In the same AU of #343 because I miss my friend that lives far away… :(
(Blaine in the US and Kurt in Europe, they're an LDR couple.)
(Also, spot the CrissColfer and the Katy Perry references!)

Blaine wakes up too early, checking the time on his phone and pouting, frustrated when he realizes Kurt's not back from work yet.
He can't stay in bed, so he gets up to shower and do his hair- he always makes sure he looks as neat as possible when they Skype, although there has been times Kurt caught him unguarded, or when they… went places, to say the least.
His heart is beating too fast, pounding in his ribcage with anticipation, and he tries to calm it unsuccessfully, putting his face below the spray of hot water for a long while after he's already done washing up. He stays there until he hears his phone buzz from the next room (he's really not surprised he can hear it for that far away anymore. When every beep of it could mean Kurt, it's like his ears are fixated on every sound it makes) he jumps out, dries himself quickly and runs back to the bedroom, unlocking his phone to find a new message and smile.
From: My Prince
Morning, sweetie :* Skype in 10min?
To: My Prince
Hi! (heart) Of course. Waiting for you :)
He throws on a t-shirt and boxers and returns to the bathroom to gel his hair quickly; it could be done better if he had more time, or if his hands weren't shaking nervously.
Precisely ten minutes later, when he's properly dressed and gelled and waiting by his computer, a pop up appears on his screen, letting him know My Prince is video-calling him.
He answers, making sure he looks okay in the seconds before the call connects.
"Hi, honey," Kurt says with a grainy smile, his chin resting on his hand; behind him, the picture is almost completely dark.
"Hey," Blaine smiles, and sighs with inexplicable relief, looking at his missing puzzle piece and feeling a little bit more complete.
