Blaine stirred in his sleep, eyes opening a crack.
What was that noise?

He realised Kurt had vanished from his side, having fallen asleep in his arms.

He frowned rubbing his eyes and sitting upright.
He registered the noise of the shower from the bathroom.

Why was Kurt taking a shower at - Blaine checked his watch, three thirty in the morning.

Blaine got out of bed ignoring the pain in his ankle, making his way to the bathroom.

He'd just ask if he was alright.
However the bathroom door was wide open...
Without hesitation Blaine hobbled through the door in search for Kurt.

What Blaine found next made his heart ache.
The boy was fully clothed, sitting under the stream of water with his knees brought up to his chest, soft sobs escaping his lips.

"Oh Kurt" Blaine whispered before stumbling over as fast as his ankle would allow him.
He ignored the fact his pyjamas were getting soaked and dropped to his knees in the walk in shower.

What he didn't expect was Kurt to flinch away from him when he made to wrap his arms around the trembling boy.

Kurt eyes were wide with fear.

"Kurt? Kurt it's just me Baby"...

Realisation dawned on Kurts face before he launched himself into Blaine's lap, body shaking with sobs, or the cold water, Blaine couldn't tell.

But it didn't matter, he held Kurt to his warm Body stroking his hair.

"Shhh Baby, let's get you out of here"
Blaine forgot about his swollen ankle, it no longer mattered anymore when the boy he lov-
when the boy he cared about was in such a state.

He picked Kurt up bridle stile and carried him into the bedroom.
Lying him down on the bed he proceeded to fetch a towel.

Softly he peeled of Kurt's shirt and trousers, coming to a halt when he reached the younger boys boxers.
The water had soaked straight through to cotton pants of his pyjamas.

Blaine turned his head, nervously pulling down Kurt's underwear, keeping his eyes trained on the wall.

 Kurt let out another soft sob, completely in no position to be worrying about his lack of clothing around Blaine.

Blaine fetched the Blanket from the other bed before covering Kurt's body, resisting the temptation to sneak a peek.


Now was not the time...

He then continued to change his own clothes as quickly as possible, his back turned to Kurt.

When done he walked back over picking up the towel from the bed.
He brought the towel to Kurt's hair, softly drying it a little before climbing back onto the bed, his back against the headboard.

Kurt was still staring into space.
Blaine pulled Kurt against his chest whispering soft nothings into his ear.

"Its okay, shhh...I'm here, I've got you"

After a few minutes Kurt calmed down, his sobs subsiding until only light tears slid down his cheeks.

"Do you want to talk Kurt?"

Kurt just nodded

"Did you have a nightmare?"

Another nod.

"What about?"

Kurt tensed.
"H-him" He whispered in a soft broken voice.

"Him...You mean Karofsky?"
Blaine held Kurt tighter, how dare that ass whole damage Kurt like this!
Anger flashed before his eyes.

Kurt gave another nod, shivering against Blaine.
"Kurt, Kurt look at me"

Kurt tuned his head, watery blue eyes meeting deep brown.

"Karofsky will never, ever touch you again."
He grabbed Kurts face between his hand, needing the message to sink in.

"I will never let him even speak to you again. He is not here. Okay?"

"O-okay"
Blaine bent his head and pressed a kiss to Kurt's forehead.

"Better?"
Kurt wiped his eyes before trying a weak smile and pointing to his lips.

Blaine got the idea.
"Are you sure?" He asked. Knowing what the context of the dream had probably held.

Kurt nodded, eyes still staring into Blaine's.

Blaine smiled before ducking his head down to press his lips to Kurts.

Kurt relaxed, closing his eyes and melting against Blaine.
All too soon Blaine pulled away, causing a soft whine to fall from Kurt's mouth.

Blaine chuckled lightly, earning a smile, a full smile this time from Kurt.

"Go back to sleep Baby"
Kurt shook his head in protest but Blaine pulled him down.
"Come on, I'll snuggle you, so you're nice and warm"
Kurt gave up fighting and huffed.

Blaine pulled the duvet higher up around them, wrapping his arms around Kurt's slender waist.

After a moment of silence Kurt spoke.

"Blaine?"
"Yeah?"

"I'm naked"
Blaine couldn't help but laugh.

"Hmmm, I know"

"You...you didn't see anything...did you?"
Kurt asked, a Blush on his cheeks.

