Kurt had never done something so reckless. He'd always considered it; after his mother died and when Karofsky started bullying him but he knew he would never go through with it. Running away was for freaks, junkies and Puck, not Kurt and Blaine but for some reason doing so just felt so right.
Kurt looked up out of the window in the cab as they drove through the streets of New York, a big difference from Lima Ohio. Kurt smiled as he looked at the tips of the buildings dreaming of the day he can live in the city that never sleeps. He felt Blaine put his hand on his shoulder and Kurt turned around to look into the eyes of the one guy he liked more then anything. He didn't count Finn anymore; he was a childish crush.
"Told you this was a good idea" Blaine said, gently squeezing Kurt's shoulder. They had decided to go for an unannounced holiday after the trauma of changing schools.
Kurt felt greedy, willing to take his father and Carols honeymoon money because he couldn't handle one bully, but he knew he couldn't stay at McKinley. Dalton was perfect for him. A zero bullying policy but he missed Mercedes. He missed the company of his diva best friend, so Blaine had decided this is what Kurt needed. A weekend away to the place Kurt had always dreamed of.
"Yeah, it's a great idea" Kurt whispered smiling. He turned back to the window, looking at the world go past him. Blaine laughed lightly next to him and Kurt turned to look at him with questioning eyes, "What?" he said
"Oh nothing, you just can't take your eyes away can you" Blaine smirked.
"No I can't ok" Kurt laughed, "I'm too excited."
Their taxi finally made it through the grid-lock of the city and arrived at a small apartment.
"My father used to travel to New York a lot and he bought this place to stay in. It hasn't been used for ages though so we might have to clean up a little bit"
"You own an apartment in New York?" Kurt said, astonished at the thought.
"I don't, but my family does" Blaine laughed as he put the key into the lock and opened the door. "Welcome" he said as he held Kurt's hand and led him into the house. The apartment was lovely. Blaine took Kurt's bag from his hand and placed in inside the doorway. "Come on, I'll show you around" Blaine said, once again having to drag Kurt around behind him. "Here is the bedroom, you can sleep in there, I will sleep on the couch, oh and there is the bathroom" Blaine said pointing to a closed door at the end of the hallway.
"Hey you can sle-"
"And here is the lounge room and the kitchen." Blaine said smiling.
"Blaine, you can sleep in the bed, I can sleep on the couch it's cool"
"Non negotiable" Blaine smirked and then he went back to grab their bags from the front door. "Take your stuff and get settled in ok? I'm going to go make some coffee."
The room had a double bed in the middle with a small dresser to the side and a closet. Kurt unpacked his small bag, because he really didn't want to get crinkles in his new shirt.
He would have to go find a heater somewhere for Blaine. Sleeping on that couch will be really cold, and Kurt suddenly felt really guilty. Why does he get the bed? Opening the closet he found a couple of spare blankets that he pulled out and would make up the couch with. It's the least he could do. Kurt walked out into the hallway, looking for Blaine. "Hey Blaine, do you know if there is a heater in here somewhere?"
"Um I am not sure" Blaine called from the kitchen. He walked out with two mugs of coffee and put them on the table,
"but there has got to be one in here somewhere."
Both of the boys walked around the unit looking in cupboards trying to find a heater.
"Yeah I don't think there is one" Blaine frowned
"Well you are going to be freezing. I can't just let you freeze to death on the couch. I think I would freak out if I came in here tomorrow morning and found you frozen like a human ice cube!"
Blaine started laughing at the thought of him being a giant ice cube sitting on the couch. "I don't know what we will do. Let's just cross that bridge when we get to it."
…
Kurt found himself lying in the bed. Blaine was too stubborn to listen so he graciously took the couch. The problem was Kurt genuinely believed he could be dead by the morning. He put his thick socks on and walked towards the lounge room to find Blaine wrapped up in blankets, shivering.
"Oh god, your face looks blue" Kurt stressed sitting next to Blaine putting his hands on his cheeks
"It's nothing" he said putting his hands on top of Kurt's
"Oh come on, now is not the time to be the big strong man" Kurt frowned, "You can share the bed with me." Kurt said, more worried about Blaine being so cold then anything.
"Are you sure? I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable or anything"
"Seriously I am not concerned come on otherwise that whole ice cube scenario will become reality." Kurt got Blaine up and they walked towards to bedroom.
"Thanks Kurt" Blaine said as he climbed into the bed.
"It's ok." Kurt climbed into the bed next to Blaine and turned to look at him. Kurt held both Blaine's hands in between his own, attempting to warm them up slightly. Blaine's feel touched Kurt's leg and he jumped at the temperature, "Seriously how did you not freeze out there" Kurt said, exasperated. Kurt could see Blaine slowly stop shivering. He was warming up and could finally relax. Blaine rolled over hugging Kurt.
"Night" Blaine said squeezing
"Goodnight."
