Chapter 73: Life Goes On
Brittany's POV
Sunday 9th February 2025*
I'm in the middle of having a wonderful dream as I lie asleep in bed when suddenly there's a loud bang jolting me away. I quickly sit up in bed to see what it is but there's nothing out of the ordinary that's happened in my bedroom. It's only when I'm looking around the room that I realise I'm in bed alone. My wife appears to be nowhere in sight which is weird because I thought she'd take the opportunity of a morning without the kids to be lying in bed longer.
I lie in bed for a few more minutes, wondering if I should get up and see where my wife is. I want to see her of course but this is a rare morning where I don't have to get up super early for the children so I'm also thinking maybe I should take advantage of that. Just as I'm about to put my foot out of the bed, the bedroom door opens and in walks Santana.
"Hey, I was just about to get out of bed and go to find you" I smile at Santana.
"No need because here I am" Santana smiles back.
"Where were you and what were you doing?" I ask curiously as Santana walks towards the bed.
"I was in the kitchen making this for you" Santana says as she holds out a tray. "It's breakfast in bed" she smiles at me.
"Oh…wow" I say in surprise.
"We didn't really get much of a chance to celebrate your birthday properly last week so this is a treat from me to you" Santana shrugs as she sits down next to me with the food.
"Thank you, babe" I smile.
"So, what do you think? Does it look good?" Santana asks me.
"The food looks amazing, yeah" I smile. "I hope it's for the two of us though because there's a lot of it and if I eat it all I will be severely overweight" I add.
"It is for the two of us but I did go a little overboard when I was making it so only eat what you can. If there are any leftovers then we can eat them another time" Santana replies.
"Ok" I smile.
"Shall we tuck in then" Santana says as she looks at me.
"Absolutely" I say and then we begin eating.
"So, did you have a nice sleep?" my wife asks me.
"Yeah, I had a great sleep. I forgot what it's like to have a full night's sleep now that we have three small children" I joke.
"I know what you mean" Santana laughs. "That must be the longest I have slept in a while and I feel so refreshed, I'm not gonna lie" she adds.
"Me too" I agree. "So, any plans for today?" I ask curiously, changing the subject.
"Not really, I thought we could have a little bit of time to ourselves before all the children come home" Santana says.
"Sounds good, we should make the most of our free time" I reply.
We spend the next while just hanging out together, eating and talking. We're not really talking about anything specific, it's just nice to have a conversation that doesn't revolve around babies and their schedules.
"Thank you for the food but I don't think I can eat another thing right now" I tell my wife.
"That's ok" Santana smiles at me.
"It was really amazing so thank you again" I say.
"You're welcome" Santana replies as she kisses my cheek.
"I suppose I should get out of bed now and go to the bathroom to brush my teeth" I say.
"Nah-ah, you're not leaving this bed" Santana shakes her head at me as she moves from her position to straddle my lap. "I have other ideas for you" she smirks at me as she rests her arms around my neck.
"If the ideas are what I really think then I'd like to at least brush my teeth" I say. I'd really like to freshen my breath especially after eating if my wife wants to kiss me.
"Fine, ok" Santana laughs. "Don't be long though" she points out.
"I won't" I smile before quickly hurrying to the bathroom.

Friday 21st February 2025*
Santana's sister is taking some photographs for us at work for some of our fashion lines so our plan is to head into work soon with the children for an hour or two. We wanted to oversee the photoshoots today and catch up on a few things anyway so going into work made sense. We're currently getting ourselves ready for the day and hopefully we'll be able to leave in the next fifteen minutes or so. The kids are all ready so I want to find my wife now and see if she's almost ready to go.
"Hey" I smile as I walk into the master bathroom.
"Hi" Santana smiles back at me from the mirror.
"What are you up to? Trimming your moustache?" I ask.
"Oh ha-ha, another joke about Santana having a moustache" Santana says feigning laughter.
"Only kidding" I say as I kiss Santana's cheek. "What are you doing anyway?" I ask curiously.
"Touching up my makeup before we go out" Santana replies.
"Cool" I nod.
"I'm almost ready though" she points out.
"That's good. The kids and I are ready to go so whenever you are, we can leave" I say.
"Ok" Santana smiles. "Why don't you go and get the kids into the car and everything and I'll be there in a few minutes" she adds.
