Hey all! I am EXTREMELY sorry for taking so long to post this chapter. I know I had said 1-2 days, but I then lost Internet for about five days and could not post.

I hate to say this but after this chapter I will be taking at least a 2 week hiatus. I am currently moving back to my old house in FL (from VA so a big move) and I will not have access to a computer for about a week and a half starting today. I will try to continue to write during that time so that I can have it ready to post as soon as I get my computer back, but there are no guarantees because that would require me to write from my phone, which I hate doing.

Now, this chapter is kind of like the quiet before a big storm. It's more of a happy, free-flowing chapter, which I think is perfect because i have a lot of stuff planned for the next 2-3 chapters. I really like this chapter and it's definitely my favorite that I've written so far.

Also, I just want to apologize ahead of time for any errors or typos that I miss/make in this chapter. I wrote most of it on the computer, but I had to write the ending and do all the editing on my phone so there may be some crazy errors due to Auto Correct.

As it is right now I am currently laying down on a sleeping bag in the middle of an empty room at 3:15 in the morning my time so I think I'm going to go now and get some sleep. Enjoy!


Navigating the Unknown

Chapter 4: Wanted


Blaine stood up when he saw the three returning. Finn and his mom were in the midst of a conversation, but Burt came up to talk to Blaine.

"He's in room 227. He was asking for you." Burt smiled at him before walking off. Blaine took a deep breath and headed through the double doors.

He followed the signs to room 227, which included going up to the next level. When he got to the room, he found the door slightly ajar. He reached for the handle, but another hand reached it before his. "Um, excuse me, but this patient is not accepting any visitors right now. He only got out of surgery a little while ago and he needs to rest." Blaine looked up to see a different nurse than before. She had kind blue eyes and medium brown hair that was pulled back into a pony tail, just like the other nurse.

"But I-" was all Blaine got out before the nurse cut him off.

"I'm sorry, sir, but only immediate family is allowed in there right now. Unless you can prove that you're immediate family, I can't let you in."

"I'm his boyfriend." Blaine said flatly as he stared at the nurse.

"I'm sorry, sir, but that doesn't count. You're just going to have to wait. Kurt needs to rest."

"Yeah but-" Blaine, whose voice was almost frantic now, was interrupted again, but this time not by the nurse.

"Blaine…? Is that you?" said a faint voice coming from inside of the room.

"Kurt! They won't let me in to see you!" Blaine yelled back desperately.

"IF YOU DON'T LET HIM IN HERE RIGHT NOW THEN I'M GOING OUT THERE TO SEE HIM!" Kurt yelled, threatening the nurse.

The nurse's eyes widened after hearing this. She opened the door and briskly walked into the room to stop Kurt from getting out of bed, shutting the door behind her. Blaine could hear them talking, Kurt clearly upset that they wouldn't let Blaine in. He almost went in after the nurse, but decided against it, thinking that hbewilder have a better chance of being allowed to stay if he just waited for her to return.

After about a minute, the nurse returned, looking clearly defeated. Her eyes narrowed as she looked at Blaine, saying, "You have ten minutes."

Blaine smiled as she walked away. He pushed open the door and walked past the empty bed to Kurt's side of the room. "Hi," he said as he walked over to the side of Kurt's bed. The previously closed curtain had been opened, and it made the room look twice as big.

"Hey." Kurt was sitting up in bed now, and Blaine leaned down and gave Kurt a quick kiss on the lips before sitting down in the same chair that Burt had, intertwining his left hand with Kurt's right as he did so. "I'm really sorry about our date tonight. I was really looking forward to it."

Blaine was flabbergasted. "Kurt. Are you seriously apologizing for missing our date tonight? I haven't even thought about that since before your dad called me and told me you were at the hospital. You have absolutely nothing to apologize for. YOU GOT IN A CAR CRASH. I'm just glad that you didn't get really hurt."

Kurt smiled. "Thanks."

"For what?"

"For everything. For being here for me; for being the best boyfriend ever; for just…for everything." Kurt smiled at Blaine as he stared into his eyes.

"Well then you're welcome." Blaine said as he smiled back at Kurt.

