Enjoy!

Kurt sat at his desk in his office. It was well past midnight and all of his employees had gone home for the night. Kurt was used to working late, he actually preferred it. He had spent very free minute of his time at work because it kept his mind from wondering, wondering to him. Tonight she was with Burt so his apartment would be empty, and he couldn't face the silence and the chance of remembering.
Kurt looked at his new sketches for fashion week when his eyes were drawn to a silver chain that had broken its way out of his shirt. His chest tightened upon seeing the chain that held something that Kurt both loved and feared. The man sighed knowing he had to face it. He slowly pulled out the chain out from his shirt. Sitting in the palm of his hand was a dog tag. A rectangular silver dog tag with a New York police emblem on the back and on the front was a name engraved; Blaine Anderson. The dog tag was Blaine's from the New York Police Academy. Tears began running down his cheeks. Kurt was so lost in his thoughts that he jumped when a big gust of wind cause the studio's sketch room door to slam against the wall.
Kurt looked at the door trying to take calming breaths. He wiped the tears from his cheeks and walked over to the door.
"I thought that door was closed" Kurt thought.
Kurt closed the door and leant his forehead against it. He sighed and the floor boards creaked behind him. Before he could turn around, a large hand came around and covered his mouth while another wrapped around his beck pulling him back against a foreign, sturdy chest. Kurt gasped into the hand as his breathing increased into panting. His heart rate began increasing that he could hear the beating in his chest. Kurt could not believe that this was happening. He was starting to shake a little from fear and suddenly felt inferior and scared like he was back with Karofsky.
"Don't scream" a deep husky threatening voice hissed in Kurt's ear.
Kurt could not control his breathing anymore and it was becoming short and fast with every passing second. The voice chuckled upon seeing Kurt's body shake. The hand was slowly removed from Kurt's mouth and his panting breathing became clearer and much louder.
"W-wh-who are y-you?" Kurt stuttered, feeling tears forming in his eyes.
"Your worst nightmare" the voice hissed before a chloroform soaked cloth was placed over his mouth and nose.
Kurt struggled against the man but he was too strong. His eyes felt heavy and he could feel his limbs becoming weak. Kurt's mind went into overdrive and Kurt was struggling to stay awake that he began kicking his legs, tipping over chairs and papers went flying all over the floor. Then, everything turned black, and the dreaded silence returned.
Blaine could not believe his ears. Surely he had misheard and he was not living out his worst nightmare. But there was Kurt, his Kurt, at his recent fashion show displayed on the television in the meeting room. It was still the same exotic eyes that could be blue when he smiles and grey when he cries. Blaine could not tear his eyes off of the picture of Kurt on the screen. He was too focused on Kurt that he could not hear entirely of what was being said. He could only make out a few snippets of the conversation.
"Missing for a week….last seen at his office…suspicious since his new line debuts at fashion week in two months….."
Blaine's heart was beating erratically and it felt like the room was spinning.
"Blaine" the director said, bringing Blaine out of his thoughts. "You will take your team to the last place that the victim was seen."
"Yes sir" Blaine said softly.
"The last person to see Kurt was his personal assistant and friend, Tine Cheng. She is at the office waiting for you."
Blaine only nodded in response.
"Something wrong?" the director asked, noticing the whole team's sudden quiet demeanour.
Blaine did not respond. The whole team was quiet for a few seconds until Wes broke it.
"No sir" he answered, before everyone picked up their file and left.
"I think Blaine just got hit by a truck" Nick whispered to Jeff and Sebastian.
"I think we all feel like that" Jeff replied.
For the entire car ride, Blaine was silent as the other guys were talking mindless chit-chat. Blaine stared out of the window thinking about Kurt and what monster could have done this to him.
"You really think Kurt could be kidnapped?" David asked quietly.
"It sure sounds like it" Sebastian replied.
Nobody said another word after that sensing Blaine's discomfort until they arrived at a large building with the words 'Pavarotti' on the top. The team walked into the lobby and saw an Asian woman walk up to them.
"Good day, I'm Tina Cheng" Tina greeted sadly not looking at the guys.
"Agent Montgomery, FBI" Wes said, showing his badge.
Tina looked up recognising the name and her eyes instantly landed on Blaine.
"Blaine?" she said shocked.
Blaine lifted his eyes up from the floor and looked at Tina.
"You're working for the FBI now?"
"Obviously" Blaine shrugged, attempting to shake the uneasiness of seeing Kurt's friends again.
"And your team is taking this case?"
"Coincidence, right?" Blaine said sadly trying to lighten the mood.
Tina's face hardened and she looked at all the guys.
"You all must go" she said firmly, before walking away.
"Tina" Blaine called chasing after her.
Tina stopped walking and slowly turned to face him.
