A/N: Sorry it has been so long since my last update. January is always hectic at work, but hopefully that will get back to normal soon. Also warning, this chapter is a bit angsty. Sorry ahead of time.

Chapter 18 Trouble

oOoOo

The Hummel's threw Ali a birthday party… Blaine and Kurt walked into the dining room and found the room decorated with pink balloons and streamers, and a birthday cake sitting on the table. On the side table were presents wrapped in frozen, paw patrol, and buzz Lightyear wrapping paper.

"We know yesterday was Ali's actual birthday, but we wanted to do a little something for her anyway." Carol said walking in holding Ali followed by Burt holding Max and Alex.

"Carol that was nice, but you didn't have to put yourself through so much trouble" Blaine said turning around looking at her a look of shock on his face. He wasn't expecting this at all.

"Nonsense son, we couldn't let our granddaughter's birthday go by without celebrating her special day" Burt said noticing the look on Blaine's face "We didn't get to do this for little Max this year because of everything that was going on then, but at least we can celebrate Ali's first birthday as part of our family."

"Thank you so much, you have no idea what this means" Blaine said feeling so blessed that this family accepted him and Ali as one of them. Thinking back now to how nervous he had felt to meet them the first time, almost makes him laugh.

Carol walked up to him pulling him into a hug "Thank yous are not necessary, this is what we do for our babies. Now let's go eat cake"

"It's about time" Finn said with a big grin on his face making everyone in the room laugh.

The three kids were put in booster seats, and a piece of cake was sat down in front of each of them. By the time the cake and ice cream had been eaten it was hard to say which child had more on their faces, or in their hair. There would definitely be a bath before the pictures were taken, Blaine thought with a smile snapping a few pictures of the kids covered in ice cream and frosting.

He felt so comfortable in this home, with this family. He felt like he was really part of it. He had known Travis's family for over five years and it had never felt like this.

They cleaned the kids up a little so they wouldn't get cake all over the house before they could be given a bath and then Carol walked over and grabbed a present for each child. Blaine smiled, this was exactly what his mom and everyone else had done. He felt a little guilty that they didn't have anything for Alex. He would know what to expect next year, he thought with a smile.

When the presents where all unwrapped, Blaine asked Carol what kind of pictures she wanted. Was there a specific pose she wanted him to have the kids do.

"No, I love all the ones I have seen that you have taken of Ali and Max so just do anything and I know I will love it." Carol said with a smile.

"Ok, well I think I can recreate the one of Ali and Max you liked and add Alex and we will just go from there" Blaine responded already thinking of the different pictures he wanted to take getting more excited by the minute. He had almost forgotten just how much he loved to take pictures.

"Blaine I would love that" She responded

They discussed the pictures for a few more minutes and then she and Burt picked up the kids and carried them upstairs to give them a bath while Kurt and Rachel started cleaning the cake mess up talking away. Blaine stood back watching them together, loving the look of happiness on Kurt's face. He could tell just how close they were.

He knew that they talked on the phone several times a week, but seeing them together really brought out how close they were. After some of the stories Blaine had heard about how Kurt had been treated in High School, he was glad that at least he had made some good friends in the process, he hoped to one day meet them all, and have Kurt meet his.

Blaine walked into the living room where he had put his camera and things he had thought he would need for the pictures. He had placed them in there trying to keep them away from inquisitive three year olds. It was really hard for Blaine to think of his baby as being three. Where has the time gone, he thought shaking his head.

He had just pulled the camera out of the bag making sure he had put the new memory card and batteries in it when he heard a knock on the door. Looking up, he saw a smile spread across Finn's face, Blaine laughed softly wondering what he was up to, and then went back to checking his camera equipment, shaking his head. He really liked Kurt's brother.

"I'll get it" Finn said almost bouncing his way down the hall to the front door, and then him and the visitor headed back toward the kitchen.

Blaine walked back into the room just in time to see a big man pull Kurt into his arms and swing him around. A stab of jealousy hit him faster than he ever would have thought possible. He knew he was being unreasonable feeling that way, he knew it centered on what had happened with Travis. He knew Kurt loved him, knew Kurt was his, and he believed with everything in him that Kurt would never cheat on him, but the sight of some other man touching his Kurt was something he didn't like to see. Especially since he knew this person wasn't in anyway related to Kurt.

