Hey hey! Tell me if I'm kinda annoying you with my ANs. (Cause I kinda enjoy talking to you guys… it's almost like having friends.)
Kurt's POV
Kurt ignored his father calling him. He ignored his brother banging on his door, demanding to be let in. In fact, he ignored everything that didn't have to do with his thoughts, which were currently revolving around one thing- Blaine. He buried his tear-stained face deeper into his pillow, hoping to smother his feelings and maybe drift off into a peaceful sleep. He would probably just have more nightmares involving a drunk Sebastian and an angry Blaine… It had been only three days since their break-up, and Kurt hadn't come out of his room since.
He was hungry and tired (he was afraid to sleep because of the nightmares) but he barely noticed. Kurt barely felt anything anymore. He felt like nothing was worth the energy to do anything. Finn just kept yelling at the door. It was beginning to give Kurt a headache. What would be the harm of letting him in? Kurt could just nod and pretend to listen while his father lectured him on how Blaine was all wrong for him. Kurt choked back a sob. "It's over." That just kept replaying over and over in his mind as he finally rolled off of his bed and trudged to the door.
"Finally! God, Kurt, are you okay?" Finn said, barging into his room. Kurt just nodded as his dad ran into the room. "Kurt- what happened? Did he hurt you?" Kurt, face expressionless, shook his head. He wasn't allowed to feel anymore. "Then what happened? Why did you lock yourself in here for three days? Your mom and I have been worried sick about you! Do you know how many times Mercedes came over here?" Kurt just stood there, staring into space. They just stared at him, so he decided to speak. His voice was flat and toneless. "Nothing happened dad, we just-"
But his voice cracked and he felt the tears running free from the corners of his eyes. Finn was there in a second, wrapping his arms around him. Kurt sobbed into his brother's shoulder as his dad just watched, uncertain of what to do. "I'm getting my shotgun." He said finally, turning to leave. "No dad, it wasn't his fault! It was mine, I-I…" but Kurt could no longer continue. All of the emotions he had held back were resurfacing, not to mention how hungry he was. Greif, guilt, sorrow, anger, they were all there. It felt like a huge, gaping hole had been punched through his chest, and he suddenly couldn't breathe. Where had he heard that before? The last thing he remembered was Finn's worried expression, and then everything went black.
Blaine's POV
How could he have been so stupid? Maybe his dad was right, maybe he shouldn't be gay. He got enough compliments from girls to at least act straight. Blaine continued to pace his room, holding back tears. Why did he have to cry? Apparently Kurt had never truly loved him, so why did his heart feel so broken? "Because you still love him." He said aloud to himself. "No, that's stupid! Why would you love someone who doesn't love you?" he thought, sitting on his bed. Where he and Kurt had made love. No, it wasn't love, it was just sex. Is that what Kurt wanted all along?
"I should really stop thinking about him. And talking to myself." Blaine said. He could always ask Sebastian. Or punch him in the face for taking the only thing in life, besides music, that brought him true happiness. Yes, punching sounded nice. What if he and Kurt could still be friends? Impossible. They had been through so much together. Well, maybe… that would give him an excuse to talk to him every day, maybe "accidentally" brush hands together… NO! If they were going to be friends, Blaine had to stop thinking of him as a boyfriend. He sighed and reached for his phone, quickly texting five simple words that would hopefully bring him one step closer to winning back his boyfriend.
Er, friend. Yes, friend.
Kurt's POV
Kurt woke up to his phone buzzing. His head hurt like crazy. As he reached for his phone, he tried to think back to what happened. Oh. He fainted and hit his head on the floor. "Blaine?" he whispered as he read the text. "Can I talk to you?" Kurt glared at the screen as if it were really his ex. Ex… so depressing. This could be a chance to get him back, though! But what if Blaine wanted to see him just so he could tell him how he never loved him and how he was so happy they broke up… no, Blaine wouldn't do that. He is polite and dapper, and funny, and caring, and handsome... "Okay, crossing the line." Kurt thought as he sent his reply. "Sure, I'll C U the LB 12:00 4 lunch?" "Just friends, just friends, just friends…" he repeated over and over as he got dressed.
As Kurt walked out the front door, Finn came up behind him. "Where you going, little bro?" "Finn, as I've said before, I am older than you. Height doesn't automatically make you the 'big brother'. I'm going to… see Mercedes. Didn't Dad say she's been worried about me?" Kurt half turned to face him, but kept walking. "Um, you kind of just had an emotional breakdown. Is it safe for you to leave the house?" Kurt just rolled his eyes at his brother's concern as his phone buzzed. "Great. See you there." Kurt's stomach did little flips. Great, this was just like their first date all over again! "Uh, sorry Finn, got to go! If dad asks, I'm at 'Cedes' house!"
