Off course I still don't own Glee, but I have been watching the Kliss video repeatedly and wishing for it to happen in my living room. Hope springs eternal.

Reviews are much appreciated. :-)

"Dudes...whoa."

Mike flexed his body slightly and sprang to a standing position immediately, like a jungle cat. Sam, not a dancer or in control of his body the way Mike was, stood up quickly if much less gracefully. They both stood, frozen, looks of panic on their faces.

Kurt, still in shock himself, looked from the two of them to his brother, who was still standing at the open front door. Then Kurt turned to look at Blaine, who was also frozen, open-mouthed. Then, springing into action, Kurt dropped the DVD and walked over to Finn. He grabbed the front of the taller boy's shirt, kicked the door closed, and pulled Finn toward the kitchen.

As they passed Blaine, Kurt looked at his boyfriend and said, "Keep them here. Do not let them bolt. Whatever you do, make them stay in this house."

As Kurt and Finn disappeared into the kitchen, Blaine walked over to the two panic stricken boys and, putting one hand on each of their chests, pushed them down to sitting positions on the couch.

Kurt and Finn entered the kitchen, the door swinging shut behind them. Kurt walked over to the sink and made himself a glass of water. Finn just stood there, in silence.

"Do you need to sit down?" Kurt asked.

Finn nodded and sat down in one of the chairs at the kitchen table. He had a dazed look on his face.

Kurt made another glass of water and handed it to him.

Finn looked up at his brother and said, "Dude...that was...and I came in...and they were there...and they were...whoa...and you were by the TV set...and then Blaine came in...and I was like 'Whoa.'"

Kurt nodded, "Yes, I was there Finn. I saw it."

"Can I ask you something?" Finn asked, his voice soft.

"Sure." Kurt answered.

"Am I the only straight person left?"

Kurt laughed out loud and said, "No Finn, there are still plenty of straight people in the world." Kurt sighed and looked at his brother who still looked pretty shocked and said, "Drink your water."

Finn finished the whole glass in one gulp.

Kurt sat down at the table and looked at his brother with a serious expression on his face. "Now this is what we're going to do. We're gonna go out there and talk to our friends...no, let me rephrase that...we're gonna go out there and listen to our friends. They will probably have some stuff to say. Now, can you promise me that you won't talk or pepper them with questions until they are done with whatever they have to say?"

Finn nodded his head quickly,

Kurt stood up and motioned for Finn to stand as well. They walked over to the kitchen door. Kurt turned and said, "Remember Finn, please don't talk until they're done, okay?"

Finn nodded again.

Kurt opened the door and motioned for Finn to walk through first, then he followed. They walked into the living room.

Sam and Mike were sitting on the couch, the looks of panic still on their faces. They were both trembling uncontrollably.

Blaine was sitting on the loveseat next to the couch.

Kurt motioned for Finn to sit in the easy chair, and he moved to sit next to Blaine on the loveseat.

Everyone sat for a very uncomfortable thirty seconds, then Finn said, "So are you guys havin' sex?"

Kurt's hands flew to his face and he shook his head.

Sam and Mike both turned ghost white.

Blaine had to clap his hand to his mouth to prevent himself from bursting out laughing. Several snorts did escape from under his hand, however.

Kurt looked directly at his brother and said, "Finn, do you remember what we discussed in the kitchen?"

"Yes." came the quiet reply.

"And what did we say you were going to do?"

"Be quiet."

"And what are you doing right now?"

"Talking...asking questions."

"Yes you are. Are we going to start being quiet now?"

"Yes."

"Thank you."

Blaine leaned over to Kurt and murmured, "Thirty seconds. That's gotta be some kind of personal best for poor Finn."

Kurt nudged Blaine and whispered, "Shh," while trying not to laugh.

Everyone sat there for another several seconds of painful silence.

Then, Mike started to speak. "Finn, I guess you must be wondering what's happening here."

Finn just nodded, his eyes wide.

Mike sighed and looked over at Sam who was giving him silent encouragement with his eyes. Mike continued, "Well, I guess you can tell that there's something going on between us." He clasped Sam's hand, and Sam gave his a gentle squeeze. "We've started seeing each other romantically. We made it official last weekend. It's something that both of us have been wanting to do for some time, and we finally just admitted it to ourselves and each other. We're taking things kind of slow for now and haven't decided when to make a formal announcement to everyone. That's pretty much the gist of the story. Do you have any questions."

Finn looked over to Kurt for permission.

Kurt gave a quick nod.

Blaine had to stifle another snort with his hand and got another nudge from Kurt.

