Now here is a shorter version of this chapter. It is about 6 or 7 pages shorter, but I think its better. Don't worry, nothing important is cut out. More revisions to come. Enjoy

Throughout the next few weeks, Blaine and Kurt spent their days at the hospital visiting the babies as much they could. Everyday they would show signs of improvement. All of them would steadily gain weight and several tubes and wires would be removed.

Two weeks after the babies were born, Kurt and Blaine were allowed to touch them. Since the babies were in isolates, Blaine and Kurt had to place their hands through the windows. Each baby had different reactions to being touched. Most of them felt scared to the strange touch, but soon relaxed.

Both dads were excited to feel the soft skin of each baby. Unfortunately they couldn't touch little Mackenzie because she was still in the critical stage. She wasn't gaining weight as quickly as her brothers and sisters and still had the breathing tube in. The doctors had predicted that she would probably be the last to go home.

A few weeks after Kurt and Blaine had their first experience interacting with the other five, the doctor said they could hold the babies skin-to-skin. Since Cory had been the biggest at birth and he had been gaining the most weight, he could be first to be held.

Blaine and Kurt were arguing over who would hold him first. It all came down to a coin toss, which Blaine won. He sat in comfortable rocking chair, while one of the nurses gently took Cory out of his isolate. She then placed him in Blaine's waiting arms. Once Cory felt the warmth against Blaine's chest, he snuggled closer to him. Blaine felt his heart melt as he got to hold his first born son.

While Blaine was rocking Cory, Kurt pressed a gentle kiss on the sleeping baby's head.

"Kurt?" one of the nurses called, making him turned around.

"Elizabeth has also been gaining weight. Would you like to hold her?" she asked.

Kurt smiled and nodded his head enthusiastically.

The nurse smiled and went over to Elizabeth. When she picked her up, Kurt couldn't help but smile when he heard the little whining noises. He sat in the rocking chair next to Blaine as the nurse handed him the baby girl. Kurt started rocking her gently, pressing a soft kiss on her head.

Blaine had fallen in love with holding his little boy. Kurt couldn't help but smile at the scene in front of him. He leaned his head back and as he continued to rock his little girl to sleep.

Kurt wasn't sure how long he was asleep for, but he awoke to someone shaking his shoulder. He opened his eyes suddenly and was very surprised to see the person in front of him.

"Hey Kurt." said Lucy.

"Lucy?" he whispered.

Lucy smiled.

"What are you doing here?" Kurt asked.

"I hope it's ok, but I wanted to see my nieces and nephews." she admitted.

Kurt smiled and nodded. "Of course it's ok."

Lucy smiled back. "Who's that you got there?"

Kurt looked down at the little bundle lying on his chest. "Elizabeth. Blaine's holding Cory. They were the first two that had gained enough weight and we're able to be taken off most of their monitors." he explained.

"Really? Wow. It sounds like they're doing really well." Lucy exclaimed.

Kurt nodded. "Well, not everyone."

"What do mean? Who's not-" Lucy started, then realized who Kurt was talking about. "Mackenzie?"

Kurt nodded sadly. "She still has her breathing tube and isn't gaining much weight as the rest of them. We haven't been able to touch her yet."

Lucy turned towards Mackenzie. "Is it ok if I check on her?"

"Of course you can." Kurt said simply.

Lucy walked to the back corner, where Mackenzie's isolate was. There was a fluffy pink blanket draped over it, keeping most of the light off of her. Lucy looked through the window and began talking to her.

"Hey Mackenzie. It's me, auntie Lucy. You have to start eating more and gaining weight. I know your daddies really want to hold you. Also you have to get that tube out, so you need to start breathing on your own. I know it's hard, but you need to try." Lucy paused and wiped her eyes. "I love you so much. I wish you could have stayed in longer and I'm sorry you were in the back, but I'm sure you're going to make up for it by torturing you brothers and sisters." Lucy laughed, looked at the other isolates and where Kurt and Blaine were still sitting.

"Ok Mackenzie. I think that's all the auntie wisdom I have for now. But when I come up with more, you will be the first one to hear it. You have my word." Lucy blew a kiss and started to walk out.

"Lucy." said Blaine as he had handed Cory back to the nurse, who placed him back in his isolate.

Lucy turned around.

"That was beautiful." Blaine admitted.

Lucy smiled and shrugged it off as if it was nothing. "I just felt like she needs to know what do to get out of here."

Blaine laughed. "I'm really glad you decided to come."

Lucy nodded. "Yeah, well don't expect to see me here everyday. I only make special trips for ones that need my auntie wisdom."

Blaine laughed. "Oh, is that what it is?"

Lucy shook her head. "I'll see you later Blaine." she turned towards the door again.

"Wait." he said quickly.

"What now?" Lucy asked, annoyed.

"Do you want to, maybe hold a baby?" Blaine asked cautiously.

Lucy hesitated. "I don't know Blaine."

Blaine nodded, in understanding. "I just thought I'd ask." he smiled and turned around.
