I don't own Glee. Warning this chapter has some sweet boy on boy kisses.
After Finn cornered Kurt and asked him what he should buy Blaine and Carole for Christmas he rushed off to the Mall. Carole and Burt stuck around for another half an hour before telling the boys to have fun and that they would see them soon.
"How is soon a unit of measure?" Kurt wonder aloud as Carole closed the door.
"The same way anon is?" Blaine shrugged.
"You are too smart for your own good Mr Anderson."
Blaine stood up and walked towards Kurt "You're too sexy for your own good."
Kurt gulped down air; he still wasn't used to Blaine thinking he was sexy. Sure sexiness is subjective but you would have to be pretty subjective to think that one Kurt Hummel was sexy – at least in Kurt's opinion.
"You are Kurt" Blaine added as though he could hear Kurt's thoughts. "So" Blaine ran his finger down the front of Kurt's shirt "what do you want to do? Ya know we have the house to ourselves."
Kurt grabbed Blaine's hand and dragged him upstairs.
Jeff was all alone at Dalton, granted his Aunt was driving from Dayton but still, there was something depressing about Dalton when nobody else was around. Jeff loved his Aunt, he was a lot like her and she was so understanding and loving but a part of him still wanted his parents to call him and say "sorry we're homophobic assholes we miss you come home for Christmas." It never happened, it hadn't for the last 3 years and every year Jeff got a little less hopeful, clutched onto his phone a little less tightly. As if it had known Jeff was thinking about it his phone began to ring.
"Hey Nicky." Jeff flopped on his bed.
"Jeffy, I miss you."
Jeff chuckled "you saw me last night."
"I know"
Jeff could almost hear the pout down the phone line.
"But I still miss you."
Jeff sighed a little more audibly then he intended "I miss you too."
"You're still coming to my house on the 29th right?"
"Sure am, I can't wait, say hi to your family for me."
"I will. Oh and Jeff?"
"Hmmm."
"I ah…I can't wait either."
Jeff smiled as he hung up and dropped his phone by his side. "I love you."
Jumping off his bed Jeff checked that he had packed everything he would need for the holiday before jumping back onto his bed and taking a nap "nothing kills time like a nice nap." He chuckled at the fact that he was talking to himself before drifting off to sleep.
Kurt's room was clean as always Blaine wasn't sure why he thought it would be otherwise you were in here last night Blaine. He reminded himself.
"Blaine are you okay? You seem a little nervous."
"Ah yeah. It's just" Blaine stopped and turned to Kurt.
"We're alone. There's no one in the whole house and…"
"Hey relax."
"All we are going to hang out up here and maybe if you're lucky kiss a little bit."
"Really?" Blaine perked up a little.
"Uh-huh. Did you really think we'd do more?"
Blaine ran his hand through his hair "I thought you might want to, I mean I am ready for some stuff but not to go all the way."
Kurt sat down on the bed and patted the space next to him "I'm not ready for that yet either. I mean I don't know what I am ready for."
Blaine could see that Kurt was getting worked up.
"I don't want you to think I am a prude or anything Blaine."
"I don't think that, at all."
Kurt looked down at his fingers "You said you love me."
"I did, I do. Kurt" Blaine shifted closer to him "I didn't say it to get into your pants. I said because it's true. Granted one day I would love to get into your pants" Blaine allowed his eyes to rake over Kurt "but when we're both ready."
Kurt wrapped his arms around Blaine's neck "You are amazing you know that right?"
"So I've been told."
"And so modest" Kurt rolled his eyes.
"So do you think you're ready to try a little more than kissing?"
Kurt nodded his head a little.
Nick was glad to be home, he loved Dalton and his friends there but he missed his family terribly. He had always been so close to his Mum and Dad. He'd missed Chicago, there were great boarding schools that Nick could have attended closer to home but Nick's Dad had attended Dalton and Nick had always wanted to go there. Nick smiled as he saw his Dad waiting for him at baggage claim.
