Don't Ever Let Him Go
Kurt stared at the pills in disdain, wishing he didn't have to take them. But he did, swallowing them without further complaint. Kurt handed the plastic cup back to the nurse just as someone entered the room.
"Hey you,
Noah said, moving aside so the nurse could pass him.
"Well hello there my ever handsome finance," Kurt replied cheekily.
"I see someone is having a good day today," Noah said, sitting down next to the bed.
"I am actually," Kurt said, "I feel good today, and I just really enjoy calling you that." Noah laughed and kissed Kurt's hand.
"You still sure you want to wait a while before we get married?" Noah questioned.
"Do you want to get married sooner?" Kurt asked.
"I want whatever you want," Noah replied.
"Then yes," Kurt told him, "You know I most definitely, 100% want to marry you, which is why I said yes when you asked a few weeks ago. But like I said then, I want to wait at least a year or two before we actually get married. Neither of us has ever lived or experienced life outside of Lima, and I want us to that before we get married. I mean, I don't know what's going to happen in the future, especially since I'm stuck here, but I don't want to rush something just because we're worried about the future."
"Sounds good to me," Noah said, "So long as I'm with you, I don't mind what we do. So, you have chemo today?"
"Nope, I had my last round of treatment yesterday morning. They're going to be running some tests on me tomorrow morning to see what's going on and then determine the next course of action."
"Are you gonna need more chemo?" Noah asked.
"I don't know yet, I'll find out tomorrow," Kurt said, "Today I want to do something fun, and I don't mean the weight room."
"Alright," Noah laughed, "What did you have in mind?"
"Can we go to the beach?" Kurt asked excitedly.
"The beach?" Noah said, "You'd have to get signed out for the day."
"My dad talked to the doctor last night and told him you were allowed to sign me out for today. He even said that he, Carole, Finn, and Rachel would come too. Please Noah," Kurt begged, giving his boyfriend the eyes he knew he could not resist.
"But… is it safe? I mean, isn't there stuff there that could make you really sick?"
"The doctor said I should be fine," Kurt told him, "Come on Noah, please. Usually I wouldn't be crazy about the beach, but, I want to spend my one free day outside with my family."
"Fine," Noah sighed and Kurt squealed in excitement, "Get dressed while I sign you out for the day."
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Kurt said excitedly as Noah walked out of the room. Ten minutes later, the par of them were in Noah's truck, on their way to the nearest beach in Lima. It was pretty small, but usually un-crowded as most people went to the only other beach in Lima which was a lot bigger. Noah watched as Kurt slid out of the truck, planning to keep an eye on him the whole time they were out.
"Hi sweetheart," Carole said, "How are you?"
"I'm good," Kurt told her, "Good to be outside, away from the hospital."
"Well, it's good to see you out of the hospital," Burt said and Kurt smiled.
"How are you feeling?" Kurt asked as they walked on the sand, closer to the water.
"I'm good, we had another ultrasound before we came here," she said, handing Kurt a new picture.
'But, this looks like…" Kurt said, looking up at Carole and his dad.
"Twins," Burt nodded.
"Do you know what they are yet?" Kurt asked.
"Not yet," Carol said, "We find that out at our next appointment." Kurt nodded his head and sat down on the blanket Noah had set in the sand.
"Kurt, d'you want to come in the water?" Finn asked.
"But right now thanks Finn," he said, "I'll come in later, but for now I just want to sit here." Finn nodded and then pulled his girlfriend into the water. Noah sat down on one side of Kurt while Burt and Carole were on the other.
"Noah, if you want to go in the water then go ahead," Kurt said.
"No it's fine, I'll wait for you," Noah replied.
"Noah, go ahead," Kurt insisted, "I know you want to go, so go. I'm fine sitting here right now."
"Are you sure?" Noah questioned.
"Yes," Kurt laughed, "Go have fun."
"Love you," Noah said, kissing Kurt quickly and then going to join their friends in the water.
"Hey Kurt," Burt said.
"Yeah dad?" Kurtz asked.
"Don't ever let him go."
"Believe me dad," Kurt said, "I don't plan to." Kurt smiled at his dad who, in turn, put his arm around his son.
The family stayed at the beach for the next several hours, before Kurt eventually started to get tired.
"Come on bud," Burt said, "Let's get you back." They packed up and walked to the parking lot together. Before he climbed into the passenger seat of Noah's truck, he turned to look at his family.
"Thank you for today," he said, "I had an amazing time and I'm so glad I could spend it with all of you."
"We're glad you had a good day buddy," Burt told his son, "And we'll be right there with you tomorrow when you get your test results back."
"Thank you," Kurt said again, giving them all a watery smile and hugging each person. He climbed into the truck and Noah drove them back to the hospital. Twenty minutes later, Kurt found himself lying in a hospital bed, totally exhausted. He closed his eyes and fell asleep to the sound of Noah's voice reading him an article in Vogue.
When Kurt awoke the next morning he saw Noah asleep in a chair, the magazine still open on his lap. Kurt sat up slowly in the bed, the movement waking his sleeping boyfriend.
"Morning," Noah groaned, stretching. Kurt heard his aback crack several times and winced.
"You can't keep sleeping like that, you're going to end up with about a million back problems," he said.
"I think I can live with that so long as you're there to massage them better," Noah replied.
"Good morning Kurt," the daytime nurse said far too happily as she walked in, "And how are we feeling this morning?"
"Fine, thank you," Kurt replied, "Ready to get today over and done with." She nodded her head sympathetically.
"Well, since you're up, shall we get started? No pills this morning, your doctor wants your results accurate." Kurt nodded and agreed, wanting it over. The nurse ran through a series of tests with him, Noah sitting out of the way, but always a constant presence.
"Alright Kurt, we're done ere," she said, "I'm going to take these down to the lab and we'll have your results later today. Thank happy thoughts,' she said, walking out of the room.
"Alright, I'm thinking happy thoughts," Kurt said, watching her leave, "I'm thinking about you not being the nurse to come back later today." Noah laughed as he walked over to stand next to the bed again.
"Babe, calm down," he said.
"I can't Noah, I'm freaking out!" Kurt admitted, "What if the results are really bad?"
"I'm sure everything will be fine," Noah assured him, "And if it's not then we'll deal with it." Kurt and Noah talked in Kurt's room for a while, and eventually Burt, Carole, and Finn showed up.
"Have you heard anything yet?" Carole asked.
"Not yet," Noah told her, "Soon hopefully." At that moment, the doctor walked into the room.
"We had your test results back," the doctor said, looking around at Kurt and his family.
"Kurt, you're in remission."
