(Puck)
I made it through the rest of the school day Blaine-free, ignoring his existence during our only other shared class; Gym. I felt thrilled as I walked to Glee with Santana and Brittany, as they were both in my eight hour class.
"I'm so excited; I have been waiting for so long to be back in Glee again. I know I said it last year, but this year I mean it when I say I will be getting all the solos," Brittany muses to the two of us.
"Agreed, all songs should just be either you or me, or the two of us. And maybe one or two thrown in for this," Santana threw me a glance. She turned her attention back to Brittany after I didn't do what she wanted me to do: start a fight.
I didn't mind the dig, it was just Santana being Santana. Santana and I, yeah, we sort of had a special connection. She was "my girl." Not like girlfriend, obviously she had Brittany, but she was the one person who seemed to get me the most.
After we started fucking in seventh grade, the two of us kind of became a team. I counted on her when I really needed it, and she did the same for me. We usually weren't needed though, neither of us were the feelings and emotions kind of people, but we still put each other to good use every once and awhile.
"It might be a little harder now though, Brit. That Dalton kid, Shane I think, transferred, and you know he'll be getting a lot of solos. He took their glee club to regional's practically on his voice alone."
Brittany's face fell. Santana quickly backtracked upon seeing Brittany's reaction. "But still not as good as us. Besides, I'll claw his face in before he steals our solos."
I had forgotten about my confusion about Blaine earlier, and now I got a little nervous as I walked toward the place he inevitably was. What the fuck, you don't get nervous about seeing people? You're Noah fucking Puckerman, you could crush him with a single fist! Regardless, I walked into the choir room a little anxious, but playing it off as my "I'm a fucking stud" attitude.
We weren't the first in the room, Tina and Mike were in the corner, and Finn and Rachel were sitting in the front row arguing. I made his way to the back with Santana and Brittany, Finn looked at me, but I just gave him the, 'I don't do front row look.' Finn understood and just nodded. Artie, Mercedes, and Quinn came in shortly after and sat down.
Blaine and Kurt were the last to arrive. I engaged into Santana and Brittany's conversation when he saw them, not wanting to have to be looking at the couple, and, for a reason unknown to me, not wanting Blaine to think I was by myself. Why should I care?
The boyfriends sat down in the front by Rachel and Finn, and Mr. Shuester walks out of his office and into the center of the room.
"Welcome back everybody. I can confidently say this is going to be our best year yet. Even though our trip to nationals was pretty shaky last year, (a collective murmur of agreement was heard throughout the glee kids) our trip to internationals,"he emphasized internationals to a round of cheering from most of the club, "will result in hopefully first place. Before we get down to what we are going to be working on, I have an introduction to make. Now most of you already know him, but please welcome Mr. Blaine Anderson to our family!"
I can't help but to watch as Blaine nervously gets up to stand by Will in front of the club. Again, I admire just how hot Blaine is. Can I call another guy hot? Yeah I can, I just know another stud when I see one, that's all. But god his face is gorgeous. I stop thinking after gorgeous. Gorgeous? Maybe that's getting a little gay. Ugh.
Blaine stops my train of thought by starting to speak. "Hi guys," He's nervous. God he's cute when he's fidgeting. Wait cute? I missed most of Blaine's speech while thinking, and comes back in on "So I think the best way to do that is by doing a welcome song. I know you all have heard me sing, but now think about me in New Directions." Blaine smiles and I automatically smile to. I notice how Blaine is looking at a lot of people, but has yet to look my way. The band gets the song ready and before Blaine starts his verse, he finally locks eyes with mine.
When our eyes connect, all I can think to do is widen my smile and give him a little nod. At this, Blaine's nervous smile also widens and he looks down ready to start his song.
Come on over, come on over baby,
Come on over, come on over baby
Come on over, come on over baby
ya ya ya ya,
Come on over, come on over baby
The song picks up and all the band members come in. Blaine's visibly more comfortable and starts really doing the song justice.
Hey boy don't you know I got something going on,
I got an invitation don't you keep me waiting all night long
I know you know, you know, so baby don't
pretend you wont keep me guessing if ya
you will you wont dont want to play a game with you baby
Oh my god he's even sexier when he sings. I'm dumbfounded by the raw talent of the ex-warbler, from his voice to sheer stage presence. Blaine's looking at everybody but me as he sings the first verse, but right as the chorus picks up Blaine shifts his eyes to fit into mine.
