Santana's POV

I pull away from the hug me and Britt had been stood in for a while now and look at her.

Her eyes were red and puffy from the crying. I run my hand down her arm and take her hand in mine. I look up at her and mange to break a half smile across my face. I hate seeing her like this.

I grab my bags and walk hand in hand with her back to her car. I chuck my bags in and convince her to let me drive. We both get in to the car and as I dive along with one hand on the steering wheel I place on hand on Britts knee.

I think it was like an hour or two before we pulled up into Britts drive way.

I get out leaving my bags I get out and walk round to her door and open it. I noticed she fell asleep awhile back. Honestly I don't blame her for sleeping I know crying kinda tries a lot of people out. I unbuckle her belt and pick her up making sure her arms are around my neck. As I carry her in she nuzzles her head against the crook of my neck.

I gently kick the door shut and walk over to the couch. I place Britt down before walking into the kitchen where Mr and Mrs Pierce were sat drinking coffees. I knew that by the strong smell of the stuff you got as you walked in.

"Hey Mr and Mrs P"I say cheerfully as I lean against the kitchen door frame

"Hello Santana" Mr pierce answered back

"Hey San" Mrs P smiled back. "When did you get here?"

Mrs P has always liked me more then Mr P. She seems so much cooler with it all.

"Just got here. Britt drove to pick me up but she fell asleep while I was driving back"

"Where is she?"Mr P asked me coldly.

I really don't like him it's official. I need to ask her mom if it's ok to ask for Britts hand in marriage.....not him.

"She's just on the couch. I carried her in" I reply

He nods back at me before going back to drinking his coffee.

"Um Mrs P. Can I talk to you for a second?Alone" I ask nervously

"Of course San. Come on"

She leads me back through the door in the kitchen and into their backyard.

Wow this place hasn't changed since me and Britt where like four. The swing set was still there. Me and Britt played on that when we were younger then it became a place where we just sat and talked as we got older. It was where I first asked out Britt. And......It was where Britt first broke up with me. And next to it was a huge tree. Man that tree really hasn't got a lot of truck left. All around it me and Britt had wrote notes to each other when she was grounded and I snook around the back of her house and climbed over the fence. And it's where I carved the date me and Britt told her parents we were together. Right under where we carved our coming out dates. And the grass of the yard hadnt changed from where me and Britt went from chasing each other around to laying there late at night holding each other watching the stars.

Mrs P coughed lightly to gain back my attention.

I snap my head back to face her "sorry it just.."

"Just this place holds a lot of memories?" She finished my sentence

I nod

She smiles and then says "so what did you want to talk to me about?"

I take a deep breath "is it okay if I...." I pause.

"If you asked Brittany to marry you?"

How the heck?! Man this woman knows me well.

"Y-yeh if I asked her to be my wife" I reply

"It's fine by me Santana. You know your part of our family and I was just waiting for you to ask" she smiles and hugs be quickly.

I hug back then pull away "thanks Mrs P"

"Hey call me mom" she's always trying to get me too call her that.

"Um I think I'll stick with Mrs p" I say in a jokey way.

She nods and we both go back inside where were met by Brittany sat at the table with her father.

She smiles at me. I smile back.

"I'll be right back" I wink at Mrs P

She winks back.

I go outside and go into my bag in Britts car and take out a small box.
I walk back in holding it behind my back.

All of Britts family are now sat in the living room.

I take a deep breath and take Britts hand and lead her to a chair which sits separate to the rest

"Britt can you take a seat?"

"Um ok" she says softly

"Britt we've been through a lot and some people love someone because they make them a better person but your not like that. We're not like that. We're not like other people. You've always just wanted me to be me and I've only ever wanted you to be you. And even with all the confusion and everything we have had to go through in the last few months. I've just realised that no matter how many times we try to walk away from are thing we can't and I don't want to live with out my one true love"

I get done on one knee and pull the ring out and open the box.

"So Brittany S Pierce...." I go softer in my tone of voice "will you marry me?"

I bite my lip and look up at her.

"Omg omg..." She says in surprise "I...I...I don't know"

I feel my heart drop
