It was 4 months in to the pregnancy when Kurt and Blaine realized that they couldn't welcome their daughter's home to their downtown apartment. Yes, it was big enough to house 2 adults and 2 babies, but it wasn't a home. It was to Kurt and Blaine, but not for little children.
They entire house had white carpets and white hard wood floors, all the furniture was designer and everything had a place, and unless being used was always in its place. Except Blaine's office, this was full of school work and instruments along with dozens of pieces of sheet music because he still had to write one more song for his album that was set to drop in under a year.
But other than that they lived in a very adult apartment. Plus the also lived on the top floor of an apartment building, two crying babies would definitely wake their elder neighbors and it was a long ways up from the lobby. So in short they decided they need to buy a house.
It didn't take very long either and they really didn't have a long time to waste looking for the perfect house, Brittany was already 4 months pregnant, so on top of decorating and accessorizing an entire house Kurt would have to do his daughters nurseries as well. But he was Kurt so he knew he could do it.
The house they found and fell in love with was beautiful. It had a large front yard with a single cherry tree in the middle like the ones at Dalton. The house was large and covered entirely in light beige bricks. The porch stretched from one end of the house all the way around to the back yard which was also huge and housed an in-ground pool compete with a diving board and Jacuzzi. It even conveniently had a fence around the pool to keep toddlers away and safe from drowning.
The inside was beautiful as well, it was a new construction and had a fairly sized stairway going upstairs in the ground foyer, the house had a large brand new kitchen which Kurt fell in love with immediately. They had a formal dining room off the large hallway and an eating area in the kitchen for everyday meals.
They had a living room, family room, a large finished basement which they planned on turning into a play room for the girls, two offices, 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. One master-bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a balcony overlooking the back yard. Then there were two matching rooms with en-suite bathrooms that would be the girl's rooms. And there were still two bedrooms left. One Kurt was going to turn into a guest room and the other they decided to turn into a music room, which would eventually include a small stage and a piano.
It was perfect for them, it wasn't so big that you wouldn't know what to do with yourself, but it was big enough to know that you were well off if you lived there. And they were, they were in love, legally married which is something that they only dreamed of in their wildest dreams, they had two daughters on the way. A surrogate, they know and love and will be forever grateful to and now they had to perfect place to build their family.
The weekend after their purchase was finalized they started moving their things in. They got all their things moved in that weekend then set to painting and decorating the whole house. They decided to paint the nurseries a dark pink and light green with black polka dots all over the pink to resemble watermelon. They were so cute that whenever people came over they almost melted from the cuteness.
They painted their room and inviting lavender with silver accents and the rest of the house neutral browns, blues and yellows. Except the music room which was painted a bright red. Their dreams were slowly starting to become a reality.
PAGE BREAK
Kurt and Blaine were walking down the crib aisle of 'things for offspring.' It was a new boutique downtown that Kurt and Blaine wanted to look at. Brittany was now 8 months pregnant and they still had to find cribs and accessories for the nurseries. Since they moved into the house and started painting and renovating they wanted to leave getting the nurseries items until the house was finished. It took 4 months but they were finally finished. As they walked hand in hand down the aisle they got admiring gazes from the staff who knew them quite well, because although they wanted to wait to get the accessories for the nursery Blaine never said Kurt couldn't get clothes. Blaine was pretty sure that Kurt had bought them so much clothes that they would have to get another closet for each of them. But this quirk was something that made Blaine fall in love with him more every single day.
"Hey babe look at this one!" said Blaine pointing to a white crib crafted with wood and covered in white and pink paint. The posts were crafted with flowers and it was stunning, Blaine had never really been into home fashioning, that was always Kurt's thing but something about baby furniture just brought out the most flaming of his qualities.
"Oh honey," Kurt had a few tears in his eyes "it's beautiful, can we get this one?"
"Of course love, that is why we came here right?" Blaine chucked and kissed Kurt's forehead. He swung his arm over Kurt's shoulder as they made their way over to an assistant to get two of the cribs.
Once they got to the assistant he wrote down which cribs they wanted and promised that they would be delivered later that day. Kurt thanked him and handed him his credit card, Blaine had a matching one in his wallet but he loved when Kurt was the manlier one and paid for things.
They headed out to Blaine's car and drove back to their home on 1630 Cohoe Street Eastern New York.
"Hey love, when do we have to be at Rachel's tomorrow for the baby shower?" asked Blaine.
"She said to be there around 1, they have to go to Elizabeth's god mothers for brunch, then she said she needed time to set up, Why?" replied Kurt idly stroking Blaine's thumb hand with his thumb from his hand entwined with Blaine's on the center council.
"I was just wondering if we had anytime to sleep in?" said Blaine hoping Kurt would take his hint. They had both been super busy that week with work. They were both trying to finish something's up before Brittany had the babies because they both decided that Blaine would be quitting his music teaching job until the girls got a little older, and Kurt would also take two months off after they were born so all the responsibility wasn't left on Blaine because they were equals in their marriage.
"Oh," said Kurt, taking Blaine's not-so-subtle hint, "I think we can work something out." He gave his husband's hand a quick squeeze. They went home for a long awaited night to be just the two of them, no stress or worry or anxiousness, just pure love.
