Hey, sorry, um, my computer broke, and I've been busy with softball, I have a lot of injuries from it now, and then I had Spring Break, which I went to the east coast, it was awesome. I rode the tallest coaster in the world which happens to be the fastest coaster in the US, twice. And then I got to go to NYC for the first time, it was like a dream, and then I went to Philadelphia and saw Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell and then I went to Valley Forge and saw George Washington's winter headquarters during the Revolutionary war. Anyways, after my computer was fixed, my files were lost because I put the files on a flash drive, but then I lost the flash drive. Smart, right? So here's this chapter. I don't think it has much to do with the plot of the story, nor does the next one, just thought some randomness would be good. This is Thursday May 29th 2014. Also, one more thing, I'm starting a new story soon, and would you guys please read and review it? It's called 'Aphrodite'' and it would be appreciated.

Beta: this chapter is unbetaed because I wanted to get this out quick.
Kurt
Kurt was ready to go back to school. He and Blaine had skipped the day before to each other's promise. They talked about everything and nothing all day the previous day. And Kurt didn't really feel like facing Chandler the day before, but he was now ready.
Blaine walked Kurt to his classroom and gave him a quick kiss before hurrying off to his class. Kurt walked in and found an empty chair next to Rachel, so he sat down next to her.
"Hi Rach," he said, smiling.
"Hey Kurt. What, not hanging out with Chandler today?" she asked.
Kurt's smile darkened. "Chandler can go screw himself," he scowled.
Rachel raised an eyebrow but didn't press on. "So where were you yesterday?"
"Blaine and I stayed home and talked," Kurt said, his smile back.
"Oh, is that all you did? Or was there more?" she asked.
Kurt blushed a deep scarlet red. "Maybe, but that's none of your business. Just like it's none of my business on what you and my brother do."
"I'll take that as a yes. And if you must know, Finn and I-"
"RACHEL!"
"Sorry," she snickered, "I couldn't resist."
"If you weren't pregnant with my niece and nephew right now I would hit you," Kurt threatened.
Rachel gasped. "You would hit mwah?"
"Yes, now shut up."
"Fine, so how was your birthday?" she asked.
"I'll tell you at lunch, it's a very long and drama filled story," Kurt said.
"Okay, but I will hold you to that," Rachel said.
Just then Chandler walked into the room. He stopped and scanned the room and smiled when he saw Kurt. Kurt internally groaned as he saw him walking towards them. He stopped just in front of Kurt and Rachel.
"Hello Rachel. Hello Kurt," Chandler smiled.
"Go away Chandler," Kurt growled.
"Woah, what's got you in a mood?" Chandler asked.
"You, you bastard, now I repeat, go away," Kurt sneered.
"Only because you asked so nicely," Chandler winked and walked away to the opposite side of the room and took a seat.
Kurt turned and saw Rachel silently laughing. "What?" Kurt asked.
"Nothing, I've just missed you and your snarky ways," Rachel replied.
Kurt tolled his eyes and paid attention to Mr. Lebowitz as he had just entered the room.
By the time lunch came around Rachel was bouncing in her seat. One of the teachers even asked her if she had to go to the bathroom. When class was over Rachel grabbed Kurt's arm and dragged him out of the school and to Grounded. She ordered herself a Chai tea, and Kurt a Grande Non-fat Mocha, and a promise to come to work later. She sat Kurt down at the table that Kurt and Blaine had met at and sat down herself.
"Okay, spill. What went down on your birthday to make you hate Chandler's guts? I want every little detail. Now," Rachel demanded.
So Kurt told her everything, literally, everything. From the cab ride to the fight to what he yelled at Chandler to the song Blaine wrote. Kurt took a drink of his coffee when he was done and waited for Rachel's reaction.
"Wow, well first, Blaine is a major romantic, no matter how hard he tries to deny it. Second, Chandler is a creep. And third, I think you had every right to be mad, but I think Blaine was right also," Rachel said.
"Really? I mean, Blaine had every right looking back on it now, but you didn't think I was over reacting?" Kurt asked.
