Chapter 3: Meeting Again
No One's POV
Sam is outside building a ramp for Santana, as Sam is building the ramp he's thinking about if Santana's ever going to walk again. Who would do this to her? Why send her to a place where she didn't even want to go? Sam asked himself in his thoughts. Santana never told him why she actually went, Sam was upset when he found about Santana and Brittany breaking up. It broke his heart because Santana helped him out with Mercedes.
Fuck I wish I was there to help her. Sam said into his head. Sam is so caught up in his thoughts he doesn't even hear his daughter calling him.
"Daddy?" Bella pulls on Sam's shirt trying to get his attention, Sam stops and turns around.
"Sorry baby, daddy is just building a ramp for one of his friends." Sam said picking Bella up.
"Daddy, we have to go to party city today." Bella said playing with Sam's necklace Santana gave him when they were kids.
"That's right, good thing it's still early." Sam said looking at his clock as it reads 11:30.
"Is momma coming?" Bella asked Sam sadly. Sam sighs sadly, not wanting to upset his little girl.
"I don't know baby, I've tried calling her." Sam tells her honestly. Sam and Mercedes broke up a year after they graduated. Mercedes got offered a record deal with Atlantic Records, so she moved to New York. He's been doing this by himself for 2 years straight. Mercedes and Sam had a one night stand when he met her in New York. Mercedes came to LA and she had Bella, and then left 2 weeks after leaving Sam alone.
"Oh." Bella said sadly, Sam puts Bella into her car seat and shuts the door. Sam is trying to be strong for Bella, but he's still hurt. It's been 2 years and it hurts so badly. Sam gets into the car and heads to party city.

Santana is getting ready for Bella's party, she has on army cargo shorts, a green tank top, and her while converse. Santana's tattoos are shown. Santana has rose tattoo in between the stem, she also has payer hands on her arm, and a cross with her and Brittany's graduation date on her right arm, and last she has Sam's initials on her neck.
Santana rolls out of her room and sees Derrick packing up the food they cooked for Bella last night when they called Sam. Derrick and Santana loads up everything and they head out to Sam's house. When they arrived Sam's house is filled with cars. Derrick looks over at Santana and sees that she's nervous.
"Hey, you okay?" He places his hand onto her and she sighs.
"I'm nervous, everyone is here and I'm scared." Santana admits, she's not scared of war, but she's scared going into a 3 year old's b-day party.
"Hey, it's going to be okay. Let's go have fun." Derrick helps Santana out of the car and they grab the stuff heading to the back. Sam looks up and sees them, he runs over to them helping them out.
"Hey guys." Sam kisses Santana's head and hugs Derrick.
"Hey Sam." Both Santana and Derrick greets the blonde. Santana rolls to the table and places the cupcakes on the table.
"Santana?" She hears that voice she couldn't stand her whole high school life, but she learned to deal with after their duet in Glee. Santana turns to see Rachel Berry standing there looking amazing.
"Hey Berry." Santana greets the Broadway star.
"I…." Rachel doesn't even know what to say to the Latina. She and Santana haven't spoken to each other in 3 years.
"Just hug me Berry." Santana reaches up a little and pulls the tiny woman towards her.
"I'm so sorry." Rachel cries into the Latina's shoulder. Santana's grip tightens around Rachel's small body.
"For what?" Santana asked rubbing her back.
"For not calling you, I feel upset, because we've tried being friends." Rachel pulls back look down at Santana.
"Its fine Rachel, I know how important being a star was to you." Santana says to her.
"I know, but…." Rachel is interrupted by Puck.
"Santana?" Puck walks up to them and his eyes widen along with everyone else's.
"Hello everyone." Santana gives them a small wave.
"What the hell?" Quinn looks at Santana who sighs. She knew everyone was going to feel sorry for her.
"This is a joke right? There's no way you're in a fucking wheelchair." Puck shakes his head angrily.
"It's not a joke Puck." Derrick said coming up beside Santana.
"Derrick?" Quinn is in shock that Santana and Derrick are still friends.
