Chap 6:
Ew. It's morning. At least there's no school. I slowly walked down the stairs in my boxers and t-shirt, sleepy eyed, ready for some tea.
"Kurt, I think you should get ready."
"What? Dad it's Saturday. Did you forget to cross out a day on the calendar again?"
"Nnnnope!"
"Then what's going on?"
"Look out the window."
I peered outside to see Blaine, leaning against his car.
"Oh. My. GOD. DAD. WHEN DID HE GET HERE?"
"8am. He assumed this would happen, and so he stayed outside. I brought him some eggs but he declined."
"GOD DAMN IT."
I ran upstairs.
"Eggs are dairy, dad!" I shouted from my room.
"Oh. Well." Burt shouted, "Atleast I didn't poison him!"
I let out an angsty sigh. This was not supposed to happen, it takes me hours to get ready, what do I do?
I talked to himself. "I have been training my whole life for this moment. Time for action."
And I got ready in five minutes flat.

Soon enough, I came downstairs and went in a huff. I hate surprises. And then...
I open the door, and I found a rose. He bought me a rose.
I look up to see him smiling, and soon enough, I was too.

I skipped toward him.
"Good morning Blaine!"
"Good morning, love."
"To what do I owe this honour?" I smelled my rose.
"Oh nothing, just thought I'd take you out, if you aren't too busy."
"Busy? I'd love to go... Uh, where are we going?"
Blaine chuckled. "See, that's my only condition, it's a secret."
"Oh come on! Do you realize how quickly I had to get ready?"
"And you look gorgeous darling." He stroked my face, my makeup-less face. He called me gorgeous. I smiled.
He walked around the car and opened the door for me.
I walked around, and curtsied, mocking his gentleman manners, but I really do love them.
We got in and started driving towards the forest.
"Um. Blaine?"
"Yes?"
"You aren't kidnapping me, right?"
He laughed. "I wish."
And he pulled on to this small dirt path. The car barely fit, but he was a great driver.
We got to a pond, and I was in awe.
There were swans, everywhere. White swans, black swans, speckled swans. And a canoe.
"This is..."
"Do you like it?"
"I adore it, but I couldn't help but notice the boat."
"That is indeed a boat."
I approached it cautiously as if it were a wild beast.
"I don't think I could steer that thing."
"I can."
And he whipped off his jacket, and his t-shirt, to reveal a white wife beater.
"Alright. You brought me here just for that reason, didn't you?"
"Nope!" Blaine smiled. "Just a perk! Your turn!"
I blushed. "Um. I don't have an undershirt."
Blaine laughed. "I meant your jacket, silly."
"Heheh, oh."
I took off my jacket and put it in the car. I was bound to get cold in a t-shirt. Maybe another plan of his. Whatever, I was feeling adventurous today.
We both got into the boat and Blaine paddled slowly, so he wouldn't hit the birds. He tossed me a bag full of cheerios to feed them before we got too far away. After a half hour or so, all I could see was water.
"This is a little freaky. I don't like not being able to see land."
"I can go back if you want!"
"No, it's freaky, but, in a good way. I trust you."
We smiled and stared at each other for a little while. Soon enough, the wind picked up, and it was getting even colder.
"Looks like that snowfall the other day wasn't a one time thing." Sure enough, those damn little flakes started falling again. The beginning of winter.
"Chhaaaaaarrrgggeee!" I yelled, pointing to land.
Blaine went super macho and paddled as if he was racing. His muscles were everywhere. I attempted to paddle with my hands, I swear I thought it would work but it only made Blaine laugh harder and harder, to the point where he couldn't row.
We finally got back and jumped into the heated car.
"That was freezing!"
"That was invigorating."
I realized he still didn't have his shirt on.
"So, do you uh, row a lot?"
"At least once a week, but only recently."
"So that's where those came from."
"What?"
I lightly touched his arm.
"Oh, haha. Yep! I suppose these just come with the hobby. You like?"
I blushed. I suppose that was answer enough, because he pulled me in towards him.
"Oh my god you're so warm!" I clung onto him for life, seriously. And he sure didn't mind.
We sat like that for a while, I was so comfortable. But to be honest the heat had gone and now we were both moderately cold.
He started to drive again, and this time I didn't ask where. As long as I was with him, I knew I was safe.
