Burt, Carole, Finn, Kurt and Blaine were gathered around the dining table in the Hummel-Hudson (Hudmel) residence enjoying Thanksgiving dinner. Burt was seated at the head of the table with Kurt to his right and Carole to his left. Next to Carole was Finn and next to Kurt sat Blaine, both boys stealing quick glances though out dinner, blushing when the other caught him staring. Blaine has been invited to spend Thanksgiving with the Hudmels after Kurt let it slip that he would be left at Dalton alone for the holiday. Blaine's parents chose to spend their time traveling around the World, leaving their two sons at Dalton for the Holidays. Blaine's parents were not as accepting of Blaine as Burt and Carole were of Kurt. It wasn't that they didn't love him; they just didn't support his or his brother Shane's 'choice' as they called it. The summer before high school Blaine came out to his parents, their response, sending him to Dalton Academy. Money never was an issue so his parents had him board even though their mansion was only half an hour away from the school. Blaine didn't mind, Dalton was way more accepting and open to him then his parents ever would be, and now he had Kurt. Initially, he did however miss Shane who was younger by a year and a half. Shane is clearly Blaine's brother, though slightly taller both boys have the same hazel eyes and black curly hair. Their personality differences are much more noticeable. Shane is very outgoing and easily makes friends. Blaine is much shyer until he gets to know people and then he is just as outgoing but always more 'dapper' as Kurt calls it. Shane is lengthier and loves to dance while Blaine loves to sing. Blaine and Shane are close, always sharing their concerns and worries with each other, which is why Blaine hated leaving Shane at home. Blaine knew that Shane was also gay, but Shane hadn't come out to their parent's for fear of their reaction. He had seen what had happened with Blaine and was afraid of how his parents would react when they found out that both of their sons were gay. Following Blaine's footsteps Shane also came out the summer before high school. His parents reacted in much of the same way sending Shane to Dalton and increasing their time away from home. The boys never saw their parents except for a few times a year when they would arrive at Dalton for parent events. This is how Blaine now found himself eating Thanksgiving dinner with Kurt's family.

Blaine's train of thought was cut short as Burt cleared his throat and Kurt nudged his knee under the table.

"I'm sorry what?" Blaine stammered.

"I asked what you were doing for Christmas" Burt replied, stabbing a piece of turkey with his fork.

"Oh, yeah, that. Well at the moment I am staying at Dalton. My parents will be gone again and they said that Shane and I could stay at the house but we both prefer Dalton". Burt only knew a small bit of Blaine's relationship with his parents and he found it pathetic that they would leave their sons alone for the holidays to live in the big empty house or at Dalton where they spent much of the year anyways.

"Well, you are welcome to stay with us if you'd like, that is if Shane has a place to stay as well. I wouldn't want him to be alone for Christmas either". Kurt, having remained silent through much of this exchange began to bounce up and down in his seat with one of his goofy smiles plastered to his face.

"Dad! Oh my goodness, thank you!" he squeezed Blaine's hand which he held under the table.

"Wow, thank you - I mean Burt" Blaine was finally able to say after he recovered from the shock. He hadn't expected his boyfriend's father of all people to invite him over for the holidays.

"Of course, no one should be alone on Christmas, and you are practically family now anyways". Blaine smiled and blushed at Burt's comment. It has been a long time since he had felt a part of a family.

"But I want you to check with Shane first before you say yes, he is welcome to stay here as well. He can share a room with Finn". Upon hearing his name Finn jolted up right "What did I do?" He said, wildly looking from face to face.

"Did you not hear a single thing we just said?" Kurt replied with slight annoyance. Blaine sensing Kurt's tone quickly placed his hand on Kurt's knee trying to keep him calm.

"Sorry dude, don't get all angry at me, I was distracted by this delicious food". Kurt relaxed under Blaine's touch and sensing that Finn really was just oblivious. "Well, Dad just said that Blaine can stay here for Christmas since he doesn't have anywhere to be. And if Shane doesn't find someone to stay with he can stay here too and sleep in your room." Kurt replied trying to catch Finn up.

