Kurt hasn't even rationally thought about this idea. All he knows is that the next morning, he already packed his stuff and got ready for a ride. They don't know where they're going . All they know is that they have to get out of Lima. They haven't even talked about it much, Sebastian brought idea up last night. Kurt instantly started to pack his bags and Sebastian went to his room. Kurt doesn't even know why he accepted to go with Sebastian, who's a pain in the ass and they'll probably fight most of the drive.
Kurt dresses himself and heads downstairs with a few bags in his arms. Sebastian is already waiting for him outside in the early morning light, smiling to himself. Kurt greets him and puts his bags and package in the car, checking the things off their small list with Sebastian.
„Money for fuel?", asks Sebastian.
„Got it."
„Blankets?"
„Here."
They scan over a few more things, and before Kurt even realizes it – they're in the car and moving.
Sebastian turns on the radio and Kurt groans in protest when some Top 40 song is heard from the radio. They fight over the radio stations for awhile but then they find the station with the music they both tolerate and both shut up.
„Where are we gonna go?" , Kurt asks after a few first minutes of the ride.
Sebastian looks at him. „Where do you wanna go?"
Kurt thinks for a minute. He knows he wants to get away from his failed hopes and dreams. But other than that, he has no idea where he could go. So he simply says: „West"
Sebastian's eyebrows shoot in suprise, but he doesn't ask for explanations just yet.
„You?", Kurt asks, after a few silent moments.
„Me what?", Sebastian furrows his eyebrows.
Kurt rolls his eyes. „ Where do you wanna go?"
Sebastian thinks for awhile, lips pressed together tight in thinking. „North."
Kurt nods, not quite understanding, but instead of asking, says: „So, north-west."
Sebastian just looks at him dumbly.
„That's where we're going dummy."
Sebastian swallows a lump in his throat and nods, saying:" Yes, good thinking."
They talk a lot. About everything. Kurt about his family, his mother's death and father's now stable health condition. About Carole and Finn. About best moments in the New Directions and Santana's mean insults (which caused Sebastian to smile and Kurt say: „She's just like you.")
Sebastian talks about his mom and dad, who are ridiculously in love. About his childhood in the rich family, his older brother and sister. And his twin brother's suicide three years ago. Kurt is shocked by that fact but doesn't bury deeper into the story, because he knows how much those memories can hurt. Sebastian also talks about his life in Paris, how Kurt would love it and promises to take him there one day. Then they talk about their mutual memories. About meeting each other and regionals . About the first time they had to spend the night together and the fist time they saw each other cry, none of them asking for any explanations, just helping each other and giving what the other needed at the moment.
They drive that way for about three hours, and then they stop at the gas station to go to the bathroom and get coffee. They buy some sandwiches for later and pack them in their to-go fridge, and stand by the car for awhile.
„Where are we gonna stay tonight?", Kurt asks while sipping his coffee.
Sebastian smiles. „We'll find some motel. Get a two-bed room and get out the morning after."
They talk for few more minutes, untill their coffee cups are empty and then they get back in car. They decide to switch, so Sebastian could get some rest and Kurt takes the driver's place. Sebastian reads a book, which Kurt founds out is called 'The Road', and seems to be reallyy into it. They talk about books for some time. They get into a conversation about which Hunger Games book is the best, and they so easily get lost in the conversation. Sebastian is easy to talks with, as crazy as that sounded. He's still sarcastic, obnoxious, and makes more jokes about his sex life that it's appropriate. But he's still very intelligent, he has strong and mature opinions about some things and never says something without at least some kind of argument.
So they just keep going for the day. They barely even got out of Ohio when they both get tired and decide to stop and eat by the turning.
