Boys and Girls
Chapter ten
Kurt
Kurt and Sebastian had kissed many times and had even had long make out sessions in his room. He had even enjoyed it, but nothing could have prepared Kurt for kissing Blaine. Blaine’s kisses were so different to anything he’d ever had with his ex, they were so sure and passionate, even more so than Sebastian’s had been. Sebastian had been a great kisser but it was nothing compared to Blaine. His lips were soft and sweet, Blaine tasted of coffee and cinnamon and something else Kurt couldn’t quite explain.
To Kurt kissing Blaine was more then just making out, it was passion in its truest form, a feeling that he couldn’t quite explain. It was like all this time he only thought he was living and it wasn’t until Blaine, and his kisses did he in fact begin to know what living really was. They had been kissing on and off for quite a while now filling in the short breaks with soft touches and sweet words, something Kurt really didn’t want to stop and was not used to.
When Blaine had said he was crazy about him, Kurt thought his heart was going to jump out of his chest. How can someone put so much meaning into one sentence? Kurt had felt more needed and more cared about with those words then he ever did with Sebastian’s ‘I love you’. They had always seemed so cold and empty, lifeless even, without any real feeling what so ever.
But Blaine, well Blaine was different, it was like he was trying to tell Kurt in the best way that he could right now, that he was Kurt’s and needed him as much as he care for Blaine. So Kurt accepted the declaration for what it was and just enjoyed the feeling of Blaine’s lips on his, and the feeling of his hands on his body, finding sensitive places, that Kurt didn’t know existed.
Before Kurt knew what was happening, things were getting way more heated then was in all probability, acceptable for two people who had just made there relationship official not more then two hours ago. But right now Kurt could care less; in fact he loved it. Part of him knew it was too much but the Id of his psyche was telling that part, to ‘shut the hell up and enjoy the ride’.
The hands that were on Kurt’s face only moments before made their way down slowly undoing the buttons on his shirt, Blaine’s lips following, kissing down Kurt’s chest as his hands ghosted over his ribs and down his side. Blaine’s lips stopped at the waistband of Kurt’s jeans before they returned once again to his. As their lips continued to move, one of Blaine’s hand glided down and over Kurt’s thigh, the other was placed on the side of his face, thumb gently stroking his cheek. All this was going on while Blaine’s tongue explored Kurt’s mouth.
Kurt had his eyes shut tightly, just reveling in the feel of Blaine and the things he was making Kurt feel. And it was without a doubt that his time with Blaine was getting to feel oddly familiar to Kurt. And even though he knew he should tell Blaine to stop, he just couldn’t bring himself to say the words. It may be the right thing, but it doesn’t mean he wanted to.
Blaine pulled back just long enough to pull his own shirt off, and Kurt couldn’t help but stare just a little, reaching out to run his hand down Blaine’s chest before wrapping his arms around his shoulders and pulling him back in. Blaine’s hand resting at his knee as their lips continued to move with practiced ease, before it began to travel back up his thigh and across to Kurt’s belt buckle.

While his fingers threaded themselves in the other boy’s hair Blaine began to place light kisses under Kurt’s jaw and over to his ear.

“If you want me to stop, let me know now ‘cause I don’t think I will be able to later”

When Blaine didn’t get a negative response from Kurt he went back to kissing those lips. Both hands were now at the waistband of Kurt’s jeans the one that had previously been in Kurt’s hair, deciding to follow the path of the other. As he began to fiddle with the buckle, three things happened, the dorm room door opened, Kurt yelped, and Blaine found himself on the floor.

“Oh my god Blaine, are you Ok?” Kurt asked looking over the edge of the bed, where Blaine was lying on his back.

Suppressing a groan, Blaine sat up and rested his arm on the bed and rubbing the back of his head, looked over to where Nick and Jeff stood, staring back at them, looking guilty as sin. “I’m fine, but I’m sure I locked that door”

Kurt followed Blaine’s glare to Nick and Jeff and couldn’t help but smirk at the looks of horror on their faces at what they had just almost walked in on. Because Kurt is quite sure he wouldn’t have stopped Blaine once he started. He didn’t think he had the self-control to do so.

