A/N: So I was listening to 'Looks Like Sex' by Mike Posner, and for some reason this story popped into my head. Maybe it's the heat. I'm trying to get to my other stories, I truly am, just bear with me, for some reason my author's block is like extra serious lately. :( I hope you enjoy.
I do not own Glee.
I do not own any songs mentioned or quoted.
Prologue (New Directions)
Kut's House - Lima, Ohio (June 5, 6:15am)
"Come on Kurt we're gonna be late!" Finn shouted from the bottom of the staircase. Mercedes, and Rachel were both waiting down by the stair rail. If they didn't make it out within the next ten minutes, they'd miss the entire pull out group. For some odd unapparent reason the New Directions thought it would be a good idea to take a road trip this year. Of all years. And so early into the summer. Didn't people understand you're supposed to sleep the first week of summer to prepare you for working, or for all the fun you're supposed to have LATER in the summer. But no such luck came in Kurt Hummel's case. Hearing his brother's booming voice caused him to wake up and move. The group was meeting up at 7:30, he had time.
Rolling out of bed, Kurt went to the bathroom and began his moisture routine, he was willing to shorten it to 30 minutes today. Finishing, he took a shower, changed, and packed a bag. They'd be gone a whole two weeks. Most of his items he packed the night before, underwear, swim trunks, hats, even a few bottles of his moisturizer. the hard challenge came to his shoes, and his clothes. They'd be going out that night, if they switched drivers like they planned too. So he had to look his best, it was New York for that matter.
"Kurt, it's only a week sweetie, we're going shopping, still! Where are you going to put all these things." Mercedes came in to check on his progress.
"Cedes, there's no such thing as too many clothes. Ever. That was the first thing I taught you if anything." he said sternly. At 7:10, he was finally ready to go.
"See Finn, I didn't take THAT long." He came down the staircase with his three bags. One for shoes, one for clothes, one for moisturizer, not to mention his messenger bag.
"You kids got everything?" a sleepy Burt came into the living room asking.
"Yea dad, just gotta load up the car."
"Alright" he said through a yawn, "drink some coffee before you hit the road. It's gonna be important to have all your energy or as much as you can muster. Call if anything goes wrong, I'll be there in a heartbeat. Kurt go into my car and get the- the - the uh..."
"EZ Pass?"
"Yea that," he took his father's keys and his bags to load up his car.
"Watch out for him. NEw York is his dream, make sure he comes back home, with his head in the normal range." He chuckled a patted his hand on his shoulder. HE laughed, and gave him a hug.
"See ya, dad." Kurt shouted, coming to give his dad a hug.
"Bye kiddo, love ya."
"Love ya too old guy." with a kiss on his cheek he turned around grabbed his keys and headed to the navigator. Once out of sight, Burt locked the door and went back inside. He still had a full day of work starting at 12, may as well get some sleep in before. He crawled back into bed, next to his wife Carol, placing a gentle kiss on her cheek and an arm around her center; he drifted off to a peaceful sleep.
"Alright. We got Puck, Quinn, Tina and Mike in Car 1. In Car 2 we've got Finn, Rachel, Mercedes, Sam, and Kurt. In car 3, it's me Brit and Artie, and all our excessively heavy shit. Did I miss anyone or anything important?" Santana shouted at the group of teenagers. They were all pretty much awake, some nursing coffee's , or smoothies to wake them up. Taking the silence as nothing wrong, she continued.
"Alright, then let's get on the road. Each car has two drivers. When you're ready to swap call someone so we can all pull over. We should get there by night, and I know where the hotel is from there. See ya in 8-10 hours you guys!" Santana shouted again grabbing Brit's hand and running into her car. They were all following Kurt's truck since he seemed to be one of the more sensible.
That and he had a GPS.
Car 1
"Okay guys, what game are we playing before I get bored out of my mind." Puck said behind the wheel, they pulled out from McKinely 30 minutes ago, sure the music was a distraction, but it was only so much fun.
"Hm, um, Truth or Dare?" Tina suggested from her position, legs draped across the seat leaning on Mike.
"Sounds chill to me," Quinn said sipping her iced coffee, her hair was pulled back into a loose pony tail.
"So who's starting?" Puck asked.
