Meet The Anderson's
Hey guys! It's been a while (very nearly 2 years!) and for that I'm extremely sorry. I've said it several times before in the notes of this story, including in Chapter 9 but I really need to learn to back up my stuff :/. Unfortunately after the last chapter my laptop completely died and I lost absolutely everything to do with this story an any other ideas that I had at the time. I did find the motivation to write some one shots and a story for the Blaine Big Bang but this story became a real sticking point for me. I couldn't seem to get the boys right and it was really annoying me which led to me losing any motivation I had to get this finished. Over the last few months though I've received a few messages about the fic and Forabeatofadrum wrote an awesome wrote an awesome oneshot about the boys during the 2016 Klaine advent (go read it I've left the link at the bottom!). Between that fic and the messages I've received I found my love for these boys again and have managed to create a timeline and remap out the whole story.
Hopefully there are some people who are still interested in this story even though it's two years later and Glee is long over now. Anyway I'm going to try and finish this off this time and I definitely have everything backed up several times over! Hope you enjoy and as ever let me know what you think.
Sing It For The World
"That's it! I give up, it is impossible to choreograph these guys!" Bentley glared around the group of glee club boys in particular, Blaine's shoulders shaking with the effort to keep in his laughter. "Nationals is in one week and you still look like a bunch of uncoordinated bumbling idiots."
Finn winced, "Benny we have to get this right. We can't lose our nationals trophy, not now."
Bentley mumbled under his breath, gaze sweeping around the sheepish looking choir group as the bell rang shrilly for first period. "Fine. Sam, Ryder, Joe, Sugar, Unique and Marley meet me in the auditorium as soon as lunch starts. Then all of you will meet me there after school and we will run through the entire choreography…again." Grabbing his bag from the floor he ran his hands through his fly away curls. "Look I can't sing for shit, but choreography? That's my game. I can dance up a storm and damn it I will pull all of you kicking and screaming along with me if I have to. We'll go all night if we have to."
"All night?" Artie whimpered watching Bentley and Kitty sweep out of the choir room door.
Blaine shrugged, well aware of how serious Bentley could be when it came to choreographing. He had watched numerous 'dance troupes' that Bentley had thrown together fall apart due to Bentley's growing frustration with their inability to pick up the moves fast enough. His brother never did quite understand why other seven year olds weren't also natural dancers. Sighing he grabbed his own bag, heading for his AP History class with Tina and Artie in tow. One more week and they would be in LA. One more week and Glee club as they knew it would be over forever, only the seniors last Nationals competition currently stood in their way.
Blaine trembled slightly as Jean Baptiste and the members of 'Throat Explosion' marched past the New Directions, each of them smirking and hollering as they went. The rest of the glee club stood in shock, mouths dropped open, watching their competition stride confidently for the elevator bank that would take them to the hotel rooms they were staying in.
Mercedes was the first to recover, coughing loudly and levelling each of the younger New Directions with an intense stare. "We have got to beat them."
"And we will…looks like we have our own cheerleader," Artie sniggered, watching the tall boy saunter across the lobby towards them, pulling off a pair of black Ray Bans with a grin.
"Kurt!" Blaine yelled, launching himself at his boyfriend and instantly locking lips with him, shooting Bentley the finger when the boy started fake gagging behind them.
Mr Schuester cleared his throat quietly, eyebrows rising when the two boys ignored him. Shooting Finn a look, he motioned towards the two teenagers. Finn raised his own eyebrow looking from his brother to Mr Schue and back again. Finally understanding what the older man was asking he shook his head vehemently, marching to the desk to check the group in. Mercedes shook her head fondly at the two lovers before following Finn to ensure he checked everyone in to the right rooms.
"Blaine, you're erm, you're going to have to erm, share a room with the rest of the glee boys," Mr Schuester said firmly, finally gaining the attention of the duo when Blaine pulled away from Kurt with a pout.
Kurt glared at the older man, glad to no longer call him a teacher, before pulling away and sighing, wrapping an arm around Blaine's waist. "No good staying with me anyway," He smiled squeezing Blaine's waist lightly before releasing him.
"Why not?"
"Blainey! Benny!"
"Oh dear god no," Blaine groaned, whipping around to see a hoard of his brothers enter the lobby. Quickly doing a head count, he frowned when he noticed three missing.
Kurt laughed gently, "Yep the second I said I was coming I suddenly had an entourage gate crashing my room."
