"Well this all looks the same." Puck commented as all three walked up to the back of the house. Rachel was the first to look in the window just seeing Stephanie looking over some papers at the kitchen table. There was no noise, no children talking, no TV's on at all the place was dead silent." I wonder where her new dude is?" Rachel asked in a whisper" Hopefully at work." Brittany said knowing a little about the man her sister was dating even though people have said he was a good man that doesn't' mean anything to Brittany, people said Richie was a looker and look how that turned out for both her sister and herself.
"I am going to go in and talk to her." Brittany made up her mind." What? Why?" Brittany shook her head." I want to see how she is." Rachel knew Brittany had already made up her mind and there was no changing it now they had a choice to stay and go along with Brittany's plan or get out of the way and go back to the hotel which the second option wasn't an option to both Puck and her. Brittany knocked on the back door starting to sweat. It didn't take long at all for Stephanie to open the door and gulp when she saw who was at her back door." Brittany?" Stephanie thought out loud." Yes it's me Stephanie, how are you?" Brittany asked nonchantenly showing no emotion. "How are the children?" Stephanie opened the door wider for Brittany and her friends before letting the door shut itself." The twins are good upstairs in bed the other children were taken from me almost two weeks ago." Brittany's stomach started to do flips." So he is out of your life." Brittany thought not believing her sister would let the children go." Yes Brittany and I have you to thank for that." Stephanie bit her bottom lip not wanting to show too much emotion." They went to Kelly so the kids are safe but it hurts me to know I won't see them again and their father is AWOL at the moment." Brittany had a hard time processing this, she had to know where Richie was.
"You sure you don't know his whereabouts are?" Stephanie could see her sister didn't trust her and really why should she?" I don't know I haven't talked to him or want to for that Brittany, since I have found." Mark has been a miracle Brittany for me from day one he has really helped me see what I was living like and now with therapy that I enrolled myself in though I have only been there twice I really feel like it's a good thing for me. Maybe you should look into some." Stephanie said the last part quietly." I am happy you got out of there with Olivia and Richie junior both of them need you Stephanie to be the best parent ever." Brittany took a deep breath before she took something out of her jacket." Here this is for you and the babies." Stephanie held her hand up trying to stop her sister." No Brittany we are fine now. I have a new job one were I don't have to strip and I have Martin which you know is already a wealthy man so keep your money. "Brittany couldn't believe what she was hearing her sister was turning down money this was defiantly not her sister." Can I see them?" Brittany hesitated hoping she was not turned down." Sure, upstairs to the right." Puck stayed down stairs with Stephanie while Brittany and Rachel walked upstairs to the twin's room.
Walking into the dark bedroom tears instantly came to Brittany's eyes as she saw the new bigger beds for the twins and the decorations that were not there months prior." That is cute." Rachel commented pointing to a picture of the twins hanging over their beds." they're so big." Brittany cried feeling her heart start to dance. Taken out her phone out of her pocket, she quickly and as quietly as she could snap a few photos of both babies sleeping." I miss them so much." Rachel placed her hand on the blonde's shoulder looking down at the twins that looked so much like Stephanie and because of that looked like Brittany as well." You were always there for them I am sure you do. I too miss the little rascals the ones that are not here." Brittany nodded slightly feeling like she has lost five brothers and sisters." I need to see them too." Brittany declared out loud." We will see about that." Knowing that mission would be very tricky if near impossible without getting into some kind of trouble." She looks good." Rachel said talking about Stephanie and Brittany understood.
"I know it's like a different person down there plus therapy who would have thought?" Rachel shook her head stunned." I am happy for this new change if that is what this is and not an illusion." Brittany tilted her head." You think?" Rachel shrugged a little" This is all just too weird to be true you know? Going from what your sister was to this mother of the year person down there something just doesn't seem right and it's only been months." Brittany had to agree something did seem off." Brittany, Rachel you two alright up here?" Puck asked coming up from behind the girls as they quietly shut the twin's bedroom door." Yeah, how is it down there?" puck looked behind him before looking back." Your sister is like weird now I don't know I think I like crazy bitch better then smiling Mary Poppins down there. If I were to guess I say drugs some weird stuff though that makes you want to be the better version of yourself." Both Brittany and Rachel laughed." Ok then, my mission here is complete." Brittany announced getting to see her niece and nephew and see how her sister was." Let's go downstairs."
"Brittany before you go I have to tell you something." Stephanie sounded unsure now and Brittany caught onto that real fast." Detective Wister called a couple days ago and told me that Richie and your daughter that is named Mackenzie Cooper is missing." Brittany could feel all the blood in her face drain at those words." What? How? Richie?" Stephanie really sincerely looks like she was tortured by that idea as well." They don't know she never came back home from a nearby park and the two kids she were playing with mentioned a man they had seen by the swing set he had asked her name." Brittany turned she felt sick as Rachel gasps "This isn't right, why bring her into something like this?" Stephanie nodded agreeing." Are you alright Brittany?" Puck asked noticing the blonde's face change to white now.
