A/N: Okay so this is going to be 6 one shot chapters, one each for each main character within the verse of "So No One Told You"; and is basically their first thoughts of the person that they ultimately end up being with in the end.
And I have to say it was pretty fun to go back and write from each point of view, as obviously during the course of writing the main verse, I knew the backstory and all that to it, and for length issues a lot was not written.
And I think it's also nice to see how the thoughts of those that ended up together, were over the years in regards to that person they ended up loving to be with forever came about.
The first one is Mikki's 'Perspective', and how she viewed Blaine from the first time she met him at Puck's first wedding; and I got to say that it was pretty fun to write, only because she is my OC and I am so at ease writing her.
So this starts back in 2009, which is a little after Puck and Santana married towards the end of 2008; and then takes place over the course of the rest of the story and how her feelings for Blaine over time became those of more then just a crush, to their friendship and then finally to love.
So please if you love it, leave a review; and definitely do fave or follow it so you know when the next chapter is up.
Thanks for reading and enjoy.
Love,
KJ xoxoxo
Sitting on her bed one evening, knowing that she should be indeed doing an upcoming assignment that was due shortly, she instead found herself chatting to Blaine once more on Facebook; and was surprised to find how easy it was to talk with that of her cousin's best friend; who ever since his adding her on Facebook after the wedding had struck up what she would call a somewhat flirty relationship with that of him.
Sending through a meme, to Blaine; Mikki laughed as he sent back a reply.
Yes that is pretty much it!
So you're admitting you think I am hot then?!
Well I'd be lying if I said otherwise. And for the record, you're so much better looking than that girl!
You know nothing can ever happen between us though. I wouldn't take my cousins threat to hurt you lightly. He was known to be a person who wasn't scared to throw a few punches in high school, and that was at people he'd call a friend.
As she sat back waiting to see the little reply bubble going, she noticed it didn't appear straight away, and let out a loud sigh.
"Way to go Mikayla" she said out loud. "Or more like thanks Puck"
"Okay, who are you talking to on there?" asked Jaime, her roommate at college and also a friend from Ohio; who like her had come to California University in Berkeley, which meant for the past four years they had been roommates.
Mikki looked over to that of her friend, and sighed. "Blaine"
"He's the guy from your cousin's wedding, right" said Jaime, standing up and going over to Mikki's bed and sitting down.
"Yep" replied Mikki, with a nod.
"And you think he is cute" said Jaime, with a smile.
"Oh come on Jai" said Mikki, with a laugh. "Even you said that he was when I showed you a picture of him"
"Well yes I did" said Jaime, with a laugh. "So what you don't think he could possibly like you in that way"
"I don't know, I'm pretty sure he does and I'm sure he's also been flirting with me" replied Mikki looking at her friend, and Jaime smiled. "It's just that I don't think even he did actually like me, he would ever act on it. You know Puck and the threats he use to give guys I dated when we were in high school"
"So Puck has told him, the old 'you have to stay away from my cousin, or I will hurt you' line" said Jaime, as she put on a gruff voice to mock Puck.
"Uh huh" replied Mikki, with a nod; as she quickly typed out another message to Blaine, seeing that he hadn't yet replied to that of her last one.
Do you not want to talk to me now? Did I say something weird?
"He can't do that your whole life you know" said Jaime. "If he doesn't like the person you end up with, then that's just tough luck on his part. You're not his property"
Mikki looked at her friend and nodded, as a reply popped up from Blaine.
'No you said nothing wrong. ;) I am just getting grilled by Puck and Santana as to who I am talking too. Puck doesn't know that we have been talking'
"You know what you're right" said Mikki, with a smile to her friend, and started typing a message back. "Puck does not tell me who I can and can't be with"
'So just tell them. We are allowed to talk you know!'
"I just told Blaine to tell him that we're talking on here" said Mikki.
"Good on you" said Jaime, with a smile. "I expected to be invited to your wedding"
"Yeah, let's not get too carried away there Jai" said Mikki looking at her with a laugh. "We're just friends"
"Yeah, for now" said Jaime, with a smile and stood up from Mikki's bed; and went back over to her.
Mikki looked at her friend, shaking her head and looked back to the computer screen with a smile.
He's getting all mad about us talking, isn't he?
And a reply quickly came back from Blaine. 'Wow, how did you know that? LOL'
Mikki laughed to herself as she typed a reply back to him, only to hear Jaime who was over on her bed again, start to sing.
"Mikki and Blaine sitting in a tree, k.i.s.s..." and Mikki picked up one of her pens that was on the bed with her textbooks, and threw it over at her friend.
"Hey" said Jaime, with a laugh.
"I hate you" said Mikki, with a smile.
"Hmm, but you want to right" said Jaime with a smile. "Do that to him and so much more"
Mikki looked at her friend, and then back to her computer as she continued to type, and Jaime went back to now humming the song; and for a little while longer Mikki continued to talk with Blaine; before she made the decision that she really did need to be focusing on her school work, rather than that of her crush.

