With two growing boys and Sophia becoming older and more independent time was going faster than Kurt or Blaine wanted it to. Sophia was now thirteen, while the boys were three and as noisy and mess creating as ever. The girl had gone to a sleepover birthday party and Blaine had picked her up the following morning.
"How was it?" The older man asked on the drive back to the house.
"Okay," Sophia responded. "I guess."
"You guess?" Blaine asked.
"Well I mean it could have been better," Sophia responded. "It's kind of embarrassing."
"You can tell me." Blaine smiled as Sophia breathed in.
"I got my period at Emily's," Sophia said quietly. "I mean, she had stuff for me but it was still embarrassing."
"Oh hey," Blaine went to grab her hand. "These things happen. It was the first time, right?"
"Yeah," Sophia said quietly. "The girls didn't really care. I suppose I just want a shower."
"Well you can definitely have that at home." Blaine responded.
They got back to the house and Sophia tried to quickly escape Kurt who was making lunch.
"Is she okay?" Kurt asked as the girl walked up the stairs.
"She kind of had an embarrassing night," Blaine responded as Kurt raised an eyebrow. "She got her period."
"Oh god," Kurt muttered. "Should I talk to her?"
"She's having a shower." Blaine laughed.
"We got her the stuff for it, right?" Kurt was trying to rack his brain, remembering the day almost two years prior; Kurt and Blaine had asked Rachel about talking about puberty.
"How is everything," Rachel asked one day while she and Kurt had a now very rare lunch date together. "With your three."
"Great," Kurt responded. "The boys are a bit of a handful but were managing. How are your three kids?"
"Finn is a lot easier than the other two," Rachel laughed at the joke. "No they're okay. Finn his home quite a bit so I don't feel so bad. I actually got Fanny into Ballet."
"You really want to make her a mini Rachel don't you?" Kurt laughed.
"It's my dream." Rachel joked.
"Blaine and I were actually wondering if you could do a favour with Sophia," Kurt bit his lip. "We want to talk about puberty and stuff with her but we kind of don't even know where to start."
"How about I come and talk to her," Rachel responded. "As a child in Sophia's shoes I think it's a bit less embarrassing coming from me."
"Do – do you think that's the best thing to do?" Kurt asked.
"Trust me." Rachel smiled.
The next week they sat Fanny down while Kurt, Blaine and Finn took the other four kids to the park. Kurt and Blaine were so happy to have Rachel there to talk to Sophia about everything and show Kurt and Blaine what to get for her.

In the next year Sophia has grown up and the girl soon was starting high school. She had been begging her fathers for a hair straightener that she got for Christmas the year before. The two four year olds were at the breakfast table with Kurt and Blaine when the girl came down.
"Does this look okay?" The girl asked Kurt as she showed him the skirt and boots she was wearing. Her hair was straightened and she was wearing a headband in her long dark brown hair.
"Beautiful as usual." Kurt smiled.
"Is it weird that I'm kind of nervous starting high school?" Sophia asked. "I mean all my friends will be there. It's so much more grown up."
"I get that," Blaine responded as Kurt nodded. "I was nervous starting high school too."
"I wish I was in high school." Four year old Alex pouted from the spot next to his sister.
"Woah," Kurt responded. "One is enough for now."
"Why?" Dalton asked.
"Because three kids in high school is enough to give daddy a heart attack," Kurt responded. "Or start greying and we all don't want that."
Blaine was silently laughing at Kurt who was thirty three years old and already worrying about going grey.
