A/N: Hello! Thanks to my reviewer! I love this story too! Okay, so yeah. Uh, this is a strictly Kurt/Wesley chapter. You get more of a background on Blaine and Sebastian the meerkat's relationship. So, enjoy Kurt and Wes!
Chapter 3
Kurt left Blaine to sleep, and started to think about his thoughts. He loved Blaine. That was obvious, but it still hurt him every time he thought about Sebastian and Blaine together. He was going to be with Blaine. He'd already promised him that, but he couldn't help but think that Sebastian was going to be lurking.
"He hated himself you know."
A familiar voice said to him. Kurt turned and saw Wes standing there. He saluted Wes, and Wes nodded back at him. He dropped the salute and walked to Wes and hugged him. Kurt had always loved Wes. Wes was one of his best friends at Dalton, then again when he transferred back to McKinley. Wes broke the hug and looked at him.
"How bad was it?"
"Sebastian screwed him over bad. They were together for almost a year. He was the shittiest boyfriend Blaine had. You could tell when Sebastian and Blaine were fighting. Blaine would come back all pissed and muttering 'I can't believe I left Kurt for this.'"
That stopped Kurt in his tracks. Wes limped up next to him and they found a bench and sat down on it. Kurt couldn't believe Wes was telling him all about this. It kept him from having to go track him down and ask him about it.
"He said that?"
"Several times. I'd convinced him, with help from Nick and Jeff to track you down. That's when he'd enlisted. Rachel was hesitant to tell us where you were. Finn could tell you were broken down, and that's when he said you'd finished Nursing school and had gone to enlist in the Army. He had a panic attack Kurt. It was so bad. I'd spent two days with him after that calming him down. That's when he'd made the decision to do it. He'd made the decision to enlist. He was hoping to run into you. Of course, Sebastian wasn't happy about it."
"What did he say?"
"He asked why he was going. Blaine told him that things between him and Sebastian had never worked, and that he'd made a mistake leaving you. Sebastian didn't take kindly to that. I was there for that argument. It was in the Warbler common room. Blaine had come back for a visit, and Sebastian was there. He'd made the announcement that he was enlisting. Sebastian knew somehow that you'd enlisted and said that you'd been the shadow in their relationship for way too long. Blaine denied it, saying that Sebastian had been a dick and that he was insecure. The icing on the cake was when Blaine said he was moving out of their apartment. He moved out, enlisted and moved out two days later. Then he moved in with me. I wasn't going to let him go alone, so I'd enlisted. We ended up in Oklahoma, Colorado, Turkey, Germany briefly, and then here in Afghanistan. When we were deployed, we were stationed at Baumholder out of Germany. I suppose since I'm not injured too bad, they'll let me stay and then send me back."
"I was stationed at Ramstein Air Base. Before I requested the transfer here, I was getting ready to go to Landstuhl and do the rest of my service there. I didn't enlist to run."
"I know. You're bigger than that. Just know that Blaine does love you, Kurt. And always has. So, you look good, Kurt."
"Thanks Wes. So do you. So, how are Nick and Jeff? Did they finally get together?"
"They did. Had a commitment ceremony right before Blaine and I left. You were sorely missed."
"Thanks dude. I appreciate that. You three were there for Blaine and I in the toughest parts of our relationship. And the nice ones too. I keep a picture of him and I on my nightstand table."
"Which one?"
"The one of us at the Dalton carnival."
"With the big stuffed bear?"
"That's the one."
"Blaine always says that's your best picture as a couple. It reflects the love that you both had-have for each other. He kept the bear. It's in his new apartment in Westerville."
Kurt gasped. He thought that Blaine would've gotten rid of the bear, but with all the time, effort and money Kurt put forth playing ring toss for the bear, he was honored Blaine kept it.
"He also kept the picture. It's in his belongings. Which seemed to have been saved, thank god. He'd never forgive himself if the picture was damaged."
"I know. Look, Wes. You need to get back into your bed. I need to go get into mine, because I need sleep for just a couple hours. So, Captain Montgomery, I'll escort you to your bed, make sure you take your medications, and then go back to my barrack. It's gonna be a long road. For all of us."
Wes nodded and watched Kurt lead him back to the medical building. He got Wes securely into bed, and then made sure his medicine was taken. He walked down the row of beds until he reached Blaine's. He saw that Blaine was safe and secure. Laying in his bed, sleeping. Kurt reached down and took one set of his dog tags off. He opened Blaine's hand and stuck one pair in his hand. He kissed his forehead one more time. Examined him, then made notes on his chart and went back to his bed. Blaine was going to need him through this recovery process, and it was going to be a tough one.
A/N2: Sorry about the length of the chapter. It needed to be a filler to give their situations more of a backstory! Promise, the next one will be a lot more longer!
