"Now listen up!" Sue paces the front of the room, hands clasped behind her back as everyone sits and watches her. "We may have creamed the other two teams at sectionals, though I knew it wouldn't be that hard to beat Schuster and his rushed together group to sing behind the half-breed Barbra wanna-be or the group of juvenile delinquents for the school for reformed boys with criminal records, but now we need to set our sights on Regionals!" Everyone in the room cheers. "We are going to use this holiday season to practice our vocal pipes and make sure that you, the talented Sylvester Starlight's, go all the way and win Nationals gaining a new trophy to add to my already substantial display of national championship trophies, thus proving that Sue Sylvester is a winner at everything she does."

"So what's our first step coach?" Nick asks excitedly.

"Good question!" Sue grins at everyone as she turns to face them. "The first step would be bringing in a secret weapon."

As soon as she's done, the door swings open and Blaine walks in, cheesy grin on his face as everyone looks confused. "Awe man, none of you seem happy to see me." He shrugs his shoulders, Sue trying to hide her enormous smile.

Wes shakes his head. "Sorry, but how can you be our secret weapon when you competed at sectionals?"

"Because I come with a special gift." Blaine runs into the hall, coming back with a laughing Kurt in his arms. "here's our secret weapon. Straight from his latest doctors appointment where he was given a clean bill of health."

Kurt blushes as he rubs over the tiny baby bump. "I just have to watch how active I am with the dancing, stay hydrated," holds up a bottle of Strawberry Watermelon Gatorade. "and remember to eat as often as I can."

"Well, Porcelain, I'm extremely proud to see you recovered and back at school. Now get into a chair before we've got to take you out in a stretcher or something."

"Yes coach."

"Now as I was saying, step one: the return of our secret weapon. Step two: use caroling as practice." Sue paces in front of the group, hands clasped behind her back. "We have performances at the hospital, assisted living facility, Columbus mall, and of course the pack Christmas gathering. Everyone will be featured in at least one song as a solo or a duet and when you get back to school after new years I'll have the competition solos and/or duets chosen. Now lets get to practicing!" She claps her hands together signaling to Wes and Santana to get everyone in place and practicing.

Kurt is ecstatic being back at school and surrounded by his friends. He could live without Blaine hovering around him like a protective mother hen, but given the past few months of his pregnancy he can't fault him for it, not even when Blaine wraps around him in the lunch room almost knocking his food from his hand because the jocks turned to look at them with a funny look. Ok, he can't fault him, but his growl has defiantly gained a sharper bite to it.

"Blaine." Kurt snarls out his mates name as his mate nearly knocks his food from his hands for the third time that week.

Eyebrows knitted, Blaine whines as he moves to his mates side, bottom lip pouted out as his head bows low. "Sorry... I just... you know..."

"I know. Just STOP."Kurt holds his hands up, narrowed eyes turned towards the sorry display beside him. In a way he's glad that his immunity to the kicked puppy look is growing. "I can't have you delaying my food because someone looks at me or points at me. Now, if someone touches me, yes you have permission to go all alpha on their asses, but until then: Let. Me. Eat." His teeth snap at the end in his mates direction before he starts eating, unhappy noises coming from his chest anytime Blaine tries to nuzzle him.

Nick laughs along with Jeff. "Blaine, you need to stop trying to kiss up and just eat. Wolves carrying pups are known to have a harsher bite."

"I know.." Blaine rubs at his arm as he mumbles something about getting to close to those teeth and that temper last night.

Jeff looses it more until Julia smacks the back of his head. "Shut it you." Jeff tries to snuggle and nuzzle up to her wanting forgiveness as she just laughs at his attentions.

"I think we would all learn from watching Blaine. This is what not to do when our mates are with pup." Wes nods, his eyes turned towards Amy as he imagines when they will be patiently awaiting the arrival of their first born.

Amy smiles at the look in her mates eyes, leaning over and kissing his cheek. "I hope the lesson you are learning is to never get between a pregnant wolf when food is involved."

He can't help the blush going up his face as Nick watches all the couples, his own mind filled with Alains upcoming visit and hopefully a future where he can put these lessons to good use. He shakes his head when he catches on that someone has been talking to him. "Huh?"

