Sorry it took so long to put this chapter up but I had to re-write it a couple of times. There's not much plot in this one because I wanted to but the base for the story that's coming up, so bare with me because the next chapter will have more ooomph in it lol I put line breaks in this chapter I thought it would be easier because I needed to include the two couples in but they were in different places but at the same time. If that makes sense lol, well enjoy anyway. Oh there are a couple of songs in this chapter to but they were relevant for the story line here. :0)
Chapter 2
"Kurt look I'm sorry ok?" Blaine pleaded his face begging for forgiveness as he followed his boyfriend across the quad. Kurt marched off in front of him refusing to talk or even acknowledge his boyfriend trailing behind him. Kurt had woken up alone this morning having chucked his boyfriend out of his room last night, yea ok he had missed him terribly, but he was still angry with him so he pushed those feelings away. He had ignored his calls and texts last night and couldn't believe he had the gull to turn up at his door this morning. Kurt was still upset with him he couldn't believe that he would actually... ugh he didn't want to even think about it.
Blaine jumped in front of Kurt trying to get his attention "Come on babe, I hate it when you're upset with me.." Blaine whined as he put on his best puppy eyes hoping it would make his boyfriend forgive him, or at least talk to him.
"With good reason Blaine" Kurt said as he stopped and crossed his arms glaring at him "I can't believe that you 1. spilt your coke all over my floor while dancing to the new coca cola add, and 2. That you had the disrespect to mop it up with my white... white Armani scarf" Kurt shouted as he shook the coke stained article in Blaines face.
"But.. it was the closest thing I could reach and I didn't want it to soak in to the carpet..." Blaine said as he scrunched his face as Kurt started to literally change colour, Blaine could of sworn steam was coming out his boyfriends ears.
" Just move... I need to calm down before Warblers practice tonight and get this fixed!" Kurt said as he pushed past his boyfriend storming off towards the entrance of the school. "And do not even think of following me or sitting next to me tonight, and my room is of limits for the next 3 days. I do not want you any where near me until I get this sorted... And I hope they can get this out or help me god Mr Blaine Anderson, you will pay" Kurt shouted over his shoulder as he finished his full on rant.
"Shit!" Blaine said to himself his face fallen as he started to pull at the loose thread of his Blazer, his eyes wide he swallowed trying to push his fear away as he heard Kurt use his full name. He was so in the shit!
Wes sat at his desk in his dorm room trying to concentrate on the project in front of him. Every now and then he would slip his eyes to David who was lying on his bed throwing a tennis ball at their wall, he watched him for a moment before rubbing his eyes as a headache started to form behind his them. The constant thud, thud, thud was starting to beat in time with his head, he needed to get this project done and this wasn't helping!
"David seriously quit it!" Wes snapped as he tried to get his boyfriend to stop the constant banging, he'd already asked him 4 times and his patience was waning.. "I'm trying to work, I'm behind as it is and that is not helping!"
"My dorm too I can do what I like" David stated as he continued his relentless throwing of his ball. Wes frowned at him David had been like a bear with a sore head lately and Wes had had enough. Wes stood and marched over to David, snatching the ball mid air, he walked back towards his desk placing it beside him. He picked up his pen, sighing as he tried to get back to the work at hand. He was so far behind he would need to work late into the night to just catch up a quarter of what was due, and he still had Warblers practice. It was his own fault though because he had been so busy doing other stuff that school work kept being put last.
It will so be worth all this hassle Wes kept repeating to himself.
He rubbed his eyes again trying to ease the throb in his head, he paused as he felt a breath ghost his ear. His breath hitched automatically at the familiar warmth, God he had missed that. Wes slowly turned his head to find David leaning in close to him, he was so close that Wes could just lean in and kiss his soft lips, God he had missed those lips!
"Don't. Touch. My. Ball." David said his voice steady and calm but the tone sharp as he reached for his ball, picking it up slowly. Wes's heart flipped, it made him feel uneasy, and not in a good way. Wes frowned at David as he watched him walk away, falling back on his bed he continued his thud, thud, thud.
What the fuck was that? Wes thought to himself, It was the first time in all the time, in all the time that they had known each other that David had made him feel, uneasy! Ok things had been strained between them recently but that was the second time this week that David had made him feel like this. He couldn't put a name to it but he felt sick and it worried Wes.
Wes couldn't escape the feeling that David was pulling away from him, no matter what Wes did it never seemed to make him happy, Wes had no idea what he had done wrong. It had gotten worse since the night that Kevin and Jeff had returned, that's when things between them had become very strained.
Wes had come up to their dorm a little while after David, having stayed behind to talk more with Kevin and Jeff at Warblers practice, to find that their beds were no longer pushed together. David had pushed his bed back to its original position telling Wes that he got to hot when they slept next to each other as Wes drapped all over him and he wasn't in the mood to be boiled alive tonight. This had really confused Wes because David always said he was cold so he needed to wrap Wes around him for his heat.
