"Alright guys sectionals is coming up in a couple of weeks so we need to start planning our set list" Mr Shue told us.
This is usually the part where most people zone out but Rachel took the opportunity to talk to me.
"San" Rach whispered.
"Yeah?" I replied
"Finn was invited to this party he asked me if I wanted to go as well, but I said I would only go if you go with me. So do you wanna go with me?" She asked
"I'll go. . . but only if you promise to keep me company and not run off with finn" I added
"You know I won't. Finn will probably be hanging out with his football friends anyway. So it'll pretty much just be you and me"
"Well then, count me in" I replied with a smile.

"So a party, huh? That should be pretty fun" Brittany said
Ever since last week when I first met Brittany I've been coming in here ever day after school for coffee. Brittany is always super nice and sometimes lets me skip the lines since she knows my order. Every few days she'll come and sit with me on her break and we talk -like today- . I found out that she recently dropped out of college to become a dance teacher and to move closer to her family. Brittany is all types of awesome, not to mention drop dead gorgeous and extremely charming.
"Yeah, I'm actually a little nervous. I've only been to a party once before and someone threw up on me" I said with a grimace at the memory.
"You know, you would be less nervous if you brought a special someone. Sooooo" she said making the word longer than necessary "you gonna bring, like, a date?" She asked in a flirty tone.
"Why do you ask?" I replied sounding just as flirty. I hope.
Also yes, I've gained a lot more confidence when talking to Brittany now.
"Just curious" she stated with a mysterious smirk. "If you ever need one you know who to call"
"Are you always this flirtatious?" I asked with a giggle.
"Only for the cute ones" she added with a wink.
Well if my face wasn't red before. . .

"Okay so just remember, we can NOT get drunk. We need to do everything in our power to not embarrass ourselves tonight" I said sternly.
"Yeah, I know. You've told us about 200 times now" Rachel said with a huff.
"Santana just chill out. Nothing bad is gonna happen. Now you two need to enjoy the party" Finn said kissing Rachel on the cheek then walking off to go find his football friend I presume.
"Well look who it is!" I heard from behind us.
Great of course Sam and Quinn would be here. I don't know why I didn't plan for this.
"What do you want?" I said sounding bored although I'm pretty sure my face gave off the scared look that I was really feeling.
"You know I'm pretty sure this is a party. But I could be wrong since I don't know why you guys are here" Sam said with a smirk and a chuckle. Quinn laughed along with him. Obviously.
"Oops I spilt my drink. You might want to clean that up" Quinn said staring at my shoes.
They walked away laughing and left me with my shoes soaked with what is probably alcohol.
"Are your shoes alright?" Rachel asked
"Yeah. . . I think so" I replied "I mean, they're probably forever stained but they didn't cost that much so it doesn't really matter"
"Hey um. . . so I'm probably being a terrible friend but I just spotted some friends from my dance class so I was gonna go talk to them if that's alright" Rachel said obviously nervous as to what my reaction would be.
"Hey don't worry I'll be fine. Go talk to your dance friends or whatever" I replied.
If I'm being completely honest I didn't really want Rachel to leave me on my own but I also wasn't going to stop there from seeing her other friends.
I went over to a counter that had the drinks on them and started pouring myself a glass of God knows what.
"What's a pretty girl like you doing here all alone" said a voice from behind me. Wait, I know that voice.
I turned around to see my guess was correct. Brittany was standing about 3 feet away from with a toothy grin.
"Brittany! What are you doing here" I said excitedly
"I was invited to a party by my brother so I thought I'd show up" She said with a shrug.
"Well, I'm glad you're here" I replied with a warm smile.
"You didn't answer my original question. What are you doing here alone" She asked.
"Oh no, I'm not here alone. I'm here with my friend Rachel, she just went off to talk to some of her friends though" I replied.
"Is Rachel the one that you sometimes come to The Lima Bean with?" She questioned.
"Yup. That would be Rachel, Loud and obnoxious but also my best friend" I said which earned a breathy laugh from Britt.
Wait did I just call her Britt!?
"Well, now you got me to keep you company" she added with a smile
"Your not here with a friend?" I asked
"Well my brother is with his girlfriend so I don't exactly feel like being their third wheel and I was here with my friend Sugar but she went off to make out with some guy" she answered with a shrug which made me laugh a little. "You planning of ditching me to go make out with some guy too?"
"Wouldn't think of it. Especially the guy halve of it" I said with a wink. Yup, the alcohol us definitely starting to kick in.
"So you're gay?" She said
"To put it bluntly, yeah, I'm gay" I replied
"Good to know" Brittany responded while batting her eyelashes at me.
We spent to next 3 hours just talking about anything. Normally when we sit down and talk at The Lima Bean she has to go back to work after about 20 minutes or so. Also turns out Rachel was hanging out with her dancer friends for a lot longer than '2 minutes' but hey, I'm not really complaining because now I get to talk to Britt for an extensive amount of time.
"San I hate to interrupt but we should probably get going" Rachel walked up to us and said.
"Sure" I got up "Also Brittany I expect to finish this game of two truths and a lie some time soon" I said to Brittany
"Well, how about I just give you my phone number and we can finish it on a call" She replied smoothly.
all the confidence I had 20 seconds ago was gone and suddenly my face was as red as a tomato.
"She would love to have your number" Rachel answered for me. This is why we are best friends everyone.
Brittany just laughed and we exchanged numbers.
