A.N.: Wow I'm shocked about all the alerts this story got in the short time it has been on. Well this chapter is the 4th day in till Blaine gets home. I hope you enjoy.
Disclaimer: I don't own glee or the characters from CP Coulter's Dalton.
Kurt woke to a loud bang and shot straight up in the bed. He looked around and remembered where he was. He was in the spare bedroom ofhis best friend's house. Kurt got out of the bed put on his robe and headed to find the source of the noise.
When Kurt got to the kitchen he found Reed with his head covered with a towel. He could see the blood coming through and ran over to see what he could do. Reed just pushed him away when Shane ran in with the first-aid kit. Shane took out the gauze and began cleaning the wound. Kurt watched this from his seat at the table.
After Reed was wrapped up and took some meds, the three headed out for breakfast instead of Reed trying to cook and risk hurting himself farther. The men went to the coffee shop Kurt and Reed were at yesterday and had bagels with hot chocolate. The whole time Shane held his fiancé's (Reed) hand. It made Kurt's heart ache for Blaine and it didn't help matters that Shane looked just like his brother with the same eyes and curly hair. The brothers were also the same height. Kurt just wanted to have time with his soul mate like his friends. But that couldn't happen with his boyfriend being thousands of miles across the world and wasn't due home for 6 more months.
The guys finished their breakfast and headed over to the local art gallery Reed was being honored at. They looked at all the paints Reed has done over the years, some of landscapes and others having to do with "Warblerland" characters. One of the paintings was of a man with curly hair and warm hazel eyes but the strange thing was that he had giant white rabbit ears. Kurt knew the second he saw the ears it was to show his boyfriend and his nickname the Tweedles gave him to fit in the chaos of Warblerland.
That's when Kurt broke down seeing that his and Blaine's portraits bring side by side and there being a half heart on each so when they were connected they formed a small red heart. Kurt knew Reed did this on purpose to show the love they shared for each other. But it was too much to see without his other half to comfort him. Kurt wiped the tears away and headed out of the gallery to wait for the artist to be done going over his work.
Kurt stood waiting for a good 5 minutes when two men walked up to him and grabbed his hands. One was dressed in a top hat and the other had brown hare ears on. Kurt knew without seeing their faces it was Blaine's two best friends in the world, Wes and David. The men took Kurt into a local movie theatre a block away the gallery and took him to the first projection room. Wes and David led Kurt to the middle seats that were already stocked with snacks and took their seats.
The lights dimmed and the projector started. On the screen was a picture of Kurt in the outfit he wore the day Blaine left and then there was Blaine in his uniform in the middle of the desert. Kurt questioned Wes and David on the way to the theatre and realized just then what this was, a video of what has happened with Blaine so far away. The three watched the different pictures and home videos of Kurt and his friends and then the photos of Blaine and his fellow soldiers. The whole time the movie played songs of great importance to their relationship like Teenage Dream and Baby, Its Cold Outside.
At the very end Kurt was so close to crying and then Blaine's face was there smiling holding a side that said "Kurt, I love you and will be home soon! Courage is all you need." He couldn't hold the tears back anymore. It was too much to see his love and himself without each other in the photos.
After the last picture faded away there was another picture of Blaine but this time it wasn't just a picture it was a video. When it started Kurt looked up to see his boyfriend in a tent and in his uniform. He looked tired and unkempt. Kurt hung on every word he said like it was the last thing he was going to hear.
"Kurt, I know this is hard but it's what I have to do. I miss you every day. You are the only reason I keep going in this war. I will come home to you and don't forget that. I love you with all my heart and soul. Don't shut down from everything like you did last time, talk to Reed, Shane, Wes, and David. They are there for you and know what you are going through. We will be together before you know it and can finally live happily ever after because this is my last tour. I told them this morning and they understood. Babe, I'm coming home to stay this time just hold together in till I get there. I love and miss you all day, every day. Remember courage. I love you!"
Kurt had tear tracks on his face and was excited to see Blaine next since if it was true like he said he was coming to stay and never have to go back. He was so catch in the video he didn't hear the Tweedles, Reed and Shane come in the door. They all gathered around him and waited. When Kurt came back to reality he smiled to all his friends that were around him. He knew they wouldn't be letting him go back to the darkness that surrounded him last time Blaine was overseas.
The Tweedles treated everyone to a nice dinner at The Cheesecake Factory and a showing of Wicked. Kurt was overjoyed at the time he got with his friends and the news of Blaine was staying and not leaving.
When Reed, Shane, and Kurt got back to the cottage around 11 they went and crashed. Kurt fell asleep curled up with a pillow that was about his boyfriend's height and dreamed of the reunion that was to happen; he just didn't know it was coming sooner than he thought.
A.N.: Awww I loved this so far! I was thinking about doing a little thing like a note or video everyday till Blaine gets back like this one. What do you think? Review if you have an idea.
