The next morning when Emily woke up she was startled to find Macy sitting cross legged at the end of the bed watching her. "Are you awake?" Macy asked. "Yes what time is it?" Emily asked. Macy scrutinized the clock on the bedside table and Emily looked over at it. "Can you tell time?" Emily asked. "Yes, it says 9 2 7" Macy said. "Very good, it's 9:27 "Emily said. "Knock, knock. Macy, I told you not to wake her up" Blaine said entering the room. "She didn't" Emily said pulling herself up into a sitting position. "Good morning, I hope you're hungry" Kurt entered the room carrying a tray. Blaine watched the color leave Emily's face.
The way she vaulted out of bed and ran for the bathroom would have been quite impressive had Blaine and Kurt not been so worried for her. "What's wrong? Is she sick?" Macy asked confused. "Come on Macy, let's get you ready for school" Kurt said. Blaine took that as his hint to help Emily. Kurt had never been good with people throwing up around him. Blaine entered the bathroom as Macy and Kurt were leaving. He bent down next to Emily and held her hair while rubbing her back. A minute later she was standing up and began brushing her teeth.
"You don't have to witness me throwing up you know" Emily said. "Kurt and I want to be a part of this pregnancy. Neither of us will ever be pregnant and we want to go through this experience with you. Whatever we can do to ease your suffering or help we'll do" Blaine said. "Thanks" Emily said softly. "No problem, now I believe that wonderful husband of mine made you breakfast. Think you can keep something down?" Blaine asked. "It's worth a shot I guess" Emily said. She sat down on her bed as Blaine brought the tray over from her dresser. She ate a few bites of egg, a piece of toast, two pieces of bacon and a small pancake before declaring herself done.
"You sure?" Blaine asked not convinced. "I really don't want to push it" Emily said. Blaine nodded in understanding. "We have to leave in 10 minutes to get Macy to school. Do you want to come with us?" Blaine asked. "Sure, I can be ready by then" Emily said. "Alright" Blaine smiled and left the room with the tray. Emily pulled her duffel bag onto the bed and dumped the contents out. Quickly she pulled on a pair of stretchy skinny jeans, a purple tank top and a dark blue short sleeved baby doll jacket. She tied it closed with the deep gold ribbon and sat down to pull on a pair of black socks. She picked up her comb and looked in the mirror over the vanity as she ran it through her hair lightly not wanting to disrupt the natural curl her hair had. She pulled her white sneakers on and opened the drawer of the bedside table. She pulled her slim wallet out and slid it into her back pocket before stuffing the rest of the clothes back into the back and heading downstairs.
"Wow, that was fast" Blaine said when she entered the entrance hall. "I don't have a lot of wardrobe choices. When I was packing last night I just emptied a few drawers of my busted dresser into my duffel and called it good. I probably should have just stayed there last night, he couldn't officially evict me until noon today but I was too freaked out" Emily said. "Are you coming too Emily?" Macy asked as she jumped off the last step. "Yup" Emily smiled. Blaine opened the coat closet and pulled Macy's coat out. Kurt took it from him and helped Macy into it even as Blaine held Emily's coat for her. "Thanks" Emily said, a slight blush tinging her cheeks. Blaine repeated the action with Kurt before pulling his own coat on. Macy was the first one out of the door followed by Blaine and then Emily with Kurt bringing up the rear.
Emily watched him lock the door before he joined them at the bottom of the steps. "The school is about a 5 minute walk from here. We try and walk when we drop her off and when we pick her up but sometimes there's no time or it's raining too hard" Blaine told Emily as they headed down the curved driveway. When they reached the gate Blaine lifted Macy up and she pressed a green button. The gate slid open and then closed behind them. Macy instantly grabbed Emily's hand as they started walking. Within minutes they had reached a set of schools. "This is the preschool, that's the elementary school" Kurt said as they turned to walk toward the doors.
Blaine reached the doors first and held the door open for Macy, Emily and Kurt. "Come on Emily, I want to show you my classroom" Macy said excitedly. Emily followed the happy girl down the hall. "Good morning Macy" an older woman said. "Good morning Mrs. Milovitch" Macy said as she started to pull her coat off. "Mr. Hummel-Anderson, Mr. Hummel-Anderson" the woman greeted warmly. "Mrs. Milovitch" Kurt smiled in greeting. "Mrs. Milovitch this is Emily Oliver. She's Macy's birth mother. She might occasionally be dropping Macy off or picking her up" Blaine said. "How wonderful, just make sure you inform the office" she smiled kindly. "Alright Macy, we'll see you this afternoon ok" Kurt said. "Ok! Bye papa, daddy, Emily" Macy said and hurried off to play. On the way out of the school the three adults stopped off in the office and added Emily to various forms authorizing her to pick Macy up from school and retrieve her when she was sick as well as excusing an absence.
