Chapter 8- Family

"Oh my Gaga," Kurt gasped in disbelief when James, Blaine's dad, pulled into the Anderson's driveway the next day. Blaine smiled and squeezed Kurt's hand in his gently.

"Like it?" Blaine asked with a smile. Kurt was blown away. Blaine's house was huge. It was like the house you'd expect someone famous like Lady Gaga would live in.

"Like it? I love it! It's not what I expected at all, to be honest," Kurt confessed, smiling at Blaine.

"Wes and David said the same thing when I bought them here for the first time a year ago. It's big because Dad's a lawyer and Mom's a Broadway star. I get my voice and love of singing from Mom," Blaine said still smiling. Kurt was blown away by how amazing Blaine's family was.

"Really? That's amazing! Do you mind me asking what shows you've been in, Mrs. Anderson?" Kurt asked as he got out of the car with Blaine, James, Kate and Cora. Darren had gone to see his girlfriend, Jenna.

"Please call me Kate. Kurt and I don't mind telling you what shows I've been in. I've been in Rent, Mamma Mia, Cats, Wicked, Hairspray and Oliver. I loved it but I haven't performed since Cora was born though. Five years away from the stage but I don't miss it much. I'd rather spent time with my babies. They've got their father's brains but they have my passion for performing. Darren's a song writer, Blaine's a singer and Cora's a dancer," Kate said with a contented sigh as James opened the front door and disappeared upstairs. Kate's smile faded at the sight of her husband disappearing upstairs. Blaine noticed his mother's smile fading. Kurt didn't.

"Cora can dance?" Kurt asked as he followed Blaine and the others inside Blaine's home.

"Yep! I'm a good dancer, Kurtie, and I can sing like Blaine too! Mommy, can we go on the karaoke machine!" Cora begged, dragging Kurt into the living room.

"Sure sweetie. Blaine, put it on for her please," Kate said, walking towards the kitchen. Blaine grabbed his Mom's arm gently.

"Mom, are you okay?" Blaine asked.

"I'll be fine Blaine. Don't worry, sweetie. I'm fine," Kate assured her son, kissing his cheek before walking into the kitchen to prepare dinner. Blaine sighed and followed Kurt and Cora into living room. Kurt sat on the sofa. Cora was in front of him with two CDs asking him to pick a song for her to sing. Blaine smiled and set up the karaoke machine for Cora.

"Fight for This Love by Cheryl Cole. I like that song," Kurt said, smiling at Cora.

"Yay! I'll sing for you, Kurt," Cora said, smiling. Blaine put the song on for Cora before going to cuddle up with Kurt on the sofa as Cora started to sing.

"Cora's got a great voice and I like your family," Kurt said smiling as Cora sang. Blaine sighed.

"What's wrong?" Kurt asked.

"My family," Blaine answered, snuggling up to Kurt.

"What about it? It seems perfect in my eyes." Kurt said kissing the top of Blaine's head.

"It's broken though. Mom and Dad don't talk any more. Dad locks himself in his study going over his cases but if he doesn't have a case he's at the bar. He's ripping Mom apart. Mom's trying to be strong for me, Darren and Cora but me and Darren can see through the act she's putting on. That's why I can't say anything about Jason coming to see me. The whole thing with Jason two years ago really messed up our family. Before Jason, we were okay but after Jason, Dad started having an affair with some girl he worked with which pushed Mom over the edge she had a mental breakdown. Dad finished his affair and they act like a happy couple for Cora's sake," Blaine whispered into Kurt's ear as tears started to fall down his cheek. Kurt was the first person Blaine had told about what was going on at home. Kurt kissed Blaine's lips tasting his salty tears as he did so. Cora finished singing and turned round to see Blaine crying and kissing Kurt. Cora looked at Blaine.

"Blainey... Don't be sad. What's the matter?" Cora asked slowly walking toward Kurt and her brother. Blaine pulled away from Kurt and saw the worried look on his little sister's face. He gave her a reassuring smile.

"Happy tears, Cora. I'm happy," Blaine said, picking Cora up as she got close to him and cuddling her. Cora smiled. Kurt smiled before he picked up the karaoke CD picking a song to sing.

"Cora can you do me a favour? Will you put Parachute on the karaoke machine for me? I want to sing it to your brother," Kurt said smiling at Blaine. Cora jumped off Blaine's knee.

"Yeah I love that song! Put it on, Blainey! I want to hear Kurt sing!" Cora said pulling at her brother's hand. Blaine laughed and got up putting the track on before handing Kurt the microphone. Blaine sat back down on the sofa and Cora cuddled up to him as the song started. Instead of facing the television, which had the words to the song, Kurt turned to face Blaine. He knew the words to Parachute by heart so he sang looking at Blaine.

