New Glee episode...the only saving grace of 3x05 was Santana singing America. And I'm not just saying that because I love Naya...in a red dress...her hair...gosh that woman is gorgeous! I wish they had gone more into Mike's story. Also Britt's comment about losing her virginity was slightly disturbing and not in a funny way...rant over.
One last thing...I totally watched the preview of next week's episode...and...With the spoilers and...and...I just have so many feelings! *Runs away with an ugly crying face*
~~~ Planning Is Key ~~~
Quinn and Rachel were at the grocery store doing their weekly shop. The blonde was pushing the kart while the brunette grabbed the food and ticked it off of the shopping list. They were heading down the cereal aisle at the moment.
"Oh Quinn I've set aside some time for us tonight for us to...reconnect and help you get over your fears" Rachel smiled at her wife before she headed over to the bland and boring cardboard crap Quinn had to eat now.
"You're scheduling our...sexy times?" Quinn asked a little embarrassed and whispering that last part
Rachel nodded and continued to look at the contents of the cereal box she had in her hand.
"That way we can control things. If we just do it spontaneously then it might freak you out so for now we plan and we go slow" Rachel then added. She put the cereal into the kart and began to move along
Quinn didn't look all that impressed…at both what Rachel was suggesting and the cereal. She sighed longingly as they passed the Crunchy Nut Cornflakes in all their honey and sugar and nutty goodness.
"It'll be kind of like...back when we first started dating." Rachel told her as they headed down the next aisle
Quinn just groaned at this.
"No come on Quinn let's think of this as...an adventure!"
Quinn just raised her eyebrow
"Well I mean...it'll be like...we're rediscovering each other. Maybe this will be a good thing all round." Rachel tried to sound positive.
Once again Quinn wasn't as enthused as her wife.
"We'll start with kissing, then light touching...then more touching" Rachel smirked
"Rach! Stop we're in public someone might hear you" Quinn looked horrified
"Sweetie we're in the health food aisle nobody is around to hear us" Rachel replied
Quinn just sighed
"I don't know Rach...it sounds like a good idea but..."
"But what?"
"I'm 50! And we're going back to what teenagers do! It's humiliating" Quinn pouted
"Well it's important for us to take these small steps to help with...our situation" Rachel told her
"You mean my situation" Quinn grumbled
"Sweetheart stop being so negative and grumpy. I know you're frustrated but we will get through this. One step at a time." Rachel reassured her as she picked up some healthy crap that Quinn had no idea what it was.
Quinn hated food shopping now after her heart attack. It just made her so sad when she had to pass the Mint Milano's and not buy any.
~~~ Something New ~~~
Ben was sitting on Daisy's bed while the owner of said bed was on the phone trying to calm her roommate Rose down. She was apparently going to meet her boyfriend. After hanging up Daisy sat down next to Ben with a sigh.
"Sorry about that. Rosie can be a little...dramatic at times" She chuckled
Ben just smiled and nodded.
"So you said you wanted to talk" She said
"Yeah I um...I wanted to...Daisy are we like together, together o-or what?" He nervously asked
"Oh um...well I guess we kinda are. I mean I know I told you that I didn't want anything too serious but...I guess we are" She replied with a nod
"Ok...it's just...it kinda feels like we're more like...friends, we haven't…really…you know…do you get what I mean?" He asked
Daisy nodded and then smirked
"That's just because I was waiting for you to make a move"
Ben looked a little shocked
"Oh...sorry" He replied a little sheepish.
"Don't worry...we can just make up for lost time" She smiled
Daisy quickly moved to straddle Ben's legs before she leaned down to kiss him. They soon began to heatedly make out with each other. Ben was kind of a novice in this area of physical contact his only experience being when he was 16 and he had that encounter with Charlie. He wasn't really sure where to put his hands so they just rested on Daisy's hips.
The girl in his lap just smirked at his nervousness. She could tell that he probably didn't have much experience. So she grabbed one of his hands and placed it on her chest letting him know it was ok to touch her. Daisy began to gently rock her hips as they continued to kiss.
This wasn't exactly what Ben had in mind when he came over to Daisy's dorm room. But he wasn't really going to complain.
Daisy ran her hand down his chest and began to undo his jeans. She slid her hand into his pants giving him a gentle squeeze. Ben wasn't exactly prepared for that and so he jumped in surprise when she did it. Pulling back a little Daisy looked into his eyes.
"You ok?" She asked
Ben knew his voice was going to fail him so he just nervously nodded.
"Ben can I ask you something and please don't be offended" Daisy replied
Once again Ben just nodded
"Have you...have you ever been with a girl before?" She asked
Ben looked away and shifted uncomfortably at her question.
"Hey it's ok. I was just asking. It's not a bad thing" She quickly replied
Ben just continued to avoid eye contact.
