A/N: So, here is the first part of Kurt's overnight at Dalton! I really love Kurt at Dalton, and I can't wait to get him there for real! Here's some Niff and David fluff (I couldn't help myself!).
Disclaimer: I do not own in any way Glee or Darren Criss or Chris Colfer, or anything I may mention...though it'd be fun! =D
Chapter 10—Movie Night
At fifteen minutes to one the next day, Kurt called me.
"Hi!" I greeted him.
"Hi!" he answered back, just as chipper.
"So, we still on for 3?" I checked.
"Yup! I was just calling to let you know I'm leaving soon. I should be there in around two hours." Kurt said.
"Perfect!"
"Um, I was wondering, how late will I be staying? Dad wants to know." Kurt asked me.
"Why don't you stay over? That way we can stay up however late we want to, and you can drive back tomorrow morning/afternoon. Whatever works for you is fine." I suggested.
"Okay, let me just check with my dad." Kurt said. There was silence on the other end for a minute or so until Kurt said, "Yup, that should work! I might be a little late, I need to pack now."
"Kurt, you don't need to bring anything, really. Just throw in a pair of jeans, a shirt, a toothbrush, and your phone. We have sleeping bags, blankets, and pillows here." I told him.
There was silence until Kurt said, "For the sake of preserving this friendship, I'm going to forget that you just said that. I'll go pack now." then he hung up the phone on me chuckling at Kurt's fashion needs.
About twenty minutes later, Kurt called me back. "Okay, so I have stuff for tonight and tomorrow. I'm in my car, and I have my suitcase, my wallet, and my phone. Is there anything I'm missing?" he asked.
"Nope." I said.
"Okay. See you soon." he told me, then there was silence. I was about to hang up when I heard something through the phone.
It was music, the intro to Defying Gravity. After the intro, a voice chimed in, a voice I knew well by now. Kurt must have forgotten to end the call and thrown his phone on the seat or something, because I could hear him perfectly.
Even though I'd already heard him sing this song at least three times, I still listened, transfixed by his beautiful high voice. His voice seemed to naturally slide over ever note, smoothly switching from low to high and back again.
Once he finished, he went on to Born This Way by Lady Gaga. Then, he went on to Telephone, also by Lady Gaga. The versatility of his voice astounded me. It seemed like his voice could fit any song easily, effortlessly changing to match the song.
As he moved on to Keep Holding On, Wes and David entered my room.
"Hey, so is-" Wes started, but I shushed him, pointing to my phone.
"What?" he whispered.
"Kurt forgot to end the call, and he's singing in his car." I whispered back, and put it on speakerphone so they could hear him.
Wes and David listened for a second, until David said, "Okay, slightly creepy, but anyway, I guess that answers our question of is the movie marathon still on."
"Of course it's still on!" I told them.
"Great! So whose room are we using?" David asked.
"Are your beds still pushed together?" I asked them.
They glanced at each other, and I could swear Wes blushed slightly. "Uh, yes, actually." he admitted.
"We didn't have a chance to separate them from last night with Niff." David put in quickly.
I shrugged, not wanting to make them uncomfortable. "Whatever. So can we use your room?"
"Sure." Wes answered. "I'll tell Niff. When does it start?"
"Well, Kurt's going to get here around 3, and I was wondering if I should give him a tour, or just start the marathon..." I pondered this question.
"How about this: give Kurt a quick tour, mainly just the library, Warbler's room, cafeteria, and our dorm building; then we can meet at our dorm at 4; introduce him to Niff; and by the time the first one's done, it'll be about time for dinner. We can just go to the cafeteria, and introduce him to any Warblers who are still here. Then we can go back, and stay up forever." Wes suggested.
This sounded like a solid plan, so I agreed to this. "Sounds perfect. So, we'll meet you guys and Niff in your dorm at 4."
They left to inform Niff of the plan, and I went back to listening (in a non-creepy way) to Kurt sing. By this point, he was on a song that was well outside his normal Broadway or Lady Gaga piece. The Only Exception by Paramore was a slower song, and listening to him sing it, I felt my stomach twinge. Who was he singing this about? Had he found a new boyfriend? Was he crushing on Finn again?aa
After a minute, I banished those thoughts from my head. First, it didn't matter to me if he was singing to anyone, and second, he didn't have to have someone in mind. He might be singing the song just because he liked it, for all I knew. Sighing, I settled down on my bed with my copy of The Prisoner of Azkaban, all the while listening to Kurt sing on speakerphone.
