''Kitty and Marley will hate me.'' Brittany breaths out as she wipes sweat off of her brow. ''I love the Spanish kitchen but it's a bitch to cook all of it.''
Maribel laughs leaning against the kitchen counter beside her and hums. ''It's not easy no but you will serve some outstanding dishes.''
''And with the way everything smells, it brings me back to my childhood home almost immediately.'' Julia breaths out. ''The meatballs and chicken smell just the same.''
''Let's hope it tastes a bit like that too.'' Brittany murmurs, she turns to look at them and smiles. ''Thank you so much for lending me those cookbooks, the recipes in them sound amazing.''
''You can cook whatever you want from it mija, just know that we will come by to taste.'' Maribel tells her with a grin as she reaches out to pat her hand, Brittany laughs and nods her head.
''Fine by me, it's a nice change to enjoy and not cook for once don't you think?'' She snickers as Maribel raises an eyebrow and shrugs. ''Well not today but whenever you come over.''
''True.'' Maribel breaths out chuckling, she smiles as she hears their family loud laughter filtering into the kitchen from the backyard and locks eyes with Brittany. ''The food will have to simmer for about an hour or more, you want to go over recipes with Marley and Kitty while we wait?''
Brittany nods her head following them out into the backyard and smiles lovingly as she hears the kids laugh and joke around in the pool after she build the slide up again, she walks over to the big table, kissing her wife's forehead as she walks past her and gently slaps the back of Kitty's head.
''Bitch.'' Kitty grumbles through a laugh as she rubs the back of her head, she shakes her head as Brittany just hugs Marley from behind rolling her eyes as she hears her wife's laughter and scoffs. ''Why does Marls receive the loving and I get the slaps?''
''Because she looooves me.'' Marley singsongs, Brittany snickers and shrugs.
''Maybe a bit.'' She laughs as she gasps dramatically and shoots her a wink. ''But yes I do love you more.''
''Why the hell do I put up with the both of you?'' Kitty asks scoffing as everyone around them snickers.
''Because you looooove us.''
''That was so creepy.'' Santana breaths out laughing as she watches her wife and Marley turn to Kitty with twin smirks, Brittany just chuckles as Kitty rolls her eyes and holds out a cook book for her.
''Careful with these they have a bit sentimental worth.'' She warns. ''Pick one recipe out that you want to prepare during the competition.'' She turns to Marley and holds out a tiny booklet. ''These contain all drinks with a bit of Spanish flair, we can put our own twist on it but maybe you find three and we will use three of our own.''
''We both search for one recipe right?'' Kitty asks, Brittany nods her head dropping in Santana's lap and snickers as she hears her soft grunt. She holds up another cookbook and winks.
''Yeah I will flip through this one, food will be done in about an hour and Press and Emslie will be here by then too.'' She kisses Santana's temple as Kitty just nods her head and flips open the cookbook in her hand, she turns to Santana as she hears her soft hum and raises an eyebrow. ''What is it?'' She asks in amusement.
''Spanish Flan.'' Santana breaths out tapping the recipe. ''Abuela always made that for us whenever we had a bad day or that week, it was always very soothing.''
''It definitely was.'' Abi agrees. ''God that bring back amazing memories.''
Brittany glances at the girls beside them, grabbing her phone as they just nod their heads and snaps a picture of the recipe. ''B how about Spanish rice instead of normal rice?'' Kitty asks, she takes her phone as she holds it out for her and snaps a picture of the recipe.
''Mami can we serve Gazpacho with breadsticks as an appetizer?'' Brittany asks turning to Maribel.
''Si you can you can also serve gazpacho and a cold tomato soup in case someone doesn't like other cold vegetables, add your amazing cheesy breadsticks and they will absolutely love it.''
''B, Sangria, Rebujito with fresh Lemon/Lime soda and Mezcal as drinks for the adults and three of our children mocktails?'' Marley asks, she holds out the recipe book for Brittany as she turns to her and chuckles as she immediately nods her head. ''Tasting tonight?''
''Fuck yes.'' Brittany murmurs chuckling, she snaps pictures of the recipes and turns to Kitty. ''Think we can make all of this happen in an hour and a half?''
''It will be stressful but we function well together.'' Kitty breaths out. ''This will be the first competition where we will break a sweat though.''
