CHAPTER 23

A/N: Thanks to DarkSouls3777, Michelle, kelenhermitha and Olivia for their reviews, and sorry for the wait. This chapter was particularly difficult to write and… it is definitely rated M ;-) But before we get there, a little more about the wedding party… It's Santana POV for most of the chapter, but occasionally it's Brittany POV (it's indicated when it changes, as always).


LATER – AT THE WEDDING VENUE (SANTANA POV)

"Britt… May I cut in for a dance with San?" Quinn suddenly asks, appearing out of nowhere.

Much to my disappointment, Brittany nods in approval before stepping away from me. Of course Fabray has to ruin my game right when my wife finally lets me flirt with her!

As Quinn clasps one of my hands in hers and puts her other hand around my waist, I watch Puck and Britt get in the same position, ready to share a dance of their own.

"You better keep your hands to yourself, Puckerman. I'm watching you!" I say, sending him a death glare. "And the same goes for you, Fabray." I add. "Whatever lesbian fantasy you have, remember that I'm a married woman!"

"Get over yourself, San!" Quinn replies, rolling her eyes. "I just wanted to know how things are going between you and Brittany…" She whispers. "You two seemed to have a nice moment earlier on the dance floor…" She adds with a wink.

"Yeah…" I reply with a smile that I can't contain. "I guess that things are a little bit better between us lately… She's more… affectionate. And apparently… I'm even going to get laid tonight!" I whisper in Quinn's ear, before wiggling my eyebrows in excitement.

"Oh God… No…" She pouts with despair, shaking her head.

"I'm sorry?" I frown, completely offended.

"No… I mean… I'm super happy for you, San. You know that I'm totally rooting for you girls! It's just that…" She sighs. "…We have the room next to yours…"

This time, I'm the one rolling my eyes.


A WHILE LATER – AT THE WEDDING VENUE

The party is ON!

At this point, Gleeks are either drunk or simply crazy, maybe even both! We have danced together for a big part of the evening, even redoing some of our old choreographies. The other guests must think that we are total freaks.

But I also feel like I have sung A LOT today! Due to popular demand, the Unholy Trinity performed Toxic and we totally killed it! Then I shared the stage with Berry on So emotional. I was skeptical at first but I actually enjoyed this duet with her... We sounded great! Of course, the dwarf had to ruin it all immediately after the song ended! She begged me to write another single for her and kept harassing me! I had to accept just to get her off my back! And shortly after, I was summoned by Mercedes to sing River deep, mountain high together… I'm really having a lot of fun though, it's so great to party with these clowns!

And as I glance at my lovely blonde on the dancefloor, there is no doubt that she's having the time of her life with Boy Chang! I love to see her so happy!

Since everyone is pretty busy, I jump on the opportunity to escape to the bar for a well-deserved drink. But after barely two minutes, I see Mercedes waving at me. "San, we're going to sing Don't stop believin', get over here!"

"Oh come on!" I complain. "Haven't we sung that song enough times for a lifetime already?"

Seriously… Lady Hummel and Berry also made us sing that song at Sofia's birthday! Why do I feel that every wedding, every birthday, every celebration in general is always going to include that damn song until the end of our lives?

"Lopez, don't you remember what you said earlier?" Mercedes replies, crossing her arms. "What the bride wants, the bride gets! Hurry up!"

"Fine…" I mumble before downing my glass.


MUCH LATER – AT THE WEDDING VENUE

I'm not sure what time it is exactly but it's late! Or maybe at this point I should say it's early, because it's almost morning… Britt and I stayed at the party until the married couple was actually ready to leave… After all, I'm the maid of honor, I couldn't bail on the bride…

As my wife and I finally enter our bedroom, I barely have the time to lock the door behind us and turn around that Brittany pins me against the door and presses her lips on mine. Wow OK, I see that she's not wasting time!

After recovering from the initial surprise, I kiss her back and place a hand on the back of her neck to pull her impossibly closer. Britt's hands slowly run down my sides until they reach my hips and I feel her body pressing against mine.

Our kiss heats up embarrassingly quickly and before it goes any further, I reluctantly tear my mouth away from hers. "Britt… are you really sure you want this… ?" I ask completely out of breath, looking into her eyes.

