Hey guys I am thinking of a good way to bring in Santana's parents but I am kind of stuck, do you all have any idea on how to lead them into Santana's life and should it happen now in the beginning of their relationship or rather a bit later?
Also would you all still like for me to continue? I have another story waiting to be published, I can also publish that one and delete/completely change the storyline of this one.
Mami, will you be Britty's girlfriend?
Santana turns on her heels to look at Brittany and licks her lips as she sees her standing slightly behind her with Diego on her hip the both of them holding onto a rectangle box, Brittany slowly opens it with Diego's help while keeping their eyes locked and smiles as he holds onto it so she had a hand free to sign.
Santana will you be my She runs her thumb down her cheek and moves her hand down holding her pointer finger up smiling as she feels Diego's little finger connect with her own. Girlfriend?
Santana immediately nods her head tears clear in her eyes and walks over to them gasping softly as she sees the beautiful necklace with their initials, she wraps her arms around the both of them and leans up on her tiptoes capturing Brittany's lips into a bruising kiss.
Brittany smiles keeping a tight hold on Diego and wraps her free arm around Santana's waist pulling her close, she smiles into the kiss as she feels Diego cuddle into them while his little arms come up to wrap around their shoulders and slowly pulls back leaning their foreheads together. ''Yes?'' She asks softly.
Santana slowly pulls back nodding her head once again and smiles brightly. ''Hell yes.'' She confirms. ''Of course I will be your girlfriend Britt-Britt!''
They both laugh softly as Diego fist bumps the air with a big bright smile and simultaneously kiss his head, Santana pulls back intertwining her hand with Brittany's on her sons back and smiles brightly. ''Best day ever.'' She murmurs gazing up into sparkling blue eyes.
Brittany smiles lovingly nuzzling their noses together and winks. ''It's getting a bit better, I think.'' She tells her as she pulls back, she places Diego down nodding her head as he asks her if he can go collect shells again and leads Santana back over to their blanket.
She sits down reaching for the bag she brought with her and opens it grabbing a small canvas and paint out of it, she nods her head to the sunset and locks eyes with Santana as she sees her eyebrows raise in confusion. ''The sun is about to really set in, maybe you can make a small sketch to savor the colors so you can use it on a bigger canvas as soon as we get home.''
Santana tilts her head smiling slightly and slowly shakes her head. ''You are something else you know that?'' She asks amazed, she slowly reaches out taking the paint and canvas and leans over to kiss her softly. ''I don't want to work during our date though.''
Brittany shrugs her shoulders and winks. ''Knowing you it won't take long, you are talented as hell San and I know the costumer will love your painting.'' She points at Diego skipping around behind her and smiles lovingly. ''I will play a bit with D, as soon as you finish we can grab dinner and eat it at home or at the restaurant whatever you would like.''
I rather eat it at home if that's okay. Santana tells her smiling nervously, Brittany nods her head and kisses her forehead.
I prefer eating dinner at home too, I also think D will crash right after because he hyped himself up the whole morning after I told him what I wanted to do and asked him to help me plan it.
He helped you plan it? Santana asks smiling lovingly, Brittany nods her head and smiles slightly.
Yeah it was his idea to spend our date at the beach and that he could write something with shells he collects, I just wrote down what he could write during his homework time and showed him the necklace I got for you.
Santana grabs the necklace hanging around her neck and runs her thumb over the pendant feeling the letters engraved into it. ''It's really beautiful Britt-Britt.'' She tells her smiling brightly.
I am glad you like it San. Brittany tells her with a loving smile, she slowly stands up after kissing her softly and taps the canvas while slightly nodding her head to the sunset. ''Go ahead beautiful, I will power D out.''
Santana chuckles nodding her head as she watches her sprint towards Diego and laughs as she sees his eyes widen with joy the second Brittany drops down in the sand beside him while tickling his side, she opens the paint grabbing one of the brushes and glances at the sunset dipping her brush in one of the colors she will use first.
Brittany glances at Santana as she lifts Diego over her head her heart bursting with love the second his sweet giggles fill her ears and smiles lovingly as she sees her slowly drifting into her own little world, she looks up at the little boy above her and places him on her hip ruffling his hair. What do you want to eat today D?
Diego tilts his head tapping his chin and shrugs. Whatever you and mami will eat B.
Brittany laughs softly dropping down in the sand once again and places him in her lap so he is facing her, she kisses his forehead and smiles lovingly. Nah you can choose today buddy, anything you really want to eat today?
Can we have pizza? Diego asks smiling cutely.
BBQ chicken with a Disney movie? Brittany asks smiling knowingly, she laughs as he immediately nods his head smiling brightly and nods her head. Sure we can, I will order our food so it will be delivered the second we come home okay?
