A few weeks had passed and Kurt still hasn't asked Blaine to move in. Blaine understands why after Adam encounter but he misses Kurt and misses living with him. They've both been working so much over the weeks that they've hardly seen each other let alone be in the same room as each other. Blaine found it easier to stay at his own place after working instead of making the long trek over to Kurt's and same with Kurt.
Blaine plays to the small crowd of regulars in the cafe. It's a Friday night and he knows that most of the people are on their way out to bigger events. His had his fun playing here in the past but he knows he wants to play somewhere a little bigger and as much as he has his regulars who enjoy his music he knows most of them here aren't really listening. Tonight isn't really his night and its showing.
Another broken string and his cursing under his breath. He gets a few looks but most of the audience haven't noticed the sudden silence. He wants to scream and shout but he can't. Blaine remembers when he could get every single customer in the building to stop what they were doing and listen to him. What happened? Is it him?
"I'm sorry about that, broken string." He says as he bends down to his guitar bag. He feels as if the whole words eyes are looking at him but he knows that's not true. He takes a deep breath and changes the string. He can do this; he can win the crowd back.
Kurt is still at Vogue stuck in a meeting that should have finished two hours ago. They were discussing an upcoming party to help promote Vogue online. It took them an hour just to decide on the venue alone. Kurt listens to everyone in the meeting, his mind rushing with ideas that wouldn't work in their timescale or budget.
"Right onto the next item....Music" Isabelle announces. Kurt perks up. "Now I was thinking maybe we could get some a little less known to the public, maybe promote an act, maybe even use this as a feature for next month. How an unsigned artist got to perform for some of the biggest celebrities in the city." Isabelle turns to Kurt hoping he would agree with her suggestion then to the other members of the group.
He wants to agree with Isabelle, he likes the idea but he knows the others might need a little more convincing. He smiles at Isabelle to reassure her before she continues.
"Kurt.....I was having coffee the other day, the place you suggested for me to go..." She gives him a sneaky little smile. "and I saw your boyfriend. Don't worry I didn't introduce myself to him but why didn't you tell me he could sing?"
Kurt bites his lip as he face goes red. All the eyes of the room are on him. Isabelle pulls out her iPad and pulls up a video, she sets it to play and lets everyone listen.
"Hi I'm Blaine Anderson" The video said as Kurt watched from his seat. A cough is heard as they watch Blaine start to sing
"What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down,
What's going on in that beautiful mind?
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright."
Kurt forgets where he is for a second as his lost in the song he hasn't heard in years.
"My head's underwater but I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind.
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love all your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections."
Kurt shakes his head as he watches the other in the room. Everyone was smiling and nodding.
"His perfect" A voice uttered.
"Such an amazing voice" Another voice whispered.
"I want Blaine to perform at the party!" Isabelle announces as she looks down at Kurt who's clearly taken by the video still playing. "All who agree with Blaine performing raise your hand"
They both watch as everyone lifts their hands up. Kurt smiles to himself, proud of Blaine.
