Santana and Brittany throw the reception for them in Rachel's dads' backyard and invited everyone they could think of from Lima. Santana even took an ad out to invite people during the nightly news on television to witness the joy of Lima's two finest gays thrown by Lima's two finest lesbians. Kurt cringed when he saw the clip on YouTube as shown to him by Sam.

Kurt loaded up on beer and chips and felt guilty while chowing down on Carole's famous brownies. He looked over to see his dad and Paul hitting it off and laughing as if they were the best friends in the world and Kurt knew they really could be if Dave and he had actually gotten married. He turned away and watched Dave get interrogated by Kurt's high school friends and felt bad for him slightly, until he remembered that it was his fault they were in this mess in the first place.

Rachel and Finn showed up an hour late to the party with a special guest for Kurt and Kurt was a bit apprehensive and nervous, until he spotted her walking toward him with a huge grin.

"Mercedes!?"

"Hey, white boy!"
"How in the hell did you manage to get time off to come back to Lima? I thought your bosses were driving you crazy with work."

"Well Louis loves a good story and he thought you eloping with the "love of your life" was just so romantic and I would be fired if I didn't march my fabulous black ass back to Ohio to get all the juicy details. So here I am. And I have to say, Kurt, your best friend doesn't even get a "hey, I just got married to someone; it's a guy who used to be bully me, no big deal."

Kurt winced at that and knew Dave had been listening.

He took Mercedes hand and took her to the other side of the yard.

"It's not like that at all, Mercy. I love him."

"You love Dave Karofsky?"

"I know that it might be sudden to you, but I have been in love with him for over a year now and we're married and I'm sorry I didn't tell you about this, but to be fair, I didn't even tell Rachel until after we had already eloped."

"And you thought I wasn't worth telling this to?"

"Mercedes, it wasn't exactly something we were going to just spring on people. We wanted people to get used to the idea and slowly come to accept that we are now husbands."

"Actually I was just wondering why you stopped talking to me about any of this, the last time you talked to me was like over a year ago and you told me you hated him. I mean I knew you were hanging out and liked him and had feelings for him, but this is new and sudden."

"I'm sorry and I didn't think you'd want to hear my conflicting feelings and thoughts, considering I was all over the place."

Mercedes just sighed and turned to look at Dave who was laughing about something with Sam and Finn.

"So, Dave Karofsky. I gotta say, I am surprised, but if you love him and want to be with him, then I'll give him a chance, but if he breaks your heart, I'm coming back to Lima and heads will roll."

Kurt just laughed and hugged her tight, "And I promise to call you from now on anytime I have a fight with David and want to kill him."

Kurt went to find some more beer and was just getting ready to sit down in a chair when he heard a commotion by the gate on the other side of the house.

He heard yelling and a very angry woman slurring he words,

"Where the fuck is he? You tell him that his mother is here to see him and he fucking better see me."

Kurt groaned as he realized who it was. It was Dave's mom. Dave's very homophobic, drunk mother.

Kurt got up quickly and made his way to the gate. He told Hiram Berry that he'd take care of it.

He stood to face the thin brunette, who was barely standing up against the fence,

"What are you doing here, Mrs. Karofsky?"

"I should ask the same of you, you fucking queer."

"I'm here, because it's my wedding reception."

"You stole my son and made him that way."

"What way is that?"

"The way you are, disgusting and a freak. I hope you enjoy hell, you heathen. Gnashing of teeth and wailing forever and no one will give you even a drop of water."

Kurt rolled his eyes and then pinched the bridge of his nose before responding,

"Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life present in him. First John 3: 15. You want to discuss and compare sins. I'm pretty sure hating your son or me or anyone for that matter, for being gay, is a sin and as that verse says if you don't have eternal life present in you, that means Jesus isn't in you and you are not going to heaven either. So please, spare me your theological bullshit, when you have no idea what the Bible even says. Besides, I'm not sure I'd even want to go to heaven, if it means I'd have to spend eternity there with the likes of you."

Dave's mother huffed and stamped her feet.

Paul and Dave had come behind Kurt during the showdown and neither moved to calm her down or make her feel better, which agitated her even more.

