AN: So this was written a couple of days before "The Break-Up" aired (it was posted to my fanfiction facebook account before then too). It was a speculation piece but I was surprise with how close I got. Inspired by lyrics from "Silver Lining" by Amanda Ghost


Kurt looked down at the picture of him and Blaine on his phone. The two of them looked so happy. So in love. But after tonight he wondered if the picture only told a lie. Were the two of them really in love? Did Blaine really love him as much as he loved Blaine?

This wasn't the first time he had found himself questioning that and perhaps that was the problem. Should he have to question how much Blaine loved him?

But at least Blaine had been honest with him. Finding out that Blaine had gone on a date with Sebastian from Blaine instead of hearing it elsewhere was the silver lining in all this. At least the honesty was there. That was something that they could build on right? Nobody was perfect, after all he had spent weeks exchanging flirty emails with Chandler himself. He loved Blaine enough to give him another chance, didn't he?

Kurt believed that he did. He had spent his life looking for silver linings in all the bad things that life had dealt his way. Blaine was his ultimate silver lining. He wasn't giving up on that.

Reaching up, he wiped tears away. Just because he was willing to give him another chance didn't mean that what he had found out tonight didn't hurt. His heart needed to empty itself of the tears before it could begin the mending process.

He refused to stop believing in them though because he knew he could never say good-bye to Blaine. No matter what Blaine did, or how many times he broke his heart, Kurt knew that he was stuck and because he believed in happy endings he knew that their love would be on the other side of this rain cloud, shining as brightly as ever.
