A/N- Here's chapter 7 :) there's angst so I'm sorry. I know I'm not a great writer, but I hope I'm not a total fail. If I am, let me know ;)

The next few weeks went by and Kurt and Blaine had been on a handful of dates, each ending in the same way. One would drop the other off and they would kiss each other at the door and that would be it. Even though they were madly in love, Kurt still had the voice in the back of his head, telling him that he needed to find out what Blaine was hiding. And that voice was telling him that the relationship was dead if Blaine couldn't even open up.

Kurt sighed when he walked up to his bedroom after another date. He wanted to take the relationship further. Not so much as to have sex, they'd only been dating just over a month, but just further than the point they were at now. Everytime he had opened his mouth to ask Blaine about it, he froze. How do you even ask that? Kurt knew that he had to do it eventually, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. After seeing how Blaine literally broke down when they hadn't even talked about it, it was turning him against the idea. At the end of the day, he loved Blaine, and to see him that upset killed Kurt.

Burt and Carole had noticed that Kurt wasn't as happy coming home after his dates than he should be, seeing as him and Blaine were in love, and they finally decided to call him out. Carole tapped on the door, Burt following closely behind.

"Come in" Kurt called, and his dad and Carole shuffled into the room, Carole sitting on the edge of his bed, while Burt stood awkwardly.

"Kurt, we need to talk" Carole said, putting a hand on Kurt's leg.

"Why? Is everything alright?" Kurt asked, sitting up and crossing his legs, facing them.

"That's exactly what we were going to ask you, Kurt. Ever since you first brought Blaine here, you haven't seemed yourself. You've been moody, unsociable. Is anything going on?" Carole enquired. Kurt sighed, he should have guessed that this would happen eventually. He didn't know what he could say to them. He couldn't tell him that Blaine wouldn't do anything more than kiss, because that would not go down well. Could he say that Blaine was hiding something? 'No, I can't', thought Kurt. If he told his dad and Carole that he was hiding something, they'd think it was up to them to get the secret out of Blaine. Burt took a step towards Kurt, distracting him from his thoughts.

"Is he trying to pressure you? Because I had that talk with him and if he thinks that he can ignore that, then I will personally kick his ass" Burt whispered, with no hint of joking in his expression. Kurt gulped and tried to hold back a laugh. His dad thought Blaine was pressuring him. He decided that if he sat in silence for too long, his dad would assume that it was the case and would go and find Blaine to 'kick his ass'.

"No dad. Nothing's wrong. Blaine's not pressuring me. I don't know what it is. I think it's just I love him so much that I miss him whenever he's not with me" Kurt lied. Of course, it was true. He did miss Blaine, but that wasn't the reason he was being so distant. Luckily, Kurt's acting abilities were good enough that Burt and Carole smiled at him and nodded before walking out.

When Kurt was alone, he tried to fall asleep, but sleep wouldn't find him. Before Carole had brought it up, he hadn't even realised that he was acting differently. He was so concerned about Blaine that he'd been ignoring his family. Kurt couldn't even remember the last time he'd spoken to Finn properly. He tossed and turned before giving up and reaching for his phone. If he didn't find out soon what Blaine was hiding, then something bad was going to happen. He shakily tapped out a message.

To Blaine 23:47

Blaine, I know you don't want to tell me about what happened, but I hope that you can trust me enough to tell me soon. -K x

To Kurt 23:50

I want to tell you, I really do. It's just really hard for me to talk about. -B x

To Blaine 23:51

I understand that. But how can our relationship grow if you don't tell me? -K x

Kurt instantly regretted sending that text. It didn't sound as compassionate as it did in his head. He'd nearly sent an apology text when Blaine replied. Kurt's breath hitched in his throat.

To Kurt 23:52

Don't try to turn this on me. I was happy with how we are, but if you're only in this for getting down and dirty, then there's no point. I need someone who cares about me, not someone that just wants to get in my pants. If all you care about is sex, we're done.

Kurt felt the tears fall down his face. Was Blaine breaking up with him?

To Blaine 23:55

No I didn't mean it like that, I swear. I don't care about sex. I care about you. I just want to know everything so that I can understand and help you. I love you so much, Blaine. -K xxx

Blaine didn't reply. Kurt waited. 5 minutes. 10 minutes. An hour. He buried his head into his pillow so that nobody could hear him cry. He hadn't cried this much in a long time. Kurt tried to control himself and stop sobbing, but he couldn't. Everytime he's nearly stopped, he thought of Blaine again and started off again. He was sure that he was loud enough that at least Finn, who was in the next room, could hear him, but nobody came in. Even when the sun rose and Kurt was still lying down, eyes red raw, nobody disturbed him. At about 7:30, sleep finally took Kurt over. Usually, Kurt was a calm sleeper, and never had nightmares, but this time, he was twitching and murmuring in his sleep. Kurt nearly screamed and sat bolt upright, cold sweat forming on his forehead. His nightmare had of course been about Blaine. He'd dreamt of being tied up and being forced to watch Blaine being tortured. It seemed so real that it had scared Kurt to death. He fell back down onto the bed, closed his eyes and rolled over to face the side of the room that didn't have sunlight streaming in through a window. He blinked his eyes open a few times as they were still blurry from sleep, and he came face-to-face with someone who shouldn't be there.
