As Blaine drove away Kurt cried as he walked towards Finn's car. Santana was in the driver's seat, the passenger seat reserved for him, forcing Finn, Rachel, and Sam to squeeze into the back.
"Hey baby, no tears." Santana said as he climbed into the car stretching the seatbelt over his bump, reminding him of the predicament he was about to be in when he got home.
"Hey Sam?" Kurt asked tentatively.
"Yeah what is it bro?" He asked calmly.
"You know how all day I've been telling Blaine I need to talk to him about something, something important, the reason we're back in town?" Kurt asked testing the waters.
"Yeah, did you ever get to talk to him? He was kind of being an ass to you all day." Sam laughed and Kurt sighed, bracing himself for his big reveal.
"No, I actually didn't get to tell him." Kurt frowned.
"That's too bad, I'm sure you can just call him later. Or I'll ask to come over to help me try on bathing suits; dude has a gross obsession with me." Sam laughed.
"Um it's uh not that simple anymore. I don't know that I can tell him, it's pretty life changing. But the thing is, I have to tell you. My parents already know and no doubt their going to want to talk about it when we get home, so you're going to find out one way or another. But I really need you to promise me that you want tell Blaine. I really love him and I can't hurt him. Until I have the opportunity to tell him you can't tell him. It's kind of a family secret. Do you understand?" Kurt asked calmly.
"Dude whatever it is, you have my word. I won't tell Blaine, I would never do anything to hurt your relationship with him. And family secret I'm just happy you include me as family, but what is it?" Sam asked confused.
"Well you see, there's this genetic mutation that occurs in some males and it gives them the ability to become pregnant and carry children." Kurt started explaining.
"The carrier gene, I know. I have a second cousin who got pregnant and he and his husband couldn't have been happier." Sam supplied. "What is this about? And why couldn't you tell Blaine this?" Sam asked.
"I'm pregnant Sam, Blaine's the father. I came back here to spend some time with my family and to let him know. But after today and him and Tina I'm not really in the position to start talking to him about what this means for us, because there is no us. I'm keeping the baby though, the child is my responsibility and don't get me wrong I will tell Blaine eventually, I just feel like it's my mistake and he shouldn't have to suffer. I know everything I'm giving up, and I can't ask him to do that for me. Not that he'd even want to." Kurt explained softly.
"Kurt, Rachel was right, you are a warrior. After all the shit life has dealt you and now this on top of it, you still haven't broken. And you're willing to put your life on hold to spare Blaine the difficulty of doing the same to his. I respect you. Don't worry, I won't tell Blaine. We're cool. I'm sorry for all the shit Blaine said to you today, if he only knew the truth he'd realize what a fucking cunt he was being. But you're better than him, and if you ever need anything I'm here for you." Sam said and Kurt cried softly.
"Are you okay? Did I say something wrong?" Sam asked.
"You're okay Sam. God in New York I was so jealous of you." Kurt laughed.
"Jealous of me? I was jealous of you. You're so brave and just amazing. You're living your dreams Kurt. You got out and you're unstoppable. Kicking ass and taking names. You're my super hero." Sam said and Kurt laughed.
"God I feel like such a jerk. I was so mad at you because Blaine has a harmless crush on you." Kurt said sadly.
"Dude, he's the father of your child and the love of your life, trust me you're allowed to be mad at me. Just know that I would never do that to you dude." Sam said and Kurt smiled.
"Are we cool?" Kurt asked and Sam agreed.
"I guess with all the explanations going around I should talk to Santana." Sam said softly and Santana looked back at him from her rearview mirror.
"Santana, I'm sorry about Brittany. I took advantage of the situation. I had a crush on her, she was vulnerable after the break up and I used that as my opportunity to win her over. She doesn't love me though, and it's obvious. She loves you. You should go to her this weekend, you have my permission. And I'll be gentle when I end things with her, I don't deserve someone as magical as her. I just felt lost when Mercedes left. I haven't had a good relationship since I started at McKinley. Quinn left me for Finn. You left me for Karofsky but really Brittany. Mercedes meant a lot to me but she had Shane and I was in Kentucky. I guess I thought I could make up for all those fails with Brittany, I thought because she was so clueless I could shape the relationship to how I wanted it. But I was wrong. You're the only one who is good for her. And I'm just, I'm sorry." Sam said and Santana stopped the car.
