Chapter 6:

Kurt's talk with Rachel was constantly on his mind for the next couple of days. Rachel gave him a lot to consider. He thought Blaine was attractive from the first time he saw him on the stage receiving his Tony. He considered Blaine as one of his closest friends. He knew he liked Blaine. He wanted more, but he was afraid. His bad break up with Chandler was affecting his better judgment. He had to believe his friends, and all his friends kept assuring him that Blaine was not a gold digger nor was he going to sell their possible relationship to the press. Kurt trusted Blaine. He had told him about his mother, about the bullying he had faced back in High School, about his long friendship with Rachel and a little about his friendship with Jeff and Nick. Their friendship was unique and open. They told each other everything, except he hadn't told Blaine the one thing that deeply affected his present life. And he knew that if he wanted a proper relationship, with anyone for that matter, someday, he had to let go of his past and move on. So he decided that he would talk to Blaine and see where that lead them to.

To: Blaine Anderson

Hey! Coffee tomorrow after rehearsals? Same place, same time? Need to talk to you about something.

He didn't have to wait long for a reply to come.

From: Blaine Anderson

Sure! Coffee tomorrow sounds great! It will help take my mind away from scripts and set dealings. See you!

Kurt couldn't help but smile at Blaine's message. Now he just had to figure out the best way to tell Blaine about his past.

Blaine arrived early at the coffee shop, having rushed out of the theater as soon as rehearsals were over. He was excited to see Kurt. It had been a couple of weeks since he had seen the man, and they hadn't talked properly for days, only a few texts here and there. He was excited, but he was also slightly on edge. Whatever Kurt wanted to talk to him about sounded urgent, and he had a feeling of what it might be about. And while he wanted to know why Kurt was so hesitant about entering a relationship, he wasn't sure if he wanted to know. He knew that whatever happened broke Kurt enough to make him not trust anyone completely, and he knew that if he ever laid eyes on whoever it was that did so, he would not be responsible for his actions.

Kurt entered the coffee chop at the exact time they normally met and soon found Blaine seated at the corner booth, already with both their coffees. He smiled a little and made his way over, dodging curious glances people threw at him, hoping not to recognized or at least left alone.

Blaine glanced up when Kurt approached, with a huge, genuine smile plastered on his face. "Hey! I got your grande non-fat mocha already. It's been so long. How are you?" Blaine motioned to the coffee and Kurt picked it up and took a sit before responding.

"Hi. Thank you, you didn't have to. Yeah, work has been tiring, busy schedule now as you should know well." Blaine laughed. "I've been well. Tired but in perfect health. How about you?"

Blaine smiled "Well I've been busy, but I'm a lot better now that we've finally got a chance to catch up."

Kurt suddenly shifted in his sit, fiddling with his coat's sleeve and staring out the window. He had caught the flirtier edge of Blaine's words, and he knew that the time had finally come for him to spill the beans.

Blaine noticed the sudden change of his friend's demeanor. "Hey. You said you wanted to talk to me about something. Everything alright?" He asked, his hazel eyes filled with concern.

Kurt hesitated for a moment, before sighing. "There's something I've been meaning to talk to you about, but I don't want to do it here. Too public and open to eavesdroppers. Want to go back to my place?"

Blaine saw the conflict in Kurt's eyes, and knew exactly what he was going to say. "Sure, but Kurt, don't feel pressured to tell me anything. Please, you don't have to tell me anything at all."

"I want to, I need to. But not here." Kurt was already standing up and grabbing his bag and coffee. The two exited the shop and walked back to Kurt's apartment.

Once inside Kurt led Blaine to the living room and motioned for the man to sit down while he grabbed some water from the kitchen. Soon he joined Blaine on the sofa and released a breath.

Kurt paused, and looked out the window in a contemplative mood. "So…where should I start?"

The other man looked concerned and grabbed his hand for a moment, giving it a light squeeze. "Kurt, you don't have to tell me anything. It's about your ex-boyfriend, isn't it?" When Kurt turned shocked and nodded hesitantly, Blaine continued. "Rachel and Jeff mentioned something about him, though they didn't say anything. Just that your former boyfriend really hurt you. But, as much as I'd like to know what happened, you don't have to tell me."

Letting out a shuddering breath, Kurt just shook his head. "No, I have to Blaine. I know you want more from this." He started motioning to between them" I know that whenever I pull away or reject your advances, and I admit that I do it consciously, I'm hurting you. And I don't want to hurt you. Hurting you is the last thing that I ever want to do. I really like you Blaine, but what he put me through made me quite reserved and hesitant when opening myself to others."

Blaine lent forward and put a hand on Kurt's knee offering support. Kurt took a shuddering breath and started talking.