"So, this is why you broke up with Tina?" Finn asked.

"Pretty much, yeah." Mike answered, "Once we decided we were going to try this together, I had to tell her the truth."

"So are you guys doin' it?" Finn asked.

Kurt put his face in his hands and shook his head.

"Well, that's kind of private." Sam said.

"But it's the question you will get asked over and over." Blaine said, "Trust me on this. So, I guess you can keep it private or just give a basic answer like we've had to start doing."

"At least you're only going to have friends from one school quizzing you." Kurt said, resignedly, "We've had to field these from Dalton and McKinley."

"We're taking it slow." Sam said, his tone indicating that was the final answer.

"And we haven't told everyone yet, so can you keep this under wraps for awhile?" Mike asked.

"Well, I really didn't see this one coming." Finn said, "I mean Kurt I kind of knew about from the beginning, and we met Blaine as Kurt's new gay friend. But, I guess if you guys are happy..."

"We are." Sam said.

Finn shrugged his shoulders. "Cool."

Mike and Sam both looked at each other as though they were expecting more. They looked over at Kurt and Blaine who both shrugged their shoulders as well.

"We've kind of been the test case for the reactions," Blaine said, "And this is pretty much what you're going to get from most of our social circle."

"Oh, except for at least one extremely lewd question from Puckerman." Kurt said, "You can expect that too."

Blaine nodded in agreement.

"Is there anything to eat in the kitchen?" Finn said, standing and heading to the kitchen, "I'm starving."

"There's some leftovers from the dinner I made us." Kurt said, "Blaine didn't eat much."

"Is it that weird healthy stuff you make?" Finn asked, "If so he probably wants some real food." He disappeared through the swinging door.

"I'm trying to keep the people I love alive when they're old." Kurt called, "That includes you Finn."

Finn walked out, his hand buried in a bag of potato chips. "Who wants to be old eating bird food?" He walked over and held the bag out to Blaine who glanced at Kurt and grabbed a couple of chips.

"Ugh you two are impossible." Kurt said, throwing his hands in the air.

"I love you." Blaine said, eating a chip and then leaning over for a kiss.

"You think I want to kiss you with potato chip grease all over your face?" Kurt asked, shocked.

"Isn't that the best time to kiss someone?" Finn asked.

Kurt sighed and kissed his boyfriend.

Sam and Mike were still sitting there, kind of dazed at the lack of reaction from Finn and how quickly everything just slid back to normal.

Finn walked to the stairs, "I'm going up to my room to play Halo. Anyone else coming?"

Blaine started to bounce excitedly, but didn't speak.

Kurt looked over at him. Then, he stood up and pulled his boyfriend off of the loveseat. "Go and play the game you overgrown little boy. I'll straighten up in here for awhile."

Blaine kissed his boyfriend and headed to the stairs to follow Finn.

Finn looked at Sam and Mike, "You two coming?"

"You...you want us to?" Sam asked.

"Yeah, of course." Finn said, "I still need to beat your score, Sam. And Mike's falling behind all of us. For an Asian, you're terrible at video games."

"I'm Chinese." Mike said, "I think you're getting me confused with the Japanese tech kids."

"Whatever," Finn said, "You still suck at Halo, and you're gonna get your ass kicked by my new guest, the Hobbit. So, are you coming or what?"

Sam sat for a minute. Then he said, "Yeah." He stood up and headed over to them.

"I'll be up in a minute." Mike said, watching them go upstairs.

Kurt walked into the kitchen and Mike followed him. Kurt started washing the dishes and Mike sat at the table.

"Need a hand?" Mike asked.

"Nah, I got it." Kurt turned to glance at Mike who was looking off into space, "You okay?"

"Yeah," Mike said, "I guess I was just expecting more. Maybe a little more shock or more questions. I don't know...more something."

Kurt just shrugged his shoulders, "No one really cares Mike. I spent my entire life freaking out about it, and it ended up going over without a shrug in glee. I mean the people who picked on me before continued, the people who were there for me before were still there for me."

"But Karofsky chased you out of school after you came out."

"Karofsky would have probably escalated no matter what." Kurt said, drying his hands off and turning to Mike. He was weighing his words carefully to make sure he didn't say too much. "There were a lot of things going on in his head that was making the situation worse. That would have happened no matter what. But as much as I hated leaving McKinley and all of you guys, I don't regret anything. I got more out of it than I ever thought I would." He cast his eyes upward indicating Blaine upstairs.

Mike nodded.

