Chapter One "A New York Life"

Saturday night was Blaine Anderson favorite day out of the week. He got out of work early which meant he could go pick Kurt up at the train station, go grab something to eat or went straight home, watched some crap tv while cuddling on the couch or engaged themselves in some more strenuous activities knowing they could sleep in the next morning. Oh yes, Saturday was his favorite day ever.

" Earth to Blaine" said a voice next to his ear "Your table is asking for coffee"

He turned around to face a pretty read headed girl "Don't do that" he said making her laugh as he took the coffee pot from her hands and got to work.

Blaine had been living in New York City for almost 5 years now, at the beginning living at the Julliard Student dorms and then, after he was able to find a part time job that let him save enough money to pay for a little apartment with Kurt. Studying and working was not an easy thing to do but he had managed. Those 5 years had been the best ones of his young life…and of course Kurt was one of the main factors.

"Ah, are you thinking about your sweet actor?" asked the girl the moment he got back to the counter

"What make you say that?"

"Oh please, you look all happy and sparkly"

"Maybe is just my dashing personality, Ann"

"Keep telling that to yourself Anderson" she said punching him slightly on the arm "You know I am happy for you both"

Blaine smiled at her words; Annaliza Ryan had been his coworker and a dear friend ever since she started working at the Café almost two year back "But you better don´t congratulate yourself just yet"

"Haven´t you ask him already?"

He looked away a bit embarrassed

"Blaine Anderson!" said she in an indignant voice "I am disappointed"

"Hey, it is not that easy, you know"

"All right" Annalize said taking away his notepad "You are officially off the clock, go pick your lovely boy and I swear if you haven't asked him by the time I see you again you will be sorry"

Blaine looked at her with a smile playing on his lips "But I still have 30 minutes left"

"I will take care of Paul" she pushed him half way through the door "Off you go"

Without another word, he gathered his belongings and left. That particular night was nice; the weather was perfect for a late August night. As he walked the distance between the Bistro and the Train Station, Annaliza´s words ringed in his head. It wasn´t that he was a coward, far from it if he said so himself, but even considering the idea of taking such a step had took him almost six months, he had been carrying the damn thing everyday ever since. As he waited for Kurt´s train to arrive he asked himself the reason why he hasn't done it: he was an utter sap and had worry so much trying to find the perfect moment that maybe he just missed said moment. But as the train arrived and Kurt stepped out with that bright smile of his, the brunette thought He is worth perfection

oooOoo

Blaine sat at the dinner table in their apartment, it was the same one he and Kurt rented together for the first time, they had planned to move out to a bigger one once Kurt started to get acting jobs but as time passed they fell in love with the place. It was a tiny thing: just one bedroom with an attached bathroom, a half bathroom, a living room/dining room and a kitchen, all this in a back alley building only a couple of train stops away from downtown. It was not much but it was their home

"Garlic?"

Blaine looked up from his computer screen to look at Kurt who was cooking "What?"

"I asked you if you wanted extra garlic in your pasta"

"Sure"

Kurt smiled as he turned his attention back to their food. Blaine had been acting strange for the past month or so, not that Kurt was worried, all the years he had spent together had taught him to read the guy so even if Blaine, indeed, was worried it was probably something so bizarre only Blaine could understand. He took the plates to the table "Put that away, time for dinner"

The dinner went relatively quiet as usual, each telling the other how their day went. After eating and taking care of the dishes, they cuddled on the sofa while watching mindless Saturday television.

"So" said Kurt as he enjoyed Blaine´s fingers massaged his hair while he was lying on a pillow on his lap "Do we have any plans tomorrow?"

Blaine kept his eyes glued to the screen "No, do you have something in mind?"

"Not really"

"We will think on something" Blaine assured him as he bent to claim his lips in a sensual kiss, the upside down position was bound to make his neck hurt in the morning but all that was forgotten as one of Kurt´s hands found his way up and cupped his cheek. Things were getting heavy when the phone rang.

"Leave it" said Kurt, dragging his boyfriend´s face back again and Blaine was more than willing to do it but the insistent ringing was beginning to give him a headache This better be good he thought as he reached for the phone "Hello?"

"Hello there Anderson" said a merry voice

"Ann?" asked the man, shocked

"The one and only" she laughed "You sound a little out of breath, did I interrupt something?"

Blaine pinched the bridge of his nose "Yes" he looked sideways to Kurt who was looking back at him with a curious expression "What can I do for you?"

"OH my God! Did I just cock-block you? Oh dear lord, I totally did, didn't I?"

"Annaliza Ryan"

"Don't "Ananliza" me; I called to know if today´s sacrifice was worth it"

"No" he looked back at Kurt who was now surfing the channels with barely concealed laughter "Look Ann, I can´t do this right now"

"How dare you? You do not deserve to have hot, steamy sex with your cute, steamy boyfriend"

That made him blush to the roots of his hair "I will talk to you on Monday" he hanged up "GOD!"

That made Kurt break into laughter

"Hey!"

"I am sorry babe it's just…" he kept laughing for a couple of minutes until he was calm enough to talk "What was that all about?"

Blaine blushed again but said nothing

"A secret it is, I like it" Kurt crawled the short distance from his side of the sofa to Blaine´s "Do I need to make you talk?" he asked as he let his hand rest over Blaine´s stomach "Or maybe make you moan" he muzzled the side of his neck, making Blaine´s whole body shiver with want "I think I prefer that one better"

And as Kurt all but attacked him, Blaine made a decision, tomorrow, he would break the question then.
