Okay bye." Blaine hung up the phone and turned to the now one year old in her high chair. It had now been a couple of weeks since Blaine met Kurt, and they were still trying to figure out a play date time.
"Mummy is working in LA and couldn't come back, so it's you and me today Maya." Blaine said as she just looked at him. That was when his phone rang again, and he picked up.
"Blaine it's Kurt," The voice on the other end began. "I was wondering if you could do me a huge favour. I don't know many people in the city, besides my brother and his wife and I need to work-"
"You can bring Alex here," Blaine stopped the panicked rant. "I'm sure Maya would love someone to hang out with on her birthday."
"Oh it's her birthday," Kurt responded. "I don't want to intrude."
"Her mum isn't here and it was just going to be me and Maya making cupcakes anyway. So you are not intruding." Blaine laughed.
"Thank you so much." Kurt said, as Blaine gave him his address. Kurt turned up not fifteen minutes later, and a small boy holding his hand.
"Alex this is Blaine," Kurt crouched down. "You're going to spend the day with him and Maya today."
The small boy with brown hair and big blue eyes just nodded. Kurt mouthed out thank you and said happy birthday to the small girl who was looking at Alex before leaving. When he came back that afternoon, he walked in to Alex and Maya sleeping on a mat on the floor, and it looked like they had been eating cupcakes.
"They fell asleep just before," Blaine said quietly. "I was going to move them but they looked so peaceful."
"It's cute," Kurt smiled. "I don't want to wake him yet."
"Then can I make you a coffee?" Blaine asked as Kurt nodded. Blaine walked into the kitchen, and Kurt followed him in.
"Thank you so much for looking after him," Kurt said quickly. "I don't know what I would have done. I hope he wasn't too much of a handful."
"He is easy compared to Maya," Blaine laughed. "That one takes after her mother."
"Her mother is your wife?" Kurt looked at the wedding photo.
"Yeah," Blaine responded. "Five years now. We used to be a lot happier though."
"Happier?" Kurt responded.
"I don't want to bore you with my marital problems," Blaine handed him the coffee. "Is Alex's mother involved with you?"
"No," Kurt laughed. "I am actually gay. His mum and I had a one-time thing in my senior year at college. She left and I was left with Alex."
"Oh wow," Blaine responded. "I guess Maya is kind of lucky. I do feel sorry she has to deal with so much fighting though. And her mum isn't even here for her birthday."
"I'm sure she's a tough girl," Kurt responded. "Everyone thinks first birthdays are such a big deal, but they won't ever remember them."
"I know," Blaine responded. "I just had an idea in my head of what this day would be like, and it wasn't this. Since Maya, my wife and I just fight. That's it. We were very close to getting a divorce two years ago, and then she fell pregnant and I guess that's where we are now. We never resolved anything."
"Do you ever think of leaving?" Kurt asked. "Becoming a single dad?"
"No," Blaine responded, looking at the small girl. "Santana is her mum, and I don't think I could ever do that to Maya. My parents divorced when I was twelve, and I love her too much to do that."
"Daddy!" The small boy opened his eyes and Maya began to stir before waking up.
"Hey buddy," Kurt scooped up the seventeen month old. "Did you have fun with Blaine and Maya?"
"Yeah," The boy nodded as Kurt noticed the time. "We better get going but thank you for today Blaine."
"Bye Blaine." The boy said with a lisp.
"Bye buddy," Blaine responded. "Maybe we can do this again."
"My place next time." Kurt laughed.
"Sounds good." Blaine said scooping up the small girl and letting Kurt and Alex out.
