Sebastian and Blaine were watching the Lion King with Taylor later that evening, Taylor sandwiched between the two men, his feet propped up on Sebastian and his head on Blaine's lap, resting a bowl of popcorn the three were snacking on in the middle. During a song, Blaine would lovingly look over at Sebastian and Sebastian would smile back and kiss him chastely on the cheek. Blaine felt so lucky. He was able to do what he wanted, he was with an amazing guy, and his boyfriend's kid was so utterly cute.
"So baby, how was the conference? Thank you again for going. I just didn't want an awkward run-in with Dave," Sebastian said, smiling softly as he rubbed Taylor's arm, who was seemingly unaware of Sebastian's comments. Blaine flushed a little as he thought back to earlier in the day, when he and Kurt made eye contact and how one of the parents cooed and said they were the perfect couple.
"He wasn't there, actually." Blaine said, idly watching Simba run across the flat screen. Sebastian promptly glared at the screen, not displaying any emotion before looking steely at Blaine. "What the-what—" Sebastian sputtered, about to grab his phone and bitch out his ex. Seriously?
"Kurt was there?" Blaine said, almost as a question, and returned to watching the TV.
"Why? I love Kurt, but why can't Dave do something as simple as this. Kurt's the nanny, not the father, for Pete's sake."
"Kurt and Dave are dating, apparently."
"Oh. Well…good for them," Sebastian said. He honestly was tired of fighting with his ex, and if his ex felt like exploiting the nanny like that, because Sebastian knew Kurt wouldn't initiate something like that, whatever.
"I don't want this to ruin our night," Blaine said, patting Sebastian, as his boyfriend grinned. "Honey, it hasn't I haven't thanked you yet." Sebastian grinned as he noticed Taylor was dead asleep on the couch. "Let's get our monkey to bed."
The next day, Taylor's class was let out early, at 2:00, to prepare for a teacher's meeting later in the afternoon. Kurt had been asked by Dave to pick him up, but, staying with Sebastian, Blaine had also been asked. Because the exes typically didn't speak, neither communicated they would send their significant others to pick their son up.
As Taylor sat at the bench on the playground, waiting for someone to pick him up, he saw Kurt walking towards him, and Taylor jumped up, running to him and letting Kurt swoop down and pick him up. "Hey buddy! How was it?!" Kurt exclaimed as Taylor tightly held him. "It was great! Kurstie!" Kurt smiled as he felt a tap on his shoulder. "Hello?"
"Hey Kurt, I guess Dave and Sebastian forgot to let us know who was on pickup duty today." Blaine said, looking so darn hot in a black soft leather jacket, worn dark jeans, and black boots. Kurt smiled. "Hey there, mister. I guess so." Kurt also subtly noticed some of the moms checking out Blaine, trying to figure out whether it was okay to flirt a little. Kurt had to admit he looked good. "So…I guess since we're both here…" Kurt began, jumping slightly to keep Taylor from slipping.
"Let's go to the Park?" Blaine offered up. "I'll carry him, I see you have a bag."
Kurt smiled and passed Taylor off to Blaine, adjusting his Mulberry Bayswater bag on his shoulder, which was dragging off with his cream colored v-neck cashmere sweater. "Sounds good!" Kurt laughed.
Central Park was beautiful during the fall. The leaves were a rustic, red and deep yellow, and Taylor loved the dogs that walked past them, stopping and asking each owner if he could pet them before doing so, and Kurt smiled as he watched Blaine hold Taylor's hand, and clutched onto the coffee Blaine had purchased for him on the way there. Taylor spotted a play ground and ran towards it, Blaine and Kurt trailing behind him, watching him happily scoop up leaves and throw them at the two, them blocking the attack and reciprocating. Taylor scooted off to the swings and Kurt and Blaine settled on a bench, walking Taylor swing.
"So, Blaine, where are you from?" Kurt asked, watching as Blaine fiddled with his jacket, tugging on a zipper that wouldn't close. Blaine smiled a little as he pushed a stray curl off his face.
"Westerville?" Blaine said timidly, unsure if Kurt knew where it was. Kurt's face lit up. "Seriously? I'm from Lima. Oh my gosh. You look kind of familiar actually…" Kurt trailed off.
"Really? Well, I did Glee club in high school, maybe you heard of the Warblers from Dalton Academy?" Blaine asked.
"Seriously? I was in New Directions. You guys creamed up at Regionals." Kurt laughed, wiping a bit of coffee off his upper lip. "You were awesome."
"Thanks. You guys, from what I remember, were pretty good, too. Seriously." Blaine said, as Kurt smiled. "Wow. I almost when there, it's too bad. I didn't realize there were cute boys there."
Blaine blushed as he turned to watch Taylor swing contently, smiling back at the two of them, laughing a little.
"He's so cute. I wish I had a kid," Kurt absently said, turning to look at Blaine. "Dave doesn't want any more kids."
"Neither does Sebastian, but I wouldn't mind two more running around," Blaine breathed.
"You'd be a good daddy." Kurt smiled as Blaine laughed. "Thanks. I love Taylor, he's such a cute little monkey."
"He is, isn't he?" Kurt said. "He's the best."
Taylor ran up as if he thought he was being spoken about.
"Blaine! Kurt! Can we please go get hot dogs?" Taylor said. He jumped into Blaine's arms. "Pllllleeeeeaaaassse?"
"Sure, buddy." Blaine said, as he helped Kurt up.
