Blaine arrives outside the address that Sebastian told him to, his hair ungelled and lacking a bowtie. He looks around for the other, hoping he hasn't been stood up.
Sebastian stumbles up behind Blaine, grinning.
"He-ey!"
Blaine turns around, offering Sebastian a slightly forced smile.
"Hey Sebastian. I'm going to have some catching up to do, aren't I?"
"Yeah, man, like a lot."
"Good thing I brought the SoCo then."
Blaine motions to his jacket.
"Man, that's awesome. Let's gooo, it's cold out here!"
"Lead the way!"
Sebastian leads Blaine to the building and up a few floors to Chandler's apartment.
"Duuuude, Blaine, welcome here!"
"Hey... um, what's up?"
"You are gonna have, like, the bestest time!"
"I really hope so."
Blaine pulls out his bottle of SoCo and holds it up a bit in front of him, a few overexcited cheers coming from the other side of the room.
"Dude, you are like, the best!"
"Chan, where's Wes?"
"You called? Oh, wow. Blaine?"
"Hey, Wes."
"Is Kurt here?"
"Since when does Kurt even come to these parties anymore? Blaine's actually fun."
"Blaine is fun. I know. You don't have to tell me abou-"
"Wes. Here. Do a shot with me?"
"Not gonna turn that down!"
"You two have fun."
"I'm gonna go talk to some of the other dudes, okay?"
"Yeah, sure. Sebastian, do a shot with us?"
"Come on Seb do a show with us."
"Alright, alright. Because you asked, Wes."
Wes grabs three solo cups from the stack on the table and sets them out, taking the bottle of SoCo from Blaine and emptying way more than a shot into each cup.
"Here Blaine. You need to catch up."
Blaine takes the cup, which obviously has more alcohol in it than the others, and holds it up for a toast as Wes hands one of the other two cups to Sebastian and takes the last for himself. Wes joins him in the toast formation.
"To this party."
Sebastian joins in the toast, watching Wes.
"To this party!"
Wes taps his cup against Blaine's and glances to Sebastian, tapping his cup as well.
Sebastian taps his cup again Wes's and Blaine's.
Blaine looks into his cup before closing his eyes and downing about half of what's in it.
"Man, I love SoCo."
Sebastian drowns what's in his cup, smirking at Blaine.
"Why haven't you been out here before?"
"I don't really know. I was never interested when Wes invited me, I guess."
"Well I'm glad you're interested now, man."
"Yeah, well, I don't really have anything else going on."
Blaine looks into his cup again, drinking the rest of it and looking to the bottle for more.
"Want some more?"
"Uh, yeah!"
"Well, of course you can have more. You brought the bottle."
Sebastian takes the bottle and pours more into all three cups.
Blaine drinks out of his immediately.
"Thanks. So, you guys, huh?"
"No, thank you. Yeah, us. What about us?"
"Can't believe I didn't find out about that sooner. Your whole ...thing."
"Y'know, neither can I, man."
"You were sort of wrapped up in Eli."
"Oh, yeah. That."
"And Kurt never figured it out cause he shuts out everything bad."
"I've noticed."
Blaine downs the rest of what's in his cup, obviously not wanting to talk about Kurt.
"Wes, we're gonna hang out later, right?"
"What kind of question is that? Rhetorical?"
Blaine ignores Sebastian's question, glancing back and forth between the other two.
"I should have had more than just coffee today."
"Just checking. Why'd you not eat?"
"Wasn't hungry. Well I was a little, but then K- I missed my window."
"You missed your window?"
"Yeah. Anyway..."
"That's a little weird. You should have something. Chan has some food out."
"Not hungry."
Blaine grabs the bottle of SoCo and drinks right from it.
Sebastian raises an eyebrow and shrugs.
"Whatever."
"What happened?"
"What? Nothing."
"Uh huh. You don't eat when you're upset. What happened?"
"Everything's fine, Wes. I'm just, I wanna drink, okay?"
"How stupid do you think I am? How long did we live together? How long have I known everything about you?"
"Shut up. I'm okay."
"Blaine."
"Weeesssss."
"I'm not your babysitter anymore."
"You never were."
"I've taken care of you a hundred times. But go ahead, have more SoCo. Since I don't have to babysit, I'll get to see you when you get fun."
"Pshh. I'm always fun, Wes."
"You're starting to get fun now, aren't you? They're dancing out there. Let's go."
"I love dancing."
Blaine looks hopefully to the other room, sets his cup down, grabs Wes's hand and, bringing the bottle along, pulls him toward the music.
Wes glances at Sebastian but follows after Blaine.
Sebastian stands silent throughout the entire conversation, glancing between the two. When Blaine drags Wes off, his eyes narrow and he follows after the two.
