A dream. A beautiful dream. A dream of Kurt coming back, of kissing him, the words "I love you" repeated over and over again, of not letting go. Only this time, it didn't hurt. Blaine opened his eyes, not able to believe what he saw. Kurt, sleeping beside him, his breathing deep and steady. He smiled to himself. Oh God, it wasn't a dream. Kurt was here, in his bed, they were back together, they were in love again. He never wanted to forget this feeling, he promised himself that he wouldn't. For a while he just laid there and looked at Kurt sleep so peacefully. Then he slowly moved over to place a kiss on Kurt's cheek. He started to stir, but Blaine didn't move. Their faces were inches from each other. Kurt slowly opened his eyes and looked at Blaine and grinned. "Hey you," he said. "Hey.." "That is the best way I have ever woken up," Kurt said stroking Blaine's cheek with the palm of his hand. "I know. Me too." Blaine said softly. "Just seeing you here.. and realizing last night wasn't a dream." "It definitely wasn't" Kurt said and kissed Blaine's lips. Blaine moved to lie on his back and Kurt turned and laid on his stomach, resting on Blaine's chest, moving his fingers in circles on his bare skin. Blaine looked at Kurt and said, "I love you so much, Kurt." Kurt looked in Blaine's eyes, surprised, but pleased at his words. He smiled, "I love you more," he said with a grin. Blaine laughed and said: "Yeah, right."

They locked eyes for a few seconds, Kurt leaning in to kiss Blaine, but they were interrupted by Kurt's phone ringing and they both let out a sigh. Kurt reached for it across Blaine on the nightstand. "It's Rachel. Shoot I forgot to call her yesterday." He was still lying on Blaine when he answered. "Hi Rachel. I'm so sorry I forgot to call you." Blaine couldn't hear what she said on the other end of the phone. "Yeah, I landed safely," he said grinning at Blaine. There was another short pause. "Well, actually.. I'm with Blaine," Kurt answered her, he chuckled at her response. "Yes, really," he said. "Hi Rachel," Blaine yelled into the phone. They both laughed. "Yeah, it's very true," Kurt said. "Okay, bye. Love you too." He said ending the phone call. He turned to Blaine, "She says hi, and she was very happy that I am here with you." "Well.." Blaine said, stroking Kurt's cheek, "I am very happy you're here too." "Me too," Kurt smiled, and raised himself so he could kiss Blaine on his lips. The kiss was long and soft. It was like they melted into one being. Perfect.

When Kurt finally pulled away Blaine let out a moan of disappointment. Kurt laughed. "I am sorry, but we have plenty of time to do that during the weekend." "You're staying the whole weekend?" "Yeah, it was the plan, actually I don't have to leave until Monday, but only if you want me to." "Of course I do! I just didn't think you could get off work for the whole weekend." Blaine said. "Well, I had a talk with Isabelle, and she let me have the weekend off." "That was nice of her." Kurt nodded. "Yeah." There was a moment of silence where they just looked at each other, before Kurt said: "Maybe I should call my dad and tell him I am here, we could go see him." "Sure," Blaine said and nodded. "Then I'll just take a quick shower." Kurt smiled at him and Blaine kissed him before making his way to the bathroom. Kurt called his dad, who was surprised, but happy to hear he was in town and they agreed they would have dinner that night.

