Waking Up

2009

Kurt held Blaine's hand and never let his eyes leave Blaine's face as Sebastian entered the room. He didn't want to acknowledge Sebastian or have him anywhere near him, or Blaine. He wanted to be alone with him. He wanted to be back in 2014 where none of this had ever happened and doctors weren't whispering behind the backs of Blaine's parents.

He wanted everyone in the room, the hospital, and the country to know that Blaine was his. And he belonged by his side. Much more than Sebastian Smyte ever could. He wanted these things but the reality seemed to differ.

Sebastian spoke to Kurt, or maybe it was Blaine he spoke to, but Kurt ignored his words and pushed them beyond his own thoughts. He thought of all the memories he'd had with Blaine. Many of those memories were beginning to fade from his mind even as he thought of them.

This is my punishment. Kurt thought, For ever doubting that Blaine and I belonged together... This is what I get... my life with him could be gone forever.

The doctors wouldn't say Blaine was going to be fine and Kurt had experienced enough hospitals to know what that meant for Blaine's odds.

"Do you hear me?!" Sebastian snapped, prodding Kurt in the back of the shoulder so that he'd give him the attention Sebastian so clearly required.

"What?" Kurt asked in a tone that answered Sebastian's question for him.

"This is your fault!" Sebastian snapped bitterly. When Kurt looked up finally, he noticed that Sebastian's regularly styled hair had been pulled into multiple directions and his cheeks were puffed and strained as if he were about to cry. "If you hadn't told him to dump me, he wouldn't have been anywhere near that truck. He'd have been home like he should be now!"

Sebastian turned and swung his arm at Kurt, punching him hard in the jaw. Kurt rocked back a moment but felt too numb to feel anything. He wasn't angry, or shocked, confused, or annoyed. He just wanted to watch Blaine until Blaine woke up.

"You're really something, Kurt." He could tell by the tone in Sebastian's voice, this wasn't a compliment.

"Go away, Sebastian." Kurt groaned in annoyance. "I don't have the energy for this."

"This is your fault." Sebastian snapped, disregarding Kurt's request. Kurt honestly didn't feel like Sebastian was wrong. This was his fault. He hadn't met Blaine when he was supposed to. He'd not made a priority of Blaine until it was too late. Then he'd practically thrown himself at him. He knew Blaine better than anyone. He was willing to dive head first into a love he felt was worthy. He gave all of himself to the people he loved. Kurt hadn't stopped him, either. He hadn't given any sign that they should move slowly. Obviously, Kurt should have known that something would go wrong... that something would happen to Blaine because of Kurt's inability to settle himself. He should have done it all again. He should have given them a chance to make it to the end together. Now they may never.

"You're right." Kurt decided.

"What was that?" Sebastian demanded.

"You're right." Kurt repeated. "This is my fault." He shouldn't have had to work so hard to impress me, Kurt thought, I didn't need any of this. I knew I loved him. I should have let him know he had me. I should have found him sooner rather than later. Given us more time, not less.

Sebastian stared at him for a paralyzed moment, trying to understand the trick.

Before he could respond, Blaine's mother entered the room.

"The doctors need to see him now. You can wait in the waiting room." She said somberly.

Without saying anything, Sebastian and Kurt walked outside and into the waiting room. Kurt sat but Sebastian continued to pace.

"That's not going to make anything any better." Kurt mumbled.

"What will?!" Sebastian demanded.

Kurt looked up curiously, then. He'd never taken into consideration- -but why would he- -that Sebastian might actually, genuinely care about Blaine. His willingness to cheat on him made it difficult to imagine he would, but he had no obligation to be at the hospital anxiously waiting with the rest of them. In fact, it would probably be rather awkward since Blaine's father gave Sebastian a hard glare every time he passed.

Kurt had texted his dad explaining where he was, and Burt seemed to understand.

"Not that." Kurt answered.

"Here, boys." They turned to Blaine's mother who watched them both carefully She had two salads and two forks in her hands. They accepted them willingly. "There wasn't much else."

