"Ugh I hate waiting."
Santana paced back and forth around the room.
"Sweetie you have to have patience." Quinn's hand on her arm stilled her movements.
"How long does it take them to accept an offer though? I mean it either is what you want or it isn't"
"San it's probably more to do with the estate agents doing their part."
"Earning their commission more like."
"Well yeah I guess they do have to earn it."
"I just want to know."
"Me too but I'm fairly confident we will get it."
"Unless one of those other annoying couples made an offer higher than ours."
"We have room to move if we need to counter offer."
"I guess what will be will be right?"
"You got it, now why don't you sit down next to me and give me some lovin."
Quinn patted the cushion next to her on the sofa.
"Lovin? Really Q?"
"Well I could have said hey sexy come sit down so I can get my mack on."
Quinn did her best impression of the woman in front of her.
"I don't sound like that." Santana huffed as she took a seat.
"Ha ha yes you do my love. But its ok coz I love it."
She cupped the brunette's cheek and closed the distance, capturing addictive red lips with her own.

"We may have to cancel our mini vacay." Quinn stated as she slipped in the bed next to Santana.
"What? Why?"
"We have to make appointments at the bank and lawyers San."
"Q our offer has been accepted the hand over date is in 6 weeks we have plenty of time."
"You don't think we need to get things under way sooner rather than later?"
"No, however I do think you need to get over here sooner rather than later."
Santana opened her arms and Quinn quickly took place in her strong embrace.
"We are buying a house together baby." Quinn traced her finger tips over Santana's forearm.
"We are and it's a fucking great house."
"It really is huh."
A cute smirk fell across the blondes face, she was so blissfully happy.
"Did you want to move in right away or get the renovations done first?"
"I think we will get them done first, Rach insisted she wasn't in a hurry to sell this place so we can take our time."
"It's a full one eighty from the sexy blonde folks!" Santana laughed at Quinn's change of heart. Only a few hours ago she was talking about living in a hotel room.
"Hey give me a break." Quinn elbowed her gently.
"Ha ha ok my love."
"You know what else you could give me?"
"An amazing orgasm?"
"Well I was going for an amazing kiss but play your cards right and that may just follow."
"Yes ma'am." Santana chuckled as she pulled Quinn's body hard up against her own.

"Hello ladies, is there more you want me to get?" Quinn's Uncle queried as he opened the door and noted their arms laden with shopping bags
"I think there are a couple more in the back."
Quinn smiled at him as he bent down to kiss her cheek.
"You do know we are only here for a couple of day's right?" He called out after his niece.
"But we gotta eat Uncle Rob." Santana winked at him as he kissed her also.
"I like the sound of that." Rob said quietly even though Quinn was well out of ear shot.
"Me too."
"I'll get the other things and then we can open the champagne."
"Champagne?"
"We have a house purchase to celebrate don't we?"
"Yes! Yes we do." A large smile spread across the Latina's face as it did every time she thought about their new home.
"I think we are set if the apocalypse happens." Dani laughed as she proceeded to forage through the bags Quinn had placed on the counter.
"We weren't sure what to get."
"I stated snacks honey not the whole aisle."
Julie Davis wrapped her arm around her niece tightly.
"Well the cupboards can be re-stocked a little."
"Oh don't worry I'm sure my daughter will make a good dent in what you have brought."
Dani almost managed an offended look as she placed a Dorito in her mouth from the newly opened pack in her hand before shrugging in defeat and agreeing with her Mom's statement.
"I didn't think you were here yet, your car isn't here." Santana added as she stuck her hand in the bag and took a handful.
"Oh we came in Shelby's car and she just popped out to get our wine supplies."
"You know she is going to be gone for age's right?"
"Why?"
"Shelby has specific tastes Dan she is going to read all the labels, take note of all the awards they've won."
"Crap I should have gone with her."
"I say you've made the right call I'd much rather be in the spa than reading wine bottles." Quinn stole a chip from Santana's hand.
"But then I'll have to look at you love sick puppies the whole time and I won't have anyone to distract me."
"Ok first rule ladies please remember we are both here and we do not wish to have your obviously active sex lives thrown in our faces."
Quinn and Dani both blushed scarlet.
"Ha ha shamed out by the Mom." Santana laughed.
"That rule applies to you too Santana I'm sure you aren't innocent in all of it."
Santana's cheeks reddened quickly.
"Aww Aunty Julie you made her blush." Quinn kissed the tip of the brunettes' nose before moving to put things away.
"I'm going to take our bags to the room." Santana mumbled quietly making all three of the blondes in the room laugh loudly.

