Chapter 10
After the police left, Kurt, Adam, Rachel, and Santana were gathered in the living room looking at the mess Blaine had made of the loft. Adam was still feeling the after effects of banging his head against the brick wall when Blaine punched him in the face. He was sitting in a chair with his head in his hands.
"Are you sure you're all right, sweetie?" Kurt asked. "Maybe we should go to the ER."
"I'll be fine, love," Adam said. "I just have a splitting headache, and I'm a bit dizzy. I just need to take some Advil, and lie down for a bit. Do you have any Advil?"
"I'll go get it," Rachel said, as she headed towards the bathroom.
"Do you want to go home?" Kurt asked. "Or do you want to stay here?"
"I don't feel like getting on the subway or in a cab right now," Adam said. "So if you don't mind, I'd like to stay here."
"Yeah, that's fine, sweetie," Kurt said.
Rachel walked over to Adam, and said, "How many Advil do you want, Adam?" She handed him a cup of water.
"Two please," Adam replied.
Rachel handed Adam two Advil.
Adam took the Advil, and started to get up. He stumbled a bit, but Kurt grabbed onto him.
"Are you sure you're all right, Adam?" Kurt asked.
"I'm just dizzy, love," Adam said.
"Here, let me walk you to the bedroom," Kurt said. He wrapped his arm around Adam and they walked into the bedroom.
Kurt's sheets were rumpled and dirty. "Blaine must have been sleeping in my bed," Kurt said with a look of disgust. "Why don't you sit at my vanity table while I change the sheets really quick?" He walked Adam over to the vanity chair. Kurt changed the sheets and said, "Do you want something more comfortable to wear to bed, sweetie?"
"Sure," Adam said.
Kurt got some pajama bottoms and a t-shirt, and helped Adam change. He helped Adam get into bed, and said, "Do you need anything else, honey?"
"I'm OK, love," Adam replied.
"I'm gonna go help Rachel and Santana clean up the living room," Kurt said. "I'll be back in a little bit. Try to get some sleep. I love you, Adam."
"I love you too, Kurt," Adam replied.
They kissed.
Kurt walked into the living room, where Rachel and Santana were cleaning up the mess Blaine had made in the apartment. He said, "I can take care of cleaning up," Kurt said. "It's my creepy ex who made this mess."
"We can take care of it, Kurt," Rachel said. "You should go be with Adam."
"He's OK," Kurt said. "He's just trying to fall asleep."
"Kurt, go be with Adam," Santana said. "We got this covered. It's not as bad as it looks in here. We'll be done in ten minutes."
"Are you sure?" Kurt asked.
"Yes," Rachel said. "I'm just relieved that Blaine is in custody now, and we don't have to worry about him anymore."
Kurt sighed and said, "So am I. Thanks for cleaning up in here, and thanks for being here for me this week. I love you both." He hugged and kissed Rachel and Santana.
"I love you too, Kurt," Rachel said.
"I love you too, Kurt," Santana said. "Now go be with that hot guy in your bed."
Kurt smiled, and walked into his bedroom.
Adam smiled when he saw Kurt, and said, "Hey."
"Hi, sweetie," Kurt said. "Rachel and Santana are going to clean up so I get to be with you." He smiled at Adam.
"Well, come get into bed and make me forget about my headache," Adam said.
Kurt changed into pajama bottoms and a t-shirt, and got into bed with Adam. They cuddled in close to each other, facing each other, their heads just a few inches apart.
"Thank you for everything you've done for me this week, Adam," Kurt said as he caressed Adam's face. "Your love and support this week is what got me through everything with Blaine this week, sweetie. I am so lucky to have you in my life." He kissed Adam.
"I am glad that I was able to be there for you, Kurt," Adam said. "Hopefully now, we can put that behind us and focus on building our bond to each other. I am so glad I met you, my love."
"But will you still love me now that life will be boring and routine?" Kurt teased.
"Nothing is boring with you, Kurt," Adam said. "You are the most fascinating man I have ever met. We still have so much to learn about each other, love, and I'm looking forward to every moment of our lives together. I can't wait to go to Lima with you in two weeks. I know that you will be taking care of your father, but I hope we will have some alone time so you can show me around your hometown. And I hope that we will have time for you to show me pictures and share stories about your childhood. I want to see adorable little Kurt pictures."
"I can't wait for you to come to Lima with me, too," Kurt said. "I can't wait for you to meet my dad and stepmother. And my brother Finn, too."
"Should I get a hotel room somewhere in Lima for the week?" Adam asked.
"Don't be silly, Adam," Kurt said. "You're staying at my dad's house with me."
"Good, I can't wait," Adam said.
