A/N: Okay, you guys probably all hate me now and I'm SOOO SORRY! I had to take like, a summer hiatus because of a lot of crap and summer camp and family shit and ugh okay I'm back and I'm going to update regularly now! Like every week or 2 weeks! PROMISE PROMISE PROMISE PLEASE DON'T HATE ME HERE'S THE NEXT CHAPTER! *hides*
[Cue the Glee voiceover guy]: Blaine likes Kurt and Kurt likes Blaine and Blaine asked Kurt out but Kurt thinks Blaine's stringing him along but still likes him. Sue has a plan to get Kurt back to McKinley and Kurt wants to take the offer. Jeff and Nick are kind of going out but they're not official. Wes and David ship Klaine and convince Blaine to ask Kurt out but Kurt misunderstands what Blaine means and runs off! And that's what you missed, on GLEE!
Kurt raced back through the corridor to his room. His mind was spinning with a myriad of colorful thoughts. Blaine likes me? Blaine asked me out! Blaine has liked me for a long time... Blaine liked me and wanted to hurt me! Wait, no... what? Kurt shook his head and attempted to sort through the legion of emotions coursing pounding through his head. Slow down, Hummel, he thought.
I like Blaine.
Blaine likes me...?
Blaine has serenaded other guys, rejected me on Valentine's Day and, fully aware of my feelings, kissed my friend of the opposite gender in front of me, claiming to be bisexual. Given, my reaction wasn't as pleasant and supportive as I probably should've been... but, Blaine.
Wait, Blaine said he's liked me for a while... but, what constitutes as a while? Kurt realized with a shock. Oh my god, I've been making it all up in my head, haven't I? Blaine finally likes me back and I pushed him away on the off assumption that he was toying with me? Idiot! Hummel, you're an idiot!
Kurt dried his tears and yanked out his phone to call Blaine, but his finger hesitated over the call button. He couldn't do it. Kurt was way too ashamed to just run back out there. How EMBARRASSING. What would Blaine think of him? Ugh, Kurt sometimes hated his diva exits, mostly because they were nearly impossible to take back. But then again, that was the beauty of them...
Ugh.
Kurt slowly changed, wondering if he should dash back out there but as the clock struck 9, he decided against it. Bitter, sad and furious at himself, Kurt Elizabeth Hummel fell asleep with his phone clutched to his chest.
Blaine stood in the hallway, stunned at what had just happened. He was actually pretty confused as to what actually had happened. Kurt said something about them not working out and just ran off. Blaine swore that Kurt liked him. Maybe Kurt didn't actually like him. Or maybe Kurt realized he didn't like Blaine and just wanted to be platonic. Or maybe Kurt was creeped out by his forwardness. Was Blaine being too forward? Is it weird for a trusted to mentor to fall for the gorgeous, talented, innocent boy he was supposed to be helping? Blaine groaned as he realized how ungentleman-like he was acting. Kurt probably thought he was an idiot for -
Oh.
Shit.
Kurt probably thought that Blaine was leading him on. No no NO! Ugh, how could he be such an idiot? Kurt was probably in his room brooding over the fact that he just let an insensitive jerk like Blaine touch him.
Idiot, Anderson, you're an idiot!
Blaine trudged back to his room and went over the events of the night again. He was probably going to lose Kurt, again! He flopped onto his bed face down, waking up his roommate from a seemingly pleasant sleep.
"Blaine Devon fucking Anderson, what the hell is wrong with you?" Wes growled from underneath the covers.
"Language, Wes, language." Blaine muttered.
"Whatever, Blaine. It's, like, 3 AM, you crazy bast-"
"Nope." Blaine said, popping the 'p'. "It's actually a little before 10. You're just in early for a Friday night, you anti-social jerk."
"Blaine, shut up. You're not supposed to be back this early. What happened?" Wes propped himself up on one elbow, looking at his friend curiously.
"Kurt, kind of ran away..."
"What?!" Wes asked incredulously.
"I mean, I don't know! He seemed kind of into it and then we talked for a little and he freaked out and ran away and what if he hates me now? I told you this was a bad idea! What if he never wants to see me again? I mean, I'm not that good at this romance thing and he probably thinks I'm a freak or a stalker or -"
"Blaine! Enough!" Wes groaned. Blaine turned to him with eyes like a puppy, his lower lip quivering.
"Blaine," Wes sighed. "What did Kurt actually say? Maybe you misunderstood, because if that boy isn't head over heels for you, someone give him an Oscar because he had all of Dalton fooled."
"He said that I hurt him and did awful things and he needed to be alone, or something like that. To be quite honest, Wes, I was still a bit flustered from his acceptance to be paying full attention. Then he freezes up and rejects me like I'm his worst bully and I'm still standing there like an idiot. I don't even know what went wrong! I told I've liked him forever, you know?" Blaine stared at his phone helplessly.
