"...And then I came back downstairs, I swear I was only gone for, like, less than a minute, and Stitch had jumped up on the counter and knocked the peanut butter off," Jayden said, laughing as she told the story to Santana. "So, Brittsy and I just look at each other, and then we look at Ollie, who's covered, and I mean covered in peanut butter while Stitch licks it off of him. I swear, it was the funniest thing ever, and I really wish you were here to see it."

"We had to give Ollie, like, three baths before we got all the peanut butter off," Brittany added, giggling.

"That sounds like it was really funny," Santana chuckled.

Jayden leaned her head onto Brittany's shoulder, her legs draped over the blonde's lap as they sat in a chair Skyping with Santana. Brittany told the next update that they had for their girlfriend, and Santana sighed sadly as she listened.

"Britt, I'm so sorry Sue was so mean to you," she said with a small pout. "I wish I was there to make it all better."

"Yeah, me too," Brittany said sadly. "Do you think we could scissor-Skype later?"

"I've got cheer practice every night till midnight, until homecoming."

"Here it comes," Bernadette grumbled with a sigh, rolling her eyes. "She never has time for us anymore."

"I love you, Britt, Jay, but I'm so late," Santana said, frowning softly when Jayden looked away with no emotion. "I gotta go okay? I'll text you if we get a break."

"Okay," Brittany sighed sadly. "Have fun."

"Say goodbye, Jayden," Skye whispered.

"Goodbye, Jayden," the Jewish girl muttered under her breath, her eyes glued to the purple polish on her nails.

Santana sighed when Jayden didn't say anything, her expression remaining blank and emotionless. "Okay. Bye."

"Bye." Brittany shut her laptop with a small pout as the call ended. Her eyes landed on Lord Tubbington, who laid on the bed wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket. "I'm not speaking to you. I know you, Stitch, and Ollie joined a gang."

"My sweet boys," Jayden mumbled as she hugged Brittany's waist.

"Are you okay, angel?" Brittany asked, gently threading her fingers through her girlfriend's loose brunette locks.

"She never has time for us anymore." Jayden shifted so that she was straddling Brittany's lap. She hid her face in the crook of her neck, silent tears streaming down her cheeks.

"I know," Brittany sighed sadly and held the petite girl close to her. She gently rubbed her back and kissed her cheek. "It's tough right now, but we'll get through it...Is there anything that I could do to help you feel better?"

"I don't feel like sweet lady kisses right now," Jayden mumbled, closing her eyes as she nuzzled into Brittany's neck and smelled her perfume to help her relax.

"That's okay," Brittany whispered reassuringly as she rubbed her back. She picked Jayden up and carried her over to the bed, holding her on top of her as they laid down. "We can just cuddle, if you want. It's been a long day."

Jayden mumbled something that Brittany couldn't quite make out, nuzzling further into the older girl as she melted into her for comfort and safety.

Oliver took small nibbles out of the Oreo cream filling his Mama Bri gave him, cooing constantly as he leaned into his mom's chest. Brittany handed an Oreo to Jayden, and she dipped it in the small tub of peanut butter she brought with her to that afternoon's Glee rehearsal.