''You think?''
Kitty nods her head and laughs. ''We will need all hands on, the three of us will be busy until the buzzer sounds.''
''The both of you know that I will jump to wherever you need me.'' Marley murmurs with a shrug.
''We know Marls.'' Brittany breaths out reaching out to pat her hand. ''Will you use your magic on the drinks again?''
''I will but we need your magic on the chocolate colada mocktail though, nobody can activate that edible glow in the dark glitter like you can B.''
''It's all in the shaking.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''That stuff needs minutes of powerful shaking, I have no idea why we ever started with that crap.''
''Your son wanted it and you can't say no to him, well to them now and to you wife either.'' Kitty muses.
Brittany glances at the pool and hums. ''Yeah that makes sense.'' She turns back to Kitty as she hears her wife's loving chuckle and smirks. ''How about some adult Oreo's on top of the Flan?''
''You want to have them tipsy by the end of the night?'' Kitty asks laughing.
''Well no but Kathryn will be there again, she already loved them the day she made her surprise visit so why not add them?'' She stands up as Kitty just hums handing her, her phone so she can write down all the things they planned and smiles slightly.
''The two main courses will be done by now.'' She turns to her wife and smiles lovingly. ''Will you call the kids please?''
''We will help you B.'' Maribel breaths out standing up with her mother, Brittany nods her head walking into the kitchen after Emilio told them that he will grab drinks for all of them and hums softly as the delicious smell immediately hits her nostrils.
''Damn this smells amazing.'' She breaths out, she steps back so Maribel can check up on the food first and smiles as she just nods her head silently telling her that they can eat. ''Let's bring it out and enjoy dinner with our familia.''
Two hours later.
''Damn I think we found our recipes B.'' Kitty breaths out leaning back in her chair after they all ate the homemade Flan Julia made.
''We sure did.'' Marley agrees. ''That was delicious.''
Brittany hums in agreement and locks eyes with Maribel and Julia. ''Thank you both so much.'' She breaths out. ''If this brings in a win, I hope the both of you know that your name will land on the website too.''
Maribel chuckles and nods her head. ''You can do whatever you want mija, we will copy the recipes for you so you have them too.''
''Those are our familia recipes.'' Julia breaths out with a grin before Brittany can protest. ''You belong to our familia Britt, just don't publish them.''
''Never.'' Brittany breaths out. ''Nobody but the three of us will know them that day and I will keep them at home.'' She glances at her watch as the doorbell rings and turns to Amelia with an eyebrow raised. ''Do you know how the match ended?''
She stands up as she shakes her head and jogs into the house, she opens the front door and blinks in surprise as Press and Emslie stand in front of her with a little boy between them. ''Hey you two.''
''Hey.'' Claire breaths out happily as she steps over the threshold to hug her tightly, Press snickers as Brittany just hugs them with a confused look in her eyes and gently places her hand on the little boy's shoulder.
''Ethan?'' She crouches down as he looks up at her with a shy grin and points up at Brittany. ''We want you to meet your auntie Brittany.'' She looks up at Brittany, biting back a laugh as she watches her eyes widen comically and licks her lips. ''Britt please meet Ethan.''
''Our son.'' Claire adds the happiness clear in her voice.
Brittany quickly schools her features as the little boy looks up at her and crouches down, she holds out her hand and smiles kindly. ''It's nice to meet you Ethan.''
''Nice to meet you too auntie Brittany.'' Ethan replies shyly.
''Are you hungry?'' Brittany asks with a loving smile. ''We just finished having dinner but we can heat something up for the three of you.''
''We already ate.'' Claire breaths out with a sheepish grin. ''But Ethan would love to get to know your little boys.''
Brittany nods her head standing back up and mentions her hand to the kitchen. ''Everyone is outside.'' She breaths out, she locks eyes with Christen and raises an eyebrow.
''Let him play and we will explain.'' Press whispers as she hugs her again, Brittany just nods her head leading them out into the backyard and lifts four fingers up to her lips. She chuckles as everyone turns to her after she whistles loudly and turns to Press. ''You want to introduce him?''
