It'd been a successful rehearsal at WMHS. Mr Schuester had offered to buy milkshakes for all of New Directions, plus Kurt and Blaine.

They all ordered and sat down at a table.

"So, tell us all about yourself Blaine," Mr Schuester began, to stop an awkward silence from brewing.

"Um, I don't know what to say, really" Blaine grinned, slurping down a sip of banana blitz.

"Well, you're totally hot. So if something happens between you and Kurt let me know. And I can fix you up with m..." began Santana.

Kurt gave Santana a 'oh-hell-no' look.

"Sorry, I'm only into guys" Blaine said, cutting in, apologetically, putting an arm around Kurt.

Kurt looked as if he could melt into his arms, he never felt so loved before. His smile was from ear to ear.

"I'm so happy for you," Mercedes said to Kurt, taking his hand.

"Thanks" Kurt grinned.

"I'm happy for you, too" Mr Schuester smiled.

Once everyone had departed the milkshake bar, Kurt and Blaine headed back to the boarding school and passed onto Finn a message saying to tell everyone back at home that he'll miss them now he's officially staying nights there.

Everything seemed so perky and joyful that day, but life isn't a bed of roses. The following day was nowhere near as nice.

Kurt and Blaine were in their dorm, having yet another make out session when suddenly Kurt's cell phone blasted out 'Poker face' by Lady Gaga, and he picked it up. Abruptly pulling away from Blaine.

It was Mercedes, who was sobbing uncontrollably down the phone.

"Mercedes? Are you okay? What's happened?" Kurt said, worriedly.

Mercedes tried to hold back the tears.

"Kurt, my Mom's in hospital and it don't look good" she explained.

"Oh god! How did she...? What happened?" Kurt said, shuffling away from Blaine to hear what Mercedes had to say.

"She is critically ill, she slipped into unconsciousness this morning for no explained reason," Mercedes cried.

"Don't worry, darling, she'll make it through, just like my Dad did" Kurt empathised "Look, I'll pray for you."

A half-smile sprung onto Mercedes face.

"I love how you can make me just a little bit happy in the worst of times" Mercedes whispered "That's something I miss about you."

"Should I come over?" Kurt asked.

"It's okay, if all goes to plan I won't need you to come join me" Mercedes said "I'm just so scared."

"I'm here for you, sweetie" Kurt told her. "Text me or give me a ring if you need me."

Kurt was telling the truth, but in a sense, he was seemingly being selfish. He just wanted to carry on spending time with Blaine.

Kurt said bye and hung up.

"What was that all about?" asked Blaine, shuffling back on over to Kurt.

"Mercedes' Mom is in hospital" sobbed Kurt, tearing up.

Blaine wiped the tears from Kurt's face.

"She'll be okay, baby" Blaine said, comforting him.

Kurt looked back at Blaine, the sympathy in his eyes was so sweet and endearing.

Kurt adored him. He knew he'd picked the right guy.

Kurt leaned in and kissed Blaine softly.

It made everything seem a million times better. Kurt was so consumed in the love he shared with Blaine, it almost made Kurt forget about Mercedes. He switched off his phone. And lay himself down beside Blaine as they cuddled up to watch a marathon of musicals on their dormitory television.
