Ainsley's First Date

Considering what was happening that evening, Blaine's receptionist wasn't too surprised to find out why he'd moved his patient schedule around or agreed to see a few that Saturday. There wasn't much Blaine wouldn't do for his patients, but he always put his family first from the start once he started his own practice. And that became even more important when Sebastian, Thad, and Hunter finally decided to fulfill their dream of having their own firm. While it was stressful to start, it certainly got a bit easier once they were more established as they all knew how important their families were.

Family truly was at the heart of everything they all did and the older their children became, they all had to adapt more and more. And Blaine and Sebastian realized how thankful they were for the women in their lives the older Ainsley got as they certainly turned to them quite often. For a girl that no one would ever doubt for an instant that she was Blaine's daughter, she somehow had quite a bit of Sebastian's personality. Anytime she'd disagree with her Dads it became a debate that made them both proud as she learned early on she needed to have facts if she was going to change her Dads opinions.

So when she first brought up dating to them both, she knew she was going to have an uphill battle with them both, but especially with her Papa. Yet she knew she brought that on herself considering he ended up hearing her and Brianna gushing over Xander when he returned from Dalton the year prior. Hearing his baby girl wondering what sort of girl Xander was interested in, practically gave Sebastian a panic attack that Blaine was lucky to get under control rather quickly. Fortunately for Blaine, he was able to tell Sebastian that Jeff had essentially told his eldest to stay away from Ainsley and Brianna. Not only were they some of his best friends daughters, but they were also his sister's best friends. But being every bit his Dad, he pointed out how his Aunt Megan was married to Logan, and that Thad and Ally, were similar scenarios. Yet Jeff was quick to point out none of that happened till they were all in college. When Xander began to protest, Jeff had been quick to remind him the Dads he'd be dealing with so he dropped the subject rather quickly.

Yet now that they'd agreed to let Ainsley date, it was as though a flood-gate opened as she seemed to be asked out days later. While they could both understand why, as they both thought their daughter was beautiful; it was still a lot to take in. So much so, Sebastian seemed to be keeping himself even busier than usual. Even though they both knew she was growing up, it was still hard to process their little girl was going on a date.

When Ainsley came home from school that Friday, Blaine could hear her coming the instant the door was open as there was no doubt Madison and Brianna were with her. The girls were talking non-stop yet the instant they spotted Blaine working in the living room, they stopped mid thought. "Dad, what are you doing home?" Ainsley asked as she walked towards him to give him a kiss as Brianna and Madison said hello. "Shouldn't you be at the office?"

"I live here." Blaine said with a laugh after giving her a hug and a kiss, causing her to laugh and shake her head. "I came home after having lunch with your Aunt Rachel as there's nothing I need to be at the office for that I can do here in a more comfortable setting. Why do you ask?"

"Dad."

"Fine, maybe I'm a little anxious over the thought of you going on your first date."

"Where's Papa?"

"At work." Blaine then tucked a rogue strand of hair behind her ear. "You know this isn't easy on us."

"I know. And you should know, I told him he needs to come up here and meet you both before we go anywhere."

"He's scared." Madison said with a laugh.

"May I ask why?" Blaine said as he looked at the two who'd walked closer.

"He's friends with Will who threatened to kick his ass should he disrespect her in any way." Brianna replied causing Blaine to laugh. "What's so funny Uncle Blaine?"

"Just know that Will is every bit his Dad's son." Once he spoke, he noticed Ainsley looking up at him. "What?"

"Did you bake Dad?" When Blaine nodded, Ainsley smiled as did Brianna and Madison. "Feel free to help yourselves, just leave some for your siblings and Papa." The girls all agreed, before heading off to the kitchen, leaving their bags on the floor behind the couch. Just as he sat back down his phone went off with a text from Lexi wishing him luck as she knew how excited Ainsley was and a reminder to just breathe. Blaine was quick to reply with a thank you before grabbing his laptop to go over some notes. As he did so, he watched the girls come walking back with a plate full of brownies and something to drink. "Uh, didn't I say to leave some?"

"We did." Ainsley replied. "There is one for Devon, one for Juliette, and two each for you and Papa."

"Ainsley."

