CHAPTER 26: A HOME

Doctors Wild and Pierce came into Blaine's room and smiled when they saw Cooper and Sebastian with him. The young man was better and everyone close to him wanted to help him, so they thought it was a good time to send him home.

Cooper and Simon had a bedroom ready for Blaine in their house. They lived in New Jersey, but they worked in New York. They had a house there because they wanted to have a baby. They changed the guest room and was now for the younger Anderson.

Everyone asked Blaine to study for graduating and, after that, they got someone who helped him to be an actor in Broadway. Furthermore, he would take care of Ian and Em when he could.

Everything seemed fine, so the doctors were happy to send him home. "How do you feel today?" Taylor asked.

"Bored."

"Well, I have great news." Kitty gave him a paper. "You are going home. You are not recovered yet, because you still are depressed and we are worried about it. We are going to keep an eye on you. You'll take your pills and you'll do everything we ask you to do. Do you agree?"

"Sure." Blaine was excited. "I'll do anything."

"We'll meet twice a week. If you don't come without a good reason for it, I'll hospitalize you again. Do you understand?"

"I won't miss any, I promise."

"We want you to have this." Taylor gave him a notebook with shining colors. "This notebook will be very important. You'll have it with you and when you think something good about you, I want you to write it. I know you won't write too much at first because you don't have self-esteem, but it is our goal. I want you to realize you are a really good person."

"I don't know what can I write."

"You have time, you'll find something." Kitty gave him another paper. "This is my phone number. No matter the day, the hour… If you feel bad or want to do something that you shouldn't, call me. I'm here for whatever you need, I don't want to be called because you are like that again."

"I want to be better for the kids."

"You need to be better for yourself. Think for a moment, how will be your life in ten years? You'll live with the love of your life, maybe married. Ian and Emily are with you because you get to share their custody with Sebastian. You have a fourteen-years-old boy that understand what is happening and a ten-years-old girl that believe in fairies. What kind of father would they need, someone who depend on them or someone strong and a fighter? Then, before you realize it, they have twenty and twenty-four years old. How can your happiness depend on them? They will have their lives and, even if they love you, you won't see them as much as you would like. What will you do? Blaine, you need to find yourself. We don't want you to think that you are perfect, we want you to know your strengths and find a way to live and be happy." Taylor tried to explain what she wanted for him.

"I promise you I won't do it again."


Simon and Sebastian went to Blaine's apartment to move his belongings to Cooper and Simon's house. The brothers were in their house and they will take everything. However, the felt sick when they saw the place. They knew it usually wasn't so empty, that Ian's belongings were in the Smythe's house, but they felt bad for it.

There weren't a lot of furniture and the sofa was uncomfortable, but they knew it was the place where Blaine slept. The small wardrobe had all Blaine's clothes, most of them for work, something they rejected.

"We need to go shopping." Simon was sad.

"If you need money…"

"We don't. When we asked him to live with us, we knew it wasn't easy or cheap. I can't imagine how he felt… He is my family. I love Cooper and hated to see him so lonely… We didn't know what happened with Blaine, maybe their parents tough him to hate gay people. Seeing Cooper happy, protecting his brother… We've been trying to be fathers for three years and we weren't lucky enough. We are going to take care of Blaine as long as he need it. Thank you for your help, though. I think you are a good person."

"I think you don't know what happened between Blaine and me."

"I know it. I convinced Cooper that it was only a mistake. It's true it had awful consequence, but it was a mistake."

"A mistake that made me lost four years of my son's live, that made Blaine to try to commit suicide twice, that made him to stop studying, that made Blaine to work in…" Sebastian was so mad at himself. He didn't know why he was being so sincere with someone he didn't know, but he needed to say that.

"It's important to think about the future. It won't be easy, Blaine is really hurt, but if we show him our love, I know he will be better. The question is if you'll forgive yourself and fight for him."

"I love him and I want to be with him. I don't know if I can forgive myself."

"You need to, it's the only way both of you can be happy together. You know Brody it's just a friend, but it doesn't mean you don't have to fight. If you hurt him, Cooper, Brody, Brittany, Sam and I will make you to pay for every tear."

They finished packing everything because they wanted to have dinner with the Anderson Brothers.
