Now, let's get back to the story...
OooO
Blaine paid the toilet paper he had just bought and left the store, heading back home. He just hoped Kurt and Rachel had finished their talk, because he definitely didn't want to hear them talk about Rachel's boyfriend. He didn't like Sebastian. He didn't know why, but he didn't like him. There was something about that Sebastian. Rachel deserved so much better than this guy.
Blaine wasn't thinking about himself, of course not. He didn't have that sort of feelings for her anymore. He had, but it was a long time ago. Now, he was in a perfect relationship with the perfect boyfriend. But he cared about her, and he wished she wasn't dating Sebastian.
Why was she even dating someone like him? And why hadn't she told him she had a boyfriend right away? He thought they were pretty close now. They had left the past behind them, and Rachel was one of his closest friend.
He entered the building and called the elevator. He really hoped Rachel and Kurt had finished talking, because he really didn't want to hear about Rachel's boyfriend. Just to think about the two of them together, it made him angry somehow.
He took a deep breath and opened the door of the flat. He didn't here anything at first, and he was relived. But then, Rachel's voice came to his ears.
"I... I don't know what to say..." She said.
Blaine couldn't really identify what made her voice so trembly.
"Please, don't say anything. I know one day, I will have to say the truth, but I'm not ready yet." Kurt said, his voice low.
They didn't say anything for a few seconds, and then Rachel spoke.
"Kurt..." She said.
And he didn't know why, but something pushed him to enter the living room. He felt like he had heard something he wasn't supposed to heard, and he didn't want to pretend he wasn't there anymore.
"Hey," Blaine said, Kurt and Rachel's head turning to face him, "I... I bought the toilet paper."
His boyfriend and his friend just nodded quietly.
"What were you talking about?" He asked, not sure if he should have asked.
"Oh, we just talked about Rachel's boyfriend." Kurt said, too quickly, and Rachel nodded.
Blaine knew it wasn't true. He knew. But somehow, he didn't really want to know what was the topic of their discussion. He felt like it would be better if he ignored it.
OooO
Rachel and Blaine were having their usual coffee meeting. But Rachel was stirring her spoon in her coffee since they had been sat, and she hadn't said a word. Something was wrong, but he didn't know what.
"Rachel," he asked, and she finally looked at him, "is everything okay?"
"Yes, of course." She said, composing herself.
But Blaine wasn't blind, and he knew she was lying.
"Hey, Rach, I know you. And I know there's something you're not telling me because you seem upset. I know I've been acting weird too, and..."
He stopped, realizing that he hadn't been really honest with her lately and that he had been acting weird too.
"I was hurt that you didn't even told me you had a boyfriend, and I guess I've been distant since then. And I'm sorry because now I realize that I might have been the reason why things have become weird between us lately." He admitted.
She looked at him straight on the eyes, and he could feel a hint of sadness in her beautiful brown eyes.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were feeling this way." She said.
"You know what? Let's put this behind us. I enjoy spending time with you Rachel, and I hope you do too." He said.
"I do." She said with a smile.
And so they spent the rest of their time together laughing, and talking about anything and everything and he was so happy he got to make her laugh again. It was simple times like that that made him so grateful that Rachel had accepted to be his friend despite what had happened between them. Grateful that he got to see her smile so often.
"Well, well, well..." He heard a familiar masculine voice.
Connor was walking toward them, a smirk on his face. Seriously, why him? The only person Blaine had told about his past with Rachel?
"Hey! How are you?" Blaine answered.
"I'm fine, I'm fine... who is this lovely lady?" Connor asked.
"Connor, this is Rachel, one of my friend from High School. Rachel, this is Connor, one of my friend who goes to NYU." He said, even though Connor knew everything about Rachel.
"Nice to meet you Connor." Rachel said with a smile.
"Well, it's nice to meet one of Blaine's friend. He didn't tell me you were so beautiful." Connor said, and Blaine knew he was flirting, and it was infuriating him.
"Don't bother," Blaine said, trying to stay calm, "she has a boyfriend."
Connor raised an eyebrow at him.
