Disclaimer: Ryan is intractable, Glee is still his.

For information, from now to the end of this story, there will be some jumps forward in time, bigger or smaller depending on the chapters. Normally, if I'm doing well, I should succeed to slide each time how much time has passed since the previous chapter, as discreetly as possible. Now you have been warned.


Dave and Sebastian became friends after Dave's suicide attempt. They went at the same time to university in Chicago. Dave has had a boyfriend who asked of him to stop seeing Sebastian who, he danced with many men. But only danced; nothing more like everyone has always believed.
They met again on the day of Sebastian's birthday, in the rain, they had sex together, decided to be boyfriends, broke up for one week, had a true romantic date and are now completely officially a couple since they spent half of summer vacation with Paul (and coach Beiste) and the other half with Chloe, Sebastian's little sister and Marie, Chloe's mom, who is what Sebastian has closest to a mom since his birth mother disappeared shortly after his birth.
They took advantage of this vacation to take a step or two forward in their sexual life but also in their life together in general: Sebastian asked Dave to move in with him and Dave accepted.
On the side of New York, Kurt and Adam broke up just before the summer break and Kurt took comfort in Puck's arms. Colin and Blaine too broke up because Blaine is still in love with Kurt. He tried, but Colin was not the right person to forget Kurt.


"If anyone objects to this marriage, they should say now ... I'm kidding, you've had six months to say it, it's too late."

"But what am I doing here?" Sebastian asked, leaning to Dave's ear.

"Stop bitching, you were happy not more than 24 hours ago."

"But at that time there wasn't a completely crazy officiant who thought he was funny."

"Shut up, we'll be spotted."

"Wait just one minute." Kurt told to interrupt the babbling of the nice officiant who tried to continue the ceremony. "You two, wouldn't you mind to keep quiet a bit while I get married by chance?" he said to Dave and Sebastian.

"Sorry, yes." They said at the same time, looking down.

"And you, honestly, you're not funny, so if we could speed up and reach ''blah blah blah husband and husband'', it's after all only five years I'm waiting for that."

"Oh, fine, fine, okay. Kurt Elizabeth Hummel [1] ..."

"I don't know which one of you has found it funny, but I'll find them, I warn you." Kurt interrupted, turning to his family and friends sitting in the crowd.

Sebastian tried to stifle a giggle, quickly followed by Tina and Mercedes who held firmly their bridesmaids' bouquets in front of them. Besides Sebastian, Dave barely restrained a smile.

"I should have guessed." Kurt sighed.

"Um ... excuse me, can I continue?" shyly asked the officiant who had lost all humor henceforth.

"You can continue... with my real name, please."

"Kurt Anderson Hummel." the poor officiant paused, frowning. "Uh ... is it still a joke?"

"No, not this time. If you could continue." Kurt got mad.

"Kurt Anderson Hummel will you take as your lawfully wedded husband Blaine Devon Anderson?"

"Yes." Kurt replied, finally smiling to his very soon husband.

"And you Blaine Devon Anderson, will you take as your lawfully wedded husband Kurt Anderson Hummel."

"You probably think I'm crazy, but yes, a thousand times yes." Blaine said, smiling.

"You are completely crazy but by the powers conferred on me by the state of New York, you are now husbands. You can ... especially not wait until I finish my sentence to kiss the groom. "the poor officiant sighed as Blaine and Kurt had already started kissing before he had announced that they were married.

The newlyweds and their witnesses signed the register, under the date, June 26, 2016, snapped away by all the amateur photographers scattered among their families and friends. Then everyone was distributed in the motorcade to reach the reception.

No doubt that this wedding was organized by Kurt Hummel himself. Everything was sorted. On a pearl gray base taking over the color of the grooms' suits, everything was red as Blaine's shirt and lime green like Kurt's. Secretly, the same colors as Santana and Brittany's dresses for their wedding two months later in Los Angeles. It hadn't hit Kurt that he had chosen the colors of Santana and Brittany's dresses for their first prom before Santana had insisted she wanted these colors no matter whether or not they were matching. And at that time it was too late to change the colors of his own wedding. His only option to differentiate the two weddings had been to opt for a white base for the two young women's wedding.

