AN: Thank you for the reviews! Remeber it's co-written with Ananoncallednonie:)
It was bed time in the Pierce-Lopez household but Quinn wasn't having any of it. She had just been given her bath and was running around in her hooded lion towel "No jammies no!" She was yelling as she ran from Santana
"Quinn if you don't come get your jammies on right now you're getting a time out!"
After hearing all the commotion, Brittany emerged from Quinn's bedroom just in time for Quinn to run into her.
"Hi mommy!" Quinn giggled and stepped aside getting ready to run again, she couldn't risk being put in her pajamas!
"Not so fast, lion," Brittany grabbed Quinn's hand and lead her back to Santana.
"No no mommy!" Quinn whined trying to get free.
"Yes Quinn you need to geut your jamies on!" Brittany said in a firm yet gentle tone. Quinn threw herself to the floor.
"No jam jams!" She yelled. Santana took the oppurtunity to march over to her and pull her up. She placed a few swats on the girl's bear behind and took her to the changing table to get her in her pajamas but not without a challenge. "Wait mami! I need to potty!" She struggled.
Santana sighed and helped Quinn down from the table.
"You come straight back here, after, okay?" Quinn nodded and started dancing on the spot. "Mommy will help you," Santana motioned towards Brittany. Her patience was wearing thin with that little monster tonight.
"Yes yes, mami really haveta potty!" Quinn called out as she ran to the bathroom, not bothering to wait for Brittany to help her. Brittant quickly ran after her.
"Mommy no watch!" Quinn whined.
"Quinn mommy needs to be in here with you you're too little to go potty alone," Brittany said crossing her arms.
"Mommy...it gonna be icky," Quinn blushed.
"Then mommy will turn around," Brittany nodded and helped Quinn onto the toilet. She quickly turned around and waited for Quinn to finish.
"Meanie," Quinn mumbled under her breath. She swung her legs as she sang quietly before hopping off the toilet.
Brittany sighed "looks like someone needs an early bedtime tonight" she said pulling out a wet wipe to get clean cleaned up.
"No bedtime!" Quinn stated firmly. Brittany just scooped her up and took her back to the bedroom to get into her pj's. Quinn whined and fussed as she was dressed "No sweepy!"
"Quinn," Santana said sternly as she looked down at Quinn. Quinn knew to be quiet when her mami talked like that, but it didn't stop the whimpering. "You're going to bed and if you continue like this then there'll be no story and a sore bottom," Quinn's eyes watered and she flung herself into Santana's arms.
"Slweep with you?" Quinn mumbled into Santana's neck.
Santana wrapped her arms around Quinn frowning "What's the matter baby girl you always sleep in your princess bed?" She asked gently
Quinn sobbed "bad dweams Mami bout daddy!" She stammered between hiccups
"Oh mija," Santana cooed "It's okay,"
"Gonna take me away!"
Brittany pulled Santana and Quinn in to a hug and began rocking them slightly.
"He won't take you," Brittany said softly. "You're safe with us baby," Santana nodded, trying to reassure Quinn.
"Slweep with mami and mommy," Quinn sniffled. She just wanted to stay close to her mommies, she never wanted to leave them.
Santana kissed her cheek "of course baby girl, will you get you jammies on now?" She asked. Quinn nodded and laid back down. Brittany stayed by her side holding her hand whispering sweet nothings to her.
"You'll always be safe with your mommies Quinnie,"
Santana and Brittany hadn't planned on going to bed this early, but Quinn had coaxed them into staying with her as she slept. Sure, they could leave as soon as she was asleep, but the tears and tantrum before bed made them want to stay with the blonde.
Santana stared at Quinn, happy that she looked relaxed.
"He doesn't know she's here," Brittany said softly, noticing Santana over thinking.
