A/N: Another collab between Claire and I, mostly because I have no time to write because of school so we just kinda help each other :P

Rating: G/K

"Kurt?" Blaine asked hesitantly, knocking at the open door to his room. "Kurt, are you busy?"

Kurt sighed, rolling his eyes. "When am I not busy?" he asked, slightly annoyed at the interruption, but shoving his script away anyway, tired of trying to remember it, sick of writing hints and tips to himself in the margins. It was getting too much. Far, far too much.

"Oh..." Blaine said, disappointed. "I'm sorry, I'll just go..." he said, turning away, looking like a kicked puppy.

"Blaine? Blaine, come back." Kurt said softly, getting up. "I'm sorry." He told him, giving him a close hug in apology. Kurt sighed, resting his head against Blaine's shoulder.

"I'm sorry I'm so busy all the time. I just took on too much extra stuff this semester – "

"Like the play?" Blaine interjected, smiling slightly.

"Like the play, and I just don't have a lot of extra time." Kurt sighed, burrowing into his embrace.

"That's why I'm here." Blaine told him.

"Oh?" Kurt asked, leaning back so he could see his face.

"I'm taking you out for the afternoon." Blaine said, trying to hide his enthusiasm. Kurt had been so busy that Blaine was beginning to miss him - they barely spent time together anymore.

"Blaine-" Kurt started, pleased, but knowing he wouldn't be able to, especially with his workload. "I..I can't." He sighed. "I have rehearsal this afternoon-"

"Which I've already asked about, and they don't mind if you skip today's practice." Blaine interjected, quickly continuing when Kurt looked unconvinced. "Come on Kurt, you know the scene by heart - you know other people's lines just as well as your own. They don't need you."

"What about my assignment? It's due tomorrow!"

"Knowing you, it's probably been finished for a week, and you just need to do a final edit."

Kurt smiled at that.

"And the other two assignments I have due this week, plus the lines I still have to learn, and I'm so tired."

Blaine took Kurt's face in his hands, kissing him gently.

"Tell me truthfully, how close to finished are those assignments?"

Kurt blushed, refusing to make eye contact.

"They just need to be edited..." he admitted in a mumble.

"What if I compromise? Can you give me just an hour of your schedule?" Blaine asked pleadingly. He knew Kurt needed a break, even if he refused to admit it to himself. Kurt bit his lip, thinking it through.

"Stop thinking so hard! Relax. The world will keep turning without you. Give me an hour." Blaine pleaded.

"Okay." He sighed finally. "Okay, you have an hour." Kurt agreed with a smile, hugging him again.

"Come on then." Blaine said, taking his hand and tugging him out of the dorm room, waiting patiently as he locked the door behind him.

Before too long they were comfortably curled up in Blaine's room, a movie playing quietly on Blaine's laptop.

Blaine could feel how tense Kurt was, even as he pretended to relax. He just knew that even as he lay next to Blaine, Kurt was running through everything he needed to do that afternoon in his head, and how long he would need to stay up to compensate for the lost hour. Blaine pulled him closer, kissing the top of his head.

"Relax." He whispered.

Kurt sighed.

"I am trying." He almost whined.

"I know. It'd be better if you could just relax." Blaine said, tugging him closer, moving his hands up Kurt's back, gently rubbing the tension out of his muscles. Kurt sighed, his body going limp.

"Mmm." He mumbled, his eyes fluttering closed as he clung to Blaine's neck. "Feels nice."

"Shh." Blaine soothed, kissing his cheek. "Go to sleep."

Kurt opened his mouth to protest, and Blaine cut him off.

"I'll wake you when time is up, okay?"

^.^

True to his word, Blaine woke him up an hour later.

"I want more sleep." Kurt whispered against his neck, and Blaine chuckled."I just...I don't want to go back. It's too much. There's so much to do and it's just so-"

Blaine cut him off with a kiss, slowly and forcefully. Kurt practically melted into it, giving a soft little sigh of contentment.

"We have a week and a half left. Then we're done. Then we can spend each day lying together and not having to worry."

"Yeah, until our college apps have to be in."

Blaine kissed him again. "Hush."

Kurt lay in silence for fifteen minutes as Blaine stroked his back gently, before he got up, insisting that he really had to get back to work. Blaine waved him off with a grin, watching the obvious bounce in Kurt's step.

Left to his thoughts, Kurt smiled. He felt better than he had in a long time. It was amazing what spending time with Blaine could do. He thought fondly. He really should do it more often. Blaine always made him feel better.

A/N: This is actually an accurate description of everything that was going on this week. I had Drama night tonight which was amazing. Haha. Annnyway, new Glee soon! I have a few special chapters planned :D
