A week later
"You have been quiet all morning." Quinn said wondering what was going through her best friend's head at the moment. Santana continued to look out her window at the nothing in particularly." Earth to Santana I am trying to talk to you here. Do I need to get Kurt? I know he can make you talk." Santana closed her eyes and shook her head." It's nothing bad Quinn." Santana said softly." Then what is it?" Quinn demanded." Brittany and I were talking about tomorrow yesterday and it kind of got emotional when we started talking about parents. I wish they were here still for her tomorrow." Quinn understood now as she placed a hand on the back of Santana's shoulder. "I am sorry but they will be in spirit." Santana nodded." I guess, I was just thinking I should think of something special to add them into the ceremony somehow." Quinn's mind started wondering trying to come up with an idea to help her friends out." Candles with their names on it." Quinn suggested." Santana shrugged." That's a start." Santana walked over to her kitchen table with the blonde right behind her." When did they say they would be back?" Santana asked forgetting what Brittany had told her earlier.
"Um should be back around four. Puck and Rachel found a place not too far all they had to do was sign some more paperwork and then he had to go turn in some information in for that DJ job he was hired for." Santana chucked." Puck a DJ." Quinn rolled her eyes." I know and our girls are his groupies." Quinn laughed." I miss those carefree days." Santana thought out loud. Quinn knew exactly what she was talking about.' Before the fame, yep." Quinn agreed." Yeah it was so much simpler to go anywhere and just cause a riot and leave without being on the first page of some magazine in the morning looking out of control." Quinn laughed." You have had plenty of those." Santana sighed." I am glad Brittany hasn't gotten her hands on any of those yet." Quinn's eyes widened." You haven't showed her?" Santana's eyebrows went together "Maybe when we're old and gray but not anytime soon." Santana stressed." She won't love you any less." Quinn informed nonchantenly.
"I know I just don't want her getting any ideas she is still very young." Quinn rolled her eyes." Brittany isn't into any drugs are heavy drinking like we were at her age I believe you two will be fine. Oh did Kurt tell you what Tina and Brittany were talking about last week when he went to see if everyone was cleaning out their buses to go home." Santana shook her head." Babies." Santana's eyes widened." What did he say they said?" Santana was very interested now." She told Tina she has a list of baby names in her journal already." Santana felt her heart start to dance." I knew she wanted kids, well we both do but I didn't know she had names." Quinn nodded." You two are going to be moms soon." Quinn sung." That sounds good and all but let me marry the love of my life and just enjoy her before that time." Quinn raised her finger." Amen to that sister, but you can't deny your kids are going to be beautiful." Santana rolled her eyes." Of course." She said having no doubt about that." And super spoiled." Quinn explained." Stating the obvious Quinn now how about you and Rachel?" Quinn's face went red." You have been thinking about lady babies as well? Now spill." Quinn shrugged." I guess, it's easy to see a future with her I just need to know if she is seeing the same future as I." Quinn confessed hoping she wasn't the only one that saw these images in her head." Of course she sees all this I can tell how much that midget loves you." Quinn shot her a glare." Hey it's the truth." Santana defended her statement." You're not very tall yourself, don't forget that." The Latina shrugged." Taller than her though." Quinn chuckled." Hardly." Earning her a smack on the forearm that made her laugh harder." Let's go get some lunch." Quinn announced." I am hungry."
"So what are we exactly looking for?" Rachel asked looking through the many different pieces of jewelry in the display case." A ring." Brittany announced." Didn't you already get her a ring?" Rachel asked confused." That is her mother's ring tomorrow I have to replace that ring." Brittany explained on the verge of a panic attack." I thought I found the perfect ring in California but it wasn't." Rachel continued to look at the many different rings." So now we are going to look all day for the perfect one." She said out loud already knowing that was the plan." Yes." A woman walked up to the two women from behind having been watching them look for some time now.
