As he is singing along he thinks back to that day. Blaine had said we needed to do something sexier after Sue had talked to us at the Lima Bean that day. He decided for us to do animal. Which was crazy.
Apparently I didn't do sexy very well. Haha. Man I was so awkward. Good thing I learned since then.
The second song comes on which is Misery and Kurt sings at the top of his lungs as he continues to head to the zoo. He arrives at the zoo and finds a parking place pretty close to the front gate. He is like three rows from it and this really excites him. He walks up to the ticket booth. "Is Lauren here?" Kurt asks the guy inside the ticket booth.
"I am going to assume that you are Kurt." The guy says to him.
"Yes, I am Kurt! Blaine said that I was supposed to meet a girl here named Lauren and she would know what to do next." He says to the guy.
"Well Lauren wasn't feeling good today and she went home early, but she told me what to do once you got here." The guy said to Kurt. "Oh, by the way my name is Chris."
"Well hi Chris. What are we supposed to do next?" Kurt asks him.
"She said that she was given specific instruction not to tell you. That she was to just lead you to the place. So I guess that is what I will do." Chris says to Kurt.
So they take off walking through the zoo. They stop once they get to the Llamas because it is Chris's favorite animal. Kurt is very amused by them as well. After a few minutes of looking at the Llamas they continue to the place. They arrive at the place. It is the bird house.
"Why are we at the birdhouse?" Kurt asks confused.
"I am not allowed to tell you those details. Just walk in and enjoy." Chris says to him as he turns around and heads back to the ticket booth.
Ugh! Blaine, whatever could this be? I am so confused about the bird house. I guess I am just really over thinking this one.
Kurt walks in to the bird house and begins to look around. He comes across a really unique bird and he can't stop looking at it. He starts to read about the bird and then realizes the name of the bird and he almost freaks out. The bird was named Pavarotti. He continues to read more about it. The warblers had named it this shortly after it was born and because they liked the bird so much they decided to name the one they had the same thing. This made Kurt tear up.
Really Blaine?! Now I understand why you brought me in here. You wanted me to see this bird. That is really cute. But it is also really sad. So way to go. I loved that bird a lot.
As Kurt is deep in thought he hears music start to play. Walking towards him is Luke. Luke smiles at him. Then Luke begins to sing. "Blackbird singing in the dead of night Take these broken wings and learn to fly All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise Blackbird singing in the dead of night Take these sunken eyes and learn to see All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free Blackbird fly, blackbird fly Into the light of the dark black night Blackbird fly, blackbird fly Into the light of the dark black night Blackbird singing in the dead of night Take these broken wings and learn to fly All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise You were only waiting for this moment to arisen You were only waiting for this moment to arise."
As Luke sings the songs Kurt gets tears in eyes and is doing his best not to break down and cry. Yet he can't help it. Tears start to stream down his face and they can't seem to stop. Luke finally finishes singing the song and smiles at Kurt.
"Luke! I am so happy to see you! I feel like it has been years." Kurt shouts as he wipes away the tears.
"It really does feel like it has been years." Luke says to him. "How have you been?"
"Me, I have been great. I mean I have no clue what Blaine is planning at the end of all of this, but I am enjoying the adventure so far. When I first got to the bird house I was confused, but after being in here a few minutes it finally hit me." Kurt explains to him.
"Blaine called me Sunday night and ask if I was going to be in town and I told him I would be. Then he asks me if I could do him a favor. I said anything for you. Then when he asked me to do this I jumped on it. I was really excited and I knew how important that song was to the both of you. So I knew I couldn't miss this opportunity." Luke explains to him.
"Well I am glad that you didn't pass up the opportunity. You sounded amazing on that song. "
"I think you sounded better. Blaine asked me to not keep you very long, so I guess I better get on my way. Before I go he told me to give you this note."
"Another note! Of course you would have one to give to me."
Kurt takes the note and tells Luke goodbye. He walks over to the bench that is by Pavarotti and sits down on it. He opens the note and start reading it.
