A couple of months pass as they explore their new found relationship, spending a lot of their time working to earn extra money but also spending time with each other, growing more and more comfortable than ever before.
As of now, Santana's sitting in the lounge listening to some music with Uncle Charlie as he's reading the newspaper when Britt comes bursting in, wailing incoherent words as if she was in pain.
"Britt? What? What's wrong?" Santana asks worriedly
"SAN IT HURTS! Ow, it hurts! I'm going to give birth already! It hurts, come here!"
Santana pauses and a wide grin breaks out on her face. Britt makes her way over to the other couch and plops herself down with her fake prego belly under a large t-shirt.
"Hang on, I'm coming! Wait for me!" San laughs out as she feels her way around to the direction of britt's wailing. As she got closer, Brittany runs to the over side of the room, trying not to giggle.
"Where are you" Santana calls out as she feels the top of UC's head "Whoops… Sorry Uncle Charlie! BRITTANY?"
"Saaaan, that's not me! Hurry! It hurts"
"Where are you?" San calls out desperately.
"I'm over here! Ow, it hurts! I'm going to give birth now" Brittany yells from her side
Once Santana makes her way over in the right direction, Brittany moves again
"Britt, what the hell! Come on!"
"Oh my goodness Santana, come on. I don't want to do this anymore! It's over, the baby's out already" Britt calls out as she pulls out her plush duck from under her shirt "You were too slow! What's going to happen to us if I've already given birth"
Santana sighs loudly, a smile tugging on her lips and Uncle Charlie looks between the two, equally confused and amused.
Santana reaches out and grabs brittany "Hah! I got you now!" wrapping her arms around her.
"It's over. The baby's out, went to school, graduated and everything" Brittany tries to state seriously
"Hey I was fast!" Santana reasons
Uncle Charlie grabs the toy from Brittany's hands and playfully hits Brittany with it "What's up with you two. You're acting like children!"
"Hey! Don't do that to your grandchild, Uncle Charlie! When he grows up, he's going to hit you too!" Britt takes the toy and hits him back
"Be careful, he may end up like that" Charlie jokes
Britt gasps "Nooo, don't be like that! That's your grandchild!" and shoves the toy into him.
"Oh yes, sorry" Charlie pets the duck softly.
Santana listens to the exchange with a smile on her face
"Okay San, kiss the baby!" Britt giggles as Santana plays along, kissing the top of the duck
Britt freezes … "oh wait. I think I'm about to have another baby!"
Santana's eyes widen "Well then let's go to the hospital" as she's quick to place her hands under Brittany's legs and hoists her up so she's carrying her bridal style, making Brittany squeal in the process.
Later that day, Brittany is brushing her hair through the mirror when Santana walks in.
"You look beautiful today Britt"
"How do you know? You can't even see" Britt scoffs playfully "Yknow you're such a sweet talker"
Santana laughs softly "I just know" Britt hums in response "You're beautiful Britt" as Santana reaches out to wrap her hands around Brittany from behind.
"Oh really?" Britt muses
"Of course" Santana smiles into Brittany's neck
"How beautiful?"
"The most beauuuutiful thing I've ever seen!"
"That's the problem! You don't see anything!" Britt whines with a grin on her face and hears Santana giggle
"You know I love you" San whispers into her ear
"How much do you love me?"
"I love you so so so much!" San squeezes her with every 'so'
Brittany sighs happily "I love you too, San"
A few days later, Brittany asks Santana to come visit her mother's grave with her. Santana knew how important her mother was to Brittany so she agreed to come. On their way, Brittany buys a bouquet of flowers to give and as soon as they got to the cemetery, Britt carefully places flowers at the headstone and stands up, tugging on Santana's arm as support.
Brittany starts to fill her mother in on everything that has been happening with her and also mentions Uncle Charlie as well. Santana happily listens to Brittany as she rambles on and suddenly perks her ears up when she hears her own name.
"Mom.. this is Santana, my girlfriend" Brittany starts and Santana smiles at the term.
"Hi Mrs Pierce.. how are you?" San asks "Didn't I promise you that I would take care of your daughter? I'm keeping it. You know I really love your daughter.
I promise you, I will never look at other women ever again"
"You're really crazy" Brittany saying, rolling her eyes as Santana laughs "You wouldn't be able to look at other women… you're blind!"
"Anyway, mom, we're gonna go. Who knows what else this one is going to say" Brittany throws her thumb over at Santana then takes her hand to head off.
"Bye Britt's mom!" San calls out as Brittany drags her away.
After spending the rest of the day together by the river, they begin walking home chatting idly.
"Hey San… what should we call each other?" Britt asks suddenly
"Do we really need that?" San questions back
"Of course! Don't be silly" Britt laughs "Okay so what do you think?.. Hmm.. I don't want honey or sweetheart, it's too common. I want something that is sweet and it should sound nice"
San thinks thoughtfully "How about… Baby?... Baby!"
"Baby?" Brittany tests it out
"You'll be my baby. Baby Britt!" San says excitedly
Brittany finds herself smiling as well "Baby Britt… hmm"
Just as Brittany says that, they pass a group of guys drinking as one of them seems to recognise Brittany and calls out her name.
"Hey Brittany!" the man called out "Schuester's men were just here looking for you… They were asking when you'll be back to playing poker."
Britt raised her eyebrow as the man continued "Apparently he lost so much last tournament. He said, he can get everything back if you're the one playing"
"She's not going back to that" Santana interrupts
"Well we're not asking you" the same guy sneered
"Well, I said she's not going back to it" San begins to step forward as her jaw sets
'San.." Britt places a protective hand on San's shoulder before she can get too close
"Aren't you such an annoying blind girl" the guy scoffed as he stood up to face her "I told you, we're not asking you!"
"I answer for her now!" San spits back
"Saaaan.." Britt warns louder
"She's not going back to gambling!" Santana raises her voice
"You think you're so tough, huh?" the guy laughs
"I already told you, she's not going back!"
"Geez woman, what's your problem" the guy shoves her
San stumbles back at the impact but recovers and steps back "No, what's your problem!" But Brittany is quick to get in between them
"No, stop it. Stop the violence" Brittany yells between them with her arms out
"Brittany, get out of the way" the guy yells
"No, no, wait" As she feels the guy reach around her and give San another shove
"WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!"
"Ow fuck!" San exclaimes
Britt is currently nursing Santana's bruised and cut lip from when the guy swung a punch at her after she clawed at him. As usual, Uncle Charlie is reading the newspaper in his favourite chair.
"I know it hurts, you can yell again" Brittany says softly
"Ow!"
"Why did you have to fight that drunkard, anyway?"
"They were bothering you" San whined "I'm your girlfriend, I need to protect you"
"It's hard having a girlfriend, I knew it" Britt mumbles
"What was that?" San asks
"Nothing!" Britt replies quickly "I said….I said it's hard being beautiful… people bother you all the time"
"That's why I always have to protect you!" Santana huffs
"And you're so good at it! You had a good aim on their faces! How was that?" Britt muses "How did you punch them? Like this"
Britt playfully connects her fist to San's cheek which gently turns Santana's face. San is quick to wrap her arms around Britt and they both giggle at their antics.
Uncle Charlie coughs from behind his newspaper and the girls cease their laughter
"Come on, Uncle Charlie" Britt giggles "I told you, you should look for a girlfriend"
Uncle Charlie lowers his newspaper and just smiles crookedly as he watches Brittany go back to nursing San's lip.