"No. If Finn and I weren't married and I wasn't pregnant, I would have acted the same way. But I am the only woman Finn smiles like an idiot at. If he's smiling like an idiot when another woman is singing to him, then he's either thinking about me, or something stupid like a Llama driving a convertible or something like that," Rachel said laughing.
Kurt was going to try and defend his brother, but he couldn't think of anything to say to defend him, so instead he laughed. "Hey, Llama's are very smart. You never know, they could drive convertibles, you know, after their done spitting on it. And I bet you Puck was the one that taught the Llama to drive," he said.
Rachel was laughing in her seat. And Kurt was laughing right along with her. "Oh my God, Kurt, I don't think I've laughed this much since, well, since I can remember. Thank you," Rachel said wiping a tear from her eye.
"You're welcome," Kurt said and checked his phone. "Come on, we have to get back to school."
They stood up and went back to school. They got through the rest of the day without disturbance from Chandler. Until Kurt started to leave for work.
Rachel had left for work and Kurt had to walk to work. He started walking and then he was right there walking right next to him. Kurt stopped and turned to Chandler.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Kurt asked.
"What are you talking about?" Chandler asked.
"Just what I said, what is wrong with you?" Kurt asked, stepping closer to him and getting into his face.
"What's wrong with me is I'm in love with you," Chandler said and then he kissed Kurt, again.
Kurt stepped back and slapped him, again. "Leave me the hell alone! I'm in love with Blaine! Not you!" he hissed.
"I could change that if you would just give me a chance, Kurt," Chandler said as he scowled.
"I'm not going to give you a chance, because I'm with Blaine. I love him with all my heart and I hope to marry him and have kids with him one day. I would've maybe hung out with you more in a few days after I cooled down about what you did because I like you Chandler. But as a friend. But now I won't even consider it because you keep pursuing me romantically. If you can't accept me as a friend, then I don't want anything to do with you. I'm sorry, but leave me alone," Kurt said to Chandler and then walked away.
"You're going to regret your choice Kurt," Chandler called after him.
"I doubt that," Kurt yelled over his shoulder.
Kurt arrived at work and went to see his boss Isabelle.
"Hello Isabelle. What do I need to do today?" he asked.
"Well right now you need to come and sit down," Isabelle said and pointed to the chair next to her at the conference table.
"Okay. Am I in trouble?" Kurt asked.
"Hmn? Oh! No, no, no. I guess that's what it looks like doesn't it? No, I just wanted to catch up and talk to you about your life. It seems we don't do that anymore," Isabelle said.
"Oh, okay. Phew, I thought I was in trouble," Kurt said setting down his messenger bag and sitting down.
"It's oka. So, I want to know what is going on in your life right this very minute. Like how was your birthday? Why didn't you come to work yesterday? And what has you so stressed right now?" Isabelle asked.
"Oh you don't want to hear that. It's so full of drama," Kurt said waving his hand to dismiss the thought and he leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs.
"Kurt. I live in drama. I work in the fashion industry. I think I can handle your drama in life. Now spill," Isabelle demanded.
Kurt sighed. "Okay fine, but it's a looong story," he said and then told her everything. From what happened on his birthday to what he and Blaine talked about the day before, he didn't go into detail about what they talked about, but he told her the gist of it. He also told her about his conversation with Rachel and his conversation with Chandler on the way into work. And the whole time she didn't interrupt, well only to ask really important questions.
"Does Blaine know about your most recent conversation with Chandler?" Isabelle asked after he saw finished.
"No, like I said, it happened on my way to work today," Kurt said.
"Well then I want you to go home and tell him. Right now. Take the rest of work off today. No if's, ands, or buts' about it," Isabelle said.
"But-"
"I said no buts'. But before you go, I want to talk to you about something," Isabelle said.
"Okay. What?" Kurt asked.
"How long have you been an Intern here?" she asked.
"About a year and a half. Why?" Kurt asked.
"Because my assistant recently moved on. And I think it's time you were promoted," Isabelle said.
"Really?!" Kurt asked.
