Month 8
"You look really pretty?" "no I don't I look like a whale!" Santana exclaimed throwing her hands in the air, they were currently shopping for a dress to wear to her baby shower but where having no look, Santana was now wearing a loose white dress that went to her knees and the sleeves went to her elbows, "you look beautiful"
Brittany nodded hoping she wouldn't lash out... again. "I can honestly say I can't wait to be no longer pregnant I've hit the constantly uncomfortable zone" the latino whined getting into the car, "I know babe but not long now, less than four weeks maybe even earlier?" she hoped.
"Good morning!" Quinn squealed entering the dark room, she soon felt the force of someone throwing a pillow at her "hey" she placed her hands on her hips, "it's only eight on a Saturday morning let me sleep" Santana mumbled with her other pillow to her face, "we need to start setting up for the shower" she replied "no no no no no let me correct you, YOU GUYS need to start setting up for the shower" she snapped shoving Brittanys arm, "what?" the blonde mumbled rubbing her eyes, "Quinnie's here!"
she faked excitement before getting comfortable under the covers again. Brittany soon hauled herself out of bed and followed Quinn down the stairs, "how did you even get in here?" she asked incredulous "spare key" she said placing a fresh cup of coffee in front of her, "ok so we need to start in the garden..." Brittany soon zoned out as Quinn rambled, she dreamt about going back to sleep in her warm comfortable bed, she was shook out of her day dream when Quinn started snapping her fingers "hey wake up" she said, "oh look it's mean Quinn" Brittany muttered going towards the garden... "I heard that"
"This is how we do it" Brittany sang while blowing up balloons, she watched Quinn prance around the garden rearanging flowers and straightining table clothes, "morning" Santana said sarcastically as she stepped into the garden "you look so pretty" Brittany admired in aww, she was wearing the white dress with brown sandals and her hair was in a high bun on top of her head, "thanks" she replied looking towards the decor, she was shocked at how much they had done, there were round tables scattered throughout the garden which had pastel pink table cloths draped over them, and there were all the usuall stuff like balloons and food tables, "Quinn this place looks amazing" Santana piped up, "oh my god a compliment of Santana... I see the light" she joked, "you can repay when it's my turn in..." she thought for a moment "six months" she smiled.
"How are you by the way?" Brittany asked towards Quinn, "I'm good, well a reason why I was up at six this morning was because I was feeling a bit 'pukey' but I'm good" she reasured while tieing ribbons to the chairs, "have you told Puck and Beth?" the latino asked, "Puck's thrilled, we haven't told Beth yet we're waiting for the right time" she smiled "do you guys need anything?" it was weird that Santana was being nice they just put it down to her motherly instinct kicking in, "no we're good you go sit down" Brittany smiled still slightly creeped out.
Santana had to admit she was having a great time, she was the center of attention and sat quite happily while everyone ran around her, most of the women had arrived, there was: obviously the three women, Beth, Rachel, Shelby, Arabelle, Tina, Marley, their moms, and a few family friends and neighbours they were currently opening gifts, Santana sat next to her wife while everyone else sat around them, "aww this is so cute" Brittany said picking up a little onesie that had bunny rabbit ears, there was a chorus of giggles, they'd already opened most of the gifts there was pretty much one of everything. "Think we're done" Quinn said picking up wrapping paper of the table, "one more!" they heard some one shout from the back gate "MERCEDES!" Brittany screeched standing up to hug her, "let me take a look at you" she walked towards a sitting Santana and pulled her up by her arms, "you are one hot mama" she joked hugging her "you're not ment to be here till next week" the latino said, "early flight... couldn't miss my girls baby shower" she giggled turning around to face everyone else.
