AU, obviously. Reviews are like Klaine, I just can't get enough:)

If you asked Kurt Hummel in high school what he predicted to be doing with his life at age 26, he never would have said a word about children. Especially not a three-year-old daughter.

Mollie Elizabeth Hummel wasn't actually Kurt's biological daughter. He was single and gay, he would have never chosen to adopt a child at such a young age with no other support for him in New York City. But, when Brittany had been impregnated by some jerk that got her drunk and took advantage of her, Kurt couldn't just stand by and watch Brittany have an abortion. He was fully against it. So, after months and months of debating with himself, he agreed to take the baby off of her hands.

When Brittany had given birth to Mollie, she had signed her name as the mother, but had placed Kurt on the papers as the father. Which, even though it was a blatant lie, was actually a lot easier than going through the process of complete adoption. Brittany's family had given Kurt quite extensive amounts of money and had also assured him that if he ever needed anything from any of them that they would be there for him. So, that helped a lot, too.

Kurt was 21 when Mollie was born on October 24th. Kurt had been 21 for a while, and he never was a huge drinker in the first place, so he didn't really feel as if he was missing out on a lot by taking in a baby. He had an extremely steady career in fashion, designing his own clothes from the comfortable office in his apartment in the middle of New York City. The only problem that he had with Mollie was the fact that taking care of a child left little time to date. Besides, he was a father. Nobody in their right mind wanted to date a 26 year old father of a 5 year old little girl that wasn't even technically his. But, Kurt hadn't given up too much hope. He had a few dates here or there, but nothing too serious. Most of the guys Kurt had gone out with just didn't fit Kurt's expectations.

So that all brings us to the present time. Kurt was sitting at the island in their kitchen with a bored expression on his face as he read through pages and pages of nannies. He had already gotten through 16 applications and 3 cups of coffee. Kurt sighed as he heard little footsteps hit the stairs. He reluctantly turned away from the stack of papers in front of him and turned his chair so he could face Mollie.

Mollie looked like a carbon-copy of Brittany with wider eyes and paler skin, in reality. She actually looked like Kurt a bit, too. She had curlier hair than her mother, but it was the same blonde color with radiance and shine. Today, her bangs were clipped back with a stylish purple bow that matched her sundress. She smiled up at Kurt, her bright blue eyes shimmering with excitement. Mollie was extremely graceful and elegant for her age, a quality that came from both her mother's dancing background and Kurt's elegant presence that seemed to rub off on people. She was a very polite 5-year-old girl, but also was a little ditsy like Brittany. Mollie daydreamed often. She was also extremely intelligent for her young age.

"Daddy?" Mollie asked Kurt shyly, her big blue eyes still shining and her mouth still curved into a charming smile.

"Yes, baby?" Kurt replied, smiling back at her and scooping her into his arms, eliciting a giggle from the little girl.

"Can we please go see Aunt Rachel and Uncle Finn today? I want to show them my new dress!" Mollie exclaimed, patting the fabric down delicately as they settled into the couch. Kurt smiled at her before pecking her on the cheek.

"Sure thing, honey. Do you want to go now or do you want to watch a movie first? If we go now, we might be able to go shopping with Aunt Rachel and Auntie Tana. I heard they're going to the mall." Kurt said, smiling warmly at the little girl in his arms.

"Shopping!" Mollie exclaimed, her eyes growing wider. She jumped a little in anticipation.

Mollie only liked shopping because she could always point out which outfits that her Daddy made. Kurt and the girls all found this completely adorable, so they took her out as much as possible.

"I'll take it that you want to go now," Kurt said, picking Mollie back up and carrying her towards the door. Kurt stopped at the mirror to take a quick look at his hair and then continued on his way out the door, heading to Rachel's apartment, a few floors beneath his and Mollie's.

"Hey Kurt! And hello to you, pretty girl. I love your dress!" Rachel exclaimed as she greeted them at the front door. Mollie ran into Rachel's embrace and pulled back, smiling.

"Thank you! Daddy made it for me." Mollie said proudly before running towards Santana, who was chatting with Finn in the living room.

"Auntie Tana!" Mollie squealed, jumping on Santana. Santana smiled widely at the little girl before picking her up and kissing her cheek sloppily.

"There's my favorite niece! How are you doing, little girl?" Santana asked, spinning Mollie around a little before setting her back down on the floor. Mollie smiled up at her.

"I'm doing quite well, how are you?" She asked politely, pushing her blonde hair behind her ear and smiling charmingly at Santana. Santana repressed a snort before responding and then turned to Kurt, who had looked on from his seat in the kitchen with awe.

"Only you would raise your daughter to be such a little charmer, Hummel. I'm surprised she didn't hand me a bouquet of roses." Santana whispered to him, smiling devilishly.

"Roses, huh? Maybe she will, next time. My mother was a florist. It seems quite fitting." Kurt quipped back, smiling slightly.

"She looks a lot like you for being Brittany's daughter. Not that she doesn't look like her, either. She looks like a mixture of both of you, which is super weird, because she must have been raped by some straight, douchey Hummel look-a-like. You're doing a really nice job of being a parent, though. Fits you nicely." Santana said after a moment of silence that was spent examining the little girl, who was now seated on Finn's lap, babbling about ponies and butterflies and princesses. Kurt turned his head to face Santana and smiled.