"Get her to the couch." Stephanie instructed." Brittany they're out there looking and I know a hundred percent he won't hurt a kid." Brittany's head snapped to her sister's direction so fast Rachel thought it was going to snap off her neck. Brittany glared at her sister." I was a child and he hurt me." Stephanie was frightened." I mean his own child Brittany he won't hurt her." Brittany threw the possibility this monster would take pity on her since she was half of his gene pool but she couldn't see it in her mind." Where was she last seen?" Brittany demanded." California." Stephanie said beginning to dial a number on her phone. Handing the phone over to her sister the blonde accepted it." Hello." Brittany greeted and closed her eyes as the detective asked her a few questions after she explained who she was and what she was calling about." I will certainly be in touch with you Detective if I hear anything." Brittany assured the man on the other line before hanging up the phone." I have to call Santana now."
"Your turn Hummel" Santana exclaimed as she threw her cards on the edge of the table. Both her and Kurt were losing horrible to Quinn while Blaine sat beside Kurt snapping pictures." Stop that." Kurt said while trying to grab Blaine's phone. Neither Santana or Kurt would call it quits because they were both too prideful." Really nothing again, ok I am calling it quits." Kurt exclaimed throwing his cards down on the table defeated." Wow that is a first." Santana mumbled under her breath." Yes it is." Quinn agreed out loud." So that makes me the winner, thanks for all the money you both." Quinn gathered her almost three hundred dollars in bliss." whose phone is ringing?" Quinn asked looking around as she heard a beeping." Oh that is mine I put it back to regular ringtone last night." Santana explained as she rushed to her purse and took the beeping phone out of her purse.
"I thought no cell phones tonight." Kurt scowled his friend." It is I just have to take this it's Brittany." Santana informed as she answered." What's up sexy lady?" Santana said cheerfully in the receiver." Hey sexy" Puck exclaimed back to the Latina in the receiver" Ass why do you have Britt's phone?" Santana asked irritated." Santana something happened and Brittany needs you but where we are you're not going to like either." Puck hated to have to be the messenger but since Brittany had laid down and started to cry and Rachel was the one she wanted to hold her he was the only one that could call the Latina." Where are you guys at?" Santana felt her blood start to boil" At Brittany's old house." Santana's eyes widened." Why? What?" puck took the phone away from his ear as she Santana blew up on the other end when he couldn't hear anything he put it back up to his ear." Are you still there?" puck asked calmly." Just tell me everything Puck and if you leave out anything I will cut off your Mohawk" Puck started from the beginning and ended with Brittany lying down on the couch.
" Everything, madam" Puck finished looking over at Rachel who was looking back at him waiting for him to get off the phone." We will be there in a few." Santana said already in the car giving the driver instructions.
Running up the drive way Kobe ran as fast as he could to catch up to the star and her friends as they without waiting for someone to open the door for them opened the door and ran in. Brittany was sitting straight on the couch hugging her knees to her chest" Baby?" Santana whispered running her hand over the top of the blonde's knee." He has her San." Brittany informed not really able to form a whole sentence at the moment, her throat was dry and hurting now." I am so sorry Brittany." Santana didn't know what she could say so she just scooted back on the couch and wrapped her arms around the blonde.
Santana was clearly upset that her girlfriend and her friends went off on this adventure without any safety or telling anyone else she was more concerned though at the moment with how her girlfriend was doing inside her mind. After getting back to the hotel Brittany just went into pacing/thinking mode and didn't say much at all during this time until she started pouring out her feelings at the moment to Santana who listened determined to help in some way." I need to leave." Brittany had said at one part which instantly grabbed Santana's attention." No you don't Brittany, they will find both of them and when they do Richie is going to be locked up for a long time." Santana stressed she didn't want Brittany to just leave like she had been accustomed to and Santana felt badly but she had to call the blonde out again." Why didn't you tell me you were going to go see your sister tonight?" Brittany knew this was going to come around and bite her in the butt it usually did but still she always seemed to make that mistake." I see now how stupid that was, I just thought we go there I would ask to see the twins and take whatever I get but Stephanie has really changed or has taken acting classes in the last couple of weeks because she was totally different." Santana nodded had seen this for herself tonight." Brittany we are in a relationship whatever is going on with you is going on with me too." Santana continued not letting Brittany distract what she needed to say.
"I know and keeping that from you was stupid and I am sorry." Santana sighed." You can't run away Britt, I know how awful this situation is and until we catch him and make sure that little girl's safe you're going to be going through a lot but please think of me before you act. I will always put you first and I ask you to do the same." Santana said firmly and by the look on her girlfriend's face she had gotten her point across clearly. Brittany unfolded her knees and patted her thigh Santana laid her head down and Brittany began to play with her hair." I will put you first." Brittany whispered. They stayed in complete silence for a few moments both in their own minds." How are the twins?" Santana asked curious." Big, I can't believe how much they look like Stephanie and I when we were younger." Brittany smiled thinking of her niece and nephew." I miss them so much." Brittany confessed sadly. Santana kissed Brittany's thigh." I bet you do." Brittany thought about Richie's other children and frowned." The other five are with Richie's sister further north." Brittany informed thinking of them in her head." Is she a nice woman?" Brittany shrugged." I really don't know too much about her only that she would give Richie money when he needed it." Santana didn't comment anything just lost in thought." How old is Mackenzie now?" Brittany swiped her tongue along her lips a few times before she answered." Eight."
