''Holy shit.'' Santana whispers softly as she watches her fiance dance and Sam's strong voice filling the room, she smiles proudly hearing shocked murmurs coming from the other students and glances at Mrs Reed sitting beside her.
''Damn they don't disappoint.'' Mrs Reed whispers amazed, she turns to Santana and smiles. ''Your fiance is amazing.''
Now suddenly you're asking for it back
Could you tell me, where'd you get the nerve?
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
When you broke me first
You broke me first
Santana nods her head in agreement watching Brittany run her hand up her stomach while twirling on the spot and bites her lip seeing the emotions the song has to bring over clear in her dancing. ''She always amazes me with her dances, but songs like these show just how quick she can think on the spot.'' She whispers as she watches her fiance fall to her knees acting like she can't breath.
Sam ends the song on a high note and turns to Brittany smiling proudly. ''Amazing like always B.'' He compliments high fiving her as the class explodes into cheers, Brittany breaths deeply wiping her forehead and smiles.
''Nice song choice Sam, your voice is amazing for it.'' She slides off of the stage slipping her hoodie back over her head and wipes her face with it, she sits down beside Santana as Mrs Reed walks back to the stage and breaths deeply.
''Here babe.'' Santana murmurs softly holding a water bottle out for her, she kisses her cheek as she thanks her softly and smiles. ''That was amazing.'' She murmurs as she cuddles into her.
''It really was, I can really understand why your studio is a hit Brittany.'' Mrs Reed compliments with a big smile.
''Mrs R?'' Melissa asks quickly raising her hand, Mrs Reed turns to her and nods.
''Yes Melissa?''
''Can we sing and also dance with Brittany?'' She asks smiling brightly, Mrs Reed eyebrows raise as she sees Brittany, Santana and Sam both turn their heads to glare at Melissa and quickly shakes her head.
''No I don't think that will happen, I don't think Brittany will join us often but when she does I am quite sure she will only dance with Santana or with Sam.''
''Why?'' Melissa exclaims frowning. ''Maybe the rest of the class want in on her talent too.''
''Well we definitely don't want in on the talent you are looking for Melissa.'' Kevin a boy sitting beside her exclaims rolling his eyes, he shakes his head as she turns to look at him and sighs as the class snickers.
''We all are aware of the tension between you and Santana and we saw and heard what happened after class today, I think even a blind person can see that Santana is happily engaged so I think I speak for all of us when I say that we don't understand what the fuck you want from her.''
''Oh come on this is a college fling, that won't hold.'' Melissa exclaims while pointing at both girls in question, Brittany leans back in her seat turning her head to look at Melissa and raises an eyebrow while running her hand up Santana's back to calm her down.
''Ey Jackson?'' She asks
''Yes?'' Melissa asks with a flirting smile.
''Shut the fuck up.'' Santana tells her with a glare, she raises an eyebrow as she glares at her and smirks. ''You don't know shit about our lives so don't try to spit out things you think are facts.''
Brittany nods her head in agreement and runs a hand through her hair as Melissa scoffs. ''You call what we have a college fling, how can that be true when we are together for almost seven years?'' She hums as she sees Melissa's eyebrows raise and shrugs not about to tell about the break they had. ''Yup seven years, so just shut up and try to be needy with other people but leave my fiance and me the fuck alone.''
Mrs Reed claps in her hands shutting everyone up and smiles. ''Okay before things explode here, times up have a nice day guys!'' She turns to Brittany and smiles. ''It was nice to meet you Brittany.'' She turns to Melissa and sighs. ''Miss Jackson please stay behind for a few minutes.'' She tells her while shooting Santana a glance silently telling her to get out.
Santana shoots her a kind smile and quickly shoulders her bag, she intertwines her hand with Brittany's and kisses her cheek. ''Let's get out of here.'' She smiles as Sam leads them out of the room and quickly follows him, Sam turns to them and laughs.
''Jackson will face hell, Mrs Reed has a soft spot for you San.''
''More for B after she heard that she owns the studio her daughter signed up too.'' Santana murmurs as they walk through the building, she looks up at her fiance laughing as she sees her eyebrows raise in surprise and hums. ''She told me that her daughter signed up with a couple of her friends and prefers dancing over partying at the moment, so she is forever thankful that your studio also offers late night fun classes.''
''Well I am glad her daughter likes it and that was kinda my idea behind the whole late night classes.''
''You mean?'' Sam asks, Brittany nods her head and bites her lip.
