A/N: Please don't hate me for not updating. I've been having a lot of personal issues as well as being sick, so I haven't gotten around to typing up this chapter. Plus, I've been absorbed in the Canucks/Bruins Stanley Cup finals! However, since I was home sick today, I figured I might as well post the next chapter. I beg you, kind readers, to please send me ideas of what to write next. Chapter 8 will probably be some sucky drabble about Nutella, as my friend Natty is the only one who has responded. For the love of all things Klaine, please help, and I promise, I will credit you and send you virtual cookies. Also, bonus points to the first person who can name the Elf reference in here!
Gleek-Bertha-Cecily: Jeg slags elsker deg akkurat nå. Jeg håper du vil bli fornøyd med Oliver! referanse i dette kapitlet - Jeg elsker det også, og jeg er en Artful Dodger fan i tillegg: D og jeg er litt besatt med norske, så jegsetter pris på svaret ditt på norsk. Jeg sender deg virtuelle cookies, så jeg håper du liker dem. Beklager om romanen, det er bare så fantastisk å finne noen som er like storslått som du er og hvem liker Glee og Oliver!
kurtcoblaine290: Woohoo! Go Alex! :D
TheLuciferPerson: Me either :P it kinda just randomly showed up there, and I was like, "WTF?" but then I realized that it fit perfectly!
Disclaimer: Vel, siden jeg har tatt å skrive erklæringer om ansvarsfraskrivelse inorsk, skjønte jeg at jeg kan like godt fortsette det. Anyways, selv om jeg har lyst på meg selv Artful Dodger, jeg eier Oliver! ellerGlee's eget Dodger, Chris Colfer, heller ikke jeg eier "Lucky" avJason Mraz og Colbie Caillat. Pokker, jeg eier noe fra Glee.
Chapter 7: I'd Do Anything
Kurt sat across from Blaine in stunned silence. Blaine was wondering if he hadn't explained enough, so he continued.
"Kurt, I know you can't come back to Dalton, but I need you to be safe. I figured that even though Karofsky is quiet for now, he could easily come back to hurt you. Being there to protect you myself is the easiest way to ensure that you are okay," Blaine explained.
"I don't get it," Kurt said, tears in his eyes. "You're throwing away a prep school education just to keep a few closed-minded jerks from picking on me?"
Blaine smiled and, although it was very clichéd, replied, "I'd do anything for you, Kurt." Then, looking Kurt in the eye and taking his hands, Blaine did what he does best: he decided to express his feelings through song.
I'd do anything
For you, dear, anything
For you mean everything
To me
I know that I'd go anywhere
For your smile, anywhere
For your smile, everywhere
To see
Blaine winked at Kurt and kissed him on the cheek. Kurt smiled at Blaine and said, "You missed."
"What?" Blaine asked, confused.
Kurt repeated, "You missed," and kissed Blaine fully on the lips.
Blaine knew at that moment that he had made the right choice.
After a delicious meal, Blaine drove Kurt home. During the drive, Kurt asked Blaine numerous questions about the details of his attending McKinley.
"When do you start?" Kurt inquired.
"Tomorrow," Blaine replied. "The office secretaries at Dalton were happy to help once I had explained the situation. They all love you, I've noticed, but who could blame them?"
Kurt blushed. "What homeroom are you in? I hope it's not Mr. Cratterson. He's such a homophobic son of a-"
"Relax, babe," Blaine interrupted. "It's okay. I'm in your homeroom, Mr. Schuester's. He and I talked to the principal about it. Figgins almost put me in Sylvester." He shuddered.
"Speaking of Mr. Schue," Kurt thought aloud, "are you joining New Directions?"
"Well, I didn't wanna disrupt the balance, so I said no at first, but Cedes and Rachel kept bugging me, so of course I had to agree."
Kurt frowned at Blaine. "Wait," he said slowly, "my best friends knew about this the whole time and they didn't tell me?" He shook his head. "Clever little girls."
Blaine laughed as Kurt began to smile. "Well, I forced them into secrecy by blackmailing them," Blaine explained. "I had evidence, shall we say, that convinced them to stay quiet."
Blaine pulled into Kurt's driveway. He looked into Kurt's eyes and said, "We're home."
"What do you mean by 'we're?'" the countertenor asked, puzzled.
Blaine smiled and said, "It's our home. I'm moving in with you guys."
The look of joy on Kurt's face was priceless.
"All right, boys, let's get some rules straight," Burt said to his sons and Blaine, not noticing his accidental pun. "Rule number one: everyone sleeps in their own beds. No sharing." He stared at Kurt and Blaine. "Number two: everyone helps with chores unless he or she is physically incapable. Number three-" he was focused intensely on Blaine now, "-I expect all of you to make smart decisions. No drinking and...use...protection." All of the boys groaned and rolled their eyes at this part, but Burt ignored their comments and continued. "Anyone who violated these rules will be severely punished. Understand?"
