'' Mrs Fabray, you may come in.''
Quinn stands up turning her head to her best friends and nods her head. '' Come on, please remember to keep your cool and let me do the most of the talking.''
Brittany intertwines her hand with her wife's taking a hold of Nico's with her other hand and nods her head following Quinn inside, Quinn pulls her chair back sitting across the director of the boys school and folds her hands in front of her on the table.
She turns to the board as soon as everyone settles down and smiles her trademark friendly lawyer smile. '' Thank you so much for meeting us on such short notice ma'am.''
Mrs Ryan shakes her head and smiles kindly. '' No need to thank me Mrs Fabray, your call sounded urgent may I ask what the cause of this emergency meeting is about?''
Quinn nods her head folding her hands on top of the files she just pulled out of her bag and smiles slightly. '' Mrs and Mrs Lopez contacted me yesterday after their sons got suspended for getting into a fight.''
'' Okay yeah that is the standard punishment for getting into a fight but that is no reason to call in an emergency meeting Mrs Fabray.''
'' Mrs Ryan I called for this meeting because Alexander and Nicolas Lopez got suspended for no reason, yes it is correct that there was a fight at school yesterday but they weren't the ones who started it.''
Mrs Ryan turns to Principal John and raises an eyebrow. '' Mr John what happened yesterday?''
'' Mrs Ryan I got called out of my office yesterday because there was a fight on the playground and the second I walked out I saw Nicolas Lopez on the ground with Daniel Brown in what looked like a fist fight.''
Quinn taps the table softly as she hears growls coming from her left side and silently tells her best friends to shut up, she turns to glance at Nico and smiles reassuringly as he looks at her.
'' Mrs Ryan may I interrupt?''
'' Go ahead, Mrs Fabray.''
Quinn turns to Mr Brown and clears her throat. '' Mr Brown I have no doubt that there was a fight at the playground because well the injury one of my clients son is sporting is more than obvious, but please tell me this.'' She mentions her hand to Nico and sighs. '' Why does my clients son sport a burst lip and bruised jaw if he is the so called initiator while Mr and Mrs Brown's son doesn't have any injuries at all?''
She glances at Daniel and sees him favoring his right hand. '' Well except for his knuckles.''
Mrs Ryan looks at both kids mentioned and sighs softly as she sees the obvious injuries on the blue eyes Latin boy, she turns to Daniel and slowly stands up as she sees her colleagues all nod their heads telling her they see him favoring his hand too. '' Daniel, may I see your hands please?''
'' Mrs Ryan I don't think that is necessary, it is quite obvious that those dykes only raise aggressive children!'' Mr Brown exclaims jumping up.
Quinn quickly reaches out squeezing Brittany's thigh hard as she hears her growl and quickly looks over at her shaking her head, Brittany bites her tongue as she locks eyes on calming hazel orbs and glares down at the table squeezing Santana's hand as she reaches for her own under the table.
'' Mr Brown I will kindly request you to watch your tongue.'' Quinn warns him
'' I agree with Mrs Fabray, Mr Brown we have children in this room and the board doesn't accept any homophobic comments directed towards other parents and or children.'' Mrs Ryan says in a calming but strict voice, she turns to Daniel and crouches down beside him. '' Daniel can you please show me your hands?''
She watches Daniel look at his parents and smiles kindly as he holds up his hands after they both nodded their heads sighing softly, she takes his small hands in her own and looks at his knuckles frowning as she sees how bruised they are. '' What happened to your hands Daniel?''
She stands back up as he shrugs his shoulders and thanks him softly, she turns to her colleagues and nods her head silently telling them that his knuckles are indeed bruised. She sits back down and turns to Quinn. '' Mrs Fabray you announced that you have a few teachers from the school ready to tell us what happened, is it alright if you wait outside while we talk to them?''
Quinn nods her head and stands up. '' Of course it is Mrs Ryan.'' She turns to her best friends and smiles. '' Let's go wait outside until the teachers finished.''
Brittany nods her head and stands up, she mentions her sons to walk in front of her and follows them out of the room.
'' Mommy, it doesn't look good right?'' Nico asks softly as he walks to the far right corner of the floor while still keeping an eye on the door as some of his and his brothers teachers walk into the room after the principal, Daniel and his parents walked out.
Brittany crouches down as Quinn leans against the wall near them trying to look busy with her phone and looks at her boys smiling as she feels her wife standing behind her to shield them from the Brown family and the principal. '' Nah it looks quite good boys, we just need to try and keep calm.''
