"Did you miss me?"
Brittany looks around…did someone follow me in to the bathroom?
"No Brittany. In the mirror."
Brittany looks in the mirror. She is met with the site of huge lips.
"Well, it's been a long time. I've had no dreams lately, and basically living my life perfectly. Santana's due in about a week. I'm thinking about proposing to her tonight….Wait, crap, is it time?" Brittany bit her bottom lip trying to dodge Sam's gaze.
"Almost. But I can't tell you for sure. I don't control what happens or what the outcomes are. I just guide you. So, I can't tell you anything." Sam shrugged.
"You're here for a reason. Do I have to guess, or are you going to tell me?" She narrowed her eyes.
"Whoa there tiger. No need to bring out the claws."
Brittany rolled her eyes. "Whatever, just spill."
Sam opened his mouth but was interrupted by a knock. "Sweetie, are you okay? It sounds like you're talking to yourself." Santana said behind the door.
"Babe, I'm okay. Just nervous about the screening later. I never know what the bosses are gonna say. And I work really hard on that choreography."
Sam nodded his head. He was impressed with how quickly Brittany came up with that. Brittany just shrugged.
"I'm sure they'll love it, sweetie. I'm going to lay down. I just want to cuddle tonight."
"Okay, babe. I'll be there in a sec."
"As I was saying," Sam cleared his throat. "I just want to tell you to remember the things you went through. You haven't had a dream in awhile, and I just want you to not lose what you've seen."
"I know. I haven't forgotten. It's kinda hard to forget the look on Santana's face when I left. I really thought I was doing the right thing. But, now, even if this isn't how my life turns out, I'd take it back in a heartbeat. Santana was my soul mate; she still is." Brittany hung her head down. She didn't like what she did. She wished she could just live in this universe forever.
"Good. Just don't forget…" Sam trailed off as he disappeared.
"I won't. Ever." Brittany muttered under her breath.
Xxx
Santana was laying on her back watching a rerun of Jersey Shore when Brittany walked out of the bathroom.
"I love you." Brittany purred into Santana's neck as she laid down next to the brunette.
Santana giggled, "I know, baby. I love you too." She grabbed Brittany's face and gave her a kiss that portrayed everything she felt. Love, desire, want, need…
"You're my everything." Brittany said after finally gaining composure after that kiss.
"Yeah. You're my everything too. Ya know, I still got it. I'm pretty sure that kiss made you forget your name." Santana smirked.
Brittany rolled her eyes, "Yeah whatever."
She got off the bed, earning a groan from Santana. She walked to Santana's side and got onto one knee. It's now or never. I want to see the look on her face. I want this to be my life forever. Our child, our family, our everything; together.
She cleared her throat, finally looking up to be met with wide brown eyes that contained pure shock and confusion.
"Santana, I love you more than anything in this entire world. Remember when we were watching Xena?" Santana nodded her head. "Well, that episode where Gabby was telling Hercules' friend about soul mates, well I thought of us. People are born with four arms, four legs, two heads, one heart, and one soul. The gods separated them into people with two legs, two arms, one head, half a heart, and half a soul. People are destined to roam the world looking for one's that held their other half of their soul and heart." Brittany took a breath and swallowed visibly. She was so nervous. "Santana Lopez, I believe – no, I know, you are my other half. You always have been. I know the reason why we aren't married is because you're afraid that we'd end up getting a divorce." Santana was about to say something, but Brittany lifted her hand, stopping her. "Quinn told me. She told me you're scared that we'd end up like your grandma who ended up alone. But, we're not her, Santana. We're meant for each other. We're going to have a baby. Our baby. You're carrying our baby. I can't explain how happy I am. You make me happy." Brittany shook her head. She knew she was rambling, but she was nervous. "Santana, you're my other half, you always were and you always will be. I want to be able to call you my wife, I want to be able to show our friends and family our love for each other and I want to see you walk down the isle in a beautiful gown where I can't wait to take it off you." She winked at Santana who just blushed. "Santana Lopez, will you please marry me?" She looked straight into Santana's eyes, which were filled with tears.
"Britt-" She shook her head. Trying to compose herself, but Brittany took it as a no.
"Oh. Um, okay. I understand."
Quickly understanding the miscommunication that just happened, Santana adjusted her legs so they were dangling off the bed and facing Brittany. She took Brittany's face in her hands. How stupid could I be? Quinn told me why we weren't married, and I guess it wasn't the right thing. I'll just take the ring back tomorrow.
"Brittany, stop! I wasn't saying no." There was a glint of hope in Brittany's eyes and Santana grinned.
"I love you more than anything in this world. I wasn't saying no when I should my head. I was composing myself. Brittany, I would be honored to be able to call you my wife. I know our love is so strong and I was nervous and scared over nothing." She glides her thumb over Brittany's bottom lip.
"So… is that a yes?"
"Ye-" before Santana could get out the word, Brittany kissed her hard. The kiss started getting more heated. Tongues were fighting for dominance. They both separated when air was becoming needed. They rested their foreheads together.
"Are you gonna put it on?" Santana chuckled.
Brittany backed up a bit and looked at Santana with confusion.
"Babe, the ring. Are you gonna put it on?"
"Of course!"
Santana glanced down at her left hand. The ring looked like it belonged; it was perfect. "I love it." She said in a whisper.
She looked into beautiful blue eyes that she could get lost in for years.
"Babe, can we just relax? It's kinda late, and I'm tired. Your baby is making my back hurt." The way Santana's nose scrunched together was just adorable and Brittany had to let out a huge laugh.
"Of course, baby. Let's lie down."
After a few minutes of making out, both women fell into a blissful sleep.
