Hello! New chapter for ya :D I feel like this is kinda a filler chapter and I've been thinking about not posting it and writing a new one (which I did and it was terrible). I decided to put this one up, though it is somewhat a filler chapter, I just hope I've manged to make it interesting somehow.
I don't own Glee nor YouTube
Enjoy!
"Wes!" Nick yelled as he ran into the hotel room. "Guys! We need to change our mainstage act!"
"What?!" Wes asked, looking up from where he was tying his shoe. "What are you talking about?"
"We can't do the skit we have planned," Nick said taking a seat next to Jeff. "We need to sing."
"Why the sudden change of plans?" I ask. "I think our skit is awesome."
"Yes but it's not what the people want," Nick said. "I was doing a Twitter Q and A last night and all of them were asking if we're singing!"
"What did you say?" Jeff asked, rubbing his distraught boyfriends back comfortingly.
"I ignored though questions," Nick said as he looked around the group. "I mean, we haven't told anyone our plans and we could use the animal onesies in a video or something."
"Well," David said, scratching his head. "I don't see why not. Singing is our thing."
"Yeah," I say. "Kurt kept asking me if we're singing but I haven't answered him."
"I'll do whatever you guys wanna do." Jeff said looking around the group.
"Anyone against the idea of us singing?" Wes asked. When no one disagreed his clapped his hands together. "David, call Thad, he can beatbox. We have an hour and half to put together a playlist."
Trent, Mercedes, Tina, and I headed out of the hotel lobby and over to one of the rent a cars that's being shared with the group. They boys are taking the bigger one to the venue later so that leaves us with the small one for our outing but it's not like the car size really got behind the wheel because it seems that he knows the streets of Florida better than I do. I got in the passenger seat while Tina and Mercedes got in the back.
"We should all get new outfits to wear to Playlist today!" Trent said happily. He glanced over at me with a smile as he started the car and pulled out of the front parking lot. "We should get you one that will drive Blaine's crazy."
I feel heat rush to my face and hide my face in my hands. I let out a groan and the girls laugh at me. Trent lets out a laugh as I lift my face from my hands and send him a glare.
"I'll have you know I have plant of outfits that drive Blaine crazy," I say matter-of-factually. "Have you seen my jeans?"
"That's true, they're tight." Mercedes sad from the back. "How you manged to wear them everyday is beyond me."
"But besides jeans," Trent said. "Like, get a pair of really nice shorts that make your butt look amazing and a shirt that fits you in all the right places."
"Somehow I feel like this is going to take longer then we planed." Tina said and Mercedes nodded in agreement.
Trent and I shared a look before letting out a bark of laughter. Could these girls get any more dramatic? Ugh, I love them so. I smiled to myself as I think about the conversation I had with Tina while Trent was trying to get Mercedes up.
"You're sure we don't need our passes anymore?" She asked. "We can get backstage and all with you guys?"
"But of course," I say. "Trent said that since we're friends with the guys and plus I'm Blaine's boyfriend, we get to go into the green room and such."
"Awesome." Tina said with a smile.
"But I would still bring your passes though," Trent said, grabbing a pillow from besides Mercedes' head. "Just incase they want to see it or something. Just bring some sort of ID."
"Trent stop!" Mercedes begged. "I'm trying to sleep."
"And I'm trying to go shopping." He said right back, hitting her with the pillow. "Wake up!"
She grabbed the pillow away from him and grumbled to herself before sitting up and getting out if bed, grumbling to herself as she went.
"This better not turn into an all morning thing," 'Cedes said. "I would like to go to Playlist y'know."
"Yes I know dear," Trent said as he made a right turn. "Just be lucky Thad got whisked away by the boys, he would have made it all afternoon."
Tina chuckled. "Before we do anything I need coffee... And food. Coffee and food."
"Perfect! I know this place to eat and it isn't IHOP." Trent said with a smile. "It's only a few minutes away."
"Finally! Something besides IHOP," I sigh happily. "I'm pancaked out."
"I know right?" Trent said as I played with the radio station. "I love pancakes but I cannot eat them for every meal."
