Yes, I am alive! The main reason that this chapter is so much later than anticipated and the main reason is that I got a job. I have been job hunting all summer and it has finally paid off. However, this means I do not have as much time on a daily basis to write. But, I will continue to try my best to update as quick as possible. Also, thanks for all the positive feedback this story has got! I love you guys so much!
Thanks for all the reviews!

The boys sat in silence for a few minutes while the news sank in.
"Your dad called you," Kurt finally said.
"Yeah."
"Well, are you going to call him back?"
"Hell no."
"Blaine-"
"No Kurt. He is the one who blackmailed you. He is the reason I was so mad when you left. He treated you like dirt. He lied to me."
"You can't shut him out of your life."
"I can try."
Kurt grabbed Blaine's hand.
"Then don't call for him. Do it for you. Holding all those negative emotions will just end up hurting you more."
"Fine. I'll call him tomorrow."
"So you can conveniently forget to?"
"Maybe."
Kurt leaned in and gave Blaine a soft kiss.
"Call now. I'll wait."
"I don't want you to be late. So I promise to call if you go ahead without me."
"You don't want me here when you call?"
"The issues I have with my dad have been around for a lot longer then the last few months you have been in my life. I want you here but I know I need to have this conversation on my own."
"Just know I am so proud of you," Kurt said as he left the room to give Blaine some privacy.
Blaine waited a few more minutes before having the courage to call his father back. He started to shake a little as he waited for his dad to answer his call.
"Hello Son," Jim Anderson said when he picked up the call.
"Hi Dad. I saw you called."
"Yes, I wanted to talk to you. Do you have time?"
"A little bit so talk fast."
"I understand that you are angry at me."
"Angry? Try pissed off."
"I know I made a mistake."
"A mistake? You blackmailed Kurt. You are part of the reason he was so scared to tell me who he was. If it wasn't for you we could of worked things out in a better way."
"Really Blaine? If Kurt told you the truth you have just accepted it and your life would be perfect?"
"Maybe yes, maybe no but at least Kurt would have been the one to tell me instead of being attacked by the paparazzi."
"I was saving you?"
"From what?"
"Kurt and his lifestyle."
"Oh my god! Being gay is not a lifestyle and sabotaging my relationship with Kurt was not going to make me straight."
"I didn't mean that. Give me a little bit of credit. I mean that he is in the spotlight. If he was an average person you wouldn't of gotten attacked by the paparazzi in the first place. Don't you get it? If you want to be with him you have to be ready for that level of media scrutiny. Why do you think I tried to get you to go to an Ivy League school for business or law instead of performing arts?"
"Because you hate that I'm gay and want to control my future," Blaine said sarcastically.
"No. Blaine I want your dreams to come true and for you to make it big. But I get scared when I think of all the young people who become famous and end in some scandal or hurt because they can't handle the pressure. And I have accepted the fact that you are gay but there is still a long way to go until this country, as a whole is more open and accepting. The thought of you getting hurt or worse for just walking down the street holding hands with the man you love scares the hell out of me."
Blaine felt his eyes tearing up. Could it be true? Could the actions Blaine thought his father did out of hatred, were done out of fear of losing his son?
"Th-that doesn't excuse everything you did."
"I know. I'm not calling to ask for forgiveness. I just wanted you to understand because I don't want my son to hate me."
Blaine smiled.
"I could never hate you."
"And I could never hate you."
Blaine heard his dad have a small laugh.
"We still have a lot to talk about," Blaine said.
"Yes we do. I hope you come home sometime so I can talk to Kurt as well."
"Of course I am coming home."
"Well, you were so angry at me I thought I had lost you."
"You can be just as dramatic as me," Blaine said with a laugh, "Of course I'm coming hime, In January I have to go back to Dalton."
"What about your future?"
"It's with Kurt."
"I mean college. Are you still going to New York?"
Blaine paused for a second. He hadn't thought about how this new development in his life would influence his post-high school plans.
"Oh. Well, I hadn't given it much thought yet. I'll have to talk to Kurt."