"I'm kidding Dad; there might be a couple more." Blaine only shook his head as they paused long enough to grab their bags before heading off for Ainsley's room. Knowing the girls were probably going to be joining her, Blaine had made a double-batch but made a point not to tell them as he was curious how many they'd leave.

No sooner did Blaine get back to work, did he hear music coming down the hall from Ainsley's room. While he easily could've gotten frustrated at the volume he couldn't as he and Sebastian lucked out that she had extremely good taste in music. Once the giggles started, Blaine couldn't help but wonder what was going on, yet whenever the three of them got together he knew he was probably better off not knowing. That was something Quinn, Santana, Brittany, and Rachel reminded him and Sebastian of constantly. And since they both had a good relationship with her, they really didn't have to worry about her doing things behind their back. She'd done that once, and she was quick to realize what a mistake it was as she'd never seen either of her Dads that angry before and vowed to never let that happen again.

While Blaine was trying to work as the girls figured out what Ainsley was going to wear, Sebastian was still at the office trying to keep his mind occupied. If there was ever a time he wished he hadn't just closed a case out, this was one of them. "You do realize, snapping at anyone that dares knock on your door isn't going to change the fact that Ainsley is going on a date tonight." Hunter stated as he walked into Sebastian's office. "She's a smart girl Seb, you and Blaine raised her right. Don't worry."

"It's not her I'm fucking worried about; it's the guy taking her out as I don't know him." Sebastian replied as he leaned back in his chair while Hunter took a seat.

"I don't know if this will make it any easier, but, he's one of Will's friends. He's actually a really good kid. Heck, even Quinn likes him as he's more down to Earth than a lot of the boys at that school."

"It doesn't."

"Seb."

"Hunter, it doesn't fucking matter as honestly, no one is good enough for my little girl!" The tone in which Sebastian responded, even caught Hunter off-guard. "Seriously."

"I get that, I truly do as I can't even imagine approving of anyone that wants to date Victoria when the time comes. Yet Quinn reminds me that we have to trust that we've raised them right. And trust me; my boys have been constantly reminded of how to properly treat a lady."

"I know." Sebastian said as he ran his fingers through his hair that was actually falling because he done that so often that day. "It's just…while she has quite a bit of my personality; especially my way with words as Blaine puts it. She's very much Blaine at her core."

"That is something I know all too well of my God-daughter Seb. Is she excited?"

"She's beyond excited." Sebastian replied and his expression softened as he did. "She convinced Blaine and I to let Gabrielle take her shopping so she could have a few more options as to what to wear tonight." When Hunter cocked his head Sebastian laughed. "Yea, I know. Like our daughter needed to add to her wardrobe. But Blaine and I realized if she was going to take anyone, we're glad it was Gabrielle as we know she'd look out for her. I would've preferred Jocelyn to do it, but she's studying like crazy. "

"Why Jocelyn over Gabrielle?"

"She's older." Sebastian replied. "Hell, you wouldn't believe the crap Cooper's been giving the both of us since he found out."

"Payback is a bitch my friend."

"Tell me about it. Who knew Cooper had it in him?"

"Blaine when he told you to back off way back when." Hunter said while trying not to laugh. "Yet, he was pretty bad himself. At least I know I can watch you guys all go through this before I have to."

"Not funny."

"Yes it is." Hunter said and as he did, he noticed Sebastian's expression change. "I take it we are no longer alone."

"No, as I was wondering if we're just calling it an early day today since it's Friday." Thad replied as he took a seat next to Hunter. "Or, am I interrupting something that I shouldn't be privy to?"

"You're not interrupting and by the way, your eldest is at my place."

"I know as tonight is the big night." Thad said and his expression got Hunter to laugh as Sebastian glared at him. "Come on man, don't you know as Ally and I have heard all about it. He's just too cute with his big blue eyes and perfect hair. Ally said if she didn't know better, it sounds as though Brianna was describing Cooper."

"You're going to give the man a heart attack Harwood." Hunter told him as Sebastian leaned back. "This isn't easy for him knowing his little girl is going out into the dating world. He's afraid they're going to date guys like we were back then."

"That's precisely why I'm concerned." Sebastian stated. "Yet Blaine pointed out you never did anything that had angry fathers coming after you."

