Chapter 11

Kurt

I wasnt sure who was more nervous about telling my parents, me or Blaine. Blaine had asked my fathers permission to propose. He didnt tell my dad when he was doing it though. I knew my dad could be intimidating, even if he was just a teddy bear underneath. I walked up to the front door holding Blaines hand. "Here goes nothing.", I thought.

Blaine

Kurt and I had decided to tell everyone at dinner this evening. Finn was with Rachel at her dads house. So by the end of the night he would know about the engagement too. Burt and I were in the living room watching a Buckeyes game, and Kurt was helping Carole in the kitchen. Every now and then Burt would stare at me really hard, like he was trying to read my mind. It was kind of scary. "Kurt, please hurry!" I thought.

Burt

I laughed to myself as I turned back to the screen again. The kid was so fun to tease. I enjoyed watching him squirm. I knew that he had popped the question. They didnt have to tell me. I could tell by how happy Kurt had seemed. That and I had seen the outline of the ring through his gloves. "Oh, this is gonna be fun!" I thought, chuckling to myself.

Carole

I had noticed the ring the second Kurt had taken his gloves off. I smiled at Kurt

"Thats a very nice ring honey.", I said. Kurt blushed. "Does it mean what I think it means?" I asked excitedly.

"Yes, Blaine proposed.", he said happily. I squealed, and hugged him.

"Im so happy for you, sweetheart!", I said smiling, "Your dad will be happy too." I added. He smiled "I hope so Carole, I hope so."

Kurt

Finally it was dinner time. After everyone was seated around the table. I cleared my throat to get everyones attention.

"Dad, Carole.", I said, "Blaine and I have some news." Carole smiled at me encouragingly.

"While we were in New York, Blaine proposed, and I accepted.", I said happily. I looked at my dad. His face was one of his grumpy faces and I started biting my bottom lip in worry.

"Dad?", I asked timidly. His face softened, "Im happy for you Kurt. I just wish I had gotten to see the proposal."

"I had Sam tape it, so everyone could see it.", Blaine said softly. I smiled at him softly. You know I think Maria VonTrapp had it right, "Somewhere in my youth or childhood I must have done something good..... Something very damn good."