"We don't have to have sex...we can do other stuff if you want. Just relax ok" Daisy replied
Ben reluctantly nodded and Daisy just gave him a reassuring smile before she leant back down to kiss him.
"Trust me" She whispered
Daisy moved off of Ben's lap and knelt down before him as she finished undoing his pants. She helped him pull them down to his ankles and she went to remove his briefs too when Ben stopped her.
"Wait"
"What is it?" She asked
"I don't want to do this" He replied
"Really? Because from where I'm kneeling it really looks like you do" She replied as she stared at his crotch
Ben nervously chuckled and shook his head
"No I mean…I do…w-want to do this just…not like this" He replied
Daisy looked confused
"I don't understand"
"I…I don't want you on your knees…I…I think it's degrading" He hesitantly replied
"Oh" Daisy was a little surprised.
She had never been with a guy who ever cared about that.
"You're really one of a kind Benjamin" She smiled up at him
Ben just blushed and gave her a weak smile
"Alright…I have an idea." Daisy stated as she stood up
"Lay down" She told him
Ben gulped slightly but did as she suggested as Daisy climbed up onto the bed with him.
~~~ It's All About The Teasing ~~~
Sofia sat there trying to think of a way to get Grace to crack. She was already walking around with no top on showing off her abs, tormenting the poor Latina. She needed a counter attack. Sofia sat at her desk looking at her laptop monitor that had the screensaver going. It was a slideshow of random photos. Currently it was some of the Halloween photos and then one photo popped up which gave Sofia her brilliant idea.
It was of Grace and Sofia it had made the Latina laugh when she first saw it because it had Grace hugging Sofia from behind with her hands lovingly groping Sofia's boobs. Both girls were laughing in the photo but Sofia knew better. If her weakness were abs. Then Grace's weakness was boobs.
Grace was in the kitchen starting to make lunch. She was going with tacos today. It was her not so subtle attempt to taunt Sofia just a little bit more.
She was in the middle of chopping up the salad when her fiancée...her very beautiful and goddess like fiancée came walking out of their bedroom and into the kitchen wearing only her short-shorts and her stilettos. Meaning she was completely naked otherwise.
Grace stopped all movement as she watched Sofia walk up to the fridge and slightly bend over to grab a bottle of water. She stood there with the fridge door open for a few more seconds to get the desired effect until she turned around smirking at Grace.
"You know it's really warm today." Sofia sighed as she brought her water bottle up to her forehead to 'cool herself down'
Grace just let out a small squeak. Her eyes were glued to Sofia boobs or more specifically to her hard nipples.
"Uggh seriously it's really warm for November. You don't mind if I cool off right?" Sofia asked as she undid the cap on the bottle
Once again Grace just let out a weird strangled noise. Her eyes went wide and her jaw dropped when Sofia brought the bottle up and slowly tipped some of the water onto her face and chest. Grace didn't even know she was moving but before she could even think about stopping herself she was pulling Sofia in close and kissing her...or eating her face off more like it. Her hands immediately went to the Latina's boobs. Sofia responded just as fast as she shoved Grace up against the counter and kissed her back full force. The Latina helped Grace sit up onto the counter and then stood between her legs which wrapped themselves around Sofia's waist pulling her in close. Grace kissed and licked her way down Sofia's neck down to her chest taking in one of her fiancée's nipples into her mouth making the brunette cry out, her fingers threading themselves in Grace's hair and holding her head there.
"I totally win" Sofia smirked
As soon as Grace heard that she quickly pulled away and pushed Sofia out of her personal space. The Latina's smirk dropped from her face.
"What is it?" She asked
"That was mean! You tricked me!" Grace accused still panting lightly
Sofia smirked and tried to look innocent
"I would never"
"You're half naked! And…and the water!" Grace yelled
"It was hot today" Sofia replied
"Go put your top back on. And you did not win! We didn't have sex so the bet is still on." Grace told her
"Not for much longer" Sofia sang as she headed back to their bedroom
Grace had to pretty much shove her head into the freezer to cool off.
~~~ Two Ex-Cheerleaders ~~~
Sofia was not impressed that Becky wanted to catch up and talk. Well on the outside she wasn't impressed but on the inside she was dying to know what has been happening with her and Hannah. Becky also wasn't impressed with having to spend time with the Latina but then she really needed some advice. Theirs was a strange friendship.
"So what is it this time?" Sofia sighed
"Hannah and I have a date tomorrow" Becky replied
"Yeah so what do you want me to do about it? Bake you a cake?"
"Well you could be a little more compassionate I know it's hard for you to act like a human being and all" Becky replied
"Ugh fine…so have you fucked her yet?" Sofia asked
Becky just rolled her eyes and then sighed sadly
"No"
"Why the hell not? You two were practically drooling all over each other at the Halloween party."
