Para Title Taken From: Hairspray- I Can Hear the Bells

We will be doing a series of little mini’s to progress over the next few years of this RP. Things might get a little confusing but we promise to date them accordingly.

Under cut to keep dash neat. Work is mostly unedited as usual.

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine paced around the kitchen and busied himself putting things that were already where they belonged back in order A task which consisted of picking each item up, looking at it, and then promptly placing it back in its home. This was it. They were finally going to tell Sabine that they didn’t want a big wedding or an extravagant honeymoon. His stomach dropped a little at the thought and ran his finger so hard over an invisible fleck of dirt on the counter that it made a sharp squeak. Gods, get it together. Everything's fine. And of course, it was, she’d understand.

He kept throwing little glances over at Sebastian who was sitting at their breakfast bar with a sleek, thin, grey laptop opened up on the countertop. The sound of a low chime rang throughout the spacious kitchen and Blaine caught Seb’s eye, he looked adorably nervous. He’d even gotten a bit dressed up for the Skype call which made Blaine laugh because Seb’s mother had seen him at his worst. He stopped his redundant pacing and reached out to give his fiancé's hand a comforting squeeze, hoping it granted him a bit of courage with his wonderful whirlwind of a mother. As soon as he did so the ringing cut off and was filled with Sabine Smythe’s sweet lilting accent as she exclaimed her surprise and excitement over the face-to-face call.

He didn’t know why they were both so nervous- it was Sabine and it was silly that they’d be nervous about her reaction to how they wanted to do their own wedding. She loved them and just wanted them to be happy and healthy together. On the other hand… it was Sabine! The same Sabine wanted to plan and make things lavish and over the top and who had probably already called every place she could think of to make the day perfect for them and they hadn’t even given her a date. She was the mom who only wanted the best for her son and her future son-in-law, who always spent time making sure Sebastian knew he was loved and always made sure Blaine knew she loved him just as much as if he was hers and he loved her for it in return. She’d talked about little else since Sebastian had told her about the proposal and Blaine’s acceptance. She was beside herself excited. So excited that when Seb tried to call her last week to tell him, she’d cut him off and started to throw plans at them a mile a minute. Needless to say, this all was a week overdue and Blaine was feeling the anxiety.

He felt like maybe they were cheating her out of her motherly experience by wanting to have something small and intimate. How were they supposed to tell her they wanted a small spring wedding outside in the courtyard of their own house with Tony officiating and a small wedding party that included a dog and a familiar “cat”? Or that they wanted a lowkey honeymoon up in the mountains where they wouldn’t be bothered for a few days. Once upon a time, Blaine had thought that maybe he’d like a huge wedding with hundreds of guests and extravagant decorations but it was before his mom died and before he’d been exiled from the only life he’d ever known, including his own father. The thought of doing all of that now felt daunting and all he really wanted was to be Seb’s husband. To have someone call him Mr. Smythe-Anderson.

“B... Baby- Hey, you gonna say hello or stare out the window all evening?”

He hadn’t realized it but he’d been staring out the window at Ras chasing little flurries of snow dancing in the air of the fading sun as Freya stood nearby on the stoop watching over the loveable pup all while Blaine fantasized about being Sebastian’s Mister. Sebastian’s voice was playful as he arched his brown and then furrowed them as if to ask where he went and as if to say don’t you dare leave me alone here. Blaine ducked his head sheepishly in apology and then made his way around to stand next to Seb before leaning into his lithe body all by sighing at the comfort of being close to Sebastian brought. He grinned as Sabine’s pretty face came into view. Her green eyes, so like her son’s, shone with delight as she watched them.

“Oh, I’m sorry, I was watching Ras and Freya play in the flurries and got distracted, they’re so cute. Anyway, how are you?”

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian knew deep down that his mother wouldn’t hold their decision against them and that she would ultimately understand. He still felt a bit nervous, like how he used to feel when he would bring home a not-so-perfect grade back in high school. He could tell Blaine was going out of his way to keep his hands busy. His mother had been nothing short of supportive and they just didn’t want to let her down in any way but they had to do what was best for them. All that really mattered was that they were going to get married, they were going to put roots down together and he would marry B in the middle of the street if he had to. They both knew that at the end of the day, she’d get it but that didn’t make it less intimidating. Sebastian and Blaine made eye contact and he pressed the call button.

Sabine’s classic beauty came into view. Her blonde hair was pulled back into its classic chignon and Seb could see that she was sat in her clean kitchen. “Hey, Mom.” Sabine’s face brightened and she smiled her smooth, perfect smile and greeted him in French. Her eyes wandered around Sebastian and he could tell she was looking for his fiancé.

“B... Baby- Hey, you gonna say hello or stare out the window all evening?”

The other man made his way over and greeted Sabine in his usual charming, effortless way. Even when he had nerves, his grace still emanated from him. Sebastian loved that about Blaine and he could tell that Sabine did too.

“I’m well. To what do I owe the pleasure of getting to see my beautiful boys?”

“Well,” Sebastian looked over at Blaine who nodded in encouragement. “We have done a lot of thinking lately and-”

“Grandchildren?” Sabine cut in.

“No, Maman, we’ve talked about this.” He he spoke gently and could feel a small slump in B’s body. Sebastian placed his hand on the small of his back and rubbed slow circles to comfort them both.

“We decided that we don’t want to have a big wedding. I know how excited you’ve been to plan but, we’d just prefer something small and intimate. We wanted to tell you before you got too deep into all of this wedding stuff.”

“Right, B?” He looked at him as if to say a little help here.

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine tried his best not to visibly react to Sabine’s casual, and not without an undertone of excitement, mention of children. He knew she still held out a bit of hope that the boys would “change their minds” but that she didn’t expect anything more than the two of them bringing Ras and Freya around here and there. And themselves, of course. She had taken their news and reasoning of deciding against children mostly because of the state of the world- with grace and only rarely mentioned them. Still, it hurt a little to hear now. He knew she meant no harm by it, but that didn’t stop the dull ache. Seb’s hand at the small of his back sent a surge of comfort through him and he took a deep breath, his smile falling easily back into place as he spoke.

“We know how excited you’ve been to plan something special for us, but hey, you can still help us do that. See, we plan on having it in the Spring, when the flowers and trees are at their second best, and we wanted to just, sort of have it here- where we built a forever home together, out in the courtyard, under the trees. That’s why Seb told you I was taking care of all the flowers because they’d mostly be in nature, and well, I just love putting flowers together, as you know. But I was thinking we’re gonna need a whole bunch more and I could very much use your help picking them out.”

That wasn’t why Seb had told Sabine that Blaine would take care of flowers, he’d told her that because Blaine could grow the best flowers with his hands, but she couldn’t know that. Even though Blaine had messed up a couple of years ago and had forgotten to let a bouquet of flowers he’d given Sabine die naturally and she’d asked a bunch of questions. Thank god his guy was persuasive and good at sidetracking others. He looked at Sebastian to make sure he was doing this right getting a nudge and a little smile in return. His fiancé was probably just happy he didn’t have to say as much right now.

"Of course, you won’t just be in charge of flowers! You’ll also be an honored guest. Mother of Groom,” He paused, not knowing if he should add the next part, but his mouth was moving before he could stop himself and it felt good saying it. “Or since were nontraditional and I don’t have that option- you could even be Mother of the Grooms if you want that. Everyone that will be there knows what I’ve lost, who you are, and what you mean to me so it’s an option… It’s entirely up to you.” He tried not to think about the fact that his father would more than likely be forbidden from attending and still wasn’t sure what he’d tell Sabine or how he was supposed to be okay with that. But, he kept speaking before she could reply, his nerves getting the best of him, leaning into Sebastian for further comfort. Gods, why couldn't they just say “I do” right now? The ring was all but searing a hole into its temporary home against his chest each day it was made to wait for its own forever home on his heart finger.

“We haven’t worked out all the little details, just that we want to be at home when we tie the knot and we want your help in making a smaller ceremony happen just as much as if it were a big ceremony.” He worried his bottom lip as he watched his soon-to-be mother-in-law’s pretty face work through emotions.

“We didn’t break your heart too much today, did we?”

Sebastian’s POV:

Blaine’s easy way and natural charm were comforting as he eloquently explained all of the details to Sabine. Sebastian was good with words and could be extremely convincing, it was his career after all. But B was just a lot more patient with words where he was efficient and with something as delicate as a wedding, B was the expert.

There was a small crease of concentration between his mother’s eyebrows but it softened as Blaine explained everything. "As much as I love to plan extravagant things, I understand. I only want what makes you two happy.” Sabine’s voice was soft. Sebastian knew she would accept but relief still settled over him and he could feel his fiancé loosen up more as well. He had been given a wonderful mother and he had put her through some hell in the past but he was thankful for her and her never-ending acceptance.

“No no, no broken hearts today.” Her green eyes turned a little misty. “Of course, I’ll be the Mother of the Grooms.” A small tear fell down her cheek that she swatted away with a manicured fingernail. “You two just want to ruin all of this expensive makeup, don’t you?”

Sebastian smiled and shook his head. “Never. “ He cleared his throat to keep himself from getting too emotional while sandwiched between his two favorite people being honest and open together. It was crazy how much his life has changed since he’d met the other man. He was calmer and happier and his emotions weren’t something that he was ashamed of anymore. “As Blaine said, there are still a lot of little things that need to be figured out. Obviously, your assistance is needed. And we would love it if you helped with our tux fittings.”

He turned to look at Blaine and smiled a little relieved smile. “What am I missing? It’s go time now.”

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine’s heart gave a little flutter as he watched a tear slowly trace its way down Sabine’s pretty face and he knew it was in response to his suggestion. He had to fight the urge to keep himself from doing the same. He swallowed hard and tried his best to keep the smile on his face even though he was sure it was wobbly now at best. His laugh was easy when she quipped back to hide her emotions and he found himself shaking his head along with Sebastian. Everything still felt so surreal, in a few months, give or take a little, he’d be married and he’d have in-laws. One of which he was extremely close. He kept picturing himself getting to cook meals at the lake for the Smythe family again alongside Sabine as he’d done a couple of Summers ago. Where they had worked so well together with happy little trills of laughter while Sebastian watched them with happiness in his eyes over the steam of his coffee cup. He liked to imagine that maybe one day he could even maybe win over her accommodating yet less companionable husband the same way he’d instantly won her over. He wasn’t sure how, but he had the time now.

