Happy 200! Thanks for reading and making me want to write 200 of these!
"Remind me how we got suckered into this?" Kurt asked.
"Because Carole is nice and lets me eat and sleep here whenever I want to," Blaine replied. Blaine had volunteered himself and Kurt to organize a rather hopeless-looking corner of the Hudson-Hummels' basement.
"Then you should have bought her flowers," Kurt said unhappily.
"Kurt, if we both get to work, it'll take us maybe an hour."
Kurt groaned and threw a box off of the top of the pile and started to go through it.
Blaine took another box off of the top and put it on the ground, revealing what was actually underneath. "Um, Kurt, why do you own a coffin?" Blaine asked. As Blaine examined it further, he saw that it was clearly plastic, and the inside was lined with cushy purple fabric.
"I used to be really into Halloween. We used to do this big, haunted display with the whole neighborhood. I somehow ended up with the coffin," Kurt replied. He finished sorting through his box, which had contained a few old lamps. "I'm going to go get a drink. Do you want anything?" Kurt asked.
"Just water, please," Blaine replied.
Kurt scampered upstairs.
Once Blaine heard the pitter-patter of Kurt's feet in the area he presumed to be the kitchen and then the water running, he had an evil idea. He climbed into the plastic coffin and shut it on top of himself, leaving a little crack so he could see and wouldn't be too claustrophobic.
Kurt came back down the stairs and looked around. "Blaine? Where did you go?" he asked.
Blaine threw the lid off of the coffin and lunged towards Kurt, yelling.
Kurt jumped about four feet in the air, but then started laughing. "I should have known," he laughed. He held his hand out to help Blaine out of the coffin. "Now that you're back from the dead, let's finish up," Kurt said. He kissed his boyfriend.
"Can we do that Halloween display next year?" Blaine asked.
Kurt smiled and kissed Blaine again. "I would love that," he replied. They smiled and finished up, playing with all of the weird things they were finding.
