A/N: Just a beforehand note, this story will be ending at chapter 20. I wanted to draw it out as long as possible, but I realized there wasn't a point. It's just not the same as When Dreams Come True, honestly... when I get to the point that it's a burden to write a chapter of a story, I know I have to end it. Don't worry, it's not too much of a straight cut off ending or anything. The last chapter will be very short, but it will feel like an ending.
Also, most of these last chapters will be relatively short... :(

Dani and Santana exchanged an excited glance, and then they slowly unlocked their apartment door. They could hear a movie playing on the TV in the living room, and assumed that their girls and Santana's parents were all cuddled in there watching it.
Luckily, their door didn't have any weird squeaks or anything, so no one heard them come in. Acting casual, they walked down the hall and into the living room. Still, no one heard them coming in. They were all curled up on the couch watching Sleeping Beauty.
"Guess who's back early!" Dani and Santana exclaimed simultaneously, as they had planned, causing all five on the couch to jump out of fear, and then for three little girls to jump off the couch and run and hug their moms.
"Mami! Mommy! You're back early!" Leah exclaimed.
"Why did you come back a day early?" Sofi asked curiously, stepping back. Her eyes caught on her Mommy's hair. "Whoa."
"Like it, Sofi?" Dani asked with a chuckle.
"Like what?" Emma asked, stepping back. She saw Dani's pink hair and gasped. "It's pink!" she exclaimed, her eyes widening as a grin appeared on her face. "I love it!"
"I love it too!" Leah and Sofi exclaimed at the same time by accident.
"Thanks, girls, I'm glad," Dani told them with a grin.
"And, we came back early because we couldn't stand to be away from you girls any longer," Santana told them, crouching down and opening her arms to the girls, who squeezed into one giant group hug.
"Let Mommy into the hug too!" Sofi exclaimed, and Dani crouched down and joined the giant hug.
"And Abuela and Abuelo!" Leah suggested with a giggle.
"Get over here, Mami y Papi!" Santana called to her parents with a chuckle. They joined in the giant hug as well, and then they all separated, laughing. Dani loved her family.
They spent the night just hanging out and talking about the vacation, and what the girls did with their grandparents over the last week, even though they'd heard all about it on the phone every night. As much as Dani had loved her alone time with Santana, she had really missed her little girls.
Now that the anniversary vacation was over, though, Dani had two things to focus on. First, her album in progress. And second, or maybe first because it was more important, Santana's birthday. That night, she gathered the girls away from Santana, who was talking to her parents in the living room, to talk about their plan for Santana's birthday in July.
"Why are we being all secret Mommy?" Emma asked in a whisper. They were gathered in Dani and Santana's room.
"Do you remember what's happening next month?" Dani asked her daughters.
"The Fourth of July?" Leah raised an eyebrow, looking strangely like a mini Dani. Like... a clone or something. It was crazy.
"Well yes, but what else?"
"Mami's birthday!" Sofi remembered, her voice hushed.
"Oh yeah!" Emma exclaimed.
"Shhh!" Leah and Sofi shushed her harshly.
Emma raised her eyebrows. "Oh yeah, sorry," she said in a quiet voice.
"Yep, it's Mami's birthday next month, so we have to plan a surprise party for her," Dani declared. She'd always wanted to throw a surprise party for her wife, but she'd wanted the girls to be a little older when they did it so that they could help. And it wasn't like they could have a surprise party every year, or else it would stop being a surprise.
"Why a surprise party?" Sofi asked. "We always just watch movies for Mami's birthday and get her presents and eat ice cream."
"Exactly, so this year we're going to do something even more special, and she'll have no idea," Dani informed her girls with a smile.
Emma grinned. "I like this idea! We can have cakes and cupcakes and ice cream and lollypops and chocolate and gummy bears and gummy worms and pudding and—"
"Okay, looks like Emma is going to be in charge of sweets," Dani said with a laugh.
"Are we going to do it on her birthday?" Sofi asked.
"Well, since her birthday is on a Friday, I think we definitely can," Dani answered. "The problem is that she won't be working, which means we need to come up with a way to distract her for the whole day while the party gets set up. And all our friends can come and we can have music and karaoke and a ton of sweets and food."
