Sebastian hit the call button again.
Please pick up, please pick up, please pick up…
"Hello…" A sleepy voice sounded.
Sebastian breathed out.
"Finally,.. what the fuck took you so long?"
"I was sleep, your moron."
"Right.. right… I...I really need your help." Sebastian said and started pacing around his room.
There was some scrambling on the other side of the phone.
"My help? It's like six in the morning.. Why the fuck would you… " Travis stopped talking.
"YOU HAD THE DREAM?"
"Shh… Yes i did… No reason to shout man.." Sebastian said.
"Sorry.. Sorry… So tell me about it. Was he hot?." Travis asked.
Sebastian laughed, because that was so far from the truth.
"Not exactly… That's why i called.. could you.. could you just come here?"
"Is everything okay?... Travis asked. "Wait, it wasn't a woman was it it?"
"No. Not a woman. Just get here as fast as you can." Sebastian said and hung up.
Fuck, what did this even mean. There had to be something wrong, because he could remember all four scenes from his dream and in the first ones Kurt had definitely been all man. But why the fuck was the last thing he remembered then a face of this cute little boy, looking at him?
Wait, cute. No no… that was so wrong. This was a kid.
And your soulmate, his brain supplied.
"FUCK." He shouted and got back to his bed, throwing the covers over his head and buried his face in his pillow. This was so not what he had hoped for.
But no matter how much he tried to think of anything else, those blue eyes had glued themselves to his thought and he couldn't think of anything else.
There was a knock on his bedroom door.
"So, care to tell me why you felt the need to wake me up before the sun.?" Travis's voice sounded.
When Sebastian didn't say anything, Travis got over and sat beside his best friend on the bed.
"Sebastian?"
A humming noise came from under the covers and Travis scrunched his nose, there had to be something very wrong. Yesterday Sebastian had been so happy that this was finally happening for him and now he was laying in his bed like someone died or something.
Travis took a hold on the covers and laid down beside Sebastian.
"Talk to me, prepstar."
Sebastian finally turned his head, to look at his best friend.
He couldn't believe this.
"It's just so so wrong, Travestar."
Travis put a hand on Sebastian's back.
"What do you mean, exactly?"
Sebastian made whining sound and then moaned out.
"He's name is Kurt."
"Kurt. Well that's a good name. Strong name… I don't see something wrong with that.."
"His only a kid.." Sebastian whispered and Travis had to lean in close to hear what he said at all.
"What?"
"Kurt...He is only a kid.. My soulmate is only a kid." Sebastian said, and a tear began scrolling down his face.
Travis scooted closer to him and kissed his forehead.
"What do you mean by kid?"
Sebastian rolled them over, so he could lay his head on Travis shoulder, curling his body around his best friend.
"The final scene. Kurt was only around 7 or 8 in that one."
"Ohh..!" Travis tightened his grip around Sebastian's body.
They laid there for some hours, Sebastian fell asleep after sometime, but Travis stayed there, he had to be there for his friend.
He had read about age difference in soul mates before, but not as much as this. If Kurt was 7 or 8, that meant there was 15 years between the two of them. What was even more fucked, was that Sebastian couldn't really do anything about it before Kurt turned 18. Because before nothing would be legal. You weren't aloud to track down your soulmate if he or she was under 18.
Sebastian didn't deserve this, nobody did.
When Sebastian woke up, it was to the smell of coffee and he saw Travis sitting up against the headboard.
"You're alive prepstar?"
"Barely.." Sebastian said and took the mug.
They sat in silence, before Sebastian looked over.
"It's not fair."
"I agree. It's not. I know how much you have looked forward to this day." Travis said and he looked down. "But, there isn't really something to do about it."
Sebastian closed his eyes and let his head fall back against the headboard. "I know, i know that Travis."
"You should get up and take a bath. Then come with me to the mall, after all you have the day off, so why don't you spend it with your favorite person on earth." Travis said, trying t cheer Sebastian up.
"Kurt is my favorite person." Sebastian corrected, before he could even think about what he said.
"Wow. Already getting possessive.." Travis laughed.
"It's just so so confusing. Even though i know that my soulmate is nothing more than a little kid, i already feel so connected to him." Sebastian explained.
"I get it Sebastian. I tried it, remember?" Travis said and patted his back.
"Sorry.. Yeah."
Travis was two years older than Sebastian, and had found his soulmate 6 months after his 23th birthday. Unfortunately Steff, as his soulmate was named, died only four months later, from cancer. Travis had been devastated and Sebastian had been there for him, just like Travis would be there for him now.
Sebastian stood up and took a shower and agreed to head to the mall with Travis.
"So what is it that you have to do in there?" He asked, as they pulled up in the parking lot.
"Remember I told you about how i volunteered to be santa in a toystore for christmas?"
Sebastian nodded.
"Well, today i'm going in there to try out some of the costumes." Travis smiled and got out of the car.
They were greeted by small brunnette showing them the way to an area beside the toy store, where there was indeed a lot of costumes hanging.
"So, you just have to pick one out and then what?" Sebastian asked and scanned the costumes himself.
"Then i goes to the toy store and get that one labeled as mine." Travis explained and looked over at his best friend.
"You could try one out too, if you want?"
Sebastian laughed "I probably won't, but thanks for the offer travestar."
"Okay, then just sit down and watch me strip." Travis said and began stripping of his clothes.
"Daddy, we have to go noooow." Kurt called up the stairs where his dad was getting ready.
"Don't worry baby, i'll be right down." Burt called from upstairs.