"I am 100% sure…" She nods. "I really want you, San… I have been waiting for this the whole day…" She adds, gently holding my cheeks with both of her hands before catching my lips in another passionate kiss. God… She's such a good kisser that I can't stop myself from humming.

I hug her close and feel her deepening the kiss even more, her tongue slowly swirling with mine. The world could end right now and I wouldn't even notice because all I feel is my wife: her hands on my body, the addicting taste of her mouth, the intoxicating perfume of her hair as her blond locks brush against my face… I have really missed Brittany…

"San…That dress has to come off, honey…" She suddenly says in between kisses before turning me around.

She slowly unzips the back of my dress, planting soft kisses on my neck from behind. Her fingers tug on my strapless dress until it slides down my legs and eventually pools at my feet.

Still standing behind me, Britt sucks on the pulse point of my neck while her hands slowly slide from my hips to my bare stomach before moving up to gently grope my boobs. I can't help but let out a moan at the feeling… As she turns me around to face her again, I can clearly see the lust in her blue eyes. I haven't seen that look in way too long and that's such a fucking turn on!

She reconnects her lips with mine and as her tongue sneaks back into my mouth, she unhooks my bra and caresses my back. I am now completely naked except for my panties, but that doesn't seem to stop Brittany as she slips her hands inside my underwear to caress my ass, occasionally squeezing.

"Not fair…" I mumble against her lips. "You should get naked too, Britt…" I whisper, desperately trying to feel up her body through the material of her dress.

"Ok…" She whispers, trying to catch her breath. "When you're right, you're right…" She smirks, turning around to invite me to unzip her dress. I have barely put the zip down that she surprises me by turning again in order to face me. Her eyes are so intense that I get lost in them and she takes advantage of my distraction to take a few steps back.

I watch her teasingly getting undressed in front of me until she's fully naked. After so many weeks of forced celibacy, it's a sight that I have not seen in a while and all I can think of is that she must be the sexiest woman alive… And I suddenly feel intimidated... It's probably silly but I'm nervous, as if it was our first time! So much has happened between us lately and she was so distant for so long... I was actually starting to be afraid that we would never get intimate again.

Britt sits down on the bed, her flirty eyes set on me as she gestures her index finger to make me come closer to her. Never breaking eye contact, I get rid of my underwear faster than my shadow and walk towards her until I eventually climb on the bed to straddle her. I pull her into a sultry kiss as my hands travel on her body, caressing any spot that I can reach in this position.

Britt's hands find my ass again and she kisses down my neck and my chest, burying her face in the valley of my breast. A moan escapes my lips when I feel the tip of her tongue flicking over my nipple and stroking it a few times. She pulls it into her mouth and sucks on it while looking at me, which drives me absolutely insane! I'm incredibly wet and all I want right now is feeling her between my legs. I adjust my position to be able to grind my core into hers. She feels so good, I have really missed this so fucking bad! I'm panting like crazy but as I hear her moaning my name, I rub faster on her, never letting go of her eyes.

She suddenly flips us over without warning and I land on my back. I just have the time to see her smile before she kisses my mouth, deepening the kiss. I move one of my hands onto her ass as I tangle the other in her blond hair, pulling her closer to me.

After a while, she breaks the kiss, allowing our eyes to meet.

"You're so beautiful…" She whispers before tenderly pressing her lips back on mine. It's not the first time that she makes such a compliment but after being completely invisible, it feels great to finally be noticed and desired by my wife!

She nibbles at my neck before trailing her mouth down my chest and my belly. Her lips reach my inner thighs and she torturously slowly moves closer to my center. And there I thought that I couldn't be any more turned on... God what is she doing to me…

"Britt…" I moan as she runs her tongue through my wet folds while I caress her hair. Her mouth reaches my clit and she licks it with the tip of her tongue before flicking it. She moves one of her hands back up, to cup my boob, occasionally squeezing it, as she keeps running her tongue back and forth. "God, Brittany… it feels so good…" I manage to whisper in between moans.

Seeing her face trapped between my thighs just drives me completely crazy!

She continues to suck on my clit and swirls her tongue around it, driving me further and further over the edge. Waves of pleasure suddenly hit me and I moan her name as my orgasm rushes through my body.