"May I help you ladies?" Brittany turned around as did Rachel." Maybe I am desperately looking for a ring." Brittany confessed nervously." Well what kind are you looking for and I will help you the best I can?" the woman continued. After Brittany explained what she was looking for in a ring for her soon to be bride the woman went right to work looking for the perfect ring. Brittany felt better once the woman started pointing out rings to her." Do you know what kind of price range you're looking for?" Brittany didn't even think about how much she should spend on a ring she just wanted a ring." I will know when I find the ring." Brittany said looking over at Rachel who nodded." The sales woman was clearly shocked that these young women had that kind of cash." Can I asked what it is that you do?" the woman asked trying to gain some background information of the woman in front of her. "I am jobless now." Brittany admitted with a shrug." Me too I guess." Rachel said for the first time out loud frowning." We should probably look for jobs as well." The woman was very concerned now." I don't want to be rude but can you afford a ring in here?" Brittany looked around the place and nodded." Yes that is why I am in here." Brittany could tell the woman was uncomfortable now.
"Trust me I wouldn't be in a place like this if I couldn't buy a ring from you I am just looking for the perfect ring for my fiancé. This is important she has always been the one to bring more into this relationship then I coming from nothing and I want this to be special. We are getting married tomorrow and I don't want to mess this up and I know I am young but Santana is it for me." The woman smiled hearing the blonde pour out her heart." You wouldn't have to be getting married to Santana Lopez would you?" Brittany blushed knowing she was busted." Yes that is her woman." Rachel sung before clicking her tongue." Wow, that is amazing. Congratulations you two and now this changes everything I will find you your perfect ring Brittany." The woman bounced off to tell her coworkers who her customer was as Brittany and Rachel looked at each other weirdly" People?" Brittany whispered to the brunette who nodded her head." Weird." Rachel commented starting to look up the other side of the glass of rings." So maybe we should ask Puck if that club is hiring." Brittany nodded." We need to do something."
An hour later the woman finally came back with a collection of rings she had gathered in the back and brought out for Brittany to look at. Brittany didn't have to look long to point to one that was in the middle of the collection." Brittany that is perfect." Rachel commented holding a hand over her mouth as the woman handed the ring to the blonde. The ring was actually three that clicked together. Two wedding bands that held little diamonds that surround the big diamond. Brittany couldn't stop looking at it as she imaged it on her wife's finger. 'Her wife' those words still gave her chills thinking about being someone's wife." It's it." Brittany said not knowing what else to say. "can I get it today?" the woman asked the measurements and Brittany was thanking the heavens the store had the ring right there." The woman was happy when the credit card went through and Brittany was indeed able to pay for the ring." Thank you so much." Brittany said before taken Rachel's hand and walking out of the store." I can't believe how much that ring was." Rachel started as soon as they were out of the store." I know but it is the ring Rachel." Rachel smiled widely happy for her friend." It is." She agreed.
"We are back." Brittany called out hoping no one was around at that moment so she could go hide this ring box upstairs. When no one answered back she ran her fastest up the stairs and in the bedroom. Looking around she immediately went for the closet were her empty suitcases were sitting. Placing the ring box in there Brittany closed the closet door and sat down on the bed taken a couple breaths in and out she had done what she sat out to do today." Britt, come outside with us." Santana called up from the bottom stairs." Ok, be down in a minute." Brittany answered back happy her girl was indeed home" You alright Babe?" Santana asked hearing how out of breath the blonde sounded." Yep everything is amazing." Brittany said walking out of the room and down the stairs to her soon to be bride" Hey gorgeous." Santana said before checking the blonde out" Pervert?" Brittany teased.
"Hey after tomorrow I own all of that." Santana pointed from Brittany's head to feet. Brittany stopped right in front of the Latina and wrapped her arms around her neck." Yes you do Babe." Brittany placed a few kisses on Santana's nose making the Latina squirm." Why haven't I seen you all day?" Santana pouted." Had lots to do my lady before tomorrow" Santana tilted her head" like what?" Brittany shook her head." Can't tell yeah but know that I am a very happy bride to be at the moment." Santana loved hearing that." Well I am too." Then what she had done with Quinn popped up in her head." Hey Brittany you know how we were talking about your parents and how you wished they could be with us somehow tomorrow?" Brittany nodded." Quinn and I came up with an idea come look." Santana took the blonde's hand and escorted her to the back porch where the picnic table was covered with white candles. Quinn and Rachel were cuddling together on a nearby lawn chair looking over at the two women that just walked out of the house.