I nod in agreement as I find a station that playing a good song, turning it up. Lady Gaga blasted through the speakers, all four of us singing long to Bad Romance in a fit of giggles.
"Okay... So we have Teenage Dream, Silly Love Songs, and Misery. After those songs we can do a Q and A that Thad, Trent and Kurt can host." Wes said and we all nod in agreement.
"I think we should do Teenage Dream last though," I say. "The fans love it so it can be a nice way to end the songs plus I wanna sing it to Kurt."
"Alright," David said. "Sounds like a plan."
"We have," Jeff paused to look at his watch before continuing. "Forty five minutes before we need to head over to the meet and greet. I need food."
"You always need food," Nick said with a laugh, leaning over and gave Jeff a chaste kiss on the lips. "But I'm hungry too."
"We can stop and get something to go from the diner down the street, like breakfast sandwiches or something easy." David said, getting up and started looking through the drawers. "I'm sure I've seen a pamphlet around here somewhere."
"It's in the top right desk drawer." Wes said from without looking at his phone.
David goes over and sure enough it was there. He got all our orders before calling. While he was doing that I took out my phone and got on twitter. I scrolled through my news feeds, favoriting a few tweets from fans before writing a tweet myself.
BlaineWarbler: Gonna get a quick breakfast before heading to the meet up! Can't wait to meet all of you :D
I read some of the replies, some people writing in all caps that they're already waiting for us and others saying how they're sitting at home crying because they can't be there. I laugh a bit, exiting out of twitter, locking my phone and putting away in my shorts pocket.
I look up to see Nick filming me so I make a face as I got up, headed for the bathroom. I give myself a look over in the mirror, straightening out my clothes and hair. I laugh to myself as I smooth out my simple black polo that was tucked into red pants with a white belt, topped off with a red, black and white striped bowtie. I had Kurt do my hair since he knows how to style it well. My curls are 'tamed but yet bouncy and fun', as Kurt put it earlier.
My phone dings and I fish it out of my pocket, smiling when I see that it's a twitter mention from Kurt. I unlock my phone and read the tweet.
Kurt_Hummel: BlaineWarbler have fun! I'll be the crazy one in the back screaming his head off
I chuckle, answering as the sounds of the boys getting up and ready come from the other room. '
BlaineWarbler: Kurt_Hummel don't get too crazy now :P Wouldn't want you to get kicked out!
Kurt favored it but didn't answer. I shrug, he's probably just getting to the mall and rushing off to shop. I smile at the thought of Kurt and Trent running around the mall while Tina and Mercedes are stuck chasing after them.
"Come on Blainers," Thad said, flickering the bathroom lights on and off. "Let's get some grub and get you guys go to the meet and greet."
"You aren't coming?" I ask, heading out of the bathroom and out of the door with him. "I'm sure the fans will want to meet you."
"Yeah I know but you guys are the stars," He smiled as we all headed down the hallway and to the elevators. "I'm gonna chill in the back but maybe I'll come out for a few pictures."
"Y'know, one of the questions that I got asked last night was if Trent, Thad and Kurt are gonna be at the meet and greet." Nick said.
"What did you say?"
"I said maybe, I wasn't sure."
"We may be the starts but so are you," Wes said, coming up and wrapping an arm around Thad's shoulders. "Now, you're going to be at the meet and greet and be out there the whole time."
Thad laughs and pushes him off playfully. "Not the whole time but I'll be there. I think Trent and the others are gonna meet up with me sometime while you guys are doing your thing."
"So they'll be there for the mainstage?" I ask as we pile onto the elevator, the doors closing.
"Of course," Thad said. "Like Kurt would miss your performance."
"That is true," David said. "If Kurt misses the mainstage he would have Trent's head."
"I don't if I would go that far but yeah, something like that." Jeff smiled. "I cannot wait to see his face when you sing Teenage Dream to him."
"I'll make sure to have Trent record it," I said, pulling out my phone and sending Trent a text. "I just don't know if I should bring him on stage or just sing him from where is in front."
