Goes with Chapter 13 of my story Letters to You.
Sorry if this is a little, well rubbish. I've not been well and Well. I kinda liked parts of this chapter but I don't know if it flows right. I'm not sure if its rubbish or absolute crap. :L

31st December 2010.
The two had spent most of the morning down in the garage talking about Rachel's party and how nervous Blaine was to meet all of Kurt's friends. They'd laughed, joked and sand along with the radio. It had been a fun morning.
Kurt had spent the start of the afternoon baking cupcakes while Blaine watched Cartoons in the front room, but after a while Kurt wanted to spend yet more time with Blaine so he called him into do some cake decorating.
At first Blaine put up a fight, saying he was useless, or that he had a game to watch or what not, but after Kurt had sat him down and helped him with the first one he was ever so pleased with himself and just kept going while Kurt continued to bake.
Once all of the cupcakes had been cooked, half of them were now decorated while the other half were waiting for their turn. Kurt was sat in the chair next to Blaine as they spoke about everything and nothing while decorating the cup cakes. Occasionally their arms would brush against each other and every time Kurt would blush as he could feel an electrical current pass through him every time.
The two had been sat in silence for the past few minutes now and Kurt jumped when Blaine broke the silence.
"Kurt?" Blaine said, as he lowered his cupcake and turned his gaze towards him.
Kurt stopped what he was doing and looked towards Blaine, that was all that he needed to continue.
"I want to thank you."
"Thank me? For What?" Kurt asked sounding slightly puzzled. His eyes did that thing, when they glistened and he tilted his head to the side and raised his eyebrows.. he looked positively adorable.
Blaine dropped his gaze as he could feel his cheeks burning. "I want to Thank you for everything you have done for me." Kurt started to protest so he raised his hand and pleaded with his eyes for him to just listen.
"Now, I know that you have all had a lot to think about and deal with since you have invited me to move in here, I just wanted yo thank you, thank all of you for your hospitality. I mean, you've only known me 6 months and for you to do this, I-I," he was struggling. He hated talking about his feelings, he had never been any good at it. Even though he had let Kurt and his parents into his past it was still hard.
"I appreciate what you have done for me and I, I just wanted you to know that, If the situation was reversed." He felt bad for saying that so he quickly carried on explaining "Which I'm glad it's not because I don't know how I'd feel if it was you going through this, being treated that way.. I don't care about me, but if it was you.. I just.." He could feel himself getting angry at the thought of someone treating Kurt that way, calling him those names..
"Blaine? Are you okay?" Kurt asked, as he reached out and placed his hand on his which brought him out of thoughts.
"-yeah, sorry. I, ugh, I got distracted.." he said smiling at him.
"I can see that" Kurt said teasingly, smiling at him. Then his voice turned more serious, "You don't need to thank me Blaine."
Blaine smiled at him "Yes I do, Kurt. You have done so much for me and I can't, I can't just let it go." He grabbed Kurt's other hand in his and held them there, looking at him straight in the eye, begging him to understand and to listen.
"You have all had to change the way you live. Your parents now have someone else to look after, you and Finn now have another person living in your house. It can't be easy Kurt." He couldn't just drop this. Everyone's life had now changed because he was now a part of that family. They have may have been happy with the change, but it was still a change all the same.
"None of you will ever no how much I appreciate all that you have done for me and I know that you are happy with the way things have turned out. I know your Dad enjoys having me here and so do Finn and Carole, I just can't stop feeling guilty about intruding." He sounded soppy and sad now, he could hear his own voice break.
He watched as Kurt pulled his chair closer to him and moved his hand to touch his face. He shuddered at the feel of Kurt's hand on his cheek, it sent shivers down his spine.
"Blaine, honey, you have nothing to feel guilty about.."
He was watching Kurt as he did a quick look around to make sure no one else was here. Blaine froze, why did he need to check. What was he going to do? Or say?
"They are all happy you are here. Carole loves having another person to look after, she always wanted a big family and she loves you. Finn loves having another brother, someone who can actually understand some of the things he talks about when it comes to the xBox and football. And my dad? My Dad is the happiest to have you here."
Blaine sent him a look that said he didn't believe him, "why?"
"Do you really want to know why?" Kurt asked, his hand was still resting on his cheek, rubbing soothing circles into his soft skin.
Blaine could sit like this, this close to Kurt, just talking for hours. Even if he did feel like he was about to cry. He wasn't sure if he wanted to know the answer but he nodded anyway.
"My Dad, he's thought of you as a son for a while now Blaine. Ever since I started to get worried about you and would rant about how I thought your parents were being mean to you.. he's had this, this protective edge over you." Kurt sent him a genuine smile and he couldn't help but return his own weak smile.
"It was his idea for you to come here Blaine, he was the one that suggested it. I wanted to ask if you could stay, but I didn't have the courage to ask him. He was the one who told me to ask you."
"What? Really? But- why?" he asked, his voice broke and a single tear fell down his face. Why was he being so emotional right now!
"Because-" he said using his thumb to wipe away his tear "he knows how much it hurt me knowing how unhappy you were. With each day, I would get more scared and more anxious, worried that I wouldn't get to make you smile or laugh." Kurt let out a deep sigh and dropped his gaze. "Because he knows how much you mean to me.." Kurt returned his gaze to Blaine's.
