I am so sorry I noticed my mistake, San is doing a movie about Dionne not about Tina.
''Damn the both of you went all out.'' Abi breaths out as she walks up to her sister and sister in law with her wife, Santana hums sliding two glasses of the mocktail her wife mixed over to two of Ash's teammates and turns to look at her sister.
''She only turns eighteen once and she didn't have a real birthday party until today.'' She breaths out. ''We want to show her how us Lopez's throw birthday parties and she deserves a big one.''
''From the looks of it, she is enjoying it.'' Liv breaths out as they watch the group of teens joke and swim around in the pool, Brittany hums in agreement placing four glasses filled with a colorful liquid.
''She does and we are glad she does.'' She breaths out.
''What is this Britt-Britt?'' Santana asks curiously as she looks at the beautiful colored drink, Brittany just smirks taking a sip of her drink and wiggles her eyebrows.
''A sex on the brain cocktail.''
''Very fitting.'' Liv laughs out as she holds up her glass, Santana shakes her head as Abi just rolls her eyes and chuckles as she watches her wife and Liv clink their glasses together.
''Idiots.'' She breaths out after taking a sip of her own drink, she smiles as she hears the teens laugh loudly and glances at her wife. ''I think Nic and Ash will sleep in tomorrow.''
''For sure.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''And our Angels won't stay awake for much longer either.'' She adds with a grin as she watches every teen currently roaming around the backyard include their little boys in several games.
Santana hums in agreement snapping a picture of their kids as she sees Ashlynn and Nicolas pick them up so they can grab a cupcake and leans against her wife's side with a loving smile, she closes her eyes as she feels her soft warm lips against her temple and sighs softly. ''I absolutely love the smile we all manage to make appear.''
''I do too.'' Brittany whispers with a grin as they all watch the teens eat, dance and joke around. She turns her head to look at Quinn who found joy in talking to one of the other parents that joined them that day and softly nudges her wife and Liv. ''Look who is grinning brightly again.''
''And look who is enjoying it.'' Abi adds softly as she notices Beth watching her mother with a loving grin. ''Did anyone hear something from him again?''
''He tried to call me once or twice but I didn't pick up.'' Brittany murmurs. ''Last I received was a text message two days ago.''
''And what did it say?'' Liv asks curiously as Santana just smiles sadly, Brittany sighs taking out her phone and hands it over after opening the text.
From Noah: Can we please talk, I know I fucked up but do you really pick two bitches over family? I need my sister god dammit and I know you need me!
To Noah: No we can't talk, yes you fucked up and that to a point where I say that I don't have a brother anymore. All I need is my family, Quinn and Beth included. You not only fucked up your relationship Noah, but you also had the audacity to not only insult them but also my family, my flesh and blood!
From Noah: Oh come on one of them is not your flesh and blood, that is just a kid Santana needed a parent for in case he misbehaved and you were the one fucked! Come on Blaze, it was always you and me!
To Noah: You can be so fucking glad that I don't know where your fucking ass stays right now, it was never just you and me, Noah. It was always you, me and Em, Em is sadly not under us anymore and we lost contact years ago! I am all for losing contact again after the shit you pulled off, so leave me and my family the fuck alone or you will regret it!
And for your information, every little thing you send me or anyone else will be saved continue harassing us and you will see why the fuck my parents regret keeping me and not fighting for Em!
''Holy fuck, are you okay?'' Liv asks in concern after she read all the messages with Abi, she raises an eyebrow as Brittany just hums and glances at Santana noticing her sad smile. ''Aight come with me.'' She yanks on her hand before she can shake her head and locks eyes with Santana. ''Be right back San.''
''Liv..'' Brittany yelps as she just yanks her into the house not noticing their wives just look at each other in amusement and sighs as Liv pulls her up the stairs to the attic. ''Olivia.''
''Brittany.'' Olivia replies in the same tone. ''You are everything but fine, please talk to me.''
Brittany sighs dropping down on the love seat they moved upstairs and shrugs. ''It fucking hurts to hear him talk shit about our family, hell I would have killed him had he uttered that shit about Nic right in front of me.''
''Yeah he is trying to push your buttons to make that happen B.'' Liv breaths out with a sad smile. ''He knows what hurts you the most and uses it, as much as I would love to back you up to do it he wants to see you make that mistake so he can ruin your name.''
''You are more successful as he was, the only good publicity his studio received was whenever you, Ames, Press and Claire had a shooting with him or during the vow renewal.'' She adds as she crouches down in front of her, she rolls her eyes as she notices her smirk the second her knees crack and laughs. ''Shut the fuck up, yes I am getting old.''
Brittany laughs and leans forward to kiss her temple. ''I'm okay granny.'' She breaths out, she yelps as Liv hits her hard and laughs louder. ''Thank you though.''