She walks over to her wife as everyone focuses on the two ladies still standing near the kitchen entrance and slightly shakes her head as she looks up at her with an eyebrow raised. ''I didn't know either.'' She breaths out as Amelia also turns to her in surprise after Claire introduced Ethan, she watches Claire follow Ethan around so he can greet everyone and smiles as he stops right beside her wife after introducing Amelia and Tori as his aunts too.
''And this is your auntie Santana.'' Claire breaths out crouching down behind Ethan.
''Hey buddy.'' Santana greets holding out her hand. ''It's very nice to meet you.''
''Nice to meet you too auntie Sanny.'' Brittany smiles lovingly as she watches her wife just shoot him a loving wink and turns to the kids.
''Can you all go and play please?'' She locks eyes with the teens and chuckles. ''The both four you are not included in that request, but if you want to do something you can stand up too.''
''Ethan do you want to play hide and seek?'' She watches Oliver immediately run up to Ethan and smiles lovingly as he immediately nods his head, she turns to Nic and licks her lips.
''He doesn't know his way around yet, care to help him out a bit?''
''Not at all.'' Nicolas breaths out as he stands up with Ashlynn, Beth and Sophia. ''Teens will join in and Ash counts!''
''Why me?'' Ashlynn whines as everyone giggles, Brittany shakes her head with a chuckle and turns to Claire and Press as soon as they ran off to the playground part of the backyard.
''Good they are out of hearing range, what the fuck girls!'' She exclaims reaching out to hit Chris's arm.
''Babe.'' Santana scolds laughing, Press shakes her head and chuckles as she rubs her arm.
''It's okay San we already expected her outburst.'' She turns to Brittany and smiles slightly. ''Need one more hit or can we explain?''
Claire snickers as Brittany just raises an eyebrow and bites her lip. ''You already knew that we wanted to adopt but never found the right timing to do it right?'' She hums as everyone nod their heads and smiles slightly. ''Well the beginning of January we finally decided that we are ready to focus more on our private lives then our career lives and sat down talking about what we really wanted.''
''We both landed on the same topic, we both wanted to have a mini us.'' Chris continues softly. ''So we finally called that one phone number you searched out for us.''
''Which led us to Ethan.'' Claire murmurs as she plants her hands on Britt's shoulders, she glances at the little boy running around with the other kids and licks her lips. ''We both immediately fell in love with him the second we met, but it took months before the papers went through and we organized everything we needed for him to get the right education while we can still work.''
''We got the call during half time today and drove down after the match, that is the reason we show up so late but we didn't want to cancel hanging out with all of you.'' Press breaths out. ''Almost everyone we love is gathered around here so it's also a perfect way for him to get to know the patchwork family we created for all of our kids.''
''He was a foster kid ever since he was six months old.'' Claire whispers as they listen to the kids laughing loudly as Nicolas chases them with Ashlynn. ''We spend as much time as possible with him even though the papers didn't go through and managed to build a relationship up with him even before they told us we could take him home with us.''
''I am in no way trying to talk you out of this.'' Brittany starts. ''But the both of you are really sure that you can raise a little one and handle your stressful jobs?''
''We are but we do have to talk to you about something.'' Christen whispers with a shy grin, Brittany just cocks her head and raises an eyebrow.
''About?''
''How long are you tied to the little Angels?'' Claire asks carefully.
''I'm not tied at all.'' She replies in confusion not noticing Amelia just nudging Santana and smile excitedly. ''But I won't leave them, not as long as Nic is still a part of the team.''
''So until next year, where he will go to college?'' Chris asks, she runs a hand through her hair as Brittany just hums and licks her lips. ''Can we talk in private?''
Brittany nods her head feeling Santana slide up beside her before she can even turn around and glances at the group. ''We will be in the living room.''
''Ethan, sweetheart?'' Chris calls out. ''Claire and I will be in the living room with auntie B and San, please listen to auntie Ames and Nicolas okay?''
Brittany intertwines her hand with Santana's as she follows Claire and Chris into the house after Ethan nodded his head and sits down on the love seat. ''Why the hell are the both of you so secretive?''
''Chris and I received an offer we can't ignore B.'' Claire breaths out. ''An offer that we both dreamed of.''
''No way.'' Brittany breaths out with a proud grin as she notices the happiness also in Chris's eyes. ''They called you?!''
Chris nods her head and chuckles. ''Jill announced her final year and before the board could search for someone with enough knowledge, she recommended me with Claire as my assistant.''