"I know and we nearly did have sex that night but then we decided to wait and make our first time more special."
"Pfft" Was Sofia's response.
"You're a bitch you know that?"
Sofia just gave her a smile
"I mean technically it won't be the first time after our separation" Becky admitted
Sofia looked surprised and cocked her eyebrow up at that now she was interested
"Now I'm intrigued tell me more"
"It was about two weeks after I moved out. She came over to drop off some of my stuff and we got into this huge argument and we just sorta..."
"Angry sex" Sofia nodded
"Epic angry sex. I mean it was so..."
"I don't want details" Sofia quickly butted in
"We were so detached like it wasn't even us" Becky continued sadly
Sofia sighed. Deep in the recesses of her heart she did feel sorry for Becky and she wanted to see her happy again. Like proper happy like she used to be.
"I just want it to be special. Meaningful." Becky sighed
Sofia nodded and for once she didn't say a snarky comeback.
"Look…you guys are meant to be ok…everything will work out. Just don't stress about it, just let it happen…and please whatever you do…don't fucking cry like a pussy." Sofia replied
~~~ It's All About The Pleasing ~~~
It's Day One of Rachel's plan on getting the old sex-crazed Quinn back. They are currently up in their bedroom lying on their bed. Quinn is nervously lying on her back while Rachel is half on the bed and half on Quinn.
"Ok you ready?" Rachel asked with a sweet smile.
"I guess" Quinn mumbled as she fiddled with the zipper on her jacket.
Rachel placed her hands over her wife's to get her to stop and to calm down.
"Today we won't go any further than kissing and light touching. Don't worry so much sweetie" Rachel replied
Quinn just nodded and Rachel gave her a sweet smile
The brunette leaned down and gently kissed her wife. It was all very tender and loving. It was light and innocent. Rachel took Quinn's bottom lip into her mouth and gently nipped at it and then soothed it with her tongue. The brunette was surprised but also pleased that Quinn swiped her tongue along her lips wanting to deepen the kiss and Rachel let her.
Rachel knew her wife would get into it as soon as she took that first jump. She just needed to get out of that initial fear.
Their kiss continued to heat up and Rachel couldn't stop her hand from moving up her wife's stomach towards her breasts. The blonde beneath her began to squirm and whimper.
"Rachel stop" Quinn mumbled
"You're doing great Quinn" Rachel quickly replied then went back to kissing her and letting her hand cup Quinn's right boob.
"No, Rachel stop please" Quinn replied in panic and gently pushed her wife off her.
Rachel complied as she got off of her. Quinn sat up and rubbed her hands over her face in frustration.
"Quinn?"
"I'm sorry" The blonde whispered
"It's ok...it's the first try and you did really well"
"Rachel I'm not a child." Quinn huffed
"I know...because I would not be doing what I was just doing with a child" Rachel replied
Quinn gave her a small smile
"What happened Quinn? Why did you stop me?" Rachel softly asked
The blonde let out a long sigh before she responded. She grabbed Rachel's hand and placed it over her heart. The brunette could feel her wife's heart beating a mile a minute
"You feel that?" She asked
Rachel just nodded
"That's what you do to me. I got excited...I've missed being with you but I'm still scared of actually being with you...my body is ready...more than ready but my head...and my heart…"
"We'll keep practicing. We'll get there. I promise" Rachel told her.
~~~ Worry ~~~
The next day found Sofia sat at the lunch table looking over some files and reports because apparently Billy was going to test them...bastard. Sofia had been having a hard time with what happened the day before when Maya came to the emergency room. She didn't know what to do. Legally she had to keep her mouth shut but morally she was struggling not to just call Toby up and tell him everything. She couldn't even tell Grace which was really difficult.
Her eyes swept over the file of Melanie Walker. Sofia was a little confused because she didn't remember that name. She only had six patients that she assisted with. Thinking she must have taken the wrong report she quickly read through the injuries when she realized that it was Maya's file. She had given them a different name. Sofia sighed.
She sat there contemplating what she should do. Maya used to be a good friend and she hated to think that she was going through this. Sofia picked up her phone and waited for the other end to answer.
"Toby...you free this afternoon?...yeah sure...see you then"
Sofia hung up and sat there a feeling of dread overwhelming her. But she figured if she was going to possibly ruin her career she might as well do it for the right reason. She couldn't live with herself if something happened to Maya and she didn't do anything to stop it.
That afternoon Sofia met up with Toby at the small cafe near his work. The blonde haired man looked worried when he saw Sofia's sad face.
"Sofia what's up? Is everything ok? Is it about Grace?" He asked
"No...Toby, Gracie's fine this is...something else" Sofia replied
"What is it then?"
"I can't say" The Latina sighed
Toby looked confused
"Toby I could get into really big trouble for this"
"For what?"
