Summary: When Blaine Anderson gets a fresh start at McKinley High in 1997 thanks to his best friend Rachel Berry, her parents, Emma Pillsbury, and the group of misfits that would become the New Directions, the last thing he expects to gain from playing it straight and dating Quinn Fabray is a daughter at the age of sixteen. Fast forward to present day, where Blaine is raising Sugar as a single dad in the same sleepy town of Lima he grew up in. When Sugar is recruited at the beginning of her sophomore year by Will Schuester to join New Directions and falls deeply in love at first sight with one of the co-captains, Blaine isn’t sure what to think, especially since Kurt Hummel is quite out of her league, being three and a half years older and, well, gay.
Little did he realize how much Kurt would end up turning Blaine’s own life upside down in the year ahead - a story of Blaine’s struggles to find his true self as his daughter grows up herself and his personal journey to realize age is just a number.
Notes: Inspired by
this lovely prompt on the GKM and I am so, so sorry about how long it took to fill this - this took over my life since I started working on it almost five months ago. On that note, it took a village to raise this story. Thanks to
ccmskatechick and
colfer who put up with my daily pinging and hair pulling about it since its most early conception and who helped shape it into what it is today. Thanks to
wordplay for forcing me to think when my brain was fried and making me better and making this story better as a result. Thanks to
djgulia and
aelora for also catching errors as it made the rounds, and especially to
aelora for running the Blaine Big Bang with me over at
beyond_dapper and bending over backwards to make sure I had an artist when I was the only one left out (again). Thanks to
artsnletters for being my knight in shining armor (again!) and providing me with the most GORGEOUS artwork to accompany this fic, which is linked down below and embedded in the end as it does depict the final scene. Thanks to everyone who put up with my bitching on tumblr. Thanks to you for reading 54k of a trope that’s now been beaten to death. :)
Since this was originally written for the GKM, it gets racy in the second half and heed the individual warnings on each part.
