The wedding was going to be in June, the year after they married. It was perfect for everyone, and it gave Kurt enough time to organise. Kurt had been concentrating on this wedding. One night, Kurt was finalising the guest list before sending out invites. The doorbell rang, and Kurt went to answer it. He recognised the older couple and didn’t say anything for a moment.
“Is Blaine around?” The man asked.
“Yeah,” Kurt snapped back to reality. “Come in.”
They walked in, to see Blaine helping Jayden with him homework. The young blonde boy looked up a second before Blaine did.
“Mum, Dad,” Blaine stammered. “How-I mean-What are you doing here?”
“Cooper told us where you were,” His dad answered, looking at Jayden. “Can we speak to you alone for a moment?”
Blaine led his parents into his and Kurt’s bedroom before shutting the door. Kurt went over to a confused Jayden, and they could hear every word.
“Cooper said something about getting married,” His dad began. “Is this true?”
“Yes,” Blaine responded. “That is true.”
“I thought this was just a phase,” His dad asked. “I didn’t think it would last that long. That you get over it fast enough.”
“Being gay isn’t a phase,” Blaine snapped. “It isn’t something I choose. I love Kurt, and I am going to marry him.”
“And that young boy is he yours or Kurt’s?” His mum asked.
“Kurt’s,” Blaine answered. “But after we get married, I am thinking of signing adoption papers.”
“Do you even know what being a father is like?” His dad asked. “It’s more than signing a couple of pieces of paper.”
“I care about Jayden dad,” Blaine retaliated. “And whether you like it or not, he and Kurt are very important people in my life.”
“Blaine,” His dad looked at him. “Your only 24, you don’t need this kind of baggage in your life.”
“Kurt and Jayden aren’t baggage,” Blaine snapped. “I love them, and they love me.”
“You don’t need them Blaine,” His dad responded. “You are young. You can find a nice girl and settle down Blaine.”
“I am settled down,” Blaine answered. “I am going to marry the person that I love. No matter what you, or anyone else, has to say.”
“Don’t do this to yourself Blaine,” His dad commented. “You can do better than Kurt.”
“There is no one better than Kurt,” Blaine answered. “He is the kindest, funniest, smartest, most caring person I know. And he is an amazing father to Jayden. Kurt is the love of my life, and if you can’t understand that, than feel free to leave.”
Kurt watched Blaine’s father leave the apartment, and Blaine walked out, trying to hide his tears. His mother stopped for a moment.
“Blaine,” She looked at him. “For what it’s worth, I’m proud of you. You’re not letting your dad change who you are. When is the wedding?”
“June,” Kurt smiled. “I can send you an invite when we finish them.”
“I would appreciate that,” She smiled at Kurt, and then looked at Jayden. “You two are doing a good job with him.”
She soon left and Blaine just closed his eyes as she shut the door.
“Are you okay?” The six year old asked.
“I’m fine,” Blaine smiled. “I’ll help you finish the homework tomorrow.”
“Daddy can help me,” Jayden answered, hugging Blaine. “It’s okay.”
“Jayden,” Kurt looked at the boy. “I’ll meet you in your room in a minute.”
“Okay,” Jayden hugged Blaine again. “Night Blaine, night daddy – I love you both.”
“Love you too.” Blaine and Kurt said in unison.
Kurt tucked Jayden into bed and walked out to Blaine, who was sitting in their bedroom. Kurt didn’t have to say anything, all he did was pull Blaine into him, and let the smaller man cry.