"Oh, that's cool, Shane is chill" Finn had only met Blaine's younger brother once when he picked Kurt up from Dalton.

"Blaine what is Shane doing for Thanksgiving? I forgot to ask you earlier, I'd hate to think he was left at Dalton alone" Carole asked. Carole loved Blaine like he was her own son and she was so happy that Kurt had finally found someone who made him smile the way Blaine did.

Blaine decided that he should probably speak up before they started planning for him and Shane.

"He is with Reed at our house. Reed's mom is busy in New York so they are staying at the house for a few days and then going back to Dalton. I talked to Shane yesterday before we left and he said that Reed invited him to spend Christmas with them in New York". Kurt having heard this smiled. Reed was Kurt's roommate at Dalton and the two had become rather good friends. Kurt and Blaine had spent the better part of a year trying to convince Reed and Shane to finally get together. The other Warblers found this hilarious as the roles had been switched when they were trying to get Kurt and Blaine together.

"Okay, good for him, I'm happy to hear it" Burt replied to Blaine; effectively bring Kurt out of his trance. Burt was a little shocked that Reed's mom would let him stay at his boyfriend's house alone for Thanksgiving but then again they weren't his sons. Soon quiet chatter filled the air as everyone returned to their dinner. Blaine, Finn and Burt were discussing the football game they planned on watching that evening while Kurt rolled his eyes. He never did understand the fascination with the sport, but he knew Blaine enjoyed having people to talk to; it made him feel like he really was a part of the family.

"I'm full!" Kurt exclaimed after clearing every last bit of food from his plate. "That was amazing Carole"

"Thank you Kurt but you made half of it too" Kurt just smiled. He really enjoyed having Carole as his step-mom and cooking was just one of the many things that they had bonded over.

"Me too" Blaine huffed, patting his stomach which was still as flat and chiseled as ever.

"I think I gained 20 pounds from that dinner"

"Honey I don't think you gained anything, you burn calories like no tomorrow" Kurt chimed taking Blaine's hand from his stomach and intertwining their fingers. Kurt stood up, pulling Blaine with him and took his dishes into the kitchen.

"Kurt! Don't you dare do the dishes, you made half this dinner" Carole called after the boys.

Kurt sighed placing his dishes in the sink then taking Blaine's and doing the same. He could hear Carole telling Finn to go into the kitchen and start the dishes as Finn groaned in protest. Kurt, still holding hands with Blaine walked back into the kitchen.

"Finn the dishes are waiting for you in the sink" Kurt said with a smirk as Blaine quietly laughed next to him.

"Dad, Blaine and I will be in my room" Kurt said turning as the two began up the stairs.

"Blaine, game is on in an hour, and Kurt, keep your door open. No funny business!" Burt hollered after them.

Kurt just rolled his eyes.

"If only he knew" he whispered to Blaine, making the curly haired boy blush. Both boys fell silent as their minds flashed to the same memory. A few weeks ago Blaine and Kurt were spending the weekend at Kurt's house instead of Dalton. When Burt and Carole were out for the night and Finn was over at Puck's, Blaine and Kurt had made love. They both knew they were in love, and ready and the moment had presented its self. They hadn't told anyone nor were planning on it, especially Burt who still didn't suspect a thing. The only noticeable difference was that both boys were now always touching, like the separation was physically painful. Even if it was just the touch of fingertips or brush of the shoulder, it set both boys at ease.

Kurt opened his bed room door and pulled Blaine inside.

"So, what do you want to do for an hour?" Blaine asked, climbing to the center of Kurt's bed and leaning back on the headboard.

"We could watch a movie" Kurt quickly replied. Both boys stared at each other and began to laugh. While they may start out watching the movie, it was soon forgotten as soon as their lips met.