"Hey Quinn." Derrick says to the blonde, he and Quinn were never on good terms, because Derrick went to another school. They had real bad beef back in high school.
"Sorry we're late." An angelic voice comes for afar. Santana rolls through everyone and sees the love of her life standing there with a guy, a little boy, and a dog.
"Brittany?" Santana starts at the beautiful blonde and smiles.
"S-Santana?" Brittany let's go of Josh's hand and walks up to her.
"Mommy, is this her?" Brayden asked coming up beside Brittany, he looks at Santana with his blue eyes.
"Yes baby." Brittany nods her head at him.
"You have a son?" Santana asked getting angry that Brittany has a son with the dude that's standing behind Brittany.
"Yes, he's your son Santana." Brittany said to the Latina. Derrick chokes on his drink, Rachel pats his back when he starts to cough.
"Wait? You were pregnant when we broke up?" Santana asked the tall blonde.
"Y-yes. I didn't know until after we did. I went home and took a test and it was positive." Brittany said.
Santana was about to speak, but Sam comes out with Bella blindfolded.
"Birthday girls is ready." Sam puts Bella down and takes the blindfold off.
"Wow Daddy! I love Frozen!" Bella cheers. When they went to party city Sam had to hide all of the decorations from Bella.
"I know baby." Sam laughs at his little girl. "Come on guys let's have some fun." Sam said to everyone. Everyone started to have fun at Bella's party. Bella met Santana and instantly fell in love with Santana. Santana bought Bella a dog tag necklace with the letter B on it. Bella cried and thanked the Latina. Derrick bought her a frozen bike.
2 hours later
Everyone is in Sam's living room talking about their careers. Brayden is looking at Santana with a sad look, he didn't expect Santana to be in a wheelchair. Bray gets out of Brittany's lap and goes over to Santana. Santana looks down at her son.
"I'm Brayden Santiago Lopez – Pierce." He holds his hand out for a shake.
"Santana Lopez." Santana shakes his hand. Everyone smiles at the both of them, especially Brittany and Sunday. Josh not so much.
"Mommy told me I had another mommy, I wanted to meet you." Bray said to Santana. Santana looks down at her son and smiles.
"I'm glad you asked to see me." Santana picks him up and puts Bray into her lap. "Brittany can we talk outside?" Santana asked her ex feeling her blood boil at Josh because he has his arms on Brittany's shoulder.
"Sure." Brittany stands up, unwrapping herself from Josh.
"Do I need to come too?" Josh asked Brittany standing up.
"No you don't, we can talk alone." Santana said bitterly at Josh, everywhere looks away from the Latina not wanting to make her mad. Santana rolls out with Bray laughing. Josh gets angry at the Latina.
"Josh she's right, we really need to talk alone." Brittany said softly.
"What about Brayden?" He asked.
"He's fine Josh. Santana is not going to hurt him!" Brittany says in frustration, she walks out with Sunday behind her. Brittany sees Santana playing with Brayden, the blonde smiles at the two. Santana looks over at Brittany and sighs.
"Where do we begin Britt?" Santana asked rolling up to Brittany.
"I don't know San, I didn't know how to reach you. Your parents disconnected their phones and Sam was going through a hard time with Mercedes, no one else had your number. I'm sorry about not telling you before you left." Brittany said feeling her tears fill her eyes. Bray looks at the Latina whose eyes are doing the same.
"I have a son." Santana laughs a little bit, looking down at Bray who's playing with her dog tags.
"Yeah, he's been asking about you. Ummm, I'm getting married San, to Josh. I want you to come for Brayden. He wants you there." Brittany said.
"You know I'm going to be jealous watching you marry that guy right?" Santana rolls a little closer to Brittany.
"I know, don't kill him." Brittany chuckles. Santana reaches over and locks her fingers with Brittany's, the both gasp when they feel that spark. Brittany tries to pull her hand away, but Santana strokes her hand with her thumb.
"I'm not going to let you go again Britt. I don't care if you're getting married to Stinky off of Hey Arnold." Santana laughs. Brittany laughs shaking her head at Santana. Santana looks down at Sunday and smiles.
