For a moment, Blaine is paralyzed by the soft lips that are pushing against his own. Then realization hits him and he instantly pushes Kurt off of his lap. "Kurt! What are you doing?"

The boy looks up at him through wet eyelashes, a guilty look on his face. "Kissing Blaine." He replies softly. He seems to think it's completely normal or necessary. Blaine shakes his head.

"Kurt, you can't just kiss people, alright? Kisses are for lovers, not for pets. I don't know what they told you, but this isn't right, okay?"

Kurt looks hurt and confused at the same time. "But I- Blaine treats me well." He whispers, still staring into Blaine's eyes. Blaine merely pets Kurt's head and softly scratches behind his ears, earning a soft purr.

"Kitten, there is so much you need to learn." He softly lifts Kurt's chin with his index finger. "Don't do that anymore, okay?" He asks gently. Kurt nods, hanging his head afterwards. Blaine smiles slightly and nudges the boy. "Hey, let me wash your hair. Turn around."

Kurt does as Blaine tells him and turns around in the tub, easily fitting in between Blaine's legs. He curls up as Blaine wets his hair and shivers when Blaine starts to massage the shampoo into it. The sweet scent of the shampoo, and movements from Blaine's fingers, seem to make him sleepy once again, because he's purring softly, but he's slowly falling backwards, against Blaine's chest. Blaine smiles and washes out the shampoo, now putting in conditioner. He wants to take special care of the hybrid. While he lets the conditioner work into Kurt's chestnut hair, he washes his own dark curls, only using shampoo for himself.

As soon as he's finished with his hair, he takes a bottle of soap and silently washes Kurt's pale body, avoiding any.. intimateparts. He does offer a very sleepy Kurt some soap to take care of those parts, a blush on his face as he explains what to do with it. He's very glad that Kurt doesn't look at him, but quietly does as he's told. It's obvious to Blaine that Kurt isn't too bothered by Blaine seeing his body and he doesn't really want to know why. His hate towards the shelter is growing with every detail he learns about Kurt.

He washes his own body with soap, rinses the conditioner out of Kurt's hair and then decides he should get the boy out of the tub and into clothes, before he really falls asleep. So he gets up, wraps a towel around his waist and tells Kurt he'll be right back. He then walks to his guest room, where he already put down a stack of pyjamas. He wanted to get clothes too, but since he wasn't sure about the gender of the pet he would pick, he hasn't been able to yet. He picks a pair of soft, light blue, comfortable pyjamas, that he knows will look good with Kurt's eyes. He mentally kicks himself for caring about that.

He makes a short stop at his own bedroom, quickly drying himself off and putting on his own pyjamas. Then he returns to the bathroom to help Kurt out of the tub. He's surprised to find Kurt half standing, his thin legs trembling. He's holding himself up on the edge of the bathtub and his teeth are clenched, concentration and frustration visible on his face. Blaine quickly approaches him, terrified that the boy will fall and hurt himself.

"Come, Kurt." He says gently, while he wraps a towel around Kurt's body. Then he slips his arms around the slim waist and lifts him out of the bath, ignoring the soft protests from the other, claiming he can do it himself. He allows Kurt to hold himself up with help from the sink, while he carefully dries the hybrid off, trying to not think too much about the fact that he's basically been touching another boy the entire evening. Blaine knows he's gay and he couldn't pick between a boy or a girl because both would be pretty awkward in the end, so he decided to just go for the pet that gave him a feeling that was different from the others. This obviously happened to be Kurt.

He helps Kurt into a pair of clean boxers and the pyjamas, looking up in surprise as the boy softly sneezes. "Are you okay?" He instantly asks, worried. Kurt shrugs and closes his eyes, his body leaning on Blaine now. Blaine lays a hand on Kurt's forehead. "Honey, I think you have a fever. Let's get you into bed, alright?" He lifts Kurt up in his arms. The half cat doesn't even complain. He's only yawning and presses himself against Blaine's chest for heat. Blaine subconsciously pulls him a bit closer. He lays Kurt down in the guest room, tucking him in gently in the soft bed. Kurt automatically curls up into a ball, his fingers clenching the sheets.

