"I love you."
"What?" Blaine replied
The hurt look on Kurt's face told Blaine that that was NOT the correct answer to that statement.
"If you don't…that's okay," Kurt squeaked, "I know it's only been two months, but I just thought…"
"Kurt," Blaine said gently, "I didn't say that I didn't love you, it's just…this is all so new! You're amazing, beautiful, and I care about you so much. But…I just don't know if this is the right time for that yet."
"I'm so sorry, I'm so stupid, I just didn't think…" Kurt croaked out, starting to sob.
"Oh Kurt," Blaine said, blinking back his own tears, "you aren't stupid! You're one of the best things to ever happen to me, and I care about you so much! Just because I haven't said I love you doesn't mean that I'm completely heartless and don't care about you!"
With that, he wrapped his arms around Kurt and planted a kiss on the top of his head.
"Someday, when I'm ready, I will say those three words to you," Blaine said in a low voice, arms still wrapped around Kurt, "it could be next week, or three months from now! But I want to mean them with every single fiber of my being."
"Okay," Kurt said, still choking on huge sobs, "I…I just….you…mean….so much….to me."
"I know, I just really don't want either of us to get hurt," Blaine said softly, kissing at Kurt's neck, "I...I've had a couple boyfriends before, and this is already more serious than them. Honestly, I'm afraid of what it would feel like if something went wrong-I feel so strongly about you that I just don't know what I'd do."
Kurt turned around, looking deeply into Blaine's eyes, which were full of care and what definitely looked like love, but whatever. If Blaine wasn't ready to admit what he felt, that was his own problem, but Kurt knew the feelings in his own heart, and knew that this wasn't some little schoolboy crush. Kurt then realized that he had been staring at Blaine for a good three minutes, and he was starting to look at Kurt strangely.
"Yes?" Blaine asked quizzically.
"Nothing," said Kurt quietly, "I was just thinking about how glad I am that I met you…I can't imagine what I would be like now."
Blaine came back to sit next to Kurt on the sofa, taking his hand as Kurt snuggled into his shoulder.
"This feels perfect." Blaine said with a smile. "And I do think you're amazing."
"You flatter me," Kurt replied with a giggle, "and I'm sorry I got so emotional, I should have known…"
"S'okay," Blaine said sleepily, "I think we should maybe just pass out here watching Beauty and the Beast again."
"Deal," Kurt said, stretching up to kiss him, "as long as I get to sing Belle's part for awhile."
Blaine kissed him back, only breaking the kiss to say, "I suppose," then adding, with a sheepish grin, "as long as I get to be Gaston."
"You would," Kurt giggled, "but okay!"
And they laid there, watching their favorite movie, singing the songs, and just enjoying each other's company.