"You have some nerve showing up here" she hissed.
"I know" Blaine said. "After all this time, and what has happened, I know seeing me is the last thing you want."
"You have no idea, especially after what you did to Kurt"
The guys raised their eyebrows. They all knew that Kurt and Blaine had broken up, but they never knew why and Blaine was not talking about it any time soon.
"I know-"
"No, you don't know" Tina interrupted angrily. "You turned him into a work-a-holic. You left him a shell of the man he once was. It is great for his business but not for his emotional state and definitely not for his family."
"What family?"
"His father, his brother" Tina yelled echoing in the lobby. "Have you forgotten about that?"
Blaine looked down at the floor.
"Maybe you have since you did not even say goodbye."
Blaine snapped his head up and walked right to Tina and looked into her eyes.
"What happened between Kurt and I is none of your business"
"Oh I disagree" Tina rebutted. "You see, Kurt is my best friend and my boss, so the mess you made of him and the disgusting way you treated him is my business."
"Look, Tina" Blaine said angrily. "I did not come here to be lectured about a one-sided story. You have no idea what happened between Kurt and I, and there are things that you do not know. But all of that does not matter because right now, my concern is to find Kurt. I am here to find him, and I am not letting anyone stand in my way, not even his friends. I don't care how much you hate me right now, or how badly Burt wants to get his shotgun out on me, because, whether you believe me or not, I want to save Kurt. His safety is my number one concern and priority. So you can help me find Kurt, or I can arrest you for not cooperating and withholding information. It is your choice."
Tina remained quiet as she stared into Blaine's eyes. For some reason she could see tears starting to form in his eyes. She wanted to hate him just like she had been for the past five years but right in his eyes was something that she hadn't seen in a while. She could see the truth in his eyes. She could tell that he was one hundred per cent focused on finding Kurt.
"Fine" Tina said. "FBI, follow me."
Tina sighed and led the team to an elevator which took them up to Kurt's private design studio. The elevator doors opened up to the front door of the design studio. There were two large black leather couches situated in the centre with a glass coffee table. Behind the couches was a complete glass wall overlooking New York City itself. On the right side of the studio was a large storage room filled with fabric, manikins and other materials. On the left side was Kurt's sketch room complete with large tables, manikins wearing half made outfits, and a mini coffee machine in the corner.
"I was the last one to see Kurt" Tina explained as they all entered the studio. "He was here fixing his new sketches as he prepares for fashion week. He was always the first one to arrive in a morning, and the last one to leave at night. Some of us thought that he slept here half the time."
"Anyone touched anything up here?" Blaine asked, pulling on a pair of gloves while the others unpacked the gear.
"No. Kurt and I are the only ones with a key. This is his private space" Tina answered.
"Alright" Blaine began. "Nick and Sebastian, you are on camera duty. David, check for prints. Wes and I will check the sketch room."
Tina watched as Blaine gave his orders and headed to their duties. Wes and Blaine walked into the sketch room slowly. Blaine looked at the key hole and noticed something.
"David' Blaine called. "Bring your camera."
Tina and David walked over to Blaine and noticed the same thing.
"The door had been tampered with" Blaine announced.
David raised the camera and took a photo of the key hole as evidence.
"Window is also left open" Wes noticed.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Tina asked walking in behind them.
"No one would leave the window open when leaving at the end of the night" Wes answered.
"Blaine" Nick called.
Nick walked into the sketch room carrying a piece of white cloth.
"Found this by the front door" he said handing it to Blaine.
Blaine took it and sniffed it. "Chloroform."
"Someone's careless" Sebastian called from the other room.
"Or someone broke into Kurt's design studio and then broke into this door when he was alone. They then used this on Kurt and dropped it when they were dragging him away" Blaine said grimly as he placed it in an evidence bag.
"He's right" Jeff called from the other room. "The front door has also been tampered with too. It looks like it was pick-locked."
"What gave it away?" Sebastian asked sarcastically. "Was it the chloroform or the fact that the tables are trashed showing signs of struggle?"
Blaine and Wes turned around from the sketch room door and noticed that there were Kurt's sketches lying all over the floor. The chairs had been tumbled over and tables looked misplaced.
Blaine's breath caught in his throat when he realised that Sebastian was right. He felt stupid in that moment because he had been focused purely on the door being tampered with that he did not notice that the room was completely trashed. Blaine ignored Sebastian's sarcasm and decided to walk further into the room to look for other evidence underneath the thrown papers. He stepped to one of the tables when he felt something underneath his foot. He had stepped on something. Blaine lifted up his foot and noticed that he had stepped on a dog tag necklace. He crouched down on the floor, minding Kurt's beautiful sketches, and picked up the necklace with his glove hand. He turned it over and saw his name engraved on the front. He gasped and it felt like his heart stopped beating. It was his dog tag that every student received at the police academy and he gave it to Kurt.
