Kurt made his way from Silk to the Metro and to his apartment in something akin to a daze. He was aware enough of himself and his surroundings to not end up in any trouble, but his mind was consumed and distracted by the events of the night. If you had told him 2 years ago that he would end up in a club not only dancing with, but kissing Sebastian Smythe, he would have verbally ripped you to shreds and questioned your sanity... Truth it would seem, was stranger than fiction.
The dancing, hell... Dancing with Blaine had never felt like that. Sure, maybe it was the difference of Kurt being slightly shorter than Sebastian and so he was essentially in the more Blaine role of dancing... But if that was even anything like what Blaine had felt when they'd danced so long ago - Gaga he must have had a really hard time keeping his hands off of Kurt. Most of the times they'd gone dancing there had been some reason why they couldn't necessarily be intimate right after.
He really needed to get his mind out of the gutter. Yet it seemed intent on staying there - even as he made his way into his apartment, locked the door behind himself and made his way to his room to strip off the clothes that smelled of bar and get a much needed shower so he could crawl into bed and get almost enough sleep to be conscious for class in the morning.
That was the one major drawback to Silk's karaoke night being on Thursday evening. Kurt was just thankful that he didn't have an early morning class on Friday. He didn't have to be up until 9 so if he hurried with his shower and moisturizing he'd get around six hours of sleep - he'd functioned on much less before so he'd be fine. So long as he got to sleep not long after finishing his shower he'd be more than just fine.
He kicked off his shoes by the door and then slipped into his bedroom and peeled off the skinny jeans and got rid of his shirt. By the time he made his way into his bathroom, he was sans apparel and god did it feel good. Once upon a time he might have been self conscious - even when alone, but he'd finally become at home in his skin. After hours of dancing in skin tight jeans, he was glad to be free of the constrictive material.
He turned the water on to almost too hot and stepped in, letting the water ease some of the soreness from his body. He quickly washed his hair and conditioned it and then washed himself. He'd been trying to keep his mind from wandering back to the club but then he remembered the faint taste of alcohol mingled with the intoxicating flavor of male and his breath hitched just slightly. Then of course his mind had to be doubly cruel and replay the sensation of lips and tongue pressing against the pulse in his throat.
Kurt's hands braced themselves on the shower wall in front of him, water raining down his back as everything that had been kept distant in a warm fuzzy haze of dance and almost dreaminess came crashing back to the front of his mind. The way it felt to be pressed so close to another man again... The slightly heady aroma of what Kurt was sure had to be Dolce & Gabbana L'Amoreaux cologne mixed with the natural scent of Sebastian. The imagery pulled a frustrated groan from Kurt's lips as one hand moved and turned the hot water practically off. He let the cold water ease the other sort of tension from his body and let his forehead thunk against the shower tile.
When he felt calmer and more in control of himself he shut the water off all together and got out of the shower and dried off, donning a pair of silk boxers and falling into bed. He rolled over to set his alarm and turn off the light and laid there trying to think of anything but what had occurred in the club tonight because if he got all hot and bothered again, he was going to have to do something about it and he really didn't want to be doing that with thoughts of his dance partner on his mind just yet. They were friends, that was all, there was no need to be having awkward sexy thoughts about his friend.
Sebastian on the other hand had no such reservations. When he'd finally gotten home from the club, he'd kicked off his shoes, stripped on his way to the master bath and proceeded to relieve tensions of more than one kind under the hot spray of the shower. He let the images and memories come back and wash over him. He let himself get lost in the moments again and again. He'd never been ashamed of his desires and he wasn't about to start now.
He washed up and by the time he'd left the shower the water was just starting to get cool. He dried off and moved over to set his alarm and then fell into bed. Oh the delicious dreams that followed. Things playing out embellished slightly from how they'd truly happened. Scenes of things that could have happened if. So many possibilities. They did not disturb his rest but they'd certainly made it interesting. Of course it wasn't like this was the first time he'd had those kinds of dreams. And maybe it wasn't the first time he'd had one of those kinds of dreams featuring one Kurt Hummel. It didn't matter who was or wasn't in his more interesting dreams. So long as it was a good sex dream, Sebastian never minded them.
Morning comes and both stumble through their usual morning routines, blissfully unaware of their shared plight. Kurt goes through his closet, picking a pair of casual black jeans and a dark blue t-shirt before donning his black cross trainers and grabbing his things before heading to a local coffee shop for caffeine and a bagel and then heading to class. Sebastian dons something a little more polished since he has a meeting with one of his advisors around lunch. Dress slacks, white button down shirt, dress shoes and grabs his things and heads to his own classes.
Around lunch time, while Kurt is in the sewing room at Parson's finishing up an assignment, his phone buzzes to let him know he has a text message. He pauses in what he's working on and pulls out his phone.
~ Sorry about not going out last night. Trio is headed to usual cafe for lunch - join us? ~ Kurt smiles at Lizzie's text.
~ Sure be there in about ten.~ He sends back before finishing up what he was doing, packing away his things and heading to the cafe. Fifteen minutes later, Kurt was joining his friends at their table. When a waitress passes by, he orders his usual panini and an iced mocha.
"So Kurt, were there any hotties out last night?" Lizzie inquires with a giggle.
"Is that seriously the first question you're going to ask me?" Kurt says with a scoff and an eye roll.
"Sorry." She says, looking genuinely sheepish. "Did you have fun last night, Kurt?"
