"So when are you going to, um, inform people about um it?" Santana asked casually about two weeks after the initial shocker as she sat with Adam and Rachel on the sofa, Kurt laying on his back on the floor his hands covering his face in stress.
"I have no fucking clue." Kurt said worriedly.
"Woah, watch the language, it has ears." Adam said and Rachel and Santana laughed.
"Can we not call the baby 'it' please?" Kurt asked deflecting the original question.
"Well are you keeping it? I mean the baby, are you keeping the baby?" Rachel asked and Kurt's hands flew protectively to his still flat stomach.
"Of course I'm keeping the little guy or girl. It's my fault and I'm going to be responsible for it. I'll just quit NYADA, I won't be able to afford tuition and baby stuff anyway. Fuck dreams, they weren't gonna come true to begin with. Besides it's not like I'll be able to dance or anything, I can barely stand without empting the contents of my stomach into the nearest trash can. I'll see if I can get a real job at Vogue.com instead of my little internship. Save up money, get another job at least till the baby comes so I can have a decent starting fund. And just hope I don't fuck up too badly." Kurt explained his rudimentary plans.
"Aunt Santana will always have your back, Kurt. I won't mind pitching in or watching the little baby if you have to work or something." Santana said uncharacteristically sweet.
"I'll be here for you too Kurt." Adam smiled.
"Me too, sweetheart." Rachel added.
"So back to my question, when are you going to tell people? Especially oh I don't know, the father." Santana added and Kurt frowned.
"I guess I'll call my dad and Carole tonight, I'm pretty sure Finn's crashing there so I can let him know too. As for Blaine, I don't know, I don't even know how to tell him. We're not even back together, and you never stay with someone because of a baby on the way, too many movies have taught me that lesson." Kurt said and Santana moved to the floor to lay with him.
"Okay darling, why don't we start with your parents and Finn first..." Santana suggested and Kurt did just that.
"KURT!!" Finn yelled excitedly into the phone as a greeting.
"Hey Finn," Kurt smiled. "How's it going back home? I miss you guys a lot."
"We miss you too Kurt, I miss you. You're my brother and you left me to figure out shit all by myself. What happened to Furt?" Finn asked and Kurt laughed.
"Well we are Kinn, haha, get it, kin like family, and kinn like Kurt plus Finn. You got it. I'm funny." Kurt said and Finn laughed loudly into the phone.
"God I even miss your bad jokes, you're such an awkward soul. But I love you bro. When are you coming back to visit?" Finn asked and Kurt tensed.
"I may be coming back home sooner than I first thought. I have some stuff I need to tell some people. That's kind of why I called. Is um, is mom or dad home?" Kurt asked and Finn sighed.
"Bro whatever it is you can tell me. We're cool remember. Kinn?" Finn spoke softly and Kurt laughed.
"Okay man, just don't freak out. I'm um, I'm pregnant." Kurt said softly and he could hear the phone drop.
"Finn are you there?" Kurt asked quietly.
"Holy fuck I'm going to be an uncle!!" Finn screamed and Kurt laughed, finding comfort in Finn freaking out over that aspect rather than the fact that his gay stepbrother was pregnant.
"I'm going to be an Uncle Kurt! And you're going to be a dad! And holy fuck I don't even know how that works, Cheesus I should have paid way more attention in health class, what the actual fuck. Uncle Finn, I like that. Oh my god I'm going to take the little tyke camping, or maybe I'll have tea parties with my beautiful niece. Oh my god! God I'm so fucking excited! You need to tell dad! No let me tell him!" Finn talked loudly into the phone.
"Okay Finn, I'm really glad you took that well." Kurt sighed, smiling brightly.
"Hey dad! Mom! Kurt's on the phone and he has huge news!" Finn yelled and he could imagine Finn sitting in the kitchen where the phone was, Burt and Carole in the living room watching 5 o'clock news or something like that and laughing at Finn's outburst.
"Hey kiddo what's up? How's New York?" Burt asked obviously on speaker phone.
"Fuck New York! Tell him Kurt tell him!" Finn cheered excitedly.
"Finn! Watch you're language do I need to scrub your god damn mouth out with soap?" Carole yelled at Finn and Kurt swears he could hear Finn pout.
"Hi sweetheart, why don't you tell us you're big news." Carole said sweetly and Kurt wondered if he should ask them how they're doing first, talk about the weather, be polite.
"It's really good hearing from you guys. I miss you all so much. I'm doing well and I hope you are too. It's just that a few weeks ago I went to the doctors, just to get my physical updated for NYADA, and well they found something, um alarming." Kurt started and Carole seemed worried.
"Oh no Kurt, are you okay? Do you need to come home? Should I make soup while you book a flight?" She asked and Kurt smiled at her motherly nature. No one could ever replace his mother, but Carole sure had made a special place in his heart.
"Oh, we're perfectly fine." Kurt smiled.
"We?" Carole asked.
"Kurt's having a baby and I'm going to be an uncle!" Finn announced and Kurt blushed.
"A baby?" Burt asked. "I'm going have a grandkid! Kurt that's so exciting! I'm so happy! How the fuck did this happen? I don't even care, I'm gonna have a grandkid." Burt cheered nearly as happily as Finn had done mere minutes earlier.