Kurt rolled his eyes. His dad was always late.
It hadn't always been like that.
When his mom was alive, she always made him be on time.
His mom.
She missed her.
It was only three months since she had died.
Mostly he missed her kisses and her hugs, she gave the best hugs on the planet.
Thing where kind of back to normal, or as close as they could be without a mom in the house.
It was just him and his dad now.
But today was something he had looked forward to for a long time. They would go the toy store and Kurt would tell his dad what he wanted the most for christmas, so yep today was going to be a good day.
Finally his dad came down stairs and they got out to the car.
Kurt always sat in the backseat, he had hated sitting on the front seat, since the accident.
His parents had been out driving, when a car crashed into his mom's side and she was dead immediately.
So he crawled in and buckled up in the backseat.
"Buckled up, buddy" His dad asked and looked back at him.
"Yep. You dad?" Kurt asked and his dad nodded, then they drove off.
Travis had tried five different santa costumes before he finally settled with the one he thought would be perfect.
"Do you want to go with me, to label this?" He asked and looked at Sebastian.
Sebastian shook head. "No, i'm gonna stay here."
Travis looked the man up and down and gave a little smile.
"Okay. Maybe you find something you like yourself.." Then he walked out.
Sebastian walked over looking at the costumes hanging, there sure was some interesting choices in here.
"And then i want that one.." Kurt said and Burt nodded.
"Can i pick one more?" Kurt asked
Burt laughed. "You already picked out, like half the store, buddy" Then he took out his phone, as it began to ring.
"Sorry, but i have to take this."
"Okay.."
"You stay in here okay?."Burt asked and Kurt nodded.
He walked around the toy store a little while, before he saw a man come out from a area beside the store, holding a santa costume in his hands.
He loved costumes, maybe there was a costume store beside the toy store.
He looked around trying to find his dad, but no luck.
Then he looked over to weare the man had come from, maybe he could just go back there and take a small look.
Sebastian put on some sunglasses and looked in the large mirror on the wall, he was wearing a black suit, a black hat and now the outfit was complete with black sunglasses.
"Why are you looking like one of the blues brothers" Someone asked from behind.
Sebastian spoon around, so fast that he had to support himself with a hand on the wall.
He had heard that voice before.
"Sir?"
Sebastian saw a little kid taking a step closer and he felt his heart speed up.
It couldn't be..could it?
Stunning blue eyes looked up at him, blinking once.
"It's okay if you can't talk." The little boy said.
A laugh escaped Sebastian's lips.
"I can talk."
The little boy's face broke into a smile and he beamed up at Sebastian.
"Can i see the costumes?"
Before he could answer the kid, he was already taking two steps closer to the costumes, but he tripped over his feets and before Sebastian could even register anything he stepped closer and stabilised the boy from falling.
Kurt felt his cheek heat and tried to take a step back, but the man kept holding his shoulder.
For some reason it didn't bothered him though.
"Why are you wearing sunglasses?"
Sebastian could barely breathe, when he laid his hand on the boy's shoulder.
He was touching his soulmate. He let his hand slide from the boy's shoulder to his back, his big hand splayed wide over the the boys lover back as he knelt down to put them face to face.
"You don't talk much?" Kurt said and reached out to take a hold on the sunglasses.
"Careful there." Sebastian said and brought up his other hand to hold onto Kurt's smaller ones holding onto the sunglasses.
Kurt gave him small smile and Sebastian blinked when the small hand removed the sunglasses.
A small gasp escaped Kurt, when Sebastian looked at him, but he didn't move.
Sebastian gulped, he took in the way Kurt's blue eyes shined and how he kept staring at him, like he was trying to figure something out.
Then a small tear began rolling down his cheek.
And Sebastian felt his stomach turn at the sight.
"Kurt.." Then he bit his lips, because the kid didn't know he knew who he was.
"How.. how do you know my name?"
Sebastian closed his eyes, how the fuck should he explain that.
"Kurt, kiddo…!" A man's voice sounded and the boy broke eye contact with him to look over his shoulder.
"That's my dad.." Kurt said and turned around to look at Sebastian again.
Before Sebastian could respond, Kurt surprised him by taking a step forward and wrap his small hands around his neck.
Fuck..
Sebastian couldn't help but tighten his hold around the small body pressing into him.
It was just right.
Like this was what he always had missed.
What he needed more than anything.
He didn't wanted to let go.
Ever.
But he had to, he wasn't sure if Kurt knew anything about soulmates and if he did, the truth was that he was only a kid, and probably very very confused to why he was hugging a grown man.
And shit, this must look so wrong if anyone walked by.
So Sebastian took a hold on Kurt's shoulder separating them.
"Go find your dad."
"But i want to hug you some more..nobody have hugged me like that since my mom died" Kurt said and his lower lips began to tremble.
Sebastian's mind flashed to the scene in his dreams where Kurt had been walking in the cemetery, looking so sad.
Before he could think any second thoughts Sebastian leaned forward at kissed the boy's temple.
"You will get to hug me another time.." He whispered, then he stood up.
Kurt looked up at him, looking like he wanted to believe what Sebastian said. Then he turned around walking a couple of steps, before he turned around.
"What's your name?" He asked.
Sebastian had to find all the energy and power in him not to just scoop the kid up in his arms again, he wanted to have him against him forever. Wanting to see him smile.
"Sebastian.. Sebastian Smythe." He said.
Kurt's lips curled up in a small smile, when he heard the man's name.
"That is my favorite name."
With that he walked out.
Sebastian breathed out.
What the fuck, just happened?
