''Will you officially become mi mama? Will you adopt me?''
Brittany looks down at the envelope still held securely in Santana's and Bella's hands and gulps, she sniffles tears streaming down her face as she slowly nods her head and lifts her head locking eyes with Bella. ''C'mere sweetie.''
She takes Bella into her arms taking the envelope from her and places her in her lap, she places the envelope next to them keeping their eyes locked ignoring the tears streaming down her face and smiles. ''Yes.'' She whispers softly.
She cups her little cheeks in her hands wiping away the tears streaming down Bella's cheeks and sniffles. ''I would love to adopt you sweetie.'' She pulls her in a hug choking out a sob and nuzzles her face in her dark locks rubbing her back as she feels tears sliding down her neck. ''I love you Bell's.''
''Te amo mama.'' Bella murmurs tearfully, Brittany gulps turning to her girlfriend tears still streaming down her cheeks and gulps. She lifts one arm silently calling her over and pulls her against her side as soon as she slides towards them, she pulls her in a hug burying her face in her dark locks and sniffles.
''Thank you.'' She breaths out softly, she gulps as she looks up at her and runs her hand down Bella's back feeling her cuddle into the both of them. ''Thank you for making my dream come true.'' She elaborates, she glances down at the little girl contently cuddled into her chest and gulps as she looks up at her with a big smile tear tracks on her cheek still visible. ''Thank you for giving my own family, for sharing your..''
Santana shushes her softly with a peck on the lips and smiles lovingly tears clear in her own eyes. ''Our daughter mi amor, she is ours since you walked into our lives and that will never change.''
Bella leans up wrapping her little arms around Brittany's shoulders and nuzzles her face in her neck, Santana smiles lovingly pushing the button on her phone to stop the recording and turns to her girlfriend leaning up to kiss her cheek. ''I love you Britt-Britt and I love to see you and our daughter together, you are her mama just as much as I am her mami and I want it on paper too.''
She cups her girlfriends cheek wiping away her tears with the pad of her thumb and bites her lip. ''I talked with Marley about it and she gave me all the papers we need to sign, I would like to change Bell's birth certificate too.''
She smiles nervously as she sees Brittany's eyebrows raise questioningly and gulps. ''If you like, I would love to have your name in it too. We never know what will happen in our lives Britt-Britt, but if something happens to me I will know that our daughter is safe and happy with you.''
''Babe.'' Brittany mumbles softly, she pulls her closer kissing her softly and groans as the doorbell rings. ''God they have the worst timing.'' She turns her head to look at the door and leans back making sure she can't yell in Bella's or Santana's ear. ''Use the key!'' She turns back to the girlfriend as she hears the door unlock and bites her lip. ''Talk more tonight?''
Santana nods her head grabbing the envelope and slides it into the drawer of the coffee table where they keep all other important documents, she turns to their friends smiling as they all walk in singing happy birthday and reaches out taking Bella back in her arms.
Bella cuddles into her watching her mama hug their family and looks up at her mami. ''Is mama happy?'' She asks softly so only she can hear her, Santana kisses her forehead and smiles lovingly.
''She is mija, she loves your gift and she loves that she will be your mama officially soon.'' She looks up smiling as she sees their family walking towards them and kisses Bella's head once again. ''Let's say hi and enjoy the day mi corazón.''
She places Bella into Quinn's arms the second she walks over to them and nods her head as they all look at her raising a questioning eyebrow, Emily squeals the second she sees Santana's nod and turns on her heels tackling her sister in a hug. ''You are and will stay the best mama!''
Santana smiles as Mercedes hugs her and quickly kisses her cheek leaning back against Puck and Marley as they join the hug. ''Thank you for talking to me whenever the nerves were getting too much, seeing the love in her eyes showed me that it was the best and easiest decision I ever made in my life.''
''You can see that she loves the both of you and you just made her whole life S.'' Marley tells her as she watches Brittany and Bella joke around with the group, Puck nods his head in agreement and smiles.