"Well, whatever you decide your mother and I will support you."
Blaine felt the tears finally push through and roll down his cheeks.
"You have no idea how long I've waited to hear you say that."
"I'm sorry it took so long for me to say it."
"Look Dad, I want to work things out and a simple phone conversation isn't going to do that but I have to go to this event thing."
"Of course. Are you having fun in Denmark?"
"I'm having an amazing time."
"Good. Well I guess this is goodbye for now."
"More like see you later."
"Well than, see you later Blaine."
"See ya Dad."
Blaine ended the call and for the first time in a long time he smiled after a conversation with his dad.
Blaine hurried down the staircase. He hoped that Sean or someone else could drive him to the event he was now past-fashionably late for. He was shocked to see everyone (Burt, Carole, Finn, Rachel and Kurt) still standing by the front doors.
"Kurt? What are you still doing here?"
"Waiting for you."
"But the animal shelter event-"
"Can't start without us."
"I made you late."
"So."
Blaine smiled as Kurt kissed him.
"Did you actually think I was leaving without you?"
"Okay love birds, we are all here so how about we head out. We do have to show up sometime," Burt said in an amused manner.
"How was the talk with your dad," Kurt asked as the group headed out.
"Really good. I want to work things out with him."
"Of course you do. He is your dad."
"How are you so understanding?"
"I love you so it's pretty easy," Kurt said with a smile as the two boys got in the car.
When the car pulled up to the shelter Blaine was not surprised to see all the cameras and media personnel there. He was starting to get used to it. As he made his way through the crowd with Kurt all the journalists wanted the inside scoop.
"Blaine, could I talk to you for just a minute…"
"Would you like to get your story out to the people…"
"Blaine, do you want to say hi to anyone back home…"
"Blaine, over here…"
Kurt grabbed Blaine's hand and hurried him inside while everyone followed him. Once inside Blaine felt like he could relax. He saw the staff standing out front along with someone who looked like a reporter.
"It's okay. He is more of a legitimate journalist," Kurt whispered as the man walked up to the couple.
"My name is August Lund and I was told I could ask Kurt as few quick questions before the grand opening."
Kurt nodded as the others went to meet the shelter workers.
"So Kurt, how are you feeling about your upcoming coronation."
Kurt smiled.
"I feel like I am ready. I know my behavior in the past has caused some to question my maturity level but I hope that since my return I have showed them that I do take this situation and the title of king seriously."
"Well, I know of a lot of people who have seen a change in you. What do you think caused this?"
"Well, there are a lot of things. My time at Dalton helped show me how to act in a more responsible way but also I think the things my family was telling me finally sunk in."
"Very good. I know there are a lot of people waiting on you so I just have one last question. How do you think Blaine will—"
"I'm sorry to rudely interrupt but I am here to perform my ceremonial royal job not talk about my relationship."
"Of course. My apologies."
Kurt watched as the reporter got up and walked out. Kurt felt a hand in his shoulder.
"You okay," Blaine asked.
"Yes."
"You sure? At the end you seemed kind of upset."
"I promise I'm fine."
"Well, they are ready for you."
"Blaine, promise me you will not talk to any press."
"Sure. They still kind of scare me."
Kurt laughed as he wrapped his arms around Blaine.
"We could sneak out the back."
"Well, I think it would look suspicious is the press saw you walk in but then you suddenly disappeared. They might think I kidnapped you."
"Why do you have to be so rational all the time? Be spontaneous."
"I will try to be on our date tomorrow. Besides now is a bad time to leave."
"Because I'm here for work."
"Because I really want to play with the puppies."
Kurt smiled and looked at Blaine with eyes full of love.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
Finn walked over to the pair.
"Look, I'm really happy you two are so in love and all but could we possibly get the show on the road? I would like to get home sometime before midnight."
"Why, will you turn back into a pumpkin," Kurt teased.
"Not funny," Finn mumbled even though he had a smile on his face.
Blaine held out his hand.
"The public awaits."
Kurt took his boyfriends hand and walked back out to face the press.
