Chapter 1

"Thanks and welcome to TroubleTones Records." Shelby says and stands up to give Jesse St. James a handshake. Mercedes and Santana stand up to give him a handshake as well.

"Thank you for giving me a shot. I know I have a great voice and I can't wait to sell some records." Jesse says with a smirk that is way too confident for the women's likings.

"We will meet up some time next week to go over a schedule and planning." Shelby states and after a few more words the guy finally leaves the room.

"Thank freaking God!" Santana exclaims as she lets out a big sigh, "I thought he would never shut up."

"Lord do I know… He really needs a change of 'tude cuz…" Mercedes trails off while shaking her head. The other two just nod their heads in agreement. Jesse is the newest singer signed to their label and he is way too stuck-up and overconfident for his own good.

"After he has been in the Bizz he will find out how hard it is to bring out a single and it actually getting some airplay let alone becoming a hit. But I agree with you girls, he needs to change his attitude and maybe work on not using so much hairspray either…"Shelby trails off while scrunching up her face.

The other two just laugh at the look on her face and can't help but agree once again. The trio gather their papers and walk towards their shared office. Santana immediately sits down at her desk, though Shelby does most of the paperwork, she still has her own load to do and she can't put it off much longer.

"Hey Cedes, can you tell the girls I will be a little later? I have to do some paperwork and I also have to meet with Lance about the audio problem in Studio 3." San says as she looks through the many files on her desk, in search for the one she needs. She really should try to organize her desk better…

"Of course, don't be too late tho… You were late the last time as well, and the time before that… Actually, have you ever been on time?" Mercedes wonders out loud.

"Har har… Funny. And yes I have been on time. Most of the time Brittz and I are on time so don't start to whine now. Also I had legit reasons to be late the last 2 times so just shut yo mouth." Santana says getting a little frustrated from having to stay longer in the first place, not needing a rant to keep her from her work.

"Okay, okay. No need to get snappy." Mercedes says while holding her hands up in surrender before continuing, "I will get out of your hair and I will let the girls know."

"Thank you and sorry for snapping." San says and Mercedes eyes widen, as well as Shelby's, "What?"

"Are you okay, honey?" Shelby asks and steps closer to the Latina woman and moves her hand to the her forehead to check for a fever, "You're not sick right?"

Santana slaps the hand away and shakes her head, looking up at the two in confusion, "What are you on about?"

"I can't believe it… Can you Shelbs?" Mercedes asks as she looks at Shelby.

"She must be getting sick… I'm in shock she said the S-word…"

"What in the hell are you two talking about? What S-word?" Santana asks with more confusion as she looks between the two.

"The Sorry word… I didn't know you could say that to anyone else but Britt… You really must be coming down with something." Mercedes says and Santana's confused face slowly turns into a glare as the other two start to chuckle.

"I hate you guys." She mumbles out.

"Ahh, there's the Santana we know." Shelby teasingly states.

"You two suck. And I do say sorry… sometimes." Santana mumbles once again and starts to read through her papers though she isn't really absorbing what she's exactly reading.

"We will let you get back to your paperwork, I will see you later at your place and I will see you tomorrow at Jake's session, right?" Mercedes asks Shelby who nods her head in confirmation.

Mercedes grabs her bag and jacket before saying a quick goodbye and leaving their office. Shelby grabs her laptop and some USB's before telling San that she is going to Studio 4 to work on some songs. San simply mumbles an 'okay' while she continues to read through her paperwork.

Almost 3hrs later

Santana had come out of Studio 3 after talking to Lance, their tech guy, about the issues in that room about an hour ago and she was not liking what he had to tell her. Apparently two speakers aren't working and some wiring in the studio is not working correctly either. Lance told her it would take about a week, maybe 2, to fix everything in it so they couldn't use that studio anymore.

That causes some troubles for their scheduling. So after she got back to her desk, and finished her overdue paperwork, she now had the great pleasure to go over their complete schedule and rearrange some things… It wasn't going as easy as she hoped it would be.