''You sure did S.'' He leans down kissing her cheek and hugs her tightly. ''Thank you for making my best friend slash sister so happy S, I don't think I saw her smile so brightly before.''
Mercedes waits till the two of them walks away and pulls Santana in a hug kissing her cheek. ''First of all hello, second of all you ready?''
Santana tenses glancing over at her girlfriend and gulps. ''Not sure Cedes.''
Mercedes looks at the time and bites her lip. ''Well you have a few more minutes to calm yourself down S, they will play it in ten minutes.''
''Hey B, sit down we have a gift for you too.'' Puck tells his best friend pushing her on the couch, Mercedes snickers letting go of Santana and shoots her a wink.
''That will distract her a bit, go grab a glass of water San.''
Santana nods her head slipping into the kitchen without her girlfriend noticing it and reaches into the cupboard grabbing a glass, she fills it with tap water leaning against the kitchen counter and looks into the living room smiling lovingly as she sees her daughter cuddled into Brittany while they look at the gifts she got together.
She locks eyes with Mercedes slowly nodding her head as she notices that five minutes already passed by and slowly walks back into the living room after downing the glass of water, she walks to the back of the couch standing behind her girlfriend as Mercedes turns the TV on and locks eyes with her daughter slightly nodding her head to Quinn silently telling her to cuddle with her godmothers.
Mercedes sits down beside her best friend and pats her leg. ''Hey Soldier?''
''Yes Superstar?''
''I have one more gift for you.''
Brittany shakes her head and frowns. ''No this is already too much guys, I don't need something else.''
''Shut up.'' Mercedes tells her smirking as she turns to look at her with an eyebrow raised, she turns to volume of the TV louder and leans back. ''Just listen.''
Alright you guys it's time for the best newcomer of the day, this song was send in to us last Friday but with the note signed by the one and only Mercedes Jones to play it today. So let's listen and after the song I will tell you all a bit more about the singer.
Santana leans against the back of the couch making sure not to announce her presence yet and hears her girlfriend gasp softly the second she hears her voice filter through the speakers.
It's hard for me to say the things
I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that broken old street light
She smiles slightly as their friends all turn to her in shock and slowly leans her elbows on the back of the couch lowering her mouth near her girlfriends ear. Brittany gulps the second she hears her girlfriend whisper the song right into her ear and raises her hand running it down her face trying to push back her tears, she licks her lips looking down at the hand placed on her shoulder and exhales softly.
Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I
Santana walks around the couch as she sees her girlfriend pinch the bridge of her nose leaning forward to try to hide showing everyone that she is crying and sits down in her lap, she cups her cheek pulling her head up licking her lips as tear filled blue orbs lock on her own and softly sings the song to her running her thumb over her cheekbone.
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me
Brittany chokes out a sob hearing the emotions in her girlfriends voice the second she sings to her and curls her arm around her waist pulling her closer not noticing their friends dab away their tears and Cedes recording them, she buries her face in her girlfriends shoulder and sniffles. ''Fuck, babe.''
I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes
The sky's a different blue
Cross my heart
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you believed my lies
Santana kisses the top of her head hugging her tightly and swallows away the lump in her throat. ''Thank you for everything you did and will do. Thank you for being the best mama to our daughter, for being the best girlfriend I could've dreamed of and for being the best, best friend one could've wished for. Your are all in one and I am so happy that I get to call you mine.'' She pulls her head up wiping away her tears and sniffles herself. ''I love you Britt-Britt, proudly so.''
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
''I love you too.'' Brittany murmurs tearfully, she buries her face back into her shoulder keeping her arms wrapped tightly around her waist and sniffles. ''So, so much my love.''
So guys I would say we have a new song in the top ten don't you all think? This song wasn't quite finished yet but the singer who goes by the name Santana, still wanted to publish it because it's her girlfriends birthday today. I don't know who her girlfriend is but I would say that she is the luckiest gal on this planet to be together with someone who has such an angelic voice!
