A/N: Last continuation.
When Blaine got back to the Hudson-Hummel house, after showering and packing, Finn let him in and he found Kurt helping to clean the kitchen with Carole, singing a nonsensical tune as he wiped the bench.
"Hey gorgeous." Blaine grinned, dropping his bags on the lounge and heading into the kitchen.
"Hey." Blaine wrapped his arms around Kurt and kissed the side of his cheek.
Carole grinned at them from where she was stacking the dishwasher.
"Hey Blaine." She called
"Hey!" Blaine grabbed a few dirty plates, rinsing them before handing them to her.
"What have you boys got planned for tonight?" Burt appeared in the doorway, an easy grin on his face.
Ever since they started dating, he had gotten more and more comfortable with their relationship – even managing not to pull a face when they kissed. It was hilarious progress.
Kurt shrugged. "Not much probably…we're a little drained from the week."
Burt nodded. "Understandable. You boys can sleep with the door closed, I trust you." He walked away – back to the game on TV, and Blaine and Kurt grinned at each other.
"What brought that on?" Blaine asked, rinsing the last plate.
"I may or may not have told him about your promise rings…" Carole said sheepishly, a bright grin on her face.
"How did you find out so quickly?" Blaine asked
Carole laughed. "Kurt called me the night you went shopping for them."
Blaine turned to Kurt, who looked guilty, a small smile playing on his lips. "I had to tell someone!" he laughed. "You can't expect me to keep something like that a secret. It was special."
Blaine just grinned and pulled him into a hug, kissing him briefly. "I don't care if you tell the whole world. It is special."
Carole beamed, a small 'aww' escaping her lips. "Let me see them then!"
Blaine and Kurt held out their hands, grinning as she gushed over them.
"So, when are you boys heading to New York?" Burt asked from the couch, and the three of them joined him.
"Five days, then we're off." Blaine grinned.
"Are you all packed?"
"Sort of…" Kurt said slowly.
Carole laughed, making Kurt scowl.
"My suitcase is too small!"
"You just have too many clothes babe." Blaine laughed, linking their hands and intertwining their fingers.
"It's not even just clothes!" Kurt whined. "I have at least three more pairs of Doc Martens to fit!"
Burt laughed. "How did you get by with only one suitcase when you went to Regionals?"
Kurt looked sheepish. "I may or may not have bribed Finn into taking half my clothes in his suitcase…"
Burt and Carole chuckled.
"Speaking of Finn, where is he tonight?"
"With Noah - getting in some gaming before he goes off to start his apprenticeship. "
Kurt nodded and sighed a little sadly. Finn and Puck would be divided for a while – Puck going to work on construction while Finn went to college.
"Let's talk about what happens when you get to New York." Burt said, turning serious. "Where are you staying?"
"With Rachel. She left about a week ago and managed to score an apartment. It's small and crappy, but she offered to house us for a month as long as we help pay the rent and feed ourselves."
"And you've got your itinerary sorted?"
They nodded.
"Good. Now, what about when you get back from New York? Have you thought about where you're living and college?"
Kurt shrugged. "A little."
"Well…what are you studying, first of all?" Carole asked.
"Well, Mercedes wants me to study Fashion with her…" he continued hastily before they could protest. "Which I actually want to do – it looks like a good course and I'm interested, but I'll do a dual degree and get a bachelor in the Performing Arts as well."
Burt nodded. "And you, Blaine?"
"Oh! Uh…I want to get a Bachelor of Education for High School students, specialising mostly in English and Music – I was so psyched to do Drama instead of English but they told me I couldn't."
"Are you going to the same college?"
They nodded. "They both offer accelerated courses and we can both get them done in two years; provided we work really, really hard."
"Is that what you want?"
Kurt grinned, nodding and squeezing Blaine's hand. "We want to get out of school as soon as possible and start our lives together."
Carole took a moment to compose herself – they were just so sweet.
"It'll be hard." Burt said softly.
"We're ready." Blaine grinned.
"If you boys think you can handle it…"
"We can." Kurt nodded.
Burt laughed. "Alright. After you return from New York then – where are you staying?"
"I'd like to stay here for a couple of months while I sort college out and get into it and everything." They nodded. "And Blaine will probably stay with his parents too, and when we've saved enough we'll buy our own apartment and be out of your hair." Kurt said proudly.
Carole and Burt nodded, looking impressed.
"You boys obviously have everything planned – we don't need to check up on you." Carole said softly and a little sadly.
"It's nice though." Blaine assured her. "It helps us with organising, knowing there's someone there to point out our flaws and make sure we're not forgetting anything."
She smiled fondly at him, and Kurt squeezed his hand again.
He had the best boyfriend in the world.
A/N: Okay! Onto the new stuff! Got some fun little drabbles coming up, and a funny story to go with the second one.