The owner of the shelter quickly greeted and thanked the press and public for showing up. She introduced the royal family and their guests. Blaine saw Rachel roll her eyes at the word guests.
"I've been with Finn for years. You would think they could actually learn my name," Rachel whispered in Blaine's ear as they stood off to the side.
Blaine tried to hold back his laugh as Kurt started to talk.
"Thank you all for coming out today and I apologize for my tardiness. We are here for a very important reason-to save a life. With the upgrades and remodel of the animal welfare shelter more and more homeless animals will have a chance to find a new home. The most important thing is making sure that we as humans do all that we can to protect and help the animals that are not just pets but are a family member that brings us so much joy. I am overjoyed to be here for this great cause. So after the doors are open please take a look at all the animals looking for a home. Even if you can't adopt today please ask any staff member what you can do to help them in forms of donations or volunteer help. Thank you again for coming and I hope everyone has a fun and enjoyable night."
Everyone clapped and moved inside as the doors opened.
"That was perfect Kurt," Burt praised his son.
"I believe you won some critiques over tonight," Carole commented.
Kurt smiled. He was proud of himself. He hadn't felt this way in a long time.
"So now we should head back inside," Burt said as Blaine and Rachel made their way through the crowd of people and to where Kurt gave his speech.
"How was it," Kurt asked as Blaine pulled him into a hug.
"Amazing. You are such a good public speaker."
"I've had a lot of practice over the years. So do you want to go see those puppies?"
"Hell yes."
Blaine had wanted to walk with Kurt down the rows of kennels to look at the dogs but as soon as they were back inside it seemed Burt, Kurt and Finn were being called to in every direction. Blaine wondered around the shelter by himself for a while. This gave him time to think.
'You have to share him with the world,' Blaine reminded himself as he saw a small husky puppy.
"Hi there. You are so cute little fella."
One of the staff members walked up to him.
"Would you like to hold him?"
"Oh, I can't adopt."
The worker smiled.
"That's fine."
"Sure, I'd love to hold him."
She unlocked the cage and handed the puppy to Blaine.
"He is very laidback for being so young."
Blaine did not notice someone taking his picture as he held the husky. But he did notice when a man stepped in his way.
"Oh excuse me," Blaine said as he went to walk around the stranger.
"Blaine wait. I would love to talk to you."
Blaine suddenly stopped.
"Do I know you?"
"I'm August L-"
"You're that reporter that talked to Kurt."
"Yes. I was just wanting to ask you a few questions."
"Oh, I am not supposed to talk to the press."
"Letting Kurt and his family control you?"
"What? No. They have been nothing but wonderful to me."
"So there isn't anything that has upset you since you arrived? Anyone?"
"Besides you? No. No one. Know if you will excuse me I need to make sure this little guy finds a good home."
Blaine turned and quickly walked away. He needed to find Kurt. It ended up not being to difficult to locate his boyfriend. He saw him talking to a large group of people.
"Blaine. Over here!"
Blaine smiled as Kurt yelled to get his attention.
"Well hello cutie. And Kurt your boyfriend is pretty cute too," a girl said.
Blaine was confused until he felt the puppy move in his hands.
"Yes. If I had more concrete plans I would probably adopt him myself," Blaine joked.
"Wow Kurt, funny and handsome. You got a keeper," the girl said again.
"Blaine this is Alice. And well Alice you already know Blaine. Alice was one of the top contributors to the shelter's remodel fund. If it wasn't for her it could still be years before this project could happen."
"This is amazing. You really helped the community," Blaine said.
Alice smiled.
"Thank you. Well, I hate to come off as rude but if you are not going to adopt that adorable husky could I possible hold him."
"Of course. I was just carrying him around and seeing if I could find him a home. I think you two would be a great fit."
Blaine handed the puppy over to Alice.
"However, I do hope all of you don't mind if I steal Kurt away for a minute."
"Go ahead. We were just finishing our conversation," Alice said as the group started to disperse.
"Are you enjoying yourself," Kurt asked.
"Of course but I have to talk to you."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing major. A reporter tried to talk to me."
