It took all day to work out Wes's plan but by 6 PM everything was set. Blaine was difficult to persuade but he eventually gave in because he knew it was his only way.
"Mercedes, why are you dragging me to karaoke?" Kurt whined.
"You need a little more fun in your life. You've been a mess since-," Mercedes said but when she saw Kurt's expression darken she stopped herself.
"Look, I know you are going through a really tough time but I think this will really cheer you up. I promise."
She gave Kurt a hug and as he separated himself from her he knew he could always trust her. There was nothing to worry about. Even though it killed him to go back to his and Blaine's favorite place maybe he did need this. Maybe he needed just to let loose a bit.
"You have any song in mind?" Mercedes asked cheerfully, seeing a slight smile come across Kurt's face.
"I have no idea. It's felt like forever since I have sung. I haven't really been in the mood…"
"Which is exactly why I decided that you need to come here. Singing always seems to cheer up."
Mercedes was right, of course, but Kurt still felt like there was a gaping hole in his life. He was still living with Mercedes and he couldn't crash there forever. He needed Blaine back. No…he needed to stop thinking about him.
"Here we are," said Mercedes as she led Kurt into Rebecca's karaoke.
Kurt let out a huge breathe and tried to tell himself that everything was fine. It was fine. As he looked around the room though, everything seemed to remind him of Blaine. The stage was full of so many of their happy memories but the feeling he got from looking at the stage was anything but happy. He couldn't handle it. He turned around quickly and started to walk out.
"Kurt! What are you doing?"
"Mercedes, I – I'm sorry. This was a bad idea. I – I don't know. I guess it was just too soon or something. I'm sorry but I can't do this," Kurt said shakily.
But just as he was about to tell open the door he heard something he thought he would never get the chance to hear again. It was Blaine's voice – Blaine's beautiful voice. Was he making it up? Was it all in his head? He was scared to turn around but he had to because, well, it just had to be him.
He turned around slowly and saw him. It was Blaine. It was his beautiful Blaine and he almost broke down just from seeing his face once again. How long had it been? Two weeks that they hadn't seen each other and seeing him again was like seeing him for the first time once again. Mercedes was grinning like a maniac but Kurt paid no attention to her. All he could see was Blaine.
And then he started to hear the words.
I have been searching for your touch
Unlike any touch I've ever known
And I never thought about you much
Until I'm broken down and all alone
Though I don't understand the meaning of love
I do not mind if I die trying
Took it for granted when you lifted me up
Blaine was looking down, too afraid to see if Kurt was watching him or not. Hell, he probably left the moment he saw him but as he started to sing the chorus he had to look up and see if Kurt was there. He was able to make out that angelic face and he sang the chorus he didn't take his eyes off it.
I'm asking for your help
I am going through hell
Afraid nothing can save me but the sound of your voice
You cut out all the noise
And now that I can see mistakes so clearly now
I'd kill if I could take you back
But how?
But how?
Kurt was looking straight at him and Blaine was full of so much emotion just from his look that it was difficult to continue singing. He continued on though because he needed Kurt to hear this and he didn't know how to better say it.
I have been bind by the shackles of love
And I don't mind if I die tied up
Took it for granted when you lifted me up
I'm asking for your help
I am going through hell
Afraid nothing can save me but the sound of your voice
You cut out all the noise
And now that I can see mistakes so clearly now
I'd kill if I could take you back
But how?
But how?
But how?
But how?
Tears were streaming down Kurt's face as he saw the raw emotion from Blaine. What did it mean? Did he really want Kurt back?
Oh yeah
Why must we be so ugly?
And please do not think ill of me
Why does the one you love
Become the one who makes you want to cry?
Why?
Why?
Why?
And how?
How?
Though I don't understand the meaning of love
I do not mind if I die trying
I do not mind if I die trying
I do not mind if I die trying
Blaine looked directly at Kurt, tears streaming also down his face. He should have done this the second they broke up but he was scared. He thought that Kurt would never forgive him. He thought he was unforgivable even though it was all such a mess in the first place. He never had any affair. Of course, he didn't. He would never ever do that to Kurt. Never.
