—Later that night—-
Santana fidgeted as she checked her phone again. Quinn was late, Damn Hollywood actors.
"Hi babe I'm so sorry I'm late the shoot ran over". Quinn rushed in quickly kissing Santana's cheek and sitting down
"It's okay no problem" Santana smiled she was used to her being late. "I ordered for us I hope that's okay"
As the waiter set down their drinks
"Ugh! I love you! Thank you!" She froze
"You know" Santana said "That's twice in one day you've said you loved me"
"I'm...I'm sorry San it just slipped"
Santana's face fell
"So are you using it as a catch phrase of you do you mean it?" Santana sat back
"I do mean i Santana, I just wasn't sure where you were or if it's too soon"
They both exhaled
"I love you too Quinn" Santana said as she kissed Quinn's hand.
Her phone rang
"I'm sorry babe it's Rach"
Quinn nodded and Santana answered
"Hobbit I'm on a date with my girlfriend what do you want". She winked and smiled at Quinn
"Santana I'm sorry but this is serious. You need to get to the hospital now"
Santana's face dropped "What happened Rach"
"It's Britt, she and Beth were in a car accident!"
Santana's world flipped she hung up and grabbed Quinn without a second word
"Babe? What's wrong? What happened?"
"I'm sorry love, Britt and Beth were in an accident"
"I'll drive San you can't right now" Quinn took the keys and they made their way to the hospital. Santana ran in asking the nurses for her baby
"Mrs Lopez your wife is in recovery we need you to sign these forms for her first" the nurses instructed. Santana didn't correct them and Quinn noticed this but didn't say anything.
"There, all signed can we see them now?"
As the nurses took them back Quinn grabbed Santana's hand. Once they reached the door Santana dropped her hand and opened the door.
She saw Brittany, her eyes were closed and she had wires all over. Santana started crying as she walked over and grabbed her hand.
The nurse walked in and was talking to Quinn, she didn't even notice they had handed Beth to Quinn, she stood there rocking her.
"Why does she have our baby?"
A weak voice said.
Santana looked up her eyes wide "You're awake Britt! You're awake!"
And without a second thought she kissed her. Causing both blondes to freeze. What the hell just happened.
"San why the hell does SHE have our baby" Brittany looked at Santana.
As Santana looked up she realized what she was talking about.
"We were at dinner when I got the call"
They were interrupted as the Dr walked in
"Mrs Lopez?" He said
"Yes?" They both responded and looked at each other.
"Sorry" Santana said "You mean her not me"
She cleared her throat and walked over to Quinn
"You okay?" Santana asked she knew Quinn
"No but we can talk later" She handed Beth to her. Santana looked at her baby girl and smiled.
"Mrs Lopez, you were in a car accident, you're incredibly lucky to be alive, you and your baby"
He turned to check out Beth as she cried
"What happened Dr?" Santana asked as she walked back next to Brittany.
"We don't have the specifics but it wasn't your wife's fault"
That's the second time they call her that. Quinn clenches her jaw, she doesn't like it.
"She's not my wife anymore, my wife is actually behind you but tell me Dr when..Did..."
"What??" Both blondes said in unison causing Santana to look between the two, confused
"What Britt?"
Brittany looked at Quinn who was a deer caught in the headlights.
Should she run away? Smile? Cry? Laugh?
"Oh I'm Sorry Mrs Lopez, you're just the emergency contact and all the insurance information is under you I just assumed" He assured her, Santana hadn't even realized what she said until now, she cleared her throat.
"Can I have a moment with MY family" Brittany rudely said towards Quinn
"Of course, I'll be in the lobby baby."
She said as she kissed Santana and Beth and walked out.
"What the hell Santana, I almost died and you're calling her your wife?"
Beth starts to cry
"Calm down Britt you're scaring Beth" She tried to calm her baby girl
"Shhhh baby it's okay your mamas crazy yes she is, yes she is"
This made Brittany laugh, Santana always had a way over her, and since she was 16 she always had her heart.
"Why can't we be a family again San?" Brittany asked as she grabbed Santana's hand.
"Britt. Don't do this. Not again. You already know why"
