"Dude, how are we gonna be able to tie up these balloons?"

Blaine's standing in the doorway with his hands full of luggage. Kurt's rooted to the spot with his jaw in the ground. Finn's holding a bag of colorful balloons, padding into the hallway meeting the two confused men.

"Balloons? Are we gonna fly to paradise falls?", Blaine asks eyeing both Kurt and Finn.

"Hey Blaine, dude, you're home early!" Finn went forward and hugged the shorter man, clapping him on the back. "I thought you were gonna come back tomorrow, how was the tour?"

"They tour was great, thanks for asking! But yeah, I wanted to surprise Kurt by coming home early, but I don't know....." Blaine looked to Kurt who stared at Blaine. Finn knew he had to do something and tickled him in the side. Kurt cringed and laughed a little, looking the at Finn who pointed to Blaine. Blaine looked at Kurt with a hurt expression on his face.

"Blaine," Kurt relaxed his body and stepped forward to hug Blaine around his waist, laying his head on his shoulders. Blaine dropped his bags and wound his arms around Kurt, he directed his eyes to Finn who nodded and picked up Blaine's luggage and placed it by the hallway stairs. "You're home, you're home, you're home, you're home."

Kurt kept repeating it to himself until Blaine placed a finger on Kurt's lips which he then kissed deeply. For a minute, they just stood there, holding each other until they had to part for air.

"Sorry, I'm just so shocked to see you, not that it's a bad shock or anything, it's a happy shock, you know like when you find out you still have ice cream in the freezer or that your favorite film is on..."

"Kurt, you're rambling", Blaine interrupted Kurt.

"Sorry", Kurt smiled. Straightening his pose he looked into Blaine's eyes and smiled widely.

"No worries. I'm just happy to see you. I wanted to surprise you and come home early, and I can clearly see that you were surprised. So I guess I succeeded, anyway, I thought we could eat out tonight, to celebrate our little one?"

"Sounds wonderful, let's ask Finn shall we?"

"Finn!", Blaine called through the apartment. Finn stuck his head through the doorway to the living room in confirmation. "Kurt and I are going out tonight to celebrate Kurt's pregnancy, you wanna join us?"

Finn contemplated the question in his head. "Thanks, but no. You should go out and celebrate together, I'm just gonna stay in with Transformers 3 and some Taco Bell".

"Transformers three!? Dude, I wanna see that one too!" Blaine pouted, which quickly disappeared when Kurt gave him a judging stare. "Anyway, you have to come with us next time, and feel free to eat whatever we have in the cupboards if you're hungry".

"Thanks dude", Finn responded with a smile.

"So, where are you guys going?"

"Blaine went all fancy on me and managed to get a table at Per Se. It's in Time Warner Center, you know that skyscraper by Columbus circle?" Kurt was fixing a few strands of his hair in the mirror and tying his sleek black tie around his neck. Finn was observing Kurt fixing the last of the details of his evening outfit in the hallway.

"Oh that one, yeah, that's quite some restaurant". "

"Should I wear a tie? I don't know, maybe it's too much", Kurt loosened the tie and took it off. He unbuttoned the first buttons of his crisp white short-sleeved shirt.

"So, how do you feel about Blaine coming home early?"

"Happy, I really missed him even though he wasn't gone for too long. Although I'm sad we weren't able to hold the surprise party, it would've been so much fun."

"What would've been fun?", Blaine asked as he came down the stairs. Blaine was sporting a dark navy suit to match Kurt's navy dress pants.

"If Rachel had sung 'Run Joey Run' as our nationals solo during senior year!", Kurt quickly came up with. "I'll show it to you later when we get back home".

"Sure, sounds great. Are you ready to go?"

"Aye Captain" Kurt grabbed his phone and wallet. "See you later Finn, hope you have fun!"

"I can always listen to Rachel sing 'Run Joey Run if I get bored'", Finn responded with a grin.

The time was half past six, Finn was situated on the couch with a bag of cheez doodles and Transformers 3 playing. Even though the film was action filled and exciting, Finn's thoughts kept wandering to the balloons lying on the table in the hallway. He really wanted to blow up all those balloons and decorate, and now he knew exactly what he would do. He snatched the home phone of the side table.

"Hi Finn"

"Hey, could you come over and help me with something?"

"Umm, I'm a bit busy, what's it about?"

"The surprise party for Blaine."

"I'm on my way."

Fifteen minutes later the doorbell rang and Finn went over to open the door to Rachel, and Santana.

"Rachel! What's Santana doing here!?"

"Nice to see you too, Finn", Santana said and proceeded to enter the apartment.

"What you bring Santana for?" Finn whispered to Rachel.

"She was over watching the re-run of hoarders and I couldn't just leave her there."

"Just don't say anything about Kurt's you-know-what." Finn took Rachel's coat and hung it in the wardrobe. They proceeded to enter the living room, finding Santana snacking on the cheez doodles and flipping the channels.

"Hey, those are mine!"

"I don't see any note saying 'Finn's property' and Rachel dragged me here and I want my hoarders."

"Come on Santana, we need to work", Rachel said, snatched the remote from Santana's hands to turn of the television.

"Work? On what?"

"Blaine came home today from his tour, and we planned a surprise party for when he was supposed to come home from his tour tomorrow."

"So? What's there to work on?"

"Kurt wanted to hold a surprise party for him, and since he came home early he wasn't able to."

"What you're suggesting is that we hold the party now?"

"Kinda, they're out for the evening and won't be home until later. We don't have to do a lot, just decorate some and blow some balloons."

"Okay, I'm in as long as I can get a drink."

"No alcohol!" Rachel replied quickly.

"Why?"

"Because Kurt's preg..", Finn quickly covered Rachel's mouth with his hands. "What Rachel meant to say is that Kurt's on a new diet and exercise regime that means no alcohol."

"Whatever, let's get to work then", Santana said and kept the bag of cheez doodles in her arms.

"That cheese was so delicious I could eat it for the rest of my life!", Kurt said as he held onto Blaine's hand in the elevator.

"I am astounded, Kurt Hummel, admitting he could eat cheese for the rest of his life", Blaine snickered.

"Oh shut up, should I mention the desert that you consumed with noise that could be heard throughout the restaurant?"

"Hey, that chocolate soufflé was to die for", Blaine replied as the elevator reached their destination. They exited the elevator and strolled down the corridor to their door. Upon entering their apartment they found it completely dark, no lights on.

"Hello, Finn?", Kurt called out through the apartment.

"It's only half past nine, could he have gone to bed already? Man, he must have been tired."

"So, now that we know, he's probably asleep, I know something we could do", Kurt said seductively as he backed Blaine up against the wall.

"Oh, and what is that? And before we continue, are you sure we can do it? You know you being pregnant and all?"

"Yeah, I checked with the doctor, she said it was fine. But when I'm in my last month we should be careful with vigorous sexual acts." Kurt said as he dragged Blaine across the hall by his lapels of his suit.

"YOU'RE PREGNANT!?"

Suddenly all the lights in the living room lit up, revealing Santana, Rachel and Finn. The living room was decorated with balloons and a banner saying 'WELCOME HOME BLAINE!', and of course, the very shocked Latina.