"Plus, I got to be in an environment for awhile that let me be whoever I wanted." Kurt continued, "No one at Dalton cared who I wanted to date. They accepted me without question because I was capable and talented. I made some good friends there who I still intend to keep in touch with. There will be some New Directions/Warblers get-togethers this summer. But Dalton taught me a lot about myself. I'm gonna take those lessons with me when I come back."

"Maybe we should go to Dalton for six months." Mike said, chuckling.

"Not when I'm just about to come back you're not." Kurt said, "I expect all of you to be there when I get back."

"And you're coming back just in time for Mr. Schue's latest Gaga lesson." Mike said.

"I beg your pardon?"

"Mercedes and Rach didn't tell you?"

"No they've been talking non stop about Rachel's nose job."

Mike gave Kurt a sly look, "Mr. Schue has assigned us to pick something that we were born with and would have liked to change, but that we've come to accept about ourselves. Then we're going to do a number to Born This Way."

"Seriously?" Kurt said, laughing out loud, "I think I've got that lesson down cold."

"We're making t-shirts with our things on them."

"Prada bless Mr. Schue and his Gaga lessons." Kurt said, " Are the boys participating this time?"

"Yes."

"Should be interesting." Kurt said, "What is yours going to say?"

Mike looked down at the table, "I'm not sure yet."

"Hmm."

"You wanna go upstairs and join the others?" Mike asked.

"Nah, you go ahead."

Mike stood up and walked out of the kitchen.

Sam and Mike stayed for about another hour playing games in Finn's room.

After they left, Blaine stayed in Finn's room for about another half hour playing. By the time he was done, Kurt was changed and in his bedroom. Blaine walked into Kurt's room when Finn was ready for bed.

When Blaine tried to kiss him, Kurt gave him the silent treatment for abandoning him to video games for so long. That lasted for about two minutes before he relented and opened his arms for his boyfriend to join him.

The next day began Sam's moving weekend. Mike had asked him earlier if he wanted help moving their stuff out of the house. Sam had told him no and dropped the subject. Mike decided he would let Sam have his space for the weekend.

Around noon on Saturday Mike got a call from Puck.

"Finn and I were talking about going to the park to play some touch football." Puck said, "You wanna come?"

"Yeah sure." Mike answered.

"Hey, have you heard from Sam at all today?" Puck asked, "I've been trying to call him, but his phone is going directly to voicemail."

"I haven't heard from him." Mike said, trying to not lie but not give any more information than was necessary. "I think he's doing family stuff this weekend. He may be busy and not answering his phone."

"What kind of teenager turns his phone off?" Puck said, "Isn't that against the law or something? Well, get dressed and meet us as soon as you can."

When Mike got to the park he saw everyone was already there. Finn, Puck, and Blaine were throwing the ball back and forth. Rachel, Mercedes, Tina, and Kurt were sitting in the grass, chatting amongst themselves and occasionally looking at the boys. Mike walked over to Puck.

"Since Sam is still incommunicado we recruited Anderson to play." Puck explained, "He's little, but he's feisty."

Mike laughed. He turned and looked at the girls and Kurt.

Tina was looking anywhere but at him.

Kurt looked at him with a questioning look in his eye, probably wondering where Sam was. Family stuff had been the standard excuse and so far everyone seemed to be just going with that and not asking anymore questions.

The boys played for awhile and when they were suitably hot and sweaty enough, they took a break and walked over to the blanket where the girls were, to rest and have some water.

Tina looked up at Mike, who was talking to Mercedes, and said, "Can we walk and have a talk?"

Mike nodded and he held out his hand to help her stand. The two of them started walking toward the playground.

When they got there, Tina sat in one of the swings while Mike held on to the side bars of the swing set and let his body hang and swing freely while he gripped the bars.

They were there in silence for a few minutes, then Mike spoke, "Are you okay?"

"I think so." she said, not looking at him, "Are you?"

"Yeah. I think so too. I'm sorry again."

"It's okay. I guess I should be grateful you were honest. You could have just let it go on, pulling further and further away."

"I never could have done that to you." he said, moving to a swing next to her and sitting in it.

"I know. You're a nice guy. Sam's a nice guy. Hating either of you isn't really an option. Not to mention, we're stuck together in glee. Considering how many other pairings have gone on in the group, you're actually falling behind anyway. I must admit though, you do get points for originality. You'll be the first gay couple in the group. Kind of ironic considering Kurt's been there since the beginning, and it's two of the football players who end up as a couple."

"What have you been doing?" he asked.