Car 2
"Kurt if we listen to defying Gravity one more time, I'm going to vomit." Sam shouted from his seat next to him. Somehow despite their awkward beginning, they had become really good friends, even so much as to have shotgun.
"But it's a classic" he defended himself.
"Sorry I have to agree Kurt." even Mercedes agreed, all but Rachel. She would have his back.
"Alright, Alright, look and see what else you can find on here, or plug in your own shit." Kurt said mumbling the last part.
"We didn't mean to hurt your feelings Kurtie," Mercedes placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. Through the speakers, "Looks Like Sex" started blasting through the car.
"Kurt E. Hummel! I'm shocked." Rachel feigned shock.
"Oh shut it, it's just a good song." he retorted gripping his hand on the wheel preparing to take an exit.
Car 3
"You know this is the first time, I've ever been to the beach." Said Brit in thought, she was playing with her straw in her iced coffee.
"Really, you're gonna have an awesome time." said Artie, he was seated in the second row munching on potato chips.
"Yea, will I see any more dolphins like Kurt?" she asked quizzically.
"Maybe, it is New York. Dreams come true, people break." Santana said taking her gaze on Brit for a few moments. Somehow the grace of all Good gave her a blessing. She was mean , cold conniving, and yet this lovely woman was her's to call her own.
"Oh," she said looking down taking her sip. The car ride in car 3 was mostly silent. Artie fell asleep around hour two. Brit and Santana had laced pinkies as she drove the trip.
Car 1
"Do I have to?" asked Mike, the truth or dare game was still going strong. Four people, the possibilities are endless.
"yes, or the purple purple take your pick."
"Fine," he pulled out his phone and began texting Kurt's number.
Car 2
"Cedes' can your get that." eyes still on the road. They were three hours in to the trip and he assumed they were getting ready to switch soon. He didn't mind driving, you get used to it after the second hour, just a nice stretch or so would be good.
"Hello?" Mercedes answered the phone.
"Hey Mercedes tell Kurt to pull over at the next station I have to pee."
"really tmi Mike, tmi." she hung up the phone placing it back in his bag.
"What did he want?"
"Get ready to pull over, Mike has to go to the bathroom."
"Yea, now that I think about it, I think I do too." Finn said after some moments of silence.
Pulling over into the next station was easy. The guys unloaded Artie and helped him get to the bathroom, and all the girls went in a group, same with all the guys. Meeting up in the parking lot was when it happened.
"Now or never Mike." Quinn whispered in his ear.
"Kurt, I love you." and Mike kissed him square on the cheek before grabbing his hand and holding it over his heart. "You hold my heart forever." With so much conviction the entire glee club was stunned, Quinn and Tina, could only contain their laughter for so long before dying of laughter.
"What's so funny?" Kurt wondered still frozen partially.
"Kurt it was a dare, I swear." Quinn started. "I dared him to kiss you on the cheek while professing his love, he was supposed to do it over the phone, but that ended up not happening. Everyone, even Kurt had to laugh at the silliness of this all. He blushed so red you could match it to a crayon. He ran back to his car sitting in the driver seat. When everyone was finally pulled off the entire group was headed for New York again. iPods, iPads, Kindle's even DS's were taken out and played. They changed drivers around 4 or 5 and made it into New York at 3:37pm that day.
"Finally" Kurt said to himself. He was starting to have a new outlook on things. Maybe this trip wouldn't be so bad after all. Santana took over from their when they hit the city, she'd been there before for her father's conferences, she knew her way to the hotel they'd be staying. Which to be honest, was too nice for a group of teenagers getting ready to party.
"My dad get's serious discounts, don't worry you guys." Santana offered to them. "You have all week, we're members from being frequent users, and owning some stock, all the utilities are open as you know, um, you get access to the skyline at night. Be careful up there. Oh and um, room service, make sure you tip and you guys are good."
They were staying at the Four Seasons, that two hundred dollars they all paid was nothing in comparison to what the price for all this was total.
"Alright, I'm going to take a nap, I suggest you guys do too." They were still in the lobby going up the stairs, "order a bite to eat, piss, but get ready we're going out tonight." She smirked with a wink, and grabbed Brit's hand leading them to their room. Both room's were suites each containing around 4 rooms.
Kurt was officially looking forward to the next two weeks.
