You and Me

Chapter 13

It's Saturday night, and everyone in the glee club is hanging out in Santana's basement. Everyone is off doing something, and everyone is having a good time. Tina and Mike are playing against Rachel and Finn in foosball, Kurt and Blaine are having fun with the karaoke machine that Santana set up, Marley, Sugar and Brittany are hanging around the bar counter talking, Sam and Ryder are playing pool, Santana and Puck are playing ping pong, Artie is watching and is cheering on whoever's winning, and Mercedes and Quinn are sitting on one of the couches talking.

As Quinn and Mercedes talk, Quinn can't help but be a little side tracked as she watches Santana play ping pong. She looks extremely sexy as she plays in her in her tight black ripped jeans, and tight red short sleeve top. Quinn is practically drooling as she watches.

"Damn, girl. Someone's got a crush." Mercedes says with a smirk.

Quinn snaps her head to Mercedes, "Sorry, what?"

Mercedes chuckles. "I swear, Santana is the queen of making people question their sexuality."

Quinn giggles and blushes. "Was I that obvious?"

"Oh extremely," Mercedes says. "So, you like Santana?"

Quinn's face immediately breaks out in a deeper blush as she shyly nods her head with a cute smile.

"That's adorable," Mercedes coos. "Does she know?"

"Yeah she does." Quinn smiles as Santana plays with the paddle in her hand, waiting for Puck to serve.

"And....." Mercedes asks.

"Um. We kinda have a weird dynamic right now." Quinn says.

"Explain." Mercedes tells her.

"Well, we're kinda doing everything backwards. I mean, we kissed. And then we told each other that we like each other. And then we kissed again. And then we went on a date. And then we kissed again."

Mercedes chuckles and nods. "So you're like somewhere between dating and friends with benefits?"

"I guess," Quinn says with a light laugh. "I would love to be official, but I don't want to scare her away if she's not ready for that."

"Well for what it's worth, I think you two would be great together." Mercedes smiles.

Quinn grins. "Thank you." She looks back at Santana while she laughs and plays. "I mean, who wouldn't like her? She's just so... perfect. She's beautiful, she's funny, she's talented, she's strong, she's supportive, I love her confidence and how it's just infectious sometimes and the way she talks and thinks is just so refreshing and unique that I could just listen to her talk for hours, and I love how when she laughs really hard she scrunches her nose and squints her eyes. She looks so freaking adorable that—" Quinn abruptly stops talking when she looks at Mercedes who has a knowing look on her face. "What?"

"Sounds like a lot more than a crush to me..." Mercedes chuckles.

Quinn immediately blushes again.

"I think you, Quinn Fabray, are in love with my homegirl Santana Lopez."

Quinn just keeps her head down and bites back a smile. "I think you might be right."

"DAMN IT!"

Mercedes and Quinn snap their attention to the source of the scream, Puck. He dramatically drops his paddle against the table while Santana cracks up. He demands a rematch later, and then walks to Sam and Ryder in defeat. Artie and Santana high five, and then part ways as Artie wheels to join Kurt, Blaine, and now Mike, and Finn at where they were previously just singing karaoke, but switched the TV settings so they could play Wii. And Santana joins Sugar, Marley and Brittany at the bar counter.