"Thank you." Kurt said before starting to eat.

They ate in silence then sat tediously until a nurse came out of Blaine's room. Everyone in the waiting area rose. "He is awake. You may see him but... He hasn't stabled yet. Take this time as an opportunity."

Although she danced cleverly around the meaning in her words, their meaning was devastatingly clear.

Blaine's mom, dad, and brother raced into the room. Kurt and Sebastian both knew better than to interrupt the small family moment. They sat silently once more watching the door. When it seemed like Sebastian was going to disregard the etiquette of the situation by barging into the room to see Blaine, Kurt stood and got in his path.

"What do you think you're doing?" Kurt demanded.

"Something you are too scared to try." Sebastian spat bitterly, but paused when he realized Kurt was in his way. Sebastian still held the food container and the fork in his hands. It wasn't a plastic fork like one generally got at the hospital cafeteria or with take out which made Kurt think that maybe Cooper had been getting things to make the family more comfortable while at home. "What if he dies in there? What if we never get a chance to see him again because they took too long!?"

That hit Kurt harder than he wanted to show Sebastian. His heart, which he'd so carefully sheltered from feeling what they were going through, broke instantly at his words. He felt every crack and tear as if it were in slow motion but managed to not break down. He'd had more practice than Sebastian, and especially the 2009 Kurt whose body he stood in.

"If he dies," Kurt wasn't sure if his voice broke or if it only felt like it did. "Then his family has the right to see him last." He said it, but he wasn't sure how much he meant it. Blaine was his family. They were engaged... supposed to be married. Supposed to spend everyday together for the rest of their lives. They weren't supposed to end like this.

"You don't know what you're saying." Sebastian decided pushing Kurt out of his way. Kurt pushed against him which resulted in the fork cut across Kurt's forearms leaving two small cuts on each arm. Kurt looked down a little shocked but returned his glance quickly to Sebastian who he shoved back with more force than was probably necessary.

"Leave them alone!" He demanded. The door behind him opened then, and he turned to see the family leaving Blaine's room. Cooper had tears in his eyes, so did his mother. His father looked sickly pale and wore an expression Kurt couldn't decipher.

"He wishes to see you." Blaine's father said to Kurt before turning and walking down the hallway alone. His wife called for him but he didn't respond.

Kurt sucked in a hard breath which felt heavy enough to drag him through the floors. He walked as fast as he could, which might have only been one step every few seconds, into Blaine's room.

Blaine's eyes were closed when he finally entered the room and Kurt felt a momentary pang of fear. Then Blaine opened his eyes to look at Kurt who instantly relaxed.

"My mom says you're probably going to sleep here." Blaine said. His voice wasn't as strong as it usually was, but it also wasn't weak.

"I am." Kurt nodded with certainty. He hadn't put an actual thought to it before, but now that it was in the air, he knew it was probably true. Kurt couldn't have left if he wanted to.

Kurt made it to the bed and took a seat in the small chair he'd sat in before. He put a hand on Blaine's and felt his entire body fill with electric currents.

"I'm so sorry, Blaine." Kurt stated, letting his face fall onto one of Blaine's legs and finally letting tears fall from his face. Blaine responded by putting his free hand into Kurt's hair.

"Why?" Blaine sounded almost amused. Kurt didn't need to look up to imagine his facial expression. "I was the one not looking at the road."

"None of this should have happened like this. We shouldn't be here. We shouldn't-"

"Kurt. you can't control what's going to happen. And you can't predict the future."

"I could." Kurt stated and Blaine replied with a pained laugh. Kurt looked up then with bloodshot, tear filled eyes. "I could, Blaine."

"Could you?" He didn't sound convinced.

"Yes." Kurt nodded, "It's my fault we're here. That this happened to you. I shouldn't have let anything change."

Blaine looked curious now, "What changed?"

Kurt shook his head then and asked, "What did the doctors say?"

