Time to talk to you guys about something important. Now, I love getting prompts. I adore them. But I need to say something about AU prompts. I'm all for them too, but I am struggling when I get a prompt that's going to take a long time to develop a relationship. Like, Kurt and Blaine meeting for the first time and leading to a first kiss. That's going to take a lot of development. I don't mind doing a few of these occasionally, but this is a story of oneshots. They're not meant to be thousands of words long. If you guys really want to see something in particular like that and you know it's going to be long, I'd request that you send me a message and ask if I can write a separate oneshot about it. I love writing so usually I'll agree, I'm just feeling pressure to put longer AU style oneshots in here and I think it'll take away from what this story is really about.

Also, if you guys ever see something in here and think 'I wonder how that continued after the kiss' or 'I wonder how that all began', feel free to message me and ask for a oneshot that gives more detail. A lot of the time I hate cutting stories off where I do and I could write all day, but I cut them off because again, this is a series of oneshots. I've already had someone ask for the origin of the road trips in my RoadTrip chapter and another person ask what drunken things Blaine said about the Warblers that Kurt alluded to in Fair and I'm looking forward to writing both :) so feel free to do that, but I do reserve the right to say no if I'm too overworked.

This comes from yeah. she sure is beautiful and similarly prompted by wynnie the pooh: it would be really awesome if Kurt and Blaine kissed in water, like at a water park or a water party somewhere.

Squee! This was also loosely prompted by 'Pink. Vampire. Skittle' except their version was slightly more ... *cough* erm, risque? Anyway, sorry to disappoint but I didn't make Kurt smoking hot... I mean, he is. But I didn't make the whole story about him taking his shirt off and Blaine jumping him. If I had, it would definitely be shorter and the rating would need to go up. Speaking of ratings, what do you guys think it should be on so far?

The water park is very very loosely based on Wet 'n' Wild in Australia.

Angela's back and she's editing again! She was only gone for one day... but I still missed her! She's my hyperactive buddy.. we've currently in the middle of A Very Potter Musical Quote-Off... it's totally awesome.

P.S. The second chapter of A Very Klaine Musical is on its way!


Water

"WE'RE HERE!"

Kurt winced, pulling a headphone out of his ear and switching off his music. Blaine took the other one and handed it back to him, rolling his neck to try and ease the tension before grinning at Kurt.

"Excited?"

Kurt raised an eyebrow. "No, not really. But I think there's enough excitement to go around." He waved a hand to where all the Warblers were eagerly scrambling off the bus, pushing each other to be the first off.

"It's a water park, Kurt! How can you not be excited?" Blaine was hopping up and down in his seat, waiting for Kurt to stand up as the bus cleared.

Kurt smiled at his overexcited boyfriend, still trying to get used to that word in his head. It was only three days since a nervous Blaine had come into his room and spilled out his heart, right in the middle of Kurt's essay. Ever since then, Kurt had worried about how he was supposed to act around a boyfriend Blaine but it appeared they would, for now, just be friends who held hands and hugged more often than normal. And Kurt was okay with that.

"It's just water, Blaine. 75% of the planet is made of it." Grabbing his bag, Kurt finally stood up, Blaine following suit. As they stepped off the bus and eyed up the almost-deserted water park, Kurt felt a stab of nervousness. He quickly hid it as his boyfriend took his hand, almost pulling him in.

"Look, Kurt, it's all ours!" Blaine spun in circles, looking at all the empty rides and Kurt couldn't help but laugh. David's request to his parents for his seventeenth birthday was to have the entire park to themselves for the day and somehow - Kurt didn't want to think how much something like this would cost - they had arranged it. Another quick talk (and probably another donation) to Dalton secured the use of one of their buses for the day and the entire Warbler group was off for a day of fun.

Well, fun for most.

"Come on, Kurt, let's put our stuff down and go get changed." Blaine was dragging him to the changing rooms and Kurt attempted to breathe calmly, knowing the inevitable was coming. They chucked their bags on the bench with the rest of the Warblers' stuff and Blaine grabbed the sunblock out before turning to Kurt.

"Hey, I'll need you to put this on my back - what's wrong, Kurt?"

Kurt snapped to attention and tried to smile, but Blaine had caught on to him. Putting the sunblock down, he stepped over and pulled Kurt into a hug. Kurt waited until his hands had stopped shaking then pulled away, sitting down on the bench, Blaine following suit.

"What is it? You're not scared of water are you? Because you could've told me, I wouldn't have made you come -"

"No, it's not that." Kurt sighed. "I guess you would have found out eventually." He reached for the bottom of his shirt, pulling it over his head and refusing to look at his boyfriend.

