Kurt clutched onto Blaine's hand. He took a deep breath and gently pushed open the door. He ushered in.
"Dad," Kurt announced "This is Blaine."
Burt Hummel sat up on the sofa, quickly switching off the television and attempting to straighten the sofa cushions.
"Kurt," sighed his Dad, "You could have warned me we were going to have visitors."
"Oh sorry," said Kurt, welcoming Blaine into the house.
Blaine walked in, looking around.
"Someone special?" whispered Burt to Kurt.
Kurt gave a subtle nod.
"Nice to meet you, sir," Blaine said, shaking his hand.
"Sir?" grinned Burt "I like this boy."
Kurt smiled at the approval of his Dad.
Carole wandered in with a cup of coffee in her hand.
"Ooh, who've we got here?" asked Carole.
"This is Blaine" Kurt blushed.
"Your boyfriend?" Carole piped up.
"Erm" Kurt said, biting his lip, unsure of the answer himself.
"Early days, early days" Blaine chipped in.
Kurt looked at Blaine, lovingly.
"Do you two want some dinner? Me and Carole made steak," Burt suggested.
"That's okay" Kurt said "Me and Blaine stopped at the salad bar on the way home."
The night drew on, and Blaine had spent all evening chatting and kissing with Kurt on the sofa. Finn hurried down the stairs.
Kurt and Blaine pulled away from kissing, suddenly.
"Oh, sorry guys," gushed Finn "I...I'll go back upstairs"
Finn began to make his way up.
"Finn?" Kurt smiled "This is Blaine."
"Nice to meet you."
Kurt and Blaine looked back at each other, then Blaine looked at his watch.
"Oh, it's getting late," Blaine sighed "Time flies when you're having fun."
"Hmm...got lost gazing in your eyes" Kurt blushed.
They waved each other off. And once the door was closed. Kurt pressed his hands together and thanked the Lord for an amazing day. Despite the fact he was unsure about whether God was real, he was thankful to whoever or whatever brought him and Blaine together.
The next day, over at William McKinley High, the whole of New Directions burst into 'Livin' La Vida Voca', the performance sounded beautiful, and Mr Schu stood at the sidelines, nodding his head to the beat. Everyone was with high spirits.
That's until Kurt and Blaine strode in, dressed in their Dalton Academy uniforms.
The song grounded to a halt as the class rushed over to greet their dearly missed friend.
"Why are YOU here?" Rachel belted.
"Woah, calm down," Mr Schu said "Kurt and Blaine are here to wish us luck at sectionals"
"Wish us luck? More like spying," Rachel groaned.
"Don't jump to conclusions" Blaine told her "We are here to wish you luck, just like Mr S said. To say 'No hard feelings', y'know, since we're competing against each other."
Rachel was still sceptic about them.
"Oh, I'm Blaine, by the way" Blaine explained.
The class looked over at Blaine and Kurt, who were holding hands.
"So, I'm guessing you guys are dating" Puck said.
"You guessed correctly" grinned Kurt, resting his head on Blaine's shoulder.
"Too bad if you had kids they could only be boys" Brittany said in a quiet monotone.
Everyone glared at Brittany.
"Oh, Brittany, I missed you and the things you come out with. I miss you all!" Kurt laughed, running in for a group hug.
Dave Karfofsky happened to be passing by and the sound of Kurt's voice drew him closer to the door to the glee club rehearsal room.
He peered in, and could feel his blood boil, as he watched Blaine kiss Kurt delicately on the cheek, in amongst the rest of New Directions.
As much as he was secretly overjoyed to see Kurt's face, he was not expecting to see Blaine there. His face reddened and his pupils widened in his green-with-envy eyes. He was jealous. Real jealous.