The shower was in full swing people had gone off in to their own conversations, "thank you" Santana whispered into her wifes ear "no problem anything for my two girls, and besides Quinn did most of it... you do know we're going to have to throw her a kickass shower when it's her turn" she giggled, "thanks Quinn" the latino looked over to her she was sitting next her daughter who was laughing about something, she nodded before going back to her conversation, "hey" Rachel walked over with Shelby in tow who was carrying Arabelle "hey" Santana greeted patting the chair beside her, "mama can I have another cookie?" Beth broke the quick silence, "well... how many have you had?" Shelby said smirking at the little girl "one!... two, maybe even three" she smiled cheekily causing all the women to laugh, "I think you know your answer"
Quinn interfered tickling her chin. "So how long till the baby now?" Beth looked towards Brittany "well she could come anytime now probably in about three weeks though" she explained, "I still think you should have a baby so I can have a brother or sister" the little girl suggested little did she know her wish had already come true, most of the women thought hard to not laugh at the cuteness of the moment, she was so innocent "what's so funny?" she looked around pulling a face, "nothing!" Quinn blurted out "why don't you go get yourself something to drink?" as soon as the little girl was out of sight Quinn had a small freak out "oh my god shut up!" she exclaimed which just made them laugh harder.
It had been a few hours and the men had started to show up, "baby girl" Finn cooed spinning his daughter around while everyone looked on "have a nice time?" he pulled her close, the toddler just nodded and smiled before pointing to Santana "bababababa" she babbled with a giggle, "that's right baba" he smiled kissing her nose, "hey munchkin" Puck high fived his daughter as he placed himself next to her so she sat between both her parents, "hey dad" she replied leaning into his shoulder, all neighbours had left so it was just the close friends in the circle "Bitee... Biteeeee" Arabelle sang from on Finn's knee, the blonde looked over "yah?" she smiled but the little girl just waved before leaning back into her dad making them laugh, "does she say anything else yet?" Shelby looked towards Rachel, "umm... getting there she says names and animal sounds but..." "mama" Rachel looked towards her daughter "ding" she clapped, "oh and she likes to sing" everyone smiled she was literally Rachel's doppleganger.
Arabelle had soon made her way over to Beth's knee and she was quite happily sitting playing with her long blonde hair, "oww Belle you're hurting me" the little girl squealed pulling her hand away from her head, "she doesn't mean to sweetie" Quinn assured fixing her hair "I know but it hurt" she replied, Quinn and Puck smiled to eachover before inching closer to the two children, everyone figured what was going on and had their eyes glued to the scene with large smiles spread across their face, "so you know before when you said you wanted a sibling?" Quinn said to her daughter who looked up to both her parents, "yah" she nodded with a curios look, "so if I said you're going to have a little brother or sister before Christmas what would you say?" Puck winked, then it happened...
Her face lit up as soon as she realised what they ment "AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" she squealed in delight, Belle just looked towards her with an incredulous look on her face, "oh my god" Beth jumped up and passed the toddler to Puck before practically jumping on Quinn, "you like?" Quinn smiled her signature smile "I love" her daughter said with a giggle, nobody could stop smiling at the adorable family moment, another baby another member to add to their family.
Santana did not look happy, it was only six in the morning and she sat at the kitchen table watching the sun rise "hey why are you awake?" the blonde wrapped her arms around her waist from behind "braxton fu... no swearing because of baby, braxton stupid hicks" she muttered with a miserable look on her face "I'm sorry I would take away all the pain if I could" the blonde soothed, the latino smiled at her nice gesture "well I'm awake now so why don't we go sort some of Eden's clothes out in her room" Brittany said pulling her wife up of the chair.
"Wow" Santana stood with her hands on her back stairing into the large white closet, "theres so much" Brittany added running her hand through the rainbow of minature tutus, "I didn't realise we had so many clothes and we only bought around ten percent of this stuff... and shes not even here yet" the blonde said in disbelief, "what's your favourite?" Santana asked her wife, "I love those animal print onesies we bought there so cute" she said in awe, "I agree but I do like the little dress Finn and Rachel got her" she giggled before lowering herself onto the rocking chair, "you ok?" the blonde swivelled on her heals, "yah..." she winced, "no you're not" Brittany lowered herself next to the latino "it's nothing Britt just she's kicking hard" the blonde placed her hand on her wifes stomach and rubbed soothing circles with her thumb "be nice to mama Eden" she smiled, "hey what are we going by?" Brittany just gave her an incredulous look "names?" "oh umm whatever?" the blonde replied "well mom or mama?" Santana asked, "well... I think you suit mama, don't know wether it's the puerto rican or just because you suit mama" Brittany giggled like a child, "so you're mommy... I like it" she placed her hand on top of her wifes before closing her eyes slightly and drifting of to sleep.
