"I'll see you 7:30am sharp then?" Burt asked as he walked Blaine out of the kitchen.
"Yes sir...Burt, I mean." Blaine stuttered as Burt chuckled. This kid really was something.
Meanwhile
Kurt was still in his room fuming to himself on how Blaine could say all that in front of his dad. He was a mixture between feeling a sense of gratitude, deep respect for the boy with gorgeous eyes and humiliation.
How dare he think that he was anorexic, how dare he act like he knew Kurt from a bar of soap, like his grandmother used to say before she passed away; Pacing the room he flunked himself on the bed bringing the pillow on his face. They were having a great time weren't they? Or they were having a great time until Blaine had to mention his weight.
Personally he thought Blaine was the one that pushed himself too far in the song 'When I get you alone', he actually had been wondering why his cheekbones were so small and his hips so slight, why Blaine worried about Kurt when there should be someone worried about Blaine. It should be the other way around.
Why was Blaine always the one with concerns?
Was it just him?
To ease his mind he thought of Blaine's body dancing during that song of When I get you alone his shoulders slightly tanned with a bit of muscle and smooth looking skin, breathtaking eyes until Blaine gazed at him with a wondrous smile and a wink he had been staring at Blaine like he was an angel sent from heaven, he drooled thinking what Blaine would look like in a cheerios outfit he forced himself to look back at the screen. Now to think of it he acted like a creep.
"I'm screwed" he added quietly to himself staring at the ceiling on his bed.
It turned out Blaine liked his videos that he had downloaded to practise at home. He had a playlist even though Kurt still liked the song surprises Blaine did each week.
Kurt waited; kind of hoping Blaine would come in and apologize but he didn't. Kurt couldn't really blame him either. He felt like running out there and hugging Blaine.
He wanted to say sorry.
He wanted to never let Blaine go but his pride got the better of him.
"Thanks for coming tonight Blaine," Burt said as he opened the door while Blaine gathered his jacket.
"Thank you Burt for everything, and I'm really sorry for putting Kurt on the spot like that,"
"I told ya he'll come around, don't stress. Kurt had no reason to explode like that either, it could have gone much better if we all talked like the adults we are."
Kurt overheard them talking when wondering why there was a lot of noise outside his room having forced himself of the bed with a groan. He heard Blaine thanking Burt, and the conversation about him but nothing else before he fumed his way back to his dresser to moisturise. He shivered when he realized how cold he felt. He went over to check his window but it was closed so he shrugged and went back to his dresser.
"Kurt you okay? You want me to bring your dinner in?" His father called half an hour later from when Blaine left. Kurt had gotten a text from Blaine 5 minutes into his moisturizing routine and he still hasn't replied Don't be mad please. I care about you. Please Don't shut me out.
Kurt ignored it but checked the next message when it came
Sweet dreams
Blaine
"Not hungry," Kurt acknowledged after re-reading the text for the 5th time on his table wondering whether or not he should reply as he rubbed his cream in frowning.
"Your dinner is getting cold," Burt pointed out as though he didn't already figure that would happen.
"Just throw it out, I don't want it." Kurt answered not meaning to be rude but he really just didn't want to talk right now.
He was not anorexic just because he didn't want food and he said as much to his dad.
Burt however came in with an Ipad screen and placed it in front of Kurt.
"Why are you backing Blaine up?" Kurt asked trying not to sound as harsh but couldn't help but feel betrayed when Burt went along with Blaine and not his own son as Blaine left and especially now as he saw the Dr Phil website was showing.
"I'm not backing anybody up, I'm just being the man of the house," Kurt snorted at the comment "Blaine let me burrow that for tonight, he had it in the car. Got it out after dinner" Burt explained as he pointed to the Ipad on Kurt's desk.
"Oh sure he can afford an Ipad but not a pizza," Kurt side commented but he knew that was rude. Blaine didn't deserve that but he was mad. At what exactly he didn't know.
"Kurt," Burt warned "Blaine has been nothing but nice and you can't deny that so don't go bad mouthing him when he's not around. I raised you better than that, now look at the screen, and read it,"
"Fine," Kurt muttered miserably as he rolled his eyes when seeing Anorexia in bold black writing. Typical Blaine to talk to Burt about it when he wasn't around like he did with Mercedes and the bullying as though he were a child.

"You already show at least 5 warning signs Kurt, you just refused to eat dinner twice, even though it's probably because you're angry you do that a lot when I make you dinner, you're obviously worried about your weight if you continue to over exercise because let's get real, Sue Sylvester has no clue what you do outside school, and you sass back at people all the time" Burt said softly as he sat down on the bed while Kurt was sitting at his desk reading but turning to face him as Burt spoke.