''I heard that a lot of teens are out and about drinking and doing other shit with friends, Mike and I both try to keep them off of the streets so they won't get onto the wrong track so we decided to open up the studio late at nights two times a week.''
''The both of you really build up something amazing.'' Sam mutters as they walk towards their cars, Santana nods her head in agreement and smiles lovingly.
''Yeah you really did mi amor.''
Brittany just smiles shyly and shrugs. ''We try.'' She whispers, she unlocks her car and turns to Sam hugging him. ''You and C coming to the loft for dinner tomorrow?''
Sam nods his head and smiles. ''Yeah we will be there.''
''Awesome.'' Santana breaths out hugging him, she kisses his cheek and smiles hearing her fiance slide into her car. ''We can talk about what song we will do during dinner, see you tomorrow Sam.''
''See you tomorrow San.''
She slides into the car as soon as Sam walks to his own and leans back in her seat with a soft sigh after she put on her seat belt, she turns her head to look at her fiance opening her mouth to say something but quickly shuts it with a small smile the second she hears the playlist they put together for her to relax.
She reaches out intertwining their hands on the gear stick knowing the drive in silence with only the soft music playing will allow her to drop every ounce of stress that bothers her and lifts Brittany's hand up to her lips kissing her knuckles in silent thanks, she smiles as she just squeezes her hand in reply and turns her head looking out of the window feeling her body slowly relax against the seat and her racing mind calm down.
Twenty minutes later
Santana drops her bag by the door as soon as she follows Brittany into their apartment and walks into the kitchen, she stops in her tracks the second she sees her parents and Susan look at her with big smiles and squeaks. ''Mami, papi, Mama P!''
Maribel and Lio laugh as she quickly walks to them and hug their daughter close. ''Mom!'' Santana turns her head watching her fiance hug Susan surprise also clear in her eyes and pulls out of her parents hug after kissing their cheeks. ''What are you doing here?'' She asks curiously.
Susan laughs turning to look at her future daughter in law and smiles. ''You really think we would miss out on your first song being published?''
''We are here to celebrate it with you mija.'' Maribel adds smiling lovingly.
''So what's new?'' Lio asks looking at his daughter and his future daughter in law, Santana shrugs her shoulders moaning softly as the smell of her mami's lasagna fills her nostrils the second she opens the oven and smiles slightly.
''Not much.''
Brittany turns to her fiance as their parents turn to them and smiles slightly. ''Well there is something new, I wanted to talk to you about it tonight but getting to share it with our parents make it even better.''
''What is it mi amor?'' Santana asks smiling lovingly, Lio tilts his head the second he sees the happiness in Brittany's eyes and stands up.
''Wait mija let's set the table and grab some drinks first.''
Brittany nods her head slipping past her fiance kissing the top of her head and opens the cupboard grabbing plates and glasses for them, she places them on the table smiling as Santana places cutlery beside the plates and sits down beside her the second Lio pushes her down placing a bottle of beer in front of her.
They both thank Maribel as she places a plate filled with lasagna in front of them and look at their parents, Susan smiles lovingly and winks. ''Dig in before we talk, the both of you had a long day.''
Brittany hums taking a sip of her beer after clinking bottles with Lio and turns to Maribel. ''Thank you for dinner mama Lo, always loved your lasagna.''
Santana hums in agreement moaning after her first bite and blushes as everyone turns to her in amusement. ''Shut up.'' She whispers embarrassed. ''Peanut loves the food too.''
Maribel laughs reaching out to pat her daughters hand and smiles. ''How is peanut doing mija?''
''Moving around a lot since a few days, at first the feeling was weird but now I love it.''
''Yeah that was something I had to get used to too.'' Susan tells her chuckling. ''The first time it felt like something tickled my insides.''
Santana laughs at the description and smiles as she sees her mami nod her head in agreement, she intertwines her free hand with Brittany's on the blondes leg and smiles slightly. ''Yeah it really felt like that.''
''Just wait till peanut finds it's strength and starts kicking, some days will make you feel like you broke a rib.'' Maribel tells her daughter frowning. ''Felt like that for the better part of my pregnancy, you sure loved to show that you were existent and kickin mija.''
''Oh mami that did not sound cool at all.'' Santana tells her as her papi and Brittany both snicker, Susan chuckles and nods her head to her daughter.
''Yeah B also loved kicking around but her favorite thing to do was dance on my bladder.''
''Born to dance ma.'' Brittany tells her smiling unapologetic, Santana chuckles finishing her food and bites her lip.
''Babe before you tell us your amazing news, can I steal the show for a bit?''
