This is just a short drabble, as realized haven't written much Kurtbastian future fics. This is set five years in the future and is AU after 5x20. Kurt and Sebastian bumped into each other in NYC after Kurt's engagement ended. They became friends then eventually lovers.

Kurt watched the clock, chewing on his lip as he stirred the pasta sauce in the saucer pan. He looked back down at his task at hand, trying not to worry. Sebastian was late once again, working himself too hard as usual.
Kurt often finished work at Five and would by home by Five Thirty, give or take. Sebastian would often be home about Six pm but the last few nights he had stayed later at the office to finish case work and wasn't home till six thirty, Seven pm at the latest.
On top of that he was constantly irritable, Kurt was being patient as he knew how stressed Sebastian could get when he had a massive work load. Kurt often felt the same, except they never let the stress take over at home, instead keeping issues to themselves till coaxed to spill it. Sebastian and Kurt would keep majority of work stress at work but sometimes it was hard to keep it away, even so just being with each other helped keep those worries buried.
But the last week or so, Sebastian was letting the stress take over more than usual and Kurt wasn't sure why. He hadn't pushed though, content on keeping it all normal and being patient with Sebastian and waiting till his boyfriend of five years would tell him what was bothering him.
They had different styles of talking about issues or things that bothered them. Kurt held things to the vest until he broke down and told Sebastian what was wrong or Sebastian could just give him a look and Kurt would spill. With Sebastian it took a bit more to get him to talk, he was stubborn more so than Kurt was and often needed to be pushed or left alone. Kurt knew when to approach Sebastian or when to let Sebastian approach him.
So many people thought they wouldn't work but well five years later and they were happy and in love. They had dated for two years before Sebastian asked Kurt to live with him. Sure they had their fights but they always talked it over and never let anything cause a big rift.
But the last week was more cause for concern, it was the longest Sebastian had kept what was bothering him so close to his chest. He often was spilling or confiding to Kurt after about a few days after grumbling at odd intervals about random things under his breath. More often than not, it was over an annoying co worker or his domineering boss. Kurt would fix it by cuddling Sebastian, who was a bigger cuddle whore then himself or he would blow Sebastian in the kitchen.
Except lately those tactics didn't seem to work, sure their sex life was as amazing then ever but Sebastian seemed to be more closed off then usual. He wasn't even coming to Kurt for cuddles anymore and that freaked Kurt out.
Kurt stopped stirring the sauce as he heard the lock turn and the door swung open revealing Sebastian, looking just as stressed as usual.
Kurt walked over and took Sebastian's brief case off him after kissing his cheek. Sebastian barely reacted, instead he took off his jacket before turning and walking straight to the fridge to grab his usual beer.
Kurt didn't let it faze him as usual, simply putting down the briefcase and walking back to the sauce on the stove. Sebastian leant against the counter, watching Kurt cook.
Kurt refused to let it bother him but after a while of feeling Sebastian's intense stare burning a hole into his back, he gave in and turned to face his boyfriend.
Kurt walked over and took the beer off Sebastian, closing the gap and wrapping his arms around his boyfriends shoulders. He felt Sebastian relax and sag into his embrace. "I wish you could just tell me what's wrong?" Kurt said before realizing his mistake, he was not supposed to push Sebastian.
Sebastian didn't reply, he pushed Kurt away and snatched his beer before storming off.
Kurt felt his heart drop into his stomach as a feeling of dread washed over him, he felt bile rise in his throat. How had he not seen this before, Sebastian wasn't stressed from work. He was sick of Kurt, he wasn't happy anymore.
Kurt turned mechanical as he turned off the stove, pushing the sauce pan onto the next element, feeling his body begin to shake as he stepped back, tears began to well in his eyes and a sob began to build up.
He slid down to the ground, placing a hand on his mouth, eyes wide as he tried to control himself but the longer Sebastian didn't return the harder it became. Kurt gave in, putting his head in his arms and sobbing loudly.
He barely noticed the foot steps till he felt a hand on his hair, stroking gently but it only made Kurt cry harder as this was the first contact Sebastian had given him in the last week. If he didn't count the blow job Sebastian had given him the other morning. Sebastian moved his hand down to Kurt's knees and squeezed.
Kurt took in shaky breaths before looking up at his boyfriend, his vision blurry.
Sebastian lifted his hand up and cupped his chin, Kurt nuzzled into it without a second thought and said what was on his mind before he could stop himself. "If you're going to dump me, can you get it over with. I don't need you giving me attention out of pity." he stammered. Seems he had a case of word vomit.
Kurt blinked, his vision clearing. Sebastian was looking intently at him, he also looked nervous.
"Well." Kurt snapped.
Sebastian shifted a little, looking down then back at Kurt before opening his mouth then quickly closing it, shaking his head.
Kurt suddenly became angry. "Look, stop making me suffer. Just do it already so I can pack and stay at Rachel's." he hissed.
Sebastian frowned, grabbing Kurt's hand and running his thumb over the ring finger. "Kurt, I." he said, his hand beginning to shake.
Kurt felt his anger weaken as he took in how nervous Sebastian was. "What." he managed.
Sebastian looked up at him. "Will you marry me." he blurted out before flushing, his face turning red.
Kurt felt his heart begin to race, his mouth working as all the panic from the thought of Sebastian leaving him began to melt away. He swallowed, looking into his boyfriends nervous eyes.
"I thought you were leaving me." he stammered, his own hand shaking. Sebastian squeezed it lightly.
He shock his head. "No, never. I just, I'm sorry for being an ass. I've never done this before and I got a ring last week then needed time to propose. But each time, I just panicked. I know you love me but the thought of asking and you rejecting me. It was too much to handle so I pushed you away till I could find the time to ask and I have so..will you?" Sebastian said, his eyes turning hopeful.
Kurt felt tears begin to form again. He let out a sob.
Sebastian's eyes widened and he turned panicked. "I knew it, I knew you didn't want to marry me." he spluttered, making a move to get up.
Kurt quickly grabbed his arm, holding him there. "No, I." he gasped out.
He quickly smiled. "I love you." he let out breathlessly.
Sebastian began to smile. "So is that a." he began.
"Yes." Kurt interrupted before moving forward and throwing his arms around an ecstatic Sebastian and kissing him on the lips before withdrawing and mumbling against them. "Yes, I will marry you."
Sebastian kissed him before pulling back. "Yah, I love you so much." he murmured, brushing his lips over Kurt's.
Kurt nuzzled into Sebastian before pulling back, frowning then hitting Sebastian's shoulder. Sebastian looked confused.
Kurt shock his head. "Don't ever freak me out again, please come to me. Tell me if you're upset. I don't want to ever feel like you want to leave me again." he said.
Sebastian nodded. "I know, I'm sorry. I won't do that again. I was just so nervous. I'm an ass." he said.
Kurt chuckled. "Yeah but you're mine though." he said.
Sebastian nodded. "Yeah, yours..hang on," he said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a ring box. "I didn't really do this properly, sorry."
Kurt shrugged. "When do we ever do things by the rule book." he joked.
Sebastian nodded before popping open the box, he moved his other hand and pulled the ring out before grabbing Kurt's hand and sliding it on.
Kurt swallowed thickly, lifting up his hand and admiring the ring. "It's beautiful, I can't wait to marry you." he said.
Sebastian smiled. "Me either babe, me either." he replied before leaning forward and kissing Kurt again.
