Not Tonight

Part one, Chapter one- the beginning

Santana Lopez never talked about her job. It was a rule, not just at work, but also at home. She didn't want her little girls, or her wife to know how the world really is. She worked as an agent, it doesn't matter what kind of agent she was, because if Santana told you, she would have to kill you, but her job did entitle her to know certain things. She knew what exactly was going to happen to the city her and her family lived in. She knew that she had to get them out. She knew that they couldn't spend another night in New York, if they did it would be a night they wouldn't remember, and it wouldn't be because of good reasons.

Once Santana's boss gave her the okay to leave she didn't look back. She had known this day was coming, she just didn't think it would happen this soon. They had been predicting this would happen, they were looking for ways to stop it, to potentially save the world, but they couldn't, and it was starting to spread. Santana had been doing her research like she was instructed to. She had found that a few cases had been reported in New York, and were getting more and more common every day. The west side of the United States was already affected. No one knew where it started, what the origin was or how to stop it, but Santana does know there are un-human things that are running across the United States and she has to get her family out of there.

It didn't take Santana long to reach her small house that her and Brittany had bought together. The couple had been married for five years now, and couldn't be any happier. They had a small wedding on a beach in Hawaii, it was perfect, and their family was perfect. Just a couple months after their wedding Brittany gave birth to a set of identical twin girls, Marley and Melanie. That was honestly the happiest moment of Santana and Brittany's lives. However, a year after giving birth Santana and Brittany started noticing that Marley wasn't responding to the voices of her mothers. They really started to worry and took her to the nearest children's hospital. After test after test Marley was diagnosed with being deaf. It obviously did shock the two women, but they were honestly glad that it wasn't something life threatening. Brittany and Santana could learn sign language; they were still going to be able to communicate with her daughter, so they honestly were not that worried. Of course after learning Marley was deaf Brittany and Santana went out to classes, bought books, and studied everything they could about sign language. As they learned new things, they would teach Melanie, so she was still able to communicate with Marley as well. They were really one big happy family.

As soon as Santana opened the door to her house she was met by screeching and a small child wrapping her arms around her left leg. She smiled knowing this was how Melanie greeted her every day after she came home from work.

"Mama, lift me up!" Santana only chuckled as she lifted her five year old up from the ground. Her blonde locks swept just pass her shoulders. Santana already knew she was going to have hair just like Brittany.

"Hey Mel, don't you look beautiful today.'' Santana placed a kiss on her rosy cheek which made Melanie giggle. "But chica, can you do mama a little favour?'' Santana placed Melanie back on the ground and crouched so she was face to face with one of her little girls.

Melanie nodded, waiting for her mama to proceed with the question. Santana wanted to tell her daughter to pack up her important stuff in a span of fifteen minutes and be ready to leave her house for potentially forever. Of course she didn't want to sound scary and freak out her daughter so she instead made it sound like a game.

'' Baby, let's have a race. I want you to go upstairs and pack up all your clothes and important stuff, okay. But you have to do it really fast because mommy already started and has a head start.'' As soon as she heard the word race she saw the excitement in Melanie's eyes. Both of her daughters had a competitive edge, they definitely got that from Santana. '' Can you tell Marley to do the same thing for me chica; she's in the race too. Got it?'' Melanie shook her head and ran up to her room as soon as Santana motioned for her to go. She knew that leaving two five year olds with packing their own clothes and important items would probably come back to haunt them, but there was no time, they would have to worry about it when that time comes.

Santana ran up to her and Brittany's room to see Brittany typing away on their computer. She had Santana's glasses on, which to Santana is the sexiest thing on earth, and her hair was pulled up in a messy bun on the top of her head. The last thing Santana wanted to do was pack, but her family getting out alive was more important than her sex drive.

'' Jesus baby, you look sexy as hell right now, but we have to pack. We have to leave New York.'' Brittany's face went from a clever smirk to a worried glance. She watched as Santana moved around their spacious room in a panic. Throwing clothes in a bag she had found in their closet. Brittany knew Santana's job had something to do with the government, she didn't know what, but for Santana to come home and demand their family leave the state, she knew something had to be seriously wrong.

Brittany copied what Santana was doing, but instead of clothes she was throwing in toothbrushes, medicines, all the important niceties that she knew the rest of the family probably wouldn't remember to bring.

'' Did you tell the kids?'' Brittany asked as she placed the things she had gotten from the bathroom in the bag. She didn't bother to pack her own clothes, knowing Santana would do it for her while she got the other things.

'' Yeah, I told them it was a race so they should be done any minute now.'' Santana said as she looked over the bag to make sure they got everything within moderation then zipped it up. She gave her wife a worried look before placing a passionate kiss to her wife's lips.

'' I love you Brittany.'' Santana whispered into her Brittany's lips.

'' I love you too Santana, are we going to be alright hun?'' Brittany couldn't help but ask the question, she needed to know if this was going to be one of her last moments with the ones she loved.

Santana shook her head. She honestly didn't know. She hadn't seen the reports from today, she didn't know if it had gotten worse, and how bad it was. By her predictions, if they make it out now they should be alright.

'' I think so sweetie but-'' Santana was cut off by two sets of legs running in and crashing into her. Marley and Melanie had indeed packed their bags and managed to do so within fifteen minutes, Santana was impressed.

Santana bent down and picked up Marley who had a massive grin on her face. She signed the motion for hi, followed by a usual I love you and a hug from her. That was always a routine set of actions Marley did every time she saw her parents after a long period of time.

'' You ready kiddo?'' Santana spoke and also signed to Marley. The family usually spoke the words as well, they had read that it was better and helped Marley in some sort of way.

Marley nodded with a smile and placed a kiss on the tip of Santana's nose before squirming out of Santana's hold and running out the door along with her sister. Brittany and Santana gave each other one last kiss before heading out of their bedroom, down the steps and into the entry way of their house. All four of them put their sneakers on. Santana made sure they wore comfortable running shoes, just in case something did happen and put them in that kind of situation.

After everyone was done and ready to go out the front door Santana stopped them. She needed to speak before anyone left this house.

''So we are going on a trip, if you guys haven't already figured that out.'' Santana said aloud and also signed. '' I know it is very last minute but it was a surprise to mama and mommy as well. But before we go, there are a few rules I need everyone to follow. I need everyone to stay together, do not wonder off where ever we go that rule is very important.'' Santana watched as Marley and Melanie nodded. '' I also need you two to listen to me, and do as I say. This is a different type of trip then we usually go on, those rules are very important to follow, okay.'' Santana ended her conversation looking at Marley and Melanie. It was crucial that they knew what she had just said was important.

'' Okay mama.'' Marley signed with a smile.

'' We'll be good, promise.'' Melanie nodded with a smile as well.

'' I love you three.'' Santana said as she kissed the blonde heads of her children, then her wife as well.

'' We love you too mama!'' Melanie replied as she watched her mother open the door and begin what was going to be a very unusual trip.

A/N: Thoughts? Should I continue?

I obviously do not own glee or any of the characters.
