A.N.: I promised you a sequel for 'All Or Nothing'...So this is basically what this is…a sequel to 'All Or Nothing'…I think that maybe you could read it as a standalone if you don't mind that some things may be a little confusing, but I guess it'd be better if you go and read 'All Or Nothing' first :D
Whether you came here from 'All Or Nothing' or just stumbled across this some other way, have fun :D
Story Notes: This starts out happy enough, but it is NOT a happy story in itself (there'll be fluff of course but…it's not…just…yeah…ahh just wait and see *lessthan3*), and whether there will be a happy ending is yet to be determined…I'll have to wait and see how the story decides to go I mean I got it outlined and stuff but I just haven't quite…ok awkward…excuse my rambling *headdesk* I'll shut up now…
Just thought I'd warn you…if you choose to read on…and I hope I didn't scare anyone off here…ok I'm done now…really…
Enjoy! *lessthan3*
Disclaimer: Yeah…no…I don't own Glee…Klaine…Darren or Chris *le sigh* or anyone or anything else you recognize…unless it's my OC's and you know them from the prequel :D
Chapter Notes: Ok…this is just a little…how do I put it…appetizer? :D
Just something to get you (and me I guess) started on this story and back into the dynamic that 'All Or Nothing' left behind and see who's still interested…
Enjoy :D
Kurt and Blaine Hummel had been married for going on 3 years now and they still couldn't be happier. They had traded their apartment for a comfortable house with a giant garden on the outskirts of New York, where they could take good care of their two cats and the newest member of their family, a Husky-American-White-Shepherd mix puppy named Cas.
Kurt had his own designer label and Blaine's songs were always at least in the top 40, which Kurt found hilarious for obvious reasons. They also spent time on furthering both of their Broadway careers.
Drawing courage, strength and inspiration from each other, no matter what happened, it seemed as if nothing could possible stop the dream team, especially not since they could count on their family and friends to have their backs.
Well, the Hudmel family. They hadn't heard anything from Blaine's mother since she the trial, and Jonathan Anderson would send a postcard every Christmas and on birthdays, but nothing more. Not that it mattered. The two boys had long learned that all they needed was each other.
They were happy with their lives now. But there was one topic that hadn't come up for a while now and it was just a matter of time until it would jump them again.
Kurt had been very aware of that. It didn't help his surprise as Blaine actually chose to bring it up one night, while they were once again lying in their bed just holding each other as they tried to fall asleep.
"Hey baby…" the raven started.
"Mhh?" Kurt hummed in acknowledgement, although he was already way more than half asleep.
"You know…lately I've been thinking…"
"Ngghh…'s never a good thing…" Kurt teased sleepily.
Blaine chuckled softly in response, kissing Kurt's temple.
"Yeah yeah…but still…I just…I have everything I could have ever wished for, a house, pets, money, jobs doing what I love the most…hell even more than I ever dreamed of, I have you, but sometimes I just…" he trailed off, sighing lowly as he stared into the darkness seemingly looking at nothing on particular.
Kurt shifted a little so that he could look into Blaine's eyes, a lot more awake right now, as he made hazel eyes meet his own.
"What is it?" Kurt probed gently.
"It's nothing…really…it's stupid…" Blaine waved it off "Just go to sleep baby…I'm just tired…"
Kurt shook his head a small smile playing on his lips.
"Oh baby…I've known you for almost 10 years now, don't you think I can tell when something is bothering you by now?"
"You always have been able to read me…sometimes I had the feeling you know me better than I know myself…" Blaine granted him.
They both laughed, thinking of incidents like the aftermath of the 'Rachel Berry Trainwreck Extravaganza' or Blaine desperately wanting to sing some Powerhouse 80 rock songs, on both of which occasions Kurt had (more or less) gently nudged him into the right direction.
"See…so what is it, you can tell me…"
"It's just…sometimes I…I just feel like something is missing…" Blaine replied almost inaudibly.
It took Kurt a while to understand what Blaine had even said, his sleepdrunk brain having some difficulty catching up. But when Blaine's words registered, his expression grew unbelievably soft as he placed a tender kiss on his husband's lips.
"Blaine…is this because…I…" Kurt frowned, at himself, because he couldn't think of the right thing to say at the moment.
Blaine misread the expression on Kurt's face and his struggle for words completely, making him hurry to try and rectify the situation.
"No…don't get me wrong…it's not you…you're amazing…I couldn't ask for anyone more amazing than you because there is no one, and it's not like you don't satisfy…"
"Blaine Blaine Blaine…it's ok…" Kurt calmed down the flustered raven. "really…I understand…and I know what this is about…it's about having kids, having a family…I know you always wanted that."
"Kurt…I…I would never pressure you into anything right? And I want you…need you to know that I'm fine with it being just us…"
"I know baby…I know…" the younger boy said "I really understand…but…this is not something we should discuss while both of our brains are only working on standby…we'd just go all overemotional and stuff…and this is too important a step to be taken lightly…"
"You're right…" Blaine agreed "I love you more than anything else, you know that?"
"I love you too…now let's go to sleep…I bet Cas is gonna insist on throwing us out of bed at some ungodly hour…"
Blaine chuckled in response to Kurt's mock-exasperation. He grew very serious though, when Kurt suddenly looked at him intensely, holding his gaze.
"I heard you though…" Kurt simply said.
Blaine understood, nodded and pulled Kurt in for a short kiss before pulling him flush against his chest. They would talk this through and make a decision together. Just as always.
The thought was strangely comforting to both of them as the drifted off to sleep.
Chapter End Notes: So…I guess we're all set for the story to start kicking now :D
I hope you liked this chapter and are (just maybe) looking forward to what is yet to come…I'd love to hear what you think so just drop me a line if you have the chance… :D
I have 3 stories I'm currently working on, but since this is the one that came first it's the first one I actually start off posting…I will try and update regularly, but as soon as the first chapters of my other two projects are up the update pace will strongly depend on the feedback I get…just to be fair *lessthan3*
I hope I'll be able to provide you with a more profund…umm…well let's just say I hope that I'll be able to update soon ;)
Love,
CITC