When they got back to the house there was no point in hanging around for 20 minutes so Blaine pulled the car out of the garage and they headed into the city. They reached the doctors office half an hour early. "Hi, I've got an appointment at 11" Emily said to the nurse. "Name?" she asked with a smile. "Emily Oliver" Emily said. "Alright, we'll try to get you in before 11 but there are no guarantee's" she said with another smile. "No problem" Emily smiled back and left the window. Just as they were about to sit down in the waiting room Emily rushed over to the bathroom. She pulled the door open and allowed it to close behind her.
"Excuse me, could we possibly get a cup of water?" Kurt asked the nurse at the desk. "Sure" she smiled. Kurt stepped up to the bathroom door with the cup of water and knocked. Emily opened it a minute later. "Feeling better?" Kurt asked. "Yes and no. I was hoping if I tried to eat a light breakfast I would keep it" Emily said and accepted the water. She sat down and leaned her head back against the wall. "How long does morning sickness last?" Blaine asked. "It usually stops right around the second trimester" Emily said. "But you're already in the second trimester" Kurt said. "I know." "When did it stop with Macy?" Blaine asked. "Right before the second trimester. I was kind of hoping this baby would cooperate but no, apparently it doesn't like my food choices. There's is no pleasing this kid" she smiled.
"Must be Kurt's then. He's a notoriously picky eater" Blaine teased. "Emily Oliver?" a nurse called before Kurt could retort. "Here" Emily said and stood up. Blaine and Kurt stood to follow her. "You are?" the nurse asked scrutinizing them. "They're the dads" Emily said. "Oh, wonderful. You'll have to wait here for a few minutes though. We need to draw some blood and then when we're ready I'll come get you so that you can see the ultrasound" the nurse said. "Thank-you" Blaine said. He and Kurt took their seats again to wait. "I'm so excited" Kurt took Blaine's hand. "Me too. When do you think we'll be able to find out the gender?" Blaine asked. "Probably another few months. Do you think we should?" Kurt asked.
"Well we didn't find out with Macy and it made everything 10 times harder. We didn't know what color to paint the nursery or what colors of clothes we should buy..." "Speaking of we still have some of those little boy clothes that I made just in case" Kurt said. "I think Emily needs to be a part of this decision too. I say we weigh the pros and cons" Blaine said. "Always the logical one. I agree" Kurt said. "And names, we need to start thinking about names" Blaine said. "What do you think of Milo for a boy?" Kurt asked. " Milo? I think it sounds like a dog's name" Blaine said. "Oh, yeah it does kind of doesn't it. What about Angus?" "Really Kurt? Do you want our child to be named after meat? We're not in Australia!"
"Well I don't see you coming up with names" Kurt said. "We've still got 5 months and we don't even know what it is yet" Blaine said. "We're ready for you" the nurse was back. Blaine and Kurt were up in an instant with their jackets slung over their arms. The nurse led them into the back hall way and into a room. She closed the door behind them and they saw Emily laying on the table. Kurt put his coat on the chair and Blaine followed his lead before they stood next to her. "Are you ready to see baby?" the tech asked. "Let's do this" Emily smiled. She raised her shirt up. She took Kurt's hand with her left and cross her right arm over her chest to take Blaine 's. The tech smiled and squirted some blue goo onto her stomach. Emily sucked in a breath.
"What?" Kurt asked. "It's cold" she said. "Sorry about that" the tech smiled "Here we go. This is the womb" the tech pointed out. Kurt and Blaine couldn't really see what she was talking about but they trusted she knew what she was doing. "Hmm" she said after a minute. "What?" Blaine asked "What's wrong?" "Nothing per say but I'm hearing two heart beats." "Our baby has two hearts?" Kurt asked in a panic. "No" the tech laughed. "Really Kurt? Two heart beats means two babies. Twins" Emily said. "Twins" Blaine wrapped his free arm around Kurt, small tears appearing in his eyes. "Wait a second, I have to retract that" the tech said looking at the screen.
"What's wrong?" Emily asked. "Once again nothing. I was wrong about two heart beats." "So only one?" Kurt asked. "Nope, three!" "Three? Triplets?" Emily asked. "Yup, and here they are. Attempting to play hide and seek." "I can't believe I'm barely showing" Emily said. "Is this your first pregnancy?" the tech asked. "Second" Emily said. "Surrogacy?" the tech asked. "Yes." "That would explain the multiples. It looks like you're carrying pretty far back which means the baby's are taking more room toward your back. That will probably change in the next month as they grow. Don't be surprised if you suddenly seem a lot bigger." "Oh joy" Emily muttered. "Can you tell the genders yet?" Blaine asked.