"Feels so soft." He mumbles, sounding sleepy. Blaine smiles and presses a soft kiss on Kurt's warm forehead.

"Goodnight, Kurt. If you need anything, just call, okay? I'm in the room right next to this one."

Kurt half nods, apparently exhausted, and Blaine brushes his fingers through the boy's still wet hair. A soft purr is audible, but Kurt seems to be asleep already, his breathing louder and evened out. Blaine walks to the door, glances at the sleeping figure one more time and then goes to his own bedroom, leaving both doors open so he will be able to hear Kurt sooner if he calls him. He groans as he realizes he forgot to brush his and Kurt's teeth, but he doesn't want to wake up the boy, so he shuffles back to the bathroom by himself to brush his own teeth. Then he gets into his bed, quickly drifting off into a peaceful sleep.

Blaine is woken up a few hours later (which he notices as he glances at the alarm clock on his night stand) by the sound of stumbling and soft hissing. It takes about a minute for him to remember Kurt's presence, first scared someone broke into his house. He gets up quickly, flipping on the light and making his way to the small boy, who is crawling in the middle of the hallway, apparently on his way to the bathroom. He freezes as Blaine turns on the light.

"Kurt? What are you doing?" Blaine asks sleepily, rubbing his eyes and moving closer to Kurt who looks at him like a deer in headlights. When Blaine reaches the boy, he kneels down, since Kurt is also on his hands and knees and he doesn't want to scare him.

"I- I have to use the bathroom." Kurt's voice sounds high, but small and still a bit raspy.

"Oh.." Blaine says, feeling a bit stupid for getting all worried, even though Kurt seems to look paler than before. "Are you okay?" He adds, automatically. Kurt looks away, his body trembling. "Hey.. Hey, kitten.. What's wrong?"

Kurt presses his lips together, the color completely drained from his face now. When he starts to heave, Blaine instantly understands why he's on his way to the bathroom. He acts quickly, wrapping his arms around Kurt's waist and dragging him the last few meters to the toilet, reaching it just in time. He rubs soothing circles across Kurt's back, trying to comfort the boy as he empties his stomach into the toilet bowl. Then he gives him a glass of water, at which Kurt stares.

"Right.. I'll be right back." Blaine quickly runs downstairs, grabbing a new straw from the kitchen and returning to Kurt to help him rinse his mouth and drink some water. As soon as the boy is finished, he looks up at Blaine, a mixture of guilt and gratitude on his face. Blaine brushes his fingers through Kurt's soft, chestnut hair. "It's okay. Let's get you back into bed."

He lifts up the boy in his arms once again and carries him back to the guest room. As they reach the door, Kurt starts to protest with a soft hiss. Blaine frowns and looks down at the boy. "What's wrong?"

Kurt bites his lip and looks away for a moment. Then his blue eyes lock with Blaine's hazel ones again. "Can I sleep with you? I'm used to having the other pets around me, even if it was dark and it was scary, I knew I wasn't alone." He breathes, almost shyly.

Blaine hesitates for a moment. It's not that he doesn't want Kurt sleeping in his bed, but he is actually used to sleeping alone and he tends to sprawl himself all over the twin bed like an octopus. Still, he can't refuse the adorable figure in his arms and he continues walking, taking Kurt with him to his own room, where he puts him down on the bed. As soon as he has the boy tucked in, warm and comfortable, he get in on the other side. "Wake me if you feel sick again, okay?" He asks gently. "I will help you to the bathroom. It's easier."

Kurt nods, still looking a bit guilty. Blaine pets his hair to comfort him. "Sleep, kitten." Kurt nods again, closing his eyes. Kurt's tail softly brushes past Blaine's hand and he smiles. Then he closes his tired eyes and half registers Kurt curling up against his body before he falls asleep.
