Chapter Six-Dinner with Kurt
He dropped Finn off and went to park the car, he was hoping that Blaine made it home alright, it was the best morning he has ever had since he started high school. He did not think that was going to happen at all, he was just being nice to a friend. And now he was thinking of what would have happened if Finn did not knock on his door.
Walking into school he tried not to smile much, he knew that Mercedes would think something was up, and he knew that he was able to tell her anything. He could not tell anyone about what happened at all. He walked to his locker and Mercedes was standing there waiting for him.
"Morning Kurt, so I wanted to ask you something?"
"Sure, what is it Mercedes?" He asked as he opened his locker to get his books out for class.
"I was wondering if you were going to try out for the musical, I want to try and beat Rachel and the role of Maria."
"I think you should do it Mercedes, you have a great voice, and maybe it is time for the whole school to hear it." He smiled at her. "I think I will try out also, I do not know if I will get Tony, but I at least want to do it." So he could also spend more time with Blaine, but he did not say that part out loud.
"Wonderful, so after school we need to try out. I already know the song I want to do." She told him as the bell rang.
"I cannot wait to hear it after school." He said as he started to walk to class. "See you in glee." He told her as he walked to his first class.
Kurt was not listening in most of his classes; he just kept replaying the make out scene in his head over and over again. Wondering what would have happen if Finn did not knock, he sometimes wishes his brother was a little smarter. Who forgets to put gas in their car? This was the first time in a long time that Kurt was looking forward to glee, though he was always looking forward to it. There was more of a reason this time. Blaine and he might not talk but he gets to stare at him and think of those lips.
The bell rang and his classes were over, he went over to his locker and put all his books away, as he was walking to glee club, Rachel and Blaine were standing outside his locker. She kissed him right as Kurt walked by, and as that happened you could see Blaine's eyes turn to Kurt. Kurt just walked, pretending that he did not see anything at all. When he got into glee he took his seat.
Right after Blaine and Rachel walked in, Mr. Suhue walked in with Coach Beastie.
"I hope everyone has picked out a song for the musical this year. Coach Beastie is helping me out this year; also helping us out will be Arty." Everyone clapped, knowing that it was Aurtie's dream to become a director. "So if everyone is ready we wills start auditions."
Kurt knew what song he was going to do, but he had to wait for his name to be called. First up was Blaine. And everyone knew that he was trying out for Tony. He sang Something's Coming and everyone loved it, Kurt clapped with everyone else also. Couch Beastie was ever crying he was going to for sure get the part. After Blaine, more people walked up, and then he heard his name get called. He took a big breath and walked to the front of the class room. It had been a long time since he sang a solo, he did not know if he was going to be able to do this.
He looked over at Mercedes who was smiling at him, and he knew that he was going to be able to do this.
Standing there looking at everyone he started to sing Maria, Mercedes smiled when he was singing the song, Kurt might not have been manly enough to play Tony, but he did have the voice for Tony. Then he looked over at Blaine who was holding hands with Rachel, he was smiling at him. That was something that had never happened before when he was singing.
When the song was over, Mercedes stood up and clapped. So did most of the other people in glee. Kurt had a smile on his face, for the first time in a while he felt like he did something great, he went back to where Mercedes was and took a seat, knowing that soon it was going to be her turn to perform, he looked over at Blaine and he had a smile on his face.
Auditions were over, there were some people that were not part of glee that tried out; they would find out on Friday which part everyone got. Kurt was hoping that he would get Tony, but he knew that Blaine was the best one for that role. But he did not want to tell anyone that, he hoped that they would think that he would make a good Tony.
After glee was over Kurt walked over to his car, he left his phone in there so no one would brother him while he was in glee, he checked his phone when he sat down, and he saw that he had three messages. One from his father letting him know that he would be online tonight to Skype with him, the other from Finn saying that Puck was going to give him a ride home, so Kurt did not have to wait. The last one was from Blaine telling him that he did wonderful today and that he might have a chance to get Tony. That made Kurt smile a little, he sent a quick message to Blaine telling thanks. Then he headed back to the house.
