Chapter 8

"Blaine. Blaine. BLAINE! GET WITH THE PROGRAM HERE!" Kurt yelled at the top of his lungs as he stared at his dumbfounded mate.

Blaine quickly blinked at his mates yelling and looked at his face. "Shit, babe, hold on. Im going to get my parents!" Blaine rushed as he ran to his parents room, knocking quickly and loudly.

"What is with the knocking, Blaine?" Jon demanded as he opened the door and looked at his distressed son.

"K-Kurt is in labor!" Blaine stuttered as his breathing became quick.

"Really!? Come on son. We need to get him to the hospital. Alex, Kurt is in labor, lets go!" Jon instructed as he and his son and mate ran into the room.

Blaine sent a mass text to the coven telling them the news and to go to hospital as he entered the room and found Kurt sitting in pain. Alex immediately sat next to Kurt and grabbed his hand and pulled his hair from his sweating forehead.

"It hurts." Kurt whispered as another contraction ripped through his stomach.

"I know sweetheart. Its going to get worse. Just keep breathing." Alex consoled while looking at her son.

Blaine knelt in front of Kurt and put his hands on the tensed stomach, feeling the muscles tighten. "Babe, can you walk?" He asked.

Kurt looked at Blaine. "I dont think so. It hurts too much." Kurt winced as the contraction stopped.

"Blaine you just have to carry him. I dont want him to walk." Jon told his son as he made a hospital bag. Alex got up to help her husband.

Blaine nodded at Jons suggestion and got up. "Kurt, put your arms around my neck. Im going to carry you to the car." He gently prodded Kurt to turn and put his arm under Kurts knees and back and slowly lifted him into his chest, conscious of his protruding stomach.

"Im tired, Blaine." Kurt whimpered in pain and he laid his head on Blaines shoulder and closed his eyes.

"Its okay." Blaine kissed the top of Kurts head. "Just rest, love." He looked to his parents.

Getting a sleeping Kurt in and out of a car was hard enough, now Kurt was practically screaming in the wheelchair in the waiting room. Blaines father wasnt making it easier by yelling at the nursing staff to hurry up.

"You need to get him back there. Did you not hear me? He is in labor. Unless you want an angry vampire and his pregnant mate to have a baby on your floor, I suggest you get it into gear. Now!" Jon demanded the frazzled nurse.

Blaine got up and walked over to his father, putting his hand on his shoulder. "Dad, please calm down. You know yelling at the nurse isnt going to make this go faster." Blaine tried to calm Jon.

Just as Jon was about to retort, a nurse called Kurts name and they quickly wheeled him into his room. After he was dressed and laying in the bed, Kurt was looked over by the nurse.

"It looks like your contractions are quite a bit apart. Sorry to say, but this labor will be a long one. You havent dilated yet. I wont be able to give you pain medication until you are at least 7 centimeters dilated" The nurse looked sympathetic at Kurts face of pain.

"You mean I have to sit here in pain for hours!?" Kurt yelled in frustration. "Fuck!" he exclaimed as another contraction hit him and Blaine rushed over to his side, holding his hand.

"I know its bad, Kurt, but think about the fact that we will soon have our little baby in our arms. One we can spoil to no end and love. You just have to get through a couple of hours of pain." Blaine soothed his hurt mate, kissing him gently.

"It hurts. Its going to get worse, Blaine. I dont know if I can handle it." Kurt was terrified of the worse pain that he will surely feel.

The nurse watched the interaction. "If the pain gets too unbearable, we will do some exercises to relieve it. Just push the red button next to you if you think the pain is too much or if you feel like pushing. Remember that if you feel the urge, dont push, push the button." The nurse told Kurt who nodded. "Al right, if you need anything, just push the button. Ill be back in about an hour to check on you and the baby." The nurse closed the door.

"Come lay with me Blaine, please." Kurt begged as he moved over to make room on the small bed.

Blaine looked skeptical. "I dont think Im allowed to do that…" He trailed off as he noted the look on Kurts face.

"Are we going to go through the logistics, Blaine? Im in fucking labor. They will live. I need you right now." Kurt demanded as Alex handed him some ice.

"Blaine, do as Kurt says. He doesnt need to stress himself out any more than needed. The only thing he needs to concentrate on his having a baby. That is a hard thing to do. Whatever he asks for, do it." Jon harshly told his son.

Blaine looked sheepishly at his father and crawled in the bed and laid behind his mate. "What do you need?" Blaine asked Kurt, putting his hands on the bump and started to gently massage the tensed muscles.

