Disclaimer: I do not own Glee.
A/N: I hope you like this, originally part of my collection 'Shots of Love'. But for some reason people don't seem to take too well to 'Shots of Love', so this is me trying to bring this story to a wider audience, with the hope of success.
Seldom But Seen
Blaine has always loved the way Kurt scrunches his nose. Today, he cannot resist.
The weeks have been long and tiring and still seeing Kurt, being so close it is enough to bring a smile back to his face.
So in the middle of Glee…
…he leans over and…
…and places a kiss to Kurt's cheek.
Blaine only has to wait a millisecond for Kurt to turn his head, tilting it lightly, to the side and smile at him.
Kurt half squeaks half squeals "Blaine!", trying to keep the sound under his breath, as he feels the gentle press of soft lips to the tip of his nose.
Blaine only grins wider, mouthing, 'I love you' to Kurt.
Kurt is staring now, eyes open wide, and it takes him almost two full minutes to shake himself out of this state.
"What has gotten into you?" he eventually whispers.
'I love you,' Blaine mouths once more in answer.
Kurt narrowing his eyes for a moment, deliberation clear in his features, swipes his tongue lightly over his slightly pouty bottom lip, twice, before turning his gaze back to the front f the room while, at the same time reaching over, taking Blaine's left hand into his own right, and intertwining fingers slowly and with purpose.
Kurt's eyes flutter shut, not a minute later, Mike and Tina now at the front of the room singing yet another love song to each other, and were Kurt not so distracted by Blaine's touch he would be thinking again about how it might be possible to get Tina another solo, because really it has been ages, '…dream solos really do not count.'
Blaine has completely shifted their hold of each other's hands by now and is running his thumb back and forth over the skin, '…so soft', of Kurt's palm.
The next minutes Blaine spends entirely on watching Kurt's whole body relax into the touches – feels himself relax with Kurt, his heart rate slow, his breathing even out even more.
Blaine moves his chair closer to Kurt's now, offers… - almost too temped himself to lean into Kurt's right side to resist, to put up the fight he wants to lose.
Kurt too battles. But feeling Blaine's left press into him after three minutes still, Kurt resigns himself to what he feels to be but does not dare call…fate.
Body aching almost as much as Kurt's mind for closeness Kurt almost melts into Blaine's side.
It almost never happens in public, Kurt allowing their love to show so free of inhibition, and Blaine feels the thrill of a little victory.
