PROMPT: Insomniac-Angel -For an idea...how about a little before Kurt transfers back to McKinley, the Warblers get an invitation to participate in a choir competition for charity (like, the winners get to pick which charity the proceeds go to). They decide they want Kurt to do another duet for their competition piece...but think ANOTHER Warbler's voice would sound better on the song than Blaine's (maybe it's something really classical or is very vocally challenging and Blaine just doesn't have the vocal range for it). Anyway, Kurt's duet partner is a tall, handsome, jockish guy who's making no secret of the fact that he's interested in Kurt. Kurt's oblivious, but Blaine is well aware that the guy looks a LOT more like the guys Kurt's crushed on in the past (ie, Sam and Finn) than Blaine does. Their relationship is still new enough that Blaine gets really insecure and starts being ridiculous about Kurt being alone with his new duet partner.
The thing I like about this prompt is it kind of writes itself :) Enjoy guys and remember to prompt ^.^
Wes sighed in frustration as he banged the gavel on the table once again. "Warblers! Please!"
Everyone finally calmed down, looking up at the Warblers table. "Thank you. Now, we need to discuss a few things."
"Like what charity we're going to give the money we make to and who will be singing the main song." David added.
Wes nodded, "And we were thinking that Kurt could have the solo."
Kurt's eyes widened as he smiled over at his new boyfriend. Blaine looked up at the council, but all of them were avoiding his eyes. Weird, Blaine thought as he smiled back over at Kurt.
"And we were thinking, he could have a duet partner." David said, Blaine started to stand up, but sat back down as Thad said, "With Luke on the Celine Dion song My Heart Will Go On."
Kurt let out a squeak of surprise and looked over at Blaine with wide eyes. Blaine was glaring at Wes, David and Thad, his face screwed up in an expression Kurt had never seen. This was bad. This was very bad.
Because Luke made it no secret he wanted Kurt, and Kurt was Blaine's boyfriend.
Sure, Kurt and Blaine had only been dating for two weeks, but everyone knew it. They never spent a minute apart. Kurt looked over at Blaine again and saw his head down and eyes closed and sighed. He would have to talk to Wes and David about this.
He turned his head to look over at Luke who winked at him. He sighed and stood up, walking over to sit by Blaine. He reached over, giving Blaine's hand a reassuring squeeze and smiled at him before turning back to the council.
The rest of practice passed by quickly, and everyone sighed in relief as the council told them that they could leave. Kurt stayed behind, telling Blaine he could stay too if he wanted.
"Is something wrong, Kurt?" David asked, eyeing the boy in question.
Kurt held onto Blaine's hand tightly, "You all know exactly what's wrong! Luke has some little crush on me, and even if you didn't choose Blaine to sing with me, why him?" He asked, looking agitated.
"Because honestly Kurt, he's the only one who can keep up with you vocally on a song like this." Wes sighed. "I know you and Blaine are together, but if you really like each other, then he will trust you."
"I trust him." Blaine said in a small voice.
"This is me coming to you Wes, I don't want to sing with him."
"Sorry to interrupt," They all turned, eyes widening as Luke walked in. "But I forgot my bag and couldn't help but overhearing."
"Oh, I didn't mean -" Kurt started.
"I know what you meant Kurt." Luke smiled quickly, then sighed. "This is for charity though, and if you agree to sing with me, I promise to be good."
Blaine watched Kurt hesitantly nod and aim a small smile at the boy. He trusted Kurt. He did. He just didn't trust Luke.
Blaine headed away from his english classroom with a small smile on his face. Mrs Donaldson had kept him behind after class - the last class of the day - to discuss the most recent essay he had handed in. Blaine had immediately been worried as he didn't think it was one of his best essays (he had written it with Kurt there, which was a rather large distraction) but as it turned out, she had wanted to congratulate him. Apparently it had been a 'splendid, well structured' essay. This had surprised him to no end, but it had certainly improved his mood.
The corridors weren't busy as he was so late out, so he could walk down them without having to dodge a mass of people. His locker was quite far away from his last class, so he had time to think to himself. He hummed quietly as he passed the familiar choir room door.
He grinded to a halt as he heard an uplifting laugh coming from inside. Who was that? Warblers practice wasn't on today.
Luckily, the door was slightly ajar and he could peer inside the room quite easily. What he saw brought a wave of jealousy upon him.
Kurt was standing next to the piano, back to him but Blaine could tell that it was him laughing loudly. He knew that laugh as well as his own. Sitting on the piano chair beside him was Luke, his large brown eyes, feigning innocence, peering up at Kurt through thick eyelashes. Blaine knew that look anywhere - embarrassingly, it was one he used on Kurt all the time.