"Tell me more about your mom, Adam," Kurt said.
"My mom is an amazing woman," Adam said. "She is a very talented flautist. She played with the London symphony, but gave it up to move here with my dad. When she moved back to England, she decided that she didn't want to perform in orchestras anymore. She still plays on recordings now, but she has dedicated herself to raising funds for the arts in London, and she teaches flute too."
"She sounds amazing, Adam," Kurt said.
"She really is, Kurt," Adam replied. "She can't wait to meet you. She will be coming to New York for my graduation in May. We will definitely have to spend some time with her when she is here. She's going to love you."
"I can't wait to meet her, sweetie," Kurt said.
Kurt and Adam lied in bed for several hours talking and kissing. Without the threat of Blaine stalking Kurt over their heads, they were both a lot more relaxed and carefree.
"I love seeing you smile and hearing you laugh, Kurt," Adam said. "This week has been very stressful, but I am glad the weight is lifted off your shoulders now."
"Me too," Kurt said. "How's your head?"
Adam put his hand on the back of his head and felt the bump. He said, "A bit tender, but it doesn't hurt as much now."
"Good," Kurt said. "I'm getting kind of hungry."
"Me too," Adam said.
"How about if I run out and get a pizza?" Kurt said. "We can eat pizza in bed and talk some more."
"That sounds great," Adam replied.
"What kind of pizza do you want, sweetheart?" Kurt asked.
"Whatever you want is fine, love," Adam replied. "I'm not picky."
"How does Hawaiian sound?" Kurt asked.
"Perfect," Adam replied.
"I'll be back in a while," Kurt said, as he got out of bed. "I love you, Adam."
Adam said, "I love you, too, Kurt."
They kissed.
Kurt put on some jeans and his boots, and walked into the living room, where Rachel and Santana were watching television. He said, "I'm running out to get some pizza. Do you want some?"
"We already ate dinner," Rachel said. "How is Adam?"
"He's doing fine," Kurt said.
"That's great," Rachel said.
"I'll be back in a little while," Kurt said. He went to the pizza place down the street, and then went back to the apartment.
Adam was sitting up in the living room with Rachel and Santana. He smiled when he saw Kurt, and said, "Hello, love."
"Hi, sweetheart," Kurt said. He kissed Adam. "Do you want to eat in here, or in my room?"
"We can eat in here, love," Adam replied.
Kurt got plates, and drinks, and sat down with Adam.
Adam said, "Rachel, Santana, are you going back to Lima for spring break?"
"I am going on another Rosie O'Donnell cruise with my dads that week," Rachel said.
Santana said, "I'm looking forward to having a week here alone."
"Adam's coming to Lima with me," Kurt said.
"And I'm looking forward to seeing where you all came from, and meeting Kurt's family," Adam said.
"I am so glad to be out of Lima," Santana said. "That town is the most boring place on earth. We just have the Lima Bean and Breadstix to hand out at."
"West Lima has a gay bar that my dads used to go to," Rachel said.
"I used a fake ID to get in there one night," Kurt said.
"You never told me that," Rachel said.
"Blaine and I went there to meet Sebastian one night," Kurt said. "I try not to think about it that night very much. It wasn't a great night."
"What happened, Kurt?" Santana asked.
"Let's just say that Blaine and alcohol are not a good mix," Kurt said.
"I know that all too well," Rachel said.
"Come on, Kurt," Santana said. "Tell us what happened in Scandals."
"I've never told anyone about that night," Kurt said.
"Just tell us, Kurt," Santana said.
"Blaine had too much to drink, and he tried to force me to have sex with him in the car in the parking lot that night," Kurt said.
"I know you dated him for a long time, Kurt," Adam said. "But he's a real bastard."
"I know," Kurt said. "I probably should have broken up with him after that night."
Adam said, "Well, he's in your past now, love."
When they finished dinner, Adam said, "My head is starting to pound again. Do you have more Advil?"
Rachel said, "I'll go get it." She walked out of the room.
"Do you think you'll be OK for school tomorrow, honey?" Kurt asked.
"I hope so," Adam said.
Rachel came back with the Advil.
Adam said, "Thank you, Rachel." He took the Advil, and said, "I think I will go lie down again."
"I'll go with you, hon," Kurt said.
Kurt and Adam said good night to Rachel and Santana, and went into Kurt's bedroom. They climbed into bed together.
Adam pulled Kurt into his arms and said, "I have a confession to make."
"What is it, honey?" Kurt asked.
"My head feels fine now," Adam replied. "I just wanted to be alone with you."
"I like that idea," Kurt said.
They began to make out, and eventually fell asleep in each other's arms.
