"Rachel wake up." Kurt pushed his roommate awake, telling her that the train had finally stopped at the station – they were finally back home.

"Oooohhh," Rachel murmured, stretching her arms. "These train seats aren't as bad as people think they are."

"Great to know," Kurt muttered, grabbing his luggage and heading for the exit. Rachel followed behind him, threading their way past fellow riders. "Look!" Kurt shouted, jumping up to see Burt, Carole, Leroy, and Hiram waiting for them at the terminal.

"Dads!" Rachel squealed, running in for a three person hug with Leroy and Hiram.

"My baby," Leroy sighed, running his hands through his daughter's hair.

"I'm not a baby," Rachel insisted, pulling away slightly.

"You'll always be our baby," Hiram reminded her, patting Leroy on the back.

Hiram nodded to Burt and Carole, anxiously greeting Kurt. "Are we still on for tomorrow?" he asked.

Carole nodded her head. "We figured we'd combine our efforts and have a joint Thanksgiving tomorrow at your house."

Rachel nodded her head in affirmation. "That sounds perfect. Do you mind if I come with you tomorrow to pick up Finn from the airport?"

"He'd be upset if you weren't there," Carole said with a laugh, hugging Rachel.

Rachel waved goodbye to the Hudson-Hummels, heading to the car with her dads.

Kurt turned to his dad. "I need to see Blaine after I unpack." Kurt started toward his father's truck. "I was kinda hoping that he would be here to greet me."

"He's been exhausted with student council," Carole said, climbing into the front passenger side. "Tell Blaine that Thanksgiving includes him too."

Kurt nodded his head as Burt pulled out of the lot. "I'm just glad to spend some time with you first," Burt acknowledged, patting his son on the back.

"You know I'd make time for you and Carole," Kurt reminded him, slightly hurt. "Rachel and I have five days here in Ohio."

"I know – I just miss you guys so much when you're gone."

"I've missed being here," Kurt said quietly, taking in the familiar sights and sounds. There were definite advantages to being back home.
