Chapter 38
Quinn and Santana got the rest of dinner started while waiting for Rachel. Rachel came down a little bit later. She walked up behind Santana who was seasoning the mushrooms getting them ready for the grill.
She wrapped her arms around her waist, kissing her neck softly. "How can I help?"
San leaned into her, "It's pretty much ready except for the mushrooms. You can set the table if you want."
Rachel kissed her neck again with a nip to her pulse point then pulled away. "I can do that."
Once everything was done they all sat on the same side of the table cuddled together to eat their dinner. Half way through dinner Rachel had started getting nervous for the night to come. She snuggled into Quinn's side and ate thinking about her girls. Would she be enough for them, would she really be able to get through this with them? She knew in her heart she was ready for this, with them. It was her head that kept throwing doubts her way.
After they ate, cleaned up and called to check in with Shelby they headed upstairs hand in hand. Once in the bed room they lay down just snuggling together. Santana and Quinn waiting for Rachel. They had noticed her getting quiet at dinner and were letting her lead this. They didn't want to scare or overwhelm her. As they lay there they noticed her start to tremble.
The shared a look over Rachel's head then San shifted a little to look into her eyes. "What's wrong querida?"
Rachel looked up, tears gathering in her eyes, "I don't know, I just keep thinking that you deserve better than me. I don't think I'm going to be good enough for either of you."
San cupped her face. "Rachel, why would you think that. You are all that we need. There is no better."
Rachel burrowed in to her. "But I'm tainted. He ruined me."
Quinn gasped and rolled Rachel toward her. "No you are not. You're not tainted or ruined. You can't let what he did make you feel less. You're not, you're everything. You have always been good enough for us, hell you may be too good for us. We need you Rae."
Rachel sobbed and pulled her into a desperate kiss. Quinn matched her desperation, wanting nothing more than to show her need for this amazing girl in her arms. Rachel released the kiss and turned to kiss Santana with equal fever. The kiss turned tender and Rachel sighed into Santana's mouth, her body finally relaxing. Quinn taking this as a good sign lowered her mouth to Rachel's neck, gently licking and suckling her pulse point.
Rachel moaned as she felt their hands start to explore her upper body. Quinn trailed kisses up to her ear, "Can we show you how much we love you, how much we need you baby? I want my hands on your skin."
Rachel pulled out of her kiss with San, sat up and pulled off her shirt revealing her bare chest. She threw it to the side and settled back between them. "Touch me." her voice was husky, an octave lower than normal, and sent a shot of lust through both of her girls.
On a groan both girls descended on her, each taking a side and devouring her neck. Rachel buried a hand into a dark mane and golden locks, scratching their scalps lightly. "I love you." She whispered arching into them, "God that feels good."
They slide down and take a nipple into each of their mouths and suck deeply. Rachel holds them closer and arches causing them to take more of her in their mouths. "OH God." She moved her hands down and starts pulling on their shirts. "Off, please take them off."
San and Quinn sit up quickly to shed their shirts and bras and fall back into her. They all moan at the skin on skin contact. They rest their heads together looking at each other. Rachel kissed them lightly, "Show me." She whispered to them.
Quinn took her lips in a tender kiss as Santana gently ran open mouthed kisses over her neck and upper chest. She moaned into Quinn's mouth deepening their kiss, arching into Santana's ministrations.
Santana worked her way to Rachel's ear and sucked her ear in biting gently, "I love you so much carino." Rachel moaned lightly. Santana leaned up and into Quinn's neck kissing her neck softly then moving up to her ear. "I love you mi oso."
The girls ended their kiss, Quinn moving to Santana's lips and Rachel kissing her neck lovingly. Santana moaned into the contact and started rubbing Rachel's stomach.
Rachel lay back and just watched them kiss above her. God she loved watching them kiss. She snaked her hands down and cupped them both through their pants.
They both moaned into each other, pulling out of the kiss. Santana rested her head on Quinn's shoulder. "Oh god estrella." She panted out
Quinn bucked into her hand, "Mm that feels so good baby."
Rachel moved to pull on their pant. "Take them off. Pleeease."
San and Quinn moved to the side and removed the rest of their clothes. They moved back and Quinn pulled on her waist band. "Can we take them off? I need your skin baby."
