Chapter 10

After dinner Kurt went home. He felt that it was best to have one last night at home before he moved in with Blaine. He knew that this was for the best, but Burt tended to be stubborn and over protective so convincing him that this really was for the best was going to be difficult. All the way to his house Kurt thought about what he was going to say, but by the time he got there, he still didn't have a good argument in tack. When he opened the door his dad was sitting on the couch with Finn watching a basketball game. Carole was sitting at the counter reading a book.

"Hey buddy." Burt said.

"Hey Dad" Kurt replied. "I was wondering if I could talk to you for a minute and Carole you too." Burt and Carole nodded and followed Kurt down the hallway towards his bedroom. Then, they all took a seat on Kurt's bed.

"I have some big news, that I really need you to back me up on." Kurt said with a nervous smile. They nodded. "Okay, I am moving in with Blaine." Kurt said. Burt laughed.

"Umm, no you're not." He said.

"Dad, just please listen to me. I don't take this decision lightly." Kurt said.

"Fine, go on because so far I'm not sold on the idea right now." Burt replied.

"Blaine is having a hard time right now. He can't find a job and he needs someone to watch Addie. He's really trying Dad, he is, but it's a really hard economy out there and there are no jobs. I want to do this because I love him and I love Addie. They both feel like my family. It's not like we're getting married, it's just he needs me right now. I also wanted to know if I could have a job at the garage?" Kurt asked. Burt looked over at Carole and she nodded.

"I guess it would be okay if you moved in with Blaine, as long as you, Blaine, and Addie come to every Friday night dinner. As to the job, of course you can come and work at the garage." Burt replied.

"Oh Dad, thank you! I also wanted to know if Blaine could" Kurt began but he was cut off.

"Kurt, I know what you're going to ask. I can't give Blaine a job, I just don't have the room on my staff and I don't have the resources to add another staff member. I'm sorry. I'll ask all my buddies if they have any jobs open, but I just can't give him a job." Burt said.

"Okay, thanks anyway Dad. We'll just take it one step at a time." Kurt said with a slight frown on his face. "Thank you, I have to call Blaine now." Kurt said. Burt and Carole nodded and then left the room. Kurt dialed Blaine's number and he answered the phone.

"Hey babe" Blaine responded.

"Hi, guess what? I have good news and bad news." Kurt said.

"I think I'll take the good news first." Blaine replied.

"Carole and my dad said that I can move in with you.' Kurt said brightly.

"Kurt, that's amazing. Addie will be so excited." Blaine said.

"The only condition was that all three of us have to come to every Friday night dinner." Kurt replied.

"That would be so much fun." Blaine said.

"Now for the bad news…" Kurt replied. "My dad can't give you a job at the garage. He just doesn't have room on the staff."

"Oh…well that's okay." Blaine replied in a disappointed voice.

"Please honey, don't be too upset. He said that he'll talk to all of his friends and try to get you a job." Kurt comforted.

"I know. It will be fine. I have to go okay. I'll see you tomorrow." Blaine said as he sniffled.

"Sweetie, are you crying? Don't cry." Kurt stammered.

"I really have to go Kurt. I love you, bye." Blaine said before hanging up the phone. Kurt sighed; it was clear that this job was one of Blaine's last hopes so he was obviously upset. It had to be stressful for him having to worry about not being able to support Addie. So, Kurt began calling around. After calling businesses for three hours he was about to give up. He decided to call one more place. He looked in the phone book. It was "The Lima Diner". He called the number and the manager picked up.

"Hello, Lima Diner , How can I help you?" the manager asked.

"Umm, yes. I was just wondering, are you are hiring?" Kurt asked hesitantly.

"Yes actually we are. I had to fire one of our waiters today so we are hiring as of now." The manger replied. "If I could just have your name and number I'll schedule and interview for tomorrow." Kurt panicked momentarily.

"Blaine Anderson, my cell phone number is 484-939-6732." He responded.

"Great, I'll see you tomorrow Mr. Anderson." The manager replied before he hung up. Kurt smiled he may have just solved all their problems. The next morning Kurt started moving his stuff into Blaine's apartment bright and early. Addie was sitting on the floor and playing with her Barbie dolls when he walked in.

"Kurt!" Addie screamed as she went running into Kurt's legs.

"Hey sweetie." Kurt said as he placed a kiss to her forehead. "Where's Dada?" he asked.

"He's upstairs." She responded. Kurt set her down and then made his way upstairs. Blaine was still tucked deep under his covers. He sat down on the bed and shook him.

"Blaine, wake up." Kurt said. Blaine grunted and rolled over.

"We have school today and Addie has to get to daycare." Kurt said.