He was so pleased that she had taken the news of their smaller ceremony with grace, but of course, she did. It was Sabine and she was probably the most graceful person he knew now. Ideas for flowers and outfits were flitting around in his head and he couldn’t wait to sit down and write them all out. He was so happy that he’d get to say his I do’s outside, in nature. It was important to him that the trees and the wind and sunshine surround them. A little way to bring him closer to his craft and his mother. He’d find a way to sneak in a bit of flower magic into the ceremony. He’d love to have more, but normal people that weren’t allowed to know his secret would be there, and the less magic he used the better, but they couldn't stop him from having some at his wedding.

“It makes me so happy to hear you say that.” He nodded in time with what Sebastian was saying. Gods they had so much to do if they were going to do this all by Spring. He had to laugh at himself, here he was wanting a smaller wedding partially for less stress just so he could still stress over it. “Right, we have so many little things to go over, but don’t you worry about any of that right now, I’ll get back to you about the flowers as soon as I figure out what color we want and all of three of us should plan a shopping trip at the beginning of the new year for our attire” They three of them rambled on for a fair bit which resulted in Blaine pulling out his wedding pad of paper and a pen so he could take even more notes and suggestions from Sabine and Seb. And by the time they had closed the laptop Blaine’s wrist hurt.

“I think that went well.”

He laughed and leaned turned so that he was facing Sebastian. The evening had passed into full night now and with the glow of the laptop gone Seb’s face was hard to see, he placed his pen on his now-closed notebook, and then he waved his hand through the air- the glow of the kitchen lights eased themselves on much softer than they would have been if he hadn’t used magic and had just turned them on at the switch. The ambiance of magic light was much preferred though.

“How would you feel about April 27? Or we could even do June? I mean, we met on June 27 four and a half years ago,” Gods, had 2018 only happened less than five years ago?, “but that’s Summer and we wanted a Spring wedding so I thought maybe we could do the same day with a different month?”

He watched his future husband for a moment, looking up at him through his lashes and he desperately wanted to be as close to him as possible. A wave of overwhelming love for his man passed through him and he reached out to take Sebastian’s face in his hands, he leaned up and kissed him, letting his lips linger before speaking softly.

“Gods Seb- I love you so much and I just want to marry you. I really don’t care what day we pick.” Looking at Seb in a glow of magic, he hated the thought of not just doing it tomorrow. But, he knew they had to pick one, that people were counting on them. That didn’t stop him from halfheartedly joking-

“Mm, how about tomorrow?”

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian loved watching Blaine scribble in his official wedding notepad. He had teased him pretty relentlessly about it, all in good fun of course. It was actually a very nice pad of quality paper, embossed with their last names in gold script. Seb assumed that it was probably anointed too as B had picked it up at Fridays, the local temple of Aphrodite. Of course, they planned on purchasing some of their flowers from them and the devotees were swooning over their engagement. He wouldn’t be surprised if the pad were a gift from the high priestess herself. Sebastian made a small remark along the lines of ‘that thing turned out to be pretty useful after all’

Sebastian pushed the laptop to the side of their granite countertop and stretched his long arms. “It went great. Now the real fun begins.” He watched Blaine’s hand as soft, warm light illuminated their faces. Sebastian nodded. The date didn’t really mean much to him, he just wanted to be married already. “I like that idea a lot.” He leaned into the other man’s hands, they were still warm from the magic B had done. Seb leaned into the gentle kiss and sighed, his hands on Blaine’s wrists. “I love you back. So fucking much.”

He knew that Blaine was joking in a bittersweet kind of way. “If only.” Sebastian stole a few more kisses. “But, I have plans for you tonight, “ He nipped at his fiancé's ear lobe. “I think we’ll be too tired to do anything but lay in bed.” Sebastian looked down at B with a mischievous smirk. He ran his hands down the other man’s chest to settle on his waistline. “What do you say, future Mr. Smythe-Anderson?” Blaine was on him before he could think of anything else to say, the scrape of the bar stools loud in his ear as he was pressed into the countertop and covered in kisses. They left their clothing in a trail to their bedroom, scattered like rose petals down a wedding aisle.

OOC:

This RP will be going on a slight hiatus! We have two big trips coming up in May and as it’s already been hard to write as of late we’ve decided to just hold off until we have more time. Probably the middle of June, but possibly the end. Don't worry though! We shall be back with our wedding themed para at that time. Our boys will be married before you know it! <3

We will still be updating the Fic version of the RP though if you’d like to revisit. :)

You can find it here!

Thank you all for your patience and we’ll see you in June.

Para Title Taken From: Taylor Swift- Paper Rings

We will be doing a series of little mini’s to progress over the next few years of this RP. Things might get a little confusing but we promise to date them accordingly.

Under cut for length. Work is mostly unedited as usual.

Blaine’s POV:

It was amazing to Blaine how fast time flew when your life was going in a good direction. He had recently found himself thinking back to a few short years ago when his days had been lonely and mostly only filled with animals and strangers down by the river. Days when he’d sit and play his healing music in hopes of making one person out there feel a little less lonely or sad even if he couldn’t do it for himself. And now he still went to the river and played but now he lived right above it in a beautiful home and he got to do it with his soulmate and he never had to feel the ache of true loneliness again.

Sure, he missed his mother fiercely still, but he was more at peace with her memory now. His father and he had actually snuck away for an hour last night, Samhain night, and did their own little ritual for her. Their time was short because of how forbidden it was to see him since his exile, but it was the first time they’d celebrated the remembrance holiday together since she’d died and it felt so damn good to praise her and the gods with his actual father, his family- for once. He didn’t see her in the ghosts that passed by them, still couldn’t find her, and probably never would, but he could feel her close there with them. She was in the Halloween wind that brushed through their hair as they laughed together for her under the bright half-moon. He had hugged his father a little tighter last night, not knowing when he’d get to see him next before coming home and spending the rest of his evening with Seb, Freya, and Ras doing typical Halloween things before he pulled Sebastian into their room and showed him just how much he loved him. He could still feel the tingle and the almost dirty pleasure of the press and the slide of Seb’s skin and body against him as he cleaned up their home from the previous night the next day while Seb was off at work. He already had ideas in his head of doing it all over again tonight before bed. They’d stayed up late but Blaine had given him a little pick-me-up potion to keep him on his toes for the day.

It hadn’t helped that the two of them had been woken up extra early to the sounds of both of their phones going off with a slew of new pictures of Hunter and Tony’s one-month-old baby, Mel. She had been born on October 1, exactly one month ago and she was absolutely perfect in every way. They’d gotten to be the first people to hold her after her parents, something both of her grandparents had accepted considering Blaine and Sebastian would be her part-time home once Tony and Hunter went back to work next year. Secretly Blaine couldn’t wait for it, he was so in love with her and he could tell that Seb felt the same. He’d never seen him look so enamored with anyone else before and it made him feel giddy that they got to be the ones to help raise her when her parents were gone for long weeks on missions. For Hunter and Tony’s part, they were both doing amazing. Tony was the perfect mother as Blaine knew she would be, and Hunter was well, he was perfect too. The pride on Hunter’s face suited his features well.

Things had been as close to perfect for his little family over the last eight months. He and Sebastian had also both recently celebrated birthdays and even though Seb wasn’t too happy about being two years away from thirty the two of them had celebrated both days together. Sebastian’s job, still a little new to him, was going well and Seb had been able to help a few at-risk LGBTQIA teens find the help they needed. The Snowed In was booming and Blaine, in his way, had a hand in getting a few people, who had very little, find new jobs under his management. He was practically running the whole place by himself now. He wasn’t sure what else could go in their favor, but for the first time in years, he felt like something good was coming to them for once.

After cleaning he made his way up to his music room and then he allowed himself to get lost in the notes of his piano, letting the music take over and be his source of magic. The sounds filled the house and even Ras and Freya came in to watch him, calmed by the melodies that poured from him. He wasn’t sure how long he played, but it must’ve been hours because when he finally looked up the sun was heading down and the clock told him it was after 6 P.M. and that his boyfriend would be home soon. Ras and Freya seemed to know it too and they all but raced Blaine down the stairs, but Blaine laughed to himself as he used magic to pop himself to the door first, a trick that Freya was annoyed that she didn’t think of first.

Blaine didn’t always greet Sebastian at the door of their home, but when he did Seb always looked surprised and then slightly suspicious as if he didn’t know what to make of it.

“Hi, baby.”

Blaine grinned before reaching out and pulling his boyfriend into a hug and pressing a hello, I’ve missed you kiss to his lips before pulling back and looking up at him. His fingers idly and longingly toying with the clear quartz crystal that still hung, hidden only to normal humans, around Seb’s neck. Blaine had given him his and his mother’s protection two whole years ago, and still, he wasn’t ready to ask for it back even though Sebastian would give it back in a heartbeat. Maybe it was because he associated it with the trial and how he’d almost lost everything. That’s when Blaine had given it to him. Maybe he thought the council and order were still coming after them and since Seb had no magic he needed the most powerful and important object that Blaine had.

He’d made Seb a new one- a small black obsidian paired with a small, new clear quartz to amplify that protection-it had a bit of his own magic in it and he planed on charming this one too to be hidden to normal humans so Sebastian wouldn’t have to explain. But, Blaine had been afraid it wasn’t powerful enough without his mother’s magic too. And he felt too shy or felt too selfish to ask for a switch yet. It made him feel good knowing Sebastian had a bit of Imelda Anderson protecting him. Knowing that a piece of Imelda was still in there would explain his longing anyway. He was happy with Seb wearing it and he was okay without it. He patted it and let Sebastian come in the house properly to greet a tail-wagging Ras and an excited to see him but dismissive Freya.