A chorus of "Yes, sir" came from the teens, and Burt nodded.
"Good. I'm glad we're all on the same page," he said. "Kurt, will you show Blaine to his room?"
Kurt smiled and said, "Of course, Dad." Then he told Blaine, "Follow me!" and grabbed his hand.
"Oh, and Blaine?" Burt called after the ex-Warbler.
Blaine walked over to Burt. "Yes?" he answered.
"Welcome to our home," Burt said gruffly, but Blaine knew how sincere he was.
That night, Kurt and Blaine sat on Kurt's bed Skyping with various New Directions members. Artie was with Mercedes and Sam, Tina was with Mike, Rachel and Finn were together at her house, the three cheerleaders shared Santana's camera, and Puck and Lauren had silently disappeared about five minutes after they'd started talking.
"Damn, Kurt, you've got a good one there!" Tina exclaimed, winking. "He would transfer for you and everything."
Mike frowned. "What about me, baby? Aren't I a good boyfriend too?"
Tina kissed his cheek. "Of course you are, sweetheart."
Mike giggled, and the two gave each other butterfly kisses until they heard Quinn clear her throat loudly.
"All right, can we get done with the love fest here?" Quinn snapped angrily. "I thought we were gonna talk about Blaine joining New Directions. Should he audition?"
"I, for one, think that his previous performances should suffice," Rachel interjected.
"Nobody gives a damn about what you think," Mercedes declared. "Let the white boy speak for himself. Blainey-boy, what do you want? You wanna sing the audition?"
Blaine glanced at Kurt, who nodded slightly. Blaine looked to the members and asked, "Can I do the audition now?"
Everyone present made noises of approval, so Blaine continued. "Actually, my song is a duet. Would you mind?" After several people shook their heads, he turned to Kurt. "Would you sing this with me?" Blaine then showed his boyfriend the name of his song choice.
Kurt blushed. "I'd love to," he whispered lovingly to Blaine. He handed Blaine a guitar and said, "I'm guessing you know the chords." Blaine nodded in response.
"Go ahead, Midget," Santana instructed. "Show us what you've got."
Blaine began strumming and instantly lost himself in the song. He began with the first line:
Do ya hear me? I'm talking to you
Across the water, across the deep blue
Ocean, under the open sky
Oh my, baby, I'm trying
Kurt came in next, his voice high and sweet.
Boy, I hear you in my dreams
Feel you whisper across the sea
Keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
They both sang the chorus in flawless harmony:
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Kurt and Blaine finished the song, both close to tears. They embraces, whispering "I love you" in each other's ears. A quick glance at the other teens showed just how moving their performance was.
"So, am I in?" Blaine asked, half-joking.
"Hell to the yeah!" Mercedes exclaimed, and everybody cheered.
After they had said their goodbyes on Skype, Blaine and Kurt sat alone on the bed. Kurt was beaming at his boyfriend, and Blaine smiled too. They stayed quiet for a few moments before Kurt finally broke the comfortable silence.
"Darling, I am so proud of you. You were better than Mr. A-Z himself," he gushed.
Blaine giggled. "Well, I couldn't have done it without my lovely Colbie Caillat here." He pulled Kurt closer, and they started to kiss. It started out slow and soft but gradually grew more passionate and urgent. Kurt wrapped his arms around Blaine's neck, and Blaine moved his down to Kurt's waist.
Kurt slowly began working his way down Blaine's face and neck, starting at the jawbone but gradually reaching his collarbone. Kurt traced patterns onto the back of Blaine's neck, and Blaine shuddered at the touch. He then began to unbutton Kurt's maroon and red plaid pajama top, but Kurt stopped him.
"Let's leave it at this point for tonight, okay?" Kurt told Blaine. It was more of a statement than a question.
"Oh, okay. I don't wanna push you any further than you want to go."
Kurt's heart swelled with love for his boyfriend. "Thank you for being so understanding," he whispered. "You're just so perfect."
Blaine laughed. "Hardly," he said, still chuckling. "I'm far from perfect, dear, you should know that."
Kurt grinned at Blaine's modesty. "Well, you're certainly very close to it." He glanced at the clock next to the bed. "I hate to kick you off the bed, but tomorrow is your first day at McKinley, and you heard what my dad said."
"Say no more, Kurt," Blaine whispered. "I'll go to my room now."
Blaine stood up and walked around to Kurt's side of the bed. He bent over and kissed the countertenor's forehead.
"Sweet dreams, my love. I'll see you in the morning," he cooed softly.
"See you, Blainey-Bear," Kurt murmured back. "I love you."
"I love you too, babe," Blaine replied as he left Kurt's room and wandered down the hall to his room.
What did I do to deserve him? Kurt wondered as he drifted to sleep. The brunette had one last image of his boyfriend's perfect face before his dreams took control.
A/N: Aww, they're so cute :D Anyways, please review and let me know what you wanna see in the next few chapters.