"Jesus Shelby we aren't alcoholics."
Santana took a box from the older brunette as she entered the house.
"I forgot to ask what everyone liked so I got a variety and some beers and some cider."
"Are these all reds?"
"Yeah so it's just this box that needs to go in the fridge."
"I can handle that."
"Thanks I will grab the beers and cider."
Shelby returned a few minutes later and helped Santana to stock the fridge.
"This is going to go ok right?"
"The alcohol?"
"No the next few days, Quinn is truly ok with me being here?"
"Yeah she's cool, your girlfriends Mom has already put the hard word on all of us though."
"Does she think we are going to argue?"
"No she doesn't want to see or hear any sexy times."
"Oh thank Christ I wasn't here for that I think I would have died."
"They are human Shel I'm sure they have figured out you are sleeping with their daughter."
"Yeah but I don't need verbal confirmation that they know that."
"That who knows what?"
Quinn's voice made them both jump which made her smirk.
"She's glad she wasn't here for the no sex talk."
"Oh right…well technically it wasn't a NO sex talk San."
"We just got to get creative you think?"
Santana tugged Quinn's hand and pulled her into a kiss.
"Ugh I think I might be with Julie on this one after all." Shelby winked at them both before making her way out the back to give them some privacy.

"I'm serious Santana was covered in chocolate sauce and whipped cream."
"Dani shut the hell up."
Santana grumbled as Dani continued to tell her parents and Shelby about the first night they met. Quinn squeezed her hand gently managing to stifle her laughter.
"This conversation is getting a little bit too much information for me so I think I'm going to head to bed." Rob stood from his chair and kissed his wife's cheek.
"I'll be in in a minute honey." Julie called after him.
"Sorry Mom I possibly should have kept that one to myself."
"You think?" Santana asked from across the table.
"Its fine baby girl but now I'm thinking we may have to make sundaes tomorrow for dessert."
Santana groaned loudly and Quinn rubbed her thigh under the table.
"Oh Santana sweetie you are going to have to get used to this family. You too Shelby."
Julie rose to her feet and began to gather empty glasses.
"Leave those I'll take them in." Shelby quickly took them from the older blondes' hands.
"Thanks. Ok ladies I'm going to join your father I'll see you all in the morning."
"Night ma." Dani replied.
"Sweet dreams." Shelby added.
"Don't let the bed bugs bite." Quinn threw in.
"Or Uncle Rob." Santana called out loudly with a wide grin earning a smack on the arm from Quinn.
"Hey I've been the butt of everyone's jokes all night I was entitled to that."
"Yeah yeah but I don't want those visuals in my head San."
"You want me to give you some other visuals?"
"NO!" Dani and Shelby said in unison.
"You guys are no fun." Santana threw a couple of cashew nuts in their direction.
"Are you guys keen for a game of cards against humanity?" Quinn asked before the gesture was returned and an all-out food fight began.
"Hell yeah let's do it." Dani jumped to her feet to go and get the cards.
"I'll take some of this inside, do you want anything bringing out?" Shelby looked between Quinn and Santana.
"I think another bottle might be a good idea."
"No problem."
"Tonight has been good." Quinn said quietly as she climbed into Santana's lap and nuzzled into her neck.
"Yeah it has."
"You smell good."
"Don't I always?"
"Yeah but you smell good enough to eat tonight."
Quinn sucked on her lovers pulse point making the younger woman shudder.
"Q you just suggested we play a game."
Quinn straddled the brunettes' thighs.
"You don't think Dani and Shelby aren't in there making out?"
"Well to be honest the thought hadn't crossed my mind."
"San."
"Yeah?"
"Just shut up and kiss me."

Santana grasped at her stomach it was aching from laughing so much.
"Hey it was the best option I had." Quinn shrugged as the other women laughed hard.
"Hey baby come back to my place and I'll show you a power point presentation was your best option really?"
"Well my only other one was lumberjack fantasies."
Dani, Shelby and Santana laughed even harder.
"You win that one Q." Dani took a large sip from her glass to try and relax her cheeks.
They had been playing for two hours and had not stopped laughing for most of that time.
"I think on that high it might be time to wrap this up and go to bed don't you think?"
Shelby placed the remaining cards in her hand on the table. She had enjoyed getting to know Quinn better as she relaxed and let her guard down more and more.
"You guys drew the short straw and are on breakfast duty." Santana stated as she placed her cards in the box.
"Fuck off we did not."
"You don't want to do breakfast hon?" Shelby tucked a strand of hair behind Dani's ear
"No I want to sleep in."
"Fine we can do breakfast."
"See I knew there was a reason why I loved you Santana." Dani smiled brightly once again.
"Just means you now do dinner." Santana laughed and walked in the house.
Dani's shoulders slumped once again.
"Why do I get the feeling she just set us up for that?" She moaned.
"Because she totally did." Quinn kissed her cousin on the top of the head.
"Tell her I think she's nasty Q."
"Ha she will take that as a compliment, night ladies."
"Goodnight."
"Don't pout babe we can make an amazing dinner." Shelby took Dani's hand and pulled her to her feet.
"I think you've figured out I'm not really in to cooking."
"I think the empty sushi packs, pizza boxes and other takeout boxes constantly in your fridge or trash alerted me to that quite some time ago."
"Not really such a great catch after all huh."
"Oh on the contrary it makes us a perfect match because I love cooking."
"I love that you love cooking." Dani grinned into a kiss.
"I love that you love that I love cooking." Shelby whispered as the kiss ended.
"How many times did you say that in your head?"
"A few." They laughed softly together as they picked up the last remaining bottles and dishes from the table.
"Hey Shel."
Shelby turned from her position in the doorway.
"Yeah?"
"I love that you came out here with us, with me."
"I love that you invited me." Shelby winked and went to turn back towards the house.
"And Shel."
"Yes." She turned back with a smile.
"I love that I'm in love with you."
Shelby went to answer but couldn't formulate the correct words in that moment so instead she walked back towards the blonde and placed the things in her hands back on the table.
"Come here." She whispered.
"You don't have to say it back I just wanted to let you know how I was feeling." Dani felt a little nervous it wasn't every day she told someone she was in love with them in fact she had only ever done it once before.
"Shhh." Shelby closed the gap between them with a kiss.
After a couple of minutes of passionate kissing Shelby finally took a step back and looked deeply into the woman's eyes.
"I'm in love with you too beautiful."
"You are?" A huge grin spread across Dani's face.
"Without a doubt."
"Yay." Dani did a little excited hop on the spot.
"You are too cute, come on lets go to bed."

