"He said what?" Blaine choked down the phone
"He said he did it because he loves me," Kurt told him firmly.
"Wait. Let me get this straight. David Karofsky kissed you because he loves you? This might just be the most absurd thing I've ever heard!" Blaine commented. "What else did he say?"
"Erm, apparently I'm hot, sexy and cute, I have a hot ass and I'm amazing." Blaine cracked up laughing. "What?"
"Sorry, Kurt! You can't say this isn't hilarious!" said Blaine.
"Obviously someone doesn't agree then," Kurt snapped.
"C'mon Kurt, it's David Karofsky! You can't seriously think this isn't odd."
"It's odd that someone has feelings for me?"
"I didn't mean that..."
"Well y'know what, Blaine? I find it odd that someone who I'm supposed to hate complimented me more in one drunken phone call than you have in our entire relationship!" Kurt argued.
"Kurt, I-"
"Forget it, Blaine."
Kurt hung up angrily. He was right, Blaine rarely said nice things to him. In fact, it was hard to believe they were dating. If they didn't hold hands and kiss every so often, you'd think that they were just friends. Kurt regularly commented on Blaine's appearance and personality and told him how amazing he thought he was. Blaine's only compliments came when Kurt said something first.
Kurt wasn't thinking that Dave was better for him than Blaine, more like he was thinking over his relationship and why he'd got with Blaine in the first place. He liked Blaine. Blaine was good looking, talented, supportive, kind, the sort of boyfriend Kurt wanted. But Kurt had been a second option to Blaine.
If things had gone Blaine's way in the first place, he would be dating Jeremiah right now. But things hadn't gone to plan and Blaine was told no there and then. Only after that and after Blaine realised Kurt's crush, did he begin to get closer to Kurt in the way.
Kurt was beginning to rethink their relationship completely and was wondering what it was about Blaine that had made Kurt want him so badly in the first place.
His phone vibrated.
From Blaine: I'm sorry, you're right. I don't tell you how amazing you are enough. I love you 3
Blaine was telling Kurt exactly what he wanted to hear and Kurt, being the extremely forgiving person he was, immediately regretted thinking that about Blaine.
To Blaine: I over reacted. My fault, I'm sorry. I love you too 3
Okay so perhaps Kurt had over reacted. Blaine didn't think it was odd for a guy to have feelings for Kurt, he just found it odd that it was David. Probably because of the irony of the bullying.
But he realised what he said was true. David had expressed more feelings towards him in one phone conversation than Blaine had in the whole time they'd been dating, in the whole time they'd even known each other!
Kurt looked at his phone. He'd said that he loved Blaine, but he thought about it. Did he love Blaine? There was no doubt he was attracted to him, he thought he was amazing, talented, good looking. But did he love him?
The fact that he had to question himself about that answered his question.
Kurt had been lying. Not just to Blaine and anyone else who asked, but to himself. He'd convinced himself that he loved Blaine, because who else was there to love that would love him back?
David Karofsky had make him realise that it's possible for other people to love him and, if he had to admit it, it made him feel good, knowing that someone other than Blaine loved him. He'd previously been worried about losing Blaine, because he had come up with this idea that if Blaine wasn't there to love him then nobody else would.
He hadn't spoken to Dave since yesterday when he'd called back. He recognised that he should probably talk to him. Dave had had time to cool off and think it out.
Kurt scooped up his phone and found Dave's number, inadvertently pressing call.
It rang for a while, but he eventually picked up.
"Hello?" came Dave's voice.
"Hey, Dave!" Kurt said, cheerily.
"Hi, Kurt... Can I help?" Dave's confused voice said.
"Oh, yeah. I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry," Kurt blurted.
"Sorry?" Dave muttered.
"Yeah. I'm sorry. I could of handled yesterday better, I guess I spoke before I thought about it and I shouldn't have put you on the spot. I just want to let you know that I-I'm here for you," Kurt babbled.
"E-excuse me?" Dave stammered.
"I know we've had a bad history but I'm willing to put it all behind us if you are. I'm not sure how many people know... y'know, about you, but from what I gather it's not many, so if you ever need to talk or whatever, I'm here," Kurt stated firmly.
"Really?"
"Yes. Only if you want to obviously. I'm not going to force you into anything. I know it's difficult for you Dave, I'm assuming you're not as self accepting as people like me but it always helps for someone to be there. Even if you're not ready for more people to know."
Dave was silent for a minute and Kurt wondered if he'd gone. He was about to call his name when Dave began speaking.
"Thanks, Kurt. I really appreciate that. I'm definitely ready to put it behind us. I know you probably don't want to forgive me for all the shit I put you through, but I want you to know that I'm truly sorry," Dave said.
"That's fine, David. Just text or call or whatever whenever you need me," Kurt mumbled.
"Okay. Erm, Kurt... No, actually, it doesn't matter. I'll talk to you later."
"Oh, alright. Talk to you then."
"Bye, Kurt."
"Bye, David."
Kurt hung up, sighing and falling back onto his bed.
He never thought he'd be in this situation, but he could tell that David had changed since they'd kissed. Mainly he'd backed off and Kurt had noticed that David was on edge. He hadn't bothered Kurt. More like he'd avoided him completely.
After what Dave had told Kurt, Kurt recognised that Dave hadn't had anyone to talk to about the kiss. In fact about anything involving his sexuality. Of course, Kurt was willing to help, he knew how hard it was for Dave.
So that was Dave down, Blaine to go.
Okay, don't get me wrong, I love Blaine! But some of the things I've said in this chapter I think are true. Like how Kurt was kind of like a second choice. He was all for dating Jeremiah, but then Kurt told him how he feels and suddenly he was all for dating Kurt. It made me feel that Kurt was kind of like a rebound. That might just be me, I don't know. Everyone had their own opinion. Anyway, enjoy :) Thanks for the reviews and alerts! Really appreciated!
