Spoilers: First season.
Summary: A cheerleading practice goes wrong when Santana opens her mouth.
It starts with Santana mocking her at cheer practice. It's silly, really, just a stupid quip about Mercedes being Quinn's girlfriend and Quinn being totally whipped by her. Quinn just rolls her eyes, flashes Santana a smirk and throws her own little jibe about Brittany being Santana’s girlfriend, and basically, everyone else’s for that matter.
It ends with both girls at the Principal’s office, wearing grass stained uniforms and messy hair.
Coach Sylvester and Figgins have a shouting match at the Cheerios in question and after what feels like hours, they’re released. Both Brittany and Mercedes are waiting for them.
The irony doesn't escape either of them.
Santana goes first, grabbing Brittany’s hand and storming out as quickly as she could without having to run. Quinn simply shakes her head in amusement, until Mercedes is right in front of her, telling her what a mess she is and combing astray blonde hairs back to its place.
It makes Quinn shiver.
A few minutes later, when they're walking in the parking lot towards Quinn's shiny red car, Quinn catches sight of Santana's own ride. She doesn’t mean to see the cheerleaders inside, Brittany's lips and hands all over Santana.
She definitely doesn't want that feeling of jealousy burning in her chest.
Because Mercedes being her girlfriend in the way that Santana means? Quinn only wishes.
