And because I already made you wait so long for the last update (and I love/hate cliffhangers), here's part two of Rachel's news!

"I'm pregnant."

Time seemed to stop at Rachel's words. Rachel is pregnant. Pregnant. With a baby. Kurt's baby. There is a tiny human growing inside of Rachel that he helped create. Kurt was having a hard time breathing at the moment.

"Kurt?" Rachel was worried. Her husband seemed frozen, eyes glazed over. She waved her hand in front of his face. "Kurt? Sweetheart?"

"Pregnant?" Kurt finally choked out. Rachel began to feel nervous. Sure, they had discussed children before, but it always seemed so far into the future; or planned out at the very least. She was supposed to be doing eight shows a week and Kurt was working long hours at Vogue. How was a baby going to impact their schedules?

She thought about Kurt's reaction to the news. What if he didn't want the baby? Rachel's heart hurt at the thought. Despite how unplanned this pregnancy may be, she loved this baby already and was willing to do anything for it.

But before she knew what was happening, Kurt's lips were on hers and his hands were framing her face gently, as if he was frightened she would break. She could taste the salt from their combined tears in the kisses they shared. Kurt broke the kiss and placed a hand on her stomach.

"You're pregnant. We're having a baby! Oh God, Rachel. We're having a baby."

Rachel giggled as her usually well-spoken husband lost his ability to say anything else. "I know it isn't the best timing or anything, but… you're okay with this?"

Kurt pried his eyes away from Rachel's abdomen to gaze into her eyes as he answered her question.

"I am 100% okay with this. I'm ecstatic, really. There is a tiny life inside of you that we created. Us!"

Rachel was still skeptical. "You aren't scared?"

"Oh, I'm terrified. But I want this. I want this so much. I will do anything and everything I can to make you and our baby happy. We are going to be a family, Rachel." Kurt replied, rubbing her stomach once more.

Rachel started crying again. Stupid hormones.

"I love you, Kurt."

"I love you too." He kissed her firmly on the lips, guiding her on her back. He lifted her shirt and began pressing kisses to her tummy. "And I love you, Baby."

They fell asleep that night with Kurt holding Rachel protectively in his embrace. One hand was placed over their baby as they dreamed of their future family.