It takes me a while to even remember where I am. I don't know if it's because we haven't had sex in a while but this felt even better than I ever remembered! My heart beats like it's going to explode! I pant, trying to catch my breath, while Brittany lays besides me, hugging me tenderly. I'm not sure how many minutes it takes me to come back down from my high. But once I do, I decide to flip us over and lay right besides her.

I immediately give her a loving kiss, gently caressing her tongue with mine. As I taste myself in her mouth, I realize that I didn't dream this, it really happened!

I latch my mouth onto her nipple while my hand caresses her perfect abs and slowly moves down her body, until it lands between her legs. She's so hot, I don't even know how I managed to stay away from her for so long! As I slowly slide my finger through her folds, I notice how wet she is... I gently rub her clit in circles and keep swirling my tongue around her delicious nipple, which makes her moan.

Suddenly I feel her hand on mine, and as she guides it slightly lower, I understand what she wants. I slowly slide one finger into her core, then a second, and her breathing immediately accelerates. It feels so wonderful to be inside her again.

I adjust my position and rest my forehead against hers, looking into her eyes as I gently thrust in and out of her, going deeper and deeper.

"San… God... Please, don't stop… It feels so good…" she begs.

I pump faster in and out of her, locking my eyes with hers, kissing her lips every now and then. Her moaning fills the room and when I feel her clenching around my fingers, I know that she's getting close. I pick up the pace until she comes and moans my name. God… seeing her getting an orgasm is the hottest thing ever!

I patiently wait for her breathing to slow down and then kiss her lovingly, feeling her hugging me close.

We silently look into each other's eyes for a minute until I break the silence. "I've missed you so much, Britt…" I whisper.

She captures my lips in a tender kiss before whispering "I love you…"

"I love you too…" I reply, even though those words don't even cover what I feel for her.


LATER – IN BED

We should probably try to catch some sleep but right now it's like we are suspended in a moment in time and I really don't want it to end... My head is resting on the crook of Britt's neck and I run the tip of my fingers along her arm as she holds my naked body.

I really wish we could stay like this forever because right now there is no fight, there is no baby disagreement, no divorce threat hanging above our heads… There is only love, and there is only us...


A FEW HOURS LATER – WEDDING VENUE - BRUNCH

Mercedes and Sam left for their honeymoon but the rest of us decided to have brunch together at the venue before going home. While Brittany is discussing with Kurt, I'm standing in front of the open buffet with Quinn and I don't even know what to pick, everything looks so delicious! As I'm finally about to place some food on my plate, I notice Quinn's eyes on me. She's looking at me as if she was studying my face, with a smirk on hers.

"What?" I ask, frowning.

"Oh nothing… I just see that you did indeed get laid last night." She whispers, winking at me.

I roll my eyes in response. "Did you really hear us?" I ask.

"No, I didn't hear you because I didn't even take the risk… I asked the reception to change room before you girls left the wedding party." She says, laughing. "But I know you had sex, Lopez! It's written all over your face, you might try not to make it so obvious… And the way you and Britt look at each other… You two are so disgustingly in love, it even looks like you're the ones that got married yesterday!"

I throw Quinn a proud look and shrug as if it was no big deal. But it's actually a very big deal... It felt so good to finally reconnect with my wife last night, to be us again… And as soon as I think about it, I feel butterflies all over my stomach.


ON THE NEXT DAY – AT HOME

I'm sitting on the couch, facing Britt. We have been staring at each other for a while, none of us daring to say a word. But Mercedes and Sam's wedding day is behind us now, so… it's time for the infamous baby talk.

"Can I… go first?" She suddenly whispers, breaking the silence.

I nod in approval, looking into those blue eyes that I love so much.

"Look…" She sighs. "I have been thinking a lot about our baby disagreement lately, but I have also been thinking a lot about us… And… I really love the life and the family we have built together, San… And when I look at Sofia…" She pauses, a sweet smile forming on her lips. "... She may not have my genes but somehow she still has picked up some stuff from me… She's just this… perfect mix of you and me." She shrugs.