After graduating college, and thinking of possible places to now base herself in the area of work that she would want to be working in; the one place that she couldn't get out of her mind was that of New York City. The thought of living in the busy city that had a reputation for never sleeping, was so appealing; and after speaking with Puck about possibly staying with him for a while whilst she interviewed for jobs that she had applied for, it was all set and she left behind the sunny skies of California where she had spent the past four years, to head over to the city of New York, the now place of residence for not only her cousin Puck and now wife Santana, but that of Blaine also; who she still spoke with on a very regular basis, and had definitely now had that of an interesting if not sometimes very flirty relationship with.
The flight from California to New York arrived in to Newark Airport at two o'clock in the afternoon; and after collecting her baggage from claims, she headed out to hail a cab to take her to the apartment where she would for the time being, be residing on the sofa there.
In her discussions with Puck, prior to arriving; he had advised her that he would leave a spare key on the top of the door frame of the apartment; and when she headed up the six flights of stairs to apartment 20, she put one of her bags down and reached up on her tip toes to grab the key that had been left.
Opening the door around an hour after getting a cab from the airport, and then picking up the bag she had placed down; she walked inside and then put both of them down near the kitchen table, where there was a note from Puck.
Grabbing the note, she put the spare key down and quickly read over it.
Hey Mikki Mouse,
Welcome to New York City!
Sorry I can't be there when you arrive, but work prevails. Anyway, I will be home around 4.30 as will Santana. Blaine, who I am sure you also remember (especially since I am lead to believe that you have been talking with each other on Facebook?!) will also be home probably a little earlier at around 4pm.
So make yourself at home, there is soda as well as food in the fridge and you can help yourself to whatever you want.
The top bedroom in the apartment up on the stair rise is Santana and mine's, and the other one is Blaine's; and Santana has said if you need to change clothes, and don't wish to do this in the bathroom or the living area (and I will tell you right now there is to be no nakedness anywhere in the living area!), then you are quite welcome to use our room.
See you later today, cous!
Puck xx
Mikki laughed as she placed the note back down on the table, and went over to the fridge and opened it, grabbing out a can of diet root beer; and then sat at the table, grabbing her cell phone out of her handbag and quickly texting a message to her parents that she had gotten to New York and also that of the apartment okay, and she would contact them later on to talk.
Opening up her messenger app, where she could see there were a few messages, she read over them; the first one being from Jaime, who for the past four years had been the person that she had lived with whilst in college.
Hey Mik, hope you got to NYC okay. I am so jealous, right now! Being that close to that many Broadway plays! Anyway have heaps of fun, keep me updated; and remember you're now in the same city as that hottie you like! So go get him girl! Talk with you soon, hugs and kisses. Xoxo
Mikki laughed as she typed back a reply to her friend.
Hey Jai, yes I got here okay; and am now at Puck's apartment. So weird being here in the city, just the cab ride over to the apartment from the airport, there was so much traffic! I will make sure to upload a photo of every Playbill from every show I go to, you know just to make you jealous! ;) And I'm not going to jump, the hottie, as you like to call him, first chance I get! However tempting that may be! I don't even know if we are any more then that of friends that talk occasionally on Facebook at the moment, so I will just give it maybe a little time and see what happens! Anyway, I will talk to you soon and let you know all the deets of what is happening! Miss you! xoxox
Pressing send on the message, she quickly went to the next one that had come through and saw that it was from Brian, who she still had a close friendship with and laughed as she read over his message, whilst quickly taking a drink from the can of soda.
Start spreading the news, she wants to be a part of it, New York, New York! ;) Hope you're having fun miss mouse! Miss you! Cali won't be the same without you here! And remember you owe me some Comic Cons! Love you, talk soon, Bri xxxOh I will be part of it Bri, just you wait! New York ain't going to know what hit them! Miss you too! So strange not being in the same state anymore, considering we've been pretty much inseparable our whole lives! You know you are always, always welcome to come and visit me here, of course I have to get a job first, but if I do, you are more than always welcome to come and hang out with me; and it better be for a Comic Con, because I can't think of anyone I'd rather go with! Love you heaps, talk soon, Miss Mouse xxxooo
Mikki laughed as she sent the message and then put her phone back into her handbag; and pulled her hair around looking at the ends of her hair.
"Okay I have airplane grime" said Mikki, with a laugh to herself. "I really think I need a shower"
Quickly finishing off the soda and placing the empty can into the recycling, she picked up her handbag as well as one of her bags; leaving the other one near smaller one which was her carry on luggage bag near the kitchen table, and headed into Puck and Santana's room to put the bags in there for the time being; before heading to the bathroom to take a much needed shower.
#PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES#
After having a long hot shower, and washing her hair; wrapping herself in a towel and that of her a hair turban around her wet hair, she opened the door of the bathroom and went to walk out. However upon opening the door, she saw that the television was now on and that Blaine was sitting on the sofa.
Okay you can totally play this to your advantage Mik she thought to herself, and gave out a little shriek.
Blaine quickly turned his head, looking at Mikki clad in just a towel. "Hey. Wow, umm sorry"
Mikki just smiled as her turned back around and then quickly walked over to where her other bag still was.
"Excuse me" she said, as she then deliberately walked in front of the television that Blaine was now looking at, before heading into Puck and Santana's room.
Closing the door to their room, she quickly dried off herself and then grabbed some underwear, a pair of cut off denim shorts and a t shirt out of her bags; and put them on.
Walking out of the bedroom again, and back over to the bathroom; she gave Blaine a quick smile as he looked at her as she came out.