"Not yet. We'll be able to tell next month. Just let me get a few pictures here for you and we'll be done." Kurt and Blaine both had tears in their eyes as they watched the screen. The tech was nice enough to put a circle with A B or C around each baby. "Alright, all done" she said and used a towel to wipe the goo off Emily's stomach. Emily pulled her shirt down as she sat up. "Here you are" the tech smiled and handed the sonogram pictures over. "Thank-you" Emily said and accepted them. She got off the table and put her short sleeved jacket on before pulled her winter coat on as well. The nurse led them out of the room and back down the hall. "So how'd it go?" the nurse at the back desk asked as the other nurse handed her the clipboard. "Wonderful. We're expecting triplets" Emily said. "Really? Oh they'll be the first set of triplets for us" the nurse smiled happily "If you'd like I can separate the sonogram pictures into frames for you." "Thanks" Emily smiled and handed them over.
Kurt and Blaine watched as the nurse separated the pictures and slid them into special paper frames. She put the small stack in a brown paper bag and handed it back to Emily. "Alright, you are all set, have a great day." "Thanks, you too" Emily smiled and they left. The entire visit took about 45 minutes. "I can't believe it triplets" Kurt was grinning from ear to ear. "I know, it's exciting" Blaine smiled too "How are you feeling about it Emily?" "I don't know. I mean yes, it's exciting and I'm excited for you but it's kind of overwhelming." "We'll do this together alright. You don't have to go through any of this alone" Kurt said hooking her arm. "Let's go see the wizard shall we?" Blaine hooked her other arm.
They walked a few blocks and Blaine opened the door to the Verizon store. "Hello! How can I help you today?" a man asked. "We need to add a line to our plan please" Blaine said. "Alright, if you'll just step this way sir" he said and directed him to the counter. "I'll need your name." " Blaine Hummel-Anderson. It's hyphenated" Blaine said. The man nodded and typed it in. "Alright Mr. Hummel-Anderson it appears that you currently have two iPhone's activated with unlimited talk, text and data. You would like to add a third phone?" "That's correct" Blaine said. "Alright, which phone would you like?" "Emily?" Blaine asked. "What?" she looked up from the phone she and Kurt were looking at. "Which phone do you want?" he asked. "Oh I don't care" she said as she and Kurt joined him at the counter.
"iPhone?" Blaine asked Kurt. "iPhone" Kurt nodded. "We'll take an iPhone" Blaine said. "I'll be right back" the man smiled and went into the back room. Kurt moved over the accessory wall and began examining it. The man came back with the phone and opened the box. He put the battery in it and began copying things from the box onto the computer screen. He turned the phone on and handed it over. Blaine handed it to Emily who looked at it. "Here's your phone number" the man wrote it down on a post it and stuck it to the box "Will there be anything else?" "We'll take these too" Kurt said putting several packages onto the counter. The man picked up the scanning gun and began scanning the items. "Alright so we have one iPhone, a blue tooth headset, screen protectors, three battery expansion cases, and a $100 iTunes gift card. Will that be all for you today?" the man asked.
"Yes" Blaine said. "Your total is $736.40." Blaine pulled his wallet out and handed over his credit card even as Emily's eye brows shot into the air. "Thank-you Mr. Hummel-Anderson. You have a wonderful day" the man smiled. "Thank-you, you too" Blaine said putting his wallet away and taking the bag. "I cannot believe you just spent so much money" Emily said as they left the store. "It's pocket change" Kurt said hooking her arm again. "It was $700" Emily said. "Like he said, pocket change. Emily, I'm a very successful recording artist and I own my own studio. Kurt is a very successful fashion designer and interior decorator. We don't worry about money." "But still..." "No, just enjoy your new phone" Kurt said.
Emily smiled and pulled the phone from her pocket. "You'll have plenty of time to really play with it when we get home but for now I say we go get the car and then head to the grocery store. We've got to pick Macy up in about 2 hours" Blaine said. They walked back to the car and headed for the grocery store. Kurt grabbed a cart and they started in the first aisle. Blaine grabbed a case of Pepsi and a case of Root Beer and put them on the bottom rack of the cart. "Did you ask the doctor about the morning sickness?" Kurt asked having completely forgotten earlier. "Yeah. She said it should start dissipating within the next one to two weeks. Some women are sick through their entire pregnancy though. She said carbonated water and saltines should help."
