Author Rambles: I have SO much time on my hands since it's Summer vacation. It's pretty cool, actually. Writing fanfiction actually helps me pass a lot of time, too. I used to get bored all the time, but I found a new hobby! I hope you guys enjoy reading this as much I do writing it.
A/N: Here's another chapter! I know I said the chapter's length would increase, but apparently, not now. Would I like longer chapters? Yes. Would I intentionally spread a random word, or dedicate 1,000 words to describe a coffee shop in order to increase word count? No. I always end my chapters where it feels right. I actually tried to add something at the end of this one that focused on Sebastian, but it just didn't feel right, so I ended up taking it out. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this chapter!
Sebastian turned his head around and looked at Blaine questioningly, his eyebrows furrowed. He opened his mouth to say something, but Tina beat him to it.
"S-S-Sebastian? You're date is Sebastian!?" Tina looked at Blaine with a combination of anger and confusion. "And what does Kurt have to say about this!?"
I knew this was a bad idea. Blaine looked down at his lap, hoping Tina would leave. "Kurt doesn't know."
"And how do you think he'll react!? Do you know-" Tina stopped, her hand mid-air, when she realized people were staring at her the same the students in McKinley were in the hallway. Tina walked towards Blaine and slammed her hands on the table, leaning over so her face was near Blaine's. "Mark my words, Blaine Anderson. This is not the last you will hear from Tina Cohen-Chang!" She stormed out in a fit, once again forgetting her coffee. Blaine sat speechless, his mouth agape, for a while when Tina reentered the Lima Bean, still angry. She walked to the counter, picked up her coffee, and looked back at Blaine. "I forgot my coffee!"
Tina left again, and Blaine rubbed his thumb and index finger to rub his eyes in frustration. What have I done?
"Wow," Sebastian looked down at the floor, obviously confused, "Asian knows how to get angry."
"You don't even know," Blaine attempted a small laugh to lighten the mood.
"So what was that about anyway?" Sebastian kept his head down but looked up at Blaine. He did deserve an answer.
"It's nothing, Sebastian," Blaine said, still rubbing his eyes.
"Oh really?" Sebastian smirked, his head now up. He leaned in closer to Blaine, laying his arms on the table. "What about that Sadie Hawkins date?"
Blaine finally looked up at Sebastian. He had almost forgotten about that. "You don't have to go if you don't want to."
"Oh, no. I do," Blaine knew Sebastian was definitely planning something. "But I do expect something in return," Sebastian stood up, still grinning. He walked away, but stopped halfway towards the exit. He turned his head halfway toward Blaine, "and, uh, good luck with Kurt." Sebastian left after that.
Good luck with Kurt. Blaine heavily sighed and rested his head on the table. He would need it.
Blaine lied down on his bed, covering his face in his hands, taking a deep breath. Why did this all have to happen now?
Kurt: Skype. NOW.
Blaine dreaded the time when he actually had to face Kurt. He was frightening when he was angry, and when the reason he was angry was caused by Sebastian? Blaine couldn't even imagine the pure wrath he was about to face.
Blaine: I'm really busy. Can this wait til later?
Kurt: No. It can't.
Blaine: Why not?
Kurt: Get on now or I tell everyone what I saw on your browser history.
Oh, God...not that. Blaine buried his face deep into his pillow for a few seconds. Kurt finding that was the most embarrassing moment in his life, even more than the Rachel kiss.
Blaine: Fine.
After grabbing it from his desk, Blaine reluctantly opened his laptop and logged onto his Skype account. He was about to click on Kurt's name, but, once again, Kurt had been able to beat him. On the computer screen, Blaine saw Kurt staring right at him, emotionless, not saying a word. Ten seconds had passed with neither of them saying a word to each other. Blaine looked down at his keyboard, refusing to stare at Kurt.
"Um," Blaine was as quiet as a mouse, "Kurt-"
"Sebastian," Kurt's loud voice startled Blaine, making him slightly flinch. "What in the world were you doing with Sebastian!?"
Blaine looked up at his computer screen to see Kurt's face, which was still expressionless. Blaine was at a loss for words. "Kurt-"
"Blaine, he blinded you last year! How can you even trust him!?" Kurt, now obviously anger, threw his hands in the air, making random gestures with every word, as if it actually stressed his points.
"Kurt," Blaine knew there was no reasoning with Kurt, but he had to at least try, "he apologized and you know that. He even stepped down as leader of the Warblers."
"That means nothing!"
"It's completely fine. He said he turned over a new leaf."
"Oh, and you actually believed him," Kurt let out a small laugh of disbelief.
"Yes! I did! Everyone deserves second chances," Blaine knew they were talking about Sebastian, but the last comment was something a little more personal. If Kurt noticed it, he didn't show it.
"Okay, so if someone murdered innocent people, I assume they deserve a second chance?" Kurt wasn't ever giving someone like Sebastian another shot.
"He didn't murder people!"
"But he hurt people," Kurt moved his face nearer to the screen. "You, especially."
Blaine opened his mouth, but was unable to actually think of a counter-argument.
"Exactly," Kurt leaned back, confident he had won the conversation. He placed one of his hands on his chin and looked away from the computer.
"He's changed, Kurt," Kurt looked back at the computer.
"I can't believe you, Blaine!" Kurt raised his voice in an abrasive manner. "He is evil, Blaine! He put rock salt in your eye after trying to steal you away from the New Directions."
Why are we even fighting about this? It was impossible to convince Kurt that Sebastian wasn't really that bad. Blaine decided it would just be tedious to talk about him. He tried to change the subject to something he had been wanting to ask Kurt since he found out about Adam. "Kurt," Blaine looked away again shyly, "why are you so angry anyway?"
Kurt stopped shouting and stared at Blaine with soft, compassionate eyes. "What do you mean?"
"I mean like," Blaine hated confronting his problems head-on, especially with someone he loved so much, "do you..." Blaine couldn't bare to finish the sentence. Tears were welling up in eyes, threatening to break out like a waterfall. His throat was dry. He could barely breathe. Blaine buried his face in the palms of his hands.
"Blaine," Kurt's voice was hushed. He didn't know what he could say.
"Do you still love me?" Blaine looked back at the computer screen. He broke down right in front of Kurt. Tears streamed down his face. His voice cracked. He was panting. He buried his head in his hands again, his heart racing.
"Um, Blaine," Kurt looked away from the screen for a minute, then looked back at Blaine, "You know..." Kurt hesitated for a while before continuing, "you know I'll always love you...but...I'm with Adam, and I love him now." Kurt wanted to avoid actually telling him this, but he wanted him to realize that Blaine couldn't keep chasing him. Kurt had a new boyfriend. One that made him happy. Kurt tried to be gentle, but he knew also had to be blunt to make Blaine understand. "He makes me feel special. Loved, even. Blaine...I've moved on." Why do I have to tell Blaine this? Why, why, why, WHY? "You should too." A few seconds later, Kurt, who was now also softly crying, disconnected, leaving Blaine to his misery.