Rachel just nodded, extremely affected by the lower register of Quinn's voice. Quinn and Santana both shifted to their knees, each grabbing one side and slowly removed her pants as well. All of them moaning at the sights before them.
Santana ran a hand up Rachel's leg and the other caressed Quinn's ass. "Aye dios mio ustedes dos son tan jodidamente hermosa y todo mio."
Quinn pushed into Santana's hand. "Oh, I love it when you talk to us in Spanish." She paused rubbing Rachel's stomach and San's thigh. "Simple gorgeous."
Rachel's breath was becoming ragged. They were both naked above her, lovingly caressing her and each other. She wanted more. "You my loves are breathtaking. I need you to touch me." She dug her nails into the thigh she had in each hand. Both girls groaned and fell into her.
Santana fell into a searing kiss with Rachel and Quinn latched on to Santana's pulse point. They both ran a hand up Rachel's thigh but Quinn moved hers to take Santana's hand and gently push it toward Rachel's center. She moved to San's ear. "Touch her baby, she feels so amazing."
San groaned into the kiss and moved her hand to Rachel's soaking wet folds. They all moaned at the contact. Santana started exploring her folds while Quinn took her breasts in her mouth and hands. Rachel threw her head back at the dual sensation. "OH god."
Santana was in heaven as she moved through the silky heat that was Rachel's core. She damn near came undone at the feel of it coupled with the sight of Quinn devouring her breasts and Rachel writhing beneath them. "Oh querida, you feel so amazing."
Rachel moaned loudly, "Santana… oh god Quinn!" She trailed a hand down Quinn's body and cupped her dripping center. "Oh bear, your soooo wet."
Quinn detached on a moan and leaned up to take Rachel's mouth. Rachel was in heaven, she detached from the kiss and moved her mouth to Quinn's ear. "Touch our angel, she needs you." She panted out and Quinn groaned at the mere thought of it, her hips bucked in to Rachel's hand.
Quinn sat on her knees a little and reached behind San, cupping her. Santana pushed back against her. "Oh Shit baby… yes."
San bent forward and took Rachel's mouth Quinn attached to her neck. They quickly found a rhythm, finding each other's clits and rubbing against one another. It was only moments before they all shuttered their release, screaming each other's name.
They collapsed into each other for a moment calming slightly then removed their hands only to seek out their other partner. Rachel pressed into Santana's clit as Quinn found hers. Santana threw her head back and shifted to find Quinn's.
They quickly found their rhythm again. Quinn leaned into Rachel. "Rae… I need… I want…" she panted out. "Please… can I… go inside? God I want to feel you inside."
Rachel kissed her hard and passionately, "Yes baby… please!"
Quinn shifted her fingers and slowly filled her, Rachel shuddering at the feel. "Oh Quinn."
Quinn lovingly stroked in and out of her and cried out as Santana filled her, hearing Santana let out a strangled cry when Rachel entered her as well. They found their rhythm again, slowly, lovingly stroking each other. Quinn leaned in and gave Rachel a breathtakingly slow tender kiss. When she released her from the kiss she turned and did the same to Santana.
Once they broke the kiss Santana and Rachel shared one as well then San rested her forehead to her temple, Quinn resting her head against Santana's shoulder looking into Rachel's eyes.
Their pace quickened. Each stroke becoming deeper, faster, harder until they were a writhing mass of moans and trembling limbs.
Quinn's eyes rolled to the back of her head as she felt the orgasm building with in her. "Oh god star… angel… I'm almost…" She trailed off losing her breath.
San's legs started shaking, "FUCK! Me too."
Rachel applied her thumb to San's clit pressing firmly and curling her fingers in. "Together… I'm so close."
San copied Rachel's movements and Quinn followed suit, their hips becoming erratic. A moment later Rachel cried out her release, her walls clamping down on Santana's fingers causing a chain reaction, and screams of ecstasy filled the room.
Once they started to come down San and Quinn fell into Rachel, trapping her between them. They lay there, wrapped in each other as aftershocks wracked their bodies.
After a few minutes San noticed a shiver from Quinn and leaned up to grab the blanket and covered them all. Rachel lay there rubbing soothing circles on their backs and kissed them both softly.