"You seem to be a bit more quiet and smiley then usual." Jeff throws a fry at his friend. "I asked, what's got you so hyper lately? It can't be our Christmas performances this weekend."

"Maybe it is." Nick grins. "Or it could be someone will be at the performance in Columbus that I can't wait for all of you to meet."

Kurt eyes the hyper boy. "The show on Saturday?"

"Ahuh."

"Well who?" Julia throws one of Jeff's fries at Nick, her fake-mate complaining about his poor fries being wasted.

"Alain." His grin widens when everyone's jaws drop and all eyes are turn towards him. "He's coming in Saturday morning from his interview in New York and staying through New Years before heading to Florida for a beach photo shoot. I think he said something about another shoot in New York, but I'm not really sure."

"So this boy is real?" Wes gets smacks by both Kurt and Amy.

"Of course he's real, why would Nick make up such a beautiful love story about a fake wolf boy?" Amy eyes her mate.

"A boy who is wanting to be his future mate." Kurt sighs, one hand over his heart. "It's romantic."

"He's definitely real. Dads got a scheduled meeting with all the wolves with his crew to welcome them here Friday night, since they'll be in our territory for the next moon." Blaine eats his salad with a smirk on his face as Nick hurriedly moves closer to him. "Back off Nick."

"Friday? He's going to be here tomorrow night?"

"Yes."

"At your place?"

"At my dads, not mine."

"Same thing, your in the backyard." Nick shifts closer causing Kurt to start growling at the other boy getting into his personal space. "Can I come spend the night?"

"No." Kurt snarls.

"Sure." Blaine answers at the same time, turning to make eye contact with Kurt. "Why no Kurt? He can sleep on the couch."

"He's annoying me! I say no." Kurt shows his teeth when Nick wraps an arm around him. "Let. Me. Go."

"Ku~rt! Please! I need to see Alain!" His eyes bat.

Blaine pulls the boy off his mate. "Touching an agitated pregnant Kurt in front of an overly protective mate is NOT a smart thing to do." He adds his own unhappy noises to Kurt's.

"Sorry! Sorry!" Nick backs off and fiddles with his phone, his last text from Alain two weeks old telling him he's on the plane headed to the states. "I just.. It's hard not knowing what we are and knowing he'll be so close..."

"Fine." Kurt eyes the obviously heart broken alpha. "I owe you from this summer and Blaine being all aggressive with you. You can come over, but you need to promise to introduce us. The omega has to be something to catch your eye."

"He is." His face gets all dreamy. "The way he goes at life never letting what he is hold him back." His eyes meet up with Kurt's. "He's a lot like you. Perfect."

Blaine groans showing his teeth to Nick as Kurt grins. "That's it, I have to meet him now. I'll talk to Henry after school and make sure these foreign wolves come have dinner with us." Everyone looks at Kurt as he goes back to eating.

Later that night after changing into simple sweats and taking a nap, Kurt makes his way over to the main house with a whimpering Blaine at his heals.

"Love, please. I just want to snuggle up with you. Can't we talk to dad in the morning?"

"No. I want to talk to him about the guests and check on your mom." Kurt kisses his mates cheek. "Aren't you a bit hyper to see your baby sister?"

"She isn't due for another few weeks."

"I bet she's a new years baby." Kurt opens the side door carefully stepping into the house. "Lillian? Henry?"

"Now that would be awesome." Blaine grins thinking about having a baby around the place for the new year.

"Hey guys." Henry comes out of the kitchen, drying towel in his hands. "We were just sitting down to dinner." He goes over and hugs his son and then Kurt. "Want to join us?"

Blaine has no say in the matter as Kurt lights up at the mention of food. "Yeah, we'll join you." The two Andersons laugh a bit as Kurt hurries Into the dinning room. "Dad, let me help you get the plates?"

"Yeah, come on." Henry wraps his arm around his sons shoulders as they start to compare how Kurt is acting in his second trimester compared to Lillian in her final few weeks. When they come into the dinning room with hands full of plates, both men stop at the sight of two bare round bellies and Lillian talking Kurt through how to properly lotion his growing belly to decrease the amount of stretch marks that are starting to show. "Lillian, hun, what are you doing?"

