Blaine could barely contain his excitement. Trying to contain complete composure, he took Kurt's hand once more and squeezed it so tightly, that Kurt squealed at the continuous strength being pressured on his fingers. Rachel beamed at Finn, who was silently chuckling at the amount of pleased expressions around him. Although he and Blaine had had their differences in the past, he couldn't help but feel anxious for the boy who had supported his step-brother for so long. Blaine always seemed so, so put-together. But after realising Kurt was to leave him for New York, Finn saw a completely different side to Blaine - even worse than his little anger outburst at Finn in the locker room, when he mentioned something about a branch of fight club. I'm still a little worried about that...Finn thought. But Blaine's reaction was completely different this time round. For one thing, he wasn't beating up a boxing bag whilst imagining it being Sam and Finn's faces. Blaine almost looked dead. Like he wasn't going to be able to pull through his senior year at McKinley without Kurt. Finn understood, of course. No one in their right mind would want to spend their senior year alone in a high school where everything just seems to suck. Finn learnt that the hard way. But seeing Blaine happy for the first time since before graduation, Finn couldn't help but smile brightly.
"Well..." Amelia sighed, "I suppose I should let you guys get going. I know you have a long drive back to Lima."
Blaine's grin disappeared as quickly as it appeared. He had just been reunited with the girl who stood by him through thick and thin since they first met at only 8 years old. All he wanted to do was stay with her for a few more hours so they could tell Kurt all about their shenanigans growing up. There was so much to tell him, and so much to tell her. Yet, here she was, leaving him again. Amelia noticed his lack of response, and flashed him a dazzling smile.
"Don't worry Hun! You'll see me next week! You better take good care of me on my first day. Although I shouldn't be too worried. I've heard you're amazing at taking care of new kids" she winked.
Kurt turned deep crimson, whilst Blaine rolled his eyes at Amelia, who was giddy with glee at Kurt's reaction. Amelia took Finn's hand and shook it enthusiastically, and did the same to Rachel. "So lovely to meet you both! Good luck in New York Rachel! Can't wait to see you and Kurt take over Broadway in the near-future!" Rachel's cheeks blushed at Amelia's sweet comment. What a sweetheart! I really was too harsh on this girl. Rachel pondered as Amelia turned to Kurt and placed her hand out, prompting him to take it. Kurt stared at the hand in front of him, then glanced back at Blaine, who was watching him with cautious eyes. Blaine hadn't even considered how Kurt would react to his and Amelia's history, and Kurt's poker face wasn't helping him find out. Finally, Kurt turned to Amelia and pushed her hand down, placing it by her side. Puzzled by the action, Amelia's gaze and smile dropped, as she began to feel awkward as silence surrounded her. Soon, that disappeared when Kurt offered both arms out to Amelia with an adorable grin, in which she surprisingly giggled and reciprocated the action. As they took each other in a tight embrace, Blaine smiled widely at the two.
"Take good care of Blaine for me. I'm so glad you're here to stay with him..." Kurt whispered in Amelia's ear. Now, it was her turn to blush.
"Kurt, trust me, you have nothing to worry about. Just enjoy New York, and I'll make sure that Blaine Skype's you every night!" Amelia increasing in volume at the end of her sentence so Blaine could hear loud and clear, whilst pulling away from Kurt's heart-warming hug.
"Just try and stop me..." Blaine smirked.
"See you next week, B!"
"Bye"
Kurt stared at the two, still trying to process the pairs some-what close relationship he had only just found out about.
"I will explain everything in the car..." Blaine smiled as he waved to Amelia who was retreating back to the crowd of overexcited Warblers.
"You most certainly will..."
"I cannot believe she's back! Did you see her? She just gets more and more incredible every time I hear her sing! And those dance moves! My GOD! I knew she was professionally trained, but jeeze. She could give Mike a run for his money!"
Blaine continued to natter away to Kurt, who smiled broadly at his excited boyfriend. How he was able to be this excited whilst still driving the car was astounding to Kurt.
"So, how did you guys first meet exactly?"
"Well," Blaine began, "we first met at a Summer Camp in London for the Gifted and Talented Youth's in Music Program. It was my dad's idea. He had heard me sing in school recitals and such, and Cooper attended the camp for a while, but he felt that I should get some more practice at an early age. As my Uncle Phil lives in London, I stayed with him when I auditioned for it. Amazingly, I was accepted in, along with Amelia and another boy. We had the opportunity to attend the camp for free. After that, the rest is history. She told me that she kept switching from living in London to Westerville, as her parent's divorced when she was 5. And, occasionally, she stayed in Lima with her grandmother. Back then, she spent most of her time in Westerville, which of course, was because of me. We did everything together, we were so close! Her older sister even dated Cooper for a while, which brought us even closer. She attended school in London, but every break she had, she flew to Westerville to be with me.