"Our parents raised us better than that." Thad replied. "Heck, if I ever did something to a girl that had her Dad coming after me, I would've been worrying about my own Dad wanting to kill me as well. And think, if he tries anything, she's pretty well prepared since the girls all went to that self-defense class. Little will guys realize how well our girls can take care of themselves."

"True." Sebastian said. "She was so proud of herself after that class while she was reluctant to take it at first. But Lexi as well as her cousins told her how important it was to be able to take care of herself."

"They're right." Hunter told him. "Think, the girls all still take a refresher course once a year. Now, is Cooper going to swing by tonight like the two of you did before Jocelyn and Gabrielle's first dates?"

"No, as he's currently on set. Though, he did mention to Braeden should he feel the urge to swing by, he should. And knowing our nephew, he probably will." Sebastian then looked at the clock. "Would you two mind if I cut out of here a little early?"

"Go." Thad replied. "As I'm sure Blaine could use some moral support as well." Hunter nodded and then they both watched Sebastian look at his watch before smiling. "What?"

"If I leave now I can actually go and get Devon and Juliette from school."

Hunter and Thad decided to remain seated as in that moment, getting in Sebastian's way wouldn't be a good idea as he was moving rather quickly. Then with a quick wave of his hand he was out the door while still putting his coat on. "You do realize that's going to be you when Brianna goes on her first date." Hunter said as they walked out behind him before closing the door. "Same goes for Jeff in regards to Madison as you know it won't be long."

"Trust me, I know and have been reminded of it anytime I've mentioned to Ally how Seb's been acting. I'd much rather be in your shoes or Jeff's and had dealt with my son dating first. It would be more about reminding him to treat the girl right and not hoping she is." Thad said with a sigh.

Thanks to his train pulling up right as he reached the platform, Sebastian was able to make to the school to get Devon and Juliette before classes were dismissed for the day, but not by much. While he knew Devon wasn't fond of having to get Juliette at the end of the day, he did it with a smile. It wasn't that he didn't love his little sister; it's just that it often affected his social life. So when they came walking through the doors, he freaked when Juliette went running down the stairs as he had no clue why. Immediately Devon took off after her, not caring if he knocked into anyone with his bag and gear. He just needed to find out why she took off the way she did. Yet once he cleared the crowd, he spotted her in their Papa's arms.

Once he reached them, he looked up at Sebastian who now had Juliette's bag over his shoulder. "Please tell her she can't take off like that Papa." Devon told him before giving him a hug, happy to see him as it was rare for Sebastian to be the one to pick them up.

"I did." Sebastian replied as they began to walk. "The horror on your face was rather amusing though when she did." He continued before setting Juliette down as there was no way he was going to carry her the entire way. "But it's nice to see you were worried."

"You and Dad would've had my…you know, if I hadn't." Devon said with a look Sebastian knew all too well as Devon was every bit him, so much he didn't need his parents or Lexi reminding him of the fact along with Blaine. Though, his disposition was a bit softer and Sebastian knew that all had to do with Blaine's influence on him.

"He was going to say arse." Juliette said as she looked up at Sebastian whose hand she was holding causing him to raise an eyebrow.

"Where did you hear that?"

"You, Daddy, Uncle Coop."

"She's got you there Papa." Devon replied as Sebastian shook his head. "And I bet she's heard it from Ainsley as well."

"Yep!" Juliette said in agreement. "Why did you come and get us Papa?"

"That's a good question as it's usually Aunt Lexi or Dad that comes to meet us."

"Aren't I allowed to come and pick up my own kids?" Sebastian asked as they headed into the subway station. "I have done it before."

"I know, it's just rare with how busy you are."

"I wanted too." Sebastian replied before they got settled and he pulled Juliette onto his lap as the subway was a bit crowded. And in that moment, it was just what he needed knowing what he was going to be facing when he got home. But there was no way he was going to let the two of them know how nervous he truly was as it was hard enough for him to tell Blaine, though he did as there wasn't anything he didn't share with him unless it was a surprise for him.

Once they arrived home, Sebastian couldn't wait to wrap his arms tightly around Blaine. They'd barely opened the door and Juliette took off down the hall while Devon stored his gear out of the way for practice the next morning. When Sebastian and Devon reached the living room, they saw Juliette sitting on the arm of the chair Blaine was sitting in telling him all about her day. "Slowly down sweetheart." Blaine said as she was talking a mile a minute. "What are you doing home; shouldn't you be at Aunt Lexi's?"

