Alexander

By the time the meeting was over everyone had noticed how Blaine acting around Kurt, but Kurt was glad they kept their comments to themselves. Kurt walked over and grabbed his I-pod and then took Blaine's hand again. "Do you want to go have a movie night?" He asked Blaine who was smiling at him, slightly leaning against Kurt's shoulder.

They walked out of the common room and headed down the long marble floored hallway to the other end towards the stairs.  

Kurt heard someone call his name and come running down the hallway. Kurt sighed and ran his free hand through his hair. He really didn't want to do anything other than spend time with Blaine.

"Kurt..." Someone said stepping in front of him and Blaine.

Kurt looked the boy standing in front of them over, he had what Kurt guessed was suppose to be a charming smile on his face, with chocolate brown hair with a fringe that swept to the left side of his face and his amber eyes where narrowed slightly as he looked at Blaine. Kurt paused hoping that his anger wouldn't show itself tonight. "Hi...Alex..."

The boy snickered, his eyes sparkling, "Hi Kurt..." Alex chirped at him.

Kurt sighed. "What do you want Alex?"

Alex laughed again, "Walk with me?" He wrapped his arm around Kurt's shoulder and turned him away from Blaine, causing their hands to separate.

Kurt heard the growl slip through as he spoke. "Please, you're too close for comfort..." Kurt removed Alex's arm from around his shoulders.

Alex looked at him and then frowned. "We have to finish the project remember?"

"I...wasn't Theo supposed to type it up? I thought we had it all worked out?" Kurt felt really frustrated now.

"Come on let's just go to the library and get it done..." Alex tried to put his arm around him again.

Kurt glared at him and moved out of arms length. "Give me a minute..." Kurt turned back around and came back over to Blaine; he was standing there with a sad look on his face. "Hey you..." Kurt took Blaine's hand. "I have to go finish that stupid paper..." Kurt suddenly realized why Blaine had done it all by himself. "But when I get back we will watch Harry Potter, okay?" Blaine nodded at him and Kurt pulled him into his arms.

Blaine wrapped his arms around Kurt's waist. He didn't want to let go. He sighed and released Kurt from the hug. "I'll see you later..." Kurt ran a finger down his cheek.

Alex grinned with a cheeky wink at Kurt when he came back over to him. "I didn't think I would see anyone ever touch him again..." Alex started walking towards the library.

"Do you know what happened to him?" Kurt didn't think anyone at the school did but he wasn't sure.

"Anderson used to follow Jeremiah and his friends around like a little puppy dog..." Alex laughed. "I guess Jeremiah got sick of it and broke his heart..."

Kurt felt his anger rise. "That's not what Blaine said..."

"You think he would tell you that he was acting like that?" Alex laughed again.

Kurt growled. "I don't believe a broken heart would make Blaine change his personality..."

Alex shrugged, "Don't know, maybe he doesn't take heart break well..." He had to add a laugh at the end.

Kurt felt like punching him, "He was fourteen, I'm sure he doesn't even know what real heart break is, not enough to make him change his personality anyways..." Kurt knew it was more than just a typical heart break.

"Maybe he got his cherry popped and then was mad Jeremiah didn't want him for a boyfriend?" Alex winked at Kurt again and had a smug look on his face.

Kurt growled and then stuffed his hands in his pockets when the urge to punch Alex became overwhelming.  "Stop talking..."

Alex shrugged with the smile still on his face. "You were the one that brought up what might have happened to him..."

Kurt growled again. "Well I shouldn't have...just drop it..."

"Alright, calm down...Jeez...why do you care so much anyways?" Alex asked, clearly showing his distaste for Blaine in his tone.

"Well why don't you like Blaine?" Kurt could still feel the growl roll out of his mouth with his words.

Alex stopped grinning, "He is a little know-it-all, and he is only popular around here because the Warbler's took pity on him..."

Kurt grabbed onto his sides as the laughter rocked his body. "Wow could you be any more jealous?"

This time Alex growled. "Let's just get this stupid paper done..." They walked to the library not saying anything else to each other.

Kurt pulled his cell phone out of his pocket and looked at the clock. It was already six, he had been here for an hour and a half, and he was getting more frustrated with Alex with every minute that ticked by. He kept trying to change what they had. Kurt had finally had enough. "You know what, do the paper how you want I don't care what grade we get..." He got up and tried to walk away.