San looked into her eyes. "You ok mi amor?"
Rachel smiled, "I am so much more then ok angel. I love you." She leaned in and kissed her, turned to do the same to Quinn. "I love you bear."
Quinn and San shifted kissing each other with statements of love for one another and Rachel than snuggled into Rachel shoulders intertwining their hands on her stomach, sleep found them quickly.
Rachel awoke the next morning to find that they had shifted in their sleep. She was now burrowed into Quinn's neck with San wrapped around her back, an arm slung over her waist holding them both. She sighed happily and just stayed where she was, enjoying the feel of their still naked bodies together.
She lay there reflecting over the events of the night before. She had finally made love to her babies and let them love her as well. It had been wonderful. She had not once gotten scared once they started. She loved the feel of their hands all over her. She proved to herself that she wasn't ruined, she wasn't tainted. She could love completely, mind soul and body and let them love her same as well. It was a freeing revelation and the last remains of her tattered heart healed.
San shifted behind her kissing her neck. "You're thinking too loud carino. You ok?"
Rachel smiled and turned her head to kiss her softly. "I am wonderful baby, just thinking about last night."
San smiled back, "all good thoughts I hope."
Rachel pecked her nose, "absolutely nothing but good, amazing thoughts."
Quinn pulled her tighter into her. "That's good to hear. Are you sure you're ok honey?"
Rachel turned to her kissing her sweetly. "I promise."
They lay there for a while more than Rachel looked at the clock. "We need to get up and get food."
San pressed in closer, her breasts rubbing against Rachel's back as she rubbed circles with her thumb on Quinn's hip. "No, no food, just snuggles. You both feel too good to let go."
Rachel moaned at the contact. "God I love the feel of our bodies together like this." She kissed Quinn's neck and smiled.
She shifted her body and rolled over Quinn to rest beside her causing Quinn to moan at the feel of her body sliding across her own.
Rachel smirked at her reaction and Santana moving into Quinn's other side. "I just wanted you to feel it too." San leaned into Quinn more and kissed her lovingly, and Rachel moaned at the sight. "Food can wait." With that she dove into Quinn's neck. They didn't make it down to eat until much, much later.
They spent the rest of the day just being together. It was cold and had snowed the night before but San still took them on a tour of the grounds. There was a pool and pool house out back. They made plans to return during summer vacation to make good use of it. It was one of the few things Rachel's house did not have, her daddy had a fear of her drowning and wouldn't let her dad put one in when they bought it and it never came up again.
There was also a beautiful patio with outdoor kitchen, horse shoe pits, and volleyball and basketball court. There was also a barn that use to have horses but were empty right now. The basement of the house was a game room and the attic, San was thinking about turning it into a media room like at home.
When evening was upon them they reluctantly left their bubble of happiness and packed to go home. They were all a little excited to be going home to exchange gifts. San decided not to give them their gifts until they got home so her girls could give her their gifts to her at the same time. At 5:00 they loaded up the Hummer and headed for home so they could have dinner with Shelby.
Shelby and Sue were sitting in the living room having a cup of coffee talking about a little of everything like they always do. Now they sat in companionable silence just watched the fire in the fireplace. Sue turned to Shelby. "What are your plans for tonight?"
Shelby shrugged. "Don't have any. I'm not sure what time the girls are actually coming back or if they will have eaten by then. I guess I should text and ask to see if I need to order take out for dinner for me or fix dinner for all of us. You're welcome to stay either way."
Sue looked down for a moment then back to Shelby. "Would you like to go to dinner with me tonight? We can go to that Italian restaurant you like."
Shelby just looked at her not sure what to think. Sue just asked her to dinner on Valentine's Day but did she mean as friends or more. "Um, it's Valentine's Day, that place will be packed."
Sue looked down again. "I kind of made reservations hoping you would say yes. I just didn't find the nerve to ask until now. If it's too short of notice or you don't want to that's fine. We can just order take out or something and forget I asked."
Shelby smiled softly and pulled Sue's chin up to look in her eyes. "Are you asking me to have a friendly dinner with you or are you asking me out on a date for Valentine's Day?"
