Author's Notes: Kurt swallowed hard at the messages from his dad and looked at the one from Mercedes.
Cedes: Kurt, I am so sorry. Call me when you get this.
Kurt felt his breath hitch in his throat as Blaine’s arms wrapped around his waist, lips kissing under the boy’s ear.

“Morning baby” he breathed and looked at Kurt’s phone, “Anything new?” he asked and Kurt sniffed.

“My Dad… he knows about us” he breathed and Blaine immediately tensed.

“What?” he asked as he pulled away from Kurt, the boy turning around in his arms.

“He knows… I... I forgot to call him last night and… Mercedes told him everything” he breathed and felt the tears start to leave his eyes. He felt sick, angry, sad and confused all at once.

“I… I’m so sorry” Kurt sobbed and Blaine took the boy into his arms, kissing the top of his head as Kurt sobbed into his shirt. Blaine felt like crying himself, but he couldn’t. He didn’t have the time. He needed to think, to come up with a damn good reason as to why he had just slept with one of his students.

Because he’s the best thing to happen to me and I love him.

Burt Hummel would shoot him before the words could even escape his lips.

“You need to go home” Blaine swallowed and Kurt looked up.

“W…what?” he breathed and wiped his eyes, pulling away from Blaine as his hands shook “Why?” he breathed again and Blaine sighed.

“Because you need to see your Dad…”

“Are you breaking up with me?” Kurt squeaked, his eyes red and wide. “Because… last night was the best night of my life Blaine! You can’t just dismiss me! I.. I…”

“Kurt!” Blaine cried and silenced the boy, taking his hands in his own, his thumbs gently rubbing over the top of Kurt’s hands.

“Baby… I’m not breaking up with you. Last night…. Was perfect okay? It was amazing, and I love you too. But you need to go and sort all of this out with your dad, and I need to prepare to… lose my job for this” Blaine sighed and Kurt sobbed gently.

“I’m sorry…”

“Don’t be. I brought this on myself. Look… get dressed and just… hear what your dad has to say. Call me when it’s over okay?” Blaine swallowed. “And I can come over and…. Talk to him” he nodded and kissed Kurt’s lips softly.

“I love you” he breathed and Kurt swallowed, wiping his eyes before he kissed Blaine back, holding him close for a moment before he pulled back and tried to breathe properly, his stomach churning at this point. He sighed and went to get dressed, handing Blaine his hoodie back.

“Keep it” he sighed and Kurt shook his head.

“I… I can’t. My Dad will ask questions and I just… I can’t” he sighed and folded the hoodie, setting it down on Blaine’s couch.

“Okay. I don’t see the point in me having it here. Your Dad already knows about us” Blaine sighed as Kurt picked up his bag, grabbing out his keys.

“Look… I’ll call you okay?” he sniffed and kissed his boyfriend softly.

“I love you” he smiled and headed out into the hall, trying not to cry. Blaine stood in his doorway and ran a hand through his curls.

“I love you too Kurt” he breathed as he watched him leave.

*****

Kurt sat on the couch, his lip trembling as he avoided his father’s harsh gaze.

“Kurt…You know I love you and I trust you… but this… you should have told me” Burt huffed and Kurt swallowed.

“I’m sorry… Dad I’m really sorry, but… It’s something I want” Kurt sniffed and Burt sighed.

“You’re 18 now and I can’t stop you… but I want you to be responsible okay?” Burt sighed and leant forward. “And that means calling me and telling me where you are… making sure you don’t…. drink and drive. And that you always have a friend with you” He sighed and Kurt blinked.

“A friend…. Dad that’s… what?” Kurt asked and Burt sighed.

“Look Kurt, I was so worried last night, I had no idea where you were, so I called Mercedes and she told me everything” Burt sighed and looked at his son. “Why didn’t you tell me?” he asked and Kurt swallowed.

“I knew you’d never approve Dad” he sniffed and Burt nodded.

“It’s true… I don’t approve but you’re young. You deserve to have some fun… but… limited and guided fun.” He huffed and Kurt frowned a little.

“Dad… I’m actually really confused… what did Mercedes tell you?” Kurt mused with a raised brow, trying to focus on how this related at all to his forbidden relationship with his teacher.

Burt nodded and sighed.

“Mercedes told me that…you were out at… a bar” Burt sighed. “And that’s fine with me Kurt… I don’t want you drinking a whole load though okay? I understand you’re 18 but you aren’t yet the legal age. And I don’t want to know how you got a fake ID but… I trust you kid. Just… be safe and… don’t throw yourself around okay?” Burt looked at Kurt and the boy let out a deep sigh.

“Oh… yeah... Dad… I… of course” he nodded and felt his heart start to beat normally again. Thank god for Mercedes.

“So… where did you stay last night?” Burt asked and Kurt sighed.

“Oh… um... at Rachel’s” He lied. “She came with me” he hummed and ran a hand through his hair. So his dad didn’t know about Blaine? He let out a soft breath before he looked at his Dad.

“I… I should go and shower before school starts” he nodded and stood.

“Dad… I... thank you” Kurt smiled and moved over to Burt, hugging the man gently before he hurried upstairs, feeling a great deal just roll off his shoulders. He grabbed his phone out of his pocket and sent a text to Blaine before he slipped into the shower, thanking his lucky stars. He showered and stepped out, smiling gently as he looked at himself in the mirror. His chest and hips were riddled with wonderful light red and purple marks. He let his fingers brush over them and his cheeks blushed at the memories of how Blaine’s lips had explored these places, leaving their mark in Kurt in a way that made him feel absolutely dizzy in pleasure. He giggled to himself and got dressed, headed down the stairs happily.

“Bye Dad!” he called and headed out the door to his car, stopping off at the lima bean to grab a coffee for himself and Mercedes.

*****

Blaine sat in his classroom, downing a coffee so fast it scolded his throat but he didn’t care, because right now he was just thankful that he hadn’t been caught.

“Mr A…” Mercedes sighed as he knocked on the classroom door, Blaine looking up at her.

“Mercedes… I wanted to talk to you… and thank you…

“You need to break up with Kurt” Mercedes sighed and closed the door behind her as Blaine set down his coffee.

“Alright? May I ask why?” he mused and Mercedes sighed.

“I just spent the entire cooking class I have with Kurt, listening to how amazing his night was with you, and whilst he didn’t tell me… specifics…. I can guess. And Kurt….he almost got caught and pretty soon I’m going to run out of excuses to tell his dad. And I like you Mr A… I don’t want you getting fired or… jailed. And I don’t want to see my best friend hurt. I know this sounds harsh but… Kurt deserves someone who he can flaunt and boast about. It was killing him today, talking in whispers to me. He needs someone who can share proudly and…. So do you. This isn’t healthy for anyone involved.” Mercedes sighed and Blaine nodded.

“Mercedes, I’ve thought about all of that. And I… I was going to break up with Kurt but… I can’t. I can’t because I love him and that’s the truth. And I don’t want this to hurt him, but he’s strong minded…”

“So be stronger” Mercedes sighed and Blaine nodded.

“Okay… I’ll take on board what you’re saying to me…”

“I’ll give you until after sectionals Mr A… then I’m going to Mr Hummel and telling him. It’s for Kurt. It’s best for Kurt” Mercedes nodded and Blaine sighed.

“Mercedes….”

“If you love him, and he loves you… Date him after he graduates” Mercedes sighed and moved back toward the door.

“I’m sorry for doing this… But I need to, for Kurt” Mercedes nodded and with that she left, leaving Blaine alone and completely torn.


What was he going to tell Kurt?