"Kurt Anderson Anderson huh? If I had known it would be even funnier with your real middle name." Sebastian teased as they settled in their places at the table.

"Kurt Anderson Anderson-Hummel if you will. And stop laughing now." Kurt protested.

"Sebastian Smythe, is that you're trying to make fun of my husband?" Blaine asked, taking his place between his husband and his witness.

"I wouldn't dare, no." Sebastian replied, laughing.

"Come on, stop now." Dave whispered in Sebastian's ear.

"Oh but heck, what is it, a wedding or a funeral? Had to say we hadn't have the right to have fun, I wouldn't have come." Sebastian joked.

"Yes Bass, right, pretend to not be happy to be here."

"I maintain that it's silly to get married, especially so young but if this is the crap they have chosen to do, I won't stop them."

"You're serious? You gonna tell me you never dreamed of getting married?" Kurt asked incredulously.

"Never, no, thank you. In the past 22 years my father has had no less than six wives or girlfriends, my mother and my sister's included. If someone wants to explain to me the interest."

"Tell the world that you love the one you marry."

"I don't need the whole world to know, as long as he knows, it's enough, no?"

"Don't you find it even a little romantic to promise to the man you love that you will always love him?"

"I find it mostly stupid. How can you promise that, you can't be sure."

"Sorry, I forgot I was talking to Mr. Don Juan." Kurt said with a look a little dismissive.

"Kurt, don't talk about what you don't know." Dave interjected. "Otherwise, I bring him home now."

"It doesn't bother you that your boyfriend says he'll never want to get married?"

"The real question is why do you care so much? This is between us."

"Tell me Kurt, you remember when you discussed my choice of witnesses because they were not reliable enough? Can you tell me where are yours now?" Blaine asked to divert the conversation.

"The last time I saw Mercedes, she was deep in conversation with your brother." Kurt replied.

"You mean my brother she sees about every day since he currently plays in the video for her next single?"

"No, I mean your brother she sees all the time, which plays in half of her videos, directs the other half and with whom she's seen at all the official events, but that the paparazzi are still trying to see together in private even if they say around that they go together to these events as friends."

"Ah, that brother. So we agree she'd have time to talk to him in Los Angeles, but she still decides to talk to him now when she should fulfill her duties as a witness. And Tina? News about Tina?"

"Probably where Mike is as usual." Dave said with a smile.

"You see Kurt, my witnesses; they're there instead of hanging out in a dark corner with someone they see every day."

"Um, hang out in a dark corner; this is an interesting proposition for a little later." Sebastian slipped quietly into the ear of Dave who blushed slightly at the thought implied.

"Dare." Dave whispered quietly laying a hand high on Sebastian's thigh.

"You know me wrong if you think I'm not capable of."

"Oh no, I know very well that you are capable of."

"My witnesses would surely be there if their boyfriends were at the table with us. That's why yours are there." Kurt pointed out.

"No, too easy. They're more reliable, that's all."

"OK, if you want my hubby."

"Can you repeat that?"

"OK, if you want." Kurt repeated on a somewhat ironic tone.

"No, not that, what you said just after."

"What is it?"Kurt said, pretending to think for what he had said. "Ah, my hubby you mean?"

"Yes, that, I love to tell and hear it my husband." Blaine said before kissing tenderly the one he had just married.

"Oh please, spare us that a little." Sebastian growled, pretending to be annoyed.

"Don't be jealous Scar." Dave whispered, kissing also his boyfriend who couldn't help but smile.

"Ew, stop it a little, you'll have time when you get home." Tina interjected grimly.

"Tina, where were you exactly?" Kurt asked in a tone of reproach.

"I was with Mike. Just because you got married today you're not the only ones entitled to have a little fun." Tina said, settling in the place that had been assigned to her.

"Tina." Kurt railed.

"Oh, don't play the prude Kurt. At least we have resisted to the distance." Tina threw pulling her tongue to Kurt who sighed with feigned boredom.