Santana wanted to throttle Mr. Fabray she was neatly homicidal "How does a grown ass man beat on a little girl?" She whispered. Angry tears started to gather in her eyes "how did that worthless excuse for a woman just let it happen!? I just don't get it Britt!? How can they do that to my sweet little baby!? I mean look at her! I feel like the worst person in the world if I so much as make her lip tremble and those two...filthy beings are out there without a worry of what they did or even care that their child is gone!"
"Killing him won't fix anything," Brittany took Santana's hand and squeezed it softly. "believe me, I'm angry too, furious even, but that's why Quinn agreed to this," Brittany quickly look to Quinn, hoping Santana's loudness hadn't woken her. "we take care of her, we let her relive her childhood in the best way possible," Santana sighed. Quinn deserved better parents and she was glad her and Brittany where the ones to look after her.
Quinn started to fuss a little making a sucking motion with her lips. Brittany responded immediately and grabbed Quinn's pacifier from the side table. Santana smiled "You're right she's our little angel and if none of that would have happened we wouldn't have this she said rubbing Quinn's back.
"And I've never been happier," Brittany smiled and closed her eyes, sleep threatening to take over any moment. Santana checked on Quinn one last time, making sure she was settled and nothing was bothering her.
"Sleep tight princess," Santana murmured. She kissed Quinn's forehead and then Brittany's, chuckling quietly to herself as she noticed the taller blonde was asleep.
Quinn woke to her wet sheets, she whimpered, her father was going to be so so mad at her. She was supposed to be over this by now, she was too old to still have such an infantile issue. Fearing the beating she'd receive from the belt, she got up, changed her clothes, wrapped them up in her sheets and carried them downstairs to the laundry but Russell was already at the bottom of the stairs
"You filthy girl! Did you piss yourself again!" he barked smacking her across the face causing her to cry out.
"I..I'm going to clean it up daddy" she whispered "I didn't mean to..."
"You disgusting child you do this to make more work for me!" he grabbed her roughly by her arm and drug her to his study throwing her to the ground as he began to pull off his belt.
"Momma! help me help!" Quinn cried out to no avail.
"No one's going to help you!" Russell spat.
Quinn woke up screaming and crying and soaked in a cold sweat causing both Brittany and Santana to jolt awake. Brittany pulled her onto her lap rocking her gently "Shh shh baby girl" she soothed. Santana quickly stepped out of the room partly to cool off from anger she was feeling towards Russell still but also to prepare Quinn a warm bottle of milk. It was only a few seconds before she was back upstairs with her terrified little girl.
"Look what Mami has for you Quinnie" she cooed.
The blonde blinked away her tears and began drinking the milk hungrily. The sucking motion once again making Quinn feel tired but too scared to actually sleep. Santana watched Quinn, frowning as the girl held onto Brittany's shirt for dear life.
"Wanna talk about it?" Santana offered but wasn't surprised at the shake of the head from Quinn. Big girl Quinn clearly wanted to keep this to herself.
"You're okay baby" Brittany cooed "It was just a dream that's all no one is going to hurt you little lion" Quinn began to calm down she loved when her mommies called her that. She started getting fussy again feeling a bubble in her tummy. from time to time she would regress further that her usual two years and this was one of those times "Mmmaaaama!" Quinn blabbered.
Santana and Brittany smiled as they watched Quinn, despite being tired.
"Babyyy," Santana cooed, lightly tickling the blonde's stomach. Quinn giggled and grabbed Santana's hair.
"Ma, ma, ma!"
Brittany giggled "Cuties"
Santana kissed Quinn's nose "Are you Mami's baby?!" She baby talked. Quinn just smiled and gurgled happily in response.
Brittany glanced to the clock, it was 5am and now that Quinn was up there was no chance in hell of getting back to sleep.
"Ma!" Quinn squealed, grabbing hold of Brittany's hair with her free hand. Baby Quinn was very handsy, but they loved her regardless.
Brittany took hold of Quinn's hand and released her hair "No no baby girl" she cooed lightly giving her, stuffie in exchange. Santana got up
"At this rate we probably should get some breakfast for her hm?" She said stroking Quinn's hair.
