Pillow Talk and Pending Parenthood:

Chapter Two: Let's Consider Our Options

"Kurt? Kurt are you seriously still awake?"

"Do you know how many options there are to adopt a child?"

"I'm regretting talking you into this…"

"What was that?"

"Kurt, the social worker gave us the information folder so that we could GRADUALLY figure the right path out…"

"But there are so many!"

"Kurt it's three in the morning…"

"Look, look Blaine, are we adopting a baby straight from the womb? That's what Quinn did when we were sophomores, maybe I should call her…"

"You can't call Quinn at three in the morning to ask her about giving up her baby when she was sixteen."

"Why not?"

"Because she'll kill you and I don't really want to be a single dad."

"Okay fine, new topic. What's in vitro? Does that even COUNT as adoption?"

"We can't do in vitro, Kurt."

"Why not?"

"Because that would mean one of us is female, which if THAT were true, I don't think this relationship could work out very well."

"Oh, okay, understood, no in vitro."

"Kurt, how much caffeine have you had?"

"I had one of those 5-hour energy shots."

"I here-by ban those from our apartment forever."

"Spoil sport."

"Only because you woke me up and I have to be at work at 7:30 today."

"Oh, I'm sorry…"

*Kurt clicked off the light and put the folder on the night stand*

"It's okay."

"I just got really excited all of the sudden."

"It's the five hour energy drink."

"No, like, today when we were at Kathy's office, I just got these chills."

*Blaine closed his eyes, but smilled as Kurt continued talking*

"And these visions, you know, do you get them?"

"Visoions?"

"Yea, of us in the future."

"Sometimes."

"What if we have to pick a gender?"

"What?"

"Like, I don't know, I think I'd be really compatable with having a daughter, but you on the other hand would be a really great dad for a son…"

*Blaine grinned again as a tear escaped a closed eyelid*

"Why don't we just let it be a surprise then?"

"Like find someone who's putting their child up for adoption?"

"Yea."

"Isn't that risky?"

"Huh?"

"What if she changes her mind and breaks our hearts?"

"Then we'll try again."

"And again and again?"

"Until we're a family."

"Good, decision made."

"Really? Kurt, you're way too easy to convince of things, you know that?"

"Maybe. Maybe I just trust your opinion."

"I'm glad."

*Kurt tries to sit quietly, but he fidgets on his side of the bed and Blaine laughs*

"When did you dirnk that thing?"

"An hour ago…"

"You have four hours left?"

"Yes I do."

"Babe, you need to go burn that energy off."

"I'm going to change the design of the living room."

*Blaine laughed again*

"You do that."

"I love you."

"I love you."

"Goodnight"

*at seven am as Blaine was about to leave for work, he found his husband wrapped up in a ball on one of the sofa chairs that now faced east instead of its usual south. Blaine smiled and grabbed the throw blanket off of the sofa and threw it gently over Kurt's body. He kissed his head and then scribbled a note for him on the table.*

I like what you did with the living room. We'll call Kathy with our decision when I get home from work. Enjoy your day off. DO NOT DRINK COFFEE.

I Love You: Blaine

So what did you think?