"Really. You get about 5 dollars more an hour. But you would also have to come in on Sundays for the day and be on call if I need you," Isabelle said.
"Who cares? This is great news! I can't believe this! I can't wait to go home and tell Blaine! Thank you!" Kurt said as he stood up. He went over and hugged Isabelle.
"You're welcome. Now go home," Isabelle said.
"Thank you!" Kurt yelled over his shoulder as he headed out.
He got home and realized that it was only 3:20. Lily didn't get home until 5 and Blaine didn't get home until 6:15. Kurt had some, well a lot of time to kill so he went into his room and got out his sketchbook and some pencils and started sketching some designs. He worked on a wedding dress that he was working on, and then some ball gowns, and finally some bowties. He finished and looked at the clock next to his bed. Only 4:15. So, he thought of something to do that he had never done before. Song writing. Blaine did it and made it seem hard, so he wanted to see if it actually was.
He got out a fresh notebook and opened to a blank page. He sat there and thought for a few minutes and then he thought of something to write. He wrote it down and all of a sudden he was writing very fast and then he had a song. He flipped to a new page and wrote another song, and before he knew it he had 5 or 6 songs.
Then he heard the front door open and he knew that Lily was home. He decided he would scare her. So he put his sketchbook, notebook, and pencils away and snuck out of his room. Lily had 'Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee' from Grease on her iPod on and she was dancing around the kitchen singing along as she made herself a sandwich.
"Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee, lousy with virginity," she sang as she wiggled her butt with her back to Kurt. She had a piece of bread in one hand and a butter knife in the other.
"Won't go to bed 'till I'm legally wed. I can't! I'm Sandra Dee!" Kurt walked up behind her.
"Watch it! Hey, I'm Doris Day; I was not brought up that way!" Kurt put his hands on Lily's shoulders and yelled "You're going to spoil your dinner!"
"Holy shit!" Lily yelled as she dropped the bread and knife on the counter and spun around. "You scared the hell out of me!"
Kurt was laughing so hard that he had to hold his sides.
"You're an ass. I thought you were at work!" Lily said.
"I can see that. But no, Isabelle let me come home early after she gave me a promotion," Kurt said.
"That's awesome! But you didn't have to scare me like that. That was a major Blaine move," Lily said.
"What can I say? He's rubbing off on me. You want to watch some reruns of 'Sing' with me?" Kurt asked.
"Yes," Lily said turning her iPod off, "I'll be in there in a minute."
"Okay," Kurt said and he went into the living room and then turned on the TV. He picked episode 9 of 'Sing' because he liked the whole thing with the bake sale and Diva off.
Lily came in a few minutes later with a sandwich. "Which episode?" she asked.
"Wheels. Diva off and bake sale," Kurt replied.
"Did Rachel really win the diva off in sophomore year?" Lily asked taking a bite of her sandwich.
"Yes and last year during our diva off I won," Kurt said.
"You had another one?" Lily asked.
"Yes, I was fed up with her and her being a diva, so I challenged her and won. So we both won one," Kurt said.
"I would have loved to see that," Lily said.
"It wasn't all that interesting. Now eat with your mouth closed and watch," Kurt said.
They watched an entire episode and then Kurt got up to make dinner. He got out some potatoes, peppers, onions, and Kielbasas. He was making hash. He started chopping the peppers and onions when the front door opened and Blaine came in.
"Hey boo! Mmm, looks good. Whatcha cooking?' Blaine asked.
"Hash. Hey I have some exciting news, and some not so exciting new," Kurt said.
"Well I have some exciting news too. But I want yours first," Blaine said putting his arms around Kurt's waist and spinning him around.
"The good or not so good first?" Kurt asked, putting his arms around Blaine's neck.
"Start with the not so good." Blaine said.
So Kurt went into everything that happened with Chandler that day, including the kiss.
Blaine growled, "I'm going to kill him."
"No, you will not. I will handle this. I don't need you protecting me all the time," Kurt said.
"Fine, but if he kisses you again…"
"Then you can punch him. In the face and break his glasses. Okay?" Kurt asked.
"Okay."