"What does it look like? I'm teaching Kurt about stretch marks. You know those things I was gifted with during my first pregnancy and have now learned the error of my ways." Lillian rubs her hands over the end of the baby bump where her belly button is sticking out. "Why? Is there something else us preggers should be talking about?"

Blaine keeps his eyes on his mates bared stomach, eyes slowly darkening as his nose flares. "I have no complaints."

"Of course you wouldn't." Henry eyes his son. "You're in the second trimester where hormones go rampant in all the best ways." He moves to put his wife's plate down in front of her. "I'm at the end and have to beg to get attention past rubbing lotion into her legs and feet." He ducks when Lillian swats at him.

Kurt keeps rubbing his belly as his eyes stay on Blaine. "Actually I have something to ask you about Henry." Kurt turns away, teasing Blaine by lowering his shirt, but keeping his hand under it letting his mate see a sliver of skin and causing him to sniff the air and fidget in his seat. "The wolves coming to introduce themselves tomorrow because their spending time in our area?" Henry nods as they all start to eat. "We would like to invite them to dinner at our place."

Lillian coos. "Oh that is so sweet of you!"

"I thought so, plus one of them apparently has the attention of Nick." Kurt grins. "I want to meet this Australians surfer that has the 'I won't mate for a long time' Nick thinking about mating."

"Really?" Henry grins. "That explains why a group of surfers would want to stay here for the holidays. I think I know which one though. The young wolf that called me a while ago to find out about the area and wanted to surprise him with a night out."

"He really called ahead like that?" Blaine squeezes the hand he pulled out of Kurt's shirt so that he could eat instead of be distracted by his mates skin.

"He did, the boys names Alain Kelly. Young, surfer, smart, and seems to have a big interest in making a good impression. There was also a great interest in how our runs go. Apparently he's never really been on a large pack run."

"Tomorrow is going to be so amusing, now how many are there so I know what kind of crowd we'll have in the house." Kurt eats as he happily listens to Henry talk about the group of six wolves. Blaine keeps his eyes on Kurt, eye still dilated and his nose still flaring.

Lillian takes pity on her sons obvious need to be closer to his mate and feigns being extremely tired so that the boys can leave without having to admit their need to be closer. A need they satisfy the second the door closes behind them as they enter the pool house. Blaine lifting and pushing Kurt against the door, mouth firmly attached to his neck.

"Bedroom." Kurt whimpers as he gets a bit uncomfortable squished between them. "Need to lay down."

Blaine pulls back, hearing his mates distress and carries him to the bedroom. "Does it hurt again?"

He nuzzles into Blaine's neck. "Just uncomfortable with the pup between us."

"Guess he's grown a bit to big for us to do things normally hum?" Blaine lays Kurt down before nosing at the aforementioned bump.

"I think we can deal with it." Kurt watches Blaine slip his shirt off so that he can kiss the baby bump easier. "Let me ride you."

"Ugh.." Blaine just shudders before attaching their lips and letting Kurt have his way. Hands gripping at his mates pale thighs as Kurt finds his pleasure moving his hips and crying out every time he sinks down and feels the sparks of their union fly through his body. Crying out when he feels the knot take hold and they both shiver through their completions. Bodies snuggling close after Blaine cleans them both up, sleep coming fast as their arms join over their growing pup.

School the next day has Kurt laughing so hard inside he's afraid his water might break. Nick has been goading him with plans to woo the young ausie. Foods he wants to help make, outfits he should wear, and if he should invite him out for a walk after or before they eat. He comes up with so many different combinations of food and clothes with or with out walking that Blaine snaps his jaws and tells him to be at their place by 6pm and that he was going to pick to the food with no questions asked.

"But Blaine!"

"No 'But Blaine'! I told you to stop with all these ideas! The whole day has been about Chicken or Sausage or pizza mixed with blue shirts or green shirts or print shirts and by god I've had enough!" Blaine glares at his friend. "Just go home and get your bag while Kurt and I go and get what we are feeding our guests for dinner."

"I vote pizza." Kurt chews on some twizzlers. "Cheese, mushrooms, onions, peppers, pepperoni, sausage, pineapple, anchovies, skittles, and maybe some pickles. Oh God that sounds good!" He turns to a group of gagging teens. "Blaine, I want that pizza. I don't care what kind you guys have, but I want that exact pizza."

