Kurt's POV

When I get home from coffee with David I still feel as if I'm on cloud nine, skipping into my room, twirling around, before throwing myself on the bed. Who knew the boy who once bullied me and made my life hell could be a sweet, caring person under that mask. David made me feel like a million dollars tonight. The way he looked at me, the way he spoke to me, I swear I never felt so special. Certainly never by Blaine! That's not to say Blaine isn't/wasn't a good friend, just that he never made me feel as special.

I get up to perform my nightly routine and throw on some pajamas. I think I'll text David since I didn't really want to say goodnight yet…

David, I hope you made it home okay? I had an amazing time tonight, thank you!

From David: G'night, Fancy, I had fun, really, and I wish the night didn't have to end so quickly.
Sweet dreams... I know I'll have them.
xxxxxx Dave
P.S. Thanks for that outfit. ;)
Feb 16 9:35PM

Awww, I wish it didn't have to end so quickly either. Gosh, flirting with Dave feels so good... and he's so responsive. I think this is what I've been missing. Sure Blaine was good to me, but I never felt like I was the priority like I do with Dave. I'm shallow enough to admit, at least to myself, that I really need to feel that I am number one to someone instead of it always being the other way around.

You know, I'm not really tired... are you? If not, wanna chat?
You are very welcome! Every moment is a fashion moment.
I must say you looked pretty smokin' hot as well. ")

From David: Thank you... and no, I'm not tired but figured you had stuff to do...
I thought you looked hot, too, in that purple shirt… and, whoa, those jeans!
Do you use baby oil to get into them? :D

Oh, what a flirt! I really like this side of Dave. I have to remember to thank Santana when I see her tomorrow. I love all the little x's and o's at the end of his texts! Annnd he looked so good tonight!

Baby oil?! That would ruin the fabric, my silly boy.
But you, WOW, I was quite impressed. It was really good to see you without that awful letterman jacket. I didn't know arms could be such a turn on. ")

From David: Glad you can't see how red my face is but thanks, I work out. :)
I kinda like those super-tight skinnies you wear but I can't figure out how you get in – or out of them.

Hmm, I'm probably moving too fast, but you know what? I don't care. It is time to turn up the Hummel charm.

Are you blushing, Dave? I bet you're extremely handsome when you blush. It must go well with your beautiful eyes.
Oh, and you're making this too easy, Dave... but I could totally show you how easy it is to get me out of my jeans. Just say when. ")

Feb 16 9:50PM

From David: Whoa! Where's the pod? Is this the real Kurt Hummel?! \o/
LOL! Damn, Fancy, I didn't know you were such a flirt!
I'm loving this – and yes, my face is still red but I don't know about the beautiful eyes thing.
I can't believe how lucky I am but I won't question it anymore, just enjoy...
and I'd love to take you up real soon on that last offer. ;)

Okay, we are going to have to work on his confidence a bit. He's probably thinking about the shit I said in the locker room that day, damn it! I was angry and scared – I didn't mean it. Well, we'll just fix that now.

Oh, David... of course you're handsome! You do have beautiful eyes and I found myself staring at your lips several times tonight. When you smile, it's so much better. I think I was too scared to notice before. Now that there is no fear, I'm discovering just how attractive you really are. I know I said some horrible things to you, but it was just the fear talking. Please accept my apology as I have accepted yours, and let's move forward.
I've always been a flirt, just never had anyone to flirt with. Blaine was never into PDAs and, as evidenced by his behavior the other night, never really into me. I feel like I can be myself with you because we've already been through so much. I don't want to rush you, but I don't want to miss an opportunity to tell you how I feel either. I think we are both lucky.
So, would you like to go to dinner with me tomorrow? We could go over to Westerville or Dayton if you're not comfortable in Lima.

Feb 16 9:58PM

I hope he accepts! I want to take him out and show him a good time. Hopefully he will relax. Oh, there's that drive-in in Westerville, too. Maybe I'll just look up times and see what's showing while I wait for his reply.

From David: Yes! Dinner would be great but I want you to choose as I trust you to go for only the finest. ;)
You know by now how I feel about you but you don't know how much I love the way your eyes are a unique color. I can't tell what color they are from day to day and when I used to walk you to classes I had to pinch myself to stop from staring. You are the most beautiful boy I've ever seen, no matter how we used to tease you. I know Tana calls you Lady Lips but it's not meant in a bad way because I know she envies you how soft they look. I would like to find out myself just how soft they are. ;)
I love that you feel comfortable enough to move as fast as you want to and I will always follow your lead. I would spend every day with you if you gave me the chance, so be careful. You might just find yourself with a 200-lb shadow. :D
So, this is me giving you permission to flirt with me as much as you want to. No complaints, just know that I've no practice at flirting but would love to learn with you.

