Characters: Blaine & Sebastian, Sam, Sugar, Mr. Motta, Kurt
Rating: M for a small amount of dirty talk and a rather intense argument.
Summary: Blaine and Sebastian spend a lovely day with both friends and family. Then they have dinner with Kurt.
Warning: I never hide the fact that most of my writing is Kurt Unfriendly. However, this chapter takes it to the next level. Just know that for this story's purposes I would have written any ex in this manner.
Note: There is a lot of dialogue here, but I tried to not constantly say "he said" or "she asked" by putting character's names in the actual sentences.
Saturday came, but Blaine had called Kurt the day before and asked if they could change their brunch to dinner. He had forgotten that family therapy was an hour later that usual and there were a couple of other things he needed to take care of. Both of them involved Sam.
"Sam, I'm really sorry about Brittany" Blaine told him.
"Yeah, I know. Me too. But, I went in knowing she was still in love with Santana" Sam admitted.
"I've got a suggestion. Why don't Killer and I cancel with Hummel, get you a fake ID and go to Scandals where you can really drown your sorrows. Tea from the Lima Bean is not going to do anything for you Sam."
Blaine smacked his boyfriend in the shoulder "We have discussed this Bas. Sam stays out of Scandals. Plus, we have to go to dinner with Kurt. Keep your friends close but your enemies closer, remember?"
"Why can't I go to…" Sam had another of his famous epiphanies "Oh, it's my lips. Right?"
"Sam, if we took you to Scandals you would be hit-on more than my heavy bag is when I am frustrated with my boyfriend." Blaine's hand slid underneath the table to squeeze Sebastian's upper thigh. There had been a lot of frustration that week. Sexual frustration.
"I get it" Sam chuckled "Santana named me Trouty Mouth for a reason. I'll be right back. I'm going to go get some more water for my tea."
The moment Sam was away from the table, Blaine tightened his grip on Sebastian's thigh and leaned over to speak into his ear "You were a very bad boy, Sebastian."
"Why? I don't understand."
"You know how horny I've been, yet you mentioned taking Sam to Scandals which got us talking about those big, beautiful lips of his. That started me thinking about the day of Sectionals when Sam told Kurt that we were both hot and that he would do either of us. Now, I would never actually do this, but all I can think of is Sam doing BOTH of us. At the same time. Would you like that?"
Without hesitation Sebastian answered "No."
"No?"
"No, I'm not sharing you with anyone. I don't care if they have the best blow job lips known to mankind."
The comment prompted Blaine to give his boyfriend a quick, sweet peck on his lips. Even with Sebastian's past innuendos and the games that the two of them play, Blaine knew that Sebastian just loved him. It was simple and easy, but also sexy as hell. Going to rescue that damn trophy was the best decision of his life.
"Will the two of you stop being so cutsey and loving? It's making my teeth hurt" Sam whined upon his return to the table.
Blaine leaned over and kissed Sebastian's cheek "No. Now, Brittany…"
Sam let out a groan "Can we talk about something else besides my love life, or lack there of? Like, what's going on with Wyatt and Toby and why haven't you taken them somewhere and beaten the shit out of them until they tell you who the leak is?"
"Because the only person Blaine likes to torture is me" Sebastian joked before leaning over and reciprocating the kiss on the cheek Blaine had given him. Sam didn't need to know how true that really was.
Blaine gave Sebastian an impressive eye roll in response to his comment "Since my birthday was in October, I am now 18 and could be tried as an adult for assault. It's one thing to fight within the confines of Fight Club, it's another to go up to a stranger and deck them."
"Have you figured out where you know them from?"
"No. They graduated, well dropped out, the year before I went to Westerville. I don't know, maybe I saw them hanging around the school? We're just lucky they were there long enough that it was too late to remove their pictures from the yearbook."
"So, what are you guys doing? You're at least having them watched or something like that. Oooh, did you have your Sugar's daddy find out about them. Wait, that didn't sound right."
Both Blaine and Sebastian attempted to keep their laughter down to a chuckle, but Blaine failed so Sebastian answered "No, we found out that both of them had been popped recently on possession with intent to sell. We then may have hypothetically asked a Dalton contact within the Franklin County DA's office to hypothetically search for any known associates tied to Dalton."
"Did they find anyone?"
"Yeah, Hunter Clarington."
"What?!" Sam slapped his hand over his mouth because he had said that much louder than he intended.
"We were shocked too" Blaine told him "But both you and Puck said that Toby and Wyatt said they got their Fight Club information from a Dalton graduate. Hunter's not a graduate. We're hoping that it's just a weird coincidence, but are keeping our eyes and ears open."
