Sunday 19th of September
After their first date, the girls had spent every free moment they had together. The whole of the previous day had been spent watching TV, cuddling and getting their mack on.
The girls laid next to one other on Brittany's bed staring at the laptop on the taller girls lap. They were scrolling through Instagram.
"Eww! Why do you follow that troll?" Santana asked referring to the video of Rachel Berry which sat before her.
Brittany shrugged. "She's sounds kinda good when you close your eyes. Go on try it!"
Santana closed her eyes and listened to Berry belting out some Broadway tune. She had to admit, the troll could sing. Then she stopped listening when she felt Brittany's lips press lightly into hers.
She smiled into the kiss. Kissing Brittany was the best feeling in the world and she could never get enough of it. Brittany pulled away and smiled down at the brunette.
"Sorry. I just couldn't resist" Brittany said with a smirk.
"Never apologize for doing that" Santana responded with a giggle and a wink.
Brittany continued to scroll through her feed and then stopped. She shut the laptop, placed it on the nightstand and turned to Santana with a serious face.
"What are we?" Brittany asked. She had really enjoyed her new relationship with Santana but didn't really know how to define it.
"Well we're girls, we're 16, we're human, we're alive... " Santana trailed off, not really knowing what she had been asked.
"No what are we? Like what is our status?" Brittany explained.
"Well I don't know Britt." Santana said as she sat up. Suddenly realizing the seriousness of the conversation. "I like you, you like me. We're really good at kissing" she said the last bit with a smug grin.
"Well what if I called you my girlfriend?" Brittany enquired.
"I think that would be great as long as I can call you, my girlfriend" Santana countered.
Brittany just smiled and brought her girlfriend in for a kiss. It was then quickly interrupted by Brittany jumping off the bed and running around the room doing her 'happy dance'. Santana watched her, pulled out her phone and snapped a picture.
The picture was of Brittany jumping in the air with a look of pure happiness. It summed up how both girls were feeling perfectly.
"Hey!" Brittany stopped and dancing and placed her hands on her hips. "I saw you take a picture" she said in feigned annoyance.
"I don't know what you're talking about" Santana lied, her brows furrowed.
"Let me see" Brittany said reaching for Santana's phone.
"NO" Santana teased her and pulled her phone out of her girlfriends reach.
"Right! That's it!" The blonde stated. She jumped onto the bed and straddled the Latina to pin her down. Santana wriggled beneath her but couldn't move.
Brittany grabbed the phone, quickly looked at the picture and then tossed the phone across the bed. She looked down at the brunette with a suspicious looking glare. She brought her hands up so Santana could see them and started rapidly moving her fingers before digging them into her girlfriend's sides.
"Brittany no!" Santana cried out in between giggles. Brittany was a monster tickler. "Ahh" she screamed. "Stop! I can't breathe!" Brittany finally released the girl from the tickle torture and started laughing with her.
"Now for part 2 of your punishment" Brittany said with a smirk. She leant down and kissed her girlfriend. The kiss was firm and passionate. The girls continued kissing for a few minutes as they celebrated their new found relationship status.
"That's a punishment I wouldn't mind receiving more often" Santana said as they pulled apart.
Brittany rolled over and grabbed Santana's phone and started typing something.
"Britt, what are you doing?" She queried.
"Nothing..." she said, drawing out the word so it was unnecessarily long.
Brittany passed the phone back to Santana who took it reluctantly. Her eyes narrowed onto the pale face that sat in front of her.
The front door opened and closed, signally that Brittany's family was home from their grocery shop. The girls made their way downstairs to share the news.
Brittany and Santana were sat next to each other at the table. Opposite them were Susan and David. Zoe was sat on her fathers lap.
"So what I wanted to tell you guys is that... umm... well" Brittany started, not really sure how to break the news. Santana reached for the blondes hand under the table and intertwined their fingers. She looked at Brittany and gave her a nod, giving her reassurance.
"Well Santana and I are now officially girlfriends." Brittany said with confidence. They sat there waiting for the reactions.
Zoe was the first to get up. She made her way around the table and climbed into Santana's lap. "Yay Tana!" She squealed as she wrapped her little arms around the brunette's neck. "Now you can see me more!" Zoe further enhanced.
"Sure can kiddo" she replied with a smile. Brittany watched the interaction and loved Zoe's enthusiasm.
Zoe crawled off Santana and skipped her way out of the room. Susan was the next to stand up. She pulled both the girls into a hug with a huge grin on her face.
"I'm happy for you both. I couldn't have wished for Brittany to be with anyone else" she said in a genuine voice.
"I completely agree" David stated as he hugged each of the girls. "But Santana as much as we love you.." David's face dropped with sudden seriousness "don't hurt our Brittany" he said with raised eyebrows.
"I wouldn't dream of hurting her" Santana reassured the married couple and smiles returned to all four of their faces. They all sat back down at the table and began chatting.
After about an hour, Santana's parents made it home and the new couple had the same talk with the Latina's parents.
"Santana honey, we love you." Raphael started "but don't ever hurt Brittany alright?" He finished with a stern face.
Santana said the exact same thing as she did before. "I wouldn't dream of hurting her" she repeated.
Santana's parents brought her and Brittany in for a hug.
"We're so glad you're here Brittany. You're exactly what Santana needs right now" Maribel said with a friendly smile, her hand rested on the blonde's shoulder. Brittany just smiled and nodded in response.
"Well, I think that went well" Brittany said as she sat down on Santana's bed.
"I completely agree" Santana replied as she slumped down next to her.
The girls continued to chat about their parents reactions and the day as a whole.
"I'm really glad you're my girlfriend" Santana said as she climbed up the bed and laid down so she rested against the headboard.
"And I'm really glad you're my girlfriend" Brittany reiterated and she laid down beside the brunette. She rested her head on her girlfriend's chest and draped her arm across her stomach so she could cuddle into her side.
Santana placed her hand on Brittany's back and lightly drew circles on it. She took in a deep breath and enjoyed the scent of lavender shampoo that came from blonde hair.
The girls just laid there in silence for a while. It wasn't awkward, they were just blissfully enjoying each other's company.
A while later, Brittany had to go home. After a kiss goodbye, Santana was left alone. She got changed for bed and brushed her teeth.
She crawled into her plain grey bed sheets and smiled at the trace of lavender shampoo that was left on her spare pillow. She grabbed her phone and looked at the picture she took today of her girlfriend. That was her new favourite photo. She made a mental note to get it framed. Then she opened her message app and tapped on Brittany's contact. She laughed at her phone as she now understood Brittany's strange behavior from earlier.

So that's what you were doing today! Changing your name in my phone.
She smiled as she waited for a reply.
From Brittany My Amazing Girlfriend [22:43]
I thought you needed to change it up a bit. It's much more fitting :P
Goodnight Girlfriend x
Santana typed again.
To Brittany My Amazing Girlfriend [22:44]

She turned her phone face down and snuggled into her Brittany-scented pillow and smiled at the day's events which replayed over and over in her mind.