"Sure" Blaine replied. "Why don't you put in some Disney movie that we have already seen".

Kurt rummaged through his DVD drawer and pulled out a movie. He popped it into the TV and went to sit beside Blaine. The curly haired boy opened his arms as Kurt snuggled in to his side, resting his head on Blaine's chest. The movie started and Blaine bent down to place kiss on Kurt's head.

"I love you Kurt, and I'm so thankful that you were a terrible spy and stopped me on those stairs"

"I wasn't a bad spy!" Kurt exclaimed his fake anger having no effect as he nuzzled against Blaine.

"Um-hum" Blaine replied in a sarcastic agreement.

"You're lucky I like you Blaine Anderson" Kurt replied in his annoyed voice, though its effect was lost as he raised his lips to meet Blaine's. Their lips met and they kissed softly at first, then growing more desperate as the kiss progress. Once Kurt finally pulled away to catch his breath Blaine reattached his lips to the pale boys neck, softly grazing his lips over the smooth skin. Kurt shifted to place his lips on Blaine's and they continued until Blaine pulled back and rested his head on Kurt's chest, smiling as he heard his heart beat slowly return to a normal pace. Kurt was slowly moving his fingers through Blaine's hair which was free of its normal gel hold.

"I love you" Blaine whispered into Kurt's chest. Kurt barely able to make out the whisper chuckled,

"I love you too Blaine and I'm so excited to spend Christmas with you". The boys relaxed into their embrace and continued watching the movie.

A hesitant knock came from Kurt's door. He lifted his head from where it rested on Blaine's who was still snuggled against his chest.

"Come in".

Finn slowly opened the door, hesitating and stealing a quick glance at the boys to make sure it was safe for him to look. Kurt sensing Finn's uncertainty rolled his eyes. Once Finn was convinced that they were only cuddling he strode into the room.

"Blaine, I just wanted to let you know the game was about to start".

Blaine sat up, intertwining his fingers with Kurt's as he did.

"Okay, thanks for letting me know, we'll be down in a second".

Finn nodded in response and turned to head back down stairs, leaving the door wide open. Blaine began to sit up, pressing a quick kiss to Kurt's lips and hopped of the bed pulling Kurt with him. "We?" Kurt tried to protest but was cut short was Blaine's lips met his.

"Come on, it won't be that bad, plus we can cuddle on the couch. You can even sleep through the whole thing, as long as you're in my arms." Blaine smiled, pressing a kiss to Kurt's check and turning off the TV as they headed downstairs. Kurt was still being dragged along by Blaine but was surprised when the smaller boy pulled him into his arms and laid them down on the couch.

"You owe me" Kurt whispered into Blaine's ear as he arranged himself in Blaine's arms. Blaine was lying on his back with Kurt sprawled on his chest. Blaine's hands were bound around Kurt's waist as he held the other boy close.

"Is that so?" Blaine whispered in reply, tightening his grip on Kurt's waist and kissing the perfectly styled hair.

"Yep, I'm very angry with you right now" Kurt said, muffled by Blaine's shirt. Blaine chuckled and Kurt smiled as he felt the vibrations flow through Blaine's chest.

"I couldn't tell" Blaine replied, attempting to focus on the game but finding himself distracted by the boy he held in his arms.

"Well you have been known to be pretty oblivious" Kurt smiled, nuzzling into Blaine's chest.

"Oh! That hurt" Blaine retorted, Kurt looked up with a smirk on his face. Both boys gazing into each other's eye with nothing but love.

"Can you two stop bickering, some of us are trying to watch the game" Finn huffed turning back to the screen.

"Someone's grumpy" Kurt whispered as he snuggled into Blaine and closed his eyes. Blaine replied with a quick kiss to Kurt's forehead before turning back to watch the game. Burt, Finn, and Blaine watched the game, occasionally throwing out commentary and Carole soon joined Burt on the other couch once she finished putting the apple pie in the oven. Kurt, comfortable in his boyfriend's arms began to fall asleep.

