Chapter 21
"I know you're up to something," Sebastian said as he stirred his coffee.
"Do you now?" Jesse asked sounding thoroughly amused. "And what makes you so sure my insanely sexy friend?"
"That little half smirk on your mouth gives you away," Sebastian pointed out. "I can only assume that you and our little puppy-dog Blaine have arranged something with Hummel. I can see in your face that you're waiting for whatever it is to happen."
"You read me as well as your favourite gay magazine," Jesse told him. "And yes, we have planned something with the China Doll. With excellent advice and help from Blaine and myself, we fully intend to help Kurt win you back."
"That's never going to happen," Sebastian replied stubbornly sending his friend a mutinous glare.
"By all means my scheming seductive friend, resist temptation for as long as you can," Jesse challenged him. "I'm sure it will make everything more fun that way. Also Blaine and I have a bet going for how long it will take for you to cave in and just beg for Kurt's cock."
"You are such a little bitch," Sebastian scowled.
"You taught me well, Mr Smythe," Jesse smiled sharing a quick peck on the lips with his friend before focusing his attention on the double doors.
"So what is this plan?" Sebastian asked forcing on a disinterested tone even though he was rather curious. "Have Kurt sign and dance to me in front of everyone while we eat breakfast?"
"No, we'll save a song and dance number for later," Jesse informed him. "And you haven't actually touched your breakfast yet."
"I'm not hungry," Sebastian shrugged.
"Hungry or not you should eat something," Jesse advised him. "You're going to need strength and energy when you finally agree to be Kurt's bitch and take things to the bedroom."
"I am not anybody's bitch," Sebastian scoffed.
"We'll see," Jesse grinned just as the doors to the dining hall opened. "So, what do you think?"
"Holy shit," Sebastian swore. "You're evil," he added to Jesse.
"I try," Jesse answered with a laugh watching the predatory 'I want to fuck you so bad' look appear across Sebastian's face as Kurt strutted around.
"Damn, Kurt Hummel is looking fine," a boy in the year above commented as he paused by Jesse and Sebastian's table. "I definitely need to ask him out on a date."
"You definitely need to back off," Sebastian corrected scowling at the older teenager.
"You should do as he says," Jesse advised. "My lovely little friend here gets extremely violent when he's consumed by jealousy."
"I'm not jealous," Sebastian hissed as the older boy moved along.
"Hey Seb," Thad said coming up behind Sebastian's chair. "I have to say, you've done a lot of dumb things, but boy you really messed things up this time. You never should have made that bet. You should have wooed Kurt Hummel and then kept him. Only a fool would let such a gorgeous specimen slip through their fingers."
"Stop perving over him Thad, he's not a piece of meat and he would never be interested in dating a loser like you," Sebastian said scathingly.
"Why not?" Thad asked. "If you could get him he must be pretty easy."
Sebastian launched out of his seat ready to attack but Jesse moved faster and held him back while ordering Thad to walk away.
"Calm down," Jesse instructed soothingly. "You know I wouldn't survive a day if my best friend got expelled from Dalton. Now, sit back down, drink your coffee, eat your breakfast and admire Kurt's beautiful form while you tell me how much you approve of the outfit I selected for him."
"Was it really necessary for the pants to be that tight with the shirt that see-through?" Sebastian asked with a hint of a whine to his voice.
"It is pretty hot isn't it?" Jesse smiled proudly. "If I wasn't planning to get you two pretty boys together I'd certainly make advances towards him myself."
Sebastian glared.
"Don't worry, Kurt is purely for you," Jesse told him. "I promise I will not touch or defile. Now if you please, return your focus to the China Doll so that Blaine can carry out the next part of our make-Sebastian-squirm-drool-and-get-a-painfully-hard-erection plan."
Sebastian truly considered the idea of not looking over but he just couldn't resist. He turned his eyes to Kurt who was still stood in the hall wearing tight black leather pants with a white shirt and receiving a lot of attention from other boys. Sebastian watched on as Blaine circled round Kurt holding a cup of water before *accidentally* spilling the liquid down Kurt's torso.