Holy shit! That text was amazing. Surprise, surprise – this boy is constantly surprising me. Great, now I'm hard as a rock, thinking about him being my shadow…

Awww, you are incredibly charming when you want to be. Please continue. No complaints from me either. At the risk of embarrassing myself and sounding like an enormous slut, I have to say I would love to have you as my shadow. ")
I think we may need to revisit our first kiss. I'm sure we can do so much better. Then you can text Tana and rub it in. :p
There is a great Thai place in Westerville that I would love to take you to, if you're up for it? There's also an old-fashioned drive-in over in that area. I was thinking dinner and a movie, how does that sound?
XOXO Fancy
Feb 16 10:05PM

God, I hope I don't scare him off with that last one. I might have to slow down a bit, but I am a teenage boy with hormones.

From David: Thai sounds great, Fancy, and though I've never been to a drive-in, it sounds really romantic.
My mind is reeling though at the thought of your other offer. I'm not giving away any secrets when I say kissing you is up there on my to-do list. Also, I live to annoy Tana – as long as there are no razor blades in her hair. :D
Is Friday night good for you? It's a little over 24 hours from now but I might have to have dinner with my dad tomorrow night.
xoxoxox Hamhock
Feb 16 10:07PM

Romantic? Does he realize I was coming on to him? Alright, stop it, Kurt, get yourself together and don't analyze this to death.

The razor blades are a myth, David, and if she gets out of hand, use my secret weapon... tell Brittany... heheheh.
Friday night is perfect. I will pick you up at 5:30 p.m. I am looking forward to spending some quality alone time together.
I think about that kiss in the locker room a lot. If I could go back, I would not have let you walk away.
xxoxx Fancy
Feb 16 10:11PM

There… now he has to get it, right? My stomach has a ton of butterflies right now.

From David: Wow, I didn't realize... I thought you had been horrified! I was such a douche but I'm a different guy now, thanks to you. You are what they mean by brave and beautiful. Not many guys half my size would have been all up in my face like that, Fancy. ;) Pretty impressive – and I couldn't not kiss you.
Yeah, 5:30 is good and now I know I'll be sleeping with a big smile on my face. :D

Feb 16 10:16PM

Crap, I didn't want to get all serious right now, but I want this to work. My Dad says honesty is the best policy so here goes…

I'm not going to lie to you, David, I was horrified at first... but when you leaned in for another one, something clicked. The more I thought about it the more I realized that you were dealing with some pretty strong emotions. While I'm not excusing your behavior, you could have made better choices; I do have an understanding I didn't have before. It changes how I view what happened significantly. You are making things right, now, and that's all I care about. Makes you pretty brave and beautiful too. ")
So, goodnight, sweet prince, sleep well and dream wonderful dreams.
xoxoxxoxox Fancy
PS: I have a free 3rd period. If you're bored or whatever, feel free to text me... actually, YOU can text me anytime you want. ;)
Feb 16 10:22PM

I hope that wasn't too much for him. I didn't mean to get into such a deep discussion via text. I find it weird that I want him back at McKinley now.

From David: Good night, beautiful, and I'll definitely be texting you. Be careful, because I can be a bit intense. :)
There's nothing I'd like better than to shower you with everything good, and kisses would be the first of those. You fill all my waking thoughts and much of my dreams and that's only because I don't have control over my mind when I sleep.
I know there are people who think high school kids don't know what love is but they are wrong, Fancy. They clearly missed out on a lot but I don't plan on missing out on anything with you, no matter our age.
Love you... and sleep well. Tomorrow and the next day can't come soon enough for me.

Love me? Does he really love me? I know he said it on Valentine's Day, but… WOW. Awww, 'Your Hamhock' - that is too freakin' sweet!

I have to call one of the girls right now. I don't wanna call Mercy, though; we're just not that close lately. I still love her, but she's upset over the whole Blaine thing and I am sooo not getting into the David thing with her right now. I love Rachel and we have become so much closer, but she'll just turn the conversation into something about herself, so no to that, too. Hmm, it's too late to call Tina, maybe Quinn? No! I'd be better off talking to Noah. I guess it's Santana then… I hope I'm not interrupting her time with Britt.

...

"What do want, Lady Lips? Do you know what time it is?" Santana answered in her normal 'charming' voice.

"Well, hello to you too, Satan. It's only 10:35, for cryin' out loud. What are you, an old lady?" I rolled my eyes at her ridiculousness.

"Zip it, Ice Princess. What's up your butt? Oh wait, I know this one!" She cackled.

