The Talks
( Finn )
As both Finn and Kurt and gotten to the top of the stairs from the basement. Finn watched Kurt as he headed along the hallway and then up the other set of stairs onto the second floor to go to his dad's room.
Finn rubbed his arm nervously as he took a glance towards the dining. The distance from the basement door to the dining room looked miles to Finn right now.
After what seemed like hours but was only a few minutes, Finn headed towards the dining room door. He nervously pushed opened the door and stepped inside, closing the door firmly behind himself.
Once he had turned around, Finn noticed his mom sitting at one side of the dining room table with the chair beside her pulled out indicating that she wanted him to sit there next to her.
"Take a seat sweetie..." Carole spoke softly, patting the chair beside her.
Finn cautiously took a few steps forward before sitting down slowly in the seat beside his mom.
There was a really awkward silence in the room and it was making Finn really uneasy and even more nervous as he sat there.
Carole was the first to break the silence which made Finn pretty glad that he didn't have to speak first.
"Honey...I'm not angry or mad at you...I'm just confused." Carole spoke with a soft but firm tone as she spoke to her son, who looked up at her with a confused look on his face.
"Wh-Why?" Finn managed to stammer out as he looked towards his mom before looking down at his lap.
"Well...It's not every day that you're son who you thought was straight and would always like girls, comes out and tells you that he's dating a boy...And not just any boy, the boy that's probably going to be your step brother soon..." Carole explained to Finn who only just nodded his head once in realization as to why she was confused.
"But mom, it's not like he's a real relative or anything...it's not wrong is it?" Finn pointed out before asking that question right at the end to which Carole had to think about it.
"No...It's not wrong...It's only wrong if it's a blood relative which Kurt is not...but people are still going to find it weird...do you get me sweetie?" Carole asked her son, making sure he was following where she was coming from.
Finn only nodded knowing he was right about him and Kurt dating not being wrong.
There was another long silence as Carole and Finn just sat looking at each other before Finn this time broke the silence.
"So...Are you okay with...uh...me and Kurt?" Finn asked his mom, hoping that she would be because he finally thought he found someone he could be with for quite some time. Kurt understood him and never made fun of his for being freakishly tall or either really dumb. Whereas with Quinn or Rachel they were always getting on at him for being stupid or not having a job. With Kurt he felt he could be himself and the boy would still want him.
Carole took a deep breath and reached her hand over, placing it gently on top of her son's much larger hand.
"If you're happy...then I'll stand by you..." Carole spoke her tone pretty softly as he gently rubbed the back of Finn's hand.
"But..."
Finn looked up when he heard the dreaded 'but' coming from his mom's mouth, knowing she was going to say something he didn't like.
"If things at school...and outside start getting bad. Don't say I didn't warn you...because you should know how bad Lima is about people being gay, but they would be worse if they found out that two step brothers where dating..." Carole explained as she continued to rub the back of Finn hand.
"I know mom...I think i can handle it. Especially after yesterday at school..." Finn told his mom before realizing he had just put his foot in it, Carole was probably now going to ask him what happened at school.
"Why? What happened did someone hurt you honey?" Carole asked a hint of worry and concern in her voice even though she knew Finn could take care of himself.
"Erm...No mom I'm fine. Just Puck caught Kurt giving me a kiss on the cheek and he kinda decided to pick on me. But i dealt with him." Finn explained to which Carole frowned wondering why his best friend had turned on his so easily, before she remember the whole baby drama and that Finn and Puck where no longer best friends anymore.
"So was that it?" Carole urged her some to tell her more.
"Uh...no, after that Kurt came to look for me because he heard people talking and laughing about me and him but he had gotten a slushie facial before he found me and I had gotten the same from Karofsky and Azimio..." Finn explained but Carole cut him off when he mentioned Karofsky and Azimio.
"Are they still giving you trouble?" Carole asked to which Finn just nodded to which Carole sighed and shook her head.
"I'm going to speak to your principle about those two tomorrow, I'm sick of hearing about them tormenting you and Kurt" Carole told Finn who just sighed and nodded, not bothering to argue with her about not going to speak to Principle Figgins about them.
"Anyway continue." Carole told her son.
"Well once I found Kurt, we both went into an empty room...and I...kinda got angry at him..." Finn explained, lowering his head when he remembers how hurt Kurt looked as he stormed out of the classroom.
"What do you mean you got angry at him?" Carole asked her son a little curious as to what he meant whether he meant hit him or just verbal.