Blaine's face became a little somber but he answered with very little hesitation. "It's a good thing I woke up. Apparently I had a couple seizures last night and they were ready to pull the plug." Kurt felt as if his heart had shattered once more. Blaine attempted to sit up to comfort him but couldn't force much to move other than his arms. "But I'm awake now, so they don't have to worry about that anymore."

He sounded optimistic but Kurt couldn't be. "What else did they say?" His parents and brother hand't been crying because everything was looking good.

Blaine hesitated then for a moment, worried he would upset Kurt more but Kurt gave him a hard glare that told Blaine that keeping him out wouldn't make the situation any better. "I have a busted lung. I don't need an iron lung or anything, and it's not the doctors main concern. A few other things are damaged but they should heal." Kurt forced his face to remain neutral "I'm hemorrhaging. And they said they are going to put me back to sleep to better control my condition... I said I wanted to see you first."

"Where is the hemorrhage?" Kurt asked.

"It doesn't matter."

"Blaine." Kurt begged through an almost locked jaw.

"Tell me about your fortune telling abilities." Blaine insisted with a small smile.

Kurt hesitated but shook his head. "You'll think I'm crazy."

"Better crazy than boring. Tell me."

"I'm not Kurt." Kurt mumbled. Blaine raised an eyebrow at him then. "Well, I am, but not this one." Blaine watched him quietly but didn't interject. Kurt took a deep breath and added, "We're... engaged." He said the word slowly as if giving himself time to change it if Blaine showed the wrong response.

"Sure." Blaine shrugged. "I'd rather marry before I died anyways. We might have to go to Canada to do it legally, though... I think they have a better medical plan anyways."

Kurt smiled for a brief moment and it lifted Blaine's spirit a lot. Then Kurt turned more serious again.

"We aren't engaged yet. In the future. We're engaged." Kurt explained. "I'm from 2014. I don't know how I got here. I don't know if this is some kind of dream, but it feels too real and has gone on too long in too much detail. I am not sure it is."

"So in 2014, we're engaged." Blaine nodded a little looking lost in thought. Then he shrugged again and smiled, "So I survive this."

"This never happened, Blaine!" Kurt snapped. "None of this happened! You've never been in a fender-bender, let alone a hospital bed!"

"How can you say you're from the future if you say the present never happened?" Blaine didn't seem confused by his own words and Kurt was too lost in his own head to care exactly what was said.

"I screwed this all up. When I woke up in my old body, I screwed everything up." Kurt explained and continued before Blaine could contradict, "We should have met on the Dalton staircase, months before we ever did. Sebastian shouldn't be here until next year, and you said nothing was every going on between the two of you but now I really want to yell at you for that one." Blaine made a slightly surprised face, blinked a few times, but silently allowed Kurt to continue. "But, in your defense, given the chance you did choose me even when you didn't have to and that means a lot to me. We certainly didn't have sex so fast. You can thank my experience level and my love for you for that one, the first time I made you wait until senior year." Blaine blinked again in surprise before allowing a small growing smile to appear on his face. "By the way, I knew Cooper was your brother when you, me, and Sebastian were talking about it. Honestly, before I knew I would have been in the exact boat Sebastian was. But I met him when he picked you up from McKinley, not when he brought me here to see you." Kurt ignored the look on Blaine's face. He couldn't tell if it was love, appreciation, or sadness on his face and he didn't want to know. "When I got here, I didn't take any of this seriously, Blaine. I wasn't even completely sure it was real. I didn't- -I don't know how I got here. I was so lost and scared and I know now that meant I should have just found you sooner, not later. I am so sorry, Blaine, because none of this should have happened like this. Everything I did should have been to make us better and stronger, not just ignore everything we had in the beginning."

Blaine was quiet for a moment, then he asked, "Did you propose to me or did I propose to you?"

Kurt smiled a little, feeling a small pull of relief but not allowing himself to get too excited just yet, "You proposed to me."

"How'd I do that?"