"Hows life?" Quinn said slumping herself onto the couch between the two women, "annoying" Santana mumbled trying to get comfortable, "the doctor said not long now" Brittany added with a smile, "my lower back is killing me" she whined, "I have felt your pain, though with Beth I was also rehearsing for show choir" Quinn giggled prodding at the latinos belly, "and how you did that I'll never know" Santana snapped in a sarcastic tone.
"Wheres Beth?" Brittany asked sitting up once the movie finished, "with Shelby this weekend" Quinn replied, Santana had not long fell asleep after the movie started,
"you miss her?" Brittany smiled "yah... but I needed a break she was killing me with all the baby stuff" she giggled, "hows Shelby taking it?" "Shelbys... Shelbys great, shes really supportive and happy for us" Quinn stumbled uneasy, "and?" Brittany raised her eyebrows "... I don't want her to feel like we're trying to take Beth away from her" Quinn admitted, the other blonde leaned in closer to her side and gave her a quick hug "she would never think that, she loves Beth and you guys" she reasurred, "you know if you ever quit dancing you would make a great shrink" Quinn giggled wiping away the single tear that left her eye.
Rachel had called the two women earlier on in the morning and asked if they could look after Arabelle for the afternoon but over at their house "Belle elle" Brittany cooed placing kisses all over her face, "Britt you're going to suffocate her" Santana looked up from her laptop on the couch, "you like it dont you Belle" the blonde said tickling the laughing childs stomach, "Sananana?" the toddler crawled over to the couch and tapped her leg "yah baby girl?" she replied sweetly, "play!" she squealed clapping her hands, "you want to play?" the latino closed her laptop and lowered herself onto the carpet, "what shall we play?" Brittany asked sitting the girl on her stretched out legs, Arabelle just shrugged and bit her lip "ino what's that Belle?" they found it quite amusing when she attempted to talk, her voice was so innocent and cute "kitty!" she exclaimed at the stuffed animal they couldn't help but giggle, "and that?" Brittany pointed to the table, "table" she said smiling proudly "you're so clever you said it properly" Brittany clapped the little girls hands together.
"Who's that?" Brittany had not long got out the photo albums from the book shelf, Ava sat on Santana's knee on the couch while her wife sat next to them, "mama" she replied, Brittany pointed to the next person "nana... Beth... kin" she said as she went along the line of people, the front door opened and Finn and Rachel followed, "hello" Rachel sang, "mama" the youngest girl held her arms up to be held "were you a good girl?" Rachel said holding her to her hip, "she was an angel" Brittany answered the question for her, "are you guys ok?" Santana piped up "yes we're good just looking at houses" Rachel said with her eyes on her daughter, "any particular reason?" the blonde asked as Finn sat beside them on the couch, "we want to expand the family over the next few years so we thought an actual house might be needed" Rachel giggled like an excited teenage girl "what do you think Belle? shall we buy a house?" the small bruenette pulled her daughter around to face her, "no" she replied with not much interest "we could get a doggy?" well that livened her up "house! doggy!" she squealed clapping her hands making them laugh.
"Hey preggers how yah doing?" Brittany's co-worker Stacey greeted as they entered the school, "good stace just a bit bored" the latino replied rubbing her bump, "well the older girls are rehearsing the west side story number, why don't you go watch? give some tips maybe" she replied from behing the large wooden desk, "I will" she said waving walking away, she opened the large doors to the dance studio, there were around twenty 16-17 yearold girls prancing and giggling, they all gasped as they saw the two familiar women enter "hey girls" the latino greeted with a wave, there was a chorus of 'hellos' in return, Santana visited the school whenever she got the time so she was friendly with the girls, "ok ladies lets run through it again" Brittany clapped her hands to get their attention, just as she did the same amount of boys entered the room who seemed to be around the same age the music started to 'America' and she had to admit they were all really good, the girl who sang Anita's part reminded her of herslef from when they did west side story in senior year, great memories.
