Kurt and Blaine kept growing closer and closer over the next few months, and he would occasionally bring up Quidditch, which was the only time Kurt had nothing to say. He was impressed with Gryffindor beating Slytherin in the first match of the year, even though he said it was a fluke. He kept saying that it was beginners luck for Harry. But Kurt just let him think that. He remembered Artie telling everyone that Harry actually is good, and that the boy had said that someone had jinxed his broom, so it was lucky he caught the snitch anyway.
They shared a compartment on the Hogwarts Express on the way home for Christmas. Finn and Rachel came in too, but Rachel made sure Finn's attention was solely on her, by making out with him persistently.
"We had to share with them?" Blaine asked Kurt, side eyeing them.
Kurt shrugged, not looking at them. "What are you doing for the holidays?" He asked as Rachel let out a particularly obscene noise.
"Well… Me and Finn will go to my home for a day or say, before I go to Finn's. I can't spend the time with my dad because… personal reasons. And Finn's mom is really sweet and lets me spend all my holidays with them. They're like my second family. And Finn's moved now and Godric's Hollow is actually closer to my home anyway so I don't really have to travel as far."
As intrigued as Kurt was about Blaine's home life, the last part caught his attention. "Godric's Hollow?"
"Yeah. Finn's mom moved there this term."
"…I live in Godric's Hollow…" he hinted, smiling a little.
"Really!? Maybe we can meet up over the holidays. It'll be fun!" Kurt grinned.
"Sure."
The smiled and continued to chatter throughout the journey. At one point they started playing truth or dare, and Kurt, trying to foolishly avoid letting Blaine find out who he liked, chose dare. And Blaine dared him to use a spell to stick Finn and Rachel's lips together. Which Kurt did.
Within ten second the compartment was filled with Kurt and Blaine's laughter and Rachel's muffled yelling, which they could make heads or tails of. They used the counter spell and laughed through all of Rachel's yelling, which never seemed to end, so they were glad when the train eventually stopped. They said good bye and hugged quickly before going in separate directions. Kurt found his dad and hugged him tightly before they went to buy coffee and head home.
On the way, Burt told Kurt all about Carole and her son, except his name. And he also told Kurt that the boy's friend would be staying with them too. And he highly hinted that if Kurt became friends with said boy, to keep their door open. That's when Kurt remembered that Burt had mentioned the gay friend in the letter in October.
They also had the time to catch up with the stuff they hadn't put in their letters. Kurt enjoyed spending time with his dad, and he hoped that, just because their family was growing, he'd always have time for him.
When they got home, Kurt finally got to meet Carole. She was very sweet and kind; Kurt knew he was going to like her. They all chatted over coffee for a while before Kurt excused himself to his room to do his homework. He spent most of his time over the next few days up there. Not because he was avoiding socializing, but because he had so much homework to do and he just wanted it all out of the way.
On the third day, he slept in (something he'd never do), because he'd stayed up late finishing off the last of his homework. He got up around lunch and went to get coffee before getting out of pyjamas or doing his hair.
He trudged downstairs, hearing voices in the kitchen. He blinked sleep from his eyes and went in. He froze when he saw more than just Carole and Burt. His eyes widened and he ran back out and upstairs, hoping they hadn't seen him.
He rushed through his morning routine and got changed and did his hair before taking a deep breath and heading back downstairs, still slightly in shock.
What were the chances in this happening?
The second he walked back into the kitchen, he knew they all saw him before, and he felt his cheeks heating up quickly.
"Kurt, this is Finn and Blaine." Carole said. Kurt nodded in reply, ignoring Finn and eyeing Blaine, who was wearing a cute checkered shirt and a bowtie.
"Soooo…. We're sort of… brothers?"
"…I guess." Kurt replied, finally glancing at the taller guy.
Both Burt and Carole sensed tension between the three of them, but were unsure why.
"So… what school do you go to, Finn?" Burt asked, as an attempt at breaking the ice.
"Wait… what!?" Finn looked confused. Blaine bit his lip, trying hard not to laugh. Kurt saw him and grinned.
"…How long have you and Carole been together, dad?" Kurt asks, still grinning.
"Seven months, why?"
"Oh god…" Kurt says, and Blaine is actually laughing now. "That long and you seriously don't know!?"
They both gained confused looks again.
"We all go to Hogwarts!" Blaine said.
Realization dawned on their faces along with shock. Kurt laughed and went to make everyone coffee while they talked. Blaine grinned and came over to help.
"Hey there, stranger." Blaine smirks.
"Hi…" Kurt looks down at the mugs. "…What are the chances?"
"Very low, probably. We got luck on our side."
"Oh. So this is definitely a good thing?" he asks, raising an eyebrow at Blaine, watching as he grew flustered and his mouth flopped open and searched for words. Kurt grinned. "I've never been able to make someone speechless before I met you. I hope there's a good reason."
"Uh… yeah. Totally. Of course there is. Urm…"
"Don't hurt yourself, Blaine. But you do realize what this means?"
"…What?"
"We're going to have to run away together if we wish to be out of the presence of Berry when she finds out. And she will. And she will not leave this house because her best friend and her boyfriend now live together."
Blaine laughed. "I'll hold you to that, Hummel."
"Good. Because she'll probably be here tomorrow." Blaine laughs and continues to help him.

So this is short but i'm sick. And sorry for the HUGE time jump but it would've ended up being a load of fillers. And Yes, I don't plan on this being too long because it isn't my next 'big story'. I'm focusing on ATS and F17. And then on top of that, I'm working out the kinks in my next big story. And I also need to plan out the sequel for WKOF? That I promised in November/December.
And then on top of that, I've recently got addicted to White Collar so you're lucky I got off my ass to write this at all.
Sorry for delays, really. I'm bad at being frequent.
Siiiiiigh. Thanks for reviews and alerts and faves, guys. They really do mean a lot. Feel free to give suggestions. I almost always add them in.
Less Than three Xx