"Thanks. That means a lot, actually. I'm still a little lonely, though. I guess I never really expected to be a single father. I kind of wanted to be married first, or at least have a boyfriend of some sort." Kurt said, sighing softly. Santana nodded sadly at him and shrugged.

"He's out there somewhere, you know. You'll meet your prince someday, Kurt." She said reassuringly.

"Oh! Daddy! You're looking for a prince? All you have to do is stop looking. Then he'll find you!" Mollie said, squealing. She then went into detail about how Sleeping Beauty wasn't looking for a prince and that is when she found hers. Kurt smiled at his daughter and contemplated what she said.

Maybe she was right. Maybe if Kurt stopped looking for love, it would come and find him. So that's exactly what he was going to do.

"Daddy made that scarf. And he made those boots. They kind of look like the boots that the prince in my dreams wears. He's nice. He plays piano and has curly hair. He also has boots just like Daddy's." Mollie said, pointing at random articles of clothing around the mall. They had been in the mall for about 3 hours now, and it was as if the little girl barely stopped talking. Not that anyone minded. They all loved to be in Mollie's presence and would listen to her stories any day. They were actually quite entertaining.

Suddenly, the little girl grew silent by Kurt's side. He turned to look at her, curiosity peaking and concern growing.

That's when he spotted what she was looking at. Her eyes were transfixed on the brand new ice cream shop that was straight ahead of them. He chuckled at his daughter and ruffled her hair slightly before turning to Rachel and Santana, who both looked quite exhausted from their day of shopping.

"I'm going to take Mollie to the new ice cream shop over there. You guys can head home. I'll see you tomorrow, probably." Kurt said, sneaking a glance at his now-excited daughter. Her eyes grew noticeably wider and she had a huge smile plastering her face.

"Alright. Bye guys!" Rachel said, hugging Mollie and Kurt. Santana waved at her side, looking too tired to move. She trudged along with Rachel until they were out of sight. Then, Kurt turned to Mollie, grabbed her hand, and started walking towards the ice cream shop.

"Thank you Daddy, thank you so, so, so, SO much!" Mollie squealed, licking her ice cream excitedly. Kurt chuckled at her and took the last bite of his frozen yogurt before throwing it away. Mollie smiled up at him before hugging his legs tightly. She was very short for a five year old, and that was pretty much the only trait that she had in common with her biological father, according to Brittany. They headed back out to the car in silence as Mollie ate her ice cream and Kurt examined his surroundings, looking for fashion inspiration for his next project. They drove home in the same silence until Mollie finally finished her ice cream and proceeded to talk about how trolls hated ice cream and anything sweet because they were mean and yucky. Kurt listened as his daughter talked animatedly to him about the pros and cons of trolls and elves for the rest of the ride, basking in her imagination.

Once they had reached the house, Kurt resigned back to the kitchen to look for a nanny once again, and Mollie retreated to her bedroom to play with her dolls. Kurt frowned at the next 3 applications until he saw someone that caught his eye.

It wasn't the first male that had been an applicant, but it was the first male who openly expressed that he was gay and that if that was going to be a problem then he wasn't going to take the job. The man was 25, a year younger than Kurt, and was studying to be a music teacher at NYU. He graduated from Dalton Academy, about 2 hours away from where Kurt lived in Ohio, which shocked Kurt even more. He was the lead singer for the Dalton Academy Warblers, and Kurt instantly recognized his picture from his old glee club days. Kurt smiled at the memories and continued to read through the man's resume. After looking through everything, Kurt thought he had finally found the man for the job.

Blaine Anderson.

Kurt scanned through the contact information and called him up, gaining an immediate answer.

"Hello?" Blaine said through the speaker of his phone.

"Hey, this is Kurt Hummel. I was just looking through your resume for my nanny position and you seem like the perfect fit. I have no problem with gay people, considering I am one myself, and the fact that you're from Ohio, only 2 hours away from my hometown, caught my eye. I'd like to offer you an interview for the position." Kurt replied, smiling.

"Oh! Hi. I'm Blaine Anderson, but you already knew that. Are you from Lima, I'm guessing?" Blaine asked, a smile evident in his voice.

"Yeah, I was. Funny, I actually contemplated transferring to Dalton Academy when I was a junior, actually." Kurt said, laughing slightly, but then inwardly cringing at the memory. He switched the topic before Blaine could answer. "So, about that interview?"

"Oh, yes, of course. What day would you like to meet?" Blaine asked.

"How about tomorrow? I'll give you my address so you can come meet my daughter, Mollie." Kurt suggested, still smiling.

"That works perfectly fine with me. Why don't you text it so I can save it to remember?" Blaine replied.

"Alright. I'll see you tomorrow then, Blaine."

"Okay. Goodbye, Kurt. Oh, by the way, I love your fashion line."

Kurt giggled once he had hung up the phone before texting Blaine the address.

I have a feeling that we are going to get along swimmingly.

Oh, how right he had been on that.