I don't tell anybody about the way you hold my hand

I don't tell anyone about the things that we have planned

I won't tell anybody, won't tell anybody

They want to push me down

They want to see you fall (down)

Won't tell anybody how you turn my world around

I won't tell anyone how your voice is my favourite sound

Won't tell anybody, won't tell anybody

They want to see us fall, they want to see us fall (down)

I don't need a parachute

Baby If I've got you, Baby If I've got you

I don't need a parachute

You're gonna catch me, you're gonna catch if I fall

Down, Down, Down

Kurt stopped singing at the sound of Blaine's front door slamming shut. Kurt looked at Blaine. Cora got up from the sofa and walked out of the living room to see what was going on. Kurt put the microphone down and walked over to sit next to Blaine.

"Darren's home!" Cora called back into the living room. Blaine breathed a sigh of relief taking Kurt's hand in his as Darren walked into the living room with Cora in his arms.

"Cora honey, do Mommy a big favour and go upstairs while I talk to Blaine," Kate said as she entered the living room. When Darren put Cora down, Cora did as she was told and ran upstairs leaving Kurt, Blaine, Kate and Darren alone. Blaine was breathing heavily. Kurt could hear it he squeezed Blaine's hand.

"So Blaine, when were you going to tell you Dad and me that before you tried to OD, Jason came to the house to see you?" Kate asked. Blaine was shaking so Kurt squeezed his hand tightly to let him know that everything would be okay.

"How did you find out he was here?" Blaine asked, trying not to break down in tears.

"Jenna's sister, Chloe, is Jason's girlfriend. Jason told Chloe and Jenna that he'd been to see you and Jenna told me so I called Mom and told her," Darren said, sitting down across from Blaine and Kurt.

"Thanks a lot, Darren! I didn't say anything because nothing happened! He came round and just said stuff! He didn't touch me!" Blaine shouted. Kurt was taken aback. He'd never seen Blaine this angry before.

"Blaine, calm down. Darren told me because he was worried about you, and I'm worried too. Is this the first time Jason's come to see you?" Kate asked.

"Today was the first time in two years. I swear. I'm gonna take Kurt home, okay?" Blaine said with a sigh, taking Kurt's hand pulling him up from the sofa gently.

"Blaine, wait. I'm not done talking to you," Kate insisted, looking straight at her son.

"Mom, not now. Not in front of my boyfriend! This is a family matter! I'm not having you ruin another relationship for me by talking about Jason. Let's go, Kurt," Blaine refuted, pushing past his Mom and leading Kurt to the front door and out.

"God, I hate him!" Blaine muttered as he walked to the car with Kurt.

"He's only trying to help Blaine. He's your big brother. It's his job to protected you," Kurt said, kissing Blaine's cheek before they got into Blaine's car.

"I know he is, but Mom's got enough on her plate. Now that he's told her about Jason coming to see me, she's gonna be even more stressed out. I just don't want her to have another mental breakdown. The last one nearly destroyed her," Blaine sighed before he started the car and drove Kurt back to Lima.

"Do you wanna stay for something to eat?" Kurt asked as Blaine pulled up outside Kurt's house. Blaine smiled at Kurt.

"I'd like that. I'm not ready to go home and face Mom right now. Plus, I don't wanna leave you. Is your dad gonna be okay with me staying for dinner? I don't want to impose," Blaine said with a small smile. Kurt kissed his lips.

"Dad and Carole won't mind. They like seeing you! Come on," Kurt replied, placing another kiss on Blaine's lips before climbing out of Blaine's car and shutting the door behind him. Blaine smiled climbing out of his car as well and smiling to himself as he closed the door and locked the car. The pair walked up the path hand-in-hand before Kurt opened his front door.

"Dad? Carole? Finn? I'm home!" Kurt called from the front door as Blaine shut it behind them.

"In the kitchen honey!" Carole called back. Kurt smiled and took Blaine's hand, pulling him towards the kitchen. Burt stood behind Carole with his arms around her as she cooked dinner.

"Hey guys. Do you mind if Blaine's stays for dinner?" Kurt asked with a small smile. Burt turned round to see his son in the doorway holding hands with Blaine.

"I thought you were having dinner at Blaine's? Blaine's Mom called before to say you were," Burt inquired, looking at his son.

"Sorry Mister Hummel, plans have changed. I can go if you'd rather me not stay for dinner. I was just bringing Kurt home like a good boyfriend," Blaine said, squeezing Kurt's hand tightly.

"Call me Burt, please Blaine, and course you can stay. I don't mind at all. Iwas just clearing things up," Burt reassured. Carole smiled in agreement.

"I'm making pasta for supper. I'll call you boys when it's ready," Carole said. Burt started setting the table while Kurt and Blaine left the kitchen and went down to Kurt and Finn's bedroom. The night of Kurt's accident was still fresh in Blaine's mind as he sat on Kurt's bed with him.