He jumped off the stage and started to walk to Kurt.
Kurt didn't know what to do with himself. He knew he must look like a wreck while Blaine was looking gorgeous, like usual. Even crying wouldn't make Blaine look any less handsome.
Before he knew he felt Blaine's touch on his face, trying to brush off his tears. Kurt let out a nervous laugh and said, "I – I don't know what to say."
Blaine brushed Kurt's lips and said, "You don't need to say anything."
And as his lips started to touch Kurt's he thought he was going to explode. Oh, how he missed kissing those lips. He felt Kurt's hand on his face and he never wanted to part from him again. Ever. They would be stuck like that forever. That's how he wanted it to be.
"Blaine," said Kurt hesitantly as he pulled away from the kiss.
"I – I've missed you so much," Kurt said softly.
"Hey, please don't cry," said Blaine, who started to brush Kurt's tears off his face.
"I – I'm sorry."
"Look at me, Kurt," Blaine said, as he held up Kurt's chin to his face. "I meant every single word I said in that song, you understand? These past two weeks have been hell for me. I just missed you so much. I couldn't do anything without knowing you were there. I needed to see you. I needed to touch you. I – I needed to hear your voice so badly."
Was this real? Was Kurt really hearing this? It felt so surreal. He had thought of this moment in his head multiple times but he never thought that it would happen. Blaine wanted him back? Kurt looked at Blaine intensely to make sure that it wasn't a dream and then he heard Blaine whisper hesitantly, "Will - will you sing something for me?"
At first Kurt was speechless and then he realized that he had to sing because music was the easiest way for him to communicate so he nodded slowly and walked over to the stage. He noticed Rebecca smiling at him and he realized that someone must have planned this all out because usually there were a ton of people waiting to sing and he just happened to be able to sing now. But, what did it matter anyway? Blaine had just sung him a beautiful song. They had just kissed. All the emotions he had felt for the past two weeks were getting to be too much for him to handle. H needed to let it out. He needed to sing.
In your brown eyes, walked away
In your brown eyes, couldn't stay
In your brown eyes, you watch her go
And turn the record on
And wonder what went wrong
What went wrong?
If everything was everything
But everything is over
Everything could be everything
If only we were older
Kurt's voice was so beautiful. How had Blaine lived without it?
Guess it's just a silly song about you
And how I lost you
And your brown eyes
In your brown eyes, I was feeling low
Because they're brown eyes and you never know
Got some brown eyes, but a soft face
I knew that it was wrong
So baby, turn the record on
Play that song
Where everything was everything
But everything is over
Everything could be everything
If only we were older
Guess it's just a silly song about you
And how I lost you
And your brown eyes
Honey yeah, it's no surprise
I got lost in your brown eyes
Kurt looked directly in Blaine's beautiful brown eyes and he sang the last few lines.
In your brown eyes
Brown, brown eyes
Your brown eyes
Brown, brown eyes
Got some brown eyes
Brown, brown eyes
Brown eyes
As Kurt finished he realized that Blaine wasn't there anymore. Had he left? But before he could panic for too long, he felt Blaine's hand on his back and when he turned around he saw the one he loved.
"You didn't lose me, Kurt. I promise. You never did and you never will," Blaine whispered to Kurt.
"I love you," whispered Kurt.
"And I love you more than anything."
THE END
- Sorry this was such a short fanfic. It was just my first one and I'm still not sure if I should write more. I know I love to read fanfic, I'm just not so sure I'm really cut out for writing it. I just always think over fanfic in my head and think of other ways to tell the story so that's why I thought I would give it a go. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed it!
- The song that Blaine sung was How by Maroon 5 which is such a glorious song. I recommend you all listen to you NOW.
= Kurt sang Lady Gaga, of course. It's called Brown Eyes and I just thought it worked perfectly for what Kurt had just been through.
- Also, the title (Want You Here Tonight) is from the song I Remember by Damien Rice, which is an AMAZING song that kind of inspired me to write this fanfic. I wanted to find some way to integrate the song in the story but it just didn't fit so well. Still, I really recommend you listen to you since it is just raw emotion and perfection.
