Kurt and Blaine decided to moved into Blaine' apartment. It was bigger, it had two bedrooms, so each one of them had one of his own. And they had their own beds, although neither Blaine nor Kurt was happy with it. They only spent a few nights with sleeping together but they got used to it so easily. It was like in those days when Blaine finally graduated from high school and he moved in with Kurt in Bushwick.
Blaine was the one who packed Kurt's things and carried them to his apartment. They decided to not change the furniture – although Kurt wasn't happy with leaving his bed and the living room furniture behind – and luckily, one of Kurt's co-workers heard he had moved out of the apartment and wanted to rent it. Kurt almost said 'no' but he had to accept that his life there was over, he won't go back and they could really use the money that guy wanted to pay for the place.
Now he was sitting alone in his new bedroom between his things and tried not to cry. He felt so lonely and so not home. He wanted his own bed, his own decoration. He missed the place where he had spent his past few years. He had worked so hard to get that apartment.
And it didn't help that Blaine was working late.
Kurt took a deep breath and stood up. He went into the living room and sat down in front of the television, he had to do something to keep his thoughts from wandering back to his place. It was the past now.
"It'll be fine" he said as he stroked his almost flat stomach. He wasn't sure if he wanted to assure his baby or himself.

Blaine ran up the stairs happily. He had great news and he knew Kurt would love it. He started searching for a new apartment a few days ago, when they decided to move in together. Yes, his apartment was bigger than Kurt's but they still needed a nursery and he wanted a better home for their child than his current place.
He got a call during the day. A man saw his advertisement and called him to let him know he had an apartment that he would like. Blaine went to see the apartment right after work. He knew the moment he stepped through the door that it was perfect. It was like the home of his dreams and he knew they could raise a child perfectly atx this place. And it had three bedrooms, so everybody could have his own, although Blaine hoped that there's a chance for him and Kurt to get back together. It was his next plan to make the man fall in love with him again. He needed Kurt, the past few years didn't changed this feeling. He decided to do everything to make Kurt realise they were meant to be.
On the way home, he stopped to get cheeseburgers for the pregnant man. He was thinking about buying flowers, too, but he was afraid it would be too much and didn't want to make Kurt uncomfortable.
He finally reached the front door of his apartment and opened the door quickly. His smile faded away in seconds as he found Kurt in the living room, curled up on the couch with a blanket that he brought from his old apartment with him. The man looked like he was crying or he was ready to cry, Blaine couldn't decide.
"Kurt? Are you okay?" he asked carefully as he stepped into the living room. Kurt looked up and forced out a small smile.
"Yes, I'm fine" he said but his eyes told Blaine he was far from fine.
"Tell me what's wrong" Blaine said and sat down beside Kurt.
"Nothing. Just the hormones. They make me want to cry a dozen times every day. Just give me a few minutes, I'll be okay" Kurt said and looked away. He really couldn't tell Blaine why he was so sad. But he felt it since the morning. Maybe he should have let himself cry and then he would be fine now.
"I brought you cheeseburger" Blaine smiled and tried to cheer Kurt up. He grabbed the paper bag from behind him and handed it to Kurt.
"Thanks" Kurt said and he finally smiled. He opened the bag quickly and grabbed the food.
"Better?" Blaine asked as he saw Kurt biting down happily. The man nodded.
"Yeah. I really needed it" Kurt replied.
"Well, I have some great news" Blaine continued. Kurt swallowed the food and looked at him in interest.
"And what is it?" he asked with a wide smile.
"I found a new apartment for us!" Blaine said excitedly. Kurt's smile dropped instantly.
"Oh" he pressed out. Blaine was so excited that he didn't see his response.
"You'll love it. It's really big, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, so we won't have to wait for each other in the mornings. It's on the third floor but don't worry, there's a big elevator in the house, we won't have to carry the stroller up the stairs..."
Kurt stared at Blaine with wide eyes as the man told him the details. It looked like Blaine planned their whole life, now speaking about how he'll teach their child riding a bike and cooking pasta. Kurt never thought about those things. He knew the baby won't stay in his stomach forever but hearing Blaine telling about the future made him panic. And reacting completely wrong.
"What are you talking about?" he asked almost angrily. Blaine fell silent immediately and looked at him in confusion.
"Is there something wrong?" he asked uncertainly.
"Of course!" Kurt shouted and jumped up from the couch.
"Kurt, please, calm down. It's not good for the baby" Blaine tried to calm him down. He stood up, too, and reached out to grab Kurt's hand but the man pulled away.
"I know what is good for the baby! You don't have to treat me like a child!" Kurt said. He knew he shouldn't let his emotions make him say these words, but he was in a really bad state now, he couldn't help it.
