Monday mornings are always hectic. Especially in the Hummel-Anderson house. This particular morning ten year old Mackynzie was unable to find her uniforms socks and six year old twins Elizabeth and Finn had a bake sale for their class so Kurt was rushing together six dozen of his famous Oreo brownies.
"Blaine, Can you help Kynzie find her socks?"
"Sure thing hun."
You would think they were just your perfectly average perfectly domesticated family, and they were except for the fact that Kurt was editor in chief of Vogue and Blaine was a huge Broadway star having already won a few Tony's, that were currently in a glass case in their basement-turned Tony room.
Blaine carried Kynzie in on his hip, her long knit socks in hand. He placed her on the chair and told her to get her socks and shoes on. Kurt looked over at his ten year old, "I see daddy helped you find you socks."
"Yes! Papa can you braid my hair?"
"Sure sweetie."
Kurt walked over and began braiding Kynzie's long hair. While he braided she quietly hummed a song from Wicked under her breathe, she was a spitting image of Rachel. Just as Kurt was tying off Kynzie's braid Elizabeth ran in.
"Papa, Papa!"
"Yes sweetheart?"
"Do we get to go to the Vogue today or the workshop?"
Everyday after school the kids either went to Vogue or whatever show or workshop Blaine was doing.
"The Vogue today, my dear."
Elizabeth's little face lit up with joy and her blond pigtails were bouncing against her shoulders.
"Elizabeth, where's your brother?"
"Hes putting on shoes"
"Okay," Kurt nodded before yelling out, "we're leaving in five minutes so move it or lose it!
Kurt's work day was always hectic,whether it's because of a major malfunction with computer servers or some new intern forgot to make his tea just sat at his desk going through his daily emails and checking to see which articles were done for the next upcoming issue of Vogue which was due out within the next week or two but had to be sent to the publisher by the end of today or tomorrow to make the deadline. The whole office was in a flurry trying to make sure this issue went out on time.
A knock at his office door followed by his newest intern Nick poking his head "Mr. Hummel-Anderson you have a staff meeting in 15 minutes! " Kurt glanced over at him said "Thank you " as he thought that the new intern reminded him of himself when he worked under Ms. Wright at all those years ago. Finn and Elizabeth were thankfully being somewhat entertained by Kynzie so he could get some work done. " Kynzie you ok with babysitting while i go to this meeting?" said Kurt as he printed of the few things he needed for the meeting.
"Yeah Papa thats fine" said Kynzie rolling her eyes and almost sticking her tongue out at Kurt but restrained herself. She gave Finn and Elizabeth some coloring books and crayons hoping that it would distract them for a bit while Kurt was in the meeting. Kurt grabbed the things from the printer added them to his folder and kissed his children before heading to the meeting reminding them to behave for their older sister. "Yes Papa" said Finn and Elizabeth almost simultaneously.
The staff meeting was going fairly smoothly considering that one or two of the articles needed to be edited before the next issue was due to be sent to the publisher. "Ok onto next order of business what kind of ad retention can we use in this upcoming issue?" Kurt looked over as a new hire, her name he thought was Annie maybe half raised her hand. "Well why don't we use color, I know everyone here likes it chic and simple but maybe color is what we need." Kurt looked at the girl with her long bleached blonde almost white hair and collared purple tank. She was memorable. "Yes thats a good thought..Annie may I see you in my office later? Let's talk about our audience with this issue. This is our November issue and I want it to dazzle and make our readers suggest it to friends and family. I want us to have an increase in subscriptions by the end of December. I want to prove that printed material isn't dead. Any suggestions should be ran by Nycole our research manager.
Kurt called an end to the meeting and went back to his office. Finn was sitting on his office chair, asleep. Kurt would always be astounded how much like his uncle he really was. Elizabeth, who had always been obsessed with the fashion world was marvelling at his inspiration boards for the upcoming spring season. Kynzie was laying on the floor of his office, headphones in her ears, "Come on kids time to go wish daddy luck before his show!" The three kids all yelped with joy and ran to the coat closet and put on their coats and boots.
Blaine had just finished going through his general pre show was currently starring as Hedwig in Hedwig and The Angry Inch at the Belasco Theatre. "Daddy Blaine" came the sound of all three of his kids as they entered his dressing room."We got you some flowers" said Kynzie revealing the bouquet of flowers from behind her back."Thank you so much you guys,"said Blaine giving each of his children a hug and a kiss ."you're welcome," said Finn and Elizabeth simultaneously. Kurt chose that moment to enter the room making an entrance like usual humming a familiar tune, that sounded oddly like The Origin of Love that he was due to perform on that very stage, saying in his best impersonation of Yitzhak , " Ladies and Gentleman whether you like it or not HEDWIG" Blaine swept his wonderful husband into a passionate kiss to the much bitter annoyance of their three children."Get a room you two," said Kynzie rolling her eyes in a very Rachel - like fashion.
Kurt and blaine both laughed, she needed to spend less time with her auntie's Rachel, Mercedes and Santana. Kurt kissed Blaine once more for good luck and took the children back to the house for dinner. Once a dinner of homemade mac and cheese had been devoured Kurt drove the kids to dance class where they would be for the next three hours, until eight o clock.
Naturally like any parent who works and has a full time job kurt used his three hours to return to the office where he had been just two hours prior. He opened his email and in the midst of the forty-seven work emails was one in particular that caught his attention right away.

Dear glee club,
It saddens me to think of how around seventeen years ago we lost someone so dear to all of our hearts, Finn. Though i know that reunions are customary in fives or tens i feel like this is the time for us to have one. So i want to arrange a reunion to remember such an important person in all of our lives. Please let me know what dates work for everyone.I shall be in touch with the possible dates and am willing to work with everyone's schedule to make sure as many of you can come as possible.
Don't Stop Believin,

Kurt froze after reading this wanting to call Blaine and see if he got the email to but then remembered that his show wouldn't be getting out until around 10 at the earliest so their discussion about the email would have to wait.
