Disclaimer: Tobi, Alex, Nicole and mistakes are mine. Nothing else is mine. Oh but Hazel is also mine. Poor dog I kept forgetting to add her.


She felt hands slide around her stomach from behind which brought her back from her thoughts as a smile spread along her lips and she leaned back into the person. "Penny for your thoughts love?"

Rachel hummed, "Just thinking is all," she turned around and saw her fiance of two years. Santana looked from those piercing brown eyes down to the baby bump Rachel had. "She's kicking," the diva giggled as she watched Santana kneel down and press her lips to her lovers stomach then began to whisper to the baby. It always made Rachel's heart soar when Santana did things like that. Made her fall harder in love for the woman, if it was even possible for her to love Santana anymore then she already did.

She thread her fingers through Santana's long ebony locks while Santana continued to talk to their baby before she stood up to press a kiss to her lovers lips. "Come on, our guests are waiting," she then grabbed the salad bowl from Rachel and pulled her outside on the back patio. Rachel leaned down to kiss Alex on the cheek as she sat next to her in a chair under the umbrella to keep the sun from them.

"Hey there little star," Alex grinned and reached over to grab her cousin's hand and hold it in her own. "How's my god daughter?"

"She's rowdy today," confessed Rachel. Her free hand slid over her plump stomach just as the baby kicked and made her giggle. Santana set down the bowl where the rest of the food was then went back to the grill she was cooking at.

Rachel looked over to the pool in her backyard just in time to see Sam jump in with his two year old little boy. She watched them resurface and how Sam held the boy in the air as he giggled his little boy laugh, his bright blond hair wet from the water. The diva smiled when Brittany swam over to them and kissed her husband on the lips before grabbing their child and swam away. She then looked over to where Santana was as a little four year old boy ran up to her. He had spikey black hair and fair tan skin. His eyes were as blue as his mothers.

"Aunt Tana will you pay wif me?" he asked and held out his water gun. Santana looked from the grill down to the little boy then picked him up and headed over to where Rachel and Alex sat only to hand Alex the tongs. "Go finish while I play with my little nephew here, duty calls," Alex stood with a salute and a snarky, "As you wish mistress," then walked over to the grill to finish. Rachel giggled when she saw Santana stick her tongue out at the older woman before she grabbed Tobi and tossed him in the pool before jumping in after him in time to catch him.

She watched her family play and have a great time with a glued smile to her face. Sam and Brittany squirting their guns at Santana and Tobi who sat on her shoulders. Cory sitting on his dads shoulders. It was a beautiful sight. Rachel looked over where Alex stood at the grill and her smile faltered a little. Her cousin had lost so much in her life, her mother, her father and her loved one. It made Rachel sad for her, then she watched as Nicole came out of the house holding a bucket full of ice with all different kinds of beer and alcoholic beverages.

"Look who I found," she announced before kissing Alex on the lips. Rachel tilted her head to the side and saw Emily walking up to her as well as Puck, who had an equally filled bucket that he sat next to Nicole's before making his was to the girls.

"Noah! Emily! You guys made it," Rachel struggled to stand but Emily beat her to it and helped up for a hug moving away to allow Puck a hug as well.

"We would have been here sooner had this little moron took the right exit like I told him to," Emily joked. Pucked blushed. "I said I was sorry babe, I got excited," Emily just smiled and kissed his cheek before joining Rachel at the table.

"I'm glad you buzzed that mohawk off Noah," Rachel had stated softly as she rubbed his head.

"It was time for a change and I needed a better look for my girl over there," he nodded towards Emily, who grinned.

"I'm proud of you," she hugged him once more then let him go so he could hop into the pool. She sat back down and watched her ever growing family with that same happy smile on her lips.

"You look alot happier Rachel,"

"I feel happy, I have a real family now and everyone is here," she looked to Emily, "I don't want to ever let go again,"

Emily reached her hand over to grab Rachel's and squeeze gently, "You never have to,"

Rachel looked away and stared at them all. Alex with her arm around Nicole's waist and a beer in one hand, both of them in their own little world till their little boy ran up to them and Nicole picked him up. He shot Alex in the face with the gun who tickled his bare stomach and made him laugh. It sounded like Alex and it was beautiful. She then looked over to where Brittany and Sam sat on the edge of the pool, close together as they flirted and laughed.

Puck playing with Cory, lifting him up and tossing him in the air before catching him. Tobi thought it was fun so he ran over to them before jumping in just as Puck caught him then tended to both boys. Then looked up just as Santana walked up to her, in all of her sexy tanned glory as she wrung her hair out before tying it up into a messy bun and leaned down to kiss Rachel on the lips. Just watching Santana walk to her then kiss her made Rachel's heart pound faster then it should have.

If Santana can still make her feel this way after so many years then she knew the latina was the one for her. Always had been.

She felt a cold nose hit her hand so she looked down and smiled, "Hey there Hazel," she scratched behind the dogs ear just as she laid next to Rachel's chair to keep her guard like she always did. Rachel smiled at the faithful dog before looking back to her fiancé.

"Dinners ready guys!" Alex announced. "Let's eat!"