Wes sat quietly for a few minutes, going over what Blaine had said. Why did Kurt react that way? Was Kurt truly not ready for a relationship? Why was Kurt acting that way? Wes connected some dots and came to the logical conclusion that either Kurt was secretly from Alaska and had prior obligations to his loving pack of huskies or -
Wait. Hold the fuck up.
"Blaine, you told Kurt that you've liked him since the day you guys met?"
"Yeah...?" Blaine's eyes lolled over to look at Wes from where they were intently staring at his phone as if he was going to will a text from Kurt by glaring at it. "I thought it was going to be total honesty? Remember? Fool-proof plan for Blaine the Idiot Anderson to score a date with the very possible love of his life that you PROMISED wouldn't turn out like the pink hair -"
"Blaine!" Wes interrupted. "What if Kurt thinks that you liked him and then you just wanted to toy with him so you went and did all that stuff with Rachel and Jeremiah. I mean, you've flirted with him but you've always pushed him away and went as far as to doubt your sexuality..." Wes started, but was interrupted by the door slamming open.
"Whoa Blaine, what the hell happened? I just saw Kurt running back to his room in tears!" David marched in, slightly out of breath as he kicked the door closed and collapsed on the bed next to Wes.
"What? He was crying? UGH, I'm such an idiot, a jerk! Kill me now..." Blaine moaned into his pillow as Wes and David shared a look.
"Blaine," David began.
"Yes, you abnormally short, furniture-jumping doofus. NEWSFLASH - you're an idiot. You know why? You basically just told Kurt that you were leading him on. You need to stop wallowing and explain yourself to him. Actually let's practice here. I'm still not sure what goes on in that crazy head of yours." Wes finished.
Both David and Blaine gaped at Wes when he was done. Blaine snapped his jaw closed and thought for a second before answering.
"Well, okay. I liked Kurt the moment I saw him. He's beautiful. He's lithe and muscular at the same time and he has this ethereal beauty with his pale skin and his gorgeous eyes! And his skin, ugh. Once, I was in his room with him and he was wearing a t-shirt and he reached up and I caught this sliver of gorgeous skin and have I mentioned how toned he is? His arms -"
"Oh god, Blaine! We get it! He's a hot piece of ass, okay? Let's just not go into that much detail... I mean, I'm getting all hot and bothered here. Do you really want us to pull a nice little circle-jerk over the guy you like, right here, right now?" David groaned. Blaine looked up in shock and decided against talking about how gorgeous Kurt's body was.
"Okay, so yes. He's amazingly attractive and I wanted to ask him out after 'Teenage Dream' that first time. But then you and Wes came in and well... things got complicated." Blaine gestured between them without looking up. "After hearing Kurt's story, I decided he needed a mentor and a friend first. I just wanted to make him feel better, a little more confident in himself before I pushed him into a relationship... God, that sounds bad. I would NEVER push him into anything! I just - UGH. I wanted him to be comfortable with me. And then..." Blaine took a deep breath. "That asswipe Karofsky decided to show and make Kurt feel even worse. I realized that day that I could never do that with Kurt." Blaine stopped abruptly.
Wes and David looked confused and prompted him to continue.
"Kurt is... wonderful. I love the way he talks, the way he expresses himself, the way he takes care of himself and hold himself. I love his compassion and everything about him. Just, him. When you guys told me I should just ask him out, I thought maybe I could past this. Maybe enough time had passed so I could start being Kurt's love- I mean, boyfriend, instead of friend. Then, he ran away from me and I lost him again." Blaine's voice faltered on the last word and his eyes grew sad as he finished his story.
"Blaine, what happened that made you think Kurt wouldn't want you, or couldn't handle you... or something?" Wes asked.
"I - he... Karofsky is actually- I, uh. Sorry guys, it's not my story to tell. Long story short, after what Kurt went through, I thought he shouldn't have someone kissing him on impulse and touching him like that. I don't know." Blaine sighed.
"Damn, that really sucks Blaine. I just, I wish you could say that to Kurt, you know? I think if you guys just had a serious discussion for once, he'd realize that you had your reasons for suppressing your feelings and you'd understand why he's done some of the things he's done. Y'all have a serious lack of communication, man." David looked at Blaine with wide, concerned eyes.
"You should talk to him tomorrow." Wes piped up.
Blaine looked between his two closest friends, took a deep shuddering breath and nodded.
"Guys, we need a plan."
Jeff knew something was up the moment Kurt walked into English that morning. There were bags under his eyes, his shirt was wrinkled and his hair flopped carelessly onto his forehead.
"Kurt! What's wrong? You look awful, oh my gosh." Jeff reached for his friend but Kurt shrugged him off.
"It's nothing.. ugh. I just had a really bad day with Blaine and a lot of different things have come up and I'm so confused... I just." Kurt shut his eyes and dropped his head onto his desk.
"You what? Kurt, hey Kurt!" Jeff poked the back of Kurt's head repeatedly until Kurt lifted his head and gave him his best bitch glare. "Kurt." Jeff pouted.
"Jeff, I think I'm going back to McKinley."
