Chapter Three
Blaine felt like an impatient child when he rose the next morning, getting a good night's sleep hadnt been easy, but now he felt refreshed and ready to start another chapter of his life, one with an exciting new job. That was putting it lightly, and while Blaine knew he shouldnt hype the gig up it was hard not to. It had been difficult enough to keep things toned down and under-wraps from his brothers watchful eye. Since Blaine was the first one awake in the house he could let loose a little. Humming away to himself, Blaine took a shower, got dressed in a flattering ensemble and made himself a quick breakfast. As he sat at the table chewing his piece of toast Blaines phone vibrated with an incoming text. Blaine pulled out his phone and a big, giddy smile formed on his face. It was from Kurt.
KH: Hey, thought Id save us the trouble and find out if youre going to be my leading man?
BA: Were models not lead actors, but yes, how could I say no?
KH: Right? I mean wed be fools not to!
BA: So I guess Ill be seeing you real soon, huh?
KH: I guess so, and for the next twelve months.
BA: You planning to run off after the contracts done?
KH: Not right now but who knows what might happen in that much time.
Blaine and Kurt continued their flirty texts for the next 20 minutes as Blaine finished his breakfast. They wrapped things up when they realized it would be very pointless to end up missing their appointment over texting. Saying so long for now was easier when the pair knew theyd meet face-to-face in a matter of hours. Knowing if he lingered for much longer Cooper would wake up and ask what he was giggling about, made Blaine hoof it out of the apartment towards his destiny.
Destiny for Blaine resided in the impressive building that was Provision Models headquarters, though that made Blaine feel like he was part of a super hero ring rather than being a poster boy for hire. Still, little could dim his current cheery mood and Blaine had to stop himself from skipping through the front doors. Instead he put on the illusion of being a cool professional as he approached the front desk and told the young man there he had an appointment with Miss Holliday. Blaine was sent along to the same waiting area he had gone to yesterday and when he arrived, a familiar handsome face was there to greet him.
“Weve got to stop meeting like this,” Blaine flirted as he strolled into the room and sat beside Kurt.
“Why exactly?” Kurt countered with an easy smile.
Blaine laughed, Kurt joining right in, and it was like they had never parted ways since last night. Truthfully Blaine was very delighted to discover that his and Kurts playful rapport was still going strong and the novelty hadnt worn off. Good thing, too, because Blaine was looking forward to seeing how far their chemistry went and with a whole year of working together, there was lots of time to do so. “I dunno actually... I was trying to go somewhere with the comment,” Blaine replied through his muffled laughter.
“Sorry to trip you up,” Kurt offered in apology.
“Dont be, Im enjoying your dry humour quite a lot.”
“Ill keep it coming then.”
“See that you do.”
Kurt knew they were flirting a lot, far more than he had with anyone else lately, especially someone he had met only a day ago. In all his forays into dating, relationships and romance, Kurt had never encountered someone like Blaine. If Kurt stopped to think about it, he might have become slightly unnerved with that fact. Luckily for Kurt he was too focused on how good it felt to have such pleasant company, not to mention the fact that he was about to land a job he felt very passionate about. So it wasnt his shot for the spotlight on a Broadway stage, or some illustrious film role where hed find fame and fortune. If Kurt was fated to start out small then this was a fine way to enter the media and possibly get noticed in the process. But as optimistic as he was about the modeling job and what it stood for, Kurt knew deep down there was the worry about what he might get noticed for. Whenever an actor, performer or anyone in show business took up a role that was homosexual in nature, the first question people asked was, are you gay in real life? If Kurt was asked that himself he was sure there would be no hesitance, his answer would just be a casual yes. As long as people left it at that and didnt try to dig too deep into his personal life, a peaceful state could be met. It wasnt like Kurt had anything going on in his life that would be interesting to the population, but as he sat there carrying on with Blaine, that claim could change and quick.
“So this is nice, huh? You know, I hope I dont seem too familiar, but Im really looking forward to us working together for this job, Kurt,” Blaine admitted, feeling a little sheepish.
“So am I. I find the idea of someone like myself going through the same experience and for the first time a nice surprise. Having you to talk with is a great way to keep me distracted from how nervous I am,” Kurt babbled.
“I know exactly what you mean,” Blaine said.
The only thing that could stop the equally smitten young men's current spurt of playful banter came in the form of a reality check. Hollys assistant appeared, clearing her throat to get their attention and informed them that Miss Holliday was ready to see them now. Blaine, ever the dapper gentleman, gestured for Kurt to go first and he followed close behind to Hollys office, where the start of their careers as models awaited. After making their grand entrance, Kurt and Blaine looked like giddy twins with matching smiles of excitement, and Holly Holliday beckoned them forth.
