I'm really trying hard to be understanding of Kurt and whatever he's going through. However, with a child involved, my patience has been stretched thin.

[imaginentertain]

This is indeed true - I can understand where you're coming from - but I promise you that Kurt's only ever been concerned with his family, and that includes BOTH of his children.

He does want Ben there - he told Blaine that he needed to be sure Amelia would be 100% safe before he agreed to anything. He then agreed, he then fought the home on their reservations about two adoptions close together. He has stood firm through every issue and assured Blaine at every step that he does want Ben to be there.

But there's also something else going on with him as to why he is acting the way that he is, and the biggest clue was when he mentioned sides to Blaine. I can promise you that Kurt's thoughts and feelings about Ben and Blaine have nothing to do with not wanting him. It's about what Kurt "knows" about people like Ben, people who are so angry at heart, people who 'change'...

Hope I've not put you off completely; part 3 will be up later today and should answer a LOT of questions.

I'm so upset right now. I cried during a good portion of this. I feel so bad for Ben because he's trying so hard and it's not his fault that Kurt has past issues to work through. And I feel bad for Blaine because he's trying so hard to figure out what's bothering Kurt so they can be a family and he's so torn because he has to worry about the kids but he feels like he's losing Kurt. And Kurt I feel bad for him but I just want him to tell Blaine already before he loses everything. And why did you leave it there. It can't end with Blaine's packed suitcases. I need more now, I need them to work through things and for Kurt to accept Ben and ugh this is just really good but I may be a tad bit too invested.

[imaginentertain]

I ended on the suitcases as my beta pointed out it would be the most EVIL place to end a part on. Which it totally is. ;-)

The three of them all want the same thing - they want to be a family together. The issues are coming about due to backgrounds and perceptions and influences. Each of them have been hurt by something in their past and they haven't fully dealt with that.

Ben's still not over his dad and his anger and is still scared of losing it. Blaine is scared of losing Ben and/or Kurt because he's lost them both before. Kurt is scared of... something we are going to find out about soon enough but the clues are there if you look for them!

I swear my heart is breaking. I really hope they talk before one of them does something stupid.

[imaginentertain]

Who says either of them are doing something stupid? ;-)

This is such a beautiful, beautiful story but it always makes me cry because you're the Queen of All the Angst. And it's just been a really bad day and the crying isn't making it better can I have a hug?

[imaginentertain]

You can always have a hug. I give good hugs apparently.

{{hugs}}

[imaginentertain]

I'm... sorry?! I'm evil, we should be aware of this. Part 3 will go up later today and should hopefully make things a little better... ♥♥
