A/N: This is my first Klaine fic so I hope you like it. It is going to be as close a canon as possible but there will be some things that I might change. This is basically fluff in full mode because to me Klaine is the sweetest couple ever and writing this story has been my way to cope with everything going on this season. I am a few chapters ahead already so I will be able to update weekly (at least that`s the plan). I do take prompts so if there is something you wished you had seen on the show and you want to see it happening here, just let me know, I might include it. Constructive criticism is welcome. Ok, No more rambling. Enjoy!

KURT AND BLAINE, A LOVE STORY

THE KLISS

Wow, so this is how being in love feels like? – Blaine thought to himself as he watched Kurt sing Blackbird. He couldn´t keep his eyes from staring to the boy that has been his best friend for the past five months, the one who just now was stirring things within him that were unfamiliar to him. It was a scary but unbelievably wonderful feeling at the same time. He wanted to laugh and cried, all at once but mostly, he wanted to be close to Kurt, to be the one to comfort him, the only one who could make it all better by kissing his sorrow and pain away.

Wow, wait! What? I want to kiss him? I do want to kiss him! – realization hit him like a ton of bricks. He did want to kiss him and above it all, he wanted Kurt to be his first kiss. He will consider it his first real kiss because he was drunk when he had kissed Rachel and as Kurt pointed out once, kissing girls didn´t count, especially when you barely remember doing it.

Blaine was so happy right now that Jeremiah had turned him down because he hadn´t felt about him not even a hundredth fraction of what he was feeling for Kurt and he knew right then that when they finally got together and share that first kiss, it will be the most amazing and special moment of his life. The thought was also frightening, he had to admit.

He had been attracted to Kurt the moment he saw him, he had kept to himself that when he sang Teenage Dream that first day, Kurt had been in his mind the entire time. Wes and David had given him hell that day, saying that it was so obvious that he was watching Kurt with heart-shaped eyes the whole song and he did his best to deny it until they got over it; although he had the suspicion that they didn´t really believed him because of all the jokes and remarks they still give him about Kurt every now and then.

Blaine had dismissed it all afterwards because that first encounter with Kurt hadn´t be the first time he had been attracted to someone, but he did admit to himself that his reaction to those other guys had never been that fast and that strong. At that time, he thought it was probably because Kurt was so handsome and his eyes were mesmerizing, he knew better now; Anyways, he learned early on that his new friend was going through a very hard and traumatic moment in his life and he needed support, no someone without a clue about romance to complicate things for him, so he settled for friendship and he quickly felt comfortable with the dynamic in their relationship.

A few weeks ago, when Valentine´s Day had arrived, their friendship was the most important relationship he's ever had and he didn´t want to mess it up. That is why he didn´t pursue Kurt when he had confessed he had feelings for him that day. By that time, he had convinced himself that his feelings for Kurt were a result of the complicity and understanding they shared as friends, he clearly had been delusional all along and surely unknowingly hurting Kurt´s feelings along the way, so Blaine punched himself mentally for being such an idiot and hoped that Kurt still felt the same.

Kurt finished his song with tears running down his face. He thanked the Warblers for their support and walked out of the room. Blaine wanted to go after him but panic got in the way, what could he do or say right now when Kurt was so obviously upset? And granted, in his state of mind he wasn´t able to form a single coherent thought. He needed to think things through this time.

All the Warblers cleared the room shortly after, except for Wes and David, who were packing their things. They noticed that their friend was still sitting on the sofa looking kind of stunned.

"Blaine, are you alright?" – David asked

"Yes, I am. I mean, I think I am" – Blaine responded shaking his head slightly

"Is something wrong? You looked like you were in some kind of shock" – Wes commented

"I´m fine, I promise"

"Is this about Kurt?" – David asked his friend raising one eyebrow

"How did you know?" – Blaine said as he was caught out of guard

"Well" – David explained – "You were perfectly fine until he walked in and sang. After that you just sat there spaced out. You don´t have to be Sherlock Holmes to guess"

"Do you need any help from us? You can talk to us, you know that" – Wes said trying to be sympathetic. David and Wes sat in front of him.