It had become Tina's favorite subject of teasing since Kurt and Blaine were back together. She amused herself to remind them that their relationship hadn't resisted the separation when Kurt had gone to New York while even if it had been very hard, she and Mike had managed to keep their relationship at that time. Most of the time, Blaine though reminded her that the end of the year had been so hard that it perhaps wouldn't have resisted if Tina hadn't been accepted at Columbia University of Chicago to join him right after graduation. But it had truly become a fun topic between the four friends, they had had tough times, but it was simply a part of their stories and they had accepted it.

Mercedes finally arrived, her hair slightly askew, a big smile on her face.

"Looks like I'm not the only one who had fun in dark corners." Tina joked.

"But with whom did she ..." Kurt began a little shocked.

"Not with my brother, please, not my brother." Blaine mumbled.

"What is there with your brother?" Mercedes asked settling.

"Nothing. At last I hope." Blaine said quickly.

"Mercy, you might better have had to go to the bathroom before coming back." Tina whispered.

"Why? I have something on my face?"

"No, you just got the hair askew. You better tell to Bling-Bling who put you in this state so he stops his panic attack."

"Whatever I don't see what would be the problem if you had sex with his brother, after all, it's a bit what all the magazines say right?" Sebastian launched.

"Oh don't be smart Smythe. We all know that magazines tell whatever they want and they often lie. They lie, huh Cedes, they lie there."

"Yes, don't panic white boy, they lie."

"It's Sam? You have done it again with Sam?" Kurt exclaimed.

"Forget it, I won't tell you who it is. Top secret. It's too early to tell."

"Define 'too early'."

"Some dates here and there, but with my schedule and the paparazzi, it's a bit complicated. And we agreed not to say for now so you won't know anything more."

"Come on Mercedes, to me you can tell." Kurt begged.

"No, nothing at all."

"I'm no longer talking to you."

"We'll talk about it tomorrow?" Dave said with a laugh watching his boyfriend of two years.

"You win; I'm no longer talking to you." Sebastian muttered to Dave with a half smile betraying his true thoughts.

"Yes, of course. We'll talk about it tomorrow Bass." Dave whispered, kissing the temple of Sebastian.

"Why don't you take me seriously?" Sebastian asked, pouting.

"I take you very seriously, I just know it doesn't last long when you're no longer talking to me." mimicking on the end of his sentence the childlike tone that Sebastian had used.

"You're making fun of me." Sebastian pouted.

"No, I wouldn't dare ... Maybe just a little ... okay, I making fun of you. But I love you anyway."

"You better do."

The evening passed without incident. Between courses, several guests made speeches, starting with the newlyweds themselves who had chosen not to do so during the ceremony.

"Blaine, I'll never forget that day when I came to Dalton to spy on the Warblers and where I met your eyes for the first time. I'll never forget that day when you joined me at McKinley to take my defense for the first time against a guy who's twice your size and your build. I'll never forget the first time you asked me if you should serenade a boy you liked and it turned out it wasn't me you were talking about. I'll never forget the first time you kissed me. I'll never forget the first time you told me 'I love you'. I'll never forget the day you joined me at McKinley in your street clothes to make me understand that you stayed with me this year. I'll never forget the first time I felt our relationship jeopardized by another who could take my place. I will never forget what followed either because it was also a first."

Kurt blushed a little and turned to his father.

"Oh, sorry dad, I had to tell you, I haven't waited for my thirtieth birthday, but otherwise, you see, I listened to you. I did it with someone who means something."

He turned to Blaine and continued.

"I'll never forget how you have supported me and pushed me to leave for New York while I hadn't get in to NYADA and that meant that I was going away from you. I'll not forget the day when you told me the news that hurt me the most. With all these memories in mind Blaine, I still love you; living without you is much harder than taking the risk of being hurt one day. I still have tons of first times to live with you, I can't wait to begin. So for the first time, I present you my husband."

Blaine kissed Kurt with a smile, tears in his eyes as many guests. Then he spoke.

