Author Note: I know this one is a bit weird but I was watching this show and thought, what if Kurt was married? Then I thought and what if Blaine was a rock star? I'm also crediting Blaine's band and Kurt with writing some songs they most certainly didn't write. There are St Berry references, you have been warned! So, please don't kill me for going a bit mad, R and R.
Chapter One
Home Again
"New York City," Puck slapped Blaine on the back and laughed "We're back baby."
Rolling his eyes, the small boy turned to Santana "Happy to be back Lopez?"
"Working it, Warbler, working it," she replied, being the only one of them with a spouse, she was forever glued to her blackberry so she barely glanced up as they walked through the airport. There were five of them in the international rock sensation: The Eternal Believers. They were Blaine Anderson, Charlie Briggs, Carolyn Lindsey, Noah Puckerman and Santana Lopez-Piers. Yep, over the last few years they had climbed right to the top of the show business ladder, they were the biggest thing to happen to rock music that century.
With a yawn, Charlie flung an arm around Carolyn "How's Brit, Santana?"
"She's great, thanks," the Latina replied, un-phased by the flash of the cameras which were starting to come at them from all sides.
Smiling, Blaine looked round at the others "How's about we give the press something to photograph?"
"I like the sound of that," Carolyn grinned, pulling a pair of drumsticks from her back pockets and tapping out a rhythm.
Puck had already whipped out his guitar and was strumming out some chords while Charlie had set up a keyboard and was playing his part. With a wink at Santana, Blaine rushed to take the centre stage "You could have a change of heart,
If you would only change your mind
Instead of slamming down the phone girl,
For the hundredth time
I got your number on my wall,
But I ain't gonna make that call
When divided we stand baby,
United we fall."
With Puck in the back-up, Santana tucked her phone in her pocket to stand at Blaine's side "Got the time got a chance gonna make it
Got my hands on your heart gonna take it
All I know I can't fight this flame
You could have a change of heart,
If you would only change your mind
Cause I'm crazy 'bout you baby,
Time after time."
The two of them danced together, keeping it slow but intimate "Without you
One night alone Is like a year without you baby
Do you have a heart of stone
Without you
Can't stop the hurt inside
When love and hate collide."
"I don't wanna fight no more," Santana appealed, looking as though she might actually cry as she paced away from Blaine "I don't know what we're fighting for
When we treat each other baby,
Like an act of war."
Trying not to let his mind wander back to the night he had left Kurt and how similar Kurt's expression had been to Santana's now, Blaine followed her "I could tell a million lies and
It would come as no surprise
When the truth is like a stranger,
Hits you right between the eyes."
"There's a time and a place and a reason," Santana walked a circle round Puck as she sang "And I know I got a love to believe in
All I know got to win this time..."
Blaine pulled Santana into his arms and the two of them sang to each other again "Without you
One night alone Is like a year without you baby
Do you have a heart of stone
Without you
Can't stop the hurt inside
When love and hate collide."
"You could have a change of heart," he took her hands and held them over his heart "If you would only change your mind."
Shaking her head and avoiding his gaze, she sang "Cause I'm crazy 'bout you baby...Crazy...Crazy!" She pushed him away and strutted away.
"Without you," he followed her on his knees "One night alone
Is like a year without you baby
Do you have a heart of stone?"
Turning round to belt back at him, she gestured wildly "Without you
One night alone
Is like a year without you baby
If you have a heart at all!"
"Without you," Blaine climbed to his feet and took her hands as they finished "Can't stop the hurt inside
When love and hate collide." As they finished, everyone watching went wild and the band turned to them for a bow.
Charlie laughed "And that is how you wow a crowd."
"We have to stop these impromptu performances," Puck commented as he packed his guitar away.
Faking a smile, through thoughts of Kurt, Blaine shrugged "What can I say, I'm a Warbler, it's in my blood."
The streets of New York were a dangerous place when you were a celebrity but Blaine was very good at not looking like a celebrity so he could pass by without much fan harassment. As he passed a theatre with the name "Rachel Berry" written in lights above the door, he stopped and smiled. Beside him, someone sighed "That's my wife."
Blaine glanced up "Jesse? Jesse St James?"
"The one and only..." he trailed off, raising his eyebrows "Blaine Anderson?"
Smiling nervously, Blaine nodded "Not so loud though, you have no idea what happens when someone realises it's me."
"Yeah, Rachel has the same problem," Jesse nodded "Bloody hell, I haven't seen you in years."
With a chuckle, Blaine nodded back "Yeah, I know, how's Rachel doing?"
"What, apart from staring in a Broadway musical?" he laughed "She's fine, Kurt's been a god send for her, you know, what with him writing musicals just for her."
Slowly, Blaine smiled, he'd forgotten that Kurt was one of the biggest writers on Broadway right now, it made sense that he'd be writing for Rachel "How is Kurt?"
"Fine," Jesse shrugged "I don't know much actually, Rachel's the one he's close to, not me but, from what I've heard, him and David are very happy."
In his pocket, Blaine's phone buzzed, absent-mindedly, he mumbled "Carolyn."
"You should probably get back, right?" Jesse asked.
Swallowing, he sighed "It's been nice seeing you, send Rachel my love."
"And Kurt?" Jesse's tentative voice stopped Blaine as he was leaving.
With a shaky breath, Blaine turned back "There's no need to mention me."
"Understood."
