Author's Note: This is my third update within 24 hours, so I'm seriously lagging guys! I'm so ecstatic you all like the story so much! (On a completely unrelated subject Dreaming-Of-A-Nightmare and I are getting married and adopting beautiful Kurtofsky babies!) The song is "Satellite Heart" by Anya Marina. If you haven't heard it yet, you should definitely listen to it. I do not own Glee, never will. Thanks for sticking through this everyone!
Kurt was starting to wonder how the days were moving by so fast. It was already July third, which meant that he had been staying with Dave for half a month. He smiled slightly, remembering how panicked he was when he first found out he would be staying with the Karofsky's. Now he couldn't even imagine his summer without them.
Although Kurt and Dave had both become good friends, there was something off. Dave no longer made contact, and if he did he would either apologize or back off and ignore it. Kurt was starting to think that maybe he did something wrong to make the other male uncomfortable so he backed off. Although their relationship still stayed the same.
"I'm a satellite heart, lost in the dark. I'm spun out so far, you stop I start. But I'll be true to you.""Kurt! Grocery store run, you coming?" Dave asked, his head the only thing Kurt was able to see from his position on his bed. He smiled widely and nodded his head as he sat up and followed Dave out to the truck.
He buckled his seatbelt and smiled to his friend as they started down the now familiar rode to the local store. "Is it just me, or are we always going to the grocery store?"
"Yes. But remember what happened last time we tried to do something else?"
Kurt crossed his arms, chuckling a little bit as he nodded his head in agreement. "That cow has been in my dreams way to many times that I would like." He pouted.
Dave smiled, resting his arm on the back of Kurt's seat, keeping his other hand on the steering wheel as he drove. Kurt glanced over at him for a moment before scooting a tiny bit closer on the connected seat until they were almost touching. He chewed his lip self-consciously until Dave took the final step, pulling Kurt to his side and wrapping his arm around the males shoulder.
Kurt let out a breath he didn't know he was holding, letting his body relax for the rest of the ride.
They did not hold hands and walk like lovers through the store, and for that Kurt was thankful. He still couldn't really understand his feelings for Dave yet, and was scared of becoming a couple with him like that. He wanted to be sure of himself before he ever attempted something like dating or having a boyfriend.
"Dave, why are we here?" Kurt suddenly asked, realizing they just went shopping a few days ago. Dave turned to him with a smile.
"My family has a Fourth of July barbeque and we're the ones holding it this year." He responded, throwing a few packages of hotdogs into the cart. Kurt nodded but felt something empty in his chest. He'd spent Fourth of July with his father every year for the past sixteen years, and suddenly he was so far away. It was so weird for him; he'd have to think of something to do tomorrow so he wouldn't invade the Karofsky family party.
"And don't even think about ditching out on me." Dave added, as if reading his thoughts. Kurt suddenly wondered if he had a case of word vomit again, but Dave's genuine smile told him that the jock honestly wanted him there.
Kurt beamed happily and nodded his head quickly. "Yes!" he responded, getting a smirk from Dave before he put up his uninterested face again. "I mean, yeah, sure, I'll come."
"You're such a bitch Hummel." Dave laughed, causing a small growl from Kurt as he smacked him playfully with a bag of hamburger buns.
"Hitting me with your buns now, Hummel?"
Kurt turned a shade of red before retorting with a "You wish, Karofsky!"
Dave grinned and pulled the smaller boy into a hug before the two of them finished shopping for what they needed tomorrow.
On the car ride back Kurt wasn't nervous of curling right next to Dave.
Kurt watched the tall jock through his Dolce sunglasses as secretly as he could. So far he'd met almost all of Dave's family members. (Including Dave's grandmother who insisted that Kurt was her 'little Davies' boyfriend.) It turns out Dave's family was completely accepting of his sexuality.)) The boy had seriously built up some muscles and had the beginning of a six pack that was enough to make Kurt drool. And with the bruises completely gone he was just way too hot.
Oh my god, he was checking Dave out. Kurt panicked for a slight second before shrugging his shoulders. What the hell? It was summer anyways. Why couldn't he check out the hottie in the pool?
Kurt was pulled out of his reverie by a high pitched little girl's voice and a small tugging on his swimsuit. He looked down to see a little girl who looked a little bit like Dave with long brown, curly hair and big brown eyes. "Gramma says that your Davie's boyfwiend."
Kurt cracked a smile at the little girl's change of word and blushed a tiny bit. "Uhm..."
"I'm Nessie! Davie's little cousin! What's your name?"
Kurt felt like this little girl had him on a rollercoaster, switching subjects every five seconds. "I'm Kurt." He responded with a small smile.
"Okays!" she smiled before turning towards Dave a few feet away. "Hey Davie! I want Kurtie to be your boyfwiend! Okay? So you should ask him out!" she called out, causing Kurt to turn a bright shade of red and spit out his lemonade on his swimsuit and the rest of the party to crack up.
Dave cracked a smile as he walked to his little cousin, picking her up in his arms and giving a kiss on her cheek as he held her. "You do now pipsqueak?"
"Yes!" she cheered happily.
"What do you say, Kurt? Wanna go on a date with me?" Dave asked with a small smirk on his face.
"No Davie! You have to ask Kurtie if he wants to go on a date with you!" Nessie laughed.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Kurtie, would you like to go on a date with me?" Dave asked.
Kurt glanced around through his glasses to see a few of Dave's family member's eaves dropping. He then saw the hopeful look on Dave's little cousin's face and he couldn't say no. "Sure Davie, I would love to go on a date with you." Nessie squealed in joy and Dave smiled, releasing the little girl in his arms and she ran off. Dave sat down next to Kurt and gave a small smile.
"You know, you don't have to go on a date with me."
"No, I really want to Dave."
"Good. I paid Nessie ten dollars because I knew you couldn't resist a little kid."
Kurt gaped at him for a moment before letting out a loud, musical laugh. Dave stood up with a grin and Kurt watched him for a moment. "You're such a con-artist!"
"But I still got a date with you." Dave laughed.
"You've also got water in your ears."
"What?"
Kurt grinned before running towards Dave and pushing him into the water, where Dave soon resurfaced, spitting the water out of his mouth and shaking out his head.
"I can't believe you just did that."
Kurt shrugged his shoulders before turning to walk away with a smirk on his lips.
"Sorry Davie. I guess I slipped."
At least now Dave wouldn't see just how excited he was for their date, humming away to the song he'd been listening to yesterday.
"But I'll be true to you, no matter what you do..."
