Wes followed Blaine with his eyes, and then rubbed his face. He had been tired of all Blaine's secrets, but now when he knew the truth he didn't know what to do with himself. Wes was confused. Sebastian knew about Blaine's pregnancy, but they weren't together anymore. He didn't have to ask why. Sebastian had always been an asshole. He was childish, irresponsible and unable of thinking straight when he was in panic. Wes knew him well.
He didn't even wait for Blaine to come out of the bathroom. Wes left his dorm hoping that he could find Sebastian in his room. He went through a long corridor, up the stairs and on the right. When he was finally in front of his door, he didn't even bother to knock. He just opened the door and peeked inside. Sebastian was sitting at his desk with a pen in his right hand.
Wes cleared his throat catching Sebastian's attention. He turned around, making Wes gasp in surprise. He didn't get to to see cocky, self-confident Sebastian Smythe in tears every day.
When Kurt returned to Dalton, he just wanted to go to his dorm and lie in his bed until the next day. He immediately changed his mind when he saw normally very calm and put-together Wes running up the stairs. Kurt considered for a brief moment just ignoring him, but he couldn't shake the feeling that it was about Blaine. Maybe he was hurt?
Kurt followed Wes upstairs and through a long corridor. When the dark-haired stopped in front of Sebastian's door, Kurt stopped dead in his trucks. Something was definitely wrong. Without knocking Wes stormed into his room leaving the door wide open. Kurt peeked inside couple of minutes later and saw very unusual scene...
''Do you know about Blaine's...secret?" Wes said calmly, even though Kurt knew he was furious.
Sebastian nodded, and only then Kurt noticed his puffy eyes. ''I don't know what to do, Wes. We're just teenagers. I'm not ready to be a father. I don't even want to have children. I-"
''You can't stop thinking about himself even for a moment, can you?" Wes asked crossing his arms over his chest. ''Blaine's alone. He doesn't know what to do either. Blaine needs you more than ever, Seb.''
''I'm scared..."
''Bullshit," Kurt stormed through the door surprising two other boys. Wes turned around to face him, but he didn't say anything. ''Stop being an ass. You're just afraid of taking the responsibility for your actions. You can just walk away, but Blaine can't.'' Sebastian was still in tears, but his eyes were different. He send Kurt a sharp look, but he ignored it. ''You don't have to be in a relationship with Blaine, you just have to support him.''
''You don't know a thing about me.'' Sebastian said coldly. ''Who do you think you are?'' He stood up and took a few steps forward. They were way too close for Kurt's liking. Then he surprised both Kurt and Wes laughing shortly. ''You're close to Blaine, aren't you? How can I know that you are so innocent? Maybe it's actually not my child? Maybe you're just so desperate and lonely that you can't keep your hands to yourself?''
Kurt didn't know what to say. Sebastian smirked. ''This is ridiculous." They both turned their attention to Wes. "Kurt, please don't get involved.''
''I already am.'' Kurt said sharply. ''Maybe I don't know Blaine as well as you do, but he's my friend as well. Couple of days ago he told me everything.'' It felt wrong to talk about Blaine like that, when he wasn't there, but Kurt couldn't let Sebastian be so careless and irresponsible anymore. He would rather just kick his ass, but he had to remind himself that it wasn't about him. It was about Blaine.
''Just get the hell out of here, Kurt!" Wes suddenly snapped. ''This is not about you. I know you...dislike Sebastian, but it's not the reason to mess with Blaine. He's alone, and you shouldn't be using him."
''What?" Kurt asked in disbelief. ''Do you seriously think that I'm Blaine's friend just because I want to get into his pants?" Kurt almost shouted. Wes was supposed to be on his side, they both wanted Blaine to be happy.
''Oh, come on, Kurt.'' Sebastian rolled his eyes. ''You can't fool me. These innocent smiles, big, vulnerable eyes. You look so innocent, but look can be deceptive, right? Everyone knows at this school that you have a big crush on Blaine. It's not a secret to anyone. There's just Blaine. Too cath up in his own problems to notice some poor, desperate kid wanting attention.''
Kurt couldn't control what he was doing anymore. He slapped Sebastian against his face.
