Chapter 26
Burt and Kurt were sitting outside Dalton haveing arrived about 45 minutes ago, Burt had pratically dragged Kurt out of the house.
EARLIER AT KURTS HOUSE
"Kurt grab a coat because we're going for a little ride" Burt said as he entered Kurts room. Kurt was currently hiding under his covers, they rose and fell from Kurts sobbing.
"I'm not going anywhere!." Kurt said through his sobs as he tried to control his voice. Burt walked up to his bed and yanked the covers down.
"DAD!" Kurt shouted as both he and Burt played tug of war with them, he grabbed Kurts arm and yanked him up onto his feet. Burt placed both his hands onto his sons shoulders as Kurts eyes slipped to the floor. Kurts shoulders were shaking as he tried to control his tears, he started to rub at his hand as his agitation grew. Burt looked down towards Kurts hands, sighing he reached down and wrapped his own hands around Kurts preventing him from rubbing.
"Kurt" Burt softly said, "You can't keep doing this... It's time to face your last fear" Burt whispered as he tried to look his son in his eyes. Kurt looked up into his fathers eyes as a frown appeared on his face, not understanding what his father was trying to say. Burt looked deep into his sons eyes as he took a deep breath.
"Blaine" Burt simply stated.
"No!" Kurt said forcefully as he shook his head, trying to pull his hands out of his fathers grip. Burt held on tight as he slowly backed towards the door, pulling Kurt gently with him. Surprisingly Kurt didn't put up to much of a struggle as Burt led his son to his car Burt had taken this as a good sign. A couple of times Kurt had tried to pull his hand away but with less force each time, Burt silently thanked the heavens that Kurt was coming, not entirely cooperative, but with not too much of a struggle.
BACK AT DALTON
Although they had pulled up at Dalton Kurt and Burt had not actually left the car. Kurt was currently staring at the main door of the school as his inward turmoil was evident in his body. He had fidgeted, looked at the school and then at his father who just raised his eyes and shrugged, as if to say Your choice. Kurt didn't know what to do, should he go in and face Blaine or chicken out, like so many times before, and have his father be dissapointed in him.
"I won't be dissapointed in you if you don't go in" Burt said as he watched Kurts indecision. Kurt turned to face his father, he started to absently rub his hand again. Burts eyes slipped down to watch his sons movements.
"But that will not stop until you come to terms with everything" Burt softly said to his son. Kurt looked down to his hands and sighed, he looked back up at his father his eyes starting to moisten, his eyes where full of worry and fear.
"i'm scared" Kurt whispered to his father.
"What are you afraid of?" Burt asked as he took Kurts hand in his. Kurt looked down at their entwined hands, feeling the warmth and comfort from his fathers hand.
"Rejection" Kurt whispered, he looked back up to his father as a single tear fell from his eye "What... what if he dosen't wnt to know me when I tell him" Kurt whispered as his breath hitched.
Burt looked into his sons eyes "Give him a chance Kurt... He might surprise you" He said with more confidence than he felt. He was scared to that Blaine would turn his back on his son. "Maybe it's time to trust in him... and his feelings for you" Burt added as he gave his son a small smile.
Kurt looked at his father, he knew he was right but was he himself ready to take that step. Kurt was shaken out of his thoughts as he jumped at a knock on his passenger window. Kurt shot his head round and there stood Jeff waving with an excited grin on his face.
"Where the hell does he come from all the time?" Kurt said more to himself than anyone else. He wound down his window and Jeff all but popped his whole body in as he tried to hug Kurt through the open window.
"Kurt are you back.. did you get my video.. god I hope so Blaines been so miserable lately " Jeff rambled into Kurts shoulder, Jeff pulled away and opened Kurts door. Grabbing Kurts hand he dragged him out of the car. "When I heard him sing that song... God I knew I just had to send it to you instead of posting it on You Tube" Jeff stopped to take a breath giving Kurt a chance to jump in.
"I'm not sure if I'm ready to come back, but yes I'v come to see Blaine" Kurt said as he laid a hand on Jeffs shoulder to try and stop him from bouncing, the sight making Kurt feel more sicker than what he was from his nerves. "How did your number get in my contacts by the way?" Kurt asked Jeff with a questioning glance.
"Oh that's so cool... Blaine will be so happy" Jeff said as he almost did a hand fist into the air. "And I put my number in before you had your... " Jeff started to but instead made a whistleing noice and made the loop sign around his head as he raised his eyes. Kurt glared at him for 1. going into his phone, and him sound completely loopy.
"Come on I'll take you to see Blaine, his in the music room with Wes and David" Jeff said as he grabbed Kurts hand and dragged Kurt towards the Dalton door. Kurts face gaped in amazement as he was dragged off, he turned to his father for help but Burt just shrugged with a smile then follwed them in, Kurt Glared at his dad.
In the music room the 3 boys were working on a new song that Blaine wanted to sing to Kurt.