Kurt sighed.
"I was scared someone would."
"I've been able to dodge most of them but that guy that was talking to you earlier approached me."
"What did he want?"
"I'm not sure. I told him I wasn't talking to the press and walked away."
"Besides that how has your night been?"
"I've been with you so amazing."
Kurt's heart swelled as he looked at his boyfriend.
"I've never been with someone like you," Kurt said.
"Like me? You mean average?"
"No. I mean someone who is so special that they make me feel good about myself, and not just in a superficial sense. I can't get over how much I love you."
"I love you too. I will never get tired of saying that. Also, just out of curiosity how long will you have to be here?"
"I don't think to much longer. I said my speech and most the press is now focusing on my dad and the shelter itself. I've taken lots of pictures with the animals. I should be able to sneak out soon. Why? Are you ready to go?"
"No rush. I was just wondering."
"Is everything okay. You just seem a little off. Is something bothering you?"
"It's nothing but I guess I have been felling a little weird tonight."
"Are you okay? Was someone else bothering you? Are you feeling sick?"
Blaine saw concerned look in Kurt's eyes and felt guilty about making him worry.
"I didn't mean it like that. I'm not ill or anything. It's stupid."
"Blaine, if something is bothering you it is not stupid."
Before Blaine could respond Burt made his way over to the boys.
"Kurt do you think you could come take a picture with Finn and me. The press wants one of all us."
"Now? Can it wait a few minutes? I'm in the middle in a conversation?"
"I wish. The press will be leaving within a half hour so they are now scrambling to get all the material they can for their news stories."
"Right, Yes, I'll be right over."
"We are up front. After these last few moments you should be able to go home soon."
Kurt gave Blaine an apologetic glance.
Blaine just smiled and pulled Kurt into a hug.
"I'm so sorry. I want us to talk about this," Kurt whispered.
"Maybe we could talk when we get back. I would like to talk to you in private anyway," Blaine whispered back.
Kurt kissed Blaine on the cheek and followed his dad. Blaine followed behind. Once he saw Carole and Rachel cooing over a group of kittens he headed in their direction.
"Hello ladies," Blaine said as walked up behind them.
"Blaine, I hope you are enjoying yourself," Carole said.
"Yes I am."
"Are you okay? You seem a little less peppy than earlier."
"I think I am just getting tired."
"Well we have had a long day."
"Carole, why are you not in the family photo with Finn, Burt and Kurt?"
Carole couldn't hold back a small laugh.
"I've been getting my photo taken all day. I am happy to have a break from the flashes."
Blaine laughed as Rachel grabbed his hand.
"That will be you and Kurt one day."
"I hope so," Blaine said truthfully.
As day started to turn to dusk the event wined down. Most of the press had packed up and left, most people had made an adoption or donation and the crowd was thinning. It wasn't long before the Blaine was walking with Kurt out to the car. Finn talked animatedly about all the people he had met and how excited he was for the shelter. Everyone joined in with stories from the event. But Kurt couldn't help and notice Blaine was unusually silent. When they got back Blaine hurried inside.
"Kurt is he okay," Rachel asked.
"He says he is fine. He did want to talk to me about something."
"He said he was tired," Carole said.
"Well could you imagine going through everything he has gone through the past week," Finn said, "It took me a long time to get used to this kind of lifestyle after Mom and Burt got together."
"Maybe his dad said something to him. Kurt did say he called Blaine right before we left," Rachel commented.
"I wonder how that conversation went," Finn questioned.
"He said it went really good. His dad wants to try to work things out between them," Kurt answered.
"I still don't trust him."
"Finn, Blaine can't stay mad at his dad forever."
"Well I still don't trust him."
"Look, I am not saying his dad acted in the right way-"
"Good, because he didn't," Finn said interrupting his brother.
"Finn, I am done with this conversation. Now, if you don't mind I am going to go find my boyfriend."
Kurt knew there was something bothering Blaine and he was determined to find out what it was. Kurt entered the palace and was about to take off up the stairs when Sean saw him.
"Blaine is not up there."
