AUTHORS NOTE: Hi everyone. It's been a while. I've had a lot of school & work to do these past few weeks. Plus I really wanted to think of where I was going with the story and how far I was going to take the epic relationship that is Quinn and Brittany. (I love Brittany and Santana, but I want more people to write about Quinn and Brittany, because they're FIERCE. & I can't QUITT them. You know?)
I wasn't really sure if people were enjoying it, so I had this chapter written for a few weeks, but I kept rereading it and adding stuff before this post. Actually, today someone PMed about how they liked the story and wanted me to update soon, so I tried my best to get this out as quickly as possible. I know when I read stories and author's take a while to post, I get really antsy. But now I understand both sides of being a reader and a writer. I just want people to enjoy the story and not lose interest, you know? Keep the reviews coming please. It motivates me to keep going, otherwise I just sit at my laptop staring at the chapters, wondering if I'm doing okay.
Anyways, enough of my random rant.
This chapter is the day after. Enjoy! & Don't forget to review. Please? Thank you.
Chapter 15
Saturday...the morning after ;)
Quinn woke up in Brittany's arms, like she usually did, with Brittany spooning her from behind. However, this time it was different. Other than the fact that the two were pretty much naked under the covers, she woke up with the sense that Brittany really did love her more than she thought. Quinn saw it in the way Brittany took her time and was patient with her last night.
Turning around in Brittany's arms to face her, Quinn tried to be careful not to wake the other blonde up. Brittany stirred a little, ending up lying flat on her back but showed no other sign of waking up anytime soon. Quinn propped her head up with one hand, while the other made its way to Brittany's abs tracing patterns, just lying there admiring the blonde. She thought of everything Brittany did last night to make her feel like she was on cloud 9; also hoping she made Brittany feel the same way. As she thought, Quinn couldn't even tell if the baby inside her was kicking, or if the butterflies she felt for Brittany were in full force, either way, it made her smile. It caused her to lean closer to Brittany to place a soft kiss on the other blonde's bare shoulder.
Brittany's eyes fluttered opened and she smiled at the feel of Quinn kissing her shoulder.
"Hmmmm, morning Quinnie the Pooh." Brittany said turning to lie on her side to mirror Quinn's position.
Quinn just smiled, slightly flushed, before Brittany kissed her full on the lips.
"I wish you were my first," Quinn admitted as she laced her fingers with Brittany's.
"First what?" Brittany asked clueless.
Quinn giggled and rolled her eyes. "The first person I shared myself with…"
"Oh, well, you can share yourself with me anytime. It's okay if I wasn't the first, but I'm your 2nd, hopefully your 3rd and 4th and so on…if you're lucky." Brittany said nonchalantly, as she rubbed Quinn's very pregnant belly.
"Who knows, you could be my last…my forever and always" Quinn thought before playing along, "If I'm lucky, huh?"
"Oh don't worry Q, I think you'll be lucky for a while." Brittany added with a smirk.
"Hmmm, that's good to know…"
"Awww, it's already noon! I have to pick up Hannah in like 30 minutes." Brittany frowned at the thought that their alone time was kind of at an end, but continued to ramble about her little sister, "She was so excited for her sleepover. I remember when I was little and I had my first sleepover. No one ever sleeps at sleepovers…I bet she's going to come home and knock out on her bed…"
Quinn really wasn't paying attention to what Brittany had just said due to the fact that she was daydreaming about the night before and what the future had in store for her, and pretty much clueless to the fact that Brittany had already gotten up and started putting clothes on.
"Quinnie the Pooh, are you even listening?" Brittany said as she raised an eyebrow at Quinn lying in her bed biting her bottom lip and looking about ready to touch herself.
Quinn was snapped out of her thoughts, and innocently told Brittany she loved her.
Brittany smiled a huge smile. "I love you too. Now put some clothes on, so we can go have lunch after we pick up Hannah." she said, while throwing some underwear at Quinn.
At lunch. (McDonalds)
"You two look different." Hannah said as she sat across her older sister and Quinn.
The two exchanged looks, before laughing out loud at the fact that Hannah was very observant.
"You look the same." Brittany teased her little sister.
"No really, like, you look happier or something. Oh I know…you're both like "glowing". WAIT, did you guys…"
"HANNAH! You're 7 years old…you're not supposed to know about sex." Brittany firmly stated, as Quinn just sat there turning red, embarrassed that they were having this conversation with a 7 year old.
"EWWW…GROSS. I'm telling Mom & Dad. I was just going to ask if you went to Disney World last night. Geez. It's the happiest place on Earth, and you guys look really happy. I didn't even know that two girls could…"
Quinn coughed loudly interrupting Brittany's little sister. "So um Hannah...how's school?"
"Don't tell mom and dad! If you do, they might not let Quinnie the Pooh stay with us anymore. You don't want that do you?" Brittany pleaded.
Hannah gasped. "NO! I don't want Quinn to go away. She makes you smile a lot. I like her."
Quinn sat there awkwardly, but couldn't help but giggle at the two sisters.
As they were sitting in a booth, just laughing and talking away, Santana walked through the doors, immediately spotting them and heading over to greet Brittany.
"Hey B and Little B." Santana greeted Brittany and Hannah. "B-word" Santana acknowledged Quinn with a slight nod.