Blaine drags Wes right into the group of people dancing, takes a rather long swig from the bottle, which he then raises above his head with his other arm, and starts to dance, beckoning first to Wes and then to Sebastian to dance with him.
Sebastian stalks towards Wes and Blaine, sliding between the two once he reaches them, facing Wes.
Wes smirks and starts to dance with Blaine. When Sebastian slips between them, he puts his hands on his boyfriend's waist and pulls closer to him.
Not to be outdone, Blaine takes another sip of his SoCo and closes in on Sebastian, his free hand falling on the tallest of the three's hip.
Sebastian glances over his shoulder, smirking at Blaine.
Blaine is obviously having a good time, and when Sebastian glances back at him he winks, throwing a nod at Wes.
Wes shakes his head but looks to Sebastian.
Sebastian looks back at Wes and leans in, kissing him firmly. Pulling back, he glances back at Blaine.
"Mine."
Blaine raises an eyebrow and continues dancing on Sebastian. His hand slopily slides down a bit, and he pays it no attention.
Wes, however, notices Blaine's hand and moves his own to stop the other, still looking at Sebastian.
Sebastian hisses when he feels Blaine's hand moving and catches Wes's eyes, leaning in and kissing him again, this time messily.
Wes smirks and decides to leave Blaine's hand alone, instead focusing on kissing Sebastian, and pressing against him.
Blaine's hand is caught between Wes and Sebastian, and he doesn't make any moves to change that. Instead, he takes another sip and grinds into Sebastian.
Sebastian ignores Blaine in favour of pressing into Wes, although Blaine's actions do affect his body.
Blaine, tired of being ignored, as always, pulls his hand from between the other two and slides it across Sebastian's back as he moves around to try and get between them.
Sebastian hisses, pulling back from Wes to turn and stare at Blaine.
"What?"
Wes looks from Sebastian to Blaine, smirking.
"My Wes."
"Maybe I'm not after him."
"I'm his."
"I'll share. You guys gonna hang out?"
"Wes."
"Wessy."
"What?"
"Yeah. You know, whatever. Kurt left again. So whatever."
"He does that a lot."
"That would be why you didn't eat."
"We made up. For two hours. And he left."
"Sounds like him."
"How is that even fair?"
"It's not. But he's just like that. It's always so hard to get back with him after a fight. I'm glad I had someone else to go to."
"Yeah."
"You know, maybe we should talk about something else."
"Or drink."
"I like option Blaine."
"Waiiit, what?"
"You suggested we drink. I prefer that option."
"Oh yeah. Good idea."
Blaine lifts the bottle of SoCo, bottom in the air, to his lips.
Chandler's voice is heard excitedly from the door.
"Duuude, welcome! Glad you came out!"
"Wonder who that is."
"Well shit."
Blaine, still dancing a little, pulls the bottle down and looks around, his vision not as it normally is.
"Huh, what?"
"Wow. Never thought I'd see you here, Blaine."
"K-Kurt?"
"I'm out. Seb, wanna hang out?"
"As interesting as this could get, hanging out sounds great. Let's gooo, Wessy."
Wes drags Sebastian away.
Blaine holds the bottle of SoCo slightly behind himself.
"...Hi."
"You know, I went back to your apartment after I looked after Rachel. But you weren't there."
"You did?"
"Yeah. I actually wrapped things up with Rach rather quickly. And I brought supplies for pancakes with me. They're in your kitchen. But you were gone so I decided to come here and catch up with friends. And here you are."
"But... you left."
"Brody called Rachel. She was practically in tears. I was going to come back. And I did."
"You didn't say you were coming back. I... I thought..."
"You didn't trust me."
"I didn't think you'd be back."
"So you came here instead. And you're drinking."
"I was sad."
"That's your excuse? You were 'sad', so you came out to Chandler's party where Sebastian and Wes were inevitably going to be at? All because my best friend in the entire world needed me to come talk to her for a bit?"
"I'm tired of being alone allthetime! Wes was my only friend here till you and Rach-el. And Seb-astian."
"You're not alone all the time! I spent all afternoon hanging out with you! And we spent two hours into the evening making up... wait... did you just call Sebastian a friend of yours?"
"I spent the better part of a whole month alone. Really alone. And yeah. We spent two hours makingup, and it was the most fantastic thing thatsever happened to me, andthen you just ...left. And didn't tell me why."
"Rachel... she needed me. I didn't have time to explain."
"How hard would it havebeen... to jusst say Rachel needed you while you were getting dressed right after we made up for twoo houurs?"
"I really don't want to have this conversation when you're drunk."
"Well, I guessyou should jusst run awaay. Again. Like youalways do."
"I don't always run away!"
"You do when it's important!"
"NO I DON'T!"
"Yeahhokaay. Whatever."
Blaine overexaggerates rolling his eyes and tilts the bottle up to his mouth again.
"Stop it."
"You stop it."