"Noah, I swear if you don't put me down, I will pull out your hair, and leave you with just a Mohawk" Kurt laughed

"Hey, I rocked that look princess" Puck said before sitting Kurt down on his feet looking around "Where is my main man"

"Here Unc Noah" Max said running down the stairs, followed by Burt, Carole and the other two kids. He ran straight to Puck, laughing when he was thrown in the air

"How have you been, I haven't seen you in months" Puck said holding Max in his arms

"Ok; I have a new daddy and sisser" Max said with a grin

"I think I might have heard about that little man from Uncle Finn" Puck said looking over at Kurt and the man that had walked in the room right after him. He smiled when he saw the guy instantly put his arm around Kurt's waist the minute he had sat him down, pulling Kurt closer to him and further away from Puck.

He instantly liked the guy, in that moment he could see just how much he cared for Kurt and that was all he needed to see. Him and Finn weren't going to have to take him into the back yard and threaten to hurt him if he ever hurt Kurt. He could just tell by looking at him that wasn't something they ever needed to worry about, Kurt was in a safe place, finally.

Blaine realized listening to the guy talk to Max who he was and then instantly got over the brief bout of jealousy he had been feeling, now he was just feeling nervous, he was about to meet Kurt's other high school protector.

"Come on Puck I have some important people I want you to meet" Kurt said looking at Noah. He walked over to Carol and took Ali from her and then walked back over to Blaine a look of contentment on his face.

"Noah Puckerman, I would love for you to meet my fiancé Blaine Anderson, and my daughter Ali" Kurt said with a proud smile on his face, still getting used to calling someone his fiancé, and daughter. Sometimes it was still hard to believe that Blaine was real and wanted to marry him. That Blaine had felt the same way he had back during high school.

Blaine stepped forward and shook Pucks hand "Nice to finally meet you Noah, the last time we saw each other I apparently gave you the wrong impression of me" Blaine said with a smile

Puck looked at him, tilting his head, trying to remember why he looked so familiar, and then it hit him. "Oh crap you were that preppy boy who came to McKinley to see princess here. Me and Finn scared you off because we thought you were there to harass my man Kurt here" Puck said shaking his hand

"What ever happened to that super hot chick you were with that day, since you are with Princess here I can take it she wasn't your girlfriend" Puck said looking at Blaine hopefully

"That super hot chick is my best friend Kara, and she is behind you," Blaine said with a grin

Kurt watched as the scene unfolded, and for the life of him, he thinks he saw badass Noah Puckerman blush for the first time in his life

"Shit" Puck said softly before covering his mouth remembering the three kids in the room. Turning around slowly he looked at Kara "Please forget what I just said," Puck said looking at her, at a loss for words for the first time in his life.

Kurt took pity on him "Noah, this is mine and Blaine's friend Kara Martin, Kara this is one of my best friends Noah Puckerman" Kurt said smiling looking between them and then turning around looking at Blaine raising his eyebrows. Blaine just shrugs his shoulders pulling Kurt to him as they watch their friends connect, they both knew this was going to be good.

Blaine finally paid attention to what the kids were wearing and could only smile. Carol had managed to find the boys matching outfits. They were both wearing light blue shorts with little dark blue boats on them, and a polo shirt that was the color of the boats. They each had on white socks and dark blue converse sneakers.

What really got him was what his little Ali was wearing. She had on a little dress, it was a dark blue color that matched the color the boys had on. The color was perfect for her skin tone. On her little dress, instead of little boats it had little light blue ducks all over. Blaine was in love, she looked perfect and he couldn't believe Carol had gone to so much trouble to include his little girl, dressing her like her grandsons but making hers a little different because she was a girl. She too was wearing little white socks with ruffled edges, and with a smile he noticed her light blue converse.

Blaine did what he loved to do, he took pictures, not just of the kids but of Carol and Burt together and with the three kids. He took pictures of Finn, Rachel and Alex and then pictures of Kurt with Burt, Carol, Finn and their kids. Blaine can't stop the smile from spreading across his face as Kurt holds both Ali and Max for the family picture.

When Blaine had finished taking the pictures, him and Kurt left to go get copies printed for Carol. When they walked out the door, the first thing they saw was what looked like Kara pulling away from Puck. They had just gotten caught kissing. Blaine could only smile. He had always been worried about Kara. She would date, but never seemed to find someone that Blaine felt was good enough for his best friend. From what Kurt had always told him about Puck, she might have just met her match.