She heard giggles as she turned the corner looking for her wife, she smiled at the scene before her, Santana was sitting at the piano with one of her students Lila whose only six years old, they were playing little parts of songs together and giggling at their sillieness "hey, am my interupting something?" Brittany said "no not at all, you were just showing me some of your skills weren't you Lila?" the little girl just nodded and smiled, "well sweetie I'm sorry to spoil the fun but your mommy's waiting in the hall" she explained, "oh... bye Miss Santana and you Eden" she leaned over and gave the latino a side hug before running towards Brittany with her little pink dance bag on her shoulders, "bye Miss Brittany" she gave her a gentle hug before scampering off through the doors, "shes so cute" Santana said watching her in awe, "you think shes cute, trying teaching a bunch of toddlers to play the guitar its adorable" Brittany said with a giggle sitting on the bench next to her wife, "I should come here more often" the latino smiled before kissing her wife, "we love having you here" she informed before kissing her back.
Kurt demanded he get the womens attention for a whole day before Eden arrives so he could take them shopping and spoil his adopted niece rotten with designer clothes, "Kurt you do know shes only going to stay this size for around three months" Santana said holding up the baby baker dress he'd just purchased, "yeah ino so for those months she'll look adorable!" he replied like an over excited child, "we may need another closet" the blonde mumbled making her wife giggle. "Giant rubber ducky!" Brittany squealed running towards the toy, "here we go" the latino mumbled at her wifes child like behaviour "aww San we have to get her this its so cute" she cooed prodding the bright yellow duck "it's a duck" Santana said with an incredulous look on her face "a really cute duck... every kid likes rubber ducks" "and where will we put it? our house has been transformed into babies-r-us!" Santana replied with a serious face "you know you want the giant rubber ducky" the blonde joked pulling a face, "no I-..." "you know you want the duck" she interfered, Santana just laughed at her playfullness "we don't need..." "ooh a giant rubber ducky!" both women burst into a fit of laughter after Kurt's innocence, if only he knew.
Santana's mom and dad where flying over from Lima and planned to stay till a couple weeks after the babies born, "hey Eden it's grandma" Mrs Lopez spoke into her daughters stomach, "I love the name Eden girls" she said sitting up straight, "why Eden though?" her father spoke up, "well her full name will be Eden Taylor Lopez-Peirce, and the first part means little delight which we thought was cute and it also means place of pleasure... she's our girl our home, our pleasure" Brittany replied with a face wide grin, "cliche" Santana giggled watching her parents tear up.
"You know Eden mama doesn't mind if you want to come a couple days early... no... ok then" Brittany giggled entering the nursery she had been listening to her wifes conversation with her unborn daughter for the past couple of minutes, "you've made such a nice home for her she doesn't want to come out" the blonde joked sitting on the arms of the rocking chair "I honestly can't wait till shes here" she gazed towards her wife "... and my back hurts" she added.
"DUE DATE!" Brittany squealed crossing the cirlced day of their calendar "... and yet still no baby" Santana did not look amused, she sat at the dining table taking a sip of water every now and then but her face looked like thunder, they heard the phone ring again and before Brittany could answer it the latino snatched it out of her hand, "still no baby!" she screeched "... woah whats up with you?" aah it was Blaine "I have had EIGHTEEN and yes I said EIGHTEEN phone calls this morning asking if I had give birth or at least gone into labour yet" she rambled, "I'm sorry you sound miserable" he felt sympathetic but also couldn't help giggle at her dramatics "well I'll tell Kurt still no baby" he added, "yeah ok" she said putting the phone down, she was in one of her 'Santana the bitch' moods.
"How about we try some of those tips the doctor gave us to make you go into labour?" Brittany suggested, "lets see them" the blonde passed her the list and she read aloud "lets see: hot/spicy food - ick, long walks - boring, castor oil - gross, sex- not in a billion years I am the size of shamoo!" the blonde couldn't help but laugh, "well this is going to be fun" she muttered leaving the room...
