Blaine rolled over and stared at the clock, 12:15am he groaned and pulled his pillow out from under his head and put it over his face thinking that if maybe just maybe he might pass out from lack of oxygen. but to no avail when he peered out at the clock again what seemed like an hour later it was only 12:18am the numbers flashing brighter as if to taunt him.
Tomorrow morning would mark the start of the last week he would ever spend at Dalton.
Blaine wished he had been a year younger! Why oh why didn't he just fail a few classes, god knows the thought had crossed his mind more times, than he would like to admit. Nevertheless, no he had to come top of his year, his parents would not accept anything less, they would have made me transfer anyway if I had have failed he thought morosely.
Blaine threw off his covers there was no way he was going to sleep now. A maybe some warm milk will do the trick he said to his empty room.
Blaine jumped up and grabbed his silky black robe off the back of the lounge where it had landed earlier that night. He wrapped it around himself tightly and smiled, Blaine's boyfriend Kurt had been wearing his robe earlier tonight his scent still strong on the soft fabric.
Damn this is what he would miss, being so close to Kurt he loved him with all his heart and although he wasn't actually leaving for collage several weeks they would not see each in person for a few months. Blaine was spending his holidays in England; he had managed to earn a small role in the musical Cats playing on west end. It was not a huge role, but it was something he was desperate to do before collage started.
Kurt understood of course he would he had been pushing Blaine for months now to better himself and go for his dreams.
Blaine padded softly over the thick carpet of his room; his door gave a slight squeak as he gently opened it. Glancing around the dimly lit hallway he noticed the only room with lights on was the one across the hall, Kurt's room. Blaine laughed softly to himself imagining Kurt asleep at his desk, face on his book and his iPod playing Whitney Huston his favourite studying music.
How many times had he found Kurt in that very position he had lost count of the amount of times he had gone in and carried Kurt to bed and tucked him in. Kurt was such a sound sleeper that he never even woke up. Blaine sighed, he would miss the extra special kiss Kurt would give him the mornings after.
Blaine stepped closer to Kurt's door he was about to open it when he heard soft sobs emanating from the room without hesitation Blaine reached for the handle he had just started to turn when he heard a voice a deep masculine voice, not Kurt's! Blaine took a step back "whoa" he thought," "obviously not sleeping then."
Blaine thought for a minute, not wanting to interrupt decided to go and have a drink, then come back and see if Kurt's ok, whoever is in there should be gone by then," I hope!"
Blaine walked down the stairs to the kitchen poured his milk and set it spinning in the microwave and looked around the kitchen," thank god we have a cook" he thought "or all the boys in here would starve" warming milk and making grilled cheese was about the extent of the cooking ability Blaine had.
Blaine's attention returned to the microwave he pressed the open button one second before the ding he hated that little ding for some unknown reason.
Blaine decided maybe some mindless TV would help him sleep as he walked towards the common room he caught sight of the bickie tin "I wonder " he thought opening it "yes" he said a little too loudly they had re stocked grabbing out two Monty Carlo bickies he padded out to the common room.
As he, thought it was deserted exams were over for the seniors but the other years still had a couple to go this week.
Blaine landed on the lounge with a plop, grabbed the remote and flicked the TV on. He flipped through the channels infomercial, infomercial, religious show, infomercial, wow TV sucked that time of night! He finally settled on a re-run of the Simpsons. Blaine tried to get into it but his mind shifted back to where it always was … on Kurt.
Blaine had a fair idea why Kurt had been in tears he had been that way for a month now. Last year when Blaine had started talking about graduation and working overseas it had been months away not really their reality, but now, it was so close, and for the last month, whenever Blaine had mentioned something about it, Kurt's eyes would glisten with tears, in realization Blaine's impending departure was growing ever closer.
Blaine felt terrible. He knew he was the cause of Kurt's pain and he had vowed to himself, Kurt, and Kurt's dad that he would never ever hurt Kurt in any very EVER. However, Blaine and Kurt had spoken at length about this very subject and had settled on the knowledge that Blaine was not actually hurting Kurt on purpose. This was not the end for them it was just the beginning of a new era.
Blaine swirled the last bit of milk in his cup and downed it in one big gulp. Well I suppose I should go and check on Kurt and try to get some sleep.
As Blaine made his way back up the stairs, his eyes flicked to the clock high up in the wall. 1:35 Am. That is late enough; I should be able to get some sleep now he thought with a yawn.
Blaine walked softly down the hall, and headed straight for Kurt's room. As expected the light was off under the door, Blaine smiled to himself and turned towards his own door but then he heard voices again coming from Kurt's room. Is Kurt having a sleepover? Blaine wondered to himself that was not unusual for Kurt to have someone share his room, he hated to sleep alone but Blaine had asked Kurt if he wanted him to stay but Blaine's offer was dismissed quickly, Kurt offering the excuse that he had to study and would get nothing done if Blaine was in the room.
Blaine had the flickering thought that maybe something untoward was happening behind the closed door. But the second he thought it he scolded himself," BLAINE ANDERSON GET THAT IDEA OUT OF YOUR OVERACTIVE BRAIN AND GO TO BED!"
Blaine stepped lightly back across the hall and into his room. When he had safely closed the door he let out a soft laugh to himself, "I really need sleep even my brain is against me," and he popped down on the bed, pulled his soft thick comforter over him, closed his eyes and promptly fell asleep with a smile on his face.
