Blaine's Grandmother pulled a few strings and managed to get him into the same public school as Kurt.
As it turns out Cooper goes to the same school, Kurt just didn't know it was Blaine's brother, Cooper's friends were always picking on him so it was understandable as to why he didn't know. He still doesn't know, Blaine just assumes he did.
Blaine was thrilled, his parents not so much, but they didn't dare go against his Grandmother's wishes, and they didn't know about Kurt yet much to Blaine's relief when he realised Cooper hasn't said anything. Besides he didn't live with his parents anymore.
"Blaine!" Kurt squealed when Blaine turned up to school on monday books in hand, a red shirt, black jacket, blue bow tie and dark blue jeans with hair gelled back much to Kurt's dismay, but his Grandmother insisted it looked adorable. Kurt found that Blaine wore glasses.
Kurt pretty much ran to him, when he entered the school gates into the playground. Blaine dropped his books and let his arms wrap themselves around Kurt in a hug leaving a smirk look on Mercedes face as she welcomed Blaine to the new school. He badly wanted to kiss Kurt again but his Grandmother warned that other people wouldn't understand.
"You look smart!" Kurt nodded in approval.
Blaine blushed.
"You look pretty," He admitted as he observed Kurt's amazing outfit.
"Hi Mercedes," Blaine answered as Kurt pouted when he let finally let go after breathing in Kurt's scent.
"No hi for me?" Kurt pouted.
"I never left you," Blaine whispered. Kurt giggled whilst Mercedes raised an eyebrow.
"Did I miss something and how is it that you're here, you told me you didn't go to school?"
"My Grandmother took me shopping to buy new clothes, and we ran into Kurt, and I kissed Kurt, and my Grandmother..."
"WOAH WOAH WOAH...Hold it Blainers! You KISSED KURT?" Mercedes almost screamed, earning a few disapproving looks from other students including Cooper and his friends. Sebastian was one of them Blaine had noticed.
"Mercedes shh," Kurt bit his bottom lip and steered them away from the evil eyes of their peers.
"Yeah.." Blaine stuttered staring at Kurt as he said it and smiled softly.
"So what is kissing like?" Mercedes grinned.
"It was nice," Kurt added shyly.
"I thought it was nice too, Kurt's lips were soft..." Blaine agreed.
"Okay, this is becoming too much to watch," Mercedes groaned as she saw them glance at each other's lips, both looking away embarressed.
"Hey Hummel, got a friend for us to play with huh?" A boy with not so kind eyes came up to them as he smiled wickedly at Blaine.
"Don't touch him," Kurt said protectively standing in front of Blaine.
"Oh don't worry, we aren't fags like you," One of Cooper's friends said also joining the boy. Blaine frowned.
"Don't call him that! It's a rude word," He shouted.
"What...aren't you one as well?"
"Get away from them!" Cooper's voice echoed across the playground.
"Aww come on Coop, if you want to hang with us, you have to pick on the losers,"
Cooper was silenced. Blaine stared at his brother hoping for him to stick up for them.
"Get lost, now" Cooper said putting a rougher tone to his voice to Kurt and Blaine.
"He's your brother!" Mercedes fumed, remembering hearing his last name in roll call. Kurt's eyes went wide as he looked at Blaine. Blaine was too busy eyeing Cooper for help.
The bullies were staring at Cooper crossing their arms waiting for his answer to this absurd announcement.
"I don't have a brother," Cooper answered. Kurt could feel Blaine tense next to him.
"HOW DARE..." Mercedes started.
"No he's right," Blaine muttered.
Cooper felt so bad, he wanted the ground to swallow him up when he saw the devastated look on Blaine's face. He hadn't meant to say that, but the bullies were his friends, and without them he had no one but his brother,
and his brother was a nice person, he wasn't, he didn't deserve to be his brother.
"Come on Kurt," Blaine pulled Kurt with him and Mercedes to the other side of the playground.
"I...I just need to be alone for a moment," Blaine said walking away from Kurt and Mercedes to the bathroom when they left the group of laughing kids mocking Blaine's ridiculous clothes.
"Blaine..." Kurt called.
"Let him go Kurt," Mercedes hushed grabbing his arm gently.