That's actually true. Physically, Sofia looks a lot like me. And yet… She has the same damn pout as Britt's and even walks like her! She has my hot temper and says Spanish words when she's upset but she calms down way more quickly than I ever do, which is with no doubt something she has learned from Brittany. And the list goes on and on: Sofia and I both love the color red and playing the piano. And just like her mommy, she's crazy about animals and loves dancing and drawing…

Britt takes a long inhale and says "I really, really want another child, Santana but… you're the one I want to make babies with... I want my children to have you in their lives, and I want to raise them with you…"

Even though I haven't changed my mind about having another kid, I have to admit that what she says doesn't leave me indifferent…

"So I want us to discuss this again, but we have to approach the subject differently." She says. "This time, we can't let overwhelming emotions get in the way otherwise we will both get upset and we'll end up fighting without having any productive discussion. So… I would like to suggest something…"

"Ok… What is it…?" I ask, curious.

"I would like you to make a pros and cons list, about… having that baby." She says.

"A pros and cons list…?" I repeat, surprised.

"Yeah… I think it would help a lot, San… It would allow us to be more rational. That way you can think about it on your own and consider all the different aspects, without being caught in a fight with me or feeling pressured. And once you're done, I could go through your list on my own too… and process it in a calm way. And I'm not naive... I assume that you will have a lot of cons, because you have already said a few, but maybe that way I will be able to suggest solutions and turn some cons around…" She says.

"And as for the pros… honestly, I feel that you focused so much on the difficulties and the challenges that you didn't allow yourself to even consider the positive aspects… Maybe if you sit down and think about it, you will find some pros… but they should be your own, not mine. And if you don't find any… well at least, you would have tried." She adds.

I hesitate, because somehow it doesn't feel right to me to make a pros and cons list about a baby… Normally it's stuff that people would do to compare holiday destinations or something… But at the same time, Britt has a point… It would allow us to think this through in a more serene and rational way.

"Ok…" I sigh, looking into her eyes. "I will make a pros and cons list, Britt. But there is also one thing I want you to consider." I add.

"Sure… what's that?" She asks.

"Don't take it bad but I think you have idealized this whole sibling thing, honey… Your mom told me that when you were little, you desperately wanted a sibling. And I get it, Britt! But it doesn't mean that Sofia would need or even want one! I personally never did! And having a sibling is not automatically a good thing! Just think about Quinn and her sister! They have never got along, not even as kids! And now they are not speaking anymore! That evil bitch was the first one to judge Q and turn her back on her when she got pregnant with Beth! And don't you remember how miserable Blaine was because of his brother?" I ask.

"Ok… fine, I admit that it's not necessarily good for everyone to have a sibling. But if we do have several kids, it's also our job to educate them well enough so that they respect each other and support each other!" She says.

"Yeah, maybe so…" I acknowledge. "Nevertheless, you shouldn't project your own fears or needs onto Sofia. And I shouldn't either… The ideal solution would be asking her what she wants but she's just two years old so I'm not sure she even understands what having a sibling really means. So… I think that we should… have a trial run." I add.

"A trial run? But how can we even…?" She asks, confused.

"Alex." I shrug. "We could ask Mike and Tina if we can have him over for two or three days… I'm sure that they would really appreciate to have some time to themselves! And then we can see how Sofia reacts when there is another baby in the house… And… we could also see if we can actually handle two kids…"

She takes a few seconds to consider the idea and nods in approval. "Ok… Yeah…" She says. "Let's try!"


A FEW DAYS LATER – AT HOME – NIGHT TIME

I am sound asleep in my wife's arms when baby cries wake me up. I growl in complain, it's 4:00 AM! It's the second night we spend with two children in the house and I'm already completely exhausted!

"Britt…" I mumble, gently shaking her. "Alex is crying, it's your turn to check on him…"

She loudly sighs and is about to get up when we hear Sofia suddenly crying as well.

"No, no, no!" I complain in despair. Alex managed to wake up Sofia AGAIN and I'm pretty sure that I will not get much sleep tonight! Thank God, I don't have to go to Paramount tomorrow, and that's fortunate considering that Britt will spend the whole day at the dance school.

"You know what that means, San…" Britt says. "If they both cry, we both get up and we each handle one. So which one you want?"