After about an hour or so of this, it was nearing 3, so reluctantly I terminated the call, and hurried outside. Not five minutes later, Kurt's car pulled into Dalton's parking lot. I hurried towards his car, and hugged Kurt the moment he stepped out of his car. For the first time, he didn't tense when I touched him, and instead hugged me back tightly.
Finally, he leaned back, breaking the embrace, and smiled at me. "How are you?" he asked.
"Good. You?" I returned the question.
He smiled. "I am now."
I looked into his car, and saw his suitcase (why he needed a full suitcase and not just a bag for an overnight was beyond me) sitting in the backseat. "May I?" I asked.
"Oh, you don't have to." Kurt tried to wave me off.
"No, I insist." I told him, and grabbed the suitcase. It felt suspiciously heavy. "Kurt..."
"Yeah?" he asked.
"What's in here?" I asked, smiling.
"Umm," Kurt thought for a second, "three outfits, an extra pair of shoes, pajamas, my toothbrush, and my cosmetics."
I shook my head playfully, rolling my eyes. "And why do you need all of that stuff?"
"Because if I skip a day or night of my skin care regimen, then my skin will get dry or oily, and break out, and look nasty." Kurt told me straightly.
I laughed. "I don't think you have to worry about that at all."
Kurt blushed at this, and I went on, "So, let's drop this stuff in my dorm, then I'll give you a short tour."
Kurt nodded and followed me into my dorm building. "So, are we doing this in your dorm? Who's watching with us?"
"We're doing it in David and Wes' room, but I figured if you wanted to change or anything, you could do it in my room, as Trent's gone for the weekend. And David, Wes, and Niff are gonna be there. We can introduce you to any other Warbler's around during dinner, if that's okay with you." I checked.
Kurt gulped slightly, then nodded.
"Don't worry, they're nothing like the guys at McKinley." I assured him.
He gave me a grateful smile, and nodded, but, "I know" was all he said.
We reached my dorm after a minute or two, and I felt a sudden wave of self-consciousness as Kurt studied my room from the doorway.
"You can come in, you know." I told him nervously.
He stepped in, looking around my room with wide eyes. "It's very nice." he told me.
His words send a rush of relief through me. "Really?" I asked.
"Really." he confirmed, nodding. He walked over to my bookshelf, looking at my books.
"Harry Potter?" he asked.
I nodded, smiling like a dork. "He's the man!"
Kurt laughed, and nodded his head at this. "Has anyone ever told you you are a nerd?" he inquired.
"Yes." I replied immediately. "All the time. David and Wes rarely let five minutes go before they call me a nerd or geek again."
Smiling at this, Kurt ran his fingers over the spines of my books, then turned back to me. "Tour?" he asked.
"Tour." I affirmed.
Fifty minutes later, Kurt had seem the Warbler's room, the library, where the cafeteria was, where the different dorm rooms were situated, and knew which of my friends lived in which dorm.
As we were heading to Wes and David's dorm, we passed Niff's dorm, and I thought I heard a muffled thump.
Knocking on the door, I called out, "Hey, guys?"
"Who's there?" Nick asked.
"Me, Blaine."
"What's up, Blainers?" Jeff's voice chimed in.
Kurt looked amused, though wide-eyed. It hit me, Kurt had probably never seen two gay guys who were dating before. Well, this would be fun.
"Kurt's here." I told them. "So tidy yourselves up, and meet us in Wevid's dorm pronto."
"Will do, Blainers." Nick said through the door, and I turned to Kurt.
He raised an eyebrow at me. "Blainers?" he asked, trying to hide a smile.
"Hey! My friends are all idiots!" I defended myself.
"So, is that a common occurrence?" Kurt asked as we headed towards Wes and David's dorm.
"What? Finding them canoodling in their room? All the time." I told him.
He nodded slowly, but before he could say anything, we were in front of their dorm.
"You ready?" I asked Kurt.
He took a deep breath, let it out slowly, and smiled at me, nodding. "Yeah. I am."
The next moment, the door was slammed open, and Kurt jumped about a foot in shock. Me, being used to it, only glared at David for his dramatics.
"David..." Wes reprimanded his best friend.