"No, I promise, I was a very good boy, I didn't even peak!"
Blaine said proudly.

Kurt giggled.

"Thank you, I didn't mean to wa-"

Blaine interrupted him.
"Hush, you are always taking care of me when I'm...not myself"

"Hmm, we make quite a pair"
"That we do, goodnight Baby, get some sleep, we have a whole day of activities before us" Blaine said, pressing a kiss to Kurts back.

Kurt yawned and turned around nuzzling into the crook of Blaine neck.

"M'kay. Night."
"Night beautiful"

Blaines own eyes drooped as he held Kurt tighter...

---

Kurt smiled as he rolled over and snuggled into Blaine's chest, he knew he'd have to wake him in a minute, but the boy looked so peaceful.

He pressed a kiss to Blaine's forehead before softly getting up and heading to the shower, trying not to stir the sleeping boy.

Before he got to the bathroom however he side tracked, walking over to the coffee table and picking up Blaine's medicine.

 He knew Blaine hated to take them but there were meant to help. Kurt thought for a moment before splitting one of tablets in half, putting the other half back in the tub.

Surely half was better than nothing, he thought, shrugging his shoulders.
He fetched a glass of water and took it back to the bedroom, placing both the objects on the table beside the bed.

He smiled as Blaine shuffled in his sleep searching for Kurt.

With one more glance he left the sleeping boy for the task of a nice warm shower.

Memories from last night flooded Kurts mind as he entered the shower.

He shook his head, getting rid of any Karofsky related thoughts.
 
He was halfway through washing his hair when he heard a knock at the door.

"Kurt, are you okay?"
Kurt smiled; Blaine really was too good for him.

"Yeah, just showering" He shouted back.

"Good! Um, Kurt...I really, really need to pee!"

Kurt rolled his eyes. "Can't you wait?"
"Um...no?"

"But im naked!"

"Well, duh...Kurt please! I won't even look! Just turn around!"


"God Anderson your a pain in the ass!"
"That's what he said!"

Kurt fought a smile.
"Please Kurtie! You don't want me to wet myself do you?"

"Urgh Fine!"
And with that Blaine barged right in, the door not actually being locked.

Kurt shrieked and covered his crown jewels.
 Blaine laughed rolling his eyes.

"Don't panic, I didn't see anything I shouldn't have, unfortunately" Blaine added, Kurt Blushed.

"Blaine!"
"What? It could have been worse!"
"How in hell could it be worse?"

"Well, you could off being trying to get off" Blaine said blankly, making a rude gesture with his hand.

Kurts jaw dropped.
"I had no idea you were so Undapper!"

Blaine winked at Kurt.
"Now turn around so I can pee" He said, doing a little dance that could only be described as -‘The pee dance'.

Kurt laughed.
"This is awkward" He mumbled turning around to face the wall.

"Why there's no shower curtain is beyond me"

Blaine giggled, Kurt hearing the rustle of clothes before bursting into a fit of giggles as the sound of Blaine peeing filled the bathroom.

"Shut up Kurt" Blaine whined, blushing slightly.

"This is the most awkward encounter ...ever! - God Blaine, you weren't joking when you said you were desperate were you?"


"No" Blaine huffed, flushing the toilet.
Kurt gave a sudden high pitched scream.

"Cold! Ahhh cold! Blaine Anderson you Bastard!"
Blaine blinked; finally realising him flushing the toilet had turned the water  cold.

He grinned happily.
"Ooops!"

In his haste to jump away from the icy water Kurt had forgotten about covering himself. Leaving a very naked Kurt.

Blaine mouth hung opens, his eyes wide as his trousers tightened considerably.

Kurt yelled before turning back around to face the wall, face turning scarlet.

"P-please go"
"But-"

"Blaine."

Blaine sighed, walking out of the bathroom shutting the door behind him.
Great, now Kurt was upset.

God why did he have to just stand there and stare.
idiot!

Blaine went and got changed, taking his time to make the bed. When he walked back into the living room Kurt was there, facing the opposite direction, staring out the window.

Blaine walked up slowly, his ankle a lot less painful than yesterday.
He wrapped his arms around Kurt from behind him and pressed a soft kiss to his cheek.

"Im sorry" He whispered against Kurt's skin.


