Ok, I know I said I would do another update yesterday and I apologize. I just couldn't come up with any ideas until now. So I hope you like this chapter. I am from now on only going to post when I can which means when I get ideas that won't stop swirling in my head. I need to get my mojo back. LOL. Ok, enough rambling. Enjoy. And leave a review. Thanks. Btw this is longer then the last chapter. I am happy about that and I hope you are too.
The week went by slowly for Elizabeth. With everyday, she would think about whether or not to go to Jillian's house for dinner. There were so many things she thought Jillian might ask or do. So, Friday night, after she put Klaine to bed, Elizabeth went downstairs to find Lily and her dads sitting on the couch watching a movie. She sat down on the recliner and looked at them, waiting to tell them what was going on in her head.
"Did you want something honey?" Kurt asked.
Elizabeth nodded. "Can I talk to you about something?" she asked.
"Sure, let's go in the kitchen, Lily you finish watching the movie." Blaine insisted and Lily just nodded, to involved with what was going on in the movie to pay attention to what was going on around her.
Kurt, Blaine, and Elizabeth sat down at the kitchen table.
"So, what's going on?" Kurt asked.
"Well, I was thinking about the text that Jillian sent me the other day. She invited all of us over for dinner. She wants to see Klaine and get to know him. She also apologized for what she tried to do. I think this dinner is just her way of trying to really apologize." Elizabeth explained.
Kurt and Blaine both took in deep breaths and Blaine spoke first. "Honey, if this is what you want to do, then we'll support you no matter what. If you want Jillian in Klaine's life, she's going to be a part of yours too. But if you don't then that's ok too." Blaine admitted.
Elizabeth nodded. "I know, but without Matt here, Jillian is the only other person that Klaine has for that side of his family."
Blaine placed his hand on top of Elizabeth's. "I know and like I said, it's entirely up to you."
"I thought Matt had a brother?" Kurt asked.
"He does, but he's not the best person in the world and I don't want Klaine anywhere near him. I think he's a bad influence." Elizabeth admitted.
Both Kurt and Blaine nodded.
"Before I let Jillian know my answer, I want to let you know, that if we do go over there, if she's starts saying anything about me not being faithful, we're leaving and she is not to come near me or Klaine." Elizabeth declared.
"Whatever you want." Kurt stated.
"Then I'll just go and text her telling her that we'll be there tomorrow." Elizabeth finished, and went upstairs, while Kurt and Blaine went back to finish watching the movie with Lily.
Elizabeth went in her room and grabbed her cell phone from the charger, and started typing a message.
Jillian,
Thank you for inviting us over for dinner. I am sorry it has taken me a while to get back to you, but I wanted to let you know that it will not only be me and my son, but my dads and my younger sister, Lily too. I hope you don't mind. See you tomorrow.
Elizabeth
She sent the message and before she could do anything, a message cam through, but it wasn't from Jillian. It was from her best friend, Carly.
Hey girlie girl,
Sorry I haven't seen you in a while. Busy studying for exams before break, you know? Anyways, I heard you had the baby, but I didn't know if you had a boy or a girl. Maybe after the holidays we can meet for lunch or something and I can meet your baby. Btw Josh says hi and congrats. Ok, ttyl.
Carly
Elizabeth smiled as she read the message. She was glad Carly and Josh were still around for her. She started to get ready for bed when her phone went off, letting her know she had another text. This time it was from Jillian.
Elizabeth,
I am so happy you have decided to come for dinner. I can't wait to meet your sister and my grandson. Please come by at 7:00. See you then.
Jillian
Elizabeth read the message and set her phone down. She went into the bathroom to brush her teeth. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed. "You're not the same person you were when you went over there. You're stronger." Lizzie said to herself. She then brushed her teeth and went back into her room and went to bed.
The next morning, Lizzie was awaken, by loud cries, coming from the baby monitor. She got up quickly and went into the nursery. She found that Klaine had had a very messy diaper, and it was all over him and the crib mattress.