My sweet Blackbird,
Hey! I bet you cried during that song. I knew how special that bird was to you. That moment that day when I was sitting on the arm of the couch and you began to sing was such a moment for me. I realized then that I was in love you. That I had been for some time. I just wasn't admitting it to myself yet. I finally was able to do it that day. You could totally tell by the way I was looking at you. Wes thought it would be a good idea to video that moment and put it on youtube. So I have watched it quite a few times. If you haven't seen it on there, you really should watch it. After that moment was another moment that was even more special to me. It was our first kiss. You tasted so good that day. I really couldn't get enough of you. Then our second kiss was almost better than the first. I mean I had to stand up in order to not fall over on you. Which was then awkward and we finally stopped kissing to get some air. Practicing Candles was really hard that day because I wanted to do was keep kissing you. You were such a great kisser. I was blown away by how great you were. I could go on and on about that day, but I guess I will stop for now. Just know that the feelings I had that day I still have them for you and they are even stronger. I know that seems crazy, but it is true. You are the love of my life Kurt! Now speaking of Candles, walk back out to your car and listen to the next song on the cd. I bet you can guess what it is. Haha. As you listen to this song head towards McKinley and when you get there go outside to the steps out back and enjoy what I have planned for you next!
Love always,
Your 'We should practice' partner
So Kurt heads back to his car and gets in it and turns the cd on. Track three begins to play and of course it is Candles. Kurt sings along at the top of his lungs as he heads to McKinley. He arrives at McKinley and parks his car. He walks inside and goes straight to the steps outside. He gets out there and sees a lot of people, but doesn't notice anyone special. It confuses him, so he decides to sit down on the steps and wait for something to happen. A few minutes go by and he hears his name.
"Kurt! Hey, Kurt! Turn around!" The voice shouts.
Kurt turns around and freaks out. "Oh my goodness! EEK!" Mercedes was standing at the top of the stairs.
She waves at Kurt and then tells Brad who is sitting behind the piano to hit it. She starts to sing. "I came across a fallen tree I felt the branches of it looking at me Is this the place we used to love? Is this the place that I've been dreaming of? Oh simple thing, where have you gone? I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin And if you have a minute, why don't we go Talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything So why don't we go somewhere only we know? Somewhere only we know"
As Mercedes sings the song Kurt is taken back to the day Blaine had sang the song to him and he can't help but smile. The smile won't leave his face. That was the day that he returned to McKinley and he told Blaine that he would never say goodbye to him. Which he has held true to this very day. Mercedes finishes the song and runs over to Kurt and grabs him and gives him the tightest hug he has ever received.
"Mercedes, you are going to have to stop or you will have squeezed me to death." Kurt strains to say.
A couple seconds later Mercedes lets go. "Kurt! I have missed you so much!" She says extremely excited.
"I have missed you so freakin much!" He tells her. "How have you been?"
"I have been great. Blaine called me Sunday night and asked if I was going to be in town this weekend and I told him no, but that I was coming in for a couple days. That I would be here Tuesday night and Wednesday night. That I was planning on leaving Thursday morning because I had a class on that evening. He asked me what my plans were for Tuesday night and I told him my plane wouldn't be here until 4pm and I had planned on surprising Kurt and showing up at his house to see him. He told me not to do that. That I could still surprise you, but in a musical way. I told him I was intrigued and to continue on. He told me what he had planned for you and I was excited and I told him I wouldn't miss it for the world. He really is the best boyfriend anyone could ever have. You are very lucky Kurt." She explains to him.
"I know I am. I can't believe you didn't tell me you were coming into town. I wish I would have known about it sooner. I am supposed to leave at 10 am tomorrow morning. I would have loved to have hung out with you tonight. I have really missed you."
"I have missed you as well. But I promise what Blaine has planned for the rest of your evening will be better than hanging out with silly old me."
"Nothing could be better than hanging out with you. You are my best friend."
"I know I am. I told Blaine the next time we are both in town at the same time that you are all mine. He giggled. I don't think he believed me, but I am completely serious. You are all mine. Tonight is about the plans Blaine has for you. Next time it is all me."
"I like that idea."
"Oh and before I forget, Blaine said to give you this." Mercedes hands Kurt another note.
"Thanks for not forgetting."
"Blaine would have killed me had I of forgot. But I am supposed to be meeting my mom to grab a bite to eat. So I will see you sometime later. Love you!"
"Love you too!" Kurt says as he gives Mercedes a huge hug. Then she heads towards her car and leaves.
Kurt walks over to the steps and sits down. He opens the letter and starts to read it.