"I had a patient the other day...and um...Toby I think you should go see Maya" Sofia replied sadly
"What happened?" He asked trying not to get angry
"I can't say"
"Sofia!" He yelled
"Toby I'm sorry ok I wish I could but I can't. I could lose everything. I've already told you too much, just...go and see her." Sofia replied
Getting angry Toby stood up almost knocking his chair over.
"I swear I will kill that bastard if he has touched her." He hissed
"Toby calm down" Sofia stood up too and looking around at the other people who were starting to stare.
"I'm going over there" He stated and began to walk off but Sofia quickly followed and stopped him
"Not like this you're not. Toby if he is beating her then the last thing she needs is another angry man coming at her"
Toby stopped and sighed nodding in agreement.
"This isn't supposed to be happening to her. To anyone." He softly cried
"I know" Sofia sadly agreed
~~~ Mother & Son ~~~
Ben sat down next to his Ma in the living room. The Latina was currently going over some paperwork for a case she was working on. She could sense that her son wanted to talk about something because he was fidgeting and he looked a little nervous. Santana put her folder down, took her glasses off and looked at the blonde man sitting next to her.
"What's up Benny?"
"Nothing" He replied quickly
Santana just raised her eyebrow. Ben let out a sigh.
"I need...I need to talk to someone about something" He told her
"Because that's not cryptic at all" Santana replied sarcastically
"Mom is at work and it would be too embarrassing to talk to Toby and Sofia about this."
"Oh so I'm like the last resort?" Santana asked feeling slightly hurt by that.
Ben and Santana's relationship had drifted a little as he grew up. He never really took to his Ma's humour and sometimes Santana just couldn't understand why her son was so sensitive all the time. But they still loved each other and they were close but just not as close as Santana was with Sofia.
"No, my last resort was Aunty Q" Ben admitted
Santana gave him a questioning look
"Well she sometimes says weird things and tells me stuff I really don't want to know about" He admitted
Santana just chuckled and nodded
"So what did you need to talk about?"
"Um...well it's...it's a-about s-sex" He replied as his cheeks started to burn.
"Oh...ok then. Wait didn't your mom already have the sex talk with you?" Santana asked a little panicked
"Yes she...I know...I know h-how it...what h-happens and stuff but...I wanted to talk about...the other part of it" Ben stuttered
"What other part?" Santana asked
"Feelings" Ben answered
What is with the Pierce's and their feelings? Santana sighed and contemplated how she was going to handle this. If it was Sofia asking her this she would just pay her out and then Sofia would pay her out and somehow the question would be answered. But Ben isn't Sofia. So Santana had to be a little more sensitive to his feelings. She could tell this was a hard topic for him to bring up.
"Ok well um...what is it that's on your mind?" She asked
"Things between me and Daisy have...progressed and I...I don't know what I should do" He replied
"Progressed how?"
Ben's cheeks pretty much turned bright red instantly as he looked away. Santana just smirked but didn't say anything.
"Alright so things are getting...intense and you want to maybe do more?" Santana replied
"I don't know..."
"Ben I know this is kinda embarrassing to talk about with your Ma but...have you guys gotten to the point where you just want to rip each other's clothes off and just do it?" Santana then asked
"Kinda I guess...but it feels different to the other time" Ben replied
Santana looked confused
"What other time?"
Ben looked up and decided whether or not to tell his Ma.
"The only time I ever really felt like I was ready was when I was with Charlie"
Santana now looked really confused. So Ben explained.
~~~ 2039 ~~~
It was a cold and rainy night as Ben got ready for bed. He loved being at the dancing school he was so glad his mothers let him go not just because he loved to dance but it got him away from the kids at his school who would still torment him. He loved that he was around other people who loved ballet just as much as he did. The only down side was that he missed living with his family. He missed his moms terribly. He missed Sofia. He missed everyone but he especially missed Charlie. Sure he got to go home on weekends and holidays and he talked to them on the phone all the time but it wasn't the same.
He grabbed his toothbrush and headed for the shared bathroom. He was going to be by himself tonight because his roommate Clint had to go home because he had to go to a wedding back in Texas.
After brushing his teeth Ben wandered back to his dorm room and nearly had a heart attack when he found a very cold and drenched Charlie Berry-Fabray standing there waiting for him.
Ben quickly closed the door and grabbed a towel from his draw and wrapped it around the shivering girl.
"Charlie...what's going on?" He gently asked
She just sniffed and held onto her best friend.
"You need you get out of these wet clothes you'll get sick" He told her
She just nodded. Ben let go of Charlie and quickly pulled out some spare track pants and jumper for her to wear. They would be ten times too big but that's all he had.
"Here" He placed them on the bed and waited for her to move.
Charlie picked up the clothes and then just looked at him expectantly. A little confused at first Ben quickly understood. He couldn't help the blush that appeared on his cheeks.