"Carbonated water? Yuck" Blaine said but found it on the shelf and added it to the bottom of the cart. They moved through the store quickly, Blaine grabbing the junk food and Kurt picking out the healthier things. "You said oreo's right Emily?" Blaine asked examining all of the oreo options. "Yeah." "Which kind?" "Double stuffed is best. It's freaking awesome dipped in cool whip" she said. "Really?" Blaine 's eyes lit up. "Oh no" Kurt moaned knowing what was coming. Blaine picked up several packages of the double stuffed oreo's and then rushed off. "Where did he go?" Emily asked. "To get some cool whip" Kurt said. "Seriously? All because I said they go well together?" "He's a junk food addict. I'm lucky he doesn't look it but cool whip is one of his favorite things" Kurt said. "It's delicious" Blaine said from behind them and put the things in the cart. "I keep telling him whipped cream is better" Kurt said.
"No way" Blaine said. "I have to agree with Blaine on this one. Whipped cream is ok but it melts all funny after like 30 seconds and I feel like I can taste the propellant" Emily said. "Thank-you Emily. I have a new favorite" Blaine stuck his tongue out at Kurt as he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her cheek. "Did you just lick my cheek?" she asked after a second. Kurt burst into laughter. "Maybe" Blaine said sheepishly. "I can't believe you just did that" she said using his sleeve to wipe her cheek off. "I'm married to a 5 year old and raising a 4 year old" Kurt said. "Well I'm married to an 80 year old" Blaine said. "You so did not just call me old." "I so did, what are you going to do about it?" Blaine took off at a run seeing the look on Kurt's face.
Kurt took off after him leaving Emily standing at the cart holding in her stunned laughter. "You're husband?" an older woman asked. "No" Emily said. "Brothers?" "Kind of." "It's nice to see young people having fun" she said and walked off. Emily grabbed hold of the cart and continued shopping going off of what was on the list Kurt had left. She made it to the freezer section before she felt her pocket vibrating and making noise. "Hello?" she answered her phone confused. "It's Kurt, where did you go?" "How'd you get my number?" she asked. "I put it in my phone off the post it." "Oh, well I'm in the freezer section" Emily said. "We'll be there in 10 seconds" Kurt said and they hung up.
A few minutes later Kurt and Blaine appeared. "10 seconds huh?" Emily smirked. "Shush, alright, we've got 30 minutes before we have to pick Macy up so let's get this done fast. Blaine you go get the steaks, Emily get the ice cream and I'll get the wine" Kurt said. They separated and came back only to have new assignments. With the splitting up they finished faster and headed directly for the checkout with an overfull cart. They loaded the groceries into the trunk of the car and hurried off to go pick Macy up.
"Hi daddy, papa, Emily" Macy said as she ran to them. "Hello Macy bear" Blaine caught her as she jumped into his arms "How was your day?" "It was great, I drew a picture." "Cool, we'll put it on the fridge as soon as we get home" Blaine said. "You brought the car?" Macy asked seeing the car across the street. "Yeah, we were out shopping" Blaine said setting her down. Macy then hugged Kurt and Emily. "What is that? Daddy and Papa don't have that" Macy said pocking the small baby bump. "Oh, careful" Emily said putting a hand where she had poked. "We've got some big news when we get home honey" Kurt said. They headed across the street and Kurt buckled Macy into the booster seat. Upon reaching the house Blaine pulled the car into the garage.
Macy got out immediately and opened the door leading into the house. She left it open and headed through the wash room into the kitchen where she began unpacking her backpack onto the kitchen table. Kurt, Blaine and Emily worked on moving the grocery bags into the kitchen and filling all of the counters. As Blaine sat down next to Macy at the table Kurt started prepping a snack for her and Emily started unloading the groceries. As she emptied the bags she folded them. "Do you keep the bags?" she asked Kurt. "Yeah, they go under the island sink" Kurt said. Emily nodded and opened the cabinet door before sliding the bags into their appropriate place. She opened the fridge next and started putting things away. Kurt set Macy's prepared snack of bologna, cheese and crackers in front of her before putting the frozen things away.
"Where should these go?" Emily asked of everything that was left. "Oreo's, pudding, crackers, popcorn, snack cakes and fruit snacks all go in the snack cupboard, that one" Kurt said pointing to the farthest cupboard. Emily gathered the mentioned items and carried them over the cupboard where she put them away. She watched where Kurt put everything else keeping mental notes of where everything went. "You guys should come see Macy's picture" Blaine said. Kurt headed over to the table and sat down on Macy's other side. "Oh Macy it's beautiful" Kurt said. "Come see Emily" Macy said happily. Emily stepped up behind the girl and looked down at the picture.
