2061, 50 Years Later
Rachel's life changed so much in the last fifty years. The biggest thing was that she didn't have the world's weight on her shoulders. She was actually able to enjoy life and be happy. She didn't have to look over her shoulder anymore.
Rachel had been without her mate multiple times after meeting her. But this time it was different. This time she knew that her mate was going to be okay. She could just wait.
But the biggest thing that Rachel never saw coming. It was her friendship with Santana. Santana was her best friend.
Glee
49 Years Ago
It was Quinn's birthday, and it was Santana and Brittany's first one without her. Rachel worried, because they were finally happy again. The first year without Quinn hit them the worst. Rachel wanted to say she was the most destroyed, but Rachel was used to losing her mate. Santana and Brittany raised Quinn. They were there for her first step, for her first word. They were there for Quinn's first day of school. They were there when Quinn fell and scraped her knee. They were there and now she wasn't.
Rachel walked to the house, wanting to help them. Brittany gave her a sad smile.
"How are you doing?" Rachel asked, looking at Brittany.
The girl shrugged. "Could be better."
"How is Santana?" Rachel asked, seeing the sadness in the younger vampire's eyes.
"She's a wreck. As much as Quinn was my little girl, her bond with Santana was another level."
"Can I talk to her?"
Brittany moved out of the way and allowed Rachel to walk into to the house.
The older vampire walked into the living room and saw Santana staring at a picture.
"Santana?"
The younger vampire shot up. She hid the photo behind her back.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm just check up on you."
"I promised Quinn," Rachel said, her eyes shifting to the hand hiding behind her back.
"It's okay. You don't have to check up on us to keep your word."
"I want to," Rachel whispered. "You're family. I want to check up on you."
Santana looked away. She took a deep breath. "I'm fine."
"It's okay to miss her. I miss her," Rachel whispered, taking a step towards Santana.
"Today would be her eighteenth birthday," Santana whispered, moving her hand so the picture was in front of her. Rachel saw the picture and saw it was Santana, Brittany and a five year old Quinn. "Why did she have to leave us?"
Rachel looked at Santana. "She had to find herself. She had to find a reason to keep living. She had to sort through her head. She needed to be away from us for a while. She's going to be back, I know she is. Until then, I am here. I will be here for you guys." Rachel turned to Brittany. "We are in this together. Why don't you two move in with me?"
Brittany looked at Santana. "I think that would be a great idea."
Santana nodded. "Yeah, being here hurts."
Rachel smiled. "You're both stuck with me."
Glee
Present
Rachel and Santana started spending time together. They'd buy gaming systems and just play. Brittany found a friendship in Kitty. They found they had a lot in common, and loved hanging with each other.
It was the fifty year anniversary of Quinn, Marley and Finn leaving her.
Not only did Quinn's leaving hurt, Marley and Finn's did as well.
Finn was the first person who Rachel created a friendship with. He was her brother, and not seeing him everyday left a small hole in her heart. She never thought she'd lose a brother.
And Marley. As reluctant as Rachel was about having Marley in her life, the girl made an impact in her life. She never thought she'd feel the lack of presence. But Marley was the person to see the light in being a vampire. Which made Rachel happy that she was with Quinn, to show her the good in being a vampire. But she did miss her.
Glee
Rachel was walking through the trees. She stopped in the spot she shared her first kiss with Quinn. She touched her own lips, feeling the tingle that came with remembering the kiss.
She closed her eyes. She froze when she heard a branch break. She turned, but was tackled down.
Using her speed and strength, she turned so she was hovering over the vampire (she could tell by the scent).
Her brown eyes connected with green eyes. She blinked a few times and moved off the vampire.
"Quinn?"
"Hi Rachel. I'm home."
Glee
"We just traveled, saw different countries. I finished school. I never want to go back. Kids now are even worse."
"How are Marley and Finn?"
"They are great. They went to the house. Marley missed Kitty, and Finn wanted to see Puck and Sam."
"I missed you," Rachel whispered, her eyes glued on Quinn. She didn't want the other girl to leave her sight. Rachel was scared Quinn would disappear.
"I missed you too. It was hard, being away from you. It hurt, but I was still really mad. But being away, I was able to sort out my feelings. I was also able to see the world, experience new things."
"Did you-"
"No. I haven't kissed anyone since you," Quinn whispered, looking at the girl. "Can I kiss you? I'm forgetting, and I don't want to."
Rachel smiled. Quinn moved so she was in front of her and leaned forward. Rachel just closed her eyes, allowing Quinn to take control (and only. Rachel was going to be on top. Missing Quinn or not, no one was going to top her). Rachel leaned into Quinn's soft lips. She slowly pulled away, and opened her eyes, seeing Quinn staring at her.
"I love you," Quinn whispered.
"Do you want to go on a date?" Rachel asked, staring at Quinn.
The younger vampire nodded her head. "Yes. I'd love to go out with you."
Rachel grinned. She leaned forward and kissed Quinn. She pushed Quinn back until the younger vampire was on her back. Rachel loved the fact that breathing was a necessity. Both girl's hands ran over each other's bodies. Rachel smiled when she felt Quinn moan against her.
Rachel pulled away. "I love being able to do that."
Quinn smiled. "Don't stop."
"I want to take you out first."
Quinn kissed Rachel one more time. "I want to see my moms."
Glee
Rachel smiled as she watched Santana and Brittany hug Quinn. If it was possible, there would be tears all over the place. Santana and Brittany didn't look like they were going to separate any time soon.