Diego nods his head cuddling into her while facing sideways to look at the sunset and smiles happily. ''Te amo Britty.'' He whispers softly as he wraps his little arms around her shoulders leaning his forehead against the side of her neck. ''I am glad you are back home with me and mami.''
Brittany kisses the top of his head slowly pulling back so he can see her and smiles lovingly. I am glad to be back home with you and your mami too D. She takes out her phone as he cuddles back into her arms with a bright back smile and opens Instagram tapping his side softly, she chuckles as he looks up at her still contently cuddled into her chest and nods her head to her phone.
''Want to surprise your mami a bit more?'' She asks knowing Santana is fond of Insta and showing her paintings while she kind of dislikes posting about her life and such, she smiles as he nods his head and taps the option to add a new message.
She opens her gallery tapping the Album she made with pictures of herself with Santana and with Diego and scrolls down softly tapping Diego's hand silently telling him that he can pick out a picture too after she selected a picture of herself and Santana at the parade the both of them sharing a loving kiss not even noticing that Holly took a picture.
She smiles lovingly as he points at the picture of the both of them at the game where his face is hidden in Brittany's neck while Santana watches them in the background with a loving grin and nods her head allowing him to tap it, she scrolls a bit up stopping at the picture of their intertwined hands with Diego's on top and looks down at the little boy raising an eyebrow.
Diego giggles and nods his head. ''Si use that too B.'' Brittany smiles tapping the picture and exits her gallery, she taps the description field and bites her lip laughing softly as Diego immediately takes her phone and adds a few heart emojis.
She types out a message beneath the hearts chuckling as she sees Diego turn to her in shock and shoots him a winks.
La mejor foto que tengo, es aquella en la cuál sonrío por ti.
The both of you give me a reason to fight hard but to love harder, fight for my happiness and fight to get my normal life back. Before meeting you I would have never thought I would reach the things I have reached now but your constant support and gentle hand on my shoulder leading me out of the darkness makes me believe that I can make it, cuddling with your little boy and hearing his cute little giggles every time we spend time together no matter what we do overflows my heart with happiness and love for him.
The both of you complete me.
She adds the hashtag Girlfriend And posts it smiling lovingly as she looks down at Diego seeing the happiness in his eyes, she gently cups his cheek and kisses his forehead. I mean every word of it D, you and your mami make me the happiest I have ever been.
Diego smiles brightly standing up so he can hug her tightly and kisses her cheek. ''You make me and mami happy too Britty.'' He tells her softly, he turns his head to look over at his mami and giggles softly as he sees her looking down at her phone in surprise. ''She is reading it.''
Brittany laughs softly hearing the amusement in his voice and stands up placing him on her hip as Santana turns to look at her unshed tears clear in her eyes, she places D down chuckling as he immediately tackles his mami in a hug and looks down at the painting her eyes widening as she sees that Santana managed to use the exact same colors as the sky was. ''Holy shit.'' She whispers softly to herself.
She crouches down beside Santana reaching out to cup her cheek and smiles lovingly as she turns back to her after kissing her sons head, she mentions her hand at the painting and smiles brightly. That looks amazing beautiful, your talent keeps surprising me.
Santana bites her lip slowly lifting her phone and shakes it a bit. ''You keep surprising me.'' She tells her still a bit surprised. ''Really, on insta B?'' She continues softly. ''I know you hate social media, you didn't have to do this Britt-Britt.''
Brittany just shrugs her shoulders leaning over D to kiss her softly and smiles lovingly leaning their foreheads together making sure she can see her hands. I have a beautiful girlfriend and spend most of my days with her and her adorable little boy, I might dislike social media but I will love posting pictures of you and of D.
She smiles as Santana just surges forward to kiss her knowing she doesn't know how to reply and cups her cheek immediately replying to the passionate kiss knowing D is occupied with Santana's phone, she slowly pulls back as she feels her shiver and kisses her nose leaning back. I think it's time to go home and eat some dinner.
She stands up as Santana nods her head grabbing the brushes and the paint and shoves them back in her bag, she collects the shells Diego dropped on the blanket knowing he wants to take them home and gently shoves them into the side pocket making sure not to break any of them.
She helps Santana stand up quickly leaning down to gather up their blanket and intertwines their hands smiling as Diego cuddles in between the both of them wrapping his arms and legs around Santana's shoulders and waist, she slides closer so she can hold him up with her forearm and leads them back to the stairs.
Two hours later.
Brittany walks back into the living room after tucking Diego in and smiles as she sees Santana still work on the big canvas, she slowly wraps her arms around her waist from behind after tapping the flashlight laying beside her once to announce her presence and kisses the side of her head as she leans her full weight against her while washing the paintbrush in her hand.