Placing the wet towel that she had used, as well as the one that she had used for hair in the hamper; she quickly borrowed Santana's hair dryer and gave her hair a quick going over to rid it of some of the dampness.
She exited the bathroom, and walked over to one of the chairs in the living area; and sat down.
"Hey" she said, looking to Blaine. "Sorry about before, I guess I didn't realize what the time was"
"Umm no, that's fine" said Blaine, looking to her. "I've seen Santana in much less"
"Really" said Mikki, as she twisted her hair up into a messy bun and wrapped the hair tie that she had around her wrist into her hair. "Does Puck know this"
"Yes, he knows" said Blaine, with a laugh. "And considering Santana often walks out of her room in just bra and a thong, you will probably see as well"
"Well thank you for the warning" said Mikki, with a laugh.
"Yeah" replied Blaine, with a smile. "So guessing you had an okay flight?"
"It was a plane" said Mikki. "It took off from Cali and landed in New York"
"Funny" said Blaine, as Mikki nodded.
"But yeah it was okay, it got me here" she replied. "The bigger hassle was trying to get a cab at the airport, New Yorkers are so pushy"
"Yeah tell me about it" replied Blaine, with a laugh. "The number of times I have hailed a cab, only to have some ignorant asshole push me out of the way and get in themselves, well let's just say too many times"
"Hmm, guess I'll just have to learn how to be an ignorant New Yorker too" said Mikki, as she pulled her legs up underneath herself on the chair. "That's if I get a job here"
"I have every confidence that you will" said Blaine, with a smile.
"What become an ignorant New Yorker?" asked Mikki.
"No" replied Blaine, with a laugh. "Get a job here"
"Oh" replied Mikki, with a laugh also. "It would be pretty great to live and work in New York, I must admit"
"It is great, believe me" said Blaine, with a nod. "I like your shirt by the way"
Mikki looked down at the shirt which read "Just a wizard girl, living in a muggle world. Took the Hogwarts train, going anywhere"; that she had put on and laughed.
"Yeah, Bri bought it for me the last San Diego Comic Con we went too" she replied.
"Comic Con" said Blaine. "You don't strike me as the type who'd go to something like that"
"Are you kidding me" said Mikki. "I totally love going to stuff like that, been to like the last three in San Diego"
"Three years running?" asked Blaine. "How did you ever manage to get tickets three years in a row, they're like so hard to get. My brother Coop tried to one year, and failed"
"Well I didn't get them" replied Mikki, with a laugh. "Bri was the one who got them, and I just gladly go along with him and the others he gets tickets for"
"Wow" said Blaine. "So Bri is, your boyfriend then?"
"When have I ever mentioned having a boyfriend? She wondered looking at him, and then shook her head with a laugh. "No, he's one of my oldest friends though"
"Who you went out with?" asked Blaine, looking at her.
"No, never" replied Mikki, shaking her head. "Is he maybe jealous?"
"Well that's good" replied Blaine.
"Really?" asked Mikki. "Jealous, check. I guess the crush is not as one sided as you thought"
"I don't mean good, as in good you're single" said Blaine. "Just that, long distance never really works"
"Right" replied Mikki, with a laugh. "So what about you, do you have a girlfriend at the moment?" "Please say no, because I don't want to be fighting a losing battle at the beginning here if you are with someone"
"No" replied Blaine, shaking his head. "I am depressingly single at the moment"
Mikki looked at him and laughed. "Well we'll be depressingly single together"
"Sounds good" said Blaine, with a laugh. "And at least I have someone else to talk to now beside that of Puck and Santana"
"Well I'd like to think I am a tad more fun than that of my cousin and his wife" replied Mikki.
"I'm sure you would be" said Blaine. "Gives me someone to hang out with now on weekends, whilst they are doing coupley stuff"
"It does" replied Mikki, with a nod. "And as someone as who has lived here in New York for a while now, I totally insist that you be my tour guide then" "And if that doesn't make you notice me, then I don't know what the hell will"
"I can do that" replied Blaine, with a smile. "And since tomorrow is Saturday, I think a tour of some of the best spots around New York is definitely on the cards"
"Sounds like a plan" said Mikki. "It's a date"
"Umm a, a date?" stuttered Blaine, looking at her.
Mikki looked at him and smiled. "Well not as a date in a date, but two people in the same place on the same calendar date"
"Oh right, of course" replied Blaine with a laugh. "I knew what you meant"
Mikki looked at him and nodded. "He's so cute, when he's nervous"
"So don't eat anything for breakfast tomorrow morning" said Blaine, with a laugh. "Because I know this great place that has the most amazing cronuts"
"We'll just see about that" said Mikki, with a laugh. "There was this amazing place in San Francisco that I went to when there with some friends, oh my god they were to die for"
"Bob's" said Blaine.
"Huh?" asked Mikki, looking to him.
"The place in San Fran, Bob's Donuts; is that the place you're talking about" replied Blaine.
"Yeah" replied Mikki with a laugh. "I keep forgetting you're from there, so you'd know all the best places there as well"
"Yep" said Blaine, with a laugh also. "Bob's was like the go to place for cronuts and coffee; and basically anything else sweet"
Mikki laughed. "Well hopefully your place here in New York, lives up to that of Bob's"
"It does" replied Blaine, with a nod; and the two of them continued to talk until to Puck and Santana returned home to the apartment.