All I want is you
Come over here baby
All I want is you
You know you make me go crazy
All I want is you
Now baby don't be shy youd better cross the line
I wanna love you right cuz all I want is you
My cock is twitching from watching the performance and the shyness of Blaine's eyes every time they find my own. Fuck Fuck Fuck! How the hell am I getting hard on this shit! Yeah he's hot but I don't fucking like dudes!
I'm not just talkin about your sexuality
But I can't help myself when you put your hands on me,
Its paradise when you and I
Get close, get tight
Go on all night, I wanna play a game with you baby,
listen to me,
I adjusts himself (as casually as possible) and start to not watch the performance. I try to think about anything but the boy who's clearly yelling at me to go down their and fuck his brains out.
All I want is you, now baby don't be shy
youd better cross the line
I'm gonna love you right cause all I want is you
all I want is you,
all I want is you,
you make me go crazy
all I want is you
now baby don't be shy
you'd better cross the line
I'm gonna love you Right cause
All I WANT IS YOU!
Blaine's performance ends with a very loud applause from everyone, and with a smile, the boy goes and sits down by Kurt.
We start practicing and discussing what the upcoming year will bring and how they want to tackle it. Throughout this and vocal warm ups, site reading a new piece, and talking about the weeks assignment, I'm is having a mental war with himself.
Ok, you were just getting a boner from the raw sexiness of the song and how well he was performing it, not for the actual person. That may be true, but don't tell me you don't want to go over there now and give him everything he was just asking for? Came the little voice in Puck's head. Fuck you! That's just because I haven't had sex in like three days. Has thinking about a guy ever happened before? Well there were a few times with Finn, and a few times I checked out Sam's ass, but that was just admiring right? Not when you want to be touching. FUCK it all, it's not like I'm going to act on it. There, that's the difference!
I didn't know what to think. I did decide, however, whatever these feelings were; they were not to be acted upon. I rejoined the club mentally, soon enough to get my assignment for next week (researching and picking three ballads, and three up-tempo songs you recommend performing at sectionals), and then started to pack up.
I didn't exactly watch him leave, more I felt when Blaine left with Kurt. I let out a sigh of relief, and then walked with Finn and Rachel to the parking lot.
"It's going to be a really good year. Now that we have Blaine's added talent, Internationals is as good as mine," Rachel simply bubbled as they walked out to the parking lot. After a look from Finn, she added, a little reluctantly, "I mean all of ours of course."
Yet again people are talking about him when I'm just trying to mind my own business. But hey, Finn has hanged out with him a couple times, and the topic has already started so why not?"You guys have hanged out with him a couple times, does he seem pretty cool?" I ask them, trying to say it as casually as possible.
"Oh my gosh yes, Blaine Ex Warbler is simply amazing. Very, very funny and a genuinely nice guy!" Rachel chimes in almost immediately.
I expected this from Rachel, but I really only cared about what Finn had to say. "And what do you think? How much, umm, like Kurt is he?"
Finn laughs and smiles. "I know what you're getting at. Truth is you probably wouldn't know he was gay if it wasn't common knowledge. We even talk about football sometimes, he's wondering if he could try out for the team. He's a pretty cool guy if you get to know him."
Rachel smiles at her boyfriends answer, holding Finn's hand tighter. I leave them at their car once they start making out. I walk away by myself, until I spot another couple, also making out. An idea forms in my head, and I just need to act on it. I make my way over to Santana and Brittany, and force their mouths apart.
"Hey Brittany, could I borrow Santana for awhile?"
(Blaine)
I walked into the choir room talking with Kurt about the musical Funny Girl, and our opinions on whether or not it was Barbra's best, only to quickly scan the seats to see who was already their. Turns out we were the last ones in, so we took our seats by Rachel and Finn. Kurt sitting next to Rachel and myself on Kurt's other side. Mr. Shuester came in and said a short little speech about how amazing this year was going to be, and then it was my turn.
I had decided on Christina Aguilera's "Come on Over Baby" simply because Kurt wanted to hear him sing that song. He had offered to sing it to him right then and there, but Kurt said he wanted it to be live and with a whole band. I was a little nervous at how this was going to go over. I repeatedly told Kurt that I thought this song was a little to come-on-ish, and that most of the guys will probably get turned off by this performance. But Kurt had insisted and when did I ever really not give Kurt what he asked for? I gave a short little speech about how excited I was to get to know all of them, and was about to start my song when I did the one thing I told himself I wasn't going to do: Look at that Puck kid.
