A month and a half later.
''Fuuuuuck.'' Brittany winces as she feels Santana's nails break through the skin in her underarm and leans down to kiss her sweaty forehead, murmuring sweet nothing. ''Fifteen fucking hours, never again!''
She bites her tongue as she hears the nurses soft laughter, knowing she will face hell if she chuckles and hums softly. ''I think three are more than enough.'' She whispers softly as she places a cold wet towel on Santana's forehead, she turns her head as Stef walks in after knocking on the door and forces a smile. ''Please tell me she can get another shot.''
''We will take a look.'' Stef tells her as she drops down on the chair. ''How are you doing San?''
''I want to hold them, now.'' Santana grumbles tiredly. ''Please get them out of me.''
Brittany just watches her with a small sad smile, knowing how much she was hurting the past fifteen hours even with an epidural and lovingly runs her fingers through dark locks as she once again arches up with a yell as a contraction hits. ''We can hold them soon.'' She murmurs softly as she kisses her temple.
''Very soon.'' Stefania promises with a very thick Italian accent, she looks up and smiles. ''It's time to push on the next contraction, Santana.''
Brittany immediately stands up, pushing the chair she sat on the past fifteen hours aside from a few times leaving the room to inform their family and stands close against the bed as she feels Santana immediately grab her underarm.
She glances at the monitor knowing it will show the contractions and glances at Stef as she sees one coming, she nods her head as they lock eyes and turns to Santana. ''I'm not comfortable.'' Santana chokes out. ''Everything hurts.''
Brittany gulps thickly as she arches up with a loud scream right after and turns to Stef. ''Is there any other position that can ease her pain?'' She asks ignoring the pain in her underarm where Santana's nails break the skin every time she tightens her hold. ''She is hurting Stef.'' She breaths out as Stef also frowns eyeing the beeping monitors.
''Get me the birth chair.'' Stef orders, she walks around the bed gently placing her hand on Santana's bump as the nurses rush around them and locks eyes with Brittany. ''Can you help me lift her onto the chair? You can sit behind her, hold her and support her.''
Brittany nods her head watching the nurses roll the birthing chair beside the bed and glances at the monitor. ''Contraction coming.'' She warns, they both quickly let go of Santana's hands and she bites her lip as she hears her wife's pain filled scream. ''Can't she get something against the pain?''
''It's sadly too late.'' Stef breaths out as Santana drops back down on the bed. ''Okay we need to move quickly, as soon as Brittany and I lifted Santana, lower the bed and roll it away!'' She turns to Brittany and locks eyes with her. ''Ready?''
Brittany nods her head sliding her arm underneath Santana's neck and hooks the other under her knees. ''On three.'' She nods her head as Stef takes position and lifts her wife up as soon as they both counted down, she moves over to the chair the second the nurses pulled the bed back and carefully places Santana back down.
''Ah fuck!'' She closes her eyes in pain as Santana suddenly yells in her ear, feeling her nails dig in the back of her neck and slowly shakes her head as the nurses rush over to try and help her.
''I'm good.'' She reassures them, she rolls her head as Santana's hand drops from her neck and kisses her temple as she breaths out a tired apologize. ''It's okay love, is this position better?'' She asks softly as Stef tells Santana to lean onto the bar and place her legs into the stirrups, she carefully slides behind her as soon as she nodded her head and massages her back as soon as another contraction hits.
''Continue massaging her, it's helping.'' Stef tells her, she turns to Santana and gently runs her hands up her thighs. ''You are crowning honey, breathing technique and push hard on the next contraction.''
''Together mi amor.'' Santana croaks out, Brittany immediately hums and scoots closer sliding her left hand around her to cover her heart. She glances at the machine, kissing her shoulder as she notices another contraction coming and closes her eyes.
''Follow my lead.'' She murmurs softly, she inwardly sighs in relief as Santana doesn't yell as loudly as before the second contraction hits and plants her hand directly onto her heart feeling the thump against the palm of her hand. ''Just like that.'' She whispers soothingly. ''Just a bit more love.'' She continues as she notices her heart rate also calming down the second she started talking. ''We can hold our baby boys soon.''
''Push Santana!''
She runs her thumb over her naked chest making sure she won't touch her sensitive breast and swipes her dark locks away so she can nuzzle her nose into the crook of her neck. ''I am so fucking proud of you.'' She murmurs as she feels her grab her underarm of the hand placed on her chest, she ignores the pain shooting through her arm and locks eyes with Stef.
She slightly nods her head as she signs for her that it's time for the final push and licks her lips. ''One more push baby.'' She murmurs as she drops her head panting. ''Breath with me.''
She focuses on her calm breathing so Santana can follow her lead and firmly keeps her hand placed on her heart even though the nails digging in her underarm causes blood to seep through small wounds, she leans back as Santana drops back against her panting fast and kisses her temple.
''Well hello there little guy.'' She looks up as she hears Stef's soft greeting and licks her lips tears burning in her eyes as she watches her hold one of their baby boys. ''Mommy you want to..''
