It was white, too white. Kurt was about ready to hurl something, anything, colorful to splash on a bit of life to the bleak hospital walls.
He was doing it, getting his first actual glimpse of the baby. He was two months and five days pregnant and exceedingly nervous.
His doctor was a recommended one that was infamous within the circle of Carriers Kurt had written to when he'd been told he'd be one as well. It was an urged friendship but he was glad he'd done so despite the strangeness it had been at first.
Kurt leaned back and stared at the thankfully beige color of his bed's covers and pillow. The wall was a pretty pattern of brown and white dotts.
From beside him, Blaine sleepily laid his head on his shoulder and Sebastian stood at his other side by the wall.
He wasn't sure how to feel when he realized both of his boyfriend's would be there to see the baby with him. He'd been so sure it would just be some joke and Sebbie would be called off for a meeting and Blaine would finally get his record deal just as the doctor printed the picture.
Kurt was staring at the door waiting for the inevitable to happen. It opened and Kurt inwardly jumped.
Doctor Karen walked in, all smiles with her honey-brown hair and bright brown eyes. How a woman knew how to handle special cases, as special as a male Carrier for crying out loud!, no one really knew.
"How are we feeling?" She smiled and tossed about a few papers on Kurt's chart.
Kurt leaned back and opened his mouth to complain. Complain about everything he'd been going through, mostly about the baby if he could help himself and keep his love life troubles to himself.
Before he could say anything, Sebastian was right in front of Doctor Karen. "We've only been told the last week so I'm not sure when the dizziness or faintness started but he's been feeling very tired for the past five days. He's eating all right, so far nothing nauseates him to the point he throws up. No cravings either but since he's only two and a half months along, I'm gonna take that as being a good thing and I'm pretty sure he's in the need of prenatal vitamins or do Carriers not need those."
Doctor Karen smiled, "I take it your the father?"
"One of them." Blaine supplied sleepily. "Kurt, Sebastian, and I are in a relationship."
He paused as if waiting for Doctor Karen to stiffen up and react negatively towards a not so monogamous relationship. When she didn't, Sebastian cut in.
"Can we perform an ultrasound?" He asked. "He had one before, at around maybe two weeks. Or maybe it wasn't an ultrasound but a pregnancy test."
Doctor Karen nodded. "Yes, it had only been a test. Today would be the first time but I don't have the right equipment to do it."
Sebastian stared as if he'd been slapped in the face. "I didn't think this hospital was that inadequate."
Now Doctor Karen looked like she had been slapped in the face. "Actually-."
"No. I would like a copy of Kurt's records and charts sent to my fax. I'll hand it in to the head nurse. I want a recommendation of the best doctors out there who work in a good hospital because I'm not taking any chances with my kid's life."
Kurt, who had nothing to say for several reasons, could only allow himself to be steered out of the room with one boyfriend on each side.
The moment they got home was when Kurt snapped. The door just closed on them and Blaine was on his way to get some proper sleep since he'd been up all night writing songs (he'd barely been awake in the hospital).
Kurt had waited for him to stumble into bed before turning. "What in the world is going on?"
Sebastian raised an eyebrow at him.
"First you go numb at the news of me being pregnant, you ignore me all the time for the past five days which makes me feel like crap, thank you very much! And then you come to the hospital and freak out my Doctor who was there when you weren't and somehow insult her, her work place, her skills all in the same sentence."
"Your point?"
Kurt gaped for a moment before he wrung his hands in the air. "My point is that how dare you do that to me?"
Sebastian huffed and pressed fingers to his temple. "Kurt, I do not need this."
"Oh, you do not do you?" Kurt chided. "Just like you don't need the stress of being with me, and the fact that I'm pregnant would add more crap to the baggage I had to begin with!"
Sebastian stared at him. "What are you talking about?"
"What am I..." Kurt's eyes narrowed. "Know what? Screw you Smythe."
Blaine was dead tired. He wanted to go to sleep, he wanted to just drop on the couch and just let sleep whisk him away to a happy place filled with lyrics that actually rhymed... oh baby that would be heaven with cherries on top!
"Your point?" But of course he could never have that simply because he was in a relationship with two very strange and... unique people that had very different views of life. They could sometimes never get along when it came to politics or fashion.
Which pretty much made the five C's of a successful relationship seem like a miracle to commit. At the very least they got the two major ones right; Compatibility and Communication.
"My point is that how dare you do that to me?"
"Kurt, I do not need this."
Blaine groaned and turned over, shoving his head under one of their pillows. Oh god Sebastian just shut up... shut up and keep quite because Kurt is emotional.
"Oh, you do not do you? Just like you don't need the stress of being with me, and the fact that I'm pregnant would add more crap to the baggage I had to begin with!"
Apparently very, very sensitive. Blaine gave out another groan and turned over again to face the ceiling. He threw his hands into the air in a 'Oh God!' gesture.
"What are you talking about?"
Of all the-! Blaine threw the covers off of himself and slumped out of bed, he stumble back out of the bedroom just in time to avoid the blurring image of Kurt dashing in. The slamming of the door woke him up a bit and he offered Sebastian a half-hearted glare.
"What did you just do?"
Sebastian stared at him for a second, green eyes glassy before he ran his fingers through his hair, tugging rather harshly. "... I can't Blaine. I just can't... not like this. I can't... you... he... Argh! He doesn't understand!"
"I'm sure he will, baby." Blaine tried. "Just tell him all about it."
Sebastian's pale cheeks flushed a dark red. "No, no matter what I say he won't understand. I'm sure of that, and you wanna know why?"
Blaine stared at him for a second. "All right... why?"
"Because he had a great father. He had this wonderful father figure." Sebastian licked at his dry lips. "You! You, I know, knows how it feels to be ignored, to be told that this, what we have between us is wrong because a book told him so. The man who is supposed to love you, shape you, take care of you, and be fucking proud of you is the reason you're miserable every damn day of your life."
Sebastian sunk into a chair, looking so very far away. Blaine couldn't touch his lover with a ten foot pole even if he tried and managed to kill himself.
"And the worst thing... the worst thing is that there are only two reasons I smile anymore." Sebastian glanced up. "One of them's mad at me and the other is probably feeling so sorry for me, he'd probably write a song about it."
Blaine glared but understood. Typical Sebastian. When hurt... use humor.
From inside the room, Kurt leaned against the door, suitcase in hand.
He'd heard everything.
AN: Oh Lord, methinks this is almost coming to its end. Probably one more chapter then the Epilogue. I just realized that over seven hundred people view this story. That's really... woah. I wish a lot more of you reviewed though. Imagine the encouragement :P
I kid though! I do hope you're enjoying this and now we see why Sebbie's been such an ashat.
