Heyyy guys! How are you all on this fine day? :)
How about that Klaine duet for Perfect? It's just perfect, innit?
So here's some more Klaine goodness in Chapter 11!
I don't own Glee or Klaine.
"Kurt? Kurt... whatchoo doin'?" Blaine mumbled sleepily as he rolled over in bed, having been woken up by the sounds of his husband running around their bedroom at 6:30 in the morning. He slowly sat up, rubbing at his eyes before realizing that Kurt was tugging on a pair of super skinny pants before running back to the closet to find the perfect shirt.
When he heard Blaine he briefly glanced in that direction before pulling out a white button up to put on. "My boss just called and the dresses for tomorrow's show don't fit right and we need to tailor them to make sure they fit on the models. It will be a disaster if they don't fit correctly!" He grabbed a tie from the closet and quickly started to put it on.
"Okay." Blaine watched Kurt for a moment, absently rubbing his stomach before he realized something. "Oh! Well you'll still be able to make it to my appointment, right?" He had a doctor's appointment later-the one where they could find out the baby's gender-and he definitely wanted his husband to be there for this big moment.
"Of course! Of course, I would never miss it, honey." Kurt leaned in for a quick kiss to Blaine's lips. "I'll meet you at the doctor's at 1:30, okay? I can't wait." He dropped a hand down to Blaine's stomach for a brief moment before he pulled away and darted towards the door. "Love you, see you later!" With that, he was gone, desperately needing to get to work so he could fix the mess they had on their hands, and Blaine rolled over to get a few more hours of sleep.
He woke up again around 10:30 with the realization that he was starving, so he quickly moved into the kitchen and made himself a sandwich of peanut butter, cheese, and pickles. Blaine knew that under any other circumstances he would never put those items together but the baby was starting to make him have some crazy cravings.
After enjoying his sandwich and taking a shower, he decided to get dressed, settling for a pair of jeans and a black sweater that showed off his little baby bump nicely. Now that he and Kurt were telling people that they were expecting he wasn't afraid to flaunt it. He rather liked it, even, knowing that he was nice and round with his and Kurt's child. The child that they would be finding out the gender of today! The thought made him grin and he let out a happy sigh, thinking of how he just could not wait for this appointment to get here.
Luckily, the time for the appointment rolled around and Blaine was anxiously sitting in the waiting room of the doctor's office, wondering when his husband was going to arrive. Kurt had said that he would meet him here at 1:30 and he was already ten minutes late. 'Oh well. I'm sure he'll be here soon.' He thought with a small smile, blinking when he felt his phone vibrating in his pocket. Upon taking it out he saw it was Kurt, so he quickly answered. "Hi, honey!"
"Blaine, I can't talk for long. Some of our models got here late so the alterations are taking longer than we thought, so-"
"Wait, but you'll be here, right? I'm waiting for the doctor to call me back any minute, so-"
"Blaine..." Kurt interrupted with a strained tone. "I... honey, I don't think I'll be able to make it. Things around here are so crazy so I won't be able to get away. I'm so sorry, I want to be there so badly but I just-" The line suddenly went dead and Kurt blinked, realizing that Blaine had just hung up on him.
So that was why Blaine was currently sitting in the waiting room of his doctor's office, blinking rapidly as he tried to hold back the angry tears that threatened to spill over onto his cheeks. "Blaine Anderson-Hummel?" Blaine looked up to see a cheerful nurse standing nearby with a clipboard, smiling as she glanced around for the next patient.
Blaine slowly stood up, hastily wiping his tears away before he walked over to the nurse. She welcomed him happily and ushered him down a hallway where she measured his weight and how large his stomac was. "You're measuring right on point! Now if you'll just come right in here and sit down... The doctor will be in shortly and you can take a look at your baby!"
He mumbled a thank you to the nurse before she left and that's when he just let it out. He choked back a sob and buried his face into his hands, letting his anger out through his tears. How dare Kurt promise him that he would be here, then not show up? How dare he put work first? How dare he not be here for him, not be here for their baby? It seriously just pissed Blaine off and he wanted nothing more than to scream and yell and go tell Kurt how stupid he was, but he knew that he couldn't do that. He had to try to stay calm for the baby.
'Think about the baby. Stay calm for the baby. The baby... you're going to find out if it's a boy or girl in just a minute and you need to be calm.' He took a few steadying breaths and wiped his eyes, knowing that he didn't want the doctor to come in and see him all upset like this.
Thankfully when the doctor entered five minutes later, Blaine's eyes were dry and he was much more relaxed. "Hey there, Blaine! Good to see you again." Doctor Smith smiled as he shook Blaine's hand. "Are you excited to see your baby today?"
"Of course! Yeah, yeah, I'm so excited to see the baby. I get to find out the gender today, right?" Blaine asked as he laid back on the examination bed. Doctor Smith nodded as he moved closer, pushing Blaine's shirt up to expose his baby bump.
"Yes! As long as the baby is positioned correctly we should be able to see if you're having a boy or girl. So shall we get started?"