"Well...I blamed everything on him...that it was his fault we both got slushied and his fault that Puck picked on me...but he kinda got me back by telling me it was just as much my fault as it was his..." Finn explained as he lowered his head once more, looking down at his lap.
"Oh...But you two are definitely okay now?" Carole then hinted towards her son, obvious that the answer was yes when both boys seemed happy together.
"Oh yeah! I apologized to him when i found him later that day, I got kinda worried because he hadn't shown up to class...but I found him crying in the boys bathroom and well...I sang to him...cause I didn't know what else to do...and he took that as an apology...so we are all good..." Finn explained flashing his mom a soft lopsided smile.
Carole smiled back towards her son as he leaned over and kissed his cheek.
"Good honey...Like I said...as long as your happy, I'm happy, I'm beside you and Kurt 100% just like I'm sure Burt will be." Carole told her only son.
Finn quickly moved forward and hugged his mom, she was very understanding and he was glad he had a mom like her. He could rely on her and trust her with anything, plus he loved her and he always would, she raised him alone so he could do nothing but trust her.
"Thanks Mom. I love you." Finn told Carole who smiled brightly towards her son, hugging him back.
"I love you too honey."
( Kurt )
Once Kurt had gotten to the bottom of the next set of stairs, he slowly but sure ascended them. He really didn't want to go speak to his dad about this because he knew his dad wasn't the best with these kinds of talks. Although when he was a little bit younger his dad sat him down and gave him the birds and the bees talk. This was a little embarrassing on both Father and Son's parts.
Being completely lost in his thoughts Kurt hadn't realized that he was already standing outside his dad's room. With a deep breath Kurt knocked lightly on the door, like he always did unless he knew his dad wasn't in there. Which was always when he was going to curl up next to his mom's dresser.
"C'mon in buddy..." Burt called out from within the room, knowing it could only be Kurt.
Kurt hesitated slightly as he took hold of the door handle; it was as if when he touched it he thought it was going to burn him or something. With a soft push of the door, it opened and Kurt took a slow step inside, closing the door behind himself.
He kept his back to Burt for a second before turning, spotting his dad sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Sit down..." Burt instructed and Kurt obeyed straight away by sitting on the edge of the bed by his father.
The diva in Kurt was telling him not to bother obeying his dad and just do what he wanted, but Kurt managed to shove the diva to the back of his mind just for the remainder of this talk.
"Right...I know that in the garage I said I wasn't alright with the Idea of you and Finn but if you where happy then I couldn't take that from you." Burt began the talk without any hesitation which wasn't like Burt at all; usually he would be too scared to even talk about stuff like this.
"But..." Burt then continued.
The second that Kurt heard that dreaded word and just by the way his dad had said it, he knew what his dad was about to say wasn't going to be good at all so he looked down at his lap.
"I don't want to see you getting hurt. I know you think that Finn won't hurt you and that he's like a whole new generation of dude, who wouldn't hurt you and will protect you for the rest of your days...but Finn is just like every other guy in school who have bullied you. He used to do it to. That is one of the main reasons why I'm not happy with this." Burt explained which made Kurt look up, the small fashionista's brows drawing together in a frown.
"But Dad, Finn's not like that! He's different! I know he is!" Kurt protested, looking his dad straight in the eye as his own eyes began to fill with unshed tears.
"Look Kurt, I'm not saying Finn isn't different at all, I'm just saying, he's still a guy..." Burt spoke, but had chosen the complete wrong wording on what he had said.
"Like I've told you dad...I'm a guy too..." Kurt hissed in his dad's direction, a few tears now rolling down his cheeks.
"KURT YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!" Burt exclaimed, raising his voice pretty loudly which made Kurt jump. His dad rarely shouted at him and when he did it scared the smaller male quite a bit, he hated seeing his dad angry.
Kurt now couldn't control his tears as they streamed down his cheeks rapidly, to which Kurt looked down at his lap, not bothering to say anything else, He did know what his dad meant but it still hurt when his dad referred to him being gay as not a guy thing.
"Look...When everyone in town hears that you're dating your soon to be step brother, you and Finn and even me and Carole are going to be the laughing stalk of the whole town...I don't want that." Burt explained to which Kurt looked up, his eyes red from crying, he was still crying but he had wiped some tears off his cheeks.
"We're not going to be dad. It's not a bad thing if Finn and I aren't blood related. Plus I'm used to the criticism and if I can do it, I'm sure you can too." Kurt explained, but before his dad could speak he spoke again.