“Blaine and Kurt, my new favourite power couple! Please come in, lets talk contracts!” Holly urged as she placed two pens in front of each chair at her desk.
“Power couple?” Kurt asked with a smirk.
“Right ... I dunno what gossip youve heard but Kurt and I ... we havent...” Blaine began to stutter.
“I told you its unprofessional to tease the staff, Holly,” Carl tutted as he walked into the room. “Dont mind her, shes just hazing you a bit,” he added in assurance.
“Where are my manners? Im sorry, youll figure out quick what Im like, dont worry. Things are far more relaxed around here... but still professional where it counts, of course. If everyone was all stuffy and tense here then our models would look constipated in our shoots,” Holly explained. Blaine and Kurt couldnt help themselves from snickering and Holly gave them a wink in response. “I assume you are here to give me good news?” Holly asked.
Kurt and Blaine exchanged glances. “Yes, we've both had a chance to review the contracts and we are excited to accept your offer,” Blaine responded. Kurt smiled and nodded in agreement.
“Fantastic! Well, let's get signing then!” Holly clapped enthusiastically. She watched the duo as they set to the task of signing their contracts and when that job was done she gave them one final parting comment. “For the record, if you two decide to find out how deep your chemistry runs thats not forbidden. There are no rules about fellow models dating and the contract youre under isnt a typical modeling gig anyway. As long as you keep your personal lives out of your professional ones and your worth ethic doesnt change, you can date,” Holly explained.
“Not thats any of our business,” Carl added with a light smile.
“Very well said,” Holly agreed.
Kurt glanced over at Blaine from the corner of his eye and tried not to blush or hide his delight at that news. Any building pressure relating to mixing business and pleasure was forgotten and, for now, Kurt would try not to have any high expectations.
“Thats good to know, thanks,” Blaine muttered back with a charming smile.
“I think were really lucky to be getting this opportunity, Blaine,” Kurt commented.
“And were lucky to have found the both of you,” Holly added.
Carl stepped forward and took both of the boys' contracts and placed them in a tray for Hollys assistant to take care of later and properly file away. As he watched the two young men before him he had to hand it to Holly. She really had found the perfect poster boys as she put it to fight against Proposition 8, with a campaign he was so invested in making great. Here were two confident youths who were fresh-faced and new, who hadnt been worn down by the grueling industry and who refused to deny or hide who they were, inside and out. It didnt take a genius to see how attracted and interested in each other the pair were. No wonder their chemistry was so visible in their photos together. While the current ambiance in the room was relaxed and cheerful, Carl knew he had to give one last speech to prepare Kurt and Blaine for what they were up against. “Now I hate to be the downer here but part of my responsibility is to protect the both of you. So I find the need to warn you: while running a campaign in support of marriage equality seems like the right thing to do for us... not everyone would agree. I don't want you to get too anxious, but to a vast majority of the population it will be quite controversial. Well do our best to protect the both of you during the job but youll be thrust out in the media. So I just want you two to realize not all of the feedback will be positive,” Carl warned, “and I want you to let us know if any issues arise.”
Holly nodded in agreement, switching to her more serious side to add her thoughts to the discussion. “We all know you cant shy away and turn a blind eye to the big topics, right? I know youll be up for this, guys. But if you ever feel threatened or harassed by the media or paparazzi I want you to let us know right away. Your job is to give your best and work as hard as possible and our job is to make it worthwhile and keep you safe.”
Blaine had known from the start that sometimes you needed to take a risk to make any progress in the world. He had a feeling one of the reasons he and Kurt were so well suited to the job was due to their own personal histories. Everything Carl and Holly was telling him felt oddly familiar; just change the word “media” to “classmates” and Blaine had experienced it all before. Back in his sophomore year of high school, Blaine had come out of the closet. His closest friends had been surprised but quickly accepted that was who Blaine truly was. Others, like his parents, had taken a little more time to adjust but he knew they still loved him regardless. That left the rest: the bullies or the small minded who saw Blaine as a freak of nature or worse, thought that his sexual orientation was nothing but a mixed up choice he had made. Coming out and facing such reactions hadnt been easy, but in the end it had been the right choice. Like then, now when Blaine was faced with another challenge he chose to go for it. “Im going to try my best to prove to you how choosing me for this campaign was another justified and right option,” Blaine said as he held his hand out for Carl to shake.
