Kindergarten

"Daddy, Papa, Wake Up! Waaake Uuuup!"

Carter jumped happily on his fathers' bed, the two men stirring awake from the sound and movement.

"Hey buddy." Kurt pulled Carter into his arms, tickling him and kissing his head.

"wasgoinon?" Blaine slurred together. Kurt and Carter both chuckled and Carter crawled over to place a sloppy kiss to his father's cheek.

"Don't be silly daddy." He said, laughing. "You have to wake up! Today's a special day." The last part he said very matter-of-factly.

Blaine sat up and smiled to himself. You could definitely tell that Carter was Kurt's. He had light brown hair, pale skin and a light smattering of freckles over his nose and cheeks. The biggest similarity, though, was his eyes; big, bright and blue. The two were surprised at how little he looked like Blaine's sister, who had offered to be a surrogate.

"And why would that be?" Blaine teased, pulling Carter up onto his lap.

"Because, I'm going to Kinder today." He poked his dad in the chest to emphasize his point.

Blaine let out a mock gasp and brought a hand to his chest where he had been poked. He then pounced on Carter, tickling him and placing raspberry's on his tummy.

Kurt smiled at the two interacting. He didn't think he'd changed much since high school, but Blaine definitely had. His whole body was more defined, his arm muscles slightly larger. His face was creased with laugh lines, and the shadow on his chin made him look positively delicious. His eyes hadn't changed. They still sparkled when Blaine looked at Kurt, just like that day on the stairs.

Kurt still thought he could look at them for hours on end.

"Alright you two, it's time to get ready. Up." Kurt shoo'd the two out of the bed and the bedroom. Carter skipped happily along the hallway, Blaine and Kurt linking hands and following after him.

Blaine yawned and Kurt smiled, bumping into him slightly.

"Come on, I'll make breakfast." Kurt said, shoving him along.

"Do you have everything?" Kurt asked, kneeling down and straightening Carter's bowtie. The little boy nodded and stood tall, trying not to squirm while his father messed with his clothing.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, papa. I've got everything. Can we go now?" He asked excitedly.

"Okay, okay. Blaine?" Kurt called into the house. Where the hell did Blaine go?

"I'm coming, and I made you coffee." He said, walking over to Kurt and handing him a travel mug.

"Alright, you ready?" Blaine said, picking up Carter and resting him on his hip. Carter nodded enthusiastically and wrapped his arms around his father's shoulders.

"Careful of his hair!" Kurt said, moving to stand with the pair, a hand resting on the small of Blaine's back.

"Don't worry papa, I'll be careful."

"Alright then, let's go you two!" Kurt smiled at Blaine and Carter, grabbing Carter's bag and locking the door on the way out.

The family of three walked into the kindergarten centre hand in hand, Carter smiling up at the building from between his dad's.

"Daddy, Papa, look!" He shouted excitedly, tugging on their hands.

The two men just laughed at their over-excited son and let him run ahead of them to the building. They let their hands join and Blaine pressed a kiss to Kurt's cheek before heading inside after their son.

The went to the reception desk and spoke to the lady who had already helped them enrol into the school, and soon they were being pointed into the direction of one of the rooms where they were going to meet Carter's carer; someone named Sebastian.

They smiled as they walked into the room, hearing the screaming kids. Kurt was nearly toppled over by a line of children who appeared to be playing tag. Carter looked around with big eyes, taking in all of the new surroundings.

"I'll be there in a second." A voice called out from a figure who was crouched on the floor tending to a crying child.

Both men froze, and Kurt's grip on his hand tightened.

"Blaine?" Kurt said, not taking his eyes off the man who was still talking to the small child. "Do you recognise that voice?"

"And the name…" Blaine turned to look at Kurt's concerned face.

"And the… hair?"

Just then the man turned around to look at the couple, smiling widely and walking up to Carter, kneeling and holding out a hand.

"Hi, I'm Sebastian. You must be Carter."

Carter nodded and shook his hand sloppily, smiling brightly at the man.

"And these must be your dads." Sebastian stood up and looked at the couple, smile instantly fading.

"Kurt and Blaine?"

"Sebastian Smythe." Kurt said, eyebrow arched. Blaine had to hide a smirk. Kurt almost looked as though he had turned back into the high school version of himself.

"Uh, well… this is awkward." Sebastian brought a hand up to scratch at the back of his neck.

"Hey buddy, how about you go and find some kids to play with?" Blaine said, kneeling down to kiss Carter on the check.

"Okay, daddy. Bye Bye Papa." Carter waved to the two men before running over to another boy who was playing with a toy truck. Kurt smiled slightly watching his son interact with the other child, almost forgetting exactly who was standing in front of him.

"Well, fancy seeing you to here." Sebastian said, smile friendly and warm. Wait, that's not right. Where's the smirk? Kurt thought to himself.

"Uh, yeah. Well I wanted to get back to working because I missed the office, and Blaine teaches at a high school so I had to be the one to work from home. We figured that now that he's old enough, we'd put Carter into Kindergarten."

"He's adorable, you guys are lucky." Sebastian smiled at the identical looks of adoration on Blaine and Kurt's faces, and glanced at the children playing before redirecting his attention to the couple.

"Yeah, we are. So what about you? Kindergarten? I never would have thought that this would be your scene." Kurt said, raising an eyebrow at the man.

"Oh, well you see, that's where your problem is, Kurt. You shouldn't assume things." Sebastian said, almost coyly. Blaine looked between the two, thinking about how much they both seemed to revert to their old selves, the only real difference being the lack of intentional harshness. It was almost… flirtatious.

Blaine's grip on Kurt's hand tightened and he stepped impossibly closer, feeling his possessiveness kick in.

"You didn't answer my question, Smythe."

"I always wanted kids, but never kept a relationship long enough to even consider it. I guess I thought that working with kids would be the next best thing."

"Makes sense. It sucks about the whole relationship thing though. A little bit typical Sebastian, don't you think?"

The two chuckled and Blaine tried to smile, but it faltered quickly. If Kurt noticed, he didn't mention it.

"Well, we should probably get going. I don't actually start back at work for a few days, so call me if anything's wrong. Here's his bag." Kurt handed over a business card and Carter's backpack and then took Blaine's hand again.

"I'm sure he'll be fine. He looks like he's already made a friend." Sebastian smiled at the child, and then looked back to the couple.

"Carter," Blaine called. "Come and say goodbye to daddy and papa."

The little boy ran over to the two men, and Blaine lifted him up and rested him on his hip.

"See ya buddy!" Kurt said, moving to wrap his arms around the pair.

Sebastian stood back and watched the family, smiling to himself. Kurt and Blaine really were perfect for each other.

He made a mental note to apologise for his high school shenanigans, but that could wait. For now he would just let them say their goodbyes.
