"I don't know, Blaine." Kurt said, wringing his hands nervously and wiping at his eyes, Blaine wrapped his arms around Kurt's torso and kissed his shoulder.

"Calm down, I'm sure she'd be thrilled."

"B-but what about my mom? Would she want me...r-replacing her?"

"Oh, no, sweetie," Blaine cooed "You're not replacing her. If I've gathered anything from what you've told me about your mother, It's that she wants you to be happy no matter what." he smiled and hugged Kurt a little tighter "You need a mother, Kurt, and Carole already loves you like a son." Kurt let out a harsh breath and turned to hide his head in Blaine's shoulder

"Thank you."

oOo

Kurt sat on the couch, reading, as Finn watched a basketball game. He looked up and bit his lip, he cleared his throat and called,

"Finn?"

The larger teen looked over at him

"yeah?"

"I...I have to ask you something." he said, his voice trembling slightly. Finn picked up the remote and turned the volume down

"Are you okay?" he asked "nobody's messing with you, right? Oh my god...did you and Blaine break up?" Kurt smiled

"No, no everything's fine. I just wanted to ask you first."

"Shoot." Finn said

"I've been thinking lately, and, our parents have been married for a year...I was wondering...if it would be okay with you...to maybe start calling Carole 'mom'?" he ended on an uncertain note, his voice evening out. Finn instantly smiled,

"Of course you can! She'd love that, dude!" Finn got up and pulled Kurt into a hug. Kurt laughed and hugged him back.

oOo

Kurt had asked to help Carole with dinner. Thoughts had been milling around in his mind, how was he going to tell her? Should he ask her if it was alright? He wanted to have a plan. But all those plans were shot to hell as she handed him a bowl and he said

"Thanks, mom." he froze.

"You're wel-" she froze. They looked at each other, her eyes wide, and his cheeks flushed. "Honey?" she asked, her eyes welling up, and a smile beginning to form on her lips

"I...I just thought, that, I mean, If it's okay...I'd like to call you 'mom'" he shrugged "I think of you as a mother so..." she smiled fully, now, and gathered him up into her arms.

"Oh, sweetie, of course it's okay! You've never had to ask." she sniffed and laughed a bit "I'm so happy, Kurt." He giggled and hugged her back, pressing his face into her shoulder.

"Me too."

This is kind of to make up for all the sad in the last chapter. And you get two updates tonight! Wee! Anyway, I just have a lot of Hudmel feels (and I don't like canon Finn...soo)
