Ending 1 - Kurtbastian


Chapter Twenty Eight

Being back at school was a welcome change for Kurt, and it took him just a few weeks of being back and staying the night at Sebastian's multiple times a week because it was closer to NYADA for him to finally agree that he should move in with him.

So on a weekend, they called Rachel, Dani, and Elliott to help with moving him into Sebastian's apartment and Kurt was surprised when Rachel showed up with Jesse St. James of all people.

He'd gotten together with Rachel a few times for coffee or lunch since returning to the city, but she had never mentioned Jesse, and when asked about her living arrangements just mentioned getting an apartment of her own. Admittedly, Kurt had been busy with Sebastian and with getting back to the rhythm of school and once more being at the offices to have time to really figure out what Rachel was up to.

Jesse shook Kurt's hand. "I've been telling Rachel for months that she should tell everyone about me. It's nice to see you again, Kurt."

"Yeah," Kurt said, "shocking but I suppose nice."

Kurt didn't know why he hated the idea of Jesse St. James and Rachel being together, but he put it off as shock.

Rachel introduced Jesse to Sebastian, Elliott, and Dani, and Elliott broke the silence afterwards by picking up one of Kurt's boxes.

"Well, let's get this done."

"Are you okay?" Sebastian asked when they were out of earshot.

Rachel was showing Jesse around the loft and Kurt followed them with his eyes. She looked happy. He couldn't begrudge that not to mention that he couldn't be mad that she was dating someone they had considered the competition when he was happily moving in with Sebastian Smythe.

"It was easy to see her with Sam. I don't know maybe it was knowing that it wasn't going to go anywhere, you know? But, oh gosh, she and Jesse have so much history and I might argue that he was as bad if not worse than you back then."

Sebastian pulled him into his arms in a lose embrace, "I changed," he said.

"I know," Kurt said, "and maybe I'm just being stupid or I'm making this about Finn. I don't know, but she looks happy right?"

"Yeah," Sebastian said.

Kurt swallowed, "then I can be happy for her."

Sebastian kissed him and only pulled back when Elliott threw a pair of socks at them.

"Hey, now, moving time!" he yelled.

By the time they were done moving Kurt in, they were all exhausted and Kurt saw Elliott sprawl himself out on the kitchen floor so that they all had to walk over him or around him to get anything from the kitchen like water.

"Do you guys want to order some food?" Dani asked, "I'm starving."

Kurt who was in the middle of moving his boxes according to labels and post-its looked up and grinned. "Yes, I agree. Food."

"Cool," Dani said.

"Pizza," Elliott said from the floor.

Dani rolled her eyes. "If you get off the floor maybe."

When they all left, after helping Kurt do some unpacking and Elliott and Dani trying to restart the band up with encouragement from Sebastian, Kurt just collapsed on the couch.

"If it wasn't for my fear of wrinkles I would just go to bed right now," Kurt said.

Sebastian laughed and he sat down next to him. "I'm really happy you're here."

"Me too," Kurt said, "I think we can really make this work."

He leaned into Sebastian and breathed him in for a moment before he pulled away. "Come on, help me fill up our closet and maybe I'll reward you for it."

"I hope that reward can happen in the shower," Sebastian said.

Kurt kissed him quickly. "That could be arranged. In fact, I don't think we've done that great of a job of using every surface in this place yet."

Sebastian groaned. "Kurt, you can't say things like that."

Kurt just laughed and he walked in the direction of the bedroom. Sebastian was much better at inviting Kurt into his space than Kurt had ever been when it came to him and Blaine. He'd gone through the trouble of making space in his closet and wardrobe, and even removed some of his belongs from one side of the room so that Kurt could add his own personal items. Even the bathroom he'd cleaned up so Kurt had space for his face products.

It made Kurt feel like it was all just going to work out. In a way it was surprising that Sebastian was so good at being his boyfriend and his friend when until recently Sebastian hadn't even had very many friends and he'd definitely never had a boyfriend before.

They made quick work of putting Kurt's clothes away even while Sebastian kept trying to distract Kurt by kissing him or grabbing him from behind. When it was all done, Kurt was the one that wrapped his arms around Sebastian's neck to kiss him.

"Well, this I like," Sebastian said between kisses and Kurt laughed.

They fell into the bed together and Kurt lost himself to Sebastian who was peppering kisses down his neck and opening the buttons on his shirt so he could keep kissing him. He pulled Sebastian's face up and met his eyes

"I love you so much," he whispered.