"Where is he?"
"I saw him go down the hall. I'm not sure what room he went into."
"Thanks Sean."
"Wait how did the event go—"
Kurt ignored the question and ran down the hall. After searching every room he found Blaine in a room, Kurt wasn't even sure what the room was for, staring out the window.
"Enjoying the view," Kurt asked as he stepped inside.
"This country is amazing."
"Thank you. So do you want to talk?"
"I thought it over and I think I was just over-reacting."
"DON'T DO THAT!"
Blaine jumped and turned to face Kurt. He had never heard Kurt yell like that. Kurt marched right up to Blaine.
"Promise me you will never down play your feelings because you think they are insignificant. I just had hours of pointless conversations. I love you and I don't want to think you have to keep things bottled up because they are not as important."
"I promise."
"Good. So, what is on your mind? I promise no family members are going to interrupt us this time."
"It's embarrassing."
Kurt gently took Blaine's hand.
"You know you can tell me anything. I would never make fun of you."
Blaine looked into Kurt's eyes and saw nothing but love and concern.
"You promise not to laugh."
"Of course."
"I think that I'm getting homesick."
"Oh Blaine, there is nothing wrong with that. I was horribly homesick when I was at Dalton. I just hid it well. Did talking to your dad make you miss home?"
Blaine nodded.
"Kurt, you know my history with my dad. I never thought he would be the person to make me miss Ohio but talking to him and having a real conversation about my life and didn't end with him judging me, it was amazing."
Kurt couldn't help but smile.
"I really hope that you and your dad can have a closer relationship. You deserve that."
"I love it here. Being with you and your family and Rachel has been beyond words can describe. But, I am starting to miss my family too."
"Did you really think that I would be mad or not understand you missing your friends and family. Hell, I was back for less than a day and missed the Warblers, especially you—and Jeff."
Blaine laughed.
"Jeff is a great person. And I didn't think you would be mad at me I just didn't want you to think I wasn't grateful for all you and your family has done for me."
"I would never think that," Kurt said kissing his boyfriend's neck.
"Like I said it was stupid."
"Missing anyone is not stupid. Besides, I guess we have to start talking about when you are going to go back home."
Blaine let out a deep sigh.
"Yeah, I guess so. I wish I didn't have to leave but I at least have to finish Dalton."
"Of course and you are going to go to New York in the fall."
Blaine laughed.
"Let's not get carried away. I haven't even heard back from NYU or any school for that matter."
"Well, you are going to get in. I just know it. Plus, with my boyfriend in New York that will give me an excuse to travel there almost anytime I want."
"Kurt, do you think we could manage a long distance relationship?"
"Of course we can."
"Well, I was thinking that I could put college off for a couple years. Lots of people do that. And I could come back here in the summer and live with you."
"Please don't do that. Wait, that came out so wrong. What I meant to say was don't put your life plans on hold for me. You were so excited to go to New York."
"That was before I met the one person I want to be with for the rest of my life."
Kurt smiled.
"I love you and that is why you have to promise me that if you get accepted, which you will, into any college in New York that you will go. Please, for me?"
"Well, if you insist."
"I do."
Kurt and Blaine shared a laugh.
"Kurt, before we go back in for the night I need to tell you something," Blaine said in a serious manner.
"Sounds serious."
"The reporter you talked to before the event started he found me when I was walking around the shelter."
"Did he say anything to you?"
"He asked if I would talk to him and I said no and he made this comment about letting you and your family control me and if I upset anyone since I got here. I know you would never try to control me but I just want to hear you say it. The reason you want to keep me out the press is to protect me, right?"
"Of course. I have no idea what that reporter was trying to do but Blaine, my family would never want you to feel like you don't have a voice."
"Trust me. I don't think that. Besides I don't want to have my words twisted in any way. But, is there someone who is upset with me being here? I ran into Sebastian and he wants to talk to me tomorrow. Should I be worried?"
Kurt let go of Blaine's hand and turned around.
"Kurt?"
"Sebastian is harmless. We will always be friends. Trust me, he only puts up his bad boy act for his father."
