It was the first day of school for him. Not as a student but as a teacher. Blaine finished college a few months ago and found a job in Lima, Ohio. He never thought he would go back to Ohio where he grew up in Westerville. Things don't work like they should be most of the time. He went to New York for college and was glad to leave this boring place behind. But now he was back.
He got himself a nice house with a nice backyard. Ok, his parents paid for it since he couldn't safe up enough money during college. But he made a deal with them to pay them back and to attend dinner every Friday night at their house. He could live with that and didn't think it would be much of a problem for him. He loved his parents and they loved him. Unconditionally.
Blaine woke up quite way before his alarm clock was supposed to go off and started his new morning routine. He already chose his outfit for the day before he went to bed and didn't have to focus on that now. He took a shower, brushed his teeth and gelled his hair back just a little bit. He also put on his nerd-glasses which he preferred over wearing contacts. The feeling of wearing those wasn't much comfortable. And the glasses were quite easier to wear. For his outfit a chose a black and white striped shirt and a pair of tight fitting jeans. He wanted to look nice but not too nice. First impressions were important for him. And he wanted to make a good first impression on his first day of work.
When he was done he got in his car and drove to the Lima Bean to get his doses of coffee. He found this nice coffee place two weeks ago and he really liked it. He always came here when he needed a coffee or when a just wanted to relax. Usually he sat on a table at a booth and read. Sometimes he would look up and observe other customers. He even made up stories about them and smiled to himself when he was satisfied with his story. Of course he would never tell his stories. No he kept them to himself and just enjoyed his crazy mind.
When he arrived at the school he made his way straight to the principal office. Mr. Figgins was already waiting for him. "Welcome to McKinley High, Mr. Anderson. I'm glad you found your way to my office" he said. Blaine shook his hand and thanked him. "Thank you, Mr. Figgins. For the nice welcome and the job offering. I hope I'll not disappoint you!" They talked a little more, shook hands and Blaine made his way to his first lesson and class. His major subject was music. He was a nerd when it came to music. Blaine loves to sing and is able to play lots of instruments. Some people wouldn't even know the name of some of the instruments. In his free time he played some gigs at local bars and made quite a little fan base due through his music. People liked to hear him sing and play. Blaine was happy that he could make them satisfied and loved he was in the position to make other people happy with what he liked to do in his free time.
When Blaine was in college his big dream was to be a performer. He was the best in his class and even his professors liked him. He wasn't sure if performing was all he wanted to do. And his parents wanted that he had a proper profession to earn his money with. They saw him as a lawyer or a doctor. But since music was his passion he decided to go against his parents and to be a teacher for music and arts. His parents weren't happy about it but they got his back and supported him on his way all the time.
And so here he was. Ready to face his first class and he was quite nervous. He took one deep breath and recognized the loud voices from behind the door he was supposed to go in right now. He opened the door and watched the scene inside the room for a few seconds. He sighed and thought that this looks like fun. "Watch your language Mr. I-don't-know-your-name-yet!" he said in a calm voice and went to his desk. Blaine faced his class and looked directly at the troublemaker and studied him for a few seconds. Trying to remember his face. He should keep his face in mind just in case he would mean more trouble in the future.
He introduced himself to the class and let them introduce to him. He learned that the guy who was yelling when he entered the room was named Kurt. And that he had beautiful eyes. Wait, what? That's nothing he should think about right now. He wasn't even allowed to have those kinds of thoughts. He shook his head to clear it up. They moved on with introductions and the rest of his day went like this. He was introduced to a lot of people and he thought it wouldn't be easy to remember all of the names at once but he would try. He finished all of his classes and went home afterwards.
When Blaine entered the house it was like always. Quiet. Too quiet. And he didn't like this feeling. He sighed deeply and placed his keys on the counter next to his door. He took his shoes off and went to his office to put his bag down. His house was a little too big for himself. But he liked his place very much. Except for the quietness.
He was a little exhausted even if it was introductions most of the day. But he was glad, that everything went quiet well. His co-workers seemed really nice. At least the few he already met this day. His students seemed to be nice too and he really hoped that there wouldn't be any other incidents like the one in his first class of the day. Blaine didn't know why but he had a feeling that there would be some more trouble with this Hummel kid. He wasn't even sure how he handled the situation since it was his first one of this kind. He just did what he thought would be best and was kind of proud of himself that it worked out like this. All in all he was satisfied with his first day of school and was wondering how the rest of the school year would go.
He made himself something to eat and went over to his couch where he ate and watched some rerun of an old football game but didn't really pay attention to it. The result of the game was already familiar to him so he could tune out of it. He went through his day again and got back to the eyes he got lost in for a second. The eyes which reminded him of the ocean. Blue with a little splash of green but he wasn't sure which color was more present. At the beginning they were more blue than green and after Kurt introduced himself it was vice versa but he wasn't sure why it was like that. Maybe it was depending on his mood or emotions.
Blaine realized that he was thinking about those eyes again and thought that he was still not allowed to think about Kurt and his beautiful eyes like he did right now. Kurt was his student. Blaine was his teacher. And he was not supposed to even have those kinds of thoughts.
He decided to put all of this away, put the dishes in the dishwasher and decided to go to bed. He fell asleep immediately and dreamed of this pair of eyes. Eyes he wasn't allowed to dream of. But his mind was playing with him and he couldn't fight it.