Blaine tried to process everything that Kurt had just said but for some reason he couldn't. He couldn't let it sink in..
"He didn't do this for just you Blaine, he did it for me too."
The two boys continued to look into each others eyes, searching the others face as they tried to think of a way to not ruin the moment.
All Blaine wanted to do was lean in and kiss him, right now. He leaned in ever so slightly, he's eyes never leaving Kurt's and smiled to himself when he saw Kurt repeat the movement, leaning slightly closer towards him.
All Blaine could see was this beautiful boy in front of him, the boy he was ever so certain he loved. The boy he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. The one he wouldn't live without.
"HOLY SHIT PUCK! I can't believe you said that dude! That's my girlfriend you're talking about! And your ex!" Finn shouted as he walked through the door followed by a tall boy with a mohawk, obviously Puck.
At the sound of Finn's voice Kurt straightened himself up and Blaine practically fell off of his chair. Kurt had to jump up and grab his hand and leg to stop him from falling. When they were both sat back in their seats, their cheeks were burning red as Finn and Puck were grabbing a drink from the fridge.
"Alright Blaine, Kurt?" Finn asked grabbing the carton of milk, he turned to face them as he took off the lid "Jeez Dude's Why so red?"
"It's just hot in here. We've been baking all afternoon." Kurt said and Blaine turned to him and nodded in appreciation. He had always been quick on his feet.
"Oh right. Cool." was all he said as he started to pour milk into the glasses that Puck was holding in front of him.
"So, who's this guy?" Puck said tilting his head in the direction of him. He gulped and smiled at him.
"Noah, this is Blaine. Blaine, this is Noah." Kurt said using his hand to point to the right person at the right time.
Noah? I thought, but Finn just called him Puck.
"It's Puck" he said looking him up and down as if he was eyeing him up, just like Rachel had done the day before.
"it's nice to meet you, Puck."
Finn turned to put the milk back in the fridge and smiled at them "We're off to play Black Ops! Puck's here until the party so, yeah. Later dudes!" And with that he was off, out of the kitchen and up the stairs while Puck remained, just watching him.
"Can we help you Noah?" Kurt let out a sigh as he asked, his voice sounding bored and irritated. His tone made Blaine smile.
"No." His voice was a little bit too sweet for Blaine's liking.
He watched as Puck moved closer to the table and leaned across it, his eyes remaining on Blaine's the entire time. He was practically shaking. Puck looked like, if you weren't on his good side they you'd be in trouble. He was terrifying. He shot a panicked glance to Kurt who just shook his head and grabbed his hand under the table.
"You hurt him, and I will go all Death star on you! You understand Dude! Kurt is good people!"
Blaine gulped and nodded, he was terrified but he needed to stand up. He could stand up to his Father, so he could stand up to Kurt's friends. He smiled at him.
"I understand completely Puck. I will never hurt him. I don't think I've ever done so and I don't plan on doing it anytime in the future. I do understand that Kurt is good people and if I do ever hurt him I give you permission to go all " he smiled as he quoted the air "death star on me."
Puck looked at him and nodded in approval.
"That's dope dude." he said to Blaine smiling and fist bumping him before he turned to Kurt. "You did good Kurt" he said as he patted him on the back and squeezed his shoulder and muttering "You did good" one more time before joining Finn upstairs.
He turned to look at Kurt who was already looking at him, smiling "You didn't have to say that, he would have backed off eventually."
He smiled at him "It was okay. I meant it" before picking up the nearest cup cake and the pink tube of icing and started decorating.
6:35pm
Kurt and Blaine were in Kurt's bedroom. Kurt was sat at his desk while Blaine was grabbing some of his clothes from Kurt's wardrobe.
"You're not wearing that are you!" he said to Blaine as he walked out of the wardrobe, clothes in hand. His tone was coloured with utter disgust.
Blaine rolled his eyes and let out a soft, playful sigh. "What's wrong with this!" he said holding up a bright orange shirt with his black skinnies.
"That" Kurt said standing up and taking the orange shirt and throwing it in the direction of his bin "Is absolutely dreadful."
He left Blaine standing there looking only slightly irritated and went and found one of his shirts that he knew Blaine would look gorgeous in.
"There we go, go shower and put this on. You'll look absolutely perfect." He smiled at Blaine and took his place back at his desk.
Kurt couldn't see Blaine playfully sticking his tongue out at him as he made his way to the bathroom. He was too busy starting his letter to Blaine. He already knew what he was going to write about, he was just glad that he had some time to be able to tell Blaine the thought's that were going on inside his head.
It didn't take him long to finish the letter, he didn't have much to say, he just needed to say it.
Kurt put the letter in an envelope and kissed it gently before placing it in his memory box. He remained in his chair for a while, listening to Blaine singing P!nk in the shower and smiling. He loved the sound of Blaine's voice. It could always make him smile. He then made his way to his wardrobe and changed into the out fit that he had picked specially for this occasion.
Tonight could be a big night.
Hey all, what did you think?
Now I kinda liked this while writing it, now reading through it I don't know if it fits? I mean I do like the whole kitchen scene and I think it was extremely important in the development of Klaine. I mean THEY ALMOST KISSED! But what do you guys think? Any opinions are welcome :)
