It's almost one in the morning over in Ohio and the streets are getting very quiet at which sometimes scare people, but no one worries too much. Blaine is at home, his parents are away again as usual and Sam his only guy friend left at McKinley is away back with his family for Christmas. Blaine sits on his bed and tries to think about what he's going to do. Does he call Kurt? Is he supposed to let Kurt call him? Blaine doesn't even know what to do anymore he's been so lost without Kurt and he knows he has himself to blame. When he realized what time it was he decided to sleep on things and figure out more tomorrow. He lay down and started to drift off into a deep sleep.
"Kurt, there is a moment when you say to yourself, Oh, there you are. I've been looking for you forever, watching you do Blackbird this week, that was a moment for me. About you. You move me, Kurt." Blaine was dreaming about the time he first kissed Kurt. "We should go practice." He said.
"I thought we were" Kurt smiled and they started to kiss again. Neither of them hearing the rest of the warblers sneak in and start cheering and clapping for the two of them. A lot of them were yelling about time as well. The scene changed and they were in Kurt's bedroom, Kurt had just come up from the kitchen with snacks for him and Blaine. He could see Blaine was upset and that he had his phone in his hands.
"Whose Chandler?" he asked Kurt, he was quite upset. And Kurt was quite appalled by the fact that Blaine had been going through his phone.
"Why are you going through my phone?" Kurt says a little annoyed
"I wasn't going through your phone, it's just that it keeps buzzing because Chandler won't stop texting you." Blaine continued as he read Chandler's text's out to Kurt reading them with devastation and annoyance.
Kurt now irritated and mad at the fact that his boyfriend didn't trust him with another guy and tells Blaine to give him his phone. The two of them immediately get into a fight because Blaine sees this as cheating and Kurt doesn't see it that way. He says it's the same thing that happened between him and Sebastian. They continue to fight and Blaine walks out and leaves Kurt by himself.
Things change again and they're at prom where Kurt had just won prom queen. Kurt runs into the hallway, Blaine runs to follow. "Kurt, Kurt Stop." He reaches him and sees Kurt turn towards him crying "It was just a stupid joke." He says trying to stop him from crying. Kurt continued to cry as he spat out "No, All that hate and they were just afraid to say it out loud so they did it by secret ballad." Blaine sat down against the lockers as Kurt did the same and he asked him what he wanted to do. "So you have two options, one being we can leave here and go home or two you can go back in there and show them that their words don't hurt."
Kurt looked at Blaine lovingly and stood back up he started to speak with anticipation "I'm going to show them they can't touch me, they can't touch us. What we have is way more important." He took Blaine's hand and pulled him up and then they walked back to the gym. Kurt walked up on to the stage where was standing and was ready to crown him queen. As soon as the crown was placed on his head and he was handed his stave he went in front of the mic and very bravely and proudly said "Eat your heart out Kate Middleton." He then continued off stage where he was standing next to Dave Karofsky who was that years Prom King and whispered that now was his chance. Instead Karofsky ran off and left Kurt in the spotlight alone. Blaine stepped in and asked him "May I have this dance?" Kurt happily grabbed his hand and started to slow Dance.
There was a ringing noise within the music and it started to annoy Blaine and he realized he'd been dreaming and was just woken into reality by his phone. He had no idea what time it was or anything and he couldn't find his phone anywhere. It didn't help that he was still half asleep and didn't go to bed until almost 2 in the morning. After feeling around his whole bed and not finding it he reluctantly decided to get out of the bed. Actually he kind of fell out of the bed because he was too tired and weak to realize what he was doing. His phone went off again and Blaine realized just how loud his phone was because he ended up finding his phone in his back pack out by the bathroom in the hall. Unfortunately when he reached the phone he missed the call for the 5th time. Blaine rubbed his eyes and realized he missed Burt's call five times, he also realized that it was 10 minutes till noon.
He took his phone and went downstairs into the kitchen; he dialed Burt's number as he searched the kitchen for food. It rang once, twice, the third time Burt picked up the phone "Hey kiddo, how are you?"
"I've been alright" Blaine yawned into the phone "I just was thinking about things and what Kurt and I talked about last month." he started to yawn again, but he was also starting to get teary eyed.
"You don't sound alright, everything ok." Burt yelled into the phone
"Where are you?" Blaine asked him curiously, he could barely hear some of what Burt even told him.
"I'm out at the mall with Kurt and Rachel; I wanted to call you about something." he yelled again "It's very noisy in this place I can barely hear you, and I'm sure you're having the same problem"
"Ya I am, wait you're with Kurt?" he asked, the tone in his voice changing real quick as he perked up to the sound of Kurt's name. The two of them hadn't spoken sense Thanksgiving and things were starting to feel weird.
"Blaine you sound tired and upset, what's going on?" Burt figured if he couldn't get it out of his son he could count on Blaine. However, he was being somewhat reluctant about things because all he wanted to do was fix things.
"Blaine" Burt called out. Blaine hadn't even realized that he zoned out.
"I'm sorry I've just been thinking about a lot of things, I miss Kurt like crazy and I know we made up over Thanksgiving but it's just not the same." He had said starting to tear up "Not only that but I've been home with nothing to do because my parents are away and Sam's away with his family. Pretty much all I've been doing the past two days is sleep, cry, and attempt to write a song for Kurt."
