Disclaimer: I don't own Glee or any of these characters… if I did, Karofsky wouldn't exist anymore, Jesse wouldn't have been such an asshole (albeit one I believe legitimately fell for Rachel), and there would be a LOT more Blaine.
A/n: Alright, a smut-free chapter!
It was Monday morning, which meant that it was officially Valentine's Day. And Kurt was more than a little annoyed with all of the red and pink that had cropped up around Dalton, seemingly overnight. It seemed as though everyone who had a significant other was busy talking about their plans for that night or busily calling around to find a florist or dinner reservations because they had completely forgotten about the holiday.
"I can't believe how Valentine's obsessed this school is… we don't even have any girls, and still everyone is running around obsessed with pink and hearts and lace…"
"Seriously, Kurt… it's just a holiday. Twelve hours from now it will be over, and the pink and hearts will be gone," Blaine assured him, wrapping an arm around the younger boy's waist. "Seriously, I don't understand why you're so against this holiday. You aren't single this year, and you know that I would gladly take you out tonight if you wanted me to."
"Seriously, I hope you don't have reservations or anything. Because I'm not cool with that idea since I told you I hate Valentine's Day," Kurt replied. He turned and glanced at Blaine.
"I may or may not have made reservations in case you changed your mind. But they can be cancelled easily enough if they exist. Of course, I could have made some other kind of plan that you wouldn't be expecting…"
"We just got back from a ridiculously romantic weekend on Lake Erie. Seriously, I hope you didn't plan something…"
"You'll find out later." Kurt groaned as Blaine winked at him before he wandered off down the hall, away from Kurt and towards his own class.
"You're infuriating, Blaine Anderson!" Kurt sighed when the boy ignored him, shaking his head and turning to head to class. Of course when he saw Wes and David, Kurt chose to see if they knew anything he didn't know. "Alright, I want details on what Blaine is planning for tonight. If he's told anyone, it's you two."
Kurt crossed his arms and gave Wes and David one of his signature looks, waiting to see if they would actually spill anything.
"We know nothing. Blaine said he was going to surprise you, and he didn't want to tell us because he knew you would ask," Wes replied.
"It's true. I've guessed everything I could think of, but he won't even tell me if I'm close to being right," David added. Kurt sighed. Of course his boyfriend would think of that and make sure that there was no way Kurt could find out what he was planning.
"You've got to be kidding me. He hasn't spilled any details to the two of you? You're his best friends…"
"I don't think it's anything big… he did say that you're not a fan of Valentine's Day."
"Although how you can not like a holiday that's all about that mushy romantic stuff you love is beyond me," Wes interrupted. David and Kurt both shot him a glare at the same time.
"But he wants to change that. I told him to take it slow, so I hope that he listened for his own sake."
"You're kind of scary when you get really pissed off. No offense…"
"None taken, Wes. And thanks David. I hope he listened, too."
Kurt looked up from his algebra book as he felt a presence standing in front of him. "Okay, so I can't actually completely ignore Valentine's Day even if you aren't a fan. But it's coffee and a ridiculous heart-shaped cookie, so it's not like I'm going overboard or anything," Blaine said. Kurt raised an eyebrow as the older boy sat down across from him and put one of the two paper cups down by his hand before pulling out two of the cookies he had mentioned.
"So is this the entire surprise you've been cooking up? Or do I need to be prepared for more of this insanity later this afternoon?" Kurt asked. He watched as Blaine smirked.
"That is one secret I will not divulge. You'll know by the time you go to bed tonight." Kurt sighed and shook his head, lifting up the non-fat mocha his boyfriend had brought him and taking a sip. "I promise I haven't planned anything ridiculous or over-the-top, okay? And I promise I will not make you do anything corny or traditional."
"You're lucky I haven't already hurt you for this. But I'll keep my mind open until after tonight is over," Kurt replied. He unwrapped the cellophane from around his cookie, shaking off as many of the red sprinkles as possible from the piece he broke off. It was good, but the sugar sprinkles were a little much; it was almost enough to send him into a sugar coma.
"Okay… so maybe these cookies were a little too sweet. I knew I should have gone with the chocolate."
"If it was dark chocolate, that definitely would have been the better option. Lots of antioxidants…" Kurt scowled slightly as Blaine laughed at his comment.
"Even on a day when you're supposed to eat sweets, you're concerned about being healthy."
"Of course I am. Do you know what too much sugar can do to your body?"
"Kurt, relax. It's cute." Kurt smiled slightly as he felt Blaine put a hand on top of his. "I wouldn't be dating you if I didn't like all of your little quirks." He wasn't completely expecting the older boy to lean over and plant a quick kiss on his lips. "So we should probably get started on homework. And I mean actually doing what our teachers assigned, not what we do when we tell Wes and David that we're too busy to hang out…"
Kurt couldn't help the slight giggle that escaped his lips and the blush that spread across his cheeks. Of course he knew what that meant…
"How did I know that you were going to turn that color when I said that?"
"Do you really have to bring things like that up in public?" Kurt asked.
"Yes, yes I do. You're cute when you blush." Kurt rolled his eyes as Blaine winked at him.
"Do not quote Angel Dumott Schunard to me." Kurt took another sip of his mocha and smiled.
"Is it really a quote if I mean what I'm saying?" Kurt shrugged, breaking off another bite of his cookie and eating it.
"I don't know. I guess not…" Kurt replied. "I should finish up this homework, just in case you really are planning something tonight. I'd like to be one of the few students that actually have their homework done tomorrow in class." He smiled as Blaine stood up and leaned over to press a kiss against his lips.
"I'll come by later. Love you."
"Love you too."
Kurt wasn't completely prepared to feel Blaine wrapping his arms around his waist from behind.
"What are you doing?"
"Well I debated blindfolding you and carrying you off for this particular surprise, but I decided that if I want to make you like Valentine's Day that probably wouldn't be a good idea," Blaine replied.
"You would be correct. And don't count on making me love Valentine's Day just because you make today special."
"I wouldn't even dream of it… I know it's going to take more than one date to make you enjoy this holiday. Which is why I'm hoping this is just the first of many, many really wonderful Valentine's Days we celebrate together."
"You're starting to get sappy…"
"Shutting up now. Put on your shoes and grab your coat."
"We're going outside?" Kurt asked.
"Sort of. Just get ready so we can get going already." Kurt sighed and did as he was told, grabbing a scarf and hat as well because it was starting to get dark. He threw an extra of each at Blaine.
"You should probably wear these, too… it's supposed to be pretty chilly tonight," Kurt replied. "Just please tell me you haven't invested money in fuzzy white teddy bears or a ton of flowers or something like that."
"I promise, nothing stereotypical. And I didn't spend a lot of money, I promise. This is low-key, I promise."
"I'm holding you to that one."
A/n: Mwahahah… what does Blaine have planned, exactly? You'll just have to wait and see…
