Brittana: Love Conquers All

Chapter 6: Fallen Angel

Brittany's POV:

What did I do?

I just kissed Santana.

Shit.

It was amazing tho.

Dammit why did it have to be amazing!?

I decide to take a deep breath and just get some sleep.

~8am

I hear a knock on the door and open my eyes, but immediately close them when the harsh sunlight hits them and I groan.

"Sorry." It was that male nurse. "Did I wake you?"

"No." I lied. "What's up?"

"I have some news." I look up at him curiously.

"What?"

"We have a heart for you. UNOS called this morning. And it's being flown out as we speak. Your surgery is scheduled for 1pm." He smiles

"R-really?" He just nods. "Wait, why isn't Sa- I mean Dr. Lopez telling me?" I question

"I'm not sure. She paged and asked if I would." He shrugged

Was she avoiding me because of last night? Probably.

"Will she be doing the procedure?" I ask casually

He nods and excuses himself.

I sigh and try to go back to sleep. Thinking of one thing, and one thing only. Santana.

Santana's POV:

I've been avoiding Brittany all morning. I even sent Kurt to tell her the news. But I need to see her before the surgery. I need to.

It's 12:30 and they are prepping Brittany. I walk in and glare until they leave.

She looks at me and then looks down at her lap "I thought you were avoiding me?"

"I was" I say quietly and she looks up. "Look, Brittany, I'm not exactly sure what is going on here. I just thought I should see you before the surgery. Awake I mean." I smile awkwardly. She just giggles. Damn why does she have to be so cute..

"Santana, I know what I want. Or at least, what I think I want. I know it's complicated. But it's all up to you." She says confidently

"Britt-" I start

"Nope."She cuts me off. "We are not having this conversation until after my surgery. Now get out so I can get prepped." She says smiling

"Okay. I'll see you in there Britt." I walk up and hug her. I try to pull away but she just hugs me tighter.

"I'm scared Santana.." She whispers.

I pull back, look her in the eye and take her hand. "Hey. You should not be scared. I'll be in there the whole time and-"

She cuts me off. "Wait, you're not doing the surgery?" She asks panicked.

"No, this is a teaching hospital and our residents need to learn. But you'll be okay Britt."

"How can you be so sure?" She whispered, her voice cracking.

"Do you trust me?" I ask her

Without hesitation she answers "yes."

"Then trust me when I say that I promise you will be okay." I insist

She just nods and hugs me again.
