Chapter 7: Trouble in Paradise?
The next day Kurt was in the hallway when he received a text. He let out a relieved sigh when he saw that it wasn't from their mystery person.
'Urgent Glee meeting NOW!'
Sam
Kurt rolled his eyes and walked to the choir room. Once he walked in he noticed it was empty. When he turned around to leave he saw Blaine by the door.
"Great now you have people doing your dirty work for you?" Kurt snapped.
"Look, I really want to move on from this okay? I miss my friend!" Blaine said. Kurt just looked away.
"I can't do this…" Kurt said.
"Yes you can. Kurt whether or not we're lovers, we were friends first. And I would really like that back. Please?" Blaine begged. Kurt looked at him.
"Before I make my decision, there's something I'd like to say." Kurt said as he walked over to the piano. Blaine followed his every move.
"I'm listening." He said.
"Now I want you to correct me if I'm wrong. Now I remember that we had once said that we'd never lose each other. So before I left for New York, we made love that night. And said that nothing could ever come between us."
"So I get to New York, we talk constantly. I have a great time up there and I think that everything's alright between us. But I was wrong right! I get home to find out that you've cheated on me. I swear to myself that I'd get over you, but I never do. I still wear your fucking promise ring around my neck." Kurt said as he showed Blaine the necklace.
"The fact that you broke heart is still fresh Blaine. You tell me that it was nothing, that it was a hookup. You, you lying, gutless, looks like a hobbit, God you selfish, can't even reach the top shelf of anything, wears too much hair gel! Oh I can't think of enough awful things to say about you! You bastard!"
Blaine just stared at Kurt. He knew that Kurt needed to vent, but damn that was a lot. He slowly walked over to Kurt and sat down at the piano. He knew he had screwed up big. And he wasn't sure how to fix it. He really wanted Kurt to be his friend again. Not talking to him really broke his heart.
"I deserved every word of that. And it's true, but I swear on my life, that I will never hurt you like that again. Kurt please, I can't stand not having you in my life." Kurt looked at him and sighed.
"This isn't something you can just apologize for! I was faithful to you every way I could be. My eyes were only on you, my heart was only yours. Hell I even talked about you to all the workers in New York. And what I'm trying to understand is how you could hurt me so badly?"
"I don't know. I've tried explaining it to you." Blaine said.
"Yeah, 'I was with someone, it didn't mean anything, it was just a hookup.' Yeah that explains a lot. And the fact that after you fucked Eli or did he fuck you, whatever, and you realized that I was the one. God you're pathetic. What did I ever see in you?" Blaine once again looked like he had just been slapped.
"If you really love someone, they should be the only one you're with. To me, saying 'sorry' is nothing more than an empty word. Actions speak louder than words." Kurt said as he looked away.
"I tried sending you gifts." Blaine said.
"Sending gifts doesn't really make it right, does it?" Kurt asked.
"Even when I have said 'I'm sorry' to you in text, on the phone, and in person. It still doesn't seem like enough and I still feel bad afterwards. But I don't know what else to say." Blaine said, his eyes shining with unshed tears. Yeah Kurt was still pissed. But maybe he could try to be civil with Blaine. After all he did miss his best friend.
"My mother always said, 'It takes a strong person to say sorry, and an even stronger person to forgive.' Now I consider myself a strong person. All this time, all I've done is see you for what you've done. Instead of seeing you for who you are. Forgiveness is just letting of the past." Kurt sighed and turned towards Blaine.
"Okay, if we're gonna be friends again, you have to be honest with me at all times. I don't want a friend to betray me. Deal?" Kurt asked. Blaine looked like a make-a-wish kid at Disneyland.
"Deal, I'll take anything. I just want to be a part of your life." Blaine said as he grabbed Kurt's hand. Kurt could help the blush he felt. The electric shock that went through their hands didn't go unnoticed.
"So did you practice the song?" Kurt asked as he let go of Blaine's hand sat next to him. Blaine smiled that smile that made Kurt weak at the knees. Thank God he was sitting down.
"Did you really just as me that? Of course I practiced the song. We need to be our best." Blaine said.
Blaine would never admit that he was sort of thrilled that Kurt was still wearing the ring. He actually smiled at that. And Kurt said he wasn't over him. Maybe it was just Kurt lashing out, but maybe there was still hope?
The entire time they were in the choir room they were being watched.
XOXOXOXO
Sebastian was in the weight room when Eli came barging in. It looked like he was pissed. Sebastian put the dumbbells down and walked over to him.
"Well someone looks pissed." Seb laughed.
"Oh you think this is funny huh, well it would seem that your boyfriend was getting awfully chummy with his ex." Eli said and showed Sebastian a picture of Blaine holding Kurt's hands. Sebastian had to admit, he was didn't too much like that. But he didn't want to jump to conclusions.
"So? They're holding hands, big deal."
"Are you insane? Kurt's moving in on my territory. And you could lose him. That would trash your reputation. Especially if the head cheerleader dumps the Lacrosse Captain." Eli said.
"Kurt wouldn't do that." Sebastian said.
"Oh really? I heard him say that he wasn't over Blaine and something about a ring." Eli said. Seb was conflicted. He didn't know what to do. He honestly didn't want to believe that something could be happening with Kurt and Blaine.
"I'll talk to him tonight." Sebastian said as he looked in the mirror.
"What the hell happened man? You were this total bad ass a few weeks ago. Now it's like the princess is changing you." Eli said.
"Don't call him that and I still am bad." Seb retorted.
"Oh really? Waiting on Kurt like a love sick puppy doesn't really help does it?"
