Part 3

Panic set it once he saw his husband double over in pain.

He pulled Kurt up. “What’s wrong?”

“It- It hurts!”

He lifted his chin up “Kurt, sweetie, you need to be more specific. What hurts?”

“My side, my stomach, my back.”

He took a deep breath trying to keep calm “Is it just one steady pain or does it come and go?”

Kurt took a deep breath “C-comes and g-goes.”

“Oh god…”

“Blaine what is it?”

He took his hand “Kurt, I think you’re in labor.”

“What!? No no no no no! I’m not due for another month!”

He squeezed his hand “Sweetie, it’s going to be okay. Do you want me to call Carole?”

“Y-yeah.”

He grabbed the phone from beside him and dialed her number.

A very sleepy Carole answered ”H-hello?”

“Carole, thank god! It’s Blaine.”

“Blaine, it’s almost 1 in the morning, what’s wrong?”

“I think Kurt’s in labor.”

That woke her up. “What!? Are you sure?!”

“No! I’m not! That’s why I called you!”

She sighed”Put him on the phone.”

“Sweetie, Carole wants to talk to you.”

“H-hello?”

“Hey Kurt…what’s going on?”

“Mom! Blaine thinks I’m in labor…but I-UGH…I don’t know.”

“Can you tell me what you’re pain feels like and where it is?”

“It’s like…in my abdomen, feels like really bad cramps and it comes and goes.

Carole sighed “Okay, Kurt sweetie, I believe you are in labor.”

“Oh god…” he sobbed.

“Sweetie its okay, you’re close enough to your due date and the baby will be okay and so will you. Just breathe deeply okay. Can you put Blaine back on?”

“Sure.”

“It’ll be okay Kurt. I love you.”

“I-I love you too.” Kurt handed the phone back to Blaine.

“Carole?”

“Okay, I believe he’s in labor, here’s what you need to do. You need to time his contractions, and write when they start and when they end. You need to call his doctor and most importantly, be there with him, comfort him best you can and keep him calm. He’s scared and I know you are too and everything will be okay, but you need to focus on Kurt for now okay sweetie?”

“Okay…”

“Okay, now I’m going back to bed, but call me when you guys are going to the hospital and Burt and I will meet you there okay?”

“Okay Bye Carole.”

“Bye sweetie. I love you.”

“Love you too.” He hung up the phone and called his doctor who pretty much repeated what Carole said.

“W-what did she say.”

He sat behind him. “Well, to time your contractions and when they get to be five minutes apart to go to the hospital.”

“O-k…”

He kissed his temple “It’s okay Kurt. I’m here, everything will be okay.”

“Blaine…” he groaned as he grasped Blaine’s hand.

“Breathe baby breathe.” He tempted to do as he said it helped somewhat, but not much after what seemed like a lifetime but very brief, the contraction passed and he loosened his grip on his husband’s hand.

“Good job Kurt.” Blaine had Kurt’s iPhone in hand and was recording the times in the notes.

“Blaine…I-I need to lie down.”

They changed their position and Kurt was laying down next to Blaine in the fetal position and he and rubbed his back. “You okay?”

He didn’t reply.

“Kurt, sweetheart?”

“I’m scared Blaine.”

Blaine was scared too…but he needed to be strong for Kurt…he needed him now.“It’s okay Kurt. Everything is going to be okay. I’m here, it’ll be okay, I promise. I love you.”

He sniffled “I love you too Blaine.” He kissed him softly, he was still scared as hell but he was comforted knowing that Blaine wasn’t going anywhere.

He grabbed Blaine’s hand “Oh God!! Blaine!!”

Blaine rubbed his back “It’s okay Kurt, breathe sweetheart.”

He sighed when the contraction left. “Blaine…”

“I know baby, I know…is there anything I can do?”

He looked at Blaine, “C-can you sing to me?”

Blaine kissed his forehead “Of course I will.”

He smiled as Blaine began to sing Teenage dream a lot slower.

“You think I’m pretty without any make up on
You think I’m funny when I tell the punch line wrong
I know you get me, so why let my walls come down

Let’s go all the way tonight
No regrets
Just love
We can dance, until we die
You and I
We’ll be young forever

You make me feel like I’m living a
Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on,
I can’t sleep
Let’s run away and don’t ever look back
Don’t ever look back

We drove to Cali, and got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and, built a for out of sheets
I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece
I’m complete.”

