The hotel!

He closed the door behind him, making me think that he wasn't leaving soon. That was both good and bad.

I settled into one of the chairs near the girls' desk. "Got a pretty interesting text today, Garcia."

I facepalmed internally but kept my face confused. "Really? Awesome. What did it say?" I asked.

I pulled the phone out of my pocket and showed her the text, a smirk on my face. "So, I hear you want a piece of Puckzilla?"

I facepalmed for real that time. I tried to think of a lie or a joke that would cover up the fact that I actually did think Noah was kinda hot.

I smirked again, not watching Becca. I liked her too, I mean, she was hot, but this was different to me liking Santana. Way different.

I took a deep breath and decided to ignore Noah. I moved around the room tidying things that didn't need tidying.

I stood up while she half-ran around the room. When she passed me for a third time, I grabbed her wrist and spun her to face me. "Stop." I murmured, keeping my eyes locked on Becca's as I leaned in.

I closed the distance quickly, not really thinking anymore. But as I kissed him longer, I thought. Noah was McKinley's man-whore. I was just another in a long line of hookups.

When I pulled away from him, I felt myself get noticeably more upset. Santana, Brittany, Santana again, the whole cheerleading team, Santana again. I released myself from his hold and ran out of the room. I grabbed the key Quinn had stolen and into Sam and Finn's.

"Bec-" I started but she was gone. I sat back in the chair and ran my hand along my mohawk. I got up again, rubbing the back of my neck. I picked up one of Becca's room keys from the desk and left the room. I had no idea where she'd gone. I couldn't see her anywhere. So I hid the key in a crevice in the wall.

My phone chimed. I stayed curled up on the floor between the boys' beds. It chimed again. And then rung. Chime, ring, chime, ring.... I sighed and looked at it 3 new messages and about a thousand missed calls. All from Rachel.

I wiped away the tears I hadn't noticed had fallen and got up, slowly walking out of the room. The door was closed but there was a note on it, telling me where the key was.

'Didn't know where you'd gone. Key is over there'

there was an arrow.

'Sorry.

Pu Noah'


I couldn't stop the smile that spread across my face. I picked up the key and opened the door. I plucked the note off the door and folded it. I stuffed it into my back pocket and grabbed my purse, heading out the door again, with the key.

I went down to the ground floor and wandered into the lobby.
