Truth:
AN: So this is an idea that I had a while ago and I decided to post it. Basically, everything up to Never Been Kissed has happened except this story starts the day Kurt went to spy at Dalton, so the Karofsky kiss never happened. I think it will make sense once you read it but feel free to ask questions if you have them.
Enjoy :)
Tell me:
"Who is the guy Blaine?" Rachel asked, noticing blissed out look on her twin brother's face when he got home from that stuffy private school their dads sent him to. Of course she understood completely why Blaine went there, after the Sadie Hawkins incident he wasn't safe in public school. It was just a little unfair that he went to private school and she was stuck at McKinley, at least at McKinley she could be the star she was.
"I have no idea what you are talking about." Blaine replied, fidgeting with the red and blue stripped tie around his neck and grabbing an apple from the bowl of fruit sitting on the counter. He draped his messenger bag over the chair and sat down.
Rachel just rolled her eyes. "Really Blaine, you're my brother, I know that look you have, so spill, who is he?"
Blaine sighed and almost regretted coming home for the weekend and not staying at Dalton. Knowing Rachel there was no way to get around her question, or deny it. Rachel and Blaine were really close since they were twins. Plus as scary as it was to admit, if there was anyone who knew him better than himself it was her.
"Fine...there was this boy who came to spy on the Warblers today. He stopped me on the stairs and then….I may have serenaded him with 'Teenage dream'". Blaine sputtered the last part, trying not to blush as he thought about the look of shock on the boy's face when Blaine began to sing.
Rachel's jaw dropped, as she stood in the middle of the kitchen slightly flabbergasted, "You didn't? Is he cute? Where was he from? What-?" Rachel was cut off as the doorbell rang.
Blaine quickly stood up, setting his uneaten apple on the table. He was thankful for the interruption and went to answer the door, anything to keep him away from Rachel and her persistent questions. Rachel huffed in annoyance and followed him a couple seconds later once Blaine didn't return.
Blaine opened the door to see the same boy from earlier in the day standing in front of him. "Kurt?"
Kurt mirrored Blaine's look of confusion. "Blaine? What are you doing here?"
Blaine laughed at Kurt's question, "Um, I live here. I should ask you the same thing."
Rachel walked to the front door. "Kurt? You're early."
"Hello to you too Rachel" Kurt snapped back with his usual sass. "And what do you mean you live here?" Kurt asked Blaine ignoring Rachel.
Blaine was about to respond before Rachel cut him off. "Wait, do you guys know each other?"
Kurt wasn't sure what to say and Blaine noticed the blank look on his face so he spoke first. "Yeah…um…Kurt was the guy that I was telling you about….the one who was spying at Dalton today." Blaine turned towards Rachel and hoped that Kurt couldn't see the blush rising on his cheeks.
"Wait, that was Kurt?" Rachel squealed in excitement. As soon as Blaine had started to talk about the boy it was obvious he like him. She didn't have to be Blaine's twin to know that, and it just so happened that Kurt was her best friend, this was perfect.
"Um, yeah." Blaine admitted, seeing the look in Rachel's eyes that she had figured out that he liked this Kurt more than he probably should. He placed his hand on his neck, a nervous habit he had since he was little.
"Okay, but I still don't understand how you live here Blaine." Kurt said, still confused.
Blaine and Rachel looked at each other at the same time. Rachel spoke first knowing that she had some explaining to do.
"This is obvious unnecessary as you two have already met, but Blaine, meet Kurt, my best friend. Kurt meet Blaine…my brother."
Kurt's jaw dropped, "First, you never told me that you have a brother, and second why do you have different last names and third you two are related?"
"You didn't tell him you had a brother?" Blaine asked turning to Rachel. Rachel looked between them and grabbed both their hands and towed them into the kitchen in the most dramatic fashion she could manage, and made them sit so she could stand in front of them.
"Okay, Kurt, first of all. I'm sorry I didn't tell you I had a brother. Truthfully Blaine has never been here when you have been over and I'm sorry for not telling you. We have different last names because our dads wanted us each to have one of their names and Blaine Berry just sounds horrible." Rachel scoffed and Blaine nodded, muttering "you got that right" under his breath before Rachel continued. "Blaine, I'm not embarrassed or anything by you. It's just if I told the New Directions that my brother was the lead singer of the Warblers, our competitions wouldn't have gone so well."
Kurt spoke first. "Thank you for your explanation Rachel, and while I wish you would have told me I understand. Although I still can't believe that you are siblings!"
"Yeah, sometimes I can't either!" Blaine said, laughing with Kurt as Rachel glared at them. Kurt looked at Blaine, their eyes connecting and both boys blushed.
