On the morning of Kurt’s 23rd birthday, he woke up to a smooth tenor voice singing “Happy Birthday” quietly in his ear, with the smell of coffee drifting in from somewhere in the apartment.

“Happy birthday darling,” Blaine said quietly as Kurt blinked open his eyes to be greeted with the sight of his boyfriend sitting on the bed next to him, a mug of coffee in his hands and a smile on his face, “I have some coffee for you, and then you should get dressed and ready because I’m taking you out for breakfast today and then we have plans!” he said, grinning, and Kurt smiled, leaning up to kiss him before taking the mug from his hands and taking a sip. An hour and a half later the couple was sitting down for breakfast at one of their favorite cafes, and Blaine wasn’t revealing what their plans for the day were.

“It’s a surprise,” he insisted as they left the café, “But I will give you one of your gifts when we get to the park,” he said, and Kurt smiled, taking Blaine’s hand as they walked to the park that they had frequented throughout the years, and Blaine led him to their favorite spot.

“So what are we doing here?” Kurt asked, but Blaine just smiled and took a deep breath before motioning for Kurt to sit down on the bench, and as he did, Blaine got down on one knee and, as Kurt’s heart felt like it may beat out of his chest, began to speak, talking Kurt’s hands in his.

“Kurt Hummel, I’ve told you this once and I’ll tell you again, but you are the love of my life. And I want to spend every minute of it with you. I want to have children with you, I want to buy an actual house with you, I want to be there when you get featured in Vogue, I want, I just want everything with you,” at this point Kurt was almost positive that he knew what was going on, and his thoughts were only confirmed when Blaine let go of one of his hands and pulled a small box out of his pocket and opened it to reveal a simple white gold ring, “Will you give me the honor of becoming your husband?”
