"What are you going to do tonight?" Quinn queried as she zipped up her boots.
"I thought I might go and visit my folks, I have a new car to show off after all."
A wide grin spread across Santana's face. She did want to show off her shiny new toy but of course she had also arranged for some of their closest friends to meet at her parents place to help her with proposal ideas.
"Awww can't you wait till the weekend? Then I can come."
"Ha ha Q we can go again on the weekend."
"Ooookay." Quinn pouted.
"Are you having withdrawals from my parents my love?"
"Yes….and I bet your Mom makes something ridiculously yummy and I'll miss out."
"How about I promise to bring you some of whatever she may make?"
"I'd love you forever."
"You plan on doing that anyway."
"Yeah but I'll love you just that little bit more."
"Well I can't be turning down extra love can I? It will likely come in handy when I piss you off and need something to fall back on."
"Always good to have reserves San."
Quinn stood from her chair and straddled her younger lover.
"You know those boots just make me want to get you naked."
"I'll remember to leave them on when I get home then."
"Great idea."
They laughed into a deep goodbye kiss.

"She just gave this to you?"
"Yep."
"Well I kind of always assumed you would be great in the sack but I never knew you were this good."
"You're a fucking funny guy Kurt."
"Ha ha I think I need to find me a sugar Daddy."
"Quinn is not a sugar Momma, extremely generous and super wealthy yes but not a sugar Momma."
"Who does that? I mean who just buys someone a brand new customized car?"
"Quinn apparently."
"This proposal better be fucking top notch San."
"Speaking of we had better go back inside."
Santana shut the door to the car and made her way back to the living room with her friend.

"Fireworks definitely." Mercedes agreed with Kurt.
"I'm not sure about fireworks guys." Santana was starting to get overwhelmed there were so many ideas being thrown around but she had yet to finalize any plans.
"Yeah I don't think fireworks would be a good idea you want her focused on you and not what's in the sky." Steph added.
This was the problem Santana was having, one friend would suggest one thing and another friend would argue its negatives. Maybe getting people together wasn't such a good idea.
"Although I'm sure there will be fireworks when she says yes right San?" Dani elbowed her gently.
"Mija can you help me with some snacks?" Maribel could sense her daughters growing agitation and figured a short time out would do her good.
"Si Mami of course." The Latina followed her Mom to the kitchen who turned to face her the second the door shut behind them.
"Santana this proposal is about you and Quinn it doesn't need to be a spectacle it simply needs to be from the heart.
"I know Mami I just want it to be as amazing as she is."
"That's the thing my baby girl Quinn has already got the gift that is as amazing as she is because she has you."
"Thanks Mami although you are a little biased I'm sure."
Santana hugged her Mom closely.
"You need to decide what you want to do Santana and then all of these people can help you with that plan. Don't let them decide what the plan is going to be though. You know Quinn best, you know deep down how to make this magical."
"I just suck putting things together."
"And that's when all these lovely people are going to come in handy."
"Yeah you are right…..I kinda think I have an idea though."
"Good girl now go and tell your lovely friends what you need them to do."

"Yes of course! That I can totally arrange." Kurt wiggled in his seat excitedly.
"And Steph?"
"If you can keep her away from the bar for a couple of nights before hand of course I can."
"I think we can help with that Santana a family get together at the cabin could be arranged on pretty short notice." Quinn's Aunt stated as she cleared the table of empty dishes.
"Ohh I know the perfect place for it! Sam honey do you remember that place we had your company Christmas party at a few years ago?" Mercedes added from her seat across the room.
"Oh yeah that would totally be awesome and they have that garden bar where we could set the lights up in."
"Can you check if it's available?"
"Of course Santana I will be on the phone first thing in the morning." Mercedes winked at her.
"You're on lights then?"
Dani looked towards Sam with pad and pen in hand.
"Yeah absolutely."
Santana smiled widely everything was finally beginning to come together.

"That sounds extremely fun are you sure I'm allowed to come?"
"Of course you are, all members of the band get a plus one."
"And who is it for?"
"Just some corporate thing, you know me I just show up and sing."
"We had better go shopping this weekend….new dresses and masks."
Quinn pulled the sheet back and joined her girlfriend in bed.
"Of course! And I know a great place."
"Yay it's been ages since I've been to a masquerade."
"Me too in fact I think my last was my prom."
"Ha ha so not too many years ago San."
"Hey it's been long enough."
"You're still a young spring chicken." Quinn kissed the tip of her nose
"Which I'm sure you are thankful for….especially when it comes to my bedroom prowess."
"Oh I'm more than thankful for that my love just as long as you can put up with old creaky bones here trying to keep up."
"You're an idiot Q."
"I'm your idiot."
"You are indeed, come here creaky."
Santana pulled Quinn into her body and kissed her softly.

"That sounds really great let me know if I can help you out in anyway."
"Well I will need a date."
"Dani I don't think that would be wholly appropriate."
"Why not?"
"It's Santana and Quinn's night, me being there would just be weird."
"For you?"
"For them!"
"I think they would be ok with it."
"I don't know I think it's just one of those lines that shouldn't be crossed."
"Can I run it past Santana and check? I really want to go with you."
Dani stuck out her bottom lip before beginning an assault on Shelby's neck.
"Mmm Dan."
"If she says yes will you come?"
"I…..I don't…oh god." Shelby's eyes rolled as the blondes tongue slid across her collar bone.
"I'm going to take that as a maybe." Dani giggled against her skin.
"Shall we take this to the bedroom?"
"No I'd quite like to christen my new living room if you don't mind."
Dani stood from the sofa removed her top agonizingly slowly.
"I don't mind."
Shelby grinned as she hooked her fingers in Dani's belt loops and pulled her back on top of her.
"I don't mind at all."