"San…" Brittany sighed while Quinn rolled her eyes before giving her fakest smile to the Latina.
"Brit…" Santana simply smirked.
"Santana! Where ya been?" Hannah asked wide eyed.
"Little B, where have you been?" Santana softened to the little girl she was sitting next to.
"I went to a sleepover last night. It was so fun. We watched movies and ate snacks and made bracelets and everything! It was so fun!" Hannah was excited to tell everyone about her sleepover.
"Awww, that sounds fun. I remember when B and I were younger; we had so much fun at our sleepovers." Santana flashed a smile over to Brittany.
"OH yeah…I remember last year, you two had a sleepover when mom and dad were out of town. Remember? You said it was a big kid sleepover and I wasn't allowed but I heard how much fun you two were having. You guys kept screaming!" Hannah exclaimed.
Brittany shook her head, smiling, realizing what Hannah was referring to. Santana nervously smiled and shrugged. And Quinn, of course felt the insecurities she had about her relationship with Brittany flood back in.
"Um, I'm gonna go order something. Mind if I join?" Santana questioned Brittany with a smile.
"Nope, go right ahead." Brittany returned the smile.
"Hannah, you want a vanilla ice cream cone?" Santana asked the giddy little girl.
"Ooo, yes, please!"
"How about you two?" Santana offered both Quinn and Brittany, which surprised them. Brittany immediately responded with a yes, while Quinn hesitated before accepting the offer.
Santana came back and ate her food in front of the three girls as Hannah continued to talk about her sleepover. She made sure she seemed like she was listening to the little girl by smiling and nodding and giggling when appropriate, but really, she was paying attention to Brittany and Quinn and the way they kept exchanging looks.
"No offense but you guys are kind of boring, can I go play in the playplace?" Hannah eagerly asked.
"Yeah, go ahead...but be careful. Make sure we can see you, okay?" Brittany gave her little sister permission.
As Hannah left to play, the three were left alone for another awkward situation. Quinn avoided any eye contact with Santana, as she tried to look occupied with her phone. Santana was about to come up with a snarky comment for Quinn, but when her eyes met Brittany's, she stopped herself, for Brittany's sake.
"So B, did you get my text last night?" Santana asked Brittany before taking a quick glance at Quinn, noticing the blonde tense a bit. This pregnant chick is crazy Santana thought.
"Oh I saw it when I woke up. Sorry…" Brittany replied simply before licking her ice cream cone.
"Sorry for what?" Santana raised an eyebrow.
"I don't know…"
"So what are you doing today?"
"I don't know…" Brittany didn't mean to sound uninterested, but she really had no idea. She just planned to catch up on homework and Quinn.
"Hey tubs, do you mind if I steal Brittany from you today?" Santana looked to Quinn, trying to push her buttons.
"What? Why?" Quinn's head popped up to find Santana looking at her with a questioning look, and she regretted sounding so possessive over Brittany. Quinn didn't want to show Santana that she was obviously smitten by the other blonde. "I mean…I don't care…no offense B." Quinn did care and Brittany found it adorable.
Ignoring the blonde's sudden outburst, Santana looked back to Brittany.
"B, you have…" Quinn heard Santana say before she witnessed the Latina raise her hand and brush her fingers across Brittany's cheek to wipe some ice cream off, lingering for a few seconds.
"Oh thanks." Brittany bit her lip and blushed, embarrassed of her messy eating habits with ice cream.
"No problem, B…" Santana smiled her genuine smile, amused with Brittany. She missed these moments she had with Brittany; moments where it felt just like the two of them were there. Santana thought that Quinn's presence was starting to get extremely annoying. Sure, they used to all hang out together, but things changed.
Santana's thoughts were cut off by the sight of Brittany quickly turning to face Quinn and the ringing of her cell phone. Santana picked up her phone call from her mom as she watched Brittany smile at a nervous looking Quinn.
"Apparently, I have to get home. My mom is having a bitch fit because I didn't come home last night." Santana said after getting off the phone with her mom.
"Oh, I thought you left Finn after?" Brittany asked curiously, forgetting that Quinn had no idea what had gone on between Santana & Finn the night before.
"I did, after he bought me a burger. Then I ended up at Puck's, which isn't really where I wanted to end up." Santana winked and implied that she wanted to end up with Brittany last night.
"Okay, bye Santana. Drive safely." Quinn couldn't think of anything clever to say but she just wanted to say something before anyone else replied or continued to talk.
"Yeah, whatever. Bye Brit. Loves you." Santana said before walking towards the playplace to say bye to the mini blonde.
Quinn let doubts fill her mind again, as she sat there silently. "How long am I going to have to compete with her? Does Santana love Brittany? Would Brittany choose her over me?"She thought.
"Don't worry about S, Quinnie the Pooh. She gets moody a lot. It's funny cause you're the pregnant one and you're perfectly fine. I mean, you get kinda moody, but it isn't as bad as her." Brittany said as if she read Quinn's mind.
"Let's go home so I can tell you that I love you and other stuff." Brittany said as she got out of the booth getting ready to grab Hannah so they could leave.
"I love you, Brittany." Quinn said simply, as she was reminded of the night before.