"Sounds like a plan, I'll see you soon" I say before kissing my wife.
"Oh Britt, I just did my lipstick" Santana groans.
"I wanted to kiss my wife so sue me" I shrug.
"As much as I love it when you kiss me, I'm going to have to redo this now" she tells me.
"Don't panic, it won't take you long" I smile.

As soon as we get to work, we take the kids straight to our office with us. We're only going to be here for a few hours so there's no need to take them to daycare right now. It would just cause all sorts of problems if we did because by the time they would get settled and see their little friends, they'd need to leave again and that would upset them and their routine. It's best to just keep the kids with us today to avoid any issues especially when we won't be at work too long.
After catching up with a couple of things on her emails, Santana headed to the photoshoots to see how they were getting on while I remained in our office with the kids. The children played with some of their toys while I caught up with a few things on my laptop. Once Santana returned, she watched over the kids which allowed me to do some work that needed a bit more concentration than what I was doing earlier.
We're all doing what we need to do in our office when someone knocks at the door. They don't wait for a reply and instead walk right on in.
"Hi Carly" I reply to Santana's sister as she walks through the door.
"Brittany, Santana, can we talk?" Carly says to us, not really bothering with a greeting.
"Yes, of course we can" I smile.
"Yeah, what's going on. Is it about the photoshoots?" Santana asks.
"No, the photoshoots are all going great. We're just taking a short break right now so that's why I wanted to talk to the two of you" Carly replies.
"Ok, so what do you want to talk about?" Sanatana asks her sister.
"Something personal like my relationship" Carly tells us.
"Ok, go on" I nod for Carly to continue.
"I want to take the next step with Jess" Carly admits, taking a deep breath.
"Which is?" Santana asks for clarification.
"Marriage" Carly replies. "I want to propose to my girlfriend" she adds.
"That's great, Carly" I say excited as I go over and hug my sister-in-law.
"Yeah, that is really amazing news" Santana says as she too hugs her sister.
"Do you think she'll say yes or is it too soon?" Carly asks nervously.
"I think she'll definitely say yes" Santana replies.
"I do too" I say in agreement.
"Ok, that's good" Carly says relieved.
"So, how are you going to do it?" I ask excitedly.
"Not a clue so all ideas are welcomed" Carly replies.
"Maybe you could take her to dinner and then when you get home, Santana and I could have already been at your place and made the apartment all romantic and stuff" I suggest.
"Or you could actually do it at dinner in a restaurant. Like just as the dessert comes you could propose at the table" Santana says.
"Jess isn't really into a whole big public display so I wouldn't want her to be embarrassed or something in front of a whole restaurant of people" Carly replies.
"Yeah, I'm a bit like that myself. I prefer a more low-key setting" I nod in agreement.
"What about taking her to your old school?" Santana suggests.
"Yeah, you two met in school so how about taking her back there to the place you first met and proposing outside or something. Don't like go inside though because that would look suspicious, two adults walking into a school for little children and hanging around" I say.
"I mean we did meet as little children and have been best friends ever since but we didn't start dating until a lot later so I don't know if that would have the same impact to propose there" Carly admits.
"How about getting all romantic and proposing under the stars or something? You could take a walk one night and propose in a really romantic location or you could…"
"Uh…is everything ok in here?" Jessica asks confused as she walks into the office.
"Yeah of course" I smile.
"Are you sure?" Jessica asks.
"Yeah, everything is fine. Why wouldn't it be?" Santana asks.
"Because the three of you all went completely silent when I walked in" Jessica says.
"No were just talking and then heard someone walk in so we stopped talking. We didn't realise it was you that was walking in though. We thought it was someone else so we didn't want to keep talking" I explain.
"What was it you were talking about then if you didn't want someone to hear?" Jessica asks.
"Just some work stuff, no big deal" Santana shrugs. "So, what's going on? Did you need Brittany or I for something?" she asks.
"No, I was actually looking for Carly. I was told she was with you both" Jessica replies.
"Well, you've found her" I smile.
"Jess and I will leave you all to it" Carly says. "I'll talk to you both more later" she says looking at Santana and I.
"Ok, we'll catch up soon" Santana smiles. Jesscia and Carly then leave.
