Kurt was in orginisational over-drive. He got up early and made breakfast for everyone, making sure that they all ate enough before he sent them to shower. Kurt quickly turned to cleaning up and sometime later, Blaine snuck up behind him and wrapped his arms around his boyfriend's waist as he was stacking the dishwasher.
"Hey," Blaine murmured, "you're not stressing, right?"
"No," Kurt lied, prompting a chuckle from Blaine.
"Relax babe," Blaine whispered in his ear, "everything will be fine. I promise."
Despite being instantly calmed by his boyfriend's reassuring words, Kurt couldn't help feel anxious. "I just want it to be perfect for them," he said, continuing to busy himself with the dishes.
"It will be," Blaine said, hugging Kurt tightly, "you just need to let everything fall into place. I'll finish here while you go shower and dress."
Kurt turned in Blaine arm's gently and stared into his eyes before he kissed Blaine. "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Blaine grinned. "Now go."
He pushed Kurt in the direction of the door and tapped him on the ass, perfectly sculptured and oh so delicious in Blaine's opinion, as he went. Kurt smirked over his shoulder and headed to a free bathroom.
Kurt showered and dried his hair, styling it to perfection and completing his skin care routine with extra care and attention. Today was a big day, after all. He slipped into his black suit, smoothing out any creases and smiling as he inspected his complexion in the mirror. He quickly headed down stairs, seeing that everyone was waiting for him. As soon as he hit the bottom step Blaine was there, looking at him with awe.
"You look," Blaine stuttered, trying to find the words to describe just how amazing his boyfriend looked. "You look so…"
"You too Blaine," Kurt smiled, gently caressing Blaine's cheek, understanding exactly how Blaine felt. Blaine looked stunning in his grey suit that fitted snugly against his body, announcing every curve and muscle.
Burt was struggling with his tie and Kurt smiled. No matter how many times he got married, his father would always be the same and Kurt loved him all the more for it. He went to his dad and took the tie from him. He knotted it with a practised ease and Burt smiled.
"Thanks son," Burt smiled softly, which Kurt returned.
They grabbed their spare belongings and headed to the cars. Edward drove Burt and Finn while Kurt and Blaine travelled together.
They made it to the church in good time and on arrival went straight the room that had been set aside for them to use. While Burt and Edward went to talk to the minister, Kurt, Blaine and Finn went to greet the guests. They directed them to their seats politely and made small talk. Soon, the members of both the New Directions and the Warblers started to filter in and the boys greeted them quickly and herded them off to the side to get ready for their performance. Carol, Annie and Mildred were the last to arrive.
They were all dressed spectacularly and Carol looked stunning in her wedding dress. Annie had done a wonderful job with her makeup and hair. Crowded behind the door and ready to make their entrance, Kurt turned to Carol.
"Ready?" He asked and Carol took a deep breath.
"Ready," she nodded.
"You look amazing," Kurt told her, truthfully.
"Thank you," Carol replied, smiling gratefully at him.
The music started, signalling the beginning of the wedding.
The ceremony went off without a hitch. The music was flawless and the smiles in the room could have lit up the sun. Burt and Carol had written their own vows and shared them with each other; their beautiful, honest meanings causing most of the audience to cry. Kurt slipped his hand into Blaine's in their seats in the front row, squeezing their fingers together tightly. Blaine didn't have to ask to know what this meant. They were both eagerly anticipating the time when they could write their own vows to share.
Cheers erupted when they shared their kiss and they pulled away, smiling giddily. They made their way down the aisle and all along the aisles, everyone was standing and cheering.
Everyone made their way to the reception, which was being held in a nearby hall. Blaine and Kurt drove together and parked up outside. The two of them headed into the reception and stood at the front to help people find their seats.
Once again the Warblers and New Directions were herded up the front to get ready to sing for everybody. Jeff and Nick started the night off with a duet, singing while everyone came walking in and took their seats.
Meals were served and chatter filled the hall while they took turns in singing. Once everyone had finished eating, Kurt and Finn stood up and took centre stage.
"Hello everyone," Kurt smiled around the room. "Welcome to the Hummel-Hudson-"
"Or Hudmel," Finn added and everyone chuckled.
"Family reception," Kurt finished, shooting Finn an amused smile. "We're so happy that you all could make it to come help us celebrate."
"Mum, you are an amazing person and I can't thank you enough for all that you have done for me. For raising me the man I am today," Finn said. "I love you and I'm so happy that you found Burt. The Hummel family really is awesome. I can't wait to be a part of it." Everyone laughed and Kurt nudged Finn playfully. "I want to thank you Burt for making my mum really happy," Finn finished, smiling. Burt nodded and squeezed Carol's hand.
