Crushing

A day and a half later:

Raven pov: we had just got to Detroit and Kingston texted me the address to their hotel and Santana's room number. When we got there Gianna got checked into her room and took the twins with her, while I went to Santana's room and unlocked the door using the other key. When I walked in he was laying in the bed staring into space in silence.

Raven: hi baby (sits her bag down)

Santana; Ray?

Raven:(slides her shoes off and climbs in the bed next to him) I knew you needed me so I came

Santana:( wraps his arm around her) how you get here ?

Raven: Gianna came in town, we drove, she's in her room two doors down with the boys

Santana: thank you for coming

Raven: you don't have to thank me, I'm bout to be your wife. I'm coming whenever you need me.

Santana pov: I felt so much better that Raven was here. I laid on her chest and she rubbed her fingers through my hair while I cried. Man I just can't believe my mama gone, this shit was really fucking with me.

Raven: have you ate anything?

Santana: I can't

Raven: you need to eat a little baby, I don't want you to make yourself sick

Santana:(sighs) I'll eat later, I just wanna sleep

Raven: rubbing his back) gone to sleep, I'll be here

Raven pov: Santana eventually drifted off to sleep. The best thing I can do is try to help him through this. Kingston told me that serenity and Tana were gonna go over the paper work and get the arrangements done tomorrow. Since it was Thursday I'll probably stay until Saturday before me and Gigi head back. I just wanted to make sure Tana was okay.

Later that night:

Santana pov: being around my boys and Raven really lifted my spirits. I really needed them.

Raven:(walks in to the room) Coney Island smells so good, is it really all that ?(sitting the food on the table)

Santana: it's the best thing about coming home

Raven: how you feeling ?

Santana: I'm alright for now, we gone leave probably tomorrow night and the funeral will probably be the following week so we'll just come back

Raven:(nods) okay (washing her hands) they sleep?

Santana: yeah about 5 minutes now ( gets up and washes his hands)

Raven: I hate seeing you like this ( sighs)

Santana: I'm good baby (walking over to her ) I promise

Raven: looking up at him) your face all red and puffy, I miss your smile. It sucks I can't do nothing

Santana:(wrapping his arms around her pulling her into a hug) just you being here right now is enough for me, I really needed you

Raven: I know I could hear it in your voice, trust me if the boys were older I would've jumped on the next plane here

Santana: I love you Ray I mean it

Raven:smiles a little ) I love you more

Raven pov: we sat at the little table and ate our food and then got ready to call it a night. While Tana was in the shower I pulled out the foldable baby bed and put it into place so I could get ready to give the twins their bath. I sat on the bed and breast fed them while I waited on Tana. By the time he got out I was done feeding them so I let him burp them while I took a shower. Santana needs my support right now and I'm gonna give it to him.