Kurt watched as Jeff’s look of horror soon turned into sheepish grin as he looked down at his feet, unable to really look them in the eye, “You did, but…” Jeff started as he held out his hand, dangling from his fingers was, wait was that a…, “We have a key”.

And sure enough there was the key that Kurt didn’t bother to take back. And now he wasn’t sure if he regretted it or was thankful, part of him didn’t want to be interrupted, but another part, well it was a little grateful. Kurt didn’t want to go into this relationship the same way he went into one with Sebastian.

Kurt wanted what he had with Blaine to work out; he wanted their first time together to really mean something. As he thought about it more, he didn’t want it to be a, in the heat of the moment thing. Call him a silly romantic but he wanted it to be special, he wanted it to mean something. He wanted it to be a way to connect with Blaine, not just for himself but for this amazing guy he had come to really care about, and he wasn’t ready to mess this up.

Blaine sighed, got to his feet and walked over to them “alright” he said hand in front of him palm up “Hand it over”

You would think Blaine had asked for his soul the way Jeff had reacted to Blaine’s request. Kurt couldn’t help but smile to himself and watch as Jeff hesitated biting his bottom lip, looking between Kurt and Blaine pouting, like he was contemplating whether or not he should just turn and run so Blaine can’t take the object in question from him.

“But Kurt said we could keep it” Jeff protested now looking to Nick for help, He closed the key tightly in his hand and pulled it to his chest as if it was something precious that needed his protection.

“That was before you abused the right to keep it, just because you have a key doesn’t mean you still shouldn’t knock first” Blaine said as if he was explaining things to a misbehaving child.

“Well how were we to know that you two would be in here getting naked? Last I heard you two were ‘just friends’” Jeff said using air quotes around the words just friends.

Jeff and Nick turned to Kurt who was now blushing, as Blaine managed to take the key from Jeff’s hand while he was otherwise preoccupied.

“Yeah about that” Kurt started

“We kind of just got together” Blaine finished

Nick and Jeff looked at each other and started laughing, Kurt glared at them and Blaine just looked confused.

“What is so funny” Kurt snapped

“Sorry” Nick Said “But you two didn’t just get together, you have been together since you meet”

“You just didn’t know it” Jeff added laughing again. Then he suddenly turned serious “Now about my key, how do I get it back?”