Brittany nodded "Some dry cheerio's should do"
At the mention of breakfast, Quinn threw her pacifier on the bed and opened her mouth wide. She wanted breakfast and she wanted it now!
"Ma!" Quinn said, making grabbing motions to Santana. Brittany laughed and walked out the room, Santana and Quinn following close behind.
"Feeding time for our little lion!" Santana said as she sat Quinn in her high chair. Quinn giggled and clapped her hands, smiling at her Mami. She felt so safe in this mind set no one would hurt her or be mean to her there no one could say she was to old to still be wetting the bed because she was only a baby! She was pulled from her thoughts when she heard some cheerio's getting poured onto her tray.
Santana pulled a chair beside the high chair and sat down, she leant her head against Quinn's leg as she happily chewed on the cheerios. She didn't know when she fell asleep, but apparently she did. Santana was awoken to cheerios being thrown at her head and the repetitiveness of "ma" being chanted in her ear. Quinn pouted when she saw Santana's eyes were still closed. She wanted to play with her mami!
Santana sat up picking cheerios out of her hair "Okay okay I'm up!" She said looking up at Quinn who was smiling cutely at her "you're lucky you're so cute" she teased tickling Quinn's foot making the baby giggle. Brittany was still laughing at the sight. Santana smirked took a cheerio and threw it at Brittany.
Brittany gasped and turned on her best pout as she looked at Quinn.
"Quinnie! Mami's being mean to mommy!" Quinn crossed her arms and put on her best angry face as she looked at Santana. Brittany laughed and stood behind Quinn, undoing the straps and helping her out of her high chair. Immediately Quinn pointed to the corner, where she'd normally stand if she was naughty.
Santana gasped "Are you sending Mami to the corner!?" She cooed. Quinn made disgruntled sound and pointed again. Santana pouted and trudged off to the corner causing Brittany to laugh wildly.
"Okay Santana, corner for," Brittany looked to Quinn then at Santana, trying to hold in more of her laughter. "10 minutes?" She looked to Quinn once again who nodded. Quinn hugged her mommy, kissing her cheek to make sure she was okay.
"Ma," Quinn said softly, taking a cheerio from the tray and handing it out to Brittany. Food makes everything better!
Brittany kissed Quinn's temple "thank you sweet baby" she cooed. Ten minutes were up and Santana was released from the corner where she went and kissed Brittany "I guess I should apologize huh?" She winked.
Quinn pouted as she watched the interaction between her mommies. She wanted some love too! Quinn walked to Santana and tugged on her arm. Santana noticed Quinn's pout and immediately peppered the girls face with kisses.
Quinn giggled wildly and gave returned a sloppy wet baby kiss "oh thank you baby girl!" Santana cooed. Brittany scooped Quinn up "How bout we go snuggle and watch Lion King?"
Quinn eagerly nodded and pointed to the sofa. That was her favorite film!
"I call a Quinnie sandwich!" Santana shouted as she set up the DVD. Quinn babbled happily to Brittany as they sat down.
"Oh really? That's very interesting.." Brittany replied bouncing Quinn a little. Quinn giggled and squealed in an infantile matter. Santana started the movie and completed the Quinnie sandwich giving both of her blonde angels a kiss on the forehead.
Quinn, not wanting anyone to move and disrupt her Quinnie sandwich, opted for sucking her thumb rather than her pacifier. She hid her face in Santana's arm and closed her eyes, listening to the movie instead. Being baby Quinn gave her much comfort and she decided that she'd stay baby Quinn for longer.
The movie hadn't yet finished but both her mommies were asleep, and her diaper was unpleasantly wet. Quinn whimpered and looked down at her pants. She could slip them down easily and get to her diaper to take it off. Trying her best not to wake her mommies, Quinn slipped off her pants and kicked them aside. Now for the hard part. The blonde fumbled and fumbled with the straps of the diaper until she managed to rip it off. Much more comfortable.
