Blaine, Burt and Finn hollered at the TV as the Patriots scored another touchdown. All three men were donned in Packers gear. Kurt was sitting in a chair next to them, donning a Packers jersey that Blaine had forced over his head, texting Mercedes about something completely unrelated. "Why does our team have to suck?" Finn asked.
"Because that's the way sports usually work," Blaine answered. The TV cut to a commercial.
"Is it over yet?" Kurt asked.
"It's only halftime, bud," Burt said. Kurt groaned.
"Let's make this a little interesting for you. Let's make a bet," Blaine said, scooting onto Kurt's lap. "We'll bet on the Packers and you bet on the Pats."
"What do I get if I win?" Kurt asked.
"Winner has to carry the loser's books at school for a week," Blaine said. Kurt and Blaine shook hands.
"It's a bet. Wait, which ones are the Patriots, the white or the green?" Kurt asked.
"The white ones, Kurt," Blaine said, laughing. Blaine thought he had just gotten out of carrying his heavy economics textbook for an entire week when the Packers scored fourteen points in under two minutes. But with less than a minute to go, the Patriots scored enough points to win the game by one point. Blaine put his head in his hands.
"Well I guess your heavy economics book will have some friends this week, Blainers," Kurt said, patting Blaine's shoulder. Blaine looked up at Kurt with real hatred in his eyes. Kurt's smirk turned quickly to a terrified, wild look and he bolted away, Blaine hot on his heels. Blaine finally caught up with him once Kurt had locked himself safely in his closet. "I've never understood men and football, but I think I might like this sport," Kurt said through the door. Blaine could only laugh. Kurt eventually gained the courage to join Blaine outside of the confines of his closet and snuggle with him while Blaine rattled off football trivia.