''Always San.'' Brittany murmurs chuckling, Santana smiles slightly slowly standing up locking eyes with Susan silently telling her to record it and turns to her fiance.
''I woke up this morning and had to do a double take the second I walked past the mirror in our room.''
''Why?'' Brittany asks confused, Santana bites her lip gripping the hem of the motocross hoodie she wears and bunches it up showing her fiance and their parents her baby bump.
''Peanut made his presence known over night, I had to steal your hoodie because all my clothes showed my bump.''
She smiles tears filling her eyes the second she sees the amazement fill her fiance's eyes and bites her lip as she feels her arm curl around her waist pulling her closer, she runs her hand through her blonde locks as she feels her lips repeatedly kissing her bump and looks at their parents as she hears her softly talking to their peanut.
''God I never saw her so soft.'' Maribel breaths out watching her future daughter in law talk to her unborn child while smiling sweetly
Brittany pulls back pulling Santana in her lap after her mom and Maribel both reached out to run her hand over her bump and kisses her shoulder her both hands coming up to cover her bump. ''God I love you.'' She whispers softly nuzzling her face in the crook of her neck.
Lio turns to his wife after watching his daughter and future daughter in law with a loving smile and chuckles. ''Badass on the outside, mushy on the inside mi amor.'' He smiles as Susan nods her head in agreement and smiles slightly. ''She would have never reacted like this with everyone around, but the three of us and the two crazy bonus kids we have are honored to watch her be herself and knowing our daughter is receiving all of it just makes me incredibly happy.''
Santana leans back against Brittany's front and turns her head kissing her cheek. ''Mh I am too papi.''
Susan watches them sending Puck and Quinn the video she recorded wanting them to see it too and smiles lovingly watching the happy smile on her daughters face. ''I can't wait to watch the both of you be the incredible parents we know you will be.''
''We will do everything the three or well four of you taught us ma.'' Brittany tells her with a soft sweet smile. ''We also love knowing that peanut has three amazing grandparents and a pair of godparents who will love him or her unconditionally.''
''Q and Puck will be the godparents?'' Maribel asks smiling lovingly, Santana nods her head intertwining her hands with Brittany's on her bump and smiles.
''Yeah we wouldn't trust anyone else with that task like Q told us the second Puck told us that we are Beth's godparents, we didn't tell them yet but I think they know.''
''I am sure they do mija.'' Lio tells her smiling slightly. ''The four of you have a bond no one can describe, it goes way past siblings and knowing the four of you also have a group of friends supporting you is amazing.''
Brittany hums in agreement and smiles slightly. ''Yeah we definitely see each other less since San moved out of the loft and quit working at the restaurant, now that Puck and Q have little B they also have other priorities but we try to meet up at least once a month.''
''With the group that is.'' Santana clarifies chuckling. ''We see Q and Puck whenever we want, we drop by or they come over.'' She glances at her fiance and bites her lip. ''B being the thoughtful woman she always is just set up a crib in our future baby room so little B can sleep in peace while we catch up.''
''Are the both of you staying in this apartment?'' Susan asks tilting her head, Brittany nods her head and smiles slightly.
''Yeah for now, we have an extra room we will turn into our peanuts room soon but we do want to start searching for a bigger place by the end of next year so San has a room to pull back as soon as her career takes off so she can write her music from home too.''
''We won't have a guestroom anymore but guests can either crash on the couch or we will find another solution.'' Santana continues, Lio smiles seeing the happiness clear on both of their faces and nods his head.
''Yeah that makes sense, don't stress yourself out the both of you have enough room for peanut now and starting searching for a better place at the end of next year sounds good.'' He turns to Brittany and raises an eyebrow. ''Need help decorating the room B?''
Brittany nods her head and smiles slightly. ''I would have asked you and Puck to help papa Lo, we decided to wait until we know peanuts gender so we could decide what we want but as soon as we know I would love to do it with you and Puck.''
''Sounds like the both of you have it all planned out.'' Maribel tells them with a big smile, Santana nods her head lifting Brittany's hands up to her lips and kisses her knuckles.
''You know that B is a planner mami, even though I exclaimed to hate it in high school now I love it because it is definitely less stressful.''
Brittany laughs softly seeing her mother cover her mouth in amusement and winks. ''Yes mom I know you also hated dad planning everything, but in the end you loved it right?''
Susan laughs and nods her head. ''Yeah I did hate him planning everything but in the end he was always right, it did bring more calmed into our lives.''