That was 3 days ago and David still kept their beds apart, when Wes had mentioned it he would just tell him to stop suffocating him and to stop nagging him like a girl.., he didn't want or need a wife. This had stung Wes because he did not nag, and he was not like a girl, and he certainly was not a wife!
Wes turned around in his chair and just watched his boyfriend, well if he was still his boyfriend. That's when it hit him like a ton of bricks, the reason why David had been slowly pulling away from him the last few weeks and it scared the life out of him. He had been moody and down right rude to him, and were the bedroom department came into it, well there was pratically none, and when they did become intimate with each other it was basically wham bam thank you mam.
"Do you want to break up with me?" Wes whispered his voice small and full of worry. David caught the ball holding it in the air as he fell silent as if he was contemplating Wes's words.
"No" he simply said his voice void of any emotion as he resumed the ball throwing, hitting the wall harder with every throw. Wes swallowed as he watched his boyfriend his answer to his question didn't soothe him. As he sat watching David Wes became more agitated, his project forgotten his thoughts went to his boyfriend, the constant thudding made it heard for him to think straight. He stood and started to pace the floor of their dorm, his forehead furrowed through panic and worry as his heart felt like breaking. Wes stopped and slowly turned to face his boyfriend once more, well he hoped he was still his boyfriend.
"Are you breaking up with me?" Wes asked his voice hitching as he tried to control any tears that may fall as he feared the answer. David stopped throwing the ball and sat up, he looked over towards Wes his face revealing nothing.
Blaine sat nervously on the couch in the Warblers room waiting for Kurt to arrive, he started pulling again at the thread on his blazer absently. He wasn't listening to anything that was going on around him as he just stared intensly at the door. He held his breath as the door was pushed open, breathing out he sighed with a mixture of relief and disappointment as he saw David walk in and take a seat next to him.
"Where's Wes?" Blaine asked him as he realised that he wasn't with David. Wes was usually the first one here, he said that it wa his duty to be here ready when everyone arrive being head warbler, but he was late, really late. Blaine frowned at him as David just shrugged his face impassive as he looked towards the door.
"You two had an argument again?" Blaine asked his friend, he was concerned as all they seemed to do lately was argue. He'd asked Wes what was wrong but he didn't know just that David was always snapping at him lately.
"Leave it Blaine" David said as he kept his eyes locked on the door, Blaine noticed that David fidgeted nervously everytime the door opened. He held his breath again, then breathed out, again, then back in as Wes walked in followed closely by Kurt. Blaine didn't notice the hurt look that Wes gave David or the way David's body tensed as he watched Wes take a seat next to Jeff. Blaines eyes were focused on his boyfriend, well he hoped Kurt was still his boyfriend, walking over to him. Blaine kept his eyes fixed on Kurt as he moved up allowing him to sit in between David and himself.
This is a good sign Blaine thought to himself a Kurt leant slightly on his shoulder.
"What's up with David and Wes?" Kurt whispered to Blaine as he looked between Wes and David, neither boy looking at each other. Blaine didn't know if he was forgiven or not so he fought the urge to wrap his arm around Kurts shoulders and pull him in tight. Kevin had said on his first night that he wanted a more relaxed atmosphere where people can just be who they are, so if they wanted to cuddle boyfriends etc then that's fine but keep it U rated. He also got rid of the head table so Wes now mingled with everyone else more.
"Don't know why?" Blaine whispered back as he looked at Kurts face, taking the advantage while he was turned away from him as he looked at David, he slipped his arm around Kurts shoulders.
"Wes looked like he's been crying... What do you think David's done?" Kurt asked as he moved closer to fit into Blaines arm, he didn't even realise he was doing it. Blaine smiled to himself giving himself a mental high five.
"I can hear you two you know" David said as he turned to look at the two now embarrassed boys sitting beside him, his face not revealing anything he might be feeling.
"Sorry mate it's just..." Blaine started to say before he was cut off by Kevin's loud shout.
"Quiet ladies" Kevin shouted grinning as the Warblers started whinging at being called ladies. "okay okay sorry gents" Kevin smiled as he bowed slightly in appology. "I hope you are all ready for tonights practice" He said as he clapped his hands together, Some of the lads shouted that they were always ready to get their groove on, while others said that they'd rather be playing the new Halo Reach game on their PS3.
"Well as much as I enjoy a good game.. I tend to kick Jeffs ass every time..." Kevin said as he turned to grin at his brother.
"Hey only because I'm still recooperating and you cheat by making those faces putting me off" Jeff interrupted bouncing on his chair as he imitated Kevin playing the Halo. Everybody burst out laughing at Jeffs antiques, even Neil couldn't help but smirk which didn't go unnoticed by Kurt who smiled knowingly.