Rachel walked into the house and found Marley and Finn. She smiled.
"Hey guys," she whispered, watching as both stood up.
Marley reached her first. The younger vampire wrapped her arms around Rachel.
"I missed you. I missed hearing you reprimand me. I had so much ice cream."
Rachel let out a small chuckle. "What?"
"I have a lot of ice cream."
"I missed you and your mind," Rachel whispered, hugging Marley some, before turning to Finn. "C'mere."
Finn laughed. He wrapped his arms around Rachel and gave her a tight hug. "I missed you too."
Rachel closed her eyes, feeling her brother's arms around her.
"I gotta tell you about the ice cream," Marley said, jumping in place.
Rachel grabbed Marley's hand and pulled her to the couch, allowing Marley to tell her all about the ice cream.
Glee
"I'm sorry," Quinn whispered, looking up at Santana.
"We understand. But now we have forever, right?"
"We have forever. I love you two very much. You are my mothers. I wish I was able to see the world with you," Quinn whispered, "and I know it's my fault that you weren't with me."
"The world is always changing. We'll see the new changes with you," Brittany said, kissing the top of her head.
"Did you hate me?" Quinn whispered, looking at her hands.
"We could never hate you. You are our angel, our little girl. Nothing and no one could ever make us hate you," Santana responded.
"You were hurting. You needed time to yourself. We understand. You aren't always going to be with us. Some day, you'll leave with Rachel. It'll be okay. As long as we know you'll always be in our lives, we'll be here."
"Rachel asked out on a date," Quinn whispered, smiling softly.
Santana grinned. "It's going to be great. I've helped Rachel plan it for the last fifty years."
"I do love her."
"And she loves you. She only thought of you."
"Do you remember the first time you ever held me?"
Brittany smiled.
Brittany was looking inside the car. Santana was dealing with the driver and passenger. Brittany wanted to know about the crying. She saw a little girl, crying. she quickly unbuckled her and held her in her arms. The little girl was crying. Brittany rocked her.
"Ssh, it's okay," Brittany whispered, trying to sooth the girl.
Brittany went to Santana and showed her the baby. The baby's mother told them the girl's name before passing on.
Brittany looked down at the crying girl and felt the need to protect her. She rocked her, hoping she'd stop crying.
"It's okay Quinn, it's okay," Brittany whispered, as Quinn slowly calmed down.
Brittany stared into Quinn's green eyes and simply fell in love. She continued rocking Quinn until those green eyes were closed.
"Let's go get her things," Santana said, before the two disappeared into the night.
Quinn looked at their linked hands and smiled. She turned to Santana.
Brittany was out feeding, and Santana was left alone with Quinn. The girl would always cry when Santana got close. She didn't know she was left alone with her.
But Quinn soon started crying. Santana didn't know what to do. She stared down at the crib, where Quinn was crying. Santana made a face, before reaching down and picking the girl up. Santana held her at arms length. She didn't know why Quinn was crying. She didn't smell, so she didn't need a change.
"What do you want?" Santana asked Quinn, and waited for an answer.
No answer.
Quinn reached for Santana. The vampire frowned, but held her closer.
Quinn placed her thumb in her mouth and snuggled against Santana's chest. The vampire wasn't sure what to do. She just stood there frozen, as Quinn got herself comfortable. She placed her head on Santana's breasts and closed her eyes, using the vampire's breasts as pillows. Santana went to the living room and laid on the couch, letting Quinn sleep.
"After that day, you could only sleep when you used our breasts as pillows."
Quinn smiled. "I love hearing these stories."
"And we love telling them."
Quinn kissed Brittany's cheek, then Santana's. "I really do love you two. You're my Mama and Mommy, and you'll always be."
"And you'll always be our little girl."
"Always."
Glee
Rachel and Quinn had finished their date. They were in hotel room, wanting to finish the date off alone.
Rachel was hovering Quinn.
"You are so beautiful."
Quinn smiled. "So are you. I'm glad you are my mate."
"I'm glad I get to spend this time with you," Rachel whispered, before slowly taking Quinn's clothes off. They were quickly followed by her own.
"No one will ever compare to you," Rachel said, staring at Quinn's bare body.
The younger vampire smiled shyly, before connecting her lips with her mates. She gasped into Rachel's lips when the older vampire's fingers entered her.
"I love you, Rae," Quinn moaned, before reconnecting their lips.
Rachel grinned. She kissed Quinn's back, as she made the younger vampire feel good.
The first of many shared nights.
Glee
"I do."
Quinn smiled at Rachel. There weren't a lot of people around, but Quinn did get to meet Brittany's sire.
"The brides may now kiss," Puck said, having be ordained.
Brittany and Santana kissed, causing everyone to cheer.
As promised, Santana and Brittany waited until Quinn returned. The week after she returned, Santana and Brittany decided to have a first of many future weddings.
The wedding came to an end and Rachel walked up to Quinn.
"That's going to be us someday," the shorter vampire whispered, looking into Quinn's green eyes.
The younger vampire smiled and get Rachel a soft kiss.
"We have forever."
"And I won't have to gentle anymore," Rachel said, a smirked on her face.
"Who said I wanted you to be?"
Rachel narrowed her eyes.
"Come find me, daddy," Quinn whispered in Rachel's ear before running away.
The older vampire's smile vanished, her eyes wide. She looked around, before chasing after Quinn.
Oh, this was going to be fun.
Life was complete.
The End
