A/N: Yay I'm back! Here have a follow on from the mother's day chapter for codfishh. I know I said I was gonna change the names but it feels weird half way through a story :S Also karatekid1018, I wanna see about getting your prompt done for next Friday if that's cool :) On with the chapter
Disclaimer: I don't own glee. At all. Not even a tiny little bit.
Later that day when Blaine arrived home from work he went to join Kurt in the kitchen, Kurt pulled him aside so that he could tell him everything that had happened , they agreed that it was time to sit Elizabeth down after dinner and explain everything to her.
Two hours later Elizabeth was sat in the living room with Kurt and Blaine waiting to find out what they wanted to tell her
'Elizabeth, honey?' Kurt said, she looked up from where she had been playing with the hem of her skirt 'You're daddy and I wanted to talk to you about something that happened today at school' She looked confused whilst she tried to figure out what her dad was talking about so Kurt carried on 'Mrs Wilson told us today that you were working on mother's day cards?' He prompted, waiting for a response
'Yeah, but... I don't think, I don't think I have a mummy...' She trailed off thoughtfully as if the answer would be written on the wall for her.
'Honey, your daddy and I need to explain to you about your family' she looked up studying her Kurt's face, but remained silent 'you might have noticed that we're not like usual families' he started and she nodded her head, eyes wide. 'You don't have a mummy but you get two daddies instead, that doesn't mean you'll be loved any less than in a real family, it just means that this family isn't quite like your friends' families' Elizabeth nodded her head again 'people might give you a hard time because of it but you have to remember to always show them who's right and not fight back, right?'
'Okay, but what do I tell people when they ask about our family?' She asked, since many of her friends talked about their families and she was never quite sure of what to say.
'Just tell them that you have two parents and a brother that love you very much' Blaine took over when he saw Kurt falter slightly 'And if anyone ever gives you trouble about it you have to promise us you'll go straight to a teacher or come and find us, yeah?' She nodded again before yawning
'Looks like someone's ready for bed' Kurt said, taking her by the hand to get her ready, Blaine followed them but went into Cooper's bedroom to see how he was getting on with his homework. He laughed as he walked in and saw his son deep asleep lying on his half finished maths homework, his pen now on the other side of the desk from his hand and his reading glasses askew on his face.
'Hey buddy' Blaine said as he shook his shoulders a bit, Cooper looked around for a second to figure out his surroundings before focusing on Blaine 'Do you wanna try and finish that tonight or go to sleep and do it in the morning?' Cooper looked back at the offending homework and grimaced, he still had five questions to do and they looked particularly difficult.
'I should get them done tonight really...' He said, rubbing his forehead with frustration
'Why don't you let me help?' Blaine asked, he'd been helping Cooper with his homework ever since he'd been at middle school, apparently maths was a lot harder there than it was at Elementry School.
'Sure, I won't be able to do it' he huffed
'Don't say that, just give it a go, it might be easier now that you've some sleep' he smirked, Cooper just nodded, scratching the back of his head.
Half an hour later the homework was complete and Cooper was packing it into his bag for school the next day, he paused and turned to Blaine
'When you were talking to Lizzie after dinner,' he paused waiting for Blaine to nod his head 'What were you telling her about?'
'Do you remember when you were in kindergarten and we your dad and I had to talk to you about how our family is different to everyone else's?' Cooper nodded 'They were making mother's day cards today and we had to bring Lizzie home' Cooper cringed.
'How much does she actually know though? Does she know about gay people?' Cooper said, he didn't want to go bringing up something by accident that she didn't understand and make her upset.
'No, we didn't tell her about gay people, she's still too young to get that. She knows that her family is different to her friends' families and that she doesn't have a mum but she has two dads instead'
'Fair enough' Cooper replied shrugging his shoulders, Blaine was about to leave the room to let him get ready for bed but he was stopped 'Hey, dad?' Blaine turned around again 'What if she gets bullied, you know, by some stupid homophobic kid?' He said, it was clear he was trying to act as if he didn't care but it was obviously getting to him
'She'll be fine, we've always known she was a tough one' They both laughed a little 'but she knows to tell people if things get rough and she's got all of us looking out for her, if anything she'll end up being a better person for it. Either way, let's not get too worried, nothing's happened yet, touch wood' He said, Cooper nodded and went back to what he was doing and Blaine left to see Kurt's progress with Elizabeth, he could safely say he was exhausted.
A/N: I'm aware it's short but I didn't want to drag it out and make it boring, also I'm not one hundred percent clear on how American schools work but I've done my best so don't shoot me if I'm wrong. As always thanks for the support with reviews / favourites / follows they're awesome! Keep 'em coming! Have a good weekend
