Prompt: Robin Scherbatsky -"I've missed you. Not in a 'we're going to make out' way, not even in an 'I forgive you' way. Just in an 'I've missed you' way." - 'How I Met Your Mother'
Blaine stood looking down at the phone after ending the call with Kurt. He had given up hope of ever hearing from his former boyfriend who hadn't been returning his phone calls. Now, on Thanksgiving, right before Sectionals, he'd had a brief conversation with him. It truly did give him something to be thankful for this year.
Sure, it hadn't been a let's get back together call. Kurt hadn't even been able to tell him that he was forgiven but Kurt had called him. Kurt had admitted that he missed talking to him and that was a victory in of itself because if he missed him then on some level Kurt still cared about him.
Finally putting the phone away, Blaine returned to where the others were waiting to take the stage with a lighter heart. He was still a long way from where he wanted to be with Kurt but the two of them had taken a step forward and that was enough for now. Given how badly he had screwed up, things weren't going to be fixed overnight, but at least progress had been made.
