I'd like to thank hangover1111 for the idea for this story. It's going to be a two shot.
After the Wedding
Brittany sits in her room alone with her tongue between her teeth thinking hard. Since Will and Emma's almost wedding and seeing Santana again she realizes how much she misses the Latina. Honestly while Sam makes her laugh, he's starting to bug her. He's just too goofy and not serious at all. That's when it hits her. She wants Santana back. Without even thinking it through she gets up and heads downstairs.
"Mom I'm headed out. I probably won't be home for dinner." Brittany shouts grabbing her keys and wallet.
She's on auto pilot when she pulls up in front of the Lopez house. She's not even sure if Santana's even staying here since they hadn't said anything to each other at the wedding. But she's hoping that at the very least Gloria can tell her where Santana is staying.
"Brittany," Santana says having just been dropped off by Quinn.
"Hi Santana," Brittany softly says waving at her.
"What are you doing here?" Santana says a little harshly.
"I came to talk." Brittany says backing away a little at hearing the harshness in the Latina's voice.
"Shouldn't you go talk to Sam if you just want to talk. You are dating him." Santana harshly says.
"San," Brittany tries to say.
"No, I don't want to hear it. You picked him." Santana says brushing by her.
"Santana wait," Brittany says grabbing her arm. "I don't want to talk to Sam, I want to talk to you. You know that I care more for you than anyone."
Looking into those deep blue eyes, all the harshness melts away and Santana is left wide open and vulnerable like always with the blonde.
"I know you do Britt." Santana says much softer.
"I've been doing a lot of thinking." Brittany says letting Santana lead them to the porch to sit. "And as much as I like Sam as a friend, I don't have romantic feelings for him."
"Okay Britt then break up with him." Santana says trying to stay calm.
Just two days ago she was depressed and couldn't look at Brittany and Sam together and now it sounds like Brittany wants her back. The only question now is does she want Brittany back. After her night with Quinn she's not sure that this is what she wants, living in the past.
"I'm going to, but I'm hoping that we could give us another go." Brittany hopefully says.
"Honestly I'm not sure Britt. Maybe you were right when you pushed me away. Right now we're at different stages in our lives." Santana says thinking back to her talk with Quinn after their hook up.
It's not that she wants to be with Quinn at all. The girl may have been a decent lay, but she values her friendship more than any two week fling could. Plus Quinn is totally not into girls unless it's the hobbit which she still thinks Quinn has a thing for.
"No we're not, I'm actually graduating at the end of the semester and all I want to do is be wherever you are." Brittany says sniffling.
"Britt please don't cry." Santana says hugging her "former" best friend and ex.
She's not sure exactly where they stand anymore since it had been weeks since they last spoke.
"I'll come to New York, it's only a couple more weeks before I graduate and then we can be together." Brittany sobs at this point thinking Santana will say no.
"B, please look at me." Santana says waiting for her to look up. "You need to break up with Sam first, then we can figure us out okay." she softly says needing some time to think away from Brittany.
"Then we can get back together?" Brittany hopefully asks.
"No after that we can talk about getting back together. I need time to think and you need some time to be by yourself." Santana says surprising herself that she said no to Brittany.
"We'll get back together I'm sure." Brittany says kissing her cheek. "Even if I have to wait for you."
With that Brittany leaves Santana sitting on her porch wondering what the hell just happened. Only weeks ago she had been begging Brittany to leave Sam and now she's not sure if that's what she wants. After everything that happened over the last day she just needs to sleep before she can decide about her and Brittany.
Brittany drives herself to Sam's just wanting to rip the band aid off now. She hates hurting people she cares about, but she needs to do this no matter what. It's not fair to her or Sam to stay in this relationship when she's still madly in love with Santana. She sits in her car for several minutes trying to gain the courage to go knock on the door. She walks up the stairs and wipes her sweaty palms on her jeans before knocking. It seems like hours pass by before anyone answers the door.
"Hi Brittany dear, please come in." Julie Evans, Sam's mom sweetly says opening the door more to allow her to come in. "Sam's in his room."
"Thanks Mrs. Evans." Brittany says feeling bad that this woman is being so nice to her when she's going to break her son's heart.
Brittany heads down the hall and instead of opening the door, she knockes.
"Come in!" Sam shouts through the door.
"Hey Sam," Brittany says opening the door.
"Oh hey babe, I didn't know you were stopping by tonight." Sam says getting up to kiss her.
She turns her cheek so he catches her ear instead of her lips which is what he was aiming for.
"What's wrong?" Sam asks since she didn't kiss him back.
"We need to talk Sam." Brittany softly says.
"No we don't, we're fine." Sam tries to fastly says.
"Sam," Brittany sighs. "We both know that as long as Santana is here I'll always love her more. It's not fair to either of us to stay in this relationship." she tells him.
"Just wait until after Santana leaves and starts ignoring you again." Sam pleas.
"Sam, even if I don't get back together with Santana, I don't care for you that way." Brittany says deciding that not hurting his feelings even more wasn't working.