''But that means you will travel a lot.'' Brittany breaths out.
''Yeah that is why we took more time to take care of Ethan's education, he will be home schooled and we found someone who will travel with us to teach him.'' Claire breaths out. ''We both couldn't say no the day we received the phone call, but you know what that means right?''
''That the Angels will need a new coach.'' Brittany breaths out.
''Exactly.'' Press murmurs. ''Natalie and Sue asked us who would be the best option in our eyes.''
''And your name was the first one that dropped during that meeting, not only out of mine and Chris's mouth but also out of Sue's and Nat's.'' Claire adds.
''Girls, I..''
''It's not that we want you to say yes immediately and it will happen next year.'' Chris continues before Brittany can object. ''We want you to think about it, Ames is fit enough to take over the little Angels, Sam still had the mini's and you will lead our girls so they will stay in the first division B.''
Brittany rubs her face after glancing at Santana noticing her already looking at her and sighs as Santana just tilts her head slightly knowing the decision is completely hers. ''When do you need my final answer?''
''By the end of this year.'' Claire breaths out. ''We need to give Jill our final answer by then, but we won't leave the girls hanging so take your time okay?''
''Focus on James Beard first.'' Chris breaths out. ''We know all of this comes as a shock but you are one of the biggest names known country wide not only as a former striker but also as a coach B, you not only led our team to the first division with us coaching them to keep their spot up there but you also led your son's team to numerous wins with everything you do.''
''We know you declined many offers world wide, you did as a player but you still do now as a coach and we know you want to coach Nic until he enters his college team so we told Jill that we will need the time to discuss it and that the three of us will decide together like we did with us taking this position and you entirely focusing on the little one's.''
Brittany slowly nods her head and sighs. ''Give me some time to wrap my head around all of this and discuss it with San okay?'' She asks softly, she stands up as they nod their heads and walks over to them. ''I am so fucking happy for the both of you though, happy you finally have your own little family and that the both of you received that one in a lifetime offer.''
''We wanted to tell you before but it's hard to find the time at the moment.'' Claire whispers as they hug her tightly.
''I know and it will be even more difficult with the both of you being away for months, but we will make the time to catch up and hang out.'' Brittany promises as she kisses their temple, she slowly pulls back and blows out a breath. ''You want to talk to Ames about it?''
''I will grab her.'' Claire breaths out. ''You go take a breather with San, we know you want to talk about it.''
''You know me so well.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling, she turns to Santana holding out her hand to help her stand up and leads her to the family room.
''What's running through your mind right now, mi amor?'' Santana asks curiously after she closed the door behind them.
''Too much.'' Brittany breaths out dropping down on the couch, she covers her face with her hands and groans. ''I never thought this offer would drop in my lap San.''
''Really?'' Santana asks in surprise as she crouches down in front of her. ''Babe it became clear to me and everyone around us that you would be the next best option to train the Angels after Chris and Claire would leave, even though you are coaching a junior team you reached an amount of success no one else coaching teens can write in their resume.''
''How many trophies did Nic bring home under your lead?'' Santana asks with an eyebrow raised as surprised blue orbs lock on her own. ''Too much to count.'' She adds before Brittany can count them up, she smiles slightly as she hums and squeezes her hands softly.
''You know how Chris and Claire work, hell most of the tactics they use are the ones you use for the boys B.'' She breaths out. ''We both know how many foreign clubs would love to have you lead them to the top but your heart is with the Angels and it will never stray that is why you declined all those offers no matter how big the name was.''
''And because our family is here and I didn't want to move away.'' Brittany whispers.
''That too.'' Santana agrees. ''But let's not focus on our family for one second, what would you have done had you gotten an offer from Arsenal or Manchester before we started dating?''
''Declined it because I not only promised Sue and Beiste but also Natalie to bring them up.'' Brittany breaths out.
''You signed your contract with the Angels almost ten years ago but you put so much more down than just your name Britt-Britt.'' Santana murmurs. ''You promised them loyalty and you are one of four that kept their promise and declined every other offer even if they promised a huge salary.''
''I know it's a lot to take in now and you need long to go through the pro's and contra's of what the change will bring.'' Santana continues softly as she keeps their eyes locked. ''But the boys and I will stand behind whatever decision you take mi amor, you have five months to let it run through your head so take that time and I will be right beside you and help you decide as soon as you are ready.''
