Author's Note: I'm back! Okay, this chapter has some language in it. I don't like writing like that but I had the idea and now it won't leave me alone. I'm sorry.
"Here we are." I said pulling into an empty parking spot. "A mall? God Blaine you know me so well." Kurt laughed pulling me into a hug. I smiled and climbed out of the truck.
We walk into the mall and Kurt squealed. "Ah, this is so exciting!" Kurt said pulling me into J. Crew. I sat in a chair and watched him run around the store in pure delight. I didn't say a word about how long he was taking or anything. I let him dress me up like a doll. I carried his bags and watched him be just so happy.
"I'm gonna run down to the sports store and get foam wrap. I'll be right back." I said. "I'll be around here." Kurt smiled.
I walked back from the sporting goods store to find Kurt sitting on a bench drinking a smoothie. "What's up babe?" I asked sitting next to him. "Nothing, but I have a surprise for you." he smiled.
"Is it that smoothie?" I grinned. "Ha, you wish." Kurt laughed. "Pleeaaseee." I whined. "Fine." he sighed holding the drink out to me. I leaned over and sucked on the straw. "You seriously can't hold the cup for yourself?" he huffed. "Nope." I smiled. Kurt shoved me playfully.
"Alright it is now, 1:48 P.M. and is time for our next stop." I said getting up from the bench. Kurt and I walked back out to my pick up and tossed our stuff in behind our seats.
"So can I have my surprise?" I grinned. "Not yet." he sing-songed. I groaned and turned down a road. "Are we eating, I'm hungry." Kurt whined. "Yes." I laughed and pulled into a restaurant.
I walked over and opened Kurt's door for him. "Thank you sir." he smiled. "I love your smile." I flirted. "I love you." he smiled. I held the door open for Kurt and followed him to the restaurant.
It was small and dimly lit. A short blond girl led us to a back corner table, tossed the menus down and walked away without saying a word. "Well she's a happy camper." Kurt laughed.
I shrugged and ran my foot up Kurt's leg. I bit my lip as his eyes popped open in surprise. "Oh, so it's that kind of date." he flirted. I nodded and hooked my foot around his.
"What can I get for you?" the waitress said dryly. We ordered and continued to play footsie with each other till our food came.
"I like this." Kurt said. "I know, this foods really good." I nodded. "No, I mean being out with you." Kurt smiled. "Me too." I said kicking his foot softly.
"Can I get anything else for you?" she huffed. We shook out heads. She slammed the bill on the table and walked back to the counter. Kurt started reaching for his wallet. "Don't even think about it. This is a date and I'm paying." I insisted. Kurt sighed and put his wallet away.
We walked up to the counter and paid. "Have a great day." she said robotically.
As soon as Kurt and I were in the truck we burst out laughing. "What was her problem." Kurt laughed. "She looks like somebody shot her with a horse tranquilizer." I joked. "I don't get it." Kurt stopped. "Never mind. We have one more place to go." I said turning back onto the main road. Kurt didn't protest this time. He just held my hand across the seat and smiled at me.
I pulled into a parking lot and stopped the truck. "A park?" Kurt said looking out the window. I just nodded and walked around to open his door. I helped him climb out and we walked along the path that led into the park.
"Yes but first, ice cream." I smiled pointing to the small stand up ahead. "How did you know this was here." Kurt asked in amazement. "I do my research." I smiled.
We walked through that park laughing and sharing glances. We tossed our ice cream and continued to walk. I reached down and wrapped my hand around Kurt's.
"Blaine, what are you doing?" Kurt hissed. "This is a big enough park Kurt. We're not gonna get noticed." I insisted. Kurt frowned but squeezed my hand. I swung our hands back and forth smiling at Kurt out of the corner of my eyes.
"Hey a ball game." I exclaimed. I pulled Kurt over to the short fence. "Baseball seem to follow us where ever we freaking go." he huffed. "Fine no baseball. Its late, my mom will be worried if we're to late getting home." I said turning away.
The sun way getting low and the sky was turning orange. There was nobody around and Kurt and were still holding hands. I leaned over and pecked Kurt on the cheek. "Blaine not here." he hissed. "What there's nobody around." I shrugged.
"Hey." a voice shouted behind us. Kurt dropped my hand and walked quicker. But I turned around. "What?" I shouted. A boy maybe a little older than us dressed in a football jersey was stomping toward us. "Get the hell outa my park." he growled. "I may not be from here but I'm pretty sure parks are a public place." I said boldly crossing my arms over my chest.
"It may be but I don't like homos coming and freaking the place." he hissed. "Blaine lets go." Kurt shouted. "Better listen your boyfriend fag." he quipped. I flinched as the word rolled off his tongue. "What did you say to me?" I asked. "I think you had better just go now midget." The boy said curling his hand into a first. "No thanks." I smiled.
The boy's first collided with my chest and my breath left my body. "Now fag. Are you going to leave or do we need to continue this? Maybe next time it'll be your little friend that meets my first." he snarled. I couldn't get my breath to speak. I could feel Kurt grab my hand and pull me back toward the truck.
