A/N hey longer chapter, i spent ages on this, and i hope its ok, :)
Blaine and Lexie had just got back from shopping, Blaine hadn't been home yet since his school term (semester) ended two hours ago, and for the first hour Lexie had heard nothing except how she embarrassed him in front of Kurt, the warblers, Kurt, his friends and Kurt. She also heard another hour of a long complaint about how he now had to dance, even though he hadn't danced properly in years and now had to perform in front of Kurt, the warblers, Kurt, his friends and Kurt. She eventually shut him up by forcing him to try on clothes he was slightly annoyed about being told what to wear but after hearing "If you don't try this on i am going to come into that bloody changing room and put it on you myself!" he complied. He was going to talk about Wes asking Lexie out, but as much as he loved her, she was scaring him at the moment, so he decided to leave it.
Blaine was done packing away his clothes and wandered into the conservatory, where he found Lexie on the floor, wearing jeans and a hoodie, doing the splits, eating a sandwich. To anyone else this would have been very strange, but having known Lexie for years he had come accustomed to her randomness, and simply shook it off. "Lex, Kurt's coming over to watch a DVD tonight" she turned the top half of her body around, eyebrows raised "you saw him around 3 hours ago, and you've already set up a date with him, damn you two just can't keep your hands off each other" Blaine blushed as he imagined his hands wrapped around Kurt's waist, and then shook his head free of this image "actually, he wants to come and watch the new edition of beauty and the beast" Lexie then got up, and turned around "admit it Blaine, you like him" Lexie folded her arms "Of course I do, we're friends I'm like his gay mentor" Blaine's voice broke slightly at the word friends, Lexie picked up on it straight away "I want a straight answer Blaine, no bullshit you can spin that tale to everyone else but not me" Blaine sighed " you want the truth Lexie, fine have the fricking truth, I'm in love with Kurt, every time he walks in the room, I think my chest is going to burst, every time I hear his name, I feel my will power crumble more and more and one day someone will just say Kurt and my mouth will run itself and tell the world, I'm in love with him" Blaine looked in a dream state thinking of Kurt, Lexie hugged him.
Lexie was smiling, her suspicions confirmed from both sides Right Kurt likes Blaine CONFIRMED Blaine likes Kurt CONFIRMED simple now, if they're having a movie night tonight…oh this is going to be fun, and definitely romantic, it has to be romantic, it'll be a first kiss between a couple, it needs to be romantic " erm, Blaine why don't you go change, you are not wearing that uniform any longer, go put on a pair of skinny jeans, the blue ones we brought today and a shirt smart/casual, and where are the Christmas decorations, mainly the lights etc." now Blaine looked confused at the sudden change of subject "Oh…Kay, they're in the garage on the shelves at the back." Blaine has a questioning look on his face but dropped it and went upstairs to change. Lexie picked up the box labelled lights and ceiling decorations, and thanked that Blaine was so organised and labelled boxes, picked it up and went to the dining room.
Kurt pulled up outside Blaine's huge house, he wasn't too nervous, he didn't shake anymore, he didn't get sweaty hands before he entered, but he still got butterflies filling his stomach before he entered Blaine's house, because it meant spending quality time with Blaine. He came up to the door and it was opened just before Kurt reached for the doorbell, Blaine stood in front of him, "Sorry, I didn't trust Lexie to open the door, so I wanted to open the door first so I jumped once I heard the bell" Kurt frowned "I hadn't rung the bell yet" Blaine blushed Damn he hadn't actually rung the bell yet, I wonder if he knows you were staring out of the peep hole in the door, I bet he does, he probably think you are so sad, staring out of the peep hole, damn say something, cover it up, or blank it, pretend it didn't happen that's best, or you could laugh it off, wait no that's just embarrassing, ignore it just pretend that never happened "well yeah, let's go watch the film, quickly before Lexie shows up".
