There about five minutes left in the lunch period Santana and Brittany shared, as they both stood in front of their adjacent lockers.

Santana's eyes dropped from the shelf in her locker where her books were piled, before the words dripped from her mouth.

"So when do you want to do this thing?"

"What thing?" Brittany asked innocently, clueless as ever.

"Raise Berry up the flag poll out front." Santana replied in her second language of sarcasm.

"I-" Brittany started before quickly being interrupted.

"No." Santana started, realizing how easily convinced the blonde girl was and always has been. She continued. "I mean, the whole..." she quickly checked her surroundings, before whispering the rest. "the whole 'telling everyone about us' thing."

"I'm ready when you are." Brittany countered calmly.

Santana had found out the day before that Brittany had already told her parents about them when their relationship had started. So Santana knew she was comfortable with this.

The bell rang for everyone to make their way to class.

"I'll think of something, okay?" Santana added, realizing she was tight for time.

Before the two headed to their respective 4th period classes, they linked pinkies and gave each other some knowing looks.

Santana spent the rest of the school day, before glee club focused on finding a way to tell people about her relationship. Then it finally hit her.

She knew the idea was cheesy and sure it sounded like something out of the 'Rachel Berry Guide To Love', but it made perfect sense.

She was going to sing a song.

After school and glee club had ended and all of the glee club members - with the exception of Santana - had left, she submitted her request.

"Mr. Schue, I know regionals are in a few days and the entire group is really focused on our performance, but I was wondering if maybe I could perform a little number tomorrow?"

Before Mr. Schuester could even get a word out of his surprised face, Santana continued.

"It's not to prove something or anything like that." At least not in glee club she thought to herself. "I just want to loosen things up a bit, you know?"

She knew that that wasn't the real reason behind her sudden urge for a solo, but she didn't feel the need to give him the real reason.

"Sure Santana, that sounds fine. You'd probably have to perform at the end of the day tomorrow though, just because we're really going to need those last few days to focus solely on the regionals set list. So if you're ready and up for it, I'd be more than happy to have you perform tomorrow."

"Thank you so much Mr. Schue!" Santana exclaimed, clearly excited.

She waved goodbye and started to leave the room before Mr. Schuester's voice caught her by surprise.

"Is there any other reason why you wanted to perform?"

She knew he wasn't implying anything, but she wasn't going to risk him finding anything out.

"I guess you'll have to wait and see." She replied endearingly, with a grin on her face.

Santana went straight home and called Brittany To let her know that she couldn't meet up with her tonight. Brittany knew that she was up to something, but assumed that she wanted to keep it a surprise.

"That's fine, I guess. See you at school tomorrow?"

"Yup! Love you." Santana answered with those two words that meant to so much, but were so simple to say.

"Love you too!" Brittany quickly replied, knowing she meant them just as much.

It was nearly the end of the next day's glee club meeting and yet Santana was surprisingly calm. Sure, she'd performed in front of people before, hundreds. Heck, she'd performed on live national television when she was on the cheerios, but nothing like this. Yet that didn't seem to faze her.

She'd heard the song once on her parents' radio, when she was younger and had loved it ever since. Sure, it may have seemed out of her range and more like a Mercedes song, but Santana knew she had it in her.

The band started, as it always did. Before she knew it, her time to speak was now. In a full, sweet and soulful voice, she started.

At last, my love has come along

My lonely days are over

And life is like a song

All of the girls in the group, even Brittany had heard the song before, as they all started swaying their heads, while mouthing along. The guys on the other hand tried to act as if they'd never heard the song before, even though she was certain at least one of them had. She almost started to miss seeing Kurt sing along. Almost.

Oh yeah, at last

The skies above are blue

My heart was wrapped up in clovers

The night I looked at you

With that last word Santana lovingly pointed at Brittany, before throwing her an amorous glance.

I found a dream that I could speak to

A dream that I can call my own

I found a thrill to rest my cheek to

A thrill that I have never known

Oh, yeah, yeah

Santana was in front of Brittany, just as she had been only a few weeks before, but this time she went one step further and took the blonde girl's hand.

When you smile, you smile

Santana smiled at Brittany, before the favor was quickly returned.

Oh, and then the spell was cast

Still holding her girlfriend's hand, Santana spun her around gracefully and rhythmically.

And here we are in heaven

For you are mine

Santana brought Brittany in closely.

At last

After the last few words fell from her mouth and with Brittany still by her side, Santana thought to herself 'actions speak louder than words, right?'

Without even hesitating, she turned to her right and her lips met Brittany's.

If they hadn't already put the puzzle together, they sure had now.

A few gasped, one clapped, several were left speechless and Puck did as Puck always did, he whistled in amusement.

"You see this smoking hot, leggy blonde right here?" Santana asked the small audience, as she gently squeezed both of Brittany's biceps into her torso. "She's my girlfriend. Any objections will simply be ignored, as I suggest you all just friggen deal with it, or else my foot will be so far up your a-"

"Okay Santana, we've got it." Mr. Schuester quickly interrupted her.

Glee club was dismissed and they were now public. Sure, only the New Directions really knew at this point, but both Santana and Brittany made it clear that they weren't going to deny anything.

A/N: That is it... Finito! I know I had said at the end of the last chapter that I was going to write at least two more, but I didn't really want to drag it along too much, so I just kind of packed it into this last chapter. I really hope you all enjoy it, I know I had a great time writing all seven of these chapters, even if I had to stay up until an ungodly hour each night - or rather morning - because it seemed to be the only time I was actually capable of writing something decent.

So again, I hope you all enjoy and thanks again for all of your feedback, Abi.

Oh and since I've had such great feedback on this, I'm pretty sure I'll be writing some more stories in the future. Just in case you were wondering.

Thanks again!
