Blaine had been looking after the kids all day and when Kurt came back, they were playing in the living room.
"How are things?" Kurt asked.
"Okay," Blaine responded. "I am officially divorced. I signed the papers last week. I thought I'd be more upset, but I guess I know it was the right thing to do. How are things with you?"
"I'm fine," Kurt responded. "Work is stressful but I love it. Alex and I are going back home to Ohio next week for the holidays so I have a lot to do before then."
"Maya and I are off to LA next week. My brother and his fiancé want to host Christmas and Maya is going to spend a day with Santana," Blaine responded. "Also your from Ohio too?"
"Lima," Kurt responded. "You?"
"Westchester." Blaine responded, as Kurt nodded.
"Wow," Kurt responded, before asking another question. "Has she seen Santana since she left?"
"No," Blaine responded. "And I'm kind of worried about it. Santana has never spent more than half an hour alone with Maya in her life, so I'm not sure if Maya will be able to cope with a whole day."
"You've got a tough girl Anderson," Kurt looked over to the small girl with very dark brown curls like Blaine's, Santana's darker skin and brown eyes that also belonged to Santana. "And I'm sure she'll be fine."
"I hope so." Blaine responded.

When they came back, Blaine and Maya met Kurt and Alex for a coffee. The kids were sitting in one corner of the table, and Kurt and Blaine in the other.
"I got a job." Blaine said as Kurt looked at him.
"Where?" Kurt asked.
"Here," Blaine responded. "A friend of mine from before Maya knew I was working again and asked me if I wanted to write songs for a new musical for broadway. They had another lyricist but he dropped out and they need new songs before it goes on in a couple of months."
"That is amazing," Kurt responded. Blaine explained to him what the musical was about and Kurt had to admit it sounded intriguing. "I'll definitely go and see it. How did everything with Santana go?"
"Okay," Blaine responded. "She was too scared to spend the day with Maya so I came with her and went and saw Santa."
"My dad and Carole took Alex so I just escaped it." Kurt laughed, looking at the small boy who very much resembled a young Kurt with slightly lighter hair.
"Kurt," Blaine looked at him. "Can I ask you a question about dating?"
"Go ahead," Kurt responded. "I do warn you I have only ever dated one guy during college and we broke up."
"So you haven't dated anyone since Alex was born?" Blaine asked.
"I don't want random guys becoming a part of mine and Alex's life," Kurt responded. "And I don't really have time to date."
"Santana told me I was crazy when I said I haven't dated at all since the divorce," Blaine responded. "But Maya means too much to me to have some random come into her life."