"Yea yea any like they believe that" Kevin said enjoying the banter and sight of Jeff laughing and joking with his new friends, a vast contrast from the last few years where he kept himself to himself and suffered in silence. Kevin didn't want to dwell on those thoughts he wanted to think of what was to come for them both. The next hurdle was to get Jeff to agree to change his last name to his, then everything would be complete just like his parents wanted.
"Alright boys, settle back down now " Kevin said as things started to get a bit over excited, the one thing that did catch his eyes though making him frown where the two boys sitting apart. David looked impassive as he sat quietly on the couch next to Kurt and Blaine, Blaine had his arm around Kurt as he leaned into him. And Wes, well he looked heartbroken, his eyes fixed to a spot on the floor in front of him lost in his own world. He wandered what had gone on between them, he had a lot of respect for Wes and he hated seeing the boy, who can be as animated as Jeff sometimes, be so quiet.
"Right for our first proper practice I'm giving you free range on your song choices, I want everyone to have a go. Even if you haven't sang solo before, just jump up here and try it." Kevin said as he walked over to the piano as excited whispers flowed through the room. "I want you to feel free to express yourself, maybe a a song that represents something that happened that changed your life for the better, or worse. Something that you might need to get off your chest but don't know how to say what you feel, so sing it!" Kevin said as he spread his arms out towards the boys.
"What anything?" Thad said from the back off the room as he let a mischevious grin fall on his face.
"Well within reason for example no swearing" Kevin said pointing his fingers towards Thad as he raised his eyes looking around the room "I want you to think about the words in the song, think about their meaning"
"I have one" A small blonde lad shouted from back of the room, everyone turned to see who was willing to go up first.
"Ok Lewis the floor is all yours" Kevin said as he indicated for the lad come to come to the front, Lewis nearly ran, excitedly, he didn't get to sing a solo very often so this was a novelty. Lewis whispered to Kevin his song and asked him if he would play the piano for him because he didn't know how to. Kevin raised his eyebrow obviously impressed with the song choice, he took his seat bowing to Lewis to say he was ready.
Elliot Yamin ~ From a Distance
How do I get close
When she looks like an angel
A moment of her time just seems impossible to me
Its hard to find the words
To get to know this stranger
Im scared of what shell say
If what I say sounds incomplete
And it feels like, we belong together
Can someone tell me where do I start?
Cause I cant keep on,
feeling the way I do
I cant keep on,
Hiding my heart from you
I gotta say something before
Someone else comes through
I cant keep on
Loving you, from a distance
Shes always on my mind
Theres no room left for thinking
Im tired of waiting, slowly fading
It needs to happen now (right now)
Cause Im running out of time
And I feel this ship is sinking
The doors are closing
I am frozen
I need her around
And it feels like, we belong together
Can someone tell me where do I start?
Cause I cant keep on,
feeling the way I do
And I cant keep on,
Hiding my heart from you
I gotta say something before
Someone else comes through
I cant keep on
Loving you, from a distance
From a distance
From a distance
From a distance
I cant hide
I cant keep on,
feeling the way I do
And I cant keep on,
Hiding my heart from you
I gotta say something before
Someone else comes through
Cause I cant keep on
Loving you,
I cant keep on
Loving you,
From a distance
Everyone cheered as Lewis finsished his song, bowing at the end as a big grin filled his face.
"So why this particular song Lewis?" Kevin asked as he turned on his seat by the piano to face him. Lewis looked shyly at his feet as a blush grew on his cheeks.
"It's the song I sang to my girlfriend when I asked her out" Lewis said clearly embarassed as a chorus of OOhh's and AAAhhsss filled the room. A few aaah aren't you cute followed by a roomfull of laughter as Lewis told them all to shut up and something along the lines of you're all jealous.
"Ok boys settle down" Kevin said as a few lads ruffled Lewis's hair as he walked past back to his seat. "That was very well sung Lewis I was very impressed. Now who's up next... AAhh Mr Anderson I should've guessed" Kevin said grinning as Blaine jumped up from his seat next to Kurt, Kurt rolled his eyes as he practically bounced over to Kevin. Blaine told Kevin his song choice which resulted with a small chuckle from Kevin as he raised his eyes.
"Are you sure?" Kevin asked Blaine who just nodded and grinned as he called up a couple of the Warblers to join him. Kurt frowned as he started to get nervous as he watched his boyfriend whispering to the others, grins appearing on their faces as they casted an eye back towards him.
"Okay guys you should recognise this song so feel free to join in" Blaine said as he turned to face his fellow Warblers. "This ones for you babe" Blaine said grinning as he winked at Kurt. Their were a few wolf whistles, earning a shy blush from Kurt, just before they settled to listen to the boy standing at the front of the room.