Just then Lily came in and saw them and groaned. "So this is what is holding up dinner. You know what? Out. You go talk or make out or whatever. I'll finish dinner."
"But-" Kurt protested.
"Go. Now," Lily pointed.
"Fine, come on BB," Kurt said kissing Blaine on the nose.
They went out into the living room and sat on the couch. They tangled their legs together and they intertwined their fingers.
"So, what's your good news?" Blaine asked.
"Oh! Isabelle gave me a promotion!" Kurt said.
"That's great Boo!" Blaine exclaimed.
"Yes, I get 5 dollars more an hour. But I also have to work on Sundays and I have to be on call if Isabelle needs anything," Kurt explained.
"So I get less time with you?" Blaine pouted.
"Yes, but that also means you can spend time with your friends. You know, the ones you abandoned for me," Kurt said.
"Hey! I saw them last week!" Blaine protested.
"Whatever. So what's your good news?" Kurt asked.
Blaine perked up, "Oh! I finished my song!"
"Wow, that's great BB!" Kurt said. 'I finished 5 today' he thought. He wasn't going to say anything because he didn't want to rain on Blaine's parade.
"Yeah, I thought that since I finished the song early, that we could g to 'Callbacks' this weekend and try it out," Blaine said.
"Yes, and we'll invite Lily, Finn, Rachel, Wes, David, Nick, Jeff, Sebastian, and Hunter. Make it a party!" Kurt said.
"Okay! I'll call Wes and David, and I'll get Lily to call Jeff and Nick. You'll cover Sebastian and Hunter?" Blaine asked.
"Yeah, and I'll ask Rachel tomorrow at school." Kurt said.
"Okay, so Saturday at 7:30?" Blaine asked.
"Yes, now go see if Lily'll call Jeff and I'll call Sebastian," Kurt said.
"Okay," Blaine said and he kissed Kurt on the forehead and got up. Suddenly Kurt's phone rang.
Kurt picked it up. "Well speak of the devil. I was about to call you."
"Well I do have impeccable timing," Sebastian replied.
"You know you're an ass. I called you 2 days ago and you're just now getting back to me?" Kurt asked.
"Oui. I know I am. But like my voicemail said, I was getting it on with Hunter and I couldn't give a shit. So I replied when I finally cared to give a shit," Sebastian replied.
Kurt rolled his eyes. "I see. Forget I said anything. Wait, hold up. You speak French?' he asked.
"Yes I speak French. I lived in Paris," Sebastian said.
"Of course you did. So if you speak French, alors vous pouvez me comprendre?" Kurt asked. (Translation: then you can understand me?)
"Euh bah. Bon sang, j'ai dit que je parlais français. Cela signifie que je peux parler français," Sebastian said. (Translation: Uh duh. Geez, I said I spoke French. That meansI can speak French,)
"Just checking," Kurt replied. "So the reason I was calling you today was to see if you and Hunter wanted to go to 'Callbacks' on Saturday around 7:30. Blaine wrote a song and he's going to try it out."
"Hmmm, maybe. Who else is going to be there?" Sebastian asked.
"Well, I don't know yet. But we're also asking Jeff, Nick, Wes, David, Lily, Finn, and Rachel," Kurt said.
"Then yes," Sebastian said.
"Okay, see you Saturday," Kurt said.
"Au revoir," Sebastian said and then hung up.
Kurt hung up the phone and Blaine came out of the kitchen.
"Wes, David, Nick, Jeff, and Lily are all in," Blaine said.
"Sebastian and Hunter are in," Kurt said.
"All is left is Finn and Rachel," Blaine said.
"Yeah, hey, you want to get coffee tomorrow with me and Lily at 'Grounded'? Rachel'll be working," Kurt asked Blaine.
"Sure, that would be great, at lunch?" Blaine asked.
"Yeah, Rachel is picking up an extra shift during lunch for some extra cash," Kurt said.
"Okay, but now… dinner."
Longer chapter. So you like the snarky Kurt and Sebastian? Thought I would bring them back for a little while. So please check out my new fic 'Aphrodite' when you can. I should have it up sometime within the next week or so.
