He looked at him “What?”

Kurt looked at him “Who are you?”

He held his hand “I’m your husband, Blaine.”

Kurt shook his head “Are you insane!? I’m only seventeen I’m not married!”

His heart broke, “He doesn’t remember me.”

“Mhm..Okay Uh, I’ll go get the doctor.”

Kurt nodded “And get my dad while your at it.”

He came back with the doctor. “Well, Kurt, welcome back.” She smiled “I’m Doctor Meyers I’ve been in charge of your case for the past few days.”

Kurt nodded “Hi.”

She flashed her flashlight in his eyes and checked his blood pressure and heart beat. “Kurt, do you know where you are?”

Kurt nodded “The hospital.”

She nodded “Yes, do you know why?”

“Car accident”

She nodded “Do you know who this is?” She pointed to Blaine.

Kurt shook his head “N-no, he claims to be my husband.”

She nodded “Kurt can you tell me what the date is?”

Kurt nodded “November 7, 2010.”

His heart broke, that’s the day before they met. He took his hand “Kurt, sweetie, it’s March 22, 2020.”

Kurt looked at him as if he had twenty heads “No it’s not! It’s November 7, 2010 I just told you that! Seriously where’s my dad?”

He looked at the doctor who was looking at Kurt sadly. He really didn’t want to do this a second time, it was hard enough seeing Kurt losing his father the first time. “Sweetie, your father died, about two months ago.”

Kurt shook his head letting go of Blaine’s hand. “Yo-you’re lying! He’s fine! He just got out of the hospital a few months ago! He’s okay! What type of sick game are you playing?!”

He took Kurt’s hand again “Ba- Kurt. I would never lie to you about something like that! I am so sorry Kurt. I am, I’m telling you the truth.”

Kurt looked at him with horrified eyes as he continued “He had another heart attack about two months ago and needed open-heart surgery.”

He swallowed the lump in his throat this was killing him he knew how he would react to this and it was going to break his heart. “Kurt, he-his heart wasn’t strong enough to survive it. I’m so sorry.”

Kurt looked at him with tears rolling down his cheeks, he saw the sincerity and truth in Blaine’s eyes. “Y-you’re not kidding a-are you…Blake?”

He shook his head smiling softly “It’s Blaine.” His smile faded “No, I’m not. I wish I was, god I wish I was…”

“W-why?” Kurt cried, he started sobbing and screaming “NO! DAD! I NEED YOU!” And it broke his heart. He was screaming and writhing so much he needed to be sedated, but Blaine never let go of his husband’s hands. He only let go when Kurt was sleeping. Doctor Meyers looked at him. “Will you come with me? I’m sure you have some questions.”

He nodded and followed her and sat down in a chair she offered him coffee but he declined. “I know this is hard on you Blaine.”

He looked up at her in shock. “No you don’t.”

“Mr. Anderson-“

“I just had to tell my husband who doesn’t even fucking know me that his father died. Do you know how hard that was for me? He didn’t lose his father once but twice! Seeing him go through that pain once was more than enough but having to tell him again and I had to relive that, breaks my fucking heart. I cannot stand to see him in so much pain!”

He took a shaky breath and continued “The fact that he doesn’t fucking know who I am, breaks my heart. We’ve been together nearly ten years and we just got married. He won’t remember our first kiss, our first date, our first time making love, or graduation.”

He sobbed “He won’t remember my p-proposal on the staircase we met on…our –our w-wedding. I cannot even stand it!”

She nodded “I understand.”

He shook his head “The only way you’d fucking know is if you went through the same thing!”

She shook her head “N-no I haven’t but I’ve definitely been through these cases before.”

He scoffed “Then you have no fucking clue how I feel right now!”

She nodded “I-I guess not.”

He sighed and asked the question he was dreading but needed to know the answer to. “Is this going to be permanent?” he asked.

She sighed “Personally, I am not one hundred percent sure. It is possible, but then again maybe not.”

He looked at her curious “What do you mean maybe?”

She smiled sadly “Unfortunately his head injury was pretty serious I won’t lie to you about that. However, if Kurt wakes up and remembers what you told him a few moments ago, it is possible that he will gain his memory back.”

“R-really?”

She nodded “Yes it is quite possible.”

His heart raced at the thought of his husband getting his memory back, but how would he get Kurt to remember ten years worth of memories? “W-what…how can we do that?”

She sighed “Well, photos, home videos, stories, even smells may trigger it.”

He smiled at the news “It’s a pretty good thing Kurt never threw anything away then. Wh-what do you want me to do when he get’s released…he doesn’t know me.”

She nodded “Well, I think that he should go home with you. But I have a question for you, did anything major besides Burt’s passing happen in his family after November 7,2011?”

