CHAPTER 12
...""Hi, Aunty Sanny!"...
She was shocked with the way her nephew greeted Santana. She thought Justin didn't like the brunette when he first met her, what changed? "Aunty Sanny? Did I miss something here?" she asked, wondering.
"Mommy, she's nice. She played with me and put me to bed. Didn't she tell you about it?" the boy said.
"N-no," the blonde answered.
"Well, hello there, young man. Come on, let's eat. What do you want?" the brunette said, avoiding the topic.
Brittany knows what Justin was talking about. It was the night when Santana first kissed her. Well, in that case, the brunette didn't go home after what happened yet she stayed with Justing and played with him. She even put the boy to bed. She decide to just keep quiet at the corner while she eats. She just let the brunette and the little boy talk. She slyly stared at the woman. She could read the amusement in those mocha brown almond eyes in every question her nephew asks. Nevertheless, the brunette still has this mysterious emotion in her eyes which the blonde couldn't name. She wonders what could that be.
"How did you know where we were?" after a while, she remembered asking the Latina. She just finished changing Justin's shirt who at that time was playing at the other end of the mat with Lucy.
"It was just a coincidence that I saw you earlier," the brunette said and smiled at her sweetly.
"Do you really think I'd buy that, San?" She said, not believing her that it was just a coincidence that the brunette was there too. Did the woman follow her there? But how did she know she was there at that lake park?
"Uh, okay, through GPS," she admitted.
She knows what the brunette said - Global Positioning System, a satellite tachnology that can locate a person using a cellphone, car, or anything that can transmit sugnals. Duh! Who's a genius now? "How? I mean, my phone's been switched off since Friday, and my car... well, you know."
"I put some bugs and wires in your things," she proudly answered. She even laid her back on the blanket, using her hands as her pillow.
She was shocked. She turned to face the brunette and emphatically pinched her nose. "Where exactly did you put it?" she asked. She doesn't know what she'd do if this woman won't tell her. She even pinched harder when the woman didn't answer her.
"Ow! ow! ouch! Hey! It hurts, Britt," the brunette moved quickly and the blonde didn't expect what the next move of the brunette was, until she felt that the brunette took her and wrapped her arms around the blonde. She landed on the Latina's chest. Locking their eyes together, as if they were having a silent conversation through them. She felt the beat of the woman's heart but she feels like her heart is even beating louder that it's already deafening and it's out of control. The was still holding one of her hands while the other was wrapped around her waist which the blonde didn't quite notice. She doesn't know how long they've stayed like that in that position. If it's not for the noise coming from the people around the park, she could have totally lost her self-control. She consciously removed herself from the brunette and sat beside her again. Then, Santana rolled on her stomach and rested her head on her palms, covering her face. She doesn't know what the other woman was thinking about.
"W-where did you put those bugs, San?"
"In your bag, Britt-Britt," she answered, still on her stomach and not looking at the blonde.
The blonde suddenly felt the urge to touch the brunettes long smooth wavy locks and feel how soft it is. It seems like it's really nice to run her fingers through those shiny locks that shines everytime the sun hits her hair. the blonde bit her pink lip. She haven't recovered to what happened to them earlier and now, here she is, thinking about those things. What is happening to her? Oh, you know, YOU. ARE. IN-LOVE. WITH. HER! Come on, Brittany. Oh yeah, the moment she met that woman, her systme just went all out crazy. She took her purse, then dropped everything that's inside onto the blanket. She has lollipops, chocolates, vanity kit, wallet, cellphone, medicine kit, a couple of receipts, and ah, an integrated circuit which was as big as her finger nail. She took the IC, went to a nearby trashcan and threw it there. She was walking back towards the blanket when she saw the Latina, doing something with her wallet. It seems like she took something there and put something back. What the brunette took from the blonde's wallet, was inserted to another wallet to which the blonde assumed was Santana's own wallet. She quickened her pace when she noticed what the brunette was doing. "What do you think are you doing right now? and what is that?"
The brunette put her wallet back into her own purse when the blonde finally arrived closer to her. Then the blonde took her wallet from the woman, realizing that her picture was already gone, and the only picture left there was Justin's. Then beside the boy's picture was Santana's. "Well, what do you think? I'll definitely look good there, right?" the brunette said as if she could read her mind. The blonde acted as if she didn't hear what the brunette said but she was totally right, the woman was - no, IS - gorgeous. She was about to take the picture out when she saw Justin looking like wan. Then she turned to Lucy, but the other girl was busy putting Justin's toys back in the bag. She dropped her wallet and went to her nephew at the other side of the blanket. Then Santana decided to be the one to put Brittany's things back inside her purse. "Why is my baby sad?" the blonde asked the little boy. Justin dropped his head, but before doing that, the blonde saw what he was looking at. There were children his age who were happily playing with their parents. She's sure that the boy is longing for the presence of his parents. But her brother's love for his son is not questionable since he calls him almost everyday and sometimes, Justin is the one who's calling him. She knows that sooner or later, her brother will take his son from her, and it seems like it's soon enough because her brother is already giving signs that he would. Well, he was probably taking this step pretty slow because he doesn't want to astound his own sister.
"Hey, Justin. Would you like to ride a horse?" Santana asked when she moved closer to them.
The blonde saw the excitement in the boy's face but it disappeared as quickly as it appeared on his face. "But I don't know how to, Aunty Sanny," the boy said sadly.
"Hey, I'm here. And Mommy's here, too. We could teach you if you want to, right Mommy Britt?"
"Of course! I love horses, especially unicorns. But I think they don't have that here though." the blonde immediately answered. But the boy only dropped his head down again. She unintentionally held onto Santana's arm. It's one of those situations wherein she doesn't know what to do. She doesn't know how to react with these things and situations. She felt the brunette's soothing touch rubbing circles on her back. She loved the way how her gentle touch soothes her, letting her know that the brunette is there and she won't leave her alone.
The brunette cleared her throat. "You know, you're luckier than I am, Justin. You have your mom who loves you so much and you have a dad who works hard for your future." The little lifted her gaze and looked at Santana with questioning eyes. "You still have your father and Brittany, here, loves you very much. While me, I don't feel loved at all. My mommy and my daddy already have different families, so I'm all alone. Do you understand what I'm trying to say, Justin?" While the brunette was speaking, she saw sadness in the woman's brown eyes and it really seemed so hard for her to talk about what she just said to her nephew. Is it the real reason why she could always see that strange sadness in those gorgeous darn brown eyes? Is all of it true?
Then Justin stood up and raised her arms. "Carry me, Aunty Sanny. Can you?" The brunette quickly moved, bending over and picking up the boy with her arms. This woman may be small and well, tiny... but she's strong for her size. That explains the muscles and the abs, and that awesome body. She got teary-eyed when Justin rested his head on Santana's shoulder. What her nephew was really longing for is the care and the love from both of his parents. Right at that moment, she knew that Santana Lopez would make a good mom someday. If what she said about her parents are true, she's sure that the brunette wouldn't want that kind of life for her own children. She caught those brown eyes with her own blue ones, and in that way, she sent the woman her silent thanks. The brunette just nodded and smiled at her but it didn't quite reach her eyes.
Had she really misjudged her?
Inside her, she knows that on that day, her bad impression about the woman would totally change.
"Let's go! The park with the horses is just somewhere near here. Let's look for the most beautiful horse for Justin to ride," she said in a livelier tone. She was still carrying Brittany's nephew who was wrapping his arms around Santana's neck.