Tilting his head he turned to Kurt curiously, "Why aren't they staying with Cooper and Austin?"
"Cooper kicked me out," Austin's voice boomed across the lobby as he and Pippin rounded the corner wearing matching Hawaiian shirts and board shorts, completing their outfits with large wicker hats. Blaine shook his head when his head count now showed only Cooper missing.
"I wonder why," Bentley muttered under his breath, eyeing the older twins outfits up and down with a horrified look. He yelped when Blaine elbowed him in the side and glared at him.
"Why?" Sam asked, grinning at the twins and high fiving them each separately.
Austin rolled his eyes and crossed his arms across his chest, dropping onto the arm of the armchair Marley was sitting in and winking at the girl to make her laugh, Blaine smacking him round the head and glaring at him steadfastly. "Apparently he has a super important audition and I'd just be distracting him," Austin grinned at his twin and rolled his tongue over his lip ring. "That and Pippin landed last night and we may have pissed him off a fair bit."
"There we go," Kurt muttered rolling his eyes and kissing Blaine's temple quickly before going to greet Finn and Mercedes at the counter.
Bentley frowned, eyeing each of his brothers as they filled out the relatively large lobby. "That still doesn't explain why you're all staying in Kurt's room though."
Noah beamed and slung an arm around Bentley's shoulders. "In the defence of your older brothers Sunshine," Bentley stomped on his foot and threw him a dirty look shrugging out of his hold when Noah laughed. "Lijah, Luc and I have our own room."
"Why don't the rest of you have your own rooms anyway?" Elijah asked, glancing around at each of his younger brothers and Ollie with a raised eyebrow.
"To be honest we weren't going to come. We managed to catch the flight with Kurt last minute," Jude grinned.
Reed, Pippin and Austin glanced quickly to each other with twinkling eyes, "Ditto."
"Because you losers couldn't afford to get your own rooms at any hotel in this city last minute," Blaine grumbled rolling his eyes.
Pippin chuckled softly pulling Blaine onto the couch with him. "But little brother this is just so much more fun!" Blaine laughed softly, allowing his head to fall to his big brother's shoulder.
"At least we let Kurt have the bed!" Reed grinned bouncing down on Blaine's other side and snuggling into his younger brother.
"Thank the lord for small mercies," Kurt muttered returning to the group with Finn and a bunch of room keys.
"Okay so boys you're in 1012 and girls you're in 1007," Finn smirked, "And Mr Schue, Mercedes and I all have rooms between you so don't try anything." The glee club grumbled lowly collecting all of their belongings and starting to head for the elevators.
Kurt glanced to the pile of brothers curled up on the couch and on the floor surrounding the couch catching up. He grinned at Blaine still snuggled up between Pippin and Reed looking half asleep but happier than he had during the last six weeks of their Skype sessions. Kurt could easily say from experience that Skype sessions made no comparison to an in person catch up, especially for someone like Blaine who responded to physical contact. Tossing his room keys to Austin he shot him a grin and followed Mercedes to the elevator bank, planning to help her pick out her outfit for the competition.
Kurt yawned and stretched in the early morning LA sun. He had fully been intending to sleep in after his first night in the City of Angels. This should have been his first day with no early morning dance classes or early morning shifts at the diner, or early morning flights to New York from Ohio, in almost two months. Sharing a room with Blaine's brothers though it had quickly become evident that Pippin and Austin's synchronised snoring, coupled with Jude murmuring in his sleep, was going to leave no chance of sleeping late before the competition. Kurt attached his iPhone to his armband and placed the ear buds in his ears carefully. He took a deep breath of warm salty air before starting to jog along the beach, the shimmering Pacific Ocean crashing on his left hand side and the 'Wicked' soundtrack blasting in his ears.
Spotting a familiar head of spiked up black hair a mile into his run Kurt glanced to his watch, raising an eyebrow when he noticed it was still only seven thirty. Veering to his left, he jogged towards the young man and dropped onto the warm sand beside him chuckling as Reed jumped a mile into the air.
"Jesus dude. You gave me a freaking heart attack," Reed sighed, running a hand through his hair as Kurt pulled out his ear bud.
"I'm sorry what?"
Reed just glared at his brother's boyfriend, muttering to himself and returning to running his hands through the sand. Kurt eyed him closely, taking in the deep purple circles under the newly turned twenty year olds eyes and the paler than normal complexion.
