I'M BACK! I know I know it's been a long time but I just kind of had writer's block and I just procrastinated writing this…don't know why. I LOVED the second half of season 1 and I liked where they went with FinnxKurt although I would've loved just one kiss. Anyway I've had most of this chapter written out since February and I finally finished it. I hope you enjoy it and remember to review!
"I can see it now…Mr. and Mr. Hudson-Hummel!" joked Mercedes. Kurt, Mercedes, Artie, and Tina decided to have an after school gossip session inside the choir room. Artie hadn't volunteered to attend this event but what can you do when you're stuck in a wheelchair and you're being pushed by three different people. They spent the better half of an hour talking about the newly formed relationship between the countertenor and the quarterback of his dreams. Their conversation came to a halt when Mr. Shuester walked into the room. "Hey! I see you guys can't get enough of this place either," he chuckled, "well I just came by to pick up some sheet music and I have to lock up."
Everyone bid farewell to Mr. Shuester as they made their way towards to the parking lot. "You got anything planned with the boyfriend?" Tina asked. Kurt just smiled, "Not yet but I'll wait to see if he texts me first." They broke out into hysterical laughter and went their separate ways. Kurt climbed into his "baby" and was about to start the ignition just as his phone vibrated.
Kurt: Hello?
Finn: Hey! What do you have planned later? Well forget about it because we're going out!
Kurt: Whoa whoa there Hudson…what if I do have something to do?
Finn:…HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Good one Kurt. I see you now. Talk to you in a second.
Now the slightest shade of red, Kurt started the car and waited for the other boy to reach him. He quickly looked in the mirror to fix any stray hair that may disgrace his appearance. As he fixed his hair the passenger's door opened and in came Finn. "You getting all dolled up for me?" Finn asked, grinning widely. "Yes and no. I always want to look good but it is an incentive that I now have someone to look good for."
He knew that Finn was just as nervous as he was because he was keeping a beat with his foot and hands. It was a nervous habit that Kurt had picked up on when he watched Finn interact with Rachel. The taller boy always seemed to be nervous around Rachel so he would usually drum on his leg and hit the appropriate bass pedal beat with his foot. Kurt just smiled at the quarterback and offered him his hand. Finn took it graciously and pulled the smaller boy in for a small, but passionate kiss. "I thought today would never end." Finn said in a melodramatic voice. "Well it has and now we have the rest of the day to do something. What did you have in mind when you asked me to cancel my plans today? This better be good hun," he said trying to sound as annoyed as he could. "Not to sound cocky or anything but when you're spending time with me it's bound to be good, pup!"
Kurt just stared with a look of confusion on his face. "Pup?" Kurt asked. "Yeah. Well you called me hun and I couldn't really think of an affectionate name for you. Pup was the first thing that popped into my head. Do you not like it? Because I can call you something else if you want," he finished quickly. He hoped that he didn't offend the soprano in anyway because that would put a major damper on the rest of their date. "It's not that I don't like it's just…" Kurt retorted stopping short of his explanation to catch his breath. It hit him right when he least expected it. Hot tears were now running down his cheeks as he gasped for air. Alarmed and very apologetic, Finn instinctively pulled him into a tight embrace while rubbing circles on his back. "I'm so sorry Kurt! I didn't mean to make you upset! I swear it sounded like a cute name in my head! I'm not very good with names as you can tell. When I thought Quinn's baby was mine I told her that we should name her Drizzle and Quinn hated it and got angry at me and please don't be angry with me," Finn spouted off as quickly as he could with only one breath. Kurt choked back a few sobs and pulled away from Finn's warm embrace. "I'm s-sorry. I'll explain but first can we leave this parking lot? I don't want anybody to see me crying like a baby," Kurt responded quietly. Finn nodded and exited the vehicle only to appear on the driver's side. "I'll drive." Finn stated. He didn't even think to ask Kurt for permission to drive his "baby". But Kurt knew that in his state of being he was in neither in the mood nor condition to drive. So he complied with Finn's command and jumped over to the passenger's seat. Finn climbed in and looked at his teary eyed boyfriend only to see that he was just looking out the window. The quarterback took Kurt's hand in his and began to pull out of the parking lot.
