Chapter 20

Santana's POV

"Hang on a minute… you did what?" I hear Brittany say.

"I sent your letter back to Harvard confirming your place" I say before closing my eyes again but I'm soon awake when the bedside lamp gets turned on. "Baby, it's late" I say to Brittany.

"I don't care" Brittany responds. "Why would you send my letter away?"

"So the admissions board knew to expect you in the fall because I was worried you left it too late" I say, sitting up in bed against the headboard. "What's the problem babe?" I ask, I really don't understand why Brittany seems pissed off with me.

"The problem is that I wasn't going to go" Brittany states. "You had no authority to do that Santana."

"What do you mean by you weren't going to go?" I ask. "You told me that you were" I say. I'm so confused right now, I was sure that after Brittany and I had our discussion the general consensus was that since it was her dream she was going to go. "It's your dream babe so why would you turn it down?"

"Oh… I don't know, maybe because I love my girlfriend and my daughter" Brittany says. "It's just a tiny reason though" Brittany sarcastically adds.

"I am really confused baby, why does loving the baby and me prevent you from fulfilling your dream of going to Harvard" I ask.

"I'm not going without you both" Brittany says. "My future is with you and our daughter so if you two can't come with me then I refuse to go on my own." Brittany turns to face me. "I was only going in the first place because I thought you and the baby would be able to come with me but I can't take you away from your family."

"Britt I would go with you in a heartbeat but you are right, I can't just leave my brothers and sisters" I admit. "Jade couldn't go to university because she had to look after all of us so I can't exactly leave and rub it in her face plus I don't want to leave my siblings when we are in the situation we are" I sigh. "I don't know what to do Britt but what I do know is that you are going to Harvard, I refuse to let you regret not going for the rest of your life."

"I'm not going to enjoy Harvard the way I should if you are not there with me" Brittany says. "I don't want to do this without you, you me and the baby are a family so any decision I make I want it to involve the three of us." Moving away with the baby and Brittany would be amazing but I couldn't just leave my family. I couldn't leave Jade and Mario to bring up the others while I live it up without a care in the world but I know for a fact that if Jade knew I was staying for all of them then she would force me to leave because she just wants the best for me.

"We will get this sorted Britt" I assure my girlfriend. I don't know how we will do it but I will just need to figure something out. "Let's go to sleep just now because we're up early for school tomorrow."

"Ok" Brittany says, giving me a kiss on the lips. "Love you, sleep well."

"Love you too babe" I say as I move closer to Brittany so she can wrap her arm over my stomach, the way she always does. I used to feel lonely at night when I couldn't sleep because of the baby so Britt and I managed to persuade her parents and Jade to let us sleep over at one another's houses on school nights as well as weekends. The majority of the time Brittany just stays at my house but usually on Tuesdays she will either stay alone at her house or I will stay with her. It's getting to the point now where I am inseparable from Brittany, which I suppose isn't exactly healthy but sometimes I just need a Brittany filled hug.

"I have the perfect name" Brittany says as she drives us to the clinic for our second antenatal class.

"Really babe because you said that when you thought Melon was perfect" I ask.

"That was a joke" Brittany defends but I disagree I know she was deadly serious. "How about Joy?" Brittany asks. "What about that… huh?"

"We would be as well calling her Glee, means the same thing right?" I say jokingly but Brittany looks like she is seriously considering it.

"If that's a name you would like then we can call her that" Brittany says.

"I was joking baby" I say. "I don't like the name Joy either, so we will not be calling our child Glee or Joy."

"I don't mean to pressure you but we really need to think of a name, you are almost 34 weeks gone" Brittany says.

"I am well aware of that" I snap.

"Santana stop snapping at me, I understand that you hormones are changing because you are pregnant but that doesn't give you the right to snap and get angry at me for no reason" Brittany tells me. "You are snapping and getting angry at me once too often these days and I am not standing for it anymore. I understand you are going through a rough patch with your parents being back and everything that goes with it but I'm not another enemy, I'm your girlfriend who is on your side."

"I'm sorry" I apologise.