“I guess we all missed you today even though we just spent the whole spooky night together last night.” Blaine teased, knowing he’d always miss Seb anytime he was away from him. It was only fitting that Ras and Freya would too.

“How was work? Are you hungry? I thought about trying that new recipe Tony gave me last week…”

Sebastian’s POV:

To say that time had been a whirl would be an understatement. Time had been practically nonexistent. It seemed to fly by and rush altogether into a mashup of memories and inseparable days. Seb had been working hard at the firm and starting to dip his toes into what he really wanted to do with his life and Blaine had been baking away hard at Snowed In. Holidays came, seasons changed, and the two of them faced it all side to side, just how it was meant to be.

Mel had been born and he didn’t know that such a little squishy thing could have such a strong chokehold over him. He had been terrified to hold her but Hunter encouraged him and set her in his nervous arms and he knew that the two of them would be in cahoots from that moment forward. Sebastian also loved seeing his best friend become a father, loved the glow on Tony’s face, and Blaine’s excitement. He knew that the four of them were going to make sure this little girl had the best life and he was excited to see it all play out.

Things had been good and there wasn’t a thing to complain about. The firm was doing great and going to work didn’t seem like a chore. Of course, he loved going home at the end of the day but it was nice not to dread the morning.

Though work had been going well, there was still nothing better than coming home after a long day to Ras and Blaine welcoming him and Freya pretending not to care off in a corner somewhere. He held on to Blaine and kissed him back. Blaine patted the crystal against his chest and it made a thrill of butterflies swirl in his stomach. Sebastian had been cooking up an idea in his mind for some time and the simple gesture reminded him of his plan.

He swallowed and looked down at the other man. “It was good. How was your day? Am I hungry? Is that a rhetorical question?”

Sebastian loosened his tie and feel the clear quartz thrum against his skin, it seemed like it was giving him another reminder to get things in motion. “I’m going to run upstairs and change, okay?”

Once he was in his closet he set to work. Seb was rarely nervous but this seemed like a huge fucking deal. He hoped that this all didn’t seem sudden or random. He had been thinking about this for a while and this moment just felt right. Something was telling him to just go for it, B didn’t need a giant show.

He hurriedly changed into more comfortable clothing, took a deep breath, and bounded down the stairs to the kitchen. “Hey B?” Sebastian hoped his voice didn’t waver. “I think I got a tangle in the cord of the crystal?”

Seb stepped into the kitchen with the necklace in his hand and around it, next to the crystal hung a silver band from Tiffany & Co.

“Wanna tie the knot with me, B?”

Blaine’s POV:

“It was good, I spent my day off cleaning and playing the piano. It’s been a minute since I just let myself do that. It was nice.”

Blaine couldn’t help but laugh at Sebastian’s comment, he knew better than to question his boyfriend’s hunger because of course he was hungry, the other man was always hungry. He waved Sebastian off, his mind already thinking up ways to improve the recipe he’d been sent, but as he made his way to the kitchen and moved about their large kitchen rummaging aimlessly through the cabinets and drawers unsure of what he wanted to do, he realized he wasn’t paying attention to dinner at all. There was this nervous pit in his stomach and he felt a little like he might come out of his skin. He didn’t know why, but normally these feelings were accompanied right before something big happened. However, today was just a normal day and Sebastian was being his adorable self as usual. He didn’t feel a sense of doom or fear or sadness- no, what he felt was absolute excitement. Like that sweet, bubbly feeling you get right before the first, massive drop on a roller coaster.

He found himself holding onto the smooth, cool countertop to keep himself from actually swaying. What was wrong with him? He had the urge to go up and check on Sebastian, wondering if maybe his intuition was off and maybe something was wrong after all but before he could do that Seb was making his way down the long staircase with his hand out in front of him. Blaine could see the black of the cord weaving through his fingers. His excitement was quickly replaced by confusion as that particular cord was forged by his mother and it was not supposed to ever tangle.

“Wait- what? That’s impossible…” He mumbled as he let go of the countertop and made his way towards his boyfriend. He reached out to take it from Seb’s fingers and was so worried about how the cord could possibly be broken that he almost missed the question. He looked at the crystal now in his left hand, so unassuming but so powerful and humming with the happiest, protective energy. He could feel it buzzing against his fingertips, only now there was something new. Something round and silver, and as Blaine let his fingertips explore the new object he could feel that etched into the metal were two small, perfect lines running forever around the band next to each other. It was without a doubt a wedding band- heavy, yet featherlight and expensive platinum and it had clearly been picked out with love by Sebastian’s hand. Blaine could feel its short life story thrumming through his fingers and then to his arm all the way up to his heart. He let his eyes slide to Sebastian’s face, beautiful and uncharacteristically nervous but so fucking confident in what he wanted, and Blaine’s breath caught in his throat as he blinked back confused, but ridiculously happy tears.

“Y-you want to marry me, Seb?” He let out a little laugh, his fingers closing around the necklace and pulling it close to his chest as if it might change his mind about wanting to be worn by him. He didn’t give the other man much time to respond, he was in his arms fast with his face pressed into the taller man’s chest and he nodded over and over, while a giddy whisper of, “Yes.” fell from his lips.

He had always wanted this one day, to fall in love and be loved, maybe get married one day. But, after his mom and then meeting Seb only to find out they were forbidden he’d let those thoughts go and just held tight to the thought that he was even allowed to be with Sebastian at all.- But, things were different now, he was free to be with his person, he wasn’t sure why he’d not thought this was an option. Sebastian had though, and in the most adorable and so very Sebastian way, he’d completely chosen Blaine tonight. And whether it was a conscious decision or not Seb had somehow found a way to include his mom just a bit. The gesture meant everything to him.

He pulled back enough so that he could press a kiss to Seb’s lips, his whole body absolutely trembling with elation.

“Yes, I will. It would make me the happiest person in the world to be your husband, baby.” He laughed again as he toyed with the ring, unsure if it was bad luck to wear the band before they actually got married or not because this was not an engagement ring, this was the real thing- the forever ring. Sometimes he swore the universe was just so in tune with him, or it just read his mind. He grinned as he remembered the necklace he’d made for Seb and an idea took hold of him. He looked up at Seb, eyes wide and still wet with joy. His heart felt full and wild as Sebastian smiled down at him, clearly just as happy.

“It’s an actual wedding band. It’s beautiful, Sebastian. Perfect. I- hm, do you have one, too?

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian couldn't believe this was actually happening. Never imagined standing in the kitchen of the home he owned with the love of his life, his whole life dependent on a simple question. He never saw himself proposing to anyone but once again and all over, things were different with B. Seb had known in his bones for a long time that Blaine Anderson was his and the past years had truly proven it. He didn’t care how it happened or when it happened, he just wanted to be married to this magical, beautiful, talented man.

Seb breathed a yes and caught the other man in his arms.

“Of course I want to marry you. You’re all I want and need. Forever.”

He kissed Blaine back and held him close. Sebastian looked down into Blaine's happy eyes. He hadn’t been sure how to go about the whole ring thing. What were the rules for same-sex couples? Were there any? Did there really need to be any rules about this kind of thing at all anymore? Seb definitely didn’t want to follow any heteronormative stereotype and decided to just buy two of the nicest, classiest rings he could find.

“Yes, I bought two! I just figured, you know, why not? We’ve never been a traditional couple so why start now? We can wear them now or we can wait. It’s totally up to you and I’m down for either option. I just want to marry you and I don’t care how it happens.”

Sebastian leaned down and stole a languid kiss. He couldn’t wait to take Blaine’s ecstatic self to bed and show him all the love he couldn’t put into words. They stood together and just shared the moment together before Seb broke the silence again.

“And uh, I haven’t told anybody in my family yet. Or Hunter.”

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine let himself be held and basked for a moment in Sebastian’s words. He’d said, of course he wanted to marry him like it was the most natural thing in the world. He’d said forever like there was nothing to it and even after four years of holding Sebastian in his arms and knowing that they were Fated he was still beside himself with how the butterflies in his stomach acted up whenever Seb did something sweet or so much as looked at him lovingly. All of the pain and fear and fighting to keep him seemed so small a sacrifice when he compared it to the way Sebastian was looking at him now. So small when he compared it to getting to live a life of laughter and trust and mess-ups and love. Compared to getting to grow old with the one he loved with a future of porch swings and linked wrinkled hands and steaming cups of coffee forgotten in favor of good morning kisses.

Blaine knew now without a doubt that he was going to grow old with Sebastian. He knew it before, but this just drove it further home. He could, of course, live much longer if he chose- the lifespan of a Witch could be doubled or tripled to that of a human. Naturally, most Witches were with soulmates that happened to be Witches so they could live to be two hundred without breaking a sweat, aside from tragedies like what happened with his mother, but why would he want that? The thought of living one day without his person was the worst thing he could think of. He’d wear the magical cuffs that gave him his glamoured but still very much there wrist scars forever to avoid that. He wondered if elder Sebastian would have a little stoop in his shoulders from years of carrying his tall frame, or if he himself would just get shorter with bushier eyebrows, over time. He didn’t know but he couldn’t wait to experience it. He was excited to see their years play out together.

He held onto him for a moment longer before pulling back so that he could look at him- a little moment of calm in the midst of his excitement. Gods he loved this man. He smiled up at him and nodded in agreement. He had no clue how this worked either. He never thought he’d even get it.

“You’re right, to say we aren’t traditional is a bit of an understatement. It doesn’t matter though, I’d marry you right now in this kitchen with Freya and Enjolras as witnesses if your mom wouldn’t absolutely demolish us both. But she will and we can’t do that. However, I think the rings and the string are perfect and I may have an idea on how we can set ourselves apart even more, but also make it known that we’re engaged. We’ll have to talk about how we go about telling everyone later, but tonight is ours.” He tilted his head back to accept the kiss, the sensation of Seb’s lips against his tripping down his body and pooling in his stomach and he had the urge to take Seb upstairs right now before doing anything else. Only Sebastian could make him feel so many emotions at the same time.