"Papa picked us up." With that said, Blaine turned his head to see Sebastian and Devon standing on the other side of the couch. The instant they set eyes on each other, they both smiled.

"Why don't you and your brother go grab something to eat as I baked when I got home?"

"But I'm not done telling you about my day Daddy."

"That's Dad's way of saying he wants some time alone with Papa, Squirt." Devon said as he walked around to give Blaine a hug. The way she scrunched up her nose at the nickname Devon had adopted for her, reminded him so much of himself when Cooper called him that. "You can tell him all about it when we're done." He then gave Blaine a hug before tugging her hand to get her off the arm of the chair as Blaine stood.

"Thank you." Blaine said before kissing him on top of his head.

"Don't mention it." Once the two headed off for the kitchen, Blaine and Sebastian made their way towards one another and were quick to wrap their arms around each other. After sharing a rather lengthy kiss, Blaine looked up at his husband.

"I guess I'm not the only one having a hard time today." Blaine said softly as he could tell how uneasy Sebastian was feeling. "She's going to be okay Bas; we both knew this time was coming."

"It doesn't mean I have to like it." Sebastian replied before leaning his forehead against Blaine's. "She's our little girl B."

"Her dating isn't going to change that Bas, you know that."

"I know." Sebastian sighed. "Where'd the time go B?"

"I ask myself that quite often. Though, I began thinking it more once she started high school. It makes me feel even more for Jeff knowing Xander graduates at the end of this school year."

"That's true." Sebastian then leaned in for another kiss as in that moment; he wanted nothing more than to lose himself in Blaine. Much like the previous one, this one began to take on a life of its own as it was clearly something Blaine needed as well and soon Sebastian's hands slid down Blaine's back and grabbed ahold of his ass bringing him up against him.

"Uh, Dad….Papa there are others here besides us." At the sound of Ainsley's voice the two slowly broke the kiss and turned to face her and saw Madison and Brianna beside her. "You're lucky they're used to seeing you both so lovey-dovey after all these years."

"She's right." Madison replied. "Though, you're no different from my parents as sometimes I swear their worse than Xander and whoever he's dating at a given moment." That comment got a chuckle out of Blaine and Sebastian.

"And mine are the same." Brianna added. "Personally, I think it's sweet that you all still love each other so much. It gives us hope that true love really does exist."

"It does." Blaine said. "You just have to be willing to let it happen."

"Please tell me there is more to your outfit than what you're wearing." Sebastian said as he took a good look at what their daughter was wearing. He then looked at Blaine before releasing his arms and sliding one around Blaine's waist.

"And here I thought I was wearing too much." Ainsley replied which caused Sebastian's expression to change which she instantly noticed. "I'm only kidding Papa. We've yet to figure out what I'm wearing."

"Where is he taking you?"

"Dinner and then a movie, your typical cliché of a first date, but I'm certainly not complaining."

"What do the two of you think of him aside from the fact I've heard you think he's cute?" Once he spoke, Madison and Ainsley both looked at Brianna.

"It's not my fault my Dad hears me talk with my Mom. He's really nice Uncle Seb."

"Brianna's right, he is." Madison added. "Heck, he even asked Will if she was allowed to date before he asked her."

"That takes guts considering the way he looks after you three."

"That's what we thought as well Papa." Ainsley replied as she walked towards her Dads. "I think you're both going to like him."

"We hope so too." Blaine told her. "But what matters most is what you think of him. Just remember, if we don't, we'll let you know."

"Trust me; I never doubted that as you've never hesitated to tell me how you felt about things."

"What brought you girls out here since you've yet to decide on an outfit?" Sebastian asked calmly.

"I was curious as to when I needed to be home tonight as I didn't want to have this conversation in front of him." After she spoke, Sebastian leaned his head back and took a deep breath as Blaine tightened his hold around his waist. "So?"

"Would the two of you excuse the three of us for a few minutes?" Blaine asked and Madison and Brianna were quick to head back to Ainsley's room to give her some time with her Dads. "What time do you think would be reasonable?"

