Hey, so this is basically my first fanfic aside from a Facebook fanfiction I made around 2 years ago. I don't know whether to make this Huntbastian or seblaine yet, but here's the first chapter and you decide. Reviews are always appreciated and basically motivate me to continue the story :)
The story takes place right after Blaine finds out about the Warblers taking the steroids, so after Naked. Most things are canon, but not everything.
After New Directions practice, Blaine went to the Lima Bean for his daily cup of coffee. He knew everyone there pretty well because he went there so frequently, and made small talk with the employees. When Blaine was about to sit in his usual seat, he realized that it was occupied by Sebastian, of all people. He looked different than he usually did. Instead of having that cocky smirk he always seemed to have on his face, he looked somber, a bit like he did when he apologized to Blaine that day. He quietly asked," Can I talk to you for a second?"
Blaine responded, "Sure."
Sebastian asked," Who told you about the steroids?"
"Trent did. And I thought you turned over a new leaf, why did you do it in the first place?"
"First of all, not everyone took the steroids. I didn't, because I didn't need to."
"Well why did Hunter do it?"
"Truthfully, I don't know. I didn't think it was too good of an idea either, but that asshole has his ways of convincing people to do crazy things. Kind of like me."
Blaine couldn't help but laugh. "I see, so when the old Sebastian finally 'turns over a new leaf' this new Sebastian comes in."
Sebastian chucked. "No, he's way too much of a prude. He probably doesn't even know what Scandals is."
Blaine had an incredulous look on his face but Sebastian could tell that he was trying not to laugh.
"Kidding. He's actually a pretty cool guy, as long as you don't put Splenda in his latte. Of course I learned that the hard way.
"Knowing you, you probably purposely put Splenda in his latte just to piss him off."
"No comment," Sebastian said with his trademark smirk.
After a pause that felt like forever to Blaine, Sebastian had the somber expression once again, and said," Look, I know that the Warblers probably deserve to get disqualified, I won't lie about that, but it's shit that Hunter has to go to court when I got away with slushying you. He's actually a really good guy, but everyone fucks up once in a while."
Blaine responded," Is he going to get expelled?"
"They're considering it. I'm trying to find a way to get him to stay, but the other Warblers aren't too keen on him, and I don't know what to do," Sebastian admitted.
Blaine had never seen Sebastian look so…vulnerable. He always seemed to have a confident air with him, but the Hunter thing was affecting him much more than Blaine thought. Maybe they were really close friends? Blaine would think they were dating or something, but first of all, this was Sebastian we were talking about and second, Hunter blatantly stated that he "wasn't even remotely bi-curious." But there's no loss in asking.
"Were you guys really close?"
"I'll deny it if you tell anyone this, but yeah, we were. He was basically the one guy that got me to put my shit together after picking me up a few too many times at Scandals at two in the morning." He sadly chuckled. "And now that's my job now."
Sebastian and Hunter seemed a lot like brothers. He could basically picture them arguing over everything and couldn't help chuckling a bit at that image. So much time had passed already and Blaine was surprised that he had a whole conversation with Sebastian without any sexual comments. But Sebastian did seem a bit more serious today because of Hunter.
"I actually agree with you. As you could tell, I've always believed in giving people second chances. And from what you've told me, Hunter actually doesn't seem like a bad guy."
"He really isn't. He's just a bit misunderstood."
"Neither are you."
Sebastian smiled, a genuine smile for the first time in awhile. Blaine had finally forgiven him for good. Sebastian still felt so guilty though, for taking advantage of such a kind person. He usually never felt this way, he manipulated his way into life, but lately things have changed.
"Thanks. I know I've messed up in the past, but I turned over a new leaf, remember? No more bullying, blackmail, or assault this year."
"Well that must be boring for you."
"Yeah, it is. But at least there's Hunter to piss off. Nothing pisses him off more than messing up the dorm."
"So you guys are roommates? I'm surprised you haven't tried to get him into bed! Oh wait never mind, he did say he wasn't even remotely bi-curious.."
"Do you honestly think I haven't? At least I was successful."
"Wait what?"
"Not even remotely bi-curious my ass, right? And it wasn't even a one-time thing."
"But I thought Sebastian Smythe only did one night stands?"
Even though Blaine was joking, Sebastian realized that Hunter had changed him in a way. They weren't even dating. They were more like fuck buddies, but they have been considering taking things to the next level. And with the possibility of losing Hunter, Sebastian realized that he was in love with Hunter. He understood him like nobody else did. God I'm beginning to sound like a hormonal thirteen year old, Sebastian thought.
"Hunter's different."
"Wait so are you guys going out or…"
"It's a bit complicated. We both want to, but you do realize that Hunter is still in Narnia right?"
All Blaine could think of was Santana and Brittany when he heard Sebastian.
"You know, this reminds me of this situation my friends Santana and Brittany were in."
"Wait, you mean Sha-Queer-A? Hunter and I both feel insulted by being compared to them of all people."
Blaine rolled his eyes. He forgot that Sebastian and Santana probably despised each other after the whole Smooth Criminal incident last year.
After sighing, Blaine began," Brittany wanted them to be a thing, Santana was still deep in ther closet. But things weren't too great for her. You know Finn, he's a good guy but he accidentally outed her after he had enough of her insults. It was really hard for her, but they actually overcame it. They're still together."
