Brittany was in the shower and Santana had gotten dressed. She was sitting at the kitchen table drinking her coffee thinking about what Britt had said. "Another baby", Of course she wanted another one, but It had been a constant source of 'turmoil' Santana was not against another child, she was just against Brittany carrying as she insisted and the reasons for that were simple. Britt had a rough delivery with Emma, to say the least. Her pregnancy was smooth, no problems, or complications close to perfect to be honest. But after four hours of labor with Emma, things went south. She couldn't help but think back to that day.
"San this really hurts!" She squeezed Santana's hand through yet another contraction.
"I know Brit-brit, but you can do this think of how awesome it is going to be when it's here."
"San I told you, stop calling our child 'it'!"
"Well, if you would have let us find out the gender I could call our baby what it is."
"I want to be… SUR- Shit!" She squeezed harder.
Than the monitors started to go nuts beeping, the nurse came in right away.
"What's going on?" Santana was clearly nervous.
The nurse ignored Santana, "Heart beat dropping" was all she said, then two other nurses walked in, and one stopped to talk to Brit and San.
"The baby is in distress, we are going to get you to the OR ad take the baby out."
"You mean a C-section?" Santana could barely speak.
"Yes, it's the best option for both mom and baby" The nurse said gently "she has gotten the imbilicacord wrapped around her, which is causing Brittany's pressure to drop as well. we will let you gown up so you can be in the room if you want."
"Please go San" She looked over Britt had tears in her eyes.
"Of course, there is nowhere else I would be baby." Than it clicked, the nurse said 'she and her'… their baby was a girl.
"Hey what are you thinking about?" Britt snapped San out of her thoughts walking into the kitchen, looking beautiful as always. She was wearing a pair of dark Denim Skinny jeans, a long olive-y green V-neck shirt, and her chocolate brown uggs.
"Nothing" she did not want to bring up that day now today was supposed to be perfect she didn't want to argue. "You look awesome" she stood and kissed Brit, ready?"
"Yup, do you think I should take my big jacket or just my hoodie?"
"Bring both it may snow today." Lima was super cold in January; they were due for a snow soon. They headed out the door headed to a location unknown to Britt, "we got out of the house so fast, I felt like we were missing something."
"We were, our daughters it's so weird not having the kids." She said looking behind at the empty back seat.
"I know, but we need days like this, just us, to recharge and have some alone time" Santana took Brit's hand and kissed it.
About fifteen minutes later they pulled up to their destination; San looked at Brittany's eyes got huge with excitement. "We're going to the aquarium?"
"Yes ma'am, you always say that this is the 'perfect' date place when we are here with the girls."
"It is, come on what's more romantic then fish?"
Santana laughed as she could think of about fifty things off hand, "Well, I listened and not only are we going to go to the aquarium we are going to eat here, in the 'fish room'."
"We can't eat there San." Brittany stopped in her tracks.
"Why not?" San looked at Britt confused.
"Because I can't eat fish when I'm surrounded by them!"
"Baby, we aren't going to eat fish, we are going to eat in the restaurant here, it's called the fish room because you're surrounded by fish love."
"Oh okay" Brittany grabbed her hand again and headed in the door, "Sorry, that was stupid."
"Hey stop that, nothing you say is stupid don't you ever say that okay?"
Britt looked at Santana, gave her a soft smile, and nodded, "You're the best San you get me, and you always have."
"Cause you're my other half baby, you make me better I love you."
Brittany leaned over and kissed her, "I love you too San."
Britt and San walked the whole aquarium it took them about three hours, because Brittney wanted to 'really see all of the fish', but Santana didn't mind she couldn't have been more content as her and her gorgeous wife walked hand and hand Brittany pointing out her favorites, she couldn't take her eyes off the fish, and Santana couldn't take her eyes off her. She could not be luckier; Brittany was the best thing that ever happened to her, she made her softer side come out, and now her girls too, Santana never thought that she would want to be a mom, she thought back to that conversation with Brittany shortly after they had married.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Are you kidding me?" Brittany was shocked.
