A/N: So, for all you who are reading my stories thank you so much for your support, it really, cheers me up to see someone loves it.
"Alright class before the bell rings I want you all to partner up for our upcoming, Valentine's Day English project: Love means here are you directions…" Kurt tuned the rest of Ms. Nolan's boring lecture out. He looked around the classroom and saw; Wes & David, Jeff & Nick, Thad & Trent already partnered up then his picturesque, scenic, charming, beautiful best friend caught his eye. Blaine Anderson. Kurt was in love with his best friend, mentor, and classmate. It was undeniable. Blaine seemed to be zoned out as well, looking very interested in his notebook, where Kurt could only make out the drawing of a heart with some writing in it. Blaine as though sensing Kurt looking at him, looked up and mouthed 'Want to work together?' and all Kurt could do was nod and stare as Blaine smiled and went back to his drawing.
"Mr. Hummel!" Ms. Nolan's booming voice shook him out of his thoughts. "Is there something in particular over there that keeps you from listening to my lesson?" 'Yes!' Kurt's thoughts went immediately to Blaine
"No." He replied quickly and perhaps a little too quickly seeing as Nick, Jeff, Trent, Thad, Wes, David, & some other Warblers gave him knowing looks and winks whilst giggling. He got wayward glances from other students who didn't seem to know what was going on. Also, was that a blush rising on Blaine's cheeks? No! It couldn't possibly be.
Finally, the bell rang putting Kurt out of his misery. He was almost back to the dorm when he felt a hand grip his shoulder, he turned on his heels to see Blaine.
"Hey…wow glad I caught you…you really, tore out of there…shouldn't we work a little on this project?" Blaine said panting.
"I have no idea what she said and from what I saw of you doodling I figure you don't either."
Blaine blushed at the mention of his drawing of his & Kurt's name together in a heart. "Don't you ever pay attention?" he managed.
"Nope, so this project?" Kurt said. They walked towards Kurt's dorm and started working on the project.

"Romeo, if I profane with my unworthiest hand, this holy shrine, the gentle sin is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss." Kurt recited Juliet's line.
"Juliet good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much, which mannerly devotion shows in this; For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, and palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss." Blaine recited Romeo's line.
"Okay so we got that part down finally!" Kurt said.
"Yeah, thanks to a special someone's help," Blaine pointed him self then at Kurt, "because someone never read it."
"What even happened in Rome and Juliet?"
"Well, in the wise words of a one Raven Baxter: Boy likes girl, girls likes boy, they both die. Cry, cry, cry, the end."
"Uh huh very wise" Kurt said raising an eyebrow.
"Would you rather read it?"
"No."
"Exactly."
"Back to work?" Kurt asked unhappily.
"Back to work" Blaine replied.
~oOo~
"Boo, how is it at Dalton and how's loverboy?" Mercedes asked over the phone.
"Well, it's really been and great and first of all, his name's not loverboy it's Blaine and second of all he's perfectly fine thank you" Kurt practically growled the last part.
"Jeesh, sorry anyways, here's Rach" there was some fumbling in the back ground until Rachel's voice rang clear over the speakers.
"KUUURRRT you need to come back and have a girls' night!"
"I knoooow, and I want to but, I…well, I have a lot to handle."
"Okay, okay well we're going to watch Sound Of Music and eat junk food, and gossip" Rachel teased him with his favorite things.
"Awwww" Kurt whined.
"Help me-" Mercedes whispered through the phone.
"Yeah, well you left us here alone…ow 'Cedes don't pull when braiding my hair it hurts…ow stop that-bye Kurt love you" there was some rustling, yelling, and giggling on the other line then it cut to the dial tone.
"Love you too bye" Kurt whispered giggling half-heartedly. He wanted to go back SO badly. But, sadly he couldn't. GAHHHHHHHH why couldn't Karofsky just hop off!
[Flashback]
"I am talking to you!" Kurt said stomping into the locker room.
"The girls' lockers room is next door" Karofsky said putting things in his locker
"What is your problem?"
"Excuse me?"
"What are you so scared of?"
"Besides you sneaking in here to take a peak at my junk?"
"Oh yeah, every straight guys nightmare that all us gays are secretly out to molest and convert you, well guess what Ham hock your not my type."
"That right?"
"Yeah, I don't dig on chubby boys who sweat too much and are gonna be bald by the time they're thirty."
"Do not push me Hummel!"
"You gonna hit me? ...Do it."
"Don't push me!"
"Hit me because it's not gonna change who I am. You can't punch the gay out of me anymore than I can punch the ignoramus out of you."
"GET OUT OF MY FACE!"
"You are nothing but a scared little boy who can't handle how extraordinarily ordinary you are!"
Karofsky kisses Kurt. He plants his hands on his cheeks so hard, there red when he pulls away. He goes back in for another kiss but, Kurt pushes him off. Karofsky glares at Kurt. He screams punches a locker then storms out the locker room leaving behind a startled Kurt.
[End of flashback]
'Knock-Knock' "Can I come in?" Blaine's voice came from the other side of the door thankfully, startling Kurt out of his awful nightmare.
"Yeah, I guess" Kurt replied tearfully.
"Hey I bro-OH GOD! What's wrong?" Blaine said rushing in setting two coffee cups on the desk and sat down next to Kurt.
"Nothing 'Cedes and Rach just called, and then I had a bad flashback of Karofsky."
"The kiss?"
"Yeah…th-the k-kiss m-my first kiss."
"Ah honey it's okay" Blaine said pulling Kurt onto his lap and rubbing soothing circles into his back.
"Thank you Blaine, for everything, you've always been there. I-I can't believe I was lucky enough to be blessed with a friend like you, and after all this time you still love me and I will and have always loved you."
With that Kurt pulled Blaine into a deep, passionate kiss. Blaine could taste Kurt's tears and could feel Kurt's hands in his hair and his lips turn into a smile. He wrapped his arms around Kurt's waist. Kurt was the one to break the kiss.
"I'm pathetic" Kurt half-chuckled, half-whispered and tried to get off Blaine's lap.
"No, you're not. Kurt I have always loved you. Ever since that morning at Dalton when, I saw you on that staircase. I knew it then I just wasn't sure. I saw it in your eyes. When I practically, sang Teenage Dream to you. I accepted you for who you were. And you did too. When you sang Blackbird, it moved me Kurt." Blaine said not letting go of Kurt.
"Well, fuck."
"Yeah you think? You don't know how long I've wanted to tell you that."
"Same here."

"Romeo, if I profane with my unworthiest hand, this holy shrine, the gentle sin is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss." Kurt recited Juliet's line looking deep into Blaine, his boyfriend's, eyes.
"Juliet good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much, which mannerly devotion shows in this; For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, and palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss." Blaine recited Romeo's line with a deeper passion than before.
"Love is being accepted for who you are and accepting the other person for who they are as well. It's looking over one another's flaws, and focusing on their inner not just outer beauty. It's finding each other, like Romeo and Juliet, or Tony and Maria." They said together and the whole class applauded.
"I love you" Blaine whispered.
"I love you too you big goof ball" Kurt said leaning over and kissing Blaine. The whole class cheered and sent up some wolf whistles there was even a few from Ms. Nolan.