"Kurt, I thought I'd never forgive myself the pain I did to you. I thought even less than you, you'd forgive me. But eventually, somewhere, that has strengthened us. I've learned that mistakes are part of life and I mostly learned that the most important to make it work between us is to talk when things are wrong. I've learned that a couple is a lot of effort, but so much happiness. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you, to buy an apartment with you, to have children with you, to see them grow, to have to break their heart by denying them to have a dog because daddy couldn't stand the hair on his designers' outfits, to see them leave to live their lives. I can't wait to grow old by your side and to tell you to shut up so I can watch my TV show when you'll tell how we met for the ten thousandth time in our nursing home. My husband." he finished with a smile before kissing Kurt once again.

Burt then rose to gratify the newlyweds of a speech.

"When Kurt told me he was going to marry Blaine, I must admit that I tried to dissuade him. He's still my little boy. Yes I know Kurt, you don't like it when I say this, but you'll see when you have children, you'll always remain my little boy and I'll always seek to protect you, even from yourself. I scraped him off the ground almost four years ago when they've broke up. In fact, I scraped them both off the ground. They hurt each other a lot. I thought it was mostly because it was their first love, but since I got it. When you love as they love each other you have the power to really hurt each other. But as I was so well said by my son , I took that risk when I married his mother and even though it was very hard to lose her, I don't regret a single day I've been living with her. And not a single day that I live with my wonderful wife. Kurt, Blaine, I wish you all the happiness in the world. Blaine kiddo, you were already part of the family but now it's official."

At this point Carole and Ivy, Blaine's mother, were trying as best they could to limit the damage with great reinforcement of tissues. But when her husband Neil stood up and began to speak, Ivy knew the battle was lost and that she should go to the bathroom after to reshape her makeup.

"I haven't always been the best father. I've had a hard time accepting that my son would never be what I had imagined, that he wouldn't live the life I had dreamed for him. I'm not particularly proud of it but I tried to turn him straight. As you can see, it didn't work. But at least now he knows how to fix a car. It can always be useful. Well, okay, maybe no longer now that he has Kurt who knew how to change the oil before starting middle school, but you never know. My son won't be a banker or a doctor, he won't have a wife and children who are biologically of him and of the person with whom he'll raise them, but with you Kurt, he'll have something I've always wanted for him, he will be happy. I should be able to get used to him having a slightly different life. Kurt, welcome to the family."

"Oh come on, we are sick of long speeches dripping with marshmallow. We all did shit, we all progressed since. Kurt, Blaine, Mazel Tov! It's Puck who taught me that." Cooper launched, raising his glass.

Ivy laughed at the silliness of her eldest son before leading Carole to the bathroom with her to adjust their makeup that had widely suffered.

"Fortunately Kurt taught me a few tricks, I would have been unable to fix it before marrying his father." Carole said laughing while patting traces of makeup under her eyes.

"I should probably ask him, I don't usually wear make-up. It's a professional who has done the job today." Ivy said.

"She did a good job. I don't think I can do as well as she did, but I can try to do something."

Carole used the few tricks that her step son had taught her to fix her makeup and the one of Blaine's mom while they were talking.

"It's Kurt who taught you that? He often wears make up?"

"Oh, no, not at all. He did it from time to time for Halloween or fancy dress parties, a play in high school maybe, but that's all. I admire him. He knows who he is and he knows how to shake prejudices about him. He knows how to change a tire as well as pull off a soufflé."

"He seems to be a good kid. I never really took the time to know my son's boyfriends. There has been only two this said, but I regret a little."

"It's not too late. Well, for the other boyfriend, it is, unless they have remained friends. But for Kurt, it's not too late. Now they are married. He will surely be the father of your grandchildren."

"It's crazy, when Blaine told us he liked boys, I thought that fortunately I had Cooper to give me grandchildren. I mean, it didn't change much, I always loved Blaine but at the time I really didn't imagine he'd have children one day. And now when I see my two boys, I think finally, Blaine could be the first to have kids."

"Cooper is ..."

"Adorable when he wants but he doesn't seem ready to settle yet. He's a big kid." Ivy sighed.

"Maybe he just needs to find the right person."

"I hope so. I know what the newspapers say about his relationship with Mercedes, but I think they're wrong. I saw her exchange glances with that other guy at the table; I think she has something with him."