"Alright, seeing as I invited Kurt here for a sleepover, I'm going to steal him now. Blaine…go listen to Katy Perry or something." Rachel grabbed Kurt's hand again and pulled him up.
Kurt looked at Blaine, catching his gaze and giving the Warbler a small smile before Rachel pulled him out of the kitchen. Blaine sighed, dropping his head into his hands, a smile spreading on his face.
"Something wrong bud?" Hiram Berry asked, walking into the kitchen and placing a hand on Blaine's shoulder.
"No, quite the opposite actually" Blaine told his dad.
"Care to explain?" Hiram asked, sitting down across from Blaine.
Blaine lifted his head from his hands, a big smile spread across his face. "Let's just say that I met this amazing boy today, who was spying on the Warblers. I then sang 'teenage dream' and may have flirted. And now, this boy is upstairs with Rachel, because apparently they are best friends."
Hiram nodded, smiling at the love struck expression on his son's face. "What is his name?"
"Kurt" Blaine replied, "Why?"
"Rachel has had him over before; he is a really great kid. And it's really obvious that you like him."
Blaine blushed, "I really do, after the performance we talked for hours before he had to leave."
"Well I was going to order some pizza for dinner. Why don't you go ask Rachel and Kurt what they would like?" Hiram suggested with a wink.
Blaine nodded, knowing that his dad was giving him an excuse to go see Kurt, without being too obvious.
Blaine paused outside the door, and opened it. He knew that Rachel and Kurt had been talking about him because Rachel stopped midsentence and Kurt blushed. God Blaine loved it when he blushed.
"Sorry to interrupt, but dad wanted to know what kind of pizza to order." Blaine explained, trying his best to not stare at Kurt.
Kurt looked over to Rachel, "I'm fine with anything, Rach?"
"Um, well anything that is vegan, I don't care." Rachel replied shortly, clearly annoyed that Blaine interrupted her with his entrance.
Blaine nodded and stood in the doorway, not wanting to leave Kurt's presence. Rachel noticed that they were both looking at each other, and coughed, both boys whipping their heads to look at her. "Um, Blaine, are you going to stand there, or go tell dad?"
"Sorry, I'll just be leaving." Blaine stumbled over his words and shut the door running back downstairs.
All through dinner Blaine and Kurt kept staring at each other, and then blushing and looking away when the other caught them. Hiram and Leroy just smiled to each other, knowing very well what was going on. As soon as they finished eating Rachel grabbed Kurt and towed him back upstairs, leaving Blaine sitting with his dads.
"Blaine, you have some explaining to do." Leroy said looking straight at his son.
Blaine looked confused, "about what?"
Leroy just rolled his eyes; Blaine had a thing for being oblivious. "Why you kept staring at Kurt the whole dinner, and looking like a lovesick puppy."
"Oh, yeah." Blaine then proceeded to explain everything to his other dad, about meeting Kurt at Dalton and then finding out that he was Rachel's best friend.
"Okay, you are obviously smitten with Kurt and he likes you too. So why don't you ask him out. Better yet….go tell Rachel to come down here, I need to ask her something." Leroy said with a glint in his eye.
Blaine caught on and knew that there really wasn't a question for Rachel; it was just the only way to get her to leave Kurt. Blaine knew that his dads were excited that he had found a boy he liked. After the event that landed Blaine at Dalton he had been much more nervous about showing his feelings when he liked someone.
"Ok" Blaine said and raced up the stairs. He once again opened Rachel's door without knocking.
"Blaine! Knock before you just barge in here!" Rachel almost screamed.
"Sorry, but Papa needs to ask you something...he insists." Blaine added the last part knowing that Rachel would complain, and she did.
"Ugh, fine." She said, sliding off her bed and walking out the door. Blaine moved to take her spot on the bed next to Kurt.
"Hey" Blaine said with a smile.
"Hi" Kurt smiled back.
"So, I was wondering if you wanted to get coffee with me tomorrow. I really enjoyed talking with you today." Blaine asked, trying not to blush but it was inevitable.
"I'd love to!" Kurt replied practically beaming. "Here is my number, text me the time and place." Kurt and Blaine exchanged numbers before Rachel stormed back into the room.
Blaine and Kurt moved farther apart, both unaware that they had moved until their sides were touching.
"Blaine" Rachel said glaring at him.
"Right, I'll just be going, see you later Kurt, have fun and don't let Rachel drive you too crazy."
Rachel hit his arm as he walked out and he just brushed it off, too happy that Kurt said yes to really care.
Blaine only saw Kurt a few more times that night and it was never enough to actually say more than a few words before Rachel cut one of them off or dragged Kurt away again. But Blaine couldn't be too angry because tomorrow it would be just him and Kurt.
Thoughts? :)