"Sorry" He mumbled before he turned around to give her some privacy.
Charlie quickly got out of her damp clothes and into Ben's. She looked like a little lost lamb in all those clothes.
"You can turn around" She told him.
Ben did and then took her wet clothes and placed them into a plastic bag for her and trying not to think about the fact that Charlie was naked underneath his clothes or look at her bra and underwear that were currently in his hands. Charlie took a seat on his bed and just watched him move around the room for a few minutes. He finally came to sit down next to her.
"Charlie what's going on?" He asked once more
"Frank broke up with me." She whispered
"Oh...Charlie I'm sorry"
"I feel like such an idiot Ben" Charlie cried
The blonde boy wrapped his arm around her shoulder for some comfort.
"Why?" He asked
"Because! I let him...I gave myself up to him when I should have waited. God why didn't I just wait? He told me we were over because I didn't want to sleep with him again." She replied as her tears fell
"I wasn't ready...It wasn't right. I should have listened to you. He wasn't the one I should have lost it too. I'm so sorry Ben you must be so disappointed in me. I've ruined everything!" She was full on crying at this point.
Ben pulled her in for a hug. Yes it had hurt when Charlie nervously told Ben that she was going to sleep with Frank. He tried to tell her that she should wait but she didn't and now it ended up being one of her biggest regrets.
"Never" He softly told her and then placed a gentle kiss to her head.
They sat like that for several minutes as Charlie cried. Once her tears had subsided Ben handed her a tissue and got up to get her a glass of water.
"Can I stay with you tonight?" Charlie asked
"What about your moms? Do they know where you are?" He asked
"I told them I'd be staying over at a friend's house" She replied looking down and feeling terrible about sorta lying to her mothers.
Ben just nodded
"Thank you...for being...so sweet to me. You're my best friend in the whole world. I love you so much Ben" Charlie softly mumbled as Ben sat back down next to her
"You too" He smiled gently
Charlie smiled back though it was only a small smile.
"You're an amazing girl Charlotte. You're smart and talented and so beautiful. Frank didn't deserve you" He told her with certainty.
Charlie just looked up at her best friend and couldn't help but feel her heart swell at his words. And then he did something very unexpected. Ben leaned over and kissed her.
Charlie was startled. Ben had never kissed a girl before and he had never thought his first kiss would actually be with Charlie. He wasn't really sure what made him do it but his head became cloudy and all he could think about were Charlie's lips on his. After their brief kiss Charlie pulled away a little shocked at what he had just done.
"Charlie...I...I'm sorry" He whispered
But Charlie didn't want it to end so she just leant back in and kissed him again it made her feel warm and safe and she didn't want to stop that feeling. This time Ben was the startled one and it took a few moments before he started to kiss her back. Neither was sure who deepened the kiss but they both knew it was Charlie who moved to straddle Ben's hips.
The pair continued to kiss it was surprising that they hadn't come up for air yet. Ben didn't really know where he should put his hands so they just rested on Charlie's waist while Charlie wrapped her arms around his neck.
The kiss started out slow and experimental but it soon turned into something a whole lot more. Neither had ever experienced this feeling before. It was exciting and passionate as it turned heated.
Charlie began to unbutton Ben's night shirt and soon enough that was gone hitting the floor with a dull thud. Ben experimentally shifted his hands up under Charlie's top to feel her heated skin that lay beneath. He then helped Charlie remove her top leaving them both topless and panting heavily from the lack of oxygen as they rested their foreheads together. Ever the gentleman even in a moment like this Ben avoided looking down and never moved his eye line lower than Charlie's neck.
Charlie took Ben's hand into her own and slowly moved it up towards her chest. But just before any physical contact was made the two locked eyes with each other and realization hit both of them on where this was headed. If she was totally honest with herself which she would never be...not until several years later Charlie didn't want to stop. But Ben would never forgive himself if he let things continue. Charlie was emotionally vulnerable right now and he could never take advantage of that no matter how much he wanted to do this with Charlie.
"We should get to sleep" He mumbled as he let go of Charlie's hand and then handed the girl her top back.
"Ben...I..."
"I'll go get an extra blanket. It's going to be a cold night" Ben replied as he sat up and turned his back to give the girl some privacy in putting her top back on.
Ben grabbed his own top and put it back on then grabbed the blanket from his roommate's bed. He then turned back around to find Charlie clothed again. She already started to feel incredibly guilty for what had happened between the two of them. She looked up at her friend and then blushed and looked away again. Ben was a little confused then noticed the very visible tent in his pants feeling embarrassed her placed the blanket in front of him to hide.
"Sorry" He mumbled softly
Charlie shook her head and looked back up at her friend.
"No I'm sorry Ben. I shouldn't have...I'm really sorry" She whispered
"It's ok...we should just get some sleep. It's late" He replied as he walked back over and placed the blanket onto the bed.
