Burt Hummel drove calmly in the afternoon sunlight while his son sat restlessly beside him.
"Dad, where are we going?"
"Can't tell you that." said Burt
"Why?"
"It's a surprise."
"But why did you tell me to dress nice? Are we going somewhere special? What is going on?" asked Kurt for the hundredth time. His father had come home from work early, told Kurt to change into something smart, and here they were, on the way to the "surprise".
"While we're here we may as well talk about something." said Kurt.
"How's Blaine? He's been constantly asking me when you were coming back from New York, and now you're back and I hear you two have... decided to give it another go?" said Burt with a small smile.
Kurt nodded, staring straight ahead.
"Yeah... last week we decided to... finally get back together. I was going to surprise him anyway, before I knew we were gonna get back together. I had this whole thing planned with a band and he had done exactly the same thing! We ended up kind of combining bands and sort of taking over the courtyard with our singing..."
"Sounds like a typical day when you two are together." chuckled Burt.
"I'm glad we're together again, but I wish we'd never broken up. It messed things up. I wish we could have just been us, forever."
"Maybe you can be." said Burt, "Only fools rush into things they're not ready for. You two are good for eachother."
The car pulled to a stop and Kurt turned to face his dad incredulously.
"We're at Dalton?"
"Surprise!" said Burt, and exited the car. Before Kurt could move, his seat had been taken by none other than Blaine Anderson.
"Hey, Kurt!" said Blaine with a smile. He was wearing a light blue shirt with a white blazer, pale tan trousers and a white bowtie. "I like your suit."
Kurt was wearing an impeccably tailored light grey plaid suit with a white shirt and thin red tie.
"Thanks." said Kurt, "So, umm – what's going on?"
"Kurt, I messed up." said Blaine earnestly, "I was an idiot and I hurt you and I hated myself for months because of it."
Kurt watched as Blaine fiddled with the cuff of his jacket.
"And you couldn't forgive me. And I'll never forgive myself. But by some miracle you decided to give me a second chance." He looked up into Kurt's eyes. "I will never, ever cheat on you ever again."
"I know." said Kurt.
Blaine gave him a small smile.
"I've been trying to think of ways to prove it to you." he said.
"Prove what?" Kurt laughed, "That you love me-"
" - Yes." said Blaine with a sincere look. He took a deep breath. "And hopefully this'll do it."
He turned on the car radio which had been silent for the entire journey there. Music started and, softly, Blaine began to sing.
Wise men say, only fools rush in
But I can't help, falling in love with you
Blaine motioned with his head for them to get out of the car. They each walked round the side and joined back together, walking side by side towards to school.
Shall I stay, would it be a sin?
If I can't help falling in love with you
The two boys reached the doors, which were flanked by three Warblers on each side. The Warblers hummed as the two walked inside, then filed in after them.
Like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, some things were meant to be
Blaine led Kurt down the beautifully painted corridor.
Take my hand
He offered it to Kurt, who took it.
Take my whole life too
They turned the corner into the common room where all the Warblers were standing, swaying where they had been the first time Kurt visited Dalton. Their voices joined Blaine's.
For I can't help falling in love with you
Blaine left Kurt's side for a second and rejoined his old position at the head of the Warblers, facing Kurt and singing to him.
Like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, some things are meant to be
He bounded out from the group, grabbed Kurt's hand and they ran into the next room – the room where they had shared their first kiss. Blaine whipped round and took both of Kurt's hand in his.
Take my hand, take my whole life too
Blaine was looking so fixatedly into Kurt's eyes, Kurt felt like his eyes were boring into his soul.
For I can't help falling in love with you
Blaine led him round one final corner to the staircase. That beautiful, wonderful staircase where Kurt had met the love of his life.
The song slowed, and Kurt realised he was breathing heavily and was almost choked up. If anyone knew how to make a romantic gesture, it was Blaine Anderson.
Blaine was standing in front of Kurt, fighting back a smile in order to keep singing. With a final breath he sang the last line of the song-
For I can't help falling in love with you
-and got down on one knee.
A/N: I usually only write one-shots, but I've decided to make this one multi-chapter so I'll update it as soon as I can :)
