So, here's the next chapter! This one's a bit of a domestic future fic, which is where the random word led me :D Hopefully after the really tragic prompts of the last three chapters, this one won't be too bad! :D See you at the end!


Supermarket

The automatic door slid open and Kurt Hummel-Anderson stepped through, dragging the trolley behind him. The little girl sitting in the carry seat squealed with delight and reached for the door but they were already out of reach.

'Come on, honey, don't play with the doors. Dad'll be here in a minute.' The girl settled back into her chair with a slight pout, watching Kurt with her dark pensive eyes.

'Kurt.' The voice at the door was breathless, as was the man standing there, breathing heavily as he held out the eco-bags they'd left behind in the car. Kurt took them and placed it in the trolley beneath their daughter. Blaine took control of the cart, wheeling it through the entrance to the supermarket.

'Daddy?' the little girl asked, spinning in her seat to face Blaine.

'Yeah, Charlie?'

'How come we donts come to the dupermarket very often?'

'Supermarket,' Kurt corrected, butting in from where he was pulling a box of cereal from a top shelf. 'And because normally we buy our groceries on the computer and get them delivered by the delivery man. Except your dad can't find his credit card, so we had to risk coming down here even though if either one of your daddys get seen they'll probably be mobbed alive by a group of die-hard broadway fans.'

'What's a die-card broad fan?'

'Never mind, honey.'

Blaine pushed the trolley as Kurt passed things into it. Neither of them noticed the little girl between them who repeatedly snuck anything with fancy packaging into the cart.

'Daddy can I have one of-' she asked after a short while and Kurt turned, staring for the first time at the small pile of brightly coloured goods beneath her seat.

'Charleston Freida Elizabeth Sofia Hummel-Anderson! What have you been doing?'

The little girl grinned, holding out a box of iced cakes. 'I'm shopping like daddy!' And she dropped the box ceremoniously into the trolley.

'No,' Kurt said, the slightest hint of anger fighting through. 'No, Charleston. You do not put things into the trolley that daddy does not approve, okay? What is this anyway?' He held up a box of tampons for Blaine to inspect.

'Well, if we buy them, at least we'll be prepared!' the shorter man grinned.

'Yeah, at least ten years in advance!' Kurt grabbed the box and pushed it back against the shelf, not caring that they were now in the confectionary aisle and nowhere near where the tampons should go.

But Charleston was not having any of it.

'Daddy! I wanted them! They're pwetty!'

'No, honey. We are not buying you tampons. I've done that once for Rachel, and I am never doing that again.' He reached back into the trolley, quickly pulling out the rather large stash of goods their daughter had collected. He was shoving them haphazardly onto a half empty shelf when Blaine grabbed his hand.

'Kurt, honey. We need the tomato paste. I don't think the pizza will quite work without it.' Blaine's tone was gently and Kurt leaned against him, letting out a sigh.

'God, I'm a wreck.'

'No,' Blaine said. 'You're not. You're a dad.' His arms circled Kurt's waist, pressing him close and he kissed gently against his neck. 'You have a brilliant career and still manage to look after me and Charlie. I'd never cope without you.'

Kurt smiled a wan smile. 'I'd never cope without you, either.' He snorted. 'Clearly.' He turned so he was facing Blaine and pressed a small kiss to his lips. 'Promise me one thing though.'

Blaine nodded.

'When she has her first period, you are buying any and all sanitary equipment.'

And the dark haired man only smiled, pressing their lips together once again.

Lost in their kiss, neither noticed the tiny hand that snaked out to grab the bright packet of tampons from the shelf and place it back in the trolley behind her.


Okay, so their kids name is Charleston Freida Elizabeth Sofia Hummel-Anderson. Long name, I know, but it felt right to me in that I wanted to call her Charleston when I saw the name on a baby site and fell in love with it a little bit. And then I spotted Freida and a similar thing happened. But then I also wanted to include sentimentalityness, so her other middles names are Elizabeth, after what I take to be Kurt's mum, and Sofia after who I imagine is Blaine's mum. Because Darren (and Blaine by assosciation) has a Philipino mum, and I didn't want to use the same name (Darren's mum's name is Cerina) but I wanted something with that kind of feel so Sofia it became! :D And so that definitely made my day figuring that all out! :D

In short, I hope you enjoyed this little chapter! Please let me know what you think, good or bad! Constructive criticism is very very welcome! Charlie was so fun to write! Even though she is small and has few lines :P Plus, parenty!Kurt is also very fun! I totally imagine him as the serious parent and Blaine is the fun parent :P

I love you all!
