I know it's a rubbish name, but I just want to put this up tonight and see what happens.
It's not finished yet, but it will be soon.
I hope you enjoy. :)
It was early afternoon and Kurt was bored. Mercedes had come round the night before and stayed over, they had had a wonderful time, but she had left now. They'd stayed up until God knows when, crying with laughter, trying on outfits and watching videos on youtube, but all too soon she had left the next morning for New Directions, Kurt's old Glee club practice. Of course Mercedes had invited Kurt to practice, but he had gently said no, he was going to see the guys tomorrow and he wasn't prepared to see them perform together without him so soon. He'd left McKinley High three months ago, and been home every other weekend since, but he had managed to put off actually going to a glee practice. He went to dinner and saw his friends, and although everything at Dalton was going well.. very well in fact, Kurt didn't think he was ready.
Kurt got up from the sofa he'd been sitting on and wondered into the kitchen, he thought about starting to plan dinner, but then he remembered that Carol had said he's planned ahead for dinner tonight. He didn't mind, it was kind of nice to have someone to take care of things like that, a change from his fathers constant suggestions of take out.
Kurt stopped for a second. For once the house was completely silent, in all the visits Kurt had made since transferring, he had never had a minute to just be alone in his house. The Glee club were always there, or Finn and Rachael were arguing, or even singing, sometimes it would be Burt and Carol making the noise, cooking or talking, but there had never been just silence. Kurt couldn't work out whether he liked it; in a way he missed his busy dormitory in Dalton.
Kurt was listening so intently, that his phone beeping in the living room startled him.
He walked over the coffee table and picked up his buzzing phone, it read.
One New Message:
From: Blaine
Hey Kurt, I'm in the area and I was just wondering if you're free, whether you wanted to do something? X
Kurt smiled, Blaine was his closest friend, he'd helped Kurt through a lot and through that they'd become very close, even staring a room together at Dalton.
Funny thought Kurt, Blaine lived over two hours away and rarely left Dalton at weekends anyway. He wondered what he was doing in the area, but Kurt hit reply and sent
To: Blaine
Yeah sure, what did you have in mind? : ) x
Kurt got a one-word message in return.
From: Blaine
Swimming? X
They exchanged a few more texts arranging where and when to meet, and then Kurt put down his phone. What was he doing?
He hated swimming. The chlorine dried his skin and hair, to mention nothing on the hygienic side of public baths.
No, Kurt was not the type to be seen down at the local baths. And yet here he was, worrying about what swimming trunks to wear.
And he had agreed to go with Blaine. Kurt wondered why he was sure that had he would have said no had Mercedes or Finn asked…he was probably in a courageous mood or something.
The next twenty minutes pasted in a blur of panic, finding swimming trunks, adding too and changing his outfit, and doing his hair.
The doorbell shrilled through the house, Kurt dropped his hands from his hair and rushed to the door. He took one last look in the hall mirror and took a deep breath.
On his doorstep stood Blaine. He was wearing his hair loose, like he always did on the weekend. His face bore a wide grin.
'Hey'
Blaine said, as he crossed the space between the two boys and developed Kurt into a deep hug.
Kurt inhaled Blaine's distinctive smell; it made him feel safe, the smell of washing powder, shampoo and…Blaine.
In the car the boys chatted, caught up on the last few days in which they hadn't really spoken. Blaine told him a few stories of what he'd been missing at Dalton and Kurt filled Blaine in on seeing Glee club. At one point Kurt asked Blaine what he had been doing in the area, but Blaine suddenly became very vague and said he had needed to pick something up or something, but before Kurt could press the matter further they arrived at the baths.
Blaine turned off the ignition and hoped out of the car, but before Kurt could open the door, Blaine had rushed round and opened the door. He smiled and flourished his arm to signal to Kurt to step out. Kurt giggled and hoped out of the car. Just then Blaine's phone went off, he looked at the text and his shook his head, half laughing and half sighing.
At Kurt quizzical look, Blaine said 'Wes'
This seemed to explain things to Kurt and he took Blaine's outstretched hang, and together they walked hand in hand into reception.
Soon to be finished.