"Well, that's exciting. Your sister wants to get married" I smile at Santana.
"I know, I am so excited for her. I hope she proposes soon because I don't know how long I can sit on this news without wanting to celebrate" Santana says.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Saturday 1st March 2025*
Santana, the children and me are all spending the day together. We're not working so we're getting to spend some quality time all weekend with our children. We're currently in the grocery store getting some items but I'm hoping the next part of the day will be a bit more exciting and the kids can have some fun. I'm pushing the cart with Olivia strapped to me while Santana has the double stroller with the two boys sitting inside.
"Mommy?" Jaxon says getting my attention.
"Yeah, buddy?" I reply.
"Bored" Jaxon tells me.
"I know the grocery store is boring sweetie but we need to get some things so we can eat. We won't be long in here" I tell him.
"Play" Jaxon says as he frowns at me.
"Yes, I know you want to play but like I say, we need to be here right now. We really won't be long so please just be patient" I tell my son.
"He's turning into me because we all know I hate the grocery store" Santana laughs.
"Yeah, I 100% agree with you and blame you right now" I tease my wife.
"That's fine with me" Santana shrugs.
"Ok Jaxon, how about we go to the park once we're finished here and you can play?" I suggest to my son.
"Yeah" Jaxon says happily.
"That's only if you be a good boy right now and do as mommy and I say" Santana tells Jaxon.
"Ok" Jaxon nods.
"So, what do you feel like eating for dinner tonight?" I ask my wife as we continue shopping.
"I don't mind. I will happily eat whatever you want to make me" Santana smiles at me as she looks at me.
"Ok" I say looking back suspiciously.
"What?" Santana says confused.
"Are those my designer sunglasses perched on your head?" I ask.
"Might be" Santana shrugs.
"Did you take them from my car when we got here?" I ask.
"Yeah, I did. It's not as sunny in here obviously so they're on my head and not covering my eyes at the moment" my wife shrugs.
"I'm not sure how I feel about my expensive sunglasses on someone's head" I tease.
"Are you saying I have a big head and that I'm widening them?" Santana asks.
"No, I'm not saying your head is big but wearing them on the top of your head would widen them compared to wearing them properly for your eyes. Like my head would do the exact same if I wore them like that" I explain.
"You should be flattered I'm wearing something of yours because your taste can be quite questionable at times" Santana says.
"Well, I married you so how questionable was my taste then?" I smirk.
"Do you want me to take the sunglasses off?" Santana asks ignoring the comment.
"No, it's ok" I shake my head.
"Then what is all the fuss about then?" Santana laughs.
"Keep wearing them. I like it when you wear my things" I smile. "I was just merely wondering if they were mine" I add.
XXX
All of the children are in bed for the night so Santana and I are spending some quality time together. We're currently watching another episode of a TV show that we started binge watching last week. I have seen better TV shows but I'm not too bothered that it's a bit boring because as long as I get time to spend with Santana, nothing else matters. As soon as the current episode ends, I pause the TV for a second intending on getting Santana and I some refreshments.
"Do you want a glass of wine?" I ask my wife as I sit up from my lounged position on the couch.
"Yeah, why not" Santana smiles at me. "It's a Saturday night so if we can't go to the party then the party can come to us" she adds.
"We'll make our own party" I smile.
"That's right, a party for two" Santana says.
"Ok, I will be back in a few minutes" I say as I get off the couch and make my way to the kitchen. As soon as I have the refreshments, I take them to the living room and place them down on the table.
"So, are we ready for the next episode?" my wife asks as she lifts the blanket up for me to sit down next to her.
"Almost, I want to take a quick toilet break first and then I'm all yours" I smile.
"Ok" Santana smiles back. After a couple of minutes, I return.
"Ok, I'm back" I say as I walk to the couch and sit down next to Santana, covering myself with the blanket.
"Let's get started then" Santana says as she hits the play button on the remote control.
The first part of the episode wasn't too bad but now we're halfway through and the programme seems to be getting worse. It's so hard to keep track of who is dating who and who likes and dislikes each other.
"I've had colds that last longer than her relationships" Santana states.
"I know, right" I laugh in agreement.
"Honestly, her relationships barely last any left of time but she never seems to be single. She seems to go from one guy to the next continuously" Santana says.
