Kurt smiled at his step-brother. Sure his lack of fashion sense bothered him, but he missed him too much to yell at him.
"Call Backs is amazing," Kurt gushed. He heard a knock on the door.
"I'll get it," Kurt walked over to the door, hearing Finn and Rachel get reacquainted. When he opened the door, he was greeted with a face full of red roses. Then the roses moved to reveal the most gorgeous face Kurt had ever seen.
"Blaine!" Kurt pulled Blaine into a kiss that was immediately interrupted by Rachel.
"Blaine, it's so good to see you again," Rachel smiled, hugging him.
"It's good to see you too, Rachel. Oh hey, Finn," Blaine said surprised, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm not really sure," Finn clapped hands with Blaine.
"I'm so excited. We're all here together," Rachel smiled, happily. Kurt wrapped an arm around Blaine and took the curly-haired boy's bag.
"Let me just get Blaine settled in a bit, and then we can go," Kurt guided Blaine through the apartment, showing him everything. Once Kurt had set Blaine's bag down in his 'room', Blaine flung his arms around Kurt.
"I missed you so much," Blaine mumbled into Kurt's shoulder.
"I missed you, too," Kurt hugged the boy back. When they pulled apart, Blaine had a few tears in his eyes, shocking Kurt.
"Sweetie, what's wrong?" Kurt wiped an escaped tear off his boyfriend's face.
"It's just a lot harder to live without you than I thought it would be," Blaine said, trying to keep from turning into a blubbering mess.
"You are not without me," Blaine tried to look at the floor at this, but Kurt pulled his chin up, "Listen. Sure there is some distance between us for now, but that's just until you graduate. I know I haven't been keeping up with our phone and Skype dates, but I promise you I will make up for that. I've just been busy with my new intern, but once I get the hang of everything there, it will get better. I promise."
Blaine hugged Kurt again, and took a moment to compose himself before allowing Kurt to guide him back out of the small closed off corner he referred to as his room.
"You guys ready to go?" asked Rachel in her usual chipper tone.
"Yep!" Kurt clapped excitedly.
"Where are we going?" Blaine asked as he followed Rachel, Kurt, and Finn out of the apartment.
"To an amazing karaoke bar called Call Backs," Kurt stated, excitedly. The group was walking to Call Backs seeing as it wasn't too far away. Kurt and Blaine were chatting and updating each other on their lives. Suddenly, Kurt just couldn't take it anymore. He was so excited Blaine as here with him in New York, he threw his arms around him and kissed him.
When they pulled apart Finn was smirking at them as Kurt grabbed Blaine's hand as they walked. Once Blaine had come out of the shock of Kurt kissing him, he looked around nervously. They had an agreement about kissing or even holding hands in public, especially at night. Kurt, noticing Blaine's nervous expression, smiled and squeezed his hand.
"Don't worry, Blaine. We aren't in Lima right now. We're in New York. I've seen so many couples just like us. Life here is going to be so great after you graduate," Kurt said excitedly. Blaine let himself relax and smiled, seeing Kurt so happy and excited.
Once they made it to Call Backs, they immediately took a table near the stage Brody quickly joined them, and Kurt could see the look of disappointment on Finn's face. Blaine grabbed Kurt's hand under the table as they ordered drinks. Kurt watched Finn's face while Rachel and Brody sang together. Finn looked sad and lost. Kurt began to notice a difference in Blaine.
Blaine was sitting closer to Kurt than normal, and he had a death grip on Kurt's hand. Kurt kissed Blaine's cheek and was rewarded with a smile. Kurt could see the pure love shining in Blaine's eyes. Kurt hadn't realized how hard Blaine was taking the distance between them. Listening to the closing notes of Demi Lovato's song "Give Your Heart a Break", he got an idea.
"I want to sing a song," Kurt announced.
"Sure. Just go talk to Pascell," Brody stated, sitting unnecessarily close to Rachel. Kurt winked at Blaine as he went up to the stage. Telling Pascell his song choice, he got up to the microphone.
"I haven't been able to see or talk to the love of my life very much since I moved here, but even though there is a great distance between us, our love is as strong as ever. Blaine, this song is for you.
The space in between us
Starts to feel like the worlds apart
Like I'm going crazy
And you say it's raining in your heart
You're telling me nobody's there
To try and fly
Oh but that's just crazy
'Cause baby I told ya I'm here for good
My love's like a star, yeah
You can't always see me
But you know that I'm always there
When you see one shining
Take it as mine
And remember I'm always near
If you see a comet
Baby I'm on it
Making my way back home
Just follow the glow yeah
It won't be long
Just know that you're not alone
I tried to build the walls
To keep you safe when I'm not around
But as soon as I'm away from you
You say they come tumbling down
But it's not about the time
That we don't get to spend together
It's about how strong our love is
When I'm gone and it feels like forever
Blaine sat and watched Kurt sing. He had tears running down his face and he couldn't believe how lucky he was to have this wonderful man as his boyfriend.
My love's like a star yeah
You can't always see me
But you know that I'm always there
When you see one shining
Take it as mine
And remember I'm always near
If you see a comet
Baby I'm on it
Making my way back home
Just follow the glow yeah
It won't be long
Just know that you're not alone
You say that time away makes your heart grow out
But I can stay just to prove you wrong
Oh look at how far we've come
Don't you know
Don't know that you're the one
My love's like a star yeah
You can't always see me
But you know that I'm always there
When you see one shining
Take it as mine
And remember I'm always near
If you see a comet
Baby I'm on it
Making my way back home
Just follow the glow, yeah
It won't be long
Just know that you're not alone
Kurt put the microphone on the stand and ran to Blaine. Blaine stood and threw his arms around Kurt. Kurt could hear the several "awww's" around the room. That was what he loved about New York. He couldn't wait to spend the rest of his life here with the beautiful boy in his arms.
"I love you," they said this at the same time, and they knew everything would be okay.
