Blaine's POV:

I've been in love with Kurt Hummel since the first moment I saw him standing on that staircase in Dalton Academy. The instant he started talking to me I knew we would be connected in some way.

I love everything about Kurt. I love his eyes, such a magnificent blue. They're the kind of eyes that I could get lost in; spending hours staring into the blue abyss. I love his smile, when Kurt smiles at me, I feel important. He has the kind of smile that can make me feel needed for once in my life. I love Kurt's voice; it is so delicate yet so strong. When he sings, it's like nothing else matters but just watching him perform. I love his skin, so soft and fragile. I could hold his soft, small hands forever. But the thing that I love most about Kurt was his ability to love.

I've never seen anyone with an ability to love someone so truly and completely quite like Kurt does. He doesn't let people get close to him very often, because of a bad past, but when he opens himself up to someone, it's a magnificent thing. He devotes himself completely to whomever he's with, loving them as much as he possibly can. I know this because I'm Kurt's best friend.

That's all I am, his friend. Even though I want to be with him more than anything. I love him, but he doesn't- can't know it, mostly because I know he doesn't feel the same way. I'm positive of that fact.

The reason Kurt doesn't love me back is because he has a boyfriend. Chad. I'm happy for Kurt, I really am. It's obvious that he and Chad are blissfully in love. That's great for them! I honestly want Kurt to be happy, and if being with Chad makes him happy, I'll just have to accept that.

I'm still in love with him. That'll never change.

Kurt's POV:

I love Chad. He's a fantastic boyfriend, my first actually. He's kind, sweet, loving, cute, funny, and he's the one guy who's loved me from the start. I'm extremely grateful for such a perfect boyfriend. He takes me on romantic dates and buys me flowers randomly, just to make me happy. He holds my hand in the hallway and reassures me everyday how much I mean to him. I couldn't be happier! Moving to Dalton has been the best decision I've ever made! Not to mention, I have the perfect best friend too. Blaine is always there for me, no matter what. Any problem I have, I know I can go to Blaine and he will always make me feel better. He always knows exactly what to say; it's a talent. I don't know what I would do without him. He and Chad mean everything to me! They saved me from everything that was wrong in my life.

I don't believe in running from your problems, but when a bully pushes you around and gives you death threats, it's hard not to. I'm not proud of running, but I am proud of protecting myself. I owe that to Blaine. Had I not met him on the staircase that one winter day, I would still be bullied by that awful Neanderthal, Karofsky. Who knows what he could have done to me. If you think about it, I owe my life to Blaine. He's literally saved me.

Chad has saved me too. It started with a sweet smile across the classroom, or a flirty wink during Warbler's practice, but then it turned into more. It turned into coffee dates and whispered conversations. It turned into holding hands and stolen kisses. Without Chad, I wouldn't know what it's like to be in love with someone who loves you back. In fact, I probably would have given up on love all together. But I didn't because I met Chad.

Blaine's POV:
As I'm walking through the halls of Dalton I see Kurt and Chad walking hand and hand. Their heads are turned so that they have the perfect angle to see each other's face. Kurt is beaming, he looks happier than I've ever seen them.

A strangled sound comes out of my throat and they boys in front of me turn around to see what the noise was. Kurt smiles when he sees me. "Oh, hey Blaine! How are you?"

Kurt shows no indication that he's bothered by my presence so I decide to talk to the happy couple. "I'm fine. Ready for rehearsal today, guys?"
I hope Kurt doesn't notice the way that I always speak coldly to him when he's with Chad. I don't mean to be mean but my judgment isn't the best when I see the boy that I love wrapped up in his boyfriend. When we're alone our conversations are always warm and substantial, but that never happens around Chad.

Chad smiles at me. "Yeah, totally! I'm sure your solo will sound fantastic, as always, Blaine!"
God, why does he have to be so nice? No wonder Kurt's dating him.

I see Chad whisper something into Kurt's ear and Kurt giggles. Knowing that if I don't leave now, I'll do something I'll regret, I say to them, "Well, I better get going! I should warm up my voice before practice! See you guys later!" I throw on a fake smile as I say this. Then without looking back at the happy couple, I turn and practically run into the choir room.

AN: This is the first in what I expect to be a 20 chapter story. For once I actually have everything that I want to do in this fanfic all written out in an outline! The next chapters will vary in length, but will probably be longer than this chapter, for the most part. This chapter was mostly exposition. It gets more interesting, I promise! Also, I've never written a fic in first person before, so bear with me! Thank you so much for reading! Reviews are greatly appreciated! Klisses!
