Blaine woke up to the noise from hallway. It took him a while to realize where he was. The last night events popped up in his head as soon as he lay his eyes on sleeping Kurt. He felt goose bumps on his back. Nothing had changed. He wanted Kurt as much as he had wanted him few hours ago. He should go to his room so nobody noticed anything. He opened the door and four pairs of eyes were staring at him. So much for nobody noticed… He closed the door silently.
“Good morning.” He said and waited for some kind of reaction. Mathew`s fist collided with his face. “Come on, boys!” Lucas jumped between them. “Kurt is still sleeping. Take it somewhere else.”
Atmosphere in a kitchen was tense. Mathew was sitting on the other side of table as Blaine was. Wes, Nick and Lucas were watching every move they made so they could separate them if there was a need.
“What did you do in his room?”Nick asked Blaine and it was clear that in this case he was on Mathew`s side.
“Nothing. I was sleeping.” Mathew stood up from his chair and started yelling at him. “That is nothing according to you? You had sex with my ex while I was sleeping in the next room and it`s nothing?” Wes put his hand on Mathew`s shoulder and forced him to sit down.
“We were sleeping. We didn`t have sex. We were talking and we fell asleep. Nothing happened.” Mathew didn`t believe Blaine`s explanation.
“You`ve already lied to me once. Why should I believe you now? How long have you been fooling around with him? Now it makes sense to me why you are such a good friends… It`s funny. I thought he was interested in Lucas.” Lucas eyes went wide.
“What? Interested in me? Are you out of your mind?”
“You are an idiot. He`s wanted you since he got through our break up. But you are oblivious. Everybody knows that. Hell, he didn`t have to tell me and I figured it out myself.” Lucas considered it a joke and he laughed at him
“Everybody? I doubt that. Blaine and Nick didn`t know…” He was searching for support in Nick`s expression but found none.
“Sorry, dude. It was obvious. I just thought you weren`t interested when you didn`t put the moves on.” Blaine couldn`t keep with them. He had no idea what they were talking about. Kurt and Lucas? What? What about last night? Was it nothing for Kurt? Until now he had been sure Kurt felt the same but maybe he was just angry with Lucas for his obliviousness and wanted to evoke some jealousy. Blaine was just a pawn. No… It doesn`t sound like something Kurt would do. Then why Kurt didn`t tell him anything about his feelings for Lucas? They were friends. How it was possible he didn`t notice himself? Or maybe he just didn`t want to notice…
“Why are you yelling? Do you know what time is it?” Kurt entered the kitchen with his best bitch face. He isn`t a morning person. Everybody knows that. They deserved every bit of his snapping for waking him up. Then he saw blood on Blaine`s face. He came to him with napkin and put it on his nose.
“What happened?” He glanced from one to another, he met five numb reflection and mentally cursed because they really didn`t gave him anything he could work with. Mathew broke the silence.
“I punched him when he was leaving your room. Reflex.”
“Reflex? Are you crazy?”
“Am I crazy? I don`t know. You tell me. All I asked from you was to keep your distance from my family and friends. Instead of that you sleep with one of them! How is sex with him? Better than with me?” Mathew was in a rage and his voice was increasing its intensity by every word.
“You are a jerk.” Kurt said with ice in his voice. “I don`t care what you think. We were talking and fell asleep. And if we had been on it all night, it`s still none of your business. You have no right to punch someone because you assume he had sex with me. You have no right to punch him even if he had had sex with me!” Mathew left the room. Need for nicotine was too strong after what happened. Kurt turned to Blaine.
“Let`s go clean you up.”
“Let it be. I`ll take care of myself. Eat something.” Kurt was surprised. He had never seen Blaine acting so cold. He looked at Lucas and silently asked for an explanation but expression of Lucas face was unreadable. He nodded on an empty chair, poured him some juice and gave him donut.
“You made a big mess, young man. Try to think twice next time you are up to something.”
That`s it. Kurt had enough.
“What`s wrong with you? What have I done? I didn`t want to come here in the first place. You were going on and on about how I needed to relax and get out of the city…” He was screaming, relieving his tension from Blaine`s odd behavior on Lucas.
“Do not yell at me!” Lucas said calmly and Kurt shut up immediately. Lucas had never used this tone with him. His face was strict and Kurt knew him long enough to know he was disappointed.
“Get out of the city and relax is one thing. Sleeping with your ex`s good friend is another issue.” Kurt shook his head. He couldn`t believe what Lucas was saying. Tears began to blur his vision. Blaine wasn`t there to help him explain the situation and he was hopeless. Nick and Wes didn`t say a word since he came, but he could see they agreed with Lucas.
“Thanks for breakfast. I am not hungry. Blaine slept in my bed with his clothes on. I am not going to defend myself from something I didn`t do.” When he was leaving the kitchen, their moods reached the freezing – point.
On his way to the room he saw Blaine in the bathroom. He leaned on a doorpost.
“You told me you didn`t regret anything yesterday.” Blaine lifted his head and looked at Kurt`s reflection in a mirror. “I didn`t know I was a part of love triangle yesterday.”
“Love triangle?” Kurt felt like a fool. The more he tried to find out what`s going on the more confused he got. Blaine turned to him, softness and sweetness missing in his eyes but Kurt didn`t averted his glance from them. “Lucas.” Blaine hoped Kurt would laugh at it. That he would tell him guys were wrong. But Kurt stayed serious. He didn`t make attempt to explain it to Blaine.