***
It had been a week since Kurt and Blaine had officially started dating, and Kurt had never been so happy. Blaine had helped him finish putting together his play and today was the day it was due to be handed in to be conceded for the competition.
Walking back to his Dorm, he couldn’t help the smile that was present on his face. This week had been one of the best, he could remember. Kurt and Blaine’s relationship was going well and Blaine could hardly keep his hands to himself, always reaching out to grab for his hand, touch his shoulder or hug him. Some small ‘I’m here’ gestures and some ‘I can’t wait till we are alone’.
But whatever the case maybe, Blaine remained ever the gentleman. Neither one of them was in a rush to move pass gentle kisses nor innocent touching. Both were happy with the pace they had set, and preferring for now to keep things above the waist.
The second Kurt opened the door to his room he only had time to register that, Nick and Jeff were both snuggled up on Blaine’s bed watch a movie, and Blaine turn his head from where his sat on Kurt’s, before Blaine was off the bed and in his arms pulling him in for a hug.
“God I missed you” Blaine placed a small kiss to Kurt’s neck, something he does a lot, before pulling back just a little so he could look at him.
“Blaine I’ve only been gone an hour”
“Yes, but in boyfriend time, that’s like…a week” Blaine said with wide eyes.
“Wow then a week apart must be pure torture for you” Kurt replied
Blaine’s eyes widened and he clutched his chest in mock horror “Don’t even joke about something like that”
“Well, its going to happen sooner or later, Christmas break is coming up in the next three weeks” Jeff said
Blaine tightened his grip on Kurt; He just smiled and looked over his shoulder to where Nick and Jeff were still sitting watching Blaine’s behavior with smiles on their faces.
“Speaking of Christmas what do you two have planned over break?” Kurt asked giggling slightly as Blaine buried his face in his neck and then licked it, wet and sloppy.
“Um, I’m staying at Jeff’s for the most part. Like every year.” Nick said the movie now forgotten.
“What about your parents?” Kurt asked trying to remove himself from Blaine’s grip which was proving to be difficult, as Blaine just moved to hold him from behind, arms around his waist and resting his chin on Kurt’s shoulder.
“Nick’s parents usually go see his sister in Australia for Christmas” Jeff replied with a smile sitting up and pulling Nick with him.
“And you don’t go Nick?” Kurt asked giving up and just leaning back into Blaine’s arms. He just hugged him tighter and Kurt could feel the smile on Blaine’s lips as he place yet another kiss to his neck.
“Call me crazy, but I like snow for Christmas, not that we really get it in Ohio. And it gets really hot in Australia in the summer. It’s crazy, and they lied, you don’t see a Kangaroo on every corner and people most certainly don’t ride them to school.” Nick replied resting his head on Jeff’s shoulder when he was done.
Jeff kissed the top of his head “Besides” he said “Nick can hardly stand to be away from me for a day, don’t think he would last two weeks. We have been spending Christmas together since we started high school and Becca got married to that Australian douchebag.”
“He isn’t that bad, Jeff.” Nick said looking up at Jeff form his place on his shoulder. Then turning to look back to Kurt he said “Jeff doesn’t like him, he met him once, and for some reason they just did not get along”
“What about you Blaine?”
“Going home, Cooper should be there too. Haven’t seen him since the summer, He came home for like a week, bragged about his ‘awesome job offer’ then left. Christmas should be fun” Kurt felt that last bit was laced with sarcasm.