''I know.'' Brittany murmurs as she tugs her closer by their intertwined hands, she drops her forehead against Santana's and smiles slightly. ''If I do take it, one thing is clear though.''
''And that is?'' Santana asks curiously.
''Sam will take over the little ones, not Ames.''
''Ames will follow you and be your assistant?'' Santana asks knowingly, Brittany hums softly and chuckles.
''Yeah her ass belongs in the dugout beside me, Sam knows how we run the little one's and her assistant can take over the mini's.'' She slowly pulls back and shrugs. ''The little one's and the mini's normally don't need an assistant, but after Ames ended her career I had to offer her te position and it was amazing during the time I took off to spend it at home with you and our boys.''
''It was yes.'' Santana agrees. ''But our Angels are turning seven soon and Little love is turning Seventeen.'' She continues. ''They will tell you the same thing I will tell you now Britt-Britt.''
She taps her head softly and locks eyes with her. ''Listen to your heart and do what makes you happy, because that will make us happy and we will handle the stress and the change in our schedules as the time comes.''
Brittany nods her head and smiles. ''I know.'' She whispers, she dips her head and kisses her softly. ''I needed this, thank you love.''
''I know you did.'' Santana murmurs as she slowly stands up, she tugs Brittany up with her and pulls her in a loving embrace. ''You don't even know how proud I am to watch your career grow more and more each time Britt-Britt.'' She whispers as she kisses her temple. ''You are still making a big impact on the soccer world and it's amazing to watch my wife's name on several websites exclaiming she was one of the best players and now one of the best coaches currently active.''
She chuckles as she feels her face heat up and lovingly nuzzles her nose against her ear. ''Te amo.''
''I love you too Santana.''
''Ready to enjoy the evening with our familia?'' Santana asks as they slowly pull back after a soft loving kiss, she intertwines their hands as she nods her head and leads her out of the family room. She walks through the kitchen to the door leading into the backyard as she notices the empty living room and chuckles as she hears the blasting music. ''Looks like Nic turned on the surround system.''
She walks out with a laugh as Brittany just hums in agreement and stops in her tracks as they watch their boys dance around with Ashlynn, the girls and Ethan. ''God that's adorable.'' She whispers as they watch Nicolas and Ashlynn slow dance with Sophia and the twins dance with Ethan and Beth.
''We raised three amazing young boys.'' Brittany whispers as she hugs her from behind. ''And we gained an amazing bonus child.'' She adds as she kisses her temple.
''We sure did.'' Santana agrees softly as she intertwines their hands on her stomach not noticing their family turning to look at them with loving smiles.
''Mami, mommy!'' Quinton and Oliver squeak out as soon as they notice their parents a few minutes later, Brittany chuckles catching Quinton as they sprint over and places her hand on Oliver's back as Santana settles him on her hip.
''Enjoying an impromptu familia dance night boys?'' She asks as she kisses the top of Quinton's head.
''Si!'' Oliver squeals out with a grin. ''Dance with us?''
''Please?'' Quinton adds cutely.
Brittany chuckles holding out her hand for Santana as The greatest love of all filters through the speakers and leads her out onto the makeshift dance floor as Sophia runs off to grab her parents and Beth runs off to cutely ask Quinn and Puck to join them.
Brittany twirls Santana around so she is facing her smiling as the twins cuddle between them as they slow dance and locks eyes with her as she hears her soft calm voice singing softly, she turns her head as Quinton nuzzles his face against her shoulder and holds her hand out for Nicolas and Ashlynn.
She smiles as they slowly walk over, curling her arm around Ash's waist as soon as she is near enough and smiles lovingly as Santana wraps her free arm around Nicolas. She kisses their temples as they just huddle closer to them, the four of them slowly swaying to the music as the twins cuddle contently between them and lock eyes as Santana's soft soothing voice easily matches the song.
''Will you sing this song too mami?'' Nicolas asks softly as they continue swaying, Santana nods her head and smiles.
''Yeah I will perform this one on stage in front of an audience in the movie.'' She murmurs.