"Mrs. Milovitch told us to draw a picture of our family. This is Daddy" Macy pointed to the man with dark hair and a bow tie holding her hand "This is Papa" she said pointing to the man holding her other hand who was slightly taller than the other man, with light brown hair and a scarf "And this is you Emily" Macy said pointing to the image she had drawn of Emily. Emily laughed lightly "It's so beautiful Macy." The image of her was shorter than both Blaine and Kurt given she was about two inches shorter than Blaine. Macy had used a brown crayon to draw her curly hair. Emily had to laugh because Macy had drawn her hair almost to her feet when in reality Emily's hair was only long enough to tuck into her jeans. "This is going on the fridge" Kurt said and took the picture. He pulled several magnets out of a drawer and secured it to the fridge.
"Macy honey, we need to talk to you" Blaine said as Kurt rejoined them. "Did I do something bad?" Macy asked. "No not at all honey" Kurt said taking his seat. "You know you asked why Emily has a bump on her tummy?" Blaine asked. "Yes" Macy said. "Well honey Emily is pregnant. You're going to be a big sister" Kurt said. "Really?" Macy's eyes went wide. "Yup. In about 5 months you're going to have three siblings" Blaine said. "Three?" Her eyes were still wide. Kurt and Blaine smiled and nodded. Macy pushed her chair out and walked the few steps to where Emily was standing. "Babies in there?" Macy asked pointing to her stomach. "Yup" Emily smiled. "Hello babies" Macy put both of her hands on Emily's stomach. Emily covered her hands with her own.
Tears formed in Emily's eyes as Macy continued talking to them. Kurt pulled his phone out of his pocket and snapped a picture. He showed it to Blaine who smiled. The picture was profile. Emily and Macy were standing in front of the sliding glass doors and the light was streaming in casting an ethereal looking glow about them. "You could win a photography contest with that photo" Blaine whispered and kissed his husband. "Papa, Daddy" Macy said suddenly and sternly. "Yes Macy?" Kurt asked. "We're not ready for a baby" Macy said. "What do you mean honey?" Blaine asked. "They don't have beds or clothes" Macy said. "Don't you worry about that Macy. We'll take care of that really quick" Kurt smiled. "We didn't pick out paint colors today" Blaine face palmed.
"It's okay. I think we should wait until next month when we find out the genders" Kurt said. "You want to find out?" Emily asked. "We were going to talk about it with you. We talked earlier and we think it's a good idea. We've weighed some pros and con's and looked back at when we were preparing for Macy" Blaine said. "We had a hard time deciding on nursery colors and clothes and furniture. I still have some boy clothes that I made just in case" Kurt said. "And we'll be prepping for three babies. I think it'll be easier all around. Especially the baby shower" Blaine said.
"Baby shower?" Emily asked. "Of course! Our friends threw a baby shower for us before Macy was born. Some of them were none to thrilled that we didn't know if she was a boy or a girl" Blaine said. "I'm a girl daddy" Macy said. "Of course you are darlin' but we didn't know that before you born" Blaine said picking her up and kissing her cheek. Kurt smiled at his husband and daughter. Just then Kurt's phone rang. He pulled it out of his pocket and answered.
"Kurt Elizabeth Hummel-Anderson, you have not called me in three days" a woman said loud enough that Emily could hear. "Hello to you too Rachel. We've had a really busy past few days" Kurt said. "I guess you're forgiven. Let me talk to my niece." "Oh that's nice, call me all mad at me than don't even say hello and ask to speak with my daughter. I see how this works" Kurt said. "Yes now let me talk to my angel" Rachel said. Kurt handed his phone over to Macy who had been holding out her hands. "Hi Auntie Rachel." "Hi Mace, how are you?" "I'm great. I met my mommy, and I drew a picture of my daddy, papa me and Emily and I'm gonna be a big sister and I had bologna, cheese and crackers for snack and..."
"Slow down peanut, can I talk to your papa for a second?" "She wants to talk to you" Macy handed the phone back to Kurt who had gone two shades lighter. "Hi Rach" Kurt practically whispered. "Kurt Elizabeth Hummel-Anderson, what is going on over there? Why have I not heard about any of this?" "It's kind of a long story Rach. We wanted to keep it a secret for awhile." "And what's this about her mom?" "The woman who had Macy for us is named Emily to clear that up and she's our surrogate again" Kurt explained. "We'll I'm happy for you. I want to meet her" Rachel said. "Sure, why don't we get together for dinner here this weekend. I'll cook and Blaine and Finn can watch the game and Macy and Jackson can play" Kurt said.
