The only thing about planning a spontaneous and romantic date was that Blaine didn't think of the consequences. When he arrived at school, he was beaming. He had a date with Kurt, he got him home on time too, and even though Burt questioned why they were completely drenched, he was impressed that Blaine got Kurt home right on 10:30.
"I'm not even going to ask because from your wide smiles I gather you had a good time," Burt had commented when he opened the door. Kurt was giggling and Blaine rolled his eyes fondly.
He kissed Kurt's cheek as a goodnight gesture considering his father was in the room and then said he'd see him at school the next day.
He was still waiting in the lobby and Kurt hadn't showed up yet. Did he stop by the Lima Bean? He wondered. Oh god, not this again.
Frantic he looked around for a familiar face amongst the many blazers roaming the halls. "Wes!" He called out when spotting his friend heading to the study room. "Have you seen Kurt?"
Wes frowned. "Didn't you see the post on Facebook this morning?"
Blaine looked confused. Typical, Wes thought and shook his head as he got out his mobile device to show Blaine.
Rachel had asked if Kurt wanted some of her home made chicken soup considering he had a cold it was the best cure.
"I've got to go,"
"Blaine class starts in 10 minutes!"
Blaine looked like he didn't care as he pulled his satchel more firmly over his shoulder and looked in his bag for his phone.
"You're going to get in trouble," Wes looked at him sternly. "Now Kurt's fine Blaine, he's sick, he's not dying, you can go at lunch, we have 2 free periods after,"
"Fine," Blaine hated it when Wes thought things through logically. Sometimes he just wished he could be more of a rebel. He wanted to see Kurt.
"Oh no, don't use that look on me, it doesn't work," Wes clapped his shoulder and Blaine huffed as he followed the other boy to the classroom. He called Kurt on the way once he retrieved his mobile from his bag.
"Hello?" Kurt didn't sound good. Blaine smiled sadly. "Hey….I um….I saw you weren't feeling well,"
"Who told you?" Kurt coughed and Blaine winced at the sound. "I saw Rachel's post,"
"Of course, I didn't want you to see me like this" Kurt sounded miserable and Blaine wanted nothing more than to be there.
"Why?" That was just ridiculous. Wes was giving him a concerned look.
Blaine just mouthed 'Hang on'.
David joined them when they were in the study room. They always met up before class there and walked together.
Nick and Jeff were already there and so was Dom. They stood up as Blaine arrived and silently they all walked to class, giving Blaine privacy to his phonecall.
"Because I look terrible,"
Blaine laughed and Kurt made an annoyed sound "It's not funny Blaine,"
"Sorry…but Kurt, I''ve seen you sick before, remember that time you came to school with a fever?"
"Yeah I fainted, it wasn't pretty,"
"Kurt… it's very hard to look pretty when sick, you on the other hand are the exception," Blaine knew it was cheesy, but it was true. He remembered that time Kurt got sick and was so out of it that he rested on Blaine's arm in class. Blaine had found it endearing, and he even attempted to dress nice despite the fact he was ill.
Dom made a loud "Awww HOW SWEET,"
"How was the date?" Nick asked aloud and Blaine blushed. "GUYS,"
"Oh you didn't ask him?" Nick looked confused and Kurt chuckled in the background but it lead to a strangled coughing noise. "We had a date last night, it was …amazing, wasn't it Kurt," Blaine confirmed, Kurt agreed and then he asked if Kurt was okay when he began coughing again. "I knew that canoeing was a bad idea,"
"If I remember correctly….you rather enjoyed a particular part of that canoeing,"
Blaine grinned. Wes was eyeing him carefully, and David nudged Jeff who was trying not to laugh.
"I'm on loud speaker aren't I?"
"Yes," All boys answered and Kurt groaned. "Great…"
"Kurt…we hope you get better man," David added and Blaine looked at him greatfully.
"Boys, would you like to attend class? Or should I ask the principal as to why my class has disappeared,"
"Sorry Miss,"
"Sorry!"
"BYE KURT,"
"SEE YOU SOON,"
"Blaine come on man,"
The others went inside and Blaine told his teacher he'd be in a minute.
"I got to go Kurt…take care of yourself okay? I'll talk to you later,"
"Blaine wait…"
"Blaine!" The teacher called.
"Sorry, I'll call on the way to next period okay, bye,"
He heard Kurt say goodbye but he could tell the boy wasn't happy that he didn't get to ask what he wanted.
He put his phone in his pocket on silent but not completely off so he could text If needed and headed to his usual seat in the corner with Wes and David.
"Alright class today were going to be learning about Virgnia Woolf and Silvia Plath would you please get out your readings I have sent you through email over the weekend…"
Blaine's thought drifted off to the boy he went out with the night before.
When they got out of the water.. they had been soaked but Kurt was laughing. More than he ever heard him laugh before. "I can't believe we did that," He was so giddy Blaine couldn't help but pull him in for another kiss.
"I can't get enough of that," Kurt added dreamily as Blaine nodded. "Good, because expect it often,"
They kissed again. Warm breathes and soft lips, no tongue, thank god because Kurt felt already like he was dying from the way Blaine's mouth moved with his so perfectly.
The teacher excused herself when a student knocked on the door, and Blaine took the chance to look at his phone for any messages from Kurt.
Would you go out with me again? I really really enjoyed our date Blaine…
Blaine's heart skipped a beat. He forgot to ask Kurt last night! He hoped Kurt wasn't feeling insecure about his actions…
Then another message came through
When I don't sound like a suffering cat of course…
Blaine laughed and his classmates looked at him and he muttered an apology.
