Three Times The Hummel Verse

Shopping

One Saturday, Kurt, Chris, and Carson found themselves at Walmart. Even though they didn't live together anymore, they still enjoyed getting out of the big apple sometimes and getting all their shopping done.

They were all happily living with their significant others, and Shannon, Blaine, and Will thought it was cute that the brothers still liked to be so close.

It was mid January, and the snow was falling quickly, so the three boys where moving away from their cars and towards the front door as fast as possible.

"Blaine decided to sleep the day away today." Kurt said as they all got shopping carts. "I left the apartment at noon, and he was still snoring in bed."

"Shannon wanted to clean the house. I didn't think it was really that dirty, but I know she does it to feel less lazy on boring weekends." Carson added. The three brothers then headed into the massive store. "Where do you guys want to start today?"

Chris looked around and spotted the clothing section. "Will needs a new pair of jeans. All of his are getting holes in them."

"Is he religious?" Carson joked as he followed his brothers.

Chris laughed. "Very funny."

The boys were about to pass by the women's section when Kurt stopped. "Does Shane need anything?"

It was Carson's turn to chuckle. "Not really Kurt. She's as crazy about fashion as you are."

Kurt pouted before responding. "Well I'm going to pick something out for her. I know she likes scarves..."

"NO!" Carson shouted, drawing the attention of other shoppers. In a quieter voice, he finished speaking. "No more scarves! I haven't counted, but I wouldn't be surprised if she had close to a hundred."

Chris and Kurt laughed at the deadly serious expression on their brother's face.

"Fine, no scarves. I'll get her a plain shirt to wear with the scarves." At that, Kurt picked out a deep red V-neck and put it in his cart. "Red looks amazing on her."

Carson smiled too as he thought back to that red dress that she wore on their first date. "It sure does."

The boys continued on to the men's section. Chris quickly grabbed two pairs of jeans in the right size, and the three continued down the long isles.

As they were walking, they passed the pet section, and it reminded Carson of a previous conversation. "Shane's been trying to talk me into getting a dog."

Kurt let out a soft chuckle. "Of course she is, she went to school to be a dog trainer."

"Yeah, but I've been thinking about it too, and her birthday is coming up."

Kurt and Chris both gasped. "That would be so sweet if you got her a puppy for her birthday Carson!" Chris exclaimed as he walked over to the dog toys. "You could get some cute little toys too!"

Carson walked over to the toys as well. "Don't get too carried away. I told you, it was just an idea."

"An idea that you decided to share! That means you've really been thinking about it long and hard." Kurt added.

"Alright fine. I promise to take you guys with me to help pick out the dog. Her birthday's on the second of February, I've still got two more weeks."

"She's going to be so happy Carson! I know Will loves Cooper and Brian, even though he acts like he can't stand them." Chris stated, referring to his dog and cat.

"Yeah, I'll think about it some more before I buy toys though. Not today." Carson said to Chris who was still eyeing the toys.

Chris laughed. "Who said I was looking at these for you? Cooper needs a new rope."
He grabbed a rainbow one and threw it into his cart.

"Alright, is there anything else that we need before we head to the food section?" Kurt voiced as he looked to his brothers.

Chris and Carson shared a look before answering in unison. "Condoms."

Kurt laughed again. "Okay guys."

They headed over to the specific isle, and Chris and Carson both grabbed a box. Chris cast Kurt an odd look. "You aren't getting any?"

Kurt blushed slightly before answering. "Ah, no. We don't use them." At the incredulous look he received from the other boys, he explained further. "Well, there's no chance of either of us getting pregnant, we've both been tested, and we're married. We're not sleeping around with other people."

Carson grunted. "Well, I'm only good on two out of three of those things." He looked to Chris as well. "I hate you guys."

Kurt and Chris couldn't help but laugh at Carson's frustration. "You poor thing, you're straight."

Suddenly, Carson groaned and buried his head in his hands. "This just reminded me of something else I have to get. Come on guys." With out another word, he started walking away, and Chris and Kurt had no other choice but to follow.

When they realized where he was going, the two gay men stopped walking and doubled over in hysterical laughter.

Carson continued on towards the 'women's necessities' section.

He quickly grabbed a box of tampons and practically ran out of the isle. He returned to his brothers, who were still completely lost in laughter. "Hahaha!" Carson mocked before starting towards the food section of the store.

Chris and Kurt hurried to catch up with him. "Relax Carson. It's not that big of a deal." Kurt said as he looked into Carson's cart. He couldn't resist to tease him further. "Does she need some pads too? Maybe you should go back to that isle."

"You guys suck." Carson snarled. Then his usual cocky smirk took over his expression. "Literally." His brothers laughed again, calming Carson considerably.

"Ok, let's just split up for the food. I know for a fact you guys aren't going to want to get healthy veggies with me." Kurt said as they stopped in front of the many isles of different foods.

"Nope, I'll be joining you for that one. Shannon likes her salads." Carson grumbled.

Chris also groaned. "I'll join too. Will lives for lettuce and carrots. He's like a rabbit."

Kurt smiled widely. "Awe! I'm glad you guys found someone who'll make you eat better."

"Hey, don't push it. I know for a fact your going to buy Blaine some cronuts." Chris added as he started to walk away.

Kurt sighed before nodding in agreement.

The triplets split up and went their separate ways. Once they were done, they met up again in the ice cream isle.

"Mint chip for me. Will loves it." Chris said as he reached into the freezer. 

"Shannon hates mint. She'll do anything for chocolate though." Carson said as he retrieved one called Double Dark Chocolate. "The description for this is 'dark chocolate with dark chocolate'. Perfect!"

Kurt picked one with peanut butter swirls, and the brothers headed for the check out.

Once they had purchased everything, they headed back out into the cold, snow covered parking lot.

They loaded their cars with groceries, and then said they're farewells.

Even though they were seeing each other in two days for their traditional Monday night dinners, they hated saying good bye.
