Thanks for all the reviews. There's only one chapter left.
Lily giggles as she follows her mama upstairs with a small birthday cake for her mami.
"Shh we don't' want to wake her before get in." Brittany whispers opening the bedroom door.
"She's going to love it." Lily whispers.
Brittany smiles as Lily opens the door and tries to sneak in. Of course Santana is awake as she heard them coming up, but she's pretending to be asleep.
"Happy Birthday Mommy!" Lily shouts.
"Oh my god baby girl. Did you do all this?" Santana says sitting up.
"Mama helped." Lily says as Brittany sits the second tray down.
"Well how about you two help me eat this all up." Santana says scooting over to make room for her girlfriend.
"Yes," Lily says digging into the bacon.
"Thank you honey," Santana says leaning into the kiss.
"Happy Birthday baby." Brittany says kissing her again.
"I wish I didn't have to deal with the dickhead today." Santana says laying her head on Brittany's shoulder as they eat.
"I'd go with you honey if you wanted." Brittany offers.
"As much as I would like that, I'd feel better if you stayed with Lily in case he tries something." Santana says watching her.
"I was planning on going in to work with Lily since you have to a special key to get up to our office." Brittany says knowing it will make Santana feel better.
"Thank you for doing this for me." Santana says snuggling into her.
"You know I'd do anything for the two of you." Brittany says kissing the top of her head.
"Mami, mama," Lily whines in her pay attention to me voice.
"Yes honey," Santana says smiling.
"Play together," Lily says smiling and jumping up.
Santana jumps up and chases after their daughter as Brittany cleans up.
"Come on Britt leave that for later." Santana says grabbing her hand and pulling her out.
They play princess tea party together for an hour before Santana has to leave. Lily happily gets on her nice clothes excited to go to work with her mama.
"Now you behave for mama okay." Santana says putting on Lily's coat.
"Don't worry San we'll be fine." Brittany says kissing Santana when they split into different cars.
"Mama we're going to work?" Lily asks buckling herself in.
"Yes we are baby girl." Brittany says which causes Lily to giggle.
Brittany smiles and puts on a princess sing-a-long CD and joins in singing with Lily. The two of them sing together the whole ride to Pierce Codes.
"Hey Kurt, I didn't realize that you worked on Saturdays." Brittany says when they walk into the lobby.
"I don't normally but Quinn asked me to come in since half the company is coming in today." Kurt tells her.
"Well make sure to put in for overtime." Brittany says.
"I will," Kurt says before looking down. "And who is this pretty girl?" he asks.
"Hi, I'm Lily," Lily says peeking out from behind Brittany's leg.
"Lily's a very pretty name. My name is Kurt, would you like a lollipop?" Kurt asks.
"Mama?" Lily says looking up at Brittany.
"Go on," Brittany says.
"Thank you Mr. Kurt." Lily says taking the lollipop.
"You are very welcome Ms. Lily." Kurt says waving at them as they head to the elevator.
"Does he work for you and mami?" Lily asks.
"Yes he does," Brittany says ruffling her hair.
"Mami said you're in charge of everyone." Lily says as they ride up in the private elevator.
"I am, I get to tell everyone what to do." Brittany tells her.
"That's so cool." Lily says running out when the doors open.
Brittany smiles as she watches her daughter run into her office. All she can do is smile as she thinks of the future and Lily running up here after school.
"Come sit at mami's desk and color while I finish up some work." Brittany says pulling out the chair.
"Mami works closely with you." Lily says all smiles.
"Yep and we both enjoy it." Brittany says smiling.
They work quietly for upwards of an hour before Quinn comes barging in.
"Brittany! You're actually here on a Saturday." Quinn says walking in.
"Don't get use to this." Brittany says smiling at her friend as Lily comes stomping in.
"Leave mama alone!" Lily shouts stomping her little foot right behind Quinn.
"Woah," Quinn says turning around to face a mini version of Santana. "Who is this?"
"My and Santana's daughter Lily. Santana's handling a few things today and I offered to bring Lily since she's always wanting to come here." Brittany says all smiles as Lily climbs onto her lap.
"I didn't realize you had adopted her." Quinn says not even sure if she remembers that Santana has a kid.
"Yep, she asked me to and I did." Brittany says. "Do you want ice cream?" she asks.
"Yes!" Lily shouts.
"We'll see you later." Brittany says shooting Santana a text to meet them at Ruby's Ice Cream Park when she's done.

Santana arrives at the courthouse a nervous wreck. She knows that her ex-boyfriend and Lily's father also known as the dickhead is trying to get custody.
"Santana you need to relax." Mercedes, Brittany's personal lawyer says. "This is just a hearing, nothing will be decided today."
"I haven't seen him since I told him I was pregnant and he told me it wasn't his." Santana says following Mercedes.
"And we can use that and everything to make sure you keep custody." Mercedes reassures her. "Hell maybe the judge will just throw this out. You make very good money now and have health insurance. Not to mention you're dating and living with Brittany whose beyond rich."
"Thanks Mercedes," Santana says giving her a hug before they walk in.
The whole thing lasts less than fifteen minutes when it's determined that Lily shall stay with Santana until they have the hearing in two weeks. Santana's ex Coby is an all American looking man, six foot four, sandy brown hair, green eyes and very professional looking.
"Well that went as well as can be expected." Mercedes says as they walk out.
"It isn't looking good is it?" Santana asks.
"No, the fact that he's married and is the president of his own tech company making more money than you well it doesn't bode well for you." Mercedes says softly.
