Sorry to say this is pretty much a filler chapter, that's why it's so short, but I'll post chapter 8 MAYBE tomorrow - as a gift from me to you for Darren's b-day! XD Enjoy!
Calling for help
"Helloooo?"
"I have to tell you something. But you have to promise not to tell anyone."
"And hello to you, Kurt. How's New York?"
"No time for that. Do you promise?"
Penny sighed.
"Okay, I promise. What's wrong?"
"Blaine just kissed me."
He heard a gasp. Then silence.
"Penny? Are you there?"
"Come again. I think I had an elephant in my ears that compromised my hearing."
"I said that Blaine Anderson, my boss who's supposed to be straight, just kissed me."
"Oh, boy. Aaaaaaamyyyyyyy, Aaaaaaamyyyyyy hurryyyyyyy!"
Kurt had to remove the cell phone from his ear because the girl was yelling too much. He still managed to hear footsteps coming closer and the two girls started talking to each other.
"Okay, Kurt, you're on speakerphone. Now repeat slowly."
"I don't wanna repeat anymore. And please, girls, don't put posters anywhere. This is confidential, okay?"
"Okay." They both said in unison.
He told the girls what happened, leaving the hottest details out, because they were having a stroke just hearing about the clean version of the story.
"What are you going to do now?"
"What can I do? I don't think there's a book that says how to react when your straight boss decides to kiss you and then walk away."
"Oh, you could totally write that now."
"Thanks, Penny, really great advice."
"I think you have to wait until tomorrow. Maybe he freaked out a little bit because he didn't know he was gay in the first place? Or maybe he was drunk or…I don't know there could be tons of other explanation."
"Yeah. I think you're right Amy."
He sighed and put his finger to his temple, moving it in circles, trying to stop the headache that was torturing him.
"Okay, girls. I think I'll try to sleep now."
"Yeah, right. Sleep. More like release the sexual frustration in some way"
"Oh my God, Penny, seriously?"
He heard both of the girls laugh.
"Well, I guess I should leave you too laughing at my misery, while I'm going to bed. Goodnight, ladies."
"G'night, Kurt."
He hung up and threw himself on the bed. Next step: sleep. Sure, why not?
Blaine got up at 6AM, even though he didn't close his eyes for more than ten minutes that night. He really screw it up, this time – how was he supposed to explain what happened to Alex? She would definitely freak out. Not after all this time and after all their efforts.
"Good morning."
"Hi."
"Is everything all right?"
Fuck. She could read him like an open book.
"Yes. Just my insomnia, I think."
Alex yawned and stretched her body. She got up and went straight to the bathroom. Blaine fell asleep as soon as the water of the shower started running, basically lulled to sleep.
Knock, knock, knock.
"Kurt, wake uuuuup!"
Kurt rolled in his bed and rubbed his eyes, he looked at the clock on the nightstand – too early, definitely too early. He got up and opened the door.
"What?"
"And good morning to you!"
"Sorry, I didn't have much sleep, actually."
Blaine looked at him and Kurt blushed, remembering the night before.
"Well, get dressed, I have something I need your help with."
"Uh, okay. I'll see you in ten?"
"Oh, don't make me leave. Alex is out buying I don't know what and I don't wanna be alone."
Kurt sighed.
"Okay. Come in."
Blaine took a seat on the bed, while Kurt took his outfit for the day from his bag, with Blaine watching him and following each one of his movements.
"I'll get dressed then."
"Ok."
Kurt went to the bathroom and closed the door behind him. Then he slither with the back against the door and sat on the floor. He took the cell-phone out of his pocket and called the girls. Amy answered.
"Kurt?"
"Okay, I have a problem."
"What's that?"
"Why is he acting like nothing happened?"
"Blaine?"
"Yes. He's in my room, he's sitting on my bed and is waiting for me to go do something."
"Oh, really?"
"Oh, come on! You know what I mean."
"Wait, where are you?"
"In the bathroom! I'm supposed to get dressed!"
"You know what, Kurt? Just follow his lead."
"What?"
"Just pretend nothing happened. Try to act normal, maybe he'll come around."
"Mh. That sounds fine, actually. But…"
"No buts."
"I'm not used to this. I generally kiss people I like and I don't like to be treated like this."
"You have a super duper crush on this guy!"
"What? No! Absolutely not. I mean he's attractive in a very obvious way but, crush? No! No! No!"
"You know you said no too many times for it to be true."
"I've got to get dressed, he'll start to suspect something."
"You like him, Kurt. I'm not saying you shouldn't, but watch out. You don't even know the guy."
"I know but I don't like him. He's my boss, I cannot like him. Isn't it forbidden or something?"
"Just…watch out."
"Hey, Amy. Thanks."
"You're welcome."
He hung up and started dressing up. Boy this trip to New York has been quite a disaster.