''Yeah, yeah run you asshole.'' Liv growls as she tries to help her up after jumping up herself and shoots her a glare. ''Run!''
Brittany laughs sprinting down the stairs as she hears Liv jump up and jumps down the last three steps of the second stairs she ran down. ''Run and safe your butt!'' She laughs hearing Liv's yell the second she slides on her socks through the kitchen and jumps through the door opening into the backyard hearing Liv close behind her, she shoots her wife a wink as she just looks at her in amusement and sprints over to the teens.
''Keep the boys back?'' She asks locking eyes with Nic, she throws her phone over to Ash as he nods his head and dives into the pool.
''You really think that helps?'' Liv asks laughing diving after her after throwing her phone to her daughter and reaches out.
''Hell no.'' Brittany laughs out as she swiftly climbs back out of the pool and sprints away.
''What the hell happened?'' Abi asks laughing as she watches her wife chase Brittany around the backyard.
''She called me old because me knees cracked the second I crouched down.''
''But you are old mommy.'' Sophia laughs out, Brittany chuckles as Liv whines and grabs Sophia's hand mid run.
''Gotta flee now too kid.'' She laughs, Liv shakes her head skidding to a stop beside Nicolas and leans forward to catch her breath.
''I can't keep up with a former soccer player, Ash, Nic I will give the both of you twenty if you catch her.''
Ashlynn shakes her head and laughs. ''I won't take money to catch mom.''
Santana's jaw drops, quickly turning to her wife as she hears her yelp and covers her mouth to silence her laughter as she watches her laying spread out on a patch of grass with Sophia tucked into her knowing she softened Soph's fall.
She turns to Ash biting her lip as she watches her hide her blush against Nic's arm while he just tries to bite back his laughter and locks eyes with him, she winks as he just shoots her a loving grin the both of them knowing Ash sees them as her parents and turns back to her wife. ''You okay mi amor?''
Brittany nods her head slowly sitting up and locks eyes with Liv. ''Time out?'' She stands up pulling Soph with her the second she nodded her head and walks over to Ashlynn knowing her wife will join them, she hugs her from behind snickering as she squeaks the second her cold wet clothes hit her sun kissed skin and kisses her forehead. ''Talk without others listening in tonight?'' She asks softly knowing Ash normally doesn't blurt shit out like everyone else does, she rubs her back as she feels her nod her head and nuzzles her nose in her auburn locks. ''Enjoy your party honey, love you.''
''Love you both too.'' Ashlynn whispers as she hugs Santana the second she sandwiches her in a hug, Brittany kisses Nic's temple as he just looks at her with a grin and locks eyes with her wife.
''Tuck the boys in?'' Santana asks as they both notice Oli and QT cuddle with their grandparents, she kisses Nic's cheek as she hums and smiles. ''We will be right back.''
Four hours later
Brittany grunts as her wife, Ash and Nicolas suddenly collapse on top of her and laughs. ''Fucking hell, don't kill me.''
Ashlynn giggles and hugs her tightly, wrapping her other arm around Santana's waist. ''Thank you so much for today, I loved every single second of it.''
''Anytime sweetie.'' Santana breaths out as she kisses her temple. ''I am sure your friends are all powered out and ready to sleep.''
''For sure.'' Nicolas breaths out laughing. ''They all couldn't stop yawning and they couldn't stop talking about our awesome parents.'' He smiles slightly as his mami turns to him with an eyebrow raised and shrugs. ''The both of you are seen as Ash's parents too, the both of you did more the past year than those assholes seventeen years long mami.''
''That is why it was so easy to call you mom.'' Ash adds shyly. ''The both of you are my parents and I introduce you to others as such, I have no idea why it was so weird to say it.''
''Because those words leave a bad taste in your mouth.'' Brittany murmurs as she tugs her against her side sandwiching her between herself and Santana, she wraps her arm around Nicolas as he cuddles into her free side and kisses their heads. ''We are glad you feel like that though, San and I also introduce you as one of our kids.'' She breaths out.
''Yeah we always say our kids and not our boys and Ash.'' Santana muses. ''We did that since the beginning, you are a part of our crazy little family Ash and nothing will change that.''
''And everyone sees it like that.'' Brittany murmurs. ''You are one of the seven Lopez grandchildren and now online you are also known as part of the Lopez clan.''
''And I absolutely love it.'' Nicolas breaths out, Santana hums in agreement holding his hand on Ash's back and smiles.
''Do the both of you have something planned now?''
''Spend time with our parents.'' Ashlynn breaths out. ''Or do you have something planned?''
''Nah we can watch a movie, but before we start one, San and I have one last gift for you.''