Without letting go Blaine walked him and Kurt over to the bed before sitting down and pulling Kurt into his lap.
“What about you Kurt?” Jeff asked smiling at Blaine’s actions.
“Heading to Lima to spend Christmas with Dad and Carole, Finn will no doubt be doing the same. Rachel will most likely visit her dads, just because she doesn’t have to be here. But she will spend new years with us, her Dads as well.”
“We so have to catch up some time, we will be in Lima for Christmas as well” Nick said
“Really? Then we definitely should meet up. We can go see a movie or something” Kurt replied
“Hey what about Blaine and I” Jeff asked Nick and Kurt looked at each other and smiled
“Well I guess you two can tag along, what do you think Nick?”
“I think we can make some room” Jeff pushed Nick away playfully, causing Nick to laugh.
“Funny Nick real funny,” his tone would make you think he was pissed, but his smile told a different story. “Well Nick and I should be going, we have reservations so we will see you two tomorrow Ok, well bye” Jeff said pulling Nick out the door.
After Nick and Jeff had left, Kurt turned in Blaine’s arms and kissed him gentle before pulling back.
“Are you ok, Blaine?”
Blaine just smiled and pressed a quick kiss to his neck, “I’m fine, it’s just that I love my family, I really do but my brother has a way of making me feel… I don’t know just like a non person or something, you know?”
“I don’t understand. How does he do that?”
“He just does, there is like ten years between us, so I’m just his loser baby brother. I know he loves me, but sometimes he doesn’t think, before he says shit. Although he hated Sebastian with a vengeance, I think it was the whole ‘only I can treat my bother like that’ kind of thing. You know what I mean? He saw Sebastian do some pretty shitty things and he really didn’t like it”
“Well kudos to him for that,” Blaine gave him a weird look “The hating Sebastian not the rest…have you tried talking to him? Explain how he makes you feel? That’s what I did with Finn. When our parents first started dating he said some pretty hurtful things. He didn’t realize he was being hurtful, but I told him how the things he said made me feel and he worked on it. And now we’re close as any blood brothers”
“Yeah I could see that. He really cares for you, doesn’t he?” Kurt nodded “And Puck, he threatened to rip some guy’s arms off, and beat him to death with them because he looked at you funny” Blaine said with a smile.
“I think it started because he felt bad about how he treated me in the beginning, you know with the dumpster tosses and that. But I told him he more then made up for it a long time ago. Now he just does it because it is how he shows he cares. And I’m sure your brother will listen if you just talk to him”
Blaine sighed “Yeah I get that, ok I will talk to him. Who knows it might just help. You know he wasn’t always like that, when I told him I was gay, he said ‘good’. I couldn’t believe it; my brother’s reaction was ‘good’ can you believe that?”
“Did you ask him why it was good?” Kurt ask playing with the loose curls at the back of his head
“Yeah I did, he just said ‘that leaves more girls for me’ he said that if both Anderson brothers were straight the other guys wouldn’t stand a chance, and this way we have an Anderson for both sexes, me for the cute gay guys and him for the hot girls” Blaine said rolling his eyes “Never under estimate the arrogance of my brother”
Kurt smiled and pressed his lips to Blaine’s affectively getting Blaine to reciprocate, laying down and pulling Kurt with him, before rolling them over so he was the one on top.