"Yes, I saw it too. But I think we should keep it to ourselves, I don't think they want to talk about it for now." Carole said, laughing.

"Everyone will know before they talk, they're not very discreet."

"I don't think Burt will realize before it's put right under his nose. You have no idea the number of times Blaine has come home when he wasn't yet dating Kurt, but it was already clear that they had a crush one for the other. Burt didn't see anything. Even when Blaine came to see him and tell him to talk to Kurt about sex, it didn't even come to his mind that Blaine was worried about his son a little more than as a mere friend."

"Ah, men." Ivy whispered, laughing.

"But what would we do without them?"

"Oh, I've been told that you didn't unravel badly without a man for several years."

"But it's still better with. Well, I think it should do to end the night." Carole said, putting the finishing touches on her work on Ivy's makeup.

"Thank you. We should meet a little more now. We'll have the same grandchildren after all."

"We should yes." Carole ended, heading towards the exit.

Dave and Sebastian also took advantage of this little moment of hesitation to isolate to make a phone call.

"Hey, Sarah, so that first day? Does little Lucy love her new home?" Dave asked when his aunt answered.

"She doesn't complain. But she's only 10 months, she couldn't really say it."

"I'm sure she'd know how to make you understand if she didn't like it at all."

"Asma is now giving her a bath and it seems to go well I'd say. You hear that?" Sarah said as laughter could be heard in the background.

"Yes, indeed, it seems to be fine." Dave said with a laugh.

"And you; how is this wedding?"

"Magnificent. Well, there's a line in the ladies restroom due to speeches of the grooms and their fathers but I've heard it said that it happens in every weddings."

"I've heard it so. And you two, when will it be?"

"No, please, Sarah, not you too." Sebastian muttered. "We're not going to get married, end of discussion."

"Yes, sure. And you were friends and it would never change. To others!"

"Ah, I think you're requested." Dave said while a crying baby could be heard at the other end of the wire.

"Yes, apparently she loves the bath. Much less exiting it. Good evening lovers."

"Thank you. Good evening to you family."

After this exchange, the boys returned to the reception where the newlyweds were getting ready to open the ball on a Mercedes' song in duet with Cooper. An unpublished extract from the forthcoming album on which the woman worked and would be the first clip where Cooper would add his singing talents to those of an actor he used until then.

From there, the evening went smoothly, guests coming and going, some even starting to go home. Everyone sang and danced. Kurt and Blaine did a duet on 'They don't know about us' by One Directions in response to those who thought them too young to be engaged.

At this point of the night, Sebastian and Dave seemed nowhere to be found but Kurt and Blaine just couldn't care less, looking for a quiet place to do married men's private things. They thought they had found and pushed a door to come face to face with Blaine's witnesses in a slightly awkward position; Dave moaning the name of his boyfriend knelt before him. Sebastian stood up and hurriedly tried to hide as best he could his boyfriend who was trying to handle discreetly the issue of the condom and pull up his fly while thinking that fortunately, they weren't more undressed.

"Oh, sorry, sorry ... er ... I ... we ..." Kurt stammered, trying to get Blaine out of the room.

"No problem, we had finished anyway, the room is all yours." Sebastian said proudly as he walked toward the exit, leaving behind him an embarrassed Dave, used condom in hand he was trying to hide as best he could, inwardly cursing his boyfriend and looking around if a trashcan could save him the little dignity he had left.

No luck this time.

"Sorry to have interrupted you. Let's say that it could have been worse, we could've surprised you in an even more awkward position." Kurt said with a nervous laugh.

"I don't see how." Dave muttered.

"Well yes, still, if you had been ... well I'm not going to you draw a picture though, you see right?"

"I'm not sure."

"I think what my husband ... oh I like that word ... Well, what he's trying to say is that you could've been getting ... Well one in the other then." Blaine explained as red as a tomato.

"Oh, oh, that. There's no risk in fact."

"What? You mean you've never ..." Kurt began, surprised.

"Uh, never."

"But how ... You are together for two years ... You don't miss it?"