"Fuck," Sebastian swore as the wet shirt clung perfectly to Kurt's lithe body.
"Beautiful isn't it?" Jesse asked. "And is it just me or does it really make you just want to suckle his nipples?"
"Is this really necessary?" Sebastian asked as he crossed his legs awkwardly.
"No, but it is certainly more fun this way," Jesse grinned as he flipped his hair out of his eyes. "And it seems that Smythe Junior is enjoying himself at any rate. Are you going to deal with that raging hard-on yourself or are you prepared to give in now and let Kurt take care of it? I'm sure his mouth would be delightful and I know his hands are incredibly soft because of his genius duck-fat secret that he kindly shared with me. Feel how soft my hands are."
"I am never washing your hair for you again," Sebastian snapped at Jesse before getting up and awkwardly walking out of the hall trying his best to ignore how those around him noticed his erection tenting his pants and pointed and laughed.
"Boys?" Kurt asked as he and Blaine sat with Jesse. "Remind me again how this was supposed to help me get Sebastian back?"
"To be honest this was purely for entertainment value," Jesse explained. "I truly adore my Sebastian but I have to be honest and say I love to watch him squirm."
"So I'm wearing leather pants and a wet shirt for your amusement?" Kurt asked sounding annoyed. "Your next plan better be more helpful or I'll have to find myself new accomplices."
"Ouch, you wound me, Kurt," Jesse responded holding a hand over his heart.
"We're sorry," Blaine apologised offering Kurt a charming smile. "We'll think of something smarter next time. We really want the two of you to be together and I promise you we're going to do what we can to help. And besides, you'll never find accomplices better than the two of us."
"And certainly not with greater talent of better hair," Jesse added.
"I don't know, I think my girlfriends could give you a run for your money," Kurt said playfully.
"That sounds like a challenge," Jesse mused. "You'll have to arrange a diva-off between us and your girls so we can settle once and for all who the superior talents with great hair are."
"That does sound like fun," Blaine smiled looking excited by the prospect.
"Not fun," Jesse reprimanded him. "No, no, this is vocal war and we must conquer or else lock ourselves away in a dark room so that nobody can view our humiliation."
"I must confess that my curiosity is piqued," Kurt said. "You and Rachel Berry are the two most dramatic and insane people I've met. I wouldn't like to guess who would win a sing-off between the two of you but I'm curious to find out. And Blaine, perhaps you'll be courageous enough to go up against Mercedes?"
"Sure, friendly competition is great," Blaine agreed. "We should try and include Sebastian."
"He can have a vocal duel with Santana," Kurt decided. "That will be a show well worth watching I'm sure. In fact, those two would probably make an intense couple if they weren't both gay."
"Well, if you boys will excuse me I should begin preparations for my diva-off," Jesse said standing to leave.
"Wait, what about plans to reunite me with Sebastian?" Kurt asked.
"Take note, Kurt," Jesse advised. "Love and romance always comes second to music and performances."
"Don't worry," Blaine told Kurt lightly laying a hand on his shoulder. "We'll figure something out. Sebastian can be stubborn but he won't be able to resist your epic awesomeness for long. And as well as us having fun with a friendly diva-off with your New Direction friends, we can have fun working on a number for you to perform to Sebastian. I already have a great idea and Jeff and Nick have agreed to help with choreography."
"What's your idea?" Kurt asked. "And please tell me it doesn't involve water or leather pants."
"Your Warbler outfit will be fine," Blaine assured him. "And what I have in mind is something a little more… sexy."
"Sexy?" Kurt repeated nervously. "I'm not entirely sure I can pull off sexy."
"Kurt, from the second you walked in here in those leather pants all the gay and bisexual guys couldn't take their eyes off you," Blaine pointed out. "Seriously, can you not tell how many people are checking you out right now? There's at least nine that I can tell and ordinarily I'm almost embarrassingly oblivious to this stuff. Trust me, Kurt, you're sexy."
"Thank you," Kurt said politely shifting in his seat feeling a little uncomfortable now that he was aware of other boys checking him out. "Can we get out of here?"

With breakfast over, the school day began. Kurt was out of the wet shirt and leather pants and back in his Dalton uniform sitting beside Blaine as he spoke fluid French.
