"Blaine, I feel awful," Kurt said as he cursed the feeling of nausea that washed over him before he stuck his head back in the toilet and vomited some more.

"Here drink this," Blaine said bringing him a small bottle of ginger ale, "it should help."

"Do you think I should take a test," Kurt said as he stood up and took the ginger ale from Blaine.

"You got your shot before we left for Florida though," Blaine's voice sounded really concerned at this point.

"Yeah, but what if it didn't work?"

"Well it doesn't hurt to see," Blaine smiled as he wrapped him in a hug.

Kurt looked down at the blinking hourglass icon on the home pregnancy test. He stuck the stick in his robe pocket and softly began pacing around the rug on their bedroom floor. He was so nervous. Blaine was still softly snoring in their bed, and he kept checking his watch. He had always known that he had a genetic mutation that could cause him to become pregnant, but as soon as he and Blaine had decided to start having sex he had been going and getting monthly birth control shots.

"Hey, why are you walking in circles," Blaine said as he rolled over sleepily and looked at Kurt.

"Waiting on the pregnancy test. It's been long enough we should look," Kurt sighed as he sat down on the edge of the bed next to Blaine and pulled it out of his robe pocket.

"Kurt...," Blaine whispered as they both saw the results.

"The shot didn't work," Kurt said shocked when he noticed the bold capital letters that said PREGNANT, "Blaine, we just graduated and got engaged. We don't have jobs and now it's going to be millions of times harder for me to do auditions. It's weird enough that I'm a guy even though the carrier gene has been public knowledge. I can't believe the shot failed."

"Kurt, look at me," Blaine said softly as he stared at his fiance's whose head was in his hands, "it's going to be fine. So it's a little earlier than our original plan but it will be okay. I love you, and I definitely am going to love this baby. We will work something out. I want us to be able to fulfill our dreams, and even though this is going to make it more difficult we have an amazing support system and we are not going to be alone."

"I know but I'm still shocked," Kurt smiled and walked off to make an appointment.

SHOOSH SHOOSH SHOOSH SHOOSH

Kurt's eyes filled with tears as the sound of the baby's heartbeat filled the air. This was all becoming so real so fast. Blaine leaned over and kissed his forehead before whispering, "This is amazing."

"Everything seems to be in order. The baby is measuring at about 7 weeks, and the heartbeat is really strong" Dr. Benatur said as she removed the wand and handed Kurt some tissue to wipe the blue goo off his belly. She was a petite blonde with blue eyes similar to Kurt's. When Kurt had decided to move to New York he had picked her practice since it specialized in the mutation, "Do you have any questions for me?"

"Is natural childbirth an option?" Kurt asked, "most men I have heard about that are carriers end up having c-sections."

"It is and actually if your body does everything it is supposed to do delivering naturally is the best for the baby. All the research we have done into the carrier gene shows a natural change within the body during the baby's development. You may feel a lot of pressure in your pelvic region during the second trimester, as the uterine birth canal develops and begins to fuse near the anal opening, but according to most men it isn't a very painful process just uncomfortable. The main reason for most male pregnancy c-sections is complications due to the baby beings stuck behind the pelvic bone."

"So the baby is going to come out of my butt," Kurt asked shocked,confused, and slightly disgusted.

"No it will actually be almost identical to female birth. The canal just doesn't open until birth. So as long as you are really careful you can still maintain intimacy as well. There are a whole bunch of pamphlets and websites on the whole process you can pick up from the information wall on your way downstairs, and Kurt," the young doctor placed a hand on his shoulder, "you are going to be fine. I have helped a lot of men have babies."

"Thanks," he said as he took Blaine's hand and left the office to go call family.

Kurt sat silently on the couch. Blaine had just left to go pickup takeout and Kurt was looking at the ultrasound pictures silently when he was drawn out of his thoughts by the sound of his cell phone buzzing loudly.

"Hello."

"Kurt, hey whats going on," Burt asked on the other end of the phone, "any wedding plans yet?'

"Hey, we have looked at a few venues, but we just got a little surprise a few days ago which is definitely going to change some things."

"Are you and Blaine okay?"

"Yah we are fine just still a little shocked. Dad, I'm pregnant."

"I'm going to be a grandpa," Burt sounded really excited, "but you just graduated and just got engaged. I thought you were still taking the shots.”

Kurt heard the door click and saw Blaine walk in. He motioned to the phone and kept talking, "He's fine. I've been feeling kinda run down the last few weeks, and then I started having this all over nauseous feeling. I took a home test a couple of days ago and then went to the doctor this morning to confirm. No one really had an explanation as to why the shot didn't work except maybe the antibiotic I took two weeks before I got the shot wasn't completely out of my system. I told the nurse I had been on antibiotics when I went in to get the shot before we left for Florida, but she said it had been a long enough gap and for us to not worry. Now I am just really anxious about how we are going to afford anything."

"Kurt, calm down," Burt said hearing the panic that was beginning to grow in his son's throat,
"We are going to work this out. I know you may not want to move back home, but depending on the situation you may not have a choice. You don't need to stress out it's not healthy for you or the baby. I love you Ill talk to you in a few days. May I talk to Blaine?"

"Love you too Dad. Dad wants to talk to you," Kurt said as he passed the phone to his fiancee.

"Burt, hi. Thanks. He is okay. I was definitely shocked, but I am so excited. I have an audition in the morning for a commercial, and I'm going to start looking into some teaching positions as well. He is mainly concerned about finding work and then having to leave to have the baby, but we will cross that bridge later. It might be a tough few months until I at least find something full time but we can make it work."

"Sounds like you both are getting it all figured out. Blaine, give him a hug for me. Please let me know if there is anything that you guys need, and tell him to stay calm."

"Thanks Burt, I will. Love you too. Talk to you soon. Bye," Blaine sighed as he clicked the phone shut and wrapped his arms around Kurt, "You know your dad is right. We are going to be okay, and if in a few months things are still rough we can go back to Ohio. Nothing says we can't come back to New York again, but now our child's future is our main concern."

"I know Blaine. I'm just scared," Kurt said leaning into his embrace.

"So am I, but I do love you and this little baby inside you. It's going to be rough at first but we will make it work."
