EGG NOG

Disclaimer: I do not own Glee :(

It was a crazy day. Brittany had almost missed her train to work because of the massive numbers of people walking around the city, getting where they needed to be.

Oh, and because Santana had interrupted her morning shower for some delightful morning shower sex.

She couldn't really be mad at her wife for that.

Then, every single one of her classes had run late because of people arriving late. Brittany didn't have the heart to tell her students tough shit (like Santana would). Everyone paid the same money so they should all get the same amount of time, right?

Right.

Well, at the time it had seemed like a stellar idea. Only Britt was two minutes away from missing her train back to Brooklyn where Santana and the rest of their friends were waiting for her at Rachel's Chrismukkah party.

Mercedes was going to be there and so were Quinn and Puck and Brittany hadn't seen them since the renaming of McKinley's auditorium. She missed her friends. Plus, Kurt was making his awesome egg nog and Brittany had quite literally been waiting all year for it.

"Come on, come on," she muttered, ducking and diving in between people in the subway. She swiped her card and bolted through the turnstiles. She spotted her train and sprinted for it. She dived through the doors just as they slid closed.

"Close one," a voice commented behind her.

"Yeah," Brittany breathed. "But I made it."

"Heading somewhere fun?"

Brittany glanced down at the girl next to her and smiled. "Yeah, a Christmas party with my friends. My friend Kurt makes the most unbelievable egg nog and I have waited twelve months to have some again."

The girl laughed. "Sounds pretty epic."

"And you?"

"Oh, not much. Just heading into work. Got the graveyard shift."

"On Christmas Eve?" Brittany pouted.

"Well, someone's gotta do it. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a group of friends to spend the holidays with." She didn't say it maliciously so Brittany didn't take it as such.

"Well, I hope work is fun, at least."

"A singing diner. I guess there are worse things."

Brittany glanced at the name badge peeking out from under the girl's coat.

Dani.

Her eyes widened suddenly. Shit. What were the odds? She didn't often feel uncomfortable around people, but she was having a perfectly normal conversation with her wife's ex-girlfriend. That was weird. Her phone started vibrating and she pulled it out of her pocket, smiling at the picture.

"Hey, babe," she answered, keeping her voice as low as she could.

"Hey, are you on the subway?"

"Yep, just made it."

"Great! I have everything ready for you so if you want to head straight to the loft, you can. I'll meet you there."

"Yeah, okay. It'll save me some time if I go straight there."

"I miss you."

Brittany's heart fluttered. "I miss you too."

"See you soon, beautiful. Love you."

"Love you too."

She hung up the phone with a smile on her face and glanced above the door to see which station she needed to get off at. Kurt and Blaine's loft was two stops before hers and Santana's.

"Have we met before?" the girl behind her asked suddenly.

"Um, yeah, like two minutes ago," Brittany replied.

The girl smirked. "No, I mean before that. I have this strange feeling that I know you."

Brittany shook her head. "We haven't."

"Oh, okay. I'm Dani, by the way."

"Brittany."

Dani's eyes widened. "Right. Brittany. Nice to meet you."

Super awkward. "You too."

Thankfully the next stop was hers. She mumbled a Have a good Christmas and got off the train as soon as the doors opened. She jogged to Kurt and Blaine's house, eager to get warm and see her wife. She knocked loudly on the big door and it slid open almost immediately. Her smiling wife greeted her.

"Great timing, babe. I just got here."

Brittany grabbed Santana and kissed her. It was hard and passionate. Brittany didn't know why she felt the need to, but she did.

"Whoa," Santana breathed, gripping Brittany's biceps as she gathered herself. "I will never complain about kisses like that, but are you okay?"

"Just had a weird run in with someone and I wanted to kiss you."

Santana looked at her curiously, but brushed it off when she realised that Brittany was being honest.

"Clean clothes are in the guest room. Kurt already said you could shower if you wanted."

"I will in a sec. But before I-"

"Here you go," Santana cut in with a smirk, holding out a cup of egg nog.

Brittany moaned in a way that was probably better left in the bedroom, but Santana just chuckled. "Drink up, babe. We're going big tonight."

A/N: Yeah, not sure where that came from… :/