Alex grabbed Kurt's arm and pulled him back down. "Your eyes are beautiful..." He told Kurt when he turned sideways in his chair looking at him.  

"Whatever..." Kurt tried to get up but Alex pushed his hands down on Kurt's thighs making it so he couldn't move.

Alex smiled at him, "So are you and Blaine a couple?" He was still putting pressure on Kurt's legs.

"Why do you care?" Kurt frowned trying to push his hands off his leg he was making it so the edge of the chair dug painfully into the back of his legs.

"Because I find you attractive..." Alex winked at Kurt again. "And I saw you in those skin-tight, painted on jeans during the weekend and I have to say it was rather mouth watering..."

"I...What?" Kurt shrieked. He knew he looked good in his jeans but didn't like hearing it come out of Alex's mouth.

Alex raised an eyebrow. "What you don't like compliments?"

"Not coming from you..." Kurt tried again to push his hands away.

"You could have any guy you wanted...you're so damn sexy, babe..." At this Alex leaned in and tried to kiss Kurt.

Kurt suddenly felt sick, he didn't even find Alex attractive and he was trying to kiss him and calling him babe. Kurt took a hold of Alex's shoulders and pushed with all he had in him and sent him toppling over backwards. "Don't you ever do that again..." Kurt felt his voice tremble slightly and he stormed out of the library.

Kurt practically ran all the way back to the dorms, when he opened the door Blaine's eyes grew wide at the sight of Kurt. "Hey you..." Kurt came over to Blaine and wrapped his arms around him. Kurt felt a book hit against his back as Blaine tightened his arms around him. "What are you reading?" Blaine let out a sigh blowing air against Kurt's neck. "Blaine, are you okay?" Kurt asked biting his lip. Blaine still hadn't said anything since Kurt came in.

"Did Alex ask about me?" Blaine mumbled.

Kurt sighed and ran his hand through the curls on back of Blaine's neck that had escaped the gel. "He was talking about you yes..."

Blaine moved back slightly and looked up at Kurt. "What did he say?"

Kurt shook his head. "It doesn't matter what he said I didn't believe him..." Kurt stroked Blaine's hair again when Blaine dropped his forehead so it was rested against Kurt's chest.

"Was it bad?" Blaine didn't really care what people said he knew none of them knew the truth but he was worried that Kurt might believe some of it.

"Blaine it doesn't matter what he said because I don't believe it..."

"Okay..." Blaine leaned back and looked up at him again. "I'm reading Harry Potter..." Blaine told him answering his earlier question.

Kurt chuckled. "Which one is it?" Blaine held the book up to his face. It was the fourth and Blaine was almost done with it. "We better go get some food..." Kurt said after remember what time it was.

Kurt held Blaine's hand all the way down to the cafeteria, the smell lofting out of the room when they got there actually made Kurt's mouth water he was hunger than he thought he was. Kurt let go of Blaine's hand and put a hand on his side ushering him in front of him. Kurt could feel eyes on them and guess it was because Blaine was actually letting Kurt touch him and wasn't freaking out. He was ghosting his fingers up and down Blaine's side when they reached to food. "That looks really good..."

Blaine smiled. "It is really good..." They were serving sautéed chicken breast in a fresh ground garlic and herb sauce topped with shredded parmesan cheese and they had the choice of either rice pilaf or mashed potatoes with mixed vegetables. Blaine got his food and headed to get his drink Kurt not far behind him. He could sense that people were watching them and he felt a little unnerved. The last person they saw Blaine close to, was Jere...Blaine shook his head, he refused to go there. He smiled when Kurt slipped his hand into his and led the way to their table where Nick and Jeff were already sitting.   

"There they are...Kurt is everything okay?" Nick asked when Blaine and Kurt sat down.

Kurt raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

Nick looked at Blaine and then to Jeff, he wasn't sure if he wanted to say anything. "Well Trent was in the library..."

"Yes everything is fine..." Kurt cut Nick off. He knew what Nick was going to ask about. He didn't tell Blaine about it and he didn't want him hearing if from Nick.

Blaine looked at Kurt he wanted to know what was going on. "Kurt..."

"Hey, everything is fine." Kurt squeezed Blaine's hand.