"I don't know about Sebastian, to be honest, I often wonder if he won't change his mind and dump me because of it. But me, it's fine with me."

"Two years and you have never had sex together."

"There are lots of ways to have sex together without doing that Kurt." Blaine said. "Okay, us two we do it but it's not mandatory."

"But it must be frustrating."

"No, not that much." Blaine said before Dave could answer. "With Colin we didn't do it, I never missed it. It was just different."

"It means that you don't like it when we do it?" Kurt asked, a little worried.

"I love when we do it, it's just that Colin didn't like it one way or the other and so, it was better to do something else with which he was comfortable than to want at all costs do something that didn't please him. I love doing it with you because you love it too."

"I can't believe Sebastian is satisfied with not doing that."

"You really don't know what you're talking about, Kurt. He's like that; he often tries to pretend to be what he's not, to seem stronger."

"So with Adam, you were doing it."

"Uh ... yes. He couldn't... finish without being in me."

"You mean he always topped and you never?" Blaine asked with a knowing smile.

"Yes, why?"

"And you didn't miss it?"

"No, not really."

"It means that you don't like it with me when you top?"

"Why yes, of course I like it with you, otherwise I wouldn't do it."

"And I wouldn't miss it because what I like to do with you, I like to do it because we like it both."

"Um ... yes ... well, I'll let you and um ... go find my ... my ex because I'll have to dump him after what he just did to me, that coward." Dave, who felt in the way of this intimate conversation, interrupted them.

"No, you're not gonna do that, you love him too much to dump him for a stupidity." Blaine said, laughing.

"No, okay, I won't do that. Mainly because we live together in his apartment. And ... because I love him too much, okay. You won. But I'll still go find him."

"Okay. For information, if you go left as you leave, there's bathroom second door on the right and uh ... so a trashcan." Kurt said, a little embarrassed, suddenly realizing fully what conversation they had just had.

"Uh ... OK, OK ... thank you ... er ... have fun." Dave stammered, exiting.

He found Sebastian in the bathroom, curled up on himself against a wall. The other looked up at him when he entered.

"I'm sorry Pooky ... I ... I don't know what took me to leave like that ... I'm sorry ..."

"It's fine, it's forgotten. It was very awkward and I'd have really appreciated if you took the condom before leaving. But I'll survive." Dave replied, throwing the object of the offense in the trash. "Come here." he added, pulling Sebastian in his arms.

"I'm sorry, so sorry." Sebastian whispered against Dave's shoulder.

"It's fine, it's nothing. I love you."

Sebastian briefly tightened his grip around Dave's waist, smiling against his shoulder.

"Maybe ... we could stop using condoms, don't you think? I mean, it's been two years that we are together now. I don't know about you but I have no desire to look elsewhere. We could go get tested." Sebastian said at full speed as if he wasn't sure what his boyfriend could answer.

"Yes, we should do that." Dave murmured against Sebastian's hair. "I'm sure you taste far better than fruits flavored latex."

"It's obvious. Nothing is better than me. Except you."

"I think it's a tie."

"Maybe we should go back, they'll wonder where we've gone."

"The key players already know where we've gone." Dave pointed out, laughing.

"Oh, no, don't remind me that." Sebastian growled.

"If it can make you more comfortable, you realize that if they've surprised us, it's surely that they were looking for a quiet place to do exactly the same thing we did?"

"I don't know if it really makes me comfortable to think about it actually. But thank you for trying."

"No problem. If you need, I'm here."

"It's good to know."

They returned to the party hand in hand. They danced and sang until the end of the night with the guests still there and finally went back to get some sleep in their hotel room before flying back to Chicago.


[1] So, no kidding, even on Wikipedia, they're struggling, this is Kurt Elizabeth. Just hellooo. Elizabeth is the ''middle name'' he gives himself after his very famous duet alone on the Jazz Hot, because duality masculine / feminine stuff. Do you really think Burt Hummel would have named his son Kurt Elizabeth? I much prefer the version where he chose that name there in honor of his mother. But there it's a wedding, a formal thing, so it's time to use real names. No time to make a tribute or joking.