My never saying goodbye buddy,
I love you so much! I bet you were really surprised to see Mercedes. I knew she was the perfect one to sing this song to you. I mean she is your best friend, other than me. Haha. But anyways this day was really special because you said you would never say goodbye to me. Which you have held true to this very day. The song talks about going somewhere only we know and I am so glad we have that place. I mean Rosemary's Bagels was are special place. We never told anyone else about it. Which made it all the better. My favorite time to go there was the day you had been back to McKinley for a few days and you had an icky day. Nothing really was going in your favor that day. Lunch sucked, you had a pop quiz, Rachel was extra annoying, Finn was extra clingy with her, Santana was ragging on everyone, and you left your homework in your car and couldn't find it later when you back outside to get it. Your day just wasn't adding up for you. You called me and ask if we go somewhere just me and you. So I took you to this little spot that no one else knew about. We had an amazing day and you felt a billion times better after that. I knew then that Rosemary's Bagels would always be our little spot in this big wide world. Maybe the next time you are in town we could go there. I would seriously love that. Now you need to head to the gym where another surprise will be awaiting you.
Love always,
The fixer of your bad days
Kurt gets up and heads towards to the gym. He is unsure of what is about to take place. He arrives in the gym and only the cheerleaders are in there. Umm…What do you have up your sleeve? Are the cheerleaders going to sing to me? That would be weird if it was only them. I really hope you have something else planned. You are just so full of surprises today. But I am loving every minute of this!
A couple minutes later the doors open to the gym and Unique walks in wearing a beautiful blue ball gown with a crown on top of her head and sparkly silver heals on. She looks stunning. She winks at Kurt as she walks to the middle of the gym. The cheerleaders gather around her and they begin to sing.
Oh my God, Blaine! I think I am going to cry!
Unique and the cheerleaders continue to sing. "Friday night and the lights are low Looking out for a place to go Where they play the right music, getting in the swing You come in to look for a king Anybody could be that guy Night is young and the music's high With a bit of rock music, everything is fine You're in the mood for a dance And when you get the chance You are the dancing queen Young and sweet, only seventeen Dancing queen, feel the beat From the tambourine, oh yeah You can dance, you can jive Having the time of your life Ooh see that girl, watch that scene Dig in the dancing queen"
Kurt doesn't realize that he has tears streaming down his face until Unique finishes singing the song and walks over to him. "Kurt, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I am okay. Why you ask?"
"You had tears streaming all down your face."
"I hadn't even noticed. But, yeah I am okay. I had been deemed prom queen that night and was so upset. Yet Blaine, who was scared to death to be there that night but did it for me anyways, walked up to me and asked me to dance. It was such a special moment. I had been so upset and then he walked up and asked me to dance and I was so happy that he put his feelings aside and did this special moment for me, for the two of us." Kurt explains with a huge smile on his face.
"Well that explains why Blaine asked me to wear the crown. I told him I would do it because I love wearing crowns and he said that you would explain it to me. That he was completely sure of it. Now that you have I totally get it. Aww! You guys had such a special night that evening. I am glad that I could be part of recreating that moment for you. You are a very special person, Kurt. You are lucky that you have someone as special as Blaine in your life. Don't ever take that for granted."
"Well thank you. That evening was very special for the both of us. I am glad he chose you to sing this song. You did an amazing job!"
"Thank you! Here is a note that he wrote you. He told me to give it to you and that you are to do exactly what it says." Unique tells him and then hands him the note.
Kurt opens the note as Unique walks out of the gym with the cheerleaders following behind.
My Dancing Queen,
I know this was a very hard and very special night for the both of us. I know that I needed to choose someone very unique to sing this song to you and then it hit me. Unique would be perfect. I am sure she was. She was very excited to sing this song to you! I knew that night that I couldn't leave you standing there all by yourself. I was terrified as to what was going to happen, but I knew I had to put my fears aside and make the night special for you. So that is what I did. I put all my feelings aside and asked you to dance. I fell even more in love you that night. You are the love of my life. I couldn't do anything without you. I am really excited for our future. Now I know that I am trying to have you go to a lot of different places, but I had to reuse one place. So head back out to the steps for some dancing.
Love always,
Your brave soul
Dancing? Who is going to be dancing? Why the same steps again? Oh Blaine Anderson you really know how to confuse me. Kurt heads back out the stairs. He is excited when he sees who is out there. Of course you would choose him to do something that requires dancing. I should have known. Oh Blaine! I love you more and more.