"What if this dosen't work" David said as he stood next to the piano watching Blaine tinker on the keys. "I mean... you've not had a good track record where wooing people with songs... have you" David said with a sly grin.
"Ha ha very funny" Blaine said as he looked up at David. "That was different, this song is different". Sounding more confident than he felt, as he looked back at the keys.
"Yeah... ye have little faith" Wes said to David as he grinned at Blaine, Blaine grinned back and gave Wes a slight nod as thankyou. David was about to reply when the door of the music room slammed open.
"Blaine look who I've found hanging around outside," Jeff said as he pushed Kurt into the room. Blaine turned round his eyes widening as he saw Kurt standing in front of Jeff. Kurt fidgeted nervously as he started to rub his hand.
"Hey " Blaine whispered as he rose from the piano seat fidgeting himself as he was nervous to, he hadn't seen Kurt for 2 weeks.
"Hey " Kurt whispered back with a small smile on his face. Blaine took a step towards Kurt as the other guys watched from the sidelines, wandering what Kurt would do. As Blaine walked slowly towards him Kurt had to fight the urge to stepback, his uncertainty must of shown in his eyes because Blaine stopped and looked at him.
"Hi Mr Hummel" David said as he noticed Kurts father standing just behind Kurt. Blaine hadn't noticed him as all his attention was focused on Kurt. He shook his head then let his eyes meet with Kurts father, unsure what reaction he would recieve. The last time he had spoken to Burt was at Breadsticks, and that didn't go well. Burt looked towards Blaine locking his eyes with his, he saw uncertainty in Blaines eyes mixed with worry and slight fear.
"Hey Blaine" Burt said as he stepped forward and shook his hand. Blaine was in shock, he hadn't expected this response, he didn't respond for a few seconds as he stared at Kurts father.
"Hi Mr Hummel" Blaine said back, still unsure.
"Burt" he said as Blaine gave him a more confident smile.
"Burt" Blaine added, then his attention slipped back to Kurt. "Are you coming back to Dalton?" Blaine asked hoping that the answer would be yes. Kurt looked at Blaine a he gave a small smile.
"Yes I am but I don't know when" Kurt said as he tried to steady his nerves. Blaine stared at Kurt as he took a step closer, Kurt this time didn't have the urge to step away. Blaine felt this was a good sign so he took another step, then he slowly wrapped his arms around Kurt. Kurt hesitated at first.
God i've pushed it to far Blaine thought. As he was just about to pull away Kurt wrapped his arms around him, Blaine let out the breath he had been holding a he relaxed into Kurts arms.
"I've missed you" Blaine whispered his voice hitching slightly, Kurt pulled him in tighter.
"I've missed you to" He whispered, himself trying to prevent his tears from falling. They stayed like this for a few moments until a discreet cough came from Burts direction. Blaine pulled slightly away so he could look into Kurts eye.
"I'm... I'm not sure I'm ready to tell you what happened" Kurt said as he looked at Blaine. "But I'd like to start seeing you again... maybe have our coffee mornings!" Kurt added a bit unsure as to whether Blaine would be happy with that. Blaine looked at him and gave him a cheeky smile.
"Ok but only if you let me sing to you one more time" Blaine said as he gave Kurt a little pout. David shook his head grinnig.
"God I don't believe his trying the puppy dog eyes" David to Wes laughing " Be strong Kurt say no... Don't give in too soon"
Wes slapped David raising his eyes as he stared at him a if to say shut up! David shoved Wes back as he stuck his toungue out, Wes just rolled his eyes as he turned back to Blaine and Kurt.
"Like it's gone so well for you the last couple of times." Kurt said as he gave Blaine a cheeky grin of his own.
Blaines pout got bigger "But this time will be different... I promise" He said trying to convince Kurt.
"Fine" Kurt said as he rolled his eyes giving Blaine a small smile as Blaine gave him his goofy grin in response. As Blaine turned and nearly ran to the piano Kurt stayed still as his confidence wavered. He wasn't sure what Blaine was going to sing becuase he tended to, how do you say, go over the top sometimes with his choice of song and the way he sang. Kurt loved watching Blaine perform but he was still a bit apprehensive at being serenaded in front of his father, if the sexy song had anything to go by. As Blaine sat at the piano he turned to smile at Kurt, Blaines smile fell as he watched Kurt. He was standing a little more tenser than before, as he started to rub his hand Kurts eyes flitted between trust and apprehension. Blaine sighed as he stood and walked over to Kurt, he reached for Kurts hand and slowly led him to the piano.
"Please Kurt trust me" Blaine said as he motioned for Kurt to sit next to him. Kurt snatched a look at his father for reassurance, Burt just shrugged his shoulders the same as when they were in the car outside indicating that it was Kurts choice. Kurt turned to David and Wes, the 2 boys had remained silent as Blaine and Kurt got reaquainted, they both nodded. Kurt gave them a small smile in acceptance and took his seat next to Blaine.
