''I don't think I feel like hiking tonight.'' Santana breaths out as she scoots down her chair after dinner, Brittany hums in agreement chuckling as she hears the other three chime in their agreement and reaches over to poke Mateo's stomach as he leans back against his mami with a deep sigh.
''Ate too much buddy?''
Mateo giggles and nods his head. ''Si but it was so good!'' He looks around and tilts his head. ''No hiking?'' He giggles as everyone shake their heads in unison and pouts. ''What will we do now?''
''We could play a game.'' Jake offers, Puck turns to him and raises an eyebrow.
''Did you bring some?'' He chuckles as Jake shakes his head and sighs. ''See the problem?''
''Oh I know something!'' Mateo squeals as he sits up right with a big grin, Santana looks at him and chuckles.
''What is it mijo?'' she asks curiously as she notices everyone just turn to her little boy with a grin.
Mateo just turns to Brittany and smiles brightly. ''Britty, sing!''
''Sing?'' Brittany asks chuckling as she turns to him. ''What song?''
''Oh!'' Mercedes suddenly exclaims. ''You up for a challenge?'' She asks grinning.
Brittany raises an eyebrow and chuckles. ''I am listening.''
''Two of us give you two words and you either have to sing a song already existing or come up with one.'' Brittany blinks as she hears the challenge and smirks.
''Sounds nice, bring it.''
''I will go first and give you just one word.'' Mercedes breaths out grinning, she ignores her best friend's glare and locks eyes with the blonde. ''Girl.''
Brittany tilts her head thinking of all songs she knows with the word girl in it and blows out a breath. ''Many songs to choose from.''
''Take the one that entered your mind first.''
Brittany just hums leaning her head back to look up at the sky and smiles slightly as one song just continues appearing in her mind.
Yeah, that's my girl
In the passenger seat, windows down dancing around
Causin' a scene, that's my girl
Sippin' crown and sprite, in a ball cap turned back
Ooh, she got me like
Yeah, baby girl you gone and done it again
Makin' all the guys wish you were with them
But I bet they don't see what I see when I see my girl
Mercedes just smirks as she sees her best friend watching the blonde in amazement while Mateo dances in her lap and nods her head. ''Nice one Britt.'' She turns to Santana and smirks. ''Go Snixx and Mat.''
''You.'' Santana just breaths out.
''Love!'' Mateo squeaks out right after, Brittany blinks as she puts thinks of both words and tilts her head.
''Damn this is not easy.'' She breaths out chuckling not noticing Mercedes just cover her mouth in amusement as Santana shoots her a shocked glance after Mateo squeaked his reply, she gazes into the fire and tilts her head. ''Oh wait.'' She clears her throat as she sits up and smiles.
Take it
If she gives you her heart
Don't you break it
Let your arms be a place
She feels safe in
''Who sings that?'' Mercedes asks curiously. ''And what is the song about?''
''It's a song in the making.'' Brittany replies blushing. ''And it's about respecting your girlfriend and to offer her a place where she can be herself and just feels love for the person she is.''
''Your song in the making?'' Santana asks in surprise, Brittany rubs the back of her neck and nods her head with a shy grin.
''Yeah but it's fairly new and I only have part of the chorus at the moment.''
''When did you start writing that one?'' Jake asks curiously as he exchanged a surprised glance with his brother. ''We never heard that one before.''
''Yesterday night.'' Brittany murmurs with a shy grin. ''I couldn't sleep and I brought my lyrics notebook with me, so I just started writing.''
Mercedes shoots her best friend a smirk, chuckling as she avoids looking at her and shakes her head in amusement. ''Any chance you will spill the reason behind this song?''
''Nope.'' Brittany breaths out grinning. ''That is for me to know and for all of you to find out.'' She turns to the boys as Mercedes whines and winks. ''Bring it boys.''
''Good.'' Jake breaths out as he points up to the sky, Puck laughs looking up and stands up.
''Rain.''
