Hello, hello. It's been a while. Almost two months, I feel really bad, but it's been really stressful with homework, and tests, and I'm also on the basketball team now. Which literally takes up all of my time. OH! I also did NaNoWriMo, so that also delayed a new chapter. I WILL FINISH MY NOVEL, and if you like my writing enough, I will be uploading it to Fiction Press when it is finished! But for now, CHAPTER 8.


Two weeks had passed since Blaine left Kurt's house that morning, and it was suddenly the night before the first day of school.

"I really can't believe summer's over already." Kurt said, rummaging through his closet, looking for an outfit that was "first-day" material.

"Me either. It's been a long summer break." Blaine said, from the floor, avoiding the mount of clothes being piled onto the bed.

Kurt came out of the closet (an unavoidable pun, sorry), and started putting the clothes back, having finally selected his outfit.

"I won't get to see you as much…"

Blaine looked up at Kurt, who had finished putting the clothes away, and was just standing in the closet. "Kurt…"

"Wow, that was really depressing. Sorry, I shouldn't have said that." Kurt said, walking back to the bed and sitting down. "I mean it's not like I'm trying to guilt you into transferring into Mckinely. The Warblers need you, and Dalton's like your home away from home. I mean, it'd be a lie if I said it wouldn't be lonely without you, but that doesn't matter. I mean, yeah it does, but I..I just…" Kurt trailed off, his face turning a deep red, as he tried catching his breath. Suddenly he stood up. "I'm not mad or anything, but maybe it's time for you to go home?" Kurt said quietly, his back to Blaine.

"Kurt, wait a second―"

"Sorry, I just…want to make sure that I get enough sleep and stuff you know? And I haven't gone through my moisturizing routing either." Kurt said, pulling Blaine off of the bed, and pushing him towards his bedroom door.

"Wait, Kurt, I wanted to tell you something―"

"You can tell me after school tomorrow. Lima Bean, okay?" Kurt gave him a quick peck on the lips, and gently closed the door in Blaine's face.

Blaine pondered trying to talk to Kurt through the door, but decided against it. "I love you, Kurt. See you tomorrow." Blaine placed a hand on the door, and kissed it where he imagined Kurt would be, before turning around and walking down the hall.

Kurt flipped the switch on the wall, and the room went dark. He walked over to his bed, and laid down, burying his face into his pillow as he silently cried himself to sleep, forgetting his moisturizing routine.


Kurt opened his locker and began decorating it with pictures; some of Blaine and himself, one of Burt and Carole, one of Finn and himself, and one of the Hummel-Hudson family. Rachel had managed to get into a picture of Finn.

It would be another ten minutes before anyone else would show up for school that morning.

On his locker door hung a beautiful picture of Blaine and himself, and above the picture was the word "Courage."

Kurt smiled as he touched the picture. "I miss you," he said to the Blaine inside of the photo.

"I miss you, too." A voice said, as a pair of arms slipped around his waist from behind.

Kurt looked down at the arms around him. "Why are you here, and where's your blazer? You're going to be late for school." He said, turning around to look into the pair of hazel eyes.

"Actually, I thought I was early for school." Blaine said, kissing him sweetly on the lips.

Kurt was confused. "What are you talking about?"

Blaine laughed. "Kurt. Just think about it. Why would I be here this early in the morning?"

Blaine could tell the moment it clicked, by the look on Kurt's face. "Blaine…"

"Before you say anything, I've been thinking about doing this for a while. When you transferred back to McKinley, I honestly felt so lonely, not being able to see you all the time, and even though it killed me to tell the warblers that I needed to go, I just had to." Blaine said, taking Kurt's hands in his own. "And they understood. They understand that…I'm madly in love with you, Kurt. I hope you'll let me stay." He said, smiling.

Kurt smiled back. "I just wished you would have told me sooner."

"I tried! Last night! But, you weren't having it." Blaine said, making them both laugh.

"Thanks for doing this." Kurt said, after calming down. "I love you."

"I love you, too." Blaine said, leaning in and capturing Kurt's lips in another kiss, as he snaked his arms around him. He pulled him closer, deepening the kiss.

Finally, Kurt pulled back. "We should probably stop now. We don't want anyone catching our PDA, do we?" Kurt said.

"Yeah, that would probably be a bad idea. How about you just show me where my classes are?" Blaine asked, pulling a folded piece of paper out of his pocket, and handing it to him.

"You've been here so many time, I'm pretty sure you know where to go." Kurt said, but taking the schedule anyway. "How'd you get your dad to let you transfer?"

"He's actually a nice guy, you know! You wouldn't believe what he told me. I was asking him about transferring, and that the reason was to be with you, and he launched into this story about when he was in high school and, get this, his boyfriend had to move to another school!" Blaine said.

"Your dad is gay?" Kurt asked, surprised.

"Yeah. Turns out, his parents hired his boyfriend's parents and sent them to a different state, forcing them to move. After that, he was forced into an arranged marriage with my 'mother.'

"Anyway. He told me that story and basically said that he didn't want what happened to him to happen to me, so here I am." Blaine finished with a smile. "Nate is in the office, finishing up now." He added with a smirk.

"Yeah, yeah. You already got your money."

"This is true."

"But, you just like being right."

"That is also true." Blaine said, with a small laugh. "Now! Classrooms?"

"Alright, alright." Kurt said, shutting his locker. "Let's go."


What the hell? Gel head fairy transferred to McKinley? thought David Karofsky, as he slipped out of a classroom. He watched silently as the couple walked down the hall. His gaze fell upon their interlocked fingers, and he scowled, which soon turned into a smug smile. I guess I should step in and help move the relationship along. I mean, that would be nice of me wouldn't it?


Okay, I feel really bad that it's been almost two months, and I wrote a really short chapter. I also feel even worse, because there are about 2 or 3 more chapters left! AARRGGHH! No fair no fair. Meanwhile, that oneshot I told you about? I still need to finish that. I'm just having trouble, because it's really fluffy, and I can't find the words I need to make it smutty for some reason, so I'm sorry if it sucks when I finally post it. But still, thanks for sticking with me thus far, and I'll see you next update.