"So your audition song was really good." Jeff told Kurt trying to find a way to change the subject.

"Thanks..." Kurt smiled at him and then smiled at Blaine. He was eating his chicken he seemed to really like the taste of it. Kurt picked up his fork and cut off a piece of the chicken which was really tender and popped it into his mouth. He normally didn't like meat but he didn't mind eating chicken. It was really good, it even tasted better than it smelt.

Kurt listened as Nick and Jeff broke into a conversation about Wes and his gavel. He couldn't help but laugh about some of the things they were saying. He turned his attention on Blaine who was playing with his un-eaten mashed potato with his fork. He did seem to be paying attention to the conversation at all. "Hey...you...what's going on in that head?" Kurt started rubbing his fingers up and down Blaine's arm. Blaine looked up at him but his eyes seemed really distant, Kurt didn't like the look in his eyes, he wasn't here in the present with them. "Hey..." Kurt took Blaine's hand and squeezed. Nick and Jeff were both looking at Blaine now too.

"He does this a lot." Nick told Kurt.

Kurt shook his head. "Blaine...hey..."

Blaine's eyes finally came into focus and he saw Kurt staring at him worry full in his eyes. He dropped his gaze for a second and then looked back up at Kurt. Even though Blaine had told himself he wasn't going to go there his mind didn't listen to him. He had been thinking back to his freshmen year. He shook his head. "Sorry..."

Kurt squeezed his hand again. "Are you okay?"

"I think so..." Blaine licked his lips his mouth felt dry. He picked up his bottle of apple juice and gulped some down, the cold felt really good against the back of his throat.

Kurt looked into Blaine's eyes again; the honey brown seemed to be swirling into green tonight. He thought his own eyes were an interesting color but Blaine's hazel ones were fascinating to look at. He watched as Blaine's long eyelashes brushed against his cheeks as he closed his eyes and then fluttered them back open. He licked his lips again. "Hey, come on let's go watch some Harry Potter..." Kurt squeezed his hand and then stood up. "What are you two doing tonight?" Kurt asked Nick and Jeff as the four of them walked to dump their trays.

"Oh you know!" Nick smirked as he wrapped his arm around Jeff's waist.

Jeff pushed him away letting out a huff of air. "We are finishing the movie we didn't get to finish last night." He told Kurt still pushing Nick away from him with one hand. "He thinks just because he's cute that he'll get some..." Jeff smirked at Nick who was now pouting.

Kurt couldn't help but laugh at the two of them. "Have fun you two..." Kurt and Blaine said bye to them and headed for their room. Blaine was still really quiet. Kurt opened the door and motioned Blaine in first.

Blaine toed off his shoes and then climbed on the bed lying on his stomach. Kurt's song was still flowing through his head. He wanted to tell Kurt all about what had happened but he was afraid he would lose him. That Kurt would think less of him because of it. He could hear Kurt shuffling around getting the TV out so they could watch the movie. He felt so tired but he didn't want to go to sleep without spending time with Kurt.

Kurt was watching Blaine while he was setting up the TV. He seemed lost in thought again. "Blaine..." Kurt sat on the edge of the bed that Blaine was currently spread out on. "Are you upset about the song I sang you?" Kurt hadn't thought Blaine was upset about it earlier but now he wasn't so sure.

Blaine sat up so he was sitting on his knees facing Kurt. "Your song was beautiful Kurt...I'm not upset about it..." He took Kurt's hand. "Believe it or not but that's the first time I've had a boy sing a song to me..." Blaine ducked his head as he felt the blush creep onto his cheeks.

Kurt was grinning from ear to ear. He loved that he could make Blaine blush without really having to try. "I'm glad you liked it, I was nervous as hell..." Kurt chuckled. Blaine's head popped up so he was looking at Kurt again a curious expression on his face. "I thought that maybe you would think I was being pushy or something, since you said you didn't want...a relationship..."

Blaine sighed. "Kurt I really like you...and I never thought I would like someone as much as I like you... ever...and it kinda scares me..."

"Blaine you have nothing to be scared of with me...ever..." Kurt really hoped Blaine knew this. "I'll always be here for you no matter what!" Kurt pulled Blaine into his arms and shivered when he felt Blaine's warm breath on his neck. He ran his hand down Blaine's back and could feel as his muscles tightened but then relaxed. "Blaine, why'd you ask me earlier if Alex had talked about you?"

