Bang!

"Uhhh…It's too early!" Santana whined.

Santana had been spending more and more time at the Pierce household. As much as she loved being with this family, she could live without the early morning wake up calls.

It was early September and the kids first day of school. Santana had spent most nights since she and Brittany and declared their love for each other. They had spent the rest of their summer in between working, hanging out with the kids, and doing what normal families would do.

Santana smiled to herself, it was hard to believe that just a few months ago she was a lonely Doctor running from her past and now she had a place to call home. She would go through all the early wake up calls in the world if it meant she had a family.

Slipping out of the covers she quietly padded out of Brittany's room and headed down to the kitchen. She spied Brittany at the stove flipping pancakes and the kids sitting on stools at the kitchen island. She looked over to the kids and put her finger to her lips nodding her head towards Brittany. She tip toed over behind the blonde and wrapped her arms around her waist placing a delicate kiss on her shoulder.

"Morning." She whispered in Brittany's ear.

Brittany turned her head a bit to the right and placed a quick peck on Santana lips. "Good morning to you too."

She gave Brittany's waist one more squeeze before she let go and settled herself in between Nate and Emily. "Morning guys, you excited for your first day of school."

Nate nodded but Emily looked down at her empty plate. Santana placed her hand on top of Emily's and placed her other hand under her chin lifting her head. "What's wrong Emily, I thought you couldn't wait to start pre-school."

"I was but I'm going to be the youngest one there, most of the other kids are already four. Sanny I'm only tree." Emily eyes began to fill with tears.

Santana wrapped her arm around Emily. "Sweetheart you'll be four in just two months," Santana swipes a lock of hair that was dangling in front of Emily's face and pushes it behind her ear. "You know I was the youngest in my grade. That's not a bad thing. If you think about it that means that when all of your other classmates are old, you will still be younger."

Emily sits quietly for a few moments than a smile graced her face. "You're right Sanny. It's kinds like how mommy is old, but you're not."

Clank!

Emily and Santana turned around when they heard the spatula that Brittany was holding hit the ground. "Excuse me? Who are you calling old girly?" Brittany walks over to Emily waving her finger in the air. "I'll have you know that I'm not that old," she turned back around and bent over to pick up the spatula. "and I look great for an old person."

Santana had gotten momentarily distracted when Brittany had bent over giving her a spectacular view of her ass. She shook her head and looked up to see Brittany smirking at her over her shoulder. "San do you think I'm too old." Brittany asked innocently.

Santana smirked right back. "If the shoe fits babe."

Brittany narrowed her eyes and focused on finishing breakfast while the rest of the table laughed. "You laugh now, but you all just remember who is in charge." She piled the pancakes on a platter and plopped them on the table. She slipped behind Santana and leaned over to whisper. "I'll deal with you later."

Brittany took her seat across from Nate, Emily, and Santana. Santana visibly shivered when Brittany had whispered in her ear and now she had goosebumps on her arms as she tried to ease her raging libido.

Nate immediately dug into his pancakes and ate with gusto. Emily neatly placed her pancakes on her plate and cut them into orderly pieces. She looked over to her brother and frowned. "You are such a boy."

Nate smiled and shrugged his shoulders. "I'm hungry. Sometimes you act too much like a girl. If you don't hurry we are going to miss the bus."

"Nate the bus isn't going to be here for another 10 minutes, you have plenty of time. You need to slow down, I don't want you choking." Brittany lightly scolded.

Nate nodded sheepishly. "Don't worry mom, if I choked Sanny would save me. She is a Doctor you know." Nate looked over to Santana and smiled.

Santana looked over towards Brittany and winked. "He is right I am a Doctor, but if you need proof I'm sure we can set something up again."

Brittany smiled. "While I sure Santana can handle any situation, I rather we not have to use her expertise in this case." She looked towards Nate, "Eat slower."

Nate nodded and the group finished their breakfast in relative silence, Brittany and Santana subtly sending each other flirty smiles. After plates were placed in the sink and the kids collected their lunches and book bags Brittany walked them out to the bus while Santana finished cleaning the kitchen.

She was finishing washing the last plate when she felt arms slip around her waist and hot breath hit her ear. "You know I'm sensitive about my age."

Brittany slipped her hand under the hem of Santana's t-shirt and began rubbing circles on her stomach, inching her way lower and lower. Santana's breath hitched and she grasped onto the sink with both hands, she threw her head back onto Brittany's shoulder. "I was just teasing…" Her words teetered off when she felt Brittany's other hand work its way up her shirt and grasp her right breast. Her hand on her stomach sinking down to below the waist of her pants. "Hmmm…" Santana moaned.

