Chapter 4
Kurt couldn't deny that the look Blaine had on his face at the sight of Carson was rather comical. Maybe he would have even laughed...if he hadn't been slightly horrified. He had never meant for his twin to hear the things he had said to Finn. Especially with Carson's apparent dislike for their step-brother. Hearing things like that were surely not going to get Finn on Carson's good side any time soon. Possibly ever.
"You...you heard that?" he asked softly, hoping that maybe he had just heard the raised voices and not the words.
Carson simply raised a brow in response, as if to ask 'Are you serious?'.
"Carson, please don't—" he started to ask his brother not to mention anything that he had overheard to their dad but was cut off when Carson held up a hand to silence him, pushing himself from the door frame as the same glasz eyes as his own moved to where Blaine was sitting.
Remembering his boyfriend and how proper introductions had yet to be made for him, he turned to look at Blaine as well with an apology on his lips. An apology that proved unnecessary as Blaine smiled brightly at the sudden attention of Carson and quickly stood up, holding out a hand in welcome.
Still polite as ever.
"Hello! I'm Blaine Anderson!" Blaine said warmly, seeming unashamed of his excitement.
Carson silently took Blaine in from head to toe, a quick flash of judgment passing through his eyes that had Kurt's own eyes narrowing.
"Carson?" he said a with sweet smile, knowing only his brother would catch the warning in his tone.
Letting his eyes drop, Carson ran a hand through his still damp hair before walking over to where Kurt was sitting and dropping down on his lap.
"Ow! What are you—" Kurt protested, grunting lightly in pain.
"Well, older brother, you're crazy if you think any of that is going near any of this," Carson replied casually, waving a hand first over the neatly made bed and then over his own old school's gym t-shirt and Hanes sweats.
Giving a delicate snort of offense, Kurt moved his hands to Carson's shoulder and hip before shoving him off of his legs. "I think you have that backwards."
They traded identical glares before Kurt got to his feet to stand next to Blaine, resting an apologetic hand on his back.
"Now. To do this properly." He said with a pointed smile at his reflection before turning to smile lovingly at Blaine. "Carson, this is my boyfriend Blaine. Blaine, this is my brother Carson. See why we keep him secret? He has a horrible sense of humor."
The teasing note made Blaine's previous frown at being ignored turn into an unsure smile. They shared a private look before Blaine turned back to Carson, willing to try again as was his nature.
"It really is a pleasure to meet you," Blaine said with a little less excitement than before, but still with genuine excitement none-the-less. "It's a shame I never got to meet you until now, Carson. With you being Kurt's brother and all, I feel like I should really know you better!"
Carson stared back at Blaine for a few seconds before pulling himself up to sit with practiced care on Kurt's bed, careful not to mess it up for his own sanity, before giving Blaine a bored look. "You are aware that there is no way we'll be having sex, right?"
The excited look fell from Blaine's face as a look of surprise quickly replaced it, the shorter boy actually twitching back a little while Kurt choked silently on his sharp inhale before giving his twin an unimpressed look.
"So if you think my being here will help you finally live out some weird twin fetish, you can just stop right there," Carson continued on, like he hadn't just said something so shocking, waving a hand dismissively as his eyes met and held Blaine's.
"Carson, I will shave your head while you are sleeping. Shut up," Kurt managed to snap out after a few more seconds of stunned silence. Wow. He really hadn't been expecting that, but really...he should have known better. Especially since Carson had agreed to meet with Blaine so easily so soon.
Humming lightly at the threat, Carson turned his gaze to his brother before arching a brow. "You wouldn't do that to your own reflection, Kurt. I seem to recall you saying once that you couldn't pull off a shaved head so I'm sure your vanity would keep you from doing that to me as well."
Kurt glared in defeat while Carson allowed a small triumphant smirk to fall over his lips.
"Wow. When Finn said you were the bitchy one... He really wasn't joking, was he?" All attention was turned to Blaine as he finally spoke up over his initial shock. Kurt groaned silently, closing his eyes for a second.
Carson stared at Blaine in slight offense before snapping with slight annoyance, "Bite me, hobbit."
"I'm not—" Blaine started to defend himself until he was cut off by Kurt sliding an arm through his, tugging him towards the door.
"Yeah...so. I really should be getting Blaine home so I can return at a decent hour that won't get me grounded." Kurt laughed falsely, pushing Blaine into the hall gently. "Carson, get some rest or something."
Before his brother could reply, Kurt was pulling the door to his room closed and turning to guide Blaine out to his car. Neither spoke until they were buckled into the vehicle and had pulled out of the driveway.
"Oh my—Blaine, I'm so sorry!"
