So… Glee did Chicago! I unfortunately wasn't impressed. Don't get me wrong, they were great, I just wished they hadn't cut so much. Oh well.
Previously…
"Kurt, you're lucky I love you."
"Aw, Wes," Kurt teased, "I knew you loved me."
Wes just hummed in response.
A boy with styled brown hair and green eyes stood by the door watching the scene. A smirk made its way across his lips as his eyes zoned in on a short boy with dark gelled back hair and hazel eyes. He couldn't help but think how great he would be, a blushing schoolboy and a virgin no doubt. This should be fun.
He went to turn but movement caught his eye. A complication. Another boy with pale skin in a Dalton uniform wrapped his arms around his new conquest and kissed him. So he had a boyfriend? It's all right, he thought to himself. I've always loved a challenge.
Blaine's body was humming with excitement. The girls had just finished a spectacular rendition of "Mamma, I'm A Big Girl Now" from Hairspray. It was really good, but Blaine knew that the boys' song was just as good and they had been practicing all week. They were singing, "Luck Be a Lady" from Guys and Dolls. They had split up Sky's parts and Mike had choreographed the song perfectly. It would be a close call by Mr. Shu, he was sure of it.
He felt a buzz from his pocket and quickly pulled out his phone.
Stop worrying! U'll do gr8 - K xx
Blaine smiled at his boyfriend's text. He was just too perfect.
Cameron looked up from his US History textbook to see a boy he didn't recognize take the seat directly across from him. He looked around confused. Why was he-
"I'm Sebastian Smythe. I just transferred here."
"Cameron," he answered cautiously.
"Well, Cameron, the word around here is that you have a crush on one Kurt Hummel."
Cameron blushed but his face stayed otherwise neutral.
"It doesn't even matter. He won't give me the time of day. But I wouldn't try anything on him if I were you. He has a boyfriend." Cameron said the last word with almost disgust.
"Oh no, I'm not after Gayface. I want his boyfriend."
Cameron frowned at Sebastian's comment.
"Blaine?"
Sebastian nodded.
"What are you going to do?"
"Well, I figured that I would split them up."
"Why are you telling me?"
"I thought you would want to help. If we could make Blaine jealous enough to break up with Kurt, I'm sure Kurt would be heartbroken and run right into the arms of another to be consoled. Why couldn't those arms be yours? But I guess I was wrong…" Sebastian trailed off as he went to leave.
"Wait!"
Sebastian smirked and turned around.
"What do you want me to do?"
Too easy, Sebastian thought. Just too easy.
"Attention, Warblers," Wes announced banging his gavel.
The room settled down, all of the boys taking their seats. Kurt looked up at the council's table questioningly.
"Today we will be listening to an audition from a new transfer student from Paris. So without further ado, here is Sebastian Smythe."
A carefully sculpted eyebrow rose in apprehension. Kurt had known that the Warblers did not give auditions mid year except in the case of special circumstances like himself.
The thick oak doors opened.
We're both looking for something
We've been afraid to find
It's easier to be broken
It's easier to hide
Kurt was presently surprised by the boy's version of the song. He sang a bit higher than the original but he made it work. Kurt also noted that although he started singing by himself, quite a few of the Warblers began to add various harmonies and adlibbed background notes.
Looking at you, holding my breath,
For once in my life, I'm scared to death,
I'm taking a chance, letting you inside.
Sebastian quickly looked over to Cameron who nodded once inconspicuously. Sebastian smirked and began to make his way over to Kurt.
Feeling alive all over again,
As deep as the sky, under my skin
Like being in love, she says
For the first time
Maybe I'm wrong,
But I'm feeling right where I belong
With you tonight
Like being in love
To feel for the first time
Kurt's eyes widened as the new boy began to… strut towards him. He sent a frightened look towards Wes and David but they were watching the boy. The boy grabbed Kurt's arm, which he promptly tried to pull away, but Sebastian was too strong and pulled him into a dance.
The world that I see inside you
Waiting to come to life
Waking me up to dreaming
Reality in your eyes
Sebastian noticed that other Warblers had begun to dance, not together, but in freestyle to the music. He smiled and began to subtly lead Kurt towards the bookcase where he knew Cameron would be waiting.
Looking at you,
Holding my breath,
For once in my life
I'm scared to death,
I'm taking a chance,
Letting you inside.
Kurt tried to get Sebastian to let go of him but he just could not shake the other's hands from his wrists. Then on a particularly strong tug, Sebastian let go of him and he went flying back. Kurt closed his eyes waiting to hit the floor, but it never came. Strong arms were wrapped around his waist, and when he opened his eyes he found himself staring into chocolaty brown ones.
I'm feeling alive all over again
As deep as the sky that's under my skin
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
"Kurt are you okay?"
Kurt noticed that Cameron's eyes were full of what looked to be genuine concern.
Maybe I'm wrong, I'm feeling right
Where I belong with you tonight
Like being in love to feel for the first time
"Yeah. The new kid is an asshole," Kurt replied rubbing his wrists. "Um, Cameron, I'm good you can let go of me now."
"Right sorry," Cameron stuttered.
Kurt thought it was kind of adorable. But then he remembered that it was Cameron, and he quickly erased the thought.
We're crashing
Into the unknown
We're lost in this
But it feels like home
"Thanks, I guess. Um I probably would have fallen-"
"It's fine. I'll always catch you. If you'll let me."
Kurt bit his lip.
I'm feeling alive all over again
As deep as the sky that's under my skin
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
Maybe I'm wrong, I'm feeling right
Where I belong with you tonight
Like being in love to feel for the first time
"Look, Cameron…"
"It's okay Kurt. I know."
And with that, Cameron left the Warblers Hall.
Like being in love to feel for the first time
Sebastian looked around the Warblers Hall. When he was sure he was alone he made his way over to the bookcase where he took out the video camera that was lodged between two books. He smirked when he played back the recording to see a perfect clip of Kurt falling into Cameron's arms and oh the angle was perfect. Just showing enough to see that they were talking but only clearly showing Cameron's smitten face and not Kurt's no doubt disgruntled expression. A bit of editing and then straight to lover boy. Sebastian smiled, just too easy.
Blaine laughed with the guys as the had pizza at Finn's house to celebrate their tie with the New Directions girls. Blaine had rolled his eyes when Mr. Shu had decided that he couldn't pick. But he decided this outcome was pretty good. As puck was in the middle of a rather crude joke, Blaine felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.
He pulled out the phone and flipped it open.
1 New Video Message from Unknown.
Blaine's eyebrows scrunched in confusion.
Dun dun dun!
