So In the space of me posting the first chapter and going to bed I have had nearly 300 views, 21 follows, 8 favorites and 5 reviews. THAT IS SO AWESOME!
The early morning light seeped through the window and over the double bed, creeping its way slowly to wake up the man curled in content slumber. Kurt rolled over a few times and groaned as his arms stretched outwards.
't's no use, I suppose I'll have to get up…'he sighed in thought as he rose up gently from his bed and brushed his bangs upwards out of his face, standing as he yawned he made his way out into the living area.
"Rach? Rachel?" he poked his head around as his glass blue eyes searched the room for his roommate. He sighed at the silence; normally Rachel would be up about the same time making her breakfast before heading to NYADA. "Looks like it's just me…" he quietly observed as he took some eggs out of the fridge along with some bread stored on the counter.
Kurt rolled his eyes and scoffed as his phone once again started to vibrate on the counter in an endless buzzing tone reflecting Blaine's name yet again on the ID. He stopped a moment in thought of whether he should answer it and tell him where to shove his apologies, it had been two months and the guy really didn't get the hint. Of course he still loved Blaine more than anything, the dapper school boy was his first kiss that was meaningful and the boy he lost his virginity to.
Thinking back the boy at Dalton compared to the boy ringing him now were completely different, he used to be the one that would be strong and think logically but over the past few months Blaine had deteriorated into being clingy and a little too emotional, not that he had minded; after being branded 'girly' the majority of the time he liked being the rock.
"Some rock I turned out to be…" Kurt sighed as he glanced back once again at the phone only this time his eyes nearly popped out of his skull and his mouth was agape in shock, he looked at the clock on the wall to double check, rubbing his eyes. "I'm gonna be late for work!"
He hurried to put the food away and ran to his make shift room; he grimaced looking at his bottles of lotion on the vanity. He wouldn't have time to do his skin routine and as much as he was against going without it he would have to if he wanted to get to work on time.
"DAMN IT!" he screeched as he did up his black slacks and a plain white shirt. He grabbed his newest blazer which was green and brown hatched tweed, normally he thought tweed was awful but it was coming back into fashion with a vengeance and if put together right it did have a great look about it.
He grabbed the tie off the vanity and sighed looking in the full length mirror. He'd grabbed a bow tie… a deep green.
He tied it up and shook off the sudden downer. Running product through his hair he moved around in hurried movements, hopping around as one hand attempted to put on his shoes and the other straining to reach his bag with his laptop in. Groaning in frustration he reached the door and ran back again, he was not leaving without his hippo broach!
The door slid open and shut incredibly fast as he stormed down the stairs thinking that if he missed a few he could get to the train station quicker. 'Laptop, phone, schedule…'
He was knocked back with a bang as he bumped into something in his way, he rubbed his head a little, "Watch it Gay face, I don't have a death wish you know." If looks could kill he would have murdered Sebastian a million times over, he just had to get in the way…
"Because God forbid you be late for getting your rocks off with some guy equally as cheap as you Craig's List." He seethed, he had not been in the mood and ever since this idiot moved in he spent his nights turning up the tv or holding a pillow over his ears to block out his neighbours sexual escapades. Even Rachel had scoffed at the behaviour, spotting several men leave on different days but at least she could go hang out with Brody to get away. "I like your aftershave by the way, 'Jealousy by You'?"
Sebastian smirked as Kurt stood up and cocked his nose at the smirking man and walked away then started to run as he got outside.
'Me, jealous? Please…"
When he finally reached the office he was about 13 minutes late and he looked around to see if Isabelle was anywhere in sight, sometimes the fashionista started a bit late so hopefully today was one of those days and he wouldn't be caught.
He straightened up and neatened his blazer, 'be casual…you weren't late…' he let out a sharp breath and strode to his desk and set up his laptop and his charger into the wall.
"Bit of a hectic morning?" Looking up he smiled at the woman in front of him and smiled with a bit of a laugh. Kelsey was about his age and was a previous intern, after a year they took her on full time and Kurt could see exactly why; she had style to die for and a collective ideas at the mention of a single word.
"You could say so Kels, how'd you know?" He wasn't even going to pretend he hadn't been late to her, she knew better. "Nice scarf by the way." He studied the burgundy fabric which wasn't used the way a normal scarf would, it was tied in her hair with a simple not at the side which made her brunette waves balance out with her hair. She leaned on the door frame, the curves on her body reflected with the simple grey pencil skirt and burgundy knitted boob tube.
"Because you look paler than usual and someone clearly hasn't had his moisturiser this morning. I got you some coffee, I had to do a run and I knew you wouldn't say no." She took a take-out cup from the cardboard tray and placed it in front of him. "I have moisturiser at my desk, you might wanna be snappy though; Isabelle rang this morning and that Alex Simpson is due to be in this morning, I managed to cover for you but she wants you to keep him entertained because she's running late."
Kelsey leaned over and winked with a cheeky grin, Kurt loved this girl from day one they had clicked and she knew him off by heart and vice versa. Alex on the other hand was modelling some designer wear for the special they were running that month in Vogue, there was no denying the blonde was hot.
"Are we still meeting for lunch later?" Kelsey looked back taking her drink and smiled wickedly, taking some books while she was at it. "And miss out on the gossip? Boy you be trippin'." She said the last part slowly with a bit of sass making Kurt smile and laugh, covering his mouth at her antics.