"Are you still going through with the plan to draw the leak out?"
Blaine glanced over at Sebastian and they both nodded. His Uncle Robert had strongly suggested that they keep Sam's knowledge to a minimum. Just enough for him to help with identifying Wyatt and Toby "As of now, yes. However, we won't get started until we have come back from break. Speaking of break, were you surprised when my parents invited you and your family to come to Aspen with us after Christmas?" Sam was not the only one that had been surprised since his parents had not told him that he had invited (and had paid for) the Evans family to join them at the family cabin.
"Are you kidding me? I couldn't believe it. My mom literally cries with happiness when we talk about the trip and Stevie won't shut up about learning to snowboard."
This time it was Sebastian squeezing Blaine's thigh, but this was a show of support. He knew that Blaine was about to do something he had hoped to avoid "That's great Sam, but I have another surprise. When you get there, someone else you know will be there as well."
"Sebastian, you're coming?"
"No, it's not Bas."
An hour later…
"Sugar is your what?!"
"I'm Blainey's cousin" Sugar told him "Are you ok?"
"I just need to sit down for a minute" Since they were in the Motta's kitchen, Sebastian pulled out a bar stool for Sam so he didn't fall. He was too busy staring at Blaine and Sugar to pay attention "How? I mean you look nothing alike."
Blaine put his arm around Sugar's waist and pulled her close. She was uneasy about someone in the New Directions knowing their secret "Our moms are sisters and you know I am basically my dad's clone."
"Why didn't you tell anyone?"
"It was my idea" Sugar explained "We moved here after my mom died..."
Blaine pulled her even closer and kissed the side of her head "It's ok, Sugary Sweet. I can tell Sam everything if you want me to." He knew that any mention of her mom still tended to shut her down even though it had been almost three years.
"No, it was my idea, I should explain it."
"Not to interrupt" but Sam did anyway and asked Blaine "Did she have anything with you coming to McKinley? It wasn't just for Kurt?"
"I had been leaning toward transferring for Kurt, but my parents would have never have signed off on that. Sugar's more of a sister to me than a cousin and they knew I wanted to be there for her in her new school. It just took a little while to get the transfer taken care of since I don't live in Lima. I wound up using this address on my transfer. It was just a coincidence that Uncle Robert bought a house that was in McKinley's district."
"I always wondered how they let you into McKinley since you didn't live in that district. Or city. Or half of the state" Sebastian chimed in but then realized that he and Sam had truly interrupted Sugar "Sorry, Sugar. Were you happy that Blaine was able to go to McKinley?"
"No, it's ok and I know what Blaine did for me. That's why I feel so guilty about…"
"Sugar, do you need to repeat the mantra?" She hated to say it, but it was a reminder that Blaine's depression was not her fault.
She stuck her tongue out at him as her response "Any way" she drawled out "I knew I was a bad singer, but I wanted to join the New Directions to make friends like Blainey did with the Warblers. I didn't think that I would be the only person in history to not be allowed in to a glee club that accepts everyone. Then the next day Blainey came and sang It's Not Unusual. Everyone loved it, loved him, even the people that Slushied glee club members."
All of the boys glanced around at each other knowing that there was probably a different reason behind Blaine's total acceptance.
"I still don't understand" Sam had seen videos of both Sugar's audition and Blaine's performance. Yes, they were at opposite ends of the "rate my performance" scale, but what did that have to do with them not telling anyone they were related?
"I know what people say about me, Sam. How daddy had to buy me a glee club. Can you imagine the teasing I would have gone through when people figured out that the worst singer in the world was cousins with the best? After Blainey helped me get better at harmonizing, I thought about telling everyone but we decided to wait until this year because I didn't like the people that graduated."
"Then why haven't you told anyone? Is it because Blaine went back to Dalton?"
"That would be because of me" Robert Motta entered the kitchen and held out his hand, but did not offer an explanation. "You must be Sebastian and Sam. Blaine has told me a lot about the two of you. I'm his Uncle Robert." Sebastian stepped forward to shake his hand, but Sam had to be nudged by Blaine. He wasn't afraid of the supposed mobster, quite the opposite. After everything he had heard he was actually having a bit of a fanboy moment. "Sugar, honey, can you give me and the boys some time. Why don't you go call Kitty and coordinate your wardrobe for tomorrow?"
"Ok, Daddy" She turned to Blaine and gave him a hug "Are you going to leave after you all talk?"
