Burt’s POV
“B … Blaine, wait!” He heard his son saying. He also heard the front door closing and a car leaving his grounds.
He tried to figure out what might have happened between those two, but couldn't find anything.
Burt got pretty worried for his son and listened for any signs from the kitchen.

Kurt stood in his kitchen. Shocked. His hands came up to his face and where Blaine - his teacher - just kissed him. He could still feel his lips there. As if the kiss wasn’t interrupted. At that moment he felt his knees giving in and sank down to the floor. He started sobbing immediately and couldn’t stop.
Burt heard his son crying and came in to cradle his son. It was tough for him to calm him down but he tried his best.
“Kurt, shhh. Shhhh. Calm down. Shhh. Everything will be ok. Shhhh…” Burt said to Kurt.
That made Kurt sob even more. The tears were running down his face and he couldn't stop them. He didnt even know what had happened and why he cried. He thought about the kiss again and really wanted to do it again. Wait? What? I want to kiss him again? What did he do to me?
Kurt lost focus on his thoughts when Burt wanted to know what happened with his teacher.
“Can you tell me what happened? What made you so upset all of the sudden? Did Blaine hurt you?”
“N...no. He didn’t hurt me. I … I guess. But…” Kurt said and couldn't finish his sentence.
"But what? Kurt you can tell me!” Burt assured him.
“ I don’t know. I mean I dont even know. I .. And he … Ugh, we …”
“You? What?”
“WeweretalkingandgettingsomethingtodrinksowedidthatandthenhekissedmenowwekissedandIdontknowhowIfeelaboutthis!” Kurt said in one rush without looking up.
“Woah, slow down a little, kiddo. Would ya? I didn’t get a word out of your little speech here!” Burt said with a little snicker.
And so Kurt repeated everything to his dad. From leaving to the kitchen to actually kissing his teacher…

It was hard to drive home with the tears streaming down his face. But he couldn’t stop. No, there was no way he could stop now. He had to go home. He couldn’t stand around this house any longer.
What have I done? Why? Just why? Why did I kiss him? He is still my student. And I am not allowed to get involved with my students. But the kiss… His lips. His soft lips. They were like heaven. And I really want to dive back in… No, stop it, Blaine. You can't do this.
He didn’t hear his phone ringing. He ignored STOP signs on his way and he crossed some red lights. Luckily for him he didn’t get in trouble for all of this.
When he arrived at his house he stayed in his car and stared out of the window. Tears were still running down his face. He took some deep breaths to try to calm himself down. Which didn’t work properly.
After a few more moments he got out of his car and went up to his house. The walk wasn’t long but he felt like it took forever.
He opened his door and immediately sank down to the floor in his entrance. The tears were flooding even more. And he couldn’t help it. He didn’t know what to do with himself anymore. His head was spinning.
Eventually he layed down on the floor and fell into a fitful sleep…
Burt’s POV
Kurt told him everything. About the kiss and his weird feelings he was having towards his teacher. He didn’t really know how is father might react.
“You know Kurt. Me and your mom always had a feeling that you might like boys more than girls. And … And I guess that kiss with Mr. A - no, Blaine - showed you and me how right we were about that. I mean … you … you asked about a pair of sensible heels for your third birthday. And you always liked to dress up with your mom…” Burt said. Still tightly holding on to his son.
Kurt listened to every word his father said and still sniffed at this. What? They always knew? I mean, I didn’t even know about this! WTH is going on here? Do I really like him? Him? As in my teacher? This can’t be happening. But I want to kiss him again. So badly. Blaine…
“Dad?”
“Yes, son.”
“What do you think about me having feelings for Blaine?”
“I … I think that if your hearts tells you that it felt right - and when I see you look like this I know you like him - then you should go for it. Of course the fact that he is your teacher is something I don’t like, but I won’t interact on it. That I promise you!”
Kurt began sobbing again. He loved his father so much. And what he just said to him made him happy. To know that his dad would support him - no matter what - made him smile. He hugged his dad pretty tight.
“Let me breathe, kiddo!” Burt said with a chuckle. But hugged him back just as tightly. He loved his son. And if said son was having feelings for another man he had no problem with that and would always support him.
“Dad, do you think it would be appreciated of me to go and see Blaine. I feel like I need to talk to him?”
“I guess, you should do that. From what I heard of his exit here he was pretty upset about himself. And I think he could use a hug, ok?”
Kurt just smiled to himself and kissed his dad on his cheek. “I love you so much, dad. Don’t ever forget that, K?”
He got up and went to his room. He needed to remove the stains on his face and get changed. All this crying wore him out. But he had a mission and wanted to see Mr. A, no Blaine, again. Like now.
BPOV
Blaine was still sleeping on the floor when he suddenly woke up due to some pretty hard knocking on his door. He felt miserable and shouted out to the person on the other side.