Brittany looks up chuckling as she immediately picks up on their unspoken warning and jumps up, she turns to the three still seated as Puck jogs to his truck and points up at the dark clouds rolling up. ''It's about to rain.'' She explains as she notices their confused faces. ''We will quickly pack up our chairs and everything else so it will stay dry.''
''B move it!'' Jake laughs out as the first droplets hit his skin, Brittany quickly grabs her own chair and takes Mateo's with her as she walks over to the truck.
''Does something else need to be covered?'' Santana asks as she follows her with the two chairs left.
''Only the table with drinks.'' Puck replies as he slides the chairs on the bed of his truck after fastening the cover. ''Jake can do that.'' He turns to Brittany holding out her sleeping bag and raises an eyebrow. ''Where are you crashing tonight? Or will squeeze into the small tent with Jake?''
Santana turns to Brittany as she watches her eye the truck and nudges her softly. ''You can sleep in the tent with us Britt.'' She tells her softly. ''I will move our clothes and bags into our section, so you can have the other one.''
''Girl I am gonna search for cover, it's really starting now.'' Mercedes breaths out as she jogs up to them. ''Mat is already in the tent.'' She kisses Santana's cheek and smiles. ''Good night Snixx.''
Santana laughs and nods her head. ''Night C.'' She turns to Brittany as the boys sprint around and just nods her head to the tent. ''Come on.''
''B!'' Brittany looks over her shoulder as she walks past Jake's tent and quickly jogs over to take her bag he holds out for her. ''Don't think too much.''
She just nods her head kissing his cheek and jogs to Santana's tent as it starts to rain harder, she slides to a stop in front of it and quickly crawls in shivering. ''Damn temperature definitely dropped fast.'' She mutters as she kicks off her shoes, Santana hums as she takes off her own shoes and looks at her son chuckling as she sees his big grin. ''Mijo?''
''Can we play a game with Britty?!''
Santana chuckles and turns to Brittany. ''Want to play until he falls asleep?'' She asks softly, she crawls over to her son as she just nods her head and pats his sleeping bag. ''Lay down first mijo.''
She sits down beside him, covering her legs with her own sleeping bag after she tucked him in and gently runs her hand through his dark locks as he turns on his side to face her and Brittany who sat down at the end of the sleeping mattress. ''What do you have in mind baby?'' She asks chuckling.
''The question game!'' Mateo breaths out grinning, Santana chuckles as Brittany just turns to her with an eyebrow raised and shrugs.
''It's a game we came up with during a rainy day, we just ask whatever and the other answers.'' She explains.
''Sounds interesting.'' Brittany breaths out, she turns to Mateo and smiles. ''Ask away buddy.''
Brittany watches Santana with a small smile as she watches Mateo with an adoring grin the second he taps his chin with a soft cute hum and quickly turns to Mateo as he calls her name and she notices Santana slowly turn towards her.
''Yes?'' She asks the tip of her ears turning red as Mateo just giggles and Santana shoots her a knowing glance.
''What do you like more, Christmas or New years?''
''Oh that is a hard one.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''I love both, Christmas because I get gifted twice, once in the morning for my birthday and in the afternoon for Christmas.'' She explains. ''But I also love new years, spending time with my family and watching a firework show.''
She locks eyes with him and smiles. ''What do you like more?''
''I like both too, but I like New Years more because it's my birthday!''
Santana chuckles as Brittany turns to her in surprise and nods her head. ''I gave birth ten minutes before the ball dropped, he definitely wanted to make sure I started the first day in the year off on the right foot.''
''Your turn Britty.'' Mateo exclaims giggling, Brittany chuckles and locks eyes with Santana.
''San?'' She smiles as she just hums with an eyebrow raised and leans back on her hands after covering her legs with her sleeping bag. ''Are you someone who plans ahead or be spontaneous?''
''A little bit of both.'' Santana breaths out, she turns to her son smiling as she sees that he just looks at them with a happy grin and ruffles his hair. ''Mijo, if you could pick one really nice thing to do for someone, what would you do and for who would it be?''
