A/N: Sorry it took so long, I apologize. I've had the internet for a few days but I've been feeling so overwhelmed with everything that I couldn't think straight. Finally, I managed to finish this chapter. Thank you for your patience and good luck wishes, means a lot :)

Kurt was wiping his eyes as he finished reading the letters. He swallowed. "C - Cody .. what is this?"

Cody smiled through his tears. "London and I wanted to do something special for Zack and Mom and the others. So we both wrote them each a letter. But then Mom came to me in a dream and told me that they had done something to the letters. So this was it. They wrote back!"

Kurt stared at Cody. "Your mom came to you in a dream?"

Cody nodded vigorously. "Yes! One time it was just Zack, one time it was Mom and Zack, and last night it was just Mom."

Kurt rubbed his temples. "And you and London didn't write the replies?"

London spoke up. "No, Mr. Martin. See the different writing?"

Kurt stared and recognized his ex-wife's neat handwriting and his son's messy scrawls in shock. He swallowed hard. He knew, then, that something was going on. Something that defied the laws of science and all that was normal.

Kurt smiled at Cody. "You know, Codes, I always spoiled you boys when you were with me."

Cody looked at his father. "Yes, you did," he agreed, not quite understanding what his father meant.

"So I think it's time I gave my boys what they wanted yet again," he said. His voice trembled slightly; he was still in shock from losing one of his precious sons. "We can stay in Boston, Cody. If that's what you want. We'll buy a house near here, and we'll settle down, and everything will be okay."

Cody beamed at his father. "Oh, Dad!" he cried, tears of relief and happiness gleaming in his eyes. "You really mean it? What about your rockstar days?"

"They're over," Kurt said in a determined voice.

Suddenly, Cody felt very bad for his father. "Are you sure, Dad?"

Kurt held up his hand to stop his son from continuing. "Don't worry, Cody. After what ... what happened, I realize that I can't waste any more of my time that I have with you. I don't want to take anyone for granted anymore. My biggest regret is that I didn't realize this before Zack died. But now I do. And I'm not going to keep making the same mistake. I'm going to be there for you, Cody, there for you like your mom and Zack were. I'll be the father you've always wanted."

Tears rushed to Cody's eyes and he ran to his father and threw his arms around him. London backed away respectfully, to give the father and son their space.

Cody and Kurt hugged, both crying over the deaths of so many innocent people. Then Kurt drew back from Cody and smiled at him. "I've got a terrific idea, Codes. I'm not promising that it will happen, but I'm sure going to try. I think it will make you very happy. It's a surprise for you. I hope to have it done by the time you're ready to leave the hospital for good."

"Tell me, Dad!" pleaded Cody. "Please, please, please?!?!"

Kurt laughed and ruffled Cody's hair. "No way. It wouldn't be much of a surprise if I did that, would it? Now, I'm going to take you back to the hospital. London can stay with you, while I go to work on this project. You're going to absolutely love it!"

So the three went back to the hospital, and then Kurt left to get to work on whatever it was that he was going to do. Cody was feeling better than he had in weeks. London stayed with him until visiting hours were nearly over, and she had to leave. She kissed him on the cheek as farewell, and as usual, he felt himself blushing under her lips. He couldn't deny it any longer. He was falling for London Tipton.

However, he had no time to ponder this thought, for as soon as she left, his father entered. "Sorry I was away all day, Son. But plans are going full steam ahead, now! I can't wait until it's finished! Well, I have to leave now, Cody. Just stopped in to tell you the good news! I'll see you tomorrow. Good night!" He patted Cody on the hand and was gone.

Cody waved goodbye to his father and thought about what the surprise could possibly be, and how it would impact his life.

A/N: Sorry, this is a crummy ending of a chapter, I know. I just wasn't quite sure how to end it...