"Still annoyed that's he's better than you at everything?" Jesse asked Sebastian teasingly.
"A little," Sebastian admitted feeling a stab of anger towards Blaine every time he touched Kurt's arm or managed to make the boy smile. "Is Blaine deliberately trying to irritate me or is it just a natural talent?"
"Relax, Blaine isn't a sexual rival. He and Kurt are just good friends," Jesse assured him. "The two of us kiss and cuddle all the time and Kurt doesn't get jealous. And if Blaine did decide to throw Kurt down on a desk and make sweet passionate love to him then it's none of your business since you've yet to agree to date Kurt again. A boy like Kurt won't stay single forever you know? And he won't wait for you forever either. You need to stop punishing yourself and let yourself be happy with Kurt or you'll end up miserable and lonely forever. Do you really want that?"
"Maybe I do," Sebastian shrugged. "I'm so used to being on my own and not having proper meaningful relationships that I'm more comfortable that way. Perhaps I should just walk the world alone forever."
"Bas, baby, you're actually a really depressing creature to be around right now," Jesse said honestly. "You look devastatingly miserable, your body posture is currently awful and your eyes are lifeless. It is not an attractive look for you."
"I just feel really drained right now," Sebastian sighed. "Physically and emotionally."
"You know, just a simple kiss from Kurt's pretty little lips could restore the life and energy back in your eyes and make you look sexy again," Jesse said.
"I need to get some air," Sebastian decided. "Tell Mademoiselle Hart that I've gone to be sick."
Without glancing back, Sebastian walked out of the classroom and slowly made his way down the corridor. He slipped off his blazer and slung it over his shoulder, holding it by the crook of one finger.
"I walk a lonely road," Sebastian sang to the empty hallways. "The only one that I have ever known, don't know where it goes, but its home to me and I walk alone." He turned on his heel and observed his surroundings before heading out of the main doors of the school.
He walked through the parking lot and easily slipped out of the school gates. Sweeping a hand through his hair, he set off down the sidewalk, not a car or person in sight.
"I walk this empty street, on the boulevard of broken dreams, when the city sleeps, and I'm the only one and I walk alone," Sebastian continued to sing to himself. "I walk alone, I walk alone, I walk alone, I walk a… My shadow's the only one that walks beside me, my shallow heart's the only thing that's beating," he grasped his hand at the part of his shirt that covered his heart before looking heavenward. "Sometimes I wish someone up there will find me, 'til then I walk alone," he ducked his head back down the ground and carried on walking.
He ended up at the Lima Bean drinking a coffee all alone until a twenty-something with butterscotch hair joined him. Flirtatious comments were exchanged as second then third drinks of coffee were bought. Eyes scanned one another and fingers interlaced as they set off to the older man's car. Heartbeats raced as shirts, shoes and pants were removed.
Then the man's breath ghosted across Sebastian's mouth and it tickled. Then Kurt's face made itself known in Sebastian's mind and his entire body suddenly felt cold.
"I've changed my mind," Sebastian said simply pushing the man off of him and pulling his clothes back on, ignoring the annoyed man's 'what the fuck?'
Exiting the car and pulling his blazer back on, Sebastian headed back to Dalton Academy and attended the rest of his classes with that same lifeless look in his eyes.
"He looks really sad," Blaine pointed out.
"Don't worry," Jesse said. "This diva-off thing with the girls will liven him up. A little competitiveness will perk Sebastian right up."
"That's arranged for this weekend, we need to do something before then," Blaine argued. "If we don't intervene now he'll redraw into himself more and that will make it more difficult to coax him back out. Perhaps we should have a Harry Potter Movie Marathon. Or we could bake him some cookies, everybody loves cookies."
"Leave it to me," Jesse said. "I'm good at getting him to talk even when he doesn't really want to. Then I'll just listen. Sometimes that's really all Sebastian needs."

That night, Jesse sat at Sebastian's bedside for an hour and thirty-seven minutes before Sebastian opened up and started talking. Then Jesse simply listened for just under an hour before curling up beside his best friend and going to sleep.