“Keep kissing me like that and I won’t be able to focus on anything else.” He sighed happily and slipped the necklace with his future wedding ring and his mother’s crystal around his neck. Her magic seemed to breathe congratulations, love as it nestled against his chest, its true home for the first time in two years. He breathed a sigh with it. Not wanting to waste time he stepped away from Sebastian and held up a finger, “I’ll be right back, okay? Don’t you dare move.” As if Seb would.

He rubbed the metal of the ring between his index finger and thumb, willing it to tell him where in the house its partner was, and with a little smile, he popped himself out of the kitchen and found himself in their bedroom. The little Tiffany blue box stood out against their dark bed sheets, the other ring was practically buzzing, he was surprised he hadn’t felt it before and wondered where Seb had hidden them. Probably in his immaculate closet that Blaine never touched because Sebastian had his methods and was pretty set in how he kept his things. He scooped the ring up from its robin's egg home and made his way to his bedside table where Seb’s new protection necklace waited for Blaine to give to him. He slid the ring onto the cord, his smile taking over his whole damn face before popping himself back down into the kitchen to Sebastian.

“It’s black obsidian and your own clear quartz. I made this for you a bit ago. I haven’t had the courage to give it to you because you’ve been wearing my quartz for years now and I was afraid something bad might happen if I took that one back but, I think this might be a sign that it’s time. You may not be protected by my mom’s magic anymore, but my magic is in here now. It’ll keep you safe and keep me close to you. I can charm the crystal so that others don’t see it if you want. I originally made it so they’d both be hidden to the human eye, but I want everyone to see the ring.” He reached up and knotted the cord around Sebastian's neck using magic to singe the ends together so it wouldn’t come off unless he or Sebastian wanted it to. He knew already that it felt like home to the crystal and Seb. He smoothed the black cord down against Seb’s skin before sliding his fingers down to press against the ring and two little crystals.

“My invisible string has always led to you, Seb so this only seems fitting. It always comes back to strings, doesn’t it?” He laughed echoing back to moments ago when Seb used a string to ask him to marry him and his heart flipped at the memory.

"Do you like this idea? We can do something else if you’d rather not wear it. I’m sure you’re tired after two years with this one”

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian loved watching B when he got this excited. He promised to stand still as the other man popped out of sight. He had witnessed this act a thousand times but it was always surprising to watch. Seb kept his mind occupied with the thought of Blaine’s low voice saying that he was distracting him and the delicious intention it had carried. He snapped back to reality when his fiancé once again appeared literally out of thin air.

“I think this is a great idea. Honestly, I think I’d feel naked without my own cord at this point. I love being naked but you get the idea.”

Sebastian nodded. Blaine was right, after all. It really did always come back to strings with them. Their destiny and connection to each other had been woven through the constellations thanks to a beautiful Goddess. When Blaine magically tied the cord around his neck, it fell right into place like it knew where its home was.

He turned to face the other man and wrapped his arms around his slim waist. The two of them swayed gently and kissed each other for a few moments before Sebastian lifted his head with a satisfied hum. He kept his body close to Blaine and hoped that he’d become “distracted” again. Sebastian knew they had the same thing on their mind.

“I love you.”

Blaine’s POV:

“Yeah? Gods, I’m so glad you like it. I didn’t know why at the time, but I’ve been a little afraid to give it to you. Now maybe I’m realizing that I was just waiting for this moment. I’ve had this excited feeling in the pit of my stomach for a little bit and now I guess I know why. You are absolutely the most romantic, you know that right? This just cements that fact.”

Blaine couldn’t help the grin that felt permanently fixed on his face as he spoke. He felt overwhelmed with such a swell of emotions he didn’t know whether to cry or to kiss Sebastian breathless right here. Who needed a bed anyway? However, between the look on Seb’s face and the way the taller man had pulled him close told Blaine that Seb wanted more than one go around. Besides they deserved so much more than a fast and hard romp on the floor no matter how much fun they’d had doing that in the past. No, Sebastian deserved to be kissed and touched head to toe. Blaine wanted and needed to take his time. Once again his stomach did a little dip and spin as Sebastian, his fiancé, pressed a kiss to his lips and swayed with him.

Blaine adored moments like this. Moments when the only people that existed were the two of them- just for a second. He closed his eyes and let his lips and then tongue explore Sebastian’s sweet mouth for a moment as they slowly danced to music that only the two of them could hear completely wrapped up in each other. His heart flitted giddily over Sebastian’s declarations of love and he felt like he did four years ago when they’d first said it and their bond had only gotten stronger from then. He nuzzled into Seb’s chest as he gathered himself from their moment, and his voice only cracked a little bit with emotion.

“Gods, I love you back.”

And as he lay between Sebastian’s legs- his fiancé's body naked, and open and begging- Please, Blaine as Blaine pressed him into their bed, his lips and fingers exploring and teasing, loving- he found that he wasn’t worried about the immediate future for once. Everything, for the first time ever, seemed to be falling into place around him and his. He couldn’t imagine being happier than he was right now.

Sebastian’s POV:

As they ran up the stairs, laughing and smiling, Sebastian decided he could live in this blissful snapshot forever. That if heaven was what you made it, it would be Blaine’s giddy smile under warm kitchen lights and his hands as they tugged at each other's clothes in the dark of the bedroom.

Laying on the bed with Blaine in between his legs kissing and touching everywhere, everything felt peaceful and passionate all at once. They were finally living a life as close to normal as they ever would and life had never felt so satisfying.

They spent the night intertwined, a mix of limbs and bedsheets and soft sighs. Sebastian wasn’t sure when they had drifted off to sleep but he woke up in B's arms. The light of dawn filtered through the blinds and splashed across the other man’s skin as his chest gently rose and fell. Sebastian couldn’t wait for a forever filled with these small, beautiful moments.

/fin.

OOC:

Hello! We know we said we’d be back early December and we really wanted to be because these boys mean the world to us! However, things are still extremely hectic at the moment with holidays, everyday work, and some severe mental health struggles. BUT! We are currently working on a very, very important Para for this RP and it will be posted in the new year. (More than likely in the first two weeks of January.)

From here on out the paras will be little time skips throughout the boys lives together and each one is super important in it’s own way. We still have a lot to share before it ends, but we’re probably going to be very slow, slower than before from here on out.

Thanks so so much to our followers that have stuck around with us throughout the last almost three (yes THREE) years. We appreciate your patience and still can’t wait to share the rest of this story. ♥

Happy Yule/Holidays!

-S(Blaine) & H(Seb)

Hello Everyone!

We wanted to stop in and let everyone know that we will officially be back to posting a decent-sized para at least once a month starting in early December. We’ve missed our babies so much. (of course they’re always with us in our heads and hearts but you know what we mean. Haha.) However, with a major change in our schedules, it’s been incredibly difficult to figure out the time to actually sit down write out all the para’s we have in mind to continue this crazy journey.

However! We’re working on it, and pretty much have it figured out. We have so much more of their story to tell and we appreciate your patience while we figure out our lives and how to showcase our love for these two properly again.

We’ll see you all in December.

-S(B) & H(Seb)

OOC:

Hey there everyone!

We just wanted to give a quick update and let everyone know that while we’re still going to be considered active we have to take a bit of a break for some serious personal reasons. It’s been an incredibly rough two months for us and we feel as though stepping back for a month or two is the best thing for us to do. We want to put out quality writing and right now it’s not really happening. We know we’ve posted lots of OOC’s lately but we like to make sure you all know that when we’re gone for awhile that it doesn’t mean we’ve abandoned. We’re not close to done.

So, don’t worry, we will be back. Writing these two beautiful boys is one of our passions and we want to keep doing it! We just need to save some space for ourselves for a bit and take care of our mental health. We even have our next few paras outlined! Chapters will still be updated to our AO3 account, but if you follow you’ve probably read what we’ve posted so far. (We call the fic for this RP Some Kind Of Magic under the username shwrites)

So hang in there for us and we’ll see you all soon! Maybe even sooner than expected. :)

We appreciate all of you. <3

-S(Blaine) & H(Seb)

We will be doing a series of little mini’s to progress over the next few years of this RP. Things might get a little confusing but we promise to date them accordingly.

Under cut for length. Work is mostly unedited as usual.

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine’s heart was full and thumped happily in his chest as he poured out four glasses of cabernet sauvignon and giggled with a smiling Tony. He listened to the sounds of his boyfriend and his boyfriend’s best friend Hunter carrying on out in the courtyard. Their new home felt awake and alive tonight after a dinner that Blaine had planned out perfectly, only the second one in their home. Sebastian had done his best to help, but mostly stuck to meticulously clearing and organizing which was saying something as they’d only lived here for a few months now. Neither Tony or Blaine knew what their boyfriends were doing in there, only that they kept hearing random slaps on skin and loud oofs followed by faux annoyance in both of their voices only to be soothed by tipsy laughter.

The night had gone on perfectly- they’d had dinner out in the courtyard, the spring air was a bit chilly but they were warmed by the cute little firepit Blaine had put in. And since he was with company that knew what he was, Blaine had offered some magic and the whole area had been pleasantly buzzing with his heated energy all night long. Enjolras loved getting to run around wildly with Freya, who still insisted she didn’t run around. But, Blaine had caught her multiple times tonight and promised her he wouldn’t tease her too much. Besides, Ras loved it when she played with him, he’d hate for her to stop. The thought was almost laughable to him as soon as he thought it-Freya would let Blaine dress her up in cat clothing if she thought it would please the golden pup, she loved him that much. He could feel the two of them still running around out there in the glow of the firelight just outside the kitchen door.

He was happy, very much so, but this little ache like a bruise pressed over his heart. Don’t get him wrong, he loved having Hunter and Tony around- Hunter was Seb’s best friend and had done so much for both of them. And Tony, well she was pretty much Blaine’s little sister at this point. They shared a bond, a different kind of fate that few others could touch. Still, he wished he could invite David and Nick, and of course his father, but he knew he had to keep his friends at arms length to save face, and he had to keep his dad even further away. He tried to picture Sam in the room with all of them, and knew instantly that his best friend would probably fit right in, despite not being able to know the truth of it all. Tony would laugh at Sam’s jokes and Hunter would do the same and then quiz him about Japan. Too bad he was still over there, living his dream with his adorable girlfriend.