Blaine stood up and wrapped his arms around Kurt's waist.
"But you are worried about someone else. I can tell. Is it Sebastian's dad?"
Kurt nodded.
"I get the guy is kinda scary but I don't care if he doesn't like me. I'm staying with you."
"You don't know him. Sebastian's dad will do anything to get what he wants and what he wants is for Sebastian and I to be together. He made my dad make a deal with him to trade Sebastian coming to Ohio for my hand in marriage to Sebastian. My dad would never agree to anything like that. Axel Smythe is ruthless. He doesn't care about who he hurts as long as he wins. He was the one who sent the paparazzi to Dalton and almost destroyed our relationship once. What's not to say he won't try again?"
"He can try anything he wants. I will never let him come between us."
'Never say never,' Kurt thought.
"You know I think we've talked about enough serious issues for one night. How about we go to bed and the next thing you know we will be getting ready for our big date tomorrow," Blaine said turning Kurt around so they were face-to-face.
"I love that idea. I can't wait to show you off."
Blaine and Kurt woke up bright and early the next day. Both were excited to finally have some real couple time together and go on their date. However, Blaine knew he had to have his talk with Sebastian first. It seemed like the rest of the family was off to a slow start. When Blaine got down to the dining hall he was surprised to find only Kurt in the room.
"Hey Sweetie," Blaine said before giving Kurt a kiss.
"I missed you last night," Kurt said.
"I was down the hall."
"I know. So I guess we are the only ones up early today."
"Well we were out pretty late last night."
"So, how does breakfast in bed sound."
"But we are up already."
Kurt smirked.
"Then we could go back to my bed."
Blaine felt his face go red.
"Go to your room? For breakfast?"
Kurt put his arms around Blaine's neck and pulled his boyfriend close. He then whispered in Blaine's ear.
"Of course for breakfast. What else could we do in my room during the morning hours?"
Before Blaine had a chance to respond the boys heard someone pounding on the front door.
"OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR," Someone yelled.
"Who's that," Blaine asked as the staff hurried to the door.
Kurt just shrugged his shoulders as they followed everyone else. They were met with Burt, Carole and Finn as they hurried down the stairs.
"Who could possibly be here this early," Finn said still in his pajamas.
"I have a guess," Burt mumbled as a furious Axel and tired Sebastian ran up to Burt.
"This is ALL YOUR FAULT," Axel yelled.
"Excuse me? You have no right to say-"
"No, I am talking. You should have thrown that American boy out the second he got here."
"Blaine. He has a name and it is Blaine," Burt said sticking up for his son's boyfriend.
"Whatever, it is still all his fault."
"What is my fault," Blaine asked.
"Blaine, let's go," Kurt started to say.
"No. Mr. Smythe is upset with me. I would like to know why."
Axel glared at Blaine and threw the newspaper in Blaine's face. The cover story was on the shelter event from the previous night. However the picture was not of Kurt or his family. It was of Blaine and the puppy he was playing with.
"Oh," Blaine said before scanning the article. While all the major information like how much the event raised, the highlight of Kurt's speech and who was in attendance was addressed in the article most of the writing was focused on Blaine.
"Oh? That is all you have to say? You hijacked an extremely important moment and made it all about yourself. You are not the royal here you are an average person using Kurt to get you in the limelight," Axel excused.
"What? No. I didn't do anything. I didn't even talk to the press."
"Look Blaine, if you want people to like you, don't make everything about you," Axel said.
Sebastian took the paper from Blaine and handed it back to his father. Burt then told Axel that either he talked in a civil manner or he could leave. Axel made his way with Burt to his office to let him continue to rant without verbally attacking Blaine to his face. Finn and Carole followed the two to keep things under control.
"Blaine, I need to speak to you since we didn't yesterday. Where could we talk with a little more privacy?"
Kurt laughed.
"Please Sebastian, you know this place as good as I do."
"Well, I'm trying something new called being polite."
"Let's go into one of the extra rooms," Kurt said.
"Well, I was hoping to get to talk to Blaine alone."
