As soon as he left, Shane came over.
"Hey," he said, worried at what he had just seen, "what was that about? Is Dwight ok?"
"Ya, don't worry." Blaine nodded, " he got locked out of his room and has been freezing out here. Ethan is taking up into Han's dorm to get warmed up."
He didn't want to go into detail and freak Shane out with the possibility of Dwight having hypothermia or frostbite.
"Oh, ok." Shane nodded, "That's good. Ethan and Hans should be able to take care of him." He turned to look at Reed. He smiled softly. "I see Dwight's not the only one freezing their tail off. Reed, baby, I TOLD you to wear your green coat. You didn't listen, said you'd be perfectly fine. I warned you that you'd regret it, and now..."
"ALRIGHT SHANE!" Reed exclaimed indignantly, " you were right, ok? You may commence with the happy, overly energetic 'I told you so' dancing!"
"Now, what fun would that be?" Shane smiled softly, "No, I refuse to laugh at your discomfort, for that would most certainly make me the worst boyfriend in Ohio. I am simply glad you accept that I do, in fact, have my moments of correctness. Now, I will do my duty as your loving, doting, completely awesome, perfect boyfriend and remedy your issue." With that, he slipped off his own outer jacket and wrapped it around Reed's small body. " There we go. I was starting to overheat from all this exercise anyway, so this will kill two birds with one stone."
He helped Reed slip his arms into the oversized coat, then zipped it up to the boys chin.
Reed sighed contently. The jacket was warm and toasty and felt good against his chilled body. Not only that, but it held a scent that was very distinctly...Shane. Maybe if Dwight had someone to do this for him, he wouldn't have gotten so bad. God only knew that, if it weren't for Shane's coat, he'd be the next one to catch frost nip.
Shane laughed slightly at the adorable face Reed was making. "Better?" He asked with a chuckle.
"Mmmm, ya, very much so. Thank you." Reed giggled.
"Hey, I'm just doing what any good boyfriend would do for his lover. It's no problem." Shane smiled. He reached down and gently placed a hand on Reed's boot. " How's your ankle feeling?"
"It doesn't hurt as much as before, but it's still really sore." Reed winced, "It's ok, though. I'm perfectly happy to stay right here and watch you do moves out on the ice that would likely get me killed."
"Alright, babe, if you say so." Shane nodded, getting up, "Just tell me when you wanna go in, ok?"
Reed nodded and Shane skated back out onto the pond.
Kurt and Blaine had watch all of this happen. It was cute to watch the two younger boys together. Blaine couldn't help but feel pride in what a gentleman his brother had grown into. He was alway insanely energetic and wild in everything he did, but even with this he somehow found a way to be so sweet and careful with Reed. Blaine could almost physically see his brother's movements slow and soften around the young artist. It was truly amazing to see.