'' We try and mami made sure we stay calm, but we heard you growl at least two times.'' Alex murmurs softly as he hugs her his brother quickly joining him, Brittany nods her head and glances up at her wife smiling slightly.
'' Yeah your mami calmed me down too, besides tiger Q was at it too.''
Quinn glares at her over her phone after making sure the other family doesn't look at them and smirks. '' Gotta keep you grounded somehow.''
'' I still feel your damn nails digging in my leg Fabray, gotta shorten them again.''
Quinn looks down at her nails and snickers. '' I will after this meeting, but for now they are the best length to hurt you a bit and to keep you grounded Pierce.''
Brittany pulls the boys against her chest and covers their free ears glaring up at the blonde. '' It's Lopez, asshole.''
'' Yeah and it's Lovato bitch.''
Santana covers her mouth chuckling and shakes her head as she watches the two blondes glare at each other, she runs her hand through her wife's hair and winks as she turns her head to look up at her. '' You called her Fabray first babe, can't blame her for calling you Pierce.''
Quinn chuckles as Brittany scoffs and winks straightening up as the door opens, Brittany stands back up as the teachers walk out and kisses their boys head as coach King covertly nods her head smiling reassuringly.
She smiles slightly and follows Quinn back into the room sitting back down next to her, she intertwines her hand with her wife's and kisses Nico's head as he opts for crawling in her lap instead of sitting next to her.
Mrs Ryan clears her throat as soon as everyone sits and turns to Quinn. '' Mrs Fabray, may I ask how you managed to call in those teachers so fast?''
Quinn folds her hands on top of the folder in front of her and sighs. '' I didn't call them in Mrs Ryan, coach King walked up to Mrs Lopez yesterday and gave her, her card and told her to call if Mrs Lopez decided to go to the board of the school with this issue.'' She looks around the room raising an eyebrow as she sees principal John glaring at her and turns back to Mrs Ryan. '' This isn't the first time that Mr and Mrs Brown made it obvious that they are against the.'' She lifts her fingers air quoting herself and bites her lip. '' lifestyle my clients are living in, Nicolas and Alexander came home often telling them about Daniel and some of his friends yelling about them living in a sin and that they will go to hell for having mothers like that.''
Mrs Ryan nods her head and turns to the principal. '' Mr John, it has come to my attention that a lot of your teachers knew what was going on but they also told me that you only punish Nicolas and Alexander for protecting each other. May I ask why Daniel never received any punishment?''
She watches Mr John open and close his mouth and leans forward folding her hands on top of the notes she took during the talk with the teachers, she sighs as she sees him shrugging his shoulders and tilts her head glancing down at the notes before her. '' Might the reason be that Daniel is your nephew and Mrs Brown your sister?''
'' H-h-how?'' Mr John stutters out.
'' How I know?'' Mrs Ryan asks raising an eyebrow, she sighs tapping the notes in front of her and leans back. '' Coach King told me all about it and she gave me proof to her statement.''
'' I thought you threatened to fire her if she would open her damn mouth!'' Mrs Brown exclaims turning to Mr John.
Brittany sighs seeing the rage in Mrs Brown eyes and quickly reaches into her pocket taking out her phone, she grabs her headset out of her wife's purse and holds it out for Nico. '' Put them in and listen to music Nic.''
Mrs Ryan watches Brittany and Santana both immediately making sure their children are occupied as Mrs Brown starts swearing and smiles slightly, she clears her throat and stands up as Mrs Brown continues. '' Mrs Brown, may I remind you that children are in this room?!''
'' I don't fucking care! My fucking brother doesn't even manage to make sure his fucking coach shuts her trap so my son can have the best education without missing a day of school! He let's two damn dykes pull him in front of the board because he is too soft to go against them and punish their devil's children!''
'' Britt no!'' Santana exclaims quickly reaching out to hold her wife back as she jumps up after tapping Nico's leg, Quinn jumps up hearing one of her best friends growl in rage and grabs her hand pulling her to the corner keeping her against the wall with a firm hand on her shoulder.
'' Calm down now!'' She murmurs softly, she looks up looking into blackened blue orbs and shakes her head. '' You flipping out on her won't help this case Brittany.''
'' Like I will sit still when she calls my kids names!'' Brittany growls out glaring over Quinn's shoulder at Mrs Brown.
