A/N- Hey :) This is my first author's note, so I just wanted to say thankyou so so so much for the positive reviews. This is my first fic so it's really great to get positive comments! I love you all! Also, I'm really sorry. I've re-read the other chapters and there's spelling and grammar errors. I'll get round to editting them sooner or later.
I'm so glad everyone likes that Blaine's parents are nice. I've read so many fics where Blaine is not accepted by them so I decided to give him a break. I have no idea where the story will end up, so let's just see how it goes...
"Blaine? Are you crazy?" asked David "The Warblers haven't performed in an informal setting since 1927. And you expect us to not only do just that, but to go to our rivals' schooland sing to one of their singers?"
"I know, I know. But can't we make an exception, this once, please?" Blaine begged. He was stood in front of the whole of the Warblers, receiving many glares from some of the other guys, except for Nick and Jeff, who were grinning at each other. They knew Blaine the best out of everyone. They knew that Blaine was stubborn, and wouldn't back down until he got want he wanted. Even though they didn't know exactly what was going on, they could guess: Blaine had met someone and wanted the Warblers to serenade this someone. Nick decided to stand up and try to get some of the others on Blaine's side.
"Guys." Nick shouted, and everyone else who was yelling stopped and looked at him. "I know that you think what Blaine's proposing is stupid, but when has anything Blaine suggested ended up in disaster?" Blaine looked directly at Nick and mouthed 'thank you' at him. Some of the other Warblers coughed and looked down awkwardly, because Nick was right. Most things Blaine had suggested for them to do had helped them become a better team and win competitions. David got everyone's attention by whistling. Loudly.
"Alright alright. Nick's right." Some of the other Warblers started to protest, but David shot them a look that said you-will-wait-until-I'm-finished. "If anything, this may give us a boost at reigonals. If we show McKinley what we can do, it might shake them up a bit". Everyone was suddenly excited and the room was full of chatter. Blaine smiled to himself. This was going to get him Kurt for sure, if the other night hadn't.
For the next week, the Warblers rehearsed Blaine's chosen number over and over again; Blaine wanted it to be perfect.
When Friday came, Blaine was officially nervous. If it wasn't for the fact Dalton got Friday afternoon's off, he wouldn't even be doing this. Everything was spinning around in his head. What if he didn't like the performance What if he didn't like the song? What if he didn't like Blaine? He was in his own little world of worry before Jeff came over to him and waved a hand in front of his face.
"Yo, Blaine. You ready to go?"
"Um.. yes."
"Don't be nervous. If this guy doesn't like this, he's not worth it." Jeff put his arm around Blaine's shoulders and guided him towards the bus, where everyone was already sat down and practicing their harmonizing.
"Thanks Jeff. You're the best, man"
"I know, Blaine. No need to tell me something I already know" Blaine lightly punched his arm. Jeff really was the best though. He couldn't ask for a better friend.
Blaine felt sick as the bus arrived at McKinley. Everyone else was pumped and were warming up their vocals as they bounded off the bus and into the school parking lot. It was empty, which Blaine expected; Mckinley didn't finish until 3:45 and there was still a few minutes before the bell. The Warblers got into position and Blaine closed his eyes, taking deep breaths. He couldn't mess this up. He kept his eyes closed until he heard the bell. He opened them and started scanning all the students that were making there way out of the school. Quite a few people were walking past them and giving them dodgy looks, but Blaine ignored them. His heart almost leapt out of his mouth when he saw Kurt. He looked stunning, as usual. He was with a few girls and was talking away until one of the girls, who was wearing a sweater with a reindeer on it, nudged Kurt and then glared at the Warblers. Kurt's head shot up and his gazed wondered around until it met Blaine's. Kurt near enough took down half of the school as he ran over to Blaine.
"Blaine, what are you do-" Kurt said breathlessly.
Blaine turned around and nodded to the rest of the Warblers, who began vocalising. He took a deep breath before starting to sing.
Oh yeah, I'll tell you something
I think you'll understand
When I say that something
I want to hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
Blaine walked over to Kurt and held his hands tightly, tears forming in his eyes. He stared into the beautiful, blue eyes of the boy in front of him as he sang the rest of the song.
Oh, please, say to me
You'll let me be your man
and please, say to me
You'll let me hold your hand
Now let me hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
And when I touch you I feel happy, inside
It's such a feeling
That my love
I can't hide
I can't hide
I can't hide
Yeah you, got that something
I think you'll understand
When I say that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
Blaine closed his eyes as he sang the last line, and when he opened them, he saw that Kurt was crying. He pulled him into a tight hug and stroked his hair. The small group of people that had gathered around them clapped and cheered and began high-fiving the Warblers as they walked away. Blaine felt something trickle down his face, and only then did he realise that he was crying too. Kurt pulled but and brushed the tear away with his thumb, before pullung out a handkerchief and wiping his own eyes.
"T-Thankyou, Blaine." Kurt sniffed. "That was the most amazing and romantic thing that anyone's ever done for me."
"It was my pleasure, Kurt. Anytime" Blaine laughed, taking hold of Kurt's hands. They stared into each others eyes until Jeff and Nick ran up to him and hugged him, lifting him up. Blaine struggled a bit. "Guys. Put me down, now." When they did, Blaine dragged them over to Kurt. "Kurt, these are Jeff and Nick, my best friends. Guys, this is Kurt"
"Hey, nice to meet you" Kurt smiled, reaching out to shake their hands, but instead Jeff and Nick hugged him.
"Nice to meet you too Kurt" said Jeff, beaming at him.
"Yeah, nice to meet you. So you're the reason that Blaine here keeps dancing and humming to himself around Dalton" Nick teased. Blaine turned bright red and punched him with a bit more force than necessary. Luckily Kurt just laughed along, giving Blaine an adorable look.
"So Blaine. The bus is leaving in like... now. We gotta get going" Nick announced, starting to pull on Blaine's blazer. Blaine looked at Kurt with huge puppy eyes; he didn't want to leave.
"Actually.." Kurt called. "Is it alright if I steal Blaine for the night?" Kurt saw Blaine's eyes automatically brighten when Kurt said that. Nick and Jeff let go of Blaine and looked at Kurt.
"Hmmmm. What do you think, Jeff?" Nick fake mused, tapping his finger on his lips.
"I don't know..." Jeff paused for an annoying amount of time before grinning. "Of course you can. See you later Blaine" and they walked off to the bus, not before Blaine heard Nick say something like 'that's if he can walk'. Blaine glared at him and hoped that Kurt didn't hear him, because he wasn't ready for that yet. He was happy with the way him and Kurt were now. He didn't want to rush into anything, especially after what happened..