"I know. It's just that … right up until now I hadn´t realized that my feelings for Kurt were much deeper and stronger than I thought. It threw me out of base, that´s all." – Blaine sighed.

"Thank you God! He´s finally got it!" – David said out loud raising his arms up in the air.

"You knew?" – Blaine asked incredulously.

"We all knew. You´re totally smitten with him, you have been since the beginning, you my friend just have been in denial all this time. Kurt only has eyes for you too, you know?" – David informed his friend.

"Really?" – Blaine said with a huge smile spreading all over his face.

"Yes, really!" – Wes answered rolling his eyes – "The entire group has been watching you two as if it was a Nicholas Spark´s novel turned to a chick flick. We have money on you, too. I think Nick and Jeff will be really happy, they bet on month five."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes" – Wes and David said together. "I lost fifty bucks last month, thank you very much" – David said with false resentment.

"What do I do now? I don´t know how to behave or what to say to him or how to talk to him" – Blaine said desperately.

"Dude, relax! – David told him – "Kurt is smitten with you, too. That means that somehow your regular you managed to gain and hold his interest, pretty much the same way Kurt being Kurt has drawn you to him, too. The hard part is done, you´re in."

"David is right. All you have to do is to be yourself, as cliché as it sounds. Would you want Kurt to change the way he is or acts around you just to be with you?"

"No, I like him for who he is. I love the fact that he´s totally unapologetic for who he is, actually"

"There you have your answer. All you have to do is talk to him, tell him how you feel. Take it slow, step by step and you should be fine" – David said confidently – "It has worked for me and Julie, at least."

"Thank you guys, you´ve been very helpful" – there was some kind of relief in Blaine´s voice.

"Don´t mention it. We´re glad we could provide some assistance" – Wes said with a smile.

Blaine figured that Kurt was too upset to talk to him right now. He knew that Kurt liked having time alone when he was very upset, like a few days ago when he kicked him out of his room because he was uncomfortable with the conversation they were having. He blushed a little when he remembered that that conversation was about sex and that if things went well, they will have to pick it up sometime in the future.

He decided to send Kurt a text just to let him know he will go to see him if he needed him, that way he would show his support without intruding.

Kurt had been very sad about Pavarotti, singing Blackbird was a way to cope with his grief and he was feeling much better now, although all the emotional stress had left him exhausted. Some Warblers were trying to cheer him up after the song but all he wanted to do was to go to his room and sleep, he wasn´t in the mood to talk to anyone. He had just entered his room when he received a text.

Kurt, I´m so sorry about Pavarotti. I guess you want to be by yourself right now because I know you´re very upset, but I´m here for you if you need me. You just call and I´ll be there in a second - Blaine

Kurt smiled in spite of himself, it was very comforting to see how well Blaine knew him and that he could always count on him. He quickly texted back, put on his most comfortable pajamas, pulled the curtain down and got into bed to indulge in some unhealthy snacks and went to sleep early.

Blaine read the answer from Kurt:

Thank you for being there for me and for understanding that I need some time alone. I´ll be fine tomorrow, I promise. I´ll see you in the morning - Kurt

It was a great feeling to know that he knew Kurt so well and that he had done the right thing. Now, he just had to find the best way to tell him that he wanted him to be his boyfriend not just a friend. That night was going to be a long one for him.

By morning Blaine had figured a way to tell Kurt about his feelings, he would try to convince the council to let him share the spotlight with Kurt and sing a duet for Regionals and all that extra time alone practicing will give him the opportunity to see if Kurt was still interested in him and a chance to ask him out on a date.