"So do you want to tell me what's going on Reedy?" Kurt smiled softly, nudging the slightly older boy gently with his shoulder and lifting his sunglasses to the top of his head. "You look like you haven't slept in a week at least."
Reed chewed his bottom lip nervously eyes, staring out at the endless water stretching out before him, the waves muting the noises of the wakening city that lay beyond the beach. Sighing loudly, he turned to face Kurt, smiling softly when Kurt followed his lead, their crossed knees touching as they looked at each other.
"Is it seriously clichéd if I say that I'm confused?" He asked, eyes boring into Kurt's, hands twisting together on his lap.
Kurt reached out and took one of the young mans shaking hands in his, "I would say confused about what but I'm pretty sure you've been battling this for the whole six months I've known you."
"Has it really only been six months?" Reed asked wryly, tearing his eyes from Kurt's when the blue eyed boy raised an eyebrow at the attempt to change the subject.
"Sebastian?"
"Yeah," Reed murmured, releasing a breath he didn't realise he had been holding. He placed one hand over his heart, feeling it racing at the simple mention of the Dalton boys name while his chest felt like it was starting to untangle from the knots that had built up over the last few months of his worrying and fretting. "Sebastian."
Kurt smiled gently, squeezing Reed's hand. "And what about him?"
"I think I'm in love with him Kurt." Reed's lost coffee coloured eyes, so much like Blaine's that Kurt felt the tug on his heartstrings, searched Kurt's understanding ones pleading silently for help. "I don't understand." Reed pounded the sand in frustration, "And we had a hell of an argument two weeks ago and I haven't spoken to him since. I miss him Kurt." Reed's voice cracked with the last statement and he blinked rapidly trying to clear the tears flooding his vision.
Kurt reached out and carefully took hold of Reed's other hand. "What did you guys fight about?"
Reed shook his head laughing harshly, "It was stupid really, well probably not I guess." He drew in a shaky breath, "Bash asked what he was to me and I couldn't give him an answer. He hung up and hasn't picked up the phone or answered any messages since, but I know he was over at your house the other day because Benny messaged to ask why he looked like shit."
"Much like you," Kurt smirked, grinning when he earned himself a sharp chuckle from Reed. "If you think you're in love with him what's the problem?"
"I've never felt this way about a guy before," Reed ran a quivering hand down his face. "I've only ever been with girls up 'til now, not that any of those relationships ever lasted long at all, or that there have been many of them."
Kurt tilted his head to the side, "Have you ever found guys attractive before now?"
Reed snorted lightly, "I was fifteen when Blaine came out to us and I had Jude and Ollie around not long after that. If you don't think I've heard every argument you could possibly hear about why Zac Efron or Leonardo Dicaprio are ridiculously hot you must be dreaming." Eyes flickering over to the ocean Reed smiled softly at the memories of arguments that had floated around the dining room table once Blaine and Jude had both come out, each of their brothers more than eager to give their own opinions on the celebrity of choice that month. He was definitely thankful that at least some of his family was as progressive as the brothers were.
"And your opinions on that?"
Reed shrugged, "Not my type." He smiled softly, "But I did always have a slight thing for John Mulaney from SNL... and maybe Andrew Garfield if he had green eyes."
Kurt chuckled softly, well aware of who both of those celebrities looked like. "You know your brother taught me something once Reed. It pissed me off completely at the time and caused a massive argument between us but that was only because I was jealous and he was going on a date with Rachel Berry." Reed's eyebrows shot into his hairline and Kurt chuckled softly, shrugging good naturedly, and ignoring Reed's unasked question, "All I wanted at that point was for him to be mine."
"That's all you still want now."
"Oh absolutely," Kurt nodded, fingers finding the necklace around his neck and fiddling discretely with the ring attached to it, "forever if I get my way, and I make sure I get my way these days." Reed laughed softly and Kurt beamed at him. "But he told me 'you fall in love with a person, not with a gender' and he was right. I mean sure there has to be attraction and I guess that's what truly ends up separating everyone at the end of the day. I mean some people are attracted to men, some to women and some to both. It's as simple as that. It's people butting in with opinions that really shouldn't matter that complicate everything." Kurt frowned slightly, his own fingers running through the cool sand. "I don't try to understand it but you know I can't say that if Blaine were a girl I'd love him any less than I do. I may not be attracted to him, but I'd still love him and he'd still be my best friend."