"You got all of the glee clubs in the area to meet at Dalton and preform for me, and you asked me in the staircase."

"Did you like it?"

"Honestly..." Kurt hesitated. "I... loved it... but after... I was a little worried that you getting so many people involved was your way of forcing me to say yes."

"Would you not have?" Blaine asked curiously.

"I... don't know."

Blaine took the deepest breath he could manage and asked, "Did you not want to marry me?"

"Blaine..." Kurt hesitated and felt his eyes start to water again. He understood why he could talk to this Blaine more honestly than his own. This one didn't have the emotional attachment to be truly hurt by anything Kurt could say. "I have never wanted anything more than how much I want to spend my entire life as your husband. I am so sorry if I ever made you feel like that was not the case. I'm sorry for every doubting you, and for ever letting you feel like you were losing me. I'm so sorry this happened, Blaine."

Blaine watched him for a moment, curiously. Then he said, "Did I like cronuts in the future?"

Kurt laughed once, "Yes, you did."

"What school do I get into?"

"You follow me to NYADA."

"What's that?"

"A good performing arts school in New York."

"We live in New York?!" His eyes brightened in excitement. Kurt smiled in response.

"Yes."

"Alone?"

"Sometimes."

"Sometimes." Blaine repeated curiously.

"More recently, you've been letting your best friend Sam stay with us and really... It's like you never want us to have alone time." Blaine raised an eyebrow curiously so Kurt clarified, "Every time we get close, he just walks in and doesn't realize maybe he is out of place."

"But you changed the timeline." Blaine clarified.

"I tried to put it back. Clearly that didn't work." Kurt motioned to Blaine laying in the bed.

"Sebastian wasn't my first boyfriend?" Blaine asked. "Who was?"

"I was your only boyfriend." Kurt answered and Blaine smiled. "And our courting was much more subtle. Honestly, I really didn't think you liked me at all in that way."

"I liked you." Blaine said with a certainty Kurt found flattering. "I can't imagine why I wouldn't."

"You were interested in another guy. Jeremiah."

"Not Sebastian."

"You didn't meet Sebastian until after you came to McKinley."

"I go to McKinley." That seemed to be the part of Kurt's story that Blaine believed the least.

"I asked you to, and you did." Kurt clarified.

"So I never dated Sebastian." Blaine thought about that for a while, during which time Kurt watched him carefully.

"He nearly blinded you, once." Kurt added suddenly. Blaine turned his attention back and looked curiously skeptical. "During a Micheal Jackson dance-off. He threw a rock salt slushy in your face."

"Why would he do that?"

"He was aiming at me. He didn't think you and I should be dating, but you got in the way so it hit you instead."

Blaine smirked a little, "I don't think I would have been as calm as you were, then. If I'd gone back in time and seen the two of you together."

"It's my fault you were with him. I shouldn't have changed anything." Kurt explained.

"Were you... why did you wait?" Blaine wondered. "Why did you doubt me?"

"You're the only one I've ever been with." Kurt explained. "I've never explored other options... Or none that... Maybe it didn't feel real because it wasn't with you. And you always seemed so sure of us, but you'd also been with more than just me. I hadn't. I was... scared that I might not know enough to really be sure."

"I thought you said you were my first boyfriend."

"I was."

"Then who else would I have been with?"

"You cheated on me." Kurt said with a surprising amount of ease. He watched the words compute in Blaine's mind and his eyes widen as a result. "When I first got into NYADA and moved to New York. You were still at McKinley."

"I wouldn't do that." Blaine said but his voice shook. "I'd never-"

"I thought so too." Kurt mumbled, looking away from Blaine. "But you did. And I think maybe I wasn't as over it as I thought I was."

"I'm sorry, Kurt." Blaine said. "So sorry. I swear I wouldn't..."

Kurt shook his head and looked back at Blaine.

"Who was it?" Blaine's voice shook as he asked.

"Some guy you met on Facebook."

"No."

"Yes."

"How... And you forgave me?" Blaine asked in disbelief, his mind busy trying to understand how that could have happened.

