Two Daddies – Chapter II:

                As soon as Kurt turns the doorknob, Adrian comes running towards him:

                “Daddy K!”

                “Ady, come here! I’ve missed you so much, Sweet Prince. But why are you dressed as Buzz Lightyear?”  Kurt is casting an awry look towards Blaine who was just behind the little one.

                Blaine just casts a look that says “I’ll explain you later” while he kisses and hugs Kurt by the waist. Only then he sees Cooper waiting by the doorstep. Blaine smiles awkwardly and that was all Cooper was waiting to start being Cooper:

                “Blainey, little brother, long time no seeing!” Cooper hugs Blaine effusively and continues: “Kurt I have already seen, but this must be Andrew. - “Adrian”, Blaine corrects him, but he doesn’t even listen - How are you doing champion?”

                Adrian hides his face in Kurt’s chest. Kurt kindly starts tickling his son’s foot: “Come on Ady, say hi to your uncle Cooper. He came here to meet you…”

                A feeble “Hi” is all Adrian manages to say before hiding his face again. Blaine interferes: “Let’s go Ade, go finish the drawing you were making for Daddy K while we have dinner.”

                Blaine sits with his son in the little table and Cooper rolls his eyes to the scene. Luckily only Kurt sees that. He now perceives that the reconciliation between Blaine and Cooper would be  way more difficult than he thought. But he’s not giving up:

                “What a lovely table you’ve set, Blee. Came and sit with us, we can see Ady while he draws from here.”

                Blaine knows that Kurt wants him to be nice to Cooper; he’ll try it tonight, but only because of his husband:

                “So, Cooper, what brings you to New York? Are you here to resurrect Broadway?”

                “That’s a lost cause. I’m here auditioning for a TV series; big stuff…”

                Blaine interrupts him with a sarcastic smile:

                “What happened to the FAN-TAS-TIC soap opera you were in?”

                Cooper keeps his wide smile on his face, apparently unaware of Blaine’s irony. However, Kurt knows his husband better:

                “So Blee, what do we have for dinner? Have you cooked? There’s a wonderful smell coming from the kitchen…” He’s sending a warning look towards Blaine, who understands immediately:

                “I’ll go get the ratatouille.”

                When he’s back Kurt is trying to engage everyone in a single conversation:

                “Let me tell you about my job interview.”

                Blaine is now a little embarrassed remembering he hasn’t asked Kurt about it:

                “Oh yeah, how could that escape my mind? Did they loved you or they adored you?”

                “I think they liked me. I’m so excited! It’ll be wonderful going back to work in this exact job. They said they would call this week.”

                Cooper, who had been quiet observing Adrian, talks again:

                “What is this job Kurt?”

                “Costume designer for the new production of Moulin Rouge on Broadway. It’s starting next year and it’s going to be a huge production. It’s a highly prestigious job; a lot of people are applying for it.”

                “And are you qualified for it?” Asks Cooper unaware he’s being rude.

                “I’m sure he got it.” Says Blaine kissing Kurt and beginning to be pretty annoyed by his brother.

                In this moment, Adrian is pulling Cooper’s jacket with a piece of paper in his hand:

                “For you, Uncle Cooper.”

                “Thank you, Champion. I loved this… drawing? Is it a drawing?”

                Blaine is getting angrier and angrier with his brother. Kurt sees the danger in the situation:

                “Come on, Ady. It’s way past your bedtime. Say goodbye to Daddy B and Uncle Cooper and I’ll put you to sleep. I haven’t seen you all day and I want to know what happened to you in kindergarten today.”

                After the minutes that took Kurt to brush Adrian’s teeth, tell him a bedtime story and making sure the little one is asleep; Kurt is in the hallway walking back to the dining room. He hears the screaming voices of Blaine and Cooper. The only thing he’s close enough to distinguish is Blaine saying:

                “Of course he’s shy! He has been abandoned and lived four years in an orphanage. Do you think it would be better for him if he stood there?”

                Cooper is interrupted by the door opening and Kurt entering the room. He and Blaine were both standing, with the table between then but looking directly into each other’s eyes. The tension was perfectly tangible in the air. Cooper looks at Kurt’s surprised face and then back at Blaine’s raged one. He simply sighs, turns his back at them and goes out slamming the front door.