"Yes, but I'll see you and Kitty tomorrow at my house for the Christmas Cookie Bake."
"And you're going to be nice to Nick tomorrow, right Blainey?"
"No."
"What did Nick do?" Sam asked.
"He asked Sugar on a date without getting Blaine's permission" Sebastian laughed remembering the look on Nick's face when he realized that Blaine was serious. Not a wise decision to piss off a guy who lists beating the crap out of people as one of his hobbies.
"Hold up, Nick knew the two of you are cousins before I did?"
"Nick, Jeff and Thad. I told Nick and Jeff by accident after Nick made a comment about how cute Sugar was" Blaine practically growled "I told Thad because it was too hard not to since Sugar and Kitty are best friends and he's kind of dating Kitty. They just know the basics, but enough that Nick should have known better."
"Ok, I'm going to go call Kitty" Sugar said before turning to her cousin's boyfriend "Sebby, please make sure Blainey is nice to Nick."
"Not happening!" Blaine called out as she left.
Once she was gone, Sam had questions he wanted to ask "Ok, two things. First, Sebby?"
"Only Sugar, Evans. Don't even try."
"Got it. So Blaine, why the issues with Nick when Sugar dated Rory last year?"
Blaine grabbed Sebastian's hand before saying "I wasn't around last year when they started dating." It went unsaid that he was out due to eye surgery.
Mr. Motta changed subject rather quickly "Now Blaine, are you and Sebastian meeting with Kurt once you leave here?"
"We are. Why?"
"With the unknown connection between Congressman Hummel and Clarington and what happened at and after Sectionals, I can't help but think there is more going on than he's saying. Especially when he asked you to tell him what you and his dad discussed."
"And he's been acting strange" Sam added.
"How?"
"He's been a little too nice since he moved back from New York. Like creepy, serial killer before he cuts you up into pieces, nice."
The four of them became so entrenched in conversation that they didn't notice how late it had gotten. Blaine and Sebastian made it to the restaurant right on time and Kurt walked in a minute later. They were immediately escorted to their table and were able to hold a civil conversation throughout the meal. Of course the topics had been limited to the weather, holiday shopping, favorite Christmas movies and whether or not Blaine and Sebastian would be attending Rachel's New Year's party that she was throwing at her dads' house. It was the last topic that had the boys feeling uneasy. When it was discussed, they both understood why Sam had said what he said. Kurt really was being creepy, serial killer nice.
"Sorry Kurt, but B and I already have plans to attend Wes Montgomery's party." Sebastian was trying to be cordial. Trying being the operative word.
"But you're both friends with all of the New Directions, both old and new. Blaine, Sam is your best friend. Oh, but you will have already spent five days in Aspen with Sam and his entire family."
"And there it is. The true reason for this meal" Blaine had never told Kurt how wealthy his family actually was because Kurt was extremely…well, materialistic. He should have known when his dad gave Sam the truck that Kurt would start asking questions.
"I don't understand, Blaine. What reason?" Kurt asked with almost a sing-song tone to his voice.
Sebastian threw his napkin onto the table and pushed his chair back "Cut the crap Hummel. We knew coming into this that your whole Let's just be friends act was a fucking lie. So, either tell us what you want or we're out of here."
Kurt turned his attention to Blaine "Are you going to let him speak for you in that manner or are you going to speak up for yourself?"
"Oh, I can more than speak up for myself. I just didn't feel the need to repeat exactly what Bas said. So, if that is all we'll be on our way."
Sebastian had pulled out his credit card to pay the bill, he assumed that would be the case anyway, when both he and Blaine witnessed Kurt's entire demeanor change. The real Kurt had finally made an appearance. He folded his arms across his chest like he always did when his defenses went up "You want to talk, let's talk."
They all settled down when the waitress came to take the bill. However, Sebastian ordered them all coffee and dessert to give them an excuse to remain at the table. When she left to get the order, Blaine asked his ex "Does this have something to do with you saying that I owed you? What the fuck could I possibly have done to owe you anything?"
"You cheated on me, you broke up with me, you performed that stunt at Sectionals and then despite everything I had done you still wound up running to him." Kurt's voice dripped with disgust as he referred to Sebastian.
The conversation halted again when the waitress brought their coffee and dessert. This gave Blaine and Sebastian time to process what Kurt had said. By just a glimpse at each other, they could tell that each of them were concerned about the end of the statement. The rest was crazy talk.
"What did you do, Kurt?" Blaine asked the question because he could see Sebastian seething with anger. Perhaps it had not been the best idea to have this little tête-à-tête in such a public space.