He tried to grab the keys from my hand but I wouldn't let them go. "No, I'm fine." I said tugging hard on the keys and climbing into the driver's side. Kurt stormed around the truck got in the passenger's side. I leaned my head back on the seat and reached in my pocket for my inhaler.
"Kurt where's my inhaler." I gasped. "It's in your pocket Blaine." he sighed. "No it's not Kurt. I can't breathe." I wheezed. "Shit." Kurt said. He opened my glove compartment and dug around. I raised my hands above my head and tried to take deep breaths.
"The ground. I had it in my other hand when we were walking. I dropped it when h-he hit me." I said starting out of the truck. "Let me get it B." Kurt said grabbing my arm. "No I'm not taking that chance." I said angrily.
I wrestled out of Kurt's grasp and ran back to the park where the guy hit me and looked around. I could see the metal bottle reflecting. I grabbed it and ran back to the truck.
I shook it then inhaled deeply. I gripped the steering wheel. Kurt ran his hand up and down my back. My breathing returned to normal and I slipped my keys into the ignition and started the truck.
"Are you alright Blaine?" Kurt whispered. "Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" I shrugged and drove onto the main road.
"You know why Blaine." he said softly. "Kurt I'm fine. That guys a fuckin' idiot and I couldn't care less about him." I quipped. Kurt sighed and grabbed my hand. "I love you Blaine." Kurt said pecking me on the cheek. "I love you too Kurt." I smiled sadly.
My hands were shaking really bad and tears rolled down my cheeks. I kept my mouth shut though. I knew if I was to speak I would lose it. Kurt was asleep next to me.
I kept my small sobs quiet. I could still hear that guy calling me a fag. The word stung so badly. It was bad enough hearing somebody say it to me in a dream but real life was so much worse.
I turned down a country road and sped up. I scooted over to let another car by and ran through a pot hole. Kurt's head smacked against the window and he turned and looked at me.
"Oh Blaine." Kurt gasped and leaned over to me when he saw my tears. "No Kurt. Don't start that. I'm fine." I said angrily. Kurt shrank back and rested his head on my shoulder. I kissed the top of his head and wiped my cheeks.
"We're home baby." I said running my fingers through Kurt's hair. He looked up at me with sad eyes. "It'll be alright baby. Let's just forget about that part of the night. Today was one of the best days of my life." I smiled placing a firm kiss on his lips. "Deal." Kurt whispered. We grabbed out stuff out of the back and tip-toes up stairs. We whispered 'I love yous' and went into our rooms.
I stripped off my shirt and looked in the mirror. I didn't have a bruise yet but I could tell I would have one by morning. I pulled on shorts and a hoodie and took out my contacts. I switched off my big light and was about to turn off my lamp when my door creaked open.
"What's up baby?" I asked sitting on my bed. "Nothing." he shrugged sitting next to me. "Then what's in that bag you're trying to hide?" I grinned reaching for it. "It's your surprise. I never got a chance to give it to you earlier." he smiled handing me the bag. I tore away the paper and shut my eyes. I could feel something soft in the bottom of the bag. I pulled it out and laughed when I opened my eyes.
It was a little brown Teddy Bear with a white ribbon tied around its neck. "You got me a bear?" I smiled. "Well yeah. It may not be as special as the one you had as a kid but its got meaning." Kurt shrugged. "It's more special than that one. This one came from the love of my life. And it has this awesome bow. So do explain the deep meaning of this bear." I laughed kissing him.
"Well it brown like your hair. Its eyes are blue like mine. But the bow is the most important. It's white like the flowers you gave me, white like my favorite t-shirt that I stole from you, white like the tennis shoes you gave me.
But then it's white because you're pure. Blaine you're the most perfect person I could have ever dreamed of meeting. I get to know that you're first time is going to be on our wedding night and that we'll have that forever. Until then, this ribbon can go where ever you want it to." Kurt smiled pulling the bow off the bear's neck.
I stared at it for a moment trying to decide what to do with it. Then I wrapped the ribbon around my wrist and reached out for Kurt to tie it. He carefully pulled the knot tight and smiled at me.
"I'm going to make a promise to you Kurt. The only time this ribbon is going to leave my wrist is when it's used in our wedding." I said seriously. "Perfect." he smiled kissing my nose. I stood up quickly and walked over to my closet.
I dug around in my junk drawer until I found what I needed. I grabbed a pair of scissors from my desk and walked back to my bed. I unrolled the spool of white ribbon and cut a section big enough to tie around Kurt's wrist I reached for his arm and tied it around his wrist the same as mine.
"Do you just randomly keep craft ribbon in your room?" Kurt laughed. "It was from a school project. But now we both have a white ribbon. It's white because you're perfectly pure to me Kurt." I said pulling him into a tight hug. "I love you Kurt." I whispered. "I love you too honey." he smiled. "Come get me if you need anything tonight." Kurt said walking out of the room.