"Dammit!" I sigh. And then she wonders why I don't want another crying sucker?! Really?!

"I'll take my daughter, thank you." I say in an angry tone. "You handle the Asian bawler, he's your godson after all! But I'm telling you, Britt: starting tomorrow, I move Alex to another room and as far as possible from Sofia! Hopefully she won't hear him cry anymore. It's already difficult enough to put one kid back to sleep, I don't need two crying at the same time!"


ON THE NEXT DAY – AT HOME

Now that both Sofia and Alex are finally napping, I take another look at my pros and cons list and I feel bad. I have so many cons and so few pros… I'm actually too embarrassed to even show this to Brittany.

I am so desperate that I even call Quinn and ask her to help me find pros. But she turns me down, saying that it is something I have to figure out for myself because she is not "the one that would raise children with Brittany".

If my list keeps looking like this, I will not be the one to raise Brittany's children either…

But my wife asked me to be honest after all so… I'm not sure that I can do any better than this.


LATER THAT DAY – EVENING TIME - BRITTANY POV

I'm so exhausted… Not only did I barely sleep last night, but I had to teach dance the whole day. And today, I had many groups of young kids who were of course completely excited and it took all the energy I had left to handle them. Maybe Santana is right after all… maybe it would be too difficult to raise two kids considering how busy we are…

As I finally get home, I find Santana and Sofia playing peek-a-boo with Alex.

Sofia laughs hard every time she opens her hands in front of Alex – even before she opens her hand actually - while my godson chuckles in this overly cute way babies do... Santana is laughing along as she watches them interacting.

Despite my exhaustion, I instantly feel a lot happier coming home to this.


LATER THAT DAY

After taking my shower, I realize that it's time to feed Alex. But when I get to his room, I see that Santana is already giving him a bottle, with a very attentive Sofia observing her.

"Can I try…?" Our little girl asks her mama.

"You want to feed him?" Santana asks her, obviously surprised.

As Sofia enthusiastically nods, I hear my hot Latina replying "Ok… Why not, let's give it a try…"

I can't help but feeling butterflies as I watch Santana helping Sofia to hold the bottle to Alex' mouth.


EVEN LATER THAT DAY

Both children are now finally asleep and Santana and I are in bed. I feel so tired that I'm pretty sure that I'm going to pass out very, very soon.

"So how was it when I was away?" I ask her. "Did you manage to handle them both by yourself?"

"Well, it was not easy…" She replies. "When you have the two of them, you really have no moment to yourself! But Alex is actually a nice kid! He smiles a lot and he makes these super funny faces by the way! I swear that at times, he looks just like Mike! And I have to admit that Sofia helped me a lot… She always wants to take care of him, and she takes that job really seriously! I was impressed…"

"I can totally picture her doing just that…" I smile, snuggling up next to her before falling asleep in a heartbeat.


ON THE NEXT EVENING – AT HOME – SANTANA POV

"Peanut!" Britt says as she places Alex in the maxi cosi. "It's time to say goodbye to your cousin Alex!"

It's indeed the end of our little "experiment"… Britt will drive Alex back to Mike and Tina's in a moment.

"No! He can't leave!" Sofia suddenly shouts, frowning.

That unexpected reaction leaves me and Britt speechless for a minute.

"But mija, Alex was here on a visit…" I softly reply. "He needs to go home now, his mommy and his daddy are waiting for him."

"Quiero que él se quede!" She yells in response, crossing her little arms in defiance and making a very "Brittany" pout. Oh boy, she's definitely upset! And right now, I must admit that she does look exactly like a mix of Britt and myself…

Brittany looks at me, obviously confused, most probably because she didn't understand what Sofia just said in Spanish.

"She wants him to stay." I translate, taking Sofia in my arms to comfort her.

"Alex will come back another time, baby girl…" I say in my softest voice as I rub my daughter's back to calm her down. "You will see him again! But now he has to go home… Come on, don't you want to give him a goodbye kiss?"

I place her back on the ground so she can move closer to him. After giving him a kiss, she immediately runs back to me and hugs my leg before she starts crying. I had no idea that she was already so attached to mini Asian…


A FEW DAYS LATER – AT HOME – EVENING TIME

"San…" Brittany says as she enters the living room where I have been watching TV.

