Saying that the party Mercedes was throwing is amazing, is truly an understatement. Kurt was sitting in Blaine's lap drinking something out of a red cup.
"My friends! Let's play a game here!" Mercedes said.
They all sat down in a circle on the ground. "Never have I ever, if you lose 5 fingers you drink a shot. The one who stays in the game the longest is most definitely the loser."
Kurt felt ashamed of how quickly his fingers were going down. They were only playing for like 10 minutes and Kurt was already almost on his first shot. He looked at Blaine who was giggling with something someone said. Kurt hadn't actually taken the effort to learn any names. Blaine still had 9 fingers up and Kurt recalls that the statement that took his first finger was something like: Never have I ever flown to Europe.
He's so innocent, it's cute. While Kurt had to awkwardly put a finger down when someone said: Never have I ever had sex on my parents bed. Blaine didn't say anything but Kurt felt his eyes on him.
"Omg Kurt, I'm going to be the loser!" Blaine said looking around the circle of people. He had a slight lisp. Kurt had never seen his best friend like this before. Totally relaxed with no cares at all. "It really looks like you will." Kurt said.
"Never have I ever spent the night sleeping by the toilet." A tall lad at the other side said. Kurt sighed. "Ah fuck." He said lowering his left hand. "Oh British isn't such a prude as he looks like." A sassy looking girl said. Kurt laughed. "I'm not British but thanks." Someone rolled a bottle of vodka his way and Kurt poured himself a drink.
"Okay let's make a bet. If I manage to drink a shot before you finish then um…..you um…have to cook for me for a month." Blaine said. Kurt nodded. "Okay, but if I finish first. Then…then we'll leave Dalton and go to McKinley instead." Kurt said back. Blaine nodded. He held out his pinky. Kurt curled his around it and looked in his eyes for a longer time than he should.
The music was loud, the company was fun, the alcohol started hitting Kurt's head and before he knew it he was drinking his second shot. "Ej Blainey, looks like we're going to McKinley right?" Kurt said.
There was also 1 other boy at Mercedes' party that Kurt had thought to be handsome and had studied all night. After the game ended Kurt decided to take a shot.
He stood up and walked towards him. "Hey, I'm Kurt." He said sitting down. The boy looked even more drunk that he already was. His eyes were blue, his hair was brown and a little wavy and Kurt was already looking forward to being able to mess it up.
"Hi, Evan." He said. Kurt nodded. "You're also not very innocent I've seen." Evan said. Kurt blushed. "neither are you." Kurt said back. "I'm gonna get myself a drink, you want me to get you something?" Evan asked. Kurt nodded. "Whatever you are getting."
Evan left and Kurt watched his butt when he walked away. "Kurt, Kurt. Come on we have to leave." Blaine then said. Kurt shook his head. "Blaine, no! I was going to kiss him and you know, maybe more." Kurt said.
"Come on, Kurt. My dad's here." Blaine said. Kurt shook his head. He got up and went towards Evan was standing. "Okay, I have to leave. But I first need to do this." He placed his lips on Evan's and quickly started using his tongue. He stopped and saw that he left the other boy breathless. "Don't worry, I'm not looking for a relationship."
Kurt then said walking towards Blaine who was watching him with open mouth. Mercedes was standing next to Blaine and Kurt hugged her tight. "Thank you 'cedes and I'll see you soon."
"You just kissed him like that?" Blaine asked in disbelieve when they were walking outside. "Yes, it's was just a kiss, please don't look like that."
"It's just. I would never kiss someone out of the blue, someone I don't even know." Blaine said. "Well the difference between you and me is that I do have kissed a boy before in my life. Can you say the same?" Kurt said. "Wow sorry I'm not a slut going around kissing people like that."
Kurt shook his head and entered Blaine's dad his car. "That was low Blaine."
The next day
Blaine was sitting on the couch with his head hurting so much that he couldn't think properly. Kurt came downstairs looking like he ever did. He looked like he slept 12 hours and drank a cup of milk with honey before he went to bed. Which he most definitely didn't do.
"Oh, it can hurt sometimes." Kurt said sitting down next to Blaine rubbing his shoulder. "I'm sorry about what I said yesterday when we left. I-"
"Oh don't feel guilty, you were drunk." Kurt said. "Oh, please. Yes, but I was jealous I guess. I mean, I have only dreamt about kissing another boy and I've been to parties but I'm not one of the guys who would just go and get what he wants like that. Not like you did, just walking up to that guy with the confidence that he wouldn't be offended. He wouldn't turn you down."
