Hey you guys! I'm really excited about the response I got from the first chapter. The few reviews I got had only nice things to say, and I got a whole bunch of alerts and some faves. Thanks to anyone who alerted or faved the story/my account. And extra thanks to those of you who also chose to review! And lots of love to 'ArtisanBleu' for being the first reviewer on my first story on this account.
You're all awesome! I'll try not to disappoint.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The next episode in the series "The Substitute" (ep. 2x7) has only one scene with Blaine in it, and it's told from Mercedes' point-of-view. She's daydreaming through most of it so I don't know how much of the conversation is real. Therefore, I've decided to exclude the scene, but mention it in passing. The next episode "Furt" (ep. 2x8) has no Blaine at all. He's barely mentioned, but once again some events from the episode may be brought up in this chapter. Basically this is a filler chapter that is more Blaine's thoughts in the time he isn't on the show. Next chapter will continue being one episode per chapter and include actual dialogue and scenes from the show. All of this is just my head cannon.

Anyways; Standard disclaimer applies. I make no profit from this story. I don't own Blaine or Kurt, not even the tender crook of their elbows. ;)

As they became good friends Blaine learned it was okay to be stereotypical; but it was even more fun to do and be the unexpected.

He finally had someone to talk to about his crazier interests like Vogue covers and fashion. They talked about other things too. They talked about everything really. It was weird for him when Kurt jokingly congratulated him for 'breaking the stereotype' every time he did. People never congratulated him for it, though he constantly felt like they were much too shocked when it happened. He liked the ironic way Kurt said it; like it was a joke between the two of them, like they were laughing at the people who tried to fit them into a little box. Blaine knew Kurt wasn't actually shocked at all, unlike so many others. He actually did like sports and stuff though. Mostly just football. He didn't understand why his sexual preference should affect that. Even Kurt who may first appear as a walking talking stereotype was not one.

It was easy to say that Kurt was quickly becoming one of his best friends, he enjoyed being able to talk about uncomfortable subject matter like gay rights with someone, but it was more than just having a gay friend. Being around Kurt was relaxing. He loved that even though Kurt was dealing with hardships he wasn't afraid to be who he was. He loved the way Kurt dressed and how he went on about 'Everyday is an opportunity for fashion.' Though Blaine would never dress up as much as Kurt did. It was too attention grabbing for him, Blaine preferred his simple clothes. (Though he thought the way he dressed when out of uniform was pretty snazzy, even if he was out of practice.) Blaine wondered absently if Kurt would approve of his wardrobe, which the boy had yet to see, as Blaine was always in uniform when they met for coffee. (They shared a 'perfectly healthy thank-you-very-much' obsession with coffee, one that kept them meeting at the 'Lima Bean', which was at the edge of Lima, close enough for Blaine to drive to often. And they did hang out often.)

"Hey Blaine?" David casually stuck his head into Blaine's dorm room where Blaine was dropping off his books and grabbing his keys. A lot of the boys just left their doors open on his floor, since they were always going in and out of each others rooms, Blaine was one of them.
"What is it?" Blaine smiled handsomely at him, putting his keys in his pocket.
David leaned against the doorway, "A few of us were going to head out. Don't know what we're going to do yet, though. Do you want to come?"
"Actually, I'm about to leave myself, thanks for offering though." Another polite smile.
David paused, and just looked at him. Blaine tilted his head.
"Is there something else?" More smiling.
"Okay, that's it. You're never so dapper when it's just the two of us, either you're hiding something from me behind that polite mask or you're holding in the fact that you're extremely happy and can't help but let loose those annoyingly sweet puppy-dog-eyed smiles."
A bit of both, actually. Blaine thought. He just shrugged, clapping David's shoulder as he walked forward stepping out of the room and locking the door. "I'm just hanging out with Kurt, he's introducing me to his best friend Mercedes."
"Sounds fun." David's lips twitched, holding back what he wanted to say. Blaine suppressed an eyeroll, but appreciated his friend's attempt to stay quiet on the matter. If Wes were here, David would have teased relentlessly, but the two were much more restrained when they were separated. Blaine started walking,
"I've gotta go, I'll see you." he nodded his goodbye to his friend and turned the corner. He could practically feel David's smirk behind him. No scratch that, he could feel it. And hear it too.
"Wes! There you are! Can you believe it? Blaine's ditching us for the 'teenage dream' boy again."
Blaine didn't know why he was blushing so hard but he could feel heat rushing to the back of his neck as he rushed done the stairs and out the door of their boarding house.

Time flew for Blaine these days. The last few weeks had passed in a blur of his many activities. Plus driving to Lima was time-consuming and his day always seemed shorter when he made the trip. Though he hadn't been able to do that as often as he'd like to. Kurt had been way too busy planning his father's wedding to his friend Finn's mom to spend much time with Blaine. He was cool with it, and he realized that they spent an awfully large chunk of time together for new friends anyways. Plus, Kurt had even asked Blaine's opinion on a couple of things for the wedding, which made him feel honored. (Though Blaine doubted that it affected Kurt's final decision in any way.) He found himself worrying whenever they did see each other though. Kurt hadn't been himself lately. He was upset. Kurt didn't have to talk about it for Blaine to know it was true. The way he threw himself into wedding planning and talked about little else was a big warning sign to Blaine. He knew the boy well enough to sense his distress. And he tried to come up with some way to help without making Kurt uncomfortable.

It's safe to say that he was shocked when Kurt asked him about how you went about transferring to Dalton. He wanted to know just in case something happened; apparently he had a bad feeling. Blaine knew he was the only person other than Kurt's father that had even the slightest inkling of what Kurt was considering, even though he urged Kurt to talk to his McKinley friends about it. It wasn't until after the wedding that Kurt actually had reason to act on the knowledge Blaine had given him. (Blaine unfortunately couldn't attend, and though he was pleased and astonished by the invite he would've only felt like he was intruding anyways.) Turns out Kurofsky was going back to Mckinley. And Kurt would not be. As soon as Kurt's mind was made up everything happened very fast. Blaine was secretly elated. Spending more time with Kurt, the beautiful boy he called his best friend was nothing to complain about.

Sorry for the shortness. Review are always welcome and I hope you enjoyed it!