Mrs Ryan sighs and walks around the desk towards to two blondes against the wall, she steps beside Quinn and looks up at the taller blonde towering almost a head and a half over her. '' Mrs Lopez I can understand your anger my wife and I have a kid ourselves, but Mrs Fabray is right getting angry in here won't help at all.''
'' Wife, kid?'' Quinn asks shocked, Mrs Ryan nods her head and smiles reassuringly.
'' This case was as good as over the second the word dyke left any of their mouths, the schools I run have a strict no bullying policy.'' She turns to Brittany and raises an eyebrow. '' Is it possible for you to stay calm the rest of the meeting? It is almost over and I will guarantee you that your sons will be happy right after this meeting Mrs Lopez.''
Brittany takes a deep breath through her nose and slowly nods her head, she watches Mrs Ryan walk back to her desk after nodding her own head and turns to Quinn. '' Thanks.''
Quinn squeezes her shoulder softly and smiles. '' No need to thank me B.''
Brittany slowly nods her head and pulls away from her, she walks back to the table sliding back into the chair beside her wife and smiles reassuringly as Nico and Alex both turn to her frowning in concern.
'' Am okay.'' She mouths slowly.
Mrs Ryan clears her throat and sighs. '' Alright I think I heard more than enough from Mrs Fabray and the teachers.'' She turns to the principal running one of her schools and places a stack of papers in front of him. '' Mr John as of today you are no longer principal of the sacred heart middle school, we runs a strict no bullying policy and you broke your contract the second you put your sisters wishes before your job. I can understand that family is important but running a job also means sacrificing certain things, letting the things Daniel and his friends did go unnoticed breaks the oath you took the second you signed the contract.''
She turns to Mr and Mrs Brown and leans back in her seat folding her hands in her lap. '' Mr and Mrs Brown I know that it is your decision on how to raise your children but raising your son to be a homophobic doesn't sit well with me, at my schools I won't tolerate such behavior and knowing it goes on since Nicolas and Alexander Lopez joined my schools worries me.''
She accepts another stack of papers from her colleague and leans forward dropping it on the table in front of Mr Brown. '' As of today Daniel and his friend which we will contact after this meeting are expelled and I will advice you to search for another school because his behavior isn't welcome in any of my schools no matter if it is elementary, middle or high school.''
She turns to the Lopez woman and smiles. '' Is it possible for your sons to join the meeting again?''
Brittany nods her head turning to Nico and mentions to his ears, she smiles lovingly as he pulls the earphones out and points at Mrs Ryan as Alex also takes out the earbuds. '' Mrs Ryan wants to say something boys.''
Mrs Ryan walks over to the boys and crouches down in front of them smiling kindly. '' Alexander and Nicolas I know that principal John gave you three week detention, but I would like to see you join our lessons again on Monday.''
She stands up looking at the Lopez woman and smiles reassuringly as she sees the worry in their eyes. '' The detention and every bad behavior written down in their file will be vanished after this meeting and they will start with a clean sheet, it's Thursday now so I will let both boys enjoy a longer weekend and I hope you won't pull them out of our schools because of what happened.''
She glances at the principal and turns back to the two woman in front of her. '' I apologize deeply for everything that happened Mrs and Mrs Lopez, I will promise you that it won't happen again.''
'' We can stay?'' Alex asks smiling brightly.
Mrs Ryan turns to him and nods her head. '' You are more than welcome to finish middle school and maybe even join the sacred heart high school Alexander.''
'' What about the bullies?'' Nico asks worrying his bottom lip in between his teeth, Brittany reaches out running a hand through his hair and smiles reassuringly as he turns to her frowning in worry.
'' Mrs Ryan will make sure that the kids who bullied you will get punished this time Nic, she understands that you only tried to protect yourself and your brother.''
Mrs Ryan nods her head in agreement and walks back to her colleagues, she sits down in between them and looks around the room. '' Are there any questions?''
'' Yes I have one.'' Mr Brown says as he stands up, he angrily points at the Lopez family and glares at them. '' Why does this school support a fucking pair of dykes and their children from hell?!''
'' Okay, what is a dyke?'' Alex asks loudly turning to his mother, Brittany groans and glares at Mr Brown.
'' Thanks a lot Mr Brown!'' She turns to Alex and sighs running a hand through her hair. '' Dyke is a really bad word that describes the relationship your mami and I have in a bad way Alex, it is a word used by people who don't accept us and they make it clear by trying to hurt us by calling us that.''
