Kurt was sitting on the swing. There was a silence around him. The night sky was full of stars. They shone much more here in Westerville than they did in New York. He didn`t know how long he was there. He was cold but didn`t want to go inside. After a long time he felt relaxed and he couldn`t risk losing that feeling. He closed his eyes and with a smile on his face he started to swing faster. Kurt didn’t have much time for Blaine tonight as they were doing the last finishing on their new house. But it didn’t matter because Blaine was…Well, Blaine was Blaine. His best friend, his lover, the love of his life and above all of that his husband for almost five years now that still made him melt by one look or touch.

“Aren`t you cold? I have a blanket.” Kurt took a deep breath and opened his eyes. Blaine stood next to the swing, blanket in his arms. He handed it to Kurt.

“Everybody went to bed.” Blaine didn’t want his husband to worry about their kids or friends who were helping with moving out.

“Are you tired?” Kurt asked him and looked at him, his eyes full of love and admiration. Blaine was tired, but he wasn`t going to fall asleep anytime soon anyway. He was too excited about their first night in the new house.

“I`m not.” Kurt lifted the blanket and nodded to a free space on the swing. Blaine sat next to him and neither of them said a word. They looked at the stars above them too afraid of ruining the moment if one of them would say something. After a while Kurt couldn`t take it anymore. He broke the silence by a simple “Thank you.” Blaine turned his gaze from the stars to Kurt`s face.

“What for?” Kurt smiled at him. “For everything. For being here for me and our kids. For making sure we have everything we want and need… Sometimes I feel like I don’t appreciate you enough. Like you deserve so much more than a simple thank you for making my life amazing.”
“You are making my life amazing as well. I can feel your appreciation in every word you say and everything you do. We are a team Kurt. Our family works because we both are fully in.” Blaine couldn`t resist Kurt`s face in the moonlight. He caressed Kurt`s cheek.

“I…” Kurt stopped him by putting his index finger on Blaine`s lips. His fingers continued their way over Blaine`s cheek and jaw until it ended in Blaine`s curls. Everything shot down around them. Blaine leaned into Kurt and pressed their lips together. The kiss was soft and barely there. It lasted just for a while. Their hearts beat fast and before Kurt had a chance to respond Blaine placed his mouth on Kurt’s again, this time sharing a longer and deeper kiss with him.

“I love you.” They said simultaneously when they pulled away.

“The guys want to help with a slide and sandpit before they go back to Pittsburgh tomorrow.”

“Okay. I just hope it will go better than helping with cots.” Blaine laughed at the memory of their friends trying to build beds for their son and daughter and insisting on the couple to take a break. It’s simple to say Kurt and Blaine were the ones thankful that their kids didn’t have to spend another night at Blaine’s parents.

“Well, our one-year olds are safely sleeping in their rooms so everything is alright.”

“Yeah, it is.” Kurt smiled and rested his head on Blaine’s shoulder.

“I swear I’ll do my best to make us happy here.” Blaine whispered to Kurt’s hair and tugged him closer.

“We will be happy here, Blaine. We would be happy wherever. It doesn’t matter where we are but who we are with. We can get through anything together. We got through the distance, through the horrible adoption process, through the not so easy start of our own business...and we are still here. Together with two beautiful children, one little recording studio and one e-shop that provide us enough money to live our life the way we want to. Near to our families, in the place where we can raise more than two kids if we want to…”

“We have a pretty good life…”

“I couldn’t ask for better…”

“I love you, Kurt.”

“I love you too, Blaine.”
