Warning(s): small scene with implied violence and ridiculous amounts of singing


"Hey there early bird." Blaine says when he walks inside the classroom and sees Kurt. He feels warm inside when Kurt smiles at him.

"Hey. I'm surprised you're here before Wes." Kurt commented. Blaine took a seat next to him.

"Disappointed?" Blaine asked. Kurt's eyes widened comically.

"W-what? No! Never!" Kurt exclaimed and cringed as he did so. Blaine watched as Kurt cleared his throat and spoke again with a shy look on his face. "I like spending time with you."

Blaine was just teasing him, he hadn't expected such an honest answer from Kurt. It was getting harder and harder to hide the fact that he had a huge crush on Kurt. Kurt was amazing. He was sweet, adorable, funny, and smart. But Blaine got a weird feeling from him sometimes. Kurt was pretty mysterious and vague most of the time. Especially about personal things. It should make him want to back off, but Blaine just wanted to learn more about him.

"I like spending time with you too. Which is sort of the reason why I came so early." Blaine admitted. He was going to invite Kurt to his house to meet his brother Cooper. Blaine tells Cooper everything and Cooper had asked to meet the boy Blaine was eventually going to ask to be his boyfriend.

"You wanted to spend time with me?" Kurt asked as if he was surprised. Blaine didn't know why he would be so surprised. But he understood because Kurt hasn't had any real friends in such a long time.

"Of course. I was going to ask if you wanted to come to my house for a while after school? Since there is no Warblers practice you can still make it home on time. My brother will drive you home." Blaine tried not to sound too eager. He just wanted to spend time with Kurt in a more relaxed setting. Maybe that way Kurt will open up to him a bit more.

"Oh, uh okay. I can be home a little later today anyway." Kurt said with a nervous smile. "But wont your parents mind?"

"They are an a little vacation right now, so it's just me and my brother." Blaine told him. Kurt nodded.

"Oh okay. Well then I would love to hang out with you later." Kurt gave him a real smile this time and Blaine felt his heart doing back flips. Maybe he does like me back.

"Blaine?" They both turn to the doorway to see Wes walking inside. "You never come early."

"What? Of course I do." Blaine glares at his friend. Wes looks from Kurt and back to Blaine. He gives Blaine a look as if to ask 'have you made a move yet?'. Blaine just shakes his head.

"Kurt, how did you do with the homework last night?" Wes takes a seat on the other side of Kurt.

"Fine I think. Can you check my math homework though? I don't think I did too well on that one." Kurt said as he opened his bag to take out his math notebook.

"You always say that. You've gotten much better, trust me." Wes said, checking Kurt's homework anyway. "See most of the answers are right."

"Wesley that's not an A though." Kurt said teasingly. That surprised Blaine. He hadn't noticed how close they had gotten.

"Kurty it's at least a B." Wes shoots back nudging Kurt playfully.

"How many times do I have to tell you. That doesn't work because my actual name is Kurt." He rolled his eyes.

"Oh don't be such a baby." Wes laughed. "Here let me show you how to do these problems." Blaine couldn't help but feel a little jealous for some reason. He felt as if there was an understanding between Wes and Kurt that he didn't have with Kurt.


Later that day Wes approached Blaine while Kurt had gone to get lunch.

"Okay, what's wrong with you? Why have you been looking at me so weirdly every time I'm talking to Kurt?" Wes asked him. Blaine didn't even know he was looking at him strangely. He wasn't openly trying to show his jealousy.

"It's nothing." Blaine evaded. Wes didn't back off.

"Blaine, what wrong? Seriously." Blaine sighed.

"I feel like you know more about Kurt than I do. He seems so...at ease with you. And even though I've known him for longer he's still a little nervous around me. I don't want to make him nervous." Blaine rambled on. The more he spoke the more Wes' smirk grew. Blaine frowned at that. "What?"

"You're such an idiot." Wes chuckled. "I'm almost positive that's because he likes you. He's probably trying to either keep it from you or find a way to tell you. He's protecting himself. Besides he's only nervous when you flirt with him or ask him anything personal, which you do more than you probably know you do. He's more comfortable around you than anyone."