"Rather her than me" I joke. "I am a one woman's woman" I smirk.
"That's right. I am more than enough for you" Santana smiles at me.
"Exactly" I say as I kiss my wife's cheek. "I'm just wondering though; do you ever wish we met before we did?" I ask Santana.
"Not really" Santana shakes her head. "Do you?" she asks me.
"No, I don't. If we met before we did then I don't think we'd be the people we are today" I admit.
"I agree with that. Things would not have worked out in the way they did" Santana nods.
"No, they really wouldn't have" I shake my head.

Sunday 9th March 2025*
My family and I are doing something fun today and are at a birthday party. Mercedes and Sam's daughter turns one years old today so they're throwing her a party. It's going to be nice to spend some time with our friends and have all of our children hang out together.
Jaxon being the oldest is the most aware of everything that's happening so I think he's the one having the most fun today which is quite amusing. Some of the younger children don't really know what to make of the bouncy house but Jaxon for sure is loving it.
"Mommy, look" Jaxon shouts over to me.
"Oh yeah, you're bouncing so high" I smile at my son.
"So, how are things with everyone?" I ask as my friends and I mingle together.
"Yeah, really good, can't complain" Sam smiles.
"Yeah, we're just loving spending time with Brooke because she's at such a fun age and she seems to be enjoying herself so much today on her birthday" Mercedes says.
"That's good" I smile.
"Speaking of small children, it's not too long until you and Mike have your baby, Tina" Santana points out.
"I know" Tina nods.
"Are you starting to get a little apprehensive about everything?" I ask.
"A little bit actually because there's so much to think about. It's not just nervousness about the birth but everything that comes after it. I mean I don't know what being a parent is like" Tina replies.
"I still can't get it right" I joke.
"What about you Quinn, how are things with your pregnancy?" Santana asks her best friend.
"I think it's all going ok at the moment. I mean I am over 20 weeks now so James and I are hopeful it'll work out" Quinn replies.
"I am sure that it will" Santana smiles.
"Mom, come play with me" Jaxon shouts over to Santana.
"I better go guys; I'll catch up with you soon" Santana says before dashing off to the bouncy house.
"I know Jaxon loves that bouncy house but I think Santana secretly loves it just as much" Quinn laughs.
"She does" I laugh. "She loves getting involved and playing with the kids but she hasn't always been able to fully commit to it because she was pregnant in the past but now that she isn't, she loves playing and doing everything with the children" I add.
"Mommy, come too" Jaxon shouts over at me.
"Do you guys' mind keeping an eye on Olivia for me while I go and play. She's too young to be in the bouncy house with us?" I ask Quinn and James.
"We don't mind at all" Quinn smiles.
"Ok, come on Xavier. Let go and join your mom and brother in the bouncy house" I say as I scoop my youngest son up in my arms.
"Yeah!" Xavier says, clapping his hands together excitedly.
"Is there room for two more" I smile as Xavier and I enter the bouncy house.
"Always" Santana smiles at me.
"Jump!" Xavier squeals excitedly.
"We're jumping sweetie" I laugh as we all begin jumping around together.
"We play over here" Jaxon tells us as he takes Xavier over to the other side where some of the other kids are.
"Ok, but just be careful" Santana tells the boys.
"I can't believe how sociable that little boy of ours is. He's literally only met these kids 10 minutes ago and he's friends with them already" I say amused.
"Well, we always did think Jaxon took after you. I mean a lot of people latch onto you quite quickly so maybe Jax is the same. You both have a warm and welcoming personality" Santana says.
"Maybe" I smile.
"I think I should stop jumping now before I give myself an injury" Santana says.
"Yeah, I mean thank goodness for bras otherwise you'd have some black eyes right now" I smirk.
"You know what, I knew you would make a comment like that" Santana laughs.
"Well, it's true because your breasts will be bouncing up and down as you bounce" I say continuing to smirk.
"That's not even what I was meaning. I meant I'll end up injuring my leg or something like that like pulling a hamstring" Santana says.
"I suppose that is also true" I shrug. "Ok, I think we need to take a break now anyway so let's leave the kids to it" I say as we begin leaving the bouncy house.
"I agree" Santana says as she gets out and then holds her hand out to help me.