"Hey Nick" His Dad Ryan and hugged his son.
"Hi Dad. It's great to ne home."
"It's great to have you home." Ryan draped his arm around Nick's shoulder as they walked to baggage claim. "Still haven't grown I see."
"Clearly I take after Mum in that department. How is she anyway?"
"She's good, can't wait to see you. It's been my Nick this, and my Nick that for the last few days."
Nick rolled his eyes playfully. "What can I say, I'm her favourite child."
"You're our only child Nick."
They both laughed. The ride back to the Duval residence was one full of laughter and Nick telling his Dad all about his classes at Dalton.
"So you don't regret going there?" Ryan chance a look at his son.
"No, I miss you and Mum a lot but Dalton is great, The Warblers are great."
"One Warbler in particular." Ryan chuckled as he saw his son's face go red. "Aw my little Nickel is all grown up."
"Dad, did you know that you called me that so much growing up that when I was six I thought it was my real name?"
"Who said it isn't?"
"I've seen my birth certificate Dad."
The banter continued as the two Duval men drove down the highway and through the streets to their house. Nick couldn't help but laugh when he saw his mother's smiling face poking through the curtain. Less than thirty seconds later Kara Duval came running out toward the car. Nick smiled broadly as the car came to a stop.
"Mum!" Nick ran over to his Mum and hugged her tightly.
"Sweetie how are you?" Kara kissed her son on the head. "Have you grown?"
Ryan began to laugh and Nick shot his Dad a dirty look.
"So Nickel" Kara walked her son into the house "how is Jeff?"
Nick couldn't help but smile "he's great, well he's okay. He gets a bit down at Christmas time, because of his parents but we're good, we're great."
"Oh sweetie I am so happy for you." Kara poured three coffees and placed one in front of both of her favourite men.
"So when's Jeff joining us?" Ryan took a sip of his coffee.
"The 29th." Nick sighed.
"Ah young love" Kara winked at her son.
At that moment Nick's phone began to blast "Hi Jeff."
"N-Nicky?" Jeff sniffed.
"Jeff, what's wrong?"
"I-I I have nowhere to go for Christmas Nicky."
"What happened sweetie?"
Jeff took a deep uneven breath.
Kurt and Blaine lay facing each other on Kurt's bed the sound of the music playing in the background sounded light years away as Kurt lightly bit Blaine's bottom lip. Blaine's hands found their way underneath Kurt's shirt and his fingers lightly danced on the skin on Kurt's back. "You're so beautiful" Blaine whispered as he kissed Kurt's neck. Kurt's grip on Blaine's shoulders tightened.
"B-Blaine, I love you."
Blaine stopped and looked into his boyfriend's eyes "I love you too baby."
"Kiss me?" Kurt's eye's fluttered closed as a searing kiss fell on his lips. Kurt's hands slid down to Blaine's waist and his fingers pulled out Blaine's shirt. Before he really registered what he was doing those same fingers pulled up the hem of Blaine's shirt. Once Blaine's shirt was off Kurt rolled them so he straddled Blaine. He felt his brain short circuiting as he tried to take in Blaine's beauty. Gently Kurt ran his fingers over Blaine's chest and abs. His eyes never leaving the bare skin.
A sharp intake of breath from Blaine pulled Kurt out of is reverie "Sorry" Kurt whispered smiling sheepishly.
Blaine shook his head "No is good." Blaine grabbed Kurt's hands "Kurt I want to see you' can you take your shirt off? Please I just need to."
"Ssshhh." Kurt reached down and quickly unbuttoned his shirt and placed it on the bed. Staring at Blaine he then removed his under shirt.
Blaine's eyes were wide.
Oh god, he hates what he sees. Kurt looked away and slowly moved to fold his arms around himself.
"You're so beautiful Kurt. Go I just can't believe that you're with me."