"How do you know that?" Blaine asked. Wes rolled his eyes.

"Watch. Kurt is going to come over here and sit right next to you while he eats his lunch, like he always does. He's going to talk to you and only you until someone else talks to him. He's going to lean closer to you while he talks to someone else. You know why?" Wes says all of this knowingly.

"Why?" Blaine humors him.

"Because you make him feel safe. Whatever secret he's keeping deep inside of him, that makes him so reserved and aloof, you pull him away from wallowing in those feelings Blaine. It's not anything he told me that made me think that. You can see the difference from when he's by himself and when he's around you." Wes said and then looked towards the lunch line. Blaine followed his line of sight and found that Kurt was looking at him. Kurt gave him a tiny smile along with a cute embarrassed wave, before looking away.

"So...I guess I was overreacting." Blaine sighed.

"You need to stop worrying so much and just ask him out man. He likes you." Wes said. It was obvious to everyone that Kurt and Blaine had a special kind of connection.

"I'm just trying to get to know him a little better first. So I invited him to my house to meet Cooper." Blaine told him.

"Okay." Wes said and looked a little unsure before speaking again. "Just don't get frustrated if he doesn't open up much more with you. Not everyone is as open as you."

"Hey." Blaine frowned.

"That's not a bad thing Blaine. You where your heart on your sleeve. That's probably why Kurt likes you in the first place. But he's not like you in that way. He probably hasn't come to terms with whatever he went through or is going through. Give him time." Wes advised with a reassuring smile, then looked over to Kurt who was walking back to the table.

As Wes had said, Kurt sat next to Blaine and ate his lunch.

"Why aren't you eating?" Kurt asked Blaine once again proving Wes was right.

"Oh I wasn't feeling too hungry." Blaine told him. Kurt frowned at him as if he were worried about him.

"Did you eat breakfast?" Kurt asked him.

"I didn't." Blaine responded. Kurt then cut his turkey sandwich in half and gave a piece to Blaine. He also opened his apple slices and put half on his tray and gave the rest to him. "Kurt this is your food, I can't take it." Blaine tried to decline Kurt's generous offer.

"It was, now it's ours. Eat, or I'm going to tell your brother you've been skipping meals." Kurt said with a sneaky smirk. Blaine wanted to kiss him. Instead, he ate the food Kurt gave him. He looked across the table and found that Wes was now joined by David and they were both grinning at him.

"So Kurt you're going to Blaine's tonight?" David asked.

"Yeah." Kurt said with a blush on his face. Blaine watched as Kurt, seemingly subconsciously moved closer to Blaine. So much closer that there shoulders where brushing. How is Wes always right?

"Well this weekend we're all going to hang out again at Blaine's place for a sleepover. We're going to watch movies, play games, and eat a bunch of junk food. Do you want to come?" David asked. Blaine scowled at him. He had wanted to ask Kurt that.

"Easy tiger." Wes whispered to Blaine. Blaine could tell he was amused at how he was acting.

"Oh, um I don't think I'm allowed to sleepover." Kurt said nervously, not making eye contact with anyone.
"Why not?" David asked curiously. They all watch as Kurt basically shut down. No more smiling or joking around.

"I just can't." Kurt said simply. "I'm sorry." Blaine knew there had to be a reason but he was trying get better at just waiting for Kurt to tell him things. It was hard.

"That's okay maybe you can just come over for a little bit." Blaine suggested trying to diffuse the situation. Kurt looked at Blaine and shrugged.

"I'll try." There was an awkward silence, thankfully broken by Nick and Jeff joining them.

"Hey guys, where were you two?" Wes asked them.

"We probably don't want to know." David said wriggling his eyebrows.

"We had to finish a test." Nick said rolling his eyes.

"Anyway, we hear you're going to Blaine's house Kurt." Jeff smiled. "If you play Mario Kart Wii you should know I'm the best at that game. They call me King Jeffery."

"We don't call him King Jeffery." Wes whispers to Kurt making him giggle. "But he is pretty good."

"Only because he cheats." Blaine accused.

"It's called shortcuts Blaine. I'll teach you how to use them next time." Jeff reach over the table and pat Blaine on the head.

