Author's Notes: OSL
Slivers of dust speckled light filtered through the gap in the curtains, falling onto the slumbering bodies sprawled on the bed. Soft snores punctuated the otherwise silent house. The soft morning light graced Kurt's features with an almost ethereal glow while he nuzzled against Blaine's neck in his sleep and shifted closer to him. The movement woke Blaine, his eyes opening blearily, his head turning to gaze at his husband. A smile brightened his face and he gently disentangled himself from Kurt. The process took a good five minutes and the minute Blaine stood up Kurt wrapped himself around the pillow Blaine had just vacated.
Blaine quietly made his way downstairs and began preparing Kurt's surprise breakfast. Today was Kurt's 30th birthday and Blaine had been planning for weeks. In half an hour Mercedes would be over to take Four year old Callie and two year old Thomas out for the day, they would both be stopping over for the night, giving Kurt and Blaine a little time to themselves. They would then have big family celebrations tomorrow, with the whole tribe over. Blaine busied himself making the same pancake mix that Kurt had shown him how to cook in college before going back upstairs to rouse their children. He woke Callie first, knowing she was quiet when she first woke up anyway. When he woke Thomas up he held a finger to his lips.
"Shhh, Daddies still sleeping." Thomas' eyes went wide and he nodded over exaggeratingly. Blaine got both of them washed and dressed and packed their bags, keeping them both as quiet as possible. They were just eating bowls of cereal when Mercedes arrived. She kissed Blaine on the cheek and greeted both children with hugs and asked if they were excited for the day.
"Daddy says we're going to the park!" Callie was practically bouncing in her seat.
"He's right, then we're going to go play with Auntie Rachel and Uncle Finn... sound good?" Thomas put his spoon down and motioned with grabby hands stretched out to Blaine.
"What's up little man?" He picked his son up and held him close, Thomas wrapping his little arms around Blaine's neck. Thomas whispered to his Dad.
"Of course you can take Mr Bun with you, Auntie 'Cedes won't mind." He looked to Mercedes who stood and reached for Thomas.
"Shall we go find Mr Bun and put him in the car ready?" Thomas nodded and scampered out of Blaine's arms and upstairs unsteadily. Mercedes' chuckled.
"He's not quite got used to the stairs then? Boy, you gotta get Kurt on that, he had Callie up and down stairs like a pro in a week!" Blaine laughed.
"I know, he's going to take next week off and spend some time with both of them." The little family cleared up and Blaine hugged both of his children tightly, kissing them both and saying goodbye. He watched Mercedes load them into the car, bucling them into their car seats and waved them off until they were out of sight. He returned to the kitchen, putting together a tray full of pancakes and various fruits, apple juice and coffee before carefully carrying it upstairs to his husband. Kurt was still sleeping peacefully, so Blaine set the tray on the bedside table and sat on the bed, running a hand through Kurt's hair, noting as he did so the faint grey hairs starting to show around his hairline. Kurt began to stir, opening sleep encrusted eyes.
"Hmmm, Blaine?" His voice was thick with sleep.
"Morning gorgeous, I brought you breakfast." Kurt's eyes fell on the tray and he sat up a little more awake.
"Thank you baby, you didn't have to..."
"I wanted to. It's not everyday your husband turns thirty now is it?" Blaine grabbed the tray and settled it on the bed between them, picking up a rasberry and pressing it to Kurt's lips gently. Kurt accepted the fruit and smiled warmly.
"The kids are with 'Cedes all day, she's taking them to the park then to Finn's and they're stopping over. I thought we could pop and see them this afternoon. Other than that we have the whole day to do whatever you want." Blaine ate a strawberry and handed Kurt the coffee, which he accepted gratefully.
"Mmm sounds good. You've been plotting haven't you." Kurt pointed an accusatory finger at Blaine, but the twinkle in his eyes said he didn't mind one bit.
"I have, and it's all for your benefit. Now birthday boy, what would you like to do first?" Kurt thought for a moment before answering.
"I think I'd like to cuddle with my husband without worrying about kids hyperactive after their Dad fed them chocolate for breakfast..." Blaine pouted adorably.
"That was one time..." Nevertheless he moved the now dessicated breakfast tray to the bedside table and snuggled under the covers with Kurt once more. They stayed like that in companionable silence for a few minutes, just enjoying the quiet that had become such a rarity since their decision to start a family.
"So what else have to planned for today?" Kurt kept his voice quiet as though if he spoke any louder, the tranquil atmosphere would shatter.
"Well, I pretty much figured we could stay here for a bit, then I've booked a table for lunch rather than dinner because I thought we could spend the evening here, I'll cook, of course, and we can just be together." He looked a little nervous, like Kurt would reject his carefully planned day. Kurt just smiled happilr, carding his fingers through Blaine's curls.
"That sounds perfect." Blaine beamed from ear to ear and let Kurt wrap him up in his strong arms.
"Thank you baby."