THE WARBLERS ~ TEENAGE DREAM
You think I'm pretty without any make-up on
You think I'm funny when I tell the punch line wrong
I know you get me, so I let my walls come down, down
Before you met me, I was alright
But things were kinda heavy, you brought me to life
Now every February you'll be my valentine, valentine
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I, we'll be young forever
You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's runaway and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch, now baby I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
We drove to Cali and got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and built a floor out of sheets
I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece
I'm complete
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I, we'll be young forever
You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's runaway and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch, now baby I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
I'ma get your heart racing in my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me in my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's runaway and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch, now baby I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
I'ma get your heart racing in my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me in my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
By the end of the song all the Warblers were up dancing and singing around Kurt, Blaine had pulled him up to his feet. Kurt couldn't help but grin as Blaine sang the song that he had sung to him on that first day they had met. Blaines dis-reguard for his personal stuff forgotten as he looked lovingly into his boyfriends eyes, he leant in and gave Blaine a soft chaste kiss. Realising where he was Kurt looked around shyly as a chorus of 'Get in there son' and 'Woop woop' filled the room once again. Blaine couldn't help but grin as the blush that had spread over his boyfriends face deepened, he always thought Kurt looked so cute when he was like this.
"Settle down guys" Kevin said as he clapped his hands to get their attention. "So I guess everyone knows why you chose that song, looks like you've all sung it before" Kevin grinned crossing his arms over his chest as he watched Blaine sit down and pull Kurt into his arms. Kurt swatted Blaines hand away as tried to place it on Kurts knee as Blaine pouted at him.
"Yea it was the song I sang to him when we first met" Blaine said as he smiled lovingly at Kurt, Kurt blushing even more.
"Right well as sweet that was " Kevin said as he smiled at the two boys snuggled in each others arms, "How about we have a song about something other than when you lort first met your girlfriends or boyfriends. How about.." Kevin started to say before he was interrupted by anothe Warbler.
"I have a song choice" Every one turned to face Wes as he stood and walked towards the front. He had been quiet through both songs along with David. People had noticed but from the way David kept giving them the Evil Eye they wouldn't dare mention it. David never once lifted his eyes to look at Wes as he walked towards the piano. Everyone shifted nervously in their seats as the atmosphere changed, Wes never told Kevin his song choice he just sat down and started to play. Everyone looked at David their eyes never leaving him as they listened to Wes's voice echoing around the silent room.
SEAN RUMSEY ~ SET FIRE TO THE RAIN
I let it fall, my heart
And as it fell, you rose claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and saved me
My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak
To Stand in your arms
Without fallin to your feet
But there's a side to you, that I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd say, they where never true, never true
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win.
But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour while I touched your face
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
When I lay with you, I could stay there
Close my eyes, feel you here forever
You and me together, nothing is better
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say they where never true, never true,
And the games you'd play, you would always, always win.
But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour while I touch your face
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard ya screaming out
I set fire
It burned while I cried 'causeI heard it screaming out your name
your name
Oh
gotta Let it burn
Screaming out your name, screaming out your name.
The whole room were silent, their faces filled with confusement and worry as Wes sang out his heart through the song. Wes finshed but no one knew what to do, not even Kevin as Wes turned to face David, tears in his eyes, but David refused to meet them. He kept his eyes glued to his hands, feeling everyones eyes boring into him. Then he slowly rose and his eyes slid towards Wes locking eyes with him.
"I'm sorry" He whispered his voice hitched from the emotions he felt running through his body, then he just walked out of the room. Everyone started murmuring shocked that David had walked out on Wes leaving him in tears. Kevin walked up to Wes and knelt down beside him, he placed his hand gently on his knees trying to get his attention.
"Wes what's happened?" Kevin asked gently as his heart broke for the lad crying in front of him. Wes didn't say anything at first, he just sat starring at the door willing David to just burst threw, wrap him in his arms and tell him it was a mistake and that he loved him. But that never happened, instead Kurt was the one who wrapped him in his arms, holding him tight.
"Wes?" Kurt whispered in his ear hoping to pull him out of the trance he was in. Wes swallowed and pulled him in tighter as he buried his head into Kurts shoulder sobbing as he whispered.
"David dumped me"
AAAh poor Wes, nasty David! Why would David break Wes's heart the way he did? And why has he been snapping at Wes lately? He just seems to of changed towards Wes so quickly, mmm strange! Is it over for our lovebirds? The reason for Davids behaviour comes clear soon and things become strained between the 4 friends because of it. And what of Blaines terrible mistreatment of Kurts Armani Scarf, Is all forgiven there? I think not knowing our Kurt, he's just got a little distracted lol.