"Just hold me." Kurt whispered as Alex wiped his forehead. "This is going to be a bumpy ride." He said and Blaine kissed the back of his neck.

8 hours later

"I FUCKING HATE YOU, BLAINE DEVON ANDERSON! WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME?!" Kurt yelled while crying with pain.

Blaines hand was being crushed by his distraught mate. Within eight hours, Kurt had gone from sleeping, to crying and screaming in pain. He kicked out Jeff and Nick two hours ago and is now crushing Blaines hand. He was glad he was a vampire or his hand would have been broken by now. He was trying to calm Kurt down and do his breathing exercises, but to no avail. He just took the yelling and keep trying to soothe Kurt. This seemed to anger him more.

"Dont fucking tell me to calm down. Im going to pop a kid out and Im allowed to yell! Fuck this hurts." Kurt seemed to sit up during his tirade and is now holding his back.

"Here, let me rub your back." Blaine said as he sat behind Kurt, prodding him forward and started to massage his back.

"Are you feeling a little, sweetheart?" Alex asked calmly.

Kurt looked at her. "Yeah… Im sorry for yelling. It is just like I cant control my emotions." He leaned back and rested back into Blaines chest and turned his face into his chest.

Blaine wrapped his arms protectively around his mate and kissed his forehead. "When is the nurse coming back?" He asked his father.

Jon looked at his son. "In a few minutes give or take. Im sure Kurt is close to getting the pain meds."

Just as Jon finished his sentence, the nurse came into the room with another nurse who had a cart with her.

"Who is ready for some pain relief?" The nurse cheerfully said, looking at the occupants of the room.

"Okay, Kurt I need to check how dilated you and see how the baby is doing. After I do that, you have the medicine and the rest is easy. You will meet your baby in a couple of hours." The nurse smiled when Kurt sighed a sigh of relief.

"Finally." Kurt said.

2 hours later

"Well, the nurse was right about this going fast. I think I need to push." Kurt said out-of-the-blue.

The occupants of the room looked sharply to Kurt and Blaine rushed over to the bed and grabbed Kurts hands.

"Really!? You have to push? Right now? Oh god, Im not ready. Were not ready. No, you have to keep the baby in. You ha-" Blaine was cut-off with Kurts hand over his mouth.

"Babe, you need to calm down. I cant hold the baby in. It has to come out and that time is now. Please stop freaking out, youre making me freak out." Kurt pleaded and Blaine nodded.

Jon pushed the button and within a few minutes, their nurse came bustling in.

"Is something wrong?" She asked.

"I need to push." Kurt replied and the nurse shook her head.

Okay, let me go get the doctor and we will get the show on the road." The nurse left and came back in with the doctor in her scrubs.

"Hello Kurt, Im Doctor Shannon. Ill be delivering your baby today. Now, are we ready to have this baby?" She look at the nervous couple. "Its okay to be scared. Most first time parents are. I will help you through this step by step." She looked at Jon and Alex. "Are you the Grandparents?" They both nodded. "Good, I need your help." She ushered them over to the bed.

Shannon went over to the two nurses by the baby station and gave them their instructions. When she finished, she grabbed a cart and wheeled it over and sat in front of Kurt.

"Now, I need you to put your feet in the stirrups." She instructed Kurt and helped him position his legs. "Now, Daddy, I need you to sit behind him and allow him to lean on you and Grandparents, I need you to be on either side of him and hold his legs when necessary." Shannon told them as she sets up the light and puts on her gloves. She checked Kurt one final time.

"You seem to be fully dilated which is good. Now, I want you to push on the contraction as hard as you can for 10 seconds. Bare down as hard as you can. You have to keep pushing on each contraction. If you need to stop for a minute, thats okay. This is at your pace. You are setting the pace for this. Listen to your body, okay?" Shannon finished and Kurt shakily nodded and swallowed hard.

The first contraction hit and Kurt pushed with all his might, bearing down silently as the doctor counted down from ten. When she hit one, he let out a big breath and fell back into Blaine.

"I dont think I can do this. This hurts too much." Kurt cried as another contraction hit.

"It will all be over soon Kurt, I promise. You just have to get through this pushing and we can meet our baby." Blaine coached as Kurt pushed again.

After an hour of pushing, Kurt started to lose his resolve.

"This baby isnt coming out!" Kurt yelled through a push. He fell back into Blaine for the millionth time that night as the tiredness swept over him.

"I know it doesnt feel like progress but we are getting closer, Kurt. I can almost feel the babys head now." Shannon confirmed.

