Kurt and Blaine wandered through the mall, hand in hand. The problem was, neither of them had any money on them that they were willing to spend, both saving for when they live together in New York. They decided that window shopping was a potentially good idea, but they quickly found out that they were wrong. "Can we go in there?" Kurt asked Blaine excitedly.

"No. You're going to want to buy something," Blaine replied.

"But they're having a sale!" Kurt complained.

"I can see that they're having a sale, but you already have almost everything from their spring line, which is what's on sale in the first place!"

"Can I get just one pair of shoes?"

"No!"

"Just one shoe? A shoe lace?" Kurt begged.

Blaine laughed. "Kurt, you have a problem," he said. He led Kurt to a bench in front of a toy store.

"Sit right here and I'll go get us some ice cream."

"Can I have sprinkles?" Kurt asked.

"Sprinkles cost extra," Blaine replied sadly.

Kurt slumped down on the bench and Blaine left for the ice cream stand.

A few minutes later, Blaine returned with two cones, but found an empty bench.

Kurt emerged from the toy store carting a small bag.

"Kurt, what did you buy?" Blaine asked.

Kurt jumped and hid the bag behind his back. He sighed. "Fine. It was supposed to be a present for you." He took one of the cones and handed the bag to Blaine.

Blaine pulled a tiny stuffed duck out of the bag. "It's adorable," Blaine cooed.

"I thought that Margaret Thatcher Dog might need a friend."

Blaine kissed Kurt on the lips. "You're so sweet. Thank you, she did seem lonely." They laced fingers and strolled on, eating their ice cream. "Do you want to go home?" Blaine asked.

"I thought you would never ask," Kurt replied. Blaine laughed. "This was a pretty terrible idea." They headed for the exit, only slightly poorer.