"Ugh. I give up!" She exclaims with frustration while throwing her pen on her desk. She puts her head in her hands and groans loudly. A sudden buzzing sound pulls her from the situation.

She sees her phone light up, notifying her of a text, so she grabs it and her eyes widen when she sees the time. She curses softly to herself before opening the text.

Britt: Hey babe, when are u coming? Miss u :( xxx

San: Sorry baby. Didn't realize the time. Be home soon. Missed you lots too xxx

Santana stands up and puts the paperwork she completed in the correct maps and files before putting them away in their filing cabinet. She turns her laptop off and collects all her USB's and the things she wants to take home with her in her bag.

She grabs her jacket and looks at Shelby's desk. She scrunches her face up in thought; she was so occupied with all her papers that she didn't even notice Shelby leaving. She shakes her head at herself and curses at herself yet again. She should really start to do her paperwork sooner.

She turns off all the lights in the building and checks if all the doors are locked before going to the elevator and to the ground floor. She locks the door and walks to the parking lot, just as she sits down in her car she gets a text.

Britt: Forgotten paperwork again? :P xxx

Santana chuckles at the text, of course Brittany knows exactly what was keeping her there so long. She should probably start to listen to her as well whenever her wife talks to her about her always putting things off till the last minute.

San: Maybe… I will make it up to you all by getting us pizza's, ok with that? Xxx

Santana waits the few minutes it takes for Brittany to text her back in her car with the radio softly playing in the background. She can't help but to softly hum along to Ed Sheeran's Thinking Out Loud, she really loves that song, just like his other songs.

Britt: U got a deal. Get an extra peperoni please :D xxx

San: More Nipple Pizza :P xxx

Britt: ( . Y . ) :P xxx

Santana chuckles at the text and shakes her head. I'm married to a dork, a hot dork… They often text jokingly and mostly teasingly with each other so she can't help but text something back before starting the car and making her way over to Franco's; a small Italian restaurant that's known for their delicious pizza's and spaghetti.

San: Is that your offer for me to eat your peperoni's all night ;) xxx

After getting and paying for their regular order, plus an extra Peperoni, she gets back in the car and looks at the latest text she had gotten while she was inside. Something in her stomach starts to stir after reading the text and she wishes she didn't have to deal with the other girls at their place right now…

Britt: Mmm I am now ;) xxx

Her phone buzzes again after a few minutes and she realizes she is enjoying the thousand images of her wife's amazing twins a little too much so she shakes her head to clear her thoughts again. She looks down at her phone and chuckles at the text.

Britt: U didn't drive into a ditch while thinking about my boobs right… Was nice to have known u, my boobs and I will miss ur very skillful tongue :P xxx

San: I'm still alive, just like my tongue. I will show you exactly how skillful it is later tonight ;) xxx

She puts her phone back in her bag and starts to drive towards their house. She still gets a dreamy look on her face when she thinks about going home to their house. Of course coming home to Britt has always been the best feeling in the world, but owning their own house is a big deal for both of them.

They had wanted to get a house a few years ago but money was tight, both their businesses weren't doing well yet cuz they were still fairly new. But after they got more offers and gained more popularity, money just seemed to stream in and they could finally buy their dream house, which San is very proud of.

She drives up the long driveway and parks her car in between Britt's and Quinn's. She gets out and grabs all the bags before walking up to the front door, turning around to lock her car, which she may have forgotten to do a few times in the past… Britt was not amused or impressed with that.

She opens the door and a smile immediately finds its way on her face, she loves the smell of their house. Mostly cuz it smells like Britt, but she is never gonna tell anyone but Britt that cuz her friends would have a fieldtrip with the jokes they can make and yea, she is not having that.

"Honey, I'm home! I love saying that." She says the last part a little softer while walking down the 3 little steps leading into the living room and greeting her friends.

