Author's note: I made this chapter in the middle of the night, so my apologies if there are any mistakes. Thank you to everyone who left some reviews in this story. Enjoy this new chapter!
Blaine, Rachel and the rest of New Directions has finally arrived in Los Angeles. The Nationals is in 3 days and they have been so pumped since the day they won Regionals. Rehearsals has been so heavy, Blaine and Rachel even invited some of the New Directions alumni to give some tips and advice for the current New Directions, they also helped the 2 coach for the extra rehearsals. Cooper called Blaine back to confirm whether they're going to stay at his house, which is Blaine gladly took the offer. Now here they are at the LAX airport arrival area waiting for Cooper to pick them up.
"Welcome back to L.A. my little brother!" Cooper shouted as he got off of his car and rushed up to Blaine to give him a hug.
"Hey Coop!" Blaine hugged back. "Cooper, you must remember Rachel, right?" Blaine asked as they pulled away and took Rachel's hand to usher her forward to introduce her Cooper. "Of course." Cooper replied and he stretched out his hand to Rachel and she gladly shook his hand. "Thank you for offering us to stay at your house." Rachel said as she let go of Cooper's hand. "No problem. Besides, I wanna hear some gossips about Blaine, if you could give me some." Cooper laughed and Blaine just rolled his eyes. "Can we go now Coop? We're all tired now and we need to get some rest. Let us just catch up later" Blaine said. "I think that's a good idea." Cooper nodded, "Let's go. Obviously you're too many so I borrowed a van from my friend and he's actually driving it." he looked around and he pointed his friend's van where it was parked.
"Let's go?" Blaine asked Rachel, she smiled and nod.
Cooper was driving the car for Blaine and Rachel while the others rode at the van. The ride going to Cooper's house was fun for Blaine and Rachel as Cooper keeps on cracking some jokes, teasing Blaine that he might end up in a romantic relationship with Rachel as he knows that they had a brief history.
"I'm just saying Blaine, you two practically spending a lot of time of each other. Feelings can develop." Cooper winked at Rachel and she politely smiled. "Let us listen to some music." Blaine said instead of answering what Cooper said, turns on the radio in the car.
As they arrived in Cooper's house, everyone are busy unloading their bags from the two cars.
"Welcome to my house!" Cooper exclaimed as he opened his front door. His house was huge enough, Cooper was planning to get married soon with his girlfriend and he figured if he wants to start to build his own family he needs to buy a house. He luckily ended up in a house where it was not so expensive when he bought it but it was big.
"Everyone you can now settle to your rooms. Girls, there's a room there on the right and boys you stay at the room at the end of the hallway." Cooper pointed their rooms, "and Rachel? Since you're the coach you can stay at the special guest room upstairs."
"I think it's too much. I can sleep with the girls or I can even sleep in the living room." Rachel insisted, but Cooper shook his head, "that's absurd. Please, just accept it." he grinned and Rachel smiled. "Okay."
"Okay." Cooper repeated and he said, "Now get some rest. When you reach the top of the stair turn right and then walk a few steps there's a door on the left, that's your room."
"Thank you Cooper." Rachel said. "My pleasure." Cooper said and he took one of her hand and he kissed it and then Rachel blushed as she pass by him going upstairs.
"So where's my room?" Blaine asked as he puts down the last bag from the car. "as for you Blaine, you're staying with me." Cooper replied.
"No way! I'd rather sleep in the living room than to sleep in your bedroom!"
"If I were you, I'd gladly took the offer. Oh well, if you insist, I hope you'll get comfortable in the couch." Cooper laughed as he walks away leaving Blaine with a confused look.
"I should've stayed in Cooper's bedroom" Blaine softly muttered as he tries to settle down in the couch in Cooper's living room. The couch was really small for Blaine and he wish that Cooper could've had think to buy a new couch.
"Blaine!" Rachel sort of shouted and Blaine almost jumped off the couch. "Oh, I'm sorry to scare you." she apologizes. "No worries. I was just putting up the pillows here." he smiled. "I'm sorry if sometimes Cooper's self-confidence is too much high." "It's fine." Rachel said and they fell into silence.
"So, why are you sleeping here anyway?" Rachel asked a minute later, "Well I was going to stay in Cooper's bedroom but I don't want to share a bed with him. That's why I ended up here." he replied. "We can share the bed in the guest room! I mean if you don't mind." she suggests, "I don't think Cooper would-" before Blaine could finish his sentence he looked at Rachel's begging eyes and he considers for a moment. "Well, it's not like we're doing anything wrong. I think we can share the bed." he smiled and she gave him a hug, "Yay! The bed was big for me anyway and I need someone to cuddle to." Rachel said. "Now I'm sleepy. Let's go to bed?" Blaine yawned and Rachel nodded. He took her hand and he leads her the way on to the guest room.
"Goodnight Blaine." Rachel said as she kiss Blaine's cheek, both of them now laying on the bed.
"Goodnight too Rachel." Blaine said and he turns off the lamp on the table near him. Now the two of them drifted into a peaceful sleep.