"Come up here with me. I feel as if you are really far away." Kurt started to move around in his bed as he said this, making room for Blaine next to him. Blaine stood up and sat down next to Kurt on the bed, being careful of his wires. He swung his legs onto the bed so that he was in the same position that Kurt was in. "Now, sing to me" Kurt said in a demanding, childlike tone as he closed his eyes and snuggled up to Blaine, resting his head on his chest.

Blaine sat there for a moment, trying to think of what song he wanted to sing. He smiled when he thought of one, and wrapped his arm around his boyfriend's shoulders as he began to sing.

You know I'd fall apart without you

I don't know how you do what you do

'Cause everything that don't make sense about me

Makes sense when I'm with you

When Blaine came to the next part, he decided to change the word 'girl' to 'boy', seeing that it was more fitting.

Like everything that's green boy I need you

But it's more than one and one makes two

Put aside the math and the logic of it

You gotta know you're wanted too

'Cause I wanna wrap you up

Wanna kiss your lips

I wanna make you feel wanted

And I wanna call you mine

Wanna hold your hand forever

Never let you forget it

Yeah, I wanna make you feel wanted

Blaine could see Kurt's smile forming as he sang these lyrics, knowing that they perfectly described how they both felt about each other. Blaine's own smile got wider, and he continued.

Anyone can tell you you're pretty

And you get that all the time, I know you do

But your beauty's deeper than the makeup

And I wanna show you what I see tonight

When I wrap you up

When I kiss your lips

I wanna make you feel wanted

And I wanna call you mine

Wanna hold your hand forever

Never let you forget it

'Cause baby I wanna make you feel wanted

As good as you make me feel

I wanna make you feel better

Better than your fairy tales

Better than your best dreams

You're more than everything I need

You're all I ever wanted

All I ever wanted

Blaine could feel Kurt's breathing slow, signaling that Kurt had fallen asleep. Blaine smiled down at the boy he loved so much, lowering his voice as he finished the song so as to not wake him.

And I just wanna wrap you up

Wanna kiss your lips

I wanna make you feel wanted

And I wanna call you mine

Wanna hold your hand forever

And ever let you forget it

Yeah, I wanna make you feel wanted

Baby I wanna make you feel

Wanted

'Cause you'll always be wanted

When he finished the song, Blaine bent his head down and kissed the top of Kurt's bandaged head as he stared out of the second story window. It wasn't much of a view (all he could see was the hospital parking lot), but it was still better than having no window at all.

He looked up when he heard someone come in. It was the same nurse that had tried to stop him from entering Kurt's room earlier. She had a clipboard resting on her right arm, her left hand lifting up one of the top papers so that she could look at the one underneath. She looked up and stopped short when she saw them, her mouth slightly open as if she had been about to say something. Her brow furrowed as she closed her mouth into a tight seam. She then pointed to Kurt as she mouthed the words, Is he asleep?

Blaine nodded, hoping that the nurse would let him stay. He kew that he had already outstayed his welcome, but Blaine wasn't ready to leave yet. He hadn't spent a lot of alone time with Kurt recently, and he missed it. Plus there's also the fact that Kurt was currently asleep on his chest, and Blaine didn't want to wake him.

The nurse, whose nametag (which Blaine just now noticed) read Jill, sighed and rolled her eyes. Without saying another word, Jill walked out of the room, leaving the two boys in peace.

Blaine let out a deep breath that he hadn't realized he had been holding. Glad to know that he was able to stay longer, Blaine shifted and snuggled up to Kurt, falling asleep within minutes.


Blaine opened his eyes to see a plastic railing to the bed he was in, along with an ugly curtain just beyond that. It took him a moment to realize where he was, and when he did he immediately rolled over to face Kurt.

Kurt was sitting up in bed, awake. "Good morning, sunshine," Kurt said in a cheery voice.

Still groggy from his nap, it took Blaine another minute to realize what Kurt had said. He stifled a yawn and scooted himself into a sitting position before his brain finally made the connection. His brow furrowed in confusion. "Morning? What do you mean morning?"

"Silly Blainey. You slept here all night. Jill wasn't too happy about it, but I threatened her again so you're fine."

It was only then that Blaine noticed the sunlight streaming in from the window. I slept here all night. Oh God, I'm such an idiot. I should have never let myself fall asleep here. I knew I was exhausted from such a long day and I was bound to sleep through the whole night. UGGHH! ! ! ! Why did I do that? ! At least I called mom while I was in the waiting room before I came back here. Oh man, I should probably call her again so she doesn't get worried…

"Uh, Blaine? You OK?"