"I know babe, you do it almost every day." Brittany states while playfully rolling her eyes at her wife.

"Shush you, you love it." Santana replies while placing the bags containing the food on the coffee table.

"Hmmm, that I do. But I love you more." Britt cheekily replies and stands up to greet San with a sweet kiss. Santana leans into her hold and pecks her lips three times before pecking her nose and walking back towards the hall to put her jacket on the coat rack.

"Can someone open the window? I think these lovebirds need to get some air." Quinn jokes while the girls all laugh and Santana simply rolls her eyes at her best friend, who is more like an annoying sister.

"You're just jelly cuz Brittz and I have the greatest love that ever existed on this pathetic planet we call earth." Santana states while wrapping her arms around Brittany who is still standing next to the couch, watching her wife with a loving smile.

"Yeah right. Dream on, San." Quinn just states before opening one of the bags and grabbing the pizza boxes. She opens them and puts the other dishes on the tables as well with Mercedes' help.

Brittany and Santana both walk into the kitchen to grab a few plates, some cutlery and a big glass of white wine for Santana. They walk back into the living room and sit down on their big couch, they immediately snuggle into each other after putting their things on the table.

"So how was work? Finally finished that paperwork?" Mercedes asks with a small smirk which makes Santana roll her eyes yet again.

"I did, thank you very much. I was actually finished pretty early but then Lance had to give me the best news ever." She sighs out while taking a big bite out of her pizza.

"What news did he give? Also, when can I record something at your studio? You know I have a great voice…" Rachel starts.

"Berry!" Santana spits, "No. We have talked about that and the answer is no. Got it?"

Rachel just closes her mouth and nods her head before digging into her Vegan Lasagna. The other girls just chuckle at San's outburst towards the little Diva. Mercedes turns back towards San.

"What did he say?"

"Two speakers are broken in Studio 3 and most of the wiring is old or something so we can't use it for around 2 weeks… Which made me have to change the whole goddamn recording schedule." San huffs out in frustration and looks up with a frown when Britt slaps her arm.

"Watch your language." Britt simply states and Santana whispers a soft 'sorry' under her breath before kissing the blonde's cheek. The other girls chuckle yet again at how whipped the raven-haired girl is.

"That really blows… We will work out something tomorrow… For now, no more work talk. It's movie and relax time. So what movie are we watching?" Mercedes asks.

"Funny Girl!" Rachel offers with a big smile.

"No!" Everybody yells back at her and she frowns again before offering another movie that she brought with her.

"Wicked?"

"No! The only thing that is wicked in this house is the abnormality of your height and weirdly big schnoz." Santana dryly states and sends the whole room into a fit of giggles except for the pouting brunette.

"You could just simply say 'no'." Rachel says as she leans back into the couch with her arms crossed in front of her chest and a sad look on her face.

"What about… Enchanted or The Proposal or…" Tina says as she looks through the DVD's they had brought and put in a pile on the coffee table, "We also have Saving Private Ryan and… Forrest Gump..."

"Lots of choices…" Quinn murmurs.

"How about we watch Forrest first and then end it with Enchanted?" Brittany says and they all nod their heads after a few seconds of consideration.

"Good idea." Mercedes states as she gets up and sets up their first movie.

"My girl is brilliant." Santana states with a lovesick smile, which makes the other girls roll their eyes. Britt smiles widely at her cheesy wife and leans in to peck her lips.

"Stop before we either puke or separate the two of you." Quinn says while leaning back into the couch.

"It's our house, we can do as we please. You know where the door is, Fabray." Santana grumbles out but her glare quickly turns into a smile again when Brittany kisses her cheek repeatedly before playfully biting and pulling on her ear.

"I'm gonna need more wine." Quinn sighs out as she stands up to get a new bottle of wine for her and the other girls.

XOX

They finished their first movie and are now watching Enchanted. Santana would never admit that she had to cry when Bubba died in the movie… It always made her tear up, but she is badass and she doesn't ever show her tears to her friends… Well, when she isn't drunk that is.