"Where do you think I get my strength from?" Kurt asked his dad but when he dad stayed silent he answered his own question.
"You dad...If I didn't have you I don't think I would be able to go out of the house." Kurt spoke, his tone soft even though he was slightly angry for his dad shouting at him.
"When we lost mom. Half of me died with her. I miss her dad and if I lose you, the rest of me will die with you. All I'm asking you to do is trust me on this one. Be here for me when I need you the most, please?" Kurt was practically begging his dad at this moment and he knew that his dad was taken back when he mentioned his mom. He rarely did that when they were having an argument over something unless he really felt the need to.
"Okay Fine...but if things don't work out don't say I didn't warn you..." Burt explained trying to keep his tough guy demeanour but he couldn't help himself as he reached forward and tugged his son into a hug. To which Kurt responded by throwing his arms around his dad, hugging him tightly.
"I love you" Burt whispered to his son as he continued hugging him.
Kurt had started crying again but this time it wasn't completely out of anger or sadness there was slight happiness in there.
"I love you too" Kurt whispered back to his dad, resting his head on his dad's shoulder.
There was a silence in the room again, but this time not a awkward one. One that both Kurt and Burt felt comfortable in because they had each other and they knew they always would no matter what.
"Dad? Can we just...lie down and talk? We have done that since before Finn and Carole moved in..." Kurt asked his dad, his voice pretty quite since his head was still on his dad's shoulder. He then rose his head and looked towards Burt, awaiting his answer.
"Of Course we can buddy..." Burt told his son as he flashed him a warm gentle smile before they both moved themselves onto the be properly so they could get comfy.
Finn and Carole had decided to sit and play a few games of cards since they had finished their talk and Burt and Kurt had taken a while longer than them. They both sat talking about Finn's school and football stuff, Carole telling her son she was proud of him.
Burt and Kurt had both lay down on the bed and Kurt had curled up to his dad. He was pretty exhausted after a day of shopping and a whole load of crying while talking to his dad. They both spoke about Kurt's cheerio's stuff and how much Burt hated Sue sometimes. While talking, Kurt had dosed off to sleep.
Burt smiled when he noticed his son was fast asleep but he couldn't leave him on his and Carole's bed so he stood up and gently lifted Kurt with one arm under his legs and the other supporting his back. Kurt groaned sleepily as he rested his head on his dad's chest but stayed fast asleep.
Burt walked out of his room and headed downstairs towards the dining room, still carrying Kurt just to see if Carole and Finn where okay.
With a kick of his foot the dining room door opened which made Carole and Finn look up from their cards game. Finn couldn't help but smile when he saw his boyfriend fast asleep in Burt's arms.
"Aww look at the poor soul, he must be shattered..." Carole said as she stood up from the table and walked over to Burt, moving a little of Kurt's hair away from his face gently so as not to wake him.
"Yeah, but it's only four o'clock, I'm going to put him on the couch...Let him nap there then wake him for dinner." Burt explained before he slowly moved from the dining room door and headed towards the living room.
He softly lay Kurt on the couch before leaving the living room and going back into the dining room.
Kurt stayed fast asleep after his dad laid him down, curling up into a slight ball as he slept.
Finn looked up at Burt when he came back.
"Uh...is it okay if I go watch the basketball game? I'll keep the TV down so I don't wake Kurt." Finn asked Burt, still pretty scared of doing anything in Burt's house.
"Uh yeah, no need to ask you stay here now Finn, plus it will give you something to do while your mom and I make dinner." Burt explained.
Finn grinned and stood up from the table and headed towards the living room. Since Kurt didn't take up much of the couch, Finn sat himself down on the part of the couch that Kurt wasn't on making sure he didn't move too much.
Kurt had moved a little bit and stretched his legs out, resting them on Finn's lap, still completely asleep but Finn's didn't mind, he smiled and turned on the TV, resting his hands on Kurt's legs gently.
Subconsciously, Finn began to gently stroke the little part of Kurt's leg that was showing at the bottom of his trousers as he watched TV which happened to relax Kurt as he slept.
This day's events had been tiring and Finn had a plan of having dinner and then going downstairs to curl up in bed with Kurt, maybe watch a movie before falling asleep.
That sounded like a great plan.
Well Guy's what did you think of this one? Reviews please? Also some Idea's to what could happen next, I might consider using your ideas :)