"I have now." Kurt decided. "After... I don't care what mistakes you've made... or will make. I just want you. Sometimes your judgment is wrong. Clearly mine is too. But I can't live without you and I don't want to."

Blaine smiled then and let out a small laugh. "That sounds funny."

"Why does that sound funny?" Kurt wondered.

"You're my best friend." Blaine smiled. "But we've only been together like that for... a short while... at least for me."

"Do you believe me?" Kurt asked in disbelief.

"I don't want to believe that I cheated on you." Blaine started.

"It wasn't your fault." Kurt decided before Blaine could continue.

"How wasn't it my fault?" Blaine demanded.

"I should have made you more of a priority. I should have been a better boyfriend."

"No." Blaine shook his head. "I shouldn't have done that. I don't think long distance relationships can't work. I shouldn't have done anything that would hurt you, or us."

"I love you." Kurt stated without thinking.

Blaine smiled at him and after a few moments he said, "I love you."

"Do you?" Kurt asked curiously.

Blaine nodded, "And clearly I am meant to... or you are the most heartless manipulator I could know. If I've fallen for you twice, and you've chosen me twice... Why didn't you take this as a chance to explore the other options you felt you needed to?"

"I only want you, Blaine." Kurt decided. "And if there is no way for me to get home, or to fix things, and I am meant to relive these next few years, having you by my side is the one thing I refuse to change."

Blaine smiled, "I don't mind that you changed some things."

"You're in a hospital bed, hemorrhaging." Kurt snapped.

Blaine laughed and shook his head as much as his injuries would let him. "I don't mind. I'm sure the future version of me wouldn't either. You took the time you felt you needed in a place where I wouldn't feel bad about it. You still chose me. You changed some things, sure, but that's not what matter. I was still your first, and I've experienced other things. I promise I won't cheat on you this time. I will do everything in my power to stop whatever possessed me to do it the first time. I'll tell you every time I'm so much as tempted to consider it... wait... does this mean I will never get to meet sixteen year old Kurt?"

"I tired to be as much like him as I could."

"What's different?" Blaine wondered curiously.

"You had to force me to learn about sex." Blaine seemed amused by this. "I refused. We weren't even dating. You just insisted I be prepared."

"Oh, I was prepping you." Blaine grinned with excitement.

"What?"

"It's how predators prepare younger people so they can have the kind of relationship they want without having to argue about it when the younger person is ready. I think that's how it works."

"I'm older than you."

"But not wiser." Blaine mused.

Kurt laughed and kissed his hand.

"No, you are much, much wiser... most of the time."

"Most?"

"You can be a real baby someday's." Kurt mused.

They both laughed but smiled and relaxed.

They spoke for a short time longer before the doctors returned. Blaine occasionally thought of questions which Kurt willingly answered. When the doctors came they advised them all to make these moments count with Blaine. The operations would be dangerous and after putting Blaine into a medically induced coma, there could be complications.

Kurt was allowed by his and Blaine's parents to stay at the hospital that night and hold Blaine's hand while he slept. He could hardly believe any of this was real. He couldn't believe he'd told Blaine and Blaine had believed him. He watched him sleep, ignoring the drowsy feelings of his stinging eyes. "I love you Blaine. And I won't leave until you wake up."


2014

He wasn't sure exactly how he'd gotten into bed. Maybe someone had moved him. It wouldn't surprise him if they had. He was probably in their way. The last thing he remembered was falling asleep on his folded arms resting over Blaine's legs.

Now he was in a warm, comfortable bed feeling like the sun was somehow shining on him. Maybe it was, through the windows in the corner. He didn't open his eyes as he rolled only to hit a hard body laying next to him. He froze, almost afraid to open his eyes, especially as the body wrapped their arms around him.

He opened his eyes because he knew he needed to and froze at the sight of Blaine. Blaine hand tucked his head into Kurt but when Kurt rolled away a little, he could see Blaine clearly. The cuts and the bruises were all healed.