Kurt practically ran to his car. "Not a date, not a date, not a date." He muttered to himself as he drove. This was going to be a long date. Day! Not date, day…
Blaine's POV
Blaine waited nervously outside of the coffee shop. "Why am I doing this?" he whispered to himself as Kurt's Navigator perfectly parallel-parked. God, everything about him was perfect. "Friend, friend, friend..." Blaine reminded himself as Kurt got out and flashed him a brief, small smile. "…you wanted to talk?" Kurt said after a little while. "Um, yeah, can we go inside?" Blaine said as Kurt nodded and went first. They sat at a table after Kurt ordered his usual and also, Blaine's medium drip. "Oh God, he still remembers my coffee order!" he thought as he sipped at the warm drink. "Well, this is awkward." Kurt said, laughing. "Isn't it always?" Blaine replied, smiling.
"You're the one who forced me here, so… what do you want?"
"I forced you here? Aw, I thought you came on your own free will. I'm hurt."
"I'm kidding!"
"Do I really need an excuse to talk to you?"
"You do now, I guess…"
"Well, I was actually wondering i-if we, um, c-could still be, like, friends?"
"It seems like we're going in reverse. Time warp!"
"Kurt, you're changing the subject."
"You know me so well. Yes, I think we could still be friends. Remember, I promised to never say goodbye to you."
Blaine smiled, and Kurt smiled back. "God, it seems like forever ago since we were Warblers. Well, since you were anyway." Blaine said. Kurt rolled his eyes and just kept smiling. "You know, sometimes I still sing a-capella in my room." Blaine laughed and Kurt joined in. When Blaine met Kurt's eyes, however, the laughter died and Kurt averted his eyes. "It's always going to be there, isn't it? That awkwardness." Kurt whispered. "Yes. Yes, I think so. But tell me one thing. Why did you do it? Date me? When you could've had any guy. What was it about me?" Blaine questioned.
"Have any guy? Yeah, right! I guess you were just the first guy I could actually get. I mean, Finn and Puck threw me in dumpsters, Mike likes Tina, Sam, Wes, David… no gay guys. Plus when you sing, I mean when you sang Teenage Dream, it was just like, 'Wow, I have to get to know that guy!'. It was kind of like love at first sound." Kurt blushed and looked at the table. Blaine knitted his eyebrows together. "But… then why did you go to Sebastian?"
"Oh, I honestly don't remember much of that night!" Kurt laughed. "I actually got drunk! Can you believe it? Anyway, Sebastian said something about me being no fun, so I had a couple beers, just to prove him wrong. Then he offered to kiss me. I remember saying no and walking off, but then you were there and yelling at me because Sebastian attacked my face…" Kurt replied, trailing off. "So… you didn't kiss Sebastian on purpose?" Blaine asked quietly. "Um, guess not. I don't know if you can kiss someone on accident. I mean, I remember telling him no. He probably gave me another beer and somehow got me to kiss him." Kurt scrunched his eyes up, trying to remember.
"Come with me." Blaine suddenly said. They had to get somewhere away from prying eyes. "What- Blaine!" Kurt tried to protest, but Blaine grabbed his hand anyway, towing him outside and down an alleyway. "Blaine, are you okay? Are you going to mug me? My dad gave me mace. I'm not kidding." Kurt said, stepping back. "No, I'm not going to mug you. I-I-" he tried to say. Kurt reached for his bag, but Blaine grabbed his hand again. Why would Burt give Kurt mace? He was going to have to do this. "Kurt, I- I'm so, so sorry. Words cannot describe how sorry I am. I overreacted. I was jealous and mean and I wish we never ever broke up!" he said in a breathless rush.
Kurt just stared at him. "Well?" Blaine said nervously. Then he could see tears welling up in Kurt's eyes. "Oh crap, what did I say? I'm so-!" but Kurt had lunged at him, securing Blaine in a death-grip. He felt Kurt's frame shaking and, instinctively put his arms around him. "Blaine! I don't know what happened or why I did what I did but…" Kurt said, but was overcome with sobs that wracked his whole body. Blaine just held him until the crying stopped. "Okay, breaking up officially sucks." he said, pulling back to look at Kurt's face. "God, Kurt, you look terrible." "Thanks. If it sucks so much, let's never do it again." Kurt replied, sniffling. "Does that mean we're back together?"
In response, Kurt just softly pressed his lips to Blaine. "Does that answer your question?" he said after breaking the kiss. "Um, I wasn't done kissing you!" Blaine said. Kurt laughed and kissed Blaine again. "Better. Now I'm going to go, in my politest words, kick Sebastian's ass." Blaine said, stalking out of the alley. Kurt followed behind, grabbing Blaine's hand. "No way are you wasting any more time on Sebastian! Besides, we have three whole days to make up. In fact, as I recall, we still have a couple Harry Potter movies to watch." Kurt said. Blaine smiled. "I believe we do."
Happy endings! Yay! Also, if anyone can recognize my Harry Potter quote anywhere on the page and tell me their name, I will let them have a cameo on my next chapter!
Edit: If you're stumpted on the quote, check my review board-thingie. I leave hints! In fact, I think I'll make this a regular thing, now that I know people actually try... so REVIEW!
