smytheberry: the plan

chapter six

sebastian was in a cab on his way to rachel's building the journey seemed to take forever his nerves were starting to kick in. after all there was more than just him and rach at stake especially as he knew their k7ds wanted them to be a family too.

finally he reached the building and ran up the stairs not wanting to wait for the elevator he rushed to kurt and blaine's place where he knew she was staying and knocked on the door. it was before midnight so he knew they would still be up only there was no answer so he knocked louder.

he decided to check her apartment but it was empty concerned he pulled out his cell and rang her there was no amswer but a moment later she rang him back.

seb: rach

rach: what is it whats wrong is it the kids

seb: no they are fine i wanted to...i... um where are you

rach: kurt and blaine have brpught me to cocktail bar to cheer me up os everything alright

seb: yeah everything is fine enjoy yourself

as the call ended sebastian leaned aginst the wall next to her apartment door amd slid down onto the floor. he had been so close to telling her but she was out so after heaving a big sigh he got up and headed home.

he let himself in quietly so not to wake the twins who were still awake deciding which illness to fake tomorrow.

" well what did she say" hunter asked

" she wasnt there kurt and blaine had taken her out for cocktails" sebastian said

" oh well there is always tomorrow " hunter said giving him an encouraging smile

" yeah i dont know maybe it wss a sign" sebastian said

" oh please tell me your joking your sebastian smythe you dont give up you never give up and you know what smythe i aint going to let you. thruth is i maybe a tough guy but i love smytheberry as much as everyone else i liked you more when you guys were together she made you less of a dick" hunter said

"  thanks and we will see" sebastian sighed

" hey i will take the twins out tomorrow give you  chance to go see her" hunter said

" goodnight" sebastian said walking to his room feeling deflated.

after laying awake for a few hours sebastian finally fell into a fitful sleep he dreamt of jesse pinning rachel to the table only in his dream he shoved jesse away before making love to rachel.he woke with a start sweat running down his perfect abdomen that dream had felt so real.

the next morning

sebastian woke up needing his usual caffeine fix hunter was already awake and had made coffee the twins must still be asleep.

" morning " sebastian said

" morning" hunter said with a smile on his face

" leave it" sebastian said hopeing he wasnt going to say anything

" actually the reason i am smiling is your kids have informed me that they believe they are sick and want their mom" hunter said

" their sick why didnt you wake me" sebastian asked before heading to their room

" seb wait they are faking it" hunter said

" faking it why would they..." sebastian started to say but realised why

" how do you know they are" sebastian asked

" because they woke me up this moring by clattering about in the kitchen getting ice and baking soda and sofia said lets use an egg as vomit" hunter said

" the crafty little devils" sebastian said

" i know i think they might be even more crafty than you" hunter said

" welli best go check on the patients " sebastian said walking to the twins room he opened the door to the sound of whimpering and sniffles.

" hey daddy" sean said making his voice croaky

" oh no are you sick" sebastian said walking over and feeling his sons forehead

" wow your burning up yet look so pale " sebastian said seeing the baking soda residue onnhis hand.

" im sick too daddy" sofia said pointing to the mushed up egg on her pillow

" oh no well there is only one thing for it im going to have to ring your mom" sebastian said taking his cell out.

" we dont want her to worry" sofia said

" i know but you guys are sick you need your mom" sebastian said

" if you think its for the best daddy" sean said

" i do " sebastian said leaving their room a plan of his own forming in his mind.