"I've never played Mario Kart." Kurt said. The boys all started at him, making him visibly uncomfortable. "I don't have gaming systems at home."

"So what do you do at home?" David questioned him unable to believe someone could live without video games. "How do you have fun? How could you not have video games?"

"I read a lot, watch design shows, and cook." Kurt said with a shrug.

"Well I'll introduce you to some of my favorites when we get to my house." Blaine said.

"I can't wait." Kurt smiled. Blaine couldn't wait either.


"So what's your brother like?" Kurt asked him. They had just gotten out of their final class of the day and now they were headed to the front of the school to meet Blaine's brother.

"He's great. Kind of annoying, kind of inappropriate, but overall just a great brother." Blaine told him, and smiled as he did. "He's helped me through so much."

"Sometimes I wish I had a brother or sister. Seems like it would be nice to have one." Kurt muses.

"You never know, maybe someday you will." Blaine said nudging Kurt a little. Kurt just gave him a tight smile.

"Where are we supposed to meet him?" Kurt asked, moving on from the subject. Blaine felt like banging his head on a wall. He always seemed to say something wrong. He didn't mean to make Kurt uncomfortable.

"Uh, outside I think." Blaine said and opened the front door, letting Kurt go through first. They headed for the parking lot and saw someone leaning against a fancy looking car.

"I guess handsomeness runs in the family." Kurt murmured dreamily, then blushed when Blaine looked at him with a smirk.

"You think I'm handsome?" Blaine teased. Kurt's cheeks grew even darker.

"Everyone thinks you're handsome." Kurt defended himself immediately, causing Blaine to laugh. "Blaaaaiiine. Don't embarrass me in front of your brother!"

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'll stop laughing at you." Blaine promised, then leaned in bravely and said, "Just for the record, I think you're handsome too." then walked up to his brother, leaving Kurt stunned for a second before following with extremely pink cheeks.

"Hey Coop." Blaine greeted his brother who gave him an unnecessary bear hug. "Please let go."

"Sorry Squirt, need to show the world how close the Anderson bros are." Cooper said squeezing Blaine and then letting go.

"I can't stand you sometimes." Blaine mumbled before gently reaching back and grabbing Kurt's hand. "Cooper this is my friend Kurt. Kurt this is my older brother Cooper."

"Nice to meet you Cooper." Kurt held out his hand but was immediately engulfed in a hug by Cooper.

"I'm so sorry Kurt." Blaine sighed, shaking his head at his annoying older brother.

"Kurt! I've heard I so much about you! SO MUCH!" Cooper emphasized much to Blaine's dismay. "Like you wouldn't believe the long and detailed conversations I've had with Blaine ab-"

"We get it! I sometimes talk about my close friends." Blaine grit through his teeth and pulled Kurt away from Cooper and let him into the backseat of the car. "I hate you." He whispered to Cooper.

"You'll thank me for this later." Cooper winked and got in the driver's seat. Blaine shook his head with and laughed to himself before getting into the car next to Kurt. This will certainly be an interesting day.


"So Kurt, Blaine tells me you can sing. Care to serenade us?" Cooper asked as they drove down the road.

"You don't have to Kurt." Blaine said quickly, trying to make Kurt as comfortable as possible.

"Oh um, maybe turn the radio on and I'll sing along with it." Kurt suggested. Cooper turned the radio on and the song playing was Fallin' For You. "I love this song!" As Kurt sang beautiful, Blaine couldn't help but notice this song was exactly the situation he was in with Kurt.

I don't know but I think I maybe

Fallin' for you dropping so quickly

Maybe I should keep this to myself

Waiting 'til I know you better

I am trying not to tell you

But I want to

I'm scared of what you'll say

So I'm hiding what I'm feeling

But I'm tired of holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time

just thinking about you

I don't know what to do

I think I'm fallin' for you

I've been waiting all my life and now I found you

I don't know what to do

I think I'm fallin' for you

I'm fallin' for you.

Blaine caught Cooper's face in the mirror and he had a gigantic grin on his face, as if he knew something that Blaine didn't know.

"You really do have the voice of an angel. Blaine was right." Cooper commented. Kurt blushed and Blaine wished he didn't have a brother for a moment.