''Build a beautiful and big kitchen, for you mami.'' He answers sweetly, Brittany watches with a small loving grin as Santana just leans down to shower his face with kisses and chuckles softly as he burst into a fit of giggles as she starts tickling him. ''Mami no, I need to pee!'' He squeals out laughing.
Brittany sucks in her lips as Santana immediately stops and turns her head listening to the rain. ''It's pouring.'' She murmurs as Santana unzips his sleeping bag, she grabs her leather jacket as Santana hums and bites her lip. ''I will sprint over with him.''
''You only have your leather jacket here Britt.'' Santana whispers frowning. ''I can take him.''
Brittany shakes her head as she slides into her boots and shoots her a reasuring grin. ''I will be fine, I know a short cut.'' She crouches down as Mateo stands up after putting on his shoes and wraps her leather jacket around him making sure the hood covers his head. ''I will carry you over Mat, think you can hold it in so long?'' She turns to Santana as he nods his head feeling his arms wrap tightly around her shoulders and unzips the tent. ''Be right back.''
Santana shakes her head as Brittany zips the tent back up before she can protest and drops down on her back. ''God that girl is one of a kind.'' She murmurs with a tiny grin, she tilts her head hearing her son's giggles fade the further away he gets and grabs her phone.
She raises an eyebrow as she notices a message from Mercedes and opens it.
From C: Heard you have a little sleepover with your blonde eyed beauty, need us to take Mat?
To C: Screw you, better help me not overthink. She is currently out sprinting to the bathroom and back with Mat only wearing a hoodie while her jacket completely covers him.
From C: Already wanting to see her soaked huh?
''Fuck you Aretha!'' She calls out as she hears her loud laughter right after she read her message, she freezes as she hears her little boy giggle and leans up biting her lip as she locks eyes on a pair of blue orbs filled with amusement.
''Bad word mami.'' Mateo scolds giggling as he crawls over after Brittany helped him out of his shoes, Brittany just shoots her an amused look as she whispers a soft apology and raises an eyebrow.
''Do I want to know?'' She asks chuckling as she notices the blush creeping up her cheeks.
''She's teasing me like always, if it wasn't pouring right now I would go over to kick her butt.'' Santana grumbles the blush gracing her features deepening as BRittany snickers, she raises an eyebrow as Brittany just smirks and frowns as she just opens the tent again. ''What are you doing?''
''Be right back.''
She looks down at her son as Brittany just jumps out of the tent and laughs quickly following him to the door as he immediately crawls over to look outside making sure to keep his head under the small part of the roof that sticks out and allows their shoes to stay outside without getting wet, she leans outside glancing around and raises an eyebrow as she watches Brittany tiptoe over to Puck and Mercedes's tent with a dimmed flashlight.
She tilts her head in confusion as she watches her tug on something connected to her hoodie and turns to her son as Brittany leans over to open the small window connected to the side of the tent. ''Do you know what she is doing mijo?''
Mateo just shakes his head and giggles. ''No.''
''Snake!''
Their heads snap over to the tent as they hear Mercedes's girly scream and burst out laughing as the tent suddenly moves wildly, Santana holds her stomach laughing loudly as she watches Brittany sprint over to the tables with drinks and shakes her head in amusement as she slides over to them after grabbing a few things and storing it in the pocket of her hoodie. ''What did you do?'' She laughs out as she leans aside so she can dive back in.
''Brittany!''
Brittany just laughs as she hears Puck yell her name and sits down beside Santana making sure to keep her distance so she won't make her wet. ''Just threw the string of my hoodie through the window, it's long, wet and small.'' She breaths out chuckling. ''In the dark it feels like a snake and according to Mercedes's scream, I managed to hit her face.''
Santana just doubles over laughing loudly and leans back out. ''Payback is a huge B, Aretha!'' She calls out still laughing, she leans back zipping the tent back up as she hears her curse her out and turns to her son. ''Never repeat any of that por favor.''
Mateo shakes his head and giggles. ''Never mami.'' He promises, he turns to Brittany and giggles louder. ''You are so crazy Britty.''
