AN: A little bit of an AU look at season 4 though it's close to the beginning. Hope you enjoy. Inspired by lyrics from "Say Goodbye" by S Club 7.
Finding an empty seat, Blaine sat down and looked out the window at the people on the platform. He searched the crowd for a sight of his boyfriend that he was leaving behind. It didn't take him long at all to spot the fur cap that Kurt was wearing - not many people were sporting them even in New York City. It was the same cap that Kurt had been wearing at the start of Michael Week back in January. The week that Sebastian had tried to blind Kurt with the rock salt Slushy that he had stepped in front of. It seemed like such a long time ago, just like the next time he would see Kurt seemed like such a long time away.
Kurt spotted him in the window and waved. Blaine waved back, swallowing hard to keep the tears in check.
He hated leaving the city without Kurt. Lima was going to seem so empty without him, but this was what was best for Kurt. As much as Blaine had enjoyed having his boyfriend in Lima with him, and helping out with Glee, he knew Kurt hadn't been completely happy. Kurt needed New York City for that, and Blaine had been determined to get him here and now that mission was accomplished. Kurt was in New York, sharing an apartment with Rachel, and playing piano for a Broadway musical. Blaine knew it was far from Kurt's dream of being on stage but this was a start.
Still, this had been the hardest good-bye that Blaine had ever faced. It was worse even then when Kurt had returned to McKinley so soon after they had finally gotten together. However, like then, Blaine knew that this was what Kurt truly wanted and so because he loved Kurt, Blaine needed to let him go. The two of them needed to fly on their own for a little while and then one day they would be able to be together again.
And Kurt would be here waiting for him, Blaine was sure of that now, because the two of them were meant to be together. Since the moment he had spotted Kurt, he had known that on some level. Though in a lot of ways they were like night and day, on some level the two of them just instinctually fit - as if they were twin flames.
As the train started moving forward, Blaine knew this good-bye was not forever, because not matter how long it took, he and Kurt were destined to be together one day - just not today.