Kurt whined as another contraction hit him at full force. "Cmon, Kurt, just a couple more and we can finally meet our baby!" Blaine coached as he gently pushed Kurt forward to push.

A couple of pushes and Shannon finally announced that the head is visible and Kurt has to give two good pushes.

"You two grab his legs and push them toward him and Blaine you need to keep him up by gently pushing on his middle back. Kurt, two more and this baby will be born. Youre almost done." Shannons nurse got a towel and obediently waited to catch the baby. "Kurt, give me a nice big push." She instructed.

Kurt heaved and screamed as he felt searing pain and pressure as he pushed harder.

"It hurts! Oh god it fucking burns! Make it stop!" Kurt screamed as his eyes turned scarlet and his fangs appeared.

Blaine watched in amazement as Kurt gave his final big push and birthed his child. He almost missed the doctor telling them his baby was born as Kurt fell for the last time against him.

"Its a boy!" Shannon announced. Jon and Alex started to cry and Blaine gently got up and laid Kurt down, going over to the doctor. "Do you want to cut the cord, Dad?" Shannon asked and Blaine instantly nodded. He was handed the scissors and she showed him where to cut.

The nurse suctioned out the babys nose and mouth and a piercing scream was heard throughout the room. A set of healthy lungs. Blaine looked to Kurt and noticed his droopy eyes zeroed in on the baby. The nurse brought the baby to the station and cleaned him, weighed him and swaddled him in a blue blanket.

"Heres Daddy." The nurse cooed as she put the baby in Kurts waiting arms.

Blaine looked in aww as he watched his mate finally holding their child. There was nothing in the world that could beat this scene. The look Kurt was giving the baby was pure love and Blaine was the happiest he could be that they finally have what they wanted for so long. With all the loss the faced, Blaine could finally say that his life was complete.

Jon went to his son and gave him a crushing hug. "Im so happy for you, son. You and Kurt deserve this and Im glad I was here to witness it. Your mother and I will leave you to get acquainted with your child. Call us when you are ready for visitors." Jon said as he kissed Kurt of on the forehead and the babys. Alex did the same and they quietly left the room, leaving the couple and their new addition.

The baby had quieted down and Kurt was looking down at him and talking to him in a hushed voice. Blaine apparently spaced out because he heard his mate call his name.

"Blaine, are you crying?" Kurt laughed, letting the baby grab his finger.

"Huh? Yes, I am. Im so happy and grateful for you right now." Blaine walked over to the bed and sat next to Kurt, touching his babys cheek. He let out a breath when the baby grabbed his finger and held tight.

"I think he know who you are." Kurt playfully said. "As you were saying?"

"Im just so happy right now. You gave birth to our child even after all the bad. Im so grateful for you giving me and us a little baby. I just cant wait to be a Dad." Blaine was crying when he finished and Kurt smiled and kissed his mate.

"Well, Im Daddy and your Papa. What are we going to name him?" Kurt asked as he shifted slightly, rousing the baby who began to make a face of discomfort. "Ah, dont cry my little prince. Daddy has to get comfortable too." Kurt gently rocked the baby until he settled down and fell back asleep.

"I liked Gabriel for a boy since I was little. Its a pretty name and a good name for when he takes over the chair when I step down." Blaine suggested as he pushed the curly hair off of the baby forehead.

"I like that name. I guess youre little Gabriel, sweet prince. Poor thing has Papas hair. Im sorry for that." Kurt laughed as Blaine scoffed and looked offended.

"Im sure our hair mixed will give him the perfect head of hair. He has my unruly curls mixed with your thick locks. I happen to like my hair." Blaine retorted and smiled.

"I do to when its not swimming in hair gel, Mr. Dapper." Kurt ran his hand through Blaines un-gelled hair. "I love it when you let them out to breath. You can find a balance without killing your hair in gel. Gabriel will not learn hair care from you." Kurt quipped and he kissed Gabriels nose.

"We can decided who does what when he grows up a bit. Right now I just want to enjoy him. Give him up, its Papas turn." Blaine made grabby hands and Kurt rolled his eyes and handed Gabriel over. "Now, you need to rest and Ill take him out to meet everyone." Blaine said as he got up and headed toward the door.

"You better bring my baby back in one piece, Blaine Anderson!" Kurts demand became softer as Blaine closed the door and smiled at his mates antics.

"Lets go meet your Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles, hm?" Blaine suggested to Gabriel who was alert and looking around.

Once everyone met Gabriel, Blaine noticed how irritated he was becoming and decided it was good to go back to the room and feed him. His parents followed and they quietly entered the room, as to not disturb a sleeping Kurt.

