.:My Man:.
Chapter Four: Friday
Blaine's Dorm Before Breakfast
Blaine had to find courage. He didn't sleep well at all last night, tossing and turning, his mind racing to try and figure out what to do, what to say. Jeremiah was out of the picture, he saw himself with no one other than Kurt, and he didn't want to be with anyone but Kurt. He paced the floor waiting for something to come to him, anything…
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Blaine opened the door to Wes. Confused for a second until he realized Wes was there to meet up with him to walk to breakfast.
"Hey Wes, can I talk to you for a minute?" Blaine asked motioning for him to come into the room.
"Yeah, sure Blaine!" Wes said taking a seat at his desk chair and hiding a knew what this was about and was thrilled to see the plan work.
Blaine sat on the edge of his bed and sighed into a slump, thinking of what he wanted to say. He took a deep breath.
"Wes, I think… I am, in love Kurt!" Blaine exhaled. His eyes furrowed in hopelessness.
"I know!" Wes said like he was talking about the weather.
"I know… Wait, what… How could you have known? I just… Huh?" Blaine asked in confusion.
"Everyone knows… Everyone knew except for you." Wes answered laughing.
Blaine blushed and laid back on his bed.
"Was I that obvious?" Blaine asked.
"Yeah!" Wes replied, "And you know he's in love with you to!" Wes stated.
Blaine shot up from the bed in shock.
"What? Really? Are you sure?" Blaine kept asking.
"Yes. You guys are practically inseparable, you flirt a lot, you blush when he looks at you, anytime his name is mentioned your eyes light up, and anytime he sings you go off into space with the most adorkable face. He does the same thing. You two just belong together." Wes said convincing him.
Blaine just sat and let what Wes just said sink in a little. Through the silence Wes was cheering inside his head.
Ha! It worked and we didn't even need phase three or four. We did good, we got them together, oh how cute they'll be together…-
Wes' thoughts were interrupted by Blaine's sigh.
"What do I do? I mean of course the gap thing is cancelled, but I mean I'm clueless on how to approach Kurt." Blaine started.
"Do to Kurt what you planned for Jeremiah. Serenade him on Valentine's Day and ask him out." Wes said as an idea.
"Is that romantic? Do you think he'd like that? You don't think it's too much?" Blaine got up and paced once more over thinking and worrying.
"Blaine calm down. You told me Kurt agreed serenading someone on Valentine's isn't too much. He must like the idea if he thought you should do it. It's totally romantic, and making it a surprise just makes it more so." Wes said standing up and grabbing Blaine's shoulders to calm him.
"Okay. Okay, umm… Wow, I can't believe I'm doing this! Wait how do I explain the cancelled Gap attack thing?" Blaine said trying to breathe and think straight again.
"I got it covered. Skip rehearsal and I'll tell them you saw Jeremiah with another guy and you're really down. You just practice the song and I'll tell Jeff he's going first, then Kurt, and then you for the Breadsticks performance. We'll replace our group number with your song. Okay? Then Saturday and Sunday I'll call an emergency meeting of the Warblers, minus Kurt, and you can show us what you want us to do." Wes said with a smile.
"You guys were planning this all along weren't you?" Blaine asked suspiciously at the quickly thought plan.
"How could you tell?" Wes laughed, "We knew Jeremiah wasn't the one for you so Jeff, Nick, and I were trying to devise a plan to get you two together. And it worked, differently than planned, but it was successful." Wes said
Blaine was speechless, he didn't know whether to punch Wes or to hug him. So he did both.
"Ouch! What was that for?" Wes asked grabbing his arm.
"That is for playing cupid behind my back." Blaine said before wrapping his arms around Wes giving him a hug, "But, thank you!"
Wes just smiled and hugged him back, patting his back before pulling away.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's get to breakfast!" Wes said.
Warbler's Rehearsal
Rehearsal started and Blaine was nowhere to be found. Kurt was getting a little worried seeing as he saw him in the halls between classes. Kurt heard the gavel and Wes' voice, so he moved his worry to the back of his mind and tried to concentrate.
"Okay guys, before we start rehearsing for Breadsticks I have some news. Blaine was out for coffee last night when he saw Jeremiah with another guy, so he's a little upset and won't be here today." The room filled with awes, even from Kurt, though he was secretly cheering on the inside, "So the Gap Attack has been cancelled. This won't interfere with the other performance, but I am going to rearrange the numbers. Jeff you will sing first, then Kurt you will go on, and then we will close the show as a group with Nick leading seeing as Blaine most likely won't be there." Wes explained and Nick and Jeff looked confused, and Kurt looked a little disappointed and worried about Blaine.
I guess the plan didn't work. Oh well, at least Jeremiah is out… I just hope Blaine is okay and not too crushed. I'll go check on him after rehearsal like the good friend I am… Friend! Kurt thought. He was certainly starting to hate the word friend. Rehearsal was filled with Jeff and Kurt working on their songs, then learning their group dance number. Rehearsal was dismissed and Kurt left quickly to go check on Blaine, which gave Wes time to explain to Nick and Jeff what happened and the new plan. They all smiled, and high fived in celebration on being successful cupids. Wes immediately got his phone out and texted everyone, but Kurt and Blaine.
Secret emergency Warbler's meeting tomorrow 12. Do NOT mention this to or around Kurt. Explanation tomorrow.-Wes
Blaine's Dorm Post Rehearsal
"Blaine! Blaine? I heard what happened. I am so sorry, are you okay? Is there anything I can do?" Kurt asked through soft knocks. He heard some shuffling and tried to open the door, but it was locked.
"Kurt. I'm fine, I just want to be alone for a little bit… Thanks though." Blaine sounded as depressed as he could.
He had jumped when he heard Kurt through the door, but tried to play it off, he just couldn't help but smile at how Kurt came to check on him, was there for him, and willing to do anything to help him. He wanted nothing more than to open the door and profess his feelings, but he was going to wait and make this special… Perfect. God knows Kurt deserves it.
"Okay, as long as you are alright. If you need anything or you want to talk just text me or come to my dorm." Kurt said sad to hear his friend so depressed, but mad at the guy who did this to him.
Kurt walked back to his dorm and sat his phone on the desk hoping Blaine would call or text. He changed into his pajamas and laid on the bed trying to rest, relax, something, but all he could do was lay down, hands folded across his stomach and stare at the ceiling, at his phone, sigh, and then look at the ceiling again. He hoped Blaine was truly okay and God help him if he ever saw Jeremiah…
Kurt through him from his mind and concentrated on Blaine. He began humming Why Can't I and fell asleep in the middle of the chorus. That night he dreamt of punching Jeremiah in the face and walking away, hand in hand with Blaine.
If only he knew what Blaine has been planning.
