The next week Kurt tried to distance himself from Blaine as much as he could so that he could avoid having his heart broken. He was playing cars with Damian one day when he received a shock.

“Are you gonna leave?” Damian asked quietly.

Kurt stopped moving the car in his hand. “What do you mean, buddy?”

Damian shrugged and kept playing with his truck. “You and Daddy don't talk anymore. I think it makes him sad. When Mommy left, Daddy was really sad. I don't like Daddy sad.”

“I don't like your daddy to be sad either.”

Damian looked up at him. “You make Daddy happy.”

Kurt smiled. “Yeah?”

Damian nodded and grabbed another car. “He was happy when Charlie was here.”

“Who's Charlie?” Kurt asked curiously.

“Daddy's boyfriend.” Kurt's eyes went wide, but Damian didn't notice. “But he left and Daddy was sad again.”

Kurt said, “Your daddy seems pretty happy now. And you're happy.” Damian smiled and nodded. “And I'll be here for as long as you and your daddy need me.”

Damian climbed into Kurt's lap and put his arms around Kurt's neck, hugging him tight. “I love you, Kurt.”

Kurt sucked in a shocked breath before hugging Damian tightly to him and whispering, “I love you too, buddy.”

That day happened to be a day when Blaine came home early. He insisted Kurt stay as he always had, but Kurt told him he had to go. Kurt needed space. He needed time to think about what Damian had said. He felt like he couldn't breathe.

As he was leaving, Damian looked up and tugged on Kurt's pant leg. “Kurt?” He reached his arms up, wanting Kurt to hold him.

Kurt leaned down and picked him up. “What's up, Damian?”

Damian looked at Blaine then back at Kurt and cocked his head thoughtfully. “When are you and my daddy gonna get married?”

Blaine laughed uncomfortably and ran a hand nervously through his hair. “Um, Damian. Kurt and I aren't together, bud.”

With a frown, Damian said, “But Daddy, I want Kurt to be my mommy.”

Kurt could feel the heat in his cheeks. “Damian, honey, I can't be your mommy.” He shot a look at Blaine. “Mommies are girls and I'm a boy. And...”

Before he could continue, Damian cocked his head and asked, “So can you have two daddies?”

“Sure. People can have two daddies. But you don't just get a new mommy or daddy because you want one.”

“But Daddy,” Damian exclaimed, “You and Kurt like each other, right?”

Blaine avoided Kurt's eyes. “Of course we do. We've become friends since Kurt started watching you. But mommies and daddies are people who are more than just friends, Damian.”

“But Kurt loves me and I love Kurt and I want him to be part of our family.”

“He is part of our family. Like Uncle Cooper.”

Damian frowned. “Uncle Coop is your brother. Kurt's not.”

“Okay, then he's family like Nick and Julie.” That explanation didn't make Damian happy, but it kept him from asking any other questions. Blaine took Damian from Kurt's arms. “You don't look so good, Kurt. Maybe you should take tomorrow off. Have a long weekend.” For once, Kurt didn't argue.

He took the long weekend to sort through all of his thoughts. He came to the conclusion that it didn't matter if he was in love with Blaine and Blaine was bisexual. There was still no chance for them and he would have to just get over it.

Kurt went on doing everything the same as he had been and tried not to let his feelings affect his job. He found it difficult, but he managed. He and Damian still got along really well and he and Blaine still had friendly chats after Damian was in bed.
