A/N: This went in a different direction than I first planned, and it may have worked better if it was their 15 or 20 year reunion, so just don't count the years too closely! Enjoy :) xo

Music In You

Laughter and squeals of delight rose up from the backyard of the moderately sized house located in one of Lima's nicest neighbourhoods.

Of course, not all the squeals were happy ones.

"Give that back," an adorable little boy with dark curly hair and a cute little bow tie stamped his foot as he reached for his toy airplane that was currently being held just out of his reach by a taller girl with a high ponytail and a wicked grin.

"Not until you kiss me." She laughed when the boy blushed but he silenced her quickly with a peck on the cheek. He took the opportunity to grab his airplane and started running away. He was shocked when he looked behind him to see that there were two identical girls now chasing him, both with ponytails and little red skirts.

The three of them ran right past two other little girls. One had long brown hair tied up with a gold bow and a matching gold star on her sweater. The other wore a leather jacket and had a single streak of pink in her hair. And while the two girls couldn't have looked more different, they were completely in sync as they ignored their surroundings. They leaned toward each other as they giggled about being best friends forever and held hands.

The little boy took no notice of them as he kept running, searching for his younger sister, hoping the twin girls would back off when they saw the toddler. He finally spotted her playing in the sandbox with a boy who had skin the colour of milk chocolate. As he sat down on the grass nearby, careful not to get sand on his clothes, he couldn't help but think how much the sister he adored, more than anything else in the world, looked even more angelic beside the little boy who was offering her a mud pie. She wrinkled up her nose and said "No, thank you" in her beautiful melodic voice. The boy merely shrugged and dropped it in the space between them, refusing to be deterred.

The twin girls finally caught up and sat down on either side of their new playmate. They linked pinkies behind his back and started humming softly. The boy immediately recognized the tune and sang the words quietly. His sister heard him singing and joined in a lot louder, which caught the attention of the other two girls still sitting by themselves. The children started to sing together, each of them knowing the words because it was something their parents had been singing a lot lately around their houses.

You've got the music in you

Don't let go

You've got the music in you

One dance left

This world is gonna pull through

Don't give up

You've got a reason to live

Can't forget

We only get what we give

Don't let go

I feel the music in you

The children's voices reached their parent's ears and all conversation stopped. They smiled happily at each other, reveling in the sound of the next generation of singers they had created.

"You sure you're going to be okay, Dad?" Kurt whispered in Burt's ear.

"Yeah bud, nothing a big tea party, pizza and a movie with popcorn can't handle." Burt patted Kurt's arm.

"You and Carole are vastly outnumbered though." Kurt warned, taking in the small group of children sitting together.

"We handled you and your sleepovers, and Finn and the football team. I think we can manage a group of small children." Burt assured him. "And Kurt, when all you guys sneak into the auditorium for old time's sake, please make sure someone records it. I miss hearing you sing."

"Of course, Dad." Kurt leaned over and kissed his father's cheek, then he grabbed his husband's hand and lead him inside so they could get dressed for McKinley's Class of 2012 ten year reunion.

Song lyrics are from "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals.