"Its fine"
"No, look. Just because I saw, well...all of you, doesn't mean we have to go any further than a simple peck on the lips Kurt, in fact, that's actually all we have done. We will move at a pace you're comfortable with"

Kurt sighed softly.
"Thank you, but...c-can I ask you something?"
"Anything"
"what you saw...was it - was it ok- um I mean-"

Blaine smiled turning Kurt around to face him.

"You're perfect"
And with that he pressed his lips softly but surely against Kurts.

He felt Kurt smile against his lips.

"Now then. We'd better head to breakfast" Blaine said pulling away.

Kurt made a whining sound as Blaine moved away.
"But I-"
"Later, I promise"
Blaine smiled holding out his hand...

---

Half an hour later found the boys fed and watered.
Amanda and Jake approached them.
Kurt smiled at them, rolling his eyes at the fact Jake was wearing his sunglasses inside.

"Hey guys, Jake here want to make sure Blaine's ankles better"

Blaine nodded. "Yes sir, hardly any pain, only hurts occasionally"

"Good, none of that sir crap kiddo, makes me feel old."
Blaine and Kurt giggled.

"So what's on the agenda today?" Kurt asked.
"Ah, Glad you asked, Kurt isn't it?" Jake asked.

Kurt nodded.

"Well, today were putting you into groups of say no more than ten, and each group will get their own vocal trainer, then, later on tonight you will have the chance to perform for everyone. I know you guys missed last night's open mic. But the weather is supposed to be good and we thought we'd have a BBQ tonight, sound good?"

Kurt and Blaine nodded.
"Do we choose our groups?"
Blaine asked, not wanting to be without Kurt.

"Well, usually no." Amanda chipped In.
"But, we will  make an exception for you" She smiled, just don't tell anyone.

 Blaine smiled.
"Wait, is there a chance you could do us a favour?" He asked.

"Sure Blaine"
Kurts listened intently.

"Well. The sandy haired kid, quite burly in our group B?"

Amanda nodded. "Yes, Jacob."

"Yeah, well can you make sure he isn't put in with Kurt and I?"

Jake frowned.
"Why kid?" He asked.

Blaine fidgeted in his seat and Kurt slipped his hand into his to calm him down"

"Let's just say, Jacob doesn't like the fact we're gay"
Amanda smiled sympathetically and Jake nodded.
If he gives you any trouble let us know, I'll be sure to keep him away from you guys. Kids already gotten himself into trouble with Alcohol, one more strike and he's home"

Jake gave one last nod towards the boys before heading off.
"So" Amanda said sitting down next to Kurt, eying their locked fingers.

"When did this happen? Was it when I knocked on the door last night?"

Both boys Blushed.
"Well, that was when it nearly happened." Kurt said. "But you interrupted" He glared playfully at her.

She laughed. "So when?"
"Kurt and I went for a little swim in the lake last night and it sorta' just...Happened" Blaine said, Grinning widely.

"Aww, well I'm glad!"
"Thanks"
"No problem, I'd better be off. I'll catch you guys later"
"Bye"

Blaine continued to grin at Kurt who Blushed harder.
"What?"
"Have I told you how beautiful you are this morning?"

Kurt smiled ducking his head.

"Cheesy"
"I know" Blaine said kissing Kurts cheek.

Blaine and Kurt both jumped as the sound of a whistle being blown echoed of the walls.

"Listen up! Group B! You have all been but into Groups of Ten, Each group will be given a vocal coach that will spend three hours with you this morning. Okay the groups are"

Katie Maxwell.
Liam Johnson.
Blaine Anderson.
Kurt Hummel

Blaine squeezed Kurts hand.

Craig smith.
charlotte drew.
Nathan O'connel.


Kurt blocked the rest of the names out, content at just smiling sappily at Blaine.

Soon enough However all groups had been sorted.
Kurt and Blaine got up, hands still linked even after Kurt tried to pull away.
But Blaine just shot him a ‘If they don't like it, screw em'' Look at Kurt and held his boyfriends hand proudly.

The girl, Katie Kurt thought smiled warmly at them and Kurt didn't hesitate to smile back.
The three other girls in the group were obviously Katie's opposites.

While the other girls were plastered in makeup- Katie held natural Beauty, her hair flowed in brown ringlets and her eyes were a startling shade of green.

Katie was dressed in a simply pair of skinny Jeans and a shirt, while the other girls were dressed in  too short skirts and see through tops.

Kurt knew which he'd rather be around. He began a conversation with Katie on how nice the house was, including Blaine in the conversation as much as possible. Not that he needed too, Blaine was clearly too absorbed in nuzzling his head into Kurts neck from behind.