Santana stands up as Ashlynn frowns in confusion and holds out her hand as Nic just smiles knowingly. ''Come on, we will show you.''
''Mom, mami the laptop and tablet for college were more than enough.'' Ashlynn protests as Brittany and Nicolas join them, Brittany just shushes her as they walk out of their family room and smiles as her wife leads the girl to the garage.
''No way.'' Ashlynn whispers as she watches Santana grab a key. ''Mom, ma..''
Santana shakes her head leading her into the garage and turns to her, she holds up the key and smiles. ''You paid for your drivers license yourself Ash and we all noticed how hard you work for your dreams, but we want to ease a bit of your worries.''
''We know you saved for a car but see this as your birthday and graduation gift sweetheart, you will graduate summa cum laude and will go to your dream college.'' Brittany continues. ''We know it's in the city but that you will still drive down and stay here, so this gift is for you to enjoy and for us to show you how insanely proud we are.''
''The both of you are crazy.'' Ashlynn whispers with tears in her eyes as she eyes the Mercedes AMG Cabriolet she saved hard for. ''Are you serious?''
''We are.'' Brittany breaths out, she smiles as Santana holds up the keys and winks. ''Test drive with Nic?''
''McD ice cream?'' Nicolas asks grinning, he laughs as they both nod their heads and kisses his girlfriends temple. ''Let's go, mi amor.''
''I fucking love you.'' Ashlynn breaths out as she hugs Brittany and Santana tightly. ''Thank you so much.''
Santana chuckles kissing her temple and smiles. ''We love you too sweetie and you're welcome.''
''Drive safe okay?'' Brittany asks as she kisses her forehead, she kisses Nic's temple and watches Ashlynn skip over to her car with a big bright grin. ''Life is looking up for her.'' She whispers as they both watch the teens drive off.
''For all of us.'' Santana murmurs, she turns to look at her wife and raises an eyebrow. ''Did the talk with Liv bring something?''
Brittany shrugs as they walk back into the house and sighs. ''A bit the talk with you this morning was better, I am just happy to see Q and Beth smile again after the divorce went through.''
''Yeah me too, I am also glad he received a restraining order and communication ban.'' Santana murmurs as they both drop down on the couch in the family room. ''I am also glad you decided to set one up for all of us, but we all know how hard it is for you Britt-Britt.''
''It is, I can't deny that.'' Brittany agrees. ''But he expects that I drop everything I worked hard for in life to side with him, I was always family orientated and now that I have my own little family I have my focus on you and our children.''
''I can't and will never side with someone who cheated on his wife and someone who calls his own flesh and blood a bitch.'' She continues with a shake of her head. ''I may not have known Beth from the beginning, but ever since I met her she stole my heart just as fast as Nic did.''
''Babe you met her when she was three, she is thirteen now.'' Santana murmurs. ''During the most important periods in her life you were there and you were there to catch her and pull her back up after the shit Puck pulled off.''
''You don't even know how big of an impact you made on all the kids lives Britt-Britt.'' She continues with a slight grin. ''Beth and Soph are both leaning towards being a cook and absolutely love cooking with you, Nic, Ash and QT absolutely love playing soccer and soak up whatever you teach them.''
''And Oli loves singing, playing piano and act with you love.'' Brittany breaths out. ''We all made an impact on the kids and I am glad they found their interests so early, I am also insanely grateful that Nic found his forever and I hope nobody manages to place themselves between them.''
''You know we will all make sure that won't happen, I am just curious to see what they decide to do as soon as Nic enters college.'' Santana murmurs. ''I am sure they want to move together, but finding an apartment around the city will be hard as fuck.''
''I might have an idea, I wanted to run it by you as soon as the time neared but now that you started this topic.'' Brittany breaths out, she turns to her wife, grinning slightly as she just raises an eyebrow and shrugs. ''We have a huge property, what if we split our backyard and build a two bedroom house for them?''
''Are you serious?'' Santana asks in surprise, Brittany nods her head and chuckles.
''Babe you know that our backyard goes beyond the fence we build, we can extend it a bit or we can remove the shed, soccer field and fire pit and build it there.''
''And who will build it?''
''We can offer it Ash and Nic as soon as Nic receives his scholarship offer and decide together, they can decide with us.''
''Babe that will be too much..''
''I know but we both have a saving account for them.'' Brittany points out effectively cutting them off. ''They can both chip in, but we both know Nic would love the idea to stay near to us and his little brothers.''
''Yeah and Ash will too.'' Santana agrees softly. ''But can we live without fire pit, soccer corner and shed?''
''Without shed yes, we can replace the soccer field behind that house and the fire pit a bit closer to the pool.''
''You have a design in mind, don't you?'' She laughs as Brittany sheepishly nods her head and pecks her lips. ''Did I ever tell you that I absolutely love your planning?''