Wes puts a comforting hand on Blaine's shoulder. "I think you guys are having pizza. Have strength friend, his cravings have to end eventually."

Blaine slowly nods. "In six months..."

"Blaine, stop talking and get to moving." He walks over, nibbling on his mates ear. "I want alone time with you before our place is full and we have pizzas to order." Kurt moves away swaying his hips as he walks to the door, making sure his scent is strong enough to leave no doubt in Blaine's mind what he's in for at home.

"Right. See you in a couple hours Nick!" He follows like the good mate that he is.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX

As he stretches out his back, yawning while his body slowly wakes up, Alain wonders who's bright idea it was to drive from New York, NY to Lima, OH. Such a long drive with so many pretty useless pit stops to see odd American gimmicks that he hopes is worth it. Well he knows it's worth it, Nick and he have been talking ever since summer and he hasn't been happier.

"Hey, how much longer Rusty?" A young dirty blond boy with a blue kerchief tied around his head leans forward towards the driver assigned to them by the sports association.

"Not much longer." The tattooed man looks in his review mirror at all of them. "Just looking for the right street and then it should be a few minutes after that."

"Good. Could really use a run. So not use to being caged this long." Jesse side eyes Alain, knowing its his fault they have all been in this van so long.

"Dun look at me like that you dill." Alain huffs his dislike towards the older wolf. "We spent longer in an Airplane from Oz to New York."

"Yeah but this trip isn't even needed!" Jesse glares at the snow falling outside.

"So thinks you. You could have stayed with everyone else in New York if you really wanted too."

"Hey, how 'bout you two just stop fighting. We promise gramps we would all meet this alpha, and meet him we will." Fergus glares Jesse, his identical twin. The only difference between them being his purple and black dyed hair.

"Fergus is right mate." Andy wraps his arm around his mate, burying his nose in his neck. "This dude has little Alain all gooey eyed and I think we are all curious what kind of wolf could do that."

"Jesse, just chill alright?" Nathan ruffles his friends hair. "This gives you a chance to be the big protective brother you've always wanted to be."

Jesse swats his hand away. "Yeah right. Just cause my gramps took in the stray doesn't mean he's my brother."

"No, means he's your younger uncle."

Alain smiles. "I'm more a younger brother."

"Best lil' bro ever." Fergus pounces on him and starts to tickle his sides as the driver pulls up in front of the Anderson house. Alain bursting out laughing as he's held down by Andy and Scotty while Fergus continues his attack.

Jesse getting out of the car and ducking just in time as a snowball aimed at Blaine by Nick misses its target. "Watch it!"

"I'm so sorry!" Blaine is laughing as he goes over to the new arrivals. "Nick has horrible aim." They both jolt when a snow ball hits Blaine in the back of his head.

"But I don't." Kurt grins as he dusts the snow off of his baby bump. "Paybacks a bitch, never team up against your mate in a snow fight dear. You will lose." He offers his hand as the van starts to empty of laughing teens. "Hi, Kurt Hummel, it's a pleasure to meet all of you."

Scotty slips in to take Kurt's hand first. "Nice to meet you. I'm Scotty, this angry sort here is Jesse." Scotty wraps his arms around his friend messing his hair up.

"I'm Nathan." A much taller blond offers his hand.

"Andy." A light brown haired boy offers his hand. "This is my soul match, Fergus." He pulls the boy against his side kissing his cheek. "and this is his lil' bro, Alain."

Alain almost shakes Kurt's hand when his eyes widen at a covered from head to toe Nick makes his way over to the group. "That was really uncalled for Kurt! I didn't even hit you with a snow ball, HE did!" Nick freezes when he sees Alain. "You made it?"

"Yeah. I didn't think I'd see you till tomorrow." he runs over wrapping Nick into a cuddly hug, letting the older boy wrap his arms around him and sniff his hair to get reacquainted with his scent. A slight hint of wolf and a major scent of the ocean that does a good job hiding that certain smell of Alain being an omega.

Kurt coos. "Well that is Nick and this is my mate, Blaine. Now let's get you boys inside, Henry is all ready to meet you and then Blaine and I are going to offer you dinner if you'd like to stick around. We live in back of Blaine's parents house." Kurt goes on to explain the pool house as he leads everyone inside, happily playing host. Nick and Alain bringing up the rear as Alain talks about how their trip is going so far and Nick just listens, never taking his hand off of the boy.