“Blaine! Oh god!!” he cried gripping Blaine’s hand

After it passed Kurt looked at him “That was beautiful Blaine…the song I mean, not the contraction.”

“Kurt…That was…that was five minutes from the last…”

His eyes widened…”Are…are you sure?”

“Yeah…Do, do you want to wait for the next one to be sure?”

He nodded ‘Y-yeah. Good thing I packed a bag the other day.”

Blaine chuckled “I guess so. I’ll call Finn and Rachel have them come here to get us, You’re going to want me in the back with you right?”

He nodded “Y-yeah.”

Blaine called them and they were on their way.

Five minutes later Kurt was squeezing his hand. “Blaine! Oh my god!”

“Yeah we need to go to the hospital. I’m gonna go get the bags and your body pillow and put them by the door. I have your iPod.”

He nodded. “O-ok. I’ll call Mom and Dad.”

He grabbed the phone and dialed their number.

“Hello?”

He groaned “Mom, it’s me.”

“Kurt, sweetie, how are you holding up?”

“I’ve been b-better. Finn and Rachel are on their way to get us, meet us at the hospital?”

“Okay. Yeah we’ll meet you there. It’ll be okay sweetheart hang in there. I love you.”

“I love you too, I’ll see you there.”

Blaine walked in the bedroom. “Finn and Rachel are here, you ready.”

He nodded “Y-yeah, FUCK!”

Blaine took his hand “Breathe…”

It passed and he nodded “Le-let’s go.”

Blaine helped him up and Finn was waiting by the door. “You want me to carry you?”

He sighed “I don’t care…”

Finn scooped him up and Blaine hopped in the backseat. He placed him in the backseat and he laid on Blaine’s lap. He was taking in huge gulps of air while he wasn’t busy whimpering in pain. Blaine held his hand and spoke quiet, comforting words whenever he squeezed his hand.

The car hit a pothole and he cried out as his body jostled on the backseat; he didn’t have a seatbelt to hold him down. “OH GOD!”

Rachel groaned “Finn you dumbass! Watch the fucking road! Did you forget there was someone in labor back here?!”

“It hurts”, he cried, finally giving in to the urge to sob. “It hurts so bad.”

“I know, baby, I know”, Blaine whispered back. “Bear with it. We’ll be at the hospital soon.”

”Hang in there Kurt! We’re almost there! I called the hospital and your doctor before we left.” said Rachel. She turned to her husband “Finn go faster, don’t take your sweet ass time!”

A few moments later they reached the hospital. Kurt was crying freely at this point, there was no way he could walk into the hospital. “Finn, go get a wheelchair! He won’t be able to walk into the hospital.” Blaine said as he was getting the bags and pillow handing one to Rachel.

“Screw the damn wheel chair! I’ll carry him in myself!” Finn scooped him up and ran into the hospital.

“Finn!” he cried “Wait! I need Blaine! Wait!”

Finn stood at the entrance. “It’s gonna be okay bro.”

Blaine and Rachel reached them “Why the fuck did you run?”

Rachel scowled at him “You know I shouldn’t be even running or walking much. I just had a baby a few weeks ago!”

“Sorry guys! He’s in pain!”

“No shit Sherlock!” Blaine retorted. “You okay Baby?”

“I-I need you Blaine!” he moaned.

“Finn take the bag and give me Kurt.” Blaine ordered.

Blaine dropped the bag and took Kurt from Finn’s arms. “I’ve got you.”

They went to the Maternity ward, they were waiting for him and he was immediately checked into a room and set up.

Blaine’s phone went off. It was a text from Carole stating they were here. “Finn, go get mom and dad they’re here.”

Finn nodded and Rachel went with him. Carole and Burt came in a few minutes later.

Carole’s heart broke when she saw her son crying in pain knowing there wasn’t anything she could do about it. “Oh, sweetie.”

“Mom!” he cried

She rushed to his side, her maternal instincts kicking in immediately. “It’s okay sweetie I’m here.”

“It hurts Mom!”

“I know sweetie I know. It’s going to be okay, has anyone come to check you yet?”