Later that day, when the council was having such a hard time picking out the songs for the competition he saw the perfect opportunity and took it. He wasn´t sure what the Warblers´ reaction would be so he was very surprised but really happy that they all took his suggestion so well and Kurt was now his duet partner and he already had the perfect song for them. He guessed that David and Wes were giving him a hand because his request had been very out of the ordinary and for them not to present an objection was a big thing so he made a metal note to thank them later.

He could tell that Kurt was surprised but pleased and he couldn´t help a smile because watching Kurt being this excited made him very happy. Now it was time to put his plan into action, he just hoped he still had the guts to do it.

Later that evening Blaine couldn´t take it any more so he went to look for Kurt. He found him sitting at one of the common rooms working on something.

"What´s that?" – He asked approaching the table where Kurt was working at. Kurt looked up at him and his heart started beating a hundred miles per hour. This a common occurrence for him by now.

"I´m decorating Pavarotti´s casket" – Kurt said with a sad note in his voice and looked back down to what he was doing.

"Well, finish up. I have the perfect song for our number and we should practice" – Blaine told him already thinking of all the time they had ahead of them, alone together.

"Do tell" – Kurt said with a smile. He had been very surprised at how the Warblers´ meeting had turned out earlier and he was very curious about what Blaine had in mind. Not that he would ever complain, he loved singing with Blaine so they could sing a lullaby for all he cared, but he knew Blaine must have chosen a smash hit to throw the audience´s socks off.

"Candles, by Hey Monday" – Blaine informed him and that surprised him.

"I´m impressed, you´re usually so top 40" – Kurt told him.

"Well, I just wanted something a little more emotional" – Blaine told Kurt before he could help himself and he knew his answer had made Kurt caught on something for the way he looked at him. His knees were shaking so he sat down next to Kurt.

Kurt was surprised with Blaine´s answer and that added to the whole duet proposition at the meeting and his refusal to hold auditions and asking bluntly for him to be his duet partner, he just had to ask:

"Why did you pick me to sing that song with?"

Blaine knew the moment had come and all he could do was to speak from his heart and cross his fingers that he could make Kurt understand: "Kurt" – he said with all the warmth in his heart – "there´s a moment when you say to yourself: Oh, there you are. I´ve been looking for you forever" – Blaine took a deep breath because his next words were about to change everything for him, for both of them and he couldn´t be more scared. He moved closer and took the hand Kurt had on the table. Kurt opened his eyes at the realization of what was going on and he felt his stomach give summersaults not believing that this was actually happening, but loving the feeling of Blaine touching him like this.

Blaine was glad that Kurt didn´t pull back his hand and he thought it was a good sign so he went all the way in: "Watching you do Blackbird this week, that was that moment for me ... about you" – Blaine breathed out as it finally was all out in the open. Kurt on the other hand couldn´t believe what he was hearing and Blaine´s next four words put his world upside down – "You move me, Kurt. And this duet would be just an excuse to spend more time with you" – Blaine confessed at last.

Kurt was speechless. Blaine, not wanting to let anything hanging just in case Kurt hadn´t gotten the message and not being able to stop himself one more second, took Kurt by surprise by leaning in and kissing him full on the mouth and cupping gently his cheek.

Blaine was in cloud nine because feeling Kurt´s lips on his was heaven and when he felt Kurt kissing him back and Kurt´s hand on his cheek pulling him closer, he felt as if a lightning had struck him and now was running all the way down from his head to his toes. He knew he was lost and his life would never be the same.

Kurt hadn´t seen any of what was happening coming and to say he was shocked was an understatement, but Blaine was kissing him and all he could do was to close his eyes and enjoy the indescribable happiness he was feeling. He decided right then that this was going to be his official first kiss. Kissing Brittany didn´t count and what Karofsky had done to him had been an assault, not a real kiss. Without really thinking about it, his body responded on his own accord and he kissed Blaine back. When Blaine deepened the kiss a little, he couldn´t let him go so he raised his hand to cup Blaine´s cheek in an attempt to hold him closer.