"Oh I'm not sure Aunty Julie I've got quite a bit on at work at the moment and Santana has a gig coming up as well."
It was Saturday morning and Quinn and Santana were getting ready to go dress shopping and to check out a few new house listings.
"When is Santana's gig?"
"Friday night."
"I was thinking we could all go on Wednesday you could both head back on Friday."
"I don't know I'll check it with San and let you know."
"Ok sweetheart it's just been such a long time since we have all had a proper family catch up."
"Yeah I know and I miss our time at lake I will let you know soon."
"Ok talk soon darling."
"Ok love you."
Quinn ended the call and sat on the end of the bed to tie the laces on her Converse.
"What are you checking with me my love?"
"That was Aunty Julie she wondered if we would be interested in going to the Lake for a couple of days."
"With them?"
"Yeah some family time and all that."
"Just us?"
"I think Dani and Shelby are going to."
"Hmmmm."
"You don't want to go do you?"
"No it's not that….do you want to go?"
"A little."
"A little?"
"Well yeah I do but I'm not sure about the bar and do you have any rehearsals for Friday at all?"
"I have one on Thursday but I could just come back for that as it shouldn't take too long."
"I guess I could talk to Steph, if I do the next 4 nights she may be ok to do the end of the week."
"You know she will Q."
"So it's a yes then?"
"I think it's a yes."
"Ok great I'll just text Steph and Julie and we can head out."
"I'll meet you in the car."
Santana kissed her cheek before grabbing her keys and heading down the stairs.
Quinn picked up her phone and quickly fired off two texts.
- - - Hey Steph can we do a few shift swaps? Family thing happening Wed-Fri.
- - - We are in just as long as I can get cover at work xxx
Slipping her phone into her pocket she made her way to join Santana in the car.
- - - Looks like we are all going on a family vacay. S xx
Santana hit send on her message to Dani just as Quinn opened the door, she knew the blonde would get word out that the plan was all go.
"Shopping first or houses?" Quinn queried as she sat in the passenger seat.
"Hmmm I say dresses, then food, then masks, then houses."
"Sounds good to me babe."
Quinn slipped her sunglasses up into her hair and began to shuffle through the music to find something to listen to.
"What's wrong with what I have on?"
"It's too early for Metallica San."
"Psshhh it's never too early for Metallica."

"Jesus Quinn you cannot wear that dress."
"What! Why?" Quinn frowned as she turned to the side, she thought it looked good.
"I have to sing at this gig you know."
The blonde couldn't hide the smirk that spread across her face, she had already had a similar reaction when Santana had tried on a particular dress moments earlier.
"And how will my dress prevent you from doing that?"
"Fucking look at you!"
"I think it makes my ass look good don't you?"
Quinn turned and looked over her shoulder seductively.
Santana glanced around the shop making sure all the assistants were busy before pushing a giggling Quinn into the changing room and launching an attack on her lips.
"Don't…..mmm….don't get us kicked…out of here San."
Quinn mumbled in between kisses.
"I thought you may need some help with the zipper on this one."
Santana's fingers found the zipper on the side of the dress and pulled it down slowly, her thigh pushed against the blondes' core causing a groan to fall from Quinn's lips.
"Is everything ok in there?" A females voice rang out from behind the door.
"Yep… fine thanks." Quinn answered after pushing Santana back slightly.
"Can I get you anything else?"
"We are good." Santana replied dismissively.
"Ok do you need any more help?"
"For fucks sake." Santana groaned against Quinn's neck.
"No we'll be right out just getting dressed." Quinn pushed Santana back once again and took a step to the side.
"Ok no problem." the overly cheery voice called from the other side.
"She's going to stay out there isn't she?" Santana asked in a flustered whisper.
"I think so…..come on let's buy these and get out of here." Quinn squeezed the younger woman's hand and began to step into her jeans.
Santana grunted as she bent down to pick up the dress that had pooled on the floor and put it back on the hanger.

"Hold up…ok driveway first impressions."
"San are you going to do this throughout the whole place?"
"No…well maybe. Look if we both don't agree on something as simple as a first impression from the street we can save ourselves some time and not even bother going in."
"Yeah yeah I get it and I like it." Quinn smiled at the brunette before taking her hand.
"I do too, although that tree would have to go."
"What's wrong with the tree?"
"It looks like a penis and I aint having anything phallic looking in my home."
"Ok I think we can agree on removing the tree." Quinn chuckled.
"Fuck this is so much classier than it looks online."
Santana looked around in awe as they walked through the front door.
"It's beautiful isn't it? I thought you might like this one."
"Modern but still homely."
"Come look upstairs." Quinn pulled the girl past a few other viewers talking to the agent and headed straight for the staircase.
"Shouldn't we stay with the group Q?"
"It's ok Justin knows me and he trusts me."
Justin was the agent that had been helping them find viewings and who coincidently was also running todays open home.
"Well it ticks all the boxes for me…what's wrong with it?"
"Huh?"
"Well I love it, but I loved one last week as well so now should be the time when you tell what you don't like about it and why it wouldn't be a good idea."
"What makes you think there are things I don't like?"
"I can guarantee there are things you don't like and you've been looking at me as though there is something on the tip of your tongue the whole time we've been up here."
"Ok fine there are a few minor things….all easily remedied however. I've been looking at you like that because I was hoping you loved it as much as I do."
"Easily remedied huh? How many walls are we going to have to take down?…..wait what? You actually LOVE it love it? As in you would actually make an offer on it?"
"Yeah if you want to."
Quinn giggled as she was picked up off the floor and spun in circles.
"What the hell are we waiting for blondie? Let's go and corner Justin before anyone else gets a chance."
