Chapter 6
The Fashion Show
I can hear the people entering the front I move from the back towards the stairs watching as people fill in the seats I see faces of people that have graced covers I see my old boss I see family a friend or two I see people that are political figures and im all the sudden covered in sweat as I back from the steps towards David
"I, I, I" and I can't even form words other than letters at the moment my face is flush I can feel sweat ruining the light base foundation I have on I see David move for a moment as im frozen to my spot he's appearing with a towel and a promise to be by my side til this is over and he gently dabs my face to get the sweat off I see no make- up coming off I blink and wonder how he does that
"Thanks" I say shakily this is new to me the feeling he's giving me, the feeling the show's giving me, plus the shear terror of possible failure looming. There's press out there and I can see it already 'K. Beth total disaster' I shake my head as I see David watching me with curiosity
"Are you okay" he asks against wiping my hands down as they have become wet with sweat too then rubbing the back of my neck then grabs another champagne glass for me to relax it's been 2 hours since the first one and im riding high on nerves
"Yes" I say taking a sip and relaxing he's smiling at me as I start to come back to myself and now i'm super glad he's here, because the alternatives would be me panicking and everyone just doing there own thing or me with Blaine here telling me im just being a whiny bitch and that i'm always confident when it's not something this huge. Before all this he use to say it was adorable, now it just annoyed him so he left me for a chipmunk and with that thought I'm laughing out loud with everyone around me watching as if David has said something funny probably
"Kurt?" he asks questioning my sanity probably at this moment
"Yes?" I say looking up at him the evidence of my laughter is a huge smile still spread across my face
"What's so funny" his smile widens
"Oh, just thinking about how my ex left me for a chipmunk" My laughter coming back to me seeing David crack up in his own smile.
"Yea, that's odd" he says rejoining me in laughter, but it suddenly dies when a designer comes up to me asking me a question with the model with her pointing to a seam I check it and nod
"It's fine what heels she wearing" they reply by handing me the paperwork I nod
"There's a box by the end of the dressing area there are a similar pair in a lower heel it's not what I want but it's going to have to work to keep the seam unless there's another girl that can switch her outfits go check" I rush her away turning to David who is captivated by my work or perhaps by me im still unsure.
"Your good at what you do or how you just know things" He says with a proud smile
"Thank you, I'd say it's a gift but I acquired it later in life like 10" I say with a smile.
"Really?" he questions "you weren't a fashionably dressed toddler" he smirks and I can tell he's toying with me
"No sadly I wasn't or I would've been a baby model im damn sure of that" I say with dignity as the designer comes back with another and the both hand me the paper of the designs in each bag with the shoes and match the accessories and hair and I approve the switch keeping there hair the same
"Thank you boss" they both say and head back out to continue fixing there models
"Wow, that easy" David asks? I shrug
"It's only easy because im very meticulous with directions about things, and I know my sketches like the back of my head and i've seen each design on each model I work with" I say matter of fact and David is even more impressed with me then he was before and that makes me blush as his face just seems to exude pride towards me
"You are one of a kind Kurt, and truly you know what your doing and im impressed and if anyone doesn't like your designs there stupid" he states like a 12 year old boy who says 'ew that's stupid' and again im giggly
"Thank you David again, I have a small question?" I smile up at him he nods
"Yes Kurt?" he looks down to me with a smile of his own
"Would you prefer to sit out there and watch the show or stay back here with me and watch the show?" the boldness in my question must come from the champagne or the need to have him near me the feeling that I have someone who cares for me standing proud beside me.
