"It's too hot here," Kurt complained as soon as they stepped off of the plane into the airport.
"Kurt, we are in an air conditioned airport," Blaine said, giggling.
"I can just tell it's hot. The air conditioning is literally blasting from all angles," Kurt said. Blaine had to attend a family reunion in Texas and Blaine's parents had been nice enough to let Kurt tag along.
"Let's just get our bags. The hotel has a pool and we can go for a swim if it's hot," Blaine said, getting on the escalator that led to baggage claim, Kurt following behind closely. They got to the bottom and continued on, but Blaine smashed into Kurt when he stopped short. "Brake lights next time, please?" Blaine asked, but Kurt didn't hear him. He was staring dreamily at a display of cowboy hats in a store under a big cheesy sign saying "Welcome to Houston."
"I want one! I want one now!" Kurt said excitedly.
"Kurt, that's a cheesy airport shop. We can get real cowboy hats later," Blaine said, grabbing Kurt's arm and trying to pull him away. Kurt grabbed both of Blaine's hands.
"Can I just try one on? I won't feel like I'm in Texas until I put on a cowboy hat," Kurt pleaded. Blaine sighed.
"As strange as that is, I don't see the harm…" Blaine didn't have time to finish his sentence because Kurt had yanked him in the direction of the store. Kurt picked up a white hat with a brown string and plopped it on his head. He then picked up a black one with a tan string and plopped it on Blaine's.
"Well, how do I look?" Kurt asked, spinning around.
"Like you belong in 'Brokeback Mountain,'" Blaine said, laughing. Kurt cleared his throat.
"Well, howdy partner," Kurt began in a thick, southern drawl, "You must be the finest looking thing this side of the Mississippi. I can't quit you." Kurt and Blaine both burst into a fit of giggles. Blaine put his hat back onto the rack.
"Come on, let's go check in at the hotel. We have our own room and we can continue this cowboy fantasy at a later time if you want," Blaine said, his words getting softer and softer and his hands sliding farther and farther down Kurt's back. Kurt smiled and put his hat back also.
"Well then let's go!" Kurt said, linking his fingers with Blaine's as they strolled out of the store to get their bags.