"Sounds good, so we'll see you on Sunday at 2? The game starts at 3 I think" Rachel said. "Sounds great. See you then" Kurt said and hung up. "The Hudson's will be joining us on Sunday at 2" Kurt said and wrote it down on the calendar that graced the freezer. "The Hudson's? As in Rachel Hudson?" Emily asked. "Yup, she wants to meet you" Kurt said. "OMG" Emily said. "Did you just say OMG?" Blaine asked. "Did you just say it?" Kurt asked him. "Auntie Rachel is coming? Uncle Finn too?" Macy asked. "That's right" Kurt said "And Jackson!" "Ew, Jackson has cooties" Macy said. "Why does he have cooties?" Blaine laughed. "Because he's a boy. Everyone knows boys have cooties" Macy said. "I'm a boy, do I have cooties?" Blaine asked.
"I'm a boy too. Come on Blaine, let's give her cooties" Kurt said. "No" Macy squealed and wiggled out of Blaine's arms. She ran straight to Emily. "Save me" she pleaded. "Don't worry, I'll protect you from cooties" Emily said and scooped the four year old up before taking off. Blaine and Kurt were hot on there heals. Emily hurried up the stairs and down the hall. She heard Kurt and Blaine slow down so she set Macy down and took her hand. "In here" Emily said and pulled open a door. She was surprised when there were stairs behind it. "Where does this go?" Emily asked. "The attic" Macy said. "Come on, they won't look for us there" Emily smiled. She closed the door behind them and they walked up the stairs. "Wow" Emily said when they got to the top. It was a finished attic space and was incredibly large. The window directly opposite the stairs was stained glass and cast a colored shadow on the wall. There were a few boxes laying around and a few pieces of furniture that were covered by sheets.
"This way" Macy said as she heard her fathers drawing nearer. She led Emily around the corner of the railing for the stairs and opened a door. It was an empty closet. The closet looked more like a hallway with only one entrance/exit. It was easily ten feet long and six feet wide. There was a path about 2 1/2 wide leading from the door to the opposite wall but the other 3 1/2 feet of space was shelving from the floor to the ceiling. Emily flipped the light switch before she closed the door. "Come on" Macy lay down flat and slid underneath the bottom shelf. "Should I turn off the light?" Emily asked. "Yes, then they won't see us" Macy said. Emily turned off the light and then rolled under the shelf settling on her stomach. It was only mildly uncomfortable and she knew she wouldn't be able to do it for much longer. They waited there trying not to laugh for several minutes. They heard Blaine and Kurt come up the stairs after presumably searching the other rooms for them.
"Haven't been up here in years" they heard Kurt say. "I found Macy up here a few weeks ago. She seemed to like the stained glass a lot" Blaine said. Macy laughed before Emily could put her hand over her mouth. "Did you hear that?" Kurt couldn't hide the amusement in his voice. "I have an idea" Blaine said. Emily didn't know what his idea was but several seconds later she had to hold back several curses as her phone started ringing. She wrangled it out of her pocket ending up on her back half way out in the open. She pressed the silent button but too late. The door was pulled open and Macy was squealing in delight as Kurt grabbed her up. Blaine pulled Emily up holding her hostage as Kurt did the same with Macy.
"We give up, we give up" Macy laughed. "No Macy, don't surrender" Emily said dramatically. "No surrender huh? How about now?" Blaine began tickling her. "Ah, no...okay, okay, I surrender" Emily said. "That's more like it. Now admit that boys are cooler than girls." "Never" Emily said and Blaine tickled her again. "I...won't...say...it" Emily laughed trying to breath. "Are babies ticklish?" Macy asked Kurt and Blaine stopped tickling Emily allowing her to catch her breath." "Everybody is ticklish" Kurt said. Macy wiggled out of his arms and reached her little fingers out tickling Emily's stomach. Emily laughed at her effort. "Babies aren't ticklish while they're still in mommy's tummy" Emily laughed.
"Oh" Macy said before a yawn escaped her mouth. "Looks like someone could use a nap" Kurt said. "Noooo" Macy whined. "Now Macy, when papa says it's time for a nap he's probably right. And big girls don't talk like that" Emily said kneeling in front of her. "I'm sorry papa. Will you sing to me Emily?" Macy asked. "Sure, come on squirt" she said. Macy took her hand and they left the attic space. Blaine saw both Macy and Emily stop at the top of the stairs and look at the stained glass. He was struck with a thought but he waited to speak until he heard the door below them close. "I can't believe that. It's never been that easy to get Macy to agree to a nap" Kurt said. "I've just had a thought" Blaine said. "I'm listening" Kurt said.