"I thought you'll like it" Blaine tried to explain. "I just want a better environment where we can live in peace and raise our child. What is wrong with it?"
He really didn't understand what Kurt's problem was. He thought the man would be happy.
"That's the big problem, Blaine. You always think that you know everything and act before you talk about it with me. That's why our relationship didn't work. I couldn't stand that you always decided what we should do and expected from me to nod assent. But I'm an adult now and won't let you tell me what I should do" Kurt said and rushed into his bedroom, slamming the door behind him.
"What the hell was this?" Blaine muttered as he stared at the door of Kurt's room. Sometimes he couldn't understand the pregnant man.
~ o ~
"Kurt! Open the door!" Blaine shouted as he knocked on Kurt's door two days later. He didn't know what got into Kurt but it was insane. The man wouldn't talk to him and only left his room in the past two days when he had to use the bathroom or he was hungry but he never talked to Blaine, didn't even look at the man.
"Go away!" Kurt called out of the room.
"No!" Blaine said. "I don't know what the problem is, so please, talk to me."
"I don't want to talk" Kurt replied.
"Please, just tell me why you're so angry. You know I'm really bad in these things" Blaine pleaded. He didn't hear the footsteps, so when the door opened in front of him and an angry looking Kurt rushed out, he didn't step back in time and Kurt came up against him. The man pushed himself back fast and pointed his index finger on Blaine's chest.
"So you don't know what my problem is?" Kurt asked. Blaine gulped as he saw the pregnant man's furious look and stepped back to get some space between them.
"Uh... No?" he asked carefully.
"I hate it when you make a decision without me!" Kurt shouted.
"Okay" Blaine said quietly. "Is this about the apartment I found? Because there's nothing decided yet. We don't have to move if you don't want."
"Well, I don't want to!" Kurt said, still angrily. "I don't want to move again, I don't want to speak about nurseries or strollers or baby clothes! I loved my life, I don't want to change everything!"
Blaine finally understand. Kurt got scared from the changes in his life and with the pregnancy hormones, it made him crazy. Okay, not crazy, just... really wrathful.
"I think I understand" Blaine said gently. "Can we... can we go to the living room and talk about it like adults?"
Kurt took a deep breath and nodded. Blaine let out a shaky breath. Finally, he managed to get out a response from Kurt without yelling. He went to the couch and waited for the other man to follow him. They sat down almost at the same time. Blaine remained silent, he knew Kurt'll start talking soon, he gave him time.
"It's just... When I moved here, I realised that it is real. That my life changes... and won't change back" Kurt started. Blaine took his hand and squeezed it. Kurt looked up and smiled sadly. "I think I'm scared. I was 100 percent sure that I want to keep this baby but I never thought about how it'll change everything. I won't be free anymore. I can't go home late after work and fell asleep on the couch. I can't go out when I want to. I don't even know I'll be able to go out in the next eighteen years at all."
Blaine started laughing.
"That's it? Because I can promise you that I'll make sure you have enough time on your own" he said. Kurt shook his head.
"No, that's not really my problem. I... I'm scared of... the baby" he whispered, looking down, ashamed. "I don't even know how to change a diaper. What if I do something wrong? What if I won't be a good parent and the baby'll hate me?"
Blaine moved closer and reached under Kurt's chin, forcing him to look into his eyes.
"We'll make things wrong but that doesn't mean we'll be bad parents. I know you since high school and you're the most caring man I ever met. I know our baby'll love you."
Kurt stared at Blaine for a long moment before he let his tears finally run out of his eyes and down his cheeks, and threw himself into the man's arms.
"Hey, it's okay" Blaine tried to smooth him as he ran his hands up and down Kurt's back.
"I hate hormones" Kurt said when his tears died down.
"You're not alone with it" Blaine sighed.

What Kurt really hated in the pregnancy, was the morning sickness. It always came out of nowhere. One moment he was fine, but a second later he felt the need to empty his stomach. That morning wasn't other. Blaine asked him if he could use the bathroom to have a shower before work. Kurt thought he was fine and maybe the morning sickness avoided him. He was wrong. He heard the water running in the bathroom and went into the kitchen to prepare their breakfast. He was really hungry by then and took a few bites from the bread while he was waiting for Blaine to arrive.
Suddenly, he had the urge to throw up. He jumped up from his seat and ran to the bathroom with his hands over his mouth. He didn't knock, didn't have time for that. He burst into the room and ran straight to the toilet just in time.
"I'll... never have sex... again" he muttered to himself when he met his breakfast again.