Lunchtime finally rolled around and both Kurt and Kelsey popped down the road to this quaint little diner that had delicious coffee and a great selection of food. Kurt sat with a vegetarian lasagne and Kelsey sat with a Panini, the two sighing in relief as they sat down.
"So…" Kelsey wiped her chin with a napkin and took a quick sip of her tea, "How was entertaining Aleeeex?" Kurt put down his fork and pursed his lips in a pout as he tilted his head trying not to laugh, he was waiting for her to pipe up and it was only a matter of time.
"It was fine," he rolled his eyes, "We just went over outfits for the shoot and discussed it quite a bit, it's a shame not many models have control of what they have to model, he had great ideas and luckily Isabelle loved them." Kurt started to dig into his food once more as Kelsey leaned her chin on her hand and clicked her tongue and rolled her eyes.
"You know that's not what I meant! A little birdie told me he gave you his numbeeeer!" She sing-songed as she sat back up with a grin leaving Kurt looking slightly horrified for a moment.
"You didn't hear that from anyone."
"Ok, So I may have gone rummaging in the top drawer of your desk but I needed paper clips I swear!" He had to laugh at her because she was now laughing loudly, she knew she was a lousy liar when it came to Kurt raising an eyebrow and giving her a glare. "Oh come on Kurt he's cute you should…"
She was stopped by the interruption of Kurt's phone buzzing once more on the table; she looked over and sighed when Kurt looked put down by the call.
"Why don't you just answer it? Or at least block his number Kurt you were so happy when we first met and every time he phones you just…..sink." She cocked her head to get him to look at her and when he made eye contact he sat up and wiped his chin with a napkin.
"I just… part of me still loves him, there wasn't anything not to love but I don't know if I could ever forgive him. Out of the pair of us he always got attention and I knew he was desirable by other men..."he sucked in some air, "I don't think I'll ever feel good enough for him."
"Stop it. Kurt." Kelsey made him look at her when she gripped his hand in a friendly squeeze. "You're hot honey, bloody hell you had an offer from a model and don't pretend you haven't seen how some guys look at you. Even I wanted to do you the second you walked into Vogue!"
Kurt laughed along with her, he remembered the flirting over the first couple of weeks and he had to admit when Kelsey wanted a man she was ruthless. Even when she was told he was gay she still made sure the offer was open but with so many things in common it was quickly swept away, they couldn't help but be such good friends.
"You're only as good as you feel sweetness so you need someone to make you feel good. Go out with Alex, it couldn't hurt." She looked down at the phone buzzing for the hundredth time and gave Kurt a sly look, her lips curling into a huge smirk. Out of nowhere they both made a grab for the phone and Kurt cursed and slightly had a fit in his seat when Kelsey beat him to it.
"No, no, no, no, Kels!" he squealed a little as she slid the bar across and answered the phone, clearing her throat before speaking into the receiver.
"Hola! Sorry, me no speak English bye bye now!" She put on a ridiculous accent making Kurt cover his mouth with both hands to stifle his laughter.
"I can't believe you did that."
"I can't believe you didn't do that sooner."
The end of the day couldn't come quick enough, walking up to his apartment with Kelsey he leant his head on his phone as he dug out the keys, Kelsey on the other hand rolled her eyes around the place drinking it in and singing a little to herself in entertainment. The next thing they knew the neighboring apartment opened and Sebastian stood leaning on the doorframe eyeing up Kurt, Kelsey slowly stopped her little harmonies and looked between the two men and what Sebastian was looking at.
Kurt's ass.
She looked back and Sebastian knotted his eyebrows and cocked his head laughing when she nodded at Kurt's ass and doing a thumbs up in approval mouthing something along the lines of 'I'd tap that.'
"Ok Rach well me and Kels are just gonna chill for a bit and make some diner. I'll leave some in the oven for when you come back later. Ok? Bye." Kurt cut off the phone call doing a double take at the look on Kelsey's face giving him a questioning look; her lips looked like they were saying 'OoOoOoo' and her sight was looking directly behind him.
Kurt slowly turned to scoff at Sebastian.
"Can I help you?" he sneered leaning on the door with his keys dangling from his hand, Kelsey suddenly looked had her eyes transfixed on the awkward situation, her eyelashes batting in wonder.
"You could but I think I could help you more…" Kurt scowled when Kelsey whistled at the cheesy line and looked back at Sebastian with a glare. "I also appreciate all my escapades to make me a sandwich afterwards."
Kelsey by now was laughing at both the comment and look on Kurt's face, everyone knew that the 'Sandwich' scenario was a sexist saying most men bantered about. Before Kurt could answer Kelsey butted in knowing very well the porcelain fashionista was about to blow by the sudden throbbing vein that had appeared on his forehead.
"Oh Honey, If woman or a man in your case can get up and go to the kitchen after sex and make you a sandwich then clearly as a man you haven't done your job right and don't deserve a sandwich."
Sebastian's smirk dropped and Kurt smirked in response and crossed his arms.
"Whatever, I have this." He held up Kurt's hippo broach and Kurt felt his hand fly up to his blazer in search. "You dropped it when you ran into my abs this morning Gay face." He chucked the item so Kurt could catch it and then disappeared into the apartment leaving the both Kurt and Kelsey to laugh hysterically.
Just to let you guys know that Kelsey is a character of my own making, i thought it would be great to have a friend that Kurt works with seeing as Rachel has Brody and probably some other friends' in NYADA. She is mainly based on characteristics of a few of my friends' so I hope you liked her!