Unsurprisingly, Sebastian missed the point," Frankenteen? The guy I photoshopped last year? I know I turned over a new leaf and all, but you have to admit those pictures were pretty good."
Blaine sighed loudly, "That wasn't the point. But honestly, I hope things work out for you and Hunter. And hopefully he won't get expelled. Everyone needs love at some point."
Sebastian smiled, showing he appreciated what Blaine said. He then asked, "So you and Lady Hummel still a thing?"
Thinking about Kurt still made him sad. But if Sebastian opened up about Hunter, Blaine might as well tell Sebastian the truth. It was odd how, when Sebastian wasn't flirting with Blaine or spying on New Directions, he was actually a really cool guy to talk to. And not to mention super hot, even though he would never admit. Because he loved Kurt, and Sebastian loved Hunter. He wasn't surprised that they were an item. Leave it to Sebastian to turn around the straightest of guys.
"No, and it's all my fault."
"Honestly I doubt that. What could you have done?"
"I cheated on Kurt. With a guy from Facebook, of all people! I'm a terrible person, and I lost the one thing I had in my life."
"Blaine, everyone makes mistakes. I would know. But why?"
"I felt abandoned. Kurt never had the time to call me anymore, he was busy every time I tried to all him. We had basically no contact for months, it was as if he forgot me. I was so lonely, and I didn't know what to do."
"stop blaming yourself so much. Anyone would do what you did, and he's an ass for not having the "time" to even call you. You deserve better."
"But Facebook! Of all things!"
"I have to agree with you on that point. Why didn't you call me up instead? Now that's what I'm wondering."
"You would have been busy with Hunter anyways."
"Yeah, busy being lectured."
"Whatever you say. You probably would have shut him up."
"In the one way I could," Sebastian said with a wink.
"Look, I have to run. But it was nice seeing you, Blaine. Drop me a sext maybe?"
"In your dreams, Sebastian."
"But of all seriousness, leave me a text or something."
"I don't see why not. Good luck with Hunter."
"I can't believe I'm saying this, but good luck to you with Lady Gaga."
Blaine rolled his eyes but smiled.
Sebastian returned to his dorm after coffee, when he saw a distraught Hunter. Sebastian reached out to Hunter, and asked," Why the sour face?"
"Piss off, Sebastian."
"No seriously, what's up. And don't give me that I'm fine bullshit."
Hunter sighed deeply, before saying, "I just can't believe they found about the steroids. I'm screwed if I get expelled."
"Look Hunter, you made one mistake. A big one that is, but then I slushied Blaine in the eye with rock salt last year. And considering I'm still here, I doubt you'd get expelled."
"Yeah how did you not get expelled?"
"They let me off with a 'last warning', they'll do the same for you as well."
"Are you sure? I have to go to COURT, for Christ's sake!"
Hunter looked so distraught, and Sebastian wanted to just hug him and tell him everything was going to be alright. Because he knew exactly how Hunter felt. While he never would admit it, he felt like his world was crashing when he found out that Blaine had to get surgery. When he realized that he screwed up for good, and there was no turning back.
"Look, you're Hunter Clarington. You're cocky, you're demanding, and a bit of an ass, but you're strong and considering all of the Ohio delinquents you'll be let off. And you made one mistake. Trust me when I say everything will be fine."
"Wow Sebastian, you always know how to make me feel better."
"You know it. What do you say about going to Scandals and forgetting this mess?"
"No way. And you're not going either. I had to pick up your drunk ass a few too many times from that place. And watch what you say when you're drunk."
Oh shit. "What do I even say?"
"Basically about how much you 'need your Hunty'. I would be laughing if I didn't have to drive all the way over to scandals when I have to recharge."
"I don't say that. No way."
"I'm taking a video of the next time I have to pick you up."
"You're just trying to get me to stop going there, right?"
"Maybe…"
"I haven't been there in a month!"
"I have to give you something for that. Wow, I actually forgot the mess I'm in for a few minutes."
"Look Hunter, you were the one that picked me up almost every night at scandals and sat by me as I puked my guts out. I'm cringing too because I sound like a girl. But I have to give you something for that. And you're getting out of this mess, and trust me when I said I've already sweet-talked the headmaster into not getting you expelled."
"And that actually WORKED?"
"For me it did. And considering you're a straight-A student with a perfect record, I don't see why it wouldn't work."
Hunter was surprised at how much Sebastian cared. He always believed Sebastian was using him for sex or whatever, but to see how Sebastian went to such lengths to keep Hunter in school was crazy. What he felt wasn't one-sided. And the way Sebastian told Hunter everything made it seem like everything would be fine for once.
And on complete impulse, Hunter kissed Sebastian.
Sebastian and Hunter had hooked up and much more several times, but it was usually Sebastian who initiated it. Rarely was it Hunter.
And this kiss was different, it had more passion?
But Hunter definitely realized for good that he liked Sebastian. Maybe even loved him. And that he wasn't using him for sex or anything.
.. so this probably sucks. But I really like where this fic is going :) And it will probably be Huntbastian endgame with some seblaine. And Niff. Lots of it. Klaine will end up being endgame too but I won't go into it much. Review and comment so I can update soon! :) I probably won't be able to update until this Thursday/Friday because finals. Ugh. I still haven't been studying for them and they're in 3 days. Which is why I sometimes hate fanfiction...