Kurt smiled and leaned forward to kiss the boy he loved. Their chests met which sent both boys into overdrive. Hands flew and kisses became urgent and more passionate. Blaine traced his fingers down Kurt's chest as he nipped at his neck. Kurt shimmed a little further down Blaine's body and began to suck on his collar bone.
"Oh god" Blaine's eyes rolled into the back of his head. Kurt smiled against his skin and continued to lick, suck and kiss him. Slowly Blaine moved his hands down the grab Kurt's butt. Kurt gasped and bit down a little harder on Blaine's skin. Both boys gasped as their groins connected. Kurt rolled his hips toward Blaine's once again. "Kuuurt, oh my god, oh my god."
"Shit Blaine" he gasped "We-we-we have to stop" Kurt kissed the other side of Blaine's collar bone.
Blaine chuckled "you can't say that and keep going."
"I know, we have to stop but it's it's so…"
"Fucking amazing. Kurt, I love you, I love you, I love you."
"I love you too baby." With one more kiss on Blaine's lips Kurt reluctantly slid off him and snuggled into his side.
"I amm officially brain dead." Blaine mumbled. "We didn't go too far did we? I mean you weren't freaked out."
"No" Kurt's fingers ran last patterns on Blaine's chest. "I just knew that if we kept going it would get harder and harder to stop."
"Well something is harder." Blaine smirked.
"Oh my god Blaine! Way to ruin the moment."
Blaine chuckled "I love you?"
Kurt said nothing and leaned over to set his alarm to go off in an hour. "I like this whole shirtless thing."
Blaine lifted his head and kissed Kurt's chest. "Me too."
"Jeff, what's wrong?"
"I-I I have nowhere to go for Christmas Nicky."
"What happened sweetie?"
Jeff took a deep uneven breath. "My aunt called me; her boss rang her and said they want her to fly to Los Angeles to meet with some potential buyers."
"What?" Nick began pacing "when did you find that out?'
"About forty-five minutes before she called me, she tried to convince them otherwise but… Nicky what am I going to do?"
"Hang on baby, stay on the phone okay?"
"Mum and Dad, Nicky's Aunt has been called to work for Christmas, he has nowhere to go."
Kara grabbed the phone "Jeff, sweetie it's Kara."
"Hi Mrs Duval." Jeff sniffed.
"Hi Sweetie, call me Kara remember?"
"Kara"
"Alright honey pack a bag, you're coming here for Christmas. I'll hand you back to Nick he'll talk to you while Ryan and I sort it out."
"Thanks Mum" Nick took the phone back "Sweetie?"
"I-I can't ruin your Christmas."
Nick chuckled softly "You being here will make my Christmas better. Besides my parents love you and Dad's already on the phone to the airlines.
"I can't afford a ticket to your house. My Aunt was going to buy my original ticket."
"Don't worry about it Jeffy, we've got it all sorted.
Jeff cried a little harder "th-thank you Nicky. How will I ever repay you guys?"
"Well you can cook your amazing chocolate cake for my Mum and Dad and I'll take a hug and a kiss as payment." Nick smiled as he heard Jeff's laugh ring through the phone.
"It's a deal."
"Great. Log into your email. Dad's booked your flight from Delaware at 2pm alright."
Jeff heard typing from the other end of the line.
"I just sent it through to you."
Jeff clicked on the email and smiled as he saw Nick's message 'Yay I get to see you soon, can't wait." Jeff quickly scanned the ticket making sure it had correct times and dates. Before printing.
"Thank you Nicky, thank your family for me. I have to go and re-pack. I'll see you in a few hours."
"Okay baby, go pack bye." Nick hung up the phone and smiled at his parents before hugging them fiercely "thank you so much."
"You're welcome sweetie. Now how about you help me set up the guest room?"
Nick smiled at his Mum and ran up the stairs to the guest room.
"I'll take that as a yes" Kara chuckled.
