Blaine's head was pounding. It was 3:30 am and Blaine's mind was still buzzing with the events of that night.
His phone buzzed on his desk with a text message. He held his breath as he opened it.
From Kurt: Sorry to bother you! I know you want space but I just thought I should let you know that I'm here until Sunday if you want to talk.
Blaine hadn't even finished reading it before Kurt sent another text.
I just want you to know that I'm not expecting anything and if you want me to leave you alone I will. And sorry if I woke you up.
Blaine stared at the words. Why was this just making it harder? He needed Kurt in his life but Blaine was terrified of getting hurt again if he let him back in. They definitely needed to talk.
Even though he knew he shouldn't, he sent a text back to Kurt.
From Blaine: Couldn't sleep. I do want to talk. Can you come over around noon?
The answer from Kurt came immediately. YES.
Blaine wanted so badly to hear Kurt's voice again but he knew that calling Kurt would be counterproductive. He set his phone down and pushed it away from him. He would wait until they could be face to face to talk.
It was well after 6:00am when Blaine drifted off.
Blaine recognized his surroundings immediately. This park had been such a big part of his childhood.
Kurt pushed a familiar little girl on the swings as she giggled.
"Just a little bit longer, baby girl, then we have to get home. Your Papa made you a very special dinner tonight and we have to make sure he hasn't burned down the house. We have some very exciting news to tell you," Kurt's eyes shone with wistful excitement.
"What kind of news, Daddy?" The girl turned her head to try to look at Kurt while she was propelled forward.
"Good news, sweetie," Kurt promised.
"Daddy, tell me!" she whined.
"No whining, Alice," Kurt scolded playfully. "Are you ready to go home and see Papa?"
"Yes, Daddy can you stop me please?"
"Of course, honey," Kurt said with a fond smile. It was clear that his little girl had Kurt wrapped around his finger. Blaine smiled at the preciousness of this moment.
Her little hands stretched up as high as they could go. "Up, Daddy?" She asked with the best puppy dog eyes Blaine had ever seen. Her hazel eyes shone with innocence. Blaine's heart melted as Kurt smiled and picked her up.
Blaine followed Kurt and Alice down the street. When they reached the same door from Blaine's nightmare, Blaine grew uneasy but he followed them in anyway.
"Alice," Kurt whispered as he set her down. "Why don't you give this to Papa," Kurt suggested as he handed her a flower he picked on the way home.
Blaine watched Kurt watching Alice skip off into the kitchen with a fond smile.
Please don't let it be Sebastian, Blaine pleaded. He did not think he could handle it if Kurt was happy with Sebastian.
"Hi Honey," Kurt cooed as he entered the kitchen.
Blaine was shocked and beyond relieved to find the dream version of himself standing in the kitchen wearing an apron and holding Alice. His daughter; his and Kurt's daughter. They were together and happy. It was the best feeling in the world as Blaine watched Kurt wrap his arms around Dream Blaine and Alice. Kurt took the flower from Alice's hand and tucked it behind Blaine's ear.
"Beautiful," he murmured.
"You are," Dream Blaine stated as fact.
Kurt smiled softly and kissed Blaine gently on lips.
Alice snuggled into Blaine's chest and said the six words that broke Blaine's heart with sweetness. "I love my Daddy and Papa."
Blaine awoke with tears streaming down his face but this time he wasn't sad. He was determined and suddenly everything was crystal clear.
Blaine was glad to see that it was already 11:00 am. Blaine jumped out of bed and raced to the shower. He was filled with nervous energy as he really scrubbed himself clean for the first time in a week.
Blaine did not have time to keep changing his outfits but that didn't stop him from doing it. Finally after the seventh outfit, Blaine decided it was good enough. He frantically cleaned his room as he checked the time ever few seconds.
Blaine's heart was pounding. His stomach churned with his excess nervous energy. He checked for Kurt's car every two seconds from his bedroom window.
Kurt finally pulled up to Blaine's house a few minutes before noon. Blaine watched him cut the engine and check his phone. He seemed unsure if she should go in early or wait. Kurt thought for a few moments and then got out of the car.
Blaine was somewhat comported to see that he was nervous too. Kurt fussed with his hair as he walked up to Blaine's door. Blaine raced down the stair so he would be the one to answer the door. Blaine waited five seconds after Kurt knocked to open the door. He didn't want to seem overly eager but he really wanted to see Kurt.
"Hi," Blaine exhaled.
"Hi Blaine," Kurt blushed. "You look really good," he complimented.