"Midnight."

"Not going to happen." Sebastian replied without hesitation. "Try again." Ainsley looked at Blaine who she could tell was in complete agreement with Sebastian even without having said a word.

"Eleven?" Blaine looked up at Sebastian who was clearly thinking. Even though they'd already discussed what time she should be home, they were both curious as to what she thought was reasonable. "And I'm talking in the door on the couch by eleven."

"You're only doing dinner and a movie, right?" Blaine asked.

"Yes, though one of his friends is having a party so we might stop by."

"If you do, you have to call or text us telling us." Sebastian told her which Blaine nodded in agreement with. "And we know that sometimes stopping somewhere means a change in plans so if that means no movie…"

"I'll call."

"Is his friend having the party his age or older?" Blaine asked.

"Older." The instant she responded, they both sighed. "Dad, Papa, I know what you're concerned about."

"My dear, you have no idea at the depth of concern your Dad and I have." Sebastian told her.

"Papa, I know and I'm sorry if you felt as though I was disrespecting yours or Dad's feeling. But you need to trust me that I'm not going to do anything stupid."

"We do trust you." Blaine told her as he reached for her hand. "It's just we know how things can be and well, we're sure they haven't change for the better since we were your age. Promise us something, alright?"

"What would you like me to promise?"

"That should you feel uncomfortable at any time, you won't hesitate to call us to come and get you."

"Done." Ainsley replied before taking ahold of Sebastian's hand in her other. "Anything you want me to promise Papa?"

"No, your Dad covered it pretty well. You know we want you to have fun and enjoy yourself, right?"

"I know. Just like I know you don't want me growing up too fast." With that, Sebastian pulled her into a hug between the two of them.

"When did you become so smart?"

"I've always been this way, I'm yours and Dad's daughter; I couldn't be anything else." Ainsley told them causing them both to smile. "Now, I need to go and figure out what I'm wearing so I'm not rushing around at the last minute." She then felt them each kiss her on the top of her head. "I love you both, so much."

"We love you too Princess."

Once they let go of her, they watched as she headed back down the hall so she could start getting ready. "She's right Bas, she's every bit our daughter." Blaine said before resting his head on Sebastian's chest. "And while she's sweet and loving, she's nobody's fool. We can only wonder if he knows what he's getting into as well."

"Do you know his name B?" Sebastian asked as he guided Blaine towards the couch knowing Devon and Juliette would be returning soon.

"His name is Cameron." Blaine replied before sitting down and leaning back against Sebastian who'd tossed his suit jacket over the chair. "After the girls mentioned he was a friend of Will's, I might've called Quinn to ask if she knew him."

"Hunter mentioned he knew him as well and said that he's a good kid."

"Quinn said something similar. So, I guess that's a good thing as both of them are pretty excellent judges of character."

"They certainly are, plus they're quite protective of our girl." Sebastian replied. "Once she leaves, what do you say we go out to dinner as well?"

"Is that for our sake, or so Devon and Juliette don't wonder what's wrong with us tonight?"

"A little bit of both."

"That sounds good to me." It was only a few minutes later when Devon and Juliette returned to the living room and found their Dads curled up on the couch. "I hope you two didn't finish up whatever brownies the girls left as we're going out to dinner tonight." While he spoke, Sebastian leaned over his shoulder. "Don't worry; I hid some away for you." Blaine then turned his head to give him a kiss. "So?"

"We each only had one." Devon replied. "Where are we going?"

"Where would you like to go?" Sebastian asked as he looked between the two.

"Shouldn't we ask Ainsley too?" Juliette said as she looked at them.

"Your sister won't be joining us as she's going out on a date tonight."

"Who would want to date her?" Devon replied.

"Hey, any guy would be lucky to date your sister!"

"Sorry Papa."

"So am I as I shouldn't have snapped." Sebastian replied as Blaine took his hand. "Why don't the two of you go change so you're ready to leave once your sister does?" Juliette was quick to reply before heading off to her room leaving Devon with their Dads. "Yes Devon?"

"Nothing." He then got up and headed for his room leaving Blaine and Sebastian alone once again.

"You know he meant nothing by it." Blaine said softly. "He's just a kid Bas."