Sue swallowed hard, "A d-date?"
Shelby's smiled brightened, "I would love to Sue."
She leaned in and Sue met her halfway. They fit their lips together in a soft barely there kiss then looked into each other's eyes.
Sue smiled and leaned in again to kiss her. She added pressure and Shelby's pulled her closer. Shelby ran her tongue along Sue's lower lip and was granted immediate access.
At the first touch of their tongues they moaned into each other. Shelby pulled back a few moments later and rested their foreheads together. "What time is our reservations?" she asked a little breathlessly.
Sue caressed her face. "8:00, it's only a little after 5:00 now. You still have time to get ready."
Shelby smirked, "That's not what I wanted time for," she pulled Sue back in and kissed her more passionately. Sue was all too eager to let her.
Sue wrapped her arms around her and pulled her in to her body and deepened the kiss. Shelby moaned into her mouth and buried her hands in her hair and let herself be ravaged.
They pulled only their mouths apart when the need for air became impossible to ignore. They sat there, breaths ragged, trying to calm, just staring into each other's eyes. Shelby signed and leaned into her resting her head on Sue's shoulder. "I thought you'd never ask me."
Sue tightened her hold. "You could have asked me."
Shelby shook her head. "I was afraid to take that risk. I just found my daughter and now I have two more. They rely on you for so much. What if I was wrong and you didn't feel the same? I didn't want to risk you not coming around as much and upsetting them or me. If I could only have you as a friend I still wanted that."
Sue kissed her lightly. "Ok, I can understand that, but I don't want to just be your friend."
Shelby chuckled. "Good cause I don't kiss my friends that way."
They both looked up at each other laughing. Shelby leaned in again and took her mouth is a slow, deep kiss. Pouring everything she was feeling into it. Sue ran her hands up her back holding the back of her head and deepened the kiss. She was just about to lean her back into the couch when a gasp was heard from the doorway.
They looked over, separating slightly to see the girls looking at them. Santana and Quinn just stood smirking and Rachel's jaw was on the floor. Santana laughed, "Well that's new."
Chuckling at the look on her face they separated completely and stood to walk over to them. Shelby took Rachel's hand. "Baby, you can breathe."
Rachel let out the breath she hadn't been aware she was holding, looking back and forth between them. "How… when… I…"
Shelby cupped her face. "Are you upset with me?"
Rachel snapped out of her daze, "What? No, of course not. Just shocked. I had no idea you two were together. Why didn't you tell me?" Rachel was a little hurt that her mother hadn't confided this to her.
Shelby smiled and pulled her into a hug seeing the hurt flash in her eyes. "Sweetheart, this just happened this afternoon. I didn't keep anything from you. I wouldn't do that to any of you. You girls are my family, my life. Sue literally just asked me out to dinner tonight."
Rachel sighed in relief. "I'm sorry, you just shocked me."
Shelby released her and looked to the other girls. "You guys ok with this?"
Santana hugged her. "It's not our choice, but if you're happy I'm happy. Coach is cool. I'm honestly not surprised."
Shelby and Rachel both spoke at once. "You're not!"
Santana chuckled, "No. I kind of got a feeling when you went back to Columbus when you packed up your house. You asked Coach to keep an eye out and something she said kind of threw up a red flag."
Shelby turned to Sue, "What did you say?"
Sue just looked dumbfounded, "I don't know. I just asked them to go to dinner with me."
Quinn smirked, "You asked us to eat dinner with you and we all looked at you shocked and you said 'Hey it's not my fault. She's like this one with you two,' you pointed to Rachel and said you can't say no to Shelby."
Santana chuckled again. "Yep, that was my first clue. Then it was just watching you get closer. I figured it was only a matter of time."
Rachel looked to her and Quinn shocked. "You two couldn't fill me in on this?"
Santana chuckled. "I guess it was like with Puck and Tina. I figured you saw it."
Shelby smiled and turned to Sue. "So, you can't say no to me?"
Sue put an arm around her and spoke softly into her ear. "No I can't, your kind of irresistible." Shelby melted into her and sighed.
Santana slapped her hand playfully over Rachel's eyes. "Hey children still in the room."
