"Uhm, what do you want to talk about?" Blaine tensed. He seemed nervous of what was to come.
"No nothing bad. I just mean talk, like, about anything! Music, fashion, the weather, food, anything!" Kurt tried not to stare to long as Blaine wearing sweats, otherwise he'd lose his focus.
"Uh, sure Kurt. Why don't we talk about why you're being so weird right now?" Blaine laughed slightly. Almost a chuckle.
"Well, not that I don't enjoy how physical we've gotten this week, I am just worried that the physical might be the only thing this relationship stands on. I don't want you to date me because you're horny but too much of a gentleman to hook up. I like you, all of you. You're smart and sweet and have been a protector of sorts for me." Blaine just sat there, listening to every word that left Kurt's mouth. His face changed expression quickly. "I don't want you to only want me for sex. I want a boyfriend. A relationship. I've never had either of those before and I want to do this right."
After a pause, Blaine looked Kurt straight in the eyes. His eyes slightly watery and his face very serious. "Kurt, I…. I never want you to think that again! I mean, yes I find you very physically attractive. I have since I first met you. Then being friends with you I began to appreciate and admire everything about who you are as a person. I like you too! You're funny, smart, strong willed, and you sing like an angel."
Kurt was blushing, he couldn't help it. Blaine was amazing.
Blaine continued, slower this time. Looking for the courage to say the words. "I know we've been going a little fast, but I've wanted to kiss you and hold you and…be with you, for a while now. It's all I could think about. I guess I just got a little over excited that now that I get to be with you, I get to do all those things with you….when you're ready, of course. But, Kurt, I would be just as happy sitting on the couch, snuggling and watching Oprah. As long as it's you that I'm with, I'm happy."
Kurt felt the tears start to fall. He smiled at this beautiful boy. This amazing boy, who he was honored to call his boyfriend. He shifted closer to Blaine and slipped under his arm. Blaine pulled him in close, resting his forehead on the top of Kurt's head. They sat like this for a while, in silence, just enjoying the warmth the other gave off. Kurt then lifted his head.
"Blaine, I'm happy too! And this," he snuggled into Blaine, "is just perfect!"
The next day, Blaine went out of his way to give Kurt the perfect date. It was too cold still for a romantic walk through the park, but they did it anyways. They walked to the picnic area where Blaine had set up an entire spread for them. He even brought his iHome to play flighty classical music in the background of their little lunch. The chatted about Dalton, the other Warblers, Kurt's friends from his old school, and the new boots Kurt bought at Macy's.
"Kurt, I can't believe you haven't heard KP's 'ET' yet! It's only the best song ever!" Kurt was really concerned about Blaine's obsession with Katy Perry. Yes, it was his rendition of Teenage Dream that won Kurt's heart in the first place, but as time went on it went from cute to borderline creepy. "The first time I heard it, I listened to it 100 times in a row after that! I even wrote to her fan site telling her!"
Blaine leaned over to the iPod to find the song. As it played, he closed his eyes, listening intently. Kurt couldn't help but watch Blaine. He was so beautiful! A total goofball, but beautiful!
After their lunch, they headed to the local cinema. Blaine picked a fun romantic comedy for them to see. Kurt thought it was terrible and clich�, Blaine loved it. The last stop on their perfect date was Kurt's house. They were supposed to have dinner with Kurt's family. Burt said it was because he had something to discuss with Blaine.
The dinner its self was tame. Idle conversation, Finn engorging himself with half of the food on the table, and Carole and Kurt clearing plates and doling out seconds whenever necessary. The unusual part was the Spanish Inquisition Kurt's father decided to have with Blaine after the meal. Kurt watched from the sidelines, nervous for his boyfriend.
"So, you're dating my son?"
"Yes" Blaine was nervously tapping his fingers together.
"How old are you?"
"17"
"Have you ever had a boyfriend before?"
"Uh, sort of. Not officially…." Kurt and his father raised an eyebrow to this. They had twin expressions on their faces. It was one of the things that reminded you that these two men were related.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?"
"I've dated guys before, just ever called any of them a boyfriend…"
Burt took a pause to contemplate this. Then he attacked with the next question. "Are you a virgin?"
Up to this point Kurt had been watching the two interact like one would watch a tennis game. Back and forth. Now Kurt's full attention was on Blaine. He needed to know. Blaine was too good with the sexual stuff, maybe he's had sex before. How have they never discussed this?
"Uh, yes! I am!" Blaine was obviously thrown off by this question. This was the first time Kurt saw him blush.
The questioning went on a little longer. Burt asked about is parents (which Blaine was very vague about. Just giving their names and that his dad was a business man), college plans (Blaine wants to study Music Education in New York City), and about the Warblers.
Burt finished with one final warning. "Ok, Blaine. I like you. I liked it when you and Kurt were friends and I knew this would happen eventually. And as long as you are good to my son, treat him well, respect his boundaries, and respect him; I won't have to kill you!"
Blaine laughed nervously. Burt just glared, and then he turned and left the room. Once alone, Blaine relaxed and Kurt went to him. He took his hands and held them.
"Well you survived! Don't worry my dad isn't that scary!" Kurt said, hoping to be reassuring.
"Yes, he is. Cause you're his kid. He probably would kill for you! But I will do everything in my power to never give him a reason to." Blaine leaned over and kiss Kurt lightly on the corner of his mouth.
They sat there for a while. Kurt was happy. It was days like today that he had always dreamed of. This is what having a boyfriend was all about.
"So," Kurt said, breaking the silence, "when do I get to meet your family?"
Blaine tensed, "Here's the thing Kurt….. you don't."