To say she wasn't happy when Rachel and Puck got together would have been a lie; but there was also a part of her as well that was in ways mad about it too.
For years now, she knew that Puck had always told Blaine to stay away from her as a best friend doesn't go near that of the cousin; yet that is what he and Rachel had done.
And when she casually tried to drop hints to Puck about it, he wasn't seeming to get what she possibly meant about best friends hooking up with cousins, he just kept asking if she was okay with this, and then proceeding to tell her that if she wasn't well it was just too bad because he liked being with Rachel.
One Thursday evening whilst Rachel was out with Puck; Mikki was sitting on her computer, talking with that of Jaime, who after college had stayed living in California where she was working as a script writer, telling her the events of the last few weeks.
So he just brushed it off and said too bad, he's in a relationship with Rachel and you have to deal with it.
Mikki gave a laugh as she saw the message from that of Jaime, and started to type back.
Yeah, I mean double standard much right? Does, in a way; the one thing he always tells Blaine that he can't do, and that is cousin/best friend hook up.
Mikki grabbed her can of soda, and took a drink from it as she saw Jaime typing back a reply.
Well just start something with Blaine then. Puck can't tell you not to do that now, when clearly he has done the same thing.
Putting the can of drink down back on to the side table next to her, she started to type back.
You know I would want nothing more then something to happen between Blaine and I. It's just I don't know how to go about doing that, we've been friends for so long now, how do I move us out of that friend zone.
As she hit send on her message to Jaime, the apartment door opened; and Blaine and Sam entered.
"Hey guys" she said, looking at them. "Have you come to raid my fridge again for food?"
"No" replied Blaine, going over to the armchair in her apartment and sitting down. "We were thinking of grabbing some pizzas, and thought maybe you want in"
"Umm sure okay" replied Mikki, with a nod and saw that there was a reply back from Jaime.
So unfriend zone yourself from him. And I'm not saying that you shouldn't be friends with him anymore. Just make some kind of subtle move, drop hints that you're single and ready to mingle! ;)
Mikki laughed as she started to type back a reply to Jaime.
"Who you talking with?" asked Blaine. "Do you have a boyfriend Mikayla Kapowski and not told us about it"
Mikki quickly looked at him, shaking her head. "No, I broke up with Nick remember"
"Hmm okay" said Blaine, from where he was seated. "Just thought maybe you still had something casual going with him"
"No" replied Mikki shaking her head again and quickly giving him a smile. "Someone's jealous"
"So what three pizzas then?" asked Sam.
"Yeah, that be good man" replied Blaine. "Mik, you okay with that?"
"Uh huh" replied Mikki, and hit send on the message that she had typed back to Jaime.
He's just actually walked into my apartment. And before you say anything, nothing will be happening; because Sam, his roomie is also with him. They've come over to ask if I want pizza and I guess to also hang out. So still in the friend zone for now, but you're right I need to find a way out of it; and to hell what my cousin thinks! Talk to you later, Jai. Miss you heaps! Xx
Mikki sighed as she went to log out of her Facebook account, but then saw a little emoji face pop up in reply from Jaime and then the message back that followed.
Ohh watch out Blaine, when Mikki wants something she gets it! I'm sure you'll come up with a great plan soon, and remember I want an invite to the wedding! ;) Miss you too, we'll talk soon; you know where I am when you want to vent about your annoying cousin! Xx
Mikki laughed, not replying again and closed down her Facebook account and then shut down the lid of her laptop and placed it down on the coffee table.
"Pizza's be here in about twenty" said Sam, coming over to where she and Blaine were, and sitting on the sofa.
"Awesome" replied Blaine, and looked to Mikki. "So you got any movies we can watch"
"I know of one" said Sam, with a smile.
"We are not watching Avatar" said Mikki, with a laugh.
"Again" added Blaine, and Mikki looked at him and nodded.
"I have that scary one with Dan Radcliffe in, we could watch that" said Mikki. "I haven't had the courage yet to do so"
"Yeah, that one looks good" said Blaine.
Mikki looked at him and nodded and went and loaded the DVD up and they began a start on the movie, whilst waiting for the pizzas to arrive. However as they watched the movie, her mind was clearly that of removed from what was taking place on screen; with thoughts of how she could ultimately get out of what seemed to be that dreaded 'just friends' zone with Blaine.

Getting to the bar where Sam was working, the two of them walked inside, and found Sugar sitting at a table, with a drink.
As they spoke with Sugar about what Sam, was doing at the bar; they didn't notice three scantily clad girls walking towards them, and making a stop near where they were.
"Hmm, keeping the new stripper meat to yourself there girls" said one of them looking at Blaine and then Sugar and Mikki.
Blaine turned and looked at her, as did Mikki and Sugar who both knew the type of girls these three were.
"I'm not a stripper" said Blaine, looking to the girl who had spoken
"Oh do you prefer erotic dancer, because that can work too" said another girl, and Mikki looked at her shaking her head.
"Umm no neither actually, I was just here to see my friend who works the bar" replied Blaine.
"Friend, so what you're gay then" said the first girl who had spoken.