"Tell me about them?" Kurt looked up, surprised. Blaine's voice was so gentle and understanding that Kurt found himself sharing stories he never thought he'd have to bring up again.

"Most of them are from various dumpster tosses where somebody didn't judge it properly and I hit something sharp, or locker slams. This one here," Kurt pointed to a large scar running along his left side, "is from getting pushed into an open locker door. Azimo. And that," he gestured to his shoulder where a large faded mark was, "Karofsky. When he grabbed my shoulder and -" Kurt trailed off, ducking his head again.

Then he jumped because a set of fingers were gently tracing the scars along his chest. He looked at Blaine who was staring into his eyes intently. "You're beautiful, Kurt."

Kurt felt himself choke up slightly as Blaine ran his hand over his shoulder, then took it away and reached for his own shirt. Pulling it over his head, Kurt couldn't hide a gasp as Blaine's torso was revealed. "You too -?"

Blaine nodded, biting his lip slightly and Kurt knew he wasn't the only one who was insecure about his body. Stepping forward, he reached out hesitantly to touch the scar on Blaine's collarbone.

"Edge of a classroom door, four months before I left." Blaine answered his unspoken question before turning around to show the long thin scar that travelled halfway down his back, Kurt sucking in his breath at the sight of it. "And that was from the flight of stairs that prompted my transfer."

Blaine had told him the story of what had happened, but he had never seen proof of it. Kurt ran a hand down the scar, feeling Blaine shiver slightly at the contact before turning around again and taking Kurt's hands. "You're definitely not the only one. There are other boys out there who have come from bullying situations too. They've all got their own scars. Not all of them are physical scars - though you will see a few - but they know what it's like. Nobody's going to stare or say anything, I promise." He smiled at Kurt before it turned into a smirk. "Now, are you going to help me with my sunblock or not?"

Kurt swallowed, suddenly feeling his heart beating in his ears. "Um.. sure," he stammered out, grabbing the bottle as Blaine turned back around. He uncapped it and squirted a small amount onto his hands, hesitating slightly before touching Blaine's back.

Oh sweet Gaga, he's so warm!

Kurt felt Blaine tense slightly, then relax completely into his hands. They were both aware that this was the most skin-on-skin contact they had experienced in their relationship so far and Kurt desperately tried to keep his mind on the fact that it was innocent. But still, it was Blaine and his skin was so soft and -

"All done!" Kurt removed his hands from Blaine's back. As he grabbed the sunblock and rubbed it into the rest of his body, Kurt took a moment to cool off, not knowing that Blaine, still facing the other direction, was doing the same. He turned around and they smiled, breaking the tension quickly.

"Do you need yours done?" Blaine asked, and his hands were hovering so invitingly that Kurt was glad he hadn't done his sunblock before he left like normal. He nodded, turning around and then -

Oh. Oh. Wow.

Kurt didn't even know time had passed before Blaine's hands left his back. He realized his eyes had drifted shut and opened them quickly, turning around to catch a slightly flushed looking Blaine. Kurt cleared his throat and finished putting on his sunblock while Blaine busied himself grabbing their towels. "Shall we?" he gestured, holding an arm out to Kurt who rolled his eyes.

"Lead on, good sir!" Kurt took the arm with a flourish and the two wandered out of the change room.


Chaos.

"I never knew eighteen boys could make enough noise for a couple of hundred," Kurt said, staring at Wes and David fighting Nick and Thad in the water. The rest of the boys were off experiencing the rides and Kurt looked around trying to take it all in. There were five different thrill-seeker style hydroslides, a huge wave pool, as well as various other slides, games and pools, each of which were emitting the sounds of various Warblers screaming and yelling.

"That's the Warblers for you. So what's your favourite ride here?" Blaine was also surveying the park, wearing a pair of bright pink sunglasses that Kurt would usually abhor but on Blaine they looked surprisingly good.

"I've, uh, never been." Kurt admitted quietly. Somehow, Wes heard him through the noise and stopped dead, throwing David off his shoulders accidentally. Or possibly on purpose. Kurt wasn't sure.

"YOU'VE NEVER COME HERE, KURT?" The other boys all turned as one to stare at the now-embarassed Kurt who nodded quickly.

"Dude, you have to let us show you around!" Thad jumped off Nick's shoulders and ran over to Kurt, the rest following suit. "I know you and Blaine want to spend the day getting cuddly, and you can later, but for now let us give you the experience!"

