My Heart Knows EDITING

Chapter 3

Dani's P.O.V

Santana pulled me out of the small diner and out onto the dimly lit street. She walked towards a bus stop, dragging me along behind her, making me smile. As we waited for the bus, she turned to me. "Dani?" she asked, "Hmm?" I replied, deep in thought about my family and Karla. "Dani!" I heard again, causing me to snap my head towards her, "Yes? Sorry" I said, "It's okay, are you okay?" she asked, worried. "I'm fine" I said, knowing I was lying to her. She stepped closer to me, taking my hand, and she pushed my chin up to force me to look into her eyes. I realised then that she is a few inches taller than me and makes me look like a midget.

"No, no you're not okay. What's wrong?" she said, concerned. Damn, this girl has known me for less than a day and already knows me. "I'm worried, about my sister" I said honestly, "Don't, Dani. Don't worry, you said so yourself, she's with Jordan now. Shes safe" she reassured, her voice, so soft, was in a way comforting. She pulled me into a hug and I was hit with her vanilla scent again. I smiled. I've known her for less than a day, and shes already changing my life.

The bus pulled up to the stop and we got on without hesitation. I sat next to Santana and started humming a song. We had been on the bus for about 10 minutes when she stood up, pulling me by the hand and interlocking our fingers. She thanked the driver and got off the bus, our fingers still intertwined. We walked down a road and came to an apartment building. We walked inside and came to a stop outside a sliding door. She unlocked it and pulled it open, revealing the most beautiful apartment I have ever seen. Ever.

She walked in and pulled me in after her, shutting the door. "Thank god Berry and Kurt aren't back yet" she said quietly, "What?" I asked. Who the heck are Berry and Kurt? "Oh, they're my friends, they live here also" She said, I nodded, smiling. Maybe I'll make friends here after all.

"You know, you don't have to just stand there" She said, smirking at me. I smiled and walked towards the small red sofa that she was sat on. I sat down next to her and sighed. "Thank you, for letting me stay here, and for being..there for me to talk to" I said sincerely, turning to her. "I'm not leaving you homeless Dani!" She said, "And plus, you're hot, so I get something out of this too." She winked at me and I blushed a deep shade of red with that compliment, damn genetics making me blush really obviously. If that doesn't confirm she's a lesbian, I don't know what does! "Aww, you're blushing" she said, mockingly, "B-but, doesn't that comment creep you out a little?" she asked, nervously. I laughed, "Well, no. Considering I'm a Lesbian and all" I said, still laughing, she grinned, then blushed, then grinned again, then really blushed. Which caused me to laugh even harder. I continued with my laughing fit for a while until I was finally able to breathe again, when my eyes met hers, she was staring at me. "Y-you have a mesmerising laugh Dani" she said, still stunned, "Why thank you, Miss Santana" I said, chuckling lightly and slightly blushing at her compliment.

She smiled and stood up. "Thirsty?" she asked and I nodded. She walked into a room which I'm guessing is the kitchen. She looked up at a cupboard and turned around, looked at me, and looked up again. She turned around once more, grinning, and grabbed some soda from the fridge. She walked towards me and completely faked realization. "Oh my god Dani!" she said, in a voice that was completely mocking fake shock, I laughed at her. "What?" I said, copying her voice. "I totally forgot the glasses, can you get them for me? They're in the cupboard above the fridge" she said, I nodded confused and walked towards the kitchen, why would she want me to get them? I looked up at the cupboard and realization hit me. I would have to stand on my tiptoes to reach the cupboard, and my shirt would slide up, giving her the perfect view of my back and stomach. "Santana you cheeky thing" I said under my breath and decided to put on a show for her. I exaggerated reaching up towards the cupboard and sure enough, my shirt slid up, giving her the perfect view. I turned around and she was staring. Well, more like gaping at me. She was practically drooling. "Close your mouth Santana, you'll catch flies" I called and she went red, I laughed and walked into the lounge. She looked really embarrassed, I chuckled, "Don't worry San, I don't mind you checking me out" I said winking, she blushed, "That's cute, you called me San, I like it" She said, I grinned, "Me too" I said, smiling, and drinking my soda.

We sat around for a while just talking. I told her every detail of my past, which is strange considering I've never told anyone before, or ever wanted to. She told me about her in high school. About how she was the queen bitch. Although she said, and I quote, 'I wasn't being a bitch, just brutally honest' which made me laugh. She also told me about her ex, Brittany. How she broke up with San for a guy called Sam. It broke Santana's heart. She didn't say that but I could tell. She loved that girl. Anyway, she told me stories about her high school Glee club which were funny. And I told her about my sister Karla. I really want San to meet Karla one day. Not yet, but one day. She'd like her.

We'd been talking for over 3 hours and it was dark by the time Santana's friends got home. She ran outside to see them, probably to tell them about me. I hope they are okay with it. They stayed outside for a little bit and then she walked back inside. She put her hand out, motioning for me to go to her. I walked to her and she intertwined our fingers, like she did after we got off the bus. It gave me shivers up my arm and down my spine, I think she realised because she grinned beside me. We waited and soon a small, bubbly, brown haired girl came running in, I've seen this girl before, at the diner! "Hi, Dani. I'm Rachel, so nice to meet you! I hope you make yourself at home here, you are very welcome" She said, happily, I like her, I smiled gratefully "Thank you Rachel" I said as she pulled me into a hug. Next came a taller boy, "Hi, I'm Kurt, you must be Dani, nice to meet you" He said smiling at me. I smiled back kindly, "Nice to meet you too, Kurt"

I looked between the two of them and wondered if they are together. "Are you two-" I say before Rachel clasps a hand over my mouth. "No! Ew! That's weird, he's like my brother. Plus, I have a boyfriend" She said, I nod and laugh, "And I have a boyfriend too" Kurt says, hes gay? "Aww that's cute" I say smiling. "Well, technically he is my fiancé" he says and I grin, "Congratulations" I say and he smiles. "Speaking of boyfriends, how is donkey face?" Santana asks, "Honestly Santana, stop this. You're just jealous!" Rachel says dismissively. "Of what?" San sneers, I elbow her in the ribs, "Ow!" she cries, "San, be nice!" I say and she shuts up. Both Rachel and Kurt stare at me, "What?" I ask, "You just told her what to do, and she didn't slap you AND she did it!" Kurt cried, I laughed, and Santana blushed, "Awww" cooed Rachel causing San to glare at her, "We're going now" She said, pulling me out of the room, me laughing.
