Kurt was practically bouncing round the house with excitement. “Daddy, why is Daddy Kurt so happy?” Lizzie asked, slightly amused.
“Because today, we are going to be seeing some of our old friends from high school, they are some of mine and your daddy’s best friends so you have to be nice” Blaine answered tapping her nose cheekily.
“Why aren’t you …doing that then?” she said watching Kurt from the living room as he started dancing round the kitchen. “Because I show excitement in a less reserved manner than your father” Blaine said chuckling. As much as he loved the New Directions, Wes, David, Nick and Jeff weren’t going to be there and he missed them just as much.
It was the day of Christopher Hudson’s christening, named after Finn’s grandfather. So of course, Rachel was desperate to show off her son to the rest of New Directions …plus actually see them. Kurt was over the moon, seeing as a lot of members lived all over the country now, it had been a while since he had seen any of them …and none of them had met Elizabeth. Sure, he spoken to them all on the phone but he couldn’t wait to see his friends in person.
“Blaine, come dance with me” Kurt called, gleefully.
Blaine rolled his eyes but he stood up and took the hand Kurt was holding out. They jived round the kitchen with no real purpose other than fun. Kurt’s smile hadn’t disappeared from his face all morning and Blaine couldn’t help but smile back – there was nothing he liked better than seeing Kurt happy.
Kurt, Blaine and Lizzie walked into the room where the party of people were waiting before the christening. Kurt suddenly heard a shout from the other side of the room. “HUMMEL!” before Kurt could respond, a pair of strong muscly arms were wrapped firmly around him – Noah Puckerman.
“Puck!” Kurt hugged the taller man back tightly. It was strange how much he had missed Puck – he may be an idiot but he meant well. “How are you man?” Puck pulled back from Kurt in order to give the exact same bone-crushing hug to Blaine. “We’re great, how are you Puck? Last we heard from you, you had a job playing in clubs”
“You heard right, you’re looking at the best DJ in all of Ohio” he said, pulling a face slightly. He suddenly noticed the little girl hiding behind Blaine’s leg. “And who is this?” he bent down to talk directly to Lizzie. “Hey sweetie”
Elizabeth had gone shy all of a sudden. She offered Puck a small smile but didn’t want to say anything. “This is Elizabeth or Lizzie, as she prefers to be called” Kurt answered for her. “Give her an hour or two, she won’t be able to shut up” They chatted to Puck for a little while longer and learned that he had currently been in a relationship with one of the dancers from the club for about two years – a record for him.
Kurt suddenly heard an excited squeal from behind him. He turned around to see Mercedes Jones, looking as stunning as ever, with Sam Evans on her arm. She immediately rushed forward to hug Kurt and he returned the hug just as eagerly. “Kurt! I’ve missed you so much!” she practically shouted.
“Aw, sweetie, I’ve missed you too. Then again, I’m surprised you’ve found time to miss me, you famous little singer you” he said, tapping her nose playfully. Mercedes ‘record deal had picked up and she was quickly becoming one of America’s best loved singers. The girl turned to Blaine and hugged him just as tightly. When Blaine pulled away, he suddenly caught hold of her hand and lifted it up. “Is this what I think it is?!” he said excitedly, gesturing to the rather large ring on her finger.
“Maybe” she said, the smile on her face never faltering. She grabbed a hold of Sam’s hand once he had finished greeting Kurt and Blaine. “He proposed just a little over three months ago. It was beautiful” she said, kissing the blushing man on the cheek.
“You were on TV last week” Lizzie suddenly said.
“See, Lizzie, me and Daddy told you we knew the famous Mercedes Jones” Kurt said, poking his daughter in the ribs.
“So this is the daughter you always talk about huh?” Mercedes said, smiling down at the little girl. “Hey honey” Sam gave a warm smile and a wave to her.
“Hello” Elizabeth said, her charm showing a little more.
“Tina!” Blaine suddenly called out and rushed forward to hug the girl – during his senior year, him and Tina had become close, what with both of their boyfriends being away they had bonded. “Blaine, hello” she said happily. Blaine moved on to hug her husband Mike as she went to hug Kurt.
After a while, Quinn, Artie, Santana and Brittney had shown up and hugs had been shared. Everyone was busy cooing over the new Hudson baby but Elizabeth had begun to start to talk to the various members of the New Directions – surprisingly, she had taken a particular shine to Puck, she had been talking animatedly to him for a while now.
“Is everyone here?” Rachel’s voice came calling above the rabble from the others.
“One more minute” Kurt answered back, looking down at his phone quickly then smiling. Blaine frowned – everyone from Glee was here, Rachel’s Dads were here and so were Burt and Carole. Then he saw them.
Strolling into the room, casual as ever, were four fairly tall men all of them sporting huge grins. “BLAINE!” they shouted, before looking at one another and then running forward to tackle the smaller man to the ground. “You guys!” Blaine laughed, from where they had pushed him on the floor. They pulled him up again and they shared a large group embrace. They then ran to hug Kurt as well. Blaine suddenly noticed that a change between his friends – Nick and Jeff were holding hands. “You two finally got your act together then huh?” Blaine said, his eyebrows raising.
The men blushed a bit before shushing Blaine. “But how did you guys get an invite? Hey, you didn’t gate-crash did you?”
“Blaine Anderson-Hummel. Do you expect us to gate-crash?” David said in mock horror.
“Ask your husband” Wes said, with a smile.
“Kurt! You invited them!” Blaine said turning to him.
“Of course I did, it wouldn’t be a proper reunion without our weirdo Warbler buddies. And I knew how much you missed them” Kurt answered, looking rather smug.
“You are an angel. Come here” Blaine grabbed Kurt’s face in his hands and kissed him passionately, smiling slightly against Kurt’s lips. There were a few wolf-whistles from the crowd but Kurt just chuckled and pulled Blaine closer before drawing back reluctantly, he whispered in his ear “As much as I would like that to continue, we have a christening to go to”
