Blaine chewed on his lip nervously. "What's taking them so long?" Blaine asked Kurt. The two boys were sitting in Blaine's family's doctor's office waiting for Blaine to get his flu shot. Blaine had sat with Kurt through all twenty kicking and screaming minutes of his flu shot (not something Kurt was particularly proud of, but this was about 20 minutes shorter than the ordeal the year before), so Kurt thought it would be only nice to go with Blaine to his. Today, the doctor's office was teaming with little kids with colds and old ladies with walkers and orthopedic boots.
"They're just busy today," Kurt replied. "Are you nervous?" Kurt asked.
"What would make you think that?" Blaine asked.
"Well, your voice is shaking and your palms are sweaty," Kurt said. Blaine sighed.
"I'm not much better with needles than you are, actually," Blaine said. Just then, a nurse came into the waiting room.
"Blaine?" she asked. Blaine sighed and stood up and Kurt followed. They were led back to a room and Blaine hopped up onto the table and shrugged off his jacket. As soon as the nurse pulled out the alcohol swab, Kurt saw Blaine's eyes widen and reached for his hand. Blaine gratefully took it. "Alright sweetie, this will be over in a second," the nurse said. Blaine took a deep breath and Kurt turned his head away, but kept a firm grip on Blaine's hand. The nurse put the needle in and surprisingly Kurt felt Blaine's grip loosen, but his entire body weight fall onto his shoulder. He gasped when he had seen that Blaine had fainted! "Oh dear, this happens all the time," the nurse said, helping Blaine lie down, getting an ice pack and placing it on Blaine's forehead. A few seconds later, he came to.
"Is it over?" Blaine asked.
"Yeah, it's over. You gave us quite a scare," Kurt said.
"Sorry. I told you I'm bad at this," Blaine said, sitting up, but leaning on Kurt's shoulder. The nurse handed Blaine a cup of water.
"You're all set. Just maybe Kurt should drive home," the nurse said, handing both boys lollipops. Blaine popped his in his mouth and they walked slowly out to the car.
"Thank you for coming with me," Blaine said. Kurt pulled the lollipop out of Blaine's mouth and gave him a kiss.
"You're welcome," Kurt said. He examined Blaine's pained expression once more. "Do you want to get ice cream?" Kurt asked.
"That would be wonderful actually," Blaine replied. Kurt smiled as he drove off to find his brave boyfriend some ice cream.