Cooper excused himself from his friends after they returned to their activities.
He needed to talk to Blaine.
Kurt saw him go after Blaine and immediately lashed out at him. Kurt started punching Cooper chest.
Coopers friends straight away came to help.
"KURT!" Mercedes warned.
Blaine rushed back out when he heard Kurt's voice being called more than once. He saw his brother on the ground and gasped.
"YOU HURT HIM, DON'T GO NEAR HIM!" Kurt screamed as Mercedes tried to pull him of…
Cooper was in shock at the fury in Kurt's face.
"No...Kurt, please...," Blaine ran to him as the other boys kicked at Kurt to get of Cooper. Kurt was crying, and Cooper screamed for him to stop.
Blaine managed to help Mercedes get Kurt away from the guys.
"You'll pay for this Hummel! It's a shame Blaine that you had to hang out with him," Blaine heard Sebastian mention as he took Cooper away from them.
Blaine pulled Kurt closer to him.
"Kurt...you...why would you do such a thing, are you crazy, they could have hurt you badly!"
"You are also lucky there were no teachers around," Mercedes pointed out.
"He was going to go after you, he hurt you Blaine, I know because you were sad because of him, and I couldn't let him make you sad again,"
Blaine smiled warmly at Kurt.
"Shh its okay, I'm okay, I have you, I don't need him," Blaine muttered as Kurt cried against his chest.
Mercedes was watching the other boys daring them to come near her who were staring at Kurt ready to be murdered.
"Is he really your brother?" Kurt questioned staring at Blaine's hazel eyes.
Blaine sighed.
"I thought he was,"
"I'm sorry," Kurt added quietly. Blaine stroked his back.
"It's okay Kurt,"
"If he does anything I'll..." Mercedes began.
"You won't do nothing, Cedes, he's still my brother, I just won't let him know that,"
"He hurt you," Kurt protested.
"I don't want you to do that again okay Kurt? I can't have you hurt," Blaine gently touched a bruise on Kurt's arm where the boys kicked at, rubbing his thumb over it gently.
"I don't like them," Mercedes said crossly with her hands on her hips.
Kurt nodded.
"Me neither,"
"Let's see if we can find our own place to sit," Blaine suggested. They nodded, but before they could walk around the bell rang for class.
"We have English, come on," Kurt pulled both of them hurriedly into the school after Mercedes gave Blaine his books back that he dropped earlier.
Blaine refused to look at Cooper all day in school, he had every right to in his opinion, so he stayed with Kurt pretty much to the hip which Mercedes was not shy on commenting about, she teased them a lot throughout the day except for when Sam came along to separate her from them at lunchtime.
The boys hadn't given them any trouble so far but they thought that was just because they had teachers in the classrooms, and when the bell rang for classes Kurt and Blaine were always the first one to rush out.
She looked at them sadly, but Kurt told her to go.
"Hey look, I saw what those guys did, and if they do something again tell me, I'll stop them," Sam added as he took Mercedes with him waving goodbyes to the boys. Blaine just nodded with a small smile and grabbed Kurt's hands.
"Come with me," He whispered. Kurt obeyed as he was pulled to the bottom oval which was at the end of the school playground.
Blaine had seen it when he arrived, and he glanced over his shoulders to make sure no one was running after them. He found the bush he was looking for, the oval was where most kids went to play sport, and since they were too busy kicking the ball around they didn't notice Blaine dragging Kurt into the trees, they hid behind plants, and no one could see them. Kurt wasn't happy though, and Blaine couldn't understand why.
"Hey...we're alone now, why are you upset?" Blaine asked.
"Kurt refused to sit down but Blaine pulled him down so he wouldn't be seen.
"The ground is dirty!" Kurt scoffed.
"Don't worry, it's just me, I don't care,"
"But...My pants," Kurt made a disgusted face.
"Here," Blaine took of his jacket and laid it down on the grass offering Kurt a seat.
"But...you'll be cold,"
"I don't want them to see you Kurt,"
Kurt looked hurt.
"You know what I mean, I mean, I just don't want them to do anything bad to you," Blaine corrected.
Kurt nodded and reluctantly sat down. He opened up his arms.
