"Well hi there, stranger"


Kurt was currently leaning, what he thought was seductively against his apartment door, Blaine was stood facing him holding what looked like two cups of coffee in his hands.


"Hi, I brought coffee, thought you could do with the pick me up this morning"


They had spent the night before chatting late into the night, nothing more than a few kisses here and there being exchanged, they were still getting to know each other.


"Thank you, you're amazing, this is just what I needed!"


Kurt smiled warmly at Blaine as he stepped outside of his apartment, turning to lock the door and follow Blaine down the stairs to where the back entrance to the shops were located.


"So, what gets you up so early in a morning?"


Kurt heard the innuendo as soon as it had left his mouth, but decided not to backtrack, instead hoping against hope that Blaine, by some miracle, hadn't picked up on it. Today clearly wasn't his lucky day as Blaine burst out laughing at Kurt's comment, leaning over to hold his stomach whilst he laughed.


"Oh God, that's hilarious, Kurt, you're so innocent when you want to be!"


Kurt laughed lightly along with Blaine, he could see the funny side of his comment, even if Blaine was finding it a lot funnier than it really was.


"..and to answer your question, you"


It was Kurt this time who had the strongest reaction, choking on the mouthful of coffee he had just had, spluttering slightly at Blaine's comment. He looked up to see Blaine with a smirk on his face, smug git. He tried to regain his composure as he opened up the back door to the shop, standing to one side to allow Blaine to go in before him.


The shop was always kept at a cold temperature, due to the flowers not coping well in the heat, which was a blessing in summer, but a curse in the winter. Luckily for Kurt the temperature outside today made the shop a perfect place to be. He watched as Blaine went and took his usual seat right by Kurt's workbench. It made him smile to think that Blaine had a 'usual' seat at all.


"Can I help you with anything, Kurt?" Kurt looked up to see Blaine watching him, a small smile on his face, his eyes wide and honest.


"I think I'm good actually, thanks, as long as you don't mind me working around you, you're welcome to stay for a bit if you want to"


Christ, man up Hummel, and stop blushing! You're not a teenage girl right now! He hated that naturally he was quite the blusher, making him look so inexperienced and young, hardly the look he was going for in his attempts to woo Blaine.


"You know I love watching you work, it's quickly becoming my favourite hobby"


That's how the morning continued, with Blaine sitting and chatting to Kurt as he moved around preparing the orders for the day. Santana had taken the day off, so Kurt was actually quite grateful for the company. Kurt went and served customers when they came into the shop, and Blaine answered the phone when Kurt was busy, taking messages for Kurt to call them back. They really were a great team.


When lunchtime came, Blaine went and made them both some lunch, bringing it back and allowing them to eat in between customers coming in. Kurt was slowly making his way through the restaurant's menu, trying each dish in turn, and so far nothing had been to his dislike. He watched as Blaine tried to eat without spilling any down himself, it really was adorable to watch, and all Kurt wanted to do was lick that bit of sauce off that had conveniently landed on his chin, but alas, customers just weren't on his side today.


"Hi Kurt!" Kurt spun around from where he was working on an arrangement for a 50th wedding anniversary to see one of his regular customers. He was a guy probably 2 or 3 years younger than Kurt, and from the word go had taken a bit of a shining to Kurt, always coming in and seeing how he was and what was going on in his life. Kurt had no idea if the guy was actually gay, but with all the lovestruck looks and flirty glances, he could take a pretty good guess.


"Oh Hi, Cody, how are you doing?" Cody was a good looking guy, tall with sandy blonde hair and a clearly well maintained figure. He definitely wasn't Kurt's type, but he appreciated the attention all the same. Cody had moved so he was standing right by Kurt, looking at him expectantly. Kurt could feel Blaine's eyes boring into the back of his head, and took a step back, trying to create some distance.


