A/N – And here we take our first leap forwards in time…..
I do not own glee. If I would, there would be a lot more british music on the show.
Kurt and Blaine sat opposite each other in the italian restaurant, hand in hand, smiling at each other as Blaine fed Kurt ice cream from the sundae they were sharing. Bringing the spoon back towards Kurt's mouth, he swerved and smeared the dollop of ice cream onto Kurt's nose instead, laughing at the very unimpressed look on his boyfriend's face.
"You are SO not getting laid tonight."
"Ha! Lies." Blaine grinned, wiping Kurt's nose clean with a napkin "I promised you awesome birthday sex and you are getting it, whether you like it or not. And if memory serves" he spoke in an undertone, leaning in close to whisper in Kurt's ear "you really, really like it when I make you scream."
Kurt blushed as Blaine pulled back, trying to hide the smile creeping up on his face.
"Speaking of my later...present" he said, coolly "I want to thank you again for this one, you didn't have to do anything special..."
"Stop, honey. You're so special to me, it's only right I do something special for you. Besides, I actually have a few more to give you." Blaine smiled, rummaging around in his pockets and removing a small-ish, elegantly wrapped box and placing it in front of Kurt. kurt reached out to open it, but his hand was was slapped away away by Blaine.
"Nu-uh, not just yet. There's one last part of the opresent before you get to open it." He said, smiling cryptically. Kurt was about protest that ANOTHER present was most definitely too much, but before he could Blaine pressed a kiss to his cheek, saying "I'll be right back."
Kurt watched curiously as Blaine made his was across to the other side of the room. He spoke quietly with a waiter who handed him something. After a minute of fumbling, Blaine's voice filled the restaurant and Kurt sank back in his seat, his face flushing.
"Testing, tesing, ahem, good evening ladies and gentlemen!" Blaine had turned around, smiling charmingly at the room at large, a small microphone taped to his cheek. "I shall try not to take up too much of your time this evening, so please bear with me. I came here tonight with my beautiful boyfriend, Kurt Hummel, nhe would be the handsome man in the far corner, say hi Kurt!" Kurt waved awkwardly at the people turning to look at him as Blaine chuckled "Isn't he just gorgeous when he's blushing? Now, today is Kurt's birthday, so as a present to him I thought I'd give him, and you all, a little performance. Stefan?"
Blaine turned to the waiter at his side, who handed him a guitar and, flashing a wink at Kurt, began to play.
She was waiting at the station
He was getting off the train
He didn't have a ticket
So he had to bum through the barriers
...again.
Well the ticket inspector saw him rushing through
He said "Girl you don't know how much I missed you but
We'd better run 'cause I haven't got the funds to pay this fine."
She said "Fine"
Blaine began moving about the room, making his way towards Kurt between tables, flashing charming smiles at the women as he went.
Well so they ran out of the station and jumped onto a bus
With 2 of yesterdays travel cards and two bottles of bud
And he said "You look well nice"
At this, Blaine stopped by a young girl, saying it to her, and she blushed and giggled out a small "Thank you". He kept on addressing her for the next few lines before straightening up and carrying on towards Kurt.
Well she was wearing a skirt
And he thought she looked nice
And yes, she didn't really care about anything else
Cause she only wanted him to think that she looked nice
And he did...
But he was looking at her, yeah all funny in the eye
She said "Come on boy tell me what you're thinking
Now don't be shy."
He said alright, "I'll try
Blaine was stood in front of Kurt now, not looking at the guitar he was playing, just staring into Kurt's eyes as he sang.
"All the stars up in the sky
And the leaves in the trees
All the broken bits that make you jump up
And grassy bits in between
All the matter in the world is how much I like you."
She said "What?"
He said "Let me try and explain again...
Right birds can fly so high
And they can shit on your head
And they can almost fly into your eye
And make you feel so scared.
But when you look at them
And you see that they're beautiful
That's how I feel about you"
Kurt's eyes were filled with tears as Blaine sang and he mouthed "I love you", trying to hold himself together.
She said "Whaaat?"
He said "You"
She said "What are you talking about?"
He said "You
Right birds can fly so high
And they can shit on your head
Yeah they can almost fly into your eye
And make you feel so scared
But when you look at them
And you see that they're beautiful
Thats how i feel about you
Yeah that's how I feel about you"
She said "Thanks...I like you too"
He said "...cool."
As Blaine's song came to a close one tear escaped Kurt's eye. As the onlookers applauded, the waiter from before took the guitar away, but left the microphone. Blaine wied the tear away with his thumb and Kurt caught his hand, holding it to his face.
"Kurt," Blaine said, voice filled with emotion "the lyrics to that song...they don't even come close to describing how I feel about you. You are the most precious thing in my life, and I love you more than any amount of words can convey. We've been together almost a year and a half now, and that time with you has been the happiest of my whole life. I would do anything to make sure you are always as happy as you make me every day. You can open your present now."
Kurt, who was crying freely (along with half the women, and a few men, in the restaurant) looked down at the box in front of him, unwrapping it carefully. Inside was a small velvet box, and Kurt opened it to reveal a beautiful silver band with three diamonds embedded into it. Gasping, he looked up to see Blaine in front of him down on one knee.
"Kurt Hummel, you are perfect to me in every single way. You keep me grounded, you complete me, but most importantly you for some reason chose to let me love you, and I want nothing more than to be able to love you every day for as long as I live, if you'll let me. Kurt, will you marry me?"
A round of 'AWWW's broke out around the restaurant, but they were lost on Kurt. All he saw was Blaine; this amazing, sweet, caring man who was asking to spend the rest of his life with him.
"Yes" he choked out amid the tears "Yes, I will marry you."
Blaine let out a laugh of relief, tears streaming down his own face too, and took the ring from the box to slide onto Kurt's ring finger. Blaine beamed at Kurt for a second before Kurt was kissing him fiercing, putting all the joy and love he was feeling into one mind-blowing kiss.
They pulled apart as the restuarant exploded into applause, beaming around them. After a minute or so of congratulations Blaine gave back the microphone and everyone settled back into their meals.
"What are you thinking?" Kurt asked, taking Blaine's hand in his across the table. Blaine smiled dreamily, thumb brushing over the ring on Kurt's finger.
"You. How lucky I am. But mostly that I cannot wait for the day I walk into my classroom, and my students are calling me Mr Hummel."
Kurt had to fight back a fresh wave of tears as he pressed a kiss to Blaine's knuckles, and he spoke the one thought that was consuming his mind, heart and soul.
"Blaine Anderson, I love you."