"Come here Blaine,"
Blaine looked at him confused.
"I want to keep you warm," Kurt raised an eyebrow.
Blaine smiled and crawled into Kurt's arms sighing into the boys neck.
"I've missed you so much," Kurt whispered into the back of Blaine's head.
"You saw me two days ago," Blaine chuckled.
"You know what I mean,"
Kurt leaned back against a tree branch much to Blaine's surprise and let Blaine lean on his stomach, rubbing his arms to keep him warm.
"You are beautiful," Kurt announced quietly for only Blaine too hear and frowned when he couldn't play with Blaine's curls like he did in Day Care.
Blaine then looked up to Kurt with a shock expression on his face.
"Has no one said you are beautiful before?" Kurt giggled.
Blaine shook his head with a grin.
"Only Carole…she um, she said that you could see me as Belle from Beauty and the Beast," Blaine told remembering his conversation with Carole.
Kurt bent down and kissed his cheek.
"Well you are, I'm the Beast,"
"No..., you are Belle, I already told Ms Carole that," Blaine smiled shyly and leaned into peck Kurt on the lips behind the bushes.
Kurt smiled against his mouth on his.
"My daddy says we shouldn't kiss," Kurt said quietly.
"My Grandmother said the same thing," Blaine frowned.
"But ...I like kissing you," Kurt looked sad.
"Me too," Blaine agreed.
"They think only adults are allowed to kiss," Kurt repeated his father's words.
"I don't think that's fair, I mean, it's not like it's a bad word or something," Blaine thought it was stupid. They kissed in fairytales didn't they?
"Well, it can be a secret kiss,"
"A Secret kiss?" Blaine wondered.
"Yeah...like when no one see's us, it can just be for just...you and me to know about,"
Blaine looked enthusiastic about that.
"Yeah! A secret kiss so we don't get in trouble, and so we can do it more," Blaine clapped his hands quietly.
Kurt blushed.
"Blaine?"
"Yeah?"
"Am...am I a..am...I a good kisser?" Kurt looked down cheeks flaming red hot.
Blaine appeared extremely confused and pulled Kurt's hands into his.
"You are very good Kurt,"
"Really?"
"Really...really," Blaine beamed.
"Hey let's eat before the bell rings," Kurt pulled out his lunch box.
Blaine frowned again.
"I don't have lunch,"
"What?" Kurt sounded angry.
"Sebastian took my lunch,"
"Here, you can share mine," Kurt refused to let Blaine go hungry, unwrapping his sandwich and two biscuits giving Blaine half, but Blaine argued.
"No...it's yours,"
"I want you to have it," Kurt insisted.
Blaine shook his head.
"Blaine... please, for me?" Kurt made a puppy face that Blaine couldn't ignore and groaned.
Kurt gave him the food satisfied and they watched each other as they ate.
Kurt could tell Blaine was hungry because he ate really fast.
"Finny's mum is going to make muffins when we go home, I'll bring you some tomorrow," Kurt smiled.
Blaine felt guilty for taking Kurt's food.
"I can't Kurt,"
"Yes you can! I want you to,"
"But,"
"Blaine...you are hungry, it's okay,"
After they finished their lunch the bell rang, Blaine made Kurt wait till the kids ran inside before helping him of the ground.
Kurt brushed the grass of Blaine's jacket and gave it back feeling terrible for it again.
"I'm sorry,"
"Don't be, I wanted you to have it," Blaine smiled widely repeating Kurt's words as they ran back hand in hand to the building out of the bushes again.
They stopped when Sebastian was standing outside waiting for them.
Kurt tugged at Blaine's sleeve nervously. Blaine held Kurt's arm securely.
"Where were you two hiding?" Sebastian blocked the doorway.
"None of your business get out of their way," Sam added appearing with Mercedes nearby.
"Says who?"
"Says the guy in charge of your position on the soccer team," Sam threatened. They didn't play football till High school, but being on the soccer team was still important and Sam was older than all of them, so he knew how to get to the bullies as he held Mercedes's hand.
Sebastian glared at him but moved. Blaine mouthed a thank you to Sam, and pulled Kurt along with him to the next class.
Lima Public was alright so long as he had Kurt with him.
