Chapter 3

After their date Kurt was a frequent visitor to the Duval home. Much to the displeasure of Olivia and Jeff. Jeff didn't like Kurt because Nick was meant to be his boyfriend, not Kurt's, his. Four weeks later Nick had taken Olivia and Thad to the park and Kurt tagged along to keep him company. "Why are there two jump ropes?"

"Double dutch, duh," Olivia and Jeff answered.

"Olive," Nick warned, he couldn't understand why she hadn't taken to Kurt but he had a feeling it had something to do with Jeff.

"Sorry," she mumbled. "Did you bring the song?"

"Yes I brought it," he said handing the ends of the ropes to Kurt, "it's real easy just follow my lead, just slowing they are kids," he grinned kissing him on the cheek and Jeff gagged. Nick hit play and they started turning the ropes and Olivia and Thad leapt into the middle, jumping perfectly in sync playing clapping games with each other while Nick smiled at their chants and Kurt looked bored. Wes and Jeff were sitting, watching and chanting along. When the children grew bored they ran off the play area and Nick and Kurt relocated to a patch of grass in the shade where they could keep an eye on them.

"So you really don't like him?" Thad asked from where they hung upside down on the monkey bars.

"Nope," she told him, "Nicky was supposed to date Jeffy and be happy. Instead he dates Kurt. Kurt doesn't like me."

"Why doesn't he like you?"

"He thinks I'm a little attention seeking brat who distracts Nick from him."

"How'd you know?" Thad asked confused.

"Me and Jeff overheard him on the phone once." She sighed. "Nicky hasn't read to me in three weeks. Jeff has but he doesn't do the voices like Nicky does," she said sadly.

"Kurt sounds mean." Thad said, "wanna go on the swings?" Olivia nodded and they flipped back to their feet and shook away the headrush before sprinting to the swings.

"Thad, promise me you won't ever date a mean person."

"I promise. Do you?"

"I promise too," she said watching Kurt kiss her brother.

"Guys, time to go," Nick called to them and they leapt off mid-swing. Their mom was out of town again, a side effect of receiving her promotion. Luckily since Thad was stopping over with Wes Kurt was not, making the excuse of 'family time.'

After the kids had been tucked up in bed Jeff woke Wes. *What now Jeff?* The Asian groaned.

*We are taking a little trip, come on,* he said not really giving him a choice.

*Where did that come from?* Wes asked as Jeff unlocked a car that looked suspiciously like the BatMobile.

*I took one of Nick's comics, Olivia imagined it for emergencies.* He shrugged. *We are going to spy on Kurt.*

*Jeff, can't you let that go?*

*There's something about him, it's not right but I don't know what it is. We are going to find out. Nick said he had a late football practice so we are going to the school.* At McKinley High school the boys headed to the changing rooms where the team were finishing up.

"So Kurt," they heard a voice, "you going through with it?"

"Of course I am, why wouldn't I? The amount of crap I have put up with around that guys bratty sister," Wes heard a protective growl escape Jeff, "I am not backing down. Is it all ready?"

"Yeah we just need to make sure you get elected, which will happen although Quinn will have my head for it Kurt," Finn his step-brother said.

"Trust me Finn, this will be worth it," Kurt assured him.

*What do we do now?* Wes asked.

*We have to get Olive to convince Nick.*

*Then we have no chance and they are gonna do God only know's what an humiliate him.*

*Damnit!* Jeff kicked the wall, *ow!* He held his foot.
