Blaine was sitting on a bench outside of Dalton. His hands were resting on his lap and his gaze was locked on them. He knew that Wes was going to kill him for skipping Warbler's practice and he wished he could see Kurt's audition. Kurt had told him that it would be easier to sing if Blaine were there as his support system, but it was beyond his power. Cooper had told him that he would pick him up and they would go to the clinic together. Blaine had tried to tell Sebastian about it, but he had been too afraid to even open his mouth or look straight into his eyes. He didn't like lying to him, but it was easier this way. Maybe he wasn't even pregnant.
The cab pulled over and Blaine saw his brother's face. Cooper got out of the cab and smiled slighty when he noticed Blaine. He smiled back and stood up. Cooper walked over and pulled Blaine into a tight hug. It was nice to be in his embrace. Sometimes his brother was an ass, but when Blaine needed his older, loving brother he was always there for him. Cooper pulled away and looked Blaine up and down. ''It's nice to see you again, Squirt.''
''You too." Blaine said watching closely Cooper's movements. He didn't seem to be mad at Blaine.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Blaine just shrugged. ''I just want to know if..." Blaine couldn't even say the words out loud.
Cooper just nodded his head and led him to the car.
Blaine couldn't stop shaking. He was sitting on an exam table and Cooper was next to him on a chair. He smiled sadly at his brother. Blaine didn't even try to smile back.
''If you are pregnant," Cooper said. "What do you want to do with the baby?"
''I've been thinking about it for awhile now." Blaine admitted. "And I have no idea. I mean, I don't know if I could...get rid my own child, but I don't think I'm ready to be a father.''
Cooper nodded his head. He opened his mouth, but then doctor Harrison entered the room. She was short, dark-haired woman with dark eyes. Blaine couldn't read her face. She was professional.
Blaine was surprised when she sat next to him and took his hand. ''Blaine, I've got your results and both are positive. You've got Carrier's syndrome that allows men to convince children and yes, you are pregnant." Blaine looked away. He didn't want her to see him cry. ''Your life is not over. You don't even have to keep this baby or even...give a birth to it. Your body is able ro carry children, but it doesn't make you any less man. It just happens. And it's risky, but for now you have nothing to worry about. Please, look at me, honey." He looked up at her. ''Misscarriages happen more often and you might feel pain later on. I know it seems scary, but I know many men that are now happy daddies. Don't be afraid." She smiled slighty at him. ''Do you have any questions?"
''How far along am I?" He asked quietly.
''Well, we have to make an ultrasound to find out." Dr. Harrison said and then turned to Cooper."What about you? Do you have any questions?"
Cooper just shook his head and crossed his arms over his chest.
Ten minutes later Blaine saw his baby for the first time. The moment he saw it, his mouth fall open and he was speechless. He knew that he had to wait a couple of weeks or even months to really see that there was a baby, but he could believe that at this screen there was tiny human being that was a part of him and part of Sebastian. He knew that he couldn't kill it.
''Blainey..." He heard Cooper's voice. He was looking at the screen as well with tears in his eyes.
Doctor Harrison moved the wand and smiled. "It looks like our peanut is six weeks old."
''Is the baby okay?" Cooper asked.
''Yes, everything looks fine.'' She helped Blaine clean up his stomach and then sat back down on an exam table next to him. "You have a couple of weeks to decide what to do with your baby. You can-''
''I can't kill it" He said simply.
''Okay. Then Congratulations.'' She said with a small smile upon her face. ''We have to talk about couple of things...''
One hour later Cooper and Blaine were at Blaine's favourite ice-cream shop. He was staring at his chocolate ice cream flatly. Cooper was slowly drinking his apple juice. Blaine looked around. It was late afternoon and there wasn't many people.
''It's very brave of you.'' Cooper said seriously. Blaine looked straight into his eyes. He could tell that Cooper was proud of him. ''I don't know what I would do."
Blaine lowered his gaze. "Maybe it's not bravery, maybe it is just stupidity. I will have to leave the Dalton if I decide to raise the baby. I don't even know what Sebastian would do if he finds out.''
''You mean, when he finds out. He needs to know. You can't do this alone." Cooper drank the rest of his juice and pulled out of his pocket his cell phone. "It's text from Monica. My girlfriend. I told her yesterday about your...situation. I hope it's okay? She's very nice."
''Yeah, that's fine. I don't care if she knows.'' Blaine just wanted to yell at his brother for telling his girlfriend, but it would be very rude and he was very grateful for what Cooper was doing for him. "As long as you're not running around Westerville screaming about it, it's okay" He tried to joke.
''You don't have to pretend that you're okay with all of this. You're only sixteen. You are allowed to be afraid."
''I'm just trying not to freak out. Sorry for trying to deal with all of this." Blaine said playing with his spoon.
Cooper sighed and run his hand through his hair. Blaine could see that he was tired. "You're telling your parents tonight. We can do this together."
''You don't have to do this.''
''I am your big brother. I don't want you to be alone. They can be really scary if they want to."
''I know.'' Blaine agreed. His father liked to remind him from time to time how much he had hoped, no, expected to have a perfect son. Perfect, straight son. ''Thank you, Cooper. For everything". he finally looked up at his brother to see a small smile on his face. "But I can't do this tonight. I want Sebastian to know first.''
''But you can't find it forever.'' Cooper said. ''Let's just pick him up now and do this right now.''
Blaine shook his head. ''No, I have to do this right.''
''Blaine,'' Cooper took a deep breath rubbing his face. ''Just don't wait too long, okay?"
''Okay.''
Cooper pulled out his wallet to pay for ice-cream. ''We have to go if you want to be in this fancy school of yours in time.''