''With a background?'' Ashlynn asks curiously, she smiles shyly as she turns to her in confusion and shrugs. ''The lyrics fit don't you think? You always call the boys and Nic your greatest love, maybe they can add pictures of them while you sing.''
''That idea is amazing.'' Brittany whispers, she locks eyes with her wife and winks. ''And it will show the emotions they want to see.'' She adds.
''I love that idea.'' Santana breaths out with a nod of agreement. ''I will talk to the producer but.'' She locks eyes with Ashlynn and winks. ''It won't only show pictures of our boys.''
''It will show our familia.'' She continues as Ashlynn raises an eyebrow. ''The six of us.''
''Our familia is awesome.'' Brittany laughs softly as Quinton's tired mumble causes all of them to look down at him and adjusts her hold, she kisses his head and rubs his back.
''We sure are Smiley.'' She agrees. ''And you are tired.'' She nuzzles her nose in his blonde spiky locks and chuckles. ''Stop fighting it darling, we can enjoy more familia time tomorrow.'' She promises.
''We will tuck them in.'' Maribel whispers as she walks over with Emilio, she gently takes Oliver from her daughter and kisses her temple. ''Chris and Claire placed Ethan down in the family room, I think you have a full house tonight.''
''The more the merrier.''
Santana laughs as the four of them reply in unison and shakes her head. ''Can we stop being so creepy?''
''No can do love.''
''We can't mami.''
''Don't think so.''
Brittany laughs as the three of them reply in unison once again and shakes her head. ''Let's dance.'' She just breaths out after they high fived, she locks eyes with Santana as I wanna dance with somebody filters through the speakers and smiles cheekily. ''May I have this dance Mrs Lopez?''
''Dance off!'' Nicolas exclaims with a smirk.
''You sure about that mijo?'' Santana asks chuckling as Brittany just turns to him with an eyebrow raised, she smirks as he just turns to them with a challenging grin while grabbing Ash's hand and glances at her wife. ''Babe?''
''You're on sweetheart.'' Brittany breaths out, she turns to the table and whistle. ''Yo Liv, hit rewind please.'' She twirls Santana out of her hold as soon as Liv restarted the song and locks eyes with her as she notices Nic move in the corner of her eye not noticing Sophia skip over with Abi to record them, she twirls Santana back in her arms as the beat picks up and rolls her hips as they lock eyes.
''God how long is it ago that we really danced?'' Santana asks as they keep up to the fast beat.
''Last real dance?'' Brittany asks softly. ''Our vow renewal, but we had some fun dances with our boys between.''
''We definitely need to dance more.'' Santana murmurs as Brittany twirls her back in her arms, she runs her hand down her front as she just hums in agreement and tilts her head back with a laugh as twirls her fast on the spot noticing Nic do the same with Ash.
She slides her hand up Brittany's toned arm as she feels it wrap around her waist from behind and turns her head as soon as she cupped the back of her neck, she tilts her chin up to peck her lips still moving to the beat and smiles against her lips as she hears the song come to an end.
''So who won?'' Nicolas asks chuckling.
''It's a tie, the four of you mostly moved in sync.'' Liv tells him in amusement. ''We sure know where you got your moves from Nic.''
''Well yeah they taught me this, but they can't line dance.'' Nicolas breaths out chuckling.
''You sure?'' Brittany asks him with an eyebrow raised.
''Well I can't.'' Santana breaths out laughing as Nicolas just shoots Liv a look silently telling her to search for a line dance song, she shakes her head catching the button up her wife throws in her direction leaving her in only a crop top and turns to their on. ''You know mommy loves challenges.'' She breaths out laughing as she notices his surprise.
''Oh you're on mommy.'' Nicolas breaths out laughing.
''I'm out too.'' Ashlynn breaths out with a shake of her head. ''The Lopez challenge is a bit too big for me.''
''I'm in tho.'' Sophia squeaks out sliding onto the dance floor after tying her hair up, Brittany points at her and chuckles.
''That is a good idea.'' She turns to Santana and winks. ''Babe do you have a hair tie for me?''
Santana chuckles as she catches the tie she shot in her direction and tilts her head as she moves her hips the second Shivers sounds through the speakers. ''What the hell?'' She asks in surprise as she watches her wife move gracefully to the music while tying her hair up, she turns to Ashlynn in surprise and shakes her head in amazement as she notices her also looking at the three on the dance floor in surprise.
