10 Things I Want In A Guy

Kurt had picked out another movie, this time it was Little Shop of Horrors and they were currently halfway through it, Blaine was still holding onto his hand but was really quiet. A couple times Kurt had thought he had dozed off but then he heard him hum along with the song. "I think I can get used to this..." Kurt said after the song was over. Blaine raised an eyebrow at him. "Spending the weekends watching movies...it's nice..." Kurt wanted to say something about holding Blaine's hand but he didn't want to make him uncomfortable.

"Yeah it is nice..." Blaine squeezed Kurt's hand but then jumped when he heard Kurt's phone start ringing.

"Oh shoot it's Mercedes I said I would call her back and I completely forgot." Kurt sighed and answered the call. "Hey Cedes, I'm so sorry..."

"Boo, do I have to come to that prep school and strangle you?"

"No, I'm sorry I just got so busy that I totally forgot..." Kurt felt a little guilty that he had forgotten his best friend.

"What boy has got you so distracted that you forgot about me?"

Kurt bit his bottom lip and looked over at Blaine, "I've just been busy spending time with my roommate."

Mercedes didn't respond immediately, "He's really that cute huh?"

Kurt felt himself blush. "Yes, Cedes..."

"And he is sitting right there isn't he?"

"Yes...we are watching a movie right now." Kurt felt Blaine sigh next to him. "Can I call you tonight?"

"Yes you can and I want to hear everything...and if you don't call me I am skipping school tomorrow and coming up there and I will hurt you..." Mercedes threatened.

"I know Cedes I promise I won't forget." Kurt started chewing on his lip; he didn't like the idea of Mercedes being mad at him. "Bye, Love you too..." Kurt sighed and ended the call. "I'm sorry about that..."

"It's fine..." Blaine turned his head to the side so he was looking at Kurt.

Kurt turned his head too, and then blushed when he realized how close their faces were, Blaine smelt really good. "Are you feeling any better?"

Blaine nodded. "Are you still mad?"

Kurt sighed, his anger wasn't present right now but he was still pissed at Sebastian. "Yes I still want to do very hurtful things to him."

Blaine turned his head away trying to hide his smile but Kurt must have seen it because he squeezed Blaine's hand. "No one has ever challenged Sebastian before."

"Well I think it's about time someone knocks him off his high horse..." Kurt really didn't know if he was going to be able to see Sebastian without wanting to cause him harm. "But I know violence is frowned upon here..."

"Yeah it is but fights happen here though..." Blaine started running his fingers over Kurt's knuckles.

"Really, I thought prep boys were too good to fight..." Kurt smirked at Blaine who crinkled his nose at him. "What happens if you get into a fight here and get caught?"

"Depends on how bad the fight is I guess..."

Kurt nodded. "Guess I better be careful when I'm around Sebastian then huh?"

"Yes you should, I don't want you getting in trouble." Blaine squeezed his hand again. "Or..."

"Or..." Kurt wasn't sure what Blaine was going to say.

"Or hurt, I don't want you to get hurt..."

"You think that Sebastian could hurt me?" Kurt couldn't help the amusement that slipped into his voice.

"I don't know...I don't know how strong you are..." Blaine blushed he was suddenly wondering what Kurt looked like without a shirt on.

Kurt laughed. "Don't let my feminine voice fool you..."

Blaine shook his head. "That's not what I meant and I like your voice..."

Kurt looked at Blaine with surprise written all over his face. "You like my voice..." Kurt had never, not once in his life heard that, not unless they were talking about his singing voice, and that had only come from his family and his best friends.

"Yes I like your voice..." Blaine smiled at him but felt his cheeks still burning.

"Is that why you let me talk so much?" Kurt laughed quietly, he hadn't thought about this earlier, but Blaine seemed very calm when he would just sit here and talk or sing to him. Blaine nodded at him but the blush was still in his cheeks and Kurt thought it was so cute. "Well I think you may be the first Mr. Anderson, to like listening to me talk."

Blaine didn't respond to this he just staring at the TV screen, the end-credits to the movie were playing now. He just didn't know what to say. He found it hard to believe that guys didn't like Kurt. He knew that the guys here would start liking Kurt in no time, and that actually scared him, because it would mean that Kurt would get the boyfriend that he said he wanted to get and that meant that Blaine wouldn't be able to hold his hand anymore.   