Blaine was walking around their beautiful New York apartment bedroom taking out clothes and packing them in a bag sitting on the bed in front of Kurt, who sat there cross-legged.
"Why do you have to go?" Kurt whined, watching Blaine pack.
Blaine chuckled. "This is my final assignment. I have to go otherwise my three years of training would be for nothing."
"But you are training at an abandoned train station. It will be dangerous" Kurt said, worried and started unpacking Blaine's bag.
"Kurt" Blaine smiled starting to repack his bag. "It's only for two nights. I'll be back before you know it" he added before kissing Kurt on the lips.
"Too long" Kurt pouted. "It's going to be too dangerous."
"No it won't. You are just keeping me from going."
Kurt smirked at Blaine's response.
"Besides, my partner, Andy, will be there to make sure that I do not fail so that I come back to you and so that I will not get into trouble" Blaine assured.
Kurt looked down at the ground sadly. Blaine saw the look in Kurt's eyes and knew that Kurt struggled with letting Blaine go anywhere away from him for more than 24 hours after they had spent a year apart. Blaine smiled softly at his boyfriend.
"How about this" Blaine said taking off his dog tag necklace. "You wear my academy necklace so that I am with you and you know that you will never be alone" he added placing the necklace over Kurt's head.
Kurt held the dog tag in the palm of his hand and smiled. He looked up into Blaine's eyes.
"I love you" Kurt said, pulling Blaine into a kiss.
"I love you, too" Blaine said going into another kiss.
Blaine sighed at the memory and wrapped his hand around the dog tag, holding it close to his heart. He could already start to feel the tears forming in his eyes just ready to fall.
"Where are you, Kurt?" Blaine whispered desperately.
Darkness…..that was all Kurt could see. His head was pounding, feeling his pulse even behind his eyes preventing him from opening. His mind was telling him to open his eyes while his guy was telling him otherwise. There was an eerie and dangerous feeling in the air that his guy couldn't shake. The scent of fresh flowers touched his senses suddenly, clearing away the pounding feeling and the darkness.
Kurt slowly opened his eyes and he realised that his senses were surely lying because he was greeted with a dreary empty room. The only light source in the room came from the sun light shining through the only window on the far wall. A loud noise muffled through the walls. When his eyes adjusted to the room's lack of light, he noticed that he was handcuffed. Kurt struggled against the cuffs that bound his wrists behind his back.
"Struggle all you want" a voice said, entering the room. "But you are not getting out of here."
"Who are you?" Kurt demanded, hiding his fear.
The shadows of the room over by the door covered the man's face. Kurt could just make out the hint of blue on the man's shirt. The sun light hit something that the man was wearing causing it to glisten. Before Kurt could examine it any further, the stranger chuckled darkly. The sound made Kurt's breath get caught in his throat and it sent chills and shivers up and down his spine.
"The last person you will ever see" the man replied.
The man slowly walked forward into the room and his face was slowly revealed by the sun light. Kurt gasped recognising the face before he was grabbed by the hair and yanked to his feet. He yelped in pain and stared into the cold dead eyes of his captor.
"I'm going to make you suffer just like you made me suffer" the man added before he threw Kurt back against the wall.
The man chuckled before stalking out of the room and locking the door behind him. when Kurt heard the footsteps walk away, he let the flood gates open and he began to sob. Kurt's body was shaking with fear as he sobbed and he wished, more than anything, to be back in the arms of his family and Blaine. The scent of flowers blew through the open window and it made him think of Blaine.
Kurt was walking up the McKinley stairs carrying something behind his back wearing a huge smile on his face. Near the top of the stairs he ran into the person that he was looking for; Blaine.
"Cast list goes up on Friday. Are you nervous?" Kurt asked, with a spark in his eye.
"A little but I'm trying not to think about it" Blaine sighed nervously.
"I wouldn't be" Kurt assured, with a smile. "My mole in the casting office says that you're seriously being considered for the part of Tony…and his initials are BA."
Blaine smiled at Kurt's information and Kurt revealed a bouquet of red and yellow roses from behind his back.
"Kurt, they're beautiful" Blaine gushed accepting the roses. "But what are they for?"
"You killed your audition, Blaine. If anyone else got Tony, including me, the rapture persona would fall upon McKinley like a plague of locusts. These are to celebrate you."
Blaine smiled as he looked at Kurt.
"You always zig when I think you're gonna zag and I just love about you."
Kurt sobbed harder at the thought of the memory. No matter what he did, no matter how much he tried, he still loved Blaine, even after he abandoned him.
"Blaine, I need you" Kurt sobbed.
