Within a few weeks of telling the cast everything, the boys had decided that they had to come out. They started out small, letting people see them in public, while Darren still wasn't showing too much. Allowing the never ending rumours about them to spread without denying them. It was getting there but it was slow and they felt like time was running out so they decided that while Darren was on Ellen this week, he would come out, both as being gay and being with Chris.
Obviously Darren was nervous, he was basically telling the world that he has been lying for the last 18 months since he joined Glee. Also he was scared, scared of saying too much and letting out their other secret which would most definitely not be good!
The night before, Darren was really starting to freak out about what to say/do. "It'll be okay Dar" Chris smiled "How can anything be wrong when we don't have to hide anymore? Just try and remember how to breathe. Now let's get some sleep okay?"
"You're amazing baby" Darren whispered "I couldn't do any of this without you" Then they fell asleep wrapped in each other's arms both equally excited and nervous for the events of the following day.
The next day came all too quickly for the boys liking, but despite the dramatic changes to their lives that would come from today, it started like any other. Darren throwing up and Chris rubbing his back, trying to help. "Hell, this is one thing about being pregnant I could really do without" Darren mumbled "I hate being sick so much. It makes me feel like all you do is look after me"
"Shh baby, I'm here to look after you and our beautiful little baby in there" Chris pointed at Darren's stomach with a huge smile. "I wouldnt change that for the world. Please tell me you wouldn't either?" Darren chuckled softly and replied "Christopher Colfer there is a mini you inside there, of course I wouldn't change that. Although right now…" Darren took Chris's hand in his own and placed it over his stomach, "Right now, I wish it was a little less "us" and a lot more relaxed. I think I must be bruising from the inside out already."
At that, Chris felt movement against his hand. "Oh my God is that…"
"Why yes young sir, I do believe that is one small baby learning how to say hello to his daddy" Both men had tears in their eyes as they lay back against the headboard of the bed, hands still linked over their kicking child inside Darren.
"I think this is the proudest moment of my life Darren Criss. And I've won awards. I am so glad I get to share this with you" The two men leant in to a beautiful passionate kiss which was rewarded by a supreme kick from under their hands. Darren laughed "I think this little one likes it when its daddies are happy and kissing" Chris pressed their lips firmly together again and they just lay there for hours, enjoying the peace and tranquillity of being a private family one last time.