Brittany placed a kiss just below Santana's ear and gently pulled the lobe into her mouth, causing Santana to let out a louder moan. "Guess what?" Brittany whispered releasing Santana's ear lobe.

"What?" Santana panted, barely holding together from the mix of sensations.

Brittany suddenly stepped back and walked towards the stairs. "I was only teasing. I'm going to shower babe, I got to get to work." Brittany smirked towards Santana and continued her way up the stairs.

Santana turned herself around and glared at Brittany's retreating backside. "So not far!" her eyes remained glued to Brittany's bouncing ass. "So not fair." She mumbled.

Xxxxxxx

"Fucking teasing…just had to make fun of the age didn't you Santana…had to play along with the munchkins." Grumbled Santana to herself as she slammed the door to her car and made her way up the steps to the clinic. "Stupid cold shower, didn't even help."

"You know you really shouldn't talk to yourself it doesn't say much for your mental capacity."

Santana spun around and dropped her purse in surprise. "Quinn! What are you doing here?" she took the few steps between them and pulled the blonde into a hug.

Quinn hugged her back then separated them gripping Santana's shoulder's. "Well my best friend started avoiding me, so I had to take measures into my own hands."

Santana looked away sheepishly. "I'm sorry I've just…"

Quinn gave her a small smile. "You've been happy."

A grin broke out onto Santana's face. "I have been. Everything is so good here Quinn. I don't know how to explain it, it's just perfect."

Quinn nodded but then slapped Santana on the arm.

"Owww…what the fuck Fabray!" Santana pulled herself away from Quinn and took a few steps back rubbing her sore arm.

Quinn smirked. "Next time don't avoid your best friend for months."

"Jesus. After our talk in June I didn't want you pressuring me. I like it here, I didn't want you constantly on my back about coming back." Grumbled Santana.

Quinn's face softened. "Santana, I'm sorry if you felt I pressured you I just wanted to make sure you were doing the right thing."

Santana nodded but didn't say anything. She bent down and picked up her purse.

"You haven't told Brittany yet have you?"

Santana looked back up at Quinn and shook her head.

Quinn sighed. "Santana why haven't said anything, when you talked about her I thought it was going somewhere. Did something happen?"

Santana shook her head again. "Brittany and I are together, but I haven't told her why I moved to town."

Quinn looked confused. "Why not? Hasn't she asked? I mean a renowned surgeon moves to town and that doesn't arouse suspicions."

"She has asked, but I keep brushing her off. She hasn't pushed it, but I know it bugs her."

"Then why the hell haven't you talked to her, keeping secrets in a relationship isn't healthy." Quinn pointed out.

"You don't understand Quinn, Brittany is the most noble and selfless person I have ever met. If you knew some of the things in her life…I just…I don't want to lose her." Santana lifted her hand up to her face and wiped the tears that had started to fall. "If she knew the truth she would never look at me the same."

Quinn moved closer. "Santana you didn't do anything wrong…"

"Yes I did! I screwed up and because of that someone died!" Santana was yelling know.

Quinn rushed over and grabbed her arms. "Stop it! It wasn't your fault. You know that, I know that, everyone know that. You did everything you could."

"I….." Santana words were cut off when a car pulled up to the clinic, turning around she caught a glimpse of blonde hair climbing out of the driver seat.

Brittany slowly made her way towards Santana and Quinn. She saw the distraught look on Santana's face and then turned her eyes towards Quinn questionably. "What happened? People inside heard yelling."

Santana broke away from Quinn and moved into Brittany's arms, burying her face into her chest seeking the comfort she always found there.

Brittany wrapped her in a tight embrace and placed a kiss to the top of her head. "Are you okay?"

Santana lifted her head and nodded she grabbed Brittany's hand and lead her the few steps over to Quinn. "Britt this is my best friend, Quinn Fabray."

"Ahhhh…Santana has told me a lot about you." Brittany extended her hand towards Quinn.

Quinn gripped Brittany's hand in a warm handshake. "I wish I could say the same, but she has only called me once since she moved out here."

Brittany caught onto the teasing tone in Quinn's voice and gave a small smile. "I guess we have been keeping her quite distracted." Brittany looked down to Santana. "Do you want to go talk?"

Santana shook her head. "We both have work. It's okay Britt I'm fine." Santana saw the look of worry on Brittany's face. "I tell you later, I promise."

Brittany relented and turned towards Quinn. "Where are you staying while you are in town?"