"I'm with you in every way possible. We're a partnership who is meant to work together not against one another" Brittany says as she pulls into a parking space. "I love you and that will never change."

"I love you too Britt" I reply as I loosen my safety belt before Brittany jumps out the car and rushes over to open the passenger door for me. Chivalry certainly ain't dead when it comes to my girlfriend. "Thanks babe" I say when Brittany helps me out of the car. I don't necessarily need help but I love how Brittany takes care of me. When we arrive Karen, the woman running the class, greets us at the door before telling us to take a seat until everyone else arrives. "These chairs are so hard" I say before looking at Brittany who seems to have found a seat with a cushion. "Can we swap seats babe?" I ask and Brittany shakes her head. "Please" I beg. "Let me have the chair with the cushion. I will do whatever you want in return."

"Like what?" Brittany asks raising an eyebrow.

"Like I said, anything you want" I say again, except this time more seductively. Brittany moves off of her seat and gestures for me to take hers. "Thank you baby" I say kissing Brittany. After everyone arrives Karen goes over a few details from last week and then she begins today's session.

"Ok let's all join up in our partners and resume the birthing position" Karen says. "Mats are at the side of the room so just grab one and then come and sit in front of me."

"This is so embarrassing Britt" I say as I get myself into position on the mat.

"Everyone is in the same boat babe, there is no reason to be embarrassed" Brittany tells me as she sits behind me slightly.

"Can you go at the front and I will sit behind you?" I ask and Brittany laughs.

"The whole point is for the pregnant woman to sit at the front with her partner behind her" Brittany says laughing. "I am not the pregnant one now am I?"

"I can't wait until the day you get pregnant and I get to make a fool of you" I reply.

"I wasn't making fun of you, I was merely laughing at your suggestion" Brittany says, kissing me on the cheek. "Are you sitting comfortably?" she asks and I nod. "Good stuff." Karen then goes over a demonstration and then teaches us different breathing methods we can use while giving birth. Once the birthing part is over Karen suggested we do a quick quiz on a few baby topics before we can leave for the night.

"Wow" I say a little surprised as we leave the clinic.

"What?" my girlfriend asks as she opens the car door for me and I get in.

"Just you" I reply when Brittany enters the car and turns on the ignition. "I've always known you were a nerd but boy oh boy you didn't half prove it tonight" I say and Brittany frowns so I continue. "Every time Karen asked the class a question your hand shot up in the air and you were always the first to reply, you got all the answers correct as well."

"You may view it as being nerdy but I view it as being organised" Brittany says. "The fact that I knew all the answers proves just how ready we are to become parents, we have an excellent knowledge base on all things pregnancy and baby at the moment."

"I am not criticising you negatively babe, I'm just pointing out that it may be a good idea to let someone else answer for a change" I say. "I love the fact that you know a lot and one of the things I find attractive about you is how intelligent you are however I don't want us to come across as a know-it-all."

"Karen asked a question to us all and I answered because I was entitled to do so" Brittany responds. "I don't really care if I came across that way, my main priority is to ensure we are ready to be mothers. It is not my fault no one else wanted to share an answer so I am not going to apologise, a few questions were asked, and I knew the answers so I politely raised my hand and voiced my answer since no one else seemed to speak up."

"Britt… chill baby, I didn't mean to offend you" I say. "I'm sorry."

"I know" Brittany says. "Want me to stop anywhere to grab some dinner or do you want to just eat at home?"

"Can we go to McDonald's?" I asked excitedly.

"Sure as long as you get a salad or something" Brittany replies.

"Britt that's not fair, why can't I get a burger or some McNuggets?"

"It is not the fat content or calories that bother me, it's because you don't know what they are putting in their food because it sure as hell isn't 100% beef or chicken" Brittany says.

"Babe… one burger, that's all I want" I say, pleading with Brittany using the biggest puppy dog eyes possible.

"Fine" Brittany sighs out. "You can have one burger and a cola but that's it."

