A/N: Ok, so this chapter is really short and I'm sorry, I have more written, I just wanted to end a chapter where this one ends. There will probably be one or two more chapters after this one. I may post in a week; I'm planning a super-short-notice vacation and all the plans are still falling into place.

The days went by, Blaine going to school in a trance, not speaking to anyone. There was a sort of unspoken agreement between him and Burt. Sometime after the Hudmels (minus Kurt of course) finished dinner, Blaine would show up have a short chat with Burt and then crash on the couch. Everyone knew that he wasn't actually sleeping, just lying on the couch in the dark, sometimes drifting off into a restless slumber. So when Thursday morning rolled around the house was silent in an anxious sleep because that was the night that Burt had predicted Kurt's return.
Blaine was lying face down on the couch, with half of his body hanging off the edge. He was in a sort of half-asleep nightmare state, mumbling nonsense words.

Kurt quietly closed the Navigator's door, and tried to sneakily creep up to the house. He got to the door and inserted his key into the lock, moving very slowly. Silently, he turned the key and tried to enter the house's threshold without a sound. His plan was to close the door behind him then quickly place his keys on the kitchen table, so his father would know that he was home, and tiptoe up to his bedroom. What he was not expecting, was Blaine sleeping on the couch.
When he walked through the doorway into the family room he jumped a little at seeing the body on the couch. Blaine promptly rolled over, mumbling a weak, "Kurt."
Realization dawned on Kurt's face and, thinking Blaine was awake, whispered, "Blaine?"
At this point, Blaine did wake up, lifting his head off the couch and, seeing Kurt standing there, scrambled to get up, only to end up rolling off the couch, hitting his head on the coffee table's corner.

A/N: "If you want to build your love up, put your hate down."
Just a quote from the music I'm listening to…I thought it was inspirational. So, sorry about the length and ending… maybe I'll post Friday….hmmmm. No promises though.
Reviews are love!