"Dad who are you talking to?" Kurt yelled over to him, he and Rachel just came out of the store they were in. Burt put his finger up, so Kurt knew to wait. Over in Ohio Blaine could hear Kurt's sweet voice and that was it he started to ball his eyes. He missed Kurt so much and really wanted to fix everything.
"Buddy, I'll call you later ok. Try to refocus yourself and get some sleep." Burt said to Blaine a bit quieter than before because Kurt was heading over to where his father was. Blaine just hung up the phone and then sat on the bar stool in the kitchen continuing to cry. He didn't realize just how much he wanted Kurt back until he heard his voice again.
After crying, Blaine sat there and started to think more about things. "Why did Burt call? Am I really this lost without Kurt? I mean seriously I talked to him last month and I feel like it's been a lifetime. I know this whole thing is more my fault, but he also was ignoring me and really wasn't taking his part in our relationship. Really wish Sam were here right now, he had been helping me with things and now Christmas is two days away and I'm home with no one."
He finally decided that he was just going to get some pizza and then go lay down some more, he had a headache now and wanted it to go away.
Back in New York Burt, Kurt and Rachel were just getting home from the mall. They were out almost all day. They had just walked into the apartment and Kurt started asking questions.
"Dad who were you talking to at the mall? It seemed important. Was it Carole? Is she ok?" Kurt stated starting to panic.
"Calm down Carole is fine bud; it was just some business stuff no need to worry." He looked at Rachel his eyes stern, telling her he hasn't asked Blaine the big question yet. Rachel then decided to ask Kurt if he wanted to go out and grab dinner at one of the local restaurants. He looked at her suspiciously for a moment but decided it might be the best sense it was getting late and they had nothing cooking for dinner yet.
"You're welcome to join Burt?" Rachel asked him, she already knew the answer but had to make it seem like she didn't know what he was up to.
"No, I'm ok. You kids have fun." He said
"You sure dad?" Kurt asked him as he pulled the door open.
"I'm fine, have fun." Burt replied to his son, and Kurt walked out the door. Burt then pulled out his phone when the door shut. He dialed Blaine and waited for him to answer the phone.
Blaine had still been in bed, he really wasn't feeling well. The conversation he had earlier with Burt tore him, especially after hearing Kurt's voice. Honestly, he really hoped Burt didn't call him back. Everything is just too painful for him right now. Blaine was now just lying in bed not sleeping but thinking when he heard his phone go off. He looked at the screen and saw that it was Burt, he decided to push past what happened earlier and he answered the phone.
"Hello" he said starting to sit up realizing it was 8 o'clock at night.
"Hey Kiddo, I told you I'd call you back later. Did you get some rest and eat? You sound better than you did earlier." Burt said to him, happy that Blaine had at least sounded better.
"Well umm, I kind of slept all day. After I got off the phone with you I just broke down. Knowing that you were with Kurt and talking to me. I honestly kind of felt bad, and knowing that I hurt Kurt kills me and I…" he continued to ramble on but Burt interrupted.
"Blaine" He tried to say but Blaine kept going on and he knew if he didn't get him to stop he'd start crying again. So he cleared his throat to try and interrupt him again.
"Ehh Emm BLAINE!" he said louder, Blaine stopped talking.
"Good, now that I have your attention." Burt said calmly "We can talk. I don't want you to say anything until I'm done ok."
"Yes, I won't say anything" Blaine told him a little antsy as to what Burt wanted to say to him, he just went down stairs grabbed some chips and sat on the couch.
"Good, now I was thinking about something for a long time and I've talked to some others about this as well." He'd told him, though the only person he talked to about it was Rachel. However, he didn't want Kurt or Blaine to know that.
"I've been noticing how Kurt is out in New York and it's a great place for him he loves it, but I want this Christmas to be special for him. I also want this Christmas to be special for you, and you can't do that if you're at home by yourself." Burt told him, he wanted that to settle into his head before he asked him the big question.
"uh-um" he was speechless, he had no idea where this was going but he liked the sound of it.
"You said you wouldn't say anything until I was done, I just wanted that to rest in your head before I asked you a big question. I want to know if you'll accept the plane tickets I bought for you to come and visit us here in New York and spend Christmas here. Not only that I don't want you to miss your duet that you guys do every year. I was figuring I could have you meet Kurt at the ice rink in Bryant Park. The tickets are already at the airport, you're flight leaves at three in the afternoon. If you decide to come let me know when you land." Burt was done and he knew what Blaine would do, but didn't want to know until he was actually in New York.
Blaine sat there speechless phone now in his hands not even against his ear. He had absolutely not expected this one bit, but he knew how Burt was. He finally started to talk again, but was trying to find his words.
"Burt I… I" he was still absolutely speechless, he had no idea how to say thank you or how to say that he accepted what Burt was giving him.
"Don't say anything just call me when you land. Blaine you're just as much my son as Kurt is I love you both and you'll get through this. Things happen for a reason. I'll talk to you tomorrow." He told him and hung up the phone.
"Burt I real…" He'd started to say but realized he was cut off by the call ending.