"What if we turned this space into a place for Emily. You know like a place she can go to get away. We both have our offices where we go when we need a break from anything so I think Emily should have a space too." "That's a great idea. Before or after the babies are born?" Kurt asked. "Before" Blaine said and Kurt pulled out his phone before opening his calendar. "I can start working on the designs at work tomorrow. Her birthday is coming up. Birthday present?" Kurt asked. "Sounds perfect" Blaine said. "She was admiring the stained glass before she left, I'll see what I can do to involve that" Kurt said making a note. "Exactly what I was thinking" Blaine smiled.
"What should I sing?" Emily asked as she knelt next to Macy's bed and tucked her in. "A lullaby" Macy said. "Alright let me think, oh I got a good one" Emily said.
"A gentle breeze from Hushabye Mountain
softly blows o'er lullaby bay.
It fills the sails of boats that are waiting-
Waiting to sail your worries away.
It isn't far to Hushabye Mountain
and your boat waits down by the key.
The winds of night so softly are sighing-
Soon they will fly your troubles to sea.
So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain.
Wave good-bye to cares of the day.
And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from lullaby bay"
Macy was fast asleep by the time Emily finished. She snuck out of the room only to find Kurt and Blaine waiting in the hallway outside the door. "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?" Kurt asked. "One of my favorites" Emily admitted. "Kurt's going into work tomorrow and I was planning on it too" Blaine said. "I can stay here with Macy, that's not a problem" Emily said. "Actually I was wondering if you would like to come too. See the studio, we'll talk about you recording on our Christmas album" Blaine said. "Uh sure, I guess" Emily said. "Great, Macy will be in school from 10-2 again and I'll be heading into work as soon as I drop her off. You can ride with me and then bring my car back in time to pick her up from school and Kurt can pick me up on his way home" Blaine said. "Ok" Emily said.
"Alright so let's see here" Kurt said pulling the cell phone items from the neglected bag. "Emily these are for you" Kurt said putting the blue tooth headset box, the screen protectors, one of the battery extension cases and the iTunes gift card in a pile. "Wow" Emily said looking at the items. "The blue tooth headset has been a life saver for me. When I'm talking to clients on the phone I like to be able to sketch what it is I'm designing" Kurt said. "The screen protectors are kind of obvious. These cases act as an extension of the battery so you longer use out of them. I've been meaning to pick some of them up but I always forgot" Blaine said as he pulled the box open. Kurt and Emily followed his lead and soon all three of their identical phones were now easy to tell apart. Blaine's case was hot pink, something Emily didn't understand. Kurt's was simple black because it would go with everything and Emily's was a light teal.
"Here is the charger, you should probably plug your phone in. They don't come with a lot of charge" Kurt said and opened the cell phone box to retrieve the phone charger. Emily accepted it from him and plugged it into the nearest outlet which happened to be on the side of the island she was sitting at. "And this is so that you can start building up a music and app collection" Kurt said sliding the gift card toward her. "You guys are going to spoil me" Emily said. "No more than you're spoiling us. We've got Macy and three more on the way. We'll never be able to thank-you enough" Blaine said. The doorbell rang at that moment and Blaine went to answer it.
"Oh good, upstairs, third door on the right" Blaine said. Kurt and Emily, curious as to who it was, stepped into the doorway. Emily saw several men carrying boxes up the stairs. Blaine was standing in the front door and signing a piece of paper on a clipboard. He pulled out his wallet, pulled out a few bills and handed them to the man with a smile. The men came back down from upstairs and carried several more boxes up the stairs before leaving. "You don't have much do you?" Kurt asked. "That was actually more boxes than I was expecting. I told Blaine that they could leave all of the appliances and what not. It's not like they were very good anyway" Emily said. Kurt's phone rang at that point. "I have to take this. I'll be in my office" Kurt said. Blaine and Emily could hear Kurt answer the phone as he headed down the hallway. "So, want some help unpacking?" Blaine asked. "Help no, company absolutely" Emily said.
"Let's go then" Blaine said. They headed upstairs and into Emily's room. The boxes had been stacked neatly against the far wall. "Alright, here we go" she said pulling the top box onto the floor and opening it. "Clothes, perfect" she said and began unloading them onto her bed. "Any of this need to be hung up?" Blaine asked. "Nope" Emily said and picked up a pile before heading over to the dresser and opening a drawer. Blaine watched as she separated her shirts into the middle drawers and her pants into the bottom drawers. She popped another box open as he took the now empty box into the hallway. For an hour Emily unloaded the boxes. Her books ended up on the small book shelf near the arm chair. She put her bathroom things away in the bathroom and by the time she was done her room looked more her.