"But you want to get back together with Santana?" Sam says starting to get angry.
"Let's not go over this please." Brittany begs not wanting to upset him even more.
"No she's the fucking reason you're doing this. If it wasn't for her you wouldn't be doing this." Sam angrily shouts.
"Sam-"
"She fucked Quinn last night you know. Did she tell you that huh?" Sam sneers.
"You're lying," Brittany weakly says.
"I'm not, Tina saw them go into a room together." Sam smugly says. "Go ask her yourself."
Brittany doesn't know what to say back. She honestly doesn't know if she should believe him or not. Trying to hold back her tears, she runs from his room out to her car. It takes her a few minutes to compose herself enough to drive. Instead of heading home or to Santana's, she drives to McKinley. Everything right now is so confusing and hard, she wants to go back to her first senior year where her and Santana were together.
Getting out of the car, she slowly walks towards the football stadium. She doesn't want to believe what Sam told her. There's no way in hell Santana would ever sleep with Quinn. One Quinn is straight and two Santana would never sleep with one of their best friends. She doesn't want to believe what he said out of anger, but she has to be sure. Scouring both Santana and Quinn's facebooks turns up nothing more than they weren't happy at the wedding.
After coming up blank on all social media sites, she decides to go to what Sam said was the source. She texts Tina if this is true in person and see her eyes.
"Brittany," Tina says knocking on her car door window.
"Oh hey Tina, that was fast." Brittany says getting out of the car to give Tina a hug.
"I was just around the corner when you texted." Tina says. "What is it that you need to ask me only in person?" she asks.
"I just broke up with Sam and he told me something about Santana-"
"That she spent the night with Quinn, having sex." Tina finishes for her.
"So it's true?" Brittany all but sobs.
Tina wants to say no, at the look of sadness on her face, but doesn't want to lie to the blonde either.
"I'm so sorry Britt, I saw them enter the hotel room together and they were all over each other." Tina says, biting her lip unsure of what to do.
"Thanks for being honest with me Tina." Brittany sadly says giving her a hug.
Tina feels horrible when she feels a few tears hit her shoulder and seeing Brittany cry.
"Is there-"
"I'll see you around." Brittany says getting in her car and driving away.

Whitney doesn't know what to do. Since last night when Brittany went out probably to Sam's, has been sobbing in her bed. The last time her daughter was like this it was when Santana broke up with her. Because Santana is back in town for their glee teacher's wedding, she can't help but think it has something to do with the Latina being back too. Heading upstairs, she knocks softly on her daughter's door.
"Honey," Whitney says opening the door.
"Go away," Brittany sobs.
"I can't until I know what's wrong honey. You've been crying for all most a whole day." Whitney says.
"I broke up with Sam." Brittany sniffles hoping this will get her mom to leave.
She doesn't want to talk about the real reason. It hurts too much to think of the love of her life with someone else. And of anyone in the world it had to be with their best friend. Right now all she knows is that she wants to stay in bed, crying far away from Santana and Quinn. Just thinking about them makes her cry even more.
"Oh honey," Whitney says sitting down and rubbing her back. "Maybe you should call Santana she always makes you feel better."
"No!" Brittany quickly says.
Whitney doesn't say anything, but she figures that her daughter's crying has something to do with Santana now. Getting up and heading downstairs, she decides to call Gloria to see if she knows what is up.
'Whitney it's been too long.' Gloria says answering her phone.
'It certainly has we need to do lunch soon.' Whitney says before getting right down to it. 'I was wondering if you knew what happened between Brittany and Santana?' she asks.
'Not that I know of the night of the wedding she didn't come home until the following day. You don't think they-" Gloria says gasping at the thought.
'I don't know, all I know is that Brittany has been crying for hours and when I mentioned Santana coming over she yelled no. I'm just very worried.' Whitney tells her.
'Oh Whitney, I'll ask Santana about it and send her over if you want.' Gloria offers feeling bad that the blonde is sad.
'Would you please, I think they need to work whatever it is out.' Whitney says. 'I hope they get back together.'
'Me too, but as long as Brittany is here and Santana's in New York I don't see that happening.' Gloria sadly says.
'She's graduating in a few weeks and plans to head to New York.' Whitney tells her.
'That's wonderful, I'll call you later Santana just came down.' Gloria whispers.
Santana frowns when she sees her mom whispering into her phone before hanging up and smiling at her.
"What are you up to mami?" Santana questioning asks.
"I just got a call from Whitney." Gloria says. "Apparently Brittany is crying and she wanted you to try and cheer her up if you're willing to."
"Shit, Sam must have done something." Santana growls grabbing her purse and runs out the door.
Santana drives quickly to the Pierce's house and bangs on the door. Whenever she hears that Brittany is sad, she feels the need to comfort her. Seeing the blonde cry is like kicking a puppy.
"Santana," Whitney says surprising she's here so fast. "She's upstairs go see her."
"Thanks Mrs. Pierce," Santana says running up the stairs. "Brittany it's me." she says knocking on the door.
"Go away!"