Sebastian kissed him, and when he pulled back he sat up and smiled. "I love you too."


A Few Months Later

The first time that Kurt ran into Blaine, he was waiting for Sebastian to get out of class in a coffee shop near NYU. Blaine rushed inside, holding a stack of books and looked a bit flustered.

"Blaine," he said, "do you want to set those down?"

Blaine glanced at him and sighed. "Yes," he said, "and I'll just go—" he pointed towards the line.

Kurt nodded and he watched Blaine as he walked up to the line, pulling out his phone. Elliott and Rachel had both run into Blaine and hung out with him, but Kurt had been hesitant to try and spend time with him mostly because he wanted to give Blaine the time to move on and he didn't want to rub his relationship with Sebastian in his face.

Blaine returned and Kurt motioned for him to sit down.

"If you have time, that is," he added, "you don't have a class to run off to or anything."

Blaine hesitated for a moment and then he shook his head and sat down. "I just have a lot of homework, honestly," he said, "but I have time for coffee."

Kurt nodded. "How, um, how have you been?"

"Alright," Blaine said, "actually, a lot better. I've done a lot of thinking and I made my peace with it. We were over a long time ago. Probably the night you broke up with me in that restaurant. Kurt, we fought a lot. I mean, it was more than just bickering or not being able to see eye to eye. And I couldn't handle the pressures of NYADA and every time I thought I had it, it fell apart again. I was jealous of how well you were doing and just a little bit sad and so sure that I wasn't enough for you."

"Oh, Blaine," Kurt said.

Blaine shook his head and he took a breath before he took a sip of his coffee, staring at the cup. "I, um, I thought that if we got married everything would be easier. That we would work through it or something. I don't know. Anyway, I'm not happy things went the way they did but I think it went that way for a reason."

It was easy to listen to Blaine just talk and know that Blaine wasn't blaming him or even blaming himself for everything that had gone wrong and Kurt could see the possibility of friendship there and one day they would laugh about how epic they had seen their love.

"For what it's worth," Kurt said, "I did go back to Lima for you. But, I think I was doing it for the wrong reasons. I was so upset right after the restaurant and then therapy just brought that back and I was in denial over my feelings about it. I mean, I loved you so much and it wasn't something I could turn off. I kept thinking that if we could be together again that it was something that would fix it, that it would make all the pain and all the hurt go away. The thing is, Sebastian made all of that go away. At first he was a distraction and he was so strangely understanding and helpful and so different. I'm still a little bit amazed about how he just made me better. He just, he made me realize that I didn't need to keep clutching to the past and to you to be happy and it also made me admit to myself that he made me happy and that I love him."

Blaine was smiling at him and Kurt was surprised at the easy acceptance there.

"What?" he asked.

Blaine took a sip of his coffee. "You talk about him like he's your world."

"He is," Kurt said honestly, "and one day you'll find someone that makes you that happy the way that I couldn't."

"I hope so," Blaine said.

"Friends," Kurt said.

Blaine nodded quickly. "Yeah," he said, "I'd like that, and I really am happy for you, Kurt. But if he hurts you…"

"Thank you."

When he got the text from Sebastian that he was out of class a few minutes later, Kurt told him to meet him at the coffee shop. Blaine was in the middle of telling him a story about one of his professors.

"She's crazy," Blaine said, "and not in a good way. I might just drop that class. But of course Elliott thinks she's fabulous."

Kurt laughed. "Has he taken her?"

"No," Blaine said, "I think he judges on how well dressed they are."

"That's why he's my friend," Kurt said.

When Sebastian arrived, Kurt could tell that he was surprised to see Blaine there, but he approached them anyway and smirked as he extended his hand out to Blaine to shake before he sat down and wrapped an arm around Kurt's arm.

"So, how do we know Blaine?" he asked.

Kurt burst into laughter. "You're an idiot," he said.

Blaine across from them laughed.

"Sorry," Sebastian said, "but have I ever mentioned that I was totally checking you out that day?"

"Who, me?"

Sebastian rolled his eyes. "Yes, you, I just didn't think you'd be the effort. Or that I could persuade you."

"Well, trust you to be wrong about most things," Kurt said.

Blaine was watching them and he had a curious look on his face that Kurt couldn't decipher.

