Chapter 30: Cake and Ice Cream

Once dinner was over, Kurt insisted on helping Mary clear the table, only to be waved out.

"You're our guest. Go on and join Sam and the others in the living room. Once I finish cleaning up, I'll bring out dessert."

Sam all but dragged Kurt out to the living room where Stevie and Stacey were playing a board game.

"Will you play with us?" Stacey asked, turning her big green eyes on Kurt.

Kurt turned to Sam, who shrugged.

"You might as well." He said. "She's not going to stop asking until you do."

"I'd love to join you," Kurt said, smiling as he sat down beside the little girl.

"You too, Sam!" Stevie said, jumping up and tugging his older brother to sit on the floor.

"Looks like I'm playing, too." Sam joked with Kurt.

The four played until Mary came in, balancing a tray in her hands.

Sam and Kurt both jumped up to help her, Kurt taking the tray and Sam distributing the bowl of cake and ice cream.

"Thank you boys." She turned to her older son. "Sam, why don't you and Kurt take your bowls to your room; get away from us for awhile?"

"You sure, Mom?" Said said, surprised his Mom would suggest such a thing.

"Get going, you two." Dwight said. "But no funny business."

"Okay, thanks." Sam led Kurt up to his room.

"They're so cute together." Mary gushed, once the two were out out earshot.


The boys stayed up in Sam's room, talking and stealing the occasional kiss. They talked about Kurt going to Dalton Academy the next day. Sam didn't want Kurt to go alone, but it would draw too much suspicion if more than one McKinley student showed up at the school.

An hour or so later, Kurt decided it was time for him to head home. Sam walked Kurt out to his car, and kissed him goodbye, making the kiss a long one.

Kurt got into the car and was about to start the engine when he remembered something.

"Is it I'll Make a Man Out of You?"

"What?" Sam asked.

"Your favorite song."

"Oh. No. Sorry." Sam smirked.

"For Gaga's sake." Kurt rolled his eyes.

"You're two guesses away from losing." Sam said, teasing his boyfriend.

"I'll figure it out."

"Don't count on it."

"See you tomorrow."

"I love you." Sam said.

"I love you, too." Kurt backed out of the driveway and made his way home.