The moving had jostled Santana awake she looked down at Quinn and smiled but realized soon that her bottom half was bare and a soiled diaper laid open on the floor.
"Oh baby" she cooed getting up "Mami's sorry we probably should have changed you before the movie huh?" she picked up her baby and took her to get cleaned up in a fresh diaper "There all better" she went into the living room picking up Quinn's discarded pants and throwing away the old diaper. Once everything was done she cuddled Quinn back on the couch Quinn patted at Santana's chest and tugged on her shirt "Ami! Ami!"
Santana shh'd Quinn so she wouldn't wake Brittany, but it didn't stop Quinn. Santana listened and looked at Quinn's actions to try understand what the girl wanted.
"I don't know what you want baby," Santana pouted. Quinn continued patting and tugging at Santana's chest. Mommies can be so silly sometimes.
Quinn whined "Amiiiiiiii" with a strong tug she pulled down Santana's shirt enough to reveal her bare chest Quinn pointed to her breast "Ami Ami!" she continued she wanted to nurse. It's not something they had actually ever tried but they had talked about it and baby Quinn wanted some mommy milk and she wanted it now.
Before Quinn was able to latch on, Santana pulled her shirt back up leaving an upset Quinn.
"Once mommy's awake, we can talk it over again then maybe," Santana wiped the tears falling down Quinn's cheeks. "maybe mami will get some medication so you can nurse," It was a little daunting for Santana and she wanted to make sure Brittany was 100% okay with this.
"In the meantime, I'll make you a bottle," Santana left Quinn to cuddle up to Brittany.
Quinn settled for holding the bottle as close to her mami's chest as possible, it wasn't the same but Quinn tried her best to imagine.
Soon Quinn had finished her bottle and the movie had ended now she wanted to play! Squirming down off the couch she crawled over to her toy box and pulled out her favorite toys, she tugged at Santana's pant leg "Ami!"
Santana placed the bottle to the side, kissing Brittany's cheek as she did so. Santana slid off the couch and knelt beside Quinn, smiling as she pushed the doll into her chest.
"Is this mommy?" Quinn nodded and pointed to Brittany. "She's real pretty, isn't she?" Quinn grabbed the doll and kissed it's head.
"Ma," She cooed, trying her best to sound like her mommies. Santana once again smiled.
Quinn crawled over to the table and grabbed the bottle and put it against the dolls lips cooing nonsense to it.
"What a good little Mommy!" Santana cooed ruffling Quinn's hair. Quinn beamed up at Santana getting praise in any form for any reason was always the best she loved it the most. Next she laid the doll on the couch and grabbed her little ring stacking toy trying to figure out how all the little rings fit on the pole.
After she figured Quinn would be busy for a while, Santana worked on waking Brittany up.
"Wakey wakey," Santana whispered into the blonde's ear. She smiled as Brittany stirred but swatted at the noise.
"Sh no," Brittany mumbled. Quinn looked up from her toy then giggled. She wanted in on this fun game!
Quinn crawled over to Brittany and tugged on her pant leg.
"Up!" Quinn demanded while Santana peppered Brittany's face with kisses.
Santana chuckled "Come on Quinnie we have to wake Mommy up!" Quinn giggled and crawled up to Brittany poking at her face "Mama Mama Mama" she babbled "Up! Mama!" She copied her Mami placing slobbery kisses all over Brittany's cheeks.
Brittany smiled as she felt the kisses all over her face. This was the best way to wake up. Slowly Brittany moved an arm and wrapped it around Quinn's waist, startling the girl.
"I'm up," Brittany smiled and hugged Quinn close to her. Santana pouted.
"And I couldn't think of a better way to wake up," Brittany added, sliding her free arm around Santana's waist.
Quinn giggled now taking a chance to pat on Brittany's chest "Mama Mama!" She said.
Brittany quirked her brow Santana pursed her lips "We should probably talk..."