Quinn shrugged. "I was hoping I could stay with Santana." She looked towards her. "If that's okay."

Santana dug into her purse and grabbed her keys taking her house key off the chain. "I haven't been staying there lately, but help yourself to anything inside." She turned toward Brittany. "You think you could show her the way?"

Brittany nodded and gave Santana a quick peck on the lips. "You still coming over for dinner, right."

Santana looked over towards Quinn. "Can she come?"

Brittany smiled. "Of course, I want to get to know your friends. Maybe she can tell me some dirty secrets."

Santana laughed and leaned up to wrap her arms around Brittany's neck. "Tonight let's talk. I want to tell you everything."

Brittany wrapped her arms around Santana's waist and held on tightly. "Whenever you're ready. I'd wait forever."

Santana moved her face closer until she could feel Brittany's breath on her lips. "I know that's why I love you." She moved the small space left and pulled Brittany into a short but passionate kiss, completely forgetting about their company.

They broke apart and Brittany moved back, still holding Santana's hands. "I love you too." She let go and walked backwards toward her car. "Don't work too hard." She climbed inside and started the engine then waited for Quinn to get into her own car so she could show her the route to Santana's house.

Quinn gave Santana one last hug then also climbed into her car. Both blondes gave waves before driving off down the road. Santana gave one last sigh and walked into the clinic, putting all thoughts of the past deep inside the back of her mind for now she had a job to do.

Xxxxxxx

Santana pulled her car up the driveway and parked beside Brittany's cruiser. She had made a stop at her house and when she found it empty and continued on to her girlfriend's house. Walking through the door she threw her keys and purse on the table beside the door. She took off her jacket and hung it on the coat rack, shivering at the sudden loss. The name of the town now made complete sense to Santana, it was only September and it was already freezing.

Following the sounds of the TV Santana made her way further into the house and into the living room, glancing over to where the kids were watching one of their shows. Both looked up and gave a quick wave before directing their attention back to cartoons. Chuckling to herself she continued into the kitchen and leaned against the door jam. Both blondes had their backs to the door the only difference was Brittany was at the stove cooking and Quinn was sitting on a stool at the island.

Santana smiled when she heard the light giggle that arose from Brittany in response to something Quinn just said. Clearing her throat she made her way into the kitchen. "I hope I'm not interrupting anything." She gave Quinn a quick side hug then made her way over to Brittany and gave her a quick peck on the lips, leaning over after to see what she was cooking. "Looks good. Making Quinn some of your special tacos."

"What's so special about these tacos?" ask Quinn.

Santana walked around the counter and plopped herself into the seat next to her best friend. "It's all in the salsa. Britt adds a secret ingredient that she refuses to share."

Brittany turned around but continued stirring. "It was my mother's recipe and it gets passed down to all the women in the family."

Santana picked up a chip and dipped it into said salsa. "So you are saying that Emily is going to find out before me."

Brittany shook her head. "You are never going to know." she winked and turned back towards the stove. "I have to have something for you to keep coming back."

Quinn scoffed. "I don't think it's your salsa Brittany that keeps Santana around, unless we're talking about another type of salsa. In that case I may just go and join the kids the living room."

Santana slapped Quinn on the shoulder and laughed. "Brittany's salsa is only a benefit of sticking around." She turned to Brittany who turned her head. "One of the many benefits."

Brittany sent her a sly smile. "Only for you babe."

"Yuck! Can you guys stop, I think I might just puke." Quinn gagged.

Santana shrugged. "Bathroom's down the hall and to the left. Don't make a mess."

Brittany placed bowls filled with different meats and condiments on the table. "Emily! Nate! Dinner!" she turned towards Quinn and Santana. "Don't worry Quinn it wouldn't be the first time I cleaned up puke in that bathroom."

Santana made a face at Brittany. "Eww…Britt we didn't need to know that!"

Brittany shrugged. "Comes with the job San, kid's equal puke at some time or the other."

Their conversation was cut short when the kids came running in at top speed. "Food!" they yelled.

Brittany caught Emily around the waist and swung her around. "Slow down there speedy, there is plenty for all." She placed her onto the stool next to Santana and Nate hopped up onto the one next to Quinn. "Well go ahead and dig in guys, I didn't just spend all my time cooking for nothing."

No one needed any more incentive to get eating. Brittany set up the kid's tacos and then started eating herself, leaning against the counter across from everyone else. The only sounds in the kitchen were the sounds of chewing and Santana's small moans of delight.

After dinner was over Brittany gathered the kids and shuffled them upstairs for bath time.