Brittany just chuckles as they crawl back towards the mattresses and winks. ''It's so easy to pull pranks during a camping weekend, I am surprised Jake didn't do anything yet.''
''You are drenched.'' Santana breaths out frowning as the light suddenly shows her just how wet Brittany's clothes are. ''Do you have any dry clothes?''
''Only my hoodie is, my jeans is still dry.'' Brittany reassures, she turns to Mateo as he taps her arm and smiles. ''What's up buddy?''
''What pranks did you pull before Britty?''
Brittany laughs turning her back to them to take off her hoodie, not noticing Santana's eyes immediately raking down her toned back as her shirt slides up with the movement and bites her lip. ''A lot, Jake and I normally team up on Puck and prank him.''
''Like what?'' Mateo asks cutely.
''I think the best prank we pulled was acting like there was a bear near his tent.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling, she turns back around after throwing her wet hoodie far away from anything that needs to stay dry and smiles slightly. ''Jake brought a bear costume without Puck knowing about it and I had an app on my phone with dangerous bear sounds, in the middle of the night after we all went to bed we crawled out of the tent and went over to his.''
She leans back on her hand as Santana and Mateo both laugh and shrugs. ''I think we never saw him sprint away so fast before, he wouldn't speak to us the whole day afterwards after he noticed that it was just us playing a prank.''
''Remind me to never go camping with you again.'' Santana breaths out laughing, Mateo turns to her and pouts.
''Mami.'' He whines softly, Brittany laughs as Santana's eyes widen and smiles reasuringly.
''I won't pull any pranks on you, I am sure the boys would love to though.'' She chuckles as Santana just groans and shrugs. ''I know most of their pranks, it will take a while for them to think of a new one.''
Santana just hums zipping Mateo's sleeping bag back up as soon as he crawled in and looks down at him with a grin. ''Who's turn was it mijo?'' She asks grinning knowing he will fall asleep soon.
''Mine.'' Mateo whispers grinning, he nuzzles his face against her thigh as she hums and wraps his arms around it. ''What did you like the most this weekend mami?''
Santana smiles gently running her hand through his dark locks and hums. ''I think today was my favorite, riding an ATV was amazing.'' She breaths out as she glances at Brittany with a grin. ''What did you like the most baby boy?''
''Catching fireflies.'' He whispers through a yawn. ''And covering aunt C, Jake and Puck with mud.'' He adds giggling.
''What about you Britt?'' Santana asks grinning as they lock eyes, Brittany laughs softly and nods his head to Mateo.
''I agree with little man.'' She replies softly. ''Showering the three with mud was fun, but I think driving around the track with the both of you and showing you a bit of country life was my favorite.''
''Mami your turn.'' Mateo whispers as he nuzzles his face against his teddy, Santana smiles lovingly as she moves him onto his sleeping mat and reclines back so she can wrap his arm around him.
She turns to Brittany and bites her lip. ''What is your favorite quote about life?'' She asks as she feels her son drift off to sleep.
Brittany laughs softly and lays down propping her head up on her hand. ''Damn that's a hard one.'' She smiles slightly as Santana just shrugs and watches her tuck Mateo in. ''Probably, the key to happiness is not doing what you like, but liking what you do.''
''Makes sense.'' Santana murmurs with a grin as she leans back, she sits up to grab the bottle of crown and smiles as Brittany immediately holds a cup out for her. ''Did you grab something for yourself?''
Brittany hums grabbing the can of coke she placed behind her and holds it up. ''I also grabbed a bottle of water for Mateo in case he wakes up thirsty.'' She cracks her can open making sure to soften the sound with her shirt as Santana just thanks her softly and takes a sip. ''Think he will sleep through the loud sounds?'' She asks softly as she hears the rain hitting the roof of the tent.
''Yeah he can sleep through anything.'' Santana muses with a soft chuckle. ''Want to continue or also sleep?''
''It's still a bit early.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''We can continue or do something else.'' She murmurs shrugging as Santana leans back sipping on her mixed drink, Santana just shoots her a grin and shrugs.
''It's your turn.''