Sue just looked at her. "Oh no, we've had to watch you three being sickeningly adorable for months. Deal with it."
They all laughed, Rachel slapping Santana's hand away and went to sit in the living room. The girls talked about the cabin and all the amenities and their plans for all five of them to spend some time there this summer. Both agreed it was a nice idea.
At 6:00 Sue leaned over and spoke into Shelby's ear, "I'm going to leave. I need to get ready for dinner. I'll be back at 7:15 to pick you up."
Shelby smiled and kissed her cheek. "Ok, I'll see you then." Sue got up, told the girls bye and headed out. Once the door closed Shelby turned to the girls. "I have no idea what I'm going to wear. I need help!"
The girls stood and Rachel took her hands pulling her up. "We will take care of everything. I think I saw something in your closet when we put up your clothes that I think will work perfectly."
Once they got to her room Rachel turned to the girls. "Ok, you guys get mom's make-up and hair products." She pulled Shelby into the closet as the girls headed to the bathroom. "Where are you going?"
Shelby smiled at her enthusiasm. "To the Italian restaurant in town."
Rachel bounce and lunged for the clothes, "Excellent." She pulled out a dress and held it up.
Shelby's smile grew, "Oh, I forgot I had that one. It's perfect," She took the dress and spun. "I bought this last year and haven't had an occasion to wear it yet."
Rachel smiled as she bent down to grab some shoes to match. "Well now you do." She paused and just looked at Shelby. "Mom?"
Shelby looked up, "Yes baby?"
Rachel looked away for a moment then back. "Why didn't you tell us you were gay?"
Shelby smiles softly. "Honestly, I don't think about it anymore. I came out when I was 15 and I struggled with it for a long time but after a while baby, it's just who you are. I'm just me and it's uncanny how much you and I are alike."
Rachel smiled, "I guess I can see that. Ok, let's get you dressed for your date. Shower quickly so we can make coach drool. Meet us in our bathroom."
Shelby laughed and entered the bathroom as San and Quinn were coming out with makeup and hair supplies. They took everything and set up at the middle vanity in their bathroom.
Shelby came in a few minutes later in a robe towel drying her hair. They sat her in the chair and got to work.
At 7:15 on the dot Santana answered the door to find a nervous looking coach. "Hey coach, come in. Mama Shelby will be down in a minute. Rachel was still fussing with her."
They both chuckled and Sue came in. Santana did a once over. Sue was wearing black slacks a white silk shirt with a loosened red tie and open vest. "Coach, I must admit you look amazing. I was a little worried you'd show up in a track suit."
Sue laughed, "Shut it Lopez, I obviously own other clothes. I just don't wear them to work."
Santana smile, "You should wear them more often, you look badass right now."
Sue was about to reply when Rachel and Quinn came down the stairs. "Oh my goodness coach, you look outstanding. Mom will be down in a minute she was getting her purse."
Sue nodded and looked up as Shelby descended the stairs. Her heart caught in her throat at the vision before her. Shelby wore a red dress that formed to her figure perfectly. It was strapless and came to just below the knees. Her hair was in an elaborate up-do with ringlets framing her face. Her makeup done to perfection.
Quinn took pictures of both of them, who were oblivious to anything but each other. Then took pictures as Shelby got to the bottom step and Sue took her hand and kissed it handing her a bouquet of purple roses.
Sue smiled up at her. "You look amazing, there simply are no words."
Shelby smiled shyly, "You look amazing yourself. I love you in red. The flowers are beautiful, thank you."
She came down the final step and they allowed Quinn to take a few more pictures of them. She then came over and kissed each of her girls. "Ok my babies, don't know how late I'll be so if you're in bed when I get home I will see you in the morning."
Rachel kissed her again and took her flowers. "Have fun. I'll put these in water and put them in your room."
Shelby smiled, "Thank you baby."
They left and Quinn went straight to her computer to download the pictures. Rachel put the flowers in a vase and put them on her mom's night stand. When she came back down they looked at all of the pictures, picking out their favorites until their food delivery arrived. Once they ate they shut down the computer and headed upstairs to prepare for bed and give each other their gifts.
They crawled on to the bed together with their presents. Santana handed them both a box of Vegan chocolates and an envelope. "Open them at the same time."