Jeff couldn't believe it; he just couldn't believe it; Nick and his family were officially the best people the world. His heart had broken when his Aunt Jasmine had called with the bad news, she sounded so upset, so guilty. Jeff had explained that he didn't blame her and he didn't but it still hurt. No one wanted him for Christmas. Jeff shook the negative thoughts out of his head. Nick want him. He had to re-pack; turning on his stereo he turned it up and began to dance around his room and back "BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!" He yelled as he danced to his closet.
Kurt's alarm pulled him out of the most amazing dream of him and Blaine singing together in the kitchen while they made cookies. He smiled as he turned the alarm off.
"Mmm Kurt you're nice and warm." Blaine snuggled closer to him.
Kurt couldn't help but let out a chuckle "You are so cute when you're sleepy."
"No" Blaine pouted proving Kurt's point.
"Do we have to get up?"
"Yes"
"But whhhhy! No one is home, it's Christmas Eve eve and I want to snuggle.
"You could have snuggled for an hour Blaine but you decided to fall asleep instead."
"So did you."
"Well there is only so long I can talk to myself before it gets boring." Kurt kissed Blaine on the forehead. "Half an hour of snuggles and then we have to get up."
"Yay" Blaine mumbled as he moved closer. "Love snuggles."
"Love you." Kurt added.
Half an hour turned into forty-five minutes which neither boy was too upset about. The boys untangled themselves from each other and went downstairs to play a game of boggle, basically Kurt didn't want his Dad to thin that all they had done was make out all afternoon.
"We took a nap too." Blaine offered it didn't help.
Jeff made it to the airport in plenty of time (he was always early if he could be.) "Better to be half an hour early than 5 minutes late Jeffrey." His Grandma had always said. He missed her, he was pretty sure that she knew he was gay. Jeff was certain that she wouldn't have minded. She kept telling him to find someone that he loved, now that he thought about it she never mentioned gender to him, it was never "find a girl that you love."
Heading to the coffee shop at the airport he ordered a tall hot chocolate to get him in the Christmas spirit. Not that it would be hard; he got to spend Christmas and New Years with Nick. He smiled at the thought. Christmas with Nicky, could live get any better.
Daydreaming seemed to take up a lot of Jeff's time and before he knew it the time had come to board his flight. Having never flown before Jeff made sure he listened to the safety instructions that the flight attendant demonstrated and to count the number for rows until the nearest exit. As the plan took of he dug his fingers into the arm rest wishing that Nick was there to comfort him. Nick had always said that Jeff would love flying but Jeff was beginning to think that his boyfriend was a big fat liar.
A brunette with beautiful green eyes came and stood next to Jeff's seat. "Are you okay sir?"
Jeff shook his head "It's my first time flying."
"Oh, do you have any music with you?" Jeff nodded "alright just pop your head phones on and relax I will come and tell you when we get to Chicago."
Jeff smiled weakly at the flight attendant and stuffed his ear plugs in his ears turning the music up to the level of obnoxiously loud, usually he would care and today he didn't. He had to laugh when he realised that he was squirming in his seat. Trying to dance while sitting down in a plane is not an easy task.
It turned out the flight wasn't that bad. Jeff would even go so far as to say that he kind of enjoyed it. Damn you Nick for being right. Finally the plane taxied to the gate and the passengers were allowed to disembark. Jeff made for the door not wanting to spend more time waiting until he got to see Nick.
Nick was pacing, his mother was simply smiling at him as she realised how much her son reminded him of Ryan in that moment.
"Nick, please stop pacing sweetie."
Nick looked at his Mum "sorry" he mumbled before he continued to pace. Once Nick realised that Jeff's flight had landed he stopped pacing "He's here." A beautiful smile swept over his face "Jeff's here."
Kara's heart swelled with pride, clearly her son was smitten with Jeff. Nick had stopped pacing and had changed to bouncing on the balls of his feet. Kara would have laughed it Nick didn't look so anxious. "What if he missed his flight, what if he freaked out on the plane?"