Finn had no idea where to go. He was certain that if he took Kurt home in his current state, Mr. Hummel would crush him for causing his only son to cry. So Finn did the only logical thing; he began to driving to his own house. Kurt took his eyes off the window long enough to notice that he wasn't too thrilled about their destination. "Make a right at next street Finn," Kurt quietly but firmly commanded. Finn was confused as to where Kurt wanted to go but he was in no place to argue so he did as he was told. The remainder of the drive was in silence with the only occasional sound being Kurt giving directions. Soon enough they arrived to Kurt's desired location. It was a decently vacant park with a big pond in the middle of it. Across from where they had parked was a small little dock where one could fish. The play area was off to the right and right behind that was another parking area. Finn had passed by this park so many times but had only stopped here a handful of times.
As soon as the engine was turned off, Kurt exited the vehicle and walked briskly away. Finn quickly followed the smaller boy. He walked towards a bench that was located in between two gazebos and right behind those, were the bathrooms. Kurt gracefully took a seat and stared off at the pond. Finn sat right next to him and allowed him to gaze on, waiting patiently for his explanation. A cool breeze came by only making Kurt shiver slightly. The taller boy noticed this and gave him his letterman jacket, as cliché as it was, to keep the countertenor warm. Kurt actually smiled Finn for the first time since the sudden outburst of tears. "My mom and I used to come here every Friday until my dad finished up at the shop when I was about 5. She would let me play on the jungle gym and sometimes she would even play with me when it wasn't too crowded. But she usually just let me play while she watched," he said looking over at the jungle gym. "After some time she would call my name out and start jogging along the walking path knowing full well that I would follow her. We would race around the path until we were tired and she always let me win. To this day, she doesn't know that I didn't run my hardest hoping that she would win at least once," Finn could tell that his story was getting harder to tell by the way Kurt looked around and avoided his eyes. Finn reached out and held Kurt's hand while giving it a gentle squeeze, "But I digress. After our exhausting race we would sit on this bench and watch others jog by. This park is a pretty common place to walk your dogs so whenever a dog would pass by me I would ask the owner if I could pet them. They hardly ever refused. I would pet them and hug them and love them as if they were my own. One day I asked my mom if I could get a dog. She just smiled at me and said: "I don't know. You're handful as it is Kurt. You're my one and only pup. I don't know if I could handle two of you." I would bark at her, run around on all fours as tried to catch me. When she did get a hold of me, she would tickle me to the ground until we were both laying on the grass laughing." Kurt finished looking down at the grass beside the bench that held memories dear to his heart.
"I'm sorry Kurt," Finn replied quietly. "It must be hard not having your mom and not have anybody to talk to about it for so long…you guys were close huh?"
"Yeah…she was the first person and I thought the only person who would ever call me pup," Kurt replied softly. He let a tear roll down his cheek as Finn just watched him grieve his mother. "And I know that crying like a baby won't bring her back, but it doesn't seem to stop me from trying," Kurt chuckled.
The only sound that could be heard was the gentle rustling of the leaves in the wind. Finn knew he couldn't just stand back and watch the Kurt cry anymore so he did what came naturally.
Why do birds suddenly appear,
Every time you are near?
Just like me they long to be
Close to you
At the sound of Finn's voice, Kurt turned slightly to stare at his now scarlet red boyfriend. Kurt was only serenaded on his birthdays so to have anybody, especially Finn, sing exclusively to him was beyond romantic. The soprano knew he couldn't just let the quarterback carry this tune alone so he decided to sing as best he could…past the tears.
Why do stars fall down from the sky,
Every time you walk by?
Just like me they long to be
Close to you
Finn knew that once Kurt sang the small but the now meaningful verse, he had to continue. He moved in closer to his petite boyfriend and sang.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a fantasy
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
And golden star light in your eyes of green
Kurt giggled slightly at the altered impromptu lyrics. He quickly stifled the remainder of his laughter and continued the duet.
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me they long to be close to you
The quarterback stood up and, as elegantly as possible, held out his hand. Kurt took it gracefully and wrapped his arms around Finn's neck, which proved to be a harder task than previously thought due to their dramatic height difference. Finn leaned down and allowed the soprano to effortlessly hold on to him meanwhile resting his own hands on Kurt's waist. They danced and hummed along to the instrumental interlude they knew took place in the song. Kurt rested his head on his boyfriend's chest and relished in the vibrations his humming was creating. Finn placed a small kiss on the smaller boy's head before they both began to sing again, this time in harmony.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a fantasy
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
And golden star light in your eyes of green
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me they long to be
Close to you
Just like me they long to be
Close to you
"Thank you," broke the now palpable silence. "For what?" the now grinning quarterback replied, "For singing to you? I do that to you all the time in glee club…I just do it when you're not looking, which is almost never." Kurt was now the slightest tinge of red. "Sorry about the whole "watching your every move" thing."
