“What are you doing here James? I thought you were in Colorado with your grandparents?”
"I was, but Sebastian called me to come down to visit and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see my best friend!"
"Well I'm sure that Sebastian is ecstatic to have his best friend back." Kurt said with acid in his tone.
"Sebastian? Oh no, I came back for you."
Kurt was taken aback. He stepped a little behind as if the words hit him. “You. Came back. For me?”
“Of course I did silly.” James chuckled. “Why wouldn’t I want to come back and see you?”
“Oh maybe because we didn’t talk for weeks before you up and left. And if I remember correctly I have Sebastian to thank for that.” Kurt’s annoyance grew and grew as he stood in front of the boy he was once so close with. Now he was a stranger. A stranger who just waltzed his way back into Kurt’s life without warning. One who seemed so oblivious to the fact that he abandoned Kurt when he needed him the most.
“What do you have me to thank for?” Sebastian sauntered up with a sly and unsettling grin on his face. James turned to him and from what Kurt could see, there was almost a scowl on his lost friend’s face.
“Apparently you were the reason that Kurt and I didn’t talk much before I left.” James answered.
Kurt huffed. “Not apparently, you were the reason Sebastian. You just had to have him, didn’t you? The whores down at Scandals not enough for your STI ridden self?”
If Sebastian was affected by anything Kurt said, it certainly did not show on his face. “Aw, that’s cute. The little girl inside you is out to play. Does she still play with dollies?”
“Listen hear you two cent slut. Go run away to your hotel room, where someone is obviously waiting for you, and leave me alone.” Kurt’s tone dripped with hatred for the Meer cat-faced boy standing in front of him.
“Why don’t I just take your boyfriend and we can have a party?” Sebastian shot back.
“Wait, boyfriend?” James asked.
Blaine stepped forward from his place just behind Kurt. “Yeah, that would be me.” At the sound of his boyfriend’s voice, Kurt turned and watched as jealousy was evident on Blaine’s face. “And as unwelcoming as your offer is Sebastian, I’m not sorry to be saying no. Just move your ass out of my sight, and all will be well.”
Kurt smiled at his boyfriend’s choice of words and put his arm around the other boys waist.
“Okay wait, I’m confused. Kurt, you’re dating him?” James asked, his words sounding a little on the jealous side.
“Yes, this is my boyfriend Blaine, James. It’s not surprising you didn’t know, after all, it’s not like you stayed in touch or anything.”
“That wasn’t my fault. I’d be happy to explain to you what happened. In private.” James finished his sentence with a look shot to Blaine.
Kurt stared at James blankly for a few moments. Thoughts spun about in his head of what James could possibly have to say to explain himself. After all, it was pretty straightforward. James liked the attention that Sebastian was giving him and left Kurt to the dogs. He didn’t want to stand there and listen to James worm his way out of the situation, it wouldn’t be worth it. But did he really have a choice?
“Do you know what, I really shouldn’t let you talk, but I’m curious to see how the hell you will get yourself out of this one, so let’s go.”
“Kurt, are you sure about this?” Blaine asked in a whisper. Kurt just nodded his head and turned on his heal walking towards the corner of the theaters lobby. He could tell that James was following him, but didn’t bother to look and check. He stopped right behind one of the big trees that littered the area. It was the best place to be where they could hear each other and not be seen by many. Blaine was still in sight, but it looked like he was warding off Sebastian, which brought a tiny smile to Kurt’s face.
“So, what is so god damn important that you couldn’t say it in front of Blaine or Sebastian? Because, you know I’ll just end up telling Blaine anyways, he is my boyfriend after all.” Kurt spat out.
“So shorty over there actually is your boyfriend? Huh, you could do better.”
“I’ll take that as a compliment, but I’ll have you know, I love Blaine. It’s not puppy love either.”
“What do you love about him?” James asked with an unreadable expression on his face.
“I love his personality. He’s so fun and free and goofy. I love his Disney obsession and his love for musicals. I love his eyes that I just lose myself in. I love his curly hair that he barely lets down. I love his humour. I love him. I can’t put all of my feelings into words. He means the world to me and I would die if I lost him. He’s my rock. My better half. The best part is he was my best friend before we became a couple. We know everything about each other and that’s what makes us so strong as a couple.” Kurt finished with a glance over at his boyfriend who looked at the same time and shot Kurt and worried look.
“Wow, you really love this Blake kid.”
Kurt sighed. “Blaine, his name is Blaine.”
“I’m not good with names you know that.”
“Did you just want me over here to ask me questions about Blaine or was there something else? I don’t have all the time in the world. I have to go for dinner with Blaine and my parents and Finn.” Kurt was starting to get annoyed by James’ constant inquiries. It’s not like he really cared and Kurt knew it. “So if you could hurry up and say what you wanted, that would be great.”
“Ok, ok. Just let me collect my thoughts.” James looked down at his shoes and then back up at Kurt. His face was hard to read, but it looked like what he was going to say would pain him. The thought worried Kurt, what could he have to say that would be so bad? “So obviously you know I left because my parents found out I was gay. Well they found out because apparently Sebastian’s dad worked with my dad and yeah. I went to go live with my grandparents. I hope you know I never wanted to leave. I never wanted to leave you. And I’m sorry I wasn’t there for the last few months before I had to go, but it wasn’t my fault. It was just, Sebastian was so nice to me and I got the attention from him that you never gave me. The love I wanted from you, I got from him. Trust me, if I had the choice, it would have been you. It still would be.”
“J-James, what are you trying to say?”
“Kurt, I love you. I’ve loved you since I met you I think. The first time I saw you I knew you were the most beautiful boy I had ever seen. I had to have you. That’s why I became your friend in the first place, so we could get close and then eventually I saw us dating. I know you’re with Blaine, but that’s a new relationship, what we have beats that so much.”
Kurt stared at James with his mouth hanging open. He could not believe what was being said. James, his old best friend, was in love with him. The James he thought abandoned him for Sebastian in sophomore year. The James he had feelings for the entire time they were friends. This couldn’t be happening. Why was this happening now?
“Why now?” Kurt heard himself asking aloud.
James sighed and his murky brown eyes met Kurt’s startling blue ones. “Because I couldn’t stay away any longer. I had to come back to you. When Sebastian called me and told me you were dating Blaine and that you were happy, I had to see for myself what you found without me. I needed you to know you could be happy with me, that you will be happy with me.”
Before Kurt could say another word, lips were on his that were not meant to be. The only lips that should ever touch his were Blaine’s. Blaine. Kurt’s eyes shot open and the last thing he saw was Blaine running out of the doors with tears streaking his face. The next thing he knew, his hand made contact with James face in a wicked slap.