As soon as they made it to the Anderson household, Blaine gave Kurt a quick tour before introducing him to his impressive collection of video games.

"What do you want to play first?" He asked. Kurt looked at the collection once again.

"Let's play Mario Kart Wii." Kurt said. Blaine popped in the game, grabbed controllers for them both and turned on the tv.

"I'll have you know I'm pretty good at this. Not Jeff good, but pretty good." Blaine bragged. Kurt just smiled at him.

At the character menu Blaine chose Mario and Kurt chose Toad.

"Why Toad?" Blaine looked at Kurt.

"He's adorable. Just look at his cute little mushroom head and his little body!" Kurt cooed.

"You're so weird." Blaine laughed. "Mario is obviously the best driver. His name is in the title."

"Prove it." Kurt challenged him. Blaine went easy on Kurt at first and picked the easiest track, Luigi's Circuit.

"Okay so hold it horizontally, press and hold 2 to drive and you have to physically steer it. Press 1 if you need to reverse. For items use the control pad. If you want to throw an item in back of you press down and press up to throw it in front of you. Use 1 or B to drift but you have to turn the Wii-mote in the direction you want to drift. You got all that?" Blaine said before the race.

"It's called a wii-mote?" Was all Kurt asked.

"Yup."

"How clever."

Kurt turned out to be a very good racer once he got use to the controls and found a vehicle he liked. He was certainly better than Blaine was and even better than Jeff.

"You've beat me in almost every race." Blaine said stunned, then narrowed his eyes at Kurt who was looking at him innocently. "Were you lying about never playing this game?"

"Nope. I wasn't." Kurt swore but then smiled sheepishly, "But I might have had Mario Kart double dash when I was younger. And I might have been ridiculously good at it." Blaine groaned.

"Beat me at Rainbow Road and then I'll declare you champion of Mario Kart, which is Jeff's title." Blaine dared him. Rainbow Road was the hardest track of the entire game. No way Kurt would beat him.

"So I'll be King Kurt." Kurt said.

"Yes." Blaine nodded.

"Okay I will." Kurt said confidently. "If I fall at all it'll only be once."

"Yeah right. You have no idea how hard this one is."

"Watch me beat you by an entire lap."

"Okay now you're just being cocky."

"You don't believe in my skills"

"..."

"Get ready to eat my dust Anderson."

"Bring it on Hummel."


Kurt won.

Blaine had to call Jeff to tell he had been dethroned.

It was quite the moment and Kurt would probably never let him forget it.


"I told you I could beat you by an entire lap!" Kurt gloated. They were now in the kitchen getting something to snack on.

"But you fell twice! So you lost that part." Blaine pointed out. Kurt rolled his eyes.

"Compared to the billions of times you fell that was nothing." Kurt retorted. Blaine laughed.

"Fine, fine. You win." Blaine said. Kurt smiled proudly.

"If only you had believed in my skills earlier you would have saved yourself from losing so terribly." Kurt said playfully. Blaine didn't even care that he lost, Kurt was joking around and being comfortable around him. It was the best feeling in the world.

"Just wait until we move to the games that are I'm good at." Blaine said. Kurt hopped on to his counter and was quiet for a little while.

"Thank you for inviting me over Blaine. It's so nice to just have fun and have nothing else to worry about." Kurt said sincerely. Blaine didn't pry, he wanted Kurt to continue to be comfortable.

"Well thank you for coming over. I'm having a lot of fun with you." Blaine smiled at him. They looked at each other for probably a few seconds too long. They looked away, both hoping that the other didn't notice they were blushing. Suddenly, they both heard Cooper blasting music upstairs.

"Your brother is a Taylor Swift fan?" Kurt said hearing the beginning of Love Story.

"Who isn't?" Blaine asked.

"Eh she's okay." Kurt shrugged.

"Oh come on, don't tell me you don't feel the magic of her songs." Blaine asked.

"Maybe I just can't relate." Kurt guessed. Blaine, feeling brave, put his arms around Kurt's waist and lifted him of the counter and spun him around. To his pleasant surprise, Kurt was laughing as he did so.

