He was unsure how exactly it had happened but the apartment in the Upper West Side that his paternal grandparents gave him at graduation was no longer just home to him. Suddenly the five bedroom, 5 and ½ bath property was home to:

Blaine Anderson

Sam Evans

Noah Puckerman

Santana Lopez

Nick Duval

Now, because Puck was living in the apartment that meant that Rachel Berry was also pretty much living in the apartment too. Then of course, Artie was living on campus at the New York Film School and Brittany was living on campus at Juilliard, so they were pretty much always in the apartment.

Somehow, it had become some soft of centre for all the Ohio alumni that were in New York (well apart from Kurt but that was a whole other story).

That wasn't even factoring in Sebastian (senior at Dalton), Kitty (Junior at McKinley High), Tina (freshman at Brown), Trent (freshman at Brown), Wes (Junior at Harvard), Quinn (sophomore at Yale), Thad (freshman at Yale) and Jeff (freshman at Yale) who visited whenever they had a long weekend and were able to get away. Blaine had been so excited when he had found out that Nick and Jeff had finally realized their feelings for one another. He just hadn't realized that that would mean Jeff and Wes were on a train every few weekends to crash in the apartment with Nick and Santana.

But somehow it worked.

And no one had to pay rent.

Puck and Sam had gotten jobs at the Diner which Santana, Rachel and Kurt all worked at, which had amused Blaine to no end when he had seen them when they came home from one of their first shifts. Neither Blaine or Nick had gotten a job and were instead completely focused on school, Blaine was at NYU studying Music while Nick was Pre-Med at Columbia.

None of their schedules ever seemed to match up but they had made a deal that every Sunday the group would have brunch together to catch up on what was going on in each of their lives.

When Blaine got home on a Friday in mid-October he was surprised to find Puck, Rachel, Santana, Sam, Brittany and Nick all sat in the living room talking. It wasn't surprising to find Rachel or Brittany at the apartment with them spending most of their time their when they weren't at school. Blaine had asked Rachel (knowing Brittany was required to live on Juilliard campus for her freshman year) why she didn't just move in as she was there all the time, it was closer to NYADA than her and Kurt's loft in Bushwick, it was in a better part of New York and was actually classed as being on Broadway so it was closer for her rehearsals for Funny Girl and she could ive there for free. But Rachel had said that she still had a couple of months left on her lease with Kurt and that she didn't want to just abandoned Kurt in New York all alone.

Brittany looked up when she heard Blaine enter the room, "Hey Blainey!"

"Hey Britt...what's going on?"

Santana grinned, "We are going out tonight hobbit..."

"Er...why? And how? We don't have any ID..."

"Me, Puck and Britt all have ID...and I found that ID that you got from Sebastian in your Junior year...I pulled something together for Rach, Sam and Nick this week...and yes I invited Artie but he has a project due on Monday...so what do you say Hobbit?"

"Err...I have work to do...but you guys go..."

Brittany blinked, "Blainey...please? We never properly celebrated Rach getting the lead in Funny Girl...so really you have to come...it's your duty as a best friend..."

Blaine rolled his eyes and sat on the sofa next to Nick, "My duty as a best friend huh?"

Brittany and Rachel just nodded at him. Blaine really did have work to do. He hadn't told any one else but he had secured a place in an upcoming show at NYU. It was rare that Freshman were picked to perform in any type of show, let alone one that was a prestigious as as the Fall Festival. The event was always host to some of the biggest names on the New York music scene; producers, record labels, other artists and it really was an honor that Blaine had bee picked to perform.

But he hadn't told anyone.

Well, he had told Sebastian.

But no one in New York.

Blaine had found out he was going to perform the same night that Brittany had told them she was had a solo dance in Juilliard's Winter show. He really didn't want to take away any of the attention from Brittany so he had kept quiet.

"So, Blaine...are you coming?"

Blaine looked around the group and knew that really he couldn't say no. Brittany and Rachel were looking at him with huge eyes, Santana was scowling at him while Sam and Puck rolled their eyes. Nick shrugged at his old friend and Blaine knew in that instant that they had all ganged up on Nick too to make him go out.

"Fine...okay...just let me get changed..."

Blaine disappeared into his room and stepped into his walk in closet pulling out a pair of dark skinny jeans and a white shirt. His look had become much more relaxed since dating Sebastian and even more so since he had started going to college. Bow-ties were no longer something that he was wearing at all times and the hair-gel was pretty much gone, his curls wild. He pulled on the clothes, ran a hand through his hair and rolled his sleeves up to his elbows. He then grabbed his wallet and keys and made his way back out into the living room where everyone was waiting.

Santana passed him his fake ID and then they were off. Santana linked up in between Nick and Blaine as they queued to enter the club, while Brittany and Sam; and Rachel and Puck were kissing in front of them. Santana just rolled her eyes as they followed the group into the club, with the bouncers barely paying any attention to their ID's.

They were in.

It wasn't long until they were drinking it up at the bar watching Brittany and Sam wrap themselves around each other and Rachel and Puck pretty making out in the middle of the dance floor. Santana rolled her eyes and returned her attention to Nick and Blaine. Both of the boys were getting a fair amount of attention from both men and women.

Not that that was surprising to Santana.

They both looked hot.

When Santana had first met the pair she would never have expected that they would be the ones getting all of the attention in clubs. When she was back in Ohio, it had been her with guys drooling over her but now her two male companions were the ones gaining the attention. It made her laugh that neither had any idea that the guys and girls that had pretty much surrounded them were flirting with them.

Blaine muttered into Nick's ear that he was going to get some air and dodged under the arms of his fellow clubbers to step out of the main throng of people. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone which had been vibrating steadily for the past 5 minutes. Noticing that it was from Sebastian, Blaine quickly answered his phone.

"Hey babe..."

"Blaine? Where are you?"

"At some club near Juilliard...is everything okay?"

Blaine could practically hear the smirk in Sebastian's voice, "You? Mr Dapper? Are in a club?"

"Haha...now answer the question Bas..."

"Sorry...you just threw me for a loop with the club...but it's not that important actually...I just missed your voice..."

"God I miss you...I can't wait til Thanksgiving when I'll actually get to see you..."

"Are you sure you don't mind me staying? I know the apartment will be pretty crowded..."

"I want you there...there is no way you are leaving me in an apartment where everyone else is getting off except for me...again..."

"You want something Killer..."

"Bas...I'm in a club..."

"Well...I'm laid on my bed shirtless with my..."

"I'll call you back when I get home..."

Sebastian chuckled, "I'll be waiting Killer..."

"I know you will..."