"I kissed him at the twins birthday," Reed whispered with a small smile.
"Uh-huh and how was that?"
"Magical."
Kurt laughed softly, "Boy you've got it bad."
Groaning Reed fell backwards onto the sand. "I know. That's part of the problem."
"Honestly Reed, I'm not sure I'm the person you should be talking to all of this about but I'm honoured you did choose me and I think you guys should give this a shot," Kurt grinned standing up and dusting the sand from his shorts. "I honestly don't think I've ever seen the two of you happier than when you're together."
"I need to talk to Bash." Reed sighed taking Kurt's hand when it was offered letting Kurt pull him to his feet.
"Yep you do, but right now we have to go and wake everyone up and watch your brothers kick some ass at Nationals."
"Damn straight," Reed chuckled, "And Kurt?"
"Yeah?"
"Thank you."
"Don't mention it," Kurt grinned, tying his sneaker and throwing Reed a look, "Race you back to the hotel!" He shouted before taking off, Reed hot on his heels feeling lighter than he had in months.
"We won, we won, we won, we won!" Bentley and Sam chanted bouncing around the tiny hotel room and nearly hitting the entire Glee club and Anderson clan on the head with the large Nationals trophy they were tossing back and forth.
Elijah grabbed the trophy as it sailed through the air again, placing it on the ground and glaring at the two teenagers until they sulked off to the corner pouting and pulling faces at Elijah. Rolling his eyes, Elijah barricaded the Nationals trophy against the desk and threw a dirty look at the pair. "You guys may have won but we're going to end up in the ER with somebody's eye poked out if you keep throwing that around." The duo stuck their tongues out at Elijah and went back to pulling faces at him when he laughed.
"I can't believe how good you guys were," Noah grinned, reaching over Tina and attempting to ruffle Blaine's gelled hair. Blaine squeaked and dove behind Kurt and Brittany, glaring at his smirking older brother.
Lucas yelped as Blaine accidentally pushed him into Jake and Marley. "Okay this room is way too freaking small to handle all of these people."
"No kidding," Finn muttered glancing around the overcrowded single room filled with extra blankets and pillows for all of the boys currently sharing the small room.
Pippin and Austin glanced at each other eyebrows raised, "Party time!" They whooped, jumping in the air and nearly knocking out Kitty and Unique in the process.
"And where exactly do you idiots suggest we do that with a ton of minors in tow?" Lucas drawled with a shake of his head.
"Party at Cooper's!" Austin yelled, eyes sparkling.
Lucas sat up on the twin bed with a grin, "Let's get out of here."
"Sleepover at Cooper's!" Noah yelled, leading the charge back to other hotel rooms to pack a small bag.
"Cooper's going to kill us," Elijah chuckled, scrubbing his hands down his face, "He specifically said he needed quiet."
"Lighten up Lij," Bentley grinned, slinging his backpack over one shoulder and his other arm around his older brother, leading him from the room. "He said the important thing was today which is why he couldn't come to Nationals. SO anyway I need to go bitch him out for missing my awesome choreography." Elijah rolled his eyes and pushed Bentley out of the door laughing and chasing him up the corridor to his own room.
"Mr Schue's going to be mad," Finn sighed. "I was supposed to keep them all in line."
Mercedes snorted, folding her arms across her chest, "Like he's even going to notice Finn. Let's face it Mr Schue's a bit preoccupied in any case. I haven't even seen him since they announced the winners."
"I feel like that happens at every Nationals competition," Kurt muttered, pecking Blaine quickly and following the mass exodus from the boys' room.
"Bentley I need you to tell me everything you know about art!" Cooper yelled charging into the living room and screeching to a stop in front of his younger brother. Conversation in the room ceased as the gaggle of teenagers and young men turned to stare at Cooper staring at Bentley with wide eyes.
Bentley pulled his flannel trousers over his feet and looked at his eldest brother with inquisitive eyes. "Coop, I'm about to study art and photography at Colombia. What I know took a shit ton of time to learn and would probably take even longer for me to teach you."
"Can you give me a crash course? I'm begging you Benny," Cooper dropped down to his knees in front of his brother, throwing in the puppy dog eyes for good measure.
Rolling his eyes, Bentley leaned back against the overstuffed armchair and looked at Cooped through half lidded eyes, knees still drawn up to his chest, "Seriously Coop why the sudden interest?"
"I just really need to know, in particularly what you know about art forgery?"