"Did you know she was the first person I came out to? It was whilst having a Disney Movie Marathon at my house." Blaine chuckled, "She wasn't surprised when I told her I was gay. It had to happen sooner or later, she said. We were 11 when I told her. I wasn't quite ready to tell my family, but she was just incredible. She just, completely accepted me for who I was. She went through everything with me. She even pretended to be my girlfriend when we were 13 to avoid facing bullies and, especially, my dad.”
“I thought you said you’d never been anyone’s boyfriend?” Kurt winked.
“Technically, being a fake boyfriend doesn’t count.” Blaine smiled. “But, when the time came to tell my family the truth, my dad went crazy, of course. Told me that I was too young to decide who I should love or not. Amelia wasn't there when I came out, but I wished she was."
Kurt nodded, completely enthralled by Blaine and Amelia's story.
"My Dad tried to force her on me. He always thought that we would make such a perfect couple. She resisted, which only made my father pursue more. It was when he tried to pay her to take me on a date that she told him that enough was enough. She told him that she accepted my sexuality and loved me as nothing more than a friend. My Dad was far from happy, especially after she told him what a "stupid, homophobic twat" he was being."
"After that, my Dad had enough. He called her father, and told him that she was an incredibly bad influence on me, for accepting who I was and being OK with it. Amelia's father liked me, but was absolutely terrified of my father. He obliged, and told Amelia to never go near me again..." Blaine trailed off.
"Oh, Blaine, I'm so sorry." Kurt placed his hand on Blaine's knee and gave it a gentle squeeze. Blaine continued.
"Amelia thought it was ridiculous that she was to stay away from me, so began to sneak around in order to see me. I hated watching her lie to her Dad, but she brushed it aside and told me it was no big deal. And it wasn't; until her father found me in her room one evening doing homework with her.
"He kicked me out, leaving just Amelia and him alone. All I remember was hearing them argue as I walked home. They were yelling at each other so loudly; he was threatening her. I wanted to go back and help her, but I kept walking. I knew that if I went back, I would only make it worse.
"That's when I realised I was being selfish. I was ruining her relationship with her father. I called her later that night to tell her that it was safer for both of us if we stopped hanging out together. But before I could, she cried on the phone to me, telling me that her Dad was sending her to live with her mom in London permanently.
"It was awful, Kurt. She was so upset, so scared and I couldn't do anything about it!" Blaine croaked, feeling his throat tighten at the whirlwind of emotion he had just let loose inside himself. Kurt hated seeing Blaine so hurt. He wanted to kiss Blaine, hold him and tell him that everything was going to be OK. But as Blaine was still driving, he held himself back, rubbing his hand soothingly over his knee.
"It's OK, Blaine..." he whispered. Blaine nodded and continued.
"She lived with her Mom for about 2 years, and in that time, things began to develop, you know, bullying wise. She hated being so far away from me, and hated living with her mom, so convinced her father to let her come and visit him for Christmas vacation. That's when we sang at that event. My Dad agreed as he hoped that we may "rekindle" the budding romance between us, which amused Amelia and me for weeks. Still, he hoped I'd fall for her. Little did he know, I was already smitten with someone else..." Blaine smiled and winked at Kurt, causing him to blush a deep scarlet.
"She wasn't able to come visit at all last year, something to do with her Mom. But, because of my father, I wasn't able to talk about her, ever. That's why I've never mentioned her to you until now. But now that she is officially back..."
Blaine stopped suddenly, looking at Kurt's poker face. Kurt was simply so enticed by the story, he didn't even realise that his face made it look as if he was tired of hearing of the girl who had made Blaine's day.
"Sorry," Blaine muttered, "I know I keep going on about her. It's just; I was destroyed when she went back to the U.K. Just seeing her again made me so excited. And then she tells me that she is attending McKinley this year! I just..." Blaine sighed, as he pulled up to Kurt's drive. Even when he turned the engine off, Kurt still didn't move from his seat. Blaine turned to him with an apologetic expression that made Kurt's stomach fill with fluttering butterflies. Blaine finally exploded, "- I really am sorry. Tonight was supposed to be a treat for you, yet I made it about me. And that was wrong, and I feel awful because I know you didn't enjoy yourself throughout the duration, and you're leaving for New York on Monday and -"
"- Blaine!" Kurt yelled, grabbing Blaine's hand, noticing a single tear rolling down his boyfriend’s cheek. "Sweetie, what's wrong?"