"I don't know Sebastian. We are friends but you can be like your dad."
That comment caused a hurt look to cross over Sebastian's face.
"Kurt, how can I prove I'm different from my dad and am worthy of being your friend, if you don't give me a chance. Look Blainey and I am just going to have a quick talk."
Blaine spoke up.
"It's okay Kurt. I can handle this on my own."
"Fine, but if I don't get my boyfriend back in one piece, I know where to find you Seb," Kurt joked as he watched his boyfriend and ex walk down the corridor and into the same room Kurt and Blaine were in the previous night.
Once alone an awkward silence filled the room occupied by Blaine and Sebastian.
"I'm sorry about my dad. I tried to stop him but once he gets on a roll there is no hope."
"Sounds like my dad at times."
"Really?"
"Yeah but we have recently started to work on becoming closer."
"I always thought your life was perfect."
Blaine snorted.
"Just because I had friends at Dalton doesn't mean I was fully accepted at home. I spent the majority of my high school career thinking I was a disappointment in my father's eyes."
"Well I guess we have some things in common. But I don't think my dad will ever be interested in actual caring about me."
"People can surprise you. You're not a bad guy Sebastian. Burt and everyone might say you brought the worst out of Kurt but I don't believe that anymore. Besides, I think Kurt brought the best out of you."
"So you don't care that I'm still friends with Kurt?"
"Of course not. I would never tell Kurt who he can or can't be friends with. Besides you two are always going to be close. At lease I hope you do. As friends you two connect really well. Not so much as boyfriends. And I'm not just saying that because I'm Kurt's boyfriend now."
Sebastian and Blaine laughed.
"So what did you want to talk about," Blaine asked.
"I just wanted to clear the air. My dad might want me to keep the bad boy image for the public but you can tell that's not who I am. Besides, my dad already cost me someone I care about."
"Maybe you two will find your way back to each other."
"I don't think so. Dave has moved on to someone else. Someone who treats him right. I tried to talk to him but he doesn't want anything to do with me."
"Well, then he is not the one for you. When you find someone who loves you for your flaws, and that includes family, then that is when you know you have someone special."
"Thanks Blaine. Just promise me one thing."
"Sure."
"Don't hurt Kurt. I know don't have room to talk because everyone knows I have dome my share involving breaking his heart but with you it is different. Just promise you will not intentionally hurt him."
"I would never do that. I promise."
"Good. Well I guess that we have kept Kurt anxious enough."
And with that Sebastian left the room.
Kurt was pacing in front of the door. He couldn't hear anything.
'That means there is no yelling, or one of them is dead,' Kurt thought as Sebastian walked out.
"Where's Blaine?"
"You don't want to know."
Kurt lightly hit Sebastian's chest.
"Seb!"
"He's still in there, in one piece and unharmed. You got yourself a good guy."
"Thanks. I know."
"I'll talk to you later Kurt. And you know Blaine has to go back home sometime. If you ever feel lonely-"
"SEB,"
"I would be happy to fly Blaine here for a day or two. What did you think I was going to say?"
Kurt just shook his head as Sebastian walked off. Kurt then saw Blaine leaning against the opposite wall.
"So no boy fights over little old me," Kurt teased.
"Not today. I know you are disappointed."
"I'll live."
"Is his dad still here?"
"He stormed out a bit ago. I'm guessing he wanted dad to side with him and since my dad is not insane he told him no."
"Why does he hate me? What did I do?"
"Nothing. You did nothing. Don't try to figure out Axel Smythe. I've been trying to do that for years."
"Well, I guess now that everyone is up breakfast in bed is out of the question."
"I'm afraid so. But we do have our date to look forward to."
Kurt placed kisses all over Blaine's face.
"I. Can't. Wait."
I know I promised the Klaine date in this chapter but I felt like it has already been to long since the last update! I will try my hardest to get the next chapter up soon. It might be on the shorter side so it should be up soon. Thanks everyone for sticking with me!
Thanks for reading and please review!
Next chapter: Kurt takes Blaine on a date.