Charlie just nodded and got into bed. When Ben didn't move she looked at him questioningly.
"I um...I have to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back" He mumbled before he quickly left the room.
When he did come back Charlie was already fast asleep which he figured was a good thing. He carefully got into bed and turned the light off. He was both saddened and happy that Charlie's arm instinctively found its way wrapping around his waist as she unconsciously snuggled up to him...
"Wow Ben I...I don't know what to say. Why didn't you ever tell me about this?" Santana asked still a little shocked.
The young man just shrugged
"We agreed to never tell anyone about it and we never really talked about it ever again." He replied
"But Benny...you were in love with her and she used you" Santana replied feeling angry.
For the first time ever Santana was not a fan of the youngest Fabray.
"No Ma...it's not like that. She was really upset and she just needed comfort. It never happened again"
"Ben, you're a sweet guy and I think all those romantic Broadway shows you love so much have clouded your mind because the truth of the matter is that she took advantage of you."
"No she didn't"
"Yes she did. Come on son you know I love Charlie I love her as if she was my own just like I love Grace and Toby but she was in the wrong here."
"Ma I wanted it to happen. I took advantage of her just as much as she did." Ben replied
Santana sighed
"Do you still have feelings for her?" She then asked
"I'll always have feelings for her" Ben simply replied.
"But what about Daisy?"
Ben shrugged
"I like her. She's fun and smart. She's pretty" He replied
"Yeah but do you think you could develop feelings for her?"
"I don't know Ma"
"Well then I think you should wait before you have sex with her." Santana replied
Ben looked a little surprised by that.
"Really? I would have thought you'd tell me to just do it already." Ben said
"Look, Ben. I know you and I are two very different people with very different ideals and values or whatever. But you are still my baby boy. I know how important losing your virginity is to you. I know that you want it to be with someone you love and for it to be meaningful. I get that and I respect that. I always have. But my Lopez side comes out to play more often than not and I say things that I probably shouldn't. It doesn't mean that it's what I truly think." Santana gently told him.
Ben just nodded
"I'm really proud of you Ben. Despite having me for a mother you still turned out to be an amazing man. Your one of my proudest achievements" Santana added
"Thanks Mami" Ben smiled softly
"Sofia on the other hand..." Santana smirked and Ben just laughed
"You know you're pretty amazing too Ma" He replied
"Well I try" She smiled
"Mom on the other hand..." He added
"She's just awesome at everything" Santana finished
Ben just nodded.
"Thanks for the talk" He replied
"Anytime" Santana smiled
Ben pulled his Ma into a hug Santana kissed his cheek and hugged him back.
"Can...can this just stay between us?" Ben then asked hesitantly
"It'll be our secret" Santana replied with a smile.
~~~ Put A Ring On It ~~~
Hannah had just got back from dropping the boys off at Sofia and Grace's place so she and Becky could have the place for themselves that night. The Aussie had planned a romantic meal for her and Becky. It was clearly obvious that something was going to happen tonight. They had been dancing around it for a while now and that night on Halloween proved that they were so ready to just do it and move on with their lives being together and being happy.
Hannah began setting everything up for when Becky arrived. She would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous. That run in with Valerie really made Hannah think. Especially about the whole ring thing. Hannah was ready to move on and forgive her wife.
Becky arrived seven o'clock on the dot she was still nervous and her talk with Sofia wasn't all that helpful because all she could hear was her annoying voice telling her not to cry.
Hannah greeted her at the door with a sweet kiss and led her into the kitchen Becky couldn't help but laugh at Hannah's romantic meal.
"Beer and pizza?" She chuckled
"Food of Champions" Hannah smirked
"It's perfect" Becky replied
They spent the next hour or so eating and talking and laughing and making out. It was like the good old days back when they first moved in together and Max was four years old running around the house naked because he decided that he hated wearing clothes that month. He denies it all now of course. Soon enough the pizza was gone but the beer was untouched as Hannah and Becky made out on the couch.
"Wanna go to bed?" Hannah asked
"You sure?" Becky asked
"Very sure"
They finally made it to their bedroom with Becky closing the door with her foot as she moved Hannah towards their bed. It felt good to think of it as their bed again and not just Hannah's bed. The blonde woman gently guided her wife to the bed and straddled her legs once Hannah had sat down. The brunette helped Becky take her shirt off. This time there were no buttons and so they got the task done swiftly and easily. By now both women were topless and on their way to being completely without clothes but before that could happen Hannah stopped.
"What is it? What's wrong?" Becky asked with worry.
"I…"
"Hannah, honey your kinda scaring me here" Becky replied when her wife failed to say something
"Is this too much too fast? Did I do something wrong?" Becky continued to ask getting more and more worried
Hannah shook her head and then placed her hand over Becky's mouth to make her stop talking.