"BLAINE! Put me down!" Kurt squealed, but was still laughing.

"See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns." Blaine sung, looking up at Kurt who was now smiling down at him. "See you make your way into the crowd and say hello." He let Kurt down gently but didn't let him go far. He put one hand on his waist and held his other hand and they danced around the kitchen.

"You're silly." Kurt was laughing to the point where he was showing teeth. It was beautiful.

"You were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles- Sing with me Kurt!" He demanded before dramatically singing more of the song. "And I was crying on the staircase begging you please don't go! And I said-"

"Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone. I'll be waiting all that's left to do is run." Kurt sang softly back and suddenly the mood shifted from playful to what they had both been avoiding. They were dancing together slowly and their eyes caught. The rest of the world seemed to disappear and it was only them. Slow dancing and getting lost in each others eyes. They didn't know how long they were dancing.

Romeo save me, I've been feeling so alone.

I keep waiting for you but you never come

is this in my head? I don't know what to think

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...

At this point, Blaine had made up his mind and decided to make his move. He was going to kiss Kurt. He moved in slowly and just when he knew Kurt registered what he was about to do, they were interrupted.

"So who won Mario Kart?" Cooper asked, seemingly unaware of the moment he had just destroyed. They had jumped away from each other so quickly once they heard his voice.

"Kurt." Blaine recovered quickly. "He's better than Jeff." Cooper's mouth dropped.

"He's better than King Jeffery?" Cooper asked. "I might need to play you sometime Kurt."

"Y-yeah that would be fun." Kurt said sounding kind of weird. "Uh..where's your bathroom?"

"Upstairs to the left." Blaine said and Kurt excused himself. When Blaine was sure Kurt was out of earshot Blaine glared at his brother. "Thanks a lot Coop."

"Blaine that kid looked like he was about to pass out." Cooper said seriously. "I can tell he really likes you squirt but I don't know if he was ready to be kissed." Blaine felt embarrassed, he should have asked Kurt first. He got so lost in the moment.

"So that's why you interrupted." Blaine said quietly.

"You two need to talk about your feelings." Cooper said, like he had told Blaine a million different times.

"I don't want to make him nervous." Blaine said in a small voice. "I always want him to be comfortable around me and feel like he can talk to me about anything."

"Firsts can be nerve racking Blaine. Especially from what you told me about Kurt, just having nice friends is new territory for him." Cooper reminded him. "I know you really like him, but he's obviously carrying some baggage he doesn't want to address. And you need to decide if that's something you can handle. Kurt should be with someone who can be patient and understanding and willing to move slowly." Blaine thought about that. He knew Kurt was keeping things from him and he was just so eager to know what it was and help that he didn't even think of Kurt needing to get to the point where he had come to terms with his issues. It's like Wes told him earlier. Kurt needs time. Could Blaine give him time?

"So I shouldn't make a move?" Blaine asked feeling incredibly discouraged.

"That's not what I'm saying. It's your choice Blaine. Just don't get disappointed if you do get together he's still closed off." Cooper pat him on the shoulder. "Relationships don't change people. People change people, but they have to be open to change." Blaine sighed. He didn't know what to do.

"Can you keep Kurt company for half an hour while I do something?" Blaine asked. He wanted some time to think about some things.

"Of course little brother." Cooper smiled sweetly. He knew his little brother was going to make the right decision.

"So do you want to play another game Blaine?" Kurt asked when he came back into the kitchen.

"I have to call my parents for a little bit, but Cooper will play games with you until I get back." Blaine said before quickly leaving the room. Kurt looked confused and a little sad Cooper noticed.

"So Kurt," Cooper put his arm around Kurt's shoulders, and walked them to the living room couch. "Let's have a little talk."

"A-about what?" Kurt asked him.

"I know you like my brother." Cooper said bluntly.

"I-I wh-what? N-n-no-" Kurt stumbled over his words.

"Kurt it's okay. Obviously, devilishly good looks and amazing personalities run in the family." Cooper said, flattering himself. "I don't think he knows you like him."

"It's not obvious?" Kurt asked looking hopeful.