"So you're just going to take this little fairies side? He is the reason David's like that, Paul!"
"Actually, he isn't. I'd say we'd have more to do with that. Haven't you heard about the scientific studies coming out now that says it could be genetic? Didn't you have that gay aunt? The one who lived with her special friend for forty years and never got married?"

"My Aunt Gertrude was not gay! She and my Aunt Lillian were just friends."

"If your aunt was not gay, why did you call another woman who was not your aunt, aunt? They were gay."

Santana was off to the side cackling like a hyena, while everyone else tried to pretend to be busy with their drinks or plates of food.

Eileen Karofsky stood there staring daggers at everyone.

Burt finally stepped forward,

"Eileen, I know this is hard for you, but today is about celebrating the marriage of our sons and if you cannot wish them happiness and a long life, then perhaps you should leave."

She looked about ready to argue with Burt, but saw Dave shake his head and step forward.

"That was not a suggestion mother, you need to leave. I'm celebrating my marriage right now and I know you hate Kurt, and me but I'm happy and guess what? Grandma Sue, your mother is happy too, she is the reason I feel comfortable enough to share my life and love with Kurt, and even though you don't get it or like it, it's not changing. If you cannot find it within yourself to at the very least deal with it, then I don't want you in my life with your negativity. You need to decide if your homophobia is worth losing your son and future grandchildren."

Dave walked away, Kurt saw him trying to hold back tears, and he watched him walk into the guesthouse.

Eileen finally left when Paul called her a cab to take her home and the party resumed as best as it could. Sue went in after Dave and Paul joined them not long after Kurt wanted to go in after David, but knew David needed his grandmother and mother.

Rachel finally told him to go check on his husband after staring at the guesthouse while she was talking to him about New York City and Brody and Kurt caught maybe one minute out of an entire ten-minute conversation.

Kurt walked in and found Dave sitting on the couch with his grandmother and father trying to cheer him up.

Sue smiled when saw Kurt.

"Davey, your husband is here. You should talk to him. Believe it or not, you are not in this alone. That's the perks of having a spouse; they get to share all the parent crap with you."

She and Paul left and Kurt was left with a dejected looked Dave.

"I'm sorry, David."

Dave looked up in shock and scoffed.

"What are you sorry for?"

"I didn't mean to make things worse for you and your mom."

"Kurt, you did nothing wrong. IN fact, I am fucking impressed with how you dealt with her. And I'm actually proud of myself for standing up to her. It just fucking sucks that my mom is such a judgmental bitch, even after I tried to commit suicide. I just fucking don't get it."

"That's because it doesn't make sense. I mean why hate someone because they love someone from the same sex? I mean think about it, if we had kids, I know that you wouldn't give a rat's ass if they were gay, straight, or bisexual. I know you wouldn't care if they loved musicals and science and read books instead of playing sports."

David smiled, "Well, I might be disappointed, but hey I'd get them to read sports books!"

Kurt just laughed and grabbed Dave's hand, "Listen to me. Your mom doesn't know what she's missing out on and that's her fault. It's not yours and it was never your fault. I know it's hard and that you can't help but feeling like shit, but whenever you feel like that, you just come talk to me and I'll keep telling you that your mom is an idiot and that even if she never gets to know you or is accepting of who you are, there are other people who are and there are people who love you."

"Really? There are people who love me?"

"Of course. Your grandma, your dad, Rachel, Brody, Santana."

Kurt wanted to add me, but didn't think it was the right time.

But Dave seemed to read his mind.

"And you? You're one?"
Kurt wanted to tell him everything in his heart, but settle for the safe answer.

"Of course, David. You're my best friend. I love you."

Dave nodded and looked down at his friends and looked as if his puppy had just been shot. Kurt thought maybe he misread that question and the situation and was about to admit the truth, but then Dave looked up and smiled brightly and said,

"Good. Because I have a feeling this is not going to be easy and I'm going to need all the support I can get."

"Well, we are married now, so I guess that counts, right?"

Dave smiled and held his hand out,

"Come on. Let's go back and convince our guests how in love we are."

They walked back out and had a good time with their friends and family.

Rachel and Finn kept telling them how shocked they were that they ended up married, because of how much they hated each other just a few weeks prior in Vegas.