"Kara, I'm going to assume you don't want to come with me and Kurt" Blaine said knowingly. He had never seen that look on Kara's face before.

"No, umm if it is ok, I will just wait here for you" She answered and Blaine could only smile more, laughing softly

"Well, if your sure we will be right back" Blaine said as he walked to Kurt's door opening it for him before walking around and getting in the driver's seat, looking at Kurt. "What do you think"

"Well judging by the look on both their faces, I would say Noah "Puck" Puckerman is no longer available" Kurt answered laughing, still not believing Noah and Kara.

They looked at each other for a minute and then back up on the porch, watching as Puck slowly pulled Kara to him kissing her again. "I somehow think that neither one of them is available anymore." Blaine said happy for his best friend. Looking at Kurt he slowly pulled him to him and placed a soft kiss on his lips. "I love you" he whispered before kissing him again.

"I love you too" Kurt said looking in his eyes, feeling so beyond happy. Still sometimes not believing the wonderful man in front of him was his.

They went and got the pictures for Carol printed. One of the pictures he had taken today they were having blown up to give to Carol for Mother's day. It was of the three kids that she hadn't seen him take. Blaine had caught the kids playing, when no one was looking. He had just decided they had taken enough pictures and was about to put his camera away.

He had looked up with the camera still in his hand and looked over at the kids. Ali had stolen Kara's bead necklace. She had put it on her neck the way she had seen her "aunt" Kara wear it. She had been just sitting there on a chair holding it out so Max and Alex could see it. The look of amazement on the kid's faces as they played with it together was priceless, and Blaine had almost missed it. It was an unplanned picture, but both Kurt and Blaine thought it was the best one taken that day.

While they were there Kurt looked through the picture Blaine had taken of Max and decided which ones they would print out for Blaine's mom, and then picked out frames for them.

When they drove back to the Hummel house the first thing they saw was Puck and Kara where still on the porch but were now sitting on the porch swing side by side heads touching as the softly talked to each other. It looked almost like a case of love at second site. Kurt and Blaine couldn't be happier. Kara had been so sad lately with her love life and Blaine would love nothing more than to see her as happy as him and Kurt were. He felt more comfortable with the possibility of her and Puck being together.

They went inside and gave Carol the pictures, showing her all but the special one. They had bought frames for hers as well, but didn't put the pictures in them figuring that was something She would want to do herself. She walked over to Blaine with tears in her eyes.

"Thank you so much, these are beautiful" She whispered so overwhelmed by the pictures he had taken. They looked like they had been taken in a professional studio.

"You are so welcome. I have them all on a memory card, so I can make you more copies if you ever need them" Blaine said smiling, it always made him feel good when someone liked his work, thinking back for a moment of how Travis had always just thought his hobby was stupid.

Before either of them were ready, it was time to head back to Westerville get their luggage and get ready for their plane ride home. Blaine once again thanked Carol and Burt for the party they had thrown for Ali, loving his extended family already.

Hugs and kisses where given, goodbyes were said, and unbeknownst to anyone else phone numbers were exchanged between Kara and Puck. They had made plans for Noah to meet Kara in New York next weekend. They had decided to keep their plans quiet for now.

When they finally got back to Westerville they were running a little later than they had planned so they didn't really get to spend much time with Blaine's parents before they had to say goodbye again. Blaine gave his mom the pictures they had had printed for her of Max, and watched as a smile spread across her face. They watch as she walked into the living room and placed them in between the different pictures of Ali. Kurt could only smile feeling that he was really part of this family already, just the way Blaine had felt with the Hummel's.

oOoOo

They got home just in time to get the kids to bed. They hugged Kara at her door and Kurt and Blaine watched her go into her apartment before opening their door and walking in. They gave the kids a bath together as they went on and on about the day they had had. Blaine can only laugh as Ali keeps talking about cosin Al.

They got the kids dressed and then took them into Max's room. Right now they seemed to like it better than Ali's room. Blaine sat down with a book and read to them as Kurt went to take a bath and get ready for bed.

He was just getting out and drying himself off when he heard Blaine walk in the room and softly shut the door. Walking up behind Kurt, Blaine wrapped his arms around his waist and pulled Kurt back against his chest. He leaned his head down so he could kiss Kurt's neck on the spot he had discovered drove him crazy, nuzzling there for a minute

"I have missed you," Blaine whispered in his ear pulling him back even closer, kissing down the back of his beautiful neck to his shoulder before gently biting down and then running his tongue over the spot

"I have been with you all weekend Blaine" Kurt breathed out moving his head back giving Blaine better access to his neck.

