Chapter 6-The Aftermath
Author's Note: I have one more chapter after this one. That will be the last one. At last, I will be finished. Sorry about the angst in this chapter.

Kurt Hummel had always hated waiting for anything. He could remember visiting his mom in the hospital when she younger and just waiting for news on how she was doing. He was rarely allowed to actually see her because his dad didn't want to scare or upset him. But now, Kurt was waiting yet again and this time he thought it was worse. He was just waiting for the inevitable rejection from his best friend/crush/love of his life. He had slipped the boyfriend application underneath Blaine's door and had retreated back to his sanctuary.

Kurt,

You are my best friend. I am so thankful for our friendship, but that's all we can be. One day, I know you will find love. You will have a boyfriend who loves you and is the perfect guy, which is exactly what you deserve.

As I explained to you on Valentine's Day, I don't know what I'm doing both in love and even in life. I have no idea how to be a boyfriend. My parents aren't there for me, like your dad and Carole are for you. I envy you that. My dad is always working and tends to ignore me except when he has it in his head to bond with me. My mother tries but I know she doesn't fully understand me either. I have an older brother named Cooper, who I have never mentioned before because we don't get along. We're nothing alike and he has outgrown me.

Please, Kurt; Please say you will still be my friend. Probably not today or even tomorrow, but I honestly don't want to lose you. Kurt, you are my best friend and I need you in my life.

Regards,
Blaine

Well, Kurt's waiting was over at last. He could feel his heart breaking with every word he read. He knew that Blaine would inevitably reject him. Blaine was far too good for him. He knew that, but it didn't stop the pain or the hurt that had followed the heartbreaking letter. He let himself cry for 5 minutes before continuing on to his moisturizing routine. Love just wasn't in the cards for him, and that was okay.
