Coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine

Gotta gotta be down because I want it all.

It started off with a kiss how did it end up like this?

It was only a kiss! It was only a kiss!

-----------------

Blaine was nothing but a loyal boyfriend.

He was always there for his partners no matter what the circumstance. He also tended to jump feet first into a relationship.

So when he got drunk one night and made out with someone he had just met, he decided that it was his cue to ask them out.

They accepted right away, excited because they had a huge crush on him.

Blaine was excited to finally be in a relationship with someone they trusted. True, he hadn't really had one before, but he was very happy to be in one.

Until that fateful game of spin the bottle where he kissed her best friend.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves.

----------------

Blaine had met Rachel at Sectional's for Blaine's show choir the Warblers. She had come out to see the other show choirs perform. Rachel called it ‘scoping the competition'; Blaine called it cheating.

Rachel had approached Blaine afterwards and gave him a speech about how great his singing and dancing was and how he was stiff competition for her show choir.

Blaine nodded along, trying to figure out when she would stop talking about her talent.

The Warblers had spotted her and invited her to their party to celebrate their win. Rachel was hesitant at first, but Blaine took her by the hand and took her anyways. She seemed like she needed a fun time.

In Wes's basement later that night, after a few cups of jungle juice, Rachel and Blaine ended up dancing and singing ‘Don't You Want Me'. Once the song ended, Rachel had pulled Blaine into a kiss, which he happily reciprocated.

He had felt a spark when they kissed, and he knew he wanted to see her again. She was funny, cute, and she could sing really well. So the next day, after his hangover had subsided, he asked her on a date, and she screamed into the phone a definite yes.

She said they could go to her Glee club's party to celebrate their Sectionals win two weeks prior (She explained that it was just an excuse to use her empty house for a drinking party). Blaine liked the idea of meeting his competition as well, so he said yes.

After all, what's the worse that can happen?

----------------

A few drinks later, and the entire Glee club was sitting in a circle in Rachel's basement. Blaine didn't know any of them, but he knew that were just as drunk as he was, if not drunker. Rachel sat right next to him, caressing his thigh slowly. Blaine felt a little happier than normal. Blaine looked across the circle and saw...Kurt? Yeah Kurt. Rachel had introduced him as that blonde girl's ‘boyfriend'. (She whispered in his ear that she was his beard and she was also secretly dating some girl named Satan)

Blaine locked eyes from across the room and he smiled at him. Blaine found his mouth turn up into a grin back, but he didn't know why.

"Come on BLAINEY." Rachel shouted right next to him, "Time for YOU to spin the bottle!"

Blaine snapped his attention back to the bottle in the middle of the room and nodded. He spun the bottle, secretly wishing it land on somebody other than Rachel.

Why he didn't know.

It spun until it landed directly across from him, right at-

"OOHHH You have to kiss KUUUURT!" The entire room shouted at him. Kurt blushed a little and mumbled something about how he didn't have to do that. Blaine shook his head and said, "WHY NOT? It's a game."

Before Kurt could say anything, Blaine crawled over to him and grabbed his head, "Prepare to have your world rock Kurt." And he kissed him right on the lips.

What happened next scared him a little bit. If he thought he had a spark with Rachel, then this was more like being struck by lightning. Kurt tensed up around him, then melted into their kiss, wrapping his arms around Blaine's torso.

Blaine tilted his head for better access, and Kurt responded by slipping in his tongue. He tasted like mint and tequila, both of which Blaine couldn't get enough of.

He could've stayed there all night if he could, but he was brought back to Earth by the sounds of wolf whistles around him. "Yeah get it Hummel!"

Blaine let go of Kurt's head and leaned out of the embrace. Kurt looked a bit starry eyed from the encounter but didn't say anything. He wasn't sure if it was the alcohol in his system but Kurt looked absolutely beautiful. Blaine felt a blush hit his cheeks and he knew he had to get out of there.

"I-uh-gotta-restroom..." Blaine stood up and went upstairs as quickly as he could, reached Rachel's bathroom upstairs, and puked his brains out.

----------------

The next week after that brought internal conflict with Blaine. Sure he was still seeing Rachel, but it didn't feel right at all. He would drive to her school and pick her up every day and take her home. He wouldn't admit it to anyone else, but he really did it to see Kurt walk out with her. They would kiss each other on the cheek, and he would head back inside, and by the sounds of Rachel's stories about Kurt he was practicing.

After a week of his routine, he drove back to her high school, sitting in the parking lot. He thought back to his kiss with Kurt, and he gripped the steering wheel tighter. That was the best kiss he had ever gotten, even counting Rachel's. He hit his head on the wheel. He had led his whole life thinking he was straight. Sure he wouldn't care if he dated a guy. Love was love, right? But he was still a bit confused as to why it was Kurt he had kissed and had all these feelings for.

Maybe he was just putting something there that wasn't there.

He shook his head and put the car in drive. He couldn't have feelings for Kurt. He was with Rachel. He was sure he was just confused because he's never had a girlfriend before.