Kurt followed Blaine to their Living room, "right we never decided on a film, you pick" Blaine sat down and motioned Kurt towards a large wardrobe in the corner, Kurt opened the doors and saw the stacks of DVD's towering form the floor to the ceiling. He went to pick up RENT but stopped himself, remembering what Lexie said about Blaine, the real Blaine I want to know the real Blaine his mind flashed to Lexie stroking her hand up the wall and saying about the Harry potter poster. Kurt immediately picked out Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone, and stuck it into the DVD player without looking at Blaine. Once he turned around Blaine was looking at him with raised eyebrows, Kurt nodded his head to the side, and Blaine did the same, seemingly accepting his choice in film. They both sat on the sofa, not exactly close together, but they were not at opposite ends, "It's been a while since I watched this" Blaine smiled, and Kurt moved closer towards Blaine.
Lexie's head popped up behind them through the large window behind them, she cupped her hands around her face and stared in. Blaine and Kurt where now roughly 30cm away from each other, Kurt's hair is always flipping pristine, lucky little bugger, I can see why Blaine likes it, he also remembered the harry potter thing, look at Blaine, he's got his arm stretched along the back of the sofa, he wants to cuddle with Kurt, maybe I don't need to intervene. My Gosh Blaine still knows all the words off by heart he's mouthing them along with the actors, he is such a Harry Potter Nerd. Oh Kurt's just noticed, he's smiling and now he should, he's not why is he not moving closer, he's not moving at all, Oh come on you can basically see the electricity sparking between then. That's it I'm intervening now.
Kurt was smiling at Blaine; He knows all the words of by heart, that's really cute, if this is the real Blaine I definitely like him. Am I meant to move closer, Woops I haven't, he's put his arm behind me, kind of, but not in a huggy way I don't think. CONFUSION.
Suddenly everything went black, TV shut off, and the only light was coming from a streetlight through a gap in the curtains "OI BLAINE POWERS OUT, HOW THE HELL DO I FIX THE FUSE BOX!" Blaine stood up and put his hand on Kurt's Shoulder, "come on the fuse box is in the cupboard in the dining room". Kurt followed Blaine into the dining room, Lexie was standing by the door, and nodded inwards as if to say ' I haven't a clue what I'm doing, you try' Blaine went inside towards the cupboard, Kurt mindlessly followed not noticing Lexie not going in and waiting outside the door.
Blaine flicked the fuse and the power went back on, without turning around Blaine began to tidying things up in the cupboard "Honestly I don't know how things get messy this messy in here, damn fuse box, cutting out during our film, Lexie, you know how to flick a flipping fuse. Honestly, Kurt, Kurt you going to say something" Blaine turned around and was blinded by hundreds of white twinkling light scattering the room, mistletoe hanging from the ceiling in front of the door, in front of the cupboard in and the centre of the room, Blaine was standing under the mistletoe, originally with Kurt who had just realised where they were standing and jumped back. Before either could react they heard a shout outside the door, "Oh Shit it's fallen in front of the door and it's too heavy for me" Lexie had a hint of sarcasm in her voice. Both boys ran and started shoving against the door "it won't open, Lexie what the hell?" Lexie smirked "Oh the new furniture boxes just fell in front of the door, I can't open it, I'll find something or someone to move it" Lexie took her time walking out the back door to find something she could use to lift the giant heavy furniture box, she had just pushed over in front of the door. Right romantic setting, Christmas lights and mistletoe, admittedly it's a bit old fashioned, but still. Plenty of time for them to kiss easy. Crap how in hell do I move that box?