He restrained the urge to slam the door open and storm in, because that would do nothing to help the situation. He knew Kurt had been practicing with Luke ever since it had been decided that they would sing together a week ago, but whenever he brought up his suspicions to Kurt about the conniving boy they had been shot down. He had charmed his way into Kurt's heart and now Kurt thought of him somewhat as a friend.
He could hear a snippet of a few sentences from inside the room, mostly from Luke, and he was definitely flirting.
Then he saw Luke turn to the piano, fingers performing a careful dance over the keys. Kurt's voice rose out, voice and piano melting together to form one flawless sound.
Damn, he had never heard Kurt sing that well before. And that was really saying something, since they sang together all the time.
He stood stock still, frozen in place. It wasn't like he could do anything. He couldn't risk upsetting Kurt, which he knew would happen if he just burst in and started accusing Luke of flirting.
So he stood there and listened to the whole song, feeling close to crying. He really shoudn't be this jealous - it was his dorm Kurt would be visiting after this to cuddle with him. But as Luke's voice joined Kurt's on the chorus, sounding almost (almost, not quite) as good as Kurt's, he couldn't take it.
He stormed away from the door, features set in a grimace. He didn't know what to do.
"Blaine, will you just tell me what's going on? You've been really distant lately."
Blaine was lying on his bed reading a book while Kurt did his essay on the far side of the room at his desk.
"Nothing." Blaine mumbled petulantly, raising his book higher so that he didn't have to see Kurt's disappointed stare. His boyfriend had been spending a greater amount of time with Luke from when he witnessed their rehearsal. More time with Luke meant less time with him and more reason to be suspicious.
He knew that he was being stupid. But he didn't care enough to stop.
"If you're not going to tell me, then I can't fix this!" Kurt's voice was raised, shocking Blaine slightly. He had never spoken to him like that before.
"It's nothing, okay? Just leave it, Kurt!" He threw the book to the end of the bed, glaring at Kurt with vehemence.
"Fine. I'll see you tomorrow, Blaine." Blaine watched in horror as Kurt collected his stuff and stormed out of his dorm, slamming the door behind him.
Fantastic.
Blaine sighed, frustrated, as all the Warblers, including Kurt came in and Kurt sat all the way across the room from him. Although Kurt didn't look mad, the fact that he sat so far away worried Blaine. He took a seat, not wanting to stand and be a part of anything today.
Wes noticed him sit, and looked over at David and they both frowned, starting practice anyways.
"Warblers," Wes said in his 'listen' voice, "We would like Kurt and Luke to please come up and sing their duet for us today. You all have been practicing, haven't you?"
Both boys nodded as they made their ways to the front of the room.
Kurt took a big gulp of breath as the music started. He could do this. He could fix this between him and Blaine. He had to.
Ignoring the way Luke was staring at him, Kurt turned to Blaine and sang along, forgetting completely that Luke was even singing with him.
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you, go on
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you, go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're gone
Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold you
In my life we'll always go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
By the end of the song, Blaine and Kurt were both in tears. Kurt had just sang an entire song to his boyfriend. In front of the Warblers.
Kurt smiled softly at him, hoping it conveyed how sorry he was. It took him a while, but after running into Jon in the hallway and finding out Blaine had heard him and Luke singing together, Kurt knew why Blaine was angry.
"I'm sorry." Kurt mouthed to Blaine, hoping Blaine would forgive him. He smiled at Kurt in return, making Kurt let out a breath he didn't know he was holding, and going back over to his seat.
"That was fantastic Kurt, but did you forget you had a duet partner?" Wes scolded.
Kurt shrugged, and smiled as he saw Blaine stand up. "Warblers, Council if its okay with you, I have a song I would like to sing to my boyfriend to apologize?"
David gestured for him to move to the front of the room and looked right at Kurt. "I'm sorry Kurt, and I know this is crazy, as we've only been dating a few weeks, but I was terrified I would lose you."
As the music started, Kurt's breath caught. He knew this song.
I was dreaming of the past,
And my heart was beating fast.
I began to lose control,
I began to lose control.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
I'm sorry that I made you cry.
Oh no, I didn't mean to hurt you.
I'm just a jealous guy.
I was feeling insecure you might not love me anymore.
I was shivering inside,
I was shivering inside.
I didn't mean...
I was trying to catch your eyes,
though that you was trying to hide.
I was swallowing my pain,
I was swallowing my pain.
I didn't mean...
As the song came to a close, Kurt smiled at Blaine and in that instant Blaine knew. They would be okay.
The songs used in this chapter are Celine Dion's "My heart will Go on" and John Lennon's "Jealous Guy". :) Hope you all enjoyed it and remember to review and PROMPT!:D
