Kurt slapped his hand away, glaring at him.

"Don't. Not here."

Kurt still hadn't come to terms with his pregnancy, preferring to deny it until he couldn't. In moments of honesty – such as when he was being violently ill each morning – he allowed himself to think about it, about him... But generally, his thoughts tended to be filled with hate towards this...creature that was leeching off of his body, making him sick, making his body change...

Kurt shook his head violently.

"No. Don't think about it." He ordered himself under his breath.

"Kurt?" Blaine asked gently, taking Kurt's hand. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

But no, today... Today he had to think about it. Today was his first ultrasound, and they'd both taken the time off work (Blaine was skipping a lecture) to go.

"Kurt Hummel?"

Kurt's head shot up automatically and the nurse smiled at him. "If you'll just follow me?"

Blaine stood up, urging Kurt to his feet.

"Come on." He said softly, his thumb rubbing circles on the back of Kurt's hand. "Let's go see our son."

^.^

Kurt lay on the table, shirt hitched up under his arms, staring blankly at the screen as the nurse squeezed goop onto his stomach. Blaine held Kurt's hand, trying hard to keep himself from bouncing in excitement as he squinted at the screen.

"There he is Kurt! I can see him!" He said excitedly, making the nurse laugh at his enthusiasm.

"He looks like a seahorse." Kurt said flatly. The nurse smiled at them both.

"He's about the size of a jelly bean, and he's moving already, you just can't feel it yet." The nurse said calmly. "You should be able to feel him moving in a month or two."

Kurt froze. It wasn't bad enough that he was already a freak, but now he'd have to feel that thing moving as well?

"Everything's fine." The nurse was telling Blaine as Kurt tuned back in. "Would you like a picture?" Blaine nodded eagerly, waiting as the nurse pressed a few button before turning the screen off, wiping a soft cloth over Kurt's stomach.

"And there you go!" she said, handing Blaine the picture as Kurt sat up, fixing his shirt so he didn't feel so exposed. "Your next appointment is in a month's time. See you then!"

^.^

During the car ride home, Kurt turned on his side, feigning sleep so he didn't have to deal with Blaine's excitement. By the time they got home, he was half asleep.

He felt the car pull to a stop and heard Blaine's seat belt click, the brush of a hand against his cheek as Blaine leant over to check if he'd woken up, the sound of the door shutting quietly as Blaine got out of the car, then of his door opening.

Blaine leant over him, unbuckling his seat belt before sliding an arm under his legs and one around his back, gently easing Kurt out of the car. Kurt cuddled into Blaine's chest, feeling warm and safe and loved.

He half smiled as he felt Blaine push the door shut with his hip, balancing Kurt with one arm as he unlocked the front door.

"I know you're awake." Blaine said softly, carrying Kurt into the lounge room.

"Mmm." Kurt smiled, nuzzling his face into Blaine's chest. "Cuddles?" he requested.

Blaine laughed, sinking carefully onto the couch. Kurt rearranged himself, curling up between Blaine and the back of the chair, half on Blaine's chest. They sat in silence for a while, cuddled together as Blaine petted Kurt's hair and Kurt yawned, wondering if it'd be okay if he went back to sleep.

Blaine broke the silence.

"I'm putting his picture on the fridge."

Kurt tensed.

"Blaine..."

"I know you're not happy about this, about everything – being pregnant, having a child together while we're still so young ourselves – But Kurt... Can't you just let me be happy?"

Kurt nodded into Blaine's chest, tears welling in his eyes. Blaine was right, he was being selfish, letting his hatred and anger about what was happening to him affect Blaine's happiness – their happiness.

"You can be happy for the both of us." He whispered, crying silently. "-but Blaine... I'm scared."

Blaine hugged him closer, a hand dropping to rub his stomach soothingly.

"We'll be okay Kurt..." He whispered, pulling Kurt's head up to face him. "We'll be okay, because we have each other." He promised, sealing his words with a soft kiss.

Kurt nodded, his head dropping to rest on Blaine's chest again.

He hoped so...
