Cassidy danced around the living room singing, "And this Christmas, will be a very special Christmas for me!" Blaine was joining in with her and laughing.
Kurt couldn't help the laugh he was desperately trying to hold in, but he couldn't. Both Blaine and Cassidy were dancing around singing while they were busying decorating the apartment for Christmas. It was a Wednesday night and one of the only nights of the week where they were all together.
"And will you have a solo at this year's choir concert?" Kurt asked Cassidy as she stood on the couch. He picked her up and set her down on the carpet.
"No," Cassidy shook her head, "My choir teacher said I don't have the stamina to have a solo."
Blaine turned his head quickly to look at his sister, "Excuse me?"
Cassidy shrugged her shoulders, "I'm not worried about it. I don't even want a solo anyways. The girls just make fun of me when I do sing in front of everyone."
"Why is that?" Kurt asked her.
"Because my voice isn't has high as theirs," Cassidy said, "It doesn't matter to me though." She pulled a bow out of the box, "I think Stormy should wear this." She ran down the hall to find her cat.
Kurt looked over at Blaine, "I get made fun of for having a high voice and she gets made fun of for having a lower voice."
Blaine touched his shoulder, "I wouldn't worry about it Cassidy is a strong girl. She proved that last week."
"I know," Kurt sighed, "But look what happened to me."
Blaine reached over and pulled Kurt into his arms, "You my lovely fiancé look like you turned out alright."
Kurt just gave Blaine a smirk, "Very funny."
"I mean it," Blaine said, "You landed a very funny, handsome, young..."
Kurt snorted a laugh, "Full of yourself much?"
"Only when I'm with you," Blaine leaned into kiss him. Kurt just smiled into the kiss and wrapped his arms around Blaine's neck.
Cassidy cleared her throat in back of them. Kurt and Blaine both looked at her, "I swear," she turned to the cat which she was holding in her arms, "Boys are so annoying.
Kurt lifted an eyebrow, "You know he is a boy too."
"He hasn't been a boy since we got him fixed," Cassidy said with a nod. She set Stormageddon down on the couch, "Can we please get back to hanging up the decorations. Enough of this kissing stuff."
"You know one day down the road, Blaine or I will walk in find you kissing a boy or girl and we will tease you the very same," Kurt said to her.
Blaine laughed reluctantly letting Kurt go, "I hope that will happen when you are ready and after we've had the talk."
"What talk?" Cassidy asked opening another one of the Christmas boxes.
Kurt just glanced over at Blaine with a smile. "Maybe tomorrow, today we are hanging Christmas decorations," Blaine said, "And I have a feeling it may snow sometime soon."
"How do you know that?" Kurt asked him.
"Intuition," Blaine nodded his head, "Now where should we hang up the stockings?"
Kurt just laughed and looked over at Cassidy, "He's serious isn't he?"
"Yep," Cassidy nodded, "And I think the stockings should hang over here," she pointed to the entertainment center.
"I like it," Blaine said, "We should buy those stocking hangers and put them at the top." He looked over at Kurt, "You think we can?"
"I'm sure we can find some," Kurt smiled, "For now, let's hang them with these." He grabbed a few heavier Christmas knick knacks Blaine and Cassidy had.
They all soon realized that they were missing something very important. "Um, we need a tree."
"Yes we do," Kurt nodded his head agreeing with Blaine.
"What about our Christmas branch?" Cassidy asked them.
Blaine shrugged, "We are going to be home for Christmas this year though. Maybe we could a small tree."
"Yeah," Kurt said excitedly, "And then we can start our own ornament collection. I may ask Carole if she can mail some of mine."
"But we always get a Christmas branch," Cassidy said to them.
Blaine ran a hand through his hair, "I know Sissy, but you know we are going to be home and since Kurt and I are working a bit more we can afford a tree."
Cassidy crossed her arms over her chest, "But we always get a Christmas branch. It's a tradition, remember?"
Kurt sighed, "How about we do this," he said to her, "We will get a tree for the living room and we can get a Christmas branch for you room."
"I don't want it in my room," Cassidy said with a few tears filling her eyes, "We always get a Christmas branch. We got one last year."
"True," Blaine said, "But we went back to Lima last year," he tried to explain to her, "Kurt and I figured we wouldn't need to spend the money getting a tree, but since we are staying in New York, we want to do something fun to celebrate Christmas."
Cassidy looked down, "But we've always had a Christmas branch."
Blaine touched her shoulder, "Sissy, do you remember when you were younger and I told you I always wanted what was best for you?"
"Yes," Cassidy nodded her head.
"This is just one of those things," Blaine shrugged, "I've never been able to get you a Christmas tree and this year I can. I want too." He tugged Kurt's hand so he would get closer, "We both want too."
Cassidy sighed, "Can I have a Christmas branch in my room too?"
"I don't see why not," Blaine smiled, "I think that's a great idea."
"You know you are a very special little girl," Kurt said to her, "I can't think of a single reason why that couldn't be arranged. We should all go shopping and each find some ornaments for the tree."
"We can have our own ornaments?" Cassidy asked scrunching her face.
Blaine nodded, "You know when we are born our parents each got us ornaments with our names and first Christmases on them."
"Did those get lost?" Cassidy asked.
Blaine sighed, "Yeah, but you know we can always get new ones and maybe we can even get one from our first Christmas together."
"From when you and Kurt first got together," Cassidy said excitedly, "Do you like that idea Kurt?"
"I think it's a wonderful idea," Kurt smiled at her, "Maybe we can even pick out one for Stormy."
"He would love that," Cassidy said picking up her cat, "You know Stormageddon wasn't the first name I thought of for him."
"Oh really," Blaine smiled, "What was the first name you thought of?"
"Drizzle," Cassidy said with a nod.
Blaine looked as if he was about to say something but then closed his mouth. Kurt just shook his head with a laugh, "Just so you know neither she nor Blaine are naming any children."
"Our children?" Blaine smiled at him, "You know that I will have one day with my older man."
"Oh we are back to that are we," Kurt said rolling his eyes.
Blaine let out a playful sigh, "I suppose I will just wait until you get gray first and then my plan will be complete."
"How do you know I will go gray first?" Kurt asked him.
Blaine shrugged, "I have no clue, but if that ship has already set its course then I will most definitely go gray first."
"How do you know that?" Kurt laughed.
"I have you and my sister," Blaine said with a smile, "I'm sure that counts for a lot."
Kurt lifted an eyebrow and stared at him, "Are you saying I'm difficult."
"No, never," Blaine kissed him, "I keep you young." He walked away leaving a confused Kurt.
"Wait, keep me young?" Kurt asked confused, "You keep calling me old. What are you...Blaine!"
Blaine giggled, "Not around the children dear."
Cassidy just looked between to the two of them and shook her head, "Boys."
