Kurt really didn't know what to say. He was just starting at the proud smiles on the Glee kids faces.
A hand on his shoulder pulled him out of his thoughts.
He turned around to see Blaine standing behind him with Jeff, Nick, David and Wes close to them.
Wes stepped forward. "may I ask you what you are doing here? This is in fact an event for people who are invited," Wes said.
Rachel huffed, "I don't see anyone holding invites and no one asked us for an invite when we came here."
Kurt rolled his eyes at that. This was such a typical reaction of her. He was about to reply but it looked like Wes wanted to handle this.
"While that may be true, this is a private event. And I think it's best for you to leave now. In fact, we might compete against you guys in the future so this could count as spying. We could bring this to the judges of the competition."
At that, Rachel was turning all white. "You wouldn't!"
"We would. Now you better leave," Wes said as he turned his back towards them and started talking with David, Jeff and Nick.
Rachel huffed loudly as it looked like she wanted to start shouting but Finn put a hand on her shoulder and lead her outside, saying it wasn't worth the fight.
Kurt took in a deep breath as he watched them walk out of the door and turned himself around so he was wrapped into Blaine's warm arms.
"You ok," Blaine asked.
"I'm fine," Kurt said as he breathed in deeply, feeling so much at home. "I wish they would just leave it alone. This will only be the beginning of it."
Blaine started rubbing his hand over his back, "I'll be here if things turn ugly."
Kurt chuckled at that. "You really expect this to turn ugly don't you?"
Blaine shrugged as he pulled back a little so he could look Kurt in the eyes, "I don't know what to expect of your glee club."
Kurt let out a sigh, "I should go home sadly enough. It's turning dark outside and my dad will be waiting for me."
Blaine smiled sadly. He took Kurt's hand and started swinging it playfully, "Let me walk you outside?"
It felt like a thousand butterflies where fluttering in his stomach as he nodded and followed Blaine outside, still holding his hand.
Once they arrived at Kurt's car, Blaine wrapped him into a tight hug. "Call me if you need me ok?"
Kurt let out go of the hug and smiled at him, "thank you for tonight. It was amazing. You should tell your friends I really enjoyed it.
Blaine grinned at that, "I'm sure they will appreciate it. Text me when you get home."
Kurt stepped into his car and started backing out the parking lot.
With one last wave, he was gone.
.:*break*:.
Friday had been surprisingly calm, much to Blaine's and Kurt's relieve. Sadly, neither of them had the time during the weekend to meet up but they made most of it by texting and a skype call at night.
The more Kurt talked with Blaine, the more he felt himself falling for this guy and it scared the hell out of him because he didn't want to ruin the friendship they had.
His dad had noticed something was bothering him and once asked him but Kurt had just said it was the stress of school.
He knew obviously that his dad wasn't dumb. He knew it was something else but he would let it go until he came to him.
It was on Sunday when he was sitting on the couch next to his dad, chuckling at a text that he received, that he knew his dad knew.
"So you've been texting a lot and skyping a lot with this kid from Dalton", Burt said.
Kurt had felt himself blush a little but had just nodded, not even looking up from his phone, "he's a good friend of mine."
Burt let out a loud laugh out at that, "Kiddo I'm not blind. You've been smiling all evening at your phone. I'm sure you haven't seen anything from the movie yet. Does he know?"
Kurt felt himself turn fully red at that. "No he doesn't."
"Why not?" Burt asked curiously.
Kurt sighed at that, "I'm not sure if he wants me like that. And I don't want to ruin the friendship we have. I've known him only for a short time and he already means so much to me. He's become my best friend."
Burt nodded, "I know and I'm so happy to see you happy again kiddo, but sometimes you have to take a chance. Not think about the what ifs."
He patted Kurt on his head as he stood up and made his way to the kitchen, "I'm going to get a glass of water and get some sleep. You should do the same."
Kurt shut down the television and went upstairs himself.
He texted Blaine one last goodnight before he turned down the lights, still wondering about his dad's words.
.:*break*:.
It was Friday evening. Kurt had looked forward to this day all week. It was the only evening both he and Blaine had found themselves free to meet up.
So when the bell rang, Kurt almost ran towards his locker.