"Oh no it's painfully obvious. I'm almost sure everyone in the entire world can feel your heart beating whenever Blaine's around." Cooper chuckled.

"They cannot." Kurt scowled at him. Cooper was almost scared.

"Woah kid. Keep the death glare at bay, I'm just joking." Cooper shielding his face. "I'm just saying anyone can see that you two mean a lot to each other. But luckily enough, you've fallen for the most oblivious person in Ohio." Cooper joked. Kurt laughed nervously.

"Um...does he like me back?" Kurt asked softly before looking away. "I-I swore for a moment he..I thought h-he was going to kiss me and I froze. He's one of my first friends and he would be my first kiss. No one has ever liked me this way and it's scary." Kurt didn't know why he was saying all this to Blaine's brother.

"You've been through some tough shit haven't you?" Cooper asked. Kurt looked up at him and he could see pain in his eyes. He reminded him so much of Blaine just a few months ago. He could tell Kurt was still going though stuff.

"I guess so." Kurt shrugged.

"How'd you get that scar under your chin? Bullies at your old school?" Cooper asked him and watched as the boy froze, obviously not expecting the question.

"You can see it?" He asked covering his face.

"Am I not supposed to?" Cooper asked raising an eyebrow. Kurt groaned.

"The make-up probably came off when I was washing my face." Kurt mumbled to himself. "I knew I should have gotten the water proof." While Kurt berated himself Cooper processed this information. Kurt obviously had a bunch of things he didn't want anyone to know about. But his brother was persistent. They would probably crash and burn as a couple or meld pretty well. Cooper hoped it was the latter.

"Kurt, look at me." Cooper said, trying to get serious. Kurt looked up at him, hand still covering as much of the scar as he could. It was a scarily long scar. "I don't know what it's like to go through things like Blaine did and like you are. So I know I'm the last person you ever want to talk to about anything, which means I'm not going to pry. But I know my brother will listen and wants to listen to every single word that comes out of your mouth. And he'll try to fix every problem even if you don't think he can. He's just that amazing and at times it can be overwhelming but Blaine always has good intentions."

"T-there are just things I don't know how to talk about yet." Kurt responded sadly. "I want to be able to tell Blaine everything, but-"

"Blaine will wait. He'll wait until you're ready." Cooper smiled at him softly then possibly over stepped a little. "But Kurt, if whatever it is gets too much, don't wait. Friends are there for support and help. You never have to go through anything alone again." Kurt looked astonished. It was as if he really needed to hear that.

"I wish I had a brother like you." Kurt admitted. Cooper felt his heart break for him. So he did the only thing he could. Hugged him tightly.

"Well if you're ever in need of brotherly advice, I'll be here."


Meanwhile, upstairs in his bedroom, Blaine was thinking about what Cooper had said. He liked Kurt. A lot. And all Blaine knew right then was that he wanted to be with him. Was that enough?

He stared at the wall hard. He pretended it was Kurt looking back at him. He walked up to the wall, handed it imaginary flowers and took a step back.

"Kurt, There's a moment when you say to yourself, 'Oh there you are. I've been looking for you forever." He had been repeating this line over and over now. "Everyday being in your presence makes me feel whole. You're my missing puzzle piece." He reached over to his ipod and started playing teenage dream.

"Will you be my boyfriend?" He asked but then sighed. He threw himself on his bed.

"That's probably too cheesy." He looked up at the ceiling before reaching for his phone and calling Wes.

"Hey Blaine. What's up? You and Kurt having fun?" Wes asked.

"I need your help." Blaine said right away.

"No 'hey Wes we're good. How are you today'?" He asked. Blaine just sighed. "What do you need Blaine?"

"I need you to help me ask Kurt out." Blaine said. He practically could feel Wes judging him over the phone.

"You want me to ask Kurt out with you?" He asked slowly. "I'm not really looking for a polyamorous relationship right now, but thanks for the asking."

"Wes." Blaine whined. "Do you want me to be lonely forever?"

"Hmmm" Wes pretended to think about it. Sometimes Blaine couldn't stand his friends. "I guess not."

"Okay, so here's what I need you to do."