Kurt was watching Blaine he seemed very lost in thought. He squeezed Blaine's hand and then started to climb off the bed, expecting Blaine to let go but he didn't he just tightened his grip more. "I'm not going any where's..." Kurt smiled at him.

Blaine reluctantly let go of his hand. "What are you doing?"

Kurt smiled again and then walked over to his wardrobe closet where he had put his school bag. He pulled it out and then pulled his laptop out of it. He came back over and climbed on the bed, plopping himself gracefully back down beside Blaine so their shoulders were touching again. He wanted to check his email. "Just wanted to check what my friends are up too." Kurt told Blaine when he was giving him a curious look. Kurt clicked on the icon to open the internet browser once the computer had loaded up all the way. He signed into his email and then looked over at Blaine when he felt him move. He was hugging his knees again with his head laid on top of his knees so it was facing in Kurt's direction. "Blaine..."

"Hmm..."

"Why do you sit like this so much?" Kurt thought it looked like he was trying to hide when he did it.

Blaine shrugged. He didn't think he wanted to tell Kurt that he just felt safe sitting like this. He didn't know if that would even make sense, hell he wasn't sure it made sense to himself. He sighed. "Habit..."

"You look like you're trying to make yourself as small as possible or hide yourself..." Kurt hoped he didn't make Blaine mad at him about this. Blaine just shook his head at him. Kurt didn't know what he was saying no about or if he was just saying he didn't want to talk about it. He quickly checked his email and then signed out. He didn't have much important to look at right now. He signed into his Facebook account and checked out what everyone had posted.

Rachel Berry- 3 hours ago.

I had breakfast with my bestie this morning, missed him so much. Met the lead singer of the Warbler's...

She better not talk about what happened this morning or I will murder her...Kurt really hoped his best friend had more sense than that. He sighed as he read the rest of her message and he was grateful that she didn't say anything. He didn't need Blaine to not trust his friends. All she said was that she liked Blaine a lot more than she thought she would have. Kurt continued to browse the home page. No one really had anything interesting going on right now and none of them were online so he signed out and then closed the internet browser.

Kurt thought that maybe Blaine would like seeing pictures of him and his friends and family. He opened his folder that he kept all his important things in and was just about to open his picture folder when Blaine put his hand on top of Kurt's. "What's the matter?" Kurt turned his gaze on Blaine.

"What's that?" Blaine pointed to one of the icons and watched as Kurt started to blush the deepest red he had ever seen come on his face. Blaine bit his bottom lip, "Sorry you don't have to tell me, I shouldn't be nosey." Blaine moved his hand away from Kurt's but Kurt grabbed it before he could wrap his arm around his knees again.

Kurt glanced at the icon to which Blaine had pointed as he grabbed Blaine's hand in his. "That's just something that Rachel, Mercedes and I did one night at our sleep over when we were bored." Kurt hadn't really remembered he had kept in on the computer. He hovered the mouse over a word document that was titled, Ten Things I Want In A Guy... He double clicked on the icon and the word program opened it up. "I actually forgot I still had this..." Kurt turned his head so he was looking at Blaine. He wasn't watching Kurt's computer anymore his forehead was on his knees. Kurt ran a hand up and down Blaine's arm. "Do you want to read it? I don't mind...it's just a little embarrassing that's all..."

Blaine picked his head up and stared at Kurt. "I don't want you to be embarrassed..." Blaine dropped his gaze to Kurt's hand that was still stroking his arm it was such a gentle touch.

"It's fine..." Kurt turned the computer towards Blaine slightly so he could see it better. "You don't judge remember? So what do I have to be embarrassed about?" Kurt noticed that Blaine was watching his hand. "Is this okay?"

Blaine nodded at him and then looked up at the computer. He started reading what Kurt had written.

What I want in a guy is: Respect, I want him to respect me for everything that I am, body and mind. He doesn't have to agree with me all the time but I want him to respect my decisions. Romance, I want a guy that doesn't mind just cuddling in bed watching sappy love stories or cuddling in front of the fire place. And someone who will buy me flowers from time to time just because he feels like it. Time, I want someone who wants to spend time with me but also knows when I need time to myself. Dinner, I want a guy that will cook for me, even if he isn't the best cook and who will cook with me instead of wanting to order out food every night. Communication, I want him to be able to talk to me about anything that is bothering him, and to tell me about his day and to listen to me in return. Consistency, I want someone that will always love and support me no matter what has happened. Humor and Humility, I want someone who can laugh at themselves and is not to serious all the time. Challenge, I want a guy that will challenge me every day to be better than what I am. Sex, I want a great lover who will take care of my body and my needs and allow me to do the same to him. And Engagement, I want him to be married to me mind, body and soul, to be mine forever and always.