"Did you hold her?" Brittany nodded but knew her girlfriend didn't see her." she was so small when they handed me her I thought I was going to hurt her just by touching her and I didn't want to do that so I didn't hold her long but as I was holding her I whispered to her a little." Brittany was in tears now seeing that perfect little angelic face she had delivered." I told her that I loved her and that her mother and father would give her the best of everything. Then I told her I was sorry." Brittany recalled." Why did you apologize?" Brittany stopped playing with the Latina's hair to wipe her eyes before taken a deep breathe in and letting it out slowly." I wasn't mother material and her father was a monster I just thought I should apologize because I knew I wouldn't see her again." Santana squeezed her girlfriend's knee." I am so scared San if he does anything I will kill him." Hearing the blonde so serious gave Santana shivers up her spine and down her arms." I know he is a monster but something tells me this is a scam to get you." Santana thought out loud." I just hope so because she shouldn't have to go through this she is only a child." Brittany laid her head back on the couch looking up at the ceiling." Brittany everything will work out." Santana tried to reassure her girlfriend before turning herself around and looking up at the blonde." I believe it will." Santana continued. Brittany looked down at her girlfriend and offered her a little smile." I hope so."
"How is she?" Puck, Quinn and Rachel stood in the hotel's hallway all concerned about the blonde" Still trying to process everything. I wished this dude would just do us all a favor and kill himself." Santana growled." Yeah well if you haven't heard that man is in love with himself so I don't see that happening anytime soon, though I would gladly volunteer to help him do so." Puck explained folding his arms across his chest." Thanks Puck." Santana said knowing how much he cared for her girlfriend." No need to thank me, I have wanted to off him since well forever." Rachel nodded agreeing." He has been nothing but awful and I still can't believe Stephanie would marry someone who raped and got her sister pregnant. I was there when she had the baby." Rachel informed half lost in her own head." She was having contractions all evening and Richie tried to lock her in her room but I threatened to call the CIA, FBI and the police saying I had connections in all three so he backed up and left." Rachel smiled at the image of her small unconfident side take charge and yell as loud as she could to get her friend to the hospital." I wasn't sure what was going to happen I knew she wasn't keeping the baby and that she had met a couple from California that really wanted a child but other than that I didn't know about her pain care or insurance we were just children ourselves. Kitty came right after I called her and she took over like she was a expert."
Puck held his hand up." When you called me that night I was in hyper mode trying to get ready but I could hear Kitty go on and on how Brittany needed this and this because she had seen it on Tv." Both Rachel and Puck shared a laugh." Apparently because you watch a lot of doctor shows that doesn't make you a doctor." Puck added." I hope to god they find that little girl." Quinn said in thought not even wanting to think that could happen." Brittany secretly wanted to name her Justine." Santana's eyes widened not having heard that before." She didn't tell me, I kind of read it out of her journal one time when It was laid opened on her bed and we were hanging out in her room." Rachel explained." Whatever happens we all will be there for her. This tour is almost over and I know we all are going back to our regular lives but this isn't going to end anytime soon I don't believe." Santana said sadly." We will always be there for Brittany." Puck said without a doubt." She has been there too many times for me in the past." He said thinking of what he wanted to do after tour." I think I am going to move to the city to be closer to you all." Rachel gave Puck a side hug.
"We can be roommates." Rachel squeezed tighter." I thought you were living with Quinn." Well I do but she is living with someone." Puck looked down at the brunette confused." Nothing like that, she just needed a roommate and I didn't want to live alone." Quinn embarrassingly explained. Santana laughed." Well now you have your own little lover and you can work on getting another place or kicking her out. I for one is not letting Brittany out of my sight when we get off this tour I am thinking about pad locking the doors and windows." Santana laughed at the looks of her friends faces at the moment." That is pyscho San." Quinn commented." Is it really? This man is crazy and out there somewhere and out to get my girl." Quinn shook her head." Please talk to Brittany before doing something like that." Rachel laughed." Brittany would probably go crazy being stuck in one place though." Santana shook her head." Not when she has me." Quinn threw her a disgusting glance as did Rachel but Puck who was in dreamland." Knock it out pervert." Santana smacked Puck in the arm. "Now let's all go order some room service." Santana declared feeling hungry." Is she?" Rachel pointed to the Latina's room." She is asleep I told her to call me when she gets up."
Brittany laid in bed not able to sleep now which was driving her crazy since she had been dead tired right before her girlfriend left. Looking down at her phone at the pictures of the twins she had taken she wondered what another little girl looked like as well. Would she look like them? Him? Would she like her if she knew who she was or would she hate her? Questions among questions filled her head. "Please don't hurt her, please." Brittany begged whoever was listening to her at the moment.