"Thank you… thank you… thank you" I say kissing my girlfriend before she drives off. "You know you are like the best girlfriend ever, right?" I ask causing Brittany to blush. "You're like perfect in every way. You're beautiful, thoughtful, smart, funny, sexy…"

"I get the point" Brittany says cutting me off, blushing furiously.

"When I have this baby you are going to be in the room with me… right?" I ask.

"Of course, I'm your birthing partner" Brittany replies. "We are doing this whole thing together."

"Thank you" I say. "And remember, do not look below the waist unless you want to be scarred for life."

"My child being born does not bother me one bit, I actually think it would be nice for me to see our baby being born when it happens" Brittany says. "You can try and put me off all you want but if I want to look I will."

"Ok, don't say I didn't warn you though" I say but Brittany doesn't respond, instead she just kisses me. "Eyes on the road Pierce, you can get your kisses later when it is safer for you to have one."

"Are you ok sis?" Jade asks me as I walk into the kitchen before school.

"Yeah" I reply. "I just had some weird ass dream though, it was like super weird."

"What about?" Jade asks curious.

"It was like a sex dream but there were mythological creatures in it too" I answer. "Is that normal in pregnancy?"

"I've never been pregnant so I wouldn't know, however my friend Ashley when she had her baby had really quite strange dreams" Jade says. "What happened in your dream?"

"I'm not really sure I want to tell you about the content of it" I say smiling. "It would be like me telling you all about my sex life."

"I already know about your sex life" Jade says.

"You do not" I say.

"Santana I know more than you think" Jade tells me.

"Oh really, like what?" I challenge.

"Like you and Brittany… you…" Jade says.

"You know nothing Jade" I respond. "If you must know what my dream was about then there was a sex scene involved and near the end there was some sort of sheep/pig animal."

"Did you have sex with this sheep/pig?" Jade asks and I frown.

"No" I say offended. "It wasn't that much of a weird dream. I basically had a sex dream and a while later I saw a sheep/pig so there was no relationship between the two but it was definitely the one dream."

"Did Brittany feature in this dream?" Jade asks.

"Of course, who the fuck else would I be having sex with if not the girl I love?" I question back.

"You wouldn't tell me what happened in the dream so how was I supposed to know the dream was you having sex with your girlfriend?" Jade says.

"How about we leave this topic and eat our breakfast" I suggest before sitting down to a plate of frosted flakes.

A few minutes later I hear the front door open. "Hello….. Anyone home?" I hear Maria shout.

"Of course there is you dimwit it is 8am on a weekday" I whispers to myself but clearly Jade heard.

"Morning girls" Maria says, a little too cheerfully.

"What are you doing here?" I ask annoyed. "Do you not listen to anything we have to say regarding boundaries, if you want to see the kids you inform Mario or Jade and get them to give the ok?" I stand up and put my bowl of cereal at the side. "You can't turn up here when you feel like it, we were deadly serious when we said you and Paul need to stick to our terms."

"Babe have you seen my blue shirt?" Logan, Jade's boyfriend asks when he enters the kitchen, unaware that Maria is here. I don't think Logan has moved in with us but he has been staying here a lot recently. "Oh… sorry" Logan says when he sees Maria.

"It's in the washing hamper" I reply to Logan. "I saw it this morning, it looked like it was covered in Jam or something."

"Oh yeah, guess I will need to wear a white one to work" Logan says. "Brittany is in the living room by the way, the younger twins cornered her as soon as she walked through the door so I suggest you rescue her." I laugh slightly, Kieran and Macy seem to really have Brittany wrapped around their finger. It gets pretty annoying when you want Brittany alone.

"Yeah I will" I reply with a smile. "I will leave the front door unlocked for you to get on your way Maria preferably not via any of my siblings, we all need to get ready for school and stuff so we can't have you slowing us down." I then leave the kitchen and head to the living room. "Hey you two" I say to the three year old twins, gesturing for them to come closer to me. "I'm going to kiss Britty now" I say.

"Ooh… yuck" Kieran says screwing up his face before his twin sister does the same. They both then run out of the room.

"Always does the trick" I say triumphantly before moving closer to Brittany and wrapping my arms round her neck. "Good morning babe" I say with a smile.