Finn just gave his petite boyfriend one of his famous lopsided grins and began to chuckle. Kurt just watched as the taller boy stole his heart with his warm smile and an even warmer embrace. "How about I take you home? You're dad is probably worried about you. Plus I'm pretty hungry and throughout our little duet I could feel your stomach growling so much I thought YOU were pregnant for a second…you're not, are you? Because if you are I mean I guess we work something out between the baby's daddy and-"
"Finn, boy's can't get pregnant. Not even homosexuals" Kurt replied, giggling madly. With his brow furrowed in thought, the taller boy led a nonstop laughter Kurt to the car.
"ARE YOU SERIOUS?" Mercedes and Tina yelled in unison through the phone. They were always on that party line. "What did you slip him?" Mercedes jibed.
"Nothing but my lips," Kurt said savoring in the newly found pleasure they call bragging. They continued with questions, jokes, and the occasional squeal for the better half of two hours. He gave them a quick goodbye and hung up before either of them could object. Kurt practically pranced upstairs, being as happy as he was, to see where his dad was. "Dad!" he cried out throughout the empty house. His search finally led him to the kitchen, where Kurt found a note on the counter.
Kurt,
I'll be home late. Order take out...leave some for me.
Dad
Kurt rolled his eyes at the last part. He walked over to the living room to put a movie on while he found what he wanted to eat. As he reached for the remote, his cell phone started to vibrate in his pocket, scaring Kurt only slightly. He half expected for it to be Mercedes wanting to continue their previous conversation. He looked down at the screen and blushed immediately. It had to be the only four letter word in any language that had this effect on him. Finn. Kurt collected himself as best he could and answered the phone.
Kurt:…hello?
Finn: Hey…t-this is Finn…I mean obviously err umm…what are you up to?
The fact that Finn was more nervous than the Kurt actually calmed him down.
Kurt: I'm trying to find a movie to find and I'm about to order take out. My dad is working late tonight. What are you up to Hudson?
Finn: So you're home alone? Should I, I mean can I come over? If not that's ok. I don't want your dad coming home and—"
Kurt: Take a breath. You can come over if you'd like. Any requests for dinner then?
Finn: You know I'll eat anything. I'll be over soon.
Kurt felt the need to jump all over the couch and sing at the top of his lungs but he was neither four nor did he want to have the neighbors call the police again for disturbing the peace again. He couldn't help but smile even while on the phone with the Asian restaurant he ordered food from. Kurt ran to the mirror to fix himself up. His hair at this particular moment was messy enough to be casual but neat enough for his rather high standards. He returned to the living room to create the perfect romantic ambience. After the lights were dimmed, TV was on, and pillows were feng-shui'd in comfortable positions, he was ready for his…boyfriend.
Twenty-five minutes had passed and Kurt was still looking over his movie collection to find an appropriate movie for the both of them. Just as he was ready to give up he heard the doorbell. The soprano had to consciously stop himself from hyperventilating as he walked towards the door. He opened the door and caught his breath as he looked at the beaming quarterback. He was wearing the clothes that they had bought the other day at the mall. If Kurt didn't know any better, and he did, he could swear that Finn actually tried to dress up. Kurt grinned back as Finn leaned in and gave him a tender kiss. "Well that was nice," Kurt said through his grin, "come in and make yourself at home."
"Thanks. What are we watching?" Finn asked looking at the wide selection of movies. "I couldn't really figure it out. I was thinking something along the lines of The Sound of Music," Finn's face contorted slightly at the sound of Kurt's suggestion. "I don't know. I know it's good and all but don't you have something that I can stay awake through?" Kurt frowned slightly and kept in mind that he was dating this uncultured fool. Finn walked over to the where all the movies were kept and reviewed through all the selections out loud. Kurt rolled his eyes and walked to the kitchen to grab a Dr. Pepper for Finn and water for himself. Kurt knew that Dr. Pepper was Finn's favorite soda after a very heated debate with Artie over which beverage would most likely give you super powers. Let's just say that Artie won by a landside but only because Finn couldn't understand some of the bigger words Artie threw at him.