"Thanks," Blaine felt his face going red. "Um, we can go talk in my room."
Kurt nodded and followed him upstairs.
When they got to Blaine's room Kurt awkwardly opted to sit at Blaine's desk while Blaine sat at the foot of the bed.
"So…" Kurt trailed off awkwardly.
"I guess I should start," Blaine picked at a loose thread on his jeans.
Kurt nodded enthusiastically and waited anxiously.
"You sounded beautiful last night," Blaine bit his lip. He didn't want to talk about the past. All he wanted was to tackle Kurt and kiss him silly but he knew that they really needed to talk.
"I meant it. Blaine, you know what that song means to us. I'm so sorry," Kurt leaned forward and gripped the seat of the hair.
"Why are you sorry?" Blaine was confused. "I broke up with you."
"But I made you because I took you for granted and I see that now. I think I just got too comfortable with having you and too swept up in the excitement of New York."
"I still love you, I will always love you, Kurt but we need to figure out how to make this work. I can't keep feeling like burden to you."
"Blaine, you were never a burden! I'm sorry if I made you feel like one! Sorry, keep going, I'm listening," Kurt bit his tongue to keep from rambling on.
"I never wanted to lose you, ever," Blaine's eyes were filling with tears. "I was so lost without you."
"Me too, Blaine, you are my everything. We can figure this out. I'll do anything you want, just please be mine again," Kurt's eyes were water and his smile quivered as he fought against tears. "Can I be kissing you now?"
A smile broke across his face. There would be time to work out logistics later. "God, yes," Blaine breathed out.
Kurt was on top of him in a fraction of a second, kissing him intensely. Blaine's arms held Kurt tight against them as he deepened the kiss. Blaine had missed this. He'd missed Kurt's wonderfully soft lips, the way he hummed with happiness when Blaine kissed him. He'd missed the way Kurt tasted and how perfectly they fit in each other's arms. He'd missed pretty much everything about being with Kurt but he's missed feeling close to Kurt the most.
Kurt broke away to catch his breath but Blaine wasn't finished. He pulled off Kurt's scarf and kissed his neck. He sucked and nipped at the skin.
"I love you. I love you. I love you," Kurt chanted. Blaine could not hear those words enough.
They would be ok. Blaine knew that it would still be hard but this time he knew they could make it work.
"This was the worst week of my life. I'm so glad you're a part of my life again," Blaine murmured against Kurt's skin.
"Blaine you are the love of my life and I'm so serious about marrying you, some day. I'd marry you today if that's what you wanted but I know you want to wait," Kurt looked deep into Blaine's eyes to make sure he understood.
"Long distance relationships are really hard and I miss you all the time but you're worth it." Blaine believed it now. He'd spent a week without being able to call or text Kurt and it had been terrible. He never ever wanted to go that long without speaking to him.
Kurt's stomach growled loudly. Kurt hid his face in embarrassment in Blaine's shoulder.
"Sorry, I haven't really eaten anything for the past week." Kurt explained.
"I haven't either," Blaine admitted. "Come on, let's go to dinner and we can catch each other up on the past week and figure out what we're going to do," Blaine suggested.
"Sounds good. Can we go to Breadstix? I haven't actually eaten there in a while and it did bring us back together," Kurt smiled shyly.
"That was you, not Breadstix but yes, we can go there." Blaine brushed back a stray hair and kissed Kurt because he could do that again.
Kurt and Blaine held hands all the way to Breadstix and through their meal. It was as if someone had super glued their hands together with their fingers intertwined.
As they cuddled together on Blaine's bed, later that night, Blaine told him about the dreams he's had. Kurt cried as Blaine described the most recent one he's had.
"You saw our baby?"Kurt smiled widely as he could without crying. "Tell me about her?" Kurt asked.
"She was beautiful. She had my eyes but she looked like you."
"Ok so now, we're Lily and James Potter," Kurt teased with a kiss to Blaine's palm.
"I'm being serious!" Blaine pouted but he was smiling. "She had your smile and I swear she had killer puppy dog eyes and it's not our fault we were helpless to them,"
"She sounds perfect," Kurt hummed.
"She will be," Blaine affirmed.
In that moment Blaine knew they would make it. Absence had only made their hearts grow fonder and the break up had only made them stronger as a unit. Come what may, they were Kurt and Blaine and they were forever.
A/N: I might possibly do an epilogue but it honestly depends on how depressed I am after Glee tonight :'( We'll get through this together.