"Good morning back at you beautiful" Brittany replies while moving a strand of my hair out of my face. "Can I take you on a date?" Brittany asks out of the blue.

"Course you can" I reply smiling.

"I know we go on dates occasionally but I want to take you on a proper date where I pick you up and we go out for the whole night and then I take you home" Brittany says. "I need to make you feel special."

"I am open to any date you want to take me on" I say. "I love you Brittany and I always will so please don't think that you need to go out of your way to please me because you are worried that you going to Harvard will harm our relationship." I grab Brittany's hands in mine. "You don't have to prove anything to me, being your girlfriend alone makes me feel special never mind the fact that I am carrying your baby or that you want to spoil me."

"Are we definitely alone?" I ask Brittany as she peppers kisses all over my face. We've just been out for dinner

"Yeah" Brittany replies before kissing me on the lips. "If you don't want to do this then its ok."

"I do" I say quickly. "I just get… I feel like…"

"You can tell me" Brittany says genuinely.

"I feel self-conscious… about my body because of the pregnancy" I admit. "What if the way I look when I am pregnant turns you off me, I don't want you to suddenly find me unattractive or not fancy me anymore."

"Look at me" Brittany says softly. "You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen; inside and out. The fact that you are pregnant with my baby makes you even more attractive to me. I love you."

"I love you too" I reply taking Brittany's lips with my own. I kiss Brittany passionately conveying all the feelings I have for her in that one kiss. "Take me to your room" I say quietly, pecking Brittany's lips once again before she leads me upstairs. As soon as we get to Brittany's room she closes the door before slowly walking towards me. Brittany gently lifts my top over my head and pulls my maternity jeans down leaving me in just my underwear, if I wasn't so turned on right now I would feel self-conscious about my granny underwear if you know what I mean. Being pregnant doesn't make me feel sexy at all when I have to wear huge panties and a sports bra.

Once Brittany is stripped down to just her bra and panties as well, she slowly lowers me onto the bed so I am lying on my back before she hovers above me, placing delicate kisses along my neck and chest. I think Brittany must feel as desperate as I do because she wastes no time before gently sliding her hand into my panties, circling around my clit a few times with her thumb. "If you feel uncomfortable or don't like what I am doing then tell me to stop right away" Brittany whispers before staring straight into my eyes and I just nod, giving Brittany a small smile.

Everything happened so fast and the next thing I know I can feel my orgasm approaching as Brittany continues to curl her fingers inside me, hitting all the right spots at the right times while maintaining her act of peppering my stomach with kisses. "That feels so good baby" I say breathlessly. When the words leave my mouth Brittany pushes her fingers into me, even deeper than before, and then I am releasing my orgasm as my girlfriend holds me tight.

"I love you babe" Brittany says kissing my hair. "I've got you" she repeats over and over as I ride out my orgasm.

"I… love you… too" I reply breathlessly, trying to regain some of my breath. I pull Brittany close for a kiss, dipping my tongue into her mouth feeling her velvety smooth warm tongue. We kiss for a while longer before we break apart and Brittany cuddles into me. "I can't wait for the day that I can finally have sex with my girlfriend without this bump getting in the way" I say and Brittany chuckles. "I'm serious babe, no offence to the baby or whatever but all I seem to be able to do is lie on my back and I can't even do that for long without getting back ache."

"Morning baby" I say as I get back under my covers after making my 5th bathroom stop since 6am. I kiss Brittany's cheek before lying in front of her, taking up my favourite position with my head tucked into my girlfriend's neck.

"Morning" Brittany replies sleepily. "Where we you?" Brittany asks in her sexy morning voice.

"Toilet" I reply. "It's only 8am and I've already been to the toilet five times. I get the impression our little girl thinks my bladder is a trampoline" I say before closing my eyes.

"I was a trampoline champion when I was eight years old" Brittany tells me. "I won the national under 10 competition."

