He was staring out the window into the dark of four am, absentmindedly tracing circled with his thumb on Blaines hand on the console between them. He watched as the drove through the North Carolina country side and counted the horses. One, a gray pinto. Two, another pinto. Come to think of it, they all seemed to be pintos. Or quarter horses of some kind. Kurt longed to see a mustang, running free. Much like he'd always wanted to be. And strange as it may sound, being pregnant was the most freeing thing he'd ever felt.

Blaine watched his lover out of the corner of his eye in peripheral vision.

He looked deep in thought, as he did most of the time lately. Sometimes he would tell Blaine what he was thinking about, other timed he would just brush it off. He thought a lot about the baby, or about how their lives would be when he got here. But if it didn't relate to the baby Kurt usually wouldn't tell him, putting it off as nothing. Most of the time Blaine would just let him have his privacy, but if he looked really troubled about it Blaine would coax Kurt into telling him.

he squeezed Kurts hand and looked over for a moment, and smiled at Kurt,

"I love you. Both of you."

Collin felt his belly. The little bump that told him his babies were growing. They were all setting up for Kurt and Blaine to get back. Which meant all laundry done, no crumbs from Finn and Dave around, healthy food in the fridge, and Burt de-pizza scented. Then they would be ready.

but Collin was fidgety. He had an uneasiness about him. He felt like something was wrong, and it scared him.

Kurt watched as the sun seem to follow them above the tree tops. Blaine was still refusing to let him drive and Kurt was a little sick of being patronized. Sure Blaine was coming from a good place with it, but he wasn't helpless. He looked over at Blaine and got an idea,

"Love. Could you stop at that gas station and get me some Doritos?" he asked in his sweetest voice and batted his lashes. And wallah, they're pulling over. Blaine parks a good distance from the gasoline to prevent Kurt from having to breathe it and leaves the keys in the ignition and goes to retrieve what he believes to be craving chips.

but as he sees Blaine disappear into the store Kurt unhooks his seat belt and hobbles over to the drivers side and hooks himself back in, then adjust the seat to accommodate his belly.

when Blaine gets back to the car he opens the drivers side door and sees Kurt smiling innocently.

"what do you think you're doing?"

"driving. Get in."