"Nick" Kara placed a hand on her son's shoulder "I am sure he would have text you if he missed the flight and the flight attendants are more than qualified to assist anyone who is anxious about flying."
"I know, I know. I just feel bad about leaving Jeff in the first place. I should have insisted he come back with me."
"Oh sweetie, it's okay. He is here now and that is all that matters."
"Jeff"
"Yes Jeff"
Nick shook his head "No Mum, Jeff" Nick pointed to the blonde. "Jeff!" Nick jumped up and down and waved his arms "Jeff over here!"
Jeff swore he heard his name, swore black and blue, would almost bet on it. Well he wouldn't because his Dad had a gambling problem but you get the idea. Jeff looked around frantically trying to find the source of the voice he was sure was Nick's. Jeff stopped and smiled as he saw the source of the sound. Calmly he walked over to Nick but inside he was anything but calm. It had only been a day since they had seen each other but for Jeff it had been one hell of a day that and he was terrified about what Nick's parents would think of him. "Hey Nick" he smiled at his boyfriend who stepped over to him place one hand on either side of his face and kissed him. Jeff was a little shocked and took a few seconds to respond to the kiss.
Before he could get too enthusiastic Nick pulled back "Hi."
Jeff giggled "hi."
"I'm so glad you're here."
"Me too" Jeff smiled kissing Nick's cheek.
Grabbing Jeff's hand Nick lead him to his Mum "Mum this is my boyfriend Jeff, Jeff this is my Mum."
"Jeff sweetie it's so good to see you again." Kara hugged the taller boy.
"You too Kara, thanks for having me."
"You are so welcome."
"Let's get you home." Nick wrapped a protective arm around Jeff's waist.
"Sounds great."
Nick pulled Jeff's luggage behind him as he guided Jeff to the car. Both boys jumped in the back and Nick automatically sat in the middle seat so he was next to Jeff. Sighing Jeff lay his head on Nick's shoulder. "I flew in a plane" Jeff mumbled.
Nick stroked his hand "how was it?"
"A little scary at first but once we got up in the air I really liked it."
"Hmm I'm glad. Jeff baby, can I ask you something?"
"Always."
Nick frowned a little, trying to think of the right words to say "Why did you wait so long to call me about your Aunt?"
Jeff flinched at the thought "I, um" Jeff looked out the window "I didn't want to bother you, I-I thought that maybe you'd want to spend some alone time with your parents." Jeff cuddled closer to Nick "Besides we spend so much time together I thought maybe you'd like some time apart."
"Jeff, I always want to spend time with you okay? Never think that I don't."
"I'm sorry."
Nick shook his head "it's okay. You called me and now you're here." He placed his lips next to Jeff's ear "it's our first Christmas together."
Jeff managed to stay awake all the way to the Duval's house. Lugging Jeff's suit case upstairs Nick showed him to the guest room "this is where you'll be sleeping." The guest room had blue wall paper a beautiful queen sized bed a set of drawers and an en suite.
"It's really nice. Where's your room?"
"I'll show you." Nick marched across the hall. His room was painted red. Figures Jeff thought he's obsessed with red. In the corner was a keyboard and one wall was full of photos of Nick and this parents and the Warblers and of course Jeff. The bed was huge as was the closet and a small desk sat opposite the key board.
"It's so you." Jeff smiled.
"That a good thing right."
Jeff nodded.
"You hungry?"
"No but I could use a coffee."
Nick kissed Jeff chastely and headed downstairs to make beverages. When he returned Jeff was curled up on his bed. Silently Nick placed the drinks on his bedside table and crawled into the bed next to Jeff. "Sweet dreams baby."
I know I said this would be the Christmas chapter but Jeff kept telling me that this had to happen. Christmas up next (I promise because I am currently writing it.) Please review.