''Hot.'' She just breaths out as she watches her wife move her hips after jumping on the spot, she blushes as Abi just turns to her with a knowing look and flips her off. ''Fuck off Hermana.''
''B do the wiggle!''
She turns to her wife as she hears Puck's amused voice and raises an eyebrow as she watches her sexy shoulder wiggle while he laughs loudly, she locks eyes with their son and laughs as she sees the surprise in his eyes. ''Never challenge your mommy to dance mijo.'' She tells him chuckling.
''Is there anything you can't do mommy?'' Nicolas asks chuckling as the music ends.
''I danced a lot with tio Puck and tia Em's when we were little.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''We tried every dance but Em's love line dance sweetheart, the only thing that is not really my kind of dance is tap.''
She chuckles as he just shakes his head and pats his back. ''Dancing is like playing soccer, I will never forget how it goes.''
''You think you can still play like you did B?'' Chris asks grinning, Brittany slowly nods her head and snickers.
''Maybe not with the amount of tricks I did, but I think I can still surprise the fuck out of opponents.''
''Getting too old for tricks?'' Kitty teases, she laughs as she just flips her off and shrugs. ''You are nearing mid thirties B.''
''And who is nearing forty?'' Brittany teases as they lock eyes, she bumps the soccer ball she threw in her direction up with her chest and kicks her right leg out balancing it between her foot and shin.
She quickly moves her leg behind her other as Nic tries to steal it and kicks it up, she shoulders it over them smirking as Ashlynn easily catches it before it hits Sophia and laughs as Nicolas just turns to her in surprise. ''What?''
''Phoenix still got it.'' Claire exclaims laughing.
''Snake, Ames and Dragon lost it?'' Brittany just asks, she chuckles as they shake their heads and winks. ''It's in our blood, soccer is like walking you never forget the skills most of them will just be a bit painful the older we get.''
''Why do the three of you go by the name Phoenix, Dragon and Snake while Ames is still Ames?'' Ashlynn asks curiously, Chris chuckles sliding up beside Brittany with Claire and lifts her shirt showing the girl the tattoo of a snake on her side.
''There is the triple danger goal celebration.'' Quinn breaths out laughing as Claire also lifts her shirt and Brittany just turns around to show of their tattoos.
Brittany just fist bumps the women beside her as they hear their old nickname and chuckles. ''Other teams hated playing against us after a while because we functioned without a word on the field, it took about a year and a half but after we managed to train wordlessly we also found each other blindly on the field.''
''Britt definitely managed to fuel our ambition and she managed to motivate everyone on the field to give everything, that what she did on the field is now handed onto the boys she coaches.'' Chris breaths out, she nods her head to Nicolas and chuckles. ''Ever since she started training Nicolas, we noticed more and more of her skills on the field again.''
''She infects everyone with her love for soccer.'' Claire muses. ''Nicolas already played but the second she started coaching him he went from being a rusher to thinking and rushing, QT is also kicking asses during the mini league and.'' She locks eyes with Ashlynn and chuckles. ''After you kicked her ass during our high school visit, you also joined the team right?''
''I did yes.'' Ashlynn breaths out. ''And it was the best decision after that amazing visit, I absolutely love my team and am sad that I will leave them soon but two of the girls will join me at Cal.''
''You will meet a lot of faces during your soccer time, people come and go but the ones that stay in your life and go through the good and the bad with you will turn into family very quickly.'' Chris tells her with a grin, she pats Brittany's back and smiles.
''Britt and Ames are our family, we started on the field as colleagues but after playing together for years they know more of us than our family members do.''
''Soccer isn't a hobby or career.'' Claire breaths out with a shrug. ''Soccer is life.''
''Not life.'' Amelia breaths out, she turns to Brittany and raises an eyebrow. ''What did you tell everyone during your farewell speech?''
Brittany wraps her arms around their shoulders, kissing their heads as they just cuddle close and chuckles. ''Soccer is finding friends, friends who spend every single day with you, friends that motivate you and friends that have your back at all times.''
''And it's true.'' She breaths out. ''I stopped playing three years ago but I know several ladies from Orlando and every single old Angel player will still have my back.''
''You know.'' Ashlynn breaths out. ''Natalie might be the grounder of the Angels, but the four of you are the face of the Angels.''