Blaine
Blaine couldn’t believe how boring his class was right now. Music theory was by far his least favorite class, and it had nothing to do with the fact that Kurt wasn’t in this one. Ok maybe a little but it had more to do with the fact that there was some blonde girl name Annabelle who couldn’t take the hint. She had been hitting on him since the beginning of the semester and it was beginning to get on his nerves. As of right now she was trying to get his attention by blowing in his ear. And he just wished she would stop, whenever she got too close he would swat her away, but that just seemed to encourage her.
“Would you please stop that?” Blaine asked looking at her “I really don’t want to deal with this today”
“Come on cutie you know you’re into it” she smiled at him, reaching over to run her hand down his arm and taking his hand in hers. It sent shivers down his spine and not in that pleasant way. This was more like the feeling you get when you are home alone, and it is dark, and the little hairs on the back of your neck stand on end, the shiver you get when you feel like you are being watched. Or like someone has dumped a bucket of ice cold water over your head.
Either way it was not a good feeling, and Blaine hated it so he just glared at her.
“Hate to break it to you but I’m really not” he said pulling his hand from hers “I’m spoken for, sorry” even though he really wasn’t sorry at all, but he is most definitely spoken for.
She rolled her eyes “Yeah that’s what they all say, but you’ll come around when you want a quickie and that girlfriend of yours won’t put out, they always do”
Blaine just looked at her, eyed wide mouth gaping. Did she really have that poor opinion of herself or was that just plain cockiness? Surly he had heard wrong, know one is that forward.
“Not that it’s any of your business, I am quite happy with what I have, and even if it gets to that point, Which I really can’t see happening, I still wouldn’t come to you”
“And why is that?” she asked brusquely “Guys don’t turn me down for long sugar”
By this time Blaine had had enough, and putting this girl in her place was something he needed to do.
“Why? Oh my god, Where do I start? Not only are you self-centered and conceded, Annabelle, you are rude, obnoxious and intolerable. You believe that you are god’s gift and can get whatever and whoever you want, but let me be very clear about something” he looked her in the eyes, his own glowing with anger, he was no longer in control of his own words.
“Are you listening? Because I know how hard it must be for you to process something that has more then two syllables in it” Blaine hadn’t realized that by now the two of them had the class’s attention, he couldn’t believe how hurtful he was being. “No matter how awesome you think you are, and no matter how many of your so called fool proof techniques you use. I will never ever in this life time sleep with you, do you understand?”
She looked at him confused for a minute and Blaine thought in that moment that maybe she had given up.
“Wait why not?” Or not…Blaine was a little frustrated by now
“Because I’m gay you twit” he all but shouted.
“Well why didn’t you just say that, god Blaine you like to do things the hard way don’t you?” She said shaking her head
“Wait what?” Blaine was confused now “That’s it? No…” Blaine was interrupted by his professor
“Ok you two that will do. Blaine would you kindly take your seat so we can continue with the class” Blaine looked around all eyes were on him, he didn’t even remember standing up. He felt a tug on his sweater and looked down to see the Annabelle trying to get him to sit. So he did.
“Ok” the professor said “Now that Blaine has calmed down some we can continue.” There were a few murmurs of agreement from the class before he continued. “Can anyone explain Consonance and dissonance to me” A few people put up their hands “Yes, Jamie go”
The red head immediately launched into an explanation, but Blaine had tune out he’d know this since high school. Being in show choir, an a cappella group at that had taught him a lot. James finish by explaining that “dissonance creates a more complex acoustical interactions”
“If that explanation is not straight from wikipedia I’ll eat my hat” Annabelle whispered Blaine turned to her with a slight smile. He couldn’t agree more
“Tell me about it I could have given you a more detailed one in middle school” he whispered back both giggling. Maybe she wasn’t so bad after all.
***
After class had finished, Blaine and Annabelle continued their little chat as they left the room.
“So tell me, why did you stop when I told you I was gay”
“Well there seemed no point flirting with a gay guy, I mean don’t get me wrong if you want to experiment a little, I’m here for you,” She smirked “But as it is I don’t see that happening.”
Blaine watched her for a moment or two he couldn’t quite work this girl out, one minute she was practically striping him with her eyes and now, well now she’s not.
“But why?” Blaine asked “I mean don’t get me wrong, I appreciate it. And you’re a lot more tolerable but I just don’t understand”
“There is this guy in one of my classes, total hottie and we get along really well. When I first met him we got talking, and I asked him if he had a girlfriend and he laughed…” the two of them continued down the hall passing some of the other students a small Asian girl waved at Annabelle and she said a quick hi.
“Why did he laugh?” Blaine asked Anna smiled shaking her head
“Well he said he thought it was obvious”
“What was obvious?”
“The fact that he was gay, any way he told me that I reminded him of a friend of his. He said I was really a mixture of her and her girlfriend.”
“That doesn’t really explain the change in behaviour though.”
“Well I like him, he told me about his life. His jerk of an ex and his adorable room mate; I even met one of his friends. She came to get him from class,”
“You’re just looking for an excuses to hear yourself talk now aren’t you” Blaine smiled
“The point is you’re gay, I can’t have you, and therefore I stop trying simple as that. I really hate those people that think they can change someone’s preference if they try hard enough. My parents tried that crap with my brother. He even got a girlfriend, but I don’t think he was too happy about it. But he wanted to make them happy I guess.”
“I don’t know what I would have done if my parents tried that with me” they had reached the court yard by now and it was time for Blaine to head back to his dorm. He was taking Kurt to dinner tonight.
Annabelle reached out and placed a hand on his shoulder. “You would have remained true to who you are, my brother may have had a girlfriend but that doesn’t mean every now and then he didn’t get a little boy on boy action”
“Oh my god, you can’t say shit like that”
“What? What did I say” she asked innocently Blaine just smiled at her shaking his head in disbelief. “I love my brother Blaine and I hate what my so called God fearing parents did to him. I’m sure half the shit they said was in the bible was made up on the spot. For starters God doesn’t hate gays, God doesn’t hate anyone, that’s the whole point. I am glad your family didn’t do that to you”
“Thanks Annabelle, well it was nice talking to you, but I should head off I have a hot date tonight, don’t want to be late. By the way you’re not so bad when you aren’t trying to get into my pants” Blaine said grinning
“And your not so bad when your not on the defensive”
“Uh but I wouldn’t be on the defensive, if you weren’t trying to get in my pants”
“Fair point” she replied with a smile. They said their goodbyes and parted ways, Blaine heading to meet Kurt for their night out. And Blaine couldn’t wait.

