Santana doesn't even bother going into their room to look for her wife she makes a bee line for her eldest daughter's room. Standing in the doorway she sees one of the most beautiful sights her wife cuddled up with her daughter just like she does with her. Not wanting to disturb them she goes into the twins room and takes them down to the kitchen ignoring all the glee kids who are in the living room needing time to calm down still.
"Is Brittany okay? It must bring up a lot of old memories us all being back together again" Quinn asks coming in with Tina.
"I'm not sure she's sleep with Noelle right now and yeah it does. Sorry about going a little nuts back there whenever I see Brittany cry I just lose it." Santana takes two bowls down and starts making oatmeal.
Both women nod their understanding at her giving her a soft smile.
"We'll take over with these two adorable children and send Noelle down so you can talk to your wife." Tina offers slightly smiling figuring that the two women need to talk about some heavy things.
"Thanks, you two are life savers." Santana hands Maria to Quinn and Dawson to Tina before heading back upstairs.
"Noelle, Noelle get up and go downstairs and get food." Santana shakes her daughter up, picking her up and scooting her out the door.
She sits on the bed next to her wife stroking her beautiful cascading blonde hair. She scoots onto her lap and wraps her arms around her wife's waist mumbling something about sleeping.
"Britt, Britt can you tell aside from everyone being an ass why are you balling your eyes out and sleeping in our daughters bed." Santana gently asks rubbing her wife's back.
Brittany slowly turns around and gets up facing her wife's tear streaked eyes letting out a small whimper.
"Artie was accusing you of dragging me away from everything and everyone I knew and then with everyone else agreeing it was too much for me. Don't they get that I love you and you would never do that to me." Brittany cries into Santana's shoulder as she wraps her arms around her wife tighter.
"B, maybe we should tell them everything that happened tonight when the kids go to sleep." Santana smiles down at her wife.
"Really?" Brittany lifts her head looking into the Latina's chocolate brown eyes.
"Yeah well everything they said was only because they have no idea about what happened. So I figured to clear things up so they don't assume things anymore." Santana kisses the blonde. "Go in our room and change and I'll tell everyone to leave you alone." she left her in their room and heads down stairs.
She notices that everyone is sitting in the living room. Giggling is coming from down the hall and she assumes that Quinn, Tina, Mike and Puck are in the play room with her kids. Deciding that she's going to go talk to the glee clubbers in the living room.
"Listen up groveling pieces of shit." Santana walks into the living room glaring around for a second before her eyes go soft. "I don't want any of you to say anything that will upset Britt cause if you do I will personal kick you out of my house." swinging around to face Artie. "As for you, the only thing Brittany wanted was to see all of her old friends and reconnect and you asking if she's not happy is not cool in my book. For one if she wasn't happy she'd leave and two you could never make her happy I would know. If you so much as try to touch my wife I will go All Lima Heights on your ass." with that she turns around and heads to play with her children.
Artie knows that he doesn't stand a chance with Brittany it's pretty obvious now, he feels like he should apologize for ever questioning the blonde's happiness. He knows it will be hard, but he does want a friendship with both women.
When Brittany finally comes down at ten it is decided that they should go to the beach in downtown where they can also shop.
"Brittany come over here!" shouts Quinn. "Us girls want to take a boat ride and were hoping you would pay." she smiles trying to look all innocent.
"I'll stay with the kids and boys." Santana kisses her on the cheek. "You go have fun."
"Be nice, you have Puck and Mike to back you up not that you need it as everyone here is a friend, but please don't fight anyone sweetie." Brittany passionately kissed before heading to the dock. "I know how you are and don't give me that look." she shouts back knowing Santana is giving her a what the fuck look.
"Well while the girls take a boat ride let's go in the water." Blaine suggests picking up Dawson.
"Kay, just don't let any of my kids get hurt." Santana warns the men as Sam picks up Maria running after Blaine. Finn and Santana are the only ones who are not in the water.
"Your kids are really well behaved. Do you mind if I play with Noelle?" Finn asks quietly unsure if she'll actually let him or will attack him for even asking such a thing.
"Of course, you don't have to ask. Even if you've said something's that back in high school might have been true and it offended us doesn't mean I think you're a bad guy. You don't know us well enough and that's mostly my fault. Anyway you've always been good with kids." Santana laughs when Noelle jumps on his back yelling for him to go into the water. All of her kids have always been very sociable (Brittany's doing not her's) and appear to enjoy having their old glee clubbers to play with.
"San! San!" Brittany shouts from the pier. "We'll be back in three hours." Santana nods as her wife disappears.
They have been on the boat for a half hour before Kurt finally decides to ask Brittany more about herself.
"So Britt I know that you don't want to talk about what happened after graduation with Santana so instead I was wondering why you two let us come here and why you're not at work."
"Yeah B, why did you let us come and not say anything about Santana." Quinn looks at her expectantly.
Rachel, Mercedes and Tina all look at her also wanting to the know her answer. After all they haven't heard from her in seven years.
"To be honest I've missed all of you and even though San and me couldn't take time off to go back I still wanted to see you all. There are other reasons why we didn't want to go back, but I'm not getting into that now. In short I wanted to see everyone and it took some convincing of Santana to allow some of you here in our house, but you know her." Brittany tells them sitting back sighing.
"Who didn't she want in your house?" Rachel asks suspecting she is one of them.
"Obviously you and Artie." Quinn laughs playfully shoving Rachel.
"You can add Finn and Blaine to that list." Brittany smiles thinking of how much convincing it had taken though really she knew that the only one Santana truly dislikes is Artie.
"So she was fine with the rest of us." Tina says causing them to stare at her.
"The only ones she said she wanted to see were Quinn and Puck. Though I know that she also wanted to know about Mercedes, Sam, Kurt, Mike and Tina. Hell she also deep down wants to know about Finn, Blaine and even Artie and Rachel." Brittany stands up and looks out at the water.
She thinks back to the day they had bought the house. It had been a few months after Noelle was born and Santana wanted to get a big ass house to impress her bosses and clients. Most thought that Santana was the bread winner like everyone always did and assumed that it was her money, but little did they know it is mostly Brittany.
Brittany had insisted on the house having a duck pond which had made it more difficult. Santana had blown up at their realtor when she had said that none of the houses would have a pond. She had yelled at her in Spanish for several minutes until Brittany had finally calmed her down.
After that the realtor doubled her effort and had finally found a mansion on the beach with a dock and most importantly a duck pond. Brittany had loved that there was loads of room for all the kids that she wanted to have. Santana had loved the master bed room how big it was and the shower. If the realtor hadn't been there she would have jumped her right then.
"Britt come on I want to make sure my man is okay?" Rachel shouts at Brittany who is in her own world.
