"ELIJAH! Why would you do that to your sister? You wouldn't like it if I did that to you would you? hm?

"No Dada"

"Then why did you do it to her?"

"'Cause it's funny"

"Yeah, well Daddy's not laughing"

Kurt looked down at his son, who was stood there with massive eyes looking up at his Daddy. Ava was in his arms crying as her brother thought it would be 'funny' to step on her fingers as she was lay on the floor. He tried his best to soothe her, rocking her gently, still glaring at his son.

"I don't know what's got into you, Elijah, but you need to cut it out, because Daddy doesn't like naughty boys, neither does Papa, and Santa definitely doesn't like naughty boys, so no presents for Elijah if he carries on being naughty"

Elijah burst into tears at the thought of not getting any presents.

"I pwomise I be good Daddy! I pwomise!"

Kurt had to try his hardest at keeping to character, Elijah had to learn that it wasn't okay to do the stuff he kept doing, but all he wanted to do was to gather him in his eyes and dry his tears, this parenting thing was tough, even tougher because today Ami had gone to the hospital, leaving him with all three kids and Ami's little boy Elliott on his own.

"Okay, well, apologise to your sister and then you can go and play with Elliott quietly in the living room."

He watched as Elijah apologised gently to his sister, kissing her on the cheek, Kurt couldn't help but smile at the gesture, when he wanted to be Elijah was a caring and considerate child, and he knew that eventually that child would shine through again.

"Okay, beautiful girl, why don't we go and have cuddles with Daddy on the couch whilst your brother plays, and your sister sleeps, Daddy needs to look at vacation brochures, yes he does"

Kurt laughed as Ava reached up and put her hand over his mouth, kissing her fingers softly he sat down and sank into the couch, laying her on his lap as he pulled the brochure towards him. He and Blaine had decided to take a three day vacation after their vow renewal, leaving the kids with his Dad and Carole. It was an amazing opportunity for him and Blaine to have some time alone, and the location had to be perfect.

Flipping through the pages he looked at all the amazing hotels available, he kept going back to Mexico, it did look amazing, it looked exactly what they needed right now- sun, sea, sand and sex. He blushed even though he had only had these thoughts in his head, God, he was such a child, even at nearly 30 and with 3 kids, he still blushed like a virgin.

"I think Mexico sounds good for Daddies' vacation, don't you think, Ava? Hm?" She gurgled adorably at Kurt, clapping her hands together. She clearly didn't understand a word he was saying, but seemed content enough at being in her Daddy's lap and being bounced every so often. One thing that had changed with their impending nuptials was the amount of texts Blaine was sending, it was like they were teenagers again, not being able to be apart. Kurt loved it, he loved feeling like even through 10 years and 3 kids they were still the same boys who had met on that staircase all those years ago.

Blaine: Hey gorgeous, how's your day going? Do we still have lucifer for a child? xo

Kurt: Ha! Yep, Ava only just has all 10 of her fingers, no thanks demon child stepping on them and making her cry xo

Blaine: Oh God! Is she okay? Give her a massive kiss from Papa, and I'll have a word with Elijah when I get home, he can't go treating girls like that! xo

Kurt: No need, I told him that Santa wasn't coming if he carried on, that seemed to do the trick, and he is now playing nicely with Elliot in the living room xo

Blaine: Ami not back yet then? xo

Kurt: No, she said she'd be back about an hour ago, I hope everything is okay with her xo

Blaine: I'm sure she'll be fine, look honey, I need to go, how about some Papa, Daddy time tonight? xo

Kurt: I look forward to it ;) xo

Blaine: I wish I could see your blush right now, adorable xo

Kurt smiled at how well his husband knew him, sure enough he was blushing like a virgin again. Tucking his phone away, he went back to looking for holidays, mind wandering slightly to where exactly Ami had got to, although hospitals could sometimes take ages.

Another hour later and Kurt had finally picked out a hotel and package deal he wanted to book for their vacation, dog earing the page for Blaine to look at later. Ava had long since fallen asleep in his lap, and he had already gone and put her in her crib with Imogen asleep in her own crib. He went back downstairs, deciding it was time to start on dinner, before he could get to the kitchen, the doorbell went, and Kurt took a detour to the front door, knowing full well it would be Ami and D back from the hospital.

When he opened the door, expecting to see two smiling faces, what he was met with broke his heart, Ami was leaning into D's shoulder, sobbing slightly, D was stoney faced and clearly holding tears back.

"Oh my God! Guys what's the matter? Come in! Come in!" He ushered the two of them in and through to the kitchen, not wanting to alert the two boys playing in the living room to their presence so they could talk in privacy.

When they were all in the kitchen, sat round the kitchen table, Ami finally found her voice, and looked up at Kurt, tears still streaming down her face. Kurt could feel his own tears start to fall, he hated seeing one of his closest friends so upset, and held her hand in his as she started to talk.

"W-we went to have a scan for the new baby, and they have found a p-problem, something has gone wrong, and basically I have miscarried, I'm not p-pregnant anymore!" At this she completely broke down, D holding her close and letting her cry, he himself had silent tears coming down his face. Kurt gasped loudly, he couldn't believe it, his gorgeous friend, who honestly couldn't do anymore for anyone had such a massive tragedy, his heart broke at the whole scene in front of him.

"Oh, Ami, I'm so so sorry, I honestly don't know what to say, I love you, you know that, is there anything I can do for you?" Ami looked up, a watery smile on her face, but it lacked any real joy, her eyes mere shells of the spark they usually held.

"Thank you Kurt, do you think you could keep Elliott tonight? I think we really need a night on our own, and I don't want Elliott to have to see me like this"

"Anything you want, Ami, anything, why don't you two go and kiss Eliott goodbye, I'll get them some dinner and let them watch cartoons or something, and put them both to bed. You two can then go back home and spend some time together, do whatever you need to do, and then come back and get Elliot whenever you're ready tomorrow, okay?"

Ami and D both nodded their heads and thanked Kurt, he brushed their thanks away though, knowing full well they would do the same for him if he were in the same position. Once they had left, he did as he had said and given the kids dinner, letting them watch their favourite cartoon.

When Blaine came home that night, Kurt broke down telling him about their friends, Blaine held him as he cried, letting it all out. He made sure to tuck all three of his kids in extra tight that night, he was so grateful for them, especially when he was reminded how precious they were, and how easily things could go wrong. Even with Elijah's terrible twos, he would always love him to the moon and back.
