Kisses. A lot of sweet and sloppy kisses under the bright sunshine. Yes, Kurt thought, that’s how the whole summer should have been. But hey, they had another month to keep that up.

So Kurt and Blaine were sitting at the park’s swings, where they came, to talk, but neither of them hadn’t said a word since the arriving.  They had tugged each other’s swings close enough to reach for the contact they needed.

“As much,” Blaine mumbled between the kisses. “as I’d love to,” kiss “to continue,” kiss “we both,” kiss “need air.”

“You sure?” Kurt asked, as they didn’t stop.

Blaine didn’t answer, he just deepened the kiss. They were panting, when they finally broke the kiss. Their faces stayed close and hands were tangled.

“I don’t think, that I will ever forgive myself,” Blaine spoke into the silence.

“What?”

“Putting you through that hell with those past few days, just because I couldn’t translate my own feelings.”

Kurt smiled as he grabbed Blaine’s hands tighter.

“Don’t worry,” Kurt said. “I know how it can be. It’s not like I really understood mine nether.” Kurt stopped for a second, before continuing. “The last week.. was really confusing to me. When I told my dad, that I had met Mercedes, he kind of.. promised me that, if I keep up with that.. social life kind of thing, he would let me off the hook with the work. And the first thing I thought about was that I really didn’t want that, because work meant you. But as he allowed me to stay home on Monday I remembered, why I liked to stay all alone in my room all day at the first place. I guess that's when I realized how close we've become over these last weeks and I felt, like I should tell more about myself. You know.. about all that, what I don't want to talk about. And I kind of freaked out a little and that's why I was so upset, when my dad told me, that I would have to keep working.”

Blaine was looking directly into Kurt’s eyes.

“Just thought, that you should know, since I hadn’t told you that part,” Kurt added then. “But uhm, I didn't realize how much I really like you, until this weekend, when I understood, what is my life without you. And then I thought, that maybe I do trust you enough to talk about this year and this is were I actually got that.. feelings part..”

And now was Blaine the one, who smiled shyly. Kurt's throat was try and he couldn't say anything else.

“Do you mind walking?” he asked and stood up, giving Kurt his hand. Kurt let Blaine hold his hand carefully, as they walked through the park.

“I did care about you, a lot,” Blaine said then and their eyes met once again. “But I was too busy with this fear to screw this up to actually look up to the truth.” Blaine stopped walking. “And the truth is that I really wanted to do this.” And he pressed his lips against Kurt’s once again. Kurt smiled under Blaine’s lips. “If you don’t mind, I might start doing that a lot.”

Kurt’s stomach was filled with happy butterflies as he slowly started to understand, that this is how Blaine asked him to be his boyfriend.

“I think I don’t.”

They stood and kissed for a while as they both were really thankful for the fact, that the park was almost empty, so they didn’t have deal with homophobic people. They were together and this moment was perfect and nothing else mattered.

“It’s a great ending for these weird days.”

“That’s the polite statement,” Blaine answers. “But yes, it is. We got each other out of it.”

Kurt’s smile grew even wider and he had to stop that, because he probably looked weird already.

“And by the way,” Blaine continued, as they started walking again. “I don’t want you to tell me anything about yourself, if you’re not comfortable.”

Kurt’s phone started ringing and he had to let go of Blaine’s hand as he found it in his pocket.

“Kurt, I know you’re with Mercedes, but you still have to show up at the garage..” Burt’s kind of angry voice echoed through the phone.

“Oh,” Kurt signed and looked at Blaine with a sorry look. “Uhm, yes, sorry. I’ll be there.”

Kurt ended the call and stared at Blaine. “Do you have to garage?” Blaine asked. Kurt nodded, because words were still a little awkward between them. “Do you think that Burt will take me back?”

Kurt couldn’t help but jump at Blaine and grab him into a hug. It was a bit surprising to Blaine, but he hugged back.

“Hi dad, sorry I’m late,” Kurt hailed when they arrived to garage, hands still tangled together.

“Where the hell have you been?!” Burt asked when he pulled his head, quite literally, out of the car’s engine. Then he saw it. Boys, holding each other’s hands and smiling brightly, as it would be the happiest day of their life.

“Sorry, “ Kurt apologized again, as Burt looked at them hazily. “Where do you need me?”

“Uhm, I think Finn needs help,” Burt answered, but didn’t blink once.

Kurt was the one who had to let go of Blaine’s had again as he walked over Finn, who had also been staring at them, leaving Blaine and Burt alone.

Kurt didn’t hear over the drill, that one of the usual workers used behind them, what Blaine and Burt said to each other, but when they started working over the car together, Kurt concluded, that Blaine was hired again.

Burt asked Blaine to join their family usual dinner, when they closed the shop. Kurt was little frightened of that idea at first, so Blaine doubted, when he saw Kurt’s reaction.

“Of course you should come,” Kurt said then, with a lot more confidence.

“You sure, you’re okay with it?” Blaine asked and his worry made Kurt’s heart swell. “I mean, I don’t want you to be uncomfortable, we all remember how the last dinner ended.”

“Yes of course, I’m okay,” Kurt assured and realized then, that Burt was watching, and listening them talk, since he wasn’t so far away from them.

So it was settled. Kurt and Blaine drove with silence in Blaine’s car, since Kurt hadn’t used his this day and Burt and Finn drove in Burt’s car. No one needed to say anything, Kurt’s day had been filled with happiness, he wasn’t even sure, if this was reality. He wondered, if he’s just stuck in some kind of dream. He really didn’t want this dream to end.

When they sat by the table, Blaine, Finn and Burt started talking about the football again. Although, it felt a lot like the last time, that Blaine had been there, Kurt didn’t really mind.  This time Kurt was really busy with smiling, just like Carole, as he allowed himself to look Blaine.

“So are you two like a..couple now?” Finn asked.

Kurt choke. “Wow, Finn,” he coughed. “You really do now how to ask stuff, don’t you?”

Blaine chuckled, clearly trying not to start laughing. The awkwardness of this situation lasted.

“Well, are you?” Burt asked as well and Carole shot him a disapproval look.

“Dad, you’re making this kind of awkward,” Kurt answered blushing and ignored looking at Blaine.

“I think,” Blaine said then with a voice full of confident. “It’s safe to say, that we are.”

Kurt smiled and turned for a second to look at his boyfriend, who smiled back to him and took his hand to hold.

“As I have to admit,” Blaine told that night at the doorstep, about to head home, when they said goodbye. “This was a really beautiful and happy day, I hadn’t sleep in days so I’m probably going to fall for my bed as soon as I get home.”

“I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels that way,” Kurt laughed and relayed on the door.

“I’ll call you in the morning. Or text you. I’ll pick you up, then buy you a coffee and then we’ll head to the garage, if it’s okay to you.”

“Sounds lovely.”

With that, Blaine moved closer to Kurt and kissed him tenderly. And Kurt kissed back. He had kind of missed that from the morning. It was a sweet goodbye kiss, that unfortunately had to end.

“See you in the morning, Kurt,” Blaine smiled then, still close to his face.

“Goodnight.”

Blaine pulled away and turned to his car, as Kurt watched him go. This night, a nice sleep was granted for both of them.