Then he glanced around the room and felt a shutter of comfort as he felt instantly at home in his New York apartment. This must be a dream.

But it felt as real as everything else.

"Blaine?" Kurt asked in disbelief.

"Mm... Kurt..." Blaine groaned, rolling closer towards Kurt.

"Blaine." Blaine opened his eyes and propped himself up instantly at the sound in Kurt's voice. It was clear from his eyes that Blaine hadn't fully woken but he was alert enough to focus his limited attention on Kurt who sounded as if he'd just been wondering in the rain alone and hungry for the past three days.

"What's wrong?" Blaine demanded, glancing around suddenly as if perhaps the problem was somewhere in the room. Had they been robbed? Had Sam brought in a pack of raccoons thinking they were stray kittens again? Nothing struck him as obviously concerning so he glanced back at Kurt who watched him with wide, hesitant eyes. "What...?"

"Blaine..." Kurt sat up and took Blaine's face in his hands. He felt real. He then leaned forward and kissed Blaine who, although willing, was completely surprised. Kurt didn't open his eyes as he slowly pulled away from the familiar kiss of the love of his life. He didn't want to risk losing him again. He kept their faces close enough that they could feel each others breath. "Please... Please tell me this is real."

"Of course this is real... Kurt?"

Kurt slowly allowed his eyes to open but turned his head towards the wall behind their bed. If he was going to lose this again, he was going to give himself a moment to adjust.

"Am I crazy?" Kurt began instantly examining his body. On his arms were the cuts caused by Sebastian, now a little more healed. "Blaine... Please... Have I gone completely mad?"

"Kurt-baby-what's wrong?" Blaine asked, placing Kurt's cheek in his hand to steady his slowly shaking body.

"I-I-I" Kurt looked around desperately for a clue. His arms were something but what if they weren't enough. "When did I get these cuts?"

"My God, what happened?" Blaine concerned, taking him lightly by the wrists. "What did you do?!"

"I didn't have these last night?" Kurt demanded.

"No, not that I noticed... Kurt..."

Kurt fell back in the bed then and sighed with some relief. No, it wasn't a dream, he knew. It was too real. But somehow he seemed to be back, and he was happy that was the case.

"What day is it?" Kurt breathed. "The actual date?"

"I-um... September... 27th? 28th? Depends what time it is... 4:14am, Kurt, really?" Blaine groaned and dropped back into the bed, hugging his pillow hard.

"4:14." Kurt repeated, sitting up.

"Nope." Blaine groaned into the bed as he felt Kurt move. "Not again. Not unless it's an emergency."

"Blaine." Kurt breathed heavily. "You died last night."

"I damn well wish." He grumbled into the pillows and blankets, curling himself tighter as if it would help him sleep.

"At 4:13am." Kurt added breathlessly.

"It was a dream." Blaine moaned into the pillow.

"It wasn't... Blaine... how is this happening?" Blaine didn't move or answer. Kurt rolled and started to shake him until he sat up and lightly pushed Kurt away from him. He wore a dark glare that seemed to cut through the darkness. "How did we meet?"

"How about at breakfast?" Blaine requested wanting to go back to sleep.

"Please, how did we meet?!"

"I-uh... at Dalton academy."

"Where at Dalton?"

"What?"

"Where? The bathroom, a classroom, the office...?"

"The stairs." Blaine groaned. "Can't this wait?"

"Was I your first boyfriend?"

"Yes." Blaine moaned. "But you won't be my last if you don't let me sleep."

"When was our first time?"

"After Westside, in like... 2012, can we please..."

"Blaine, I time traveled back to 2009 and screwed everything up and it was terrible but somehow nothing seemed to change."

"It was a dream."

"It wasn't! I was there for months!"

"Then you should know how we met." Blaine grumbled.

"But I didn't meet you like I was supposed to." Kurt stated.

"Alright." Blaine groaned, sitting up straighter and turning on the bedside lamp. "You time traveled. How?"

