Hey Guys, I am so sorry for the delay. I have had real writers block with this story. I hope things will flow a little easier but I may be increasing the pace in the next few chapters. I hope this isn't too bad. I am a little rusty with this story.

Thanks Guys,

H Xx

They sat in the diner and ordered dinner.
"My cooking has improved since High school, though I still favour Italian food" Blaine said with a smile
"Yes but I am hungry now, this just works out better. Did you want to come over mine afterwards instead?" Sebastian asked
"OK, if it makes you more comfortable." Blaine said with a puzzled smile

"It's not that, its just, look Hunter and I finished on bad terms. I don't trust him and I wouldn't trust him to try something and get to the people who are helping me. I think he would see you as a target, you are helping me through this"
"So your trying to protect me?" Blaine asked
"Yes and my child, Hunter is very powerful, he has lots if influence and is always happy to abuse his power. It wouldn't surprise me if he had someone trail me or found a way to look up my address."
"Sebastian, has he threatened you?" Blaine asked quietly glancing around him
"He made it clear when I left that he didn't want the baby" Sebastian answered

"Sebastian, this is serious. You should at least report it?!" Blaine tried to argue
"I can't Blaine, don't you see he would find out and who knows what he would do to me"
"I just worry about you, I worry about you being alone and if he knows were you live it would be easy to find out where I live. I mean at least my place is secure. I have security, I have cameras. ID's need to be checked or the doorman needs to be familiar with you. With Kurt's career and mine we were always cautious"

"He was into fashion! Why would people need to be careful about that?" Sebastian exclaimed
"Fashion is a cut throat business. Kurt had some amazing ideas that made him arguable one of the best in designing new styles and a major player in the magazine People were jealous of that success and someone attempted to break in and steal his designs in our first home. Kurt had several large offers in an attempt to draw him away from Vogue...then after the stalking incident we didn't take any chances..."
"Stalking incident?" Sebastian asked
"Yes a crazed female I helped once couldn't understand how someone like me could be gay, she got obsessive, stalking me. It seemed pretty mild though I recorded it. Then when I was out she approached Kurt and threatened him. That was it. No one threatens the one I love. It was hard to prove so Kurt installed security cameras and strict rules with the doorman. We had a new doorman, who was covering and didn't know the rules. The girl was allowed up into our halfway. We had the whole thing on camera, so we were able to get a restraining order on her. Since then I have kept them up, as technically the only apartment at the end of the corridor is ours"
"Wow!" Sebastian said
"So I am relatively safe. You don't need to worry about me. Maybe just document everything Hunter does or has said, or anything strange..."
"That's actually a good idea. "
"They do occasionally happen. So what's next?" Blaine asked
"Did you fancy doing something normal like going to the cinema or something?"
"Sure or we can watch Netflix at mine." Blaine suggested

"I don't know"
"I never thought it would be this hard to get you to come to mine. Come on. We'll have a fun night."
"OK. Never knew you were so desperate to get me back to your place" Sebastian said in an attempt to bring some normality back to the conversation
"Come one" Blaine said as he finished eating and paid the cheque.

They drove quietly to Blaine's and to Sebastian's relief no one appeared to be following them. Blaine parked before getting out and opening the door for Sebastian. As he walked in Sebastian noticed the security at the door

"Hey Dan, this is Sebastian, a friend of mine. Sebastian this is Dan, our security" Blaine introduced

"A pleasure, I will remember to make a note" Dan answered

Sebastian looked at Blaine as they got into the elevator

"He makes a note, then if you come again he takes your picture, which is stored in the approval folder for other security guards. It has a memo under each one as to whether you are allowed in or not. Oh and you are not able to invite anyone else is as long as you are a guest"
"Wow Security here is good."
"It's expensive but it's worth it." Blaine said with a smile

Sebastian followed Blaine out of the elevator and Blaine led him to an apartment door opening it slowly. Sebastian was initially surprised he expected something grander especially with Kurt's decorating skills

"Come in. I will give you the tour " Blaine said leading the way. Sebastian looked around the apartment. It had 2 rooms, a cosy lounge area with a floor to ceiling book shelf and keyboard with stand in the corner, a dining room and kitchen, a bathroom and a balcony that over looked the city.

"So this is my humble abode" Blaine said with a smile

Sebastian took in the colour scheme, it seemed very put together if a little eccentric in places.

"I like the colours, was that you?" He asked

"Goodness me no. Kurt wouldn't let me choose the colour scheme. I always had a habit of clashing colours apparently. He had full rein decorating privilege. I did get to say what colours I like and I got to choose the chair in the corner"

Sebastian then noted the chair in the corner, it was tastefully patch worked in a variety of colours but even to Sebastian's untrained eye it was something special.

"We had a throw to put over it when people came, so it didn't look so out of place." Blaine said sheepishly
"Why did you keep it? I am impressed. I couldn't live under the place being decorated and my partner taking control"
"Kurt was amazing at designing. It's the only thing he had full rein on. We shared everything else."
"You dress differently now, your seem more muted and wearing less of those dashing bow ties"

"Yeah, I am not sure what Kurt had in mind when he would suggest bow ties, I mean I look better in a tie or open shirt. They did suit the professor kind of look at Dalton though. I guess Kurt and I fell into old habits with regards to appearances"

"...so why did he et you keep the chair if it went against his decorating scheme?" Sebastian asked
" It was originally my great grandmothers and got passed down through the generations, there's a story behind it if you would like to hear it. The story was the reason it remained in this lounge to be honest"

"Do you mind some other time?" Sebastian didn't feel in the mood to listen to the anecdote
"No problem. Can I get you a drink?" Blaine offered seemingly undeterred
"Do you have any juice? The doctor says I need to elevate my sugar levels a little"
"Yeah." Blaine said and Sebastian watched him pour 2 glasses of juice before sitting on the sofa. "So what are watching tonight?" Blaine asked.

The remainder of the evening was spent with small talk and relaxing in front of the movies. Sebastian enjoy it though his mind tried to justify his actions. 'So what if Blaine hid in Sebastian's when something scary happened or Sebastian would absent mindedly run his hand through the curls or the fact that by the end if the first movie Sebastian had his head laying in Blaine's lap, with Blaine's fingers running through his hair. Friends could do that. Right?' Sebastian thought to himself and to be honest it was the comfiest and safest place he'd been for a long time.