Eyebrows raising into his curls Bentley smirked at Cooper, Austin and Pippin suddenly joining him on the arms of his chair. "Thinking of a career change Coop?"
Cooper sighed, growling in aggravation. "Please Benny. I'm desperate."
"Hey Pip, hear that," Austin grinned at Pippin over the top of Reed's head.
"Why yes Aus I believe I did just hear Cooper utter those fatal words," Pippin beamed back at his brother, Cooper groaning and placing his hands over his face.
"He's desperate," The twins crowed together.
"Benny boo our advice would be not to give in until you see how far you can get with this first…"
"Get him to drive you anywhere you want while you're here," Pippin interjected.
"Ooh or take you to all the theme parks in the area…"
"Do your laundry for at least a year…"
"Buy all your take outs for a year…"
"Aim for a holiday somewhere really far away…"
"I got a role as a world renowned art forger!" Cooper yelled, cutting the twins off before their suggestions could get more out of hand.
The room dropped into silence once more before all of the brothers let out whoops of joy and leapt on top of Cooper. Others present in the living room had the good sense to dive out of the way of the growing pile of laughing Anderson brothers.
"Seriously Coop?" Noah grinned.
"That's awesome!" Elijah frowned suddenly whacking Cooper's arm and glaring at him, "Why the hell didn't you tell anyone?"
Cooper chuckled softly, "I really, really wanted this one guys and I just didn't want to jinx it. Let's face it, I'm not the best actor in the world."
"So this is why you've been so much of a pain in the ass lately!" Austin snickered, ignoring Cooper's glare.
Blaine rolled his eyes, elbowing Austin sharply in his side. "Coop, you're better than you think you are," He paused, tilting his head to the side slightly, "Just don't try to teach it again, that you're not so good at."
"So…what does the role entail?" Bentley smirked eyes twinkling, "And yes I will try to teach you as much as I can before you start filming."
"Okay so the show's called 'White Collar' and I play a guy called Neal Caffrey," Cooper's whole face lit up as he lamented what the role would involve to his fully entranced audience, his brothers thrilled Cooper had finally found a show that would last beyond one episode.
Cooper slowly trailed off, after he had described everything he knew so far about the show, eyes blinking at the other faces watching him from around his living room. His brow furrowed in confusion and he tilted his head mentally trying to count all of the teenagers and young adults camped out in his living room. "Wait why are there so many teenagers in my house?" He questioned eyes searching the glee club members and his brothers curiously.
The brothers each just looked at each other laughing lightly and sending a barrage of pillows at Cooper as he yelped and dove out of the way yelling at them to stop.
Cooper's eyes darted around the airport, desperately trying to keep an eye on each of his brothers to make sure that they weren't getting themselves into yet more trouble. "Damn twenty odd year olds I should've stopped having to do this when they were teenagers." Watching Austin and Pippin commandeer a luggage trolley he raised an eyebrow at them, shaking his head when they sheepishly stepped back from it again. "I hate airports," He sulked, watching Kurt and Blaine whisper to each other in the nearby chairs.
"Hey Coop?" Jude smiled shyly appearing at his oldest brothers side.
Cooper smiled, patting the spot beside him on the floor with a smile. "What's up Twinkle Toes?" Jude rolled his eyes with a small smile, sliding down the wall and resting his head on Cooper's shoulder. "I haven't seen you around much while you've been here."
"I'm not the one who was avoiding his family for three days."
"Point taken," Cooper laughed softly, leaning his head on top of Jude's curls.
"Seriously though Coop, congratulations you really, really deserve this."
"Thanks Jude. Now what did you come over here for?"
Slowly unzipping his carry on bag, Jude pulled out an envelope and turned it over in his hands three times, chewing his lip nervously before handing it to a curious Cooper. Motioning for his brother to open the envelope, Jude watched Cooper's icy blue eyes widen as he read the ticket in the envelope.
"You want me to come to your graduation?" Cooper grinned, knowing how hard Jude had fought to get more tickets than the two he had been allocated. The twenty two year old had been fretting down the phone to his oldest brother for the last six months over what he would do if he couldn't get enough for his family to be there. "Jude are you sure?"
