Chapter 5

Blaine and Sam were pleasantly surprised when they were handed the keys to their new home a little over two weeks after they got back from New York.

"I thought the process of buying a house took longer than two weeks?" Blaine asked his mother.

"It does if you are doing a traditional mortgage, but since your father and I paid cash for the property the sale went through quicker" his mother responded.

"So, does this mean that Blaine and I can move in sooner than we thought?" Sam asked.

"You two can move in today if you wanted to."

Blaine and Sam just looked and each other and Blaine's mother had to hide her smile as she realized that they were doing that non-verbal communicating thing that they did with each other.

Blaine smiled and said "I know we said that we wanted to spend the next few weeks with our friends here before we moved away, but that was before I knew we had the option to move sooner."

"So this is it then" Sam asked. "We're moving to New York now."

So it was decided. Blaine and Sam spent the next week packing up everything they wanted to take with them to New York and saying good bye to all of the friends. Blaine's parents were going to have the bulk of their stuff shipped to their new home. It would be waiting for them when they got there. Sam had wanted to visit his family before he moved, but they themselves were out of town on vacation. So he spoke to them on the phone the day before he was to leave and said he would visit as soon as he could.

After Sam was done packing the last of his things that he would be taking on the plane with him, he thanked Burt and Carole for letting him stay there even after Finn and Kurt had moved out. They told Sam that he was like a third son to them and that this will always be his second home. He hugged them both then headed over to Blaine's house.

He was staying the night there so the car Blaine's parents rented to take them to the airport could pick them both up at the same time. After they showered and was lounging on Blaine's bed Sam turned to him and asked,

"Have you told Kurt that you'll be in NY sooner than planned?"

"No, we haven't really talked that much since we got back to Lime. The few times we did the conversation was so tense that one of us wound up using as excuse to end the call."

"Don't tell me his still mad about your parents taking us and out to dinner our last night there. I mean come on, it's not like you knew what your parents were planning and just didn't tell him. You had no idea what your mother asked you to come back to the hotel for. Hell neither did I for that matter. "

"Yeah, but when I realized what was going on I should have insisted that Kurt be invited to come as well. I mean he already thinks that my parents and Cooper likes you more than him as it is."

"Well, they do." Sam said with a smile.

"Sam, come on. Yes, my parents adore you and Coop thinks of you as a second brother, but they like Kurt as well."

"They may tolerate Kurt, but they love me. Come on I'm on first name basis with your parents, and Cooper has no problem hanging out with me even if you're not there. When was the last time he just hung out with Kurt without you being there?"

Blaine decided he did not want to talk about Kurt anymore and suggested that they get some sleep. They had an early flight the next morning. Sam didn't argue since he was tired anyway, and as soon as Blaine turned out the lights and his head hit the pillow he was out. Blaine however did not go right to sleep. He had too many thoughts going through his head.

He knew that his parents loved Sam, but who didn't. Sam was the kindest and most loving person he knew. They barely acknowledged Kurt half of the time. Blaine knew a lot of this came from what happened between him and Kurt last year. He also knew that he did not help the situation by constantly complaining about Kurt in front of them. He decided to try and get some sleep and worry about the whole Kurt situation when he got to NY.

Mrs. Anderson had went to Blaine's room to tell the boys goodnight, but when she got to the door and heard Kurt's name she decided to listen and see what they were talking about. She didn't mean to eavesdrop she just wanted to know where things were with Kurt and her son. She smiled when she heard Sam say the she and her husband tolerated Kurt, but they loved Sam. He has no idea just how true that was she thought. Once she saw under the door that they had turned the lights off and she no longer heard talking she headed for her own room. She decided she would have a talk with Blaine before he left tomorrow.

Blaine and Sam were both up bright and early the next morning dressed and ready to go. They both ate a light breakfast of fresh fruit and juice. They were finishing up their breakfast when Mrs. Anderson came into the kitchen also dressed for the day.

"You're up early mom."

"I didn't want to miss seeing you boys off and not having a chance to say good bye" she said while standing between the two boys and wrapping an arm around both of their shoulders.

"Mrs. Anderson, I can't thank you and your husband enough for everything that you have done for me."

Blaine's mom stopped Sam before he could say another word. She ignored the fact that he addressed her as Mrs. Anderson and said,

"Sam, you just kick ass at school, enjoy your life to the fullest in NY and continue to look out for Blaine and that will be all the thanks we need."