"Oh no! Looks like you're gonna need a bath little man." Elizabeth admitted. She carefully picked Klaine out of his crib and walked him into the bathroom.
"What smells?" Lily asked, as she came to the bathroom.
"Klaine woke up with a filthy diaper." Elizabeth replied, as she started to undress Klaine. "Can you get dad or papa for me please?" she asked her sister. Lily did as she was told, leaving Elizabeth to clean up a crying, dirty baby.
"You need something Liz?" Kurt asked, as he and Blaine came into the bathroom.
"Yeah. Klaine woke up with a filthy diaper. It was all over him and the crib mattress. I'm almost finished cleaning him, but I have to feed him. Can you please take the sheets off of the mattress and put a clean set on for me?" she asked politely.
"Sure, Liz." Blaine replied, and he and Kurt went into the nursery and changed the crib sheets.
Elizabeth was downstairs, sitting on the couch, feeding Klaine, when her dads came downstairs. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. I texted Jillian to tell her we are coming over for dinner and she said be there at 7:00."
"Ok. Thanks for letting us know." Kurt smiled.
That evening, they all got ready for dinner. It took Elizabeth a little while longer, because she also had to get Klaine ready. She was in the nursery, changing Klaine into a nice onesie when Blaine came in.
"Are you ready to go?" he asked.
She looked at Blaine and slightly smiled. "I guess." she sighed.
Blaine walked up to her and put a hand her shoulder. "You know, you don't have to do this." he repeated.
"I know. I know. But something inside of me is telling me that I have to. Maybe by doing this we'll both get the closer we need." Elizabeth declared.
Blaine nodded and kissed her cheek. "Come on. Let's get going." he said, as he picked up Klaine. "Let's go meet your grandma." he cooed, and Elizabeth couldn't help but smile.
They all arrived at Jillian's house a few minutes after 7:00. Elizabeth lifted Klaine's carrier out of the car and followed her family up to the door. Lily rang the doorbell, and Jillian opened the door.
"Hello!" she greeted. "It's so nice to see you again."
"It's nice to see you too Jillian." replied Blaine. "I don't think you've meet our youngest daughter yet. This is Lily."
Jillian bent down to greet her. "Hello Lily, I'm Jillian."
"Hi." Lily said softly.
"Well, why don't you all come in. It's too cold to be standing out there." Jillian insisted, ushering them into the house, closing the door behind them. They went into the living room and Elizabeth place the carrier down on the floor.
"Now, who's this little one?" Jillian beamed, over the baby in the carrier.
"This is my son." Elizabeth started. "His name's Klaine Dalton Hummel-Anderson."
"Oh, what a wonderful name. He's so beautiful." Jillian said, gushing over the baby.
"How old is he?" Jillian questioned.
"He's two and half weeks." Elizabeth replied.
"Is sleeping and eating alright for you?" Jillian asked.
Elizabeth nodded. She knew the questions would keep coming as long as they were there. "Yes he eats and sleeps fine. He just wakes up every few hours because he's hungry again. And this morning he made a big mess in his crib." she admitted, and looked down at her son. "Didn't you? You made such a mess and you didn't like it when I was giving you a bath now huh?" she cooed.
Jillian smiled at Elizabeth and Klaine. "Well, dinner's ready. So how about we all sit down." Jillian announced.
Elizabeth picked up the carrier and placed it by her chair, so Klaine would be close, just incase.
"So, Elizabeth, when are you going back to school?" Jillian asked.
"I'm going back at the beginning of February." Lizzie replied. "It's going to be so hard, leaving Klaine for the first time." she said, looking down sadly at her son.
"Do you know what you're going to do with him once you go back to school?" Jillian asked.
"Actually, there's a day care in the school, so he'll be able to come to school with me and since he's not on formula yet, I'll be able to feed him in between classes." Elizabeth added.
"That's great." Jillian stated. "I just thought you should know, that I would love to watch him, whenever you need me to."