"So what are you cooking me for breakfast?" Quinn asked as she crawled up the bed and lay flush against her lover.
"I was thinking French toast."
"Mmmm with maple syrup?"
"Blueberry syrup."
"But I like maple."
"You'll like blueberry also." Santana assured.
"I'm not sure about that."
Santana slipped Quinn's tank over her head.
"How about I go and get them and we have a taste test?"
"I like the way you think Miss Lopez."
"You're going to like the way I taste even more in a sec."
Santana flew from the bed and made her way in the dark to the kitchen. Just as she went to push the door to enter the kitchen it was pulled open causing Santana to jump and stumble backwards, two surprised screams echoed through the house.
"Fuck Santana you scared the shit out of me." Shelby hissed whilst holding her hand out to pull the Latina to her feet.
"Who the fuck hangs out in the kitchen in the pitch black?"
"Well you weren't exactly lighting up the house." Shelby laughed.
Lights flicked on in the room and Rob Davis came flying into sight baseball bat in hand.
"Easy super hero it's just us." Santana reassured the half asleep man.
"You screamed?"
"We gave each other a fright."
"What's going on?" Julie muttered.
"I heard screams and came to investigate."
Julie wiped her eyes so she could see more clearly and took a moment to take in Santana and Shelby hand in hand in the kitchen doorway. Shelby with a chocolate sauce bottle in hand.
Santana looked down between them and then following Julie's line of vision noting the chocolate sauce. Her eyes widened at the impression that it gave.
"No no no."
"What the hell is everyone doing up?" Quinn asked as she joined them, she had struggled to find the top that Santana had flung across their room moments earlier.
"I think Santana and Shelby were just about to explain themselves." Julie crossed her arms across her chest.
"We gave each other a fright Mrs. D that's all."
"And what? Shelby grabbed the closest thing to defend herself with?"
Quinn looked at Shelby's hand and covered the grin threatening to erupt across her face.
"No I was leaving the kitchen and San was coming in we didn't expect to see each other." Shelby added placing the chocolate sauce quickly on the counter beside her.
"So you weren't…you know?"
"Fuck no." Santana practically spat out in reply.
"For Christ's sake Mom you are acting like they were having a sexual tryst in the kitchen whilst we all slept." Dani finally made her presence known.
"I…I don't…..I don't know what I thought Danielle I'm half asleep and I come out to all of this racket and they are holding hands and chocolate syrup."
"Oh my god nothing like that happened, Shelby was getting the sauce for us and Santana…well fuck knows what she was coming in here for" Dani sighed before making her way to her very pale girlfriend.
"Maple syrup." Quinn stated as she walked to Santana's side.
"Ok Julie it's fair to say both our girls have a sweet tooth and we should probably leave them to it." Rob turned his wife towards the door and led them back to their bedroom.
"You know this is going to be hilarious in the morning right?" Dani giggled as she pecked Shelby on the cheek and grabbed the sauce.
"Ugh I'm so embarrassed." Shelby shook her head but the slight hint of a smile tugged at her lips.
"Night cous enjoy your dessert." Dani hip checked Quinn as they made their way past.
"Night."
Quinn turned to face Santana who still looked pretty mortified.
"Why don't I get the syrup and you go and prepare the surface you'd like me to try them both on?"
"You still want to do that?"
"Yeah I want a breakfast preview….do you not?"
"Well I kinda lost my mojo a bit there Q."
"Does this help."
Quinn pulled Santana's hand up to her own breasts and began to rub them gently.
"Maybe a little." Santana smiled as she felt all too familiar surges begin running through her body.
"Go get ready baby I'm going to grab the syrup."
