Where: Random forest
When: Summer break after season two
The sound of running water reached their ears and with a smile on his face Blaine took Kurt's hand, dragging him along as he sped up through the forest. Kurt laughed at the eagerness of the hand which tugged him along, and stumbled after without asking any questions.
They soon reached the source of the sound, a small stream, and Blaine let go of Kurt's hand, sitting down on his heels. With a absent expression on his face he gently touched the surface with his fingertips. Kurt slowly took a step forward and softly laid a hand on the back of the curly haired boy.
"When I was younger someone told me the story about the Water Sprite.", Blaine said with a low voice. Kurt nodded in response, even though Blaine couldn't see it. He knew the story, but let Blaine tell it without interrupting.
"He was a mysterious boy who sat alone in the middle of the river, playing a violin and waiting for people to come by and get spellbound by his music, drowning while trying to reach him. I used to spend hours and hours by the river near my house, just sitting there, waiting and listening." Blaine silenced for a moment, sweeping his hand through the clear water before continuing.
"I found the beauty of music there, in the sound of the water and the forest surrounding me. I still love these kinds of places."
Kurt smiled warmly at the boy crouching before him, still mesmerized by the water.
"Are you sure the reason for you sitting there and waiting wasn't the fact that the Water Sprite was a beautiful boy who was supposed to be naked?"
The sound of Blaine's laughter blended with the sound of rippling water and he turned around, taking Kurt's hand in his own, linking their fingers together.
"Maybe.", he said with sparkling eyes. "Maybe."
