I'm so sorry about last night, everyone! I worked an afternoon shift and I couldn't get this uploaded before I left and then the internet refused to work when I got in at midnight and then hasn't worked for me all day. But it's finally stopped throwing tantrums so hopefully I can upload now!

And sorry about the video. The link was on there but the last save didn't work so of course it didn't upload. Here's the link to Angela's video: http : / www . youtube . com / watch ? v = L09CAuryVW4 (remove the spaces). Let her know your username in the comments, okay?

And yes, you will get two chapters tonight, assuming my internet cooperates.

Oh, and I'm about to hit a string of five consecutive night shifts starting tonight... so that means I'll get no writing done, I'll just come online to post and then crawl back to bed. So anybody waiting on chapters for my other stories, it won't be happening, sorry.

From Ehmber: could you do one where Blaine surprises Kurt in NY after Nationals, and kisses him then? Bonus points if no one knows they are together, as well.

I always take my bonus points!


Surprises

Quinn, Sam and Mike finally pulled Santana away, dragging her into the other room. The sound of Quinn's voice, talking soothingly could be heard before Sam re-emerged, closing the door behind him. Kurt looked over at Rachel who was close to tears, then glanced around at the rest of the room's occupants who looked stunned.

Finn stood, grabbing Rachel's hand. "We might just..."

"Yeah. That's fine, guys," Kurt said, the rest of the teenagers nodding. Finn and Rachel ducked out of the room, clearly wanting some alone time to discuss the latest development in their relationship.

Mercedes spoke up from where she was sitting next to Sam. "So, what do we all think?"

Kurt shrugged. "Disappointed, yes, but we can't blame Finn and Rachel. They're cut up enough, and Jesse's going to have a go at Finn."

"I think Santana's reaction was a bit over the top," Tina chimed in. "In the end, we all worked hard on those songs, and we had fun."

There were nods all around. Brittany stood, heading into the room where Quinn and the boys still were, Artie following behind. Mike slipped out the door a moment later, cuddling up on the bed next to Tina. Kurt looked around, smiling softly. Puck and Lauren were in the corner, sitting closer than Kurt had ever seen them. And, if he wasn't mistaken, so were Sam and Mercedes - something he'd need to discuss with his friend later.

Sitting back in his seat, Kurt sighed quietly. Of course he had his own boyfriend, but Blaine was back in Westerville and he hadn't seen him in a few days. They'd had one last coffee date where they had tossed up the idea of Blaine seeing him off at the airport, but Kurt had eventually decided against it. After all, the New Directions group didn't actually know they were dating yet...

It wasn't that Kurt was ashamed of Blaine, nothing of the sort. He just knew what the drama was like with New Directions and he knew if he admitted he was in a relationship, he would almost certainly get Blaine caught up in it as well. The guys would take it upon themselves to interrogate and threaten him, the girls would constantly want to double date. Kurt wasn't adverse to the latter, but he enjoyed having his time with Blaine to himself. But it was just times like this that he really wanted to be able to curl up with his own boyfriend in a group like this. Kurt decided that once they were back in Lima and the whole thing had blown over, he would get Blaine out to McKinley and tell the group that they were dating. Preferably just before summer break, so there would still be plenty of time for him and Blaine to be alone together.

Just as he had made the decision, there was a knock at the door and the group looked around at each other.

"None of us would knock, and Mr. Schue isn't going to be back until 5... did someone order room service?"

Mercedes jumped to her feet, being the closest to the door. "If they did, I want it!" she exclaimed, pulling open the door.

There was absolute silence, then; "Blaine?"

Kurt was on his feet straight away as Mercedes stepped aside to reveal his boyfriend standing in the doorway. "Surprise?"

Kurt shook his head, closing the distance between then and pulling Blaine into a hug. "What are you doing here?"

Blaine pulled away, holding onto Kurt's arms gently. "Well I was hoping to come and congratulate you, but I heard that's not the case. I'm really sorry, guys." He directed his last sentence to the rest of the room who all nodded or mumbled their thanks.

Kurt was still not comprehending. "You... you flew to New York?"

"My parents have a lot of frequent flyer points. They didn't mind." Blaine was staring at him and Kurt could see the unspoken statement in his eyes. And I wanted to be with you.

Kurt smiled, ducking his head. "It's really good to see you, Blaine." There were soft murmurings coming from the occupants of the room, and Kurt knew they were talking about them. Leaning in a little closer, Kurt whispered so only Blaine could hear him, "I think it's time they found out about us."

"I like that idea," Blaine breathed back. And their faces were so close and if he wanted to, all Kurt needed to do was lean in -

"Um, Blaine?"

Kurt sighed, moving away from Blaine and turning to see the rest of the room's occupants staring at them. "Not to be rude, but why did you come to New York? I mean, I get that you and Kurt are friends but the rest of us don't exactly know you... and we beat you at Regionals."

Blaine nodded. "I know that... Mike, right?" The Asian boy nodded, and Blaine continued. "Anyway, I came for Kurt. I know he got pretty upset when the Warblers lost at Regionals and I wanted to make sure he was doing okay."

Mercedes was smiling knowingly, and Kurt caught her eye briefly before nodding. Her smile grew wider and she leant over to whisper something in Sam's ear. Kurt turned back to Blaine who was still watching him. "I'm glad you came," he said quietly.

Blaine took his hands again, and now the murmurs broke out again. "Me too."

And this time, nobody was going to interrupt them as Kurt leant in, gently pressing his lips against Blaine's. They ignored the gasps echoing around the room, the sound of the other door opening, Puck and Santana's suggestive exclamations - all of it became background noise as they lost themselves in the kiss.

Finally, Kurt broke away, staring into Blaine's eyes for a few seconds. "Wow," he murmured quietly.

"Yeah."

"That's what we were thinking!"

Kurt chuckled, keeping one hand linked with Blaine's as he turned to take in the occupants of the room. The three couples were all smiling at them from their original positions. Santana and Quinn were hanging out of the doorway with Artie having entered the room. Santana was winking suggestively while the other two just looked shocked. "When did this happen?" Quinn asked.

Blaine glanced at Kurt before replying. "We got together just before Regionals."

Mercedes's jaw dropped. "Why didn't you tell us?"

Kurt shrugged. "You're learning now." He felt Blaine's arm slip around his waist and leant into his boyfriend happily. "But since it seems to bother you - everybody, this is Blaine Anderson, lead soloist of the Warblers and my boyfriend."

The smile on Blaine's face was absolutely perfect.
