The next few days, Blaine felt like he had never been happier and it definitely showed. He was at Warbler practice one afternoon when Wes, one of the council members, banged his gavel and started talking about their next competition. When he was finished, Blaine stood and asked to sing a song. He had been feeling so amazing since he opened up to Cooper. Everyone agreed, of course. Together, they were amazing and sounded perfect. But they all looked up at Blaine as their lead man. The boys loved watching him perform. He danced around as he sang No Doubt's Hella Good. Wes smiled as Blaine sang. He had been so down the past few weeks. But something had happened in the previous few days. Blaine was smiling all the time and just happy. Wes loved seeing his friend this way. But he couldn't help but wonder what it was that made Blaine so happy. He wondered if he had found someone. Afterall, Wes was the only one Blaine had come out to. Most of the Warblers had suspicions about Blaine be gay. But they never questioned it. He would tell them when he was ready. And honestly, either way, it didn't matter to them. The entire group clapped and told Blaine how amazing his performance was before practice ended. As everyone was heading out, Wes walked up to Blaine.
"Hey Blaine. What're you doing today?"
Blaine shook his head. "Not much. Cooper is picking me up but I don't think we're doing anything. Why?"
"We haven't hung out in a while. You want to hang out?"
"Yeah!" Blaine smiled. "You can come over and we can have one of our Call of Duty marathons."
"Oh, you're so going down, Anderson!" Wes challenged.
"We'll see," Blaine said, reaching up and rubbing his neck.
Wes couldn't help but look where Blaine's hand was. There was a small, dark purple bruise there. It was definitely a hickey. "Ooohh…Who gave you that?"
"G-gave me what?" Blaine asked, blushing as he tried to hide it.
"That hickey," Wes said, not letting it go.
"Oh..Umm, no one..You don't know him.." Blaine said quickly.
"Someone special?"
"Not really. It's nothing, like, official or anything." Blaine said, looking down. "You ready to go..?"
Wes nodded and they headed out to where Cooper was waiting. "Hey Blaine. Nice to see you again, Wes. You coming over?"
"You too, Coop. Yeah, we were gonna hang out if that's alright." Wes smiled.
"Not a problem." Cooper said as they all got in the car. He turned the radio to some random station and Blaine started singing.
"Someone to comfort me and hold me
Through the long lonely nights
'Till the dawn
Why don't you take me away
Dream lover come rescue me
Take me up take me down
Take me anywhere you want to baby now
I need you so desperately.."
He sang that last line as he looked over at Cooper. His brother smiled. "I can't believe you remember that song. You were like one when it came out." He said, chuckling lightly.
"I love this song. You used to let me listen to her and a few other people when mom and dad were out." Blaine said, smiling.
"I remember," Cooper said softly as Blaine started singing again. Wes looked back and forth between the two boys in the front seat. Why had Blaine looked at Cooper like that? They were close but that was a little weird. And that hickey..? Wes shook his head. That was insane. There was no way those things were connected. He pushed the thought aside and listened to Blaine and Cooper sing as they drove. Once they were at the house, Blaine and Wes headed straight to the living room and placed the game into Blaine's PlayStation three and turned on the big screen television.
A little while later, Cooper ordered pizza for them and they all ate before getting back to their game. The older boy sat back on the couch as he watched his brother and Wes. He couldn't help but smile at how cute it was when Blaine got really into it and yelled at the screen. Blaine was beating Wes and Wes pushed Blaine playfully, causing him to drop his console.
"Hey!" Blaine said, picking it back up and knocking Wes over. They abandoned their game and started wrestling in the middle of the living room. Cooper giggled as he watched them. He went to move the table in front of the couch so they wouldn't break it. But once it was out of the way, Blaine and Wes each grabbed one of Cooper's legs and pulled so he fell down with them. The older boy laughed as he turned around, pushing Wes lightly as Blaine tried to attack Cooper. Cooper stood up before Blaine could get to him and crouched down, throwing a giggling Blaine over his shoulders and dropping him on the couch like he used to when Blaine was a little kid. Wes got up and jumped onto Cooper's back and he did the same with Wes, dropping him on the opposite couch. They all wrestled a bit longer, having a great time before it got late and they took Wes home.
A/N: This one wasn't as long as the others. But I just wanted something cute and add a little interaction from someone outside of the family. And big thanks to ZombieRachelLOVESZombieQuinn for all the encouragement and help :D I hope you all enjoyed!