"Blaine? Are you okay?" Kurt asked.

"Yeah... it's just the last time I was down here was the night of your accident. It still hurts. That night was all my fault..." Blaine choked back tears. Kurt kissed his lips, holding him close.

"It wasn't your fault. That's the past we need to look towards the future. Everything's gonna be okay Blaine I promise." Kurt said kissing Blaine again. Blaine smiled.

"Ew! Could you guys, like, not make out down here?" Finn griped, breaking Blaine and Kurt apart. Kurt sighed.

"I'll say that to you the next time you and Rachel are making out down here! And we weren't making out we were kissing!" Kurt fired back. Blaine laughed a little.

"Mom told me to tell you two dinner is ready," Finn said before walking back upstairs.

"He annoys me sometimes," Kurt grumbled as he and Blaine walked upstairs to the kitchen.

"Now you know I feel with Darren. I love him one moment and I hate him the next!" Blaine said with a chuckle.

"I know brothers, hey! Blaine, I love you. You know that right?" Kurt asked as Blaine took his hand.

"I know and you know I love you too, right?" Blaine said squeezing Kurt's hand.

"I know. I love you so much. I never want to let you go," Kurt answered, kissing Blaine's lips as they approached the kitchen. Blaine put his arm around Kurt's waist and kissed his neck.

"You won't have to, 'cause I'm never gonna want another as much as I want you, Kurt," Blaine whispered as they walked into the kitchen. Kurt blushed which didn't go unnoticed by Burt.

"Why is my son bright red, Blaine?" Burt asked as Blaine and Kurt sat down at the table.

"Because I just told him I love him a lot and that I'll never want anyone but him. Don't worry, Burt. I'm a good boy I'm not gonna take advantage of your son, I promise," Blaine said, squeezing Kurt's hand.

"You better look after him, Blaine, 'cause if you hurt him I will load my shotgun and come looking for you. I promise you that," Burt warned as Carole served up the food. Kurt went an even deeper red.

"Dad! Don't threaten my boyfriend!" Kurt said embarrassed.

"Kurt, it's okay. Your dad's only being protective. He loves you a lot, and I understand Burt. I won't hurt Kurt so you won't need the shotgun," Blaine said squeezing Kurt's hand.

Dinner with the Hummel-Hudson family was different for Blaine, different because his own family dinners were nowhere near as nice. This was mainly because dinner at home for Blaine was quiet. Nobody spoke but Kurt's family dinners were different and Blaine liked it. After dinner, Kurt and Blaine cuddled on the sofa watching Moulin Rouge together and Kurt cried when Satine died and Blaine held him close as he sobbed. It was nice, just Kurt and Blaine alone on the sofa cuddling watching a movie together like a real couple, but all good things have to come to an end and soon Blaine had to go.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Kurt. I love you," Blaine said, kissing Kurt's lips as the two said their goodbyes by the front door.

"See you tomorrow night, Blaine. Be careful and text me once you're home. I love you, too," Kurt replied. Blaine smiled giving Kurt one last kiss before he walked down the drive to his car. Kurt waited until Blaine's car had pulled away before shutting the door. Kurt got himself ready for bed and waited for Blaine to text him. Two painful and worried hours later, Blaine texted Kurt.

"Hey baby. Sorry it's taken me so long to text you. I'm home safe and sound. Mom wanted to talk when I got in. She broke down crying over Jason coming to see me. It was horrible. Dinner with your family was nice though and cuddling on the sofa watching a movie together afterwards was amazing! I love you so much. Goodnight Kurt."

Kurt smiled before typing back his reply

"It's fine. And yeah the cuddling and the movie has to be the best part of tonight. Although I did enjoy singing some of Parachute to you. I have to finish singing that song to you."

Blaine texted back a reply a few minutes after Kurt had hit send.

"Stupid Darren made you stop singing! Sing the rest to me tomorrow? And I love the bits of the song I got to hear before Darren came in. You have the most amazing voice ever. I love it so much. Wes texted me before and asked me if you and me wanted to sing a duet together. I was thinking Endless Love since I know you love that song so much. What do you think? You want to sing Endless Love with me on Friday?"

Kurt heart stopped when he read the text from Blaine. Endless Love was the song he wanted to sing with Finn when he was hopelessly in love with his, now, step brother a long time ago. Kurt typed back a reply.

"I'd love to. I get Diana Ross's parts! I'm off to bed. Night Blaine I love you so much."

Kurt hit the send button and got under his covers. His phone buzzed a few seconds later. He smiled at his latest text from Blaine.

"I wouldn't dare steal Diana Ross's parts from you. Night Kurt. I love you so much too. I love you more than words could possible describe."

Kurt smiled before he put his phone back on the nightstand before he closed his eyes and let sleep claim him.
