New chapter yay :3 so basically I got bored and started writing the next chapter so, here you go!
After the coffee outing, Kurt made his way back, the snow heavy through his old boots and his coat barely keeping him warm. He contemplated everything that had happened, meeting Blaine and Rachel, how they were so nice to him, how they'd bought him coffee, and how he'd been actually able to have a decent conversation with them, especially Blaine. Blaine. Even repeating the name in his head made him feel a giddy sensation.
Why did you run away from them, they were nothing but nice to you and you just left when things got serious. No, they didn't even get serious. Snap out of this, the last thing you need right now is a pathetic inner monologue.
So with that, he walked home, to the same old stench and the same old pathetic shoebox.
"Q-Quinn?" He called out, closing the door behind him. "Yes honey?" She emerged from the bathroom, carefully towel drying her hair and sits down on the couch. "Tell me, how was your first day at NYADA?" She opened her arm, and Kurt crawled under it, snuggling close to her. "It was alright, I met these two people, one of them was really cute..." He trailed off and sighed, the image of Blaine still fresh in his memory.
"A guy?" She quickly responded, "What's his name? IS he gay? Do you like him?" She nudged Kurt's shoulder and all he did was move closer to her, giving her a small shrug of a response. "His name is Blaine, I don't know if I like him, and he looks gay..." "Then you should totally go for it." She kissed his temple and sat up.
"You deserve some love honey,-" "-I have you," "-Not that kind of love." Quinn looked down at him, gently moving his hair for him, sighing to herself. We're both growing up and you especially, deserve someone."
"Quinn, I only met him today!" "-So? Who cares!" Kurt just smiled and got up. "I have a shift now down at Santa's Grotto, looks like I'm on elf duty again..." Kurt pulled on his jacket again, sighing and picks up his bag.
"I promise you, this time next year, will be so much better." She spoke softly, her words soothing to Kurt's ears, and he simply nodded, and gave a small and heartbreaking plain smile.
"See you later, Quinn." Was his reply, before he exited out the door.
Hours later saw Kurt standing on the top floor of Macy's, dressed as one of Santa's helpers, although to him, this was one of the less demeaning jobs he's had since living here. He stood in a small green and red outfit which made his frame look even skinnier, his cheeks were red and his arms tight around his waist, in sheer embarrassment. When it was his time to call it a day, he went to the lockers at the back of the building, jumping slightly when a tall, handsome blonde approached him.
"Are you new here? I haven't seen an elf quite like you here before." The man said, he was clearly in his early twenties, with gorgeous hazel eyes and an accent that shouldn't work but it did on him.
Kurt nodded, continuing to get his clothes from his locker, he wasn't going to lose any more of his dignity by walking through Times Square looking like this.
"Adam, by the way, my name's Adam." Kurt turned to him, a grin forming across his cheeks that was impossible to hide.
"Kurt," he responded, his voice was still quiet, even though he was trying to find the right words.
"Well Kurt, as you're new, I do hope you'll let me take you out this Friday, unless of course you're busy, which I really hope you're not." Adam looked up at him, and Kurt just smiled and nodded. "Yeah, u-uh...yeah, I'd like that." "Great, Friday it is." Adam winked and shook Kurt's hand before walking away, but whilst doing so, slipping a piece of paper with his phone number on it into Kurt's hand. At this, Kurt looked down and bit his lip, maybe today was a good day after all.
Dun dun dun.
:3 anyway I know I said this was Kurt angst but all will be revealed later (hopefully) Please review if you're enjoying this, I really appreciate it :') 3
