Wedding Bells

Chapter One

Santana and Britt's wedding planning left Kurt thinking of the past a little too much. Only a few short months ago he had almost married the love of his life before Blaine had gone all chokehold stalkery on him. The guy had moved into everything! His flat, his life, his band, scared off Kurt's friends. Leaving him completely alone in the world. Kurt had loved the band, but Blaine had complained about every single rehearsal. Yet when Blaine had left to work on his showcases that just HAD to be okay!

The split had been rough on them both. All Kurt had meant to ask for, was a little time to think. Just some breathing room, but no! Blaine had to go all crazy train on his ass shouting that he would never forgive Kurt for this. Weeks passed and Kurt missed him, stupidly perhaps, but still he went back to Lima to see if things could be fixed. Only to find out that Blaine had completely moved on, and bar a few stolen kisses tearing Kurt's heart open more Blaine seemed to care nothing of them anymore. Kurt tried to pretend he was okay with it all, that he wasn't in love still. Even he knew that it was a complete lie. It would be a very long time before he got over it all.

Sat here arranging a big bold gay wedding made him long for what he had nearly had. Perhaps not for Blaine again (which was a good start to the healing), but he did wish he had a wedding of his own to plan again. He sighed fixing the decorations one last time. He liked Walter, but everyone knew it would never work out with someone so much older then him. In a way Kurt thought maybe he was looking for a father figure as Burt had been so absent since Finn's death. Someone to love and guide him through all this crazy.

He just felt so lost, lonely, afraid all the time. Walter just made it all seem just that little bit better. Cuddles watching movies, someone to talk to, no sex, but he also didn't feel pressured to. It just was a really comfortable gay friendship, which is what Kurt really needed right now. Not to be pressured back into another full on heavy relationship. It was nice that Walter understood that. They had also decided that Kurt would go the wedding alone, so nothing felt too serious yet.

Which was why Kurt stood there fiddling with flowers waiting for the girls to get ready. All the bridesmaids were helping the brides get ready, all the boys crowding around Blaine making him feel more alone then ever. Until a hand on his shoulder made Kurt Hummel jump. "Think I would let you do this all alone?" a familiar voice asked.

Kurt squealed and turned hugging his friend. "Starchild! What are you doing here?" Taking in his friend's rather glitter covered version of a suit.

"A huge gay wedding so soon to yours ending?" Elliott shrugged, "Thought you might need a little moral support. And I knew the hobbit might cause you grief. Didn't want to leave you alone at Blaine's mercy after everything."

"Thank you so much, I am so very happy you are here. I wanted to ask you, but it felt datey and weird. I didn't know if you would think I was hitting on you or something." Kurt gushed nervously.

Elliott smiled, "Relax Kurt, it's not a date. Just friends on a night out together."

He smiled, linking his arm around his friend cuddled against his chest. "Feel so good when you are here."

"Plus I wouldn't mind if you hit on me." He said very quietly. So quietly Kurt wasn't even sure if he had heard right. He almost asked, but he was cut off as Starchild carried on. "Hobbit doesn't seem happy I am here."

Kurt turned to see Blaine glaring at them both. "I don't care what he thinks, we are over! He found someone else fast enough. I love him, I think maybe I always will, but I can't ever be with him again. I respect myself far too much to go back to his abuse."

Elliott stroked his back, "I'm proud of you, its really hard to escape a choke hold relationship." He kissed Kurt's cheek, interrupted by his phone ringing. "Excuse me, its my little sister."

Soon as he was gone Blaine came over silently to Hummel's side, grabbing his arm where no one could see digging his nails in hard bruising Kurt's arm. "What the fuck is he doing here? I told you no more fucking Starchild or else!" He growled in Kurt's ear.

"He is my friend and he came for me. Its nothing to do with you, we are over." Kurt defended himself.

"No, we are over when I say we are. Get rid of him if you want to wake up tomorrow without being in ICU. And anymore weird kisses and I will beat him too." He warned.

Elliott came back just as Blaine was leaving, "Everything okay?"

Kurt painted a smile on his face, "Yeah fine."

Elliott studied his face, "You sure?"

Kurt smiled weakly, "Maybe we should just leave. I don't think a wedding is really my thing."

Starchild refused, "No I am not letting Blaine pressure you out of seeing your friends. We stay and I take care of you. Promise."

"I hope." Kurt said softly.