Jude nodded vehemently. "Ollie got first choice in all honestly, and I genuinely think he wouldn't have hesitated to murder anyone else to get a ticket if I hadn't given him the first one," Jude frowned, shaking his head fondly as Cooper laughed. "But Coop…you raised me. Let's face it, from a ridiculously young age you gave up so much to help raise me, to help raise all of us. I'm not even sure I'd have ever even gotten into Julliard without your pushing. You were the one who first signed me up for dance classes back in Ohio…"
"Well I needed some way for you to release all the damn energy you always seemed to have."
Jude glared but laughed gently, "I want you there Coop."
"I'd be honoured," Cooper grinned, pulling Jude closer and holding him tightly. "So June seventh huh?"
"Yeah," Jude beamed, "At that point I become a fully fledged member of the New York City Ballet Company."
"I'm proud of you Jude."
"Thank you," Jude whispered, leaning his head on Cooper's shoulder again.
"Kurt!" Reed yelled, screeching to a stop in front of Kurt and Blaine, cheeks flushed and eyes shining.
"Damn Reed where's the fire?" Blaine snickered sleepily, his head tucked into Kurt's neck. Smiling at his brother, he leaned closer into his boyfriend and closed his eyes again determined to catch twenty minutes sleep while he was wrapped up in Kurt's arms.
"Kurt I called Bash!" Reed beamed manically.
"And?" Kurt grinned, sitting bolt upright to look at the ecstatic young man. Rolling his eyes at Blaine's whine of discontent he wrapped his arms tightly back around the teenager, smiling when he felt him nuzzle the ring hidden under his shirt before looking back to Reed.
"He's going to fly to Atlanta for the weekend," Reed jumped when his phone vibrated chuckling softly at it and swiftly typing out a reply. "We're going to discuss everything. I mean it's not a solution but…"
"It's a start," Kurt said happily, chuckling when Reed jumped at the overhead announcing the boarding of a handful of the flights that the brother's would be taking out of LAX.
Pulling Blaine to his feet, Kurt chuckled as he watched Blaine instantly be swept up into bone crushing hugs by his older brothers. Glancing to the side and seeing Ollie standing watching the Anderson's affectionately Kurt headed over to join him.
"They may be complete idiots but they sure do love each other," Ollie smiled, laughing as Bentley tried to escape the group hug only for Lucas to grab his collar and haul him back into the middle.
"Wait! We're missing something," Austin sighed pulling back slightly.
Pippin smirked when his eyes caught on his twins, "Group shuffle!"
"Oh no," Ollie cried trying to dodge out of the way and failing as the brothers grabbed the two closest extensions of their family and pulled them into the cuddle.
Cooper chuckled stepping back, "Right let everyone go before they miss their damn flights and I'm stuck with them for longer."
"Well that's just positively mean Coop," Pippin pouted, "Maybe I should try the comedy circuit in LA."
"Yes!" Austin grinned.
Cooper's face went slack and he shoved Pippin's carry on bag into his arms, "Hell no. You are getting on that flight to Chicago if I have to march you onto the plane and strap you down myself. As for the rest of you I will see you in Ohio on June fifth for the twins graduation."
"Our babies are graduating," Pippin and Austin each faux sobbed grabbing the younger twins who valiantly tried to fight them off.
"We're going straight from there to New York for Jude's on the seventh right?" Reed said still beaming at his phone.
"Erm guys, I couldn't get you all tickets," Jude murmured sheepishly, leaning on Ollie.
The brothers all turned to look at him, identical mystified expressions on their faces making the Glee club and Kurt laugh. "Julian Alexander Anderson if you think that's going to stop us from cheering loudly for you in the middle of NYC or taking you out for a celebration you are seriously deluded," Elijah chuckled.
"Yeah bro, any excuse to embarrass each other right?" Noah grinned.
"You guys are idiots," Jude said, hiding his face in Ollie's shoulder when his voice cracked.
"Right let's go home time for you morons," Cooper smirked, trying to push them all towards security, "You've all wreaked enough havoc on my city and it needs time to recover."
So my aim is to update at least once a week from now on until the end hopefully. As it's mapped out Meet The Anderson's is going to have 22 chapters so this is roughly the halfway point and I have definitely learned my lesson and have three back ups of everything so far. Anyway here's hoping that there are some of you still interested in this story and please let me know what you think. Also totally go and check out Forabeatofadrum's story about the boys on Tumblr it's awesome and some of what gave me the enthusiasm to start writing the boys again. post/ 154073325043/ klaine-advent-2016-day-4-dare (just make sure you guys delete the brackets and spaces :) ). Hopefully you guys enjoyed it and there'll be another up next week!