David, ignoring Wes, bounded up to Kurt, pulling the boy into a tight hug. Kurt, frozen, looked at me helplessly.
"David, let Kurt breathe." I chastised David.
"Oh, yeah." David pulled back, not looking guilty in the slightest.
"Hi Kurt. I apologize for this goofball." Wes walked up to Kurt, holding out his hand.
Kurt hastened to shake it, and laughed a little. "It's no problem...just...a surprise." he said.
"Please forgive David, he's a little...enthusiastic." Wes added.
"What? I was glad to see Kurt again, especially after learning what an amazing voice he has!" David defended himself.
"Can we come in?" I asked, trying to subtly remind them that we were all standing in the hall.
"Oh, yes, come in!" Wes told us, hastening us in.
"So, how was your drive?" David asked Kurt, grinning at me evilly.
"Fine. Long, but I'm used to it by now." Kurt replied.
"Did you sing at all?" David continued, ignoring my warning glares.
"Umm, yeah...why do you ask?" Kurt asked, catching my glare at David.
"No reason." David said airily. Kurt glanced at me, confused, and I just shook my head, hoping he would forget about it. Thankfully he did, as Niff entered the room.
"Hi Kurt!" they tag-teamed Kurt, sweeping him up in a big hug.
"Hi?" Kurt half-asked, looking at me questioningly over their heads.
I smirked at Kurt. "That's kind of how they are." I told him.
Kurt nodded, and Niff finally let Kurt go.
"So this is the famous Kurt Hummel." Nick said, looking Kurt over.
"Beautiful countertenor." Jeff added.
"Amazing fashionista." Nick continued.
"And endearing spy." Jeff ended.
Kurt looked a little startled at this, and once again, looked to me for directions. I shrugged, trying to say, 'Shall we?' Kurt seemed to get it, as he smiled as he looked at the two.
"And you must be Nick and Jeff. But which one's which?"
"I'm Jeff." Jeff said.
"I'm Nick." Nick said.
Now, Kurt looked them over, eyes twinkling. "So this is the famous Niff." he commented, looking at them, then at me.
I realized what he was doing a second later. "Adorable couple."
"Oblivious friends who are madly in love with each other." Kurt added.
"Lovely singers." I continued.
"And sickeningly adorable." Kurt finished.
Nick and Jeff stared at Kurt, then turned to me. "We like him." Nick told me.
"Can we keep him?" Jeff asked, wide-eyed.
I laughed as Kurt spluttered. "Nope, sorry guys, his Lima friends would probably freak out if we kept him. But points for thought."
"Darn it." Jeff pouted.
"Anyway, how about we begin?" Wes proposed.
"Sure." Kurt agreed.
We settled down on David and Wes' beds, and I slid in Mulan first. As it came on, Nick and Jeff started cuddling, twisting their bodies so they were very close together, limbs tangled. David and Wes seemed to inch unconsciously towards each other. I put my arm Kurt, and after a moment, he relaxed into my side. It felt right to have Kurt there, by my side, and I marveled at how much I valued his friendship. Kurt really was an amazing person, and I was lucky to be able to call him a friend.
An hour and a half later, Mulan ended, and we all sat up. It took Nick and Jeff a minute or two to untangle themselves from each other while we looked on and snickered. Kurt looked at them almost wistfully, and I knew he was wishing he had a boyfriend, someone who would protect him, because I was wishing the exact same thing.
Kurt sighed. "That is such an amazing movie."
Nick agreed with this. "And the captain? Sooo hot."
Jeff looked jealous for a second, then it disappeared. "That is true." he admitted.
Nick seemed to be struck with an idea. He motioned his boyfriend over, and whispered something in Jeff's ear. Jeff's eyes darkened slightly, and he nodded.
"Moving on from the adorableness of Niff," Wes started, "who's up to dinner?"
David, Nick, Jeff, and I all raised our hands. "Dinner it is." Wes said.
I grabbed Kurt's hand. "Yay! Now you can meet the other Warblers!"
Kurt smiled nervously at me, and bit his lip.
A/N: You really just have to love Niff and Wevid! And I agree with Jeff—I would like to keep Kurt! Again, I couldn't help myself, I love it when Blaine and/or other Warblers spy on Kurt! They should really appreciate his talent, but in the show, they don't as much...I'll have to think of a reason for that...any suggestions? Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and please please please review and make my day! Thanks so much! =D
