"Kurt Elizabeth Hummel!" Burt's voice boomed the second Kurt entered the house.
"Yes?" He said sweetly, entering the kitchen where his father was sitting at the dining table.
"You have a lot of explaining to do, Miser. Sit." He said, pointing to the chair opposite him.
"But -"
"Sit."
Kurt huffed and sat down opposite his father, slumping down in his seat.
"First let's start with the fact that Finn got home from the football game over two hours ago and you've only just walked through the door -"
"Dad, I -"
"I'm not finished," Burt said. "You've only just walked through the door, and Finn tells me you were with your boyfriend. Care to explain?"
"Dad, I..." Kurt sighed. He was going to kill Finn. "I know how it sounds, but I swear it's not like that at all. We've only been going out for two weeks and -"
"Two weeks!? And I'm only just finding out about this - and from someone else?"
"Tonight was only our third date," Kurt exaggerated. "I swear, I wasn't hiding it from you I was just waiting for the right time to tell you. We've only just started dating, so we could end up breaking up in two days time."
Burt sighed. "Okay, but if it 'isn't how it sounds' then where have you been for the past two hours?"
"I took Blaine home," Burt raised his eyebrow at that. "He lives in Westerville. I didn't go inside his house, okay? I drove him home, walked him to the door, said goodnight and then drove back home."
"And you didn't think to call me first?"
"I'm sorry," Kurt groaned. "I didn't think. I promise I will call you next time I take Blaine home after a date, now can you please stop interrogating me?"
"Fine," Burt said. "I want to meet him though."
Kurt groaned and hit his head against the table. "He's really shy."
"Everyone's shy when they meet their boyfriend's parents, or girlfriend's."
"No, but he's like...ugh."
Burt laughed. "Invite him to dinner on Friday, okay?"
"Fine." Kurt whined.
Kurt went upstairs and grabbed his phone, starting a new text chat with Blaine as Blaine had told him he didn't like speaking on the phone.
Kurt: My douche of a step-brother told my dad everything and he wants to meet you on Friday.
Blaine: What!? I can't meet your dad, I'm going to make a complete idiot out of myself!
Kurt: You're not. He'll love you, just be yourself.
Blaine: I don't know if you've noticed but I stutter MORE when I'm nervous, I'm barely going to be able to get a word out of my mouth.
Kurt: I can tell him about your stutter before Friday if you want? Or if you're really uncomfortable with the idea then I'll just explain to my dad that you're not ready to meet him yet.
Blaine: No, I'll be fine.
Kurt: Are you SURE? I don't want you to do anything you're not comfortable with.
Blaine: I'm sure. I promise :)
Kurt: Okay. It'll just be my dad, my step-mom (Carole, a.k.a Finn's mom) and Finn.
Blaine: I might die...
Kurt: I'll hold your hand the entire time and I'll kick Finn under the table for you if he's an idiot again :)
Blaine: How do you do that?
Kurt: Do what?
Blaine: Put a smile on my face even when I'm nervous or upset
Kurt: Magic :) Oh, what food do you like? I don't want the whole evening to turn into a disaster because my dad cooks something you're like, allergic to
Blaine: I'll eat basically anything that isn't meat
Kurt: You're a vegetarian?
Blaine: Yeah, I thought you knew that. I ordered the vegetarian pasta on our first date.
Kurt: Oh...I wasn't really paying any attention. But...why? I mean, I have nothing against it, I guess I've just always wondered why vegetarians ARE vegetarians.
Blaine: I don't know. I guess it's just that, you know...animals are living creatures too, just like us, and you wouldn't grab a random person off the streets, kill them, cook them and cover them in breadcrumbs would you?
Kurt: ...ew
Blaine: Yeah, that probably wasn't the best way to explain it...but you get my point. It's not fair that a living creature should get killed just so that we can eat it when there are plenty of other types of food that we can eat.
Kurt: In a weird, gross way, that's sort of endearing. Although my dad loves him some meat, so he's probably still going to cook it.
Blaine: That's fine. I have nothing against people who DO eat meat. You had meat on our first date and it didn't bother me.
Kurt: I guess...I just didn't want you to get offended or anything.
Blaine: Kurt...I can't even put into words how sweet you are sometimes...
Kurt: I'm glad we're texting each other right now because I'm blushing so hard
Blaine: See ;) Okay, I'm going to go to bed. It's getting late and I need my beauty sleep
Kurt: Me too, I have a murder to plan out tomorrow
Blaine: Just talk to him, see if he has a reason why he told your dad after you asked him not to
Kurt: Meh. You're too nice.
Blaine: :D
Kurt: Goodnight Blaine x
Blaine: Goodnight :) x