"I know B and that's why I feel bad for snapping at him. I remember all too well wondering why guys would want to date Lexi and we weren't around each other all the time back then. To me, she was my sister and I didn't look at her beyond that."

"Unlike once you were older and saw what a beautiful, young woman she'd turned into."

"Precisely."

"What do you say to me helping you out of that suit as I doubt you're going to need it if we're letting Devon and Juliette decide where we're going?"

"I'd be more receptive if we could do something once you have me out of these clothes."

"There is no time right now for that Bas, but I think we might be able to make time for that later this evening." Blaine told him as he sat up to look at him. "Now get up so I can get you out of these clothes."

"Lead the way sexy!" When Blaine looked back over his shoulder at him, Sebastian growled softly earning him a smirk from Blaine. Even after all these years their love and desire for one another hadn't changed. They just had to be a bit more aware of everything that was going on around them. Once they closed their bedroom door behind them, Blaine wasn't too surprised when Sebastian pushed him back onto their bed and kissed him. "How much longer till our extended weekend getaway?"

"Thirteen days." Blaine replied as he grabbed ahold of Sebastian's tie before pulling him in for another kiss. "And once we're there we can remind each other of all the different things we both enjoy."

"You mean like the fact that I'll get to see that gorgeous ass of yours sans clothing most of the weekend."

"That's certainly one of the things." Blaine told him. "And while I would love nothing more than to kiss you the rest of the night, we need to be responsible parents. Not to mention Brianna and Madison are here and you know Thad and Jeff would laugh their asses off should we appear all flushed in front of the girls."

"Alright." Sebastian said before kissing him once more prior to rolling off of him. "Now undress me."

Undressing Sebastian certainly wasn't easy as Blaine loved him so much and seeing him in a state of undress certainly had an effect on him. But soon he was tossing Sebastian a pair of pants and a shirt to put on so they could head back out into the living room. "I love you Bas."

"I love you too B. Now let's go put the fear of god into the young man who thinks he's good enough for our daughter." When Blaine laughed, Sebastian looked at him while putting his pants on. "You do know I'm not going to be all sweet to the kid, right?"

"I wouldn't expect you to." Blaine told him. "But I expect you to be polite."

"I will." Sebastian then gave him a kiss before pulling his shirt over his head. "Let's do this."

When they walked into the living room, they saw Devon playing video games while Juliette practiced piano. Seeing the two of them like this caused them to look at each other. But they didn't get a chance to think about it as Brianna and Madison came walking into the room. "I take this to mean she's ready?" Blaine asked as he looked at them.

"She is." Brianna replied. "And while we'd love to stick around, we're going to go as we don't want to make her any more nervous than she already is."

"I have no doubt the two of you will hear all about it once it's over." Blaine told them.

"You know us well." Madison replied. "We'll see you Sunday!'

"We'll see you then girls. Bye!"

Once the two of them left, Sebastian looked at Blaine. "Do you want to go to her or wait for him to arrive?" Sebastian asked.

"I'll wait as we don't need him on edge before he sees her." Blaine told him. "And you my dear, can be pretty intimidating." Sebastian then leaned down to give Blaine a kiss. "Take care of her Bas."

"I always do." After getting a kiss from Blaine, Sebastian headed towards Ainsley's room. Once he reached the doorway, he was surprised to find it open, yet he still knocked when he saw her sitting in front of her vanity. "May I come in?" When she looked back at him and nodded, Sebastian saw a look in her eyes he knew all too well as Blaine got it as well. Brianna and Madison weren't kidding when they said she was nervous. "And how is my Princess doing?" Sebastian asked as he sat down on the bottom of her bed.

"Confused." She replied as she turned to look at him. "Is it normal to be so nervous about something you want to do?"

"It is when it's something new." Sebastian told her. "This is an entirely new experience for you Ains. Hell, even with as well as I knew your Dad, I was nervous before our first real date."

"You, nervous?"

"Yes and you can asked everyone as they'll confirm it, especially Jeff and Nick as they were quite amused by it." Sebastian replied. "The nerves come from wanting to make a good impression. I take it you know Cameron pretty well and he's not just some random guy."

"I do."

