Blaine was sitting in history with David, Wes and Jeff. They were working on a group project but Blaine's mind was elsewhere.

"Where's your head at, Blaine?" Jeff inquired and Blaine jumped, blushing.

"Sorry," he apologized, shaking his head.

"Everything OK?" Wes asked.

"Yeah, I just – I need to find Kurt the perfect Christmas present," Blaine told them, "and I'm stuck."

"You're not the only one, mate," David sighed. "We are struggling to get our girlfriends something."

"I have no idea what to get Nick," Jeff added.

"We could go shopping together," Blaine grinned. "Help each other out."

"I'm in," Blaine grinned. Wes and Jeff agreed and they made plans to go tomorrow after school. They went back to their history project, working with more enthusiasm than before.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nick and Kurt headed to the cafeteria after art to meet up with the rest of the Warblers and their boyfriends. They scanned the room and saw them hunched over the table, talking. Nick and Kurt beamed and headed to them, slipping into two empty seats next to each other. Blaine grinned at Kurt from across the table and rubbed his calf up Kurt's.

"How was art?" Blaine asked. Kurt just beamed and handed over his sketch book. Blaine opened it and saw the sketch that Kurt had done of him playing the guitar only now he had added colour and a background. "Kurt, it's amazing," Blaine breathed and Kurt smiled bashfully.

"Thanks," Kurt said, taking back his sketch book.

"So tomorrow after school Jeff, Wes, David and I are going shopping," Blaine told Kurt who brightened.

"Can I come?" Kurt asked, eyes hopeful. Blaine bit his lip.

"I'm shopping for your Christmas present and I want it to be a surprise," Blaine said and Kurt's eyes softened, looking at Blaine adoringly.

"OK," Kurt smiled. Blaine grinned and soon enough they were distracted by Cameron tripping over his chair and dropping his lunch.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kurt was wrapping Blaine's Christmas present when he heard the front door open and close.

"Kurt?" Blaine called and Kurt gasped. He quickly dashed to his door and locked it. He listened to Blaine's footsteps and then a loud crash sounded. Blaine had run into the door.

"Ow!" Blaine moaned on the other side. "Kurt, why is your door locked?"

"Just a minute," Kurt called and quickly scrambled to collect Blaine's present, the wrapping paper and sticky tape, looking for a place to hide it. He hadn't gotten the chance to finish wrapping it.

"Is everything OK?" Blaine asked worriedly.

"Fine," Kurt called out, wincing at how high is voice sounded.

Blaine frowned. Kurt's voice went high when he was nervous. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, just give me – ow, damn it!" Kurt snapped and Blaine frowned.

There was more rustling and Kurt suddenly yanked the door open. Blaine fell backwards in surprise and Kurt instinctively reached out to grab him, pulling him forward and into him. Kurt grunted and fell back, Blaine on top of him.

"Omph," Blaine grunted and looked down at Kurt. "Hey," Blaine grinned and Kurt rolled his eyes. Blaine rolled off him and helped him up. "What were you up to?"

"I was wrapping your Christmas present," Kurt huffed. Blaine eyes brightened and he tackled Kurt into a hug. Kurt chuckled. "Just – don't look under my bed," he pleaded and Blaine chuckled.

"I promise I won't look," Blaine vowed, pulling Kurt into a kiss. Blaine tasted like coffee and mint. It was an odd but no less delicious combination.

"They were handing out candy canes at the mall weren't they?" Kurt smirked as he pulled away and Blaine grinned.

"Yes they were and they were delicious," Blaine chuckled.

"Was it a good shopping trip?" Kurt asked.

"Yes! I found you the perfect present," Blaine grinned.

Kurt pouted and Blaine chuckled. "You're jealous I went shopping without you."

"I love shopping," Kurt pouted and Blaine wrapped a strong arm around his waist.

"I'll make it up to you," Blaine grinned and pulled his boyfriend into another kiss.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Christmas morning was always the same. The Hummels and Andersons spent Christmas morning together, alternating between houses and this year it was at the Anderson's home. Burt and Kurt had left early in the morning, loading the car with Christmas presents and heading over to the Anderson's home. When they arrived Annie opened the door, already up and starting to make breakfast.

"Those can go under the tree Burt," Annie directed. "Kurt, Blaine's still asleep."

"Really?" Kurt asked, surprised. "Usually he's up at 6:30 on Christmas morning."

"I know," Annie giggled. "Imagine my surprise when I woke up."

"I'll go wake him," Kurt grinned and quickly dashed up to Blaine's room.

Kurt slipped in quietly and grinned. Last year Blaine had woken up Kurt in the most obnoxious way and now it was time for payback.

Kurt settled himself at Blaine desk, facing the chair toward him. He sat down and quickly placed a CD in Blaine's CD player and pressed play, turning it up to full volume. Kurt covered his ears and watched as Blaine sprung out of bed, getting tangled in his sheets and falling off the bed.

He laughed loudly, holding his stomach and slipping in his chair as he struggled to breathe.

"KURT!" Blaine yelled over the music but Kurt just kept laughing. Blaine scrambled up and switched off the music, Kurt laughter ringing through the room.

"Mer-merry Chri-stm-as," Kurt said through his giggles and Blaine huffed though his lips were twitching, trying not to smile.

"Merry Christmas," Blaine huffed and Kurt straightened, trying to stop his giggles.

"Sorry," Kurt stifled more laughter.

"You don't look sorry," Blaine pouted.

Kurt moved to him and wrapped his arms around his boyfriend. He looked up at Blaine from under his eyelashes. "I'm sorry," he apologized and Blaine groaned.