"Damn, doesn't the fact he didn't care for the first four years of her life matter?" Santana shouts very frustrated.
"Santana relax, I'm going to help you and you know Brittany will do everything in her power to make sure you two don't lose Lily." Mercedes tells her.
"Even with this she still has rights, right?" Santana asks wanting to make sure that Brittany is still legally Lily's mom.
"It will all be decided in two weeks until then yes." Mercedes says. "Now stop worrying and the two of you will meet me on Monday to go over things."
"Okay," Santana says trusting that Mercedes will help her and win this for her.
"Go find your girlfriend and daughter." Mercedes says just as Santana gets a text.
"I think I will, thanks Mercedes for everything." Santana says giving her a hug.
She sees Coby walking towards her and gulps, she really doesn't want to deal with him.
"Go, I'll handle him." Mercedes says pushing Santana towards the parking lot.
She had promised Brittany not to let Coby near Santana.

Santana manages to get to the ice cream parlor before Brittany and Lily. She ends up waiting ten minutes before they arrive.
"Mami!" Lily shouts running to her.
"Hey babe," Brittany says kissing her on the lips.
"Hey," Santana says lifting Lily up.
Brittany can tell that something is bothering her girlfriend but doesn't say anything as she knows what it will be about. That's not something she wants to talk about around their daughter.
"Can I get three scoops of cookie dough?" Lily sweetly asks.
"Sure," Santana says gasping as Brittany pulls out a bouquet of red roses. "Britt."
"Did you really think that breakfast was your only gift?" Brittany asks smiling and winking at Lily who giggles.
"What are you two planning?" Santana asks tickling Lily as they get into line.
"None," they both say.
"Why don't I believe you two." Santana says shaking her head.
"Because mama likes to surprise you." Lily sweetly says.
"Yes I do," Brittany says paying for their ice cream before Santana can.
It's something annoys Santana that Brittany always pays for their meals. Just once she would like to pay.
"Should we split our cones?" Brittany asks looking over at her girlfriend.
"Sure," Santana says.
After eating Brittany walks behind them allowing Lilly to lead Santana out to her surprise. She smiles to herself as Lily drags her out.
"Happy birthday mami," Lily says pointing to the brand new re BMW.
"Oh my god Britt." Santana says spinning around and kissing her.
"So I take it you like your present." Brittany says smiling.
"It's too much." Santana says walking up to the car.
"No it's not, today marks the best day of my life, the day you were born baby." Brittany says holding her tightly to her. "Now go take your new car for a drive, we'll meet you back at the house."
"Fine," Santana says taking the keys with a smile on her face.
This really is the best birthday gift she's gotten especially after all the shit she's went through earlier.
"Love you mami," Lily says hugging her before following her other mom.
"I love you too and I'll see you back at home." Santana says kissing her head. "I love you too." she says looking up at her girlfriend.
"Go drive around a bit." Brittany says pushing her towards the car.
Lily waves as Santana gets in and drives off, she then pulls on Brittany's leg holding her arms up.
"You're going to have fun tonight with your uncle." Brittany says carrying her to their car.
"We're going to watch the Little Mermaid." Lily happily says.
"That sounds like fun." Brittany says. "Do you want to spend the night at your uncle's or come home?" she asks.
"Come home," Lily says.
"Okay when we get back I'll come get you okay." Brittany says not wanting to steal her mom away from her all night.
"You give her the ring?" Lilly asks.
"Yes right before we come get you." Brittany says tickling her.
"Cool," Lily says.
Brittany had asked Lily if she was okay with her marrying her mom. Lily had just been happy that Brittany was never leaving them.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Britt that was a very nice dinner." Santana says as they take a stroll through the park.
"I know this is your birthday and all, but we should talk about how earlier went before we pick up Lily from your brother's." Brittany says putting her jacket around Santana's shoulders.
"I wish we didn't have to." Santana softly says.
"I know baby, but we really need to. I didn't mention it earlier because of Lily, but I could tell you were really upset." Brittany softly says kissing her.
"I don't know what to do. It's so horrible." Santana says trying to whip away her tears.
"Baby tell me what happened." Brittany softly says wrapping her arms around her.
"He's suing for full custody and has a good chance to get it." Santana sobs no longer able to control the tears.
"I can't believe that, he's never met Lily or seen her." Brittany says. "I'm sure Mercedes will win this, she's one of the best lawyers in the country."
"He makes way more money than me and is married I'm going to lose her." Santana sobs pushing away from Brittany.
"Baby, we can beat him." Brittany says trying to pull her back into a hug.
"No! Don't you understand! I'm going to lose her and there's nothing you can do!" Santana shouts falling to the ground.
"San," Brittany says placing a hand on her shoulder.
"No, not even your money can save us." Santana shouts.
Brittany gathers her up in her arms, hugging her girlfriend tightly to her.
"Then marry me." Brittany whispers in her ear.
"What?" Santana says pushing back slightly to look in her eyes.
"Santana Lopez will you marry me?" Brittany asks.
"Britt this isn't something you can just-"
Brittany just smiles and pulls out a five cart diamond ring.
"Before you say anything I have thought this through and planned to do this anyway." Brittany says. "So….."
"You want to marry me even with this?" Santana asks.
"Babe, you and Lily are my family. I want everything with you two. Together we'll make sure you don't lose custody." Brittany softly says.
"Yes," Santana says kissing her.
After several minutes of making out they finally break apart.
"We need to go tell Lily the good news." Brittany says.
"You told her." Santana asks curious.
"Yep I had to ask if she was okay with this." Brittany says smiling.