"Blaine didn't told me about that either. Well, I gotta go, but Blaine I hope we will have time to talk later." He winked and he left the coffee shop.
Blaine knew he couldn't escape this talk with Connor, but he would try anyway.
Rachel's phone rang, and she took it, smiling when she saw who was calling.
"I have to take this, it's Sebastian." She said, getting up.
And as she walked away from him to take her call, he repeated to himself that he wasn't jealous. He couldn't be. Right?
OooO
The next day, Blaine was walking in the school hallway, when Connor suddenly appeared next to him.
"I know you're trying to avoid this talk but it's not going to work, Blaine." He said.
"A talk, what talk? I don't know what you're talking about, and I'm busy anyway." He answered, continuing to walk.
"Haha, very funny." Connor said sarcastically, before grabbing Blaine's arm and stopping him.
"I don't even know what you want to talk about." Blaine said.
"Oh yeah, it's not like you hadn't told me that Rachel had a boyfriend and that it's not making you happy."
"I don't care about her boyfriend." Blaine said.
"Come on, you were fuming when you said 'she has a boyfriend', Blaine." Connor said.
Okay, maybe he wasn't really found of Rachel's boyfriend, but it wasn't the fact that she was dating someone that was bothering him.
"You're jealous." Connor said after a few seconds.
"No, I'm not!" Blaine protested.
"When I approached you yesterday I saw how you looked at her, I know you miss the time when you two were making out for hours in your bedroom."
Blaine shocked his head repeating "no."
"You can lie to yourself, but you can't lie to me." Connor said.
And deep down, Blaine knew it was true, he was jealous. He lived for the little moments he shared with Rachel, and it killed him when he knew she was with Sebastian, or when he saw her calling her boyfriend and laughing at his jokes.
Because Blaine wanted to be the one who made Rachel laugh, and smile. The one she was singing along to musicals with, the one who she was kissing and cuddling.
But he didn't understand why. He had Kurt, and everything was fine with Kurt. So why was he thinking about Rachel? He was supposed to be thinking about his boyfriend, but despite everything, even if he knew he shouldn't, he couldn't stop thinking about Rachel.
And even if he knew he should stop seeing her, because this situation was messed up, he couldn't. They were friends. But one day, as he listened to Rachel singing while preparing popcorn, Blaine couldn't help but think about a time when they were more than friends.
OooO
After class, he hung out with Connor after making him promess not to talk about Rachel. Then he came back home, but Kurt wasn't there. Kurt wasn't home often lately anyway, Blaine thought, sighing.
He sat on the couch, watching TV. Kurt arrived. Late. As always.
"Finally." Blaine sighed.
"What?" Kurt asked, taking his coat and his shoes off.
"I'm just saying that lately you're not home often." Blaine stated.
"Stop, don't make me the bad one!" Kurt replied. "You're not home often either, always with Connor, or Rachel, or studying! So don't blame me for the lack of time spent together." He said before going to the bedroom and slamming the door behind him.
Blaine knew he should go after him and talk with his boyfriend. But really, he was to tired for that, and he just slept on the couch.
The next morning, they sat next to each other and both apologized for the things they had said the previous day, even if they knew it was true. And then, everything was back to normal. Or at least, they acted like nothing had ever happened. Like there wasn't any problem. And that was the problem, Blaine knew it. But at the same time, he was ignoring it, acting as if everything was fine when it clearly no longer was.
OooO
"What are you doing here?" Rachel asked when she left her classroom and saw Blaine standing in the hallway.
Blaine had finished class early, and he had decided to go see Rachel. On the way to NYADA, he had been worried that she wouldn't like it and ask him why he was there. But as Rachel threw herself into Blaine's arm, he was sure it had been a good idea.
They held each other for a moment, and during this moment, it felt like nothing else matter. And then Rachel stopped.
"I'm sorry, I'm just... happy to see you." She said.
And she couldn't know it, but those words, those simple words made him so happy and he smiled.
"I can't say I didn't like it." He said, and he noticed that she blushed shyly. "So... I though we could maybe... go to Central Park and just spend some time together."
"Sounds great." She said.
So they went to Central Park, bought two hot dogs and sat on a bench. They just laughed and talked for hours.
