Klaine Week 2013 Day 5 Prompt: Anniversary. I can't believe it's been 2 years since Kurt and Blaine officially became Klaine. It's sad that they aren't together on their anniversary, but I know that wherever Kurt and Blaine are in the Glee universe, they are thinking of each other.
"Hello?"
"Hey." Kurt pulled his knees up to his chest, trying to refrain from shaking when he heard Blaine's voice on the opposite line. "How-how are you? I feel like we haven't talked in a while." He sounded sad, his voice slightly trembling.
Frozen with shock, Blaine hesitated to answer. "Good. I-I'm good," he stammered. "I rejoined the Cheerios so I've been really busy with practice, not to mention student council and preparing for Regionals in Glee club." A barely audible noise of affirmation told him Kurt was listening. "Wait, I'm confused. I thought you were working on a big audition this weekend. You said you weren't going to be able to talk at all."
"I am," Kurt quickly clarified. "Adam's here helping me."
"Wait," Blaine interrupted. "You left your new boyfriend so you could come call me? Isn't that kind of scandalous?" Kurt could practically see the shameless smirk present on Blaine's face through the phone.
Likewise, Blaine could sense Kurt rolling his eyes right now. That was one of the perks of knowing each other so well. Kurt shrugged. "I just needed to hear your voice, I guess."
Blaine was currently so overcome with giddiness that he flopped down on his bed, internally screaming. "So what's with the sudden interest in hearing my voice? You could call me anytime. It doesn't have to be when you're busy." Playfully bantering with Kurt was one of Blaine's absolutely favorite things to do, even if they are broken up.
"Like you don't know," Kurt replied with blatant sarcasm.
Yes, it's true. He knew. Even though Kurt had told him not to call this weekend, Blaine still spent the day fiddling with his phone, convincing himself that this day shouldn't mean anything anymore. Yet, it still meant everything. "Enlighten me, please." He desperately needed to hear Kurt say it, more than anything.
Kurt inhaled slowly, his voice lowering to a whisper. "If we were still, you know, together, it would be our two year anniversary."
Suddenly, Blaine's expression turned solemn, as his head was flooded with memories of what they had and fantasies of what could have been if certain circumstances had not interfered. "I, uh, I didn't expect you to call today, as much as I wanted you to. Normal couples that have broken up don't call each other on anniversaries."
"But since when were we a 'normal couple?'" Kurt smiled and felt tears start to well up in his eyes. He lifted his head, trying to prevent them from escaping. "It's just, I was trying to work on my audition, but I kept getting distracted. I couldn't concentrate because all I wanted to do was talk to you."
Blaine grinned as he felt his own tears start to drift down his face.
"Even after all we've been through this past year," Kurt continued, "I'm still never going to forget that time you first kissed me. It is still my favorite day, and I would never take it back for anything in the world."
Sitting up, Blaine said, "It's my favorite day too."
Kurt blinked out a few tears. "Well, I have to go." He couldn't keep talking; this hurt too much. "But I'm glad we got to talk."
"I am too."
"Blaine?"
"Yes?"
"I-I love you."
"I love you too, Kurt."
