Heartbrake (Demi Lovato/Santana Lopez)

Chapter 4

Thanks for all the reads and the votes.  I have read some amazing stories on this site that truly inspired me to give this a whirl.  I’m a complete virgin when it comes to writing stories but I have this one in my head that I keep seeing play out so I’m trying to get it written down.  Easier said than done!  :)

Over the next few months, Santana and Demi spent a fair amount of time together at least as much as their busy schedules would allow.  They were enjoying getting to know each other.  Whether it was working out, catching a movie, grabbing coffee or a meal, their friendship just seemed to click.  Santana really enjoyed having someone to hang with.  Demi got her sarcasm and was her equal in throwing it back out while mixing in some of her own goofiness.  At the end of the day, Santana just didn’t have that many close friends in town – at least ones that she would want to make an effort for.  Obviously she was close to Quinn and Rachel but they were just as busy as she was right now and their schedules almost never lined up.  So, it was nice to spend time with Demi.  Demi made her laugh and that’s something she just really needed to do.

It was a typical Saturday.  Santana was sipping her morning coffee and reading the news on her ipad while the kids were piled in front of the TV watching cartoons.  She heard a knock at the door and got up to see who it was.

“Hey, Santana!”

“Quinn!  Hey – what’s up with you?” said Santana as she opened the door and motioned for Quinn to come in.

“Well, I hadn’t seen you and the kids for a few weeks, so I figured I would drop by before I headed to run some errands.”

“Aunt Quinn!!” the kids said in unison as they ran up to give Quinn hugs.

“Hey guys!  I’ve missed you!”

“We have missed you, too!” they said before cartoons captured their attention again.

“Work has been crazy for me.  Sorry we haven’t come by for visit.” said Santana smiling as she watched the kids plop back down in front of the TV.

“Me, too.  Hard to believe that we are at the same company but barely see each other.  What else have you been up to besides work?”

“Well, I’ve been spending a fair amount of time hanging with Demi.”

“That’s cool.  I still want to meet her sometime soon.”

Jordy’s ears perked up and he whined, “Mom – when can we do something with her?  It’s not fair!  You know how much l love her.  When can we see her?”

“Jordy, I promise we’ll do something as a family with her soon.  Let Aunt Quinn and talk, ok?”

Jordy pouted and returned his gaze to the TV.

Santana and Quinn walked into the kitchen.  Santana got a refill on her coffee and poured a cup for Quinn.

“I really want you to meet her, too, Quinn.  She’s great and is obviously a hottie.  So down to earth, has good perspective on things and she’s pretty athletic – clumsy at times, but athletic nonetheless.” said Santana laughing.

“I have heard that.  So, it’s true?” said Quinn laughing.

“Totally.  I mean, we can be just walking to go workout or to a restaurant or something and then all of a sudden I look over and she is on the ground.  I mean – it’s not funny, but it kind of is.”  said Santana smirking.