When they pulled apart, Blaine looked away with a blush, he couldn´t believe what he had just done. Kurt on the other side was breathless and in his astonishment he let his hand fall heavily on the table.

"we should …we should practice" – was all Blaine mastered to say resting his chin on one of his hands with a bashful smile, he didn´t know what to do or what was running through Kurt´s mind at the moment.

"I thought we were" – Kurt said with a smile and a small sigh. He could tell that Blaine didn´t know what to do with himself and it was endearing, so he decided to help him out by making it clear that his advances were welcome. His message had been loud and clear because Blaine got the hint and launched himself towards Kurt for a second kiss and this time Kurt was more than ready for it and he reached to meet Blaine´s lips with his own half way.

Their second kiss started out very passionately as the first one, but little by little it turned into something tender, slow, and sweet. Blaine circled Kurt´s waist with his arms, pulling him closer to him. Kurt rested his arms on Blaine´s shoulders, placing both his hands on either side of Blaine´s neck, holding him in place. They stood like that for a while, learning each other´s rhythms until they found their own. Then, Kurt reluctantly pulled away.

"Is there something wrong?" – Blaine asked him worriedly as he watched Kurt disengaging himself from him and taking a few steps back.

"No, of course not" – Kurt walked to one of the sofas that were in the room and sat down, Blaine followed and sat next to him, both of them facing each other –"It´s just … as much as I´m enjoying this I need to know why the change of heart? You let me know, not so many weeks ago, that you only saw me as a friend and now, am I your boyfriend? I just don´t know what to think or how to feel"

"You´re right. I understand how this might look to you. But trust me, this …" – Blaine said while taking Kurt´s hands in his – "… is as surprising to me as it is surprising to you. Yesterday you were just my best friend and all of a sudden I´ve gotten all these feelings for you and it was so unsettling because I didn´t know what to do and I came here, you asked me why I wanted to sing with you and I just couldn´t hold it any longer… and the answer to your question is yes, I want you to be my boyfriend if you´ll have me, so would you? Would you like to be my boyfriend, Kurt?" Kurt thought that Blaine was really cute when he rambled.

"Yes" – He said with a big smile – "Yes, I would like it, very much"

"So, can I keep kissing my boyfriend, then?" – Blaine asked with an impish smile

"Absolutely, and this is the last time you have to ask my permission to do it"

"Only if you accept that I extend the same courtesy to you"

"Deal!" – they both laughed at that last comment. Blaine leaned in to give Kurt a soft kiss on the lips.

"This is nice, isn´t it?" – Blaine said to Kurt when they broke apart from their last kiss, touching Kurt´s nose with his.

"A lot of things that we were doing just now were nice. At what you´re referring to, specifically?"

"This!" – Blaine responded giving a little squeeze to Kurt´s hands – "all of this. You and I, together; I was worried that things would feel weird between us but it is a relief to see that we´re both as comfortable with the other as we´ve always been. It makes me really happy."

"We´ve been such good friends for so long and we know and trust each other so much that maybe we´ve been lucky enough that it has played on our favor and not against us"

"I guess you´re right … So… do you need any assistance with Pavarotti´s casket? I´d love to help."

"Thank you, that would be great"

Blaine helped Kurt the rest of the evening and he was very happy that things had gone so well and that now, this amazing guy was his. He would give Kurt flirty glances every now and then and he would receive some from Kurt as well, both blushing and smiling whenever they touched, but still feeling very comfortable around each other.

After finishing Pavarotti´s casket, they ate some snacks that Kurt had with him and started rehearsing their duet until it was flawless, when they were done it was really late, Blaine helped Kurt to pick his things up and finally he took his hand intertwining their fingers and walked him to his room. He kissed Kurt good-night and went to his dorm to enjoy a wonderful night dreaming about his amazing and breathtaking new boyfriend.