“I think you should go.” Kurt put the brave face on and didn`t start crying until he was in his room. Everything was wrong. Blaine was mad at him. Dragging Lucas into this mess was Mathew`s revenge. It wasn`t fair. Mathew knew Kurt didn`t want to tell anything to Lucas because there was no feedback from him. He was getting over him and yesterday he forgot about him completely. Tears were streaming down his face. He should stay in the room today. He lay on his bad staring to ceiling and considering the best option he had to make things right. But it seemed like there was no way he could fix it. After a while he heard someone knocking on the door. His heart skipped the beat at the idea it could be Blaine.
“It`s open.” Nick poked his head to the room. “Can I come in?” Kurt nodded and Nick sat on the chair opposite him.
“How long do you want to hide here?”
“I don`t know. Nobody believes me so till we are going back I guess…”
“You didn`t have sex with him, did you?” Nick came to Kurt because he was aware the whole situation got out of control and it was partially his fault. He shouldn`t have let Blaine near Kurt. He had recognized the look Blaine had in his eyes when he was in Kurt`s presence long before yesterday. He should have done something earlier.
“I didn`t. We were lying here, talking and early in the morning we fell asleep. That`s all.” Nick could tell Kurt was tired of explaining.
“Wes told me he had found you making out in the basement.” One second Kurt was angry, the next he was furious. He didn`t know Wes very well…or at all, but he had trusted him not to tell anybody.
“He couldn`t keep his mouth shut, could he?”
"He told only me. I woke up in the morning and found out Blaine wasn`t sleeping in our room. I went to find him and I ran into Wes in the kitchen. I asked him if he didn`t know where he was and he told the last time he had seen him he had gone to our room so I told him he hadn`t spent the night there. He got nervous and I knew something happened. I forced him to tell me. He wouldn`t have told me by himself. He said Blaine was probably in your room. He assumed you wanted to continue where he disturbed you. We went to your room to wake Blaine up before Mathew would get up but it was too late. Mathew and Lucas were in the hallway and Blaine was standing at your door. Wes tried to have your back but it didn`t go well. After what he told me I jumped to conclusion you two had sex last night. I am sorry, Kurt.”
“Nick, I don`t know what happened last night. I can`t explain. All I know is that I can get him out of my head. I don`t know what to do.”
“Hiding in here doesn`t solve your problems. Let`s get you breakfast and we`ll fix it somehow.”
“I don`t care what Lucas or Mathew think about me. I`m worried about Blaine. He is mad at me. Something happened between us last night and now he thinks it doesn`t mean anything to me. But it does, Nick. I swear. It does mean something to me.” Nick felt sorry for Kurt. He hoped they find the way to make it okay.
“I know it does. Come on. There is breakfast waiting for you in the kitchen.” Nick stood up and forced Kurt out of his bed.
Kurt was glad there was no one in the kitchen. He wasn`t in a mood for another confrontation. Nick stayed quiet and Kurt was grateful for it. He ate his breakfast by his willpower.
“What`s the plan now?” Kurt asked when he finished his breakfast. Nick didn`t have a chance to answer when Wes rushed to the kitchen. “Each of you take two bottles of water and come with me.” Order was simple and neither Nick nor Kurt had the guts to not listen to him. They followed him to the basement. Strong smell of alcohol surrounded them and both of them were surprised when they saw three very drunk persons. Mathew and Lucas were lying on the couch and Blaine was sitting on the floor, two empty bottle of vodka next to him.
“They drank one and half bottles of vodka on empty stomach in an hour.” Wes threw them bottles of water and locked the bar.
“What are you doing? We haven`t finished yet!” Mathew made an attempt to stand up but his legs didn`t listen to him.
“Yes, you have.” Kurt said firmly.
“Oh…look who is here…Kurt! Congratulations Kurt. You made three men feel miserable in one day. Not everybody can manage something like that. Do you…Do you know why we feel miserable? I feel miserable because you had an affair with my friend. Blaine, my friend you had an affair with, do you remember him? Yes, of course you do. You had your tongue down his throat yesterday… he feels miserable because he didn`t know about Lucas. And Lucas feels miserable because he didn`t know about himself either. Are you happy now?”
“Lucas didn`t know about Lucas, I didn`t know about Lucas but you knew about Lucas…” Blaine, Lucas and Mathew started to laugh at what Blaine had just said as it was the best joke ever. Lucas stood up and walked to Kurt. He poked his finger at his chest.
“Never stand between two friends. And if you have feelings for someone, tell him! So he wouldn`t be surprised to be the last to know.”
“You weren`t the last to know. I didn`t know either.”
Kurt - without saying a single word - gave them big pocket of chips. They really could use some food.
“You are not going to say anything?” Blaine was trying to stand up but it was so hard. His legs were heavy and his anger with Kurt was getting bigger because Kurt didn`t say anything. Who does he think he is? He can`t keep all his secrets for himself. Blaine needed to know why Kurt made a fool of him. “At least try to defend yourself!”
“If I joined your conversation, it wouldn`t be a fair play.”
“Why? Are you afraid you would lose because there are three of us?” Kurt throw sweet smile at them with pitiful look.
“No. I would definitely win because of low blood alcohol level.” He winked at them, turned around and exited the room. He wasn`t going to solve his problems with a bunch of drunks.
The end of their trip in the next chapter. It should be up in two or three days. Nika