"I'm sorry about earlier." Blaine said before Kurt had to go home. They were in the back of Cooper's car talking quietly. Thankful the radio was on so Cooper couldn't eavesdrop.

"It's okay. I guess you were right about Taylor Swift." Kurt laughed softly. Blaine smiled at him.

"What can I say? Her music creates memorable moments." Blaine almost wanted to forget about the plan he had made with Wes earlier and ask Kurt out then. But he controlled himself.

"Thanks for today Blaine. You really are the best friend I ever had." Kurt told him and reached his hand over to cover Blaine's.

"You're my best friend too." Blaine hoped soon enough best friend would turn into boyfriend.

"We're here Kurt." Cooper yet again, this time unintentionally, ruined a sweet moment. "It was nice to meet you, hope you come over again soon!"

"Bye Cooper, thanks for driving me home. Bye Blaine, I'll see you in school tomorrow." Kurt said as he got out of the car.

Blaine noticed how Kurt waited until the car had driven off to go inside. But neither of them could have noticed the look of fear when he walked into his house, the shout of pain he let out when his head was forced against the door, and the cries he held in as his mother repeatedly struck his body.


Kurt felt on edge all day at school the next day. His body hurt from what happened when he got home last night and all he wanted to do was go home and lay down. He didn't know why but he felt like something was going to happen. His friends were giving him strange looks all day. Everyone except for Blaine was acting weird.

It made him nervous.

So at the end of the day when Wes, David, Nick and Jeff told them they had a "surprise" for him, he was reluctant to follow them.

"Shouldn't we wait for Blaine?" Kurt asked but Nick and Jeff shook their heads.

"Come with us." Jeff urged him. Kurt raised an eyebrow at him. He looked at all his friends around him giving him creepy smiles.

"What's going on?" Kurt asked them, not going to follow him. He's known these guys for a few months and he feels like maybe he shouldn't trust them as much as he does. But no matter how much he trusted them, he felt extremely anxious and that never ended well.

"Just follow us for a minute will you?" David smiled a little too brightly. Kurt frowned and looked to Wes who was looking at him with a small encouraging smile.

"Trust us." Wes said and Kurt's frown deepened but he followed them. They led him to where they held Warblers Practice and then gestured for him to go inside. He looked at them all, still on edge but went inside. He was instantly startled by them slamming the door behind him. He felt his heart drop and his chest tighten. Please not now.

"What the hell guys?" He yelled with wide scared eyes.

"Kurt?" He whipped around at the nervous sounding voice. It was Blaine, with red and yellow flowers in his hands.

"B-blaine? What's going on?" He asked not understanding. Blaine approached him slowly and held out the flowers which Kurt took carefully.

"Yel-yellow roses mean friendship." Blaine started out looking Kurt deep in the eyes. "And you are my best friend Kurt."

"Blaine what-?" Kurt still not processing what's going on.

"Red roses." Blaine continues on as if Kurt hadn't spoken. "They umm..they usually mean 'I love you'." Kurt breath hitched and he couldn't breathe properly. "It-It's too early for that. But I-I am crazy about you Kurt Hummel. The red roses to me are hope and promises f-for romance."

"Blaine I-" Kurt tried to interrupt but Blaine was intent on finishing his speech. Obviously not seeing that Kurt was having a little trouble breathing.

"There's a moment when you say to yourself, 'Oh there you are, I've been looking for you forever.'." Kurt could not believe this was happening to him. He's being asked out by the guy of his dreams and he literally is taking his breath away. "Just everyday, being in your presence makes me happier...it makes me feel whole, like I've been missing a piece of me my whole life and I've finally found it..found you." Blaine takes a deep breath before forming his next words. "You move me Kurt. And I was wondering maybe if you f-felt the same way and would like to be my boyfriend?" Kurt's looking at him with wide eyes by now and taking short uneven breaths.

"I- Blaine.." He forces out, hoping Blaine will understand. Which he does because he automatically panics.

"Oh god! I'm sorry, I was rambling about my stupid feelings for you and you can't even breathe!" Blaine takes the flowers from Kurt and lays them on the table near them. He takes Kurt's hands and hold them against his chest. "Breathe with me okay Kurt?" He murmurs. "Breathe in." They both take a long breath in. "Breathe out." and they let it out. "Come on lets do this a few more times." He says soothingly. Eventually, Kurt's no longer out of breath and Blaine is back to being nervous.