A warm smile spread across Kurts face. “Im already used to controversy. Ive been facing it my entire life and like the countless times before, I wont back down now. If anything, stepping out of your comfort zone can bring forth the right sort of change and opportunities, like the ones I know this job will bring. For better or worse... Im in. I want to help make a difference in this world and if it takes posing for photos with Blaine, well then so be it. Its not like anything this job entails could be seen as negative, at least in my eyes,” Kurt said with witty enthusiasm.
Never before had Blaine encountered someone quite like Kurt, who was so brave and inspiring and he instantly became even more impressed with his new work partner. “Spoken like a true out and proud man, Kurt,” he remarked.
“Why thank you, Blaine,” Kurt said in thanks.
“Dont forget who your bosses are here! Save the flirting for your own time,” Holly teased.
Kurt and Blaine both started to blush from her playful warning and Blaine nodded, “Well try to remember that,” he told her sheepishly,.
Holly stood up from her chair and waltzed over to her new employees with encouraging smiles. She had conveniently omitted the fact that around the company she was known as quite the cupid. Four other couples she had paired together for shoots had gotten together and two of those still were going strong. Her keen eye for personal chemistry was hardly ever wrong and when she had put Kurt and Blaine's head shots side by side, she knew instantly what she had discovered. Despite her carefree personality there was a reason Holly Holliday was the head of her department. She knew when and how to get the job done and deliver the results needed to remain a big wig in the world of modeling agencies.
“Now that the mandatory reality check is covered, all that leaves is the job, which starts right now for the likes of you two,” Holly began.
Kurt blinked in surprise. He hadnt expected things to start off so suddenly but then the modeling world, like many jobs, was lived in the fast lane. “Great! I seriously cant wait to start!” Kurt chimed with excitement.
“Whats up first?” Blaine urged.
“Its time to put your money makers to work -- and I mean your dashing profiles, before I get in trouble. Youre about to be whisked off to the shoot location, where well start this ad campaign off with a bang. Well, you will, since Im sadly far too busy to come along for the ride. But dont worry, Carl will be there and youll be in very capable hands when it comes to the photographer and crew,” Holly explained.
Blaine's mouth fell open as he and Kurt were pulled up from their seats and pushed towards the door. He hadnt expected to head straight for a shoot already. He had been expecting some test shots or maybe a make–up test or something, not this. But considering he was new to the modeling scene Blaine had to tell himself he was in for a lot of surprises. “Were doing a shoot already? What if Kurt and I had said no to the job?” he sputtered off, not able to hide his surprise.
“I think youll learn that sometimes in life risks are worth taking. I knew youd say yes and now... because of my bold move were going to start ahead of schedule. Now good luck and make me proud. I cant wait to see the photogenic results of today!” Holly called as Carl ushered Kurt and Blaine out the door.
“Will we ever understand her ways?” Kurt asked Carl, feeling a little nervous about referring to his boss in such a forward way.
“I havent, and Ive been working alongside her for years. The best you can hope for is to get used to her,” Carl answered.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Blaine and Kurt were whisked off to a car waiting to take them to their destination. During the organized chaos, all the young models could do was smile and nod and try to believe their lives were real. Kurt found himself very glad that Blaine was experiencing things for the first time like he was. If he had been paired off with a pro who knew every detail, it would have been that much harder to cope. Not that Kurt wouldnt be able to adapt because he knew he could. Having Blaine along for the ride just made the journey more enjoyable and less stressful. There was nothing better than venting your feelings to an understanding ear when it came to ordeals in the workplace.
“How are you faring?” Kurt whispered to Blaine beside him.
Before answering Blaine looked around his current whereabouts, sitting in the backseat of a car beside Kurt, being driven to the shoot location, trying to let it all sink in. So far in the rush he and Kurt hadnt been filled in on where the location was, or what would be expected of them either. Carl had left in another vehicle and quickly told them hed see them during the shoot. So for their first job there would be no familiar faces at the start, well aside from Kurt. “Um, okay so far ... amazingly. Did you think wed be starting so abruptly?” he whispered back.
“No, but then its not like we know what to expect,” Kurt pointed out.
“As long as its not a nude shoot I think Ill survive,” Blaine joked.
That comment made Kurt turn bright red at the very idea and his eyes widened in panic. “Do you think theyd even warn us if we had to be naked for a shoot?” Kurt blurted out in alarm.
“Relax, Kurt. Im sorry I brought it up. We can do this. Besides, this is a widespread project. I doubt doing some racy nude shoot would make people come on board. Were supporting marriage equality, not the honeymoon afterwards,” Blaine assured.
“If you say so...” Kurt remarked.
“Well, I can make assumptions but well find out soon enough. Hopefully well be looked after,” Blaine said.
“You will be, even I know that,” the driver spoke up.