Santana smiles slightly turning her head to look at her fiance and kisses her cheek. ''What did you want to tell us mi amor?'' She asks subtly changing the subject seeing a sad glimmer in Susan's eyes, Brittany turns to her after shooting her mother a loving grin and clears her throat rubbing the back of her neck with a sheepish smile.
''Right um.'' She takes a sip of her beer and bites her lip trying to contain her grin. ''I had a bunch of meetings today with some amazing other dance studios but also with a committee who is planning the dance awards this year.'' She looks around at their parents and smiles shyly. ''It is in two weeks but they were made aware of my studio on short notice and decided to surprise visit the studio today.''
''Is that good?'' Maribel asks curiously, Brittany slowly nods her head and gulps.
''Someone send them a mail telling them to check the studio out before the awards are handed out this year, according to them the mail praised the hell out of my studio and told them that even though I just started up that it would have been wrong to not allow visit me before deciding.''
''What does this all mean mi amor?'' Santana asks softly as she notices Brittany rambling, Brittany turns to her after taking a deep breath and smiles slightly.
''Long story short, the dancing Lilly broke several records and bumped a lot of studios off of the top and is currently sharing the top place with another studio.'' She rushes out.
''Oh my god, that is amazing!'' Santana squeals out pulling Brittany in a bone crushing hug, she kisses her cheek as their parents join the hug exclaiming how proud they are and smiles. ''I knew everyone would see the love and passion you put in your studio mi amor!''
''That's not all.'' Brittany whispers softly enjoying the group hug, she bites her lip as their parents pull back looking at her and smiles slightly. ''They invited Me, Mike and a group of the best students to dance during the award show in two weeks to show everyone just why we are storming the top list so quickly.''
''Please tell me you will do it.'' Santana murmurs locking eyes with her, Brittany nods her head and smiles slightly.
''I will and I also notified the group Mike and I want to bring with us, but.'' She locks eyes with her fiance and bites her lip. ''It's a Wednesday and it's in Orlando.''
Santana raises an eyebrow smiling knowingly and tilts her head. ''Want me to come with you?'' She asks softly, Brittany nods her head and sighs.
''I love having you there with me but I know you have school babe.''
Santana shrugs her shoulders and chuckles. ''I don't care I will come with you, Sam can take notes for me and I can learn or ask him to record the lecture so I can listen to it in the hotel room.'' She cups her fiance's cheek and leans in kissing her softly. ''This is amazing news mi amor and I will love watching you and Mike dance with your students.''
''Which group will you bring with you honey?'' Susan asks having heard all about the different dance groups her daughter teaches, she leans down kissing her forehead and winks. ''Maribel, Lio and I will also join the both of you in Orlando, we wouldn't miss out on this amazing day.''
''We really don't want to miss out on it.'' Lio adds locking eyes with Brittany, he squeezes her shoulder and smiles lovingly. ''So proud of you mija.''
''Really proud B.'' Maribel breaths out kissing her cheek, Brittany smiles and clears her throat.
''We will bring my hip hop class with us, that group functions well and learns quickly.'' She tells them.
''Jake's group?'' Santana asks smiling big, Brittany nods her head and chuckles.
''Yeah those kids are the most dedicated, they did sign up to just have fun with friends but after a week or so they really changed into a well functioned team.''
''They will love knowing you picked them out of everyone.''
Brittany laughs and nods her head. ''Yeah I already received text messages from Jake and Nicole exclaiming how honored they are to represent the studio at the award show, Nicole's parents also took it upon themselves to make studio outfits for all of us.'' She kisses the top of Santana's head as their parents sit back down and smiles slightly. ''I called Jake and Nicole as team leaders so I know they will push their friends to give their best, Mike and I will also throw in some extra classes starting Monday so we have enough time to rehearse.''
She turns to Santana and bites her lip. ''Which will also mean that I will be home late on some days.''
Santana shrugs her shoulders and smiles lovingly. ''You are working mi amor, if I am bored I can always join you at the studio.'' She pecks her lips softly and hums. ''You want to invite Puck and Q too?''
''Yeah and Mike will bring T, we will also book the flights for everyone soon.''
''You paying for everyone?'' Maribel asks shocked, Brittany turns to her and slowly nods her head.
''Yeah Mike and I will both chip in together and pay for it seeing as it is in two weeks but we messaged the parents asking them to also pay whenever they can, the group also messaged that they will save up their allowance the next to week for a hotel room that night.''
''How big is the group?'' Susan asks raising an eyebrow afraid her daughter will pay a fortune for the flight.
''Six teens mom.'' Brittany tells her reassuringly, she shoots her a small smile and chuckles. ''I know what you are thinking but I won't pay it from my money, the studio is a hit and we will use the money we made from that.''