Katie laughed.
"You guys are sweet, how long have you been together?"
"Um...a little under 24 hours?"
She looked shocked.
"Wow, really, you guys seem a lot closer"
Kurt felt Blaine grin against his neck.

"Thanks, I kinda like him" He joked.
Katie giggled at Blaine's wounded puppy expression.
"Kinda? You freakin' love me Hummel" He quipped. Not thinking before speaking.

Kurt just smiled offhandedly.
"Kurt I'm sorry, that was stupid, God im so fucking stupid!"


"Hey, no calm down". Kurt grabbed Blaine was just about to storm off in any random direction.

Kurt wrapped his arms around Blaines waist.
"You're not stupid, okay?"
Kurt kissed the corner of Blaine's mouth.

Katie watched curiously.

"Ok, do that again" Blaine demanded.
"What this?" Kurt asked pecking Blaines lips.
"Hmm"

---

1O Minutes later their instructor had shown up and led the small group to a music room, the walls had been soundproofed and inside stood numerous instruments.

She moved to the front of the class.
"Hey guys im Julie your instructor."
Julie walked with an attitude, her eyes glared at each individual student.

(Just picture Shelby/sue situation ;) )

"To start with each one of you will do sing a simple scale"
She demonstrated, hitting the low and high notes with complete ease and accuracy.

"Lets see what we have to work with...You"
she said pointing at Liam.
"go"
Liam's eyes widened, he cleared his throat before singing a scale.
Kurt had to admit, it wasn't bad, although his voice cracked on the high notes.

"Sloppy next."
She pointed a finger at Kurt who just gave her his best bitch glare before straightening up and singing the scale as flawlessly as she did.

"Bravo, what's your range?"
"Counter tenor, I can hit the high F"
"Impressive"

Blaine grinned at Kurt as if to say ‘my man'.

He wasn't shocked. He knew Kurt would be amazing.

"Moving on!" She nodded to one of the fake looking girls. Charlotte? Kurt thought.

Charlotte's voice was horribly whiny; Kurt had to laugh when Julie compared her to a drowning cat.

When Blaine's turn came around he nailed it, Kurt assumed he would, his voice was amazing. What Kurt didn't expect was for Julie to pull them both to the front.

"See these two? These are the ones that will end up with a recording contract while the rest of you live of your daddies money"

Kurt Blushed, feeling a little pride run through his body. At glee club he was always used to being second best.

Both Kurt and Blaine were made to help the other class members until they're runs were pitch perfect. Katie needed only a little guidance off Blaine before she was also deemed acceptable.

Once Julie announced they weren't going to get much better she paired people up, Katie was whisked off to Liam who gave her a shy smile.

Kurt and Blaine were also paired which shocked the boys.
She then proceeded to hand out sheet music.

"Your assignment is to be able to perform this to the best of your abilities" A mumble of Groans came from the boys as they read the sheet music.

"Wicked?" Kurt grinned excitedly!
"Of course, what better to test your vocal skills than such a phenomenal piece of show choir music?"
"Besides, I have a feeling you two could produce something amazing from this" she added.

Kurt grinned, eyes twinkling.
Blaine peered over kurts shoulder also smiling at the choice.
"For Good. Great choice"
"This is why you are my boyfriend" Kurt teased.


"Oh, so it has nothing to do with my impeccable good looks?" Blaine smirked.

"Nah, you're a hobbit"
"Hey! You're like, two inches taller!"

Kurt giggled. "three"
"whatever" Blaine said, smiling to let Kurt know he was joking.

The two boys set to work, surprised at how well they harmonised. You had to give credit where credit was due, Julie knew her stuff.  
 
Hours later they'd finally nailed it, with help Of Blaine's beautiful piano playing.  This seemed to further impress Julie.

Liam and Katie as well as Craig and Summer had also seemed to perform to Julie's standards.


They each took in turns to perform in front of the class before being quickly whisked off to the cafeteria for lunch with the announcement of preparing for their performance tonight if they wish to do one.
 
Blaine snaked an arm around Kurt as they walked.
"So, are you singing tonight?" Blaine asked, hobbling slightly, standing all day having put pressure on his ankle.

"Maybe, I'm not sure, you?"

"Wait and see" was all Blaine said before pecking Kurt's cheek and joining the back of the queue...