"Do we know if he is a pure or a hybrid?" Jon asked and he held his grandson and rocking him back and forth.

"The doctor said he was pure. Which shocked me because Kurt is a hybrid and Im pure. The human gene is pretty strong in Kurt." Blaine answered, getting a bottle of blood ready for Gabriel.

"Well, we would love him either way. The fact that he is pure makes it a little easier to feed. We do have to be careful with sun exposure until he grows up a little and we can work on getting him tolerable to it." Alex added from her chair.

"Thank you guys for being here and helping us. We dont know a lot about taking care of a baby, let alone a pure blooded vampire baby. Im grateful for your help." Blaine twisted the nipple on the bottle and took Gabriel from his father and putting it to his mouth. Gabriel quickly latched on and started to suck greedily.

Blaine laughed softly at his son. "Youre hungry, huh? My sweet prince." Blaine murmured, forgotten that his parent were still there.

"Sweet prince?" Jon looked at Blaine with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh, yeah, thats just a name Kurt called him and it stuck. I think hes just happy that he survived. I can tell he is going to be spoiled." Blaine smiled sadly as he removed the bottle and draped Gabriel over his shoulder and patted his back firmly.

"Well, we are all happy he is here. We all cant wait to spoil him. He is going to be so loved and protected." Alex said and put out her hands once Gabriel burped. "Give me my grandbaby, mister." She demanded playfully as Blaine smiled and handed Gabriel over.

"I just cant wait to be a dad." Blaine said and Jon agreed and put his arm over his sons shoulder.

One month later

Being a parent has changed Kurt and Blaines life. Having a newborn is rewarding yet difficult. Gabriel was a relatively easy baby to take care off. He only cried when he was hungry and needed a changing and he liked to be held and slept through most of the night. His eyes became scarlet a week ago and Kurt and Blaine were told that the scarlet will go away when he is around one years old.

To put it short, Gabriel is an easy going baby and the new parents were grateful for that.

"Ugh." Kurt whined as he heard Gabriels cries from the nursery. Since they are both vampires, there is no need to have a baby monitor. When his cries didnt subside, Kurt dragged himself out of the bed, quickly kissed a sleeping Blaine, and went into the nursery.

The nursery was a pale purple and decorated with high end baby furniture, toys and a closet full of designer clothes. Kurt was proud of how the room turned out and was grateful for Blaines pocket book because he wouldnt have been able to afford it any other way. Kurt smiled as he walked up to the crib and lifted his screaming child from the bed.

"Whats wrong, my sweet prince?" Kurt cooed as he rocked Gabriel. "Are you dirty?" Kurt asked as he checked Gabriels diaper. "No, then you must be hungry. Lets get you something to eat then." Kurt continued to talk to his son as he grabbed a bottle of blood from the cooler. He sat in the rocking chair and watched as his son drink from the bottle.

While he was rocking the baby, Kurt began to hum a lullaby and leaned his head on the chair and looked down lovingly at his child. Once the bottle was empty, Kurt put Gabriel over his shoulder and began to pat his back. He looked up when he heard the door open and smiled when Blaine came through and sat in front of him.

"What are you doing up?" Kurt asked as Gabriel let out a little burp.

"Just wanted to see how my boys are doing." Blaine replied as Kurt shifted Gabriel into a cradle.

"Were fine. He was just hungry. I couldnt live with myself if I ignored his cries." Kurt looked at his baby boy and he slept.

"Kurt," Blaine prompted and he continued when Kurt looked at him. "You know I love you right?" He asked and smiled when he got a nod. "And I love the fact that you birthed our child and Im the luckiest person alive to have you and Gabriel. I love you even when you get a little bitchy. I love you when you get kind of quirky. I love you when you let go and smile. I just love you and Im so happy that you decided to be my mate for life. Im blessed that I have you and Im even more blessed that we have a child after the first one we lost. I know we swore our love and became mates already, but I know you are a hopeless romantic and I want to ask you something very important to tie everything up."

Kurts eyebrows scrunched in confusion at Blaines speech and paused. "What do you mean tie everything up?" He asked as he looked at his mate.

Blaine took a deep breath and locked eyes with Kurt.

"What Im saying is that we should make it official and show everyone our love. So, Kurt Hummel," Blaine said as he reached in his pocket and took out a ring. "Will you do the pleasure of marrying me?" Blaine finally asked as he looked at his shocked mate and hopefully fiancée.

"… What?" Kurt whispered as he looked at Blaine.