“Go away!”
But the person only kept knocking.
“B … Blaine, please. Open that door!” He heard Kurt saying. Wait, Kurt is here. What is he doing here. How does he know where I live? I knew it, I hurt him…
Blaine slowly got up from the floor and straightend out his clothes. He slowly opened the door and looked at the other boy.
“Blaine. Are … are you ok?” Kurt asked, not knowing what was allowed to ask in that moment. He looks miserable…. And it’s my fault.
“Do I look ok to you?” Blaine just asked.
“I … I’m sorry. But no. And it’s my fault! Can I … Can I come in?”
“I don’t know why, but sure…” And with that he opened the door for Kurt to step in.
The moment the door shut he felt arms around him. Holding him. Giving him an embrace he missed so much in a very long time. And not only in the last few hours.
He wanted to push the other man away. But he couldn’t. He felt so safe where he was right now. So he hold onto Kurt even more. Put his head on the other man's shoulder - as good as he could since Kurt was still taller than him - and sniffed his scent.
Gosh, how I love his smell. I guess I’m falling for this man… Too fast.
“What … What are you doing here?” Blaine asked after a while and letting go of Kurt very slowly. He didn’t know if it was the right thing to ask. But he really needed to know what his student was doing here, in his home.
“I … I … I needed … needed to …” But Kurt couldn’t finish his sentence - not the first time today - so he stepped closer to Blaine again, looked at the other man's lips and back to his eyes.
Blaine saw the look and knew exactly what was going to happen. At least he hoped for it to happen. Again.
So instead of waiting for Kurt to close the space between them, Blaine went in for another kiss.
Kurt didn’t pull back at this. He went for it just as Blaine did. He licked the other man’s underlip and Blaine opened his mouth a little. It was enough to put his tongue into it and he loved the feeling of that. He liked to kiss the other man.
After a few more minutes Kurt pulled back.
“I actually came here to talk!” But that feels nice as well…
Blaine was slightly flushed from all the kissing they just did and could cry again. Out of happiness.
“Oh, oh ok. Let’s talk then.” Blaine said and let them to his living room.
While walking there Kurt checked out his place and he really liked what he was seeing there.
“Your place looks amazing by the way! I like it!” Kurt told him.
Blaine flushed even more red at that and looked to the floor.
"Thanks, I guess.”
They sat down on the couch with a little distance between them.
“So.”
“So?”
"Hmmm, ok, where do I start?” Kurt asked himself.
“At … at the beginning? Maybe?” Blaine asked the other man.
He still couldn’t believe that they said in his living room. Both of them.
“I … I’m … I’m a little confused right now.”
“Of me?”
“Yes? No? See, I dunno.”
Blaine only laughed at that.
“Kurt, please. Calm down. It’s only us here right now…”
“... and that fact alone slightly freaks me out!”
“Just breathe!”
Kurt took some deep breaths and tried to clam himself down.
“I … I always thought I liked girls, you know? I mean I always dated girls but nothing really happened with them besides some kissing. I never went … you know. The whole way. But once there was this guy I met. It was during summer break and he was in town to visit some relatives. We met and connected immediately. We got to know each other. We went out to the movies, for dinner, you know. And we also kissed. It really confused me. And so … So did you. I mean not in a bad way, you know,. Gosh, I’m rambling now…!”
And with that he felt a hand on his leg. Slowly drawing patterns on it. Trying to calm him down. He smiled at Blaine to tell him that it was ok.
“Please keep going?” Blaine asked and looked him in the eyes.
“I … I felt so drawn to you the moment I first saw you to be honest. And I wanted to touch you, to kiss you, to just be with you! But I couldn’t find a reason to all of this. Until earlier, when you kissed me in my kitchen. I didn’t want that kiss to end. And I feel like what we did is wrong, but on the other hand I want it to happen all over again.”
Blaine took a deep breath when Kurt was finished with his rant. Earlier he put his hand on Kurt’s leg to calm him down. Luckily for him the other man didn’t notice that right away. When he did he just smiled at him.
“You know, for someone who didn’t know what to say you said quite a lot!” He said and tried to lighten the mood. Kurt only chuckled on that and blushed.
“Sorry!” He said and went his eyes to the floor.
“Don’t … don’t be. I mean I can only tell you that I liked you the moment I saw you for the first time. And I’m really happy that you wanted the same to be honest. But I’m sorry that I kissed you earlier. But I couldn’t help myself any longer.”
“Don’t feel sorry about that, Blaine. I’m actually glad you did that!”
“You are?”
“Yes, I am.”
And with that he went back to Blaine and kissed him once again. They stayed like that for the rest of the day. They watched a movie - no not Moulin Rouge - and cuddled on his couch. Neither of them talked about their feelings at that moment. They just enjoyed being in each other arms.
Not thinking about what all this might mean to them…