''No and I would like that on paper please.'' Brittany breaths out laughing. ''A few years ago you always cursed me out whenever I planned shit.''
''A few years ago I was pretty dumb, now I notice that you plan to make sure we are all prepared and nothing can surprise us.'' Santana murmurs shrugging. ''Hell all the planning you did for our Angels, already searching schools, things available for hobbies and the safest car, bed and all other things.'' She lists up. ''It helped us raising our boys to be the amazing little guys they are now and you found the perfect middle and high school for Nic too.''
''We found those things babe.''
''Hell no, you listed those up and we picked one out together.'' Santana points out. ''You took the time in the middle of the night after massaging me to sleep, to search those out Britt-Britt.''
''It was fun to do so.'' Brittany breaths out chuckling. ''And I had you cuddled up in my arms, you know how much I love our nightly talks and cuddles.''
''I know, I love them just as much.'' Santana murmurs as she snuggles into her arms. ''It allows us some us time after our little loves went to bed and ever since we keep that up every night no matter how tired we are we somehow avoid discussions too.''
''Communication is the key.'' Brittany breaths out as she kisses her forehead. ''We talk and don't allow ourselves to bottle up our frustration anymore, but with each year passing less frustration enter our lives unless it's something so suddenly like the past few months.''
''Sadly it made us doubt our relationship and I fucking hate that.'' She continues through a soft sigh. ''Our relationship isn't like theirs, none of us is like Noah is and I just don't know why we went down that path with our thoughts.''
''That is sadly normal in a relationship babe, our best friends so to say broke up or well one of them was an asshole and allows his ex and his daughter to suffer under the consequences.'' Santana breaths out with a sad smile. ''But we both talked and that for hours, it just made us stronger like everything does.''
''That's true.'' Brittany whispers as she tugs her even closer, she dips her head as Santana just looks up with a grin and kisses her softly. ''I love you.''
''And I love you.'' Santana replies sweetly as she cups her cheek, she leans their foreheads together as sparkling blue orbs lock on her own and smiles as she gives her an Eskimo kiss.
''We are ba.. Shit sorry.''
They both turn their heads as they hear Ash's squeak and laugh. ''No problem kid.'' Brittany breaths out as they both sit up.
''No dirty on the couch.'' Nicolas exclaims laughing as he joins his girlfriend.
Santana nudges her wife and chuckles as she notices her teasing smirk. ''Shut up mi amor.'' She turns to the teens and smiles. ''What movie will we watch?'' She asks as she takes the ice cream they hold out for them.
''A horror movie?'' Nicolas asks grinning, Santana sucks in her lip as Brittany grumbles underneath her breath and nods her head knowing she will still watch it even though she hates them.
''Pick one.'' She breaths out with a slight grin, she glances at her wife as Nicolas immediately grabs the controller to the console they keep downstairs for streaming and holds up a blanket with an eyebrow raised.
She chuckles as she just nods her head, turning on her side and holds the blanket up. She smiles as Brittany immediately slides closer making sure they both can still eat their ice cream and kisses her temple, she smiles as Nicolas and Ashlynn cuddle up beside them and leans her chin on Brittany's shoulder as they both turn to the TV.
''Mami, mommy?'' Nicolas smiles as they immediately turn to look at him and bites his lip. ''Do you have time to do something fun this weekend?''
''After the premiere Friday si, what do you have in mind mijo?'' Santana asks grinning.
''Can we go camping? Our familia, Tia Q, Liv, Abi and Beth and Soph?''
''We already asked them, they don't have anything planned either aside from going to the premiere.'' Ash adds.
''Yeah sure we still have two tents, I can look around for a camping spot where we can all go.'' Brittany breaths out with a grin.
''Awesome!''
Santana chuckles placing her empty ice cream cup on the table beside them and wraps both of her arms around her wife, she kisses her temple as she feels her face nuzzle against her shoulder and turns to the movie chuckling as she notices that Nic picked Nightmare on the Elm street. ''Oh the flashbacks.'' She muses.
Brittany laughs softly and nods her head in agreement. ''We were quite obvious back then.''
''But in the end it all worked out.'' Santana whispers as she nuzzles her nose in soft blonde locks making sure the teens won't hear them. ''You know what's funny?''
''What?''
''Look at the time and date.'' Santana murmurs as she shows her, her phone. ''It's exactly eleven years ago that we sat on my couch and watched this movie.'' She laughs as Brittany looks up in surprise and pecks her lips. ''Told you that fate and our guardian angels have laid a hand.''
''They really did.'' Brittany agrees. ''I love you Santana Lopez.''
Santana smiles lovingly as she hears her fake thick Spanish accent and dips her head to kiss her softly. ''I love you too, Brittany Lopez.''