"Stop drinking."
"Stop runningaway."
"I try not to."
"Yeah, well..."
"Right now, with you drinking, I'm super uncomfortable."
"It's not like I'm gonna get hurt oranything."
"I've told you before. I almost lost someone in an accident after they got drunk!"
"Kurt, when did that happen?"
"Seb...astian. I thought you were... but you know, when you got really hurt that time."
"What? I... oh. OH. Haha. Kurt. No. Man, that never happened. I was hanging out with Wes and stuff. Lots of fun. Wes is rough. But no. No drinking then. Haha. Oops, gotta find Wes!"
Sebastian laughs and stumbles off.
Kurt stares after Sebastian, confused.
"Um..."
"I'm so tired of hearing about themm hangingout."
"H-how could just hanging out get him that roughed up though? What were they doing?"
Blaine laughs.
"When theey say hangingout, it means sexxx, Kurt."
"...You have got to be kidding me."
Blaine keeps laughing.
"D-does this looklike the face... of a guy whoskidding youu?"
"W-wait. So all those times Seb said he was going to hang out with a friend..."
"Haaa Wes too!"
"Oh god, I think I'm going to be sick."
"You aren'teven drinking."
"Yeah, because I. Don't. Like. Drinking."
"Mayybe if you let go a little bit sometimes and had some fun sometimes you wouldn't freeak out so much."
"I can't believe you just said that."
"I cantbe held respon-sible."
"I really don't want to talk when you're drunk."
"Kurt."
Kurt turns to walk away, but turns back at Blaine voice.
"What?"
"Deal with the problem."
"I will. When you're sober."
"Then run away. Like youalways do."
Slightly disappointed, Blaine sets the bottle on the nearest table and heads toward the exit.
"I don't always run away."
Kurt walks in the opposite direction, going to talk with someone he knows.
Blaine makes it to the exit, and doesn't look behind him. He opens the door, grabbing his coat from a pile of them, and going into the hallway. He staggers a few feet and holds his hand out to steady himself on the wall.
Chandler walks over to Kurt.
"Duuuude, glad you're here! You and your boyfriend can hang out!"
"Actually, no. Blaine just left. I'm going to stick around for a bit, though."
"Alrighty, dude!"
"Kurt, where did Blaine go?"
"I don't know. I didn't come with him, so I'm not responsible for him."
"Ouch. He was really, really drunk. I mean... really drunk."
"Yeah, well I don't like dealing with drunk people. It's why I stopped coming to Chandler's parties so often."
"Wow. I guess I'll take care of it then."
Wes turns to look around the room for Sebastian.
"Be my guest. Oh, hey Ethan!"
Kurt walks briskly away from Wes.
Sebastian comes stumbling towards Wes.
"Heeey, Wessy. Wanna hang out some more?"
"Can't. I gotta go run an errand. I'll be back, alright? And then I'll take care of you."
"Awwwwww but Wessy..."
Sebastian pulls Wes towards him for a sloppy kiss.
Wes leans into Sebastian, returning the kiss and backing the other to the wall.
Sebastian smirks into the kiss.
Wes pulls back, smirking himself.
"You. Stay here."
"Kay."
Wes leans in and bites Sebastian's ear, then pushing away and turning toward the door, finding his coat in the pile, and glancing to Kurt.
Kurt doesn't pay attention to Wes or Sebastian, instead talking to a friend.
Shaking his head, Wes exits the apartment, finding Blaine immediately.
Blaine stumbles along the wall, his hand sliding along as he tries to steady himself while walking toward the stairs.
"Blaine."
Blaine continues walking.
Wes jogs a little to catch up.
"Blaine."
"What? Wes?"
"Where are you going?"
"Away."
"You can't just go away without telling someone."
"Thoughtyou we-ren't my baabysitter?"
"Looks like I am."
"Youcan stop. I'm old enough totakecare of myself. I'm gonnabe twenntytwoin like a couple weeks."
"Not if you walk out in front of a bus with your drunk ass tonight."
"Whatever."
"Blaine. Stop."
Wes reaches out and grabs Blaine's arm.
Blaine stumbles to a stop and squints at Wes.
"Kurt doesn't care ifI go. So, I don't care."
"I care if you go."
"What do you matter?"
"If you weren't completely wasted, I might be offended. Come on. I'll take you home."
"I'm not compl-"
"Yes. You are. Come on, I'm going to get you a cab."
"I don'twant a cab."
"I'm not walking you all the way back."
"Itsonly like two blocks."
"Fine, but only because you might puke."
Wes puts his arm around Blaine, who shoves him away.
"I dontneed you towalk."
"Okay, fine."

Their lack of communication whenever ithere is an issue is getting rather boring. Those boys are never going to get together at this rate, I am starting to think they are better off without each other, all they are doing is constantly hurting the other.
