Chapter 4
The Andersons, true to their word, kept Blaine and Sam busy looking at places for them to live. Over the next few days they looked at several different houses and condos in SoHo, and The East Village, but nothing seemed to catch their eye. Cooper went with them and adding his opinion like here was going to be living with them.
Just when they were about to give up, the last house they looked at in the village looked like it was made for them. It had a brown stone front. Through the front door were a foyer and a large open space living room/ dining room combo. It had a nice size kitchen w/ an island where they could put tall chairs to sit and eat. Off behind the kitchen a room had been added on. It had large windows to let in plenty of sun light tiled floors. This room would be perfect for Sam as an art studio.
The second floor had two large bedrooms, both w/ walk-in closets. The front room looked out onto the street while the second bedroom looked out over the yard. The bathroom was huge with a walk in shower and a large bathtub in the middle of it. There was also a spiral staircase that they did not notice by the back bedroom that went down into the added on room in the back of the house.
The place was pricey, but the boys loved it. They didn't want to look at any more houses. This was their dream house. Blaine's parents told the realtor who showed them the house that this will be purchasing this house and to get the paper work started. Even Cooper approved of the house, not that Blaine or Sam cared too much about Coop opinion.
Once the house hunting was over Blaine figured he could to see Kurt before they left to go back to Lima. Sam decided not to go with him and instead hung out with Cooper. Blaine called Kurt to see what time he got off from work and arranged to meet up with him.
"I'm so sorry we didn't get to spend more time together" Blaine said as he approached Kurt in the diner. "I didn't realize house hunting would be so time consuming."
"Yeah, it took all day and night. No time to even pick up the phone."
"I know, again I am so sorry about that."
"So, where's Sam? Aren't you two joined at the hip or something?"
"Sam decided to hang out with Coop so you and I can spend some time together just the two of us."
"So, both your parents and Coop just loves Sam. Must be nice."
"Kurt, my family likes you, and besides this is my last night here and I don't want to spend it arguing about Sam."
"You're right. I'm done here so let's go grab a coffee and chat."
Over coffee they talked about Kurt's new band, Blaine and Sam's new place and what Blaine planed to do the rest of the summer before the big move. They didn't discuss the status of their relationship because Kurt wanted to wait until after the move to have that discussion. Kurt was about to bring up talking to his boss about getting Blaine a job at the restaurant with him when Blaine's phone started to ring. Seeing it was Cooper, Blaine told Kurt he would be quick and answered the call.
As soon as he answered he heard Coop and Sam yelling about something.
"Will you two calm down, I can't understand what you're saying."
He heard his brother tell Sam.
"It was my idea, I called in the favor, so I should be the one to tell him."
Sam reluctantly agreed.
"Okay Squirt, I know that you and Sam are going to need jobs when you move here, and a friend of mine owes me a favor so I talked to him about you and Sam working in his restaurant, The Moon Light Lounge. He agreed to meet with you two tomorrow morning before you fly back to Lima, but you pretty much have the job. This is just a formality. The pay will be good and he said he will work around you class schedule once you two start school."
"Isn't that awesome dude? We get to live together and work together."
"You're going to get sick of seeing my face all the time." Blaine said smiling, but when he looking up though he saw that Kurt was not smiling at all. He told Coop and Sam he would talk to them later and hung up.
"So, what was that all about?"
"Apparently Cooper called in a favor and got Sam and me a job at his friends restaurant. We meet with the guy tomorrow morning for an informal interview."
"Well, there goes my idea."
"What was your idea?"
"I was going to talk to my boss about hiring you at my job, so you and I can work together."
"I'm sorry Kurt, I didn't know. And I had no idea Cooper was planning on doing this for me."
"You can always turn down your brother's offer."
"And have him bitch, moan and complain that I don't appreciate him and his help? Yeah, I don't think so."
"Of course, we can't upset Cooper now can we?"
Blaine choose to ignore the hint of sarcasm in Kurt's voice.
