Thank you all so much for the reviews! I adore all of you. Please continue reviewing, it makes my life!

Some of this will be in Elisa's POV, and the rest will be Santana.


Elisa

"Hija?"

Elisa watched as Santana studied her mother, trying to figure out her intentions.

Elisa looked at her daughter, and she wanted to break down right there. Santana was her daughter, her own flesh and blood, and she just rejected her. Elisa threw Santana out without a second thought, without thinking what it would do to her. Listening to Santana sing that song and watching her cry on stage showed Elisa exactly what her actions did to her daughter.

Elisa couldn't help but loath herself.

Especially when Santana stood there, so venerable and broken, Brittany's arms wrapped around her protectively.

"Mother." Santana monotoned.

Elisa stood silently, watching her daughter and Brittany intently. She didn't understand why Santana chose to be with Brittany instead of a boy…that is, until now. She couldn't help but notice the way they looked at each other. She could see the love in their eyes. Santana looked at Brittany as if she just ended world hunger. Brittany stared at Santana like she was the only girl in the world.

Elisa could have kicked herself.

"Oh, Mija. I am so-" Elisa started, but Santana put her hand up.

"Save it. You're not really sorry."

"But darling, I am. I shouldn't have been so hateful. If only I listened to you when you first told me about you and Brittany, I probably…I wouldn't have been a selfish bitch. I pushed you away as if you were Satan himself, but after watching you sing that song, being so emotional…and watching how loving Brittany is towards you, and you towards her, I know that what I did was extremely wrong. I don't care if the church doesn't like that you are a lesbian, I don't care if the bible says it's a sin…what I did to you is the biggest sin a mother can make. I love you, mi querida niña. I love you no matter who you love. I now know that. I just want my little girl back home," tears were streaming down Elisa's face, and Santana and Brittany's eyes were being to well up with tears also.

The three ladies were silent for a few seconds. Elisa just then remembered that there were mother people in the auditorium with them, but she didn't care. All she cared about was her daughter's happiness, and her daughter's girlfriend's happiness.

Santana and Brittany stared at each other and said nothing, but it was as if they were having a private, telepathic conversation.

Then Santana looked at Elisa and stepped towards her. "Mom…you hurt me. You hurt me worse than anyone in the world could have hurt me. You told me I wasn't your daughter because I was gay. You said I was a filthy sinner! How do I know you're truly sorry and not just being guilted into being sorry?"

Elisa was taken aback by what her daughter just said to her. But she just sighed and took her daughter's hand, "I have never been more sorry about anything, Santana. I was stupid, I was selfish, and I was ruthless. And I regret it so, so much. Please forgive me, Mija. I promise I will be nothing but understanding from now on. I love you both, and I support you now and forever. Whatever you do and whoever you love, I will always be there for you," Elisa took Brittany's hand too, "For both of you."

The tears in Santana's eyes fell down her cheeks, and Brittany began to cry also.

"You will?" Santana blubbered, almost silently.

"Siempre," Elisa promised.

Santana wrapped around her mother, and they both were teary as they embraced. It was a few moments before they broke apart, but once they did, Elisa held out her other arm and smiled, inviting Brittany to join in the embrace. The whole Glee club burst into applause when the three ladies hugged, and they broke apart and jokingly bowed for their audience.


Santana

Santana went back to Brittany's house feeling great. Her mother and her were on good terms again, and she had the most wonderful and beautiful girlfriend in the world. Tonight she would move back home, and her mom invited the Pierce's over for a celebratory dinner. She was making her famous Spanish spaghetti with meat sauce, and Santana was excited, not only for the two families to get together and talk, but for the fact that she was finally going to have her mother's cooking for the first time in a week.

Santana finished packing, and drove over to her house with Brittany and her family (including her little sister, Katy). Brittany's mom had seen everything that happened between Santana and her mother, so she explained to her husband that all was well again.

The moment you stepped into Santana's house, the delicious aroma of spaghetti sauce and garlic bread took over your senses. Adam, Daisy, and Katy immediately sat down after being greeted by Elisa, but Brittany and Santana decided to help Elisa finish cooking.

"Are you nervous, mama?" Santana asked, concerned. Elisa pecked her daughter on her forehead and smiled.

"I don't know. I'm nervous that they will be angry with me-they sure have a right to be-but I also have a very good feeling about tonight. Now you two go sit down, I'll bring the food in a minute."

Santana smiled at her mother's response. She took Brittany's hand and led her to the dining room.

Elisa walked in with a large dish full of spaghetti and a plate with home-made garlic bread. Santana had to stop herself from drooling. She LOVED garlic bread.

Everyone began eating, talking and laughing. Finally, Daisy spoke up about the recent reunion.

"I'm so glad you two have worked things out. I was so worried."

"I know. I'm so sorry that I put not only Santana and Brittany through this, but you guys through this too. I was so selfish, but I promise I will always be open to everything now. I can't see her go through that again, especially since I was the one who did it."

Santana took her mother's hand, "I'm just happy that everyone is getting along. Ever since my dad left, I never felt like this family was complete. But now, I truly feel like it's complete. You all are family to me. And I couldn't ask for a better one."

Brittany took Santana's hand and kissed it. Santana's eyes darted right to her mother for a reaction, but Elisa didn't flinch or twitch. She just smiled genuinely.

Santana couldn't have been happier. She looked at Brittany and took her hands in hers. "And I owe it all to you. If you didn't sing that song in Glee, I probably wouldn't have had the courage to come out. So thank you, Brittany. For everything you have ever done for me. I love you."

"I love you too, forever and ever," Brittany smiled.

"Forever and ever," Santana echoed, and the two shared a soft, sweet kiss.
