Santana carried Julianna upstairs. Finn was carrying Hayden. They placed both weary babies into their cribs.
"Be prepared for lack of sleep," Finn warned. Santana kissed Finn carefully. Or at least, it started careful. But it was already hard enough to resist Finn and now she didn't have a baby bump in the way. When Santana finally pulled away, she felt as if she had been standing there for years. They both had to stabilize themselves before walking off.
When Santana and Finn woke up in the morning, they were both apologizing and thanking Finn's mom. Every time one of the babies had cried, she had taken care of rocking it back to sleep. She insisted that she wanted to, but both Santana and Finn felt guilt eating them, these were their children!
"It's Saturday, we can do whatever we want," Finn said, his whisper tickling Santana's ear.
"Right, as soon as we feed the two babies," Santana said. She had talked to the doctor and they had decided that she wouldn't breastfeed. It made it easier for when Emma would be watching over them. When the babies were fed and were in their parents' arms…Finn and Santana sat next to each other on the couch.
"Let's practice for Glee," Finn said. Santana nodded and smiled somewhat impishly. She leaned in and kissed him again. It lingered more than either had intended. His finger grazed her cheekbone softly. Finn stretched out his hand and touched his stomach.
"You know their not in there anymore," Santana murmured teasingly. Finn nodded, bumping his nose against hers.
"I'm not reaching out to touch them," Finn said and his voice was, once again, oddly growl-like. Santana felt a rush of joy wash over her.
"You better not be," she said and leaned in again, but there was a knock at the door before their lips could meet again. Finn got up and answered it, shifting Julianna's weight.
"Oh, hey Rachel, come on in," Finn said and led her in. Santana almost growled at the little home wrecker.
"Hey, Rachel," Santana said icily, though Finn didn't notice. Rachel didn't coo over the babies or congratulate Santana. Finn sat back down next to Santana.
"So, what's up?" Finn asked. His gaze shifted to Santana, who looked at him 'innocently'. She bit her lower lip and let her gaze slowly and deliberately trail down his face and body and then flicked her gaze back up to his lips. His head was moving towards hers without thinking. Santana's eyes fluttered unintentionally. Finn lost all control. Without thinking twice, and forgetting that Rachel was rambling on about herself, he leaned in and kissed Santana hungrily. Santana smiled into the kiss. She even laughed a little. When they pulled away, both of them were giggling and heat colored their cheeks. Rachel had faltered but she picked right back up once Finn's lips were able to respond.
"Look, Rache," Finn started, Santana going furious at the pet name, "It was great seeing you, but as you can see, Santana and I have our hands literally full and we need to practice for glee, we were…uh…practicing right as you got here," Finn said and Santana stifled a laugh. Rachel nodded.
"Well, I'll see you guys Monday," she said and left. Carole came home and practically begged to take the twins off of their hands. They obliged. They had some distractions, but they eventually got through Glee practice.
"San, we're a family," Finn said with realization. Santana looked at him in awe.
"You're…you're right," she said with seriousness. He smiled his crooked grin and Santana smiled back. She couldn't contain herself and she pulled him into yet another kiss.
"Damn it, San, you are going to break me before I get to college," Finn mumbled whenever he could find a place to speak. Santana shook her head.
"I'll be cautious, you already got me pregnant once," she said before climbing into his lap. He held her close and tangled his hands through her hair. He sighed in defeat.
"What the hell, it's just kissing," he said and lifted her chin. She smiled triumphantly before pulling his head down.