"But, we haven't been able to do this" Blaine whispers before turning Kurt around kissing his face, his eyes and then his mouth, deep, hungry and with all the love he feels. He runs his hands down Kurt's body pulling him close, knowing he will never be able to be close enough to him.

Reaching down to grasp Kurt's hand, he led him over to the bed gently pushing him back until he was lying down. Blaine quickly removed his clothes before crawling in on top of Kurt, loving the feeling of him being under him, thrusting his hips down slowly rhythmically. Reconnecting with him in a way he had missed all weekend, in that moment, more in love that he had ever been, feeling more than he ever had felt.

When they could no longer wait Blaine gently started sliding into Kurt, slowly, taking his time never wanting to hurt him. When he was finally all the way in, he waited a moment giving Kurt time to adjust, before slowly pulling out and then thrusting back in, slowly at first, before picking up speed.

Gently thrusting in and out of Kurt's perfect body, he knew he would never get tired of this, of loving this man, wanting to give him everything. When he felt Kurt start to thrust his hips up faster moaning his name, Blaine knew he was getting close, he reached between them, grasp Kurt's cock in his hand and started sliding his hand up and down, keeping rhythm with his thrusting hips

Blaine starts feeling the coiling in his stomach and the tightening of his balls and he knows he is close himself, just wanting to get Kurt there first. When he feels Kurt come warm in his hands he thrust forward a little harder a few times and then allows his own release. Leaning down he kisses the sweetest lips he has ever seen.

"I love you so much" he whispered in Kurt's ear, before leaning back and kissing him again, not wanting to move from where he was. He loved the feel of Kurt lying under him.

"I love you too" Kurt said still so out of breath, wondering how every time they made love it got better and better.

Blaine lays there on top of Kurt for a few minutes, not really wanting to move, or pull out of him, but he knows it will become too sensitive for Kurt if he doesn't. He slowly pulls out and then rolls over onto his side pulling Kurt with him so he can cradle him in his arms, facing him he starts peppering little kisses all over his face.

Blaine raised his hand and slowly stroked Kurt's cheek with his thumb. Whispering "Have I told you before how amazing you are, and how very lucky I feel to have you and Max in my life"

Kurt felt the tears build in his eyes, looking at the most amazing man he had ever met. Blaine always made him feel special, but at times like this… reaching up his hand he cupped Blaine's cheek "We are the lucky ones" Kurt whispered leaning in to kiss Blaine.

"How about we both agree we are all lucky" Blaine said looking into the bluest eyes he had ever seen

"That will work. Now, even though I really don't want to move, I feel the need of a shower. Would you like to join me" Kurt said almost a little shyly. He was comfortable with Blaine, but sometimes could still not get past some of the issues he had with Drew.

Blaine leaned forward placing a kiss on Kurt's forehead before rolling over and swinging his legs off the side of the bed. He turned around facing Kurt holding out his hand to help him up. "Try to stop me" Blaine said walking with Kurt into the bathroom. He started the water and adjusted it to the temperature he knew Kurt liked before they stepped in. Blaine stopping every few minutes just too pull Kurt into his arms, or to kiss him, not wanting to let him go.

Once they got out and dried off they dressed in their pajamas, together they quickly changed the sheets on the bed and then climbed in, cuddling up and falling asleep.

Blaine forgot to open the bedroom door…..

Blaine woke up to screaming children and little fist pounding on the door. Rolling over looking at the clock Blaine jerked up when he saw what time it was. He was supposed to be at school in thirty minutes and Kurt was supposed to be at work in fifteen. Blaine had forgotten to set the alarm.

"Shit, Kurt sweetheart we are late" Blaine said waking Kurt up before running to the door and letting in two distraught kids.

"Guys, I'm sorry I didn't open the door. Let me get dressed and we will go have breakfast ok" Blaine said bending down kissing each one of them on their head, turning around he saw Kurt running around like a mad man, getting dressed. Blaine could hear him mumbling something under his breath that he couldn't understand.

"I gotta go" Kurt said running to the door as soon as he was dressed, not even taking a second to say goodbye to the kids much less Blaine.