Blaine's rambling thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Kurt's voice. He looked up at his boyfriend, a confused, sleepy expression still on his face. "Yeah, sorry. I just can't believe I slept here all night. How long have you been up?"

"Oh, like an hour. But I woke up last night around midnight when Jill came in and tried to get you up to move."

"Man, I slept through that too? Gosh I was tired."

Kurt laughed at this. "Yeah, Jill wasn't happy that you fell asleep on the bed with me. Last night she told me that you weren't even supposed to be in the room in the first place, but that she would make an exception and let you stay if you would just get up and at least move to the chair."

Blaine smiled. He swung his legs over the side of the bed and stretched as he stood up. He proceeded to the restroom, and upon his return, he noticed that a tray with breakfast on it had been delivered. "Ooh, Cap'n Crunch, my favorite," he said as he sat back down on the edge of the bed and grabbed the mini box of cereal. He poured it into the bowl that had been provided, along with the small carton of milk. Kurt sat silently as Blaine ate, his mind wondering:

Gosh, I'm so lucky to have Blaine. I truly don't know what I would do without him. I can't believe that he actually spent the night here with me. Who else besides my family would do that for me? I guess that just goes to show how lucky I am and what a great boyfriend I have...

When Blaine was finnished, he leaned back onto the bed, which was currently upright. He turned his head so that he was face to face with Kurt. Blaine gave him a tired smile, which Kurt returned with a huge grin.

"You know, I think I like your hair in the morning. It looks more natural and, well, wild," he said laughing. Kurt was referring to the fact that Blaine's hair was a complete mess. The gel that he had put in it the day before was mostly still there since he hadn't washed it out the night before, however it had come undone in many parts, leaving some areas curly or partially curly, while other areas remained in straight lumps of hardened gel.

Blaine's face fell almost immediately when Kurt said this. He had forgotten about his hair. He jumped out of bed and raced back to the bathroom, not even bothering to close the door. Kurt could hear his loud groan as Blaine looked at himself in the mirror. The water turned on, and a minute later Blaine returned with a sopping wet head of hair and a small towel that he was using to dry it. "I figured I would rather be seen with head of all curly hair rather than with a bed head of half and half."

Kurt smiled. He happened to love Blaine's curly locks, but he rarely got to see them due to Blaine's loathing of them.

He sighed as he sat back down on the edge of the bed and looked at Kurt. "Speaking of which, I should probably get going. I've already missed almost half the day of school, and I need to get my mom her car back." He bent around and embraced Kurt in a tight hug. After a few seconds, he pulled back just enough so that their faces were a few inches apart. "Feel better, OK?"

Kurt only nodded as he moved his head in towards Blaine's, their lips meeting. They kissed for about a minute before Blaine finally pulled away. "I have to go..." he said as he looked into Kurt's eyes.

Kurt sighed. "I know. text me though, OK?"

Blaine broke out into a smile. "Don't I always?"

"Yeah, you do," Kurt said returning the smile.

Blaine bent down and gave Kurt one more quick kiss on lips. "Bye. I love you."

"I love you, too."

Blaine headed towards the exit, throwing the towel that he had used to dry his hair with back into the bathroom as he did so.


So, what did you think? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE review!

Now, real quick, i need for all of my readers to please do me this one quick favor.

If you have not heard of the song that Blaine sang in this chapter, GO LOOK IT UP NOW. The song is called 'Wanted' by Hunter Hayes, and it is literally my favorite song in the world. If you don't believe me, ask klaine-supermegafoxyawesomehot. Hunter Hayes is kind of a newer artist and only has one album out, but he is an absolutely phenomenal artist and he deserves to be known! Oh, and most of his other songs are not this slow, so if this song is a little slow for your taste, check out some of his others!

This is not, by the way, the reason I chose to use this song. It just so happened to fit the criteria for the kind of song I was looking for for Blaine to sing. However, it may be why this chapter is my favorite : )

Let me know what you think of his music and of this chapter in your reviews! Wow I feel like a spoke person for him. Please excuse my obsession over this amazingly talented singer. I think I'm going to go now...