"You're being very chivalrous today, my love" I tease my wife as I hold onto her hand and she helps me leave the bouncy house.
"Maybe I have an ulterior motive and I'm being nice because I want something" Santana smirks.
"Oh yeah, what do you want?" I ask, smirking back at her.
"I can't tell you that right now but you will find out soon enough" Santana smiles at me.
XXX
After spending some more time at the party, we all went home. It was a fun day for the kids but they exhausted themselves so as soon as we were home, they took a nap. Once they woke up, Santana and I spent some time with them before we all had dinner together. It's now bedtime for the kids so we've just finished getting them settled and Santana and I will meet in the living room. We'll probably hang out and watch some TV together.
"A little alone time now" I say as I sit down on the couch next to Santana.
"That's right but now for what I want" Santana says as she straddles my hips.
"What you want, what you really really want" I sing.
"Exactly" Santana smiles as she wraps her arms around me.
"So, what is it that you actually want?" I ask curiously.
"You" Santana shrugs.
"What sex?" I ask.
"Yeah, how else would I want you?" Santana laughs.
"Babe, you don't need to be nice to me for me to have sex with you. I'd happily do it any time at any point" I chuckle. "I mean it's no secret I find you insanely attractive" I add.
"Ok" Santana smiles.
"So, shall we go upstairs for something more comfortable?" I ask.
"Yeah, let's go" Santana nods.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Monday 17th March 2025*
Santana and I are both at work today while all of the kids are at daycare. It's actually Olivia's first day at daycare so we're only going to be in work for half the day. We wanted to get Olivia used to being at daycare for when my wife and I do go back to work fulltime but we didn't want to leave her there all day since it's a new environment for her. We wanted to start things off gradually so only half the day today and maybe a few other hours throughout this week until we build things up for leaving her there longer.
"You ok?" I ask Santana curiously.
"Yeah" she nods with a smile.
"Are you sure because you keep staring at me" I say with a nervous laugh, feeling a little self-conscious.
"I'm just staring at you because I can't stop looking at you because you're so beautiful. I'm so lucky to be with someone like you" she admits.
"Oh, well thanks" I say blushing slightly.
"Anyway, how are you getting on with your work?" Santana asks me.
"Not the best, I keep thinking about Olivia. I just want her here with us. I mean I want the boys here too but they know daycare and like it there. Olivia is all new to this and she's so young" I point out.
"I know but we have to do this. Eventually we will be back at work more regularly so we need to get her used to being in daycare. Also, Jessica is there and you know the kids love her so Olivia will be fine" Santana explains.
"That's true" I nod.
"It's going to be ok" Santana gives me a reassuring smile.
"I know that deep down, I just need to give myself some time to get used to some of the changes" I say.
"I get that" Santana nods.
"So, what about you? Are you managing to work ok?" I ask my wife, changing the topic back.
"Yeah, I feel quite productive today. I mean I'm not exactly where I want to be but given the fact we're not back fulltime yet then I would say I've made a good bit of progress for the few hours we've been here" Santana admits.
"That's good" I smile.
"I do have a meeting in 10 minutes actually so I will have to dash off to that but I don't think it'll take too long" Santana says.
"That's cool" I smile.
XXX
Santana and I are working for a little while more before our office door swings open forcibly and in runs Xavier and Jaxon excitedly. They are followed closely behind by Jessica who is carrying Olivia in her car seat.
"Mommies, mommies!" Jaxon shouts loudly.
"We're here sweetheart so please don't shout" Santana says as she leaves her desk to walk over to the boys.
"Did you miss us?" I ask as I too leave my desk and walk over to my children.
"Yeah" Jaxon smiles at me.
"Were they ok at daycare today?" Santana asks Jessica.
"As good as ever" Jessica nods.
"That's good" I smile.
"I wasn't too sure if you were coming down to the daycare to get the kids or not but I knew you wanted to finish about now so I thought I'd just bring the kids up to you because they were desperate to see you anyway" Jessica says.
"That's absolutely fine, it saves us a journey anyway so thank you" I smile.
"We're just wrapping things up and then we'll head home" Santana says.
"Yeah, so let's get those Jackets on boys because we're going home soon" I say to Jaxon and Xavier.
"Ok, mommy" Jaxon nods as I begin putting his jacket on.