"That's Sunday." Bray bends down to pet him.
"He's cute." Santana said.
"I don't like Josh." Bray said.
"Why not son?" Santana looks down at Bray.
"He's a dick." Bray says.
"Brayden!" Brittany shrieks at her son's words.
"Josh said it one time at the TV." Brayden shrugs at his mom. Brittany groans in frustration, Santana just shakes her head, Brady gets off Santana's lap and plays with Sunday. Santana reaches over to stoke Brittany's face.
"I still love you Britt." Santana said pulling Brittany closer. Josh sees this and he storms over to them.
"Back off!" Josh push Santana away from Brittany.
"Josh, what the hell?!" Brittany stands up pushing him back.
"That was little too close Brittany." Josh says angrily. Sunday barks angrily at Josh. Josh moves pass Brittany and pushes Santana out of her chair. Puck and Derrick sees this and they run over to help Santana.
"Hey Josh!" Sam yells.
"Wha…." Josh is cut off with Sam giving him a spear.
"Damn!" Quinn yells recording the whole thing. Rachel smacks her shoulder. Santana rolls up to Josh and pushes herself onto his body. Santana starts to punch Josh over and over, until she's put back into her chair by Derrick and Puck. Bray runs up and kicks Josh in his face.
"Stay away from my mommies!" Bray kicks Josh in the nuts.
"Fuck!" Josh screams in pain. Brayden storms away from Josh leaving Josh on the ground and Brittany staring at her son with wide eyes. He is so Santana's son. Brittany steps over Josh, walking into the house. Brittany checks on Santana.
"You okay?" Brittany asked pulling some grass off of Santana's shirt.
"Yeah, I'm good. I got my licks in." Santana said feeling pain in her lower back. Maybe forcing herself out of the chair wasn't a good idea. Derrick gives Santana's two of her pills, she takes them leaning back into her chair.
"Is this what you have to go through?" Mike asked the Latina.
"Yeah, I was hurt real back, and I only have a 25% chance of walking again.
"We're so sorry Santana." Tina said to her, Santana nods.
"Let's go, I'm tired." Santana turns to roll away, but Brayden stops.
"Don't go." He climbs onto Santana's lap and hugs her. Brittany feels her tears forming, Brayden is not really fond of people. Sunday hops onto Santana's lap and rubs his head against her belly.
"They really don't like anyone." Brittany says frowning at Sunday and Brayden.
"We have that Snixx bond." Santana winks at Brittany, Brittany rolls her eyes. "Hey son, how about we spend the whole day together tomorrow after daycare?" Santana asked.
"Mama, can I hang out with mommy?" Bray pouts. So does Sunday.
"Yeah, mama?" Santana does her pout as well.
"This is ridiculous." Brittany looks at the three of them. "Fine." Brittany ruffles Bray's hair.
"Cool." Brayden kisses Santana's cheek and runs over to Bella. Santana watches as her son shares his toys with Bella, Bella lays her head on Bray's shoulder.
"That's my boy." Santana smiles, but Brittany smacks the back of her head. "Ow." Santana rubs her head.
Sam thanks everyone for coming to the party, Santana and Brittany are talking by her car.
"We really need to have that real talk San, things ended badly between us." Brittany tells the Latina.
"I know, Britt. How about we talk after I hang out with Brayden? We could have dinner at my house and talk." Santana said looking into the beautiful blue eyes she's missed so much.
"Yeah, sounds good." Brittany kisses Santana's head, and gives the Latina her number. Brittany walks over to her car putting Brayden and Sunday in. Derrick walks up to the Latina with a smile.
"Why are you smiling?" Santana asked looking at his face.
"I got Quinn's number." Derrick said.
"Huh? You two hate each other." Santana said in confusion.
"Maybe, we need to work somethings out, I mean Quinn was always hot." Derricks helps Santana into the car.
"You two are some fucking weirdos." Santana laughs at Derrick.
"Yeah, we are." He shuts the door and gets into the driver's seat, as they're heading home, Santana thinks about Brittany the whole way there. "Maybe we can finally start our relationship over." Santana thinks as she looks out the window.