And then there was his mom. All of these years and her absence still felt like a sucker punch to the chest when he thought about it. He pressed his hand over his heart just at the spot where her crystal used to rest and wondered how long she’d let Seb wear it. He could tell it was getting antsy to come back every single time he touched his boyfriend. But, he still wasn’t ready. He’d give almost anything to have all of them here so he could show them how far he’d come and good things had turned out. He wanted to show off his beautiful home and his gorgeous person, not to boast but to say hey, I made it even when I didn’t think I would… Missing those few people was the only thing keeping Blaine from feeling the happiest he’d ever felt. And even with them not being there, he was pretty damn happy.

He sighed and dropped his hand before turning to Tony- her large grey eyes now studying him curiously and he knew she knew he was silently working through something. He gave her a big, genuine smile and shrugged.

“Everything’s okay, Tony. I promise.” He pushed the try full of drinks towards her and scooped up the decadent round dark chocolate mousse cake he’d made from scratch yesterday. He noted that a few raspberries were missing from the top and wondered which one of them had stolen them, Hunter or Sebastian. He knew it was probably Sebastian- it was like his boyfriend felt compelled to steal food from desserts or salads that would taste just the same out of the package. He smiled to himself as he nodded towards the door, imagining Seb sneaking into the kitchen last night and opting to steal two raspberries from the cake instead of the fridge. He’d probably give Blaine some excuse about wanting the chocolate on it. Tony caught his smile and shook her head.

“You’ve gone from happy to a little melancholy and now back to happy again in the span of three seconds, , you’re going through it tonight, aren’t you, babe? Something you want to talk about? We’ve got a little time before they get too stupid.” She laughed and nudged him before getting a sparkling water from the fridge for herself. “I don’t want to get too tipsy, you know, we are staying here as guests and someone’s gotta keep Hunter in line. I can see it now, he’ll end up dragging the two of us to your bed because his drunken mind thinks that’s a normal thing to do when you’re staying at your best friend's house.” She teased, but Blaine hadn’t witnessed her drink much of anything with alcohol tonight, let alone get any kind of tipsy. She’d been sipping on water most of the time. Her energy felt high and positive, she was happy. So he didn’t think too much of it. But, she was right, Hunter probably would find a way to implant himself into his and Sebastian’s bed and drag Tony with him. All six of them, Freya and Ras included, just snuggled up. As if on cue, Hunter’s crackle of delight soared from outside and through the kitchen.

“I’m really okay, just thinking about things I can’t really change. I am happy though, you’ve got it right. And Gods, you’re probably right about Hunter. I mean, as comfortable as that sounds… he has a whole room here that he can roll all over to his heart's content.” He nodded towards the door. “What are they even doing out there? We should probably go feed them some more before someone gets hurt.”

She laughed, knowing he was right and nodded, still looking a little skeptical over his answer, but she sat her water down on the drink try and walked with him out into the magically warm March air and Blaine followed. Both men looked up at them, the echo of a laugh still hanging in the air. Blaine made his way towards Seb, sat the cake down on the table and snuggled into his boyfriend's side.

“Do I even want to know what you’re doing out here? Also, did you steal my raspberries, Sebastian? You messed up my aesthetic.” He teased, pressing his lips into Seb’s jaw and nuzzling into his neck. He could hear Hunter’s childish, teasing ewwws and he looked over at his friend, who was just as snuggled up with his girlfriend, with wide eyes.

“Keep it up, Clarington and I won’t give you any cake.” To which Hunter followed up with a scandalized and very dramatic face of woe even as Blaine moved forward to cut each one of them a slice.

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian thought that he would hate having company over at the new house. After a successful holiday season with a visit to Ohio where he realized he missed his mother, Wick, and Luke more than he thought he did and a few small gatherings he decided he didn’t mind it. He was actually excited to have little parties here and there and he knew how happy it made Blaine to prepare artistic charcuterie boards and bake mini desserts.

When Tony and Hunter came over, things always felt natural. Ever since everything had calmed down after the trial, things with his best friend felt normal again. Sometimes when they were joking around over beers (and a cigarette for Sebastian) he’d forget that Hunter actually was a hunter of supernatural beings. He liked how easy and connected B and Tony seemed and that things just finally seemed settled into place as much as they could be when you were implanted into a magical world.

The two of them had been roasting each other and laughing in the courtyard. Normally Seb wouldn’t choose to sit out in the chill but B had extended his magical warmth throughout the area. Sebastian had hit his tipsy best friend in the arm a little too hard and he fell out of his chair a little bit and spilled some of his drink and the ground. They burst into laughter because well, there was just no reason that Seb should have been able to get one over on somebody trained in combat. Hunter made a sly comment about how he had a soft spot for him and that was the only reason it had happened.

Tony and Blaine had made their way into the courtyard with more drinks and cake and had snuggled up to their significant others.

“Hunter was just flirting with me. You should like, zap him or something.” He waved his hand in the air like little volts were shooting from his fingertips. “I might have snuck a few, they taste better with the chocolate.” He liked how Blaine’s lips felt on his jaw, a tingle slid its way up his spine.

Hunter’s POV:

Hunter’s skin felt electric with excitement. They were all gathered around the small fire pit, the air comfortably warm with Blaine’s magic. He felt giddy from the wine, Bas’ laugh, and Tony’s glow. Her soft body pressed into his side, his arm wrapped around her. Everything felt right and he knew that tonight was the perfect night.

Hunter leaned forward and plucked a raspberry from Sebastian’s perfect slice of cake and popped it into his mouth.

“You’re a tattletale. You know I could stop him, right?”

Tony’s elbow gently poked his side, “You could try. I think I’d let him give you a good zap.”

Blaine smiled and Sebastian took a smug bite of cake and Tony giggled into her sparkling water. He couldn’t help but smile, couldn’t even joke about his feelings being hurt. Things may not be lining up how he had always pictured them but he felt satisfied and truly happy. He and his best friend were in love with two amazing people and their friendship had remained just as strong. Their lives were all changing for the better.

Blaine gave in and slid him a small plate with a decadent slice on it. Tony stole his raspberry which he knew he deserved. “You’re lucky you’re cute.” She kissed him and he could taste the slightest hint of berries on her lips.

After everyone’s bellies were full and their drinks were refilled the night fell into a comfortable silence. Hunter could hear dove’s somewhere in the courtyard, Tony’s breathing, and the traffic on the streets. He gently nudged Tony and they held eye contact for a few minutes, she knew what he was thinking.

Antoinette’s (Tony) POV:

Tony glanced around the courtyard, feeling full of happiness and hope she hadn’t felt in a very long time. For the first time since she’d been cursed with sickness as a child, she felt like things were actually going to be okay. She was a full-time, certified member of the Order now, she was able to freely train and got to work with the love of her life every single day. Hunter always had her back and she always had his. She got to spend time with Blaine, someone that understood her more than almost anyone else in the world, someone she had bonded with as soon as they met, by extension of both Hunter and Blaine she was able to spend time with Sebastian. A person who made both of her boys incredibly happy and therefore made her happy. She had secretly started calling the three of them her boys in her head and she wondered as he laid her hand on her stomach if she’d be adding another one into the mix soon.

“Something does tell me that Blaine might have a leg up here though, it is his house after all. I mean, we’re actually sitting in a swarm of his magic right now.” She looked over at Blaine and grinned with a shrug while blatantly betraying her own boyfriend. She’d figure out a way to make it up to him later. She secretly sometimes wondered what hidden potential her friend had hidden away. She’d met both his mother and father and they’d both done incredible things and it made her wonder what secrets or untapped power Blaine Anderson might be carrying around. She also sort of hoped that maybe they never found out.

Good Witches tended to only pull out the crazy magic when things were about to go incredibly bad. Imelda when saving her, and well, Will was on the Council, he got to do bigger magic every day. She knew Blaine was close to cashing in his good card and possibly doing something drastic during his trials, but they’d all pulled through and he didn’t have to. She supposed that was for the best, they were all here now and happy and well, she’d take that over getting an answer to her curiosities any day.

She couldn't help the little smile that played on her lips as they finished their food and drinks and when Hunter snuggled in a little closer and dipped down to get her to look at him, she knew it was time to let them in on the reason they’d wanted to come this weekend in the first place. Her heart gave a little flutter and she cleared her throat as she looked up at Blaine and Sebastian. They had three full things to tell them. The first one was the easy part, the other two were a little harder.

“I’m sure you’ve all noticed that I’ve not exactly been indulging in the spirits with you.” She laughed a little and settled her hand over her mostly flat belly again. The very tiniest swell was there and you had to know she was carrying in order to tell at all. Hunter insisted he could tell when he laid his head on her stomach at night, but she could hardly tell herself. She was only thirteen weeks along as of three days ago. She thought it was cute though so she let him coo at her. “That’s because well, we’re having a baby.” She grinned, enjoying the changes in the faces of the two men sitting across from her. From surprise, to happiness, to what might have been sadness- she felt that one... and back to happiness before crossing over into what could be described as elation. “We’re due at the end of September, early October.” She held her hand to keep them from advancing on her just yet. She had more to say and number two was the the second hardest-

“Before you get too ahead of me, we have a couple more things to ask…” She paused, she knew that Blaine and Sebastian had been through hell and that they had made many sacrifices to be together, including finding out that they’d never get to be parents together, so she didn’t want to fuck this bit up. She reached over and took Hunter’s hand for comfort and then looked from Sebastian, who was holding sweetly onto his boyfriend and giving Hunter a sort of amazed look- to Blaine and settled on his kind, eager, wide golden eyes. Eyes that reminded her so much of his mom, now that her memories of the wonderful woman had been restored.

“We- both Hunter and I, were wondering if, no matter what we have, if you, Blaine, would give us the honor of naming them Mel.”

She waited, watching Blaine carefully. How he took this question would help decide if the last big thing they wanted to ask them was plausible. If Blaine reacted negatively maybe they shouldn’t be asking such big things in the first place, but if he accepted then they had the biggest, possibly life changing question to ask the two of them. She was nervous as she watched him process with Sebastian’s help.