"I'll help you and get Xavier's jacket on" Jessica says as she helps my youngest son.
"Thank you" I smile. "So, how are you?" I ask Jessica as we help the children get ready.
"I'm good" Jessica shrugs but I can tell she's lying.
"Your lips read you're good but your face doesn't read the same. What's going on?" I ask.
"Nothing" Jessica shakes her head.
"You seem a bit sad or unhappy about something" Santana points out as she lifts Olivia into her arms.
"Honestly, it's nothing. Don't worry about it" Jessica replies.
"It's clearly something so what's wrong?" I ask.
"Carly has just been acting really strange lately and it's put me in a weird mood. I'm worried this whole thing about being in a relationship with your best friend is too much for her. Maybe she preferred it when we were just best friends and had separate relationships or, she isn't as into girls as she thought she was. I mean she never looked at a girl like that until I told her I loved her so maybe she felt pressured in it" Jessica explains.
"Those are quite strong statements to make Jess so are things really that bad?" Santana asks surprised.
"Yeah, I mean all relationships go through some rough patches but to doubt her feelings for you and to think she doesn't feel comfortable in her sexuality anymore is a big thing" I point out.
"I know and maybe my mind is running away with itself and I'm overthinking everything but it's how I feel. She has been so distant lately that I have no idea what's going on" Jessica sighs.
"In what way has she been distant?" I ask curiously.
"I barely see her anymore" Jessica sighs.
"She has been quite busy with work lately so she's probably just trying to get a handle on things" Santana points out.
"That's what I thought so I let it go for a while but now I feel like it's more than just work. I feel she might be avoiding me at times" Jessica admits.
"Oh wow" I say shocked.
"She's definitely been hiding something as well. She's a lot more secretive about things and that's not like her. We pretty much share everything" Jessica says.
"That doesn't seem like Carly, she usually shares everything with you. Sometimes when we were younger, she used to be closer to you than me and I'm her sister" Santana says.
"Maybe you just need to gently approach the topic and try talking to her. It might be something or nothing. You won't know until you discuss it" I say.
"Yeah exactly" Santana agrees.
"I am going to be optimistic and say things probably won't be as bad as you think. Carly really does love you and if she was doubting things, I am sure she would talk to you" I say reassuringly.
"Yeah, I mean with everything Carly went through with Matt then I doubt she'd do the same to you and string you along so I don't think it'll be as deep as you think" Santana says.
"Just talk to her though and see what's going on" I say.
XXX
Santana and I haven't long been home from work with the kids. I got them all settled while Santana went straight to her phone to call her sister. She wanted to talk to her and see what's going on because the situation with Carly and Jessica seemed surprising because they always seem so happy together.
"She's not answering her phone" Santana says annoyed. "I have called her numerous times already and she hasn't picked up once" she says shaking her head.
"She could well be working babe so she can't answer" I point out.
"I wondered that initially because the first few times went to voicemail but now, it's cutting off after a few rings which means she can see it's ringing and hangs up. The bitch knows it's me calling and she continuously hangs up on me" Santana says pissed off.
"I know but she still could be working" I reason.
"Can you watch the kids for a bit?" Santana asks me as she puts her coat on.
"Of course, but where are you going?" I ask.
"I'm going over there to her place. Give me your keys" Santana states as she holds her hand out to me.
"I beg your pardon?" I say confused.
"The keys to your apartment. I need them in case Carly doesn't answer the door" Santana says.
"Babe, those keys are only for emergencies. I don't have them just so I can walk into the apartment whenever I like. It's still Carly and Jessica's place despite the fact I still own it" I point out.
"This is an emergency" Santana states.
"It's not really babe" I shake my head. "Two people having some relationship issues isn't an emergency nor is it technically our business. I mean I know Jessica confided in us and we want to hear what Carly has to say but technically we don't have to get involved if you know what I mean because it's not pivotal that we should insert ourselves" I explain.
"Whatever, just please give me the keys" my wife says, not really listening to me.
"Ok but I don't like this" I sigh as I hand over the keys.
"I know and I will assure them it was all my decision, not yours" Santana says. "Anyway, I am going to go over there now so I'll see you soon" she says.
"Ok, see you when you get back" I nod. Santana kisses my cheek and then heads out the door.
