So this is my first time writing Klaine and I must say I am quite excited!

This is a short introduction to what will be my story. I am the narrator, but it's basically Third Person Omniscient. For those of you who don't pay attention in English class, this means you will get to see the point of view of every single (important) character in this story. I might have some love affairs on the side, I might have some tragic ones there as well, I may even include some Warblers. For now, this is just Klaine.

Like I said, this is short, but it's basically giving you a gist of what it will be about. The chapters, I promise, will be longer, and I will try my best to keep my updates constant!

This one is for Summer, also known here on FF as teenagedreamtonight. She's my inspiration on this and my best friend. Story's all for you, love!

Reviews are loved, really, and I promise all my other Author's notes won't be as long as this one.

I don't own Glee, any of its characters, and I most certainly do not own Chris Colfer and/or Darren Criss. The things I'd do if I did.

It's all RIB.

Enjoy, lovelies.


Prologue
.

Not a lot of people walk you through the process of falling in love.

In fact, only a few people know the true process. It's rare nowadays to hear about love at first sight and actually believe in it. It's rare to be those best childhood friends that grow to realize they have more than friendly feelings towards one another. It's hard to be one of the clichéd love stories we see in movies, hear about in fictional stories, and it's extremely hard to live such a monumental love, one that would move other people as much as it moves you.

For some, love has been ruined by every work of fiction in this world that leads us to believe that it's something much more than a simple emotion. We have grown up expecting the fireworks, expecting the sparks, expecting the monumental turn in the universe and the heart-stopping kisses, along with the stomach-fluttering hand holding. So when we fall in love and it turns out that it's not always as beautiful or mind whirling as we expected it to be, as we were falsely led into believing, it's suddenly shattering and the love that you're experiencing does not get to be experienced to the fullest, because you've given up the first few months, perhaps even the first year.

What a lot of works of fiction or a lot of screen plays don't deliver on behalf of love is that maybe you don't walk into it as quickly as you'd like. Maybe the fireworks don't exactly shoot up the sky every time you kiss within the first year of falling. Maybe it's actually a process, much like baking a cake or hunting for a house, this from a perspective of a baker and a real estate agent, respectively. If you're a musician, maybe love is like the process of writing a new song; if you're a writer, maybe love is like the process of writing a complete novel. Maybe, in the end, love really is as amazing as fictional works describe—just not as easy to go through as they do.

Kurt Hummel and Blaine Anderson are two extremely different people, yet very similar. If you would be at the place they are now, you'd understand why one would think this.

Kurt Hummel currently walks down the streets of New York City, enveloped in multiple designer clothing, even accessories. Though he certainly cannot afford them, it does not stop him from buying them, wearing them, and working them. Working them in the figurative sense and the literal one—he has a sort of irrevocable charm to him that allows him to convince many store managers to let him pay monthly bills—like one would do for a house or an apartment—for his clothing. Kurt Hummel is a man of his word; he is never late for a payment and he never buys in vain. He will wear every item he buys and works sweat for whether it is one hundred degrees outside and he only bought a scarf yesterday or it's fifty degrees out and he bought some shorts (which is very rare, but you know). Weather doesn't apply in fashion, he always says. He also learns this, being a fashion major in NYU, and lives by the rules of fashion. Only fashion, always fashion. Fashion is his true love.

Blaine Anderson, somewhere nearby yet completely oblivious to the existence of such a marvelous creature, walks down the opposite streets of New York City in a cooler manner, his fashion sense probably not as defined as Kurt's. He's wearing jeans, and he's wearing a black t-shirt, and his hair isn't exactly the most groomed this morning. In fact, Blaine doesn't care much about his appearance. He would be what an elder would call a 'hippy' nowadays, what a male would call a 'guy', and what a female would simply grimace at. Or not, depending on their tastes. Maybe some would smirk. Either way, Blaine Anderson is easily describable, and he's less rare than, say, a Kurt Hummel. The way he thinks, acts, and talks is also different, and even his career choice is different, as he is a music major in the University of Columbia. Their music department might not be the best, but it's something, and it's Columbia, and his mother would have wanted him to be here. He's a procrastinator with some tasks but he gets things done eventually, and his way of thinking is one that not a lot of people share, which, thinking of it now, might actually make him a bit rare.

Where do the similarities strike, you ask? Kurt Hummel and Blaine Anderson are both ambitious. They dream big. They know what they want and though they go about in different ways to obtain them, they rarely let anything get in there way. A romantic partner is far from their minds, and they're not you stereotypical gay men either. Okay, maybe Kurt is a bit, but while he does enjoy a romantic novel here and there and might tear up during Titanic (or right out bawl, whatever works best for you, reader) he does not place his focus on finding a romantic affair. Neither does Blaine, but that's easily visible and needs no explaining. Both of them are comfortable with their sexuality, and both of them are individuals. They don't need anyone, they don't want anyone, and they can function extremely well without anyone.

And they're also both our focus in this story.

They will find their way to true love in the actual process. They will not look at each other and think they will spend the rest of their lives together. It also will not be easy, and it will not be the painless process you might wish it to be from time to time. They are not best friends since infancy, they are not looking for the one, they will not hate each other, they will simply fall in love in the way almost everyone in this world does.

This isn't a story that will have you believing in clichés, this isn't a story that will be easy to read through at times, and this isn't a story for the impatient.

This is the untold story of the process of love.

It's no walk in the park, but love never is.

And both Kurt Hummel and Blaine Anderson are about to figure this out.