Blaine’s POV:

There were doves again. They cooing and twittering all over the courtyard. Little flits of pale pink and grey and white here and there, making for a lovely show… Blaine didn’t always notice them right away, but when he did they always seemed to make a big show by spreading their pretty wings and flocking around Sebastian in particular. As if showing him off- Like hey, look over here, this one’s ours. As if Blaine didn’t know all about Aphrodite's advanced role in their Fate’s intertwining. They had an actual altar to her in their bedroom. It still left him beside himself whenever he woke up, or came home to find decadent dark chocolates or expensive flowers or deep red wine left as an offering to her. If it had always been him doing it, that would have been one thing, but these things came from Sebastian and that in and of itself was baffling. He figured his logical, lawyer boyfriend would drop a chocolate kiss or a petal here and there, but most of the time Blaine found incredibly nice things for the goddess of love and beauty. Sebastian seemed to take her presence as seriously as he did. Maybe the presence of the doves was a gift for them. A constant sweet soundtrack to everyday life inside (and outside) of the Smythe-Anderson home.

The doves seemed to coo even more sweetly as Tony revealed her and Hunter’s amazing news. So sweetly in fact that Blaine almost missed it for grinning up at the fluttering birds. His head snapped back down as he caught the words due at the end of September, early October… He wanted to do three things all at once. First he wanted to flock to Tony like the doves seemed to love doing to Seb, and wrap her up to congratulate her, but something her in demeanor said to sit back for a second, then he wanted to go to Hunter and do the same, but again, they both seemed to be telling them that wait, there’s more. The third bit was that he wanted to cry a little, a happy one, mind you. Because maybe there was hope for a child to be in their lives somewhat now. One that maybe they could become friends with and when Hunter and Tony visited every few months they’d maybe prefer hanging out with him and Seb. Maybe they’d get cute nicknames one day. Maybe.

He was still processing the information and the excitement when Tony asked her next question. The name was pretty and gender-neutral. He liked it as soon as she said it. He had a familiarity with it that he couldn't place his finger on. Yet, he had no clue why they seemed to be asking for his permission to use it. How could he give them honor over a name?

Seb was mumbling his name in question. He looked at him wondering why his boyfriend was holding onto him and rubbing his back so comfortingly, like he’d been told something sad. Or why Hunter and Tony were looking at him with wide, waiting eyes, looking and exuding the feeling of nervousness. Why was the focus on him? Shouldn’t it be on Tony and Hunter? He looked over at Seb a little confused. His boyfriend cocked his head to the side, not understanding his reaction, gave his hand a comforting squeeze and it wasn’t until Blaine tried saying the name out loud to Seb to question it that he understood.

“Mel? Oh...”

He swallowed hard and blinked once and then twice as everything seemed to fall into place for him. Imelda. Mel… They wanted to name their baby after his mom. The two of them knew that he and Seb wouldn't be able to, so they were asking to do it for them. His heart felt full and sad and he sniffled, blinking back tears as he spoke. His voice a little thick.

“Oh, I would love that, guys. I truly would.” He bit his lip and leaned into Sebastian, feeling shy and overexposed all of the sudden. “She would love that…” He hid his face in Seb’s neck for a moment to collect himself, and smiled as Seb pressed a kiss to his forehead, gaining comfort from his soulmate and grounding himself. He pulled back to rejoin the group just in time for Hunter to clear his throat as if he had something more to say. Blaine could feel this was a big one...

Hunter’s POV:

Hunter wrapped his arm around Tony’s shoulders and pulled her in even closer. He was delighted by Sebastian’s surprised face, his mouth agape for about 3 solid seconds before he mouthed ‘you motherfucker!’ It made him laugh with how simply Bas the reaction was and then there was Blaine, all wide eyed and shy. Hunter was thankful that Blaine had reacted positively to their request. If it weren’t for Imelda’s selflessness and power, none of this would have happened.

“Thank you, Blaine. It means a lot to us,” Tony nodded in agreement.

“We do have one more question.” Hunter shifted in his seat a little bit. This part was big and his stomach felt acidic with nerves. Before all this, he had thought that he and Sebastian had seen it all together. Asking his best friend this next question felt heavy and scarier than any mission he’d ever go on.

“Would you two do us the honor of being the baby’s guardians? Like god parents, only way more. You know, like...on paper. Would you be willing to take care of them while we’re on missions and such? To bring them into your home? Take them in...if...a mission went south.” He couldn’t bring himself to say the words, ‘in case we die.’ when everything felt new and positive, even if they both knew their field was extremely dangerous.

“Well, don’t keep us waiting fellas.”

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian smiled and watched his boyfriend’s face closely. It would have been comical how long it took for the name’s significance to settle into his brain but the entire interaction was just, well, wholesome. He pressed a kiss to Blaine’s forehead and waited for him to peek out again. The gesture of choosing the name Mel was very sweet, even an old cynic like Seb could admit that.

The change in Hunter’s tone made his ears prick up. He knew him like his favorite TV show, comforting and reliable for background noise that made his pre B world feel a little less empty. Whenever the other man got serious on him it made Sebastian feel a bit on edge. Not because he was afraid to see Hunter serious, just because he never really knew what to expect and that made his organized microcosm feel a little bit wobbly.

The question that had been asked was not one he had been expecting. He didn’t even think that this was a topic that either one of them, Hunter or Sebastian, had ever talked about. Seb blinked a few times and felt his Blaine shift next to him. He had always thought that he was bad with kids, that he didn’t like them all that much. But, getting to know his little cousin Luke had changed his mind and he really loved to see the light in B’s eyes when they played their games of make believe. There was a warmth that spread through his body, something protective. None of this was ever in the plans they had made over midnights and pizzas and the bellyache of laughter. This was big and special and the most important thing Hunter had ever asked him to do. Especially now that he and Blaine had had their opportunity ripped away...

“I...do we need to think about this or…?” He pulled away a bit to look down at his boyfriend. “ I know that I...would really love to do that.”

Sebastian knew that Blaine felt the same way as he did.

Blaine’s POV:

Once again Blaine was a bit slow on the uptake, he was having a bit of a hard time processing what was being asked of them. Not because he didn’t want it, but because it was more than he thought they’d ever get. His heart thudded in his chest as he looked up at Sebastian, hardly allowing himself to believe what he was hearing. The moment passed and his face broke out into a smile as he pulled Seb closer, squeezing him to show him that no, they didn’t need to think about this. It was truly a no brainer. He turned his attention over to Hunter and Tony and gave them an even bigger smile.

“No, no we don’t need to think about it. I’m with Seb without a doubt… I’d love that more than anything.” He laughed a little, his eyes still bright with tears. Of course he knew accepting came at a price, it put the very real threat that one or both of them might die in the field. They were hunters that worked for the Order in very real dangerous situations. And chances of them dying together were much larger considering they worked right next to each other. It made him, and no doubt Sebastian, look that ugly truth right in the face. “I’m gonna have to double down on protection spells and maybe even make you a few charms because there is no way you’re not going to be around to see this baby grow up.” He made mental notes of the charms and ingredients he’d need for their protection even as he spoke. His brain seemed to be in overdrive as a new person to care about was just on the horizon. He wanted to protect them with his magic and his own self and he didn’t even know them yet. “Tony, how do you feel about letting me make you a little something even more extra while you’re pregnant? And, before you ask, I planned on asking if I could do that before you asked us to assist in the life of your child.”

The four of them sat and talked for a couple more hours, mostly about the baby and what steps they needed to take for their wishes to come to term, but they slipped a few other things in here and there. There were plenty of laughs, Hunter convinced Seb to take a few shots with him for old times sake and even convinced Blaine to take a couple- one for him and one for Tony since she couldn’t, and he obliged.

Blaine had a few moments of panic where he thought maybe he wasn’t cut out for this task that was being asked of him, but he’d look over at Tony and see his mother, just a little bit, and how light Hunter seemed to be right now, and then at his boyfriend, his soulmate, his person and it would all slip away… Seb looked happy and hopeful and he held Blaine close the whole time they sat and talked and drank. It was hard to feel anything other than good when Sebastian looked like that.

Eventually Seb started to yawn and even suggested that Blaine use magic to clean up their messes, which was wild to him considering Sebastian usually liked for him to keep magic more simple. Even after all these years, Seb still would stare in awe and wonder and a little bit of warrant fear over some of the magical tasks that Blaine could perform. And magically cleaning a whole house in one go would do that trick. Seb wasn’t afraid of Blaine, but magic was wild and even though Blaine was a very practiced Witch, he knew seeing something like that to a logical mind like Seb’s was a bit overwhelming. So he said goodnight to Hunter and Tony who were sleeping in the guest room and sent Seb to get ready for bed before doing his fancy bit of cleaning magic. Within minutes the courtyard and kitchen were both spotless and Blaine had rounded up Freya and Enjolras and locked the doors, and renewed his protective spells around the perimeters of the new house. His cat familiar and his not so little pup followed him up the stairs and they were both asleep at the foot of the huge bed before he could change into his pajamas. He was still buzzing with excitement as he snuggled in next to Sebastian whose energy was just as excited, if not drowsy with drink. He might just be making mild hangover cures for Sebastian and Hunter the next day.

“It looks like we found a bit of a loophole, didn’t we?” He laughed gently and pulled his drowsy boyfriend into his arms. “I mean, they said neither one of us could father children or adopt. They never said anything about being partial guardians. And they’ll be the child of two hunters, that just means they’ll get to know the truth about Witches and magic and what their parents do when they’re young, we won’t have anything to hide from them.” He paused, watching Seb’s face in the dim light. “I know it’s not what we may have eventually wanted, but I think it worked out for us. We get to be there for them. They have a safe space for their kid and we get to be important to someone. I’m really happy. Plus, you’re a lawyer, so if the Council tries to stop us from helping Hunter and Tony, you can help fight it.”