Kurt laughed. "I'm fine with kissing people because I've done it before many times, and I knew that guy wouldn't be turning me down because he had been looking at me all night and when I was talking to him he was flirting. I mean, I could kiss you now but I won't because I know you don't want me to." Kurt said.
Blaine shook his head. "Yeah, you're right. I don't want you to." It took him a lot of effort to make that sound fake. He had been thinking about kissing Kurt last night but he is still not sure if that was because of the alcohol or not.
"Okay, I'm happy we're over that. I hope you won't judge me like that the next time I kiss someone when I'm drunk." Kurt said. Blaine just blushed and shook his head. Making him wince at the fast movement of his head.
"You're not used to drink, are you?" Kurt asked. Blaine sighed. "I'm not, how are you feeling this well?" Blaine asked. Kurt laughed at that. "Oh my dear friend, I am European." Kurt said.
"Oh by the way, are we seriously going to McKinley. I know we said we would. But like I seriously actually want to go now." Kurt said.
Blaine shrugged. "I mean, why not? It's easier to go there from my house so my parents won't mind. But I have to warn you. Public school is very though here in America." Blaine said. Kurt laughed at that. "Oh Blaine, I'm pretty sure that my skin is thicker than whatever some pubescent boys can say to me."
"Okay, then. Let's go to McKinley." Blaine said. "Now excuse me, I need to be in a dark room." Blaine said getting up. Kurt smiled as Blaine wobbled away.
2 weeks later
They were packing the last of their belongings at their Dalton dorm room on a sunny Saturday afternoon. It was weird for Blaine to do this. He has been here for almost 3 years and now he has to leave for a few months. It's not that he'll stay at McKinley when Kurt leaves to go back to Denmark. He also doesn't know why he does this.
Of course he does this for Kurt, living without him almost seems impossible by now. But what is he going to do when Kurt goes back to Denmark? Then he'll have to go back to Dalton anyway.
But Blaine has said yes to Kurt now, so he's not going to back out.
"You do hoard on a lot of stuff without knowing it." Kurt said sorting through his bedside drawer and taking out a used tissue and throwing it in the trash.
"You are quite right." Blaine said. Taping close a box of his textbooks and picking it up to place it next to the door.
"I just don't believe I am moving out of here." Blaine said. He had collected all his clothes and put them in the first suitcase he found. "Yeah, for you it's different. You've been here for 3 years."
"All my friends are here, leaving actually sounds like a stupid idea right now." Blaine said.
"We'll make new friends. Sometimes you have to change something good for it to become something better." Kurt said while folding clothes in his suitcase. "That's very well said, Kurt." Blaine said. He threw a pair of shoes in his suitcase.
"You are right though, it'll be alright at McKinley. I'll see my parents more often and it's gonna be easier for me." Blaine said.
"Of course it's gonna be alright. You'll have me." Kurt said jokingly. But it was a very serious reassurance to Blaine."
Kurt folded his last blazer when a knock came from their open dorm door. "Hey guys." Nick said. Jeff was standing next to him.
"Hi guys." Blaine said putting one of his last boxes on top of the pile. "We wanted to say goodbye." Jeff said. Kurt looked at Nick who looked at all they stuff. He looked like he was about to cry. "Oh Nick." Jeff then said. He took hold of his boyfriend's side. Kurt closed his suitcase and went over to the couple. They were normally not very cuddly around other people so Kurt could only imagine how hard Nick must have it right now. Nick saw Kurt standing in front of him and hugged him very tightly.
"oh Nicky." Kurt just said. Blaine then stood next to him and Nick went from Kurt to Blaine immediately. "I'm so sorry guys. I just. You guys are such a big thing in my life and I didn't even realise how much I would miss you once you would leave. I'm also doing it now, because I thought it would be less painful. But, I'm wrong. Okay. Thank you for being my friends, my brothers and have good life. Please don't leave me out of the dark and invite me to your wedding." Nick said. He kissed both their cheeks and he disappeared.
Jeff looked at his boyfriend leaving. "Okay, he's having a hard time. Goodbye guys may you have a good life." Jeff said hugging them goodbye before running behind Nick.
Both Kurt and Blaine were left very speechless. "god bless him." Kurt said then after looking at the empty doorway for a while. Blaine nodded and started collecting the last of his belongings.