Realizing that it these girls were clearly on the prowl, Mikki made the decision to step into that of the conversation. "If a guy has to be gay to be in a male strip joint, then what does that make every male that works here"
Blaine looked at her and put his arm around Mikki. "Right and I really don't think my girlfriend would approve of me working in such a place".
Mikki looked at him, upon hearing that; actually just liking hearing Blaine call her that, and she decided to play along with the ruse. "Hmm that's right the only one he is going to be stripping or dancing for is me"
The girls that had approached the table laughed, and the girl who had yet to speak looked at them. "She's your girlfriend, really"
"Yep" replied Blaine, with a nod then turned to Mikki and kissed her.
Momentarily hesitating for a moment, Mikki knew that the only way to get these girls to back off was to play along, and then willingly kissed him back, both of them getting very much lost in the moment together, as Blaine pulled her in closer towards himself and Mikki let her fingers play with the hair at the nape of his neck. "Blaine is kissing me, oh my god. Please don't ever stop"
"Okay, well you're a lost cause then" said one of the girls as Blaine and Mikki who weren't even remotely listening to them now continued to kiss, and she walked off, quickly followed by her friends.
"You can stop that now, they've gone" said Sugar with a small laugh, and tapped Mikki on the arm.
Mikki reluctantly stopped kissing Blaine and looked at Sugar and laughed.
"Well good" said Mikki, with a laugh; however thinking in her mind it was anything but that since she now had no reason to kiss Blaine again without it being not a ruse. "Actually definitely not good, I could literally kiss him forever"
"Yeah" said Sugar with a laugh as well, looking at Blaine who in turn was just looking at Mikki.
"So umm, I'm going to go and get a drink. Talk with Sam" said Mikki.
"Can you grab me a beer?" asked Blaine, looking at her.
"They don't serve beer here" said Sugar.
"What do they serve?" asked Blaine, looking to that of the other girl.
"Cocktails, those sort of things" replied Sugar.
"Okay, get me a scotch on the rocks then" said Blaine, looking to Mikki with a smile.
"Sure thing" she replied with a nod and walked over to the bar.
As she walked over to the bar to talk with Sam, she couldn't help but think to herself how amazing it had been, to have what she had wanted for so long; and only wished there could be more, but since Blaine was currently dating Tina, she knew that at the particular moment it wasn't possible; and made a vow to herself to make Tina look more and more like the type of girl that he should not be with, because now nothing was going to stop her from getting what she wanted.
#PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES#
The next day, after work and in desperate need of a coffee, Mikki headed to the Kurt's.
Opening the door and walking inside, she saw Tina was just leaving and gave out a small sigh as she gave the Asian girl a smile.
"Oh hey Tina, you leaving?" she asked, looking at her.
"Uh huh, bye Mikki" said Tina, and quickly walked out of the coffee shop.
"Okay, bye then" replied Mikki with a laugh, shaking her head and walked over to the sofa and sat down, next to Blaine.
"You know I honestly don't think your girlfriend is ever going to like me" said Mikki, not that she ever wanted Tina to be that of her friend.
"She's not my girlfriend anymore" replied Blaine, looking at him.
Mikki looked at him, surprised at this statement, especially when only last night she had made the decision to make Tina look bad to him. "Did you break up?"
Blaine nodded and Mikki looked at him with that of a friendly smile. "Wow, I'm sorry"
"Don't be, I'm not; because as nice as Tina was I didn't actually see a future with her to be honest" said Blaine, as Mikki tried not to smile at that. "And I kind of got the feeling, well I know now from what she just said to me, that she did see it that way"
"Well, you know your friends are here for you anytime you want to vent about the joys of being single" said Mikki. "Or you know do other stuff with, particularly me, like kissing me again because I certainly won't complain"
Blaine laughed. "Well except for Puck and Rach, got a feeling we're probably not going to see them without one another any time soon"
"Definitely not, however Sam, Britts and me; we are there with you in the wonders of single life" said Mikki, with a laugh; thinking she would possibly kill Brittany if she ever tried to start dating Blaine.
"Thanks" replied Blaine, with a laugh also.
"And thus, this should be a lesson learned in to the not so great side of online dating, people can put whatever they want on their profiles and make themselves sound wonderful, when in reality they are nothing like they actually make out" said Mikki.
"Well Tina, didn't lie exactly on her profile" replied Blaine.
"Hmm, well if you want to meet any single girls, let me know. I have a few friends who I think you might like" said Mikki. "Not that I would ever set you up with them. I don't want any of them anywhere near you ever"
"Thanks but I think I will just stay single for a bit" replied Blaine.
"Well when you do, let me know" said Mikki, with a smile, trying to possibly get the hint across to Blaine to consider a relationship with her. "And for now just take comfort in the fact that you have some amazingly awesome friends, like me for example, that really don't care if you have some weird obsession with superheroes or Star Wars"
"Or Harry Potter?" questioned Blaine, looking at her with a smile.
"And I'd have a problem with Harry, because?" asked Mikki, with a laugh as Blaine gave a laugh also.
"You know what, I think the two of us need to be having a movie night" said Mikki.
"Sounds like a plan" replied Blaine.
Mikki nodded. "Yep, in fact we haven't got through all the Star Wars from a few weeks ago".
"How about we do that tonight then" said Blaine.
"What?" asked Mikki.
