Julia lept onto the stage, Santana and Layton both on her tail, silently competing as to which one would approach her first. It was Santana. Of course.
Julia looked over to her right and noticed the brown-eyed girl next to her, quickly grabbing her hand as the glee club began to run in a circle, jumping off of the stage steps and wildly dancing. So wild that Julia didn't even notice how Santana looked over her shoulder and smirked at Layton who was running behind them and sent a glare Santana's way.
The group eventually gathered in the middle of the stage, putting their heads down and staring at the ground. But the two Latinas couldn't help but peek over at each other as they would rather be staring into each other's eyes rather than at the floor.
The glee club then split into two sections on opposite sides of the stage, Julia and Santana ending up on one side while Layton sang on the other, gritting his teeth at the fact that he wasn't in Santana's place.
But soon, the two groups met once again and Layton pushed his way to Julia as the two sung the lyrics whilst jumping up and down into each other's faces, Layton finally smiling, looking up to see Santana staring at them before tearing her eyes away, not wanting to be caught by the sophomore.
Soon, Julia, as well as the other members, pumped their fists in their air. Julia, so in the moment, didn't even realize the way Santana crept up next to her and sent another devilish smirk Layton's way.
The kids, plus Sue, of course, took seats on the edge of the stage, Julia swinging her legs back and forth. Her angelic yet powerful voice was absolutely stunning to Santana and made her want to stop singing mid-song, just to enjoy it.
Julia continued to belt out the lyrics, leaning her head on Santana's shoulder for a brief period of time, Santana absolutely melting at the contact before Julia pulled away. While Santana, and Julia too, missed the touch, shortly after, Julia grabbed Santana's hand, the two girls jumping off the stage to finish off the song.
That's where their hands stayed for a long while.

"So, how'd the math test go?" Julia asked Brittany as she opened her locker.
"I got a C! That's technically a passing grade!" Brittany cheered as Julia stopped just to turn and give the blonde a hug.
"That's awesome, Brit! I told you you'd do amazing!" Julia smiled into the taller girl's shoulder.
"Thanks, J, you're the best. You never give up on me," Brittany rested her chin on Julia's shoulder, grateful for all the hours of studying Julia helped Brittany with.
"I would never give up on you. Many people can't see it, but you're actually a genius," Julia whispered causing Brittany to giggle before the two pulled away.
"Mendoza!" Julia heard a familiar voice shout as it approached her.
"Hey, Fab-"
"No, don't you 'hey' me. This is all your fault," Quinn shouted, now standing right in front of Julia.
"Uh, what is?" Julia asked, placing her hands on her hips.
"You know what I'm talking about, you bitch!" Quinn yelped, Julia's bitch-face slowly starting to appear.
"What the fuck are you talking about, Fabray?" Julia said through gritted teeth, taking a step closer to the blonde in front of her.