''Fifth Harmony even wrote a song for the four of them.'' Santana tells her chuckling.
''Yeah but they wrote it after they heard you cheer loudly for your girl, San.'' Claire points out laughing.
Brittany nods her head and chuckles. ''You went viral so damn oft with just cheering love, you are the face of the Angels too.''
''Do you all have old recordings of your matches?'' Ashlynn asks curiously. ''I would love to watch them.''
''I have the most important ones on disc.'' Brittany tells her with a grin. ''And some viral clips too.''
''Like?''
''Butt goal.'' Everyone but Claire exclaim laughing, Brittany laughs as Claire shoots her a glare and slaps her ass. She quickly pulls away laughing as she yelps and slides behind Santana.
''Yeah Claire scoring with her ass is on there too.''
''You scored with your ass?'' Ashlynn asks chuckling, Santana sucks in her lips as her wife and Chris double over laughing the second Claire shoots them a glare and turns to Ashlynn.
''After a free kick, one of the midfielders lobbed the ball over the wall and Chris passed it high to Brittany while sprinting into the penalty area to join Claire.'' She cuts herself off as Brittany muffles her sweet laughter against her shoulder the second Chris just slaps Claire's ass too and chuckles. ''They were all a bit pissed so Brittany used power in her kick trying to score from the middle line and the ball bounced into the goal after hitting Claire's ass.''
''I found it!'' Sophia exclaims laughing. ''Here Ash!''
Santana covers her mouth to muffle her laughter as she watches the teens lean against each other to watch the video and snickers as they double over laughing loudly, she turns to Claire and chuckles as she just shakes her head. ''You will never live that down Claire.''
''Just thinking back makes my ass hurt.'' Claire grumbles. ''Britt had a mean kick.''
''I think she still has that kick, have you seen her legs?'' Chris asks chuckling. ''Bitch didn't gain weight at all.''
''Working out.'' Brittany breaths out still laughing softly. ''I recommend picking that back up fat ass.'' She yelps as Chris immediately sprints towards her and turns on her heels sprinting away with a loud laugh, Santana watches them and shakes her head.
''Oh god, here they go again.'' She laughs out, she turns to the teens and chuckles. ''Whenever they are together you will see more of this, Chris and Claire don't have much free time on their hands but whenever they do and they are here you can bet your ass that one of them chases Britt.''
Ashlynn just laughs and watches the two women sprint around. ''They are hella fast thought.''
''Mommy is still holding back.'' Nicolas breaths out chuckling. ''She is way faster.''
''I know, her real speed comes out whenever someone challenges her.'' Ashlynn breaths out chuckling. ''I already lost twice because I challenged her.''
''Yeah she hates losing, always did.'' Puck breaths out chuckling, he turns to Santana and snickers. ''Your wife will be out cold the second her head hits the pillow.''
''She will crash the second she sits down, she woke up around six this morning because QT came into the room.'' She grunts as Brittany collides with her, turning her head to look at her as she hears her sweet laughter and shakes her head as she notices Chris crouching down to catch her breath. ''You really had to power her out?''
''She chased me.'' Brittany defends through deep breaths, she leans forward and chuckles. ''Fucking hell, can we keep the chasing for days I didn't eat so fucking much?''
''Talking about eating.'' Claire breaths out. ''When is the competition?''
''Saturday in two weeks, starting around three.'' Brittany breaths out.
''Chris, Ethan and I will be there too.'' Claire tells her with a grin. ''We don't have a training or match.''
Brittany just nods her head crouching down to catch her breath and turns her head, she laughs as she notices Chris laying on her back breathing deeply and shakes her head. ''Never again Snake.''
''We will see Phoenix.'' Chris forces out through deep breaths, she laughs as they lock eyes and blows out a breath. ''Damn.''
Santana just shakes her head in amusement and glances at the time. ''Alright ladies get your asses up, it's two in the morning and we have two matches to attend to tomorrow!'' She chuckles as they slowly scramble up and turns to Nicolas. ''Please pack your bag before you go to sleep, you too Ash.'' She turns to her wife as everyone slowly stands up to head to their respective rooms and holds out her hand. ''Come on mi amor, let's catch some sleep before you have to focus on kicking Chicago's butt.''