"Yes, it was an... interesting night."
"Ooooh, interesting? Sounds like there was definitely a hottie then." Lizzie teases with a laugh.
Kurt couldn't help but chuckle at that. "Well, Silk is usually filled with beautiful people."
"So, did you get to dance with any of the beautiful people, Kurt?" Samantha inquires.
Kurt ponders how best to word things, then gets the slightest smirk on his lips. "Technically, I suppose you could say I did." He says in a teasing tone.
"Technically? What do you mean technically?" Kyle asks.
"Well, it was karaoke night and while they do try to still have dance music interspersed with the singing -"
Lizzie cuts off Kurt's words. "Still not explaining the technically!"
Kurt laughs at her eagerness outright then, but he does finally relent in his teasing. "Sebastian was there, so technically - person not people." The other three at the table all exchange looks, they hadn't formally met Sebastian yet, but they had seen Kurt talking to him at that party so they all knew that Sebastian was certainly easy on the eyes.
"So, dancing... how much dancing did you and Sebastian do? And was there anything other than dancing going on between you two?" Kyle teases.
Kurt rolls his eyes. "Yes, dancing. Well we sang a duet... but just two friends, dancing."
Samantha levels a skeptical look at Kurt. Of his three friends, Sam is always the harder one to fool. He thinks it might have something to do with her being Native American but he can't be sure... it might just be all Sam. He does his best to boredly hold the gaze of one Samantha 'Moon Dancer' Chayton knowing that if he does anything less, she'll be all over him about it until he relents and gives up every last secret. She has that way about her. It might not be here in front of Lizzie and Kyle, but she will do it.
She regards him carefully, her dark brown eyes unrelenting. Finally she gives him a look that says they will talk about this later and breaks eye contact. Kurt cannot help but sigh mentally at that. He really didn't want to go through being interrogated by Sam. Thankfully the tension is broken by Lizzie's more bouncy direct questioning.
"So what did you sing?" Lizzie inquires.
"I personally sang Not the Boy Next Door. Sebastian sang Undisclosed Desires. I know he was in the Warblers and I do remember him having lead at one Regional's competition, but I have to say I was surprised by how well his voice took to the song. Of course there were some people who selected to do karaoke that really shouldn't have." Kurt explains.
"I think what Liz wanted to know was what song did you and Sebastian do as a duet." Kyle points out.
"If I Never See Your Face Again as done by Maroon Five and Rihanna." Kurt says, looking down ever so slightly because he knows that it's flirty and practically a dead give away to the more than friendly air that had been wending around he and Sebastian most of Thursday night. Kyle is chuckling as quietly as he can, Lizzie is bouncing in her seat and Sam just has this look of 'yeah I thought so' on her face.
"Kurt, that is a very flirtatious song... and you want us to believe that there was nothing more than friendly going on between you and Sebastian?" Samantha says with a very skeptical yet teasing tone. Kurt attempts to refrain from answering for at least a few moments by choosing that particular one to continue eating his portabella and chicken panini with balsamic vegetables.
Lizzie giggles. "Maybe Kurt doesn't want to kiss and tell."
"Was there kissing Kurt? You can just nod your head yes or no." Kyle teases. Kurt just levels a bitch please glare at all of them.
"Fine, fine we'll let it go - for now. But I do remember what Sebastian looks like Kurt, and you don't go to NYU, I could just seek out Sebastian and get answers from him." Sam says with a dangerous grin on her lips.
Mentally, Kurt might panic just a little about that. She very well could, if she remembers that Sebastian is at NYU for law, that would even narrow things down for her. He can only hope she won't because if she does, unless Kurt manages to convince Sebastian to not tell her anything, she's going to find out. He was sorely tempted to get out his phone and send a text to warn Sebastian about the psycho Lakota girl he called friend, but if he did that in front of them the jig would totally be up. Dammit.
"Forgive me for not wanting to talk about things in so public a forum... and there are a lot of other factors involved here. I know you are my dear friends, but I should be allowed to keep things to myself until I'm ready to discuss them at length and in detail. If anyone deserves that conversation first it would be Sebastian, so until I have the opportunity to discuss the events that took place last night with him I can't tell you guys anything. Besides, wouldn't you rather wait for the whole story?" Kurt says in a tone that was trying to be neutral but was beginning to show his annoyance.
"Events... were there... events that we need to be concerned with?" Kyle inquires, leveling a very amused and curious look on Kurt.
Kurt rolls his eyes. "Gaga no. What do you take me for? I don't do stuff like that right off the bat, and please don't try to say I've known Sebastian for years. It wouldn't matter if I have or not, I do not jump into bed with anyone that fast. It took months of me dating Blaine before our relationship progressed to that point. Sebastian and I may have become friends but we are by no means close enough to be getting intimate with one another."
Kyle puts his hands up to show he's going to back off. The girls look to Kurt then each other and finally both sigh and shrug. "Alright Kurt, you talk to Sebastian and figure out whatever it is needs be figured out but when you get things sorted you're telling us - capice?" Lizzie states firmly.
"Yes, yes, I get it. Okay? As soon as there is information worth sharing I will share it. Preferably in the privacy of my apartment over movies and popcorn and not out in public though." Kurt says with a sigh.
"Deal." The Trio agrees at the same time.
They finish their lunch and go back to their respective schools. Kurt has some more work to finish up before he can be satisfied that all he'll have to worry about on the weekend are the usual household chores and errands.