Lillian and Henry meet them all in the living room and everyone sits around talking and sharing stories about the pack back home and the Ohio pack. Even Rusty, their human chaperone joins in the stories. They even order the pizza to the big house, Kurt happily sharing his unusual pizza choice with Lillian ignoring the disgusted faces they get every time one of them takes a bite. Alain stays snuggled into Nick as they take turns feeding each other while Blaine, Fergus, and Andy smile at how adorable they are.

"So boys, where are you all staying?" Henry takes a bite of his pizza.

Rusty wipes his face. "We have a reservation at Comfort Inn. We booked a whole floor since the rest of the crew is flying in tomorrow."

"The crew?" Blaine looks at him a bit confused.

"Yeah, one of our shoots had to be postponed due to construction an' when we told out agent about the trip here, he booked some time at one of the schools so that we could use their pool and grounds." Nathan grabs another piece.

Scotty nods. "They are having us wear a few new board shorts from Rip Curl, some skater clothes. Not really sure. I know they have lots of stuff for us to wear and boards to pose with in and out of the water."

"Wow." Nick looks down at Alain sitting against his chest. "Do you get to keep any of it?"

"Sometimes. Jesse, Andy, and I are sponsored so we get Rip Curl products." He looks up at Nick, blushing when he realizes how close they really are.

Unable to pull his eyes away, Nick noses at Alains neck cheek. "Do you know what school the shoots at?"

His head nods slowly, Jesse growling in the background at how forward Nick is being with Alain since the last time he checked his little brother wasn't claimed. "McKinley." he gets a mischievous look on his face. "I may have dropped the name of your school to my agent."

"Little minx." he runs one of his hands through the end of Alains ponytail until the boys pulled out of his arms and causing him to snarls at Jesse sitting Alain down on the couch.

"Hands off. Gramps told us to protect him and since no one else seems to be stepping in I am." he sends his own growl back at Nick. Scotty and Andy try to calm Jesse down while Blaine and Henry attempt to sooth Nick's nerves. "Lay off! Fergus, am I the only one seeing the boy as moving in to close on him?"

"I don't think Alain was to upset about being held, Jesse. " Fergus stands up moving closer to his mate to help ease his own nerves at all the tension in the air. "He's 15, you know he came here to make a choice and we shouldn't get in his way."

"But Gramps..."

"But Gramps knows Alain is smart enough to make his own choices, that's how he was raised."

"Both of you stop it!" Alain sends his own growl out causing everyone to quiet down. "Gramps only said that you two should watch out for me if I didn't like him and trust me. I like him." His eyes shift to Nick. "I have no plans to mate until I'm 18, but if the next couple weeks go as well as tonight I don't know. Maybe that plan will change." He turns to the Andersons, putting on his most charming grin. "I think staying here for at least tonight would be great. We were going to the Christmas performance at the Columbus mall tomorrow and it would be easier to go with you blokes then try and find it on our own."

"Lets get you boys all settled in then." Lillian shuffles about trying to get up thanking Andy and Henry as they give her a hand. "Rusty, are you staying as well?"

"I should, but the reservations need to be checked in with the crew coming in at odd times. Think you guys can watch out for them? Though secretly, I think their capable of taking care of themselves." he laughs with Henry on that one. "Just look at them, five of them are 17 and then Alain at 15. I just don't see him getting into trouble. Let me just leave my cell number incase you need to get a hold of me." he goes off with Henry to exchange contact information while Lillian shows the boys to the guest rooms.

Taking their leave, Blaine and Kurt drag Nick out of the house and towards their place. Their friend complaining and begging for them to let Alain stay with them as well. Rolling his eyes, Blaine pushes his friend out the side door. "Come on lover boy. You'll see him in the morning."

"But you heard him! He likes me!"

"Yes we did hear him and now it's night, night time. We have a concert tomorrow and Kurt needs extra sleep."

"You two just want to hump and make me suffer listening."

"We are not going to hump."

"Doubt that's the truth. Why can't you just let me have Alain stay with us and he'll keep me distracted from your grunts and moans."

"Ewe. We don't grunt."

"I beg to differ. I seem to remember a lot of grunting sex noises this summer."