Kurt fetched his bag from the car and found some clothes in it and put them on, before he remembered that he used to have a drawer there, with clothes and everything he needed for a sleepover. It made his stomach hurt a little bit to think about it in the past tense. Out of curiosity he went to the top drawer that used to belong to him and opened it. It was empty. He was surprised to see that. He thought Blaine would have filled it with his own stuff again, but he hadn't. He heard Blaine coming, and quickly closed it again, moving away from the dresser. Blaine walked through the door with a smile, and went to the dresser to find some clothes in the bottom drawer. "Soooo.." Kurt started while Blaine got dressed. Blaine turned around to face Kurt as he was unfolding his shirt. "Yeah?" he asked. "Well, I couldn't help myself, and I saw that you left the top drawer empty." Blaine's smile faded a little. "You know, the one that used to be mine." There was a moment of silence. "Oh.. Yeah well, it didn't really feel right to use it." Blaine shrugged, the corner of his mouth twitching into a tiny smile before he pulled the shirt over his head. "I was kind of hoping you would come back and use it again one day. And putting my stuff in it just seemed too final. You know, like you never would… come back." Blaine looked at the floor, slightly embarrassed, when he felt Kurt's hand on the side of his face. Kurt's face was close to Blaine's when he said: "That is the sweetest, most romantic thing I have ever heard." Blaine smiled back at Kurt who was grinning. Blaine shrugged his shoulders, "Well…" he said, and their lips met once again for a gentle kiss.

Then, while Blaine went downstairs to make breakfast, Kurt put the stuff from his bag in the drawer. Blaine was toasting bread when he felt Kurt's arms wrap around him from behind. "Mmmh. It smells so good!" Blaine smiled. "Yeah, and it's all for you." They sat down at the table and as they ate, Blaine mentioned, what they had both been avoiding. "You know…" he said, looking Kurt in the eye. "I think we have to talk about everything.. that happened." Kurt nodded. "Yeah. I know." Then silence filled the room, but Blaine broke it. "Okay, I'll start. That's only fair." Kurt looked down. "You know, I never stopped loving you." He took a deep breath and continued: "You had started this amazing life in New York, and I was so happy for you, but I felt like nothing. I felt like such a small part in your life, like you were moving on without me. I felt like….. like I wasn't good enough for you anymore. Like you deserved better." Kurt looked up and into Blaine's teary eyes. "I started forgetting how it felt when we saw each other every day, how it felt being in love, hugging you, kissing you. And it made me so lonely and so sad, and I tried to find the comfort somewhere else. But it didn't feel right. That's why I stopped it. It felt wrong. All I could see in my head was you. It has always been you! And I can't believe I doubted that." Blaine lifted his shoulders, and felt his voice starting to quiver, so he paused there and looked down. And then he whispered: "And I am so sorry."

Kurt looked at Blaine and said: "I doubted us too, you know." Kurt said and Blaine looked up. "When I moved there. And when you had told me about what… happened. I thought that maybe we weren't meant to be. I kind of just wanted to give up, because it hurt so much. So I did." Blaine nodded slightly. "But it wasn't worth it, because you kept coming back to me. And I know that what you did hurt, but like I wrote to you, we forgot how we felt, even before you did what you did. But I guess time was what we needed to help us remember." Kurt reached across the table and took Blaine's hands in his and Blaine's eyes met Kurt's. "And don't you ever doubt that you aren't good enough for me ever again. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me!" Blaine smiled. "You're the best thing that ever happened to me too." "I love you so much, and that we couldn't let go, just shows me that, that's all that matters." Kurt said and Blaine nodded. "Yeah, you're right. I love you too."

Blaine clenched Kurt's hands. "And I really hated having to let you go! The only reason I agreed to do it, was because you asked me to." Blaine said and Kurt nodded. "Yeah. I know." "I never really believed in a happy ending without you in it." Blaine said with a smile. Kurt smiled back and said: "No. I am glad. But I never did either. The porch and the grandchildren?" Blaine laughed and nodded. "I could only imagine that with you sitting next to me." "I know. Let's make it happen then." Blaine said. "Gladly," Kurt smiled and Blaine leaned across the table for a kiss. They both took a deep breath of a kind of relief after everything was out in the open. "So, we're good?" Blaine asked. "Never been better," Kurt answered. "Good." They sat at the table for a long time, talking and sharing fun stories from their time apart. Blaine telling Kurt all about the new kids in New Directions and his friendship with Sam and Tina, and Kurt letting Blaine in on all the secrets. They talked, they listened, they laughed, they were happy and finally at peace.
