It was finally the weekend after Blaine's first busy week at McKinley. The amazing week had passed and Blaine still couldn't get over the amount of time he got to spend with Kurt. They would eat lunch with the other glee club members, got to sing together all the time and it even turned out they were in some classes together! Maybe the move was getting on top of Blaine a little by the end of the week considering getting shoved in to a locker almost daily was not a routine thing for him. But he still enjoyed his time at the public school so far. The week had been filled with singing and home work after school. No time for alone time with each other the last week, Kurt and Blaine had vowed to spend all weekend together with no friends or homework for distractions.
"Morning beautiful." Blaine ran his fingers through Kurt's soft hair to wake him gently. A warm smile slid across Blaine's face when Kurt opened his eyes slowly adjusting to the light in the room.
"Goomorming." Kurt mumbled still half asleep, but it didn't stop him snuggling closer to his boyfriend. Blaine laughed a bit as Kurt immersed himself in the blanket wrapped around his small body and settled to sleep again.
"Come on sleepy head! We have a full day planned remember? And it's already..10am!"
"Fine fine!" Kurt lifted his head up to meet his boyfriend's beautiful eyes. They just stared at each other for a few moments, taking in each other's scents, looks, and just letting them feel the love they have for each other.
"I love you."
"I love you too." Blaine pressed a kiss to the top of the younger boys head and gave him one last squeeze. "But come on we have to get up!" He climbed across his body on the bed and tickled him a little to persuade him out of bed.
"Hey no fair!" Complained Kurt while covering himself in the bed sheets.
The usual routine happened that morning that they had fallen in to over the past month or so. Blaine would get up and take a shower while Kurt had an extra 10 minutes in bed, before they would both fight for the mirror to get themselves ready in the morning. It worked out well that Blaine was a morning showerer and Kurt was an evening. Otherwise it would have resorted in very early mornings! "Blaine Anderson! Have you even bothered to do your hair this morning?" Was the first thing Kurt had expressed to his boyfriend on arrival in the kitchen. As usual Kurt was downstairs making breakfast for the two boys.
"Yes of course I have!" Blaine picked up his bowl of Lucky Charms left on the counter by Kurt for him.
"Come here, I'm not letting you out of the house like this!" Kurt began to play around with the soft curls on Blaine's head, each chocolate brown hair twined with his fingers, and it made him melt a little inside.
"Hello boys." Burt entered the kitchen and sat on the table with his news paper. Once Kurt had finished playing around with Blaine's hair they both took their seats at the table to join him. "So what do you have planned for today?"
"We were going to go to the mall for a little while, then try that new Italian place for lunch and maybe catch a movie." Kurt explained the boy's plans to his father. It was a good thing Blaine had plenty of savings and money still coming in from his parents, it was his treat today.
"Sound's great boy's. Well don't forget our BBQ tonight Kurt, Aunt Louise is coming round, and grandma and grandpa." Blaine's eyes widened.
"Was that today? Oh god I didn't even realize! Blaine are you okay?"
"I haven't met your family yet." Blaine's eyes remained wide and he had pushed his bowl away from him, something Blaine never did.
"You'll be fine sweetie!" A warm hand got placed on Blaine's leg. "Don't worry! They'll love you! That means Chris and the kids are coming too! Remember my cousin Chris? They loved you! My Aunt, grandma and grandpa won't be any different!"
"If you say so..."
Both boys threw themselves in to the car at the end of their long day together. They had vowed that tomorrow would be a day of relaxing in the sun in the back yard because after today they deserved a rest. Still it was not over. They headed out of the house at half 10 that morning and hit the mall, Blaine had spoiled Kurt as usual for their shopping trips and bought him a jumper and some shoes he had been wanting for a while, and obviously Blaine bought a couple (meaning 6) new books for himself in the book store. The 3 hour shopping trip was topped with a romantic lunch at the new Italian which was amazing! Then both boys endured a romantic comedy at the movies, which was really just an excuse for Blaine to keep his arm around Kurt for as long as possible. It had reached the end of the day when both agreed they were too tired to continue and decided to head home to face the family for the next 4 hours.
"Kurt I'm still nervous about meeting more of your family." Blaine confided in Kurt as he drove back to their home.
"Don't worry! You'll be fine! There's still going to be my dad, Carole, Finn, Rachel and me around! You're not going to be alone! And you get to meet my Aunt Louise! I love her so much!"