She nods her head taking the scissor one of the nurses holds out for her and cuts the umbilical cord another one holds out for her, she turns to Santana as they walk over to the area to clean him and gulps thickly. ''He looks so beautiful.'' She husks out her voice cracking as his first wail echoes around the room.
''And already very strong.'' One of the nurses informs them. ''From what I can tell, he is a beautiful mix.''
''I am so tired.'' Santana murmurs, Brittany glances at Stef watching her check up on their second baby boy and licks her lips as she watches her put on a new pair of gloves.
''You can lay down soon Santana.'' Stef promises. ''Your baby boys had the perfect position, it's time to push again.''
Brittany immediately leans Santana back over and massages her back again, she looks over at the nurses watching them wrap their baby boy in a tiny blue bundle and turns back to her wife as she hears her growl filled with pain.
''Britt-Britt?'' She immediately hums as she hears her soft pain filled, tired mumble and leans her chin on her shoulder.
''Yes baby?''
''Talk to me por favor, the pain was way less the second I heard your voice.''
Brittany hums glancing back at their baby boy and smiles lovingly. ''I can't wait to relax at home with you and our three boys.'' She whispers softly. ''To watch you once again be the amazing mami you are and care for our babies while also joking around with little love.'' She continues as another contraction hits.
She slides her hand back up her chest, once again planting it on her heart as she feels her tug on her hand and nuzzles her nose against her shoulder. ''I can't wait to see what our future holds for us, but with you and our three little boys it can only get better and better with each day following.''
''One last push Santana.''
''Just imagine the mischief Nic, double, trouble and I will act on.'' She whispers as she feels Santana's body tense, a sign that the next contraction is nearing. ''But as long as it makes you laugh, we will act like the biggest clowns you know.''
Santana giggles through the pain and drops her head back against her shoulder. ''You already are a clown and Nic is too.''
''And we will make sure double and trouble will be our doubles.'' Brittany promises with a soft snicker.
''Look at this adorable little guy.'' Stef coos, they both look up the second they hear her adoring voice and smile as they watch her holding their baby boy. ''Mommy?''
Brittany takes the clean pair of scissors, once again cutting the cord and hugs Santana from behind making sure to not put any pressure on her abdomen. ''I love you so fucking much, Santana.'' She murmurs softly as she tiredly leans back against her.
''I love you too, Britt-Britt.'' Santana whispers tiredly as she relaxes back against her, she looks over at the nurses as she hears both of their baby boys wail and licks her lips. ''Can I move over to the bed again.''
''Of course, we will help you again.'' Stef tells her as she joins them again, she locks eyes with Brittany once again picking Santana up after they counted down and carefully places her on the bed the nurse slid between them. ''Congratulations ladies.'' She breaths out with a grin. ''They are both gorgeous.'' She breaths out as two nurses walk over with a little blue bundle in their arms.
''They aren't really hungry yet, but snuggles are always possible right?'' One of the nurses breaths out with a grin, she places one of the little boys in Brittany's arms after she sat down beside Santana on the bed and smiles as she watches her immediately relax back while Santana holds the other baby boy. ''What are their names, so we can write them down.''
Brittany glances at Santana as they both hold their little boys and smiles lovingly as they lock eyes, Santana nods her head immediately understanding her silent message and turns to the nurse. ''This is Oliver Noah Lopez.'' She breaths out as she rubs her hand up the baby boy contently snuggled against her chest.
''And this is Quinton Emil Lopez.'' Brittany murmurs as she gently runs her hand up the back of the little bundle contently laying on her chest.
''Amazing names.'' Stef breaths out. ''Very Latin too.''
''They are true Lopez's.'' Brittany breaths out with a grin. ''Pray for me that they won't inherit their mami's full temper though.'' She smiles as they all laugh and turns to her wife. ''They are perfect.'' She whispers softly.
''They are.'' Santana agrees as she cuddles against her side, they both look down at their baby boys and gently run their fingers down their cheeks. Brittany chuckles softly as Quinton starts searching and shakes her head.
''Oh no, I can't feed you angel.'' She murmurs, she slides off of the bed after adjusting her hold on him and thanks the nurses softly as they help Santana scoot to the middle. She gently places him in Santana's arms after helping her unsnap the gown she wears and licks her lips with an adoring grin as they latch on after the nurses helped them.
She bites the inside of her cheek as she watches the look filled with love fill Santana's eyes as she looks down at their little boys and gulps thickly trying to push back her tears. ''Don't hide your emotions, Brittany.'' Stef whispers as she slides up beside her. ''Embrace everything you feel.''
Brittany nods her head and wipes under her eyes. ''I do.'' She whispers. ''Just tell someone that is used to hiding tears, that it's okay to show them now after years of controlling them.''
''That will happen the second you watch your three little angels grow up.'' Stef whispers as she pats her back. ''Talking about three Angels, you want to go and grab your son?''
''Will you stay with her?'' Brittany slides closer to the bed as she hears her soft hum and leans down to kiss Santana's forehead. ''I will grab Nic so he can meet his little brothers before the rest of the family barge in.''