"There's the reason our daughter loves trampolines" I say opening my eyes when I feel cold air hitting me. "Where are you going?" I ask my girlfriend as she stands up and puts my robe on. "It's Saturday, come back to bed baby. I want to get my cuddle on."

"I'm sorry babe but I promised to help Jade with the kids' breakfasts" Brittany says. "She said she was going out today so I offered to help out. I want to take a quick shower before everyone else gets up so I thought it would be wise to get up just now." I sigh before standing up and kissing Brittany. "We can cuddle later ok?" Brittany says and I nod. "Love you."

"Love you too" I reply and then Brittany disappears into the bathroom and I go down to the kitchen. "Looking smart guys" I say to Jade and Mario who are both wearing their Sunday best. "Where are you going dressed so smartly?"

"I've got an appointment with Susan's friend, you know the lawyer" Jade informs me. "She reckons I have a good chance of becoming the kids' legal guardian so Mario agreed to come with me."

"Are you sure this is what you want to do?" I ask. "I feel like you are missing out on the life you are supposed to have because of all of the responsibility put upon you" I say honestly. "I don't want you to feel like you have to do this because there is no other choice."

"I want to do this, I love you all and I don't want to try and be anyone's mom but I believe that this is the right choice" Jade says. "It will make things so much easier as well because there will be no complications when it comes to financial stuff or parents evenings."

"What about Logan?" I ask. Logan is an extremely nice guy but he only just started dating Jade so I am not entirely sure how he would react to his girlfriend suddenly gaining sole custody of seven kids, eight if you include me.

"I know I haven't been with him long Santana but you guys have always been my priority" Jade answers. "I love Logan but if he struggles with the fact that his girlfriend has to look after her siblings then he knows how to leave."

"I hate that you have to put your life on hold for all of us…" I start to say but Jade cuts me off.

"I admit that this not what I imagined my life would be like at 20 years old but that doesn't mean I hate it" Jade says. "I don't want to do this because I feel I need to but because I genuinely want to, I know we're all brothers and sisters but sometimes I can't help feeling like I am a mother sometimes." I understand what Jade is saying because she has been more of a mother to all of us than Maria has ever been.

"If you are sure about this then you have my support" I say before getting up and walking over to Jade to give her a hug and Mario joins in the hug too. "Britt and I can look after the kids while you're gone plus Jason and Marc are fifteen so I am sure they can give us some help if we need it."

"Thanks Santana" Jade says.

After fifteen minutes Brittany arrives in the kitchen and begins to make pancakes for when the others get up. "I wish my girlfriend could cook" Mario says. "She makes up for it in other department's right enough if you know what I mean" he adds winking.

"You're a pig sometimes" I tell my older brother.

"You're a bitch sometimes" he retorts playfully. "How Brittany puts up with you I will never know."

"Do you two always bicker in the mornings because the last time I saw you two in the kitchen together you were arguing over a banana?" Brittany asks.

"Pretty much" I reply. "We love each other really so it cancels the bickering out."

"You're part of the family now Brittany so you will get used to it" Jade tells Brittany and I can't help but smile. I love the fact that Brittany's part of our family now and in a few weeks we will have another addition to the family. Oh my god, I am going to have a baby in about four weeks. I feel a little faint, I need to sit down so that's exactly what I do.

"You ok babe" Brittany asks me.

"I'm going to be a mom" I say a little panicked.

"That's stating the obvious" Brittany says laughing.

"I'm almost 35 weeks pregnant" I say. I don't think I ever took the time to really believe that everything is real, for ages I felt like the baby was so far from being born that it felt surreal but now she is weeks from being born everything has suddenly hit me. "I am going to be a mom" I repeat.

"So am I" Brittany says bending down next to my chair. "Don't freak yourself out, everything is going to be fine" Brittany assures me before kissing me. The panic I feel subsides when Brittany's lips connect with mine. I'm going to be a mom and so is Brittany; I don't think I have ever felt happier. "I love you."

"Love you too" I reply to Brittany smiling.

A/N: Hope the chap was ok. The baby will be born either in the next chap or the one after. I've got a few names in my mind for the baby but if anyone has any requests let me know.