He shook his head “N-no, we just got here.”

A few minutes later a woman came in and gasped “Kurt?”

He looked up and saw who the woman was; it was none other than Quinn Fabray. “Oh, my god.”

“Yeah…I’m going to be your nurse…but if you’re not comfortable with it, I can have—“

He shook his head “No! It’s better this way actually!”

She smiled “Well, I’m just going to check and see how far along you are.”

He nodded “O-okay.”

She smiled and put on some gloves. “Kurt, can you open your legs for me and try to relax?”

He nodded. “Y-yeah.” He grasped Blaine’s hand.

“Well, you’re 4 centimeters dilated.”

“FOUR!?”

“I know, it’ll be okay Kurt. I’ll be back later okay?”

He nodded “O-ok…thanks Quinn.”

She smiled and left.

“I can’t believe I’m only four centimeters dilated!” he groaned.

“It’s gonna be okay Kurt, I’m here.”

Carole smiled “Well, I’m gonna go get something to eat with Burt; you should try to get some rest sweetheart.”

He nodded “I’ll try.”

She gave him a kiss on the forehead and walked out of the room with Burt, leaving Blaine and Kurt alone.

“Oh god! Blaine!! ”

Blaine rubbed his thumb over the hand Kurt was squeezing as he cried through another contraction.

“I’m here…”

He groaned as it left him. “Blaine…I-I.”

“What is it baby?”

“I can’t do this!”

“Yes you can Kurt! I know you can!”

He shook his head “No, I can’t! I’m not like you Blaine! You’re the brave one not me!”

“Kurt…that’s not true.”

He chuckled “Blaine, it is though! You’ve gone and went to war and did all these terrifying things and had something I’ve never had, courage.”

“Kurt, while I have done that, you’re the courageous one! You had to go through an entire pregnancy alone minus the few weeks I was here on leave. You’re the bravest man I know Kurt, look at what you’re doing now.”

“Sobbing like a child?”

“No! You’re having a child! Something you’re not supposed to be able to do and I wouldn’t be able to do that. You are the courageous one.”

He just stared at Blaine.

“Baby, say something.”

“Get Quinn.”

Blaine nodded and called Quinn, she came running. “What is it Kurt?”

“I-I think my water just broke.”

Quinn quickly put on gloves and checked him. “Yep, you’re water just broke. And you’re five centimeters now, you’re halfway there, it won’t be long now. Hang in there.”

He nodded. “Okay…”

Blaine sighed seeing Kurt’s face, he was terrified “It’s going to be okay.”

“I-I know. They’re going to come closer together closer now and are going to be stronger. I’m so glad you’re here. I couldn’t do this without you.”

Blaine kissed his forehead “I’ll be right here, I’m not going to leave your side.”

“I-I love you.”

“I love you too.”

He groaned as another contraction tore through his body and it was a big one. “Fuck! Blaine, oh god! Help me!”

Blaine took his hands. “Do whatever you have to sweetie, Cry, scream, squeeze my hand. I’m here.”

He sobbed as it passed. “Blaine, just hold me.”

He moved a bit so Blaine could join him on the bed. Blaine held him to his chest rubbing his back as he cried.

Kurt was in so much pain. He sobbed as another passed through me. “Blaine, just make it go away! P-please make it go away.”

He saw the heartbroken look on his face. He had tears in his eyes as he said “Oh Kurt, I can’t. I wish I could baby, I wish I could. You know I would if I could.”

Blaine just held Kurt rubbing his back singing softly to him. Carole had joined them again and was sitting near the window she’d be there if they needed her.

He screamed as a contraction ripped through him. “BLAINE!”

“Focus on me baby, breathe!”

“I’m trying!” He moaned “It fucking hurts Blaine!”

Blaine kissed him “Shh, I know baby, I know. It’ll be all over soon.”

“I’m almost afraid to ask this but what time is it?”

Blaine sighed “Almost six…”

He groaned “Seriously?!”

“Yeah…It’ll be okay Kurt.”

“I’m tired, but this kid won’t let me sleep.”

Blaine kissed his cheek “Do you want to see if you can get the epidural?”

“I can’t have it, I’m too far along.”