Darnel
Darnel had just broken up with his girlfriend; he just couldn’t lie to her any more. He did care about her, after all they had started dating in their junior year and had been together ever since, her and her parents were one of those religious families, and she didn’t believe in sexual relations before marriage. So the fact that he wasn’t trying to get into her pants had never really come up. He figured that she thought he was just being a gentleman, but the truth was he had never thought of her that way. But lately things had changed and she was starting to get a little too serious for him. He had known he was gay before they started to date, but to make his dad happy he pretended not to be. And she had been all over him back then, she was on the cheerleading team and he had been on the school’s football team. It was what the school had expected of him, what his father had expected of him.
He had tried to see other girls as well, like that Harmony. But he only wound up hurting her, and leaving her at that club, leaving with Sebastian. Thank god she hadn’t seen who he left with, that could have made things way more awkward. Now he has become someone he doesn’t like, he cheated on his girlfriend, with a guy who had two boyfriends at the same time, and he did this knowing about them both. Even though he knows he should give him up and find someone else, he can’t.
He hated it, he hated that he couldn’t give Sebastian up, he hated that he had to hide who he was, and he hated that the only one in his family that hadn’t treated him differently was his twin sister. He loved her more than anything, it seemed like she was the only one who really cared about what he was doing. She was always trying to get him to be himself but he just couldn’t. She knew the truth. She knew what he got up to at night when he came home late. But she never said anything to their parents, she would just smile and wink and ask if he had fun.
Darnel always figured he was destined to be alone that being gay meant that he would never find love. His Father had told him that Gay men were nothing more the sexual deviants that were incapable of love, and of course Darnel believed him. His father knew best right? He knew what he was talking about when he had said this right? Because of this Darnel had become exactly what his father had described, a sexual deviant incapable of love… except he did love, had loved and had his heart broken.
Right now Darnel was confused and scared, he had all these feelings and he didn’t know what to do about them. It was killing him because as much as he wanted Sebastian to give up on Kurt and Blaine, he knew that right now he wouldn’t. And this just made Darnel’s heart ache, he had tried so hard to get Sebastian to realize what he wouldn’t let himself see. But nothing he did worked.
Just then his I-phone began to ring he picked it up and saw Dad on his caller id, he knew better then to ignore a call from his father so he tapped answer on the screen and put the phone to his ear.
“Hello Father” Darnel said as respectfully as he could
“Son, your mother just got a phone call from Hannah, who said that the two of you had broken up. Mind telling me why?”
“Because it wasn’t working out, we don’t really have that much in common”
“What has that got to do with anything? Do you think your mother and I have anything in common? She does what she is meant to do, she takes care of your brothers and keeps the house clean then she takes care of me. We don’t need to have anything in common. She keeps me happy, I let her buy whatever she wants”
“What about love? Surely you love one another? I don’t love Hannah, I don’t think I ever did”
“You don’t have to love her, you just have to marry her and give your mother grandchildren, like a normal man”
“I don’t want to marry her, and I don’t want to have kids with her, I don’t even want to have sex with her. And I fail to see how my relationship with Hannah has to do with you”
“Because I don’t want you falling back into your old ways, no son of mine will go around like some sexual deviant, shoving their abnormal ways in our faces”
“And what is that supposed to mean?”
“You know what I mean, don’t think I forgot about your little gay faze in high school”
“It wasn’t a faze dad. I tried being straight it didn’t work. Hannah has the right to be with someone who can give her what I can’t. You just don’t get it do you, we have every right to find love and be happy. People like me deserve the same rights as everyone else. Why should we have to fight so hard for what should be a given right for everyone, not just those that conform to what a small number of narrow minded fools believed was the norm? Why can’t you just accept me for who I am?”
The line was silent for a while Darnel held his breath and waited for what was to come.
“Don’t bother showing up for Christmas dinner” was all that was said before the line went dead.
