Saturday 9th of January

Santana awoke that morning in her favourite way. She smelt lavender and felt warm arms around her. She snuggled deeper into Brittany's chest and took a deep breath.

"Morning sleepy head" Brittany said softly to the girl in her arms. Santana was never good in the morning and had to have special treatment. Whispering was a way to ensure Santana's happiness.

"Hmm" Santana groaned as she opened her eyes and adjusted to the sunlight coming in through the window. She rubbed her eyes and sat up slightly. Brittany reached up and placed a soft kiss to her lips.

"Okay, now I can talk. Now I've had my morning kiss." Santana said with a smile. One of her favourite parts of the day was her morning kiss with Brittany. It was often in the car on the way to school but today it was in bed.

"Nice pyjamas" Brittany said looking down at Santanas outfit. Santana had borrowed Brittany's pyjamas, they were a little oversized but they looked cute.

"Thanks, I like it when I wear your clothes" Santana admitted.

"I like it when you wear my clothes too" Brittany replied. They were joined again in a kiss. This one lasted a little longer.

"Knock knock" someone said from behind the door. The girls jumped apart and laid back down on their pillows. Susan walked in already dressed and ready to leave the house.

"Good morning you two! I'm off out, Zoe is having a play date with her friend and your father and I are going with her. You'll be home alone for a little while, I'll see you around 12:30 ish" Susan informed the girls.

"Okay, have fun." Brittany replied as her mother left the room. The girls waited and listened for the front door to close, once it was locked there was silence letting them know they were home alone.

"Come on then" Brittany said as she climbed out of bed. "Let's get up and do something"

"B no, it's only 9. Come back here and we can go back to sleep." Santana said with her arms stretched out. "I needs me some Britt Britt cuddles"

Brittany stood there with her hands on her hips and a quirked eyebrow. Santana gave her puppy dog eyes and a pout.

"Ugh fine! I'll go get some coffee and then I'll come back and cuddle you." Brittany said, then she left the room. "You're so needy" she muttered under her breath.

"I HEARD THAT!" Santana called down the hallway. Brittany giggled to herself.

Brittany returned a few minutes later with two mugs of coffee. She passed one to Santana and they both sat up and rested against the headboard.

"Mmm you make the best coffee" Santana said as she sipped on the hot, bitter drink.

"It's made with love" Brittany replied with a smile.

They turned on the TV and flipped through the channels. They settled on some reality TV show but neither of them were really watching it. They were shared little kisses and cuddling.

Santana's stomach made a really loud growl. She went pink in the face out of embarrassment.

"Someone's hungry" Brittany teased her with a giggle. She drew small, lazy circles on Santanas stomach with her index finger. Santana laughed with her. "That's good because today I am going to show you how to make my famous pancakes"