Kurt watched Blaine as he read it. He was so cute and had a very expressive face. His eyes had gone wide a few times and Kurt wondered at which parts. "I know it's silly."

Blaine shook his head, "No it's not..." Blaine thought it was sexy that Kurt knew what he wanted. Blaine himself didn't think he knew what he wanted, not like Kurt did.

Kurt smiled at Blaine and started rubbing his arm again, his skin was soft and Kurt loved the color of his skin. Kurt sighed he was going to ask Blaine if he knew what he wanted in a guy, but since Blaine was so shy and didn't seem to want guys touching him Kurt didn't think he knew what he wanted. He opened the pictures folder and started showing Blaine the pictures of his friends and family. "So this is my dad and me when I was twelve..." He watched as Blaine smiled. Kurt couldn't help but smile too. "I was such a pain in the ass, I didn't like to listen to a word he said back then...I guess it was because I was scared that he wouldn't accept that I was different..." Kurt was hoping that Blaine would tell him about his family.

"So your dad does accept you though?" Blaine was watching Kurt's face intently.

"Yes, he took it a lot better than I thought he would, and then he told me he knew that I was even though I never said anything..." Kurt sighed.

"My dad doesn't like it..." Blaine was looking at the pictures as Kurt clicked through them, he saw a newer one of Kurt and his dad that had been taken at Christmas with two other people, who Kurt had told Blaine were his step-mother Carole and his step-brother Finn. Blaine didn't have any new pictures of him and his dad.

"Your dad doesn't approve of you being gay?" Kurt wanted to make sure that this is what Blaine was talking about. Blaine nodded at him. "I'm sorry..." Kurt started rubbing his hand over Blaine's arm again.

"I told him when I was thirteen...and after that he started acting differently with me..." Blaine was watching Kurt's hand again. "It was like he became a different person..." Blaine shook his head, he didn't want to think about his dad right now.

"How about your mom?" Kurt hoped Blaine would tell him more about himself.

"She...left when I was ten..."

Kurt felt his mouth fall open he hadn't expected that. "I'm sorry..." Kurt wanted to slap himself he shouldn't have made Blaine look at happy pictures of him and his family when it was clear by Blaine's lack of family pictures around the room that his family life was anything but happy. Kurt closed out the folder and closed the laptop, but not before he noticed the time. It was now six and dinner was probably being served.

 

Kurt knew that Blaine didn't want to leave the room for the rest of the night not even for dinner when he had suggested it Blaine looked terrified, shaking his head saying ‘it was okay he wasn't that hungry.' Damn that Sebastian I want to kill him! Kurt didn't like the fact that Blaine didn't want to leave the room now but he wanted them to both eat so he left the room to head down to the cafeteria to find out what was being served.

When he got there he saw that most of the Warbler's were in there at the table or still in line getting their food. He really hoped he wouldn't run into Sebastian at all though. He hopped in line and then grabbed a tray, hoping he could fit both plates on for him and Blaine. When he got up to the food he scanned it looking at all the options, there was Lasagna (vegetable and meat both), Stuffed Shells, and Spaghetti with meatballs, they were all served with Caesar salad and garlic bread. Kurt got two plates of lasagna, one vegetable for him and the other meat for Blaine. He put the salads and garlic bread on the tray too and then headed to get the drinks.

"Kurt..." Trent came bounding up to him.

"Hey Trent..." Kurt gave him a smile. He opened the large cooler and grabbed two bottles of water and two things of milk.

"What's going on?" Trent asked noticing the amount of food on the tray Kurt was carrying and the lack of there being Blaine near him.

"Blaine doesn't want to come out of the room." Kurt didn't think Trent had heard about what happened earlier yet.

"Why?" Trent looked around worrisome.

"Sebastian's an ass..." Kurt said as if it were enough of a reason.

Trent had a sad expression on his face. "I'm not going to comment on that..."

Kurt thought Trent agreed with him but was way too nice to say anything on the matter. "So, I'm going to go eat in the room with him." Kurt lifted the tray a little higher indicating that's why he had so much food. Trent still looked sad. "Well I better go before this gets cold, I'll see you later..." Kurt walked out of the cafeteria without a word to anyone else.