"Mmhh?" I ask, still focused on the movie.

"I have gone through your pros and cons list…" She says, making me instantly turn to her. I can't read her face but I really hope that she's not upset.

"Are you mad… ?" I timidly ask.

"No, I'm not mad!" She says. "I can tell that you took the exercise seriously, that's all I wanted! And it was not easy but I believe that I have found some sort of solution for all your cons." She adds.

"Really?" I ask, skeptical. But maybe it's good news after all…

"Yeah… look." She says, handing me my pros and cons list on which she has scribbled suggestions.

I look at the first item on the cons column, the one that said that we were too busy to afford sleepless nights and take care of two children. She wrote Sabbatical next to it.

"Sabbatical?" I ask, confused.

"Yeah…" She replies. "If we decide to have the baby, I will take a sabbatical year off work after the birth."

I open my eyes in surprise. Brittany not dancing for a whole year? That sounds extreme, especially because if she does get pregnant I can only assume that she will already have to stop dancing at some point of her pregnancy. And now we add another whole year to that? I can't help but feeling a little worried, remembering how deeply depressed she was when she had to quit dance because of MIT.

"But Britt… Are you sure? You love to dance… and you love to teach!"

"I do… But honey, when Alex stayed over, I realized that… it's so hard to be woken up multiple times per night by a newborn and a toddler, and then handle several groups of 20 over-excited kids at school on the next day… We did this just three days and I was already completely dead! That's just how it is... Besides, you were not working either for almost a whole year after Sofia was born. I know it was mainly because you were waiting for news about Glee and your album but that was so helpful to have one of us at home. It's only fair that I would do it this time, especially because we both know that you can't take months off with the job you have… "

"But…" I interject but she cuts me off.

"It's fine, San, really. I love dancing but having a baby is what I want the most right now. And if I miss dancing too much, I can dance at home or even teach Sofia! I was planning to start her dance training soon anyway! Or... I could even give private lessons while Glee is on hiatus because then you would be home!"

I sigh and nod in understanding. I really don't like the idea of Brittany not dancing… But we wouldn't really have another choice if we wanted to make it with two children while Glee is on…

We spend the rest of the night discussing the solutions to all my cons and concerns. For instance, where I was afraid that we would not have any alone time, she offered to have regular date nights. Where I got concerned that we would be drowning in chores, she said that Anita, our cleaning lady, was ready to also take care of the laundry, the ironing and even the groceries if needed. Apparently, Anita is looking for additional money to put her son through college. And as Britt said, we actually have money now and can afford paying her more… That was really not the case when Sofia was born, we were basically broke because all of our money had gone into the house so we couldn't afford a cleaning lady at all…

"Just take some time to digest all this, and let me know what you think?" She asks.

I sigh before saying "OK… I will think about it…"


A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER – AT THE DUCK POUND

Brittany is teaching this afternoon so after picking up Sofia at daycare, I take her to the duck pound.

We are feeding the ducks and it's making me laugh to see how excited she is around them! She's Brittany's daughter alright…

As I keep observing her, I suddenly feel the need to have a little chat with my baby girl, even though it's not easy to have an actual conversation with a two year old.

"Mija…" I say, and she turns to me with big curious eyes. "Do you remember when your cousin Alex stayed with us for a few days?" I ask.

She nods, still looking at me.

"How did it feel having him at home?" I ask.

"Happy!" She says a little too loud. "I love Alex!"

"I think he likes you too, mija, he was smiling at you every time he saw you! But you understand that he had to go home to Uncle Mike and Auntie Tina, right?"

She shrugs as a response so I continue speaking, to make sure that it's clear to her. "It's like you when you visited your Auntie Nay Nay the other day, remember? You stayed with her for a little while but then you came back home with me and mommy. So when Alex comes to our house, it's only for a while and then he goes back home to be with his parents."

This time, she nods in understanding.

"But if he leaves, I can't play with him!" She complains.

I'm not really sure what she means by "playing with him"… Mini Asian is barely 3 months old! Besides sleeping and pooping, he doesn't do much more… But maybe I'm missing something.