As it turned out the drivers words were true. The second the car pulled up to the curb and the boys stepped out, they were met with a very friendly face. Attached to that excited smile was a jumpy young blonde man, who didnt look much older than the models. Relief washed across his face at the sight of Kurt and Blaine and he let out a large breath. “Finally! I was afraid you were never going to show and that would somehow be my fault!” the blonde exclaimed.
“I thought Miss Holliday said were ahead of schedule?” Kurt asked in puzzlement.
“Oh, well what Miss Holliday thinks and whats true can often conflict -- oh god ... dont tell her I said that!”
“Only if you dont tell her how nervous I am! We had no idea wed be doing a shoot today!” Kurt requested, his voice sounding equally flustered.
“Deal! Oh, Im Chandler, by the way, one of the junior ADs and Ive been put in charge of you two for this job. To bring you up to date on whats going to happen, get you to where youll both need to be ... stuff like that,” Chandler rambled. He saw the polite expressions Kurt and Blaine were sporting and he tried to calm himself down. “Sorry... I get really loud and fast when Im under stress... which is most of the time,” he explained.
“You probably know about us, but Im Blaine...” Blaine began and then he realized it wasnt his place to introduce Kurt. And saying us like that made it sound like they were a couple.
“Kurt,” Kurt finished for himself. He shook Chandlers hand after Blaine was done doing the same.
It seemed Chandler did end up misreading the “us” comment and it was like a light went on in his brain. “Oh, so this time cupid didnt need to do her magic! You two are already an item? Thats so sweet, and its no wonder you two look so good together on camera. We are so gonna knock this campaign out of the park! I can hear the wedding bells for the future legal same-sex marriages all over the country already!” Chandler gushed.
Blaine felt very embarrassed now, but Kurts reaction didnt give him any reason to fret, much to his relief. But he knew he had to set the record straight before the rumour would catch wind and spread like wild fire. “Actually... were not together. Kurt and I just met yesterday,” Blaine cleared up.
“Our apparent chemistry is just as surprising to us as it is to anyone else,” Kurt added.
“Oh, Im sorry! Im just such a hopeless romantic if you cant tell! Dont worry, Ill try not to make things awkward. That just proves you two are naturals, then, and thats just what this job needs,” Chandler told them.
“Thanks, Im really wanting to prove my ability,” Kurt said.
“Same goes for me!” Blaine chimed in.
Chandler bopped up and down as he clapped his hands together. “Great! Oh, youre gonna make this easy for me! Thank god, because I need a break. Okay, I should start doing my job and fill you in, as we make our way to the make-up trailers. Follow my lead and Ill bring you both up-to-date...” Chandler began as Kurt and Blaine jogged to keep up.
They both listened as Chandler babbled on about what the job for the day would entail. The first job would lead to a poster that would be circulated all over the state and country: starting off loud and proud, jumping right into the heart of things. Before long they had reached their first destination.
“Why do I feel like humming Going to the Chapel of Love all of a sudden?” Kurt joked as he looked at the beautiful old church before the trio.
“Right! Actually the shoot's taking place outside, at this totally gorgeous gazebo! The shoot was supposed to be in a few days but todays weather forecast was too perfect to pass up!” Chandler explained.
“So were doing a wedding shoot?” Blaine asked.
Chandler nodded his head vigorously. “Complete with tuxes, flowers, the whole shebang! Because you know how the saying goes, If youre gonna say something, then say it loud. Words to live by, for sure. And I do, most of the time. Lemme know if your ears need a break and Ill try to tone it down.”
“I dunno about Kurt, but I think youre fine,” Blaine said. “I could never tell someone to try to be anything but themselves.”
“Exactly. Well at least when they are a good person, perhaps just slightly more exuberant than the masses,” Kurt joked, and then felt a little regretful. “Im not crossing some professional line am I?” he asked with worry.
“Not at all! Like I said, you guys are making my job easy! So here we are, the make-up trailers. Yours is on the left, Kurt, while Blaines is on the right. Step right up and the talented artists inside will get you all dressed and ready. Ill come back when youre done to take you to the shoot, introduce you to the photographer and the whole team. So just relax and go with the flow, okay?” Chandler explained then his pager began to beep. “Oh crap, I gotta go now, see you later and good luck!” he shouted as he ran off down the road and out of sight.
Kurt and Blaine were alone once more, about to separate to start a new chapter of their lives. Blaine gave Kurt a warm smile and leaned forward, giving Kurt a quick peck on the mouth. Caught off guard, Kurt touched his lips afterwards and he knew he was blushing.
“What was that for?” he asked in surprise.
