AN: Inspired by lyrics from"1000 Miles" by Vanessa Carlton/Boyce Avenue
Sitting at a table alone Kurt wondered why he had let Rachel talk him into this again. Clubs had never been his scene. His experience with Blaine and Sebastian at Scandals was proof of that, and yet he kept letting people convince him to go. Kept telling himself that this time would be different. That this time he would enjoy himself.
Apparently this wasn't that time. Rachel was on the dance floor handing all over Brody. Carl, a classmate from NYADA, was flirting with two co-eds at the bar. Rachel's friend Marissa was currently on stage signing Karaoke. Given how off key Marissa was currently signing apparently she had gotten alcohol somehow.
Which left him at the table alone, looking around the sea of people that he didn't know. His left hand was idly swirling his straw around the diet coke he had ordered, which probably only made him look more bored.
~If only Blaine was here,~ Kurt thought wistfully, watching another couple sway slowly on the dance floor despite the songs fast tempo. Apparently the two were too lost in themselves to notice anything around them.
But Blaine wasn't here. The two of them weren't even dating though they were talking to one another again. Blaine was the only one that had been able to put him at ease in situations like this. The only one able to pull him out of his comfort zone. The one person who had always made him feel special with his words.
If only things weren't so messed up. If only he could go back to when he first moved to New York and handle things differently. Not get so wrapped up in everything here in the city that he pushed Blaine aside. Blaine might have been the one who cheated, but Kurt knew he wasn't totally blameless himself.
Pulling out his phone, he glanced down at the screen, scrolling through his contact list. Seeing the familiar name and number, he contemplated calling him. Wondering if perhaps Blaine was thinking of him too, tonight.