"I'm good, Kurt, really good, looks like the shop is doing as amazing as always, your flowers are by far the best for miles"


"Um, thanks Cody" He wasn't really sure what Cody's aim was, he was starting to make Kurt feel a little bit uncomfortable, he usually came in here talked for a little bit, buy some flowers and then leave, but today it felt like he had some sort of ulterior motive. Just as Kurt was starting to get a bit panicked he heard Blaine clear his throat behind him. Kurt jumped at the sound, spinning round and looking between Blaine and Cody.


"Oh God, Blaine! Um, Cody, this is um, my, um--" What actually were they? They had never really established it, and right now wasn't the time to. Maybe today was Kurt's day, however as Blaine decided to answer the question for him.


"--I'm his boyfriend, Blaine Anderson, nice to meet you Cody" Blaine reached his hand out to shake Cody's who shook it back with a venom and a slightly dangerous looking smile on his face.


"Boyfriend, huh, not what I imagined" Kurt could see Blaine squaring up, daggers flying from his eyes to stare out Cody. Kurt knew this was never going to end well, but part of him just wanted to see what would happen. He saw as Blaine stepped slightly closer to Cody.


"And what does 'not what I imagined' mean exactly?" Cody looked a bit uncomfortable right now, although Blaine was clearly a lot smaller than him, the look on his face right now was not one anybody would want to mess with. Kurt could see Cody was visably backing off, knowing this was an argument he was never going to win. He had to admit though, possessive Blaine was hot, super hot.


"N-nnothing, Blaine, just glad you guys are happy, that's all. I'll see you around, Kurt" Cody all but ran out of the shop, not looking back once. Blaine relaxed, shoulders slumping again, he ran a hand over his face, sighing loudly.


"Oh, God, Kurt, I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have done that! He wasn't doing anything, and then I just assumed we were boyfriends, I've screwed everything up haven't I?"


Kurt almost laughed at Blaine's panic stricken face, he was adorable when he was panicked, Kurt had no intention of ending what they had over some stupid possessive argument with one of his customers, he had found it incredibly hot after all. Instead of answering verbally he leaned over and kissed Blaine softly on the lips. Moving so his lips were just grazing Blaine's he whispered into his lips.


"You have nothing to be sorry about, I couldn't be prouder for you to be my boyfriend, and that was kinda hot"


"Mm, I shall remember that then, Mr Hummel"


Kurt smiled and pushed Blaine away slightly, swatting his arm playfully.


"Anyway, Casanova, don't you have a restaurant to open?"


"Way to ruin my fun! But yes, you're right, as always, I do have a restaurant to open"


Blaine was pouting adorably at having to go and actually do some work instead of keeping Kurt company. But reluctantly he stood up, kissing Kurt again before backing out of the shop, waving as he went.


"Text me later, you goob!"


Blaine did a final bow before disappearing next door, Kurt laughed fondly at his boyfriend. Wait. Boyfriend! That would never get old, he would never get bored of that word, he couldn't believe how quickly he was falling for Blaine, he felt like he was floating most of the time. Just as he turned around to finish up the arrangement he had been making, he felt his phone start to vibrate in his pocket.


Blaine: Does this count as later?xo


Kurt: Idiot. Yes it does, couldn't live without me huh? xo


Blaine. Never xo


Kurt smiled at the double meaning of that text, although it was sweet and he couldn't deny he felt the same, he couldn't help but think this was all moving a bit too fast. Pushing those feelings to one side, he decided to change the topic to something a bit lighter and easy going.


Kurt: So, boyfriend, what are we going to do this weekend? The shop is closed all of next week, so I have all the time in the world to spend with you! xo


Blaine: I wish I could, but the restaurant is fully booked this weekend :( We could do something during the day next week though? xo


Kurt couldn't lie, he was slightly disappointed, but he knew it was Blaine's job, and he couldn't deny him that, he was so good with him having to work all the time after all.


Kurt: It's fine, Blaine, really, and next week sounds good xo


Blaine: I do want to ask you to do something for me though... xo


Kurt: ? xo


Blaine: I want you to meet my parents xo
