Here we go for another chapter! Will have some from Cooper's point of view this time (: Hope you guys like!
COOPER
Cooper couldn't believe what was going on. He knew that his dads had invited Goldie and Shania over, but he thought it was just for a friendly little family gathering. He hadn't expected to hear that he was going to be a big brother again. He was trying to put all of this into perspective when he saw Blaine jump up and knock himself out. He was trying his hardest not to laugh at this, but couldn't help it once he saw that Blaine was okay.
He walked over to where Blaine was just now beginning to open his eyes. Cooper let the laughs come out now, not sure what was funnier: the fact that his dads were having two more babies, or the fact that Blaine had knocked himself out over it. He stopped laughing when Bryan slapped him on the back of the head.
"It's not funny," Bryan told his eldest son. "He could have really hurt himself."
David was already examining his son. Being a doctor, he was very protective of everything his children did. He was examining his eyes and determined that he was fine for now.
"I want you to go lie down on the couch, Blaine," David said, helping him up. "And no arguing," he said, as Blaine started to open his mouth. "You can't sleep, though. You might have a concussion. I'll come check on you later, okay?"
Cooper stopped laughing as his dads carried Blaine out to the couch and took his seat at the table again. He watched Kurt and nodded, telling him he could go join Blaine out there. Kurt didn't take telling twice. He left the kitchen and went to join Blaine in the living room as David and Bryan came back into the kitchen.
"Okay, now," Cooper started, glad that Blaine and Kurt weren't in there, "Are you two really thinking about having more kids? Do you think you can handle twins?"
"Why are you so upset?" David asked, worried that maybe him and Bryan had made the wrong choice by not talking to their sons about it first.
"I'm not upset, I just want to make sure you two are making the best decision for you. I'm not here anymore and Blaine's going to be going to college next year…" Cooper stopped as he thought about what he just said. "That's what this is all about isn't it? You two can't stand to think that your babies are both going to be gone."
"Well, yes and no," Bryan admitted, taking David's hand in his own. "We are going to be sad that both of our sons will be gone, but we really did want a big family. We know what we are doing son. Don't worry about us."
"Whatever you say, dads. Whatever you say."
"Well, this was lovely. I think we should get going though," Goldie said. "Sorry this didn't go the way we hoped. Hopefully we can get together more often now that I'll be in town for a while."
"Yeah, I like your house and my brothers," Shania said, smiling and looking up at Bryan and David. "Thanks for having us."
"Let's go," Jane said, leading the way out to the living room and out the door.
KURT
Kurt had been extremely worried when he saw Blaine knock himself out. It was reassuring to know that David was a doctor and knew what he was doing. He sat on the couch with Blaine, stroking his hair that wasn't gelled up at the moment. It was nice to run his hands through Blaine's curly hair. It felt really good.
"Are you feeling better, babe?" Kurt asked, looking down at Blaine.
"Yeah, but my head hurts. I'm gonna ask my dad if I can have some medicine. I don't know what I can take if I have a concussion."
"Tylenol," Kurt answered almost immediately. "Ibuprofen is a blood thinner and that could make the bruise start bleeding. Definitely take Tylenol. Do you want me to go get you some?"
"Let's wait till everyone leaves."
As the words left Blaine's mouth, Jane walked out the front door. Goldie and Shania stopped by the couch to say goodbye to Blaine and Kurt, who shook their hands. Blaine gave Shania a hug from the couch, and she planted a kiss on Kurt's cheek.
"I like you," she whispered. "You make Blaine happy."
"Thanks," Kurt whispered back, smiling at her. "Maybe we can all hang out sometime."
"Yay!" Shania said, walking out the door with her mom. She had always wanted to do something fun with Blaine, and now she was going to get to.
"That was nice of you," Blaine said.
"What can I say? I guess I'm just a nice guy. Now, how about some Tylenol?"
Blaine smiled as Kurt walked into the kitchen and got two extra strength Tylenols and a glass of water. Blaine knew Kurt was the best person in the world for him, and he wouldn't have it any other way.
BLAINE
As Blaine thought about Kurt, an idea popped into his mind. His brother was here, anyway, so why not do it now? He had already given Kurt a promise ring he had made, and he had picked out another ring, too. He had been waiting for the perfect time to give it to him, though. After their fight, he thought about returning it, though, because he wasn't sure when he would get to use it.
He had kept it in his pocket at all times, because he never knew when the perfect moment would come up. When Kurt came back into the room, followed by his dads and Cooper, he knew it was the perfect time. He let Kurt help him with the medicine, all the while hiding the box up his shirt sleeve.
"Here you go. Swallow," Kurt ordered. Blaine did as he was told, taking the medicine down in one gulp.
"Thanks hon," Blaine said smiling. He puckered up his lips and Kurt kissed him. He heard snickering and knew it must be from Cooper. "Ah shut it Coop. You're just jealous." He stuck his tongue out at his brother as he threw a couch cushion at him.
"Okay, that's enough," Bryan said. "That's an expensive couch! Let's be nice." This caused everyone else in the room to burst out laughing; well, except Kurt. He understood how well you needed to take care of things like this.
"Kurt, can you help me up, please?" Blaine said, deciding it was now or never.
"Sure, what for?" Kurt replied.
"Just trust me."
Kurt shrugged and helped Blaine into a sitting position. When Blaine was able to get comfortable, he started talking and playing with his shirt sleeve.
"Kurt, there's something I need to say, and I need for you, and everyone else in here," he looked at everyone, "to let me say it and not interrupt me until I'm done. Okay?" Everyone nodded. "Great. Umm…"
It took Blaine a while to figure out what he was going to say. He didn't know how best to state it.
"Well, Kurt, you know you are the most amazing person in the world for me. I know I messed up when I cheated on you, and I feel horrible about it. However, you were able to forgive me and take me back, which I will be forever grateful for. You have changed me, Kurt, and I will never be able to pay you back for everything you have given me. I couldn't imagine spending my life with anyone other than you, and, well, do you care if I sing to you?"
Kurt had tears in his eyes by now, so he shook his head no, that he didn't mind. Blaine grabbed his guitar from behind the couch and began to play a familiar tune. Kurt knew it from the first few notes, and burst into even more tears as he knew what was going on now.
It's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes, or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby I think I wanna marry you.
Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go-o-oh
No one will know-oh-oh
Come on, girl
Who cares if we're trashed, got a pocket full of cash
We can blow-oh-oh
Shots of patron, and it's on girl
Don't say no, no, no, no, no
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And we'll go, go, go, go, go
If you're ready, like I'm ready
Cause it's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes, or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby I think I wanna marry you.
As Blaine finished his song, he put the guitar down and grabbed the box out of his sleeve. He got down on one knee and opened the box, revealing a gold ring with a diamond in the middle. It wasn't huge, but it wasn't very small, either. He had tears in his own eyes now, and the next words were almost unintelligible because the tears were coming faster now.
"Kurt Elizabeth Hummel, will you do me the extreme honor of marrying me and making me the happiest man alive?"
Those were the last words Kurt heard before he saw spots in front of his eyes and he blacked out.
