Mrs Anderson stared in shock at her youngest son. They were just having a family dinner, with Copper having come for a visit while on a break from college, and Blaine lifted his head and stared right in his fathers eyes.
"I'm gay" he said, loud and clear. He sounded so sure of himself.
The whole room seemed to be in a freeze frame until...
"Blaine, can you please go to your room." Blaine nodded, tears in his eyes as he bolted from the table and in his room upstairs.
"Dad..." began Copper.
"It is just a phase" said Mr Anderson.
"No it's not" sang out a voice. Shocked, Mrs Anderson looked to the door to see a tall girl standing there, fiddling with a necklace which hung around her neck. She tucked the necklace into her dress - which looked like a prom dress.
"Who are you, and how did you get into my house?" asked Mr Anderson.
"My name is Loretta, and honestly I have no idea" said Loretta as she made herself at home in Blaine's chair.
"What do you mean by you have no idea?" asked Copper.
"I honestly mean I have no idea, I just got this necklace which can transport me to different realms and help someone there. Apparently I am needed to help Blaine Anderson. Now, can you take my hand and I will take you to where you can see what this phase gives your son."
A little startled at being told what to do by a girl - a teenager none the less - the Anderson's took her hand and they could feel themselves disappear.
They found themselves standing in a kitchen. The kitchen was large with bunkers filling up the sides, a large gap which leads into what appeared to be the living room and a island in the middle, with three chairs on one side.
"Daddy can't catch me" cheered a girls voice as said girl ran into the kitchen. She looked to be around five years of age and she wore a sun dress with no shoes or socks on her feet. Then an older Blaine ran into the room. He had let his curls loose and they were hanging around his neck and he wore a shirt and trousers.
"Daddy can and Daddy will"laughed Blaine as he walked through his older brother to get his daughter (who looked just like him) and the little girl ran out the room. Blaine ran after her and the group followed them into the living room.
They arrived to see that Blaine had caught the girl and was now lifting her up in the air, while standing on the couch.
"Daddy caught you" he sang. The girl laughed as another voice joined them.
"Blaine Devon Anderson, if you do not put our daughter down this minute I will not feed you" said the voice and the group turned to face the newcomer. It was a man wearing tight clothes. In his hand, he carried a sketch book.
"Aw, but papa" whined the girl.
"No, but papa me Elizabeth Hummel Anderson. You just ate and you will throw up over you father and he will stink and no one will want to go near him" said the man.
"Yeah, Daddy, Papa's right. You need to put me down now" said Elizabeth and with a pout, Blaine lowered the girl. She twirled around twice before she sat down on the couch, right at Blaine's feet.
"Play some video games. You know Nick and Jeff are coming round next week for that tournament. Teach Elizabeth the basics" and both of them cheered, grabbed games controllers and activated the game. The man began to head over to the desk but Blaine stopped before he could. Blaine stood up from the couch, placing the controller beside his daughter, and made his way over to the man. He wrapped the man up in hug.
"I love you Kurt" he said and Kurt smiled and kissed him.
"I love you too."
"Uh, oh. I should tell you I haven't got control yet ... "Whatever else Loretta was about to say was cut off as she disappeared in a flash and the group found themselves back in their dinning room.
They all stared at each other. Copper stood from the table and made his way upstairs. Their parents followed and arrived at Blaine's room just as the door shut. They understood that Blaine is better talking to Copper than them.
"Kurt Hummel" muttered Mrs Anderson.
"Huh?" asked Mr Anderson.
"That was that man's name. Our granddaughter was called Elizabeth Hummel Anderson. So that man must've been Kurt Hummel" said Mrs Anderson.
Both parents looked at each other as they heard Blaine's crying echo fro, his bedroom.