Once they were done and ready to leave, Kurt asked if Blaine wanted to come back to his place to hang out for a while. Blaine thought Kurt wanted to spend some time alone with him, but he was wrong.
"You can finally meet Elliott, the other band member."
Blaine couldn't help but notice the excitement in Kurt's voice when he talked about Elliott. He decided to ignore that as well, for now. As they were leaving the coffee shop Blaine got a text from his mother,
'Blaine, your father and I need you to come back to the hotel. It's important, it's about the house.'
Blaine's face lost all color.
"Blaine, what's wrong? Who just texted you? You look like you've seen a ghost. "
"It's my mom. She needs me back at the hotel. She said it's important, something about the house. God, I hope nothing went wrong and Sam and I can still get this house."
"See, I knew that house sound too good to be true. Well go see what's going on. Call me tonight when this is taken care of. If it's not too late maybe we can grab a late diner."
Blaine told him he would call him later and rushed off to the hotel.
When Blaine got back to the hotel, he meet up with Cooper and Sam who also received text to come back to the hotel in regards to the house.
"You two got a text from mom and dad about the house too?"
"Yeah we did. I wonder what this is about." Sam said.
Getting on the elevator Sam and Blaine were really nervous on the ride up to their floor while Cooper seemed calm. Almost too calm, like he knew what this was about. When they got to their floor they rush into their suites looking for Blaine's parents.
Blaine's parents came out of their room looking like they were going out for the evening.
"Mom, we came as soon as we got your text. What's going in with the house? Please don't tell me something happened to prevent us from being able to buy it."
"No Blaine everything is going fine with the purchase. And since we are paying cash everything should be final within 2-3 weeks."
"Then why the urgent text and why are you two dressed up like you're going out?"
"That's because we are." Blaine's father said. "And you three are coming with us."
"Hold on a minute here. You had us rush back here, I ran out on Kurt again thinking something was wrong with the house and you just want to take us out to dinner." Blaine asked a little upset.
Blaine's mother stepped forward.
"Sweet heart, it's not just about going out to dinner because it's our last night in New York. It's also to celebrate that you and Sam have graduated from high school which is a big deal. It's to celebrate that you two have gotten into the colleges of your choice, and in a short time you will be leaving home and moving into your own place in a new city. You're no longer kids, you're young adults and we are so proud of you both. That's what this is really about."
Blaine, whose eyes were bright with unshed tears, looked at his mom and could see in her face that she meant every word she said.
"I thought that the party was for that."
"The party was for all of your friends to celebrate graduating. Tonight, this is your father, Cooper and myself showing you and Sam that we are proud of the two of you."
Then she turned to Sam.
"And Sam you are a part of this family so you might as well swallow that protest you were about to make and all three of you go and get changed so we can go."
Cooper had brought his clothes over earlier when he came over to get Sam.
As the boys went to go and change, Mrs. Anderson just looked at her husband and winked.
Blaine enjoyed dinner with his parents, Sam and Cooper. They talked and joked around and laughed all through the meal. It was then that Blaine realized how much he was going to miss his parents when he moved.
When they got back to the hotel he did call Kurt before he went to bed. Just as he thought Kurt was not happy to hear that his night with Blaine was cut short so his parents could take him and Sam out for a graduation dinner. Nor was he even invited. Needless to say that conversation was very short. Blaine hung up wondering if he even still wanted a relationship with Kurt with the way he has been acting lately.
The next morning, Blaine and Sam meet with Cooper's friend and the owner of The Moon Light Lounge, Peter Banks. He was impressed with their dedication and drive to work. He said he wasn't expecting that from someone Cooper recommended. He told them that they had the jobs and to contact him as soon as they moved here so they could fill out their paper work and set up a work schedule for them.
After that they went back to the hotel. Then they all could head out to the airport for their flight back to Lima. Blaine was going to try and call Kurt before he left, but decided to wait until he got home. He told himself he was just letting him have a chance to cool off, but really he just didn't feel like dealing with him at the moment, so he figured he would put it off until he got home.