Another thing she wouldn't ever admit out loud is that she absolutely loves the movie they are currently watching. Only her wife knows, but that was only after Britt discovered her love for the movie when she caught her mumbling monologues and singing songs from the movie one day.

As she is talking along to the scene, she glances at her wife when she feels her eyes on her. She smiles as she looks into shining blue eyes before the blonde leans in to kiss her softly.

"You are a geek." Brittany whispers softly against her lips and Santana just shakes her head with a smile.

"Am not."

"You are." Britt argues back with a big smile on her face, there is a knowing look in her eyes but Santana can't let her win this argument, even though her wife is a hundred percent right on this fact.

"Nope. Got me mixed up with someone else." She whispers back and Britt just chuckles at her before kissing her again.

"Can you two please shush?! Don't need to hear that lovey-dovey shit." Quinn grumbles out and the couple both raise their eyebrows at each other before shrugging.

Santana leans into whisper in Britt's ear, "Her not getting any is getting annoying. Mike needs to come back soon."

Britt just giggles at her and slaps San's ass when the girl stands up to grab her glass to get a refill. She grabs Britt's as well before walking into the kitchen and grabbing a new bottle of wine. She just finished pouring both glasses when she hears a buzzing noise coming from her handbag that's on the counter.

She gets her phone out and sees that she has 2 missed calls from Susan; she frowns before calling her back. She sips on her wine as she waits for her mother-in-law to answer the phone.

"Hello, and finally." A kind voice says with a soft chuckle.

"Hi Mom. Sorry it's Girls' Night and my phone was on silent. How are you?" Santana asks as she leans back against the counter, glass of wine in her other hand.

"I'm okay, thanks for asking. How are you?" Susan asks in return.

"I'm doing great, well that might be the wine talking." Santana states with a small chuckle and gets one in return from the older woman on the other line.

"Wouldn't be surprised with that. Having a glass of wine every now and then can be very relaxing." Susan states and San just nods her head at that before humming her agreement.

"Now, not that I don't like that you called, cause you know I love our talks, but… why did you call?" Santana asks as she takes another sip.

"Well… I was wondering if we could meet up tomorrow for lunch. I have something I need to tell and ask the two of you." Susan says and San can hear the nervous undertone in her voice which makes her frown.

"Is everything okay? It sounds important…"

"Oh, everything is fine. Don't worry about that," Susan chuckles and San lets out a relieved sigh, "It is important what I have to share with you but it'd be better if we could talk about it over lunch since it's a lot that I need to tell you."

"You know, being so secretive isn't exactly keeping me from worrying…" San mumbles out and smiles at hearing her second mother let out another chuckle. San walks towards the fridge to check the couple's schedules that they hung on there.

"You should stop overthinking so much. Don't worry that pretty little head of yours. Everything is okay." Susan reassures her again.

"Right… Working on that." Santana mumbles out and she can practically see the amused look on Susan's face even though she isn't there, "Lunch works for us. I have the day off anyways and Britt only has a class at 4pm so."

"Okay, so let's meet at Vinnie's at say… 12? Or 12.30?"

"Make it 12.30 and you have a deal. Gives me another 30min of extra sleep." Santana grins.

"Or extra play-time under the sheets." Susan casually states and Santana almost chokes on the sip of wine she was taking. Her face is heating up and she lets out a shaky breath.

"Mom! Was that necessary?!"

The only response Santana gets in return is laughter. She shakes her head as she tries to cool her cheeks down by holding the bottle of wine against them. Seriously, the Pierces have like no filter at all sometimes…

"Sorry honey, I just had to," Susan lets out another laugh before continuing, "I will see you two tomorrow. Don't be too late."

"You know us… Always on time… Well mostly on time." Santana laughs out. The two exchange their goodbyes before Santana walks back into the living room with both glasses of wine.