As she squeezed Sam shoulder a little to show she meant every word. She then asked to speak to Blaine for a minute before their ride got there.

Sam started to clear away their dishes and put on a pot of coffee for Mrs. Anderson while Blaine follows his mom out to the living room. Blaine and his mom sat on the couch and she turned to face him, and took one of Blaine's hands into hers.

"Blaine, all I ask is that you hear me out before you interrupt and just know that I am not trying to run your life, but just trying to look out for you. I know that you are looking at this move to NY as a chance to rekindle your relationship with Kurt, to try and get him to accept your marriage proposal. Sweetheart, you are young and about to start a new and exciting chapter in your life in a new and exciting city. Getting married to anyone should be the last thing on your mind. I mean even if you want to start dating Kurt again fine but don't rush to get engaged. This is the time when you should be out experiencing new things and meeting new people. This is when you should be discovering exactly who 'adult' Blaine Anderson is before making him someone's husband."

Blaine didn't know how to respond. He had always taken his parents advice because he knew they would never stir him wrong, and they always had his best interest at heart. Also most of the time their advice mirrored what he was thinking anyway. This was the first time his parent's advice conflicted with what he was feeling.

"Mom I hear what you're saying, but I love Kurt. I know in my heart that he is my soul mate. I know that our relationship is not perfect but we will work on it once I'm living in NY. I just have to show him that I am committed to making it work."

"Blaine, no offense, but your 'relationship' is so far from perfect it's not even on the same continent. Just hear me out. Every problem and issue that led to you and Kurt breaking up in the first place have they been resolved or even discussed?"

Blaine didn't answer, confirming that would be a no.

"Blaine you two aren't even together and you're dealing with his bouts of jealousy. Sweetheart I know that Kurt was your first real boyfriend, your first love so it's going to feel like he is the one you were meant to spend the rest of your life with. I'm just trying to point out that your first love doesn't have to be your last love or even your only love. I just don't want to see you get stuck in an unhealthy relationship so think about what I said ok."

Blaine told his mother that he would take into consideration everything that she said.

By this time the car had arrived to take Blaine and Sam to the airport. They gave Blaine's mom a hug and kiss good bye and promised to call as soon as they landed in NY. Blaine was hopping his father would be back from his business trip in time to see him off, but told his mom to tell him that he loved him and would talk to him later. Little did he and Sam know that his father was in NY overseeing his last surprise for them.

Blaine was quiet during the ride to the airport. He was thinking really hard about everything his mother had said to him. He knew she had made some valid points. He just didn't know what he should do. His head was telling him one thing while his heart was saying something different. The whole situation was giving him a headache, so he decided to put it out of his mind and deal with once he was in NY.

The flight from Lima to New York was smooth and once they claimed their bags and exited the airport they saw a driver holding up a sign with both of their names on it. They made their way over to the car and introduced themselves to the driver before putting their bags and the back then they hopped the car heading for their new home. The closer they got to the house the more excited they got.

They knew they had a lot to do today with furniture shopping and separating the boxes that were shipped ahead, but knowing that this was their house their home made it all worth it. When they arrived at their home they got out of the car and the driver helped them get their bags out the back. They tipped the driver and sent him on his way. The boys stood at the bottom of the front steps and smiled at each other before racing up and into the house.

They expected to find boxes randomly placed around the living room and dining room and was ready to start separating them and taking them upstairs. What they found was a fully furnished living room complete with soft leather furniture, end table and a coffee table, a large LED television mounted to the wall with an entertainment cabinet under it. The dining room had a nice oak table with four chairs under it. Nothing to fancy and the kitchen was fully stocked with all kinds of kitchen utensils and cook ware.

They ran upstairs to find both bedrooms had been completely set up with queen size beds in both. They both had 32" televisions mounted on the walls. All the boxes were separated and placed in their room. The only rooms that weren't touched were the bathroom and the back room that would serve as Sam's studio.

They went back downstairs to the kitchen and found an envelope address to the both of them from Blaine's parents.

Blaine and Sam

Your father and I thought we would make life a little easier by having the placed already furnished for you two. We know that you will want to put your own personal touch on the place but figured we could at least get you started. Remember this is a new adventure for the both of you so please enjoy it to the fullest. If you guys need anything, anything at all do not hesitate to call. We know you are adults, but even adults need a little help from time to time.

Love

Mom/Laura

Blaine refolded the letter and put it back in the envelope. He and Sam turned and looked at each other and at the same time they both said,

"Welcome home!"