Elizabeth looked up from her plate. She didn't know what to say. "Thank you Jillian. But I-" she was cut off by Klaine, starting to cry. "Oh, I think he's hungry."
"Oh, you can go in Matt's old room and feed him if you want. Give you some privacy." Jillian insisted.
Elizabeth thought for a minute. Matt's room was where he started to hurt her. There were too many bad memories in that room. She shook her head. "Actually, I'll feed him in the living room. I have a blanket to cover up with." she replied, and got up from the table, picking the carrier up and going into the living room. Elizabeth, picked Klaine out of the carrier, and started to feed him.
A few minutes later, she had closed her eyes. She could still hear a little bit of the conversation going on in the other room. She didn't notice that Jillian had sat down next to her, until she felt a hand on her shoulder. Elizabeth opened her eyes slowly, and saw Jillian sitting there. "Hi." she whispered.
"How are you doing?" Jillian replied, softly.
"I'm ok. He just likes to take his time while he's eating. I think he think's he's afraid he's going to run out of food." she laughed.
Jillian smiled. "Every-time I would feed Matt, he would always get this look on his face as if he was saying 'that's it?'"
Elizabeth looked at Jillian. "I'm really sorry that you lost him Jillian. But I'm more sorry that Klaine doesn't have a father figure to look up to." she said softly.
Jillian looked down in her lap. "I'm so sorry that Matt hurt you. I wish you would've told me that night when it happened."
"I was scared. I didn't realize what had just happened. I just needed to get as far away from him as I could." Elizabeth admitted, with tears in her eyes.
"Oh, Elizabeth, don't cry." Jillian said, placing a comforting hand on Elizabeth's shoulder.
Blaine and Kurt watched what was happening from the dinning room. They couldn't believe their eyes.
Elizabeth then could start to feel Klaine moving under the blanket. She lifted him up and placed him on her shoulder to burp him. It took a little longer then usual to get a burp out of him, and Jillian could see Elizabeth was getting frustrated.
"Do you mind if I try?" Jillian asked, politely.
Elizabeth hesitated for a moment before answering. "Um...I don't know. He doesn't know you, and the only people who can really get a burp out of him is me or my dads. My sister's even tried, but she hasn't had any luck yet." she admitted.
Jillian nodded. "It's ok. I understand."
Elizabeth's heart broke a little. She then looked up and saw her dads were standing there. She sighed and then handed Klaine over to Jillian. "Here, you can give it a try." Elizabeth insisted and handed her the burp cloth. "Here. You'll need this. He tend to spit up after he burps."
"Thank you Elizabeth." Jillian smiled, and started to burp Klaine. Elizabeth got up from the couch. "I have to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back." she announced.
Jillian nodded and Elizabeth went to the bathroom. While she was in the bathroom, Kurt, Blaine, and Lily came and sat down with Jillian.
"He's a big boy isn't he?" Jillian teased, still trying to get a burp out of him.
"He was only a little over 8 lb. when he was born." Blaine revealed.
Jillian looked at the baby on her shoulder and couldn't help but smile.
A few minutes later, Elizabeth walked back in the room. "So, did he burp for you?" she asked Jillian.
"He sure did. And he spit up all over the burp cloth." Jillian laughed.
"That's what he does." Elizabeth admitted.
Jillian was holding Klaine and he gave a big yawn.
"Oh, someone's tired." Elizabeth cooed.
Kurt looked at his watch. "It's getting late. I think we should be heading out."
Jillian nodded and handed Klaine over to Elizabeth. "Thank you for coming for dinner. And thank you for letting me get to know my grandson." Jillian announced.
Elizabeth placed Klaine in his carrier and he started to cry. "Oh it's ok. We're leaving." she cooed, but his cries just got louder and louder.
"Thanks for having us Jillian." Blaine replied, and they all followed him out to the car.
Jillian stood by the door and waved as they left.
Don't forget to leave me an awesome review! Thanks!