''Sure am.'' Brittany murmurs voice thick with tears, she smiles slightly as their friends all coo softly and pulls Bella on her lap as she walks over to them.
I would also say that Santana gives Mercedes a run for her money but if they publish a duet together which will come soon, I am sure they will be the next top hit of this year!
Brittany hums in agreement glancing at her best friend sitting beside her and reaches out squeezing her hand after kissing Bella's head, she wraps her arm back around the little girl as she nuzzles her face in her chest knowing she is tired and runs her hand up her back. ''Take a nap sweetie.''
That is all for tonight guys but tune in tomorrow for another hit from Santana, it's called This is my now and it is just amazing!
Brittany turns to her girlfriend and bites her lip. ''You finally cashed in your eighteenth birthday gift?'' She asks shocked, Santana nods her head and smiles slightly.
''Yeah I will graduate soon and Superstar over there kept bugging me about recording a song with her because she wrote it meant to be a duet, so we compromised and decided to leave my last name completely away.''
''We made an Instagram profile with her name based on her music where she can post pictures of her life too, but it's separated from her private account so no one can find that one.'' Mercedes adds quickly reassuring her best friend knowing she will worry about her girlfriends and Bella's well being, she reaches out patting Santana's leg and smiles slightly. ''Your girl will storm the charts within a few hours B, she surprised my manager and she offered her an contract.''
''Which we will talk about tonight as soon as everyone left.'' Santana tells her cutting Mercedes off, she leans in pecking her girlfriend on the lips making sure not to jostle their napping daughter and smiles lovingly. ''For now we will celebrate your birthday, but first I will tuck Bell's in.''
Brittany looks up at her as soon as she stands and slowly stands up herself adjusting her hold on the little girl cuddled into her chest, she turns to their friends and smiles slightly the emotions still clearly written on her face. ''We will be right back.''
She follows her girlfriend out of the living room as soon as they nodded their heads smiling knowingly and follows her down the hallway to Bella's room, she follows her inside helping Bella take her jeans off mid walk and places her down on the bed.
She tucks her in smiling lovingly as she immediately grabs the worn out lion teddy she bought her three years ago and leans down kissing her head. ''Love you sweetie.'' She steps back letting her girlfriend kiss Bella's head and leans against the doorpost watching her with a loving smile, she steps back as she walks out of the room after taking the hair ribbon out and pulls her in her arms the second she closed the door. ''I am so proud of you.''
She smiles slightly as she looks up at her frowning in confusion and leans down kissing her softly. ''You are finally living your dream and I am sure everyone will love your music, you will graduate soon and I know we will talk about the contract tonight but if you decide to take it you have your career already waiting for you.''
''I couldn't have done it without you though.'' Santana murmurs softly, she wraps her arms around her shoulders and pulls her down into a kiss.
Brittany hums softly tilting her head to deepen the kiss leaning back against the wall beside their bedroom and bites back a moan as Santana's tongue slips past her lips, she slowly pulls out of the kiss as they hear their friends laugh and leans their foreheads together. ''Do we have to go spend time with them?''
Santana nods her head and chuckles. ''It's your birthday mi amor, to be continued tho.''
''I will hold you to that.'' Brittany murmurs softly smiling lovingly, Santana bites her lip sliding a finger between her chest over her abs and smirks as she hears her breathing hitch.
''Patience Britt-Britt.''
''Tease.'' Brittany grumbles softly grabbing her hand before she can trail her finger further down, she pulls her back into her arms and pecks her on the lips. ''I love you Santana, thank you for trusting me and for giving me a daughter. Words can't even describe how happy you make me.''
''Maybe words can't but your eyes can, your eyes are filled with love Britt-Britt and if anyone has to thank someone it's me. Thank you for being the best girlfriend, mother and friend, now and forever mi amor.''
''Now and forever, proudly so love.''
