Chapter 20: Smythes
A/N: So everyone tends to make the Smythes big snobs, and all work all the time. Not me. I wanted to make them real. So hope you enjoy my version.
When Kurt and Sebastian got to Sebastian's house, Kurt started to feel different. Before he could process any feelings of doubt, discomptfort, or anything else they hear a small girl's squealing.
"Sebby-Webby," a small girl chimed charging at Sebastian.
The girl was about 3'9", had long brown hair just past her chest, her hair was naturally curly but was straightened (Kurt could just tell these things...kind of like Sam's dye-job), she had sparkling green eyes that matched Sebastian's perfectly, she looked about six years old.
"And who is this?" Kurt asked Sebastian. Before he could answer the little girl jumped out his arms (where she had landed when she charged), and stood in front of Kurt.
"I'm Stacy, are you Kurt?" she asked politely.
"Yes, I am. It's nice to meet you Stacy." Kurt bent down and extended a hand to the girl. Instead of taking it she jumped at him, giving him a bone-crushing hug.
"Stacy, You might want to let Kurt go before you fracture something." Sebastian smiled at the girl.
"Sorry Sebby." she said pulling away. "I'm Sebastian's little princess!" Sebastian mouthed 'sister' behind her, "And if you really are Kurt?" Kurt nodded, " then you must be Sebby's boyfriend."
"Why yes I am, and you are adorable!"
"I know." she beamed at Kurt.
"She really is your sister." Kurt whispered as they walked towards the house.
When they got inside Stacy announced she was going to her room for a bit to think, not something most five year olds do, (Kurt had been off by a year).
I really like Kurt. He seems super nice, and he likes me too! Sebby really likes him, and I know because he never groans or is mad when he talks about him. I think Kurt really cares about Sebby. I want him to know that I like him, but telling him isn't enough. I know what to do though, I'll write him a letter.
Stacy got up and went over to her desk, even thought she was only five years old, she was a very good writer.
Dear Kurt- I think you are a very nice man. I like you a lot, and think that you should come back soon. I know that Sebby really likes you, and I think you really like Sebby. You are his third boyfriend, so that makes you very important. Want to know why? It makes you very important because three is my favourite number. Anyway I just wanted to give you this because I care a lot about my big brother. He used to be really sad when he would come home from school, my mommy and daddy would say that he had not found his prince yet. Now when he comes home he is all happy. He talks about you all the time, and he is always going to see you. I think you might be Sebby Prince. I know a lot about princes. Sebby reads me a bed time story every night. Princes are brave, strong, and handsome. I think you are the perfect Prince for Sebby. He's waited a long time, and I think he deserves one. I really hope you like our family, and I hope you want to come back soon. Mommy and Daddy have been waiting to meet you. So I really hope you are Sebby's Prince. -Stacy
I'll give Kurt the letter before I go to sleep, that way he can take it home with him.
Kurt and Sebastian were going to his Dad's study to say hi, and to get the awkward introductions over with. Sebastian knocked on the door.
"Sebastian?" he asked.
"Nope," Sebastian answered. "Sebastian...and Kurt." he beamed at his boyfriend.
"Oh come in, come in," Mr. Smythe said as Sebastian opened the door.
"Hi, I'm Patrick Smythe, although I would prefer Patrick over Mr." He smiled down at Kurt.
"Sure thing Patrick. I'm Kurt Hummel, my dad is congressman Burt Hummel." he announced, knowing that even though Sebastian's father was a lawyer (for the people, not a scummy one), he was still very interested in politics.
"Oh, your father is congressman Hummel? That makes sense, he's doing a lot for the gay community, and that I applaud." he said, smiling to his son.
"Yeah, he cares a lot about that topic, and I'm really proud to say he's my father." Kurt found talking to Patrick a lot easier then he thought it would be.
"And you should be, he's a great man. Well I have some paper work, why don't you two go hang out and I'll see you at dinner?"
"Sure Dad, bye!" Sebastian waved.
"Bye," Kurt said.
"See you soon boys." He waved back.
When they closed the door behind them Kurt turned to Sebastian.
"Was that what I think it was?" he asked.
"What?" Sebastian was confused.
"By 'see you soon' did he really mean 'dinner is soon, so don't even think about the bedroom'?" Kurt asked as they walked towards the kitchen.
"Oh, that? Yes, definitely. Don't worry though, he's always like that." Sebastian assured.
"Well, personally I like him," Kurt said taking Sebastian's hand.
"He likes you as well. Come on, time to meet the Mrs," he said, dragging Kurt to the kitchen.
When they got there Mrs. Smythe was sitting at the counter reading a magazine.
"Mom, shouldn't you be watching the food?" Sebastian asked making her jump.