He nodded “Yeah, his father re-married to our friend Finn Hudson’s mother Carole. He’s gained a mother and step-brother and is pretty close to both.”

“Are they here?” she asked.

He shook his head “No, they went home to get some rest but should be back soon.”

She nodded “I think it would be best for you to notify them of what’s going on.”

He nodded “I will, I’ll call them in a few minutes I just have one more question…how am I going to get him to trust me enough to come back to our apartment?”

She smiled “Well, I’m sure that seeing Finn and Carole will help him remember some what and will convince them to go home with you. But I suggest you being with him as much as possible while he’s here, I suspect he’ll be able to return home by the end of this week.”

He nodded, as if he was going to leave his side. For better or for worse, they vowed the other day. “I won’t leave his side.”

She nodded “Well, I have a few other patients to see, make that call. Your husband should be waking up soon.”

He nodded and went to go see Cooper who was waiting outside. “He’s been stirring for a few minutes. You should go inside. What did the doctor say?”

He sighed “That it might not be permanent if he remembers what I told him earlier. I need to do some things to help trigger it, a little bit at a time and I need to gain his trust before he goes home, which should be interesting.”

Cooper nodded “You can do it Blaine, I know you can. You gained his trust in a day ten years ago.”

He nodded “Yeah you’re right…can you do me a favor?”

Cooper nodded “Sure anything bro. What’s up?”

He handed Cooper his phone “Call Carole and Finn. Tell them to come back to the hospital, let them know what’s going on. I’d do it but…I-“

Cooper shook his head taking his phone. “No need to explain Blaine. I get it.” Cooper looked at him “You gonna be okay?”

He sighed and looked at his brother trying not to let the tears fall. Cooper pulled him into his arms and held him close “Let it out Blaine.” That’s all it took, Blaine completely lost it and sobbed in his brother’s arms as he whispered sweet nothings in his ear.

“I can’t l-lose hi-him Coop.”

Cooper kissed his head “You won’t, he’ll come back to you. He told you that he’d never say goodbye to you. He’ll come back.”

He sniffled “Think so?”

Cooper chuckled “I know so.” Cooper let go of his brother and wiped his tears “Now, take some deep breaths and go back in that room and be there for Kurt when he wakes up okay? Be strong for him, I know you can do it”

He nodded He knew he had to be strong for him, Kurt was going to be so scared. He hugged his brother “Thanks Coop. I love you.”

Cooper smiled “I love you too Blainers. Now get your ass in there.”

He chuckled wiped his tears and went back into his room and sat on the chair next to him holding his hand, mentally preparing himself for when Kurt woke up. He rubbed soothing circles on his husbands hand humming Teeenage dream softly hoping it was going to help.

After what seemed like hours, but was really only an hour and half. Kurt started to stir. “Kurt, wake up honey.”

Kurt looked over at Blaine and opened his eyes “Hmm.”

He smiled at his husband “Hey sleepy head, did you have a nice nap?”

Kurt shrugged “I had this dream where m-my dad died and I had a husband, isn’t that funny Blake…” Kurt furrowed his eyebrows “No, Blaine right?”

He nodded “Yeah, I’m Blaine.”

Kurt’s eyes widened “Wait…if your Blaine. That me-means. It’s true, dad’s really gone isn’t he?”

He sighed and nodded sadly “Yeah, I’m so sorry Kurt.” He looked at his husband squeezing his hand softly and asked “Is there anything you want to ask me sweetie?”

Kurt nodded “W-was, was he in any p-pain?”

He shook his head “No, he was in surgery when he passed, he didn’t feel a thing.”

“Promise?”

He nodded “I promise.” He kissed Kurt’s hand “Anything else?”

Kurt nodded “J-just one more thing…”

“What is it?”

Kurt sighed. “D-did I get to s-say good-bye?” Kurt’s eyes began to water “ Please tell me I got to say goodbye to my father. Please.” Kurt pleaded.

Tears came to his eyes and he nodded “Y-yeah Kurt. Yeah you got to say good-bye. Y-you didn’t want to say good-bye, you knew he’d get better. But your dad insisted. A-and you did.”

Kurt squeezed his eyes shut and listened to his surroundings, he heard the beeping of his heart monitor, the sound of his shaky breathing and the sound of Blaine’s sniffling and opened his eyes, “Oh my god…B-Blaine.”

He took his hand “What is it sweetie?”

“I-I r-remember t-that d-day.” He sobbed.

His heart skipped a beat, this was good but also sad at the same time. He wanted to make sure this wasn’t just a fluke. “Sweetie, I know this is going to be hard, but I want you to tell me what you remember okay?”

Kurt sighed “I-I don’t know Blaine.”

He squeezed his hand “P-please, for me?” he pleaded.

Kurt nodded. “O-okay. Here’s w-what I r-remember.”
