Chapter 4: Meet the Family

Disclaimer: I do not own Glee.


Rachel's POV

I felt Blaine's body stiffen under mine and when I looked in the same direction he was looking in I felt my body stiffen too as I saw who it was.

What a great first impression

I quickly went into a standing position and Blaine followed with haste.

The sounds of silence had increased as each second passed. Blaine broke the silence by saying "Dad...this is my girlfriend Rachel." and I felt his arm encircle around me.

I saw his dad's face automatically light up. He walked towards us and introduced himself "I'm James, it's very nice to meet you!" and he shook my hand.

"Have you introduced her to the whole family?" he asked Blaine enthusiastically

"Not yet. But I plan on doing it a bit later."Blaine replied

He nodded and said "alright, Well I'll leave you two to uh-whatever you were doing." then he walked away.

As he quickly disappeared down the hall, Blaine and I had bursted into fits of laughter.

"That...was...embarrassing!" I said between laughs.

"He'll get over it." Blaine replied breathlessly.

As our laughter died down Blaine said "you ready to meet the rest of the family?"

"Let's do it" I replied as I slipped my arm in his.

We continued down the hallway and we soon entered a room littered with people throughout the room.

Blaine's mother greeted us again. "I apologize for leaving the two of you so abruptly, I had to tend to something in the kitchen. Now may I ask again who this beautiful woman is?" as I saw her gesture towards me.

"She's my girlfriend, Rachel."

I watched as her facial expression changed from happy to confused then to happy again. "Well I'm pleasured to meet you Rachel, I'm Grace" and she held her hand out to mine, which I gladly shook.

"Why don't we introduce you to our other relatives."

After shaking a couple of hands and chatting with a few of them Blaine excused himself to the washroom and I started to feel very alone. But that was fugacious considering that Blaine's mother had approached me and said, "I'm sorry if my reaction to you earlier was offensive. I've just come to terms that my little Blainey-boo was gay."

"It's fine, don't worry about it! I thought that he was gay too until he came along and swept me off my feet." I replied with a laugh that I hoped didn't sound to fake.

She smiled and asked, "How did the two of you meet?" I recalled what Blaine had told me earlier and replied by saying "we just met through friends and-" then I was interrupted as Blaine appeared beside me and said "so what are we talking about?"

"Well, Blainey…boo" I drew out the last vowels "I was just telling your mother how we met."

I saw Blaine's face turn into a scowl. "Mom, did you really have to tell her your nickname for me?" He sounded like a little five year old.

"Of course I did, so that she could call you that too." she replied with a smile.

All I could do was laugh and say, "Don't be so sad Blainey-boo!" and I pinched his cheek softly.

"I'll just leave you two lovebirds for a bit, need to check on dinner." and she walked away.

I felt the heat creeping into my cheeks. Did we really look like we were together?

"Rachel!" I heard someone shout. I turned to find Blaine's cousin Adaline gesturing for me to go towards her. I smiled and walked towards her with Blaine following behind.

She was seated on the couch and I saw that picture albums surrounded her. She patted the seat next to her as I approached her. "You have to see the pictures of Blaine when he was a baby!"

I sat down next to her and gazed at the pictures of a little boy with curly hair doing the cutest things. All I could do was laugh and smile at the pictures.

I forgot Blaine was looking over my shoulder until he said, "Wasn't I the cutest baby you've ever seen Rachy...boo?"

I turned to him and said "I was cuter" and I heard Adaline laugh. I turned back towards the pictures and as I finished looking through the album I reached for the other one next to me but Blaine was quicker and grabbed it. "Sorry Rachel, these pictures are confidential."

"Really now?" I said as I stood up and turned around. I leaned against the couch and soon Blaine's face was millimeters from mine. "How confidential?" I whispered seductively.

"Well...uh..." I smiled as I realized that the closeness of our faces was making him nervous.

Now's my chance

I quickly grabbed the album from his hand and sprinted down the hallway from where we entered. I was pretty sure I heard Blaine fall over the couch as he tried to grab the album back but all I could concentrate on was running. I turned left and ran up the staircase and into the nearest room and locked the door.

I was breathing heavily as I leaned up against the door. I was tired but I felt a sense of victory as I realized I had gotten the album.

I caught my breathing and realized I was in Blaine's room. It was neatly organized with a few posters on the wall and a guitar on his desk. I didn't know he played.

I walked towards the guitar and ran my fingers over it. Which reminded me of the album in my other hand. As I opened it to the first page it said Blaine Anderson in cursive.

I traced my finger over the edge of the page but before I was able to see what was on the next page, two arms encircled around my waist, which caused me to drop the album and shriek. "Got you now Missy." I heard Blaine say and he lifted me into the air, which caused me to shriek again. I soon found myself pinned underneath Blaine's body and his bed. What a familiar situation.

Our laughter died down and I found that our faces were getting closer and closer.

Then the sound of a door swinging open and the voice of Adaline say "dinners ready! Get your butts down-oh...uh...uhm...never mind. Just uh-carry on." and I heard her descend down the stairs at a remarkable pace.

I think I heard Blaine grumble very quietly or it was just my imagination but he got up and offered me his hand to help me up.

As we walked downstairs all I could think was how wrong it was to want to kiss Blaine. But weren't boyfriends and girlfriends supposed to kiss? Then again...Blaine wasn't my legitimate boyfriend. But why do I get the feeling he wants to kiss me too?
