"Left! Right! Space! Turn! Shift! Left! Left!"

"…Blaine…what are you doing?"

For a split second, Blaine's fingers froze, but just as quickly, they started back up at an alarming eyes narrowed as he stared at the screen.

"Wait." Was the only thing he said, and Kurt raised an eyebrow, stepping up behind him.

"Tetris?" Kurt asked, but Blaine was concentrating.

The seconds ticked down and Blaine was winning, but only by a line or two. His posture got stiffer, his fingers moving faster.

Finally, the game ended and Blaine had won.

"Yes, Tetris." Blaine grinned, spinning around in his chair to face Kurt.

"Where'd the sudden tetris appreciation come from?"

Blaine shrugged. "Someone sent me an invite on facebook and I was hooked."

Kurt laughed. "Right, well dinner's ready."

"Yeah, give me a sec."

Kurt paused.

"One more game!"

^.^

When Blaine said he was hooked, Kurt didn't realise the full extent, or the absolute truth behind his words.

'One more game's' became four games later, and Blaine didn't end up going to bed until dawn somes nights – and only because Kurt threatened to shut off his compter.

Thankfully, they were on holidays.

But Kurt was starting to get worried.

They were walking down to the Lima Bean one morning when Blaine frowned.

"What's wrong?" Kurt asked softly, noticing how Blaine stiffened beside him.

Blaine chuckled. "Nothing, it's stupid."

Kurt smiled and took his hand. "Nothing's stupid. Tell me."

"Well…it's like I'm…seeing in blocks." He laughed.

"…What?"

"I can see the little tetris blocks everywhere…it's like it's haunting me…"

"Maybe you should stop playing…"

"No! Nick and Jeff are both on level twenty – I'm on eighteen. I'll beat them soon!"

Kurt chewed his lower lip before sighing. "Alright."

^.^

The next night really made Kurt worry.

He was woken up by a small cry of alarm, and his eyes shot open to Blaine sitting up in bed, wringing his hands together.

"Babe?" Kurt mumbled, sitting up and grabbing at his shoulder sleepily. "What's going on."

"…fuck…Kurt…"

"What's wrong?"

"I…ugh…I had a nightmare."

Kurt yawned again and sat up, coaxing Blaine to lie back down on his chest.

"Tell me about it."

Blaine rubbed his face into Kurt's chest with a sigh.

"No…it's stupid."

Kurt chuckled. "Remember, nothing's stupid."

"No…this one really is stupid."

"Tell me anyway." Kurt stroked his hair gently and he sighed.

"I was…in a tetris map – and I was really tiny. There were blocks falling around me, and you were playing…but you didn't know how, and I was stuck in a gap between the blocks and you didn't know how to get me out…"

Kurt was glad Blaine couldn't see his face, because honestly, that was stupid.

"Kurt…you have to learn."

"What?"

"I need to teach you how to play Tetris."

"…Why…?"

"So you can save me next time."

"Blaine, it was a dream." Kurt groaned. "And it's five-thirty."

"Please?" Blaine snuggled up closer. "I don't like having nightmares."

Kurt sighed. "Fine. But later. I'm going back to bed."

Blaine grinned triumphantly, wrapping Kurt in his arms and settling back to sleep.

^.^

"Okay, so the aim is to clear the lines, and the way you do that is you make the line whole…"

Kurt sighed, his fingers resting on the keyboard.

"Each block of shapes can be turned so it'll fit."

"How about I just play, and you can tell me if I'm doing things wrong?" Kurt grinned. "I've watched you enough."

"Alright."

Blaine sat next to him as Kurt started up the game. As he played, Blaine resisted the urge to point out wrong moves, or things he could've done better. It was hard, but he managed to do so for the two whole minutes.

"How'd I do?" Kurt asked.

Blaine grinned proudly. "You won." He laughed. "Now that you know how to play, I might actually survive in my dreams."

Kurt shrugged. "I always knew how to play, it was just…having to play that irked me."

Blaine laughed, grabbing his hand. "Time for breakfast?"

Kurt faltered.

"One more game…?"


A/N: I started playing, and then she started playing, and now if we're not writing, we're playing XD We got a challenge - 160 by Sunday Night. We're going to try - if we get to 155 tonight, then we'll definitely make it, but if we don't then it'll be really close. I've got to go out tonight and nobody knows what the hell is happening Sunday, so we'll see how it plays out.