"But Alex will come back for a visit soon and you can play with him again." I decide to reply. "And until then, you know that mommy and I can play with you whenever you want! Or you can invite a friend from daycare, like Charlotte…" I add but she doesn't look convinced at all.

"Charlotte will go home too." She comments, with a sad pout.

She actually looks like she is about to cry and it makes me really sad... I keep thinking of how lonely Brittany was when she was a child and now I wonder if Sofia feels that lonely too.

"Charlotte has a sister…" my baby suddenly adds. "And she can play at home with her, every day!"

I sigh, knowing what she is trying to tell me.

"Do you ever wish to have a little brother or sister?" I finally dare to ask her.

She silently nods in confirmation. "Can I have one?" She shouts in excitement.

"Huh…" I say, not knowing what to reply as she looks at me with expecting eyes.

"We'll see, mija…" I just add, kissing her forehead.


A FEW DAYS LATER – AT HOME – BRITTANY POV

I'm busy signing what feels like a ton of administrative documents about the dance school when I hear the front door open.

"Britt?" Santana asks from afar.

"Living room!" I shout.

"Hey!" She says, kissing my lips.

"Hi! How was work?" I ask. "You're home later than usual…"

"It was fine…" She replies. "But I'm late because I had to drop by Mercedes and Sam's after work. I have something for you by the way." She adds as she hands me an envelope.

As I open it, I discover a picture of Santana and me, which was obviously taken at Mercedes and Sam's wedding party.

"Oh my God… This picture is SO beautiful, we look amazing!" I say with excitement. This is seriously one of the best pictures of us that I have ever seen! After our wedding pictures, this must be a close second.

"Right?" She comments, smiling. "I knew that you would like it just as much as I do! Mercedes said that we could keep it and she also gave me the photographer's number. I was thinking of ordering a copy in a bigger format so we can frame it?"

"Great idea! It would look so nice on our walls!" I say, still looking in awe at the picture.

"You should turn it over because there is a surprise on the back." She says with a mischievous smile.

"Oh?" I say, curious.

As I turn it over, I see that Santana wrote a few words.

Brittany Lopez-Pierce, will you have my baby?

My jaw drops in disbelief and as I look back at her, I find her staring at me with the biggest smile ever.

"Oh my God! Are you… are you serious…?" I ask, feeling my heartbeat racing like crazy.

"Yes, Britt… I'm very serious…" She replies with a loving smile.

"But… Are you really sure that it's what you want, San? We always agreed that you shouldn't do this if it was just for me…"

"I'm sure, Britt!" She says, looking into my eyes. "This is also what I want! I know that I was strongly against it at first but that's because I had all these reasons not to have a baby… But look…" She adds as she hands me another piece of paper.

It's her pros and cons list and all the cons have been striked through, there is… nothing left.

"With all the solutions you proposed…" She says. "…there are no more obstacles… Now, there are actually only reasons to have this baby…" She adds, pointing at a much bigger list of pros than I saw the first time. To my surprise, it now even includes Sibling for Sofia. Has Santana actually changed her mind about siblings?

"And now…" She says. "… all I can think of is a mini you running around in this house with Sofia…" She adds with a huge smile.

I am so insanely happy that I throw myself at her to kiss her.

"I love you so much…" I whisper in between kisses.

"So… I guess it's a 'yes' to my question then?" She asks with a chuckle. "You can't leave a girl hanging like this, Britt!"

"YES!" I confirm in excitement. "I can't wait to have another baby with you, San…" I add, before kissing her again.


A/N: Like I told you before, when I first brought up this baby issue, I didn't know how it would turn out, and I honestly I didn't know for MANY chapters afterwards… I thought so much about it, you don't even know! Ultimately, it didn't feel right to break them up and I started to really want them to work it out! I just seriously wrecked my brain to figure out a way for them to finally agree, considering that they had totally opposite views on the matter! So I hope that the way I made Santana changing her mind is realistic… A few questions from me to you if you don't mind:

Are you excited about a new Brittana baby?

What did you think of the sex scene? It's always a challenge for me to write those, especially in English as it's not my native language! And here the pressure was even bigger because they were reconnecting after so long, I hope I did it justice...

Please review because it helps so much! Thanks in advance for your feedback!
