Meredith: *was working away when she saw a random number come up on her screen. she doesnt usually answer random calls but she just had a feeling deep in her stomach, that was making her feel like this one was different and would be important due to reacent events with valerie* hello...
*the girls looked up because they were wondering who was on the phone. they couldnt hear the person on the phone so they were trying to judge based on how meredith was responding*
meredith: yes, this is she! *has a million thoughts and scenarios rushing through her mind about what this call could be about*
*santana and brittany turned to look at each other and just have a look of worry. brittany could see that santana was already starting to over think, making herself try to fight from letting the tears fall. santana was sat up on brittanys stomach and kept on looking over at meredith to try and find out whats going on. brittany lay there watching as santana got more and more tense and was visibly starting to shake but was also trying not to show how much she was freaking out. brittany didnt say anything and just reaches up to start rubbing santanas arm to try and soothe her. because santana was so focused on the call meredith was having, she flinched when she felt brittany touch her arm, but soon relaxed into her touch. when santana turned to look at brittany they stopped and got lost in each others eyes, just smiling weakly at each other*
meredith: *was coming to the end of her phone call with who she found out was infact the doctor that has been looking after santanas mum* i understand, thank you for letting me know!
*santana snapped out of her daze and looked over to see meredith looking up at her a second later, with a weak smile on her face. obviously trying to hold back tears because of what the doctor was telling her*
brittany: *sits up a little, with santana still on her lap. britt looked up at her mum as she was closing her laptop and picking up her phone before walking over to the girls at the couch* is everything ok?... who was that? *both santana and brittany were looking at meredith*
meredith: umm... *clears her thoat* it was the doctor that has been looking after valerie... *brittanys felt santana start shaking again*
santana: *talking quietly like she was close to breaking down* what did they say?... *looking down to fidget with her hands because she can never make eye contact when she is this nervous about something*
meredith: *tries to mask her fear and worry so she can be there for when santana hears the news that meredith was just told by the doctor* remember how your mum was gonna be getting her surgery tomorrow morning *santana doesnt say anything and just nods her head* well... there was an incident this morning and one of your mums lungs have been punctured by her broken ribs *brittany goes wide eyed at hearing the news then seconds later she feels santanas arms wrap around her and she can feel santana burst into tears*
brittany: *while she hold on to santana and rubs her back trying to comfort her the best she can. it was now brittany's turn to ask her mum some questions about valerie's situation* so what are they doing now?... i assume that she is just gonna be going in for surgery early? *looks up at her mum and they both have a worried look in their eyes because they really hope that the doctors can help fix the situation, they are also thinking the worse just to prepare themselves for that outcome*
meredith: yeah... the doctor told me that she had been taken into surgery and he told me that he would call as soon as she is out of the operating room. whether its good news or not *looks down at san as she continues to hold onto brittany and has her head hiding in the crook of brittanys neck*
brittany: ok... thanks for telling us *smiles weakly at her mum. brittany continues to rub santanas back soothingly while meredith goes back to get more work done and leaves the girls to have some alone time together. she knowns that brittany can handle it because she is the one who has spent the most time with san out of everyone that knows her*
*santana is trying to think positive and have faith that the doctors will do everything they can to help her mum. but she cant help but let the fear creep up on her and make her think that she is gonna loose her. brittany was sat holding san, thinking that she had started to calm down from crying. but just as she was about to say something, san spoke in a very shaky and whisper like voice*
santana: i cant loose her... i just cant... *starts sobbing again which was when brittany just held santana and tried to calm her down by gently speaking soothing words into her ears*
*10 minutes later! santana isnt crying anymore and her breathing is pretty much back to normal. brittany and santana are still in the same cuddling position so brittany cant see sans face but she knows that she isnt sleeping*
brittany: san?...baby?... *waits for san to say something or to lift her head it and look at brittany*
santana: *snaps out of her negative thoughts when she hears brittany speaking* mhmm?
brittany: how you feeling? *brushes her fingers through sans hair*
*santana sits up and looks at brittany with no facial expresion other than the look of a broken doll. her eyes were puffy from crying so much and her hair was kinda messy. brittany giggles a little as she tucks some of santanas hair behind her ear. she thinks about how santana can do literally anything and still look so cute*
santana: i feel like an evil unicorn has gotten into my brain and turned everything upside down. and i feel like those little goblin things you used to talk about, that are supposed to be protecting me from stomach pains and stuff. have now turned on me and are just jumping around punching all my organs and stuff
brittany: *laughed a little at how santana chose to describe how she was feeling, but soon she felt bad because of what santana was really meaning by it* is there anything i can do to help? *looks into santanas eyes. santana looks at brittany and just shruggs her shoulders*