"Finish off Star Wars" said Blaine.
"Sure, why not" replied Mikki with a laugh, and the two of them left the coffee shop to go and finish off the other movies they were yet to watch, and she couldn't help but think maybe getting to where she wanted to with Blaine wasn't going to take that much convincing on his part either.
#PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES##PERSPECTIVES#
Over the course of the evening, of which just prior to Blaine had ended things with Tina; he and Mikki were sitting on the sofa of her apartment, watching the fifth Star Wars movie; and sometime after them having eaten pizza and a had a few drinks, the two of them had over time in the night; gotten closer and closer to one another on the sofa.
Blaine's arm had come to rest around her shoulder, Mikki's head resting on that of his shoulder also; and ultimately seeing her fall into that of a small slumber
As the movie came to its end, Blaine who was still awake; grabbed the remote and switched the movie off and then looked at Mikki with a laugh.
"Hey there sleeping beauty" he said, tapping her on the nose.
"Hmm, yeah" muttered Mikki.
"I'm kind of in need of my arm back here" he replied.
"Uh huh" said Mikki. "I'm comfy though, you're nice and squishy"
"Squishy" said Blaine, with a laugh.
"Yes, you're my squishy" she replied, as and she more or less with her free arm hugged him by moving her arm to that of his waist.
Blaine looked at her and laughed, and tried to move her slightly from that of his shoulder.
"Hey" said Mikki, opening her eyes and looking at him and also moving away. "You're a mean squishy"
"Yeah I am" replied Blaine as he stretched his arm a little, now that it was free of Mikki.
"When did I fall asleep?" asked Mikki, looking at him.
"About half way through" replied Blaine, with a laugh. "So for like an hour and a half, I've pretty much had a dead mouse attached to me"
"Hey, no mouse jokes" said Mikki poking him, but also couldn't help but laugh as well.
"Yeah, well you my friend" said Blaine, poking her back. "Just kind of slump when you sleep"
Mikki looked at him and laughed. "Well you're obviously comfy to slump on"
"Yeah must be" replied Blaine, with a laugh also and stood up. "So I should get going back across to my apartment"
Mikki looked at him and nodded. "Okay, well hopefully you had some fun tonight, despite the mouse falling asleep on you"
"Yeah" replied Blaine with a laugh as Mikki stood up also. "I think being around that of one of my good friends tonight, was just what I needed"
"Well you know where I am" said Mikki. "Anytime, I'm always here for you"
"I know" replied Blaine, with a smile and wrapped his arms around her in a hug. "Thank you"
"Hmm" said Mikki, as she smiled to herself and hugging Blaine tightly back, not wanting to let him go.
"Mik" said Blaine, with a laugh. "Kind of hard to move when you're attached to me"
"So take me with you then" she replied with a laugh. "I certainly have no complaints"
"I think I like my sleep too much, to have something that is almost like a koala attached to me" said Blaine, with a laugh.
"You're loss" said Mikki, as she let go of Blaine. "I'm sure you wouldn't even know I am there"
"I'm sure I would" replied Blaine with a laugh, as Mikki unwrapped her arms from him. "Because you're a clingy drunk"
"I'm not drunk" said Mikki, looking at him with a laugh.
"Well you're not entirely sober either" said Blaine, with a smile. "Go and get some sleep"
"Hmm, you're sure you don't want to come sleep with me" said Mikki. "Be my squishy"
"No, I think you'll be right sleeping on your own" said Blaine.
"You're just no fun at all" replied Mikki.
"Right" said Blaine, looking at her. "Get some sleep, I'll see you tomorrow"
"Sure, see you tomorrow" said Mikki.
"Night" said Blaine, as he headed over to the door.
"Yeah night" replied Mikki, and Blaine left her apartment.
Mikki gave out a sigh as she picked up the empty pizza boxes and bottles of beer that they had drunk and headed over to the kitchen area; and placed them in the recycling bin to take down in the morning, and then headed over to her bedroom to go to bed, and she couldn't help but think maybe she was delusional in thinking Blaine had any feelings for her, before getting ready for bed and going to sleep.

When Puck and Marley made the decision to marry in Canada, it meant all of them were also heading to Canada for that of the nuptials; with the exception of Rachel who had decided to not go and watch her ex boyfriend marry another woman.
Looking over to where Puck and Marley were talking with Jake and Ryder, Mikki sipped on what was probably her fifth or so drink that night, although only one of them had been that of the alcoholic variety as she knew that if she let herself, she would in fact drink more than she could handle and be hung over at the wedding tomorrow, so had kept to drinking mainly soda water.
"You might want to ease up on the alcohol there Mikki" said Blaine, walking over to her and she looked at him quickly deciding to grab another glass of wine as the waiter walked past.
"Why" she replied, looking at him.
"Well I don't think your cousin will be impressed with you if you're drunk at his wedding tomorrow for starters" said Blaine.
Mikki looked at him and a plan started forming in her head. "So he thinks I have been drinking. I can work with this"
"Yeah well I'm celebrating" said Mikki, with a quick smile to him, and took a long sip of the wine.
"Celebrating what exactly? Because to me it kind of looks like you're just drinking" said Blaine.
"I am celebrating Noah getting married to a girl he hardly knows and also that I will never ever find someone, so this other peoples weddings is the closet I will ever get to one, and because of that I decide to therefore drink" said Mikki.