Sebastian looked at Kurt in shock rubbing his slighty red cheek. He could still feel adrenalin buzzing though his vines, so he just smirked and turned to leave, but Wes grabbed his shoulder stopping him.
''What the hell are you doing?" He asked surprisingly calmly. ''Apoligize to him.''
''I'm sorry?"
''His dad is a lawyer. You don't want to have a personal meeting with him. Please just calm down and-" Wes couldn't finish his sentence, because in that moment Sebastian stepped between them, facing Kurt.
''Do not touch me ever again.'' He said. ''And stay away from Blaine if you know what's good for you. It's not your life.''
''It's not." Kurt agreed. ''But he's my friend and I care about him.'' He turned on his heel and left the room. He closed the door shut, and started walking down the hallway. He shouldn't have done that. He shouldn't have follow Wes there in the first place. He sighed as he noticed how empty the hallway was. It was 8 PM after all. Then he remembered all the events from the day. It all seemed so unimportant now. Kurt felt like he was in two different worlds at the same time. Blaine and his problems where in one world, and Luke was in another.
Kurt didn't know what to think of his date with Luke. He had been charming and talkative during the dinner and Kurt had liked it, but even though Luke was perfect and handsome, there was one problem with him. He wasn't Blaine. Kurt wrapped his arms around himself as he stopped in the middle of the hallway. Why couldn't he be happy for once in his life? Everything should be easier at Dalton. There was no bullies, no slushies to ruin his clothes, no real problems.
He felt like a bird in a golden cage. He had everything, but his best friends, loved ones weren't there. Everything seemed perfect from the outside, students were perfect, rich and with bright future ahead of them. But in reality they were just normal boys with their problems. Kurt was starting to realise that maybe Dalton wasn't a place for him. It felt good to be amongst these boys, but he didn't feel connected to this place.
There was just one person that would always make him choose Dalton over McKinley.
Blaine.
Kurt needed him too much to leave and he knew that Blaine also needed his support. Even if he wanted, he couldn't leave. That would be selfish.
Less than two minutes later Kurt found himself in front of Blaine's door. He didn't know why he was there, maybe just because he needed to see the dark-haired boy to remind him that he wasn't alone. He gently knocked against the door waiting for the other boy to open. When the door swung open and he saw Blaine's beautiful face, he immediately fell into his arms. It took him couple of seconds, but Blaine finally wrapped his arms around Kurt's waist rubbing his back up and down. Kurt immediately felt better.
They stayed like that for a while until Kurt realised that it was a little weird to hug a friend that long. He pulled away smiling softly at Blaine. ''Thanks. I really needed this hug.'' He said following Blaine to his dorm. They sat on the bed and only then he noticed how tired Blaine looked. Well, he wasn't that pale anymore, but something was off. Blaine leaned his back against the wall and looked down at his hands in his lap. Kurt sat cross-legged across from him and took his hand. ''What's wrong, Blaine?" He asked.
Blaine closed his eyes. ''I'm fine.''
''Don't lie to me, Blaine, please. You know that you can trust me.'' Kurt said hoping that Blaine wasn't hiding anything huge from him.
''It's really nothing.'' He said opening his eyes. ''It's just-, Wes knows and I am not quite sure what he thinks about it.''
What was he supposed to say to that? He didn't know if Blaine should know about his conversation with Wes and Sebastian. They had been...weird. Blaine took a bottle of water from his bedside table and took a sip. Kurt watched the dark haired boy as he put the bottle down and lied down on the bed. ''I miss sleeping in one bed with him.'' Blaine said quietly. ''I miss his arms around me and his hot breath on my cheek. I miss...everything. His gentle touch, soft kisses, touch of fingertips on my bare chest and just...his presence.''
Kurt's heart nearly broke. He wanted his friend to be happy once again. He wanted to see his wide grin. Surprising himself, Kurt lied down beside Blaine wrapping his arms around his waist from behind. He could feel that Blaine's muscles immediately loosened and he seemed calmer. They stayed like that for a couple of minutes leaning into the touch. ''If you're uncomfortable I will leave.''
''No, it's kind of nice.'' Blaine answered. ''Would you stay with me tonight?''
''Of course.'' Kurt said softly. ''What are friends for?''
