Dance For Me

Chapter Five ▫ Feels Good.

Brittany's POV

I flop down on my bed from exhaustion.

The first week of hell is finally over and I couldn't be happier. Class after class, lecture after lecture it's all so much.

When I'm not in class I'm studying with Tatum. When I'm not studying I'm working out with Zen. When I'm not working out I'm texting or on the phone with Santana. Monday morning Zen gave me Santana's number and said she asked me to text her. Now we've been texting nonstop and I actually enjoy it.

My eyes start to flutter shut but snap open when a shirt is whipped at my face and Tatum's annoying ass laugh hits my ears.

Brittany:(Groans)What the fuck Tatum?

Tatum:Get up and change.

Brittany:Why?

Tatum:Because there's a rally or something happening in a little bit and we're going.

Brittany:Bitch fuck a rally. My desk is full of textbooks and papers I have to do.

Tatum:That's what Saturdays and Sundays are for dumb ass. Friday nights are for parties and rallies.

Brittany:(Mumbles)Fuck you and that rally.

Tatum:Santana and Zen are going.

Brittany:Tell them I said hi.

Tatum:Oh come on you know you wanna see her ass so stop playing games.

Brittany:Quit trying to get me to go after her dude. She has a boyfriend and she's straight.

Tatum:Bi.

Brittany:Bye see yah later.

Tatum:Dummy I mean she's bi. As in bisexual.

Brittany:How do you know?

Tatum:Zen told me.

Brittany:Why?

Tatum:Because she peeped that you're feeling her roommate and she's helping.

Brittany:(Laughs)Yall need to chill out.

Tatum:Bro I just want you to admit it.

Brittany:I'm not afraid to say that I like Santana Tatum.

Tatum:Then what's stopping you from going after her?

Brittany:The guy that is always groping her whenever I see her. What's he called? Oh right her boyfriend.

Tatum:Fuck a boyfriend and get yours.

Brittany:(Laughs)She's not mine man that's what you don't get.

Tatum:So you're really not coming?

Brittany:No. I got too much to do.

Tatum:Alright lame ass. (Puts on his snapback)Deuces. I'll tell them you said hey.

Brittany:Cool.

Tatum:(Leaves).

I spend an hour studying just one subject before I decide to take a break. As I stretch out my arms someone knocks on my door so I get up to answer it. When I open the door I come face to face with the girl I've grown to like over the past week.

Santana.

Brittany:Hey. What are you doing here?

Santana:Are you not happy to see me?

Brittany:I'm always happy to see you. I just thought you'd be at the rally.

Santana:I was but Tatum told me you weren't coming because you had to study so I thought I'd join you. (Raises up her backpack).