"Anyway," Kurt said, "ran into Blaine, clearly, and we've officially cleared the air."

"So, does that mean I can offer a threesome?"

Kurt gasped and hit his shoulder hard. "Bas! Incorrigible!"

"Joking," Sebastian said with a roll of his eyes.

"No thanks," Blaine offered and laughed.

"Change of subject," Kurt said quickly, "so I heard from Sam earlier today. Turns out that Spring Break is the same week as Regionals. I was already considering going to visit, but this is even more of a reason."

Blaine perked up quickly. "Well, I'll definitely be there," he said, "my mom wants to introduce me to someone and I really hope it's not like a re-introduction to Puck. I'm not positive, but I think she gave him her number at the wedding. I also wanted to check in on the glee club."

"Sebastian?" Kurt asked.

"Yeah, yeah, as if you could keep me away from you for too long."

Kurt clapped his hands. "I'm so excited."

They hadn't gone back to Ohio since the semester started mostly because they couldn't afford to miss class and because nothing crazy had happened to make them want to go back. Burt and Carole had definitely visited them, though, while staying in Washington. It was just a lengthy train ride away but they'd managed the trip easily.


It was strangely nice to be back in Ohio and in the auditorium in McKinley even though it wasn't even his school or his glee club that was rehearsing for their next competition. Sebastian just couldn't help but feel like the school and the glee club were a part of his life because they were a part of Kurt and he couldn't help but smile as he watched his boyfriend talking to the New Direction and helping them better their performance while Mr. Shuester gave pointers to others.

"He looks happy."

Sebastian almost jumped, but he turned and found Sue standing there in her usual tracksuit.

"He is happy," Sebastian said.

"I'm not admitting that he and Blaine wouldn't have been happy," Sue said, "but I will give you that you and Porcelain make an intriguing pair."

"Well, it's a good thing you're not the one that has a say in any of it."

"Sure," Sue said and she sat down.

Sebastian was confused at her presence. He hadn't thought that he would ever need to see Sue again after everything that went down, but he was clearly wrong.

"So," he said, "what are you doing here?"

"Messing with Will," she said and shrugged before she stood up and left.

Sebastian shook his head. He would never understand that woman. He focused his attention back on the stage and found Kurt laughing with the twins and a couple of the Warblers. Noticing that they had all stopped really practicing he got up and walked towards the stage.

"Now, what could be so funny?" he asked.

"Nothing," Kurt said with a grin and Sebastian knew it had probably been about him.

The days leading up the competition had Kurt spending a lot of time at McKinley helping out which meant that Sebastian tagged along and after the first day, he started helping too. Kurt through all the ballet and dance classes that he'd been required to take at NYADA easily showed them all how to do the steps choreographed by Mr. Shuester correctly. Sebastian who was a bit rusty with his dancing skills tried to help out as well and somehow he even ended up helping them come up with a set list.

By the time the competition was upon them, he was as invested in them winning as Kurt was and Kurt easily made fun of him for it.

"You like them," he said as they took their seats the day of the competition.

"I do not," Sebastian said.

Kurt laughed. "Yeah, you do. It's sweet."

Then he leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. "I know you did it for me, but I know you enjoyed it too and I just – thank you."

Sebastian rolled his eyes. "I would do almost anything to spend time with you."

"I love you too."

Watching them win and watching how excited and happy they were up on stage made Sebastian tear up a little.

"Oh, I'm so happy for them," Kurt said, "they deserve it so much."

"Yeah they do," Sebastian said and he wrapped an arm around Kurt's shoulder, still looking over the crowd to the stage where the New Directions were still hugging and jumping around as they passed the trophy around.

Kurt leaned into him. "It's such an amazing feeling," he whispered.

"Winning?"

"Knowing that I made a difference in their lives," Kurt said, "because that's what it's about, you know? Making a difference, inspiring someone. I always thought that performing and everything was about the fame and the love of the craft but I'm starting to learn just how much it's about being able to touch someone and make them see the world differently and them up there, they're so inspiring to me."

Sebastian kissed the top of Kurt's head. "You're amazing," he whispered.


Author's Note: So this chapter happened as mostly a way to move time along...and it was also written before the finale aired so I ended up having them go to Regionals instead of Nationals. But when you consider the timing of spring break it makes more sense...

I also really wanted to show some sort of closure for Kurt and Blaine...and there will be more Blaine in the next two chapters. Thanks for reading.