"Where are you going gayface," he heard the familiar voice of Santana say behind him.
"It's none of your business," Kurt replied as he put the last of his books in his bag and closed his locker.
He was about to walk by when Santana put her arm in front of him against the locker.
"Listen here Hummel, If you think that the end about this is being said, then you are painfully wrong."
With that she lifted her arm and turned around.
Kurt rolled his eyes and made his way towards the parking lot. The empty treat hanging in the air was the last thing on his mind as he started his car and started the drive to his house.
.:*break*:.
Kurt immediately noticed the familiar car in front of the house.
A sense of dread filled his stomach as he realized that Blaine must have been together with his dad for quite a while.
He parked his car carefully and stepped into the house. As he pulled of his shoes, he heard the laughter coming from the kitchen.
Kurt walked towards the kitchen door and leaned against it as he watched his dad and Blaine try to cook something.
"Are you sure this is how the chicken should look like, kiddo" Burt asked as he started rubbing his bald head.
Blaine looked over the cooking pots and a huge frown formed on his face. Both his eyebrows shaping in weird funny angles.
It made Kurt laugh out loud. When he was done laughing, he knew he was busted when he saw the betrayed faces.
Kurt chuckled, "it's a good thing I came home I guess?"
Burt shook his head in defeat as Blaine looked sheepishly towards him.
"I arrived early and me and your dad thought it would be nice for you if you came home and didn't have to make Friday night dinner," Blaine said with a shrug.
Kurt walked towards the kitchen island and first wrapped his dad in a hug before his arms wrapped themselves around Blaine.
"While that's really sweet, it's better if we don't end all up with food poisoning."
Kurt let go of Blaine and looked over the cooking pots, immediately frowning and pulling up his nose.
"Jeez, what did you guys do with this," he asked as he looked at the chicken.
Burt sheepishly coughed and started backing out the kitchen, "It was all your friend."
With that he left the kitchen and Blaine was left alone with Kurt.
"So what did you guys do with the chicken," Kurt asked as he opened the trash can and threw the chicken in it.
Blaine started rubbing his neck as he looked down at the ground, "I honestly have no idea what we did wrong. It just started having this weird color and it was still raw inside."
Kurt chuckled, "It's called burned food."
Blaine pouted at that, "It wasn't that bad."
"It was," Kurt said as he opened the fridge with a sigh, "Guess you ruined the only decent food we still had in the fridge. Guess we'll be ordering pizza."
He ignored the yes shout coming from the living room. There was no way he was getting away with this the next time.
An hour later, all of them sat in the living room, stomachs filled with pizza and happily watching a movie.
Kurt was leaning against Blaine's shoulder with his head as Blaine had wrapped his arm around his shoulder.
Every once in a while, Blaine's finger would stroke over his neck and it made all the little hairs on his arms stand up.
Kurt had noticed how his dad had looked over at them every once in a while, a smile playing on his face.
Half an hour later, hallway through the movie, he stood up with a cough. "I'm going to get some early sleep. Thanks for coming over Blaine."
Blaine stood up and shook his hand, "thank you for having me sire."
"I think we are on Burt base now," Burt chuckled. "Don't leave too late so you don't have to drive through the night. Safe home!"
Burt waved once more as he walked up the stairs.
Blaine took a seat next to Kurt with a sigh, "your dad is right, I should get home."
Kurt nodded and paused the movie. He might as well look at the end as he waited for a text of Blaine.
He walked Blaine towards his car in the dark, "you plan on coming over again next Friday?"
Blaine looked confused, "I don't know. Am I?"
Kurt shrugged, "it's Friday night dinner and I'm sure my dad wouldn't mind."
"I don't want to come in between these moments with you and your dad. I know how much these Friday night dinners mean for you guys," Blaine said softly.
Kurt wrapped his arms around Blaine's neck, "thank you for coming."
Blaine wrapped his arms tight around Kurt's waist for a moment before letting go.
"See you soon?" he asked as he started stepping into the car.
Kurt stopped him by holding his arm and placed a soft kiss against his cheek, "see you soon."
Kurt felt himself blush as he turned around and walked into the house.
While Kurt was leaning against the door, Blaine was smiling in his car.