"You didn't do anything wrong." She finally spoke
Becky then asked with her eyes 'What is it then?'
"I just…I love you Becky. More than I have loved anyone. I want to spend my whole life with you and our kids. We've been through a lot but I know that we can make this work because you're my soul mate, my best friend…and my wife." Hannah spoke softly
She let her hand fall from Becky's mouth and went straight to her pocket of her jeans.
"You're wedding vows" Becky mumbled
Hannah nodded and then placed something into Becky's hand. The blonde looked down and sitting there in her right hand was Hannah's wedding ring. The Aussie held her left hand out and waited. Becky didn't want to cry but apparently her tear ducts had a mind of their own because there she was crying. She pulled herself together and gently slid the ring onto her wife's finger where it belongs. Once it was in place Becky couldn't hold back her sobs so Hannah quickly wrapped her arms around her wife and held her while she cried.
"I love you Becky. I forgive you." Hannah kept whispering
"I love you too Hannah…Can we have sex now?" Becky mumbled through her sobs
Hannah just laughed and nodded
~~~ A Closet Fanilow? ~~~
The awesome foursome were sitting around the Lopez-Pierce living room that evening with their coffees and teas as they caught up on what's been happening.
"And then she accused me of flirting with Grace! I mean come on!" Santana pouted
"Well you two do have this weird thing between you. Which can be slightly disturbing as she is my daughter" Rachel replied
"What? No we don't. We just joke around! Ugh nobody gets us" Santana huffed
"Sanny stop sulking and bringing it up. You and Ducky sorted it out so just leave it at that" Brittany told her.
"Whatever" The Latina grumbled
"This isn't going to turn into one of those moments where you bring out Dorky Santana are you?" Quinn asked
"Shut the fuck up Fabray" Santana hissed
"You are extra pouty today" Brittany added
"Because if it is then please let me get my earplugs." Quinn grinned
"I swear to god shut up" The Latina growled
"What are you talking about?" Rachel asked
Brittany was just sitting there giggling.
"Wow Quinn you managed to keep your promise. I would have so told Rachel if I was you" Brittany chuckled
"Britt!" Santana whined she was so not impressed
"What? It was funny" The blonde shrugged
"It never happened is what it is"
"Ok someone please tell me what you are all talking about" Rachel asked
"Well..." Brittany smirked
~~~ 2011 ~~~
Santana stormed into her bedroom slamming the door behind her. She was angry and pissed off and sad at the same time. She couldn't understand why Brittany couldn't just listen to her. She just wants her to be happy. She doesn't want the blonde to lose her family because of her. Santana had already lost her own family she didn't want Brittany to have to go through the same. And if that meant they wouldn't get married well...she couldn't think about it anymore tonight. It just hurt too much.
The Latina flicked on the small bedside lamp and turned her iPod on. At times like this she would turn to music to get her away from her troubles if only for a while. She began to aimlessly wander around her room as she pouted about her fight with Brittany.
A new song came on as Santana looked out the window it was only the instrumental version of the song but she knew what it was straight away. There was a little bit of rain falling but you could still see the stars through some of the black clouds. This just gave Santana the sudden urge to burst into song...probably Berry's influence. Santana needed to limit her time around the hobbit from now on. Stupid Quinn and her stupid feelings.
So for no real reason, Santana just started singing along to the music.
"I remember all my life. Raining down as cold as ice. Shadows of a girl. A face through a window. Crying in the night. The night goes into morning..."
The Latina opened her balcony doors and belted her song to the star filled sky.
"The pain is calling oh Brittany! Well you came and you gave without taking, but I sent you away oh Brittany! Well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking. And I need you today OH BRITTANY!"
Santana was practically shouting and doing her ugly crying face at this point. She was glad Quinn and her mother weren't home right now because that would be like...super awkward and super embarrassing.
"Sanny?" Brittany asked as she stood on the grass under her bright yellow umbrella in the backyard of the Fabray house.
Santana's eyes went wide and she had never felt so embarrassed in her life.
"Hello Brittany" She quickly replied trying to act like she was not just caught singing
"Whatcha doing?" Brittany asked with a small smirk
"Nothing...just...looking at the stars" Santana replied
"The stars?"
"Mmhhmm yep...the stars" The Latina replied sheepishly
Brittany just chuckled and shook her head.
"What are you doing here Britt?"
"I'm moving in" Brittany replied simply
Santana looked very confused right now.
"What do you mean?"
"I told my parents about us getting married I told them that nothing will stop me from being with the one I love...they didn't really take it well and so..." Brittany replied sadly with a small shrug
Santana sighed she never wanted this to happen.
"I know what you said before about you not wanting me to lose my family. But Santana you are my family. I can't lose you." Brittany added
Santana couldn't help the small smile that appeared and the warm fuzzy feelings that crept into her heart.
