CHAPTER 16: THE TRUTH

Blaine's legs were shaking when he knocked the door that Sunday to have a meeting with the Smythes. He was scared and he knew he couldn't fight. If they wanted to take the kids, he had no money to pay a lawyer while his ex would have the best in the city.

Marley opened the door and got worried. Blaine had a really bad face. He had eye bags because he hadn't slept and all his body were tense.

"Please, come in. Everybody is waiting for you. The kids are with the nanny because I want to be with you now… Are you coming alone? Why isn't a lawyer with you?" She asked softly.

"Do I need a lawyer?"

"Of course not! Don't worry, we'll look for the best for everyone. Have you slept?"

"Marley, how would you feel if Sophie's father come back and had so much money and support than he can take your daughter from you and you can't do anything?"

"I don't think they take Ian."

"Sebastian wants to have kids; did you know it? He was ready… But I wasn't, I was so young and naïve… I hadn't even thought about it. I don't… He knows…"

"Marley, Blaine; what are you doing there?" Julia came smiling.

"I'm sorry, Mrs Smythe." Blaine said without looking at her eyes. She felt her heart breaking when he realized how was Blaine. She didn't know what had happened with him, but she knew he wasn't the sweet and shy boy she had known.

"I asked you years ago to call me Julia. Let's go inside, we were waiting for you." They came into the living room, where Richard, Sebastian, Kurt and a lawyer were waiting for them.

"We can finish it quickly. He is the father, you can see the kid for a few hours and pay his school. I think it will be enough." Hummel said. He didn't want the boy and he wanted him to be with Anderson. A few hours and paying for the school wasn't a big deal, was it? There were cheap schools in the USA, weren't they?

"We are not in a hurry, I'm sure we can find a better solution. The boy had a big family, a cousin who wants to play with him, an aunt who want to be with him, two grandparents who want to enjoy to weekends like this one and a father who wants to meet them." Julia was annoyed because Kurt was selfish.

"Sebastian and I don't want children and we don't have to pay because his idiot wanted to get pregnant to have the Smythe's money." Kurt blurted out.

"We didn't talk about having a family. You talked and I just thought about it." Sebastian was angry. "I want the custody and I will fight until he's living with me, with a family who is going to love and take care of him." Sebastian looked at his ex-boyfriend's eyes for the first time. He couldn't believe that he had played with him and didn't say he was father. Blaine was shaking, he tried to breath and focused in not cry.

"Sebastian, honey… That kid has lived with Blaine and he doesn't know another father. You can't take Ian from Blaine, maybe you can both have the custody." His mother said.

"Do you really want a prostitute taking care of your grandson? Someone who sell his body and can risk his health? I can let it happen."

Everyone stared Blaine, who blushed. He was shaking and his heart was broken. He couldn't hold his tears anymore, so he cried. Julia was looking at him scared. He couldn't imagine someone so sweet and wonderful choosing that job. Mrs Anderson was working in an office, but in a lower job. Mr Anderson was a waiter in a select restaurant. They hadn't as much money as before, but they can live well. Richard has the same thoughts as his wife, but he wasn't sad about it.

The only one who felt bad for Blaine was Marley, she hugged him. She didn't know what had happened, but she knew Blaine, at least she thought so.

"You need to tell them." She whispered.

"I can't."

"Is there anything we need to know?" Julia caressed Blaine cheek.

"No…"

"Blaine…" Marley said, but she didn't get an answer because he felt sick and went to the toilet. He knew where to go, so he run there.

"That was rude." Kurt said.

"Nobody asked you." Marley was angry with him. When Blaine came back, he sat next to his friend. "Are you ok?" He shook his head. "Do you want some water?" Blaine nodded and she went to the kitchen.

After Blaine drank, he realized everyone was looking at him. "I…" He looked at Marley, who nodded to support him. "I'm pregnant."

"And that is our business because…" Kurt was annoyed.

"Because can be my son or daughter." Sebastian added, looking at his ex like it was the first time.

"But that means…"

"That I cheated on you a few times. Blaine is a prostitute and I paid for being with him."

Everyone was surprised, but didn't say anything. They talked about Ian a bit. Kurt was uncomfortable, Julia was interested in his grandson and Richard and Sebastian listened. The lawyer told Blaine that he needed a lawyer and about what they are going to do. After that, Ian and Anderson went to their house, with Blaine worried because he knew the war had just started.