"I want to thank Carol," Kurt continued, "for making my dad smile again." Carol breath hitched and she looked at Kurt through teary eyes. "You make my dad really happy and that's all I could ever want for him," Kurt blinked back tears, determined to see this speech through without crying. "You have not only gained another son but a friend too and I'm really excited to call you and Finn family."
There were sniffs all around the guest and Carol dabbed her eyes with her napkin. Blaine was smiling proudly at his boyfriend, his eyes adoring.
"To the Hummel-Hudson family," Finn said, raising his glass. "Cheers."
"Cheers!" There was applause and music stared playing again. Finn and Kurt sang a song together, Just The Way You Are, Kurt taking the higher notes. Though their voices weren't perfectly suited, the emotion behind the words shone through the vocals.
Everyone applauded and the two boys took their seats again, Santana and Brittany taking their spot on stage. Carol and Burt hugged their two boys tightly, muttering their thanks as they did so. Kurt slid into his seat next to Blaine, who leant forward and kissed his cheek, taking Kurt's hand.
"That was beautiful," Blaine whispered in his ear, "I love you so much and I'm so proud of you."
"Really?" Kurt asked, eyes shining.
"Really," Blaine smiled and gently pecked Kurt on the lips. Kurt beamed and squeezed Blaine's hand tightly.
Burt and Carol stood up and shared their first dance, Will Schuster – who'd been invited by Finn, who'd claimed the man had played a father figure in his life recently – singing Sway With Me and everyone looked on, smiling at the happy couple.
"Do I get a dance?" Blaine asked quietly to Kurt.
"Of course," Kurt murmured back, "I love dancing with you."
New Directions got up and started singing and other couples came and joined Burt and Carol on the floor for a dance. Blaine held out his hand and Kurt smiled, taking it.
New Directions watched Kurt and Blaine as they sang. The two of them were standing close, arms wrapped around each other as the danced in time to the music. Both were smiling brightly and laughing, looking more care free than they had in a while.
Blaine twirled Kurt around and Kurt laughed loudly, spinning himself back into Blaine's arms. They watched as Nick snuck up behind them and the next time Blaine spun Kurt out, Nick grabbed him and pulled him into a tango move, dipping him. The boys laughed and Blaine moved to dance with Jeff, both of them sniggering.
They all looked so happy.
New Directions, Carol and Finn watched as Kurt and Blaine interacted with family members. The family members greeted Blaine and Kurt the same, hugging them both tightly, joking with them. It seemed that Blaine had gone to many family events and everyone loved him.
Every relative joked that they would be attending their wedding next and both Kurt and Blaine grinned widely and agreed that yes, they probably would. New Directions had been shocked to hear this and were even more stunned that none of the family members seemed surprised, instead seeming rather happy about it.
"Wait," Rachel questioned when she had overheard this, "they're thinking about marriage?"
"Damn," Mercedes muttered, "all the good ones are taken."
"Did you know this Finn?" Quinn asked, a hint of envy running through her voice.
"No," Finn said, eyes huge with shock.
"You shouldn't be so surprised," Wes told them, coming up behind the group, causing them to jump.
"Geez," Tina said, pressing her hand to her heart, "don't do that."
"Sorry," Wes replied, looking sheepish.
"Wait, so you know that Kurt and Blaine want to get married?" Artie asked.
"Yeah, we've been betting on how long it would take for them to propose," Nick said, wrapping an arm around Jeff's waist.
"I think Kurt did," David mused, "or at least, he sort of did."
"We know they picked out rings," Nick told the New Directions, beaming with pride at Kurt and Blaine, who had their backs turned and were oblivious to conversation.
"They have rings?" Finn asked, shocked.
"Yeah, they chose them when Burt went ring shopping," Jeff said. The girls looked shocked, all apart from Santana and Brittany.
"Good for them," Santana said. "They're in the happiest relationship I've ever seen."
"And coming from her," Quinn told the Warblers, "that's a compliment."
"Are they going to have gay babies?" Brittany asked and Finn choked on his own spit.
"I love this girl," Nick grinned and Jeff sniggered.
"But they're only in high school," Rachel cried, sounding anguished and slightly jealous.
"They're happy," Nick pointed out, "plus, they're not going to actually get married until college or after college. They've just kind of proposed."
"I bet Blaine will be the one to propose properly," David grinned.
"I'll take that bet. I think it'll be Kurt," Jeff shot back and the two boys shook on it. A couple of the Warblers mumbled their agreement and placed equal bets.
"Speaking of the Klaine –" Wes started.
"Klaine?" Mike interrupted, looking perplexed.
"Kurt and Blaine's couple name," Jeff told him.
"Yeah, them. Where are they?" Wes asked, looking around. Everyone looked but couldn't see them anywhere.
Kurt and Blaine had slipped off to enjoy a private moment with each other. Carol and Burt were happily dancing and enjoying the company of all the other guests so they wouldn't be missed. Mildred had been the one to suggest it. She had come up to the two, smiling. She hugged them both tightly and kissed Kurt's cheek.