The hallways were completely empty as Kurt made his way through them heading back to the room. He rounded the last corner and stopped in his tracks, Sebastian was heading towards him from the other end of the hall. He didn't know Sebastian's room was on this floor. "What are you doing?" He heard the snarl in his voice and tightened his hands on the tray. He watched as Sebastian tucked his shirt back into his pants and then smirked at him.

"I was just visiting a friend..." Sebastian loved the look he saw on Kurt's face.

Kurt ran past Sebastian and to the door of his and Blaine's room. He reached into this pocket and got out his key and then unlocked the door, which was slightly difficult with his other hand full with a heavy tray. "Blaine..." Kurt rushed into the room closing the door behind him.

Blaine came running out of the bathroom. And then watched Kurt set the tray down and then Kurt pulled him into his arms. Blaine tensed at first and then relaxed wrapping his arms around Kurt's waist. "What's wrong?"

"I was worried..." Kurt shook his head. "It doesn't matter..." Kurt sighed, he had been extremely worried that Sebastian had been in to see Blaine, but then realized that's what Sebastian had wanted him to think. Kurt himself relaxed into the hug after the panic left his body and he realized that Blaine was actually hugging him back. This brought a smile to his face.

 "Are we going to eat?" Blaine asked he was still a little confused by Kurt's sudden panic. He backed up when he felt Kurt's chest rumble when he laughed. "It smells good...making my stomach growl..."

"Oh and here I thought you weren't hungry..." Kurt couldn't help but tease him. Blaine once again crinkled his nose up at him making Kurt laugh again. Kurt walked over to the desk where he had sat the tray down and brought it over to Blaine. "I hope you like lasagna..."

Blaine nodded at him. "I like most food..."

Kurt and Blaine sat down on the bed and ate, talking idly about random things. After they were done Kurt watched Blaine stand up and pick up the tray. Blaine walked over to the door opened it and sat the tray outside onto the floor. When he came back in Kurt was looking at him with his eyebrow raised. "The janitor will take it back down to the cafeteria...it happens a lot when everyone is cramming for tests."

Kurt stood up and stretched letting out a yawn. "Well I guess we better get ready for bed." Blaine nodded and headed for the bathroom. "Aren't you forgetting your clothes?" Kurt knew he was smirking at Blaine.

Blaine turned around and headed to his closet with a blush on his cheeks, he was still getting used to the idea of sharing a room with someone. "I'll be quick..." He said and then disappeared behind the door.

Kurt sighed and took his phone out of his pocket. He had promised Mercedes that he would call her and Blaine being in the bathroom getting ready for bed gave him the perfect opportunity too. He found her name in his contact list and then hit send.

"Boo..." Mercedes said when she picked up the phone.

"Hey Cedes, See I didn't forget again..." Kurt plopped down on his bed.

"Is the roommate not around now?"

"He is in the bathroom getting ready for bed..." Kurt knew that she was hoping he would tell her more about Blaine.

"You are crushing on him aren't you?" Kurt could hear the excitement in her voice.

"Yes I think I am. Cedes, he is so cute...so shy though..." It felt good to be talking to someone about the way he was feeling. "I think something really bad has happened to him though..."

"Oh...why do you think that?"

"Well when I got here the other guys told me, after I found out Blaine was my roommate that at the beginning of the year his aunt had requested a single room for him and the guys said that Blaine..."

"Oh so that's his name, thanks for finally telling me..."

"Sorry Cedes..." Kurt sighed. He thought he had told her his name before. "They said that Blaine was completely different this year than last year. That he wouldn't let people close to him..." He heard Mercedes make an hmm sound but didn't say anything. "But he is now letting me hold his hand..."

"Awe..."

"Cedes, no teasing..." Kurt didn't want to be teased about it. "He lets me get close to him but freaks out if other guys do...well other guys that seem interested in him..." Kurt went on to tell her about Sebastian.

"Well that boy would get a beating if he was here in the New Directions..." Mercedes told Kurt after hearing about this Sebastian guy.

Kurt was just about to go into more of it when he heard Blaine coming out of the bathroom. "Well Blaine's done in the bathroom so it's my turn now, I will talk to you later, night Cedes, love you too..." Kurt hung up the phone and smiled at Blaine who was still running a towel over his beautiful curls. Kurt fought the urge to run his fingers through Blaine's hair and made his way into the bathroom with his clothes clasped in his hands...