Later that morning Blaine opened his eyes and immediately shut them again. He had forgotten to close the curtains last night and the sudden light was an assault on his eyes. Blaine could hear the usual sounds of morning out in the halls. Blaine could hear Wes and David singing their way down to breakfast and Kurt's morning music belting out from his room. This morning it was lady gaga, Kurt always listened to lady gaga on the morning of an exam.
Blaine hopped up and stared around his room. He had not been able to start packing yet it would seem too real. Blaine decided to grab a quick shower before heading over to see Kurt; morning breath was not a good look. After turning on the hot water Blaine stepped in, he could feel the hot water loosening his muscles, he arched his back and let the water concentrate on his neck. After 10 minutes, he started to get that nauseous feeling that comes with too much steam and switched the shower off. That's better now to face the day.
Blaine quickly dressed in his neatly pressed Dalton uniform grabbed his bag and headed over to Kurt's to watch him complete his morning skincare routine. Blaine thought Kurt's routines were a little over the top, not that he would ever say anything. Blaine loved Kurt, routines and all.
Blaine swung his door open and marched straight in through Kurt's open door. Sitting on Kurt's bed was Kurt's stepbrother Finn "oh that explains the voices," Blaine thought happily relieved Kurt had someone decent with him the night before.
Kurt was sitting at his dressing table just finishing applying his moisturizer. Blaine's heart quickened its pace when their eyes locked in the mirror. Kurt jumped up and skipped over to Blaine he had a huge smile plastered on his face, Blaine caught Kurt in a giant hug and whispered' morning baby" into Kurt's ear. Kurt lent down slightly and gave Blaine a very passionate kiss one usually reserved for the mornings they woke up together. Blaine responded just as eagerly forgetting there was someone else in the room.
"Hey guys, other people present in the room you know." Kurt and Blaine reluctantly broke out of their kiss and looked over at Finn arms still around each other. "Sorry Finn kinda forgot you were there for a second." Blaine apologized and Kurt just blushed. "it's cool, just thought I would remind you, I worried for a moment there it looked like you were going to rip each other's clothes off" Blaine laughed a twinkle in his eye, "a few more minutes and you may have been right" he looked at Kurt who was now just looking embarrassed.
"I have to head off any way I am going to be late as it is." Finn hopped up off Kurt's bed and came over to give his brother a hug goodbye. As Kurt reached up to put his arms around his taller brother he whispered, "Thanks again for last night. I know your still not completely comfortable with Blaine and I but you cover it nicely" and kissed Finn on his cheek. Finn replied with one of his beautiful smiles and a head ruffle. It was about as intimate as he could get with another guy and Kurt appreciated it. Finn turned to Blaine, "good seeing you again, look after Kurt, and I'm sure I will see you before you leave." Finn held out his hand and Blaine took it giving it a firm shake. Then Blaine and Kurt were alone.
Kurt turned to Blaine shooting him a shy smile. Blaine lent up and kissed Kurt's soft lips gently. When the moment had passed curt shot a look at his watch, "oh god Blaine I have to run, my English exam starts in 20minutes." Blaine grabbed Kurt's bag as well as his own and hurried down to the kitchen to grab something to eat. "Coffee I need coffee," Kurt said with a groan. "You need to eat too it will help you think straight in your exam" Kurt shot Blaine a look of annoyance "yes mum" Blaine rolled his eyes at Kurt and tossed him a granola bar from the pantry.
The two boys hurried side by side across the school grounds heading for main building where Kurt had his English exam. They skidded to a Holt in front of the classroom door 5 minutes before Kurt had to go in. Just enough time to finish my coffee Kurt thought. Kurt turned to Blaine "you should go I don't want you to be late for your class!" "Its fine there is really no content to be learnt now exams are done. I don't even think half the seniors are even at school anymore." Blaine said with a shrug
"OK then well you can stay here and stop me completely freaking out" Blaine laughed Kurt was so cute when he was flustered, Blaine noted Kurt's cheeks had a pink sheen to them and lips were a deep red, so kissable at the moment Blaine thought to himself. Students had started milling around the closed door; Blaine could see Mr Gunders placing exam sheets on all the desks. He was just about done. Blaine turned to Kurt, grasped him lightly by the shoulders, looked Kurt right in the eyes and leant in to give him a quick peck on the lips. "Good luck and I will see you on the other side," and in a softer voice added, "I love you, you will ace it." Kurt smiled at Blaine and leant in to give his boyfriend a cuddle "I love you too! And thanks" and with one last smile Kurt turned and entered the classroom.
Blaine did not want to go to class now. His presence would not be missed. Blaine knew he should go and start packing but it could wait. Instead, he went to the Warblers practice room. Blaine walked across the room his footsteps echoing, and sat down at the piano stool, he let his fingers lightly brush over the keys. Blaine found himself reminiscing about the day he first met Kurt, the day he had first sung for Kurt. He recalled with a smile Kurt's face as Blaine had started to sing the song that had eventually became their song. Blaine ran over some of the lyrics that had turned out to be so right.
My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
This song had brought them together, so Blaine thought it fitting that it be their departing song too. He made the decision he would sing this for Kurt at the graduation dinner that coming Friday night.
In the next chapter, the final days of life at Dalton and how will Kurt react when Blaine tells him some exciting news…
