Yes I'm back already! I know it's not long since I finished 'Without You.' But I've been working on this ever since I posted the final chapter, and I've really gotten into writing it. My next story was going to be a St Berry story, as I already had something planned out for them again, but I decided to leave them alone for a while, and try my hand at writing something different. That's how I came up with this, a lovely piece of Raine for me to sink my teeth into.

This story is kind of AU because Glee hasn't happened in this story, the story focuses mainly on Kurt, Blaine and Rachel, but the other Glee characters will appear at various points. This is the first time that I've ever written anything like this, so I'm grateful for all feedback that you'd be willing to share. I love reading reviews, so if you could, please let me know what you're feeling about this story. I'm hoping that I'll be able update regularly, more regularly that I did for 'Without You' anyway, although if you read that, then you'd know that even if the updates aren't very regular, I still make it a mission of mine to finish the story. So you can count on that at least.

Anyway, that's enough rambling from me, all that's left for me to say really is that I don't own Glee and that all events are fictional, I do however own the plot :)

Enjoy.


Blaine knew that it was a big step when Kurt had asked him to move in. They'd known each other for a long time, but now that they were together – it was a different matter.

Blaine remembered the first time that they'd met, Kurt was playing dress up alone in the corner of the room, and Blaine had come and joined in with no objections from Kurt. They'd been best friends ever since. When Blaine realised that he was gay and began taking an interest in boys properly, going out on dates, it never even occurred to her that Kurt could be someone that he could take an interest in. He was just Kurt. After fourteen years of being practically glued to each other, they each encountered comments of them making a cute couple. Both had screwed up their faces at the idea of being a couple whenever someone mentioned it. Neither of them had realised what was happening to them until that one day that…well…it just happened.

Both were in Kurt's room, and Blaine was teaching Kurt how to play the guitar. Kurt stole Blaine's guitar pick, and they were both laughing as Blaine pinned him down on the bed underneath him. As they joked around, their eyes met and the laughing stopped. It was as if for the first time in fourteen years they were seeing each other for the first time. Blaine saw his intense blue eyes staring up at him, and could feel his body beneath him as he breathed in and out. Blaine could feel his begin to beat faster as he leant in and kissed him.

And that was how it all began.

They'd been a couple for about five months when Kurt asked Blaine to move in with him. He shared an apartment with friend Rachel, but Blaine didn't see that as an issue. He didn't even hesitate when Kurt asked him. He knew that it would be brilliant being able to spend time with each other, more than they already did. Kurt was a fashion intern at one of New York's newest boutiques, and Blaine was year into studying music at NYU. Blaine's roommates seemed more than happy to hear that he was moving out. They claimed that they saw nothing of him anyway.

"How did you fit all of this stuff into your room?" Kurt asked, "It's tiny!"

"I guess I packed it in there pretty well," Blaine replied.

"Apparently so, but three boxes and two suitcases?" Kurt laughed as Blaine placed the last suitcase into the trunk of the car, "I don't know if you're aware, but my apartment is incredibly small,"

"I'm sure we'll find some space somewhere,"

After a few attempts, Blaine slammed the trunk shut and the two of them walked hand in hand back to the apartment block so that Blaine could say goodbye to his roommates. After a few tears, the pair were finally ready to leave. This was a huge step in Blaine's life – and he was looking forward to what the future held.

It only took them ten minutes to get to Kurt's apartment and in no time at all they were unpacking everything that they had put into the car only fifteen minutes ago. They didn't bother to empty the boxes or suitcases, they both too worn out and excited to do anything else. Both collapsed into the sofa, with Blaine's arm securely wrapped around Kurt. Seconds later, Rachel walked through the door.

"Well you were conveniently not here when we were lugging the suitcases in here," Kurt laughed, Rachel giggled and sat down on the chair opposite them.

"Sorry, I tried to get away from rehearsal earlier, but we've got a show coming up and…" Kurt laughed and shook his head.

"It's fine Rachel, I was kidding." Rachel smiled and glanced at Blaine who was watching his boyfriend and now new roommate interact.

"I feel terrible, I really wanted to be here for when you got back, I wanted to welcome Blaine to our home properly," Rachel argued, and Blaine couldn't help smiling.

"It's cool Rachel," Rachel bit her lip as the three of them eased into a comfortable silence, before jumping up ad squealing loudly.

"I'll be right back!" she announced before running into the kitchen, Blaine waited until the clicking of her heels had disappeared before sitting up and turning to face Kurt.

"Is she always like that?" he asked, to which Kurt just laughed and nodded.

"Rachel's lovely, really she is, you just have to get to know her first." He smiled, "I found her to be completely overbearing when we first met," Blaine nodded and settled back down as Rachel came running back into the living with what appeared to be a large bottle of very expensive champagne. Kurt sat up straight in his seat causing Blaine to move to, he glanced at Kurt before looking at a beaming Rachel.

"Wow," was all Blaine could say,

"My dad's gave it to me when I moved out here, they told me to save it for a special occasion, I thought about saving it for opening night, but I thought Blaine moving in is equally as special," she explained, Kurt rushed off into the kitchen to find some glasses leaving Blaine and Rachel alone. Blaine gave her a shy smile as Rachel returned to her seat in front of him.

"Thank you Rachel, but you really don't have to, your opening night is pretty big thing," Rachel shrugged and placed the bottle on the table next to her.

"It's no big deal really, my dad's are coming down for my opening night, and we'll celebrate then." She smiled and Blaine nodded, "I'm just really happy for you guys, I know that Kurt has been looking forward to you moving in here for some time."

"Well it's a big step," Blain agreed.

"Of course it is," Rachel nodded, "And I just wanted to let you know that I'll be at rehearsals a lot of the time anyway, so you and Kurt will pretty much have the place to yourselves, without having to worry about me getting in the way."

"Rachel this is your home as much as it is ours," Kurt announced as he walked back into the living room, Blaine grinned at his boyfriend and Rachel just blushed.

"I was just saying…"

"We've been over this time and time again Rachel, Blaine moving in isn't going to change anything between the three of us," Kurt sighed, before glancing at Blaine, "She's been worrying about getting in the way ever since I asked you move in." Rachel blushed as Blaine turned to smile at her once more; she sensed that it was time to change the subject.

"Bring those glasses over here Kurt," she grinned, he placed them on the table before sitting down next to Blaine once more. Rachel began to open the bottle, first unwrapping the seal, and then slowly edging the cork out of the top of the bottle. Suddenly the cork flew into the air, causing Blaine and Kurt to cheer, before bouncing off the light and landing in between Blaine and Kurt. Rachel bit her lip and tried to stifle a smile.

"Oops." She giggled, before pouring them all an equal glass, and placing the bottle back onto the table.

"Cheers," she grinned.

"Cheers,"

"Cheers," Blaine grinned, "To new roommates,"
