"Are you sure about this?" Kurt asked as Sebastian parked in the McKinley lot. "I don't want you to get hurt because of me."
"Kurt, I can take care of myself," Sebastian promised. "Now where are these guys?"
"Hey, look who it is, Kurt homo," a voice sneered. Sebastian saw Kurt cringe as two boys, one brunet and one blond, walk over, both grinning. "Is this your boyfriend, Kurt?"
"No," Kurt whispered before being thrown against the chain-link fence. The brunet, Sebastian figured was Blaine, smirked and cornered Kurt as the blond, Sam, blocked Sebastian's way.
"Come on, Hummel, loosen up," Blaine said, putting an arm around Kurt, who shivered at the mere touch.
"Leave him alone," Sebastian snapped. Blaine looked surprised and walked over to face Sebastian, acting like the obvious height difference was nothing.
"What are you gonna do if I don't, huh?" he goaded. "Hit me? I dare you."
"Sebastian, don't do it!" Kurt called out, but Sam slapped a hand over his mouth.
"Shut up, faggot," Sam hissed. "Just keep your mouth shut for once."
"What is going on here?" a new voice demanded. Sebastian looked up to see three girls heading their way, one short brunette, one large black girl, and one Latina girl who looked like she would cut a bitch. "Anderson, Evans, don't either of you have anything better to do than pick on Kurt?"
"Shut it, Jewberry," Blaine retorted. "I doubt any of you lovely ladies could do anything about this anyway."
"Shove the flattery up your ass, Hobbit, and step back," the Latina girl said. Sebastian smirked at the way she presented herself. His eyes widened as the girl proceeded to take a razor blade from her ponytail.
"Dude, she carries razor blades?" Sam whispered, releasing Kurt.
"That's right, Trouty Mouth, now back the hell up," she ordered. Sam complied and stood against the fence. "You too, Gel-Head," she snapped.
"Bite me, skank," Blaine shot back. Kurt watched as Santana raised an eyebrow and slapped Blaine across the face. Rachel and Mercedes rushed forward to pull her back.
"You bitch!" Blaine yelled, holding his cheek. "I'm going to get you expelled for this!"
"Good luck with that, Blainers. You deserved it anyway," Kurt couldn't help adding.
"Shut the fuck up, Hummel, or I'll kick your fairy ass," the short brunet shouted.
"You'll have to go through us first." Sebastian and the three girls stepped in front of Kurt and folded their arms.
"You're all gonna regret this. I swear to God, you'll regret this!" Blaine stormed off, Sam chasing after him.
"Who is this handsome man who came to protect our boy?" Mercedes asked. Kurt blushed.
"Ladies, this is Sebastian Smythe," Kurt introduced. "Sebastian, this is Rachel Berry, Mercedes Jones, and Santana Lopez." Sebastian shook the girls' hands and Mercedes winked at Kurt.
"You know, when we said spy, we didn't mean fall in love with him," Rachel teased, making Kurt turn a new shade of red.
"As much as I hate to admit it, Berry's got a point, Porcelain," Santana agreed. "I can see the lust in your eyes."
"Oh, you can recognize it too? I see the same thing when you look at Brittany," Kurt shot back with a grin. Sebastian smiled, seeing Kurt go back and forth with his friends, but he also felt a twinge of excitement when the girl named Rachel joked that Kurt was in love with him.
"No, what you see when I look at Brittany is pride for my best friend," Santana retorted.
"So you're foaming at the mouth for your best friend?" Kurt snickered.
"Geez, you two are like an old married couple," Mercedes observed. "Thing is, you're both gay, so Kurt flirts with all the boys and Santana with all the girls."
"If you think I'm going to marry a girl in any way whatsoever, you're living in some depraved Inception-like world, 'Cedes," Kurt said huffily.
"I thought all you ever watched were musicals," Santana put in. "Unless you saw DiCaprio singing Streisand in the nude, you must be crazy."
"It seems like you're having fun, Kurt, so I'm going to go," Sebastian said, but Kurt grabbed his arm.
"Don't go. We're going to get coffee, okay?" Kurt promised. "It's platonic!" he hissed to the now-leering girls.
"Sure it is," Rachel said before the three walked away.
"It was nice seeing you smile, Kurt," Sebastian said as they sat across from each other at the Lima Bean. "You have the most beautiful smile." Kurt blushed and sipped his coffee.
"Don't listen to the girls. You know how girls are, it's always gossip this, gossip that."
"I'm going to be blunt. You like me, don't you?" Kurt fidgeted in his seat, but he didn't say anything, confirming Sebastian's suspicions. "You are."
"Maybe…a little bit," Kurt admitted. "But how can I say no? You're hot." Kurt's eyes widened and he covered his mouth. "Oh my Gaga, did I just say that?"
"You did," Sebastian confirmed.
"Oh my…" Kurt buried his head in his hands.
"Hey, it's fine, come on. Let's go outside." Sebastian stood up and offered his hand to Kurt, who accepted it and the two boys went into the parking lot. "I like you too." And without a word, Sebastian brushed a strand of Kurt's hair from his eyes and kissed him. Kurt didn't resist, instead he pulled Sebastian closer.
"Wow, that was my first kiss…from a guy," he said after they parted a few moments later.
"From a…what do you mean from a guy?" Sebastian looked scandalized and Kurt blanched.
