IT STARTED WITH A TEAR…

*Kurt had been called into work to do and extra shift earlier that day, and he decided to take it because he hated to think that he would ever let anyone down.

Blaine meanwhile was sitting on the couch, staring off into space, a million miles away, while waiting for Kurt to return home from work that day.*

Blaine's train of thought is a million miles away when he is suddenly snapped back into reality by the telephone ringing. He gets up and makes his way to the phone to pick it up. As he picks it up and says hello he hears Kurt put his key in the front door lock, turn it, and come inside.

Kurt can hear that Blaine is on the phone so he drops his satchel near the front door and heads over to him, but he suddenly stops.

He can see there is something wrong with Blaine. Blaine continues talking – "Yes. I see. Ok." Then a single tear rolls down Blaine's cheek.

Kurt by now is clearly worried, and keeps trying to ask Blaine what is wrong, Blaine who by now is almost sobbing un-controllably . Blaine finishes up his conversation and hangs up the phone. He looks at Kurt, desperation and panic in his eyes and says – "Oh Kurt", before embracing him in the tightest of hugs ever. (By now Kurt is finding it hard to breathe, as Blaine is holding him so tight, but he doesn't want to say anything, because obviously Blaine needs him at this point of time, even though Kurt is unsure why.)

Finally, after what seems like forever Blaine loosens his grip and drops his hands to rest them on Kurt's waist.

Kurt, with a look of panic still all over his face slowly makes eye-contact with Blaine. In a quiet, almost whisper like voice he asks "Blaine what's the matter? And what was that phone call all about?"

Blaine takes a deep breath and again hugs Kurt tightly. He then says to Kurt – "I have something to tell you." Blaine leads Kurt over to the couch, and they both sit down. Wide-eyed Kurt looks at Blaine for re-assurance. "Kurt… Or I should now say - Daddy?" Blaine says. Kurt looks at Blaine confused. An ever so slight smile begins to appear on Blaine's face. "D-d-d-daddy? Did I hear you correctly Blaine?" Kurt asks, a shocked expression now covering his face.

"Kurt we're going to be parents! That was the adoption agency on the phone. They have a baby for us."

*You see for many years Kurt and Blaine had, had their name on the adoption agency list, in the hopes of one day being able to adopt a baby and become parents. Now the day had finally arrived – with a simple phone call.

Kurt sat there, still is shock after hearing this news. You see he thought that something terrible had happened, and that was why Blaine was crying when he first walked in the door. Now come to find out that him and Blaine were about to become parents.

"Kurt" Blaine quietly asked, snapping Kurt out of his whirling train of thought. "Yes Blaine?" "Are you happy with the news?" "Oh of course I am! You are going to make the best father ever, and our child will be the best dress child on the face of the earth. Oh, this is perfect" Kurt says as he stands up and starts to head towards the spare room. "So much to plan and organise!"

He stops and turns to look at Blaine, a flicker of excitement flashes through his eyes. Blaine has seen this look in Kurt's eyes before and he wonders what he about to be in for… Kurt starts running towards Blaine and dives on him, pinning him to the couch in the process. "I love you" he says. "I love you too" replies Blaine and they kiss. Kurt then lays his head on Blaine's chest, and thinks loudly to himself – "Parents. We're going to be parents." Blaine just smiles and kisses his boyfriend on the forehead before replying –" Yes! Yes we are!"

They lay together in a warm embrace on the couch, happy knowing that with one simple phone call that neither of their lives will ever be the same again – yet knowing it will be for the better – FOREVER!