Kurt raised an eyebrow at Thad's choice of words, then glanced at Blaine who shrugged. "Alright," he agreed. "Where to first?"

"THAT ONE!" Wes took off towards a giant orange and blue slide, the other three boys in hot pursuit. Kurt winced and looked at Blaine who was doing the same.

"They're exciteable but they mean well. Let's go before they break something."

Kurt agreed and they followed at a more sedate pace, catching the other boys at the bottom of the ride where Wes was, as per usual, dishing out instructions. "Now, we can either go in three groups of two or two groups of three or a group of four and a group of two -"

"That sounds excellent," Blaine cut in. "Why don't you guys go on ahead?"

Thad began to make a comment before Nick slapped a hand over his mouth and started dragging him up the stairs that Wes and David had already begun to scale. Kurt looked up at the ride, then at Blaine who was grabbing a tube. "Um, what do you actually do on this?"

Blaine smirked. "I'm not going to tell you, because otherwise you won't go on it. Just... trust me?"

Kurt sighed. "Don't I always? Let's go." Grabbing the other side of the tube, he helped Blaine lug it up the stairs to where the other four boys were just disappearing over the side. Blaine set the tube down and gestured to Kurt to hop in before slipping in beside him and wrapping an arm around him. Kurt copied the gesture so they were both holding onto the handrails and before Blaine could let go, Kurt got a glimpse of the giant cone-shaped slide they were about to enter.

"Blaine, I've got a bad feeling about this. I think maybe we should - AHHHH! BLAINE!"

"ISN'T THIS FUN!" Blaine was laughing as the tube spun around the cone, Kurt screaming his head off.

"I HATE YOU, BLAINE! I HATE YOU, BLAINE!" Kurt repeated his screamed mantra until they reached the bottom, coasting to a stop in the water where the others were waiting in hysterics.

"Come on, wasn't that fun?" Kurt sighed, looking at his boyfriend.

"Yes, it was. But I still hate you!"(1)

"Come on, guys, there's like a million more rides!" David grabbed Kurt's arm while Wes grabbed Blaine's, dragging them in a chain towards the rest of the rides. Kurt mentally sighed and prepared himself for a long day.


Thanks to the other boys, they experienced every single ride possible, even when Kurt threatened them with bodily harm if they made him do it. And, to his credit, Kurt could admit he had enjoyed nearly all of them. They had now stopped for a late lunch before the other four were going to head back to do all the rides again.

"Hey, what's say we skip out and go find something else to do?" Blaine whispered in Kurt's ear and his face lit up, nodding frantically.

"Oh, let's do that one again!" The boys had come to a consensus on which ride to do and were now grabbing their stuff and heading off. "Wait, aren't you guys coming?"

Blaine gave Wes a look and he quickly backed off. "Okay, well we'll see you later. Remember, the movie's showing in the wave pool at seven!"

The boys bolted towards the next ride and Kurt sighed in relief. "Thanks. They're great guys but I need a break."

"Same." Blaine smiled in that way that made Kurt's stomach flip, taking his hand gently. "Besides, I wanted to spend some time with you. We don't get enough of it at Dalton and I find myself missing you even when you're there."

"Blaine, that is possibly the cheesiest thing I've ever heard." But Kurt couldn't keep the smile off his face and he didn't really care. Blaine knew what to say to get to his heart.

"You know you love it. Anyway, what do you feel like doing? We've got an entire water park at our disposal, after all."

Kurt surveyed the park, looking for something to do. "Why don't we just swim for a bit?" he said, pointing to the standard pool that was currently empty. Blaine nodded in agreement and they headed over, dropping their towels beside it. Kurt was about to head to the stairs when he was suddenly reminded that he and Blaine were still holding hands. Forcibly. When Blaine jumped into the pool, dragging Kurt along with him.

"That was not fair!" Kurt yelped when he resurfaced. Blaine chuckled, pulling him across to the wall where they could sit together.

"Are you having fun?" Blaine asked and Kurt could see the hints of worry on his face which Kurt was quick to dispel.

"It's actually better than I thought it would be, and spending time with you has been wonderful of course." He smiled at Blaine, feeling his heart melt when Blaine smiled back.

"Good." Kurt felt Blaine's arm wrap around him and he rested his head on Blaine's shoulder in return, letting a comfortable silence drift around them broken only by the water lapping at their legs and the yells of various Warblers in the distance. Time flew by as they sat there, and Kurt's thoughts swirled around in his head, all coming back to Blaine. The relationship was going amazing so far and Kurt knew Blaine was holding back to make sure he was okay with the Karofsky thing before going any further physically. Kurt had done a lot of thinking over the past few days and had decided that he was ready. But how do I make the first move? His eye caught on the water and an idea sprung to mind.