Blaine stood there staring at the front door in complete shock. Kurt had never walked out the door not saying goodbye especially to Max. He got the kids dressed, and picking them up he carried them into the kitchen giving them each a bowl of cereal, settling for just a cup of coffee for himself. Trying to figure out what happened with Kurt, and why Kara hadn't come this morning like she usually did.

Once they were finished eating, he grabbed their little backpacks and both kids and almost ran to the elevator and out to his car. He got the kids dropped off and just had time to slide into his seat for his law class with one minute to spare.

By the time Blaine stopped at the daycare to pick the kids up after school; his butt was dragging, between the weekend and the extracurricular activities last night, not that he would EVER complain about that, he was just really tired. He still needed to get the kids and go home and start dinner knowing that tonight is one of Kurt's late nights.

Blaine had tried to call him during his lunch hour, but all he got was Kurt's voicemail which was really odd. Blaine could count on one hand the number of times that had happened since they started talking, he had then tried texting Kurt and got no response. He had spent his lunch hour in the law library completing assignments so he wouldn't have to do it at home tonight.

When he walked into the daycare to check the kids out, he was surprised to find out that Kurt had been there and had already picked them up. Any time one of them was going to pick up the kids when the other person was supposed to they always called the other person to let them know. Kurt hadn't said a word. Running his hands down his face, Blaine turned around, walked back to his car and headed home.

Blaine is now seriously getting worried. First there was Kurt flying out of the apartment this morning without saying goodbye, then he didn't answer Blaine's calls or text, and now he had picked up the kids and didn't call Blaine to let him know, that wasn't like him at all.

Blaine ran into the apartment scared only to find Kurt sitting on the couch in a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt holding a wine glass in his hand. On the coffee table in front of him was a half empty bottle of wine.

"Hi there" Kurt said slurring his words, visibly drunk

"Kurt where are the kids" Blaine asked with concern

"Kurt where are the kids" Kurt mimicked him

"Kurt what is wrong with you" Blaine asked him

"Kurt what is wrong with you, blah blah blah" Kurt said in a whiny voice mocking Blaine.

"You know what Kurt fine, I don't know what your problem is, but I am going to go check on my kids. When you decide to grow up, maybe you might want to join us" Blaine said madder than he had been in a long time. He never thought he would ever get mad at Kurt but now…

"You only have one kid" Blaine barely heard Kurt slur out

"What" Blaine said looking at Kurt in shock. Kurt didn't answer; he just held up his wine glass and used it to salute Blaine before taking a big drink

"You know what Kurt… Ya know what… never mind" Blaine said looking at Kurt for a few minutes before walking down the hallway to find the kids. The first thing he noticed was that they were being very quiet. When he walked into Max's room he saw that the kids hadn't been changed out of their school clothes. That was usually one of the first things they did, so that they could be comfortable.

The next thing Blaine realized was that apparently they had found a black permanent marker somewhere in the house, and had drawn all over each other, on their clothes , the walls and Max's bed. His sheets and comforter were ruined and would need to be replaced the next weekend.

Blaine just stood there staring, not believing what he was seeing. Thinking about what they could have gotten into if he hadn't come home when he did, what if he had been held back at school for something, or he had been needed at the law office which happened occasionally. Shaking his head he stripped both kids and put them in the bathtub using everything he could think of to get the marker off their skin, only to find that nothing worked, it would just have to wear off.

He decided then and there he would be missing school tomorrow. Luckily it was one of his short days anyway so he really wouldn't miss that much. After he bathed the kids and got them dried off and put them in their pajamas, and then carried them into Ali's room to play for a while.

He went back to the bathroom and picked up their ruined clothes and threw them away. There was no way they would ever come clean. He slowly made his way back into Max's room with a Clorox wipe. He managed to get most of the marks off the bed, but the wall itself would have to be repainted. Blaine sighed, yet another project for this weekend.

He was now beyond pissed, those kids could have really been hurt. Kurt had been too busy in the living room getting drunk to take the time to even check on them. Blaine decided he wasn't going to say anything to him tonight, because as drunk as Kurt was he knew he wouldn't get anywhere anyway, but they were going to have a long talk tomorrow.

Blaine, even though tired he had planned on coming home tonight to see if Kurt would be interested in setting the date for their wedding. He had hoped they could snuggle together on the couch and start working on the arrangements, now… he didn't know if he even wanted to go through with the wedding at all.