"Okay you've had enough" said Blaine, taking the glass from her and placing it on a table behind them.
"Hey, that's mine" said Mikki, going to grab it again.
However Blaine grabbed her hands before she could and she looked at him. "Hmm okay Blaine, you're move"
"You're an amazing woman Mikki and any guy would be lucky to have you" said Blaine.
Mikki looked at him and scoffed, thinking to herself that he clearly was not getting any of her hints.
"Yeah right, if that is so. Then why am I still single?" she asked.
"Because maybe you just haven't found the right guy yet" replied Blaine.
"I have come to the conclusion there are no such people in existence" said Mikki, looking to him with a half smile. "Not entirely true, because you are that person"
"You don't believe that there is that one person out there for everyone, that one person who is the one for them" said Blaine.
"Yeah I do. I'm talking to him right now" she thought, but knew that she wasn't able to just come blurting that out, and shook her head instead.
"No, because how many times do people get divorced and remarry; or become a widow or widower and then also remarry, and say they found true love twice or however many times. If true love was indeed real, it would be with only one person and one person forever no matter what happens" she replied.
Blaine looked at her and gave her a smile. "I think underneath all that hostility about romance that you have, you are truly a romantic and do believe in it".
"Yeah, well whatever the case. I have given up looking for it. If my prince charming or whatever wants to find me, he has to do all the work" said Mikki. "Seriously get the hint here Blaine. Do I have to be spelling it out for you, that I like you"
"Well I'm sure he won't give up looking for you" said Blaine.
"Yeah, I'm just going to head to bed. This rehearsal is really depressing me" said Mikki, realizing that he was not getting anything of the not so subtle hints that she was trying to drop to him.
"Okay, I'll see you at the wedding then" said Blaine.
"You will" replied Mikki, with a smile and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Night" said Blaine.
"Yeah night" replied Mikki and left the rehearsal dinner to go back to her hotel room, leaving Blaine and all the other guests behind; wondering when and if, she and he would ever go past that of their friendship relationship.

The evening of what was meant to be Puck's wedding to Marley, that didn't go quite to plan; was also meant to be that of a fun one for Mikki and Blaine, after much to that of her surprise even though they had both said it was just a one time, or rather a few times thing; that they had done last night, was suggested by Blaine that they do again this evening, and she for one was definitely not going to disagree with the thought of being able to get close to him in that way again.
However after he had shown up at her hotel room, along with a bottle of wine for the two of them to share; she had to tell him, that since Rachel who was clearly upset over the events of the day was in her room along with the other girls, that they would not be doing what they were wanting to do again that night.
Since Kitty and Brittany were in a two single room; Mikki reluctantly offered for Rachel to spend the night in her room, so that she was maybe able to get some sleep; and having the brunette girl over on the opposite side of her bed, was certainly not how she had imagined her evening panning out.
As they both lay in bed, Mikki who was still awake; could hear the sniffling sounds of her best friend, clearly still upset over what had happened, and she just wanted to yell at her to shut up and tell her the world is not all about her, and she actually did have plans for that evening but now because of what had happened they weren't going to eventuate and maybe probably never would there be any chance of it being something that would happen again now.
Closing her eyes with a sigh, Mikki couldn't help but think about how amazing last night had been, how her body was so responsive to that of Blaine's and the way he made her feel; and how she knew she made him feel, and then thinking how much she hated her cousin for his major fuck up of names, which prevented from getting close to Blaine again.

The morning after, Brittany and Sam had come around to visit and Blaine had blurted out that the two of them had kissed back when he was still dating Tina; the two of them were lying together wrapped up in one another's embrace before their three children would be up and creating havoc for them.
"How you feeling this morning, Squishy" asked Mikki, as she snuggled in closer with him; knowing it might not have been the best thing to do as she could potentially get sick also, but not really caring about that possibility.
"Hmm, better" said Blaine, kissing her on the forehead. "And I'm sorry for blurting out yesterday that we kissed back then, to Sam and Britts"
"So they know" replied Mikki, moving a little and propping herself up on an elbow and looking at him. "All I know is that night I got to kiss you that night, and believe me it was not bad"
"No it was not" he said, with a laugh and gave a quick kiss on the lips. "Because kissing you, gave me the courage I needed to end things with Tina"
"Hmm, but yet you still kept us in the friend zone" replied Mikki, with a laugh and kissed him, now not caring at all that she could possibly catch the cold that Blaine had.
"Yes, well we all know why we both kept it just friends for so long" said Blaine, looking at her.
Mikki looked at him and nodded. "You remember that night that we did, you know finally get together?"
"Remember?" asked Blaine, with a smile. "Believe me Michi that is one night I will never forget"
"Hmm, me either" she replied, with her own smile. "But there is something that I may never have told you, or anyone actually to be honest"
"And that is?" asked Blaine, looking at her.
"I wasn't even remotely drunk" she replied. "I'd had like two very small glasses of wine, and the rest of the time was drinking soda water"
"Michi" said Blaine, with a laugh. "You don't think I already know that"
"You knew" said Mikki. "How?"