She sits herself down on her wife's lap and hands her, her glass. Britt smiles up at her obviously buzzed counterpart before kissing her on her cheek and pulling her into her body.

"So who called?" The blonde asks quietly while looking at her beautiful wife.

"Your mom. She called about lunch tomorrow. We are meeting her at Vinnie's at 12.30." Santana states before putting both glasses on the table and snuggling back into her blonde.

Britt simply hums and holds her tighter, she starts to softly rub San's back and giggles when she sees her eyes start to flutter a little. For some reason whenever Santana drinks wine, she will get a giggly buzz before getting sleepy. It's the cutest thing to Britt.

The girls continue to watch the rest of the movie in a mostly peaceful silence, except for a few comments and reactions from the girls here and there, and of course San's mumblings as well that were slowly starting to slur together the sleepier she got.

XOX

It was 12am when the girls all left before Britt started to clean up their living room while smiling softly at the sleeping girl on the couch. She was just too adorable and beautiful to Britt and so she can't help but take a pic with her phone before continuing to clean up.

She softly hums the Happy Working Song from Enchanted as she puts the dirty dishes into their dishwasher. She softly starts to mumble the lyrics to herself as she grabs a cloth to wipe the dirty coffee table.

Unbeknownst to her, her soft singing woke up the brunette who is now watching her adorable wife wipe the table with a soft smile on her face.

You can do a lot when you got such a

happy working tune to hum

Britt turns around with wide eyes when she hears the very raspy and sleepy voice behind her. She smiles when she sees her wife stare up at her with half-lidded eyes and a big cheesy grin on her face.

"See you are a geek." She points out before leaning down and kissing the brunette.

"Only for you… and some movies… particularly this one." San mumbles out with a smile.

"Ah! So you do admit it! I win!" Britt grins big and San chuckles sleepily at her dorky wife before letting out a yawn.

"Go to bed babe, I will be there in a few." Britt says as she turns back to wiping the table.

"Mmkay," Santana mumbles before standing up and stumbling in place, "Whoa…"

"You okay there, Drunky?" the blonde teases as she holds her wife steady by her waist.

"Mm not drunk. Couldnut be better in… *yawn* …your armmms." Santana sleepily murmurs while leaning her whole body weight against the blonde, her eyes are barely open at this point and Britt rolls her eyes at her with a smile gracing her face.

"Let's get you into bed." Britt mumbles before picking up her wife Bridal Style, she smiles and kisses the brunette's head as she nuzzles her face into her neck.

She walks up the stairs and to their room before carefully putting her wife down on their bed and taking off the girl's pants and her shirt. Santana sleepily grins up at her wife who just shakes her head at her in amusement. Leave it to San to have her head in the gutter most of the time.

"On or off?" She asks while pulling on the black bra Santana is wearing, San just gives her a pointed look and she shrugs, "What? Could've changed your mind…"

Britt takes her wife's bra off and leans down to place a few kisses on the now bare skin, making Santana squirm underneath her, "Dun sss-start sumthing you can't f-nish."

"You're right. But your twins are just delicious." Britt grins up at her wife and kisses her nose before finishing getting Santana dressed into her sleepwear. She tucks her in and smiles when Santana immediately cuddles into the blonde's side of the bed.

"Just gonna turn off the lights and change. Be right back." She softly says as she watches her wife start to doze off already.

She walks down the stairs and finishes wiping the coffee table, she stands up and puts it in the hamper in their laundry room before turning the lights off in every room. She looks around to see if she got every light before walking up the stairs and towards their bathroom.

She changes into some light blue boxers and darker blue tank top before joining her wife in their bed. As soon as she lies down, her wife cuddles into her. A face nuzzles into her neck while an arm and a leg drape over her body.

She places a kiss on the brunette's head and turns off the little light on the bedside table before whispering softly into dark hair, "I love you San. Sweet dreams."

"Luv ya too. Sw-t dreammssss…"