Quinn worked beside Santana cleaning up the kitchen. "You know you got a nice thing going here."

Santana wiped a dish down and placed it in the cupboard. "I know, you don't know how many times I have thought in the last few months about how much I don't deserve this."

Quinn grabbed the towel Santana was using and dried her hands. "Santana I know I have said this and you don't believe it, but you do deserve this. You deserve every amount of love that this family supplies. Don't ever doubt that." She wrapped Santana into a quick hug. "I'm going to head up and say bye to Brittany and the kids. Are you going to stay here tonight?"

Santana returned the hug with equal fervor. "Yeah, I haven't stayed over at my house in over a month. I also did say that I would talk to Brittany tonight."

Quinn let Santana go and headed up the stairs. Santana sighed and continued cleaning the kitchen. A few minutes later she heard the front door close and a car start. She finished wiping down the counter and flung the towel on to the table. She reached the top of the stairs and collided with the wet body of a naked three year old. "You know kid you aren't supposed to start streaking until later in life." Emily giggled.

"Emily Pierce!" Brittany yelled from the bathroom.

Santana picked up the wiggling girl and walked towards the bathroom. "Uh oh…looks like someone is in trouble."

Emily hid her face in Santana's neck and continued to laugh. Santana walked into the bathroom to find a sopping wet Brittany, and not in the way that Santana likes. "Britt what happened."

Brittany wiped her face. "Little miss you have there decided it would be funny to push me in the tub while I bent over to drain it."

Santana nudged her nose against Emily's shoulder. "Why'd you do that Em, you could have really hurt your mom."

Emily looked up in alarm. "I didn't want to hurt her. I just thought it would be funny."

Santana wiped the damp hair out of Emily's face. "Honey you have to think of the consequences of your actions."

Brittany grabbed a towel and draped it over Emily. "One of those consequences is going to be a week of no television." She kissed Emily on the forehead and walked out of the bathroom leaving wet footprints as she left.

Emily sniffled in Santana's arms. "Sorry kid, you do the crime you do the time." Santana walked Emily back to her room and got her dressed into some pj's and brushed her hair into a braid. "Sanny is mommy mad at me?"

Santana sighed. "No honey, she's just upset because she hates bath time just as much as you do."

"Do not." Brittany pouted from the doorway.

Emily bolted from Santana and latched onto her mom. "I'm sorry mommy, I won't ever ever do it again."

Brittany picked up Emily and squeezed her tight walking over to the bed at the same time. "I know my sweet girl, but your punishment still stands." She laid her down and tugged the blankets up to her chin. "Sleep tight my darling." She kissed her head and turned to the lamp off next to her bed. Santana leaned over and also placed a kiss to Emily's head. "See you in the morning Emily." Santana joined Brittany outside the door and shut it softly behind her.

Santana looked up at Brittany and brought her hand to her face trailing a finger down her cheek. "You didn't hit your head right?"

Brittany shook her head. "She was lucky I hadn't unplugged the tub yet. She's picking up bad habits from Nate. Who by the way is waiting for you to say goodnight."

Santana leaned up and placed a sweet kiss to Brittany's cheek. "I'll go say goodnight while you lock up."

After Santana bid Nate goodnight she made her way into Brittany's room and changed into some night ware, which only consisted of some panties and one of Brittany's long t-shirts. She waited patiently for Brittany under the covers, she could hear the blond downstairs while she went through her nightly routine of locking doors, turning off lights, and making sure the dog had water in its bowl. She hadn't realized that she had started fidgeting in the bed. The fact that she was going to tell Brittany about her past had her on edge.

Brittany slipped inside and closed the door behind her taking her sweatpants off and opting for the same outfit as Santana. She slipped up behind Santana and wrapped an arm around her waist becoming the big spoon to Santana's little spoon. "We don't have to talk about it if you don't want to." She kissed the back of Santana's neck and nuzzled closer.

Santana turned around in Brittany's arms. "I want you to know. I want you to know everything about me Britt." She whispered.

So sorry for the long wait. Honestly I had not realized the amount of time that passed and was kinda of uninspired to continue, but then last night someone Favorited the story and I thought that if someone out there still likes it I might as well continue. So you can thank the last fan who Favorited for the update. I will try my hardest to update as many times as I can before I go back to school at the end of the month. We are going to get into a little bit more drama in the coming chapters, but not too much. I myself love stories with drama, but I wanted this story to remain a bit more on the fluffy side.

So thanks for reading as always. All mistakes are mine, just because you are a college student doesn't mean your English is perfect. Please rate and review.
