her own.
The trance that both girls were in was broken when their food arrived. They reluctantly let go of each other's hand but not before giving each other a stupid grin and Brittany couldn't help but press a small kiss on Santana's cheeks when her dimples made an appearance. At first they ate silently, enjoying the food and each other's company. It was Santana who broke the comfortable silence when she giggled at the sight of Brittany devouring the borscht soup. Brittany looked up with a puzzled expression on her face and instead of answering; Santana leaned in to wipe some of the soup that dribbled down the corner of Brittany's mouth. Brittany gave Santana a sappy smile at the gesture.
"Is your Dad going to be ok?" Santana asked Brittany who was thoughtfully chewing a piece of kielbasa.
Brittany gave her a sad smile, which worried Santana, and said, "He needs to go into surgery." Santana then took Brittany's hand to give it a squeeze and a kiss.
"I'm sorry Britt. Do you want me to talk to my Dad for a second opinion? He's a pretty bad ass surgeon in LA and you know my family loves you so I'm sure he'll do it in a heartbeat." Santana offered, giving Brittany a shy smile.
Brittany closed the distance between their bodies to give Santana a kiss that made Santana close her eyes when their lips connected while Brittany smiled at the taste of pierogis in Santana's mouth.
"Thank you and I'll talk to my mom and sister about it." Brittany whispered against Santana's lips before giving her another quick peck on the lips.
Both girls continued devouring their food and after a few more minutes of comfortable silence filled with goofy grins and feeding each other kielbasa, Brittany finally asked Santana about Allison.
"So what happened with Allison?" Brittany asked trying to sound as nonchalant as possible.
"You don't have to answer if you don't want to." Brittany added when she saw Santana arch her eyebrows and a slight blush creep onto her cheeks.
This time it was Santana who leaned in to give Brittany a lingering kiss, lightly sucking on Brittany's bottom lip until a low moan escaped from Brittany's throat. Satisfied, Santana broke contact fighting the groan that threatened to escape her lips at the loss of Brittany's lips on hers.
Smiling at Brittany's slightly swollen lips, Santana tucked a wayward hair behind Brittany's ear and said quietly, "She wanted me back."
Santana could see the pout starting to form in Brittany's lips and she couldn't help but give her a quick peck on the lips. "But I told her about you and that our story is just beginning while hers and mine had already ended. I finally said goodbye." Santana added smiling at Brittany who was beaming back at her.

After an hour they found themselves at the dance studio where Brittany was attempting to teach Santana some dance moves. As it turned out, Santana wasn't a bad dancer at all and Brittany found herself grinning at the way their bodies moved in the mirrors lining up the studio.