It was empty in the house, his father and step-mother were gone Finn was at practices. So that left Kurt alone in the house, at least for two to three hours while Finn was at football practices. He walked into the kitchen and started cooking him something for dinner. He was reminding himself that he was only cooking for him and maybe for Finn, if he wanted to eat when he got home.
While he was getting the oven ready to put two chicken breast in the oven his phone buzzed. He told himself he would get it when he was done with the chicken. When he got the chicken in the oven, he set the timer and walked over to his phone, he saw that it was a message from Blaine.
Is there anyone at your house?-B
No, dad and step-mom are gone and Finn is at practices for a few more hours?-K
wants me to come over, so you are not alone. No one is home over here, and Rachel is busy making sure she will be the perfect Maria. –B
Kurt did not know if he wanted him to come over, what if Finn got off practices early, but he did want to see Blaine.
Sure-K
Alright, I will be there soon. Want me to get you a coffee I am at the Lima Bean-B
Sure I'll take a white mocha latte-K
See you soon Kurt-B
Blaine was going to come over, that was not something he thought was going to happen at all, he thought this morning was just something that happened. It seemed that Blaine really wanted to spend time with Kurt. About ten minutes later he heard his door knock. It was Blaine standing there with two coffees.
Kurt opened the door. "I see you remembered where I lived." He said with a smile on his face.
"Well I did walk home this morning, so I remembered." He said as he was handing Kurt his coffee.
"Thanks Blaine, I am cooking some chicken, it is almost done, and I did not know if you have ate yet."
"Baked Chicken?" He asked.
"Yes, and some green beans and mac and cheese." It was nothing special it was just something easy to make.
"I would be honor to join you." He said as he walked into the kitchen and the timer on the oven meaning the chicken was done. He went to grab the chicken out, and cut it to make sure it was done. The mac and cheese was leftovers from last night, and the green beans were just can, it was not what he liked to do, but it was quick and he was hungry.
"That chicken looks very good Kurt. I did not know you know how to cook."
"I picked it up after my mother died, because my father would get take out all the time and it was getting old and not good for our health." He said, knowing that his dad had a heart attack a few years back he did not want to lose his father also, he already lost his mother, he could not lose his father also.
He went and grabbed two plates and put them on the table, brought the food and sat down next to Blaine.
"Blaine this is the first time I have not ate by myself when my father is gone, Finn is never home and I am glad you wanted to come over."
"I am glad that you let me come over, I like spending time with you. I can be myself when I am with you."
"I do like it when you are being you, so did you really mean that I could have a shot at Tony?"
Blaine took a bit of the chicken, it felt like little people dancing in his mouth, Kurt was a wonderful cook. "Yes Me so believe that you have a chance, you sand Maria with so much passion and you could give me a run for my money." He said taking another bit. "This chicken is so great."
"Thanks, I think you have Tony in the bag, I mean who would want a gay guy to play the lead role." Kurt said, and then he thought about what he said. "I mean an open gay guy."
Blaine laughed, "If they knew the truth they would not have a lead. We were the only two that went for Tony. But I do not think they care who gets it, you would be a perfect Tony and I would love to see Mercedes as Maria."
"Do not tell your girlfriend that, she would get upset that you said that." Kurt laughed.
"I will not tell her such a thing; she thinks she is the only one in there that can sing. I would love to see her not get the lead for once. Maybe she will understand that you do not always get what you want."
Kurt laughed, Blaine was right Rachel always thought that she was supposed to get everything that she always wanted, maybe it was time for her to not get everything and let someone else have the spot light.
"I still do not see how you could date her, not because you are gay, but she is just so Rachel."
"It is to make my family happy, they love Rachel and her family, even though she has two gay dads my father loves her. Not a fan of the family though. I just want to make them happy."
"I glad my father loves me for who I am, and I do not have to pretend to be someone that I am not."
"Same here Kurt, one day I will be able to say something to my father, but right now I just want to keep him happy so I can leave this town and move to New York and get one with my life, and have him find out that I am gay when I am some big star."
"That would be a way to let him know, he would not know what hit him. I am also going to New York; I want to be on Broadway."
It was his life dream to be on Broadway, he hoped that he would be able to be the next big star.
"Maybe I can even be bigger than Rachel. Now that would be funny."
He said laughing as he got up out of his seat and took his plate to the sink. Blaine followed behind him.