"I'm not going. I have a migraine." Blaine said.

"No, you don't. It's a stress headache from not having a job. Well, stop moping because I got you a job interview." Kurt said. Blaine perked up at the sound of that.

"Where is it?" he asked.

"It's at the Lima Diner as a waiter. It may not be the best, but it's a job." Kurt replied. Blaine smiled and leaned in and kissed Kurt on the lips.

"I love you." He replied.

"I love you too." Kurt answered back. "Now, go take some Aspirin and get ready for school. I'll go get your daughter ready for daycare." He replied before getting up. After Addie and Blaine got ready they headed out to their cars. "Addie, come with me sweetie." Kurt said.

"Why? I can drop her off at daycare." Blaine questioned.

"I have a seat and I want to do it. Your job interview is at 3:30, so I'll pick her up. We're going to go to my house and packing up my stuff." Kurt responded. Blaine nodded and gave Addie a kiss before getting in his car. The day went by slowly, but when it finally ended Kurt was so glad. He drove to the daycare and signed Addie out.

"What are we going to do at your house?" she asked from her car seat.

"We're going to pack up my stuff so I can move in with you and Dada." Kurt replied.

"Are Finn, Burt, and Carole going to be there?" Addie asked.

"Umm, Carole will be there and so will Burt but Finn is at football practice." Kurt responded.

"Yay!" Addie said.

"I thought you were going to help me pack my stuff?" Kurt asked.

"I will, but I haven't seen them in like five years." Addie whined.

"Addie you saw them like three weeks ago." Kurt laughed. "You are just like your Dada." He pulled into the driveway and then got out and unbuckled Addie from her car seat. Burt was waiting at the door. Addie went running.

"Peanut!" Burt said as she ran into his arms.

"Dad, She had a beautiful name. Why do you insist on calling her peanut?" Kurt said.

"Because peanut is my name for her, I'm not going to change it now." Burt replied as he walked into the house with Addie. Carole smiled and hurried over to take her out of Burt's arms.

"How would you like to make cookies with me?" She asked Addie. Addie looked at Kurt for reassurance and he nodded.

"Yes!" Addie responded. Kurt smiled and then started down the hallway to his room.

"I guess I'll just pack my own stuff." Kurt said. He started putting the essential stuff into boxes. He didn't need to bring everything. It wasn't like he was moving far away. He put his clothes, moisturizers, and all his school stuff into about three boxes. Then he grabbed his laptop, phone, and chargers and put them in another. Then one by one he brought the boxes downstairs. In the midst of carrying the boxes he stole a few glances at Addie. She looked adorable. Carole had given he a little apron and pulled her hair up into a high little ponytail. By the time he carried the last box down and into the car, Kurt was exhausted. He set the box down and walked into the kitchen.

"Daddy Kurt! Look at our cookies." Addie said with a proud smile on her face.

"They look awesome honey." Kurt responded. "I finished packing all of my stuff, so we should get going. We want to beat your Dada home."

"Okay..." Addie said and put on her pouty lip.

"What's wrong?" Kurt asked.

"I don't want to go yet." She pouted.

"Well, we have to sweetheart." Kurt reprimanded. Addie stomped her foot and continued to pout. Kurt had never dealt with one of Addie's tantrums, but he could feel one coming. He picked her up and she started screaming. He carried her out to the car and put her in her car seat. "Adeline Faith! Stop right now." He said firmly. Carole came running out with a plate of cookie.

"Here take these." She said. "Good job, I know tantrums are hard but you handle it really well." Meanwhile Addie was still screaming.

"Thanks Carole, I need to go." Kurt replied and got in the car. Sometime during the car ride Addie stopped screaming and just fell asleep. Kurt pulled into the parking spot at their apartment. He carried Addie up and placed her in her bed. Then he went back down and carried up his boxes. He had just finished and plopped down on the sofa when Blaine walked in.

"Hey, how did the job interview go?" He asked. Blaine looked down with a sad look on his face. "Oh, honey. I'm so sorry." Kurt comforted. Then Blaine's face broke into a smile.

"I'm just kidding. I got the job." He said with a giant smile on his face. Kurt's mouth dropped and he slapped Blaine in the back of the head.

"Ow!" Blaine said.

"Blaine Devon Anderson, don't you do that to me again." Kurt reprimanded. Blaine laughed.

"I'm sorry!" Blaine said still in a fit of giggles.

"Oh shut up and cuddle with me. Addie's asleep." Kurt responded as he pouted.

"Okay." Blaine responded as he sat down next to his boyfriend in their apartment. He had a job and his… no their little girl was happy and healthy. His luck was really changing and he was glad he could finally relax for real this time.