Quinn came in just then to check on him. “Well Kurt, let’s see where we are.”

She smiled “You’re ready…”

He looked at her “What?”

“You’re ten centimeters…you’re ready to deliver.”

“Oh my god…”he whispered.

“I’m going to get an orderly to transport you Kurt, Blaine I need you to come with me, the doctor needs to talk to you.”

“W-wait Quinn! I can’t leave him!”

He sniffled “Blaine…it’s okay g-go. I’ll have Carole with me. I’ll be okay…”

“Kurt…”

Carole took his hand “Sweetie, go. I’ll be with him. He’ll be fine I promise.”

Blaine kissed him softly “I’ll be back I love you.”

“I love you too.”

Quinn wooshed him away and brought him to see Doctor Carter.

He began to cry. “I’m scared mom.”

“Shhh, it’s okay sweetie, you’re going to be a dad! I’m so proud of you. You’re doing so well!”

The orderly brought him to the delivery room. As soon as they made it he screamed “Oh my fucking god! I need to push mom!”

“It’s okay Kurt.”

“I need Blaine!”

Blaine sighed “Yes I understand everything! May I please go back to my husband now!?”

Doctor Carter nodded. Blaine left the room to join his husband it wasn’t hard to find him, he could hear him. Kurt’s face was flushed red from exertion, his hair a sweaty tangled mess on his head, and in agonizing pain.

“Kurt.”

He sobbed as he saw his husband. “Blaine!”

“I’m here. I’m here…its okay.”

“I need to push Blaine! Where the fuck is Doctor Carter!?”

Blaine kissed his forehead “She’s on her way.”

“I need you Blaine! Please baby! I can’t do this without you!”

Blaine lifted his chin catching his lips in a chaste kiss. “Hey, I’m right here, I’m not going anywhere. Where do you want me to be?”

“B-Behind me.” I sobbed as another contraction came through my body. “Please help me Blaine! Oh god I need to push!”

“I know, I know. We just need to wait until Doctor Carter gets back okay?”

Blaine rubbed his shoulders “I know baby; I know you need to push. You need to breathe and bear through it until Doctor Carter gets here.”

He sobbed and turned around to hang onto Blaine, hoping holding onto him would help him forget his urge to push, it didn’t. It broke Blaine’s heart to see Kurt in such pain, and there wasn’t anything he could do about it.

After what seemed like hours Doctor Carter came in. He turned around as she said “Are you ready to have this baby Kurt?”

“Are you seriously asking me this? Really? Nooo, I haven’t been screaming from agonizing pain wanting it to be over or anything. What do you think?!”

She chuckled “I’ll take that as a yes.”

He gave Doctor Carter a look that could kill as Quinn put Kurt’s feet on stirrups and he whimpered as she did so.

“Ok Kurt, the next contraction I want you to push okay?”

He nodded “Okay.”

“I’m here I’ve got you, give it all you got, I won’t let you fall.” Blaine whispered

“Oh god!” he groaned as the contraction hit him and he pushed with all his might through the contraction.

Quinn was counting loudly over his agonizing cries. Finally it ended and he whimpered

“Good job Kurt.” Said Blaine kissing his temple.

“I can’t take much more of this Blaine.”

“You can do this Kurt!”

He cried as the contractions were now a minute or two apart. He was in pure agony. “FUCK!” He screamed as a huge one tore through him pushing with everything he had.”

“4…5…6…PUSH KURT COME ON! 7…8…9…10!” Quinn counted loudly.

He leaned back into Blaine after the pain subsided and panted “Blaine…I-I”

Blaine kissed his cheek. “I know it hurts. We’re almost there sweetie you can do it!”

He shook his head “B-Blaine! I c-cant!”

“Yes you can baby! You have to I’m here with you! Grab my hands do what you need to scream cry you can do this Kurt!”

He nodded and grabbed his hands. “AH! FUCK!!” He screamed as he bore down to push again

“That’s it baby! You can do it!”

He stopped and breathed

Quinn smiled “You can do this Kurt!”

He moaned and pushed again screaming he felt everything.

Doctor Carter shook her head sighing “You’re going to have to push harder than that Kurt!”

”Excuse me? Harder?! How the fuck am I supposed to do that?! This is the hardest I can push!”