There was a string of fairy lights that she hung up in the window. She had a few things hanging in the closet and a few pairs of shoes on the shoe rack but the majority of the walk in closet was empty. "Kurt is not going to like this" Blaine said as he stood in the doorway of the closet. "Why?" Emily asked. "You have no clothes. He'll have a heart attack" Blaine said. "We'll I'm going to have to buy some new clothes soon. I got rid of all the maternity clothes I had. I figured I wouldn't need them for awhile and I had no room to store them" Emily said.
"Don't let Kurt hear you say that. He'll have you at the department store and his studio before you can blink. "Think he would let me use his sewing machine?" Emily asking fingering a piece of clothing. "It depends. What do you need it for?" Blaine asked. "A few of the things I've made need some mending" Emily said. "You can sew?" "Yeah, I found it was almost easier to make my own clothes because I didn't like what I was finding in the stores and it was cheaper to make them. I bought my fabric in bulk so..." "Oh sweet cheesus" Kurt said from the door of the bedroom. "Hi honey" Blaine said. "Where's the rest of your stuff?" Kurt asked. "This is it" Emily said. "We have to do some shopping" Kurt muttered. "Blaine said you'd say that" Emily said.
"Why?" Kurt narrowed his eyes. "No reason" Blaine said standing in front of the door to the closet. "What's in the closet?" Kurt asked. "Nothing" Blaine said. Emily was beyond confused at that point. Kurt nudged Blaine out of his way and went into the closet. "Nothing is right. Where are all of your clothes?" Kurt asked. "The rest are in the dresser" Emily said. "Oh sweet Cheesus" Kurt repeated "What are you doing this weekend? I'm clearing my schedule and we're going shopping" Kurt said pulling out his phone. "That's not necessary" Emily said. "Oh trust me, it is. I cannot allow the mother of my children to own so few clothes. Although these are fabulous" Kurt said examining the few pieces hanging in the closet. "She made them" Blaine said.
"You sew?" Kurt asked. "Yeah, I was actually wondering if I could use your sewing machine. A few things need to be mended" Emily said. "Yeah sure" Kurt said. "Daddy? Papa?" Macy rubbed her eyes and tried to hide her yawn. "Hello Macy bear. Did you have a nice nap?" Blaine asked. "Yeah, what's for dinner?" she asked. "What do you say we go out for dinner tonight? Chinese?" Blaine asked. "With Uncle Mike and Aunt Tina?" Macy asked. "We can call them and see if they would like to join us" Blaine offered. "Yeah, do it do it do it" Macy said. "What do you say Macy?" Emily asked. "Please" Macy said. Blaine laughed and pulled out his phone. "Who are these people?" Emily asked Kurt.
"Some friends from high school. We were in Glee club together. Mike Chang and Tina Cohen-Chang, no relation until they got married" Kurt said. "Mike Chang? As in choreographer Mike Chang? I took his dance class after Macy was born to get back into shape" Emily said. "Small world" Kurt said. "No kidding! How many of your other friends are famous?" "Pretty much all of them I guess. Mercedes Jones and Sam Evans, Quinn Fabray, Noah Puckerman, Artie Abrams, Santana and Brittany Lopez-Pierce. Those are the main ones. We were all in Glee club together" Kurt said. "I think I'm going into fan girl mode. You just named almost all of my favorite people." "Almost all?" "You, Blaine and Macy are on the list too" Emily smiled. "Alright, Mike and Tina are in. They're going to meet us there in an hour" Blaine said. "Yeah, come on let's get ready" Macy said. "You're already dressed Macy" Kurt said. "Oh yeah, I'm going to color them a picture" Macy said and ran from the room.
AN: And there you have chapter two. I'm going to try and get the third chapter posted later today or tomorrow. I just have to remember and commandeer the computer from my younger brothers.
Once again I BEG YOU PLEASE press the little review button down there. I live off of reviews and the like and I'm on my last breath. I can't write without air. They are like CRACK to me. "Pretty pretty please" (If you ever ever feel, like you're less than less than perfect) couldn't help myself lol.
You can follow me on twitter….amedasani
I'd like to give a big thanks to MissMarauder93. I've been reading her fanfiction "Missed Opportunities" and it is fabulous so you should all read it. I started following her on twitter (and you should too) and I mentioned that I was writing this story but that I was kind of a coward so I hadn't posted it. I said I needed Blaine to text me "Courage" and she asked how about a random person on twitter and proceeded to tweet me "Courage" lol. God bless her. So if you don't like the story it's her fault (just kidding) and if you do like it then go ready her stuff cause it's supermegafoxyhotawesome lol.
