"I'm going to go get the mail," announced Kurt.
"Okay," Rachel and Blaine responded in unison.
Kurt opened the door before stopping in his tracks because there was a baby outside the door in a baby carrier. There was even a diaper bag next to it.
"Uh, babe, Rach? Come here!" Kurt said worried.
"What?" Blaine said while he and Rachel walked towards Kurt.
"What in the hell? Why is there a baby?"
"What a cutie," cooed Rachel.
"I don't know, what are we going to do?" fretted Kurt.
"I don't know, but I'll bet you'll do great," Blaine encouraged.
"I'll do great? What about you?" Kurt asked starting to get worried.
"You know I have that audition today. I have to leave or else I'll be late. Bye."
And after kissing Kurt on the cheek, Blaine was gone, leaving Rachel and Kurt alone with the baby.
"Rach?" Kurt asked Rachel hopefully.
"I'm sorry Kurt, I really am. But I have a Funny Girl rehearsal in thirty minutes. I can only miss one practice and I'm planning on using that for the big shopping sale next month," and with that Rachel left Kurt alone with the baby.
"What. A. Bitch!" Kurt shouted.
The baby erupted. He started crying and crying and wouldn't stop. The baby cried for an hour until Kurt finally sung him to sleep. Kurt then made the mistake of using the bathroom near the kitchen, setting him off again. Kurt was about to give up, when he saw Blaine's phone on the counter.
Blaine had been in such a hurry to leave for his audition that he left his phone on the counter. Kurt grabbed Blaine's phone and texted the only person he knew lived in New York.
K: Hey Sebastian
S: Hey Killer, always a delight 2 hear from u
K: Can u come over 2 my flat
S: Y
K: Don't ask ?s. Just know that it is urgent!
S: K. Be there in 30The thirty minutes that Kurt had to wait felt like sixty hours. The baby wouldn't stop crying no matter what Kurt did or said. The baby wouldn't shut the hell up. By the time Sebastian got there, Kurt was close to tears.
The look on Sebastian's face was priceless and would've made Kurt laugh if it was any other day. But today wasn't any other day.
"Hello, Bla-- oh, it's you Kurt. Where's Blaine?" Sebastian said a little disappointed.
"Not here," Kurt said pulling Sebastian in before closing the door.
"What's so urge-- there's a baby. Why is there a baby? Did you and 'Sex on a A Stick' adopt?" Sebastian said said amused.
"No, it was just outside of my door and I don't know what to do. I'm all alone, unexperienced, and freaking the fuck out!"
"Wait, he just left you here with him? Well that's a dick move," Sebastian said actually agitated.
"Yeah, it was. Why do you even care?"
"I don't. Luckily for you, I'm very experienced," Sebastian stated normally.
Sebastian took off his jacket and walked over to the baby crying in his carrier. He lifted him up and took a sniff. His face scrunched up before laying him down on the counter. He sifted through the diaper bag and pulled out a fresh diaper, a pack of wipes, and anti-rash cream.