Blaine fed the kids, not saying a word to Kurt. When it was time for them to go to bed, he carried them into Ali's room, after reading them a story, he put them in bed, kissed each one of them on the head, and told them he loved them and telling them goodnight. He stood there staring at them for a few minutes, before slowly walking away.

When he got back into the living room, he saw Kurt was passed out on the couch. Instead of sitting down beside him, and snuggling up with him the way he usually did when he had school work he needed to complete, he went into the unused office/guest room instead.

Blaine needed to get away from Kurt before he said or did something he knew he would regret. He felt like once again his world was falling apart. He sat down on the bed, for a few minutes laying his head in his hands, still not believing any of that happened, still so lost.

Raising his head Blaine pulled his phone out of his pocket and called Kara, the first person he always went to when he had a problem. When there was a knock on the door, Blaine answered it and was pulled into Kara's arms. She knew that when Blaine called like he just did, and asked her to come over, it was bad.

"What's wrong Blaine" she asked pulling back from him

"One sec" Blaine whispered, looking into the living room and seeing that Kurt was still passed out on the couch, he also noticed that Kurt had finished the bottle of wine and had dropped his wine glass in front of him.

Afraid that Kurt would stand up and step on the glass and hurt himself Blaine walked to the front of the couch, picked up the glass and placed to softly on the table. Reaching across Kurt, Blaine grabbed the blanket that he always kept hanging on the back of the couch and covered Kurt up, before picking up the wine glass and bottle and taking them in the kitchen.

"Come on, let's go to the office" Blaine said leading the way. He sat back down on the bed, trying so hard to control his emotions, refusing to let her see him cry again.

"Blaine" Kara questioned looking at him, sitting down beside him, knowing that look far to well

"Last night everything was fine, we got the kids in bed, and then we had some alone time. Not trying to get to personal. When we went to sleep last night everything was wonderful. But before we fell asleep, I forgot to open the bedroom door so the kids could come in, and on top of that I didn't set my alarm. We woke up late." Blaine said feeling as his eyes filled up with tears, before pushing them back.

"He left this morning without even saying goodbye, not to me, not to the kids, nothing. He wouldn't answer my calls or texts today, and when I went to pick up Ali and Max at daycare they told me that Kurt had already picked them up. We always call each other so we know the other person doesn't have to pick them up."

"When I came home Kara, Kurt had been drinking. He was drunk with our kids here. I found them in Max's room, they had gotten ahold of a permanent marker and had written all over each other, their clothes, Max's bed and walls. You know I could care less about the things, but what if something had happened to them and I wasn't here to protect them, and the parent that was here was drunk off of his ass"

"When I asked him where the kids were when I got home, he mocked what I said in a whiny voice like he was making fun of me. I don't even know where to go with this Kara; I never would have expected something like this from him"

"And everything was fine when you went to bed last night?" Kara asked looking at Blaine seeing how upset he was. She had hoped to never see that look on his face ever again

"Everything was fine, he was as loving as ever, and everything was fine, well better than fine when we went to sleep last night. I just don't know what happened between then and this morning. And with him being passed out drunk I can't ask him." Blaine whispered, doing his best to not completely break down.

"The only thing I can say is give him time to sober up, and maybe he will be ready to talk in the morning. Don't give up on him, give him time to explain. I know he loves you , and I know how much you love him. Don't get ahead of yourself, wait till in the morning to talk to him to make any big decisions ok?" Kara said grabbing Blaine's hand and holding it tight.

"Makes since, I am going to stay home from school tomorrow, I only have two classes anyway. I want to see what I can come up with to take the marker off of the kids before I have to take them back to school. Maybe if Kurt gets home early enough tomorrow we can figure out what went wrong. I don't want to give up on him, Kara, I love him too much for that." Blaine said feeling better. Kara always seemed to know what to do to calm Blaine down, and he loved her for that.

"I am going to go back home and crawl into bed, I have an early morning. Call me if you need me ok" Kara said standing up and waiting for Blaine to stand before pulling him in a hug. "I love you my MopTop, and it is going to be ok" she said kissing him on the cheek.

"Thanks for coming over KarBear. I know you had more important things to do" Blaine whispered.

"Blaine, there will never be anything more important than you. Love you" she said walking to the door.

"Love you too, see you later, and…. Thanks again Kara." Blaine said hugging her for a few minutes before opening his door and standing there watching as she walked to her door and then walked in before shutting his behind him.