 "He used to be friends with him..."

Kurt was shocked Alex never said he was one of the friends. He had talked about Blaine like he had just been a distant observer. But Blaine had told him earlier that after the Warbler's accepted Blaine and made him the lead vocalist, that Jeremiah and his friends starting hanging out with him too...Kurt thought back to what Alex had said earlier. ‘Maybe he got his cherry popped and then was mad Jeremiah didn't want him for a boyfriend?' Had Blaine really lost his virginity to this guy? What is Blaine keeping to himself? Kurt sighed. "So you used to hang out with Alex?"

"Yeah..." Blaine snuggled against Kurt more. Kurt's warm body wasn't helping with not falling asleep. Blaine pushed himself away from Kurt. "Alex never liked me hanging around with all of them..."

"Yeah he made it clear that he was jealous of you today." Kurt couldn't help but laugh again.

"Jealous?" Blaine didn't know he was jealous of him.

"Yep...and I started laughing at him making him mad..." Kurt laughed again.

"Why did Nick ask if everything was alright?"

Kurt sighed. "Alex hit on me while we were in the library, tried to kiss me..." Kurt watched Blaine's face he looked upset. "Hey...I didn't let him kiss me...I think I have made it clear who I like..." Kurt lowered his head trying to catch Blaine's eyes.

Blaine nodded. "And you know I like you too..."

"That's all that matters right now, we will just take things slow okay?" Blaine nodded at him again and Kurt smiled.

Kurt got up and got his pillows and came back over to the bed, they got into their usual spots, but Blaine snuggled close to Kurt's side resting his head on his shoulder. Kurt pushed play on the controller and then rested his head on top of Blaine's.

Kurt yawned when the movie ended. Blaine was looking up at him with his eyes half closed. He looked so tired. "Hey you better go get a shower before you fall asleep."

Blaine nodded and then climbed off the bed. He grabbed his pajamas and headed into the bathroom, pushing the door shut with his foot he started unbuttoning his shirt, he tossed it on the floor and then slid his pants and underwear off, his foot got caught in the pant leg and he tripped. "Ouch...shit..." He had just managed to catch himself on the sink.

"Blaine, are you okay?" Kurt was at the door. He had heard a crashing noise and then Blaine swore. "Blaine..."

"I'm okay..." Blaine examined his wrist which had popped when he caught himself. Blaine came over to the door and opened it hiding himself behind it. He peeked around the door at Kurt. "See I'm okay..." Kurt looked really worried. "I'm just kinda clumsy when I'm tired..."

Kurt smiled when he saw Blaine's bare shoulder. "Blaine you're naked aren't you?" He watched Blaine blush and then start chewing on his bottom lip. "Don't worry. I won't peek, even if I really want too..." Kurt smirked at him. Blaine crinkled his nose up at him and then disappeared behind the closing door.

About fifteen minutes later Blaine came out with a towel in his hands. Kurt came over to him and ran a hand through his curls. "I really love your hair!" Kurt admitted to him as he watched the curls spring back when they slid through his fingers.

"You don't think my hair is too curly?" Blaine had been using gel his hair after getting teased constantly about it.

"Hell no...I love it..." Kurt continued to run his fingers through the curls.

Blaine leaned his head on Kurt's chest. It felt really good. He liked having his hair played with. He heard Kurt mumble something but he wasn't sure what he had said. "What?"

Kurt shook his head and stepped away from Blaine, he was glad he hadn't heard him because he didn't know how he would have reacted to it. "I should go get ready for bed..." Kurt ran his fingers down Blaine's cheek and then grabbed his things walking into the bathroom.

Blaine hung the towel on the back of the desk chair and then climbed into his bed. He hoped he could stay awake long enough to say goodnight to Kurt.

Kurt hopped out of the shower and dried off. He rushed through his skin care and then opened the bathroom door. When he came into the room he noticed that his pillows were still on Blaine's bed. He smiled and came over to the bed. "Hi..." He thought Blaine would be asleep already.

"Hi..." Blaine mumbled.

Kurt picked up his pillows and then ran his fingers through Blaine's hair again. "Goodnight Blaine..."

"Night, Kurt..."