" What is this San?" Brittany asked thinking the candles were pretty." How your parents will be able to be a part of our ceremony." Brittany arched an eyebrow." I don't get it Hun." Brittany admitted confused." Look at the candles." Brittany picked one up and was shocked to see the side of the candle had her parent's picture printed on the side." How?" Brittany asked admiring the candle in her hand." Quinn knows some really cool people." Santana smiled over at her friend who smiled back." This is beautiful." Brittany commented feeling the tears start to build up in her eyes. Turning to Santana." You're too good to me." Brittany chocked out. Santana caught a few tears as she shook her head." Because you're the love of my life baby." Santana said looking into those blue eyes she loved so much." We were thinking of using these for the reception and taken a few to light tomorrow." Brittany nodded agreeing." That sounds perfect." Also my Mami made you a bouquet and it is mainly lilies." Santana announced seeing the Blonde start to cry harder." They should be with us for this special day and I know they're very proud of you Brittany." Rachel clapped from the lawn chair" Even though we are jobless." Brittany started to laugh as Santana narrowed her eyes." It's true San, Rachel and I realized that earlier when someone asked us what we do." Santana shrugged." You don't have to work." Brittany glared." Yes we do." Rachel hummed in response." We were thinking working at the club with Puck." Rachel announced." NO." Both Quinn and Santana said in unison.
"Why are you guys taken Brittany away?" Santana asked eyeing Rachel and Puck carrying Brittany's pillow and night bag down the stairs." You two aren't supposed to see each other until it's time to say I do." Puck explained having no clue why he knew this." We aren't doing everything traditional." Santana stressed not liking this idea of her being away from the blonde the night before they say I do." We know we are just helping to make it a little more like an actual wedding. Don't worry Quinn and a few of your other friends are on their way to join you tonight." Santana pouted." But I just want her." Brittany awed at how adorable and needy the star was being." I will have my phone and computer." Brittany whispered." Facebook me around one." Brittany added biting her bottom lip as she waited for Santana to say something." Ok but be good no heavy drinking." Brittany held out her pinky and Santana intertwined it with hers." I promise." Santana leaned over and kissed Brittany hard making Brittany's head start to swim." Another one please." Brittany pleaded. Santana smiled against Brittany's lips." Tomorrow is the day." She whispered." Yep." Brittany whispered back. Rachel grabbed the blonde's wrist.
"Let's go you will see her tomorrow." Brittany blew Santana one last kiss before she walked out the door with Rachel and Puck." Did you get-?" Rachel was nodding before Brittany could finish her sentence." Found it exactly where you said it was, now get your butt in that car we have a party to get to." Brittany's eyes widened." What?" Brittany didn't think they had something plan." Come on Tara and Tina and everyone else is here to help you celebrate and don't worry we will be making sure you don't drink out of control. Santana is also having her own party too" Hearing that Brittany felt kind of better knowing Santana will be having some fun too."
One am
B- How was your night?
Santana smiled seeing the message pop up on her computer screen.
S- It would have been better if a certain blonde was here with me to join in on all the festivities but our friends really out did themselves.
Brittany smiled reading Santana had a good time.
B- They surely did. I missed you too.
S- :/ want me to come kidnap you?
B- That is very tempting but we should just wait. Meet you at the courthouse at nine.
S- I wouldn't miss it for anything beautiful.
B- I love you San
S- Love you too B, now go to sleep.
B- x_x
Santana laughed as she shut her laptop and held it close to her chest. She couldn't believe this year and it wasn't even over yet. How the love of her life just appeared in her life and now she was actually getting married to her. Closing her eyes it didn't take too long for sleep to find her with a smile on her face thinking of the blonde.