He wasn't able to send a reply thought because the teacher came in.
He couldn't wait for lunch.
…..
When he arrived at the Hummels house 5 minutes before his actual lunchbreak started, as he had lied to his teacher and said he needed to use the bathroom. He had ignored the look David and Wes had been sending him as he particularly ran out of the building.
He got in his car and drove to Lima as fast as he could.
When he arrived Burt opened the door in surprise.
"Aren't you supposed to be In school?"
Blaine looked embarrassed. "I have a lunchbreak sir…I wanted to see if Kurt was okay,"
Burt rolled his eyes and opened the door wider. "Go on down, he's watching Disney movies with Mercedes,"
"Mercedes is here?" Blaine wasn't sure if he should be relieved or jealous, he decided both.
"She skipped school, you don't tell, I won't tell the school on you either,"
Blaine looked like a victim being caught. "I swear sir, it really is my lunchbreak,"
"That's what she told me, and that was 3 hours ago,"
Blaine nodded "I won't tell,"
"Go on then, you're only young once,"
Blaine thanked Burt and thought to himself, he's the greatest dad ever and headed down to Kurt's room in the basement. Mercedes was indeed there, and they were giggling. He took his time not wanting Kurt to see him first.
"I don't know if this is real or not Cedes, I still can't quite see him liking me that way, it's just surreal,"
Blaine's heart ached at that. Did he miss something? Why would Kurt think that..
"You actually kissed him?"
Mercedes asked and Blaine halted smiling to himself. They looked so cute. Both in their pajamas, and Blaine had a sneaky suspicion Mercedes brought them over in her backpack that was on the floor. They had a bowl of chicken soup which was labelled Rachel's Soup on the bed and Beauty and the Beast was playing in the background.
"Yeah…and Mercedes it wasn't like anything I imagined…it was so much more…he…he's perfect, it was perfect,"
Mercedes was giggling so much that Blaine decided this was a good time to enter.
"I think you give me far too much credit Kurt, I've been pretty clueless this year,"
"Blaine!" Kurt said excitedly and Blaine watched his face lit up as he looked to him standing in his room, he insisted Kurt stay under the covers when he was about to get out of bed.
Mercedes appeared stunned to see him and smiled widely. "Well hello Blaine Warbler, what are you doing here?"
"I was dropping by to see how Kurt Is; Mercedes, how are you?"
"Very good, especially knowing your treating my boy well,"
"Well…I try,"
Kurt started coughing and immediately Blaine moved to his side. "Hey…take it easy,"
He put his hand on Kurt's and brought it up to his lips to give it a soft kiss. Kurt flushed.
"Oh and to answer your question, of course I'll go out with you again, I'm sorry I had meant to ask you last night," He squeezed Kurt's hand and Kurt squeezed back.
"So it's not just because you felt sorry for me then, because of what happened?" Mercedes excused herself for a moment saying she needed to go to the bathroom.
"No, of course not…Kurt when I could talk or see you… it was the worst week of my life, and that argument didn't make me feel good at all, especially when Rachel kissed me on the day you went missing, I ...I knew I was gay, you want to know why?"
Kurt looked a little nervous but nodded.
"All I could see was you… I pretended I was kissing you…and I remember saying I'm gay, I'm 100 % gay, and I told Rachel and she claimed she could use it for her songwriting, she didn't even seem upset,"
Kurt scoffed "That sounds like her,"
"Yeah actually she seemed pretty happy about it, and then I was going to talk to you about it but I never got the chance…Kurt…I'm really really sorry of how oblivious I've been,"
"It's okay," Kurt insisted and Blaine shook his head. "No it's not…if I had only talked to you that Friday instead of waiting the whole weekand for you to come around I…"
"Blaine stop it. I'm fine, we're fine, no more blaming yourself, I could have called you too remember? It's not your fault, besides your ruining the mood,"
Blaine nodded "Okay…"
Mercedes came back in then and smiled at Blaine. "Shouldn't you be at school? Wes made a comment on your Facebook,"
He checked his phone.
Blaine, get your ass back to Dalton ASAP Mr Jones is giving a surprise test, I heard him speaking to one of the teachers .
Blaine groaned and sighed. "I got to go," He hugged Mercedes when she thanked him for what they did with looking for Kurt and then he hugged Kurt.
"Oh before I forget," He handed Kurt a card and kissed his cheek and then a peck on his lips. Kurt sighed happily when he parted and said goodbye "Don't open it till I leave!" He called when seeing Kurt looking at the envelope.
He said goodbye to Burt and got in his car to head to school. He got a beep from his phone.
I miss you already. -K
I miss you too, Get better soon xx – B
Kurt smiled at the text and opened the letter when Mercedes insisted he open it.
He gasped.
It was his drawing of Kurt + Blaine in the red love heart stuck on a card.
He opened it and inside was tickets to see a musical and then Blaine's handwriting.
Dear Kurt
You move me… the way you stand so tall and proud is so admirable
You're beautiful you know? The way you style your hair, your clothes…your witty personality but the fact that you are also so compassionate , I'm so proud to know you
I'm sorry I never told you these things before
I'm sorry I've been such an idiot not to see these things before
I would love to make up for it
Please,
Will you be my boyfriend?
Hope you get well soon…. – Blaine (possible future bf)
Mercedes squealed when she read the card and Kurt was smiling from ear to ear as he sent a text.
Do you know the ending of When Harry met Sally? –K
I'll confess…I watched it a week after I asked what happens at the end…
Then you know your answer xxx – K