"Mercedes and Rachel and I went out a few times this week. To take my mind off everything. Shopping, ice cream, that sort of stuff. Kurt went for the ice cream, but his heart wasn't in the complaining about boyfriends."

"He missed out on the shopping?" Mike asked with disbelief.

"He was stuck up at school that day."

"He's happier than I've ever seen him."

"He deserves it. They're a perfect couple. I've also talked to Artie a couple of times. He's been a little down. Brittany has been acting weird."

"Weird or weird for Brittany?" Mike said, getting a laugh from Tina.

"He said she's been real distant lately. She's been hanging out with Santana a lot. I told him maybe they're having an affair."

Mike chuckled nervously at that.

"So what do you think they're talking about?" Mercedes asked Kurt, glancing in the direction Mike and Tina had walked, "Do you think he's asking her to take him back?"

"She asked him to go on the walk." Kurt explained, "Somehow I doubt that's what they're doing. I guess they're just being nice to each other. Maybe she's forgiving him.

"She should make him twist in the wind awhile longer." Mercedes said, a mischievous glint in her eye.

"That's terrible." Kurt said, "Hopefully they're just talking and airing everything out."

Puck stood up and said, "Okay, halftime's over." He looked around and noticed Mike was missing. "What the hell...where's Mike?"

"He went off with Tina a little while ago." Rachel said, "Maybe they're making up."

Finn laughed out loud at that.

Kurt shot him a dirty look, shutting him up.

"So you and Artie?" Mike asked, "Is there something there?"

"I don't know." Tina answered, "It's hard to say. I mean he was hurt last summer when we broke up. I think he's thinking about it, but he's moving slowly. I am too. I mean I broke up with him because of you. I don't know if it's a good idea for me to immediately stop with you and go right back to him."

Mike nodded.

"Have you told your parents yet?" she asked.

"God no." he said, "I'm dreading that."

"Your mother is not going to take it well at all. I remember what she said when she met Kurt after Sectionals."

"Oh my God, don't remind me. I never told you this, but she kept it up after we got home."

"Kept what up?"

"Talking about him. She started making all these comments about him and about what kind of parent Mr. Hummel must be to let him 'act like that.' Ugh, she made me so mad, we ended up getting into a big fight."

"You fought with your mother?" she asked, incredulously.

"Yeah," he answered, "Unbelievable, huh? I just couldn't let her talk about my friends that way. And couldn't let her talk about..."

"About you?" she said, her voice soft. She reached out and put a hand on his shoulder

"Yeah. You know, I wasn't even thinking about that at the time. I mean, the feelings were starting to form. I didn't know what was going on. At the time I just thought it was about Kurt and Mr. Hummel. That made me so mad. I mean he was my friend. I respected him. I really respected Mr. Hummel. He had just asked us to perform at his wedding. I just couldn't let her talk about them that way. Now I guess I see there was more to it."

"You know sometimes I think about how much has changed in the last two years." she said, looking off into the distance, "Almost two years ago I joined glee club. I didn't have many friends. I still had a fake stutter. I never even thought about the possibility of a boyfriend. Now I'm sitting here with an ex-boyfriend who just happens to be one of the hottest guys in the school, and we're just talking...like..."

"Friends." he finished.

"Like friends." she said, "Ugh, I was such a mess two years ago I never could have done something like this. I guess we're all growing up, huh?"

"I guess it had to happen despite our best efforts." he said, a smile playing across his lips.

"You know you're gonna need to tell your friends soon?" she said quietly

"I know." he said, "I'm just not looking forward to it spreading around school. But we do need to say something. The entire glee club is finding out in dribbles anyway."

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"Well, you know." he said, "Now Santana, Brittany, and Finn have all found out."

"You told all of them?" she asked.

"No, not really." he answered, "Santana and Brittany kind of stumbled across us kissing in school. We were at Kurt's house last night, and Finn came home while we were kissing on the couch."

"Maybe you should kiss less." she said, a grin on her face.

"That's a bad option." he said, grinning back.

"No comment."

"So, we good?" he asked

"Yeah, we're good."

He stood up and grasped her hand and gently pulled her up. He moved to her and embraced her.

"Make sure he treats you okay." she whispered.

"Come on," he said, a smile on his lips, "This is Sam we're talking about. He's not like that."

She nodded.

He put his arm around her and they headed back. When they reached the others, Tina sat down and Mike went to finish the game.

"So," Rachel began, "What happened?"

"We just talked." Tina said, "Got some stuff out. We're friends again."

Kurt put his hand on her knee, "I'm glad."

"Me too." she said, turning to watch the boys play the game.
