Another Anniversary

"Welcome back to the Tonight show. Our next guest is a multi talented artist, a singer, a dancer, an actor, a fashion designer, and a writer! I don't think there is anything he can't do! Please welcome New York Times Best Selling author of the Sleepwalker Chronicles, Kurt Hummel!"

Kurt smiled brightly as he walked out on stage, waving to the audience, and then took his seat next to Jimmy Fallon.

"So, Kurt, thank you for coming tonight."

Kurt laughed. "It's an honor to be here."

"It's an honor to have you, I don't know how you managed to work us into your schedule. Your new book is coming out tomorrow, and you're about to make your Broadway debut in a musical that you wrote, based on a short story you wrote in high school, and I heard you designed the costumes yourself."

"It's true," Kurt said, beaming. "The Cupid Project will be opening in two weeks at the Schubert Theater."

"Okay, so I heard a rumor about The Cupid Project, and I find it really hard to believe, so I want you to tell me the story behind the story."

Kurt laughed. "Well, It's no secret that I've been known to sleepwalk now and then, and back in high school, I was going through a very...emotional time. There was this guy I was crushing on hard, but of course he was oblivious. We were given an assignment to write a Valentine's story in my creative writing class, but I was too distracted by this boy. So our mutual friends decided to try to cheer me up in different ways, and I apparently wrote about their attempts while I was asleep."

"You're saying you wrote the entire story in your sleep? Literally?"

"I did."

"That's incredible! What else have you done while asleep?"

Kurt laughed again. "Well, I've been told I make a great Turkey BLT, and that my Sai skills are better when I am asleep."

"That's truly unbelievable. But I heard there was more to the story. What happened with the boy you were crushing on?"

"Well, it turns out I'm not the only one who sleepwalks. I started getting gifts from a 'Secret Admirer,' and it nearly drove me nuts, because I didn't know who was sending them. Neither did he, apparently. He'd been shopping in his sleep, sending me gifts without realizing it."

"So the guy you were crushing on was sending you gifts in his sleep, while you were writing stories in your sleep. That is incredible. So, what happened with the boy? Did you guys end up getting together?"

"We did. He's actually here tonight. His name is Blaine Anderson."

"Where is he?" Jimmy asked, looking around the audience. "Blaine? Why don't you come down and join us."

Kurt smiled at his dapper boyfriend as he joined them on stage, sitting beside Kurt on the sofa.

"So Blaine, just how oblivious were you to Kurt's feelings for you back then?" Jimmy asked.

The younger man blushed. "I was pretty blind, I admit. At least consciously, anyway. Subconsciously, I think I was always aware of him. It just took a while for me to catch on."

"Well," Jimmy said, "I heard that today is a special day for the two of you."

"Yes," Blaine said. "Today is the tenth anniversary of the day I finally came to my senses and realized how amazing Kurt really is!"

Kurt laughed and leaned in to kiss him on the cheek.

Jimmy smiled at the couple. "So Kurt, you said you had a surprise for Blaine tonight. Care to share it?"

Kurt grinned. "Well, I've invited some old friends of ours to help us celebrate."

The curtain went up, and there stood Wes, David, Thad, Trent, Nick, Jeff, Beatz, Matt, and most of the former Warblers. Blaine looked happy to see them, but was confused when Kurt stood up to join the a Capella group.

They began to harmonize, and Kurt began to sing.

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Ooh, baby

Blaine smiled happily as Kurt sang to him. Wes broke ranks and moved towards Blaine, handing him a white rose with a wisteria colored ribbon attached to it. The handsome Asian man hugged him, and rejoined the others. David moved forward then and presented another rose, this one with a ribbon of iris blue. He hugged his former teammate, and moved back, as Thad stepped forward with a rose tied with a pale lemon chiffon ribbon. Trent's rose had a lime green ribbon.

Kurt continued to sing as the Warblers presented their roses.

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand, I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

Jeff gave Blaine another rose, this one with Yale blue ribbon, and Nick handed him one with an ocean blue ribbon. Beatz's ribbon was ultramarine.

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

Each of the remaining Warblers presented their roses, the ribbons adorning them went from magenta to aquamarine, robins egg blue, raspberry, and Yankee's blue.

The last two roses had ribbons of moss green and eggshell.

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
(My voice.)
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

As the last rose was presented, Kurt stepped forward, and got down on one knee, holding out an engagement ring.

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

As the music faded away, the audience erupted into cheers and applause as Blaine wiped tears from his eyes, and nodded. "Yes!"