'' Yeah please never ever use that word mijos, people who use that word just try to get our attention by being mean but we won't offer our time and attention to them because they aren't worth it.''
'' But that is mean, don't they know that words can hurt people too?'' Nico asks frowning.
Mrs Ryan sighs and turns to the little boys. '' I don't think they understand how much it hurts being called like that Nicolas.'' She turns to Mr Brown and raises an eyebrow. '' Mr Brown we all warned you once to watch the language around the children, I observed your son and noticed him not flinching even once and listening to every word we said while Mrs and Mrs Lopez made sure their sons couldn't hear the bad words that your wife yelled by making them listen to music.'' She takes a deep breath and glances at her colleagues watching one of them already walk out to make a phone call. '' I am bound to call the child service here even though there is no physical abuse here, there is something called non-physical abuse and that does include swearing too much around children.''
She turns to the Lopez family and smiles kindly. '' Any more questions?''
Brittany shakes her head and bites her lip. '' No, thank you so much for your time today Mrs Ryan.''
'' Anytime Mrs and Mrs Lopez, I hope that Nicolas and Alexander enjoy school from now on.''
'' We hope so too Mrs Ryan.'' Santana says while she stands up, she helps her boys put their jackets back on and watches Quinn and her wife walk over to shake Mrs Ryan's hand, she follows their lead softly telling the boys to say goodbye as well and follows her wife out of the room as soon as they thanked everyone.
Brittany immediately walks out of the building and leans against the wall taking a deep breath. '' Well that went all into our favor.''
Quinn snickers and nods her head. '' It sure did, I am glad the boys can stay at the school though.''
Santana sighs leaning against the wall beside her wife and intertwines their hands running her free hand through Nico's hair as he leans against her. '' Yeah I am too, the boys both love the programs offered there.''
Nico looks up at her and smiles brightly. '' I am just glad that I can stay in the team, coach King already put in a good word for me to the high school coach.''
'' I hope you will stay out of fights from now on smiley.'' Brittany murmurs smiling lovingly, she runs a hand through her hair and smiles. '' I think this calls for a celebration lunch.'' She looks at Q and winks. '' Call your wife, our treat.''
'' We won't turn down free food B.'' Quinn murmurs laughing, she pulls out her phone and walks down the stairs.
Brittany chuckles and leans down kissing her boys heads. '' Ready to go home and spend the weekend filled with family?''
She smiles as they nod their heads and points at her car parked in front of Quinn's a bit away from the building. '' Lead the way my loves.''
She smiles as they run down the steps towards her car and follows them after intertwining her hands with her wife's not noticing the door behind them open and two fuming people walk out while talking in heated whispers, she unlocks her car as soon as the boys are near and pulls Santana close kissing her head. '' They have a new spring in their step.''
Santana stops walking and turns to her wife after watching their boys talk excitedly, she wraps her arms around her waist and leans up onto her tiptoes kissing her softly. '' That is because they love the sacred heart academics baby, they offer so much that they love that leaving the thought of leaving the school saddened them.''
'' Ugh close your eyes Daniel, Satan will come and get you when you see them kiss no wonder their kids are so aggressive the devil is already inside them!'' Mrs brown murmurs as she walks past them with her son and husband.
'' Excuse me?'' Brittany asks turning on her heels to looks at Mrs Brown, Mrs Brown turns to glare at her and huffs.
'' You heard me, you might have won in front of the board but our church will never accept bitches like you and your filthy kids, I hope they will burn in hell.''
'' Oh fuck.'' Quinn mutters quickly telling her wife what's happening before ending the call, she runs past Mrs Brown as she sees Brittany lung for her and grabs her around the waist holding on tight. '' No Britt!''
*Slap *
She turns her head as she hears the non mistakable sound of a hand slapping a cheek and her eyes widen as she sees Santana towering over Mrs Brown after she slapped her, she feels Brittany tense in her arms and quickly turns on her heels keeping the blonde behind her.
'' ¡Lárgate de aquí, perra! ¡Si una palabra más sobre mi familia deja tu maldita boca, la cerraré por ti!'' Santana sneers glaring down at the god loving bitch clutching her cheek while looking up at her in shock.
'' Shit, Snixx.'' Brittany and Quinn both murmurs in shock.
