Chapter Three.
Another nightmare. Another sleepless night spent under the cool porcelain of the sink, though this time with added bile, mainly due to the small overdose of sleeping pills he had taken before. He thought about texting Kurt, though – "Waking up unintentionally is bad for the vocal chords!" as Kurt had spouted out countless times. He texted Sebastian instead, "Hey you!xxx". Blaine was surprised when he actually got a reply, one reason being it was 3:44 in the morning, another reason being it was almost instant. "Hola Night-Owl, what's keeping you up?xxxx"
Blaine went on to explain his nightmare. About how he and his Dalton friends were trapped in a huge fire and lost their beloved music coach, and how he thought he should stop taking the sleeping pills but he couldn't. Not once did Sebastian fall asleep or stop replying. The pair were talking for over two hours easily, though by the end both we're both far too tired to talk, so agreed to meet up the next morning for brunch and cuddles and call it a night.
"What's the story morning glory?" Sebastian snickered as Blaine arrived.
"Charming, panda eyes." Blaine retorted.
"Ooh, touchy, touchy, sit that tight ass of yours down and let's share an omelette." Sebastian giggled.
"Sounds delightful! Cheese and bacon with extra cheese and bacon?" Blaine asked.
"Wonderful! Any crispy bits of bacon are mine!" Sebastian laughed.
"You can fuck right off!"
The omelette was lovely, however the juice was too sweet for Sebastian, yet too tart for Blaine. They agreed to strongly disagree.
"Do you have nightmares often then?" Sebastian said, changing the topic of conversation.
"Every night this week, Baby." Chuckled Blaine.
"Really? You know you could've called me?" Sebastian said, a concerned look appeared on his face.
"You'd really stay awake for lil' old me?" Blaine winked.
"Of course! I hate to think of you just scared and alone all the night, it makes me sick!" Sebastian said, slyly reaching his hand across the table to hold Blaine's.
"Don't concern yourself! No one needs to worry about me!" Blaine cried, squeezing Sebastian's hand.
"Well I do, and you should care about yourself!" Sebastian said, leaning closer towards Blaine.
"Maybe it's because I care about others too much?" Blaine smiled, naturally leaning towards Sebastian so they two boys heads were touching.
"Mmm, you do, silly boy." Sebastian grinned, "Maybe I should stay with you tonight, make sure you're okay?"
"I'd love that, I really would."
"So it's a plan, I'll get there at eight?" Sebastian moved in closer.
"Why don't you just stay the whole day?"
"Gladly."
The Waiter awkwardly grabbing the check, giving the men the freedom to leave, pulled the two apart.
"So!" Sebastian grinned, "What next?"
"We could go to my place and hang there, I have a few levels of angry birds I need to complete." Blaine smiled.
"Dude, you're such a dork!" Sebastian playfully pushed Blaine.
"At least I'm not a…a…." Blaine lost his words.
"A what?" Sebastian leaned in again, "A nerd? A girl?" Sebastian chuckled.
Suddenly, Blaine's phone went off, obviously Kurt calling.
"You've got to be quiet when I'm on the phone, he'll freak out if I'm talking to you!" Blaine pushed Sebastian away, straight into a bush making the two of them burst into muffled laughter.
"Kurt! Hey!" Blaine answered, still giggling.
"Hi Blaine! How have you been?" Kurt answered flatly.
"Oh, you don't sound to happy, what's up?"
"Oh nothing, NYADA's harder than it looks. Rachel's doing fine, acing all the tests and the songs, I guess I just feel average."
"Kurt Hummel – Average" Blaine mockingly repeated, "Kurt Hummel you are not average!"
"I am! There are guys here who can sing higher than me! Me, Blaine!"
"So? You'll catch up. You've come so far in the two years that I've known you!"
"Thanks, I got to dash, its freshman auditions for the musical, wish me luck, Lord knows I'll need it."
"You'll ace it, see ya!"
"Oh, Blaine I-" 'Called Dropped'
"Oh Lord, what a Drama Queen!" Sebastian laughed, pulling twigs out of his hair.
"Aww, don't be mean, he's sweet!" Blaine hastily replied.
"Whatever you say snook-kums." Sebastian said.
"Thanks, fat ass." growled Blaine jokingly.
"Cheers, now, how do we get to your place?"
"Follow me!" Blaine said, running off into the distance.