"It'd be an honor to watch it with you here, unless I'm not allowed" I shake my head yes,
"Your allowed" I smile with a small giggle as a stage personnel comes up to me and asks me for the list of songs or the music for tonight I look to David and put a finger up giving him the gesture that I need a moment and hurry off to the box where the extra shoes, accessories and various things are I grab the few things needed for the personnel each with there own post-it of where how long and what variations the staff person smiles and thanks me greatly I nod heading my way back to David
"You really do have it going on you know that right?" he tells me again inflating my ego to the size of the moon and I can't help but blush, again. By that time another designer comes up to me and says that we have 15 mins til show time and I hear the pre music start so when it gets a bit more noisy that people are raising a brow in curiosity
"Alright, People 15 mins make everything done in 5 so you can do another 5 mins of making sure everything's ready for the next set for the last 3 before you have to line up for last 2" I snap as I grab the last Garment bag that is left on the rack and look to David before I wink and disappear to change into my own piece for when I have to step out and face the crowd of adoring or non adoring fans. Im back out of the changing area and in front of David again who now has his jaw dropped and is stealthy shifting himself I smirk and give myself a mental high five for turning the man on. I hear a Designer say 5 mins I check to see each garment for the next set has been unzipped I make a mental note to hire 10 instead of 7 and do 20 next set instead of 14 or make it a bigger production that this was just a start for me
I move over to the mirror to do a bit of make up to make sure im not so pale that im more ivory looking than translucent on stage I see David smiling behind me as he approaches and I turn to him with a smile
"Lip gloss or Lip balm" and I can see the wheels turning in his head and his eyes widen
"Balm" he says almost with a groan and i'm smiling sneakily
"good" I apply the strawberry flavor to my lips and then stand and move to the girls checking them each before the presentation starts and the beginning music starts I push the first model out I've alternated boy girl to give a different feel for this show each model has at least 3 minutes on the run way they stop at the front do the walk up the cat walk stop for the press and by that time the 2nd person is out there and there descending down the cat walk they pass each other with a glance then make there way stopping back at the beginning before coming backstage to redress in there second piece

watching him in his element is rather sexy, he's on it and he knows its. It's hard to take my eyes off of him and hard to control my own dick from reacting. He's got this way about him and I can't describe it if I had to give it a phrasing or a word it just be that he's simply Kurt Hummel and he can make anything rock or give anything life. As I stand here watching him being in awe im suddenly reminded that im not his boyfriend yet again when the models come back in there giving hugs quickly and moving to change again and i'm in awe of Kurt helping his troops as I hear the music change to go with the theme again it's like clock work as they line up during the small intermission as dancers take the stage to do a 3 minute dance to show the change in line up I guess I don't know Kurt said it went with the show and he was impressed when he hired them and wanted to show them off he lined up each model again according to how he wanted the pieces to be seen and watching him do it made me smile he has this way of just knowing and tonight's the night that all of his dreams for this industry are going to come true and its not that it's because it's him its because I know.
"Is he your boyfriend" a staffer asked me as he stood next to me keeping an eye on the same spectacle that is Kurt
"Not yet" I said, with a cheeky smirk to the guy
"You better make that fast he's a hottie, and talented" he mutters to me and I nod in agreement
"Yep I know i've known him for 9 years he's always been this clever and talented and Hot" I state exaggerating the word hot with a lick of my lips as the staffer moves from me knowing he's lost his chance I move understanding the mans words I know it's soon but I can't help it and also im mildly curious as to what that lip balm he's wearing taste like and he starts the first model off im at his side turning him and kissing him hard, not even a gentle eased in kiss I mean my lips are on his and he's kissing me back for the moment his arms move around my neck mine as his waist and I taste the strawberries and instantly want more with a groan I feel people pass us each moment as I lose air I pull back just in time to see the second to last person leave the line up as the models all come back to do there last walk out as a group as Kurt explained earlier in the morning during the mild small talk I lean down to Kurt's ear and whisper softly
"We will be doing that a lot more later" with a lick of my lips tasting the residual balm I move as he ushers the models back out and then follows them moving to the middle of the cat walk im watching from steps as the crowd is standing in applause and I can see him bowing and waving and taking his ovation for his hard work then he claps to the models and the show is over as the models walk back to the back and Kurt takes one more bow and leaves the stage as it dims he comes back thru the curtains and jumps into my arms kissing me as I wrap my arms around his back to keep him to me he whispers against my lips
"Thank you, oh god you are a good luck charm David god thank you" his lips meet mine once more before I could even say your welcome or ask why he's thanking me he pulls himself from me and walks over to place where he left some of his make up and reapplies the balm as apart of the design team comes up and asks if anything needs to be done
"Please make sure each garment is back in the bag and I mean EACH garment also make sure that the box is put back into my town car for when I leave oh and make sure I get each models agency address and or address for there paychecks" with a nod she's off to do what she's told and im stunned watching him still relaxed but working like a boss and im floored I move quickly to his side and whisper
"So we leaving yet?" he turns with a smile
"After the party!" he winks
and with that wink I know tonight's the night of many things to come.