"I met Chandler freshmen year of college. Jeff, Nic k knew him. Danny, Mila, Chandler and I used to be a tight group of friends. We were friends until end of sophomore year, when Chandler asked me out. I used to like him, and I was thrilled that he appeared to like me too. We dated for three and half years. He seemed like the perfect guy, always complimenting me; we had a lot in common. He wasn't into bars and PDA. The guys approved of him, Jeff and Nick knew him, but weren't as close to him as the rest. When I landed a part in a play, he was so supportive, telling me over and over again how proud he was of me, that I would conquer Broadway. He had the highest opinion in everything I did, he was my everything." Kurt wiped away a tear. It was hard for him to recall those days. After several moments of sniffling, all the while Blaine remaining silent and offering silent support, he continued. "Stories started showing in the media. I wasn't a star, yet, but I was well on the way. I had numerous auditions and part offers, my dream was starting to come true. One day I went out of the apartment I shared with Rachel – we moved in together during Junior year – and there were numerous cameras in the front of our building, demanding to talk to me. Not long after that I learned why the sudden interest in my life. I had just landed my first lead, so that was one factor. Main factor was that apparently someone was selling stories about me, most of them false, but some very true. Personal matters, things only close friends knew were suddenly exposed." Kurt looked away, while another fresh set of tears started falling.

Blaine shifted on the couch and opened his arms to Kurt, letting him fall into them and hugging him close. "It's okay Kurt. You don't have to tell me." While whispering comforting words in his friend's ear, all he could think about was that he rather not know who this Chandler guy is, because if he knew who the guy was, he would have to beat the crap out of him. Nobody messes with someone he loves and gets away with it. Kurt just shook his head and opened his mouth to speak again.

"During this time I shut everyone out: Rachel, Danny, Mila, Nick and Jeff. I became hesitant even towards my Dad, who is my rock. The only person I didn't shut off completely was Chandler. He seemed completely concerned about me. While with me he seemed outraged that somebody would do something like that. I hadn't even thought that he could be the one selling stories. I was so caught up with myself, I didn't notice the little changes in his attitude. Rachel tried to warn me, but I wouldn't listen to her. I once lashed out and accused her of doing that. I was stupid. I almost ruined out friendship. " he laughed bitterly. "I thought that shutting everyone else would stop the stories from surfacing. After a couple of months stories began showing that Chandler and I were engaged. He laughed at that, and so did I. The articles started becoming more personal, and details of my love life were being leaked. I started becoming suspicious and shutting chandler out too. We started arguing, he accusing me of not trusting him, telling me it was absurd that I didn't trust him, when we had been dating for over three years. After my fight with Rachel I had moved in with him. We were living together! So, I apologized, but it didn't stop my suspicions.

"All the media attention was getting to me, to the point that I thought about ending my career and pursuing something else. And I told Chandler about that. He got angry at me, told me that by doing that I would be letting them win, and that I was stronger then that. That I shouldn't be so weak, and so on." Kurt was now fully crying, whilst Blaine kept rubbing conforting circles on his back, trying to control his own growing anger. "The only person I had told about my insecurities was Chandler, thats how I found out that he was the one ruining my life all along."

The pale-skin male then got up to fetch a cup of tea before saying alout what Blaine already knew. "Rachel came to me with an article that claimed that sources heard me mentioning that I was going to pause my stage career. I remember running to Chandler and confronting him. After an intense argument, he finally admitted that he did do that. When I asked him why, do you know what he said?" Kurt laughed humorlessly, and seemed to force the words out of his mouth, "He told me he never loved me. That he knew I would be successful. That it was easy to be with me. That it was easy to make me believe that everyone was against me but him. And that he was right. In the months in which I was going to hell, that idot made thousands of dollars. And want to know what the worse thing is?"

Kurt glanced and Blaine, and Blaine merely shrugged, silently assuring the other boy he didn't have to say it. Kurt just continued. "The worse thing, is that even after all this time it still hurts as hell the fact that the one person I trusted and should be completely honest with me, the one person I loved, still affects my life." Kurt settled once again besides Blaine on the couch, nestling his head in his hands.

Blaine reached out and took his hand. "Kurt...no one deserves to go what you have gone through. You are so strong. Its okay to be upset about it, and it's not strange the fact that what he did still affects you. He was your only boyfriend, yes?" Kurt nodded "And you dated for more then three years?" Kurt nodded again. "You went through alot Kurt. And while he ended up being a douche, I'm sure there were moments in which you were ridicously happy. He was a huge part of your life. Don't beat yourself up." He breathed in and out slowly before wording his next words. "Kurt, I really like you, I do, but I understand that you are not ready for this yet. I will wait for when you are. You are amazing. You are so much better then him, Kurt. Hell, you are one of the most kind-hearted person I've ever met! And, just know that whenever you need it, I'm here for you, as a friend. And if you ever want more with me, I'll be glad to oblige. If you decide you don't want me, I'll still be your friend, and you can count on me for anything, ok?"

Kurt sniffled but smiled "Thank you for being understanding, Blaine. But, please, go out on dates, Blaine. I don't know when or if I'm ever going to be ready for commitment again, and I can't ask you to wait for me. And, if you find someone else, I'll be there for you, rooting all the way, ok? You are my friend, always."

The curly-haired star only nodded, not promising anything and opened his arms for a hug, which the other man happily leaned into. Blaine sighed, it felt so perfect. There was no way in hell that he would go out with others, for there was no one else for him but Kurt. He was in love with Kurt Hummel.