A loud groan stops both of them as Kurt storms back into the main house, coming back with a laughing Alain. "Not hanky panky, he's still under age."

"Sweet! Your mate is the best!" Nick pulls a still laughing Alain into his arms and nuzzling him as they head to the pull out sofa.

"Now go to sleep!" Kurt shuffles his way to the kitchen grabbing a snack before making his way to the bedroom. "Blaine don't even kick that boy out if you want to get lucky anytime soon!"

"On my way sweetie kin's!" He eyes the other two wolves. "Be good. Nick knows his way around if you need anything. Sorry I'm being a bit rude but hormonal mates are a worse then a rabid squirrel on coffee." He runs off after his mate.

"They are the sweetest soul match ever." His eyes meet Nicks as he grabs his sleep clothes. "I'm just going to change and use the bathroom." He slowly goes towards where Nick points out the bathroom. Both boys taking turns changing before snuggling up with happy grins on their faces.

Early the next morning as more snow falls outside, Blaine lets out a sleepy whimper as he feels Kurt rubbing back against him. He doesn't even open his eyes as his hands grip those wonderful hips. "Morning." He rolls his hips, meeting the next backwards grind.

"Need you."

"Not even a 'good morning love' or 'love you so much' nothing?" He pushes his mates night pants down.

"Oh sweet love of my life," Kurt groans when he feels that perfect hand grab his manhood. "need you so bad it hurts." All he gets in response is a possessive sounds from deep in Blaine's chest before he's filled with pure pleasure and their bodies slowly rock together.

Alain laughs quietly as the creaking sounds get louder. "I think their having a good morning."

"This is so reminding me of this summer."

"Oh?" Alain shifts so that he can look Nick in the eyes.

"Their first time, the bond initiation?"

"Yeah."

"Happened on our annual camping trip. I had to listen to them while getting everything packed up the next morning."

"Sounds like your summer was like mine. Fergus and Andy mated while we were out on a surf retreat." He gets a bit of a sad look in his eyes. "That weekend got all of us into so much trouble, but seeing them together..."

"The surf accident with their half-breed older brother was that same weekend?"

He nods his head slowly. "Fergus blamed himself for it and then getting yelled at for them breaking tradition was even worse. I was glad he had a mate to comfort him and bring him through all that shit. So what if they didn't do a two year agreement with scent rings? It's their choice and the pack leader knows it."

As he's about to ask about the scent rings , the moans emanating from the bedroom get even louder and both boys just burst out laughing. "Lets get out of here. We can score food and quiet in the main house." That's exactly what they do. Both quickly getting dressed and then heading over to the main house, giving Kurt and Blaine knowing looks when the pair finally make their way over with a deep blush heavy on their cheeks and Blaine trying to explain that they will leave for the mall in an hour.

At noon when the Starlight's take the stage, singing in their red and green suits and dresses and the crowd cheers, Alain feels a sense of pride seeing the wolf he's pretty sure is destined to be with him for the rest of their lives sings and dances to the cheers of the crowd. His good mood only dieing when Jesse snatches his left hand.

"See he didn't lay his claim."

Snatching his hand out of his the other boys hand with a bit of a warning growl. "They don't do scent rings here, plus all we did was sleep and talk."

"Like I believe that. You reek of him and he doesn't have the balls to put his ring on you."

"Jesse, just leave me alone alright? We still have two weeks to decide what our intentions are towards each other."

"Just don't piss away your career over some dom."

He watches Jesse walk away, changing from his intimidating self to a laughing happy wolf while he talks to Nathan and Scotty. Henry wrapping an arm around the shivering omega. "If you need to talk, I'm here."

"Just need some advice on getting an over protective older brother to let you grow up and make your own life choices."

"Lets go get some coffee and see what we can come up with." Henry leads Alain to where they can sit and talk while still hearing the concert. The young wolf opening up to the pack leader about the pressure he's under to declare himself to someone by exchanging scent rings, a special ring that you put a drop of your blood into and give it to your intended so that other wolves can see and smell that you're claimed without being in a bond allowing omegas to finish school and live life like a normal person instead of being sheltered from unwanted claims. How Alain was hoping Nick would be the one, but he's scared to make that commitment after knowing him for such a short amount of time.