"She was never mine for you to take, I set her free and she chose you. I shouldn't have been such a bitch to you, and me singing today was really out of line. I'm sorry Sam. You're a nice person, I respect you." Santana said turning around in her seat to give him a hug before pulling off to continue her drive to the Hudmel house.
"Oh my god the family's home!" Carole smiled excitedly rushing outside to hug and kiss everyone.
"Hey mom, how are you?" Kurt asked and she gave him a dismissive wave.
"Forget that, how's my little grandbaby?" She asked talking to his belly rather than his face earning a chuckle from the group.
"Hey baby, I'm gonna be your favorite person in the world and you're gonna love your grandma and grandpa but mostly your grandma because I'm the best and I'll give you extra sweets. And I bet you are going to be adorable, and talented, and beautiful, and my perfect little angel." She said placing her hands on Kurt's abdomen and talking excitedly to the fetus.
"Quit hogging the baby!" Burt exclaimed stepping over and hugging his son, "hey there little guy or girl or whatever sexuality or gender you prefer, I'm gonna accept you know matter what because you're my grandbaby and I love you, and don't listen to grandma, she's old and I'm waaay cooler." Burt talked to the baby both he and Carole laughing excitedly, Kurt rolling his eyes as the rest of the group carried their bags into the house.
"So any baby names?" Carole asked as they were all seated around the living room, Santana lounging on the sofa with Kurt, her palms pressed to his pregnant belly.
"If it's a boy my vote goes to Blaine Jr." Santana said with a wink.
"She wants to call you're grandson bj." Kurt said rolling his eyes.
"Santana!" Burt laughed loudly. "Kurt is not naming that baby and acronym for blow job, that's right I know what it means, I'm hip." He said proudly.
"More like you're gonna break a hip, grandpa." Carole teased her husband as they snuggled together on the couch.
"Laugh it up now Kurt, this baby is going to make you old." Burt teased and Kurt chuckled as Santana rubbed his stomach.
"I was thinking a name from one of the old movies I grew up watching." Kurt said and Carole nodded.
"Like one of those Mollie Ringwald movies? What was the guy from Pretty in Pink, not John Criers character." Carole asked and Kurt couldn't turn down the chance to do an impression.
"Blaine?? His names Blaine? Oh god that's a major appliance not a name!" Kurt said and the group laughed.
"Okay so no Pretty in Pink unless we want bj to be made fun of for being a major appliance." Carole laughed.
"What about Jake Ryan, he's the hottie in Sixteen Candles." Rachel suggested.
"That's also the name Disney gave to Hannah Montana's boyfriend." Kurt said shutting it down.
"Johnny Castle, stud from Dirty Dancing." Santana smiled. "Or we could call her Baby, or Frances." She added for a girl's name.
"Johnny Castle Hummel sounds bad and Baby is not a suitable name." Sam sighed.
"Any of the characters from The Breakfast Club?" Sam asked.
"Claire is a fat girl's name." Santana quoted.
"Noah or Allie from the Notebook?" Burt suggested.
"I told Blaine that we'd spend our lives together living out the notebook, and I guess part of that's true. I'm gonna grow old and he's going to forget me." Kurt frowned.
"Kenickie from Grease!" Sam suggested.
"I like the name Tom." Finn chuckled.
"If you say Tom Marvolo Riddle you will be punched." Kurt responded and Finn frowned. "You wanted to name my son after Voldemort???" He laughed.
"Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Snape, Albus, Luna, Neville, Dobby???" Finn supplied and Kurt just laughed.
"Jack Dawson, Rose?" Sam added.
"Ooooh let's do Disney!" Rachel suggested.
"Ariel, Cinderella, Beauty, Sleeping Beauty, Bell, Mulan, Pocahontas, Tiana, Jasmine." Carole listed.
"Jasmine is really pretty, I like that." Kurt smiled. "Keep listing.
"Well Aladdin, Peter Pan, Robin Hood, Eric." She added.
"Oh my god, Eric!" Santana said happily. "If the baby looks like Blaine you tell him his dad is Prince Eric, if he looks like you he can still be the scrawny kid from That 70's Show!" Santana explained excitedly.
"Is it wrong that I like that?" Kurt laughed.
"Dude, we're going with Eric. Eric and Jasmine." Finn smiled.
"Well at least the name is one thing I'll have already figured out in all this mess." Kurt said rubbing his belly.