"I wanna be in charge of sweets and food!" Emma exclaimed, getting herself shushed by her sisters again.
"Okay, so the morning of the party you and someone else can go to the store and buy a ton of stuff, okay?"
Emma nodded excitedly, and Dani grinned. This was going to be a lot of fun.
"I wanna decorate for the party," Sofi told her mom.
"That works, but we still have to think of a way to keep Mami out of the house for the whole day until the party," Dani reminded her daughters. That was honestly the part she was most worried about achieving.
"That's easy," Sofi piped up. "Send her to the store to buy something that doesn't exist."
"That's mean," Leah argued with a frown.
Dani frowned a little as well. "That would work, but I don't want to make Mami stressed out and running around all day on her birthday. I think it'd be better if we find someone that could drag her around all day and do something fun or something."
"Rae Rae?" Emma suggested.
Dani shook her head. "You can bet that Rachel, Quinn and Kurt are all going to want to help with the party itself."
"So Brittany then," Sofi suggested with a shrug. "They can have a girls day out or something."
"Yeah... yeah that might work. Tell you what, tomorrow I'll call Brittany and ask her, alright?"
The girls nodded enthusiastically. And just then, the door opened. "What are you all doing in here?"
"The Fourth of July," Leah piped up as their lie. "I want to go to Lima and see Rachel's dads have their party like we did a couple years ago."
"That sounds like fun," Santana said, looking at the group of the suspiciously. "Well, Abuelo and Abuela are leaving, so come say goodbye."
The little girls jumped up and ran to their grandparents, who were standing by the front door. As Dani followed them and reached Santana, who was still standing by the entry way of their bedroom, the Latina asked, "What were you guys talking about?"
"The Fourth of July," Dani answered, giving Santana weird look that she hoped looked like confusion.
"Are you for or against going to Rachel's?" Santana asked Dani suspiciously.
"Well, we don't even know if Rachel is going back to her dads', so that's important to know before we make any decisions," Dani pointed out, giving her wife a small smile and taking her hand. They walked over to the front door.
"Thanks so much for watching them for us, Maribel, Pablo," Dani thanked them, grabbing them each in a hug.
"Anytime, Dani, they are angels," Maribel insisted.
"Adios Abuela! Adios Abuelo!" the little girls exclaimed one more time, and Maribel and Pablo returned their goodbyes before giving Santana one last hug and leaving with their things.
The girls each went to their room after that, so Santana and Dani went to their own room. "You know, the more I see you with pink hair, the more in love with it I fall."
"Such a sap," Dani teased, giving her wife a peck on the lips before going into the bathroom to take off her makeup and brush out her hair.
"Yes, you know me, getting sappy while I talk about hair," Santana replied sarcastically, rolling her eyes.
"You're cute, babe," Dani said with a laugh.
"I'm not."
"You are."
"Not."
Dani laughed and shook her head. "Stop it."
"Make me," Santana countered with a light laugh.
Dani turned to the Latina and quirked up an eyebrow. "Maybe I will."
"I dare you," Santana insisted, grinning. Dani rolled her eyes, and then stepped forward and pressed her lips firmly to Santana's. Her wife immediately pushed her tongue into Dani's mouth, and they both moaned simultaneously, feeling their lips vibrate against one another's.
When they pulled apart, Dani smirked and said, "You're cute."
"You're still going to argue that? Seriously? And how can you call me cute after that?" Santana demanded.
"Babe, you can be cute and hot at the same time," Dani insisted, smirking again.
"I give up trying to argue with you," Santana joked, shaking her head and finishing up in the bathroom.
"Good," Dani answered, walking past her wife and stripping off each piece of her clothing as she walked to her bed. By the time she turned and laid under the covers, she saw Santana staring at her with wide eyes. "You know, babe, that look you get when I get naked in front of you... it's never changed."
Santana wiped the look from her face and pouted. "I can't help it. You're gorgeous."
"Aww, boo," Dani cooed, holding back a chuckle at Santana's adorable pout. "C'mere."
"Oh, I will," Santana promised, stripping off her clothes and coming to lay with Dani in bed. And maybe to do a few more things as well.