"On the stage!" Nick said, bouncing on his feet and clapping his hands. "It'll be so amazing!"
"And afterwards you can confirm your relationship for the fans!" Jeff cheers. "Oh my gosh, this is perfect!"
"I'm flattered guys," I smile. "But please stop fangirling over my relationship with Kurt."
"No can do," Jeff says. "As captain of this ship, I can't back down."
"You so friggin weird." I laugh as Jeff gives me a fake salute.
Once we get to the car, we all pile in. David in the driver's seat, Wes next to him, and the four of us squeezed into the back. Jeff decides to sit on Nick's lap and rest his legs in mine and Thad's lap. David started the car, pulls out of the parking space and headed towards the diner for our food, Jeff cheering for his sandwich all the way there.
"Well I think that was a successful shopping trip," Trent said happily. "We all got a bunch of cute clothes."
"Agreed," Tina said as we walked around the mall just window shopping now. "I should go shopping with the two of you more often."
"Totally," Mercedes grinned. "It's a lot better with two people dressing you instead of one. I love what Kurt picks out for me but having Trent help is even better."
Trent turns his head to look at me and smiles. "Guess we make a pretty great team huh?"
"That we do," I smile back at him as a scarf in a window catches my eye. I walk over to it and stare at it; black with skulls all over it. "I need at that scarf."
Mercedes walks over so she's standing right next to me and tilts her head to the side. "Really? Don't you have one just like it at home?"
I look over my shoulder to see Trent talking to Tina. I lick my lips before turning back to look at Mercedes. "It's not for me, it's for Tina."
"For her birthday?" Mercedes asked.
"No, I already have her birthday present though it's not for another six months," I say before explaining. "She really likes the one I have but since it's Alexander McQueen its super expensive online, like over two hundred dollars."
"So you're gonna buy her it for no real reason?" 'Cedes asked as I head into the store.
"Yes," I say rolling my eyes. "I buy you guys things for no real reason all time. It just depends on the price."
Mercedes just shrugged, walking off to a different part of the store while I headed for the scarfs. I spotted the one I wanted right away, grabbing it from the rack and looking at the price, hoping that it wasn't all that expensive. I looked at was pleasantly surprised; only eighty dollars, sure that's still much but at least it's not hundred dollars plus. I smile to myself before heading over to find Mercedes but then something catches my eye.
It's a watch, a very simple watch but there's something about it that screams Blaine. I walk over to it and pick it up, noticing that it's a dark navy color and the face of it is red with white numbering. It's the perfect Warbler watch. I chuckle as I look at it more, it getting more and more perfect. I lick my lips before looking at the price. Fifty dollars. Do I dare get it? Yes. Yes I do dare.
After I pay I find Mercedes outside the store with Trent and Tina, all laughing at something the boy said. Tina sees me approaching and smiles.
"What took so long?" She asks as we head out of the mall. "That store is expensive, hope you didn't max out your credit card."
"Don't worry, I didn't." I give her wink before looking over at Mercedes. "You can take the front. I wanna sit in the back with Tina."
She nodded. We got to the car and as planned, Mercedes and Trent got in the front while Tina and I got in the back after loading our bags into the trunk. I put all of them except one back there. I should wait to give Tina her scarf but I'm to excited to wait. I look over at her and grin, making her give me a strange look.
"What?" She asks through a laugh. "What are you smiling at?"
"I got you something," I say. "Close your eyes. Don't look!"
She does as instructed. I take the scarf out of the bag while telling her to put her hands out. I place it gently in her hands. "Okay, open them!"
Her eyes open and soon grow wide as she sees the scarf. She looks at me, to the scarf, and then back to me. She lets out a squeal and throws her arms around me. "Oh my gosh, thank you so much!"
I hug her back. "No problem. I mean, it's not exactly like the one I have but it's close."
"I don't care," She said, pulling away and looking at it, smiling. "I love it."
"That was sweet Kurt," Trent smiled before getting an excited look on his face. "Now who's readying for Playlist?!"
