Blaine skate towards Kurt, who was wearing a smile that rivaled Julian's famous Cheshire grin.
Blaine smiled, extremely embarrassed, at his boyfriend. "Be honest," he muttered for only them to hear, " how bad did that look?"
Kurt giggled and took Blaine's hand. "Not to bad, just slightly amusing." He grinned, "I've seen a lot worse!"
" Really?" Blaine said, raising his eyebrows, "Where? How?"
"Ugh, two words baby: Finn Hudson." Kurt laughed, "When you see that boy attempt to dance, dear gaga, it's a train wreck on two left feet!"
Blaine laughed at the double cliché. "Wow, that bad, huh?"
"Yup. And don't even get me started on my dad and his..."
Kurt was interrupted by a well shot snowball hitting him in the shoulder. Both the boys turned to see the Tweedle twins peaking innocently at them from the bushes. Kurt rolled his eyes and Blaine shook his head, though both wore a slight grin. No snow day was complete without Ethan and Evan making mischief.
The twin both grinned and walk towards them.
"Oh Alice! We got you good!" Ethan snickered
"One of our best snowballs to date, don't you think?" Evan said proudly.
" Yes," Kurt nodded, giving into the smile edging on his mouth, " very expertly craft! And most impressive that you remembered my rules about where to aim them!"
"Well, of course we did!" Evan smiled sweetly, "Don't get it in your hair, because it take you a heck of a time to get it the way you like it..."
"Don't throw them if you're wearing designer clothing," Ethan added, " because that stuff is NOT cheap to clean or replace!"
"No face shots," Evan said, his smile dimming slightly, "because of your sensitive skin...and the fact that it reminds you of getting slushied at you old school." He winced at the idea of anyone doing such a thing to their Alice.
"And absolutely NOTHING is to be thrown at your lower back!" Ethan said, a dead serious expression on his face, "That one we figured out for ourselves after the last time we did that. Dang! That panic attack you had was some scary stuff! I know you said it's fine, since we didn't know, but I for one feel like a rat turd for doing that to you!"
"Same here!" Evan nodded," the jokes only funny when both sides can laugh at it at some point. If it's not fun for you, Kurt, it's not fun for us!"
Kurt nodded. "Thanks guys. That means a lot coming from you two."
The twins smiles return in an instant. "Anytime Alice!" they said in unison. They both strapped on skates and made their way onto the ice.
"Now," Ethan said, "Alice and Rabbit, would either of you care to join us in going over to check on our dear injured door mouse over there?"
Blaine and Kurt glanced over at Reed. He sat alone on his bench, transfixed in watching Shane skate gracefully around the pond.
As they watched, they saw Dwight skating towards him from the other side of the lake. He flopped down next Reed. Reed seemed pleased at the company, which suggested that the boy would enjoy having them go over there.
The boys nodded and skated behind the twins towards their friends.
