Okay if your school doesn't have those baby simulators or you've never seen one, you're probably going to think I'm absolutely crazy. But I had to do this for Child Development and let me tell you, that was a LOOOONG night :-P
"I hate this stupid thing," Blaine said grumpily. He was cradling a plastic infant in his lap, impatiently holding a key in its back. "I didn't even want to take child development! They just put me there!" He gingerly tried to remove the key, but the doll started wailing again.
Kurt laughed.
"I hope you know you're getting up with me when this thing cries at three in the morning," Blaine said.
"That's fine," Kurt said.
Blaine was slightly surprised Kurt was okay with it. He tried to take the key out again, and this time there was silence. He sighed, so relieved.
"See? You're okay!" Kurt said, giving Blaine a kiss. They were both silent as Blaine put the doll back into the carrier his teacher had given him. "Do you want kids?" Kurt asked.
Blaine turned to him and raised an eyebrow. "Eventually. I'm just kind of scared I'm going to be a bad parent," he replied.
Kurt got up and wrapped his arms around Blaine's waist. "I've seen you babysit your little cousin. You're great with her!" Kurt said.
"Yeah, but she's six. She can do some things by herself. But all this baby stuff is so stressful," Blaine said.
"Well that's why there will be two parents. Just like tonight."
Blaine smiled. "Are you sure you don't mind helping me?" Blaine asked.
"Of course I don't mind. You've been under a lot of stress lately. And plus, it'll be like a glimpse into the future…" Kurt trailed off.
"You mean it? That last thing?" Blaine's face lit up.
Kurt leaned in for a kiss. "Of course I do."
The fake baby suddenly started wailing.
"Let me," Kurt said. He took the key from Blaine's hand and put it in the baby's back, holding it in his arms, even gently rocking it.
Blaine looked on with pride and love in his eyes. He couldn't wait until they had a real one of their own, just not yet.