My eyebrow shot up. "Cool it, Sandbags. I actually wanted some advice, but I'm not sure you can help me."

"Oh! Tell Aunty Snix what you need, my little snowflake." I could hear the smirk through the phone.

"It's about David."

"Ha! This should be good. What's our Narnia resident done now?"

This made me laugh. "Nothing, really, it's just… okay, so we went out for coffee tonight. I had a really good time. He is very charming and sweet – who knew? Anyway, we've been texting since I got home. I did some fabulous flirting and then the conversation got a little serious. We have a date Friday night, dinner and a drive-in, in Westerville."

"That sounds gay enough, so what's the problem?"

"I told you about Valentine's Day, remember? So when we were saying goodnight tonight, David said he loved me! What do I do with that?" I realize my heart is beating faster.

"What do you mean? Do you love him?" I can't tell if she's serious or being a smartass.

"Tana, it's a little early for love, don't you think?" I wipe my palms on the comforter. Why are my palms sweating?

"Maybe for you, Hummel, but not for Davey-boy. He's been head over rainbows for your glittery ass for a long time." Again she's cackling at her own jokes and I'm thinking calling her might've been a mistake.

"Can you be serious for a minute, Santana?!"

"Don't use your high voice with me, Queenie," she growls. "I am being serious, Kurt. Dave has been into you since forever. His feelings for you and the self-imposed walls of his hulking closet are what all the angst, locker checks and slushies have been about."

"So you think I should just go with it? I am really attracted to him and now that I'm not being bruised and slushied daily, I can admit that. I, what? Just date him? See where it goes? Have sex with him?"

"You're a teenage boy, for Pete's sake, and so is Dave! Grab some cherry-flavored lube and get your freak on… everything else will fall into place."

"Santana!"

"Oh, please, don't give me your virgin diaries bullshit, Hummel. You want some of that Yogi Bear and there's no reason not to gets you some. Don't be such a Rachel! Spontaneity is the essence of life."

"He is hot… and those arms! Oh, you should've seen him tonight. He had on a long-sleeve button-up shirt that showed off some amazing muscles. I almost swooned." I'm fanning my face just remembering. "I think he might even give Noah a run for his money in the guns department."

"Hahahahahaha!" I hear the phone drop as Santana cracks up.

I just roll my eyes again and wait for her to get back on the line.

"Hummel, do me a favor, please? Tomorrow in Glee, say that again so Puck hears it, please! It will be epic!"

"You're evil, you know that, right?" I am grinning, though; it would be funny to see Noah's reaction.

"Look, you're eighteen; you have this last year of high school before you skip down the yellow brick road on your way to New York. Live a little while you can! If there's ever gonna be a time to let loose, it's gonna be now. Who knows what's gonna happen between you and Magilla gorilla, but why not just enjoy it while you can? Don't overthink it!"

"Well, I can sort of see the logic in that. I just don't want to hurt him, though. He's just barely peeking out of the closet. I don't wanna push him too far and be the reason he goes running back to the White Queen to be frozen with Mr. Tumnis."

"You're overthinking it, Kurt. Sex is fun. Ya, sure it's better when there are feelings involved, but regular sex is fun, too. You never know. Yogi might surprise you and then you'll fall in love and live happily over the rainbow together."

"Really, Santana? Your mixed metaphors are giving me a headache." I rub my temples for some relief. "You should see his texts. They are so sweet, and charming, and… and innocent! I feel like I'm some villain trying to steal his virtue! How the hell does that happen? And you all say I'm the girly one..."

"There's no denying; if one of you is gonna be PMS'ing it'll definitely be you, but that's because he didn't know it was okay to feel what he was feeling. Ten bucks says once he gets a taste of your cherry chapstick he'll be all over your peacock!"

"Oh my Gaga! Katy Perry references!" Now I'm cracking up and I almost fall off my bed.

"I do what I can." I can hear Santana giggling and I realize just how much I really love this girl. Maybe not as much as Rachel, but it's pretty damn close.

"Alright, Miss Know-it-all, meet up tomorrow and I'll show you the texts?"

"You got it. Oh, and I'll take a tall Caramel Ice Mocha while you're at it."

"Sounds good. Britt still drinks the Vanilla Frappé, right?"

"It disturbs me how close you and my woman are, Hummel, but yes, she does."

"Well I think it's fair, considering you've dated my new man. We should double date!"

"Uggh! Good night, Lady Lips."

"Good night, Satan."

After I hang up with Tana, I set my alarm a little early so I can make it to the Bean. I'm starting to feel more and more excited for Friday. I hope things go well with Dave.

I start to plan my outfit in my head as I drift off to sleep.