"I've seen you drunk, over the years sweetie" he replied. "And when you're drunk you get sleepy and become overly cuddly, and you were definitely not that, that night"
Mikki laughed. "So you knew all these years, that I had orchestrated all that and never said anything to me"
"Hmm, I did" replied Blaine, kissing her. "But that's not to say there was nothing I wasn't planning on my end either"
"Oh really now" said Mikki, looking at him. "And just what were your plans Mr Anderson"
"I was planning to ask you out" he replied. "I just didn't know how, or if I'd ever have the courage to do it; but that night I just made the decision to kiss you, and I'm so glad I did"
"Well you just should be glad for my, shall we say evil plans to lure you to my room that night in Canada" said Mikki, with a laugh. "And also that you had the courage to make that move to kiss me"
"Oh believe me I am" said Blaine, kissing her. "Even though we both adamantly said the morning after, that it was something that should stay there in Canada"
Mikki laughed. "Yeah I cursed myself for saying it when I did"
"Same" replied Blaine, with a laugh. "And that is why I tried to do it again with you on the plane home, after we tried and failed to the night of what was supposed to be the wedding, because I knew that I couldn't let you go now; after being with you in that way I knew there wasn't anyone else I ever wanted to be with"
"I was so scared, you thought it was just a one night stand" said Mikki. "That you had got what you wanted, to sleep with me once and then be done with it"
"No" replied Blaine, shaking his head slightly. "I had for so long wanted to be with you, but there were things in our way"
"Like that of my cousin" said Mikki, with a laugh.
"Yes" replied Blaine, with a laugh also. "But I think he finally realized that we're good for one another"
"We are" said Mikki, quickly kissing him. "I just wish I had the courage to tell you I was in love with you much sooner"
"How much sooner was sooner?" asked Blaine.
"Sometime after we started talking to one another when I was still in college" replied Mikki.
"Really?" asked Blaine.
Mikki nodded. "Yeah, you were just this amazing guy that I could talk with about anything, and laugh with; and I'd never had that with any guy before who I hadn't known for my whole entire life and was definitely that of just a friend"
"Like you and Brian, and the friendship that you two have" said Blaine.
Mikki looked at him and nodded, quickly kissing him also. "Yes, Bri is very much like another brother to me, and I was never remotely interested romantically in him. So you have nothing to be jealous about there with him and me"
"I'm not jealous" said Blaine.
"Sure you aren't sweetie" said Mikki, with a laugh and quickly kissed him.
"Okay maybe a little" replied Blaine. "But you chose me and that's all that I care about"
"I did choose you" said Mikki, with a nod. "I think even not really knowing that I did before I moved to New York, it was as if destiny played a part in my moving here"
"So you were in love with me even before you moved to New York" said Blaine, with a smile.
"Not like I am now, because now I love you in so more ways than I did back then" she replied. "But I was kind of smitten in love, yes; which then over the years definitely grew to be secretly in love with you"
"Hmm" replied Blaine, quickly kissing her. "I started to fall for you when you moved, not saying that I didn't like you when we were talking whilst you were still in California; but once you came here I actually got to see how incredible and gorgeous you really were"
Mikki looked at him. "And yet it took both of us so long to work up the courage to be able to tell one another; and instead we chose to annoy and tease one another"
"Yeah, but that was done out of love" replied Blaine with a laugh. "And I wouldn't change a thing about how we got to here"
"Me either because all I care about is that we got here in the end" said Mikki, kissing him.
"Uh huh" replied Blaine, kissing her back. "You know we could be on Canada time now, if you want"
Mikki laughed and kissed him. "I could be possibly be on time for that"
"Yeah" replied Blaine, with a smile and kissed her.
Just as they were about to start to do what they wanted to do, they heard two voices calling out to them as Madison and Mason ran into the bedroom.
"There goes that plan" said Mikki, with a laugh and quickly kissed Blaine.
"Hmm, there is always tonight Michi" said Blaine, with a laugh, as Madison and Mason climbed up on the bed.
"Mommy, Daddy" they both said, jumping on the bed and on them.
"Come here you little munchkins" said Blaine, pulling both of them down to him and Mikki; each of them hugging one of their children.
"And Blaine" said Mikki. "We have forever with one another"
Blaine looked at her and smiled, quickly leaning over and kissing her also. "We do"
It may have taken them both time, back in years gone by to get where they were today; but one thing was for sure in the end they were each other's forever.
End Note:
I hope you enjoyed seeing that little look into how Mikki viewed Blaine within this verse, before they became to be where they are by the end of the main verse. And there is a link of the picture on Tumblr, that Mikki sends through to Blaine, which I think giving the circumstances with Puck is quite funny; so do definitely check that out. The link to my page is in my profile.
I should hopefully have the next one up soon; which will be Blaine's, which is almost nearly finished.
I have created another timeline for myself, heading backwards to at least 2005; which makes it much easier for me to know what I should be having where as I go back to some past events that weren't written before, but I kind of know them in my head; I just need to however know exactly whereabouts I am writing.
Anyway, I will hopefully have another chapter of "For Good" up soon, I am just trying to work something out in my head for that; and also I am trying to get back into the flow of "Lost Girl" as well. So do keep an eye out for these soon; best way is to put me on author alert, so you will see when any new story or chapter does indeed pop up on here!
Until next time, thanks for reading.
Love always,
KJ xoxoxoxo.
