-Blaine p.o.v-
I was sat with Kurt once again, he has been really sick and Matron has refused to let him leave the hospital wing. He has had a really high fever all week and was tired all the time, he had tried to tell her so many times that it was normal for after what happened but she was a stubborn woman and was determined to keep him in the hospital wing until she was convinced he was well again. He was sleeping and Nick and Jeff were sat across the room doing homework while I was reading one of his books. I hadn’t been able to spend much time with him because Sebastian was determined to pry me away from Kurt because he clearly felt we were getting too close. Matron had been talking to Mr Day and they had decided that if he was feeling up to it we could take him to dinner with everyone else and he could have the evening out of this room, he must be feeling like a caged animal because Matron won’t even allow him to go to the bathroom by himself.
He stirred and I instantly put the book down slipping a receipt into the page so I could concentrate on him. Matron came bustling over with the tonic stuff that she insisted he had to take. After gulping that down Matron explained to him what was happening tonight, and not to my surprise, he was totally for getting out of this room. Matron scolded Nick, Jeff and I warning us that we had better take very good care of him. Me had all sworn that we wouldn’t let him out of our sight.
He was still very weak so getting back to our room was a bit of a challenge, I helped him walk while Nick and Jeff made sure we had a clear path in front of us. He changed into his swim trunks which we had bought for him and I ran him a bath. He is skinnier than he was because of the illness so I lifted him with ease and set him in the bath. I then sat reading the book while he sorted himself out. Nick and Jeff were sat telling each other how much they loved the other. I felt jealous in a way, I wanted to be able to do that with Kurt, but that was a dream that was never going to become reality, I don’t even know if he is even gay.
I heard the soft, musical voice calling me from the bathroom. Nick and Jeff came to help me, Nick held the towel and I helped Kurt to get out of the tub. I then wrapped the towel around him and sat him on the toilet lid and we left him to put his boxers on. It took him a couple of minutes because he struggled to do quite a lot of things at the moment. He finally called saying he was ready. The towel was round his shoulders and he looked so vulnerable, I almost launched myself at him just wanting to make everything better. Over the past couple of days we have grown really close and he has told me so many horrific stories of what he has been through. I have been through my fair share of awful stuff but listening to the things he had been through made me feel like my experiences were in no way comparable. Most of them had made me cry, something I have learnt not to do.
Once he was dressed in his school uniform we slowly made our way down to dinner early so that we didn’t attract too much attention. We grabbed our food, Nick and Jeff carried mine and Kurt’s while I watched Kurt as he walked slowly on his very shaky legs. We all sat down, Nick next to Jeff and me next to Kurt. He ate much slower than the three of us and many people were looking at him as they walked past. Everyone in our year knew what had happened and it was round almost the whole school because of course it had been spread by the Warblers who everyone knew in some way.
I could see he felt uneasy and he was struggling to eat. I quietly said,
“Have you had enough? We can go back to the dorm if you have, but if you haven’t don’t rush you need to start eating more, I am worried about you Kurt,” he looked at me and said,
“You.. care about me, nobody has ever said that to me before,” he trailed off quietly and I smiled sadly at him, his life was awful, I was determined to help him through every milestone because everyone needs someone to help them. I smiled at him nodding. Nick and Jeff cleared his plate and mine while I helped him up. He walked on his own but he was very unsteady still. Sebastian tried to trip him up but I guided Kurt away from him. Sebastian glared at me and I knew I would be in for it later, however now was time to concentrate on helping Kurt, I would deal with Sebastian later.
We decided to watch a film, Kurt was already tired, Matron had allowed him to have work to do during the day but it definitely made him more tired. Nick put the movie in and snuggled down next to Jeff, I suddenly felt someone next to me. I looked down and saw Kurt snuggling into my side. My heart leapt but I told myself to calm down. His head was resting on my lap and I was trying so hard not to get too excited about it because that would have been one awkward situation, and no doubt all the Warblers would find out about it. I gently moved him and put my arm round him as he snuggled closer to me. Nick just had to have chosen a horror movie, I didn’t think Kurt would like it, however before we could even get to any scary bits he was asleep, his head resting against my shoulder. He looked so adorable, his nose was twitching, I wanted to kiss him. I suddenly heard a cough. I looked up and saw Nick and Jeff looking at me in that knowing way, Nick suddenly began to grin,
“You like him, don’t you, as in like, like him... huh...huh?” Jeff raised his eyebrows. I could never lie to these two, they just knew everything. I nodded blushing slightly, Jeff just went,
“aww you are so cute, he feels the same way you know,” suddenly I saw Kurt’s eyes were open, he whispered,
“I like you too Blaine,” he then fell asleep. Nick and Jeff were both going,
“awwww,” and pulling kissy faces at me, I was blushing furiously and I knew it. Kurt had a smile on his face now and he looked overly adorable. I might as well just admit it, Nick and Jeff know and so does Kurt. He will be mine, when he is better and he is ready, I want him to be mine, but I don’t want to rush into it. Only time will tell what happens.
