A/N: Wow, I feel like a moron. I somehow confused michelangelo12 with zebeck. WTF! They aren't even- GAH. I just fail when I try to do things late at night, guys. Anyway, michelangelo12's art helps inspire these drabbles, and this drabble in particular was based off of this fanart in particular (remove spaces): michelangelo12. deviantart. com/art/and-another-one-203482397


04. Girly

Dave is the one who insists that the pair of them start hanging out. It begins in study hall, then lunch, and then evolves to the exchanging of phone numbers for texting purposes.

"It'll be good for you," Dave pushes gently, usually earning no response from Kurt; the boy is too stubborn for his own good. But Dave smiles and keeps going, "You need someone like me to help you through this. You can lean on me, metaphorically-speaking."

And Kurt usually huffs and scoffs, and defensively crosses his arms over his chest; or he breaks eye contact and shrugs off any physical contact as well, a flustered or frustrated blush on his face. Dave is always so amused, too, smirking at every reaction, because Kurt's temperamental, trying-to-retain-his-manly-dignity-and-jock-status and simultaneous straight-acting-even-while-befriending-the-school's-main-gay-kid is oddly adorable. Dave has a feeling that if he were in the same position, things would be a lot different between them, and they would probably not get along as easily as they do.

Well… they get along… somewhat easily, anyway. They have a pattern. And it goes something like this:

Dave will approach Kurt with some of his "advice" or "help," such as just the other day, when Dave said, "Kurt, I see that your skin is quite affected by the sun from so much football practice; I recommend this moisturizer, it'll help!"

To which Kurt replied in the tone he usually does, "Back off, Fancy! No way is that girly shit touching me! I don't want to smell nice like fucking flowers or whatever like you do!"

"You think I smell nice?" Dave will return with a smile, and the process of Kurt getting huffy and defensive repeats.