“Baby, I know it seems impossible-“

”Seems?”

Blaine continued “But you need to push harder okay?”

“I’ll try…” as he pushed harder. Screaming and crying.

He looked at him and sobbed “I c-can’t do this.”

Blaine looked at him “Yes you can baby!”

He grabbed him again and pushed harder “OH FUCK! BLAINE!!” It seemed like the harder he pushed the more it hurt.

He sobbed as he called “Oh Mom..”

She rubbed his forehead “Come on Kurt, you can do this! I know you can!”

He nodded and bared down pushing harder screaming a lot louder than he had all day. Blaine looked at him after and he had tears in his eyes.

He sighed “It’s-it’s okay….”

He looked at Carole and she knew exactly who he needed. She ran out calling his name. Burt ran in and took Kurt’s hand as he sobbed “Dad. I-I can’t!”

He gripped my hand “You can Kurt. Come on.”

He squeezed his dad’s hand and pulled Blaine close holding his neck screaming as he continued to push.

An hour and a half passed and still no baby. Kurt was getting worried as was everyone else.

“Blaine, I can’t, is the baby even crowning yet?”

He nodded “A little bit and yes you can! Come on baby! You’re doing great.”

He shook his head “Blaine I can’t anymore!” He looked at him sobbing

He let the tears that he was obviously holding back fall and said “If I could switch places with you I would but I can’t! You can do this! Come on.”

He nodded and looked at him with determination and pushed again screaming “BLAIIINE FUCK! THIS IS YOUR FAULT!”

Blaine looked at Burt who chuckled as he shook his head “Elizabeth said the same thing don’t worry about it.”

After the pain stopped he breathed a sigh of relief as Doctor Carter said “You’re doing great Kurt, the baby’s crowning.”

He sobbed realizing that he was going to be a dad and this agonizing pain was almost over! He pushed again, not screaming just whimpering as he concentrated, how he did both at the same time, he’ll never know.

He could faintly hear Blaine crying softly behind me. He looked at him. “Hey, it’s okay.”

He wiped his face. “I’m sorry I’m falling apart here. You need me. I’m okay really.”

“Blaine, Sweetie, its- Holy shit!” He grabbed his hands and pushed, He’d think that he would’ve gotten used to the pain by now. But he didn’t. Finally it passed. “It’s okay to cry you know I know you’re scared and so am I.”

He shook his head “I’m fine.”

He felt another contraction hit me once again and He pushed as Quinn counted wiping my head. “8…9…10! Great Kurt.”

He fell against Blaine’s chest. “Blaine, I don’t know how much longer I can do this.”

“You can do this Kurt”

He nodded and squeezed his hand as he pushed.

Doctor Carter shook her head “Come on Kurt, you need to push harder than that.”

He groaned “I’m doing the best I can here! I’ve been in labor oh I don’t know five six hours?”

Blaine rubbed his back. “Kurt, you can push harder, I know you can! ”

He screamed and pushed again, trying to push harder than he had been.

“Kurt, I need you to push harder.”

“Blaine, I can’t push anymore, I can b-barely keep my eyes open.”

Blaine kissed my temple. “I know you're tired baby, I am too! You need to push harder! The harder you push the sooner this will all be over and you can get some sleep.”

He sighed and pushed harder “Blaine! Holy shit!”

“Keep that up Kurt, it’ll be over sooner!”

He was so exhausted; this was taking a lot out of me. “Fuck! Blaine, it hurts so much! Oh my god!”

“Keep going baby, you’re doing great!”

I panted leaning against Blaine’s chest once again after it subsided, “Is the baby crowning?”

He nodded “Yeah the baby’s crowning!”

Suddenly mid contraction Doctor Carter yelled “Kurt! Stop Pushing!”

He stopped “What? Why?!”

“Don’t push okay? The chord is wrapped around the baby’s neck I need to move it.”

He was scared now “Is the baby going to be okay?”

She nodded “Yes Hun, just don’t push okay.”

He nodded and leaned into Blaine. He seriously felt the need to push but he didn’t and just screamed “Oh god, I- I need to push!”

Blaine kissed my forehead “Breathe baby, breathe. You’re almost there. The baby has a lot of hair.”