"For your information, Kurt and I have our own lives. We have an open relationship." Sebastian said and then thought about it.
What kind of relationship did he and Kurt have? I mean, they loved each other right. They had said it multiple times. But then people started noticing Sebastian after he and Kurt became popular that he felt that an open relationship would be okay.
They could still be popular. Kurt didn't want to sleep with someone else and told Sebastian that he'd only been allowed to have oral sex with people and full sex with him. Which as of now, wasn't really happening as much.
"So that means Kurt could end up back with Blaine you moron!" Eli said.
"No, Kurt doesn't want to sleep with anyone else. He just said that I could get blowjobs from different guys." Sebastian said. Eli looked at him like he was crazy.
"So basically you guys aren't as in love as you seem to be. And you're just doing this for high statuses?" Eli asked.
"I guess so?" Sebastian answered.
"You two are so weird. But whatever; keep Kurt away from Blaine. I want him and you need Kurt. Wouldn't want it getting around that you let the cheerleader dump you for some theater nerd." Eli said as he left.
Sebastian didn't know what to think. He liked his reputation and being with Kurt. But he also liked the attention from other guys. And he did love Kurt right? A headache slowly started to creep up on Sebastian.
What the hell was going on?
XOXOXOXOXO
When it was time for glee club everyone gathered in the room. Kurt and Blaine watch as the others gave stunning performances. Everyone was breathtaking. When it was their turn Kurt took the floor.
I like the way you sound in the morning
We're on the phone and without a warning
I realize your laugh is the best sound
I have ever heard
Kurt remembered some of the phone calls they used to share. And started thinking about some of the newer ones they would have. He stared at Blaine as he sung the next line.
I like the way I can't keep my focus
I watch you talk, you didn't notice
I hear the words but all I can think is
We should be together
Every time you smile, I smile
And every time you shine, I'll shine for you
Whoa oh, I'm feeling you baby
Don't be afraid to
Jump then fall
Jump then fall into me
Be there, never gonna leave you
Say that you wanna be with me too
So I'm a stay through it all
So jump then fall
Blaine walked around Kurt as he sang his part. He smiled because he was so happy that they could start on the road to friendship.
I like the way your hair falls in your face
You got the keys to me
I love each freckle on your face, oh
I've never been so wrapped up, honey
I like the way you're everything I ever wanted
Sebastian silently fumed as Blaine sung to Kurt. That should be him singing to Kurt. The sad thing is, is that Sebastian wasn't the only one jealous of Blaine right then.
I had time to think it oh, over
And all I can say is come closer
Blaine gestured for Kurt to come closer to him as he sang.
Take a deep breath then jump then fall into me
Kurt turned around and fell back into Blaine. Blaine smiled and helped him back to his feet.
Cause Every time you smile, I smile
And every time you shine, I'll shine for you
Whoa oh, I'm feeling you baby
Don't be afraid to
Jump then fall
Jump then fall into me
Be there, never gonna leave you
Say that you wanna be with me too
So I'm a stay through it all
So jump then fall
They looked at their fellow glee club members and sang each part individually.
The bottom's gonna drop out from under our feet
I'll catch you, I'll catch you
And people say things that bring you to your knees
I'll catch you
The time is gonna come when you're so mad you could cry
But I'll hold you through the night until you smile
Blaine put his hands on Kurt's face to make him smile and Kurt undoubtedly blushed from the contact. Sebastian felt the heat begin to boil all the way from the tips of his toes to the tips of his ears. Blaine looked at Kurt and sang.
Whoa oh, I need you baby
Don't be afraid, please
Jump then fall
Jump then fall into me
Now it was both of their turns.
Be there, never gonna leave you
Say that you wanna be with me too
So I'm a stay through it all
So jump then fall
Jump then fall baby
Jump then fall into me, into me
Every time you smile, I smile
And every time you shine, I shine
And every time you're here
They finished the rest of the song in complete harmony.
Baby I'll show you, I'll show you
You can Jump then fall, jump then fall
Jump then fall into me, into me, yeah
When they were finished everyone but Sebastian stood up and cheered.
"Amazing guys. I actually felt something there. Great job." Mr. Shue said. Kurt and Blaine beamed at everyone's compliments. Blaine grabbed Kurt's hand and they both bowed. Sebastian was seconds away from ripping Blaine a new one when he felt his phone vibrate.
'Tick tock Flabby. Kurt's slowly starting to fade away. How long before he is completely gone?'
J.
Sebastian looked at Kurt and Blaine as they talked to each other. Something had to be done. But not just yet. He still wasn't gonna jump to conclusions. And with that he sent out a quick text.
'I'm not agreeing just yet. But what exactly would we be talking about, when you said restoring order?'
He hit send and waited for Eli's reply.
A/N: Okay so no Michael incident yet, but it's coming. Oh and if no one noticed, i added a slight reference to the movie Bird on a Wire. Goldie Hawn is amazing. I think she would be perfect for the role of either Kurt's mom or aunt. I did keep my word on the drama though. That was another one of my many takes on the cheating situation. Really hope they talk about everything in the Christmas ep next week. Even though it seems obvious that Blaine went all the way with Eli, I really want him to admit how far he went. Not a stupid flash back. C'mon fox and Glee writers, it's not that hard to say if he messed around or not. We fans need closure damn it. Otherwise it's gonna be hard to give some sort of sympathy to Blaine. Rant over. Read and Review. XOXO ShadowBeauty. P.S. Klaine on the ship war! And Blaine as a cheerleader? I almost died. Ooh the dirty thoughts. ; P