"Thank you." Kurt said. "I know that wasn't the reaction you were going for." They both laugh at that.

"No. But it was better than you rejecting me." Blaine says before wincing. "Which you still didn't decide on and I could still be doomed for heartbreak and eternal embarrassment." Kurt holds in a laugh at that.

"I-I uh I really like you too Blaine. I would love to be your boyfriend." Kurt says blushing a bit. Kurt would never forget the smile that graced Blaine's lips when he said that.

"I...that's.." Blaine seems speechless before shaking his head and looking at Kurt again, eyes glancing down to his lips for a moment too long. "Can I kiss you?" He whispered. Kurt nodded slowly and Blaine sighed in relief and cupped the side of Kurt's face before slowly pressing his lips to Kurt's. At first Kurt doesn't react. He just let's Blaine kiss him. But soon enough he's cupping Blaine's cheek and kissing him harder before they both pull away and stare at each other.

"Is this really happening?" Kurt asked and Blaine smiled at him before kissing him again quickly.

"Yes it is." Blaine says quietly. "I-I wanted to do this yesterday when you were at my house but..."

"Cooper." Kurt said for him.

"Yeah, I didn't want to kiss you without letting you know how I felt. I want you to know this relationship can go as slow as you need it to go. I always want you to be comfortable with me." Blaine said. Kurt kissed him, just because he could.

"I'm always comfortable with you." Kurt said. It was true, no one made him feel safer than Blaine.

"Not when it comes to talking about anything really personal." Blaine said and Kurt looked away. Blaine had no idea how much Kurt wanted to tell him. But he just couldn't. At least not yet. "Hey, I'm not going to push you to tell me anything right now. I'll be patient. So if I'm prying to much you can just tell me that."

"Cooper was right about how thoughtful you are." Kurt smiled at him then furrowed his eyebrows for a moment. "Hey how did you know what to do to help me with my panic attack?" Blaine blushed a little.

"To be honest, when you told me you get them sometimes, I looked online to see how to help. And I asked Wes because he knows just about everything." Blaine said truthfully. Kurt had never felt more cared about then he did at that moment.

"Thank you." He tried to convey just how much he meant that by wrapping his arms around Blaine's neck and kissing him softly on the lips. "You know I was singing to you in the car."

"I was hoping you were." Blaine said, resting his forehead on Kurt's

"I've been waiting all my life and now I've found you." Kurt sung. "I don't know what to do. I think I'm fallin' for you." Blaine kissed Kurt's nose and then kissed his lips again before they were interrupted by their nosy friends.

"Did you guys get together yet?"

"Are you making out?"

"What's going on in there?"

"Can we come in?"

Kurt and Blaine both shared a look of fondness before opening the door together. The boys looked and saw them holding hands and smiling.

"I honestly can't tell if they're together or not because that's how they always are." Jeff said looking at them for signs of change.

"Well Blaine doesn't look heartbroken." Nick determined. David stepped out to Kurt and grabbed his cheeks.

"Kurt's entire face is red. They were totally making out." David nodded as if he had figured out some great mystery.

"Congrats you two. You make a really great couple." Wes smiled.

"Thanks Wes." Kurt said. "You always have the less crazy response. The other three boys gasped.

"I'm am hurt, Kurt." David huffed.

"That was low." Jeff agreed.

"Maybe we shouldn't take you and Blaine to get coffee to celebrate your new relationship status." Nick crossed his arms. Blaine rolled his eyes.

"Wes wanna come with me and Kurt to get coffee?" Blaine asked, Wes laughed.

"Sure, lets go." Wes said following Kurt and Blaine out the room. David, Nick, and Jeff looked on as they walked away.

"How rude are they?" David mumbled. "My own fake boyfriend, leaving me for other dudes."

"You can come with me and Jeff and make Wes jealous." Nick smirked. David hooked arms with them and they walked out of the room.

"We are such joys how could they just walk away?" Jeff wondered.

"They'll understand one day sweetie."