Seb snuggled into him and reassured him that he was just as happy, his words and little kisses tipsy against Blaine’s jaw. Blaine could have talked about the kid and their future forever, but he was much more sober since he was mostly made of magic and stardust, sort of, and he knew Seb would too under normal circumstances. But his boyfriend was overly happy and drunk and sleep would bring morning and morning would bring the excitement of Blaine getting to tell Sebastian of the ideas he had for the third bedroom. Hunter and Tony were gone a lot on missions, sometimes it added up to about five months out of a year. And then they only got a year and a half off after the baby was born and then it was back to the grind and of course they’d be bringing the baby over before that year was up so they could bond, so naturally the baby needed a bedroom!

He looked down at Sebastian and pressed a soft kiss to his lips, smiling when Seb mumbled his love. Blaine kissed him back and loved him just as much before settling down with the comforting weight of Seb on his chest. An array of ideas and elation for his friends and for them as he slipped into slumber.

Under cut for length and some content. Work is mostly unedited as usual.

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine couldn’t help the smile that spread across his face as he stood in the doorway of Sebastian's new office in their new home. The shelves were built into the white of high walls and trimmed in soft grey and his boyfriend was currently on top of the world as he slid book after book into their new home. Sebastian radiated positive energy, oblivious to Blaine watching over him, completely unaware as Blaine pulled out his phone and silently captured yet another moment in the next chapter of their lives together. He couldn’t wait to send it off for a physical copy so he could add the memory to their new walls.

The last few months had hit so fast, one second the two of them were just browsing and the next they were putting in an offer and the. signing their joined names on papers that said this house was theirs forever. If Blaine were to let himself sit and think about it, he’d probably discover that he had whiplash from the whirlwind of it all. Their new home, originally supposed to just be a second step towards a better house in a few years, ended up just being a final step. The place was a fucking dream- an expensive riverfront, three story, three bedroom, plus office space, two bath historical townhome and out of budget dream... but between them, and old family money and trusts on both sides, they made it work- with Seb pushing just a bit harder by telling Blaine they’d get to grow old here while they looked out over the very river they’d met each other three years ago. It all made him incredibly anxious, but it was impossible not to visualize once Blaine stepped foot in the gigantic, open kitchen with windows that let the sun and moonlight shine in and counter space to die for. And Seb’s eyes had grown twice their size when the office was presented to him and Blaine knew that his boyfriend was in love again. He supposed he was, too.

The bricks and foundation had been formed over 150 years ago and had been updated with love over those years and it was almost as if each modern, yet respectful update had been made with Sebastian and Blaine ending up there together in mind. Who knew, maybe it had been, maybe the Fates and the Gods were rewarding them for all they’d been through together. But, standing in it now Blaine couldn’t imagine them anywhere else. It felt unreal even though Blaine had spent the last twenty-four hours after leaving Ohio from a visit with Sabine and the rest of the Smythe’s slowly unpacking their belongings, old and new. Apart of him wanted to magic it all together to see the final product, but watching Seb here now reminded him that doing it this way was much more meaningful. They needed to do this together, just the two of them. It was their baby now.

They’d said a bittersweet goodbye to Seb’s and his old apartment; the one that held so many memories of happiness and sorrow, where he’d healed over the last year from his trial (gods, had it really been a year?), where they’d fought tooth and nail to be together… right before going home to Ohio for Thanksgiving. They’d hit the ground running as soon as they got back in yesterday morning and the house was almost ready for them to start living. It was big, but they’d made it all so cozy- the warm glow of November's fall seemed to wrap the russet bricks of their home up in it’s arms and all Blaine wanted to do was curl up on their new couch with some tea and have Sebastian wrapped tightly in his arms as they watched something cheesy and silly to get them into the holiday spirit, and then maybe he could pull Seb into their bed and they could finally test it out until they fell asleep, exhausted and elated. However, there was still so much to do and Freya was helping them by keeping Ras busy chasing her playfully around their new playground- a little private courtyard. Blaine really should stop staring and go finish putting his kitchen together. But Seb looked so content and beautiful in his concentration that Blaine found he couldn't pull himself away just yet. All his anxieties about the price seemed to float away as he watched. He cleared his throat to speak, his voice quiet as he softly stepped onto the hardwood floor of the office.

“Gods, I can’t get over how happy you look here, baby.”

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian had never really cared for the word forever. It was too final and seemed like some sort of prison sentence. A word that people flung around without truly thinking about what it meant. That was until Blaine quite literally tumbled into his life and things just started to seem real for once. Marriage seemed like a possibility and building a stable home just seemed logical. Everything fell into place after the dust from the trial settled and the two of them had been perfectly content and well, Seb could finally see what forever looked like. It looked like Blaine cooking in their new kitchen, his bare feet on the hardwood floor, the scent of garlic and olive oil carried by the river breeze rushing through the windows. Forever was his meticulous bookshelves and fall leaves in the courtyard, Christmas lights, New year’s kisses in a place that was theirs.

Seb thought that searching for a home and all of the work wound up in it was going to take a long time but, it all happened rather quickly and luckily, it was easy for them. Time didn’t seem to exist as packing turned into their Thanksgiving visit (lots of housewarming gifts from Sabine and Wick, he had never seen his mother so elated.) and suddenly they were standing in the doorway to their new home on a gust of cold November wind.

He teetered on the step ladder as he slipped one of his many copies of Les Mis on the shelf. Sebastian had sensed Blaine’s presence before he saw him, he let him admire the view for a bit longer before he looked down at the other man.

“I love this room,” He smiled and stepped down from the shelf. Sebastian looked around the crisp white room. Sun fell through the window and splayed across the floor in a satisfying way. He looked forward to the summer sunshine and the warmth it would bring to his little office.

“You seem happy, too.” Sebastian stepped forward and leaned in for a kiss. “How’s the kitchen look? Think you can work with it?” He knew that B loved it and wouldn’t stop gushing about the counter space. “Excited to experiment?”

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine let himself really feel the simple kiss for a moment before pulling back to smile up at Sebastian. It was amazing to him that after over three years butterflies still beat against his ribcage and his skin still prickled with emotion every single time this man touched him. Sure, perhaps he was a bit more amped up right now from the high of such a big step, but it was always there. That floating up, up, up and then the freefall down only to be caught with Sebastian’s arms tightly around him feeling. He sighed and cleared his throat, there was plenty of time for Blaine to capture that feeling again and again after the house was done. Nevermind that it was too late now to push it away. He was completely wrapped up in the look on Seb’s face as his boyfriend teased, yes teased him about his new kitchen. He took the bait anyway, the place was too damn spectacular to brush off.

“I am the happiest I’ve ever been, I mean, I say that like every new month, but I mean it this time. I’m not sure how it could get better.” He grinned even bigger, his fingers moving up to rest against Seb’s chest, the clear quartz Blaine had lent him for protection over a year ago now vibrated pleasantly under his fingertips as if telling him that Sebastian was safe now and that he could take it back. It felt like his mom telling him Sebastian would be more than okay without it, but Blaine wasn’t ready. Please. Not just yet.

“Can I work with it? Gods, I mean, you saw the kitchen, right? Your office is awesome with it’s built-in bookshelves and tranquility that give even our very magical beach cottage a run for its money, but did you see the island in the kitchen? Did you see how much shelf space I have? Do you know how much food you’re going to get to consume in the next lifetime- I hope you’re ready. I just have so much space to make everything in! I can bake for the Snowed-In at home now, I don’t have to go in at 4 am as much anymore. Yeah, I can’t wait, and I can so work with it”

He laughed, his hands trailing down to rest on Sebastian’s hips as he spoke, his grin gowning. “You realize that we can host holidays now? We don’t always have to go to Ohio, your mom and Uncle Wick and Luke can come here, Seb! Thomas too if he wants… I mean of course I’ll have to do everything naturally when they’re here, but I don’t mind because how nice is that? We can see them more. Oh! Tony and Hunter have a room they can sleep in now, they can stay for a few days before missions and not be cramped up on the couch with no privacy” He paused, biting his bottom lip, his grin turning into a wistful smile. “My dad might even get to visit every so often too, I mean, I know he can't be around too much, but there’s a place for him. He was so happy for us when we told him, I doubt even the High Order can keep him away permanently.” His lips curved back into their grin, wanting to keep the mood playful and not melancholy with thoughts of the trial and losses.

“And don’t get me started on the view of our river and that courtyard that Ras and Freya have taken over. Have I mentioned the kitchen?” He tiptoed up and stole himself one kiss, and then two more before pulling back to speak again.

“I’m actually pretty much done setting it up, you’ll have to come look when you get the chance. I’m about to go through each room and recharge the protection spells I’ve done. I know I spent two hours covering the whole place last night, but I just feel like this is such a big deal that I need to make sure they’re good enough, you know? I absolutely can’t let anything ruin this for us, and a shitty protection charm would just be my old luck, right?” He was mostly playing, but he knew and probably Seb knew that it was a very real fear of his- that something was going to come and hurt them or hurt Sebastian and it would be his fault whether it be unintentional neglect or just because of who and what he was.

“But, I was thinking I could make us a late lunch before I do that? You’ve been working your ass off all day long and I think I’ve only seen you drink coffee, like lots of coffee, so far- you realize you completely forgot to eat?” Typical of his boyfriend to get wrapped up in his work and forget to take care of himself. “I take the blame, I was too excited to make us sit down for breakfast so shame on me.”

Sebastian’s POV:

It was the happiest that Sebastian had ever been , too. “Just for the record, I’d listen to you say that everyday.” He liked seeing Blaine jubilant and excited over new things. Last year had been rough and scary and it felt like they’d never make it out alive. “You deserve all the good things in life. You’ve been through hell and back. But uh, can we maybe slow down on the party planning? I’m not sure if I’m ready to host Thanksgiving, though I’m sure my mother would love it.”

They stood close for a few moments, Seb enjoyed listening to the other man speak as they gently swayed in the doorway together. If there was ever any doubt on settling on this townhouse, it would be erased by the glow in Blaine’s cheeks and the crinkle of his bourbon colored eyes.

