Butt Dialling
Blaine looked over at his phone. Why was it vibrating so early on a Friday morning. He checked the display and his face lit up. All bad thoughts instantly flew out his head because it was Kurt calling him from New York. Shouldn't he be busy rehearsing for nationals though?
Accepting the call he held the phone to his ear. As he was about to greet his friend he heard his friend and the New directions girl Rachel were in the middle of a conversation. He realised immediately that Kurt must have accidently butt dialled him again. Amused as this had happened twice before and curious he listened in feeling guilty.
Kurt knew it had been his idea and the blame if caught resided with him but he wouldn't have passed up breakfast at Tiffany's with Rachel for anything. As they began to walk back and they both discussed their Broadway dreams the saw the poster advertising Wicked!
"We have to sing on a Broadway stage", smiled Kurt, "That Broadway stage there."
"No Kurt it's closed" Rachel cried, "we'd have to break in."
Grinning at each other they raced into the theatre. Managing to get to halfway to the stage they were stopped by security.
"You can't be here" barked the theatre security guard.
"We are extra's. We were told to get here early for fitting", responded Rachel.
"Let me guess", interrupted the security guard, "you are a big star, with big dreams of singing a song on a real broadway stage?"
"Were we that obvious?" Kurt muttered.
"We'll be going" Rachel added.
"You got 15 minutes"
Squealing with excitement Rachel and Kurt grasped hands running for the stage.
"Ah this is where I belong" Rachel sighed.
"Imagine yourself singing the final number to one of the world's best musicals" said Kurt.
"But there is no orchestra-"
"Make one in your mind"

Correct
Rachel began singing:
I'm limited
Just look at me
I'm limited
And just look at you you can do all I couldn't do
Kurt joined in:
So now it's up to you
For both of us
Now it's up to you
Letting the awe of the stage wash over them they continued until they reached the end where they both sang together.
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better
Rachel singing her last solo line, letting lose a single tear that rolled down her cheek:
And because I knew you...
Kurt began his last solo line in a similar state:
Because I knew you...
(Both):
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good...
"That was awesome", sniffed Rachel, "You have to come back here with me when we both graduate. This is where we belong."
"I don't know Rachel, I agree this is where I would love to be but Ohio is home. It's where dad is and Carole, and Finn and..."
"You were about to say Blaine, weren't you?", Rachel teased. "You like him, don't you? Why won't you admit it?"
"Yeah I was. And so what if I like him... or even love him. Nothing can come of it. He is happy with us being just friends and I don't think he likes me in that way", sighs Kurt.
"We have a whole year to figure it out, cheer up. We need to get back to the hotel before Mr. Schu."
Blaine ended the call. Now he didn't feel guilty at all. He had thought Kurt was over him after the whole mess he made on Valentine's day. Poor adorable Kurt had laid his feelings out to him and he had suggested they continue as just friends.
Know he knew Kurt still liked him. Hell Kurt was in love with him! Blaine knew he had feelings for Kurt, he had realised this since Valentine's day and tried to fix them but froze up and chickened out.
He needed some advice about what to do. Walking out of his dorm room along the corridor to David's he knocked. "David?" Before waiting for an answer he pushed the door open and walked in.
"Uggghh... Blaine man, not cool. You know what time it is?"
"Look David I know it's early but I need some advice urgently", Blaine babbled. "Say you found out that someone liked you, like a lot and they didn't know you knew. What would you do about it? You know if you had feelings for them that they didn't know about."
Waking up a bit David sat up, "I guess I would go and tell them how I felt and admit that I already knew how they felt and explain how I knew. But i don't think you can do that right now because it isn't a conversation you can have over the phone and Kurt is in New York."
"I know I can't tell him over the phone." Blaine paused realising just what he said. "Who said this was about Kurt anyways?" blushed Blaine.
David smirked "I think you just did; besides all the Warblers have known for a while. Only Kurt and you have been too oblivious to each other."
Blaine blushed further, biting his lip and he listened. Straightening up as if he received a shock a gleam came into his eye. "David, I am going to New York. I have to see him and talk to him"
As Blaine went to leave David called him back. "Whoa, whoa Blaine hold on. You can't just go off to New York."
"I have that money my parents gave me for my last birthday. I can use that to buy the tickets."
Looking at his friend David saw he wouldn't be able to change his mind, "Right, well if you are serious you better go book those tickets."
"Oh and Blaine next time you might want to get dressed first" teased his friend. "I know you might be hot stuff to the gay guy but you topless doesn't do anything for me."
Blaine left blushing again. Racing back to his room he grabbed his phone and booked the tickets one to get him to New York and two to get him back the same day as the New Directions. If all went well hopefully he would have a boyfriend and they could enjoy the flight back together.
The confirmation email for the flight booking told him the flight left tomorrow morning at 6am. He would have time to get there and watch the performances.
Picking up his phone he quickly text David.
Flight leaves 6am tomorrow. Give us a lift? Blaine
Stressed out he got ready for the school day ahead. As he came back out the bathroom he saw David's reply.
Sure. But you have to put up with Wes, Nick and Jeff.
He was not surprised in the least. Of course David had let his other friends in on it. Today was going to be a long day with them all mocking him for his sudden realisation of feelings for Kurt but at least tomorrow he would be away from it and seeing Kurt. As he thought this he found himself smiling and headed down to breakfast.