"Yes!" Blaine said excitedly, his anger towards Kurt pushed to the back burner for the moment. Right now he was focused on his baby. He smiled, watching as the doctor spread some cold gel-like substance on his belly and placed the ultrasound machine's probe to his stomach. He rolled the probe around for a moment and an image popped up onto the screen and Blaine grinned wider when he could see the outline of his baby.
"And there's your baby!" The doctor said happily as he looked up at the screen. He went through all of his normal procedures of listening to the heartbeat (which of course brought tears to Blaine's eyes) and checking to make sure that everything looked right before asking about the gender. "Well, are you ready?"
At Blaine's nod, Doctor Smith adjusted the probe to focus on something on the screen and he paused for a brief moment. "Well, congratulations, Mr. Anderson-Hummel. It looks like you're having a little..."
/-/-/-/-/
Kurt Anderson-Hummel felt like an idiot. A big, stupid, horrible idiot of a husband that deserved to be yelled at, screamed at, maybe even punched in the face for what he'd done. How could he have let Blaine go the doctor alone? After he had promised that he would be there for this big day-the day they found out their baby's gender! And he knew how excited Blaine has had been about this... and Kurt had to be an idiot and miss it. So now Blaine was probably furious with him and Kurt had missed one of the most important moments of his life.
"You've gotta make it up to him." He told himself as he walked to the elevator, feeling absolutely exhausted after a day of cutting, sewing, pinning, and running about dozens of models trying to make sure that their dresses fit correctly for the fashion show. Everything had worked out fine and the fashion crisis was taken care of, but Kurt now had a whole other problem that he needed to solve. 'Promise him a fancy dinner tomorrow night. Spoil him. Give him a massage. Apologize profusely.' Kurt told himself as he walked up to their apartment door, letting out a long breath before he walked in.
"Blaine? Blaine, I'm home." He called hesitantly as he journeyed further into the house, blinking when he saw his husband on the couch, tears rolling down his cheeks as he pressed both hands against his stomach. "Blaine?" Kurt dropped everything in his arms and rushed forward, immediately panicked by the scene in front of him. Oh god, what was wrong? What could it possibly be? "What is it? What's wrong? Is the baby okay? Blaine, what-?"
"You would know that if you'd actually been at the doctor's today."
For a moment Kurt stood there, sighing softly as he watched Blaine start down the hallway towards their bedroom. Well, it seemed that he was obviously still angry with him. "Blaine!" He went after his husband, knowing that he needed to fix this between them. "Blaine, honey, I'm so sorry that I wasn't there today but I just couldn't leave... It was an emergency at work and I had to be there..."
Blaine stopped in the bedroom doorway and sighed quietly, placing a hand on his stomach. "This was a really important day, Kurt. You promised that you would be there for me and our baby and you weren't. We needed you and you... you... your stupid work is more important that us!" He said before another round of tears started and he flung himself onto the bed.
Well. Crap. Kurt looked at his husband before hurrying after him and sitting down on the bed. "Blaine, no. Work isn't more important than you or our baby. It's just... If I want to be able to pursue this dream and be successful, I have to do what my boss tells me. And I'm doing that so we can have a good life for us and our baby, I promise you. Okay?" He paused for a moment and reached over to gently wipe Blaine's tears away, offering him a small smile. "You, my amazing husband, will always be the most important thing to me and I love you so much."
Blaine let out a shaky breath and nodded slightly, rubbing at his eyes for a brief moment. "I know that it's hard to just walk away from work in a situation like that... but it really hurt me that you weren't there. I really wanted you to be there."
"I know. And I'm so sorry that I wasn't... I kind of feel like an idiot for not trying harder to leave, but... well, I can't do anything about it now."
"Yeah. It's... it's okay. I know you couldn't really control the wardrobe crisis." Blaine said with a small sigh. "And I'm sorry for blowing this out of proportion and getting so mad. I should have just said okay and known that you couldn't help this, but my hormones are making me a bit crazy right now." He attempted a smile then and looked at Kurt, shifting now to wrap his arms around him.
Kurt let out a sigh of relief at this, thanking Gaga that Blaine wasn't mad at him anymore. "It's okay, sweetie. And I'll still make it up to you, too. I promise."
Nodding, Blaine wiggled down so he could rest his head on Kurt's chest to cuddle. "I expect you to." He chuckled lightly. "You should take me to a fancy restaurant tomorrow. And maybe baby shopping. She still needs a lot of things for her room, you know, and I want you to help me pick it out."
"Okay!" Kurt said happily as he began to envision his nursery design again. It was going to be perfect, he thought. They were going to pick out the perfect bedding set with matching curtains, then they could paint the walls if they wanted, and then...wait... "Did you say... she?"
She? As in... a girl? Their baby... girl?
"Yes, Kurt." Blaine chuckled, looking up at his husband's beautiful, shocked face. "We're having a little girl. A daughter."
Aww, they're having a baby girl. :) Picturing those two with a little girl just seems so right, don't you think?
And I know I had several requests for Blaine to have twins... but I decided to keep it at one baby. Is that okay with you guys?
Let me know in your amazing reviews. Thank you guys so much!
