Hi guys! I am so sorry for not updating yesterday! My brother needed the computer and I couldn't upload it using the ipad so I'm sorry about not updating! :D

The next one was prompted by Patricia Sage who suggested that Burt walking in on Blaine taking care of Kurt when he's walking and see how much he cares for him. I'm also combining Kina-san who suggested sleep driving.

I hope you all enjoy and sorry for any mistakes!


12: More than a crush

Burt Hummel knew he son was in love. The fact that he was smiling again – a real smile and not the fake one he had been using for years – and that he was no longer looking far too thin was a dead giveaway. He looked healthier and happier, a sight that warmed Burt's heart.

He remembered what it felt like to be 'in love' as a teenager but watching Kurt and Blaine was something else entirely. He could see that they loved each other like Burt had loved his first wife and how he loved Carol.

He wasn't aware of it until one night when Kurt was sleep walking again. He had been blissfully asleep when he had jolted awake to hear Blaine's frantic voice.

"Kurt!" he heard Blaine yelled and he heard the front door slam open. Blaine had been staying over during the summer holidays. The two had been practically inseparable, not that Burt minded. He would rather have the boys at their home instead of Blaine's where he was to understand that his parents were hardly ever home.

Burt grunted and swung himself out of bed, steadying himself for a moment. His blood ran cold though when he heard the car start and his eyes widened.

"No," Burt breathed, not daring to believe it. He heard the car rev and he bolted out of the room. He thundered down the stairs two at a time and saw that the front door was wide open. Burt ran outside, coming to a skidding halt on the veranda.

Blaine was already there at the car, the driver's door already open and the engine switched off. Burt stopped, watching. He could see that Kurt was behind the wheel and he gripped the front post tightly as he knees threatened to give out. Blaine pulled Kurt out of the driver's seat, pulling him out and slamming the door shut.

From his position, Burt could see that Blaine was deathly pale and he was shaking.

"Blaine?" Kurt whimpered as his boyfriend led him away from the car. They didn't make it far before both boys were collapsing on the front lawn. "Blaine what am I doing outside?"

There was unmistakable fear in his voice and Burt could only watch.

"You were sleeping walking," Blaine choked out. "You got in the car and you were going to drive."

"What?!" Kurt yelped, looking fearfully to the car and backed to Blaine, taking in his shaken appearance. Blaine pulled Kurt to his chest, hugging him fiercely.

"You scared the shit out me," Blaine choked out, pulling back so he could kiss every inch of Kurt's face.

"Oh god, oh god, oh god," Kurt choked out hysterically, clutching Blaine tightly. "I could have killed myself! Blaine!"

"I've got you," Blaine said, holding him tightly and Kurt began to sob, holding Blaine tightly, his whole body shaking. Blaine wasn't much better, shaking madly. "I won't let anything happen to you. Promise. I've got you. Love you so much."

Kurt continued to cry and Blaine dropped his head into Kurt's shoulder and tried to hold back his own tears but was failing. Burt swallowed thickly. He had never seen teenagers as close as Kurt and Blaine. Their relationship was more mature than Burt had ever seen and both were compassionate and caring to each other.

Burt finally got the use back in his legs and stumbled to the boys, crouching down beside them. They flinched when Burt gently began to rub their backs and they looked up. They looked so much younger and completely terrified.

"You're okay boys," Burt said gently and they buried their faces again, clutching each other tighter. "Come on, let's get you inside and warmed up."

Burt helped them up, wrapping his arms around their shoulders and led them back inside. Kurt and Blaine immediately went to the couch and Blaine pulled Kurt into him arms before sliding them down so that they were laying down. Kurt was the little spoon, tucked tightly against Blaine's chest.

"I love you," Blaine murmured and Burt could hear him murmuring other soothing things to Kurt as he shivered and hiccupped.

Burt went to the kitchen and began to warm up some milk for the two of them. He wasn't going to separate them again after tonight. Burt's hands shook slightly and his shook his head, his thoughts going down a dangerous road. Kurt was safe and Blaine had gotten to him in time.

Burt finished the milk and took it out to them. He placed it on the coffee table and just gazed at the two. He smiled softly and thought he didn't have to worry about Kurt to much because it was clear that Blaine would always be there for him.

"I'll get you some blankets," Burt said softly.

"Thank you Burt," Blaine choked out, his face stained with tears.

"You're welcome kid," Burt told him softly and quickly went to get some blankets for his two boys.
