Sam, age 4
"Hey, Blaine."
"Yeah, Kurt?"
"Have you ever thought that maybe we should get Sam a little brother or sister?"
"I've thought about it."
"Well, that's perfect, because I have too. I think we should get adopt a boy this time, or we could have another girl, I'm really open to both. Sam's just getting so big, and I miss the pitter-patter of baby feet running through our apartment!" Kurt said, all in one breath. Miraculously, Blaine understood every word.
"That's not what I meant."
"Oh."
"I mean, I don't think it's a good idea. I think you're forgetting how hard it was when Sam was a baby. How many sleepless nights there were, and all that. Kurt, you're going back to Broadway in a month. I can't do this by myself. Besides, Sammy's so happy. I don't think she wants another baby, and quite frankly, neither do I. Sorry, babe."
"Are you honestly telling me that you don't miss having a baby?"
"No, Kurt." Blaine responded, trying not to get angry. "I miss having a baby, but we can't have another child just because you don't want Sam to grow up."
"That's not why I want to have another child! Well, it kind of is, but we don't want Sam to become another Rachel Berry!"
"Babe, Rachel is one of your best friends, and she's one of Sam's favorite people"
"I know, but I have a theory that people who are only children are socially maladjusted for the first few years after they start school." Kurt continued. "There are examples everywhere! Look at Hermione from Harry Potter."
"So, you're getting your parenting ideas from Harry Potter now? As much as I love the franchise, I hardly think that's appropriate." Blaine reasoned. "I'd also like to point out that Rachel and Hermione both ended up as smart, strong women with solid careers, a loving husband, and sweet children."
"Well, after a rough start!" Kurt interjected.
"Kurt, don't make me point out the obvious."
"What?"
"Until Finn became your step brother, you were an only child."
"But… But… But…it's different!"
"How?"
"I don't know, it just is!"
"I really don't think having another child is a good idea. Sam is happy and well adjusted. She has a lot of friends. She's going to be fine."
"What if she's not? What if she starts school and everyone thinks she's weird and her and the few friends she has get picked on constantly, until she has to transfer schools? What if she ends up exactly like me?" Kurt began to cry.
"If Sammy ends up exactly like you, that would be amazing. You're strong, funny, smart, talented, and you have a successful career."
Kurt sighed. "I guess Sam should remain an only child."
"Finally, you see logic. Plus, Kurt?"
"Yeah?"
"If Sam ends up exactly like you, then she'll marry a guy exactly like me, and I'm pretty damn amazing."