"I don't know how."

"How'd you get back?"

"I don't know." Kurt blinked. "You died and I returned."

"I died."

"Yes." Kurt answered, letting tears fall as his fingers traced the skin of Blaine's face. Blaine calmed for a moment and leaned into Kurt's touch.

"How?"

"After a car accident."

"I've never been in a car accident."

"You were this time."

"How did the dream start?"

"It wasn't a dream." Kurt snapped. "You can't remember dreams. I can remember every second of this."

"Maybe..."

"Blaine, I saw you die." Kurt's voice cracked. "I felt every second of it. I dreaded living to see another day. I wasn't able to move from your side. I... couldn't have dreamed that horror so clearly."

"Okay." Blaine decided only because he couldn't argue with the torment worn on Kurt's face, or the agony in his voice. "You went back in time. You... Why was I in a car accident."

Kurt told Blaine everything then. Everything exactly as he remembered it and in as much detail as he could recall. It was nearly 7am when he finally finished and Blaine gaped at him wide eyed.

"You went through three surgeries in four days. The last one... it was supposed to be the safest... nothing major needed to happen. They'd fixed the hemorrhage. Your bones were all set in place, but... your heart stopped anyways. And there was nothing I could do."

"And then you woke up here." Blaine clarified.

"I... have... I couldn't breathe, Blaine. When you were gone... when everything I ever wanted was taken from me because I was so... I'm so sorry, Blaine."

Kurt fell forward a little but Blaine caught him and pulled him into a tight hug, cradling his body so that he could cry comfortably.

"Why did you let me date Sebastian?" Blaine asked suddenly and Kurt choked out a laugh but it didn't stop the tears.

"I didn't know how to stop you." Kurt answered in an almost inaudible way. "I didn't want to scare you away."

"You said that already." Blaine reminded. "But if it were me... I'd... How could you stomach seeing that?"

Kurt held him tighter in response. "I'd have killed him. If I saw you with someone else... if I went back as saw you dating Chandler...?" Blaine clenched his teeth and shook his head but let his eyes soften after a few moments. "But thank you for buying me the cronuts. Honestly, I thought you hated that I loved them so much."

"I hate nothing you do."

"That's only because you thought I died." Blaine mused with a small smirk.

"I love you so much, Blaine. So much more than I could ever explain. I'm... so, so, so sorry I ever thought I could be without you."

"I want to go back knowing what I know now." Blaine mused, ignoring Kurt's apology. "You got me into bed pretty quick... I bet I could have gotten you in... fifteen minutes."

"Oh!" Kurt gasped then laughed looking up and kissing Blaine hard on the lips. "I was never that easy."

"You loved me from the moment you saw me!" Blaine argued. "And I know everything about you, it wouldn't be that hard."

"I thought you were attractive, I thought the same about Sam." Kurt reminded. "I think you're forgetting how frigid I was."

"You weren't..." But Blaine stopped to think for a moment. "I think I could have done it."

"Thank you." Kurt said suddenly.

"What for?" Blaine wondered.

"You're not mad."

"Why would I be mad?"

"I waited so long before realizing I needed you." Kurt answered.

"But you realized it." Blaine noted. "And everything worked out anyways."

"Do you really believe me?"

"Sam has a million theories on time travel." Blaine stated. "I will talk to him and let you know."

"Will you still love me when you realize it wasn't a dream?"

"Nothing you could do would stop me from loving you." Blaine decided, kissing Kurt and pushing him back onto the bed, sitting lightly on top of him. "Besides, you came back to me."

"I always will." Kurt vowed and pulled Blaine closer to him once more.

The End


Thank you all for reading! I hope you enjoyed! Again, I think I will be adding an alternate ending (Or alternate second half) because I thought it would be interesting to have the story pan out a different way also. It won't be attached to this story, I will recreate this one in another version named "Boy in my bed" with a similar beginning but changing the rest. This will be completely upon demand, so please let me know who is interested. Thank you very much again!