She steps back as she nods her head knowing their little boys will be down with their feeding as soon as she returns back and walks out of the room, she rubs her face as she jogs down the hall ignoring several nurses warning her and slides over to the waiting room knocking on the door frame.
''They are here!'' She exclaims with a big grin as everyone jumps up noticing the kids, Emilio, Maribel and Julia also sitting around. She smiles as they all jump up with loud excited gasps and accepts the bear hug they pull her in.
''Congratulations B.'' Noah breaths out as he kisses her temple.
''Happy and healthy?'' Julia asks as she hugs her tightly.
''Ten fingers, ten toes and absolutely amazing.'' She breaths out. ''A bit small but not much, so they don't have to stay here for check up.''
She crouches down hugging the girls as they walk into her embrace, thanking them softly as they congratulate her and hugs Nicolas tightly as he steps into her embrace the second they lock eyes. ''Do you want to meet your little brothers first?'' She looks up at their family as he excitedly nods his head and smiles. ''I will ask one of the nurses to grab you after he met them.''
She stands up holding Nicolas's hand as they nod their heads and turns on her heels, she looks down at him as she leads him to the room and smiles slightly. ''They are very small and sleep a lot, but you can still hold them even though they sleep.''
She knocks on the door frame as he nods his head and slowly opens the door, she stays back as they walk in, releasing her hold on his hand and smiles lovingly as he gasps softly the second his eyes land on the two blue bundles cuddled up in his mami's arms.
''They are so tiny!'' She hums in agreement, sliding up behind him and picks him up so he can kneel on the bed.
''Try not to lean on mami's stomach.'' She murmurs softly, Santana smiles lovingly as he stays back and scoots over with Brittany's help.
''C'mere mi corazón.'' She kisses his head as he carefully crawls over, smiling as his eyes stay glued on the two babies contently napping on her chest and glances up at her wife.
''Sit against the pillow darling.'' Brittany breaths out as she stands beside him, she gently takes Oliver from Santana and looks at him.
''This is Oliver.'' She murmurs as she carefully places the baby in his arms, she shows him how to hold him correctly and glances at one of the nurses mouthing a quick thank you as she notices her holding the camera she borrowed from Puck.
''He is so little.'' Nicolas breaths out as he looks down at one of his little brothers. ''Hola Oli, I am Nic, your Hermano.'' He whispers gently running his finger down his chubby cheek.
Brittany and Santana both smile lovingly as Nicolas leans down to press a very gently kiss on Oliver's head knowing they told him not to kiss his lips and watch him cuddle with Oliver. ''You want to try and hold both?'' Santana asks softly.
Brittany chuckles as his eyes widen and slowly runs her hand through his dark locks. ''One is enough for now?'' She smiles as he slowly nods his head and hums. ''We will show you how you can hold both back at home.'' She gently takes Oliver out of his arms as he nods his head and places him back on Santana's chest, she takes Quinton from her, lovingly kissing the little boys forehead and places him in Nicolas's arms.
''And this is Quinton.''
''Hola little Q.'' Nicolas breaths out with a loving grin as he immediately holds him correctly. ''I am your Hermano, Nic.''
''So little and already the coolest nicknames.'' one of the nurses muses, Brittany laughs and nods her head.
''He picked their first names out, Santana and I both picked one of the second names.''
''They fit perfectly.'' Stef compliments. ''The five of you will be a gorgeous family, I am quite sure those icy blue orbs go strong.''
''I hope so.'' Santana breaths out chuckling. ''I absolutely love blue eyes.''
''Geez, I can't tell.'' Stef murmurs with an eye roll, she laughs as she shoots her a glare and shrugs. ''Your son has amazing blue eyes and you can drown in your wife's eyes, I am surprised you can say no to them.''
''It's very hard.'' Santana murmurs tiredly, Brittany laughs and leans over Nicolas to kiss the top of her head.
''Are you fit enough for the family or rather wait till tomorrow?''
''Nah let them come, if I fall asleep, they will go.'' Brittany nods her head and turns to one of the nurses.
''Could one of you go to them?''
''I will go.'' Stef offers with a smile. ''I have to do some paperwork, but I will be back later to check up on you and tomorrow morning to hand you the discharge papers.''
Brittany nods her head thanking her softly and sits down on the chair beside the bed. ''Mi amor?'' She looks up as she hears Santana's soft voice and stands up as she mentions her hand to Oliver contently cuddled against her chest. ''Take him baby.''
She walks around the bed making sure Nicolas is sitting comfortably and gently picks Oliver up after kissing Santana softly, she walks back to the chair so Santana can relax and sits down gently running her finger down Oliver's cheek. ''Aren't you adorable.'' She whispers not noticing Santana snapping a picture of her and Nicolas while they hold the baby boys, she leans back in the chair with a tired sigh allowing Oliver to nap on her chest and gently kisses the top of his head.
Santana looks up as she hears a soft knock on the door knowing Nicolas and Brittany are both too busy with looking down at the little boys and smiles as her mami peaks her head in, she giggles and nods her head. ''You can come in mami.''