Santana sat next to Brittany while Quinn continued patting Brittany's chest.
"She tried to nurse earlier," Santana ran her fingers through Quinn's hair, the girl smiling up at her mami.
"She did huh?" Brittany asked taking hold of tiny patting hands
"You think we should try it?" Santana asked.
Brittany nodded "If it makes her feel safe and secure of course!" She said looking Quinn in the eyes "But there's no milk in there yet baby doll,"
"Ami?" Quinn smiled hopefully at Brittany. Quinn was a mixture and excited and nervous about nursing.
"Mami will get the medication soon baby," Brittany looked at Santana who nodded. The quicker she got it the sooner Quinn would feel better.
"Ami bye!" Quinn shouted. That kid was impatient.
"Not quite yet little one" Santana told her gently at this Quinn burst into tears. She wanted Mami milk now! Not later right now! She carried on.
"I think someone needs her nap" Brittany said picking the girl up.
Quinn continued crying as she was laid into bed. Brittany hummed softly and Quinn's tears soon subsided into sniffles.
"Ma," Quinn mumbled holding her hand up with grabbing motions. "'Ion," she said tiredly.
"San will you bring Quinn's lion!?" Brittany called down the hall with in minutes Santana appeared in the door way not only with the lion but with Quinn's pacifier and baby blanket
"Here you go boo boo" she cooed giving Quinn her things.
Quinn slipped the pacifier in her mouth and cuddled both her blanket and lion. Quinn was asleep within seconds.
"I'll go pick up the medication," Santana whispered, kissing Quinn's forehead then Brittany's. Brittany decided to stay beside Quinn just in case she had another nightmare.
Quinn had made it all the way through her nap with no nightmares and though she was awake she had no interest in letting her pacifier leave her mouth "Ma!" She mumbled around it.
Brittany lifted her head as she heard Quinn speak. She smiled as she noticed Quinn awake and leant down to kiss the pacifier.
"Hey sleepy head," Brittany cooed, stroking the tousled hair away from Quinn's face.
Quinn reached up wrapping her arms around Brittany's neck "Mommy!" She declared feeling a bit more toddlerish.
Brittany smiled "wow such a big girl word!"
Brittany pulled Quinn on her lap, the girl giggling as she was praised.
"Mommy, mommy, mommy," Quinn babbled around her pacifier. She then look around for Santana, pouting when she couldn't see her. She was definitely there when Quinn fell asleep!
"Mami?" She said looking inquisitively Brittany.
"Mami went bye byes but back really soon she went to get her medicine" Brittany explained. Quinn satisfied with the answer began to rub her tummy. Breakfast was a long time ago!
"Food!" Quinn demanded, pointing to her stomach. Brittany laughed and stood up, pulling Quinn along with her.
"Milk or.." Brittany thought for a moment as she carried Quinn downstairs. "pancakes?" Quinn's head shot up at the mention of pancakes. Maybe she could have both.
Brittany sat Quinn in her chair and went about preparing pancakes singing as she did so Quinn would stay calm. Quinn giggled and wiggled in her chair waiting for food. She loved pancakes hopefully mommy would make bacon too!
Quinn turned her head as she heard the front door opening. Her eyes widened as she heard the sound of her mami singing as she walked towards the kitchen. Quinn played with the straps of her chair as she tried to go greet her mami. She missed her so much!
"Ami, Ami!" Quinn shouted, hopefully that got her attention.
Santana went over to the giggling little girl "Hi baby!" She cooed "looks like you had a good nap little lion your mane is crazy!" she said smoothing out her wild hair.
Quinn wrapped her arms around Santana's neck and giggled as she spoke.
"Food!" Quinn nodded as Santana moved away. She walked over to Brittany to glance over at the food, smiling when she saw pancakes.
"My fave," Santana smiled, startling Brittany. Santana held up the bag then placed it on the counter.
