*all through the meal, san would look to see how Brittany kept on looking down at her left hand with a smile on her face. and that made Santana smile as well. it wasnt until later on when they were back home and getting ready for bed that Santana came out of the bathroom and into their room to see Brittany admiring the ring with tears in her eyes as if she was going through a completly different emotion than what San had seen all evening*
Santana: *goes over to sit next to Brittany and she just placed her hand on Britt's thigh so that she could look up at santana* babe, whats wrong... why are you crying? *is trying to hide her worry and not get into her head before Brittany explains herself*
Brittany: *takes a very shaky, deep breath as she finally has the strength to look at San* i cant believe this is finally happening and he isnt gonna be here to walk me down the isle! *starts sobbing as she collapses into Santana's lap* WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO AND FIGHT IN THE STUPID WAR! WHY COULDNT HE STICK AROUND AND BE WITH ME AND MY MUM *raises her voice because she is so overwhelmed with emotion and all the thoughts going on in her mind*
*Santana knows that words wont really help right now so she just starts brushing her fingers through Brittany's hair in an attempt to calm her down and that will give san some time to think of how to deal with this situation in a way that will help keep Britt thinking in a positive way like she always does. but Santana cannot for the life of her think of a solution. Santana had been so busy being happy and excited that she didnt even have time to think about anything that could get in the way and ruin their special day. for a long time she just continued to sit on their bed with Brittany laying on her lap. who had her eyes shut tight, trying to calm her breathing*
*what felt like an eternity, but was more like 20 minutes... Santana noticed that Brittany's breathing had changed to be alot calmer. so she slips herself out from under Brittany and stand at the side of the bed so she can carry brittany and reposition her so that she is tucked into her side of the bed*
Santana: *leans down to place a kiss on Brittany's head and whisper some sweet words into her ear as if she will hear her* dont worry my precious unicorn... i'll do whatever it takes to make this the most memorable and happy day of your life. there is no doubt on my mind that your dad will be looking down from the clouds and will be so proud too see you living your dream *tears up a little because she hates seeing Brittany so sad and not being able to do much about it because greiving is a part of life that needs to be accepted. along with all the emotions that come with it*
*once santana was done doing her nightly bathroom routine, she went down stairs for a glass of water then came back up to the room to see that Brittany was still sound asleep so san cuddles up to Brittany and falls asleep withing seconds. the next day! Santana was unintentionally up Bright and early. and instead of just having a day in bed, she decided that it would be nice to go down and make breakfast for when brittany wakes up. so she got out of bed and went down to the kitchen to start cooking. 15 minutes later she was serving food up on 2 plates and setting it on a tray with 2 glasses of fresh apple. Then she walked into the room and went to put the tray on the floor so that she could sit on the edge of the bed and wake Britt up*
Santana: *leans down and kisses Brittany on the face and neck a few times. once she sat up she saw Brittany start to wake up* good morning beautiful *smiles down at Britt*
brittany: morning *sleepily smiles at san as she keep her eyes closed*
Santana: i made you something! wanna sit up so you can see what it is? *speaks quietly but enthusiastically*
Brittany: just a minute... *is still finding it hard to keep her eyes open. Santana giggles at Brittany for being such a cute sleepy person in the morning. she leans over to give Brittany a few more kisses on the lips this time. which Britt reacts to that by wrapping her arms round Santana and keeping her close so she can lay on top of Brittany and cuddle*
Santana: *2 minutes later* come on baby... this stuff is gonna get cold if we dont eat it now! *pushes herself up so that she is hovering over Brittany's body*
Brittany: k! *sits herself up against the headboard then gives San one last kiss before she gets off the bed to get the tray from the ground and place it on the bed between the two of them*
Santana: *sees Britt's eyes light up with love and adoration for the gesture* dig in *smiles and hands some cutlery to Britt*
Brittany: *smiles at San as she takes the fork and knife* thank you so much for doing this! *cuts up a bit of her Blueberry pancake and shoves it in her mouth without hesitation. once she chews it up, she puts her head back, closes her eyes and lets out a moan of satisfaction*
Santana: *laughs at Brittany's reaction* so, im guessing that you like them then?
Brittany: *smiles at San* you are the greatest cook ive ever met! *santana smiles at Britt then they go back to eating their food and drinking their juice*