"Come with me," he said, raising his head from Blaine's shoulder and gently pulling him out into the water. Blaine raised an eyebrow but followed him out a short way from the wall to where they were both treading water, the bottom of the pool just out of reach. Kurt turned to look at Blaine - his Blaine - before taking a deep breath and ducking under the water, gesturing for Blaine to do the same.

Underneath the surface, Blaine looked possibly even more adorable than usual with his hair floating around everywhere and cheeks slightly puffed out from holding his breath. Kurt pulled him into his arms, aware of the water slowing everything down in his actions, then plucked up all of his courage and leant in.

Kurt could now truthfully say that his first kiss was wet, but thankfully not because Blaine was crying or had no control over his tongue. He could feel Blaine's lips under his, slippery because of the water but still so beautiful. He wanted to deepen the kiss but knew under their current situation it wouldn't work, so he pulled Blaine up. They broke the surface, still kissing, Kurt pushing Blaine towards the wall where they could sit down again, and Kurt found himself on Blaine's lap without quite knowing how he got there but he didn't know anything apart from Blaine's lips and mouth and everything was intoxicating and wonderful.

Finally, they broke apart, Kurt reveling in the way Blaine's cheeks were flushed and his eyes half-glazed over, as if unsure that it really had happened. A moment later, he focused on Kurt who was still staring at him. He opened his mouth as if to speak but nothing came out.

"Did I break you, Blaine?" Kurt chuckled but the voice at the back of his mind suddenly piped up; what if he didn't like it?

"You - I - we -" Blaine shook his head helplessly and now Kurt was starting to freak out.

"I'm sorry, I thought you wanted it too, I - I should go -" Kurt moved to go but was stopped by Blaine's hands on his hips.

"You talk too much," Blaine growled - growled! - and leant in for another kiss. And now it was Kurt's turn to freeze before happily losing himself in the kiss, tangling his hands through Blaine's hair.

"KLAINE IN THE MAKING! Wes, you owe me $10!"

Kurt pulled away, sharing a look with Blaine before they both turned murderous glances on Nick who was being rapidly dragged away by Thad. Wes was mouthing apologies to them while David seemed unbothered. "We just came to let you know that dinner's all ready. Take your time though!" He went to say something else but Wes clapped a hand over his mouth and pulled him in the direction of the food.

"I suppose we'd better go, hadn't we?" Kurt said, making no indication of getting up.

"Probably," agreed Blaine, still staring at Kurt. "That was amazing, you know?"

"Yes, I do know. I was there." Kurt smirked at his boyfriend who was rolling his eyes. "But yes, it was. And we're definitely going to be doing more of that in the future, but for now the others are spreading rumors about what we're up to so we'd best go." This time he actually did move, reluctantly getting off Blaine's lap and hopping out of the pool. Blaine followed suit and they dried off before heading over to the barbeque that one of the crew members was working for them. Grabbing their food, they joined the rest of the Warblers sprawled around the lawn in the slowly setting sun. The boys finally looked close to tired out and so not much was said about Kurt and Blaine, which was just how they liked it.

Finally, everyone finished their food and headed over to the wave pool to watch the movie. Kurt and Blaine wandered along at the back of the group, arriving to find there was only one tube left. Blaine looked at Kurt for a second before smiling. "This gives me the chance to do this." He sat down in the tube then pulled Kurt into his lap, who squealed slightly then pretended he hadn't as he wrapped his arms around his boyfriend.

The movie showing that night was, per request of David, Star Wars. Neither Kurt or Blaine were huge fans, so while the rest of the boys had lightsaber fights and fell out of tubes, the two took the chance to cuddle and talk.

The night finally quietened down with most of the boys running out of steam and settling in to watch the movie. In the dark, Kurt looked at Blaine, barely able to make him out. He leant in to kiss him quickly before murmuring, "I love you," against his lips. He felt Blaine smile as he whispered "I love you too."


(1) This is what happened when I forced my friend onto this ride. It was freaking hilarious.

My fluff meter is off the chart for sappy endings lately. I also wasn't particularly comfortable with how this came out, it just seems a bit off to me. Angela agreed when she beta'd it, but we couldn't work out what it was. It didn't deter me enough not to publish, so there we go.

Oh and when Blaine rolled his neck, right at the start, did anyone else think of them backstage at Regionals? "I think it's adorable, I think you're adorable." I still literally squeal when I think of that moment because seriously? Cute to the max.