"No, I don't want em."
"Santana Maria Lopez-Pierce, you mean to tell me you don't want children, like ever?"
"Yes, Brittany Susan Lopez-Pierce, I mean to tell you I don't want children, like ever. Why do we need children, life is perfect with just us…?"
"Well that just…. Sucks! I wish you would have told me this sooner." She got up and walked away.
"WHY, SO YOU COULD HAVE MARRIED SOMEONE ELSE?" Santana's fiery side was making an appearance and she didn't even know why.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Where are you at?" Brittany asked as they sat down for lunch at the restaurant; they were seated in the 'view room' where they were surrounded by all kinds of fish, sea turtles, dolphins, and even sharks.
"Sorry" Santana said snapping out of it.
"You have been doing that a lot today; are you okay?" Brittany took her hand across the table.
"Yes, of course" Santana smiled, "I am having a great day with you."
"This is incredible" Brittany looked around wide eyed, "a perfect day."
"Do you remember your 20th birthday?"
The waiter came over and introduced himself as Brandon and asked what he could get them to drink, "I will have an iced tea" Santana looked to Britt, she nodded, "make that two please?"
"Would you like a minute to look over menus?" Brandon asked.
"Yes please" Britt said.
"No problems our appetizers are on the front page and our lunch specials are on the back, I will be with you in just a minute or so then." Brandon pointed out the menu and then walked away.
"Yes" Britt smiled, "I remember my 20th it was amazing the first time I had ever been out of the country how could I not?"
"The Caribbean was perfect." Santana smiled, "I really wanted to do something amazing for this birthday, but it's a little harder with the girls."
"You know what would make this birthday even better than the Pirate trip?"
Santana laughed at the question, Brittany referred to the Caribbean as the 'Pirate trip' because of the movie Pirates of the Caribbean, the whole flight there she asked if Santana thought they would see Captain Jack Sparrow. "What?" she inquired, wanting to know what could possibly top that trip, they barley wore clothes the whole time, and if they did it was a bathing suit.
"A baby" Brittany knew the response she was going to get from San.
"I don't want to fight about this again Brit."
"Why won't you even talk about it?" Brit asked.
"Because, I can't go through that again" She looked down at the table.
"It won't it was a freak accident even the Doctor said so, and he said it would be SAFE to carry again."
"Can we please talk about this later?" Santana said not wanting to ruin the day, she did not want to budge on this, and she did not want to start an argument, not today.
"Santana, please at least think about it… please?" Brittany looked at her with those eyes.
"Okay, I will think about it, but that doesn't mean I will change my mind, it just means I will think about it, Okay?"
"Good enough for me" Brittany smiled, "Now back to the Pirate trip."
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-..-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-..-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Can I make my Mommy a card Auntie Quinn?" Emma asked.
"Yes, Ella do you want to make your Auntie B a card too?" Quinn went to the cabinet and got out colorful cardstock paper and markers.
"Yes!" Ella said excited, "Mommy can I have a cupcake?"
"No Ell, we are going to have cake tonight that is IF you let me finish it" Quinn owned one of the most successful bakeries in Lima.
"What kind of cake are we having Auntie Quinn?"
"Chocolate with raspberry filling" She answered whipping the frosting as her cell phone rang, "That would be your Daddy Ella," She said, she could tell by the ringtone, pour some sugar on me, he set it himself.
"Can I answer it?" Emma asked.
"Yes, please" Quinn said the phones in my apron pocket.
Emma reached in, got the phone out, and answered it, "Hello Uncle Noah."
"Hello Emma" Puck said, she was the only person he let call him that, one day Emma asked her uncle what his name was because Mama said it wasn't really Puck that that was just his nickname, and after he told her she started calling him 'uncle Noah' and it stuck. "Where is your Auntie Quinn?"
"Right here, she is making my Mommy's cake."
"Can I talk to her?"
"He wants to talk to you Auntie."