"Your mum would be so proud of all the hard work you've done," Mildred told Kurt, and Blaine squeezed his boyfriend's hand in agreement. "And your dad is so proud of you," Mildred continued, "you did a wonderful job."
"Thanks, Aunt Mildred," Kurt said, tears shining in his eyes.
"Now, why don't you and Blaine sneak off somewhere?" Mildred winked. "I'll cover for you."
"Thank you so much," Blaine grinned and tugged Kurt away, Mildred's laughter following them.
Blaine was followed by an amused Kurt as they snuck off to an empty room in the hall. They went past the kitchen and into a small room that was filled with chairs. Blaine grinned and shut the door behind him, locking it as he did so. He advanced on Kurt and pushed him up against the wall. Kurt's breath hitched and he grinned as Blaine's body was flush against his.
"You look so handsome and sexy," Blaine told his boyfriend, their lips barely a centimetre apart.
"Oh Blaine," Kurt said, bringing a hand up to cup Blaine's cheek, "you are so amazing."
Blaine smiled and pushed his lips to Kurt's, moulding their bodies together. Kurt hummed and parted his lips, his tongue darting out to catch Blaine's. Blaine moaned and pushed himself closer to Kurt, hand coming up undo Kurt's jacket button. He pushed the jacket off Kurt's shoulders, keeping him pressed against the wall. Kurt mimicked the action and then untucked Blaine's shirt, running his hands under the shirt and up Blaine's chest.
Blaine growled and angled his head so he was kissing his boyfriend harder and with more passion.
Kurt nibbled on Blaine's bottom lip, causing Blaine to whimper. Blaine ripped Kurt's shirt out of his pants and ran his hands up Kurt's chest and back, loving the feel of the skin underneath. Kurt moaned, pulling his mouth away and sucking in deep breaths. Blaine latched his mouth onto Kurt's neck and started licking and biting.
"No marks," Kurt gasped, squeezing Blaine's hips.
"Tease," Blaine murmured and Kurt's eyes rolled back.
Blaine put his mouth back to Kurt's and kissed him again, running his thumb over Kurt's cheek bones; he knew better than to touch Kurt's hair when they still had to see people. Kurt whimpered and kissed back harder.
The two of them stayed in the embrace for a while, moaning and clutching at each other. A phone buzzed loudly and Blaine ripped away, Kurt whining at the loss.
"It's your phone," Blaine panted. Kurt took in Blaine's dilated pupils and swollen lips, realising that he must look the same and licked his lips. Blaine followed the movement with a small whimper and Kurt pulled out his phone.
"Hello?" he answered.
"Hey, your dad and Carol are getting ready to leave," Mildred said. "Get dressed and come back out."
"We are dressed," Kurt replied, rolling his eyes.
"Oh," said Mildred, sounding disappointed. "Well come hurry up any way."
Kurt hung up and pocketed his phone again. "We have to get going," he said. Blaine nodded and picked up their jackets. They slid them on but before they could leave, Blaine pressed one last lingering kiss to Kurt's lips.
"Hmm we have to go," Kurt mumbled through the kiss.
"OK," Blaine mumbled back, still kissing Kurt. Kurt moaned and started moving to the door, Blaine's lips still firmly attached to his.
Kurt stumbled to the door, unlocked and opened it, stumbling out into the hallway. Blaine finally pulled away with a grin, panting softly.
"Come on Romeo," Kurt said, taking Blaine's hand, "we can continue this later."
"I'm so glad you said that," Blaine said, nibbling on Kurt's ear. Kurt batted him away half-heartedly and Blaine finally obliged, grinning.
The two of them straightened their clothes and slipped back in among the people. They winked at Mildred who returned the gesture, grinning widely.
"Dad," Kurt hugged Burt tightly, "congratulations."
"Thanks kid," Burt replied, "you did an amazing job with the wedding, Kurt. Thanks."
"It was my pleasure Dad," Kurt told him, "I enjoyed myself."
"Congratulations Burt," Blaine grinned.
"Thank you Blaine," Burt smiled back.
"It was a beautiful ceremony," Blaine told him, truthfully.
"We are going to head off soon." Burt said, puling Carol into his arms. "Finn's staying at Puck's place and I assume you'll be with Blaine." He directed the last part at Kurt, who nodded.
"Always," Kurt grinned and Blaine chuckled.
"I'll call you when we're heading home," Burt said.
"Have fun Dad, Carol," Kurt beamed and the two of the grinned back at him.
Burt and Carol hugged him tightly one last time and headed off to say goodbye to everyone, most of whom were already starting to disperse.
"You know what that means," Blaine whispered in Kurt's ear, "an empty house."
"Tease," Kurt murmured, though he couldn't deny that he loved it.