Dave and Kurt kept waiting for someone else to mention something or for their fraud to be revealed and it was disconcerting.

Then Grandma Sue clanked her glass and made Kurt and Dave kiss and Kurt sort of forgot his head and everything and it was a very believable Kiss.

Dave even looked thrown for a loop at the kiss, but everyone shut up and wish them good luck.

Rachel's dads had some food and lube delivered as a wedding gift. Dave blushed bright red and thrust the lube in Kurt's hand and told him to take care of it.

Kurt just laughed at Dave's shyness about getting lube and teased him about it later. Dave told him to drop it. They ate their pizza and watched some Gossip Girl on Netflix.

There was knock at the door and Kurt got up to get it. He figured it was Rachel pretending to bring them more blankets that they'd need in the middle of the summer or another raunchy gift from one of her dads. Instead, it was Dave's mother again.

This time she was sober and looking annoyed.

"Can I help you?"

"Is my son here?"
"He is, but I don't think he wants to see you."

"You cannot keep me from my son, Kyle."

"My name is Kurt, and Dave already told you everything he has to say to you. Why did you come back here?"

"I just wanted to let him know that I'm going to stay with my sister Judith for a while in Cleveland and if he needs to get in touch with me, he can call me there."

"I will do that. Have a safe trip."

Eileen just huffed some more and then finally turned around when she realized Kurt was not going to let her speak to Dave.

Kurt sighed and shut the door.

He turned back to see Dave watching him from the couch.

"I'm sorry. I just cannot stand her and I didn't want you to have deal with here again today."

David just got up and kissed Kurt.

It took Kurt by surprise and he nearly fell into the wall and then Dave was pushing him back into the living room and Dave was kissing his way down his throat and taking Kurt's clothing off and Kurt knew where this was heading and before he could let his brain decide whether or not it was a good idea, his cock was in Dave's mouth and he didn't really care what his brain had to say.

Dave slowly took more and more of his cock in and was gently lapping at his cock and suckling the tip and swirling his tongue around and Kurt was still too shocked to argue or even think. He felt himself getting close and he groaned and tried to warn, David, but Dave just sucked harder and then Kurt was coming and Dave was swallowing and then he pulled off, tucked Kurt back into his pants and wiped his mouth.

He smiled at Kurt and stood up.

Kurt couldn't believe David just did that and didn't even fucking have the decency to tell him why or explain what the fuck that was for.

Dave started to clean up the pizza and turn off the lights and Kurt realized he was going to bed.

"Hold up."

Dave stopped and looked at Kurt.

"You don't get to just give me a blowjob and then walk away and start cleaning. What the hell was that for?"
"What?"

"The riveting game of chess, David. The fucking blowjob! What the hell?"
"I was just grateful for you, for everything you did for me today."

"So you repay me by giving me a blowjob? Cause I don't have any friends that do that for me."

"Well, maybe I was hoping we could be friends who did that."
"So you're saying, while we're playing this charade, you want to be friends with benefits?"

"Yeah. I mean, look at this way, Kurt. We know that we don't work out as boyfriends, but we do like each other, hell, we love each other as friends and we know that sex is always good and for right now, we're both alone. I think it's sounds fantastic. We both get laid, we can still meet other guys, and there's no weird feelings to hold us back anymore, right?"

Kurt sighed, this would be a fucking disaster, but he did want to be with David and this was the only way. Besides, the feelings were already there, and he had been pushing them down for this long already, what was another few months.

"Okay, so we're friends with benefits for the time being. I gotta say, I like being on the receiving end of those benefits."

Dave just smiled and finished gathering the trash up.

"Well, then, I guess we really can share the gigantic bed in the master bedroom. I'll race you to it."

Kurt made sure all the doors were locked and the dishwasher was started and then met his husband in bed.

After another fantastic blowjob and some heavy making out, Kurt fell asleep with his head on Dave's chest.

He could get used to that and he knew it wasn't a good idea, but his heart and body didn't agree and his body won out in the end, while his heart all the while kept aching knowing that his feelings for David were not reciprocated and probably wouldn't ever be, but sex was just sex.