''That was fast.'' Santana murmurs leaning her head back against her shoulder while looking into the mirror they places beside the easel so they can easily communicate, Brittany hums in agreement and smiles slightly glancing in the mirror to make sure she can read her lips.
''Yeah we powered him out, after his bath he only wanted to cuddle and didn't even request his picture good night book.''
''Thank you for tucking him in, I kinda wanted a head start on the painting so I can reach the deadline.'' Santana murmurs softly as she drops the paintbrush in her hand after drying it, she turns around in Brittany's hold and nuzzles her face underneath her chin still looking at the mirror smiling lovingly as she sees just how perfect they fit together.
Brittany just shakes her head placing both of her hands on the small of her back and draws small circles on them with a loving smile. ''You don't have to thank me for anything San and you also don't have to explain yourself, I love that you allow me to be such a big part in his life and I love going through his routine with him.''
Santana just smiles tilting her head up and kisses the underside of her jaw. ''Why are you so perfect?''
Brittany tilts her head down catching her lips in a soft loving kiss and smiles into it, she slowly pulls back and shrugs. ''I am far from perfect, but I will try the best I can to make you and D happy.''
''You being just you is enough to make us happy Britt-Britt.'' Santana murmurs with a loving smile as she cups her cheek, she runs her thumb over her cheekbone and bites her lip. ''For us you are perfect.'' She softly pats her cheek and leans up on her tiptoes to kiss her nose. ''Come on let's get ready for bed, I want to cuddle.''
''What about…''
Santana shakes her head effectively cutting her off and intertwines their fingers tugging on her hand, she leads her down the hall looking over her shoulder and winks. ''The painting can wait till tomorrow.'' She walks into her room grabbing the long shirt off of her desk chair and holds it out for Brittany so she can change into it.
She quickly strips out of her own clothes as Brittany disappears into the bathroom and changes into a tank top and shorts, she knocks on the door smiling as Brittany opens it while brushing her teeth and slides in beside her to brush her own teeth.
After they both finished getting ready for bed Santana follows Brittany out of the bathroom after grabbing the ointment she keeps beside the sink and crawls up the bed patting the spot in front of her silently telling Brittany to sit down, she smiles as she sits down in front of her and lifts the shirt she wears while opening the tube with one hand. ''It looks a bit better everyday.''
She murmurs softly glancing in the mirror, she runs her hands coated in ointment over the puckered skin smiling sadly as she sees Brittany still avoiding her eyes like she always does whenever she rubs her back and scoots closer so Brittany can feel her presence.
She closes the tube as soon as she finishes and places it on her nightstand grabbing one of the wet wipes she stores in the drawer, she cleans her hands throwing the wipe in the trashcan near the door and lowers Brittany shirt as she sees that her skin soaked the ointment up.
She wraps her arms around her waist from behind still gazing in the mirror and turns her head to kiss her temple softly. ''A scar shows everyone that you were stronger than whatever tried to hurt you Britt-Britt, you are beautiful just the way you are and it saddens me to see you so insecure every night.'' She slides her hand up her arm over her shoulder and cups her cheek, she turns her head so she can lock eyes with her and sighs softly as she sees the sadness and insecurity clear in her blue orbs.
She gently skims her hand over her back making sure not to touch it so the ointment can work and keeps their eyes locked as she cups the back of her neck. ''Knowing what you went through when you were little and also now, makes me so goddamn proud to call you my girlfriend. You are a fighter Britt-Britt and I know you don't always feel like it but you are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on and I will tell you that every day for the rest of my life just to make you see that.''
Brittany licks her lips sniffling softly as she sees nothing but the truth shining in Santana's warm brown orbs and gulps thickly, she drops her head on her shoulder not even trying to speak because she knows that she will start crying and wraps her arms around her waist to pull her close.
She slowly lays down as she feels Santana move them up the bed and immediately turns on her left side nuzzling her face back under Santana's chin closing her eyes as she feels the feeling of safety surrounding her the second she feels Santana's arms wrap around her shoulders.
Santana places her lips on her forehead running her hand through soft blonde locks and smiles against the skin as she feels Brittany's hand slide under her tank top feeling her fingers land right on top of her heart. ''One day you won't feel the need to feel that steady thump beneath your fingertips because you will know that I will never walk away, D and I are in for the long haul Britt-Britt. You ain't getting rid off us that easily.'' She murmurs softly as she feels her relax in her hold knowing she fell asleep almost immediately the second she feels safe. ''Good night preciosa.''

The best photograph I have, is the one in which I'm smiling because of you.