"Thankyou Kurt" Blaine said, he wanted so much to just hold Kurts hand in his but he placed his hands in his own lap. "..For giving me this chance". Kurt gave him a small smile as he looked down towards his own hand, rubbing it. Blaines eyes flitted down towards Kurts hand as a frown appeared on his face.
Why does he keep doing that Blaine thought to himself Is he that nervous of me?
Blaine turned back to to face the piano he looked at his 2 best friends seeking reassurance and they both nodded, giving Blaine small smiles, Blaine took a deep breath and started to play.
"I know that you may be unsure about whether you should trust me, or my feelings for you... I know I haven't had the best track record. " Blaine said as he turned his head to look at Kurt. Kurt hadn't returned Blaines look but he had given a small smile as he stilled looked down at his hands.
"I'm hoping that this song " Blaine said as he took another deep breath " Will convey how much you mean to me... I mean... I'm better at saying how I feel through song" Blaine said as he gave Kurt a nudge with his shoulder. Kurt looked up at Blaine and returned Blaines smile, Blaine began to sing as he looked into Kurts eyes.

After Blaine had finished singing thoughts started racing through Kurts mind.. Did Blaine just say he loved me... Just smile don't scream like a girl... But will he still love me after he knows... Can I trust him to believe me to not judge me... god I want to trust him... I love him so much!
Blaine watched as he saw the mixed emotions run through Kurts eyes Oh god he hated it Blaine thought. Blaines face fell as the hope he had been feeling as he sang fell from his heart, he looked down at his hands as his eyes started to moisten.
"It was too much too soon... GOD i'm so stupid" Blaine must of whispered this out loud because he felt tender fingers under his chin as the slowly lifted his head. Kurt looked into Blaines moisten eyes, a watery smile on his face.
"I'm ready" he quietly said. Blaine gave Kurt a small smile as Kurt removed his hand from Blaines face, Blaine felt a coldness were Kurts finger tips had been wishing they were still there.
Kurt took a deep breath and began, never looking in Blaines eyes. Blaine listened as Kurt told him everything about Jessie, David and the mall. He stayed silent as his face fell with sadness at what Kurt had endured, fighting the urge to just go and beat the living daylights out of David and Jessie, he remained still although his whole body was tensing. His eyes fell to his hands as he wrapped his fingers a round themselves as he tried to bury his anger, Kurt didn't need him flying off the handle right now it was difficult for Kurt as it was. So he just kept his eyes down so Kurt would not see his anger otherwise Kurt would stop and he needed for him to carry on so that he knew everything.
After Kurt had finshed he looked at Blaine his eyes full of fear and worry, apprehensively he waited for Blaines reaction. He watched Blaine as he just stared at his hands, the look on Blaines face as he tried control his emotions. Kurts eyes started to water as he missunderstood Blaines reaction, the fear inside him started to fizzle as he thought that Blaine was going to reject him.
I shouldn't of told him Kurt thought He hates me now... thinks i'm tainted!.
Kurt started to rub his hand more roughly, his eyes flitted to his father the look Kurt gave him was as if to say SEE I told you!. Burt gave him a small reassuring watery smile and placed his hand out in front of him. 'Wait' he mouthed, willing Kurt to just give Blaine a minute because it was a lot to take in in one go. Kurt looked back at Blaine, he hadn't moved, hadn't said a word.
"I'm sorry" Kurt whispered as he made to stand.
Blaine reached for Kurts hand stopping him, preventing him from leaving. Kurt stopped he stared at Blaine, his eyes wide, unsure as to what Blaine was going to do. Blaine slowly lifted the hand that Kurt had been rubbing up towards his mouth, he understood now why Kurt was always rubbing it. Blaine lifted his eyes to look into Kurts his eyes, Kurts was surprised to see tears silently falling down Blaines face matching his own.
"Was it this hand?" Blaine whispered his breath ghosting Kurts hand as he waited for Kurts answer. Kurts breath hitched as he closed his eyes and nodded slowly. Kurts eyes flew open as he felt soft kisses traveling over his hand, he watched as Blaine covered his entire hand with soft tender butterfly kisses. Kurt smiled a mixture of relief, fear and sadness as Blaine lowered his hand. Blaine looked into Kurts eyes then let them travel to his cheek as his finger tips tenderly touched it.
"And here?" Blaine whispered, Kurt nodded slowly as his tears fell freely.
Blaine leaned in and gently kissed Kurts cheek, removing the feeling of Jessie and replacing it with his touch. Kurt started to sob as Blaine enveloped him into his arms.
"I love you " Blaine whispered in Kurts ear as his own tears fell. Kurt collapsed into Blaines arms, all his feelings pouring out off his very soul, his body shook as his broken sobs echoed around the music room as Blaine pulled him in tighter. Kurts own hands gripping onto Blaines blazer as he held onto the boy he loved, never wanting to let go again.
I hope this was worth the wait, it took me ages to find Blaines last song. I wanted something that fitted in with Kurts situation (the fact he was hiding something from Blaine) but also that conveyed the way Blaine felt about Kurt. I hope you liked it please review