Santana made Quinn a plate of pancakes doused with maple syrup. She took them over to her sitting close by she stabbed some of them with a fork "Open up Quinnie" she cooed making airplane motions with the fork well she made silly sounds causing Quinn to giggle.
Quinn opened her mouth wide and happily accepted the food. Thinking her mami should eat too, Quinn grabbed a handful of pancakes and held her hand out to Santana.
"Yum!" Quinn said chewing her own food. Santana giggled and gently pushed Quinn's hand back.
"No eating with your hands, sticky," Santana said softly. Quinn pouted but held onto the pancakes.
Santana released the pancakes from getting squished in Quinn's fist and reloaded the fork "Here we go baby more yummies!" She cooed. Quinn opened her mouth wide and Santana fed her.
After the food was consumed, Quinn grabbed Santana's shirt.
"Ami!" Quinn smiled and tugged at the top. Santana gently pried the sticky hands away and shook her head.
"Soon baby," Santana said softly, wiping the sticky hands.
Quinn pouted but did nothing more. "So what should we do today" Brittany asked sitting at the table with Santana's breakfast
"I'm thinking a movie day in our jammies"
Brittany nodded and sat down beside Quinn with her own breakfast. Quinn soon got bored and began banging her hands on the tray, some syrup flying in her face which made her laugh loudly.
"Uh oh sticky face," Brittany laughed, leaning up to clean the blondes face.
Quinn tried to wiggle away from Brittany but to no avail "I don't think so munchkin" she said as she finished cleaning her up. After cleaning up the kitchen and getting Quinn all free of syrup. Brittany carried Quinn upstairs to their bedroom and cuddled up on the bed with a movie playing.
Quinn cuddled up to Santana, her hand falling on the latina's chest. She babbled quietly then slipped her thumb into her mouth. Brittany replaced Quinn's thumb with her pacifier.
When Brittany looked away Quinn spat the pacifier out and went back to her thumb she liked that much better, which is probably why she had done it for most of her life. Brittany looked down at her again and replaced her pacifier again.
Quinn whined then threw the pacifier across the room. There was no way Brittany would make her have that now! Brittany sighed and looked at Quinn.
"Baby no thumbs," she said softly, pulling Quinn's thumb from her mouth.
"Myyyyy" Quinn whined trying to get her thumb back it was her thumb! She could suck on it if she wanted to! She put it back in her mouth pouting at Brittany. "No!" She said pointing to her pacifier.
Quinn grabbed the blanket and held it over her face so Brittany wouldn't be able to take her thumb away.
"No," Quinn mumbled again, turning her attention back to the movie. Brittany frowned and studied Quinn. Maybe once she started nursing the thumb sucking habit would go.
Quinn looked at her mommy and giggled. She looked funny when she was thinking. Quinn moved from her place in between her mommies and climbed onto Brittany's lap, cuddling her.
"Well hi there little snuggle bug!" Brittany cooed tickling her tummy Quinn giggled "Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma" Quinn repeated over and over again snuggling into Brittany's shoulder "My Ma!" She went on.
Quinn grabbed a handful of Brittany's shirt then pointed to Santana.
"My ami," Quinn nodded and closed her eyes. Brittany smiled and squeezed Quinn tightly. Baby Quinn was so adorable.
Brittany tickled Quinn's sides causing the baby to writhe and squirm under her mommy's fingers. She quickly recovered and retreated to the safety of her Mami's lap only to get raspberries blown on her tummy!
"No!" Quinn squealed, trying to push her mami's head away. Santana laughed and pulled Quinn up, kissing her flustered cheeks.
"I think our baby is tickled out," Santana giggled. Quinn pouted and crossed her arms. Mommies are so mean!
Santana kissed Quinn's pout away. Quinn hid her face in Santana's chest. Okay so maybe Mommies weren't so bad after all. The three of them cuddled up and turned back to the movie. The phone rang Santana answered. A very distraught woman was on the other end screaming "Let me see her! You have to she's MY baby!"
