Blaine jumped at Kurt's shout. "WHAT? WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE WEDDING'S OFF? WHAT'S GOING ON, BLAINE? WHERE ARE YOU?" He jerked the phone away from his ear and stared at it, then rubbed a hand over his face as he tried to decide how to explain everything he was feeling. Blaine waited to speak until Kurt had finished yelling.
"Kurt, calm down please. I know we have a lot to talk about and we will. I just wanted to let you know that I'm at Sebastian's house and I'll be home in a few hours. I want to make sure that he's okay." He cringed as he waited for what his fiancé was going to say, and when Kurt spoke again his voice was soft this time.
"Are you really telling me this on the morning of our wedding? We've been together for 5 years, Blaine! Now you're saying that you don't want to marry me? You're the one who proposed!" Kurt reminded him, which made Blaine sigh because it was true. He listened as the other man kept yelling and after a few minutes, finally spoke up.
"Kurt -" Blaine was cut off by the sound of movement from the couch and Sebastian throwing up and cursing. "Look, I have to go. We'll talk later, Sebastian needs me." He hung up before Kurt could reply, and quickly grabbed Sebastian's arm and dragged him to the bathroom, making the other man lean over the toilet so that he could continue getting sick.
"You're okay," he said as he rubbed Sebastian's back. Sebastian was sick for several more minutes and then finally collapsed on the floor and sighed. "Do you think you're done getting sick for now?" Blaine asked, and let out a relieved sound when Sebastian shrugged and then nodded. "Okay, you stay here and I'll go clean the living room and the trash can. Yell if you need me and I'll come and help you," Blaine told him.
When Sebastian nodded again, Blaine quickly left the bathroom and went to clean up the living room. He finished half an hour later and went back into the bathroom to check on Sebastian, and was relieved to find the other man asleep on the floor. After several moments of hesitation, Blaine woke Sebastian up and helped him into the shower. "You need a shower. You smell like puke," he told the other man.
Sebastian nodded. "Help me, Killer. I won't even make any crude remarks. Just stay nearby so that I don't drown." When Blaine nodded, Sebastian let the shorter man undress him and didn't even crack one remark about his nudity. Several moments later, Sebastian got into the shower with Blaine's help. "I think I'm gonna be sick again," he said and puked again.
Blaine groaned and then quickly stripped down out of his own clothes. "If you say a word about this to anyone, I'll kick your ass, got it?" He asked Sebastian as he got into the shower and cleaned the puke, and then helped his friend stay upright and shower. Blaine winced when the other man laughed and held onto him tightly.
"I wouldn't dream of it, Killer. Besides, who would believe me? You're the Golden Boy. No one would believe you would get naked with me, not to take care of me, or for any fun reasons, either." Sebastian relaxed and started to feel better as the water rained down over both of them. "You know something, I think you've got the magic touch. I'm starting to feel better already."
Blaine finished helping Sebastian shower and before long, both of them got out and he got them some clothes to change into. After making sure everything was taken care of and cleaned, the two of them went and sat back down on the couch. Blaine turned on a movie and then looked at Sebastian. "I'm putting on a musical. And since I just cleaned your puke and gave you a shower, you don't get to bitch about it."
Sebastian gave Blaine a weak smirk. "I wouldn't dream of it. Wouldn't wanna piss you off, or you'd leave me alone and I can't have that." He laughed weakly when Blaine rolled his eyes and turned back to the movie, turning it loud enough to drown him out. "Make yourself comfortable, Killer.." He mumbled and relaxed beside Blaine, pleased to have the other man to himself without interruptions.
An hour passed and then Sebastian looked at Blaine and said, "So, what did Hummel say when you called him?" At Blaine's surprised look, he made a face. "I'm not stupid, I know you called Hummel and told him that you were with me. So, what did he say?" Sebastian couldn't keep the curiosity out of his voice. He tried to act calm, though he was dying to know Kurt's reaction to Blaine being here with him.
Blaine glared at his friend. "I told Kurt that the wedding's off and that he and I need to talk. He did a little shouting and then I told him that I had to go because you were getting sick. So, we didn't get to talk much. Needless to say, I'm sure he's pretty angry and I don't blame him. I can't help how I feel, though." Blaine said and looked worried.
It took everything in Sebastian not to start gloating, but he held it in. "Oh? You called the wedding off? Why? Is there someone else? I mean, really Blaine. Didn't you learn your lesson with that Eli guy? Kurt's gonna freak out on you, you know that right?" It was getting harder and harder with every word, to hide his happiness at the idea of Kurt and Blaine breaking up.
It wasn't that he wanted Blaine to be sad, hurt and alone. It was because Sebastian thought Blaine could do a hell of a lot better than Kurt Hummel and had told the other man so, many times before. He snapped out of his thoughts and turned back to Blaine when his friend looked angry and started to speak again.
"Yes, I called the wedding off. Don't act so surprised. You can't kiss someone or be kissed by someone and not feel anything. You just can't. I felt something when you kissed me, so I called the wedding off. As much as I hate the idea of hurting Kurt again, we shouldn't get married until I figure out what I want."
Blaine thought about Sebastian's other questions. "I don't know if there's someone else," he answered honestly. "I'm not sure how I feel about you, Sebastian. All I know is that half of the time I feel like strangling you, and the other half of the time, I'm really glad you're my friend. As for Eli, why did you have to bring him up? That was a mistake and Kurt and I have finally gotten past it. Yes, I know Kurt's gonna freak out on me and stop looking so gleeful that things are over between Kurt and I."
Sebastian held up his hands in surrender. "Don't bite my head off. It's not my fault that you can't resist how hot and awesome I am. If you had just given into me from the beginning and dumped Hummel sooner, you wouldn't be in this mess. Now, I can't wait to see the fallout from you and Ladyface not getting married," Sebastian said and smirked.
Blaine stayed with Sebastian for another hour and then when he was sure that his friend was feeling better, made an excuse so that he could leave and go home to Kurt. The problem was, Sebastian wasn't wrong. What was he going to do about Kurt? An even bigger problem was that when he had been taking care of Sebastian, it had been difficult for him not to look at the other man and imagine what it would like for them to be together.
As he got into his car and drove over to his and Kurt's place, he wondered what to do. It was official. He loved both Kurt and Sebastian. Blaine groaned. "This is going to get so much worse before it gets better." He said and then straightened his shoulders and got ready to face the music with Kurt. "Here goes nothing.."