Blaine went back into the office and crawled in bed. He didn't want to sleep in his room in case Kurt got up in the middle of the night and went in there. Blaine wanted to be away from him for a little longer. But also, if he was honest with himself, he also wanted to be near Kurt in case he needed him.

oOoOo

"Blaine..."

"Blaine, wake up for me ok" Kurt said running his hand down Blaine's face trying to wake him up.

"Kurt, go to bed" Blaine said drowsily before rolling over and turning his back to Kurt, fully awake now but not ready to talk yet.

"I want you to come with me. Come on B we have a couple of hours before you have to get ready for school" Kurt whispered not liking the way Blaine was acting, even when Blaine was asleep if Kurt woke him up like this he was ready to go.

"Fine Kurt, if you won't leave I will. I'm not ready to talk to you yet" Blaine said getting out of bed and heading to the door not even looking at him.

"Blaine what is going on, please talk to me" Kurt said jumping up grabbing Blaine's arm to stop him from leaving.

Blaine turned around and jerked his arm out of Kurt's grasp "I wanted to wait until I was a little calmer so I wouldn't say anything I would regret, but if you want to get into this now, follow me." Blaine said walking towards the bathroom where he had thrown away the kid clothes. He pulled them out of the trashcan and threw them at Kurt before walking into Max's room and turning on the light so that Kurt could see what the kids had done

"Blaine, what happened" Kurt questioned softly so they would wake up the kids

Blaine just stared at him "You don't remember" he asked in shock

"No Blaine, tell me what is going on" Kurt said looking at the room and the clothes in his hand and then back to Blaine's face. He had never seen him angry before, and to see that anger pointed at him was something he never thought he would see.

"Living room" was all Blaine said shutting off Max's light and walking away, right now not even caring if Kurt followed him or not. Blaine didn't normally have a temper, it took a lot to make him mad but after the hurt of last night had faded, all he had been left with was anger. He started pacing around the living room trying to get himself under control before he opened his mouth.

His 2, three year old children had been left basically alone. Yes Kurt had been here but by the time Blaine had gotten home Kurt was so out of it he didn't know which end was up. Now seeing that Kurt couldn't even remember what happened just made him even madder.

Those two could have gotten seriously hurt, if they found that marker they could have found knives, scissors anything. That thought alone scared the shit out of him and makes him realize he needs to move some stuff around, now that the kids were taller and able to reach more

"Blaine, are you going to talk to me and tell me what is going on" Kurt said looking at Blaine biting on his bottom lip. Blaine was making him nervous, he didn't like this at all.

"Would you like to tell me what happened yesterday" Blaine asked finally stopping and looking at Kurt.

"I don't know what you mean Blaine, tell me what is going on" Kurt said trying not to scream

"I called you at lunch yesterday like I always do and you didn't answer. That was ok because I know you were at work, and it can get busy sometimes. I texted you several times and you never once responded. Ok once again because you were at work. Then I went to pick up our children from daycare only to find out you already had them. This got me a little concerned because it was my day to pick them up, and you always call when you pick them up when I am supposed to."

"Then I walk in here, find you on the couch with a wine glass in your hand, a half bottle of wine on the table and you're slurring your words. I asked you were the kids were and you mocked me not once but twice. Then… then when I tell you I am going to go check on my kids you politely remind me that I only have one kid, and then you fucking saluted me with your wine glass"

Blaine finally looked at Kurt and saw his face, and could tell he remember none of this. "When I walked into Max's room I found two kids covered head to toe in black permanent marker. They had written on each other all over Max's bed, bedding and walls."

"You left 'our' 2 three year old children alone, by themselves while you decided to get drunk. What if they had found something besides just a marker, those kids could have seriously hurt themselves and there was no one here watching them. What if they had been tall enough to open a door, they could have left and who knows what could have happened to them then. If you had had such a bad day that you felt like you needed to have a drunken binge you could have at least waited for me to come home so I could watch the kids" Blaine said finally starting to calm down now that he had gotten everything off his chest.

"Can you sit down so we can talk" Kurt whispered looking at Blaine, not believing he had been so stupid, if something had happened to those kids he never would have forgiven himself. And the things he had said to Blaine…..

He watched Blaine sit down on the opposite side of the couch, making sure that they weren't touching, but he did finally turn around to face him.