"I just checked on it. Hello there, you must be Kurt," she said getting up and walking oer to shake hands, "I'm Olivia Smythe, how are you?" she asked.
"I'm good, thank you. And you?" he said smiling.
"Me? I'm tired. We usually order out, but I thought that because you were coming over, I'd try my hand at cooking." she grimaced. "Uh, Kurt if I give you food poisoning, I'd like to apologize before-hand." she said giving a short laugh.
"Noted," he said, mouth quirking up into a grin.
"Mom, is dinner almost done?" he asked.
"Awe, little 'Bastian's always been sooo impatient." she said squeezing his cheek.
"Knock it off," he huffed, swatting her hand away, "but is it almost done?" he repeated.
"Yes, why don't you and Kurt here, go get Stacy?" she suggested, as she started to take dishes out, Kurt caught the aroma of...homemade pizza?
When they got to Stacy's door instead of knocking at Patrick's Sebastian walked right in. Kurt expected Stacy to yell at him like any little sister, but instead,
"Sebby, and Kurtie!" she squealed happily. She hugged Sebastian then he turned around, his back to Stacy, and bent down. Kurt was confused as Stacy climbed up on her bed, and then jumped on Sebastian's back.
"Hold on Stace," he warned.
"GO!" she chimed, and Sebastian began to jog out the door. Kurt stood there in shock for a second, did Sebastian Smythe just give a five year old girl a piggy-back?
Kurt then, still a little stunned, followed them downstairs. Sure enough, there was homemade pizza on the dining table.
"Ah Kurt," Olivia started, "Sebastian mentioned that you're a vegetarian, so I made two pizzas. One for Patrick, Bastian, and me. One for you and Stacy." She smiled lovingly at her daughter.
"You a vegetarian?" Kurt asked Stacy.
"No," she answered easily.
"She doesn't like people to feel left out." Sebastian whispered in his ear.
"She reminds me of Brittany." Kurt whispered back, giggling.
As Patrick watched his son he realized something. Sebastian was happy, and it was Kurt who was making his baby boy happy. It had been a long time sense he had seen Sebastian truly happy. Kurt giggling, Sebastian staring at him when he thought no one was looking, Kurt talking to Stacy, and getting along with everyone. He absolutely adored Kurt. He could see Sebastian spending the rest of his life with Kurt.
"Patrick, Olivia?" Kurt addressed Sebastian's parents. "I know it's a lot to ask, but my sister has just come back in town. She doesn't approve of me, and I was wondering if I could possibly spend the week here?" he asked worriedly.
Even though Olivia didn't want to say no, she thought it might be too early, before she could act on her opinion her husband answered.
"Of course, Kurt." Patrick smiled. "Now there are three options for your sleeping arrangements," he started. "You can sleep on the couch, which I doubt you want, you can sleep in the guest room, or you and Sebastian can sleep in the guest." he put emphasis on 'sleep' making it clear he didn't want them having sex, Sebastian had told him how Kurt got serious before even thinking of sex. He trusted Kurt.
"Um, wow. Thank you Mr.- I mean Patrick." Kurt couldn't believe Sebastian's father would trust the two of them in a room together. "You are right though, I would prefer the guest room over the couch. The last option is Sebastian's choice though." he looked at Sebastian.
Before Sebastian could answer Stacy wanted to say something.
"Sebastian should stay with his Prince." she stated like it was obvious. Everyone looked at her, wondering what was going on. She reached in her pocket and pulled out her letter for Kurt. She handed it across the table.
As Kurt read the note he smiled, and understanding grew on his face. He turned back to Stacy while everyone else waited patiently to see what was going on.
"Can Sebastian see it?" he asked.
Stacy thought about it really hard, so hard a wrinkle formed on her forehead.
"Okay." She beamed yet again.
Kurt passed the letter to Sebastian. Sebastian read it and turned to his sister.
"I've told you I love you, right?" he asked. She nodded cheerily.
"So, have you guys made a decision?" Olivia asked.
"Roomies," Sebastian said.
"'Bas, you're hanging out with Nick and Jeff too much," Kurt said with fake concern.
"Oh shh," he said.
The Smythes finished dinner and Kurt went to go pick up his bags, Emma was out so there was no problems there. His father promised to think of something by the end of then week.
When he got back, he set his bags in the guest room. He went to go find Sebastian when he heard his voice coming from Stacy's room.
"...And then the Price said 'Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.' Rapunz-" Stacy cut him off.
"Sebby? Is Kurt your Prince?" she asked in the most adorable way.
"Maybe," he whispered, then got up out of his chair and kissed Stacy's forehead. "Night Stace." he started walking into the hall. Kurt pretended like he just walked out of the room.
"Hey, you ready for bed?" Kurt asked.
"Yeah, come on," Sebastian replied, taking Kurt's hand and leading him back to the guest room.
