When Kurt finally made it to the hospital and managed to find Burt's room, he was met with Blaine at the door. "Thank you for staying with him. How is he?"

"He's stable, he hasn't regained consciousness yet, but he's breathing on his own." Blaine said as he looked Kurt over, he looked tired and scared. He just wanted to wrap Kurt up in him arms, hold him, and promise everything was going to be okay.

"Do the doctors know what happened? He told me it wasn't bad, that he was fine."

"I honestly don't know, I do know that the doctor talked to Carole though, so you might ask her." Blaine knew he would have to tell Kurt the truth about Burt's cancer before he talked to Carole.

"I'll do that later, I just- I need to see him." Kurt looked at the closed door and let out a shaky breath.

"Do you want me to wait out here or-"

"No. I want you to be there, I can't do this alone Blaine, I just can't."

"Okay, whatever you need." Blaine chanced reaching out to place his hand on the small of Kurt's back, letting out a sigh of relief when Kurt didn't push him away, but instead stepped closer to him.

Kurt turned the door knob, pausing only a second before he entered the room with Blaine. He knew he needed to be focused on his father but he couldn't stop thinking about Blaine. Blaine who was always there for him, who went out of his way to help him. Blaine who he still, deep down, loved with every fiber of his being.

"Are you okay?" Blaine asked when Kurt just stood there staring at Burt's sleeping form.

"Yeah, sorry I just- he looks so peaceful." Kurt whispered, pushing his thoughts about Blaine to the back of his mind.

"He's not hurting when he's sleeping, at least that's what Carole said."

Kurt moved away from Blaine to sit in the chair beside Burt's bed. "It's worse than he let on isn't it?"

"I'm not sure if I should be the one to-"

"He told you everything didn't he? Before he brought you to New York for Christmas? That's why he wanted you there."

"I-I-"

"It's okay Blaine, I understand why you didn't tell me, I'm not angry." Kurt turned to Blaine who was still standing in the middle of the floor and motioned for him to come stand beside him.

Blaine gripped Kurt's shoulder like he was afraid he'd drown if he let go. "He told me that it was bad, that the doctors didn't know if it could be reversed. He told me because he wanted someone to know, someone to be there for you when something like this happened." He gestured to where Burt was sleeping.

"He knew that you would be the only person I would be comfortable with, even after everything that we've been through." Kurt leaned back in the chair, back into Blaine who wrapped his arms around Kurt's neck and leaned down to rest his head beside Kurt's.

"Your dad is a very observant man, sometimes I think he knows more about you than you do to be completely honest."

"He does. I'm stubborn so even if I do want something, I'll deny it just because I don't want to admit it. Dad just knows, he can see through all that."

"He's going to be okay Kurt. I don't know how it when, but he's going to be okay." Blaine whispered, pressing a quick kiss to Kurt's temple before letting go of him completely.

"Blaine, I need to tell you something because I don't want to lie about it." Kurt was terrified to tell Blaine about Adam, but he needed to, he couldn't keep this from Blaine.

"Okay, what is it?"

"I'm sort of seeing someone in New York." Kurt said, holding his breath, waiting for Blaine to say something.

"Oh. I uh- what's his name?" Blaine felt his heart skip a beat, but not in a good way. Kurt had moved on, he had given up on them.

"Adam. He's a senior at NYADA. We're not dating but we're more than friends, I guess, it's kind of confusing really." Kurt pretended like he didn't see the way Blaine visibly slumped and tried to hide the disappointment.

"That's great Kurt, really, I'm glad you have someone."

"Blaine, I-"

"You really don't have to explain anything to me Kurt, we're not together, I cheated, you're allowed to see other guys."

"You know I still care about you right? I will always care about you." Kurt needed Blaine to know that no matter what happened, he would always care about him.

"Yes, of course I do."

"I never want you to forget that, you will always mean something to me, more than anyone else."

Blaine was just about to speak when the doctor came in.

"You must be Kurt, I'm Doctor Joseph thank you for coming in."

"How is he?" Kurt asked.

He's as good as he could be considering. We're giving him all the medicine we can along with as much treatment as we can, but the cancer is in the advanced stage so we will just have to wait and see if any of the medicine we give him will do any good."

"When do you think he'll wake up?" Blaine spoke up, seeing Kurt struggling to keep his composure.

"He could wake up at anytime, he's breathing on his own so that's a good sign. We're doing everything we can to help him."

"Thank you." Kurt stood up to shake the doctor's hand, waiting for him to leave the room before letting out a choked off sob.

Blaine was there, pulling Kurt into his arms and trying to sooth him.

"I can't lose my dad. I can't-"

"It's going to be okay, everything is going to be fine." Blaine kept whispering in Kurt's ear, holding back his own tears.

It could have been minutes or even hours before Kurt was calmed down enough to lift his head from Blaine's shoulder and speak. "Please don't leave, I need you."

Blaine felt his throat close up and his heart clench up. "I won't, I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere."

Kurt gave him a grateful look, laying his head back on Blaine's shoulder, letting Blaine's voice and soft hand rubbing up and down his back, lull him to sleep. He felt safe and at home in Blaine's arms, no amount of time apart could ever change that.