"I'm so sorry Blaine, I am sooo sorry. I know that doesn't change anything but I am. Yesterday was bad. I was late for work again and I was already on probation…"

"Wait… what…. Why were you on probation?" Blaine asked because this was the first he was hearing about this, he only knew of one other time they had slept late and Kurt was a few minutes late for work.

"Last month I messed up on a really big order, it happens but this was a BIG order for a very important client and I sent the wrong thing. Since this was considered my second offense I was put on probation, with me being late today even if it was only five minutes I was called into the office and fired. I have never been fired from anywhere before. I kind of lost it. I went to the park and walked around until lunch and then I went to get the kids and came home, I meant to call you too let you know"

"I was only going to drink one glass I promise. I needed it to calm me down. That is the last thing I remember until I woke up alone on the couch and saw it was 2:00am and you hadn't woken me up to go to bed. I went looking for you and when you weren't in our bed, I went to the office and found you there."

"So, you started drinking at lunch time, while you were here alone with our children…" Blaine said looking at him, trying to not get mad all over again

"Blaine, I honestly didn't expect to get drunk. Like I said I was going to only drink one glass" Kurt said not even trying to defend himself

Blaine rubbed his hands over his face trying to stay calm. This is the very reason he only ever allows himself one glass of wine when he even drinks that. He doesn't ever want to get drunk and leave his children unprotected.

"Ok, so what are your plans now" Blaine said quietly still rubbing his face

"I don't know yet. Tomorrow I need to look for another job, I just don't know where I will find one that pays what they did, or is as convenient to Max's school. I still have some savings so I can get by for a few months but I really don't know" Kurt said looking at Blaine

"I have an idea, you had talked about going into the design business on your own. I have seen your work and you are really good. Why don't you try that, I can support you and Max until you can get that up and running. We can clean out the office and you can use that as your design space, and then we could find you a location to set up shop." Blaine said a little excited that Kurt might actually get to do what he had always wanted to do, be his own boss.

"Support me Blaine? Support me and Max? I don't need someone to support me and my son, I can take care of the both of us just fine" Kurt snapped

Blaine jumped up and stared at him, that was the second time in under 24 hours that Kurt had made a comment that Max wasn't his. True he might not be legally, but he was in every way that mattered, just like Ali was Kurt's in the same way

"I want to help Kurt. All I meant was I could support you until you could get your business under way, we are going to be married soon anyway so what's mine is yours" Blaine said trying to keep his emotions under control

"I don't need a sugar daddy taking care of me and 'my' son, I already fucking live in your house I don't need you to leave money on the dresser as you walk out of the bedroom, and if you hadn't conveniently forgotten to set the alarm, I would still have a job" Kurt said jumping up staring at Blaine with his hands on his hips.

"Fine Kurt fine… if that is how you feel. I was trying to help, not offering to pay you for sexual favors as you so prettily implied. If you wanted it, we could have considered it a loan, you could have paid me back if that made you feel better, but fine. Figure out what to do, on your own, and the last I checked you know how to set a damn alarm yourself."

"Also that is the third time that you have referred to Max as your son. Yes, I know he isn't mine legally, but I love that child like he was mine, I love him as much as I love Ali and you know it. I fucking treat them the same." Blaine said feeling white hot anger for the first time in his life. He had never felt like this before. The words Kurt had said were so unbelievable.

Blaine walked out of the living room turning his back on Kurt, he walked into the bedroom, put a week's worth of suits and clothes in a suitcase, grabbed his toiletries out of the bathroom threw that in his suitcase and zipped it closed. Before leaving the room he grabbed his phone charger and wallet shoving them in his pocket. Making sure he had everything he needed for a week in a hotel he went to pack everything Ali would need as well.

Turning on the night light so he wouldn't wake the kids up and scare them Blaine grabbed out dresses, short sets, under clothes and shoes putting them in Ali's little suitcase, almost forgetting her favorite stuffed rabbit. He shut the lid on her suitcase before bending down and picking her up, not bothering to change her. He grabbed their suitcases, and walked toward the living room. Setting the bags by the front door Blaine grabbed his cell phone and keys off of the table where he had left them before turning around and facing Kurt, only then seeing the tears streaming down his face.

"Me and my daughter will be staying in a motel for a week. Call me when you and your son are out of my apartment and I'll come home" Blaine said grabbing their suitcases and opening the door.

"Blaine…." Was the last thing he heard as he softly shut the door.
