Nightmares

And thus was born Family Story Night. Most kids would think they were too old and twelve and thirteen to let their parents tell them stories, but not Katy and Dalton. Every Sunday night, Blaine or Kurt would tell them a story from when they were kids. Usually it was Kurt, considering most of Blaine's stories weren't very cheery.

First, Kurt had to tell the Auntie Quinn teen pregnancy story. Then, he told them about the time their godmother, Mercedes, had formed a crush on Kurt and thought they were dating. Katy cringed and giggled when he told them that she'd busted his windows.

"Ooh, ooh! Tell us when the story of when you told Grandpa!" Katy demanded.

"No, I think that's enough for tonight. It's past ten," Kurt said, and the parents led the kids to their bedrooms. Then it was just Kurt and Blaine.

They got ready for bed and quickly fell asleep. Kurt was just dozing off when Blaine began tossing and turning and whimpering in his sleep. He was saying things like, "Stay away" and "get off." Subconsciously Blaine scooted closer to Kurt and wrapped his arms around his waist, burying his face in his shoulder and whimpering again. Suddenly Blaine awoke with a start, his eyes snapping open without any warning.

"What happened?" Kurt asked. "Did you have a nightmare?"

Blaine looked up at Kurt with wet eyes and simply nodded. Kurt brought him closer and began to rub his back soothingly and making comforting "shh" noises while Blaine cried quietly. Once Blaine had mostly collected himself he began describing his nightmare.

"Remember the Sadie H-Hawkins dance I told you about? It was when I was waiting to get picked up, but instead of being with Josh, I was with you. And then those idiots came around the c-corner to beat us up, but they only went for y-you. And I t-tried to fight them o-off, but they pushed me to the ground. It was h-horrible." He buried his face into Kurt's shoulder again.

"Shh, it's okay," Kurt whispered. "We're both fine. I'm here, honey. It's okay."

"Kurt?" Blaine asked, not looking up at him this time.

"Yes?"

"I'm scared," Blaine breathed, like a little boy during a thunderstorm.

"It's okay, we're safe and sound at home."

"No, I mean, I'm scared for the kids." Now he looked up at Kurt. "They're going in to junior high. They're going to be the perfect targets because they have two dads. Especially Dalton. What are we going to do?"

"Well, what can we do?" They both knew it was pessimistic and sad, but true. "We can't change anything. If anything goes wrong, we'll go straight to the principal. No hesitation."

"I love you." The words came out, again, in a whisper, but this time they were warm and comforting. He wasn't scared anymore. "More than you'll ever know."

"I love you too. More than you'll ever know," Kurt replied, reciting their "thing" and placing a gentle kiss on Blaine's forehead before they both fell asleep in each other's arms.

Aww! *insert heart here because on this site they just turn into threes*

On an off-topic note, if Blaine doesn't become a season regular in season 3, I will cry so hard. :P He should totally transfer to McKinley. That would be so cute. And I hope their only drama is only finding a way to avoid bullying and the school accepting them. They should never break up, they're way too damn cute!

And, even though Blaine is supposed to be an adult, no one ever fully gets over that stuff. And besides, the opportunity was there for some adorable Klaine and I just snatched it! And who doesn't love childish Blaine?

Until next time!
