A scent enveloped him and he became aware of somebody near him. He turned around and saw who he was probably looking for. The man was taller than him and looked to be a few years older. He had ice blue eyes and a stone cold expression. His jaw was squarer than Blaine's and they had the same nose but he could tell there were differences.
“Are you Kurt?” the man muttered, just loud enough for Kurt to hear.
“Yes. Are you Cooper?”
The man nodded and moved closer to Kurt. He held out a hand and Kurt shook it. Cooper pulled away and put his hands back in his leather jacket. Kurt crossed his arms and faced the man.
“Are we meeting him here?” Cooper asked.
“No. We're going to our house.”
“Okay...um...”
“What's wrong Cooper?” Kurt asked confused.
“It's been hundreds of years...I haven't seen him since he left...”
“It'll be okay. Come on,” Kurt said. The house wasn't far away and the walk took a matter of minutes. When they got to the house he left Cooper on the porch and went into the house. Erica and Blaine were on the couch watching a movie. Erica looked like she had been crying and it made Kurt curious.
“Hey, babe,” Blaine said jumping up and coming over to him. Kurt kissed him and then took his hands in his.
“I have something for you,” Kurt said. Blaine looked at him confused and Kurt walked away from him. Kurt went out onto the porch and nodded at Cooper. He walked back into the house hoping Blaine didn't freak out on him.
“I'll explain everything to you but first...”
“Kurt...who is...?”
“Hey, Andrew...”
“Thomas?” Blaine's eyes widened as he took in his old brother. Kurt felt the mixed pain and joy in the bond and moved over to the couch to Erica. She looked at him incredulously and he just shook his head.
“I had help...but I got him.”
“Kurt...” she said. Kurt looked up as Cooper looked at his brother expectantly. Kurt got up and went to Blaine's side and kissed his cheek. Blaine turned to look at him as a smile slowly crept along his face. Cooper moved closer to Blaine and the brothers enveloped each other in a hug. Kurt stepped back and smiled.
“I don't believe it...” Blaine said.
“Neither can I. I was hoping to one day see you again but I knew it probably wouldn't happen,” Cooper said.
“How did you change?” Blaine asked.
“I'll explain that later,” Cooper said.
“Don't ever call me Thomas by the way. It's Cooper James now.”
“James after our grandmother?”
“Yeah...took care of me for so long and I thought I'd take that name.”
“Then don't ever call me Andrew again.”
“I know...it's Blaine now. Kurt told me.”
With that, Blaine turned to Kurt and jumped on him. Kurt laughed as Blaine held him against his chest. Blaine pulled away and cupped his face and kissed him. Kurt pulled away smiling and looked at Cooper.
“Why don't you two go get caught up. I want to talk to Erica,” Kurt said. The brother's moved towards the kitchen and Kurt smiled warmly. He moved over to the couch and sat down. He took Erica's hands in his and looked at her concerned.
“What happened?”
“What makes you say that?”
“Because, you look like you've been crying and your aura isn't as bright as it normally is,” Kurt replied.
“It was the movies we were watching,” she said shrugging.
“Bull shit, Erica. Come on...what's going on?” Kurt asked hoping to get her to talk.
“Tyson...we've had some problems lately. It's been a while now. I think he found someone else. We fought and I came over here.”
“Oh, Erica,” Kurt said hugging her. Erica had been through hell her whole life. They thought she had finally found someone to be happy with. He didn't even suspect them having problems. Erica was pretty damn good at hiding things.
“I'm thinking about leaving him. I want to be happy and if I'm happier on my own then...I'll do that.”
“You know, before you met anybody you were this bad ass bitch that Blaine adored. Now, you've softened he still adores you though and so do I. You didn't need somebody to make you happy. You were happy on your own. If it needs to go back to that for a while then maybe you should. I don't mean to be an ass but that's just how I see it,” Kurt said.
“I want to leave before he does...prove I'm not a push over.”
“Erica, if there's one thing I know, you're not a push over. Come on, let's head to bed. You can stay in our room. I think they'll be down here for a while,” Kurt said. Erica nodded and they went upstairs. Kurt put a movie in the TV and they laid down on the bed watching it. He looked over at Erica a few times and smiled at her.
“I'm hungry...let's go.”
Kurt rolled his eyes and followed her out of the house to hunt.
