Santana slammed her locker shut and fell back against the cold metal. She looked at her best friend, staring into her blue eyes as she rambled on about something to do with sugar cubes.

"San, me and you are like sugar cubes you know…"

She stared at Brittany.

"Oh yeah?" she prompted as she shrugged off the lockers, linking her pinkie with Brittany's as they made their way to the choir room for Glee club.

"Well, yeah. Think about it, they make white ones like me and brown ones like you! Hey, do you think if we dipped ourselves in tea we'd make it sweeter?"

Santana just laughed as she opened the door for her crazy friend, shaking her head.

"Okay, next time I drink tea I am definitely not letting you stick your fingers in it…"

Kurt looked up from where he was fiddling with his brooch and smiled.

"I don't think I want to know the whole of that conversation."

She just shot the handsome boy a "whatever" look and proceeded to take her seat with Britt in the second row.

As usual, the moment Mr Schue walked in and tried to announce something, Rachel was there, spilling some diatribe about how this week's project was the best.

"Doesn't she say every week that a project is her favourite?" Brittany mused, absent minded caressing Santana's arm, leaving unknown goose bumps all over her best friend's body.

Santana gritted her teeth against the sensation, pushing her voice to remain steady.

"Something like that yeah."

"I wouldn't count on this being the same though." Kurt leant back on his chair looking up at the two as Rachel resumed her seat next to Finn.

"Why?" Mercedes asked as she leant forward behind Santana and Brittany.

Kurt smiled a knowing smile.

"We all know full well that Rachel's strength is musical theatre and Broadway, she's going to have a hard time finding a song that represents her feelings that isn't from the stage." He grinned to himself as Mercedes pouted in thought, leaning back in her chair.

"Okay, so just to recap!" Mr Schue stood up in front the whole club clapping his hands. "The project begins today, over the next five weeks we will be exploring emotion through song. The most important thing with this club is that we are all emotional and diverse beings! Our feelings may clash sometimes…okay a lot of the time, but we need to show it in a way that benefits Glee club."

Brittany and Santana sighed, they knew neither of them had listened first time round and that they were praying thanks to the heavens that Schue had a tendency to repeat himself.

"So at the start of each week, I give you the emotion, then you have to find a situation in which you felt that emotion, then find a song to fit it."

Suddenly a hand flew up.

"Rachel?" Schue breathed.

"Solo or duet, personally I believe if we were to explore emotions such as love, it would be easier for us to be in a duet, I pick Finn."

Finn just gulped and smiled back as Rachel who then turned to face Schue with a serious frown.

"Um, solo for now. Then, depending on how we go I could pair you up a little later, maybe I'll give you a special duet week at the end."

The bell went and the Glee club began to mutter to each other, some laughing others in serious conversation. Schue still managed to hold their attention by clapping his hands as they began to leave.

"Remember! Exploring yourself is fun!"

"Preach!" Artie chuckled, turning his wheel chair round in a circle to face Schue before he left. He winked.

Schue bit his lip, telling himself he had to work on the way he worded things in the future.


"So, this week we're focusing on happiness?" Santana asked as she, Brittany and Quinn jogged back from the field after Cheerio's practice.

Quinn shrugged.

"I guess so…what's up Britt?" She asked as the taller blonde pouted.

"Yeah, you've been quiet since Glee…" Santana added and Brittany bit her lip.

"Finding a song to show my happiness is hard, I don't even know what being happy feels like." She admitted as they entered the locker room. Quinn laughed and Santana shot her a look.

"Sure you do." The short blond laughed. "You're happy all the time Brittany!"

"I am?" Brittany asked as she leaned over her shoes to untie them. "Maybe, I don't know, but that doesn't help me find a song, I'm still not sure about feeling happy…"

Santana looked at Quinn who just shook her head. "I got nothing." She mouths and Santana chuckles, sitting down next to the taller blonde.

"Britt, remember in 4th grade I gave you that bracelet?"

Her eyes lit up at the mention of it and she nodded.

"The one with the duckies…"

Santana grins, feeling warm that she remembered.

"Yeah Britt, the one with the duckies, how did you feel when I gave it to you, do you remember?"

Quinn rolled her eyes at the situation and Santana just poked out her tongue as Brittany mumbled to herself.

"I felt like my chest was going to explode, you know like really big, and I couldn't take the smile off my face…"

"Britt, that's happiness." Quinn shook her head grinning as she zipped up her kit bag.

"It is?" Brittany asked and the two girls nodded.

"Then why do you two look so worried? This week's assignment is going to be easy!"

Quinn exchanged a look with Santana.

"I got to meet Sam, he wants me to go round his place tonight…"

"Oh yeah?" Santana grinned and Quinn smirked.

"Yeah."

She smiled and went to leave the locker room.

"Hey Quinn!" Santana laughed, standing and going to the door to find the blonde girl waiting. "Say, how's that celibacy thing going?"

"Fuck you Lopez." She replied grinning and Santana leaned out the door as she left.

"Now, now Quinnie! That's not the way the celibacy club president should be spending her time!"

Quinn just threw the finger up at her as she turned the corner and Santana laughed turning and walking back in the changing room, only to be suddenly thrown up against the wall.

"Britt…" she managed to gasp as she felt the cold on her back. Britt just laughed.

"I like it when we come back late"

"Why's that?" Santana asked as Britt kissed her pulse point.

"Cause then we can have hot shower sex, and it's even hotter when you know someone could walk in on you, even though practically everyone's left."

Santana pushed the blonde away and threw her up against the opposite wall.

"You are strange, but, you definitely, had me, at shower, sex…" She gasped between kissing Brittany's neck.

The blonde pushed her away so they were leaning against opposite walls, panting. She then, pulled off her Cheerio's top, let her skirt slide to the ground and sauntered off in her underwear, swaying her hips. She walked in the direction of the shower and Santana had to steady herself and her breathing before following with a huge smile on her face.
