Never Been Kissed AU
"Kurt, what's wrong? Why are you so upset?" Blaine asked, sitting next to his friend.
Kurt let out a sigh. "Because until yesterday…I had never been kissed." He paused. "Or at least…one that counted."
Blaine wondered what that meant and decided he could ask later. He let out a breath, looking down. After a few seconds of silence, the black-haired boy stood up, holding out his hand for Kurt. "Come on. I'll buy you lunch."
Kurt took his hand and they walked back to Blaine's car in the parking lot. They drove five minutes to a little restaurant in silence. When they got there, the two sat at a table, looking over the menus. Blaine broke the silence. "Kurt, what did you mean…'one that counted'?"
Kurt sighed, looking down. "I made out with Brittany once," he admitted, and for once the memory didn't prompt him to smile.
Blaine smirked a little at the thought but quickly stifled any laughter that might have come. "Oh. Well, why does Karofsky's kiss have to count?"
Kurt looked up in surprise. "What?"
"I mean, you don't have to consider it counted unless you give away the kiss, you know?" Blaine said thoughtfully.
"I've never thought about it like that."
Blaine reached his hand over the table and Kurt instinctively brought his out to meet it. "And when it's your true first kiss, you'll know," he said softly.
Kurt smiled softly at the Warbler. "Yeah. I guess."
And when Blaine looked into Kurt's eyes that was the moment they both knew that this, their relationship, was something more than just any old friendship. They didn't need to label it right now, they didn't even need to say it out loud. All they knew was it was something special.
