"Kurt…is Marnie dressed up as Rajah?"
"Hush Blaine…just watch." Kurt whispered, eyes focused on the stage.
The older girls' at Marnie's dance school had choreographed a dance – as the Disney Princesses – and Marnie's class had been asked to participate as extras. Sarah – the girl playing Jasmine – had asked Marnie if she wanted to be Rajah, and she had eagerly agreed.
She was currently crawling around stage on all fours, growling every time anyone approached her princess.
Blaine watched, his eyes alight with wonder and delight, gripping Kurt's hand as he focused completely on Marnie – with no hope in hell of knowing what was going on. Kurt grinned, watching Blaine fondly.
He glanced at the stage as the performers ran off, excusing himself to go collect Marnie from Sarah. Waiting near the door, he spotted Sarah, who was carrying Marnie. The five year old spotted him and squealed, fighting to be let down.
"Daddy!" she called, racing to his side.
Kurt grinned at her, leaning down to pick her up, kissing her nose.
"Thanks Sarah!" he said and she grinned, passing her bag over before waving goodbye – hurriedly preparing for another scene.
Marnie nuzzled his neck, her face paint leaving streaks behind.
"Daddy! Did you see?"
"Of course I did!" Kurt told her, ticking her as she wriggled excitedly. "Daddy Blaine's waiting for us outside, okay?"
"Did I do good? I didn't mess up once, and I use my best tiger growls!"
"You did amazing! And you'll have to show daddy Blaine your growls again – look, there he is!" Kurt grinned, putting her down.
She bolted to Blaine, dropping onto all fours and growling at him as she pawed at his leg.
"Oh no Kurt! It's a tiger! It must have escaped."
Marnie giggled, growling again.
"Blaine…no, I think it's our Marnie tiger!"
"No! Rajah!" she growled.
"Sorry Marnie…"
"Rajah!" she insisted, resisting Blaine's attempts to pick her up, crawling around behind Kurt to hide.
"Come on tiger, time to go home…" Kurt said, pulling her up into his arms.
She nestled against him, eyes never leaving Blaine, growling each time he got close.
"Marnie…" he sighed.
"Rajah!"
"I'm sorry Rajah!" Blaine apologised.
She stopped growling, tilting her head to the side.
"Can I pat the pretty tiger?"
Marnie hesitated, nodding slowly.
Blaine ran a gentle hand through her curls, causing her to purr and push her head further into his hand.
"Good tiger!" Blaine praised.
"Rajah!"
^.^
Marnie was asleep in her car-chair moments after they strapped her in, and Blaine and Kurt clasped hands, watching her for a few minutes.
"She's going to be amazing." Blaine said softly, closing the door as quietly as possible.
Kurt grinned. "You should see her at rehearsal. She always wants to know if you'd be proud of her if she wanted to do professional dance…"
"Why wouldn't I be?"
Kurt laughed. "Apparently you 'grumble' when you see dancers."
"It's only because I can't dance. Maybe she could teach me…"
Kurt stifled a laugh, kissing Blaine's cheek.
"We better get her home."
Blaine nodded, but neither of them moved, watching Marnie through the window.
"She's going to be something great." Blaine said softly. "One day, when we're old, she'll do what we never did. She'll go to Broadway and she'll be on TV…and we'll be watching proudly."
Kurt smirked, biting his lower lip before pulling Blaine into a proper kiss, nuzzling against his forehead.
"Whatever she'll be, we'll be her parents."
"Always."
A/N: *proudface* So now we're writing and waiting until Glee is avaliable. We want 145 by tonight, which we WILL get, considering we've got a shitload of prompts and at least 12 hours. 150 by tomorrow midnight, which should be achieveable.
