———Flashback 4 years ago———
"Babe! I'm home" Santana said as she entered the loft "Britt I'm home where are you?"
She went upstairs and opened her bedroom door. She noticed Britt in the shower. She smiled and began to remove her clothes when she realized she wasn't alone.
"What the fuck!" Santana yelled as she opened the shower door.
There stood her wife and fellow back up dancer.
"Seriously? Tina?" Santana slammed the shower door causing it to shatter sending glass everywhere.
"San wait!" Brittany said as they tried to maneuver around the glass while grabbing towels.
Santana was downstairs pouring a drink
"San, I'm sorry!" Brittany said as she came down the stairs. Tina running out
"We've been married for 5 fucking years Britt and this is what you do? How fucking original"
"I'm sorry San" Brittany started to cry
"We're done Brittany, pack your shit and get the hell out I want a divorce"
——-end flashback——-
"San that was years ago and I've apologized countless times" Brittany urged grabbing her hand
"I'm in love with Quinn, Britt. You need to accept it and move on" Santana moved her hand
"If that's how you want to okay this then we will just remember who gave birth to Beth"
"You're not taking my baby Britt" Santana was getting angry
"Leave her here and go"
Just as the nurse walked in to grab Beth
"This isn't over Brittany" Santana said as she kissed her baby's head and left the room.
As she reached the nurses station she said
"I want my name taken off everything having to do with room 525 and I need her documentation to show Pierce not Lopez. Please take all my credit cards off file. The only time I am to be contacted is for my daughter Beth Lopez understand?"
The nurses nodded. She was not to be messed with. She took off fuming looking for Quinn.
She found her all of her stress began to melt away and she smiled, Quinn was trying to figure out the coffee machine in front of her but struggling, her head was tilted to the side and her face was scrunched.
She heard a giggle behind her and turned to find Santana and that damn smirk she loved
"Glad you're enjoying my struggle Lopez"
"Hi baby" she kissed her "Everything okay?" Santana exhaled while wrapping her arms around her
"No but you make everything okay again I love you so much"
"Let's go home"
The car ride was silent they needed to talk.
As they entered the loft Santana hung up both of their jackets, poured some wine and they sat on the couch. Santana put her head on her girlfriends shoulder
"Talk to me love" Quinn said as she placed a kiss on top of her head
"Britt threatened to take my baby away if I marry you" She exhaled.
They hadn't even talked about marriage yet.
"I love you Santana but we haven't talked about all that yet, isn't it too soon?"
"She always had a way of seeing right through me" she laughed "She knows where my heart is, Look Q, I'm not saying marry me tomorrow but I definitely want you in my and Beth's future"
"I would love nothing more babe but we just said I love you, you already have a baby. "I just feel like..."
"Is this too much too fast Quinn?" Santana said as she sat up to look at her girlfriend's face.
"I'm not getting cold feet Santana don't look at me like that. I'm just in a really good place with my career, my movie is about to come out, I have a beautiful girlfriend. Life is good right now! I don't want us to rush anything "
"I see" Santana said disappointed
" I definitely see my future with you San, I'm not going anywhere I promise" she said as she grabbed her face and kissed her
"I...uh...I think I'm going to go back to the hospital tonight, I want to be with my baby" Santana stood up
"Oh. Okay of course" Quinn followed her
"I'll just go home and check on you tomorrow?"
"Uh yeah that sounds good" Santana as she handed her, her jacket.
They kissed and said goodbye. Santana had some thinking to do.
Before she knew it she was back at the hospital. She knocked softly and entered the room. Brittany was sleeping and Beth was in her bassinet stirring.
Santana reached down picking her up and kissing her
"Hi" Brittany said sleepy
"Hi" Santana smiled back sitting next to her
"I'm glad you're here San"
"Me too Britt Britt"
Brittany felt a tear roll down, only Santana had called her that and she hadn't heard it in years.
"Can you stay the night with us? Please" She looked at Santana with tired eyes
"I'm not going anywhere I'll be here get some rest" She winked at her
The next morning she woke up to see Brittany taking a picture of her. As she yawned she said "What are you doing B?"
"Taking a picture of my family" she smiled
"Britt" Santana said "I'm just here to make sure you and Beth are okay, nothing changes"
She kissed the top of beth's head and hands her over to Brittany
"I have to go B, I'll be back later to check on you okay?" She leaned over to kiss her cheek but Brittany moved her face and ended up kissing Santana.
It took Santana back, all the memories flooded her mind, all the emotions like a ton of bricks. Finally she pulled away
"You can't recreate that San" Brittany whispered
"I gotta go" Santana threw her jacket on and left
"Fuck"
"Rachel I need you right now, Ellas" she hung up