"Okay can you please put it on speaker, press the green button, and set it on the table" Emma did just that. "Hello, you're on speaker hands are covered in frosting"
"Okay, how are you babe?"
"Good, trying to get the cake done, and keep these rugrats in check."
"Do you want me to come get the girls?" He asked, "I am done at the office." Puck continued his pool cleaning business after high school in California, Quinn was at Yale, when she in her second year when Puck called her out of the blue one night, to tell her that he had seen Shelby and Beth at a local café, they talked for hours that night and had remained in constant communication after that. Sending little texts here and there; they also remained in close contact with Shelby and Beth, just talking on the phone and sending pictures back and forth until one day Shelby called and invited Quinn out to California for Beth's 5th Birthday, of course she went and and from there Puck and Quinn took off, Quinn decided to leave Yale and move back to Lima to pursue her love for baking opening up a bakery, Puck moving his company headquarters to Lima, it was so successful now that he was in three states he now just ran the business end of it from Lima.
"Please, that would be great! Did you pick up Britt's present?"
"Yeah, all done. When are we going to tell everyone about the… ya know?"
"I don't know soon, not on Brittany's birthday that's the last thing she needs, with wanting to have another one and all, you should really talk to San about that see what her deal is." Quinn said trying to whisper.
"Why me?" He asked.
"Because you're her best friend…"
"Okay well I will see, I'm almost there be there in ten minutes."
"Beth's coming tonight; you need to remember to get her." Quinn reminded him.
"I know I already talked to Shelby, she is going to stay the next couple of nights too Shelby has to go in for a marrow test after chemo today."
"Is someone going with her?"
Shelby and Beth also moved back to Lima about a a year and a half ago, when Shelby was diagnosed with cancer, she wanted Beth to be close to Quinn and Puck and her new sister Ella she was ten in a half at the time, they had all had a wonderful relationship now.
"Yeah her sister Rose and I think Rachel is going to go over there after the party and sit with her for a while."
"Okay I will see you soon, I love you."
"Love you too babe" he said then hung up.
"Finish up those cards girls; you're going to go home until the party." Quinn told them getting back to the cake.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-..-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-..-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.—
"That was an amazing day." Brittany smiled.
"I am glad you enjoyed it, but we have one more stop before your party tonight." Santana told her.
"What where are we going?"
"It's a surprise, but I have a feeling you will love it."
Brittany took Santana's hand excited about her next surprise. "I love you so much San."
"I love you too B."
"I don't think I will ever know how I got so lucky; I mean I could have ended up with a robot…"
"You mean Artie?" Santana laughed.
"Yes, I am convinced he is part robot San." Santana just laughed harder, "Hey you could have ended up with Fishy Mouth."
Santana was now laughing so hard her stomach hurt, "wait who?"
"Sam, you know 'Fishy Mouth'"
"Trouty Mouth" She corrected her, "And NO I couldn't have, I only dated Sam to get over you… or make you jealous."
"I only dated Artie because I thought he could make me powerful." Brittany said under her breath.
"You're so funny." Santana said, "There is never a dull moment with you."
"I miss the girls; can we call Blaine and check on Olivia?"
"Sure, but we are almost to our next stop so make it a quick call okay."
Britt nodded and pulled out her cell phone and put it on speaker.
"Hello" Blaine answered.
"Hi, how's everything going?"
"Great" He said, "How is everything going there?"
"Awesome we went to the aquarium, so much fun. Can I talk to her?"
"She is down for a nap right now; we can call you when she gets up if you want."
"Sounds great, Kiss her for me."
"Will do, have a great rest of your day and we will see you tonight, love you B."
"Love you Blaine, Kurt too thanks for everything!"
"Any time, you know we love to have her." He said.
Brittany hung up the phone and noticed that they had stopped moving, "Shut up" She said looking up at where they were, "I haven't been here in years." She had a huge smile on her face. "What are we doing?"
"Come on this is where your surprise is." She gestured getting out of the car. Brittany followed having no idea what was going to happen, but she was super excited to see.
