Title: Thin Lines

Chapter One - Drunk Rachel

"And the nominee goes to, Rachel Berry!" the audience clapped excitedly as Oprah gave Rachel a congratulated smile and handed her the award. The over excited Rachel Berry had tears rolling down in her cheeks in happiness "Thank you all so much for this Tony, I love you guys!" the audience shouted back 'We love you too!'

Wake up time. 6.30am. Beep. Beep.

"Ugh" Rachel groaned moving around in bed as her alarm went off. She lazily forced one eye open and swatted at the alarm until she found the snooze button and hit snooze. Suddenly "Aahhhh!" she screamed into her pillow.

"Oh for gods sakes, what the hell are you screaming at?" a voice growled and Rachel jumped up so fast her head couldn't keep up and she dropped to the floor, lost in dizziness. Suddenly someone was on her bed above her "Are you frickin' crazy midget, you know what time it is?"

"Santana? What are you doing in my room?" Rachel questioned.

"Do you not remember what happened last night?" Santana raised an eyebrow.

"No" Rachel said confused and slowly. Santana sighed as she sat back and told her the whole story.


Two weeks ago...

Santana walked into the apartment with a big smile on her face, ready to brag to her new roommate about her new job she got. She walked in though and saw her three day roommate packing up her suitcase and she looked up and saw Santana there and her eyes went wide as she realised she had been caught red handed.

"Elaine? What are you doing?" Santana questioned.

Elaine swallowed "I can't do this anymore, S" she picked up the suitcase and looked sadly at her "It was fun moving here, but my family thinks I'm still in college and I don't want to disappoint them"

"But you've already dropped out" Santana said.

"I did, but they said if ever I changed my mind, I could come back there" Elaine dropped the suitcase on the floor and started to wheel it out "I also, can't pretend to be your girlfriend anymore, it's tiring and the things you gave me I have now, so it's over" she said.

Santana watched in shock as she watched Elaine walk out of the door of their small apartment they literally had for three days only "What?" she questioned dumbfounded "Wait Eliane! Wait! Maybe we can talk this out..."


Santana spent the whole night alone. She knew this would happen, she knew Elaine would eventually move out and back to college where she had always wanted to be. Not in a city with her fake girlfriend. But Santana was so lonely and she didn't feel like having no friends around her all the time. Sighing, she picked up the phone and did the only thing she could do "Hey Kurt"


Kurt had agreed to let Santana move in with them and Santana didn't want to admit it but she was so relived. She wondered why she had never thought of this before and then remembered. Because of that Rachel Berry. Who is most likely going to rub it in her face about how much she achieved since high school. Seriously, the girl could say really stupid things sometimes.

"Rachel will be back soon" Kurt stated "I'll go make dinner" he decided.

Santana nodded and looked around the apartment, to be honest, it seemed very normal. Much too normal for Rachel Berry and Kurt Hummel. They were like an old broadway couple and Santana shivered thinking about how she would fit into it. She unpacked all of her stuff and then sat down on the sofa, waiting for the next roommate to come.

When Santana heard Rachel's voice singing from outside. She got up and ran over to the door and waited outside of it until Rachel opened it up with her keys and walked in. Rachel didn't look up first, but when she did she screamed "Oh my god Santana!" and Santana was suddenly hit with a small warm body and strong arms around her.


The first week went fine. Apart from all the times Santana had to put Rachel in place when she said something annoying like "Santana, did you know I'm auditioning for the lead role for Funny Girl?"

"Santana, did you know that the bus fare is twice as cheaper here in New York?"

"Santana, you should get a job"

"Santana, did you know that just ten miles from here is where we performed for Nationals all them years ago?"

"Santana, did you know that Finn was the one who kissed me?"

"Santana, you should get a job"

"SHUT UP BERRY!"


It wasn't until Kurt came home with some very special news that it all hit "Oh my god guys! Blaine proposed to me!" he yelled excitedly.

"WHAT!" Both Rachel and Santana shouted at the same time.

"He proposed!" Kurt giggled "And asked me to buy an apartment with him"

Rachel and Santana both smiled and ran up to him and crushed him with a big hug. He looked so happy, that they didn't want to ruin it by asking what it meant for them. Because Kurt was the only thing keeping them from killing each other. Rachel and Santana alone, equaled no Rachel in the end.


Kurt moved in with Blaine shortly and Santana was happy she got to have his bedroom. She was coming home one night and was pleasantly surprised when she wasn't greeted with an overacting Rachel about something. But then she saw a empty bottle abandoned on the floor and Santana picked it up and examined it closely. Before she ran to Rachel who was knocked out on the sofa as fast as she could.

"Berry" Santana shook her "Berry!" she called shaking her harder. Rachel was abruptly awake and her eyes widened as she stared at the girl in front of her "Who are you!" she yelled.

"Rachel it's me, Santana" Santana said softly.

"No, I'm not Santana!" Rachel shouted.

"I know Rach, I'm Santana!" Santana told her.

"What have you done with Santana!" Rachel screamed as she jumped onto Santana causing her to fall on her back "What the hell!" Santana said when Rachel tried to pin her wrists to the floor "Stop being stupid Rachel, I am Santana"

Rachel didn't listen, or just ignored. Before she picked up another bottle from the table, Santana was sure a couple of bottles couldn't do that to her, she must have accidentally had something else or too much. Rachel was practically straddling Santana and Santana had no choice but to flip them around if she was going to stop her.

Rachel hit the floor with a thud as she was suddenly flipped on her back with Santana fully straddling her. Rachel looked up and slurred "Who are you?"

"Rachel look at me! I'm Santana!" Santana growled.

Rachel opened and closed her eyes a few times before her vision became clear "Oh yeah" she giggled "Hey San!"

"What the hell are you doing?" Santana demanded throwing the bottle in Rachel's hand behind her.

"I uh.." tears found themselves in Rachel's eyes "I didn't get the role of Fanny"

Santana barely contained a chuckle "That is what this is all about?"

"Shut up Santana, you wouldn't have even got a callback!" Rachel snapped.

Santana stopped laughing "What did you just say?" she hissed lowly. But she had to take in consideration that Rachel was drunk so she had no idea of what she was saying.

"Come on dwarf, let's get you to bed" Santana decided climbing off Rachel.

"I wanna stay here" Rachel pouted folded her arms.

"Rachel" Santana warned.

"No" Rachel shook her head.

"Fine' Santana leaned down and grabbed one of Rachel's legs and then started dragging the girl into the bedroom with Rachel kicking her legs and crying. Santana managed to do it after finally getting Rachel through the door and then leaned down to pick her up and throw her onto her bed.

"You are not a pleasant drunk"

Rachel had already dozed of to sleep and Santana thought about going to give Rachel some medicine, she still didn't understand why she was doing this for her. She should have just left Rachel knocked out on the couch, but she didn't hate her that much.


Present

Rachel looked up from the floor embarrassed "Did that really happen?" she asked.

"Yes" Santana replied irritated as she fell back onto her cushion.

"But how did you get in my bed?" Rachel asked stumbling to get up "No wonder my head hurts" she muttered.

Santana turned to face her "Because I fell asleep here"

"Oh" Rachel climbed back onto the bed.

"What are you doing?" Santana asked.

"Going back to sleep" Rachel answered honestly.

"Uh no" Santana pushed Rachel back off the bed "You have class today and you are not missing it just because you didn't get one part in your precious Funny Girl" Rachel opened her mouth to protest "San" she whined.

"Nope. Have a shower, get dressed, brush you teeth and do it. I'll pick you up from class later" Santana turned back around in her blanket and Rachel surprised herself grumbling and following Santana's orders.
