Songs, quotes and download

01. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face - Leona Lewis
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
And felt your heart beat close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command.
"She tilts her mouth and lets Santana come to her. They close their eyes. Santana's lips press soft and cool against her lips, and that deep fluttery feeling blooms in her belly. She asks Santana if she felt something too.
She did."
- Pas de Deux, Chapter 1: Ouverture.
-*-
02. I Don’t Need Your Love - Aereogramme
Honestly, we shouldn’t be here
We should be dancing, we should be friends
Celebrate our victory all over
Maybe time will tell, only time will tell
"In the middle of the night she turns to you, the way she does sometimes, and you kiss. You kiss differently now; you've both practiced on less perfect mouths, but you've also, despite yourselves, grown used to each other.
And then it happens - she slips her tongue into your mouth, and the tip of hers touches yours, and god you feel so alive you don't care that this is not the way friends should kiss, ever, not even really good friends - especially not really good friends - and especially not two girls."
- The Only True Paradises, Chapter 3: The Tree of Good and Evil.

03. Cannonball - Damien Rice
There’s still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
There’s still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
It’s still a little hard to say what's going on
There’s still a little bit of your ghost your witness
There’s still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can´t say what´s going on
"Finally, after Coach Sylvester makes them carry that huge trophy into the choir room, Santana brings Brittany straight home with her, tosses her on the bed, jumps on top of her and kisses her silly.
They watch movies and eat popcorn kernels one by one from each other's fingers. They kiss and kiss and kiss until they're sticky and salty and drunk with wanting each other, and the whole time, Santana can't stop smiling."
- Pas de Deux, Chapter 7: Swing.

04. Here by Me - 3 Doors Down
So how could I have been so blind for all these years?
I guess I only see the truth through all this fear of living without you
And everything I have in this world
And all that I'll ever be
It could all fall down around me
Just as long as I have you right here by me
"That night, you lie back on your bed alone and think. You think about Brittany. About the summer feeling. About the way you feel when her fingers are inside you. When you touch her. About the way your chest tightens when you catch her eye and the way you look away so it won't happen again (…)
You're in love with Brittany."
- The Only True Paradises, Chapter 10: Landslide.

05. Both Sides Are Even - The Boxer Rebellion
You don't need a reason
For I know that, what I've done is wrong
No one there to argue
About the way that our moment's gone
It's the same, right or wrong
And both sides are even, they’re even and alone
"You want to go back in time and tell her yes, I will sing Come To My Window with you for our duets assignment. You want to tell her, of course what we do is different from anything we've done with other boys and other girls (…)
Then you think of Artie, and you want to pummel her, to tear her hair out by the roots, to bite her, to cry out at her and burn all of those cards she's made you over the years that you keep in a box in your closet."
- The Only True Paradises, Chapter 12: Better to Reign in Hell.

06. The Last Flower - Mads Langer
She’s a wild flower, she’s a deep sea
The tide will always bring her back to me
This is the way she loses her mind, running away living everything behind
Baby I know, wherever you go I’ll always be with you
I’ll always be with you
"Every time she sees Santana now, Brittany feels like a fishhook just pierced her chest and tugged her heart against her ribs. But San won't even look at her. She's Brittany's little brown bird again: every time she gets just a little too close, she spots her and vanishes (…)
Even though it's only been a few days, it feels like forever before she finally gets to talk to Santana."
- Pas de Deux, Chapter 12: En Pointe.
-*-
07. Broken - Lifehouse
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holding on, I'm barely holding on to you
"When she takes you home to her apartment, you suddenly remember you're barely seventeen and the only girl you've ever slept with is Brittany (…) You can't help it - you close your eyes and imagine it's Britt's mouth unraveling you like this, like it's her soft hair brushing the insides of your thighs, her nails digging into the flesh just above your knees."
- The Only True Paradises, Chapter 13: Babylon.
-*-
08. If It Means a Lot to You - A Day to Remember
Hey sweetie, I need you here tonight,
And I know that you don't wanna be leaving me
Yeah, you want it but I, I can't help it
I just feel complete when you're by my side.
"The dirty hall of the motel is gone behind her closed eyelids. She can only see that image of Santana on the floor, guarding herself with pillows from some danger Brittany can never quite imagine.
"I miss you," she says, finally. She can't even hear San's breath now.
"Miss you too.""
- Pas de Deux, Chapter 14: Échappé.
-*-
09. Wonderwall - Oasis
Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
And after all, you're my wonderwall
""It's okay, San," Brittany whispers. She swallows, trying not to ask what everything in her is dying to ask. It would be wrong. Brittany knows that. It's not fair to Santana. But she wants it so badly. She feels her own heart speeding up to match Santana's, spreading into the pit of her throat and between her thighs. In the end, she can't stop herself."
- Pas de Deux, Chapter 16: First Position.
-*-
10. Smile - James Marsters
And I get blinded when she opens the door
It's like looking into the sun, you know
And I'm just blinking, mumbling and staring at my shoes
And she just looks at me
And smiles
"You rush downstairs. The night is cool; you pull a throw blanket from the couch and drape it over your shoulders. Then you leave your door open, staining the porch with light, and you go to her.
Britt smiles."
- The Only True Paradises, Chapter 18: Holy Palmer’s kiss.

11. Better Together - Jack Johnson
Mmm, it’s so much better when we're together
Yeh, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well it's always better when we're together
Yeh, it's always better when we're together
""Well, that one" - she points with the hand not wrapped in San's - "that bright star, there? That's the dog star. Sirius. And over there" - she traces a line of three stars - "that's Orion's belt. Orion's a hunter. That one's my favorite. Easy to see, anywhere."
"Well, then, it's my favorite too," says San, squeezing her hand.
"Why?"
"Because every time I see it from now on, I'll think of you.""
- Pas de Deux, Chapter 19: Grand Pas.
-*-
12. I Miss You - Incubus.
To see you when I wake up
Is a gift I didn't think could be real.
To know that you feel the same as I do
It's a three-fold, Utopian dream.
You do something to me that I can't explain
"Stilling your breath, you listen to hers. Its rhythm interweaves with her heartbeat. You stay like that, stroking a rib delicately with your thumb, for a little too long-you can't stop watching her.
Sure, this whole feelings thing may hurt like a bitch-but letting yourself get mushy over watching Brittany sleep is one of the perks of admitting you're head over heels in love."
- The Only True Paradises, Chapter 19: Donde La Sed Eterna Sigue.