The opened them and both of them squealed and launched at her hugging her tightly. She had given them tickets to Les Misérables and Wicked for all of them. When they sat back she explained them. "You both were talking about how much you wanted to see those shows so I got tickets. Sorry they aren't in New York. The weekends we could have gone to New York were sold out so I had to get tickets in Columbus."
Rachel was bouncing in place, "We don't need to see them in New York angel. These are wonderful, thank you."
Quinn nodded happily. "They are awesome baby. I've never even seen a musical on stage so these will be perfect. Thank you so much."
San just beamed and Quinn handed them both a box and told them to open them together. When they opened the boxes they gasped. They were beautiful hand carved dark cherry wood jewelry boxes. The lids were picture frames that each had a different picture of them all together. Engraved in the wood below the picture was an intertwined Q, R, and S. Next to the letters on Santana's box was an angel and a star on Rachel's.
Rachel and San pulled her to them and took turns kissing her tenderly. Rachel sat back and looked at hers again. "Oh bear, these are beautiful baby."
San sighed. "My god baby what you can do with a picture." The pictures were of two different dates that they had gone on. Quinn always insisted on setting up the tripod and setting up a picture before they go on official dates.
Quinn smiled and picked up another jewelry box she had hidden under the bed and set it on the bed. "This one is mine. We have so much jewelry that is just scattered on the dresser. I figured this way we can take better care of it and have a nice picture to look at."
They looked at her box and smiled at the little koala bear next to the letters. Rachel kissed her cheek. "That was a wonderful idea baby, I can't wait to see them filled and on the dresser."
All three pictures were different, they were some of their favorites that Quinn had said she would print but never seemed to get around to. San chuckled, "Well I guess we now know why you never got around to printing these pictures for us."
Quinn laughed. "Yea, you guys were starting to get upset with me about it. Especially when I printed some and these were not in with them."
They laughed again and Rachel handed her present and box of chocolates to them also telling them to open them together. Both girls just melted when they opened the little boxes.
Quinn's hand went to her heart, "Oh Rachel." San just had a tear in her eyes.
In their boxes was a new charm for their bracelets. It was a gold star with an angel holding a koala bear etched into the metal.
San pulled Rachel to her kissing her passionately. "These are amazing carino."
Quinn kissed her as well then sat back taking off her bracelet to attach her charm, San was doing the same. Rachel just smiled. "I couldn't find anything with the combination of our three symbols so I had them specially made. I have one too." She pulled another box out of her pocket, took off her bracelet as well and attached it. "Look on the back."
They looked and Quinn looked up at her confused. It was the same intertwined letters she designed for the jewelry boxes. "How?"
Rachel smiled. "I accidently dumped your bag a while back and saw this design. I really liked it so I snapped a picture on my phone and had the jeweler put it on our charms. You're not mad are you?"
Quinn leaned over and kissed her soundly. "No baby, I'm glad you found it. I love my charm."
San smiled at them. "I do too, they're perfect estrella."
They got up cleaned up their mess off the bed and took their jewelry boxes to the dresser to load them up with jewelry then placed them above their own set of drawers. Quinn wrapped her arms around Rachel and San came in behind them holding them both looking at their pictures.
Rachel sighed happily. "They look perfect up there."
The girls voiced their agreement and went back to climb in bed to settle together. They lay there and fell asleep just talking.
This is how Shelby and Sue found them when they returned. They smiled, backed out of the room and headed back down stairs. Shelby walked Sue to the door. She had just wanted to check on them.
When they made it to the door Sue pulled Shelby into her arms. "Thank you for going to dinner with me. I think my date was the most beautiful woman in the restaurant."
Shelby smiled, "Well, I think my date was too. Thank you for asking me to go with you."
Sue leaned in and kissed her softly. Shelby melted into her and deepened the kiss. They stayed wrapped in each other and had no idea how long they had been kissing. They finally pulled back and Shelby kissed her nose. "I'll see you in the morning at Cheerios practice."
Sue smiled. "Ok, I'll see you then."
Once Sue made it back into her car and had backed out of the drive, Shelby closed the door and locked up for the night. She headed up to bed, happier then she could ever remember being.