Carole turned to Burt "Look at them" motioning towards Blaine and Kurt snuggled together on the couch, Kurt's happiness showing even when he was asleep and Blaine occasionally tightening his grip on Kurt or placing a kiss in his hair or on his cheek. "They are so lucky to have each other and I am so thankful that they found each other". Burt replied with a nod and glanced at the boys. He was so happy that Kurt had finally found someone who understood him, even in this town. He knew that Blaine made his son happy and he enjoyed having Blaine around. Burt even started to consider Blaine his son.

The Hudmels plus Blaine continued to watch the game until it was over. Carole got up and announced that dessert would be ready shortly. Finn stood up from the chair he was sitting in and stretched.

"I'll come help you set the table mom, I don't want to be stuck doing the dishes again" He grumbled as he walked into the kitchen. Burt also got up, and turned the TV off. He turned to Blaine,

"Wake Kurt up, we will be eating dessert in 5 and Kurt would flip if he didn't get any pie." Blaine nodded, a smile plastered to his face. He knew all too well how Kurt got when he didn't get dessert. As Burt walked out of the living room Blaine tightened his grip on Kurt.

"Hey Kurt, sweetie, you need to wake up". Kurt just grumbled and tightened his grip on Blaine's shirt. Blaine shifted until he and Kurt were lying side by side. He leaned in and pressed a kiss to Kurt's pink lips.

"Come on, I know you're comfortable but Carole is getting the pie out of the oven and if we don't get in there Finn might eat it all". Kurt replied with a mumble that sounded like "Don't care, too comfy".

Blaine sensing that Kurt was being stubborn brought his hands from Kurt's waist to his face and held it as he once again brought their lips together. He could slowly feel Kurt's response as he began to move his lips with Blaine's. Blaine pulled away and tried to sit up only to have Kurt grab his waist and pull him back to the couch.

"I wasn't done kissing you" he replied as he brought their faces back together. Blaine kissed back then sighed and pulled Kurt off the couch.

"Come on you, let's go eat some pie" Blaine smirked as he pressed on last kiss to Kurt's pouting lips.

The boys walked hand in hand into the kitchen where a pumpkin and apple pie awaited. Burt, Carole and Finn had already sat down. Carole shooting glares at Finn as he tried to sneak a bite. "Took you long enough" Finn grumbled sensing the arrival of Kurt and Blaine.

"Sorry" Blaine replied. "Kurt wouldn't wake up".

"That's not true", Kurt countered in his matter-of-fact tone. "I was awake I just didn't want to move, I was much too comfortable" Kurt gave Blaine's hand a squeeze as they sat down.

"Well let's dig in" Burt replied breaking the silence that had fallen. Everyone mumbled agreement. Once dessert was finished, Kurt announced that he and Blaine were going to sleep. Kurt was planning on hitting up the Black Friday sales and Blaine being the good boyfriend promised to go with him. Everyone said good night and the two boys walked up the stairs to Kurt's room.

Once they had both changed into their pajamas and Kurt had finished his nightly skin care routine both boys snuggled together in Kurt's bed. Kurt ducked his head in the area between Blaine's neck and shoulder, placing a kiss on his collarbone.

"Good night Blaine, I love you and I am very thankful to have you in my life".

"I'm very thankful to have you in my life as well, Good night and I love you too". Blaine replied has he tightened his grip on Kurt, pulling him closer and planting a kiss into the soft brown hair. Both boys quickly drifting off to sleep in each other's arms.

The rest of the Thanksgiving holiday passed quickly and soon it was Sunday. Kurt and Blaine stood in the doorway saying their goodbyes. They were headed back to Dalton where they would stay for the next three weeks before they would return home for Christmas. Hugs and kisses were given and soon the two boys were headed back to Dalton, excited to see their friends and grateful that in three weeks they would both return to the place they called home.