"You can't just look at me like that and not expect me to do nothing," Blaine moaned, gently nipping at Kurt's neck. His boyfriend let out a throaty chuckle.

"Good to know," Kurt gasped as Blaine sucked on a particular sensitive spot on his neck and tipped his head back.

Blaine hummed and moved Kurt to the bed, laying him down and crawling on top of him. Kurt ran his hands up Blaine's back, up and under his t-shirt. Blaine moved from Kurt's neck to his lips, licking his way into his boyfriend's mouth. Kurt moaned softly as Blaine's hand dipped under his shirt, palming the muscles on his stomach.

"Blaine," Kurt moaned softly.

"Merry Christmas," Blaine panted softly and Kurt smiled up at him, running his hands through Blaine's curls.

"I'm surprised you were still asleep," Kurt murmured, loving the feel of Blaine's weight on top of him.

"I was having a good dream," Blaine grinned down at him.

"Hmm? What about?" Kurt asked curiously and watched a blush spread across Blaine's cheeks. Blaine mumbled something under his breath and Kurt chuckled. "I didn't catch that."

"It was about you and me," Blaine said, louder this time.

"Oh," Kurt breathed, a blush staining his cheeks. "Uh- you had – um – a," he stammered, blushing red. Blaine seemed to catch on to what Kurt was trying to say.

"No! Not a sex dream – not that I don't think of you that way because I do – but, I would never pressure you, you know that, right?" Blaine rambled and Kurt cut him off with a quick kiss.

"What was the dream, Blaine?" Kurt asked.

"Us, in the future," his boyfriend blushed. "We were married."

Kurt beamed, cupping Blaine's jaw. "I'd like that," Kurt struggled to cover his blush. "One day. With you."

"Me too," Blaine whispered and kissed Kurt slowly and sensually. They pulled back and stared at each other, both with bright smiles.

"You had better get dressed," Kurt eventually broke the moment.

"You're right," Blaine agreed and place one last kiss on his boyfriend's lips before hauling himself up. Kurt took a deep breath and relaxed against Blaine's bed, breathing in his scent. Blaine disappeared into the bathroom and quickly got dressed. He came back out and helped Kurt off the bed and they went downstairs, hands linked.

Annie was placing breakfast on the table when they entered and she smiled at the two of them. "Merry Christmas," she beamed and pulled the two boys into a hug. They hugged back and returned the holiday greeting.

Hugs were given to Burt and Edward as well and they all sat down to enjoy breakfast. When they were full they moved to the living room to give their gifts. Kurt gave his present to Blaine and watched him open, biting his lip. Blaine gasped and pulled a Harmonica with the words courage engraved on it and new guitar picks that had his name engraved on them.

"Kurt, I love it," Blaine breathed, immediately clasping it around his wrist and hugged him tightly. "Here," he grinned, passing Kurt his present.

Kurt opened it carefully, having no idea what it was. The box was long and beautiful. He opened it and gasped, eyes going wide. "Blaine," he breathed and pulled out two brand new samurai swords.

Kurt had picked up the talent after watching Electra and practiced twirling them. He never had a pair but often wished he had. Kurt placed them gently back in the box before tackling his boyfriend into a hug. Blaine laughed and kissed him gently.

Once everything was opened, Edward and Burt cleaned up the paper while Annie started on making their Christmas lunch. Family was coming down to their house for this Christmas and would be staying for lunch and dinner. Kurt and Blaine moved the presents upstairs and out of the way. Blaine helped Edward and Burt set up a large table inside the living room while Kurt helped Annie in the kitchen.

Around noon the family started arriving, Edward greeting them joyfully and ushering them in out of the cold. Hugs and greetings were tossed around, the house instantly filling with loud chatter. The Anderson family greeted Kurt and Burt warmly, hugging them as they passed. The Hummel family were all celebrating elsewhere but this year they decided to have Christmas with the Andersons.

Kurt wished his Aunt Mildred could come but she was spending it with her parents. His phone rang and he pulled out, smiling when he saw his Aunt's name on the screen. He quickly ducked out of the kitchen and answered it. "Merry Christmas," Kurt greeted.

"Merry Christmas, Kurt!" Mildred cried over the end. "Did you get a good haul this year?"

Kurt laughed and filled her in on the presents he had gotten. "How are grandma and grandpa?"

"They're good," Mildred told him. "We wish you were here but I hear it's difficult to pull you away from your boyfriend."

Kurt gasped. "Who told you?"

"Burt did. We had a bet going," Mildred cackled. "We wondered how long it would before you and Blaine would get your acts together." Kurt huffed and leant against the wall. "How is he by the way?"

"He's good," Kurt said, unable to keep the smile off his face.

"As dreamy as ever?" Mildred prompted.

"Even more so," Kurt sighed and Mildred giggled.

"I just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas. I'll let you get back to lover boy."

"Don't call him that," Kurt groaned and Mildred laughed.

"Bye Kurt," Mildred sang.

"Bye," Kurt hung up and shook his head fondly. He missed his aunt and hoped that she would come and visit soon.

Kurt jumped when he heard a throat clearing and found Blaine grinning at him. "Who you talking to?"

"Aunt Mildred," Kurt answered. "She says Merry Christmas."

Blaine grinned. "Is she coming down soon?"

"I hope so," Kurt beamed.

"Come on. Uncle Marcus is on his third eggnog," Blaine grinned. "Soon he'll be attempting Mum's Turkey dance."

Kurt giggled and grabbed Blaine's hand and they hurried to get good seats to watch Blaine's uncle embarrass himself. Kurt loved Christmas and hoped that one day he would be having Christmas with a family of his home, Blaine by his side.