After the fiasco that happened fifth hour, I wanted nothing but to apologize to him and tell him that I wasn't some gay creep. I was a little nervous coming in here and talking with him, knowing that he did just catch me very, very clearly checking out his body. I still didn't know what that first smile was about, but he looked pretty pissed the rest of the class period.
So I did it, the band was getting ready, and I just did it because I was telling myself not to. When I did look Puck's way, I was very surprised to see Puck flash me a big smile and an encouraging nod. Thank god, he doesn't think I'm a creep. I smiled to myself more then to Puck as I looked down and started up my song.
I was doing so well, I could tell by all of their faces. Kurt was simply smiling to himself while closing his eyes and whispering along. Rachel, Mercedes, Tina, and Quinn were all staring at me with wanting, appreciative eyes. Mike, Finn, Sam, and Artie were all looking impressed, and not weirded out by my song choice. Their all loving it! Well I think they all are. When I hit the first chorus, I glance for second time over to Puck. He's staring with rapt attention, with an almost dumbfounded look on his face, as his mouth was half open. I look away, Wow I most be really good to make him that immersed in this. I should kick it up a notch.
I start dancing and showing them how I can just flow with the song. Some cat calls are made and I'm getting seriously pumped now. A few more shy glances Puck's way and I can tell that he's quite enjoying this. I really give it all at the final chorus, but I notice that Puck is now stoned face, looking away. Huh I can't figure this guy out was all I could think.
The song ends to an enormous applause. Yep. I can't believe I ever doubted coming here. This glee club is amazing. I take my seat by Kurt, who gives me a big smile before turning back to Rachel to discuss something. That's it? A smile? I would have thought a little more would have been appropriate as it was his song choice, but whatever. I return my attention to Mr. Shue for the remainder of the lesson. We are then dismissed and I walk with Kurt back to our cars.
"Today went so well Kurt; I can't tell you how excited I am to be here. I mean, I expected some rude comments or a shove here or there, but instead I got nothing. Your, no sorry, our glee club is so inviting, it's all just amazing."
"I'm glad you're fitting in Blaine. This year is going to be something else."
The way Kurt said "Something else" discomforted me. And also why was Kurt being so short with me?
We got to Kurt's car and Kurt turned to face me. Kurt quickly pecked me on the lips and before I could pull Kurt's face to stay, Kurt was already half into his car saying goodbye, goodnight, and I love you.
"Bye," was all I could get out before Kurt was driving away with a blown kiss. Yeah that was definitely short. Kurt usually wants a long hug and deep kiss before going, so why is he pulling away so fast and zooming out of here. He didn't even say he was glad I was here too.
Thoughts of Kurt's odd behavior plagued me on the ride home, while I did my schoolwork, and while I was getting ready for bed. Is he hiding something from me? I'll just take him out to coffee tomorrow morning and see if I can get down to the bottom of this. Just relax Blaine; I'm sure everything is fine. You had an amazing day and you'll probably have an amazing year.
I text Kurt asking for a coffee date in the morning, but I get no response back. I wait as long as possible before drifting to sleep. Well then we'll have coffee on Wednesday,being my final thought.
(Kurt)
I settled down for bed and brought my phone with me. I send out a text as I pull my comforter over myself.
Sorry for not getting to spend more time with you today. Promise we can hang out more sometime this week – K
It's Ok. Our little looks across the hallways and classrooms got me going each time. :). I noticed Blaine was with you today. :(. – D
I told you he was going to transfer Dave. – K
I know I just didn't believe it. So when are you going to break the news to him – D
I also told you I don't know what I want to do! Let's just hang out tomorrow night OK? Maybe do more of what we did at GAP? – K
Anytime you want. Maybe I could come over now? – D
Haha no. Tommorow night. I'll see you then. Goodnight with a kiss. – K
Goodnight with some tongue – D
I smiled to myself as I put my phone down. I only felt a little guilty cheating on Blaine. After all, you can't feel to guilty when you're having so much fun.
A/N – Oh Shit! Kurt and Karofsky? Thoughts?