"Brittany...babe I'm so sorry"
"It's ok...Judy said I can move in" The blonde replied
Santana just nodded sadly. Then her eyes went wide.
"Wait...Judy's not here is she?"
Brittany couldn't hold back her grin as she nodded. And then Judy and Quinn came out from the shadows with matching grins.
"Ah for fucks sake you guys heard me sing didn't you?" Santana sighed
The two Fabray women just nodded trying in vain not to laugh.
"Barry Manilow...Santana? Really?" Quinn cackled
"Shut up!" Santana growled
Brittany just smiled and climbed up the side of the house to Santana's balcony and wrapped her up into a big hug all the while still holding her umbrella...
Rachel, Quinn and Brittany cracked up laughing. There were even some tears. Santana just sat there sulking and glaring at them all.
"Oh...my god! Barry Manilow?" Rachel got out between her laughing
"Shut up Man-Hands" Santana grumbled
"Sanny you and I both know that Rachel's hands are anything but manly" Brittany replied still giggling
Santana just continued to sit there and grumble.
"What the fuck are you looking at Q?" She then snapped
Quinn just gave her a smirk.
"Oh nothing, its just...I remember all my life" Quinn sang
"Raining down as cold as ice" Rachel added
"Fuck yous all" Santana got up and stormed out while the other three just cracked up laughing again.
"So how come you never told me this before?" Rachel asked as she wiped a tear that had fallen
"She threatened me if I did" Quinn replied
"But that's never stopped you before"
"I know but this time she threatened to tell you that it was me who broke your limited edition signed Barbra Streisand doll." Quinn replied.
Rachel's face dropped. Quinn had figured enough time has passed that she could finally admit that she had broken it...she was wrong.
"That was you!" Rachel yelled in horror
"Um...y-yeah" Quinn mumbled looking a little scared.
"You told me a wild dog came into your house and broke it in the middle of the night and that you tried to save it. You even had a scratch mark on your arm to prove it!" Rachel replied getting angry
"Well...I...Come on Rach that was years ago"
Rachel sighed and took a deep breath then nodded.
"Your right...your right it has been years...decades even...three decades of your LIES!" Rachel yelled then stormed off.
Quinn sat there dumbfounded while Brittany just reached over and patted her sympathetically on the back.
~~~ You Hit Me Once, I Hit You Back ~~~
Toby had left Ally with his moms that night as he drove up to Maya's apartment. He turned his car off and just sat there for a few moments contemplating what he was going to do. All the signs pointed to something bad going on in Maya and Alex's relationship. Something incredibly bad if she had to go to hospital. It made his blood boil at what that ass was getting away with. So without wasting any more time Toby got out of his car and headed over to Maya's apartment door. He was about to knock when he heard something that sounded like a thud and his overprotective instincts were brought out to play.
Toby has always been a big strong guy. In high school many of the kids were intimidated by him even though he was a total sweetheart deep down. But that's not to say that he never got into the odd kafuffle every now and then. He was a good fighter too. So after hearing that sound he barged into Maya's apartment and he will never forget the image of what he saw.
Seeing red Toby launched himself towards Alex punching him in the face so hard you could hear the crack of his nose breaking. Toby knew his knuckles were busted once again. He had only just gotten the cast off from when he punched the wall at the hospital. But Toby didn't care. Alex had fallen to the ground after being hit. He was not expecting that. Toby picked him up by his shirt and shoved him against the wall.
"Doesn't feel so great on the other side does it?" He asked before punching him again.
Only slightly recovering from the second punch Alex tackled Toby to the ground and got in a punch of his own. But he was weakened by Toby's attack and so the blonde man quickly got the upper hand and pushed Alex off of him. He was about to punch him again when he heard a soft cry.
"Toby stop"
He really wanted to kill the bastard but hearing the desperation and pain in Maya's voice he stopped. He turned around and went to her side. She was barely conscious and Toby felt like an idiot for not calling for an ambulance before. So that's what he did.
"It's gonna be ok Maya" He gently whispered as he held her hand.
He looked around and was furious when he noticed that Alex had snuck out. He wanted to go out there and find him but he couldn't leave Maya.
~~~ A Late Night Call ~~~
Quinn and Rachel had put Ally to bed and were currently in the living room watching a movie with Charlie. Rachel was still annoyed with Quinn for breaking her Barbra doll so Charlie had to sit between her mothers. Quinn had tried to apologise but Rachel was not having it and was currently giving her wife the silent treatment. It was during a commercial when the phone rang. Charlie got up first to answer it.
"Hello?...um yeah sure I'll go get her." Charlie answered
She came back into the living room and handed the phone over to her mom.
"It's for you, it's Toby"
Quinn took the phone
"Hello"
"Mom…I've been arrested"