Kurt's face made it look like he was searching for the right words to say until "Fine. It's not like anyone can do anything about it now. I couldn't believe it when Santana of all people figured out that what I did wasn't about the Slushie, but about I Want You Back."
"You are fucking kidding me!" Sebastian hissed, trying to keep his voice down "If you were so pissed why did you just sit there and look constipated?"
"I did not look constipated! I was in shock but looking back I don't know why. You rich, entitled Dalton bastards just take what you want and you wanted my boyfriend. I needed to find a way to stop you and the very next day the universe gave me the gift of the Slushie."
"I'm so glad to hear that my needing surgery was a gift to you."
"Oh Blaine, I'm not talking about your pain. I'm talking about how you stopped speaking to this asshole as well as the other Warblers. Also, I knew that the Meerkat would receive the punishment he so richly deserved."
Both Blaine and Sebastian were confused by Kurt's answer, but Sebastian understood what he meant first "You son of a bitch! You knew I had already gone to the Headmaster before you gave me the tape."
"Of course, I did" Kurt snickered, like it was the most obvious thing that ever happened "I wanted you expelled and sent back to Paris, but he said that since your dad was State's Attorney the only thing he could really do was suspend you and then put you on probation. It wasn't enough, especially since I was leaving for New York and Blaine would be back here in Ohio. I knew eventually you would be in contact again. That's why I went back to Dalton and we hatched the plan to give you a babysitter."
Blaine knew he had to do something quickly or he would spend the rest of the evening bailing his boyfriend out of jail. He reached down and grabbed Sebastian's crotch. That startled him enough to allow Blaine to speak "Oh my god, your father helped you get a known drug dealer admitted to Dalton just to keep me and Bas apart?"
"Really Blaine? My dad would never have anything to do with this. Why would you think that?" Kurt wanted to know, but Blaine wasn't about to tell him. He knew that the former Headmaster had had political aspirations, so he must have thought helping a Congressman's son would help further those goals. He was beyond stunned by what Kurt had said. This wasn't the Kurt he had known. Or was it and his depression had prevented him from seeing the truth. Blaine looked over at Sebastian and determined it was time to get him out of there.
"We are leaving Kurt, but don't think this conversation is over."
"But you need to stay so you can find out how you are going to make amends for what you two did to me."
"What we did to you? You made my life hell for months." Sebastian was talking again but unfortunately, he was loud enough to gain the attention of those around them "I am going to destroy you."
Kurt portrayed himself as the mannered one of the group and apologized for his friend "No, you are going to do exactly the opposite. It took a while for me to figure out what I wanted, then you gave me the answer, Sebastian."
"What fucking answer?"
"As you have probably guessed, I have done research on you but had never found anything that suggested you had a sister. However, at Sectionals you insisted that you have one named Sierra. Later that night I was talking to a friend from who said that he knew a designer at Dior named Sierra who had a brother named Sebastian. It didn't take long to verify that she was indeed your sister. My mistake had been that I had researched you only through your father's side. I never would have guessed mommy dearest would have had a little bundle of joy at only 17. It seems that with you Sebastian, the slutty apple doesn't fall far from the slutty tree."
If ever there was a time that Blaine appreciated how deceptively strong he was, it was now. He was able to grab Sebastian into a hug, preventing him from lunging across the table at Kurt "Kurt, I am totally disgusted at what you just said to Bas. Don't ever call me again. I won't be answering." Blaine stood up and tried to think of a way to block Sebastian from Kurt as they left.
"Oh, Blaine dear, why don't you sit down. We're not finished."
"Give me one good reason we should stay."
A smile came across Kurt's face. A creepy, serial killer before he cuts you into pieces, smile "I bet David could come up with 876,512 reasons."
Sebastian watched as Blaine's whole body froze "Killer, what's going on."
"That is the exact amount of money in David's scholarship account." Sebastian knew that actually meant that it was the money from the bets they took at Fight Club.
Kurt was giddy in his belief that his plan had worked perfectly. With that said, his anticipation for his next bombshell was palpable. "Scholarship account, that's a good one. Now, why don't you sit back down so we can finish our conversation…Wolverine."
Notes:
Sorry for the delay in posting. I have been working on my Seblaine Week stories.
I know there seems to be a lot to each chapter, but I try to divide them into three distinct sections. I'm pushing my writing in that these chapters are about 1000 words longer than my usual chapter fics.
As always, thank you for reading and comments are welcome.