"That should make it easier as you'll have a good idea of what each other is interested in. And know, he's probably just as nervous. Knowing what Will has said to him, I have a feeling he's been given a heads up in regards to me and your Dad."

"He has. Will told him, you're a lot like Uncle Hunter and while Dad looks sweet he's not to be underestimated."

"At least he's not going into this blind as those are pretty good descriptions of us." Sebastian said causing her to laugh. "Wouldn't you agree?"

"I do." As she replied, her phone pinged on her vanity and Sebastian watched her take a deep breath. "He's in the lobby." She said before standing up. "Do I look alright Papa?"

"You look beautiful." Sebastian replied as he stood and she looked at him. "I'm not just saying that, though you know I always think you look beautiful, even after you've come back from a spin class." When she playfully slapped him on the arm, Sebastian could only smile. Looking at her in that moment was a quick reminder she wasn't a little girl anymore, she was now a young lady heading out on her first date. "Remember, should you need us…"

"I'll call." Ainsley replied as she grabbed her purse off the back of the chair. "Time for you and Dad to meet Cameron." Just as she was finishing up, the doorbell rang and Sebastian took her hand.

"I guess so." Sebastian said before they headed towards the living room where they knew he'd be waiting.

When they made their appearance, they were surprised to see Blaine leaning on the back of the couch. But it was only a few moments later Cameron appeared next to Devon at the end of the hall way. "Hi." Cameron said softly as he looked at Ainsley while Sebastian walked towards Blaine. "You look great."

"Thank you." Ainsley replied and just as she was about to make introductions, Cameron extended his hand to her Dads.

"Mr. and Mr. Anderson-Smythe, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"It's actually doctor and mister." Sebastian corrected before shaking his hand. "But you're forgiven." While he spoke, he smirked knowing Blaine and Ainsley were both looking at him.

"It's nice to meet you as well Cameron." Blaine said as he shook his hand as well and while he did, Sebastian slid his arm around his waist. "Where are the two of you going tonight?"

"Dinner and then a movie of Ainsley's choosing." Hearing Cameron's response, Devon laughed loudly earning him a look from both Blaine and Sebastian.

"Enough Devon." Blaine told him. "This conversation doesn't concern you." He said as he looked his way, before turning his attention back to Ainsley and her date. "I'm sorry about that."

"It's okay, I have a little brother as well who was doing nothing but teasing me about going out on a date tonight. Don't you have a little sister too Ainsley?" He said as he looked at her as they'd gradually moved closer to each other.

"She's probably hiding out in the dining room, she's pretty shy." Ainsley replied and as she did, Juliette poked her head out from around the corner. "Come here, he doesn't bite." When she spoke, Blaine looked at Sebastian hoping one of his trademark responses wouldn't come out of his mouth. "Come here." Juliette then slowly made her way into the living room, and quickly settled in next to her Dad. "Are you going to say hi Juliette?"

"Hi." She replied as she looked at the boy next to her sister.

"Hi Juliette." After he spoke, he slid his hand into Ainsley's. "We should probably get going otherwise our movie choices will be limited."

"Okay. Dad, Papa, we're going to get going."

"Alright." Blaine replied as Sebastian squeezed his hand against his waist. "Don't be late, okay."

"I won't be. I love you."

"We love you too. Have fun!"

"Bye!" Juliette said as she looked at them and Devon said goodbye from his spot on the couch. Once they headed down the hall, Blaine looked up at Sebastian who was clearly holding on by a thread like he was. "Are we going too Daddy? Papa?"

"In a few minutes." Sebastian replied before taking a deep breath. "Did we really just send her off on her first date B?"

"We most certainly did Bas." Blaine then leaned his head against Sebastian and soon felt his lips press a kiss to the top of his head. "Thank you for behaving."

"As tempting as it was to grill him, there is no way I'd embarrass her with as nervous as she was feeling. But it didn't take long after they saw each other for her to relax."

"I noticed that too. Why don't you two tell us what you want to do so Papa and I have an idea of what we're in for?"

"We want to go out for pizza and then go cosmic bowling." Devon replied as he turned around so he was leaning on the back of the couch, looking at his Dads and sister. "Right Juliette?"

"Yes, and I want ice cream too." Juliette added. "After bowling of course."