"I thought we were gonna go back and change." Mercedes said.
"Screw that idea, I'm to excited! We all look hot anyway." Trent said, pressing on the gas as the light turned green.
The three of us laughed and 'Cedes turned up the radio, blasting She Looks So Perfect throughout the car. The four of us sing along and I can't help but grin. Blasting songs and singing along while in the car seems to be our thing and I'm loving every second of it.
Small talk. Pose. Smile. Hug. Repeat.
Small talk. Pose. Smile. Hug. Repeat.
I hold back a yawn as the girl walks away, gushing to her friend about meeting us. Don't get me wrong, I love meeting my fans, they're the reason I'm here, but I'm growing tired. We've been at this for an hour and a half straight. I look over at Jeff who is buzzing like a little kid on a sugar high, talking animatedly with the fans and hugging them tightly. How is he not tired? My cheeks hurt from smiling so much and I feel like I could sleep for hours. I should have gotten a bigger coffee. I need coffee.. or Kurt. Coffee or Kurt. No. Coffee and Kurt.
Small talk. Pose. Smile. Hug. Repeat.
Small talk. Pose. Smile. Hug. Repeat.
This is what I get for staying up all night talking and making out with Kurt. I smile at the memory of my boyfriend's lips on mine but quickly pushed the thought out of my mind. What am I doing? I shouldn't be thinking about this now, I have fans to meet! God, what's wrong with me?
I smile at the girl who hugged me, giving her a tight squeeze as she tells me that he thinks that Kurt and I are a cute couple. I smile, signing her notebook page before getting a group picture. The next girl was very shy, which I thought was adorable. She gave Wes a tight hug, mumbling something to him that made him get a look of awe before he returned the hug. I snap a quick picture of the moment before the girl pulls away and starts hugging the rest of us.
About ten minutes later, everyone still in line screamed, making me cover my ears and turn around trying to find what made them scream. I let out a laugh when I see Trent standing behind us, striking a pose. He holds it for a moment more before stopping, laughing as he waves to his fans.
"Since Thad was out earlier, I figured it would only be fair if I get my time to shine." He smiled as a boy comes over and gives him a hug that Trent gratefully accepts.
The boy shyly walks over to me and I see that he can't be any older than ten years old, thought I couldn't tell seeing he was on the short side. I smile at him as he hands me a letter, his hand shaking slightly.
"I wrote you a letter," He says quietly. "To thank you."
"Thank me?" I ask, kneeling down so I was somewhat eye level with him. I take the letter from him and look down at it before back at him. "What for?"
"Helping me," He smiles. "You helped me figure out who I am. Even though I get bullied for it, I wanna thank you."
It takes me a moment to figure out what he means before smiling at him, making his smile back. I pull him for a hug, giving him a squeeze. I pull back, asking him what his name was.
Still smiling, he answered; "My name's Cameron."
"Well Cameron," I say, reaching out to give his shoulder a light squeeze. "I am so proud that you figured out who you are at such a young age. Just remember, don't let the bullies win alright?"
He nods before giving me another hug, this one with a lot more confidence. He mumbles a quick thank you before pulling away and moving to stand next to me. The guys huddle around us for a picture, myself staying on my knees with my arm around Cameron's shoulders. After, who I'm guessing was his mom, got the picture, he waved goodbye and walked away.
I slip the letter into my back pocket as Trent nudges my side, letting me know that Kurt's in the green room waiting for me. I smile and thank him before taking a deep breath, feeling more away. What Cameron told me made me feel really great. I helped him and I didn't even know it. I feel giddy and more awake than I did earlier. Hugging the next viewer, I think about all the people who have come and met us, wondering just how many of them we actually helped.
For the rest of the meet and greet, my smile never left my face.
How was it? Love it? Hate it? Let me know lol
Sorry if Blaine seemed kind of out of it at the beginning of the last part, I tried to rewriting it but that's the best I got. I promise next chapter will be much more exciting because there's gonna be some klaine moments, The Warblers mainstage, and just plain fun haha!
Until next time..