He chuckled “I figured the baby would-“

He was interrupted by another contraction. “Oh god! Blaine!”

Blaine kissed my cheek. “I know it hurts baby I know. Just breathe come on Hun.”

He fought his body’s urge to push by staying back against Blaine with his head supported on his shoulder sobbing.

“You’re doing so well baby, I’m so proud of you, just hold on for a little longer ok? I love you and I’m here, just hold on to me I’ve got you!”’ He cooed into my ear through the contraction and to my surprise it helped. He had been here with me supporting me through every contraction.

He breathed with him fighting the urge to push which was nearly impossible.“Fuck! I need to push.”

Quinn shook her head “Not yet, keep breathing.”

He grasped Blaine’s hand sobbing. It hurt so much he really needed to push “FUCK! Oh my god!”

“I know baby I know! Focus on me okay. You can do this I know you can. I love you so much.”

“I-I love you too. I need to push I can’t oh fuck! ” He sobbed “Quinn! I can’t hold this off much longer it’s getting to be too much!”

“She’s almost got it Kurt, one minute!”

He sobbed into Blaine’s chest, he’d moved slightly so Kurt could cry and lean on him “Shh almost there sweetie.”

“Okay Kurt push hard for me okay?”

“FINALLY!” he pushed hard as he heard them laughing.

“1…2…3…That’s great Kurt! 4…5…6…”

“AH SHIIT!”

“8…9…10…Great job Kurt!”

“I can’t do this anymore…I can’t”

Blaine turned his head towards him. “Yes you can Kurt, you are so close. Only a few more times! A few more times Kurt I promise!”

He nodded “Okay….” And used the little energy he had left and pushed hard. Screaming and holding his husband’s hands so hard.

“1…2…3…4…5…Come on Kurt! 6…7 Kurt open your eyes! Look!.”

He opened his eyes and looked and sobbed as saw his baby leave his body. “Oh my god!”

Doctor Carter smiled “Great Job Kurt! Congratulations it’s a girl!”

He heard Blaine let out a choked sob behind him after he cut the chord and he started crying even harder as he felt his husband kiss his head while whispering, “We have a daughter Baby!”

“Oh my god…she’s beautiful!”

Blaine wrapped his arms around him “You did such a great job Kurt. I’m so proud of you I love you so much!”

“I-I love you too Blaine!”

Quinn brought their daughter over to them smiling “She’s perfect Kurt; She’s 6 lbs 10 oz and 21 inches long.”

Kurt looked at Quinn as he took his daughter who was screaming in his friend’s arms and she immediately stopped when Kurt took her. “Thank you Quinn for everything.”

“Of course. She’s beautiful.”

Blaine admired his husband with his daughter. He took out his phone “Kurt, look at me and smile”

“Blaine! I just had a baby like three minutes ago could you not?”

“Hey this is the first time you’re holding her this needs to be documented!”

He rolled his eyes and smiled tearfully with his daughter.

“New Wallpaper!”

Carole and Burt smiled at them “She’s beautiful Kurt, does she have a name yet?”

Blaine looked at Kurt nodding. “Yes she does, go get Finn and Rachel.”

Burt went to get the two and they came in. “Oh my god Kurt!” Rachel cooed. “She’s absolutely beautiful! What’s her name?”

“This is Harmony Elizabeth Anderson, weighing 6 pound, 10 ounces and 21 inches long. She’s perfect in every way.”

Blaine smiled “Just like her Dad.”

He chuckled “Her daddy isn’t that bad either. She looks just like you Blaine.”

“You think?”

He nodded “I know.”

He smiled “I’m so happy you’re home and you were here for this.”

“Me too. How are you feeling?”

Kurt smiled at his daughter and then at his husband “I have my husband home and isn’t going to war ever again, and my beautiful daughter. I’m set. This was the best Christmas ever…and you and Harmony…being here together…well, that’s the ultimate Christmas present.”

Blaine smiled tearfully “I love you so much. Merry Christmas Kurt.”

“I love you too Blaine. Merry Christmas.”

Harmony started to cry. “Hey, don’t you cry, I didn’t forget about you. Daddy and I love you Harmony, Merry Christmas.”

The others left Kurt and Blaine alone to admire their new daughter, their ultimate Christmas present.