"I just -" he sobbed, "- I just didn't want you to think that I'm happy about you leaving. I know that it's what you want, and it's what you're meant to do, you are meant to be a star. It's just; I really wish we could do it together. But my stupid age is keeping us apart, and I don't want that. But I'm trying to accept it. And after seeing Amelia, she made me so happy, knowing that I would have her with me to speed up Senior Year, making it pass quickly so I can join you out in New York as soon as the graduation ceremony finishes." Kurt smiled slightly at his emotional hero, wiping away a single tear that had escaped from his eye. Blaine placed his hand on Kurt's knee and started deeply into Kurt's bright blue, teary eyes. "I just don't want you leaving for New York thinking that I'm not going to miss you because I have her with me. She is not your replacement Kurt, and she never will be. You are my only love, Kurt. And even though we are going to be miles apart throughout the year, I will always be with you. I will always support you in all of your endeavours. I will always be only a plane ride away. I will always love you."
Kurt honestly felt his heart stop, as more and more tears escaped from the boy's eyes. He leapt out of his seat and grabbed Blaine in the tightest hug he'd ever given him. Both boys remained silent for a while, taking this moment just to remember how they are right now. Together, and completely and utterly in love.
"Remember what I told you when I left Dalton?" Kurt whispered "I'll never say goodbye to you", Blaine smiled, remembering that day when Kurt transferred back to McKinley. He'd never seen Kurt smile so much, being back with his friends. Blaine looked down, but Kurt refused to loose contact, so he placed his forehead against Blaine's, staring at his perfect face. "That still remains, Blaine. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You encouraged me to achieve my dreams, and you helped me find my inner strength to fight those Neanderthals into oblivion. Even being accepted into NYADA can't compare to the day that I met you. I love you Blaine, and I always will. Of course, I will miss you like crazy. But I'm not worried about you. Amelia is a sweet girl, and you guys are obviously very close and have been through a lot together; so I'm not worried. Just promise me that you'll call me everyday and keep me updated with the New Directions. And you better call me! Or else!" he winked. Blaine laughed and wiped his eyes.
Kurt then pulled Blaine into what started as a sweet little peck on the lips, which quickly developed into a deep, passionate kiss. Blaine placed his hands on Kurt's neck and jaw line, keeping him firmly attached to him whilst they continued kissing for what felt like forever. They shifted, somehow, into a different position; mainly for Kurt to get an easier access to Blaine’s delicious lips. Kurt straddled Blaine’s lap, kissing feverishly at his jaw line and neck, making Blaine moan embarrassingly loudly. Kurt giggled and continued placing sloppy kisses to every bit of exposed skin he could find. Blaine caressed Kurt’s ass, wanting him as close to him as possible. Lust and heat was all that surrounded the boys, both wanting to burn in the fire of passion and pure want they had created. Kurt returned to pay special attention to his boyfriend’s mouth, kissing him deeply, exploring his mouth with his tongue; never wanting to pull away. He could spend all night kissing Blaine if he had his way. Unfortunately, Kurt's phone started buzzing in his pocket, ruining the mood entirely.
Groaning, Kurt pulled away from Blaine, who wasn't going to be denied that easy, as Blaine began placing wet and sloppy kisses along Kurt's jaw line, causing little giggles to escape Kurt's mouth as he answered his phone, too distracted by Blaine’s mouth to realise who was actually calling.
"Hello?" Kurt tittered, as Blaine continued to suck on a sensitive spot on his neck.
"Kurt? Where are you? It's getting real late, and you're still not home?"
Kurt's face dropped, and Blaine heard his breathing hitch as he realised the all too familiar voice on the other end of the line.
"Dad! Uh, we're outside, have only just got home. I'll be inside in a moment..."
"Ok. But be quick, Carole and I have an early morning ahead, we need to get some sleep."
Kurt hung up his phone, and slid off of a breathless Blaine. He turned to give Blaine one final goodnight kiss, before jumping out of the car. Blaine watched him walk around to his side of the car, and started to roll down his window. Kurt poked his head inside and said:
"I'll see you on Monday. Text me when you're home."
"Of course." Blaine smiled as he watched Kurt run towards his front door.
