"Blaine, can I ask you something?"
Kurt had been on the phone to Blaine for the past half an hour. Originally, he intended to just catch up with Blaine, but after a while he decided to ask for advice from his 'gay best friend'. If Blaine got Kurt's advice, then why not the other way around?
Kurt heard Blaine emit a chuckle from his end of the phone. "Is it about David?" he asked, leaving Kurt slightly confused.
"How did you..." Kurt started, but Blaine interrupted.
"Kurt. You've been talking about him for the past 15 minutes. At least. So, what's up?"
Kurt flushed, even though Blaine couldn't see him, and forced his lips to start moving.
"Well, I went to his house. He was having some troubles so I said I'd go over so he could speak to me. So we talked and we ended up watching a film. It was nice. But then something happened and I don't know what it was. It was like... temptation took over. I'm not really sure where the temptation came from, but it was definitely there. And I kissed him..." Kurt informed Blaine.
"So, you have feelings for David?" Blaine asked, even though Kurt had expected him to be annoyed or protest the fact that David was Kurt's former bully.
"I... I think so. I'm not sure how long I've felt this way, but earlier something just came over me. I felt like I'd been dying to do it for ages, like I'd been waiting."
"Kurt. I've known you for a while, long enough to learn things about you, and from what I've learnt you're very easy to forgive people. But what David did, isn't as easy to forgive as squabbles with your friends and you forgave him like that." Kurt heard Blaine snap his fingers. "When he rang you that time, the things he said to you, most people would perhaps freak a little or be confused. You took it well. Really well. In fact, when I laughed about it, you defended what he said. If you ask my personal opinion, I think you've liked him for longer than you realise, but today was that last bit that made you... fall for him."
Kurt listened to Blaine's observations, trying to find faults in what he said, but he couldn't. He couldn't help but think that Blaine was correct. Had he really fallen for David Karofsky?
"Oh..." he whispered in surprise and he heard Blaine laugh again.
"Well you know how Dave feels about you, Kurt."
"Yes. I think I do."
"You should talk to him, Kurt. Tell him how you feel. If you kissed him and you've shown no interest previously, then he's probably confused. You need to clear this all up with him."
"I will. Thanks, Blaine. You're like a gay guru," Kurt chuckled. "How's Sebastian?"
Blaine went on to tell Kurt about his previous encounters with Sebastian, ranging from singing a duet with him to actually going on a date with him. He was happy for Blaine. It meant he didn't feel guilty for liking Dave.
"It's been really good speaking to you, Kurt. We'll have to arrange to meet up sometime, go for coffee or something?"
"That sounds great. I'll talk to you soon. Night, Blaine."
Kurt waited for Blaine to return his farewells before hanging up. He made a mental note to talk to Dave tomorrow and clear everything up like Blaine had suggested.
Dave hadn't slept well at all. He'd been kept up by thoughts of Kurt, asking himself why what had happened had indeed happened. He could also see that Kurt was willing to go further than kissing and that confused him. Kurt had never shown any interest in David. What had suddenly come over him?
He didn't regret stopping Kurt, although it was pretty difficult to resist the urge to carry on. He couldn't let Kurt do something that he'd regret and he was sure he's definitely regret it.
David went to school the next day, barely having slept 3 hours. He yawned as he settled into his desk in Spanish, resting his head in his hands. He tried to force his eyelids open, but they felt heavy and soon began drooping.
Kurt was there, like yesterday, practically sitting on Dave's lap. He whispered Dave's name as he leant next to his ear, before leaning back to run his thumb down David's jaw. He leant into Dave a placed a kiss on his lips, gently. Soon his tongue was running along the footballer's top lip, begging for entry, and he immediately gave in. As Kurt deepened the kiss, Dave's name escaped his lips in a low husky chant. "Dave," he called. "Dave."
"Dave? Dave? Dude! Wake up!" Dave heard a voice call, accompanied by a nudge in the ribs. Dave's eyes immediately sprang open and he sat up, glaring at the clock and noticing that it seemed to have skipped 10 minutes. He looked back to the space next to him which was now occupied by a confused Azimio.
"I think you were drooling, man," he chuckled, watching as Dave brought the edge of his sleeve up to wipe his chin. "Who were you dreaming about?"
"What?" was Dave's immediate reaction. He panicked about what he may have said in his sleep.
"Well from what I can see you were enjoying it and I'm sure there was some sleepy moaning there," Azimio laughed, and Dave quickly scooted further under the desk to hide his apparently obvious enjoyment. He leant into his hands again, fingers hiding his now reddening face, and let out a disgruntled groan. This could only happen to him.
"Just... we never speak of this again, yeah?" he offered Azimio, who nodded with a chuckle.
"I got your back, dude. You've got to tell me who she is soon though. Or my tongue may slip..."
"Later, man." Dave nodded at the door where Mr Schuester had strolled in, calling out greetings in Spanish which Dave didn't exactly understand, but had heard enough times before to guess what they meant.
David was settling into his work when his phone buzzed against his thigh. He retrieved it quickly and read the screen, which informed him that he had one new message. From Kurt.
From Fancy: I need to talk to you. Meet me in the auditorium after school?
Dave had a hunch about what Kurt wanted to talk and was more than eager to discuss it himself so he sent back a quick reply.
To Fancy: Sure. See you then.
He knew the day would be long after that. Everything seemed to move slower when he wanted it to speed up. The rest of his lessons and lunch seemed to crawl by and he was relieved when it came to the end of the day. He made up an excuse with Azimio about going to see his English teacher for a catch up pack and he didn't know how long he'd be.
He found his way to the auditorium and paused as he entered, looking around for Kurt. He heard him before he saw him.
"Dave!" he heard Kurt call and his eyes found Kurt, standing on the stage, peeking from behind the large curtain. Dave made his way towards Kurt, climbing onto the stage and finding his way around the curtain to where Kurt stood.
"Hey, Kurt," Dave muttered watching Kurt bite his lip gently. "You wanted to talk?"
"Yeah. About yesterday. Firstly I want to apologise. I shouldn't have done what I did. I was too quick to act and I've probably confused the hell out of you. So I'm sorry about that, but I should probably clear some things up with you. I just... I really like you Dave. Really like you, and I'm not sure whether you've changed your mind or whatever since you called that time and I don't want to push you into anything you're not comfortable with but-"
Kurt was cut off by Dave, who connected their lips urgently. Kurt didn't object and allowed his own lips to move softly against Dave's. When they broke apart, Kurt looked up through his lashes to find Dave's eyes.
"That was a really good way to shut me up," he sighed and Dave chuckled.
"I'll never change my mind about you," Dave clarified, before swooping in for one last kiss.