PAGE BREAK
The next day as planned the husbands slept in after an exhausting but amazing night, and just managed to make it too Rachel's in time for the baby shower. When they got there they found all old New Directions in Rachel and Finn's backyard. This was a big surprise because Quinn and Artie had moved to Paris after they got married and Lauren and Puck lived in Washington where they both had careers as lawyers. Mike and Tina lived in Nevada where Mike worked in Cirque du Solé and Tina was an investment broker and part-time performer. Sam lived in Australia where he was a performer and where he met his wife and had children. Even though they had all gone separate ways, except for Finn, Rachel, Kurt, Blaine, Brittany and Santana who had all moved to New York, they were all here in New York to celebrate Blaine and Kurt's child. It was moments like these that made them realize why they loved each and every one of their friends so much.
After a long session of catching up and reminiscing about their high school days which were long over they finally settled down enough for presents to begin.
Kurt and Brittany opened most of them occasionally letting Blaine open one or two. But Blaine was having so much fun watching his gorgeous husband and the mother of his children that he couldn't care less.
Once it was all said and done, Kurt and Blaine had everything they needed for when the little ones came home. Rachel, Finn and Elizabeth gave them matching watermelon bed sets for the twin's cribs and a bottle warmer. Quinn, Artie and their daughters Sophia and Grace gave them special diapers from Europe which Kurt got a little too excited over and they got them an all you need kit which included baby wash, lotion, powder and numerous other things. Mike and Tina got them an assortment of little things they would need and a humidifier shaped like a butterfly which matched their daughters. Their son who was 8 wanted to give his new cousins something special so he got them each a small pink fuzzy teddy bear. Puck and Lauren got them a box of condoms as a joke about using them to not get pregnant next time; they also got both girls matching necklaces. And Sam gave them two hand crafted rocking chairs for the nurseries.
Once they finished they started to get up to put everything in Kurt's car when Santana grabbed Kurt's hand and pushed him back down into his seat as Brittany did the same to Blaine.
"Hold on boys, we didn't even get to give you our gifts!" said Santana.
"Oh, you didn't you have to! You are already giving us the greatest present of all, we don't need anything else!" said Blaine while he was rubbing Brittany's back for her, the pregnancy was starting to take a toll on her body and she was really sore from sitting in the chair for so long.
"Relax Blainers, they aren't for you. They're for Harmony and Melody," said Santana simply.
She handed Kurt two little pink boxes, when he opened them tears started falling onto his cheeks and Blaine had tears in his eyes to. They were little matching diamond rings that had ladies first diamond engraved on them. They were beautiful. Both boys got up and hugged the girls, they were thankful for a lot of things in their life, but they were most thankful for Brittany and Santana the mothers of their children, because although Brittany was the birth mother of their daughters Santana was their mom just as much, she was there with Brittany during the morning sickness and the sleepless nights, she was there when Blaine or Kurt couldn't be and for that they we extremely grateful.
The rest of the evening was filled with light chatter and memories from the past and plans for the future, life was good for the group of people, they had all found others to love and all the petty high school drama was long forgotten. They were all adults but they also still had their teenage selves buried inside, and said teenage selves is what lead to the singing session they were currently in.
Blaine and Kurt sang the first part while they danced in the middle of the circle their friends and family had created.
Childhood living,
is easy to do
The things you wanted,
I brought them for you
Graceless lady,
you know who I am
You know I can't let you,
slide through my hands
The husbands took a seat on their chair, Kurt falling in to Blaine's lap as the entire group sang the chorus.
Wild Horses
couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses
couldn't drag me away
Next it was Santana and Brittany's turn to dance, they shuffled around awkwardly because of Brittany's huge belly, but they still danced with looks of pure admiration and respect for one another clearly written on their faces.
I watched you suffer,
a dull, aching pain
Now you decided,
to show me the same
No sweeping exits,
or off-stage lines
Can make me feel bitter,
or treat you unkind
Now everyone was up on their feet dancing, Quinn danced with Sam while Artie wheeled around with their daughter Rose who was also in a wheel chair. The entire group singing the chorus again.
Wild Horses
couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses
couldn't drag me away
Finn and Rachel took the next parts of the song, dancing tightly together.
I watched you suffer,
a dull, aching pain
Now you decided,
to show me the same
No sweeping exits,
or off-stage lines
Can make me feel bitter,
or treat you unkind
Wild Horses,
couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses,
couldn't drag me away
Next Puck, Lauren, Tina and Mike took the last part and the whole group finished with the chorus.
I know I dreamed you,
a sin and a lie
I have my freedom,
but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken,
tears must be cried
Let's do some living,
after we die
Wild Horses,
couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses,
couldn't drag me away
Once they finished everyone clapped and talking and singing continued on late into the night.
I do not own the song that was used in the chapter (Wild Horses – The Sundays) but I do love it so I was to include it in my book. The next chapter should be up soon!

Comments
I love it when the New Directions get back together. This chapter was a lot of fun because it told where everyone ended up and what they were doing now that they were adults. It also showed that even though they had grown up and moved away, they were all still family. Please continue writing, this really is a great story. I am looking forward to when the girls arrive.