Sebastian’s stomach growled almost as if on cue when Blaine mentioned lunch. He knew that reinforcing the protection spells throughout the house was important but was relieved when he said he’d fix up some food first. He was thankful that his boyfriend paid such close attention to his habits because he was right, Seb would just pour himself another cup and begin perfectly spacing the pictures he wanted to display in the office. “Yes, shame on you for my bad habits. Lunch sounds perfect, though. And I’ll get to see all of your hard work.”

The kitchen looked perfectly Blaine, of course. He had hung some herbs on the walls and organized all of the pots and pans so that they hung from a rack above the Island. The room already smelled like lemons and sage with a little swirl of stale morning coffee. “You really got this place together, it’s great.” He sat down on a stool next to the very island B loved so much and tapped his fingers on the polished countertop. “What’s on the menu, baby?”

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine’s already ridiculous smile grew even more, “I guess I’m just going to have to tell you more often just how happy you’ve made me then, aren’t I?” He rolled his eyes and nodded because of course, Sebastian wouldn’t want the stress of having so many people here. Blaine knew that, but he was just itching to put something together, some sort of get together where they could show how far they’d come and how amazing their new home was. He supposed he’d just have to figure out a way to convince his boyfriend that it would be so much fun. For now, he nodded his agreement.

“I suppose you’re right. We’ve both been through hell and back and maybe we should just wait. But! Your mom is gonna want to come visit soon, you know she’s so excited to see this place. So by time next year I fully expect a grand get together, yeah?” He laughed and tugged on Seb’s tee as he stole another kiss, humming into it thoughtfully before pulling away and leading Sebastian into the kitchen. The look on the other man’s face told him that he’d done a good job, he bit his lip, suddenly a tiny bit sheepish as Seb looked around, Blaine didn’t need the words spoken out loud to know he’d done a good job. He’d worked hard, and he knew it looked good, but their aesthetics were quite different and it made Blaine happy that Seb genuinely seemed to like how cozy he’d made the room. He pushed a glass of iced strawberry lemonade over to Seb for him to sip on while he waited, and got one for himself too.

“Our options are slim, but I’m sure I can come up with something.”

In truth, they didn’t have much food in the house at all yet. Just a few things leftover from the other place and some things Blaine picked up before the move; simple fruits and vegetables and so on. Sure, he could order take out, or walk down the street to the deli, or even magic something better, but Seb was sitting at the bar with an easy smile, looking around the room and admiring Blaine’s work. He wanted to keep the moment between the two of them so he opened the fridge to observe. It wasn’t much, but it would work.

They excited in companionable silence, Seb checking his work emails on his phone and shooting Blaine encouraging just for Blaine smiles as Blaine brought out the deli turkey, cheese, sprouts and spinach leaves,12 grain wheat bread he’d gotten yesterday evening, and sat them on the counter. The condiment choices were slim but dijon mustard was a good go to so he pulled that out too before locating some honey, vinegar and a few spices. He set to work making a vinaigrette dressing for the spinach salad using the honey and spices before putting the sandwiches together, he made two for Seb, just in case. Before serving he sliced up the honeydew melon waiting for them on the counter. He played it all expertly before joining Sebastian on the other side to eat.

“I know it’s not very Autumn, but it works, right? We need to go to the store when we’re done so that I can treat you properly. I have so many ideas for things to make this winter, you have no clue how excited I am.” It wasn’t as if Blaine didn’t cook for Seb at the old place, but there was just so much space now. It made him a little giddy thinking about all he could make. They were quiet for a moment and Blaine took the chance while Seb was busy devouring his lunch.

“So you can say no and I will completely understand because I know you’re a little unsure about having a dinner party with your family just yet, but what if we just host Hunter and Tony over for dinner? You won’t have to do a single thing except be nice to Hunter and, you know, look gorgeous like you always do. I’ll take care of everything, the food, the entertainment, absolutely everything. Just the four of us. We could do it for Christmas!”

He grinned, his teeth on full display, head cocked to the side. He knew that Seb could say no, and if he did he would wait, but Blaine needed to put it out there anyway. He wasn’t sure why he wanted to do this so badly, maybe to show how even though they’d been pushed over they had landed on their feet and were stronger than ever. Or maybe it was to show that he was all in for his very human soulmate. He loved his magic, he loved that his parents had given it to him. But, he’d been exiled, sent to live like a normal human with little glimpses of his old life- the beach cottage, Freya, his raw, powerful magic in general... But Seb was his person and this was his life now and people did normal things like invite their friends to dinners in new houses that they're proud of and he wanted it. He wanted to plan, he wanted to host and entertain. He wanted it all. He reached out and gave Seb’s hand a squeeze, his fingers moving to lightly trace the inside of his palm.

“I’ll definitely make it worth your while.”

Sebastian’s POV:

“This is perfect, B. Thank you.” Sebastian took a big bite of the fresh sandwich and immediately felt better. Even if his boyfriend felt like the meal was simple or didn’t match the season, he somehow knew exactly what Seb needed. He even made him two sandwiches without asking. This small attention to detail might have seemed like nothing to some people but it made his heart flip a little. B just always knew, always did little affectionate things silently, whether it was two sandwiches or leaving water in the coffee pot for him in the morning. Sebastian didn’t need lavish things. He could buy whatever he wanted and had grown up without wanting for anything. What he needed was exactly what Blaine gave him, quiet love and attention to detail.

He wiped the corners of his mouth as Blaine began to speak. Sebastian knew that this topic would come up again. He wasn’t bothered, it made him laugh. Of course Blaine wanted to throw a small get together and be a gracious host. He’d be amazing at it. Seb could already see him planning and putting together little appetizers and place cards.

“We can do that. Why wait for Christmas?” Sebastian playfully and gently elbowed Blaine’s side. “Why not show off all of our hard work to our friends? And, I know. Believe me, my mother has already dropped lots of hints. I just need some time to be emotionally ready for the Smythes to descend upon our home. She knows she’s welcome and of course so are Tony and Hunter. Can’t promise to be that nice to him, though.” Seb winked and leaned in for a kiss.

“That sounds like an offer I can’t refuse.” Goosebumps ran up and down his arms as B’s fingers laced their way over his palm. He looked into the other’s eyes and sighed despite himself.

“We do have an entire three story house to christen.”

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine’s stomach did a little flip over the sound of Seb’s soft little rumbling laugh and felt his face light up even more as the green eyed man spoke, he wasn’t even sure how it was possible to feel any better than he did ten seconds ago, but Seb had managed to do it because, well, of course, he did. Gods, he loved this man more than anything. He let out a little laugh of his own, almost embarrassed over how excited he was about the idea.

“Really, you mean that?” Already ideas were swarming around in his head. Thoughts that went from menus right down to the music he’d pick. He wanted to pull out some paper and start writing down the fluttering thoughts. But, Seb was looking at him some type of way still and he really did have so much more to finish before he could even think about moving on to a dinner party. Still, Seb had said yes and that was good enough for Blaine right now.

“I said Christmas because I’d have so much to plan! But, since it’s a small event, maybe we could try for two weekends from now? I’ll have to call Tony and ask her if the two of them will be around, but yes, the middle of December works for me. I have so many ideas for food… I can’t wait to try some out for you. We can start out with this one small dinner and then in a few months we can invite the rest if you feel up to it. Thank you, Seb.”

He bit his bottom lip after receiving Seb’s kiss and found himself naturally wanting more. Wanting to thank his boyfriend with something other than just words. He could feel Seb’s shift too. Blaine’s fingertips ghosted over Sebastian’s goosebumped skin, and he leaned in and kissed him again, his free hand moving up to cup Seb’s jaw. And this time Blaine deepened the kiss, licking into his mouth with intent. His boyfriend’s lips tasted bittersweet- like the honey and vinegar from the dressing he’d made for them and Blaine sighed into the kisses. He pulled back, albeit reluctantly, and looked up into Seb’s deep seafoam green eyes, his words sending a little jolt through him. He stayed close to Sebastian’s lips, voice low and teasing.

“We do, don’t we? Hmm, I know we’ve got quite a bit left to do before evening, but what do you say to an extended break? I could give you a preview of all the ways we’re going to do just that. I could show you just a bit of what I want to do to you...”

Sebastian’s POV:

Seb got lost in the kissing and leaned forward, almost falling off of the kitchen stool in the process. “I think we deserve a break.” His hand made its way to Blaine’s lap where he firmly gripped his thigh. “But what about what I want to do to you?” He smiled against his boyfriend’s lips and felt the energy between them change, like the temperature drop before a summer storm. “You’ve already done so much, after all.”

He stood up from the stool and walked across the kitchen to the sink. Sebastian leaned back against the cool ledge of the counter and motioned for Blaine to join him. The other man pressed him back and kissed him hard. God, he would love to continue this way but he had a plan. “I want you to sit on the counter, B.” He complied and Sebastian stood in between Blaine’s muscular thighs, his hands cupped his ass as he licked into his mouth. He groaned and fumbled with the waistband of his boyfriend’s sweat pants. The two of them managed to get them down far enough for Sebastian to grip him and stroke him firmly.

Blaine came, his knees pressed into Sebastian’s sides, his white knuckles gripped his shoulders, a moan against the other’s parted lips. The two of them held each other, little puffs of air and gasps, Blaine’s legs wobbly and Sebastian’s smile pressed into his neck. “Well, that’s one room down. Bedroom later.” He gave Blaine a few more kisses, “But first, protection spells.”

After the two of them calmed down and cleaned up the kitchen (and themselves) with a little touch of magic, they set to work. Blaine focused on his craft and strengthening the barrier around their new home, Seb hung up photos and art around his office and the living room.

They ended their night as Blaine had promised. The two of them wound up together on their new bed, a bed that only they would share and make memories in. A bed that Sebastian hadn’t had previous men in, a bed that Blaine hadn’t spent sleepless nights in. The room was thoroughly christened as they moved together in a mess of sheets, Seb’s legs tightly around Blaine.

They fell asleep- sated, happy and naked. Sebastian looked forward to waking up in their new room, the sounds of the river and their bustling neighborhood, and doing the exact same thing over again.