"Kurt I had no idea you were a carrier. I read about them at med school, but I've never met one. This is so exciting. I'm gonna be the best grandma ever, and you're little pumpkin is going to be spoiled rotten. Starting prenatally, get your ass on a train or a plane or walk I don't care but you'll be home for Friday night dinner!" Carole chippered on and Kurt had never seen his family so happy.
"Mom, its Thursday." Kurt laughed.
"Boy do you think I care? Get the cheapest last minute flights you can, book 'em and bring Santana and Rachel home too, we need the family to be together." Carole mussed excitedly and Kurt laughed at all the joy.
"I'll see you all tomorrow then." Kurt smiled. "I love you all."
"Love you too buddy." Burt replied a tear sliding down his cheek.
"See you tomorrow sweet pea, love you." Carole smiled.
"Love you bro!" Finn said ending the call.
"Well that didn't go too terribly." Santana smiled and placed her hands on Kurt's stomach as he hugged him from behind.
"Pack your bags ladies we're going home for the weekend." Kurt said as Santana kissed his tear stained cheek. He hadn't even realized he was crying, it was all just so much love and emotion and support.
"Are you sure you don't want to come?" Kurt asked Adam a final time before he officially booked the flights.
"Kurt, this should be about you. They don't know me, I can meet them next time. Besides it'd probably be a little uncomfortable watching you Blaine reunite. Have fun, call me when you land safely. And text me, god knows I'll be bored." Adam teased and kissed Kurt's forehead.
"Kurt just get the damn tickets, I'm hungry and we need to be back in time for me to finish packing and to get my beauty sleep. Oliver Twist may think the trip is for you but Carole's totally trying to help me get my girl back from trouty mouth." Santana said snatching the laptop from Kurt and finishing the booking process.
"You do realize trouty mouth lives with us right? Rachel and Finn brought him back from being a Kentucky stripper and now the bitch sleeps in my room." Kurt pouted.
"Someone's bitter. What is it porcelain, something's bothering you and it isn't just a room." Santana asked gesturing to the middle of her forehead.
"Fuck your Mexican Third Eye. Yes something bothers me. Blaine's fucking in love with stupid trouty mouth. He lives in my house, sleeps in my bed, and now my man has eyes for him. He's taking my life Santana and it's not fair. Drink my diet coke and jack off in my bathroom fine, but take my man, that's too far. I'm not too pregnant, I can still hit him. Take Brittany you have to deal with Santana, take Blaine you have to deal with me. And I'm pissed. I'm hormonal and pissed. Beyond pissed. Fucking livid." Kurt pouted and Santana laughed.
"Easy there tiger, we'll make sure he backs off both of our loves. By the end of the trip you'll have your man and I'll have my girl." Santana added and Adam chuckled.
"Shut up, doctor. Don't you have a TARDIS you should be in or daleks to battle?" Kurt teased and Adam smiled.
"If by TARDIS you mean dorm and by daleks you mean homework I guess so." Adam laughed. "I was gonna leave in another hour or so anyway, but before I go do you want me to order some Chinese food, I could go pick it up while you guys pack and then we can have dinner, say our goodbyes, and then I can write that essay I've been putting off." Adam asked.
"Sounds like a plan, doctor." Rachel smiled and Adam scurried off to find the pamphlet that had the Chinese restaurants number on it.
"It's gonna be weird going home." Kurt said throwing a few tee shirts and some of his less skinny jeans into his satchel. He hadn't yet gained a prominent bump but he definitely had a nice swell that did not enjoy being crammed into his excessively tight clothing.
"I know, it was awkward going back after everyone broke up, but it's going to be even more awkward since everyone hooked up at the wedding." Rachel said and Santana chuckled.
"Yeah but at least I won't be sharing a home with my ex-fiancé slash latest booty call for the weekend." Santana teased and Rachel threw the shirt she was folding at her.
"Yeah well you'll be sharing a house with your girl's new man." Rachel teased back and Kurt laughed at the interaction.
"Don't laugh porcelain, you'll be in the same room as your baby daddy's new love interest." Santana said smacking his ass as she walked past him to grab her hair brush.
"Ughh don't remind me. Hmm let's talk about sleeping arrangements." Kurt suggested.
"Okay well how many rooms are there?" Rachel asked.
"Well my parents have theirs, Finn has his, and I have mine. We can uproot Sam and put him on the sofa in the living room. Me and San can share my bed and we can put some blankets on the floor for you." Kurt explained and Santana nodded.
"Well I get why you get a bed, but why does Santana? Why can't I sleep with you and put her on the floor?" Rachel asked and Santana threw her bag at Rachel causing her to duck and scream.
"You kick and I don't feel like putting up with your shit, Rachel." Kurt said and Rachel pouted.
"Besides you'll find your way into Finn's bed before the night's out anyway." Santana teased and Rachel threw the sandal she was cramming into her carryon.
They all finished packing, placing their bags by the door so they wouldn't forget anything when the left the next morning. Why is the cheapest flight always at like 3 am?
Adam came back with their orders just as Rachel set her bag by the door. They ate happily singing along to the radio that played softly in the background.
They said their goodbyes and Adam left just before eight, allowing them enough time to shower and get some sleep before setting of on their flight early the next morning.
Rachel and Santana fell asleep easily, but Kurt tossed and turned all night playing with words in his mind on how to tell Blaine and letting the possible reactions haunt him the remainder of the night.