"Kurt? What's wrong? How can I help?" Blaine asked as he stepped out of the shower hastily. He heard that Kurt was sick, so he grabbed a towel, dried himself off in a second and pulled on his boxers.
"Don't come near me, it's all your fault" Kurt groaned, still not looking up from the toilet.
"Do you need something?" Blaine asked and kneeled down beside Kurt.
The man was finally done with emptying his stomach and tried to stand up. Blaine grabbed his arm and helped him to the sink. After brushing his teeth, Kurt finally looked up at Blaine – and his jaw dropped. The man was standing in front of him in only his underwear, his hair and chest still wet from the shower.
"God" Kurt muttered as he tried to take his eyes from Blaine.
"Are you okay? You're really pale" Blaine said worriedly.
"Yeah, I'm fine" Kurt said but didn't really pay attention. He was too busy with reaching out to touch Blaine's chest and running his fingers down the smooth skin. "You weren't so muscular when we dated."
"I know" Blaine laughed and didn't pull away from Kurt's touch. "I started working out after we broke up. I didn't know I can become like this."
Kurt licked his lower lip and nodded.
"You look really good" he said. He knew he should have taken off his eyes of Blaine's body but he couldn't. Blaine was still really attractive and with the hormones messing up his mind it was pure torture that he couldn't just push the other man up against the wall and kiss him.
"I... I should get ready... for work, I mean" Blaine mumbled and tried to focus on what he had to do instead of Kurt's beautiful eyes on him.
"Yeah, yeah, you should. I'll leave you alone" Kurt said and finally tore his eyes away from Blaine. He stepped to the door but turned back before he left. "We should go and see that apartment you found. After the ultrasound tomorrow. Is it okay?"
"Yes" Blaine nodded happily.
When Kurt left the bathroom, he quickly closed and locked the door and leaned against it. Maybe because he didn't have sex in the past three months, or because Kurt was the hottest pregnant man in the world, but his touch was enough to make Blaine painfully hard. He let his hand wander down to his member and thought about Kurt as he moved his hand up and down fast. He came only minutes later and had to bit his lip to not cry out Kurt's name.

Blaine joined Kurt the next day when he had to meet Sebastian again. This ultrasound was really important, Sebastian checked if the baby has every vital organs, it's length and heartbeat. Everything was fine, the baby was healthy, and much to their delight the heamatoma disappeared completely. Which meant Kurt was able to leave the apartment again.
"I so wanted to find out the gender" Blaine sighed as they walked slowly towards the house where Blaine found them the new apartment.
"We only have to wait a few more weeks" Kurt replied. "I think it's a girl."
Blaine raised an eyebrow.
"You know I don't believe in intuitions, right?" he asked. "But I think it's a boy."
"Well, we only have these two options" Kurt said.
"I can't wait to buy the clothes. Did you see the Zara baby collection? Those little clothes are so cute" Blaine said. Yes, maybe he went into a few shops in the past days and maybe he even bought a few clothes... But Kurt didn't have to know. "Oh, we're here."
Kurt looked up at the building. It was an 8-storey house, only built a few years ago. It looked completely new. There were security cameras at the entrance and a security guard on the street level. Blaine looked out the right name in seconds and pressed a few numbers. They could hear the bell ring and soon, the owner let them in. Blaine led Kurt straight to the elevator and within a minute, they were on the third floor, in front of the right door.
"Mr Anderson! It's good to see you again" the owner greeted him and turned to Kurt. "And he's your husband?"
"Uh, no, he's..." Blaine started but stopped as he didn't know how to introduce Kurt.
"Kurt Hummel, I'm Blaine's boyfriend" Kurt said easily. He saw how uneasy Blaine felt.
"Can we see the apartment, please?" Blaine asked hastily. He didn't want more questions about their relationship.
"Of course" the man said and let the men in.
Blaine grabbed Kurt's hand and show him around. He showed him the kitchen, the living room, two bedrooms and the bathrooms and finally, the smallest room in the apartment. Kurt felt really bad because he yelled at Blaine the other day. This place was perfect.
"I think this one could be the nursery" Blaine said quietly. "There's enough place for the crib, there we could place a rocking chair..."
"I love it" Kurt cut him off.
"Well, it was just my first thought, we still have enough time to talk about the nursery..." Blaine said but Kurt didn't let him finish.
"I meant the apartment. It's beautiful, Blaine" Kurt said and took the man's hand.
"So you think we should rent it?" Blaine smiled.
"Absolutely" Kurt nodded.
Blaine turned around to take a good look at the whole place. It'll be great to live here with Kurt and the baby.
What do you think, are they expecting a boy or a girl? What would you like?:)
