Kurt stopped. He stopped breathing, he stopped blinking, he stopped moving and he was pretty sure his heart stopped beating.
"You what?" he asked, and was sure it sounded much harsher than he meant it to sound. Now Blaine was blushing
"I love you. I've loved you for a while…I just-" Kurt continued to stare at him "everything that was going on…it just didn't seem like an…appropriate time." Kurt leaned against the sink
"You're telling me. That through this whole break up with Danny, when my heart had been ripped in two, you've been in love with me. And didn't think the timing was appropriate?" Blaine leaned away from Kurt, who looked ready to yell at him.
"Well yeah, you were vulnerable and I didn't think that would be a good time, I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if you never wanted to…especially with me." Kurt shook his head as Blaine rambled on. He finally looked up
"Shut up." Kurt said firmly and swiftly leaned in, not giving Blaine any time to move away or stop him. Their lips pressed together and it was everything Blaine had hoped for and then some. Kurt's lips were soft and smooth and Blaine ignored the stinging in his cut and reached up to cup Kurt's face in his hands. After a moment, they broke apart.
"You have no idea," Blain said, his voice strangely rough "how long I've waited for that." And Kurt didn't even care when Blaine's fingers tangled in his hair, undoubtedly messing it up.
Kurt stared at Blaine from where they were sitting on the bed, just looking into his eyes and absently playing with a loose curl that had somehow escaped Blaine's force field of hair gel.
"Why did this take so long?" Kurt asked
"Because you're constantly emotionally unstable" Blaine smirked and Kurt smacked his arm playfully
"You're all I needed." Kurt said "I just didn't realize it." Blaine smiled and leaned in to give Kurt a quick kiss on the tip of his nose.
"Just be prepared," he said
"What for?" Kurt asked, Blaine wrapped his arms around the boy
"Now that I have you, I'm never letting go." Kurt giggled and allowed Blaine to snuggle into his side.
There was a knock at the door, and Blaine didn't bother to disentangle himself from Kurt as Wes shouted from the other side of the door.
"Are you both fully clothed?" Blaine snickered and sighed
"Yes, Wes. We're fully clothed."
"Okay…I'm coming in now!" he shouted and pushed the door open. He took one look at them and whooped.
"David, Jeff, Nick!" he called and the three boys came racing into the room. There were shouts of
"Yes!", "Finally" and "I thought this day would never come!" Blaine and Kurt simply rolled their eyes and continued in their cuddling.
"Dudes, I congratulate you, and will now leave you to your…sexual advances."
"Theres nothing sexual about cuddling!" Blaine called as the boys left the room.
oOo
The boys eventually had to go get dinner, and Kurt took that time as an opportunity to call Mercedes.
"Hey, boo, you okay?" she asked, and Kurt smiled so widely into the receiver he thought his face would split in half.
"I'm more than okay, I'm wonderful, fantastic, amazing-" Mercedes stopped him
"You and Blaine are totally together!" she squealed, and Kurt squealed right back
"Yes!" he giggled "oh my God! He told me he loved me and then I kissed him!" Kurt sighed "It's so…different. I thought kissing Danny was nice, but kissing Blaine is like…woah. There were more than fireworks, Mercedes. There were like, freaking explosions." Mercedes giggled
"Okay, boo. You and me need to hang out soon, I need to get all the deets in person."
"Will do." Kurt promised and hung up.
oOo
"Way to be upfront about it," Wes snickered as Blaine told him what had happened
"Shut up, I didn't know what else to say!"
"Whatever works, man." Wes smiled, Blaine could tell that he was genuinely happy for them. Be it because Blaine had finally found someone perfect for him…or he wouldn't have to listen to Blaine talk about Kurt nonstop anymore. They finished their dinner and Kurt and Blaine headed straight back up to Blaine's room.
"What do you wanna do?" Blaine asked as Kurt flopped down on the bed
"Watch a movie?" Kurt suggested
"Oh yeah! I've got all the Disney classics downloaded onto my laptop!" Kurt smiled at how completely excited Blaine looked. "Which one do you want?" Kurt thought for a second
"How about Beauty and the Beast?" Blaine smiled
"I love that one." He took out his laptop and opened it up. He went into a folder called "Disney" and clicked on Beauty and the Beast. He full screened it and laid back against the headboard with Kurt.
"Who would you be in this?" Blaine whispered
"Beauty, obviously" Kurt smiled, Blaine laughed
"Then that would make me the beast" he leaned up and nibbled Kurt's earlobe. Kurt giggled and pushed him away
"Well, you are kinda hairy" he said, patting Blaine's chest.
They watched the rest of the movie in comfortable silence, Kurt had slumped down to lean his head on Blaine's shoulder, and Blaine had carefully put an arm around his shoulders. Blaine closed his laptop and looked down at Kurt, who had fallen asleep. He set his laptop on the night table and leaned down to kiss Kurt on the cheek. Kurt's eyes fluttered open
"Well, hey there sleeping beauty" Blaine smirked
"Can I sleep here?" Kurt asked, sliding down to rest his head on one of the pillows
"Of course." Blaine replied, laying down next to him. Kurt looked at Blaine sleepily
"I love you." Blaine said, Kurt nodded
"I can't say it back."
"I know," Blaine sighed "and you don't have to." Kurt smiled and snuggled into Blaine's chest.
"So…I should probably tell my parents I broke up with Danny."
(AUTHORS NOTE: So…yeah. Kurt didn't tell his family he broke up with Danny. BIG. MISTAKE. Anyway, hope you'll keep on reading! Thanks for all your lovely reviews, every single one makes my day *heart*)
