Author's notes: argh, I didn't mean to make you wait so long for this chapter! I've just been busy with school and whenever I had free time I didn't really feel like writing because I just wanted to take a break from everything. I'm sorry.

Please keep reviewing, the nice messages some of you left me really made me wanna write, and I wanna get better, so critics are always welcome too. Thank you in advance!

Dear Blaine,

this might be awkward, since we don't know each other and well, let's be real, I'm not an excellent writer.I don't even know where to start, so I'll just, you know, try not to think too much about what I'm typing.

I got a call from Rachel about a week ago, and she told me she wasn't sure why and how things got there, but she gave my email address to a guy with whom she's just started being friends. I was a bit surprised, to say the least, but I was fine with it, especially once she told me about the conversation you two had about me. I never say no when it comes to making new friends. So I waited, expecting to receive an email from you in a few days. But it's been six days (I guess) and I got nothing, so I decided to make the first move (decision I'll probably regret as soon as I click on 'send').

So, hi. I'm Kurt Hummel, which you already know, and I'm currently attending my first year of college at NYU. It's very nice here, I have a lot of friends, an annoying roommate named Kate (I love her, but she was reading over my shoulder so she deserved it) and a cat named Donatella who's the apple of my eye (yes, I named her after Donatella Versace – you can laugh if you want). I'm a sarcastic and witty person with very little patience and an amazing sense of fashion. In fact I work as an intern at Vogue.

I think that's all I have to say about me. I hope I didn't sound too confident or stupid and that you won't think I'm an asshole and change your mind about all of this. Please write me back. I would love to be your friend.

Take care,

Kurt

As he finished reading the email, Blaine mentally cursed himself: he had definitely waited too long to write to Kurt, and ended up making a bad impression on him. He hoped he was still on time to make up for it, and he immediately started writing an answer.

Hello Kurt,

I'm really sorry about not contacting you sooner, but I didn't expect Rachel to tell you she gave me your address and honestly I was a bit araid and didn't really know how to explain the reason why I asked her about you, in first place. I just wanted to find the right words, and I'm super anxious about this kind of things, so I procrastinated. I hope you didn't think too badly of me. I'm just really insecure, as you may have imagined by now.

The thing is, I just heard a lot about you from the oldest New Directions members, and I couldn't help but feel some kind of connection between me and you. I can't really explain it, also bexcause I don't consider myself a great writer either (but I actually think you are! I loved your email. Really!) and I'm making a big effort at the moment.

So well, I would love to be your friend too. I don't know what Rachel told you about me, but I'm gonna introduce myself now.

I'm Blaine Anderson, a senior at McKinley High School, and until this year I'm pretty sure no one was even aware of my existence, except maybe for my parents, but thast's okay because it was mostly my fault. I was a really introverted person. No, I think introverted is an euphemism. And I'm still very shy, but lately things got better and there have been some changes in my lie that made me realize I just needed to let myself go a little, which is why I finally decided to join glee club and I managed to make some friends. Music is my passion, it's always been, but I've always had the tendence to lock myself up in my own little world and I didn't think I needed anything other than me and my thoughts and well, fantasies. I used to fantasize a lot, and I still do. I hope you won't think I'm too weird.

There's not much more to say about my life. I have a brother who's five years older than me and lives in Los Angeles. He dreams of being a Hollywood star. I dream of being a musician, so I'd really like to get into NYADA with Rachel next year. She seems quite determined to get in, and so am I. I know I can count on her for a help with my audition. I love playing the piano so maybe my performance will include that. I'm not sure, but there's time to figure it out. Oh god, now I'm rambling, sorry.

Can I ask you why you decided to attend NYU? Didn't you try to get into Tisch at least? I mean, Tina told me about how good your voice was and how much you loved singing, so I'm just wondering. Did you change your mind, or do you just like fashion more? Forgive me if I'm asking you so many questions, it's just that you sound like an interesting person and that made me curious.

If you wanna know anything else about me, don't hesitate to ask in your next email.

Until next time,

Blaine

He clicked on 'send' and layed back on the chair, taking deep breaths. This was it. There was no turning back now.

He got up to go to the kitchen and made himself a cup of tea and take his mind off everything. He was getting too nervous.

A couple of hours later, in an apartment in New York, Kurt got home from work and ran straight to his bedroom to turn on his computer and check his inbox. A huge smile spread on his face as he yelled "Kate! He answered me! He finally answered me! I told you I didn't scare him off!"

"Wonderful! Pop the champagne!" answered the girl from her room.

Kurt laughed and opened the email with a satisfied sigh.