"Is that the one that calls you every few days?"
"It sure is! So you've spoke to her over the phone before, seriously honey it's not a big deal!" Blaine pulled up outside the house and turned the car off, he looked at Kurt. "We can get out you know!" Kurt chuckled looking at his vulnerable boyfriend. "It looks like everyone's here!" He scanned the drive way for cars he recognised.
"Right! I can do this! I'm ready!" It was very unusual for Blaine to get himself so worked up like he was doing. He was always laid back, dapper, calm. But once he got mention of meeting new people, especially new people Kurt cared so much for, he got scared. It was the worry that he wouldn't be accepted in to the family. Because now, they were all he had.
They both climbed out of Blaine's BMW and Kurt went to grasp Blaine's hand before entering their home. "We're home." Kurt stepped in first and looked around the living room. A few people were sat in there, mainly his cousin Chris' children. "Hey guys! Where's everyone else?" All the young children pointed to the kitchen and outside where Kurt realized they would be. Kurt never let go of his timid boyfriends hand as he lead him through the house he already knew so well.
"Kurt! You're home!" Kurt's grandmother stood from her chair at the table to greet her grandson.
"Hi grandma!" Kurt hugged his grandma and stood back with a large grin spread across his face. "Grandma, this is Blaine. My boyfriend." Kurt felt so proud to say it. His favourite people in the whole world were stood in the same room together. He could proudly say he had a boyfriend without fear of judgement.
"Oh hello dear! We've heard so much about you! I hear you've moved in here now." Mrs Hummel commented shaking Blaine's already shaking hand.
"Yes Mrs Hummel I have, it's so lovely to finally get to meet you." Blaine was a charmed; he could literally charm anyone that set their eyes on him. He was especially good with parents and families; there was something about him that just made him very likeable. Kurt took notice that only Carole and his grandmother were in the kitchen preparing salad and other cold foods.
"Where's everyone else?"
"In the garden dear, your fathers outside cooking, Chris, Louise and your grandpa are out there." Carole informed the boys as Blaine was once again being dragged outside to meet the other family members.
"Kurtsie!" A woman with fairly long brown hair bellowed from across the garden. She stood and made her way over, Blaine noticed she was clearly pregnant and wondered why Kurt never mentioned anything to him.
"Aunt Louise! Look how big you've gotten! Not long now till my little girl's going to be here!" Kurt cooed at his auntie as they hugged and Kurt took notice of her huge stomach.
"I know Kurtsie! One more month and she'll be here for you to dress up!" They both laughed at probably an inside joke both had shared on one of their many phone conversations. "And you must be the famous Blaine! So nice to put a face to the voice finally!" The woman took hold of Blaine's arms and pulled him in to yet another hug. His first thought of the woman was that she was gorgeous. She was easily 15 years younger than Burt, but he knew they were definitely siblings.
"It's lovely to meet you to Louise!" Blaine took in everyone else in the garden. On the swinging chair sat Finn and Rachel. Finn's long arms wrapped around her and she was sitting comfortably swinging with him. He next saw Chris and his wife Ashley. The parents to the 3 children sat in the lounge playing video games. Blaine had already met these people before so they were a lot less intimidating to him. The last person he panned around to was a much older man, sat by Burt who was cooking on the BBQ. He didn't look as scary as he first imagined him to be, he was just an older version of Burt. Someone Blaine had become increasingly comfortable around, except for a few slip ups of 'Mr Hummel'.
The older man got up and made his way to the teenage boys stood by the doors. "You must be Blaine." He held out his hand and Blaine took it within his own. "I've heard a lot about you. Welcome to the family." He winked at Blaine and turned his back returning to his seat. Welcome to the family. Blaine kept replaying that sentence over and over in his mind. He had found a place to belong, a place people loved him for whole he was and he could be himself. A place where he could love Kurt unconditionally because that's what he felt when he was around him, unconditional love.
"See I told you he wasn't that bad." Kurt grabbed Blaine's waist. Not noticing the tears fill in his eyes. Blaine looked at Kurt, feeling a sudden rush of emotion poor over him. He didn't care who was looking at him, what people thought about him. He didn't care because for the first time in his life he had been accepted in to a family.
Kurt noticed the tears filling the older boys eyes. Drowning out the hazel colour and turning it light. Kurt pulled him in to a hug where one of Blaine's tears set free. "Thank you." He whispered in to Kurt's ear.
