Hi, everyone!

I had inspiration to finally write this fic when I was really bored at work. This is interestingly enough a story that is based off a personal experience of my very first crush, so I wanted to share it with you. Just so you know, this will be most likely a 5 chapter fic, so not very long, but takes place over a long period of time.

I hope you like it as much as I liked it happening.

It began when he was 11. He had been hanging out all that Saturday in the living room with his brother, Cooper, silently playing video games when Cooper stood up without warning, walking towards the front door.

"Where you goin', Coop?"

"Kurt's here." was all he replied. Blaine had known of his brother's good friend for a little while now, but he wasn't too concerned about him. Cooper, being two years older than him, tended to keep his personal life separate from his home life. Blaine assumed this was because he was pretty cool, by his friends standards at school and Blaine, being the younger brother who went to a private school separate from where Cooper went meant that they didn't get to talk very often, so it was never a big topic of discussion.

He returned to playing his game when Cooper came back in, a bowl of chips in hand, and Kurt following close behind. Blaine looked up to greet Kurt, not wanting to be rude and ignore him. He was thankful he had paused the game he was playing because when he saw the face that had just entered the room, his brain suddenly felt dizzy and he froze a little. Quick to recover himself, he shook his head slightly and stood up. He reached out his hand and said as confidently as he could, "Hi! I'm Blaine."

Cooper, finishing the introduction, added "Yeah, Kurt this is my little brother. We were just hanging out. We can probably kick him out if you want." Blaine was inwardly fuming, mad that his brother had to emphasize that he was younger and blushed outwardly as Kurt let out a small giggle.

"He's fine, Coop. Maybe we can all play together? I never had a little brother, he may not be that bad to have around." With that, Kurt lightly bumped Blaine's shoulder and Blaine felt like it was on fire. He nodded and looked at Cooper. "Yeah, Coop. I'll be cool."

Cooper looked slightly annoyed, but agreed and they all sat down, putting in a movie for them to watch together, so that no one was left out. Blaine had no idea why he wanted to keep looking over at Kurt so much, but the boy was so interesting to him and his insides felt like butterflies were let loose. He wanted to know more about Kurt, not just watch some stupid movie, but sat through in silence, trying his best to concentrate on the storyline.

When the movie finally finished, Cooper and Kurt began to talk about things that were going on in school. Blaine sat quietly, trying to not say anything, fearing that Cooper would kick him out if he remembered him being there.

"So I was thinking about asking Rachel to the dance this Friday." Cooper was explaining to Kurt. "We could maybe even dance a dance or two. I really wanted to ask Quinn, but she's been holding hands with that Finn guy, so I think they are going together. Who are you going to ask? I know my dad doesn't normally think it's a good idea, but I think you should ask Mercedes, I know she likes you. She was passing notes with Rachel about you yesterday." Kurt blushed a dark red color and looked at the couch, picking at the seam. Blaine wondered why he didn't seem more confident about the fact that a girl was crushing on him, like Cooper had been about Rachel for the last week.

"I don't know if I want to ask her. I don't really like her like that, we are just really good friends." Cooper looked confused, but shrugged it off.

"Maybe you could ask that Brittany girl, she's not too smart, but she's pretty." Kurt seemed more receptive to this idea and quietly agreed that he'd try and ask her on Monday. Blaine noticed that Kurt wasn't really into the conversation and hoped that Cooper would get the hint.

"I think I'll try to kiss Rachel on Friday, too. I know that Puck has kissed a few girls, but outside of him, I don't think anyone in our class has kissed anyone. We need to do the same for you, a lot of the guys on the football team have been saying weird things about you. Don't worry, I stood up for ya, but we need to convince Brittany to be your girlfriend to make sure they stop talking about it. Something about you like boys, which is stupid and weird. Whatever."

"Yeah, whatever. I'll ask Brittany on Monday." Blaine watched as Kurt sat silently, worrying his bottom lip between his teeth. Coop had gotten up to go grab a drink for the two of them and Blaine took that time to speak up.

"I- I don't really think it's stupid to like boys." Blaine said, not understanding where the thought had come from. He had never really thought about it, but didn't find it weird like Cooper had said. Kurt looked up at Blaine with worried eyes.

"I didn't either. But... I guess I was maybe wrong?" Blaine didn't have a chance to reply because Cooper had come back to the room and finally realized Blaine was still there.

"Dude, get out. Kurt and I are having grown up talk about girls." Blaine scowled, but got up, glancing over to Kurt who watched him stand up and leave.

Throwing a quick wave, Blaine quickly said "It was nice meeting you, Kurt" before leaving the room.

Quickly heading up to his room, Blaine dropped down, face first onto his bed and sighed. He hated when his brother played the "grown up" card. He was only 13, he was still in the 8th grade, for goodness sake. Blaine shook the anger away and his mind strayed to Kurt. He seemed like a nice enough guy. His voice was nice, kind of like the girls in his grade, but it was much nicer, most of their's were annoying as hell. He thought back to the few words they exchanged, talking about liking boys. He had never really thought about it, being only in the 6th grade, no one had really started dating yet. He assumed that he would eventually date a girl, but it didn't sound too appealing to him. Blaine found himself letting his mind imagine dating a boy. Holding hands seemed normal with anyone, whether it was his guy friends, pulling them towards the jungle gym, or his girl friends, who wanted to hold hands on the swing and swing around together. Blaine decided he would have to think about kissing, so he imagined the prettiest girl in his class, Tina and what it would be like kissing her. He decided that seemed like a nice idea. When he went to think about kissing a boy, his mind instantly went to Kurt and he blushed furiously, looking around his room, even though he knew he was alone. The idea of kissing Kurt made the butterflies that were in his stomach earlier move more frantically than they had in the living room. He decided that kissing Kurt would be a nice thing, too. Blaine let out a quiet sigh and decided that he didn't need to dwell on it too hard, since he had a while to figure it out. He could figure it out when he got a little older