Kurt didn't say anything yet. He didn't say he sass'd back at people because it was easier to deal with that then the name calling and letting them win
"That's pretty scary, now don't you think Blaine has a right to be worried? Hell I'm worried and I hadn't even noticed it before he pointed it out. I should have, you only eat a piece of toast at home for dinner unless it's our Friday night meals. I don't know what you eat at school but it can't be much. He could lose his mother any day Kurt, he has been there for you since day 1 and he told me how much you mean to him."
Kurt felt his anger weaken. He didn't know what his dad was trying to prove with Blaine.
He was already in love with him.
He just never said it out loud before or to himself for that matter but his chest ached for Blaine. He ached for Blaine's hurt to be less than his own.
Blaine deserved all the good that there was in this rotten world.
"I told him not to be worried that you'd come around but I could see the look on his face, he doesn't want to lose you so don't be mad at Blaine, be mad at the fact that he could be right, he doesn't want to see you get to the point of anorexia, and I sure as hell don't want to see you become like that either, be glad that you have two people caring about you, 3 if you count that girl whose always coming round here and 4 if you count that glee club of yours, how many people are looking after Blaine?"
Kurt nodded looking at him with such seriousness and a slight hint of shame " I promise. I really was only doing it for cheerleading, I really want to get into NYADA. I have to get into that school,"
"Kurt, if you plan on going into that school and ditching Blaine... don't you think you should tell him straight of you can't be more than friends? You're giving him mixed signals here,"
"I can't lose him dad. How can I? …he made me feel safe more than I had at school and he made it seem okay to do activities as a gay person in a different environment where I'm not always constantly pushed down for being who I am. I care about him too. I want to see him smile, I want to make sure that he has someone for him if anything were to go wrong with his mother. I want his mother to know his son is being looked after. I wasn't trying to make myself get to that point of apprehension that you and Blaine have of me, I don't want to ditch Blaine, I don't think I know how to, and I want to make this work...so badly dad,"
"I know you weren't kiddo. That's not the point…I'm glad you don't plan on ditching him, I guess you two will have to work that out" Burt sighed looking tired.
"I'll cut of Zumba if you're really that worried," Kurt said trying to make a compromise.
Burt didn't seem happy despite Kurt thinking it would of made him happy.
"I don't want you to do that because I know you like it, and Blaine told me he'd make it easier for you if you wanted to continue,"
Kurt made a face "I don't want to do the beginners, if that's what he means by easier"
Burt laughed "Well how about you go slow in Zumba next week follow Blaine's advice and then Blaine can get you a slice of cheesecake on your date,"
Kurt's head shot right up. "What?" Seriously was his dad telling him Blaine wanted to take him out?
"Blaine asked me if he could take you out on a date, considering you two were talking again. I said it was up to you, but I recommended he take you to eat that cheesecake you like at Breadstix"
Kurt's reaction was silent as Burt smiled at him and patted his leg but internally he was screaming. "Just think about it alright?"
Kurt nodded as his father left. He hovered his finger over his phone buttons trying to work out what to say to Blaine.
Blaine must like him if he still wanted to go out on a date with him even though he was so nasty to Blaine the last two days. He felt awful for the way he behaved. It makes Kurt want to know more about Blaine, it made Kurt want to give Blaine everything he had giving Kurt. It made Kurt want to love Blaine because he deserved all the love in the world for caring so much.
Kurt decided he wouldn't reply just yet while his mind was still thinking too much.
He wanted to do it right, and he wanted to do it in person. Kurt Hummel loved Blaine. It was simple as that and he couldn't wait to tell Blaine.
I'm not mad at you. I couldn't stay mad even if I wanted to, you're too much of a gentleman to deserve that kind of treatment. Why do you have to be so polite? Thank you Blaine for everything. For caring about me and for helping me through the bullying for bonding with my dadP.S What's this about a date? - Kurt
Kurt wanted to say a lot more but figured it'd be better to say it face to face.
Too much inspiration from Disney movies? I don't know Kurt, at least I don't act like maleficent! :p I'm glad you're not mad at me I'm still sorry I pushed the topic too far Kurt you have to know because I do I really really do care about you and yeah about that...would you go out with me? Please? – Blaine
Kurt's smile could have stretched from wall to wall glad no one could see his flabbergasted face.
Disney! Well that explains all the charm Mr Dapper ;) I'm looking forward to it then. I'm sorry I snapped at you.
Me too and don't worry about it. Wait so is that a yes?
Yes Blaine Warbler I will be your date
asjfbhjfsdhfbhj #Wish I could kiss you now – Blaine
You'll have to suffice with some kisses via phone until our date xxxxxxxxx- Kurt
I can deal with that, virtual kisses back! - Blaine