Kurt walked in to deliver the carbonated beverage only to find that Finn had already picked out which movie they would be watching; Saw. Kurt went pale and then jumped to the opposite side of that spectrum and blushed furiously. He knew that scary movies, well scared him but he knew that Finn picked this movie as an excuse to hold him throughout the movie. His thoughts were interrupted by the doorbell. He walked towards the foyer and opened the front door. Time froze. In front of him was a no longer smiling, Mike Chang. "Hey…did you order-" "Yes! Uh I mean yeah I did…er how much do I owe you?" Kurt replied nervously. No one at school knew Finn was dating a boy and if Mike found out he was bound to tell somebody. Word spreads around fast at McKinnley so it was only a matter of time before somebody important hears about this and ruins his Finn's life. "$22.74 is your total. Hey is Finn here?" Kurt's heart skipped a few beats. "No why would you think he's here?" Mike just eyed Kurt suspiciously, "Well that looks like his car in your driveway," he said, pointing said car. "How could I forget," Now would be a perfect time for you to call Mercedes, thought Kurt oblivious to the fact he was just standing there in an obvious attempt to fabricate an brilliant lie, "Myyy dad is…FIXING Finn's car." Mike just nodded as Kurt paid the money for the food as well as a more than generous tip. "I guess I'll you later" Mike said, walking away. "Kay bye!" Kurt replied hastily as he slammed the door. The soprano leaned against the door, breathing heavily, trying to regain his composure before facing Finn. The taller boy was just sitting down on the couch flipping through channels. Kurt walked in the living room, with food in hand. Fin looked cute eyeing the food, as well as the smaller boy, hungrily. Kurt left what was theirs on the coffee table and left enough for his father in the microwave. Kurt turned to walk towards the living room when his phone vibrated gently against his hip. Two messages?

He then proceeded to read the other message. It was from Finn?

Soooo are you ever gonna come back and watch this movie with me
I kinda miss you lol
"How can you miss me? I just went into the kitchen for a nanosecond," said Kurt walking back into the living room. "It's hard not to miss you," Finn replied, taking Kurt's breath away. Kurt just sat down trying to breathe in another color besides the deep scarlet that seemed to stain his cheeks. The taller boy's hand slowly covered Kurt's as the gap between them seemed to disappear. Their lips met gently at first but within seconds the kiss became less chaste and more of a passionate battle royale tongue war. Finn began to lay on Kurt when his stomach let out a vociferous growl. Now it was Finn who was a bright red.
"Well I guess we should eat then," awkward laugh. Kurt sat up and brushed himself off nonchalantly, as he handed him a container containing some stir fried rice, eggrolls, and lo mein to a now crimson Finn. They ate with few words spoken. That was mostly due to the fact that they both hadn't eaten anything since lunch. After they stuffed down as much food as they could possibly eat, they got into a comfortable laying down position. Before Kurt could object Finn pressed play.
"I just don't get how you can watch those kinds of movies Hudson" complained Kurt as he led Finn downstairs to his room. The quarterback just laughed, "Me neither actually. So are you gonna have nightmares tonight?" "More like nightmares for the rest of the week," the smaller boy quickly retorted. "Is there anything I can do to help with that?" Finn asked with a seductive look in his eye. Before the soprano could even answer him, Finn tackled him to the bed and began attacking his neck. Moans, body shifting, and uneven breathing were the only things that could be heard downstairs. Finn went from attacking Kurt's neck, to his mouth, back to his neck, and now was launching a full assault on his delicate collar bone. "Finn oh I thmmm think we shou should sloooow down," Kurt managed to get out in between breaths. Finn pulled himself off, panting, and simply replied "We won't do any…anything you don't…wanna do. But baby I just need you right now." One of his famous lopsided grins was all it took for Kurt to pounce on Finn like a lion mounting a gazelle. Kurt repeated Finn's tactics but slower. Teasing him with his tongue, he worked his way across from nibbling on his ear, to ripping his shirt off. Well not actually ripping it because he could get 10 to 15 years in prison for such a horrendous offense. Kurt traveled from Finn's mouth to his belly button as slow and as sensually as possible. "Do you want me to…" Finn asked with both hands on his belt. "No. Like I said: I wanna take things slow. I'll tell you when I'm ready for that."
Finn only frowned slightly but continued to remove his pants. Kurt just stared. "What are you doing Hudson?" The quarterback just smiled once again, "Come here." The smaller boy crawled closer to over to his semi nude boyfriend. He then proceeded to remove all articles of clothing except for his underwear, with no objection from Kurt. Finn just pulled him down on him and kissed him tenderly. "I'm glad you trust me." And with those words they both drifted off to sleep.
Hope you liked it! Well I have plenty of ideas for the next chapter I just got to start writing on a regular basis. The song in this chapter was Close To You by The Carpenters. I changed a word or two to fit the fic and I hope it did it justice. Suggestions, constructive criticism and praise are always welcome. Thanks for reading!