"I think we can accomplish all that." Sebastian replied. "So, go get your coats so we can get this show on the road!" That was all he needed to say for the two of them to take off, giving him a few minutes with Blaine. "Please keep me grounded tonight Doc as you know I'm going to worry."

"Only if you agree to do the same for me."

"Deal."

Taking Devon and Juliette out was probably the best thing they could've done as it was easy to focus on them while out, than what was going on with Ainsley. That's not saying they didn't each check their phones on occasion, as they did, but it wasn't their focus. By the time they headed home that evening they knew they'd had a full evening as Sebastian was carrying Juliette who'd fallen asleep on the subway. Once they made their way inside their home, Sebastian headed towards Juliette's room to put her to bed while Devon followed Blaine into the living room. "You should probably get ready for bed as well." Blaine said as he glanced at Devon who was trying not to let on how tired he was.

"You and Papa always let me stay up late on Fridays."

"I didn't say you needed to go to bed, just to get ready for it." Blaine told him as Devon leaned against him while yawning. "Did you have fun tonight?" Devon nodded bringing a smile to Blaine's face. "I'm happy to hear it." By the time Sebastian returned to the living room, Devon was asleep on Blaine. When Sebastian looked at the two of them, Blaine smiled. "He's not tired."

"Right." Sebastian replied before leaning in to give Blaine a kiss. "I'm not surprised considering everything we did tonight. And so you know, Juliette went right back to sleep after changing."

"Good. I told this one to go change, but…you can see how that went over."

"That's because he didn't want to let on how tired he. Remember, he's not a little kid anymore." Sebastian said with a wink. "Help me get him up so I can get him to bed."

"Bas."

"I'll do it B since I'm still standing." Carefully, Blaine woke Devon so that Sebastian could help him to his room as he was too big for either of them to carry. Throughout the walk, Devon told Sebastian he wasn't tired to which Sebastian just agreed knowing it was pointless to disagree since he was essentially sleep walking. By the time Sebastian returned, Blaine had two glasses of wine ready on the table. "How'd you know?"

"I figured you needed it as much as I do." Blaine replied as Sebastian sat down beside him. "Is he asleep?"

"Soon, he was going to "read", but you and I know we're going to have to remove whatever book he attempted." Sebastian told him as Blaine handed him his wine glass. "We only have to make it a little longer, right B?"

"Yes. You remember that I've got a few patients to see in the morning, correct?"

"I do. Yet with as late as we kept those two out, and then Ainsley, I have a feeling I'll have a quiet morning to get work done." The two started to talk about what they were going to do once Blaine got home the next day and before they knew it, they heard the front door closing. That sound caused them both to tense slightly. Sebastian lifted his arm and was pleased to see she was actually home early which was a good sign in their book.

They each had to hide a smile when they heard Ainsley gasp upon spotting them on the couch. "Dad. Papa. What are you doing up?" She asked as she walked around the couch.

"It's not that late young lady." Blaine told her with a smile, before setting his wine glass on the table. "Did you have fun?"

"I think that smile she's sporting says she did." Sebastian chimed in with before she had a chance. "So, am I correct?"

"I…I had a wonderful time." Ainsley told them. "And you'll be pleased to know, he was a perfect gentleman." While she spoke, she sat down on the arm of the chair beside them.

"That's something we're happy to hear." Blaine replied. "Are you going to see him again?"

"Yes. He said he'll give me a call some time tomorrow." Once she replied, they both saw her playing with the hem of her shirt.

"Go call Madison and Brianna." Sebastian told her. "You can tell us the rest in the morning."

"Are you sure Papa?"

"Positive, as you look like you're about to burst at the seams." The next thing Sebastian felt was her kiss him on the cheek. "You're welcome!"

"Thank you Papa!" Ainsley then looked at Blaine. "Are you okay with this Dad?"

"Yes, go gush to the girls about your date." He'd barely finished when she kissed him on the cheek as well.

"Thank you! I love you both…so much!" And with that, Ainsley disappeared from the living room.

"I don't know if I'm ready for this Bas." Blaine said as he leaned his head against Sebastian's shoulder.

"I'm not sure I am either B, but it is now upon us." Sebastian then pressed a kiss to Blaine's head. "We'll get through this like everything else, together."
