Interruption
Curt and Riker were hanging out with the rest of the Lynch family one afternoon, after filming one of the scenes from the next season of Glee. Ross and Rocky were playing video games in the corner whilst managing to devour an entire tub of RedVines, Rydel was busy on her computer talking to her friends, and Ryland was finishing some homework on the small coffee table in the centre of the room. All the while Curt was listening to Riker play the guitar and singing along to all the songs he knew.
Suddenly Curt's phone went off, penetrating the comfortable atmosphere that had settled between the six. Pulling his phone out of his pocket, Curt attempted to conceal a sigh as he noticed who was calling him.
Muttering a quick apology to Riker with a small smile, he disappeared down the hall into the room that Rocky shared with Riker. "Hey Kim." Curt uttered with a sigh, as he settled himself down onto one of the beds.
Ever since Curt had become closer to his fellow Warbler actors both on and off set, they had both grown apart, and Curt wasn't sure whether he was even in love with Kimberley to begin with. There was someone he loved more, of that he was certain.
"Curt, we need to talk." Kimberley's voice sounded from over the phone. Without giving Curt a chance to comment, she continued. "I know that you've made friends with some of the people you work with and that's great, but you're always with them and I don't like it. It's as though you're always putting me second which isn't right. Also, whenever we are together, you keep talking about that blond one-"
"Riker. His name is Riker." Curt interrupted tersely.
"Whatever, the point is Curt, you've been acting differently around me lately and I want to know the truth. Do you even love me anymore?"
Startled by the abrupt question, Curt took a minute to think it through. There were hundreds of thoughts flitting through his head, so fast that he was struggling to keep up.
Did he still love Kim?
The answer came to him so quickly, he gasped. "No." he breathed into the phone's receiver.
"Okay." Kim said, sounding as though she had already known the answer to begin with. "Curt, I think we should break this off. You don't love me and, in all honesty, I don't really love you. I think we should end, well, us, and move on with our lives." Noticing the silence from the other end of the phone, she was about to continue when Curt responded.
"Yeah, I-I agree. Kim, I'm so sorry."
"No Curt, it's okay, I understand. You're in love with him."
"W-what?" Curt stuttered, shell-shocked by her observation.
"Riker. You're in love with him. It's kind of obvious in the way you talk about him. I've got to go, I'm sorry Curt, but I'm glad we sorted this out." Apologising once more, she hung up the phone.
Walking back into the living room, stunned by what had just happened, he paused by the door frame trying to calm himself before returning to the blonde's side.
However, Riker had already noticed Curt standing there and was already making his way towards him, concern visible throughout his features. Grabbing Curt's hand he pulled him back into the room Curt had been in just moments before and sitting down next to him on Rocky's bed.
"What happened?" Riker asked, placing a comforting arm around his friend's shoulders to try and give him support.
"Kim. S-she broke up with me." Curt responded so quietly that Riker had to strain to hear the words, shock clearly present as the brunette spoke.
"God, Curt, that's awful! Are you okay?" Pulling Curt tighter towards him, relishing in the warmth that the smaller boy gave off, he let Curt respond.
"Yeah I'm fine. Just…Shocked I guess. I know it sounds insensitive but I've been meaning to breath things off with her for a while but just haven't had the courage to do it." Smirking slightly at his best friend's choice of words, Riker turned so that he was facing the other boy.
Staring into those hazel eyes, Curt realised that he was more in love with Riker than he had ever been with anyone else. Gathering up as much strength as possible, Curt knew that it was time to tell Riker the truth. He deserved to know.
"The reason why I wanted to break up with her was because I'm in love with someone else." Curt said, pleased when his voice didn't tremble because of the nerves that appeared to be taking control of his body.
Hearing those words Riker felt his heart drop, yet he still felt a slight glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe, Curt reciprocated his feelings.
He couldn't believe he was doing this. Taking a deep breath Curt composed himself, ignoring the internal screams telling him that Riker would never love him back, he said the words that he had wanted to say for months. "I'm in love with you Riker Lynch, and I understand if you don't want to be friends with me anymore, but I just had to tell you how I feel and-"
Curt was suddenly interrupted by lips crashing down upon his own, gasping with shock, trying to register what was happening. Riker was kissing him. RIKER was kissing HIM.
Getting over his initial shock, Curt began kissing back. He couldn't believe this was happening, but he would've been lying if he said that he wanted it to stop, putting as much passion into the kiss he could muster and revelling in the feel of Riker's flushed lips pressed against his own. There was something so unique about this one kiss, something so different from every other kiss he had shared with another person, Curt had never been more in love with the platinum blond haired boy than in that moment.
Not too soon afterwards the both broke apart panting heavily. Foreheads rested together, staring intently into the other's eyes as though they held all the world's secrets, Riker uttered the words that Curt had only ever dreamed of hearing.
"I love you too." With those four words, the two were connected once more, kissing hungrily, never wanting the moment to end.
All of a sudden they heard a loud cough coming from the doorway, causing the two boys to leap apart, blushing profusely, and both suddenly finding the bedroom floor extremely interesting.
There stood all four of the Lynch children looking at the two boys on the bed with amused expressions. "I would prefer it if you wouldn't make out on my bed, thank you very much." Rocky said, struggling to contain a grin as he looked at the two beet-red men staring intently at the ground.
"S-sorry." Curt and Riker muttered, still extremely embarrassed.
"So…" Rydel began drawing out the words, "Are you two together now?" She asked, a smirk playing at the corner of her lips.
"Uh…" Both Riker and Curt said in unison, turning to face each other in search of an answer.
"Yes?" Curt phrased the answer as a question, awaiting Riker's consent.
'Always the gentleman', Riker thought with a smirk, before turning back to face Curt entirely.
"Yes." He said more firmly.
With that they both collided once more in a passionate kiss, never having felt so certain of anything in their lives other than having one another to cherish and to just love for the rest of their lives.
"I love you." Riker muttered against Curt's lips once again as they broke away from the kiss, still remaining close.
"And I love you."
I hope you liked it :) Please reveiw if you can \o/
