Kurt watched as his husband paced back and forth before him, the sound of his steps echoing through the mostly empty waiting room. Kurt glanced at Rachel to check she still had her headphones in before reaching out to grab Blaine's arm and pull him onto the chair beside him. "Whats wrong?" Kurt inquired with a knowing look.
"What? Nothing," blurted Blaine rather unconvincingly.
"Darling we both know you only pace when you're worried or stressed about something. So what's up?" Blaine sighed and leaned forward placing his head in his hands. He looked pale and his hair was mussed from running his fingers through it.
"What if something goes wrong and we can't have a kid?" Blaine spoke slowly and cautiously as if he were afraid to voice his fears aloud. "What if Rachel can't have children for some reason? Or she miscarries?"
"Oh honey," Kurt muttered sadly. "It's all going to work out. They'll run the tests on Rachel. Absolute worst case we can find another surrogate. As for once she's pregnant she'll be monitored to make sure the child's healthy."
Blaine still looked uneasy. He looked down before returning his gaze to his husbands eyes. "What if..." Blaine trailed off and began to fidget with his bowtie. "What if they won't allow us to do this since they are gay?"
"We already checked on that, Blaine," Kurt looked surprised. "The agency we're using are completley open to same-sex couples."
"I know, its just my whole life people have told me I' d never have a proper family. That I'd never have kids. And what are my parents going to think? They've only just come to terms with us. What if our kid gets picked on because they have two dads? What if they get called all that awful stuff we've been called?"
Kurt's face was scrunched in agony and tears welled in the corners of his eyes. "Blaine, please. It'll be okay." Blaine nodded and leant his head on the other man's shoulder. "You know how I know? Because we have eachother. And if someone tries to mess with our kid Blaine, we'll handle that. Or more likely Burt will march up with his shotgun and threaten to shoot everyone."
This was enough to make Blaine laugh and he reached for his husband with gratitude. "I know, I'm just being silly." He pressed a kiss on Kurt's temple, "I love you."
"I love you too, dear."
Footsteps were heard coming down the hallway and all three of their little party looked up. A doctor stepped into the room and smiled at them. She looked down at her clipboard before addressing them, "You must be Mr. Hummel-Anderson, Mr. Hummel-Anderson and Mrs. Berry." They all nodded and she grinned, "Great. Follow me then please."
The group moved down a narrow hallway and into a small office. The doctor sat behind a large desk and the others all drew up chairs on the other side. "I'm Doctor Anne Montgomery, call me Anne. I'll be responsible for helping you through this process." She offered her hand and Blaine shook it firmly, then Kurt, then Rachel. "So I believe you want to use Mrs. Berry as your surrogate, Mr. and Mr. Hummel-Anderson?"
"Please, call me Blaine. And yes, Kurt and I hope to use Rachel."
"Based on her age and health that should be fine but we still need to run tests. We'll have to arrange for a pap smear, a physical, blood work, a hysteroscopy and a saline sonogram. Depending in the results we might also run a few more tests. Does this sound fine to everyone?" Rachel gulped and paled slightly although she nodded along with both men. "Good. Rachel, are you free to come in this Saturday to run some of the tests and discuss any further ones required?"
"I should be," Rachel smiled. She was so happy she was able to do this for her oldest and dearest friends.
"Have you decided whose going to be the biological father yet?" Kurt and Blaine turned to stare blankly at one another. Neither had even thought of the matter. Both of them sat there frozen; they had no idea how to respond.
Doctor Anne chuckled appreciatively, "It's okay not to know yet. You will have to decide before the legal papers are drawn up though and you may have to undergo a few tests but nothing to complicated. Do any of you have any questions before we finish this appointment?"
Rachel and Blaine shook their heads but Kurt nodded slowly, "If all goes well how long would it be till our child is born."
Anne grinned at the couple before her, "Well the tests take about three months and the pregnancy around nine so... A little over a year." A year. In just one year from now Kurt and Blaine Hummel-Anderson were going to be parents.

Help! I don't know whether Blaine or Kurt should be the biological father. I want a kid with Blaine's crazy hair but also Kurt's ridiculously pale skin!