Blaine slid down the side of the wall until he sat on the floor. That bitch she planned this, the lights and mistletoe, she planned this, that meddling child, my gosh, she probably thought this was romantic. It kind of is, I mean it look pretty, Kurt looks amazing, the white light looks amazing on him, that's just amazing, he's like…glowing, no he is not, you can't say that, maybe I'm supposed to kiss him, no that's just what Lexie wants, he looks so nervous its cute, wait no not cute, you can't call him cute Blaine, but he definitely is. He's turned away god I'm creeping him out, wow his butt looks great in those… wait…Blaine…NO! you're not allowed to think that, hmm I can look at it though, NO wait… just say something, "honestly leave Lexie alone in a room and this is what she does" Kurt turned around, as Blaine motioned towards the ceiling, "she should be back any minute with something to move the box its fine we'll be out any second" Blaine stood up and pressed against the door again as if Lexie had already returned and silently moved the box and not said anything. Kurt turned away and began to pace, to distract himself from Blaine and to hide the blush creeping up his face. This is so sweet, the lights, the mistletoe and the Blaine...Blaine, is just a mentor shut up, I really want to kiss him right, now he looks so great so relaxed, damn my palms are sweating, ok, just be fine, ok breathe deeply and calm down, ok, ok, ok, my god he's hot, no not hot, jut erm, handsome, no, just oh my god, deep breaths.
Kurt's breathing although he was unaware of it was very loud and Blaine began to be worried that Kurt was freaking out, he walked over to Kurt and began to stroke his arm, "are you ok? Don't worry we'll be out in a sec" Kurt turned to face him, ready to tell him he was actually fine, but was caught in Blaine's eye line, it froze Kurt and Kurt couldn't remember what he was about to say, he just stared at Blaine fascinated with him, he wasn't doing anything particularly special, just him, Blaine had put Kurt in a trance. This doesn't mean Blaine wasn't affected, Blaine was suddenly lost, Kurt's mouth was hanging open slightly and Blaine eyes were locked on them, the Christmas lights in the room, made his lips shine, Blaine was mesmerized and was losing control of his actions, so much so that he licked his lips and Kurt noticed, Kurt began to lean forwards feeling the heat radiating from his body more and more. Blaine leaned in too; they were cm away from each other, when Kurt's mobile went off.
Kurt hesitated, breathed in deeply as if trying to make an imprint of this moment on his mind, and then turned his head away to answer his phone. Blaine took his hand off of Kurt's arm, and sat up straight and shuffled away "erm it's my dad, he says I need to get home and help carol cook" Kurt stood up and went to open the door, as he grabbed the handle he remembered the door was blocked. Blaine smiled and got up "yeah, blocked remember, erm just..." Blaine moved Kurt from the door "LEXIE, LEXIE LEX" just then the boys heard a crash, "I've got a wheelbarrow, I'll use it as a lever to move the box enough to get the door open, how you boys doing in there" Lexie smirked, I bet those boys have just had a lovely romantic moment, aww I can't wait to hear about it, that boy is going to be so happy. Lexie wedged the box out of the way and opened the door, Kurt came out the door first and he looked embarrassed and in a rush "hey Lexie, sorry dad, and erm yeah, gotta run" and in one swift movement Kurt was out of the door and gone. Lexie was frowning in confusing, a look of utter disbelief on her face. Blaine came out, looking also embarrasses, disappointed but thankful. "You couldn't have left me alone, Lex, it's my life, and you don't need to meddle…" Lexie put her hands on her hips "now I think you'll find I did, now explain" Blaine smiled and continued "I'm not mad, at you, it was lovely actually and thank you, it's just" Blaine sighed and his shoulders dropped into a slouch disappointment was now the only emotion to cross his face. "You know what I think I'm going to go up" Blaine spun round and made his way to his room. Lexie looked at the clock, it was 8:30, and she desperately wanted to know what had happened, but seeing Blaine's face, told her plenty, now was not the time for an interrogation, and Blaine wanted to be alone.
Blaine went up to his room, and sat with his knees drawn up to his chest, think of Kurt. Kurt was distracted his wholes drive home, with Blaine on his mind. They both knew this was a much bigger spark of electricity than simply holding hands, both where disappointed, so close and…nothing.
what did you think? reviews are amazing :D
