So remember at the end of Flowers In The Window when I said I'd be continuing in a series of oneshots and stuff? Well, this is the first one...except I decided to put all of the oneshots in one story. If you didn't read Flowers In The Window, go to that story and read the last chapter. That should fill you in on who everyone is and how they all ended up to help you better understand this story and the rest to come. Happy reading. :)


June 2035

The day Lily brought Ezra home to Santana and Brittany, Santana never saw it lasting more than a month (if she had it her way, at least). But here they all were, seven years later, and she's helping her oldest daughter get ready on her wedding day.

"Mom, what if they're late?" Lily asked nervously.

"They'll be here any minute, L." Santana assures her. She makes a mental note to brutally maim Kurt and Mercedes if they're not here within the next ten minutes.

"I've got a fabulous dress for the soon-to-be Mrs. Lily Daniels!" came Kurt's high sing-song voice.

"So nice of you to join us, Porcelain." Santana said sweetly, "and where's Wheezy?"

Kurt smirked. "You can't rush perfection, Satan, and this dress is perfect for Lily. Mercedes is with Blaine and Puck making sure Ezra doesn't flee...or make our tux look bad."

Brittany spoke up, "Shouldn't Mercedes have been in here with the girls and you in there with the guys?"

Kurt scoffed. "I'm an honorary girl. I'm also slightly offended. Do you not want me here?" he joked.

"Of course we want you here, uncle Kurt." Lily told him.

Kurt looked around. "Where's Charlie?"

"She's with Penelope and Dylan."

"If I didn't know better, I'd say there was something going on between Charlie and one of Puck and Quinn's girls." Kurt stated.

"Please. No there isn't. Those three girls are best friends."

Kurt looked unconvinced. "Hm. If you say so, Santana."


Charlie, Penelope, and Dylan were dancing together at the reception. When the song ended Dylan stepped back from the girls. "I'm gonna go talk to Lily about if Ezra's brother is single or not."

"My god, Dylan, do you think about anything other than boys? Besides, isn't he too old for you?" Charlie said.

"Pffft coming from the lesbo?" Charlie rolled her eyes, "he's only three years older!" Dylan said before trouncing off.

Penelope frowns and follows Dylan with her eyes.

Charlie tilts her head. "Hey, you okay?" Penelope nods. "That's so convincing." Charlie says sarcastically and grabs Penelope's hand. "Come on, let's go talk." she leads her through the crowd and past a pavilion.

"Where are we going?" Penelope asks.

Charlie turns and smiles, still holding her hand. "On an adventure." she pulls the taller blond down onto the beach that was behind the hotel the wedding was being held. "So what's wrong, Nel?"

Penelope sighs. "I think I'm...different. From Dylan."

Charlie brings her eyebrows together and smiles. "Yeah? So? Just because you're twins doesn't mean you're going to be the exact same in every way."

Penelope looks down and when she looks back up there are tears running down her face.

Charlie pulls her into a hug and then holds her at arm's length to look at her face. "Nel, tell me what's wrong. Come on, you're my best friend." she wipes the tears from Penelope's face.

"She's so boy crazy and...I think I'm different. I think—I think I might want..." she trailed off.

"What? What do you want?"

"To do this." Penelope grabbed Charlie's face and kissed her.

Before she knew what she was doing, Charlie was kissing her back.

Penelope pulled away and put a hand to her lips, looking terrified. "Oh my god. Please don't tell anyone." she pleaded before she ran off in the direction of the hotel, leaving Charlie alone on the beach.


All the former members of the New Directions were sitting together at a table.

"It's been twenty-four years since Lily was born. And now we're all old and at her wedding reception." Brittany says as she watches Lily and Ezra.

"Speak for yourself. Old is a state of mind and I am certainly not old." Quinn replies.

"We all have kids." Finn said.

"Incorrect. Sam, Mercedes, and I are lacking in that area." Rachel says. "Really, Finn, we may not all live in the same state, but we keep in regular contact. You should know these things."

"Sorry, I was thinking about Molly again."

Mercedes slammed her hand on the table. "Oh, that bitch. I can't believe she tried to stab you."

"Maybe she got tired of Finnessa's man boobs." Santana winked at Finn.

"Nice. Real nice, Santana. I'm just glad you haven't brainwashed all of our kids into talking and thinking that way about us. So thanks for that, I guess." Finn said.

"Yeah, who ever thought that Santana would hold her tongue for anyone else but Brittany's benefit?" Blaine mused.

"Oh, bullshit. It's just because Brittany's got her whipped. Don't you guys remember back when Britts was pregnant and she made Santana stop making fun of Finn?" Puck said as he took a drink and Santana flipped him off.

"Shut it, Fuckerman!" She folded her arms over her chest. "Whatever. I got you. I got all of you."

Brittany looked at Santana and patted her knee.


Ezra finished talking to his dad and spotted Lily across the room. He smiled and walked over to her. God, she looked beautiful. "Hello, Mrs. Daniels."

Lily beamed and kissed him. "Hey, Mr. Daniels."

They started swaying to the song that was playing.

Brittany and Santana appeared next to them. "Mind if we cut in?"

"Not at all." Ezra said as he took Santana's hand and began dancing with her.

"You know, you're not so bad after all, kid." she said as she looked up at him.

"Thanks, mom." he said with a chuckle.

"Oh god. It's gonna take some getting used to that. A third person calling me mom! I thought I was done adding kids!"

"I'm really glad I changed." Ezra said seriously.

"You and me, both."

"I know you didn't like me at first. I probably wouldn't have either, if I was in your shoes. I know I wouldn't have. I would have punched me in the face after what I did to your family."

Santana laughs. "Oh trust me, I thought about it way more times than I'd like to admit. But all is forgiven, Ezra. You're a part of our crazy family now. Sorry."

Ezra stopped dancing and hugged the woman. "I wouldn't have it any other way. Even if Puck did threaten to find me and use his nunchucks on me if I ever did anything to hurt Lily."


"Do you know what song this is?" Brittany asked Lily.

"Uh...yeah. It's one of Ed Sheeran's old songs, right?"

Brittany nodded. "Mhm. When I was pregnant with you I couldn't go to prom, your mom made a prom for me in our living room. We slow danced to this song."

Lily grinned fondly. "You guys were sickeningly sweet. I hope Ezra and I will always be like that."

"We weren't always. We haven't always been. But you knew that."

Lily hung her head. "I'm so sorry, momma. I never should have done that to you and mom. I was so selfish."

"Shhh. It's alright, Lily Marie. We have always loved you, and we always will. We just don't always like you." she said with a wink.


Santana handed Charlie her glass of rum and coke. "You can have a few sips, but that's it." she looked over her shoulder at Brittany, "Just don't tell your momma."

"Why only a few sips?"

"Because you're fourteen and I said so, babe. Now hurry up before she comes over here."

Charlie brought the glass to her lips and started chugging.

"Hey now! I'm not trying to get my teenage daughter drunk." Santana said as she took her cup back.

Charlie smirked at her and went to go find Lily.

Brittany sauntered over to Santana and put her arms around her neck as she kissed her. "We raised good kids."

Santana glanced at Charlie and Lily laughing together. "Yeah we did. They're absolutely beautiful."
