-Chapter 3: Too Little Too Late

By: Kahlan

After a wonderful date with Wes the night before, waking up to someone knocking on the door at six am was not part of Kurt's agenda. Kurt reached over the bed and grabbed a shoe and threw it at the door. It bounced off with a satisfying crack. Kurt rolled over and yanked his pillow over his head. But the knocking started again. Kurt huffed and sat up. He jerked on his Liz Claiborne dressing gown and swung the door open, ready to tell whoever to piss off. What he wasn't expecting was Blaine standing there with coffee. Kurt was speechless for a moment, thinking he was still dreaming. When he was able to speak, he said.

"It is six bloody AM! What the hell are you doing?" Blaine's smile slightly decreased.

"I just thought you'd like some coffee. It's your favorite." Blaine held the cup out for him.

Kurt looked down at the coffee and noticed it was made to his high maintenance, but damn does he like it, coffee tastes. Taking the coffee, he moves out of the doorway and let's Blaine come in. He flops back on the bed and Blaine sits on it. They talk for a few minutes about nothing, because while Blaine may have turned him down, they're still friends. Kurt actually thought the awkwardness of the past week had passed when Blaine casually says.

"So I heard you and Wes went out." Time froze and Kurt sat up.

"Uh yeah, he asked me out and I said yes so…yeah."

"So how did it go?" Blaine wanted to know everything and nothing at the same time.

"He took me to dinner and then we got sno-cones and walked in the park and talked for hours. He's very interesting."

"Yeah, I know. He's been my friend for a while."

"We're actually going out again tonight since we don't have curfew on Saturdays. He's so sweet."

"So when did you become interested in Wes?" Blaine asked, casually.

"When he asked me out yesterday." Kurt took a sip of his coffee. "So why are you here at 6:00am?"

"Couldn't sleep so I figured I'd come chat with you."

"Oh so it's okay to interrupt MY beauty sleep, uh?"

"You don't need beauty sleep. You're already beautiful." Blaine stared at Kurt in earnest.

Kurt looked away, uncomfortable. He was not going to let this get to his head. Blaine was not interested and Wes and he had something going for them. An awkward silence fell over them.

"So what's your plan for the day?" Blaine asked Kurt.

"Well, not much, since Wes and I are going to be out late, I figured I'd sleep in this morning and then maybe going shopping. Well that's out now."

"Well maybe, the sleeping part is but why don't we go shopping? Hmm, what do you say?"

"I never turn down shopping."

A/N: Not very long, but I'm hitting a road block and can't get the characters to do what I want. I decided maybe taking them shopping would get them to corporate.