Susan slowly nods her head and smiles proudly. ''I told you that everyone will love the studio honey, I am so proud of you.''
''You told them the other great news?'' Santana asks softly, she turns to their parents as she shakes her head and smiles proudly.
''The award show will show everyone how amazing the studio is, but Britt is a hit among the artists all over the US.''
''What do you mean mija?'' Maribel asks curiously, Santana smiles slightly as she sees her fiance smile sheepishly and kisses her temple the proud smile on her face only growing.
''Britt here is not only a dance teacher but since a few weeks she is also a highly requested choreographer for music videos and next month she will be a dancer in the music video for the song Alicia and I recorded.''
''Oh my god B, that is amazing!'' Their parents gasp out smiling brightly as they stand up to hug her once again, Susan kisses the top of her daughters head and sniffles.
''I knew you would rock your future honey, from the day you started to dance I just knew you would mesmerize people with the way you move.''
''It honestly feels like I am living a dream right now.'' Brittany confesses smiling shyly. ''Life can't go any better at the moment and I am kinda waiting for the other shoe to drop.''
''Start believing it mija, people are recognizing your talent and soon you will be a known background dancer and choreographer while also running an amazing dance studio.'' Lio tells her proudly, he turns to his daughter and kisses the top of her head. ''The both of you will soon be known US or even world wide, you mija will storm the charts with your amazing voice and B will be known as one of the best dancers.''
''As awesome as that all sounds, it also does scares us a bit.'' Santana tells them smiling slightly.
''Why is that?'' Susan asks softly, she grabs Santana's hand pulling her off of Brittany's lap and leads her into the living room to sit more comfortably knowing Lio and Maribel will lead Brittany into the living room.
Santana sits down in the love seat cuddling into Brittany the second her papi pushes her down beside her and turns to look at their parents as they sit down on the couch. ''Well we are at the beginning of our careers and we know it will be demanding and a fan base will grow soon, but as thrilling as that all sounds we don't want any of this to affect peanut or our relationship.''
''We can understand that mija.'' Lio starts looking at the two girls cuddled up on the love seat, he smiles lovingly as he sees the protective hand Brittany as placed on his daughters bump and shrugs. ''But the both of you will find a way to make sure that won't happen, you already take enough time to spend together and as soon as peanut joins your little family it will get stressful but the both of you will manage it as long as you hold together.''
''That we will papa Lo.'' Brittany whispers softly as she runs her thumb over Santana's bump, she runs a hand through her hair and sighs. ''We both want to look how fast word travels but San's amazing voice will definitely storm the charts and as soon as her name is known people will recognize her so we will probably hire a few bodyguards to keep them away from peanut and to keep San safe.''
''The both of you will definitely make it girls.'' Maribel tells them smiling confidently
Santana hums softly nuzzling her face in her fiance's chest and smiles. ''We think so too but that doesn't make it less scary mami, B and I are already looking for a way to secure the apartment a bit more so in case people find out our address they won't get in.''
''I know the planning was at the end of next year, but maybe a bit sooner might be better even if it's just another apartment for a while but one with a doorman so not everyone can get in and out that easily.'' Susan tells them shrugging, Brittany slowly nods her head and smiles slightly.
''Yeah we thought about that too.''
''Well whatever the both of you decide, we will be there to help you out and we will support you no matter what choice you make girls.'' Lio tells them with a loving smile.
''We know and we really appreciate that papi.'' Santana tells hem with a loving grin, Susan smiles lovingly and sits forward.
''Alright how about a movie to shut your minds off for the time being?''
''Movie night with our parents?'' Brittany asks smiling. ''I'm in.''
Santana nods her head in agreement and stifles a yawn. ''You guys can choose.''
Brittany smiles watching her mother and Maribel jump up to search for a movie and leans back into the love seat thanking Lio as he walks out of the kitchen handing her another beer, she places the bottle down after taking a sip and chuckles as Maribel jogs into the kitchen to grab a few snacks.
She pulls Santana closer smiling lovingly as her mother covers them with the blanket they keep on the couch and kisses the top of her head as she feels her sigh happily, she thanks Maribel as she places a bag of chocolate raisins in her lap and kisses her cheek running her hand over Santana's bump as Lio pushes play the second all of them get settled.
''Te amo.'' Santana whispers softly as she nuzzles her face in Brittany's neck glancing at the movie as it starts, Brittany smiles and turns her head lovingly kissing her forehead.
''I love you too.''