"So, how is it going with Sebastian?" He asked.
He didn't really want to know, didn't want to hear her saying how her boyfriend was wonderful. But he felt like he had to, because he wanted to be a good friend.
"I broke up with him." She simply said, and he almost choke on his hotdog.
"What?" He asked.
"I broke up with Sebastian. Don't get me wrong, he is awesome, and I had so much fun with him. But I just like him as a friend." She explained.
He wasn't glad. He doesn't wanted to be glad. But he had to admit that he was just a little bit relieved.
He just nodded, not knowing what to say. And then his phone rand, Kurt's name appearing on the screen.
"It's Kurt." He said.
"Oh," she said, suddenly seeming nervous, "You should take it then, I mean, it's your boyfriend you should answer." She said.
He raised an eyebrow. He didn't know why she had so suddenly acted differently. But something told him he didn't really wanted to know.
OooO
"I'm going out today." Blaine said.
It was the morning, and Kurt was pouring milk into a bawl of cereal.
"Where?" He asked
"Rachel just passed a big exam and she's stressing for her grade so we're going to Central Park and then we're getting ready to see Waitress on Broadway and then we're going to eat something at a restaurant." Blaine explained.
"Okay, have fun!" Kurt said, and Blaine kissed his boyfriend before going in the bathroom to take a shower.
And Rachel and Blaine did had fun. The show was awesome, and they even stagedoored and spotted a few of their favorite actors and actresses, Rachel dreaming of when it would be her, but they didn't went to the restaurant, because Rachel was too tired. So Blaine suggested that they went to his and Kurt's apartment to eat and that she could sleep on the couch.
So they went home, but when he opened the door, he wasn't ready to see a guy half naked on top of his boyfriend on the couch.
He was frozen. He saw the guy putting his clothes on and leaving, Rachel who was shocked, and Kurt, who was apologizing. But he wasn't really listening. Until he heard Rachel saying "I'm sorry."
He looked at her, she was almost trembling.
"I'm so sorry. I should have told you." She said.
And then he understood.
"You what? You knew it?" He shouted, and everyone else was silent. "You fucking knew that my boyfriend was cheating on me and you fucking didn't think you should tell me?"
"I... I just didn't know how..." She said with a weak voice.
"I think you should go." He said, not looking at her.
"What?" She asked.
"Get out!" He shouted, and she immediately left, leaving Blaine and Kurt.
He didn't really remember what happened then, but there was a lot of screaming, and shouting, and arguing, and at the end, Blaine threw Kurt out of the flat.
When Blaine was alone, he took a bottle of wine, and starting to drink to forget everything. And he didn't know how, but he found himself calling Rachel.
"Blaine, I'm so sorry, I didn't know how to tell you." She said through the phone.
"Can you come over?" He simply asked, hopping she would say yes.
And she did. When he opened the door she entered and gasped.
"Have you been drinking?" She asked, but Blaine noticed that Rachel was a bit tipsy too.
"Just a few glasses." He said, glancing towards the bottle of wine on the floor.
"Blaine, please just forgive me, you can't imagine how bad I feel, I..." She said, but he shushed her with a finger on her mouth, getting closer to her and starting to kiss her neck.
"What... What are you doing?" She asked, her voice weak.
"What do you think I am doing?" He said, kissing her neck again.
"Blaine, stop, we can't do this." She said, but she wasn't pushing him away.
"Why?" He said, putting a strand of her hair behind her ear. "Kurt cheated, I don't see why I couldn't do it too."
And he kissed her. She kissed him back at first, but then she broke the kiss.
"No, Blaine, we shouldn't..." She said.
But then he was crashing his lips against hers, and she wasn't protesting. She wasn't protesting either when he asked entrance in her mouth, their tongs dancing together, or when he lead her to the bedroom, kissing her more passionately as she moaned. He took off his shirt, Rachel taking off her top and he unhooked her bra, kissing her again.
The feeling of her skin against his, of her kisses, of her nails sinking in his back. He couldn't get enough of her.
He just hoped this night would never end.
A.N./ The end... I hope you like it ;)