“For luck, see you at the chapel... where Im guessing were gonna get photo married!” Blaine called out as he headed to his trailer.
“Gazebo, actually!” Kurt called back. He heard Blaines laughter in response before he disappeared out of sight. Kurt stepped up the stairs to his assigned trailer and poked his head inside. The inside was familiar to Kurt from his days as an extra, make up chairs, a large mirror and not a lot of space. “Hello? Kurt Hummel, reporting for duty...” Kurt called as he stepped inside the trailer, looking for signs of life.
At the sound of Kurts voice, the other occupant of the trailer appeared, making her own grand entrance. Decked out and dressed from head-to-toe in pink hues and jewelry, a cute young woman close to Kurts own age jumped out into view. Taking one look at Kurt and letting out a girlish squeal, she rushed over to Kurt, advancing on him with no warning. She touched his face, her eyes staring at him in awe. “Youre finally here and wow! You are just as gorgeous in the flesh as you are in the photos! The second they showed me the results from your first shoot I begged Miss Holliday to let me work on you for this job,” the girl gushed.
“Uh, hi there...” Kurt said in response, unable to hide his surprise from the sudden attack.
“Oh Im sorry, I tend to get really forward when Im excited. Im Sugar Motta, your make-up artist for the day. I promise Ill try to behave but with cheek bones and a complexion like yours... its hard to remain calm. Youre a make-up artist's dream! I am so glad I chose to double as a hairdresser too!” Sugar exclaimed.
“Well Im certainly glad to be in the hands of someone so gung-ho for the job. You probably know my name, but Im Kurt.”
“I do know you by name and now in person, but we really should get to work now. Theres little time for pleasantries in the modeling world. Thats why it pays to chat while I work my magic on you and seeing you like this... makes me realize how easy that will be. Though I didnt know youd be this rosy cheeked. You looked so pale in your head shots,” Sugar explained as she guided Kurt to the makeup chair.
At the mention of his flushed face, Kurt turned an even brighter shade of red when he thought of the cause. “This glow of mine isnt natural ... my co-star's to blame,” Kurt admitted, unsure if he should've given the honest answer, but he thought it couldnt hurt.
“Ooh, so the chemistry you two had in the photos is bleeding into real life! Guess Cupid Holliday has struck again,” Sugar teased as she began to go through her collection of make-up to find the best suited choices to complement Kurts complexion.
Kurt made a face. Chandler had said the same thing before but Kurt hadnt noticed until it was brought up for the second time. “What does that mean exactly? Cupid Holliday,” he prompted.
“You dont know? Oh, well youre new to the company so I guess you wouldnt. Holly Holliday has got this knack for picking people who do well together for photo-shoots. I think at least four or five couples she put together have hooked up in real life. Two of whom are still together, one just got married even!” Sugar explained.
___________________________________________________________________________
“Youre serious arent you? That many got together... wow, the mind reels!” Blaine said in surprise.
Blaines own make-up artist, a young woman named Tina, had shared the same piece of gossip and his reaction mirrored his co-star's. Great, yet another thing to take into account when it came to Kurt and how charismatic and desirably Blaine already found him. Especially since Blaine was currently getting prettied up for a mock wedding where he and Kurt would look like happy grooms.
“Sounds like you wouldnt mind that trend continuing,” Tina coaxed.
Blaine rolled his eyes. Sure, he had just met her but already Blaine liked Tina and felt he could trust her. Up until now hed never have to take into account how professional he should be when it came to his personal life. Since breaking up with his ex three months ago, Blaine hadnt gotten back into the dating pool. His social life had only begun to restart since meeting Kurt and now it was like he was going into overdrive. “Oh, I dunno ... the possibility does seem tempting. But actually ... I could use some advice on this, if you promise to keep it to yourself. Id like to be here more than a day before the gossip flies,” Blaine admitted.
“Sure, you learn quick how to keep secrets here, big or small,” Tina assured as she applied another layer of foundation on Blaines face.
“Isnt it kind of ... rash to start something with a co-worker? I mean, I know our situation is slightly different. But were going to be working together for a whole year. What if we just become one of those couples who didnt work out?”
“Well I happen to know the three who didnt stay together are still on good terms. You sort of have to be, if you dont want it to affect your career,” Tina explained.
“Sound advice to be sure. Normally I wouldnt be so resistant, its just ... I dunno. I guess the best thing I can do is relax, not put any pressure on myself or Kurt and see what happens?” Blaine said.
“Good advice to follow. I actually know what its like to date someone you work with on a regular basis. My boyfriend is the camera man for todays shoot. Weve been together for six months and were still going strong,” Tina told Blaine.
“Then theres hope for the rest of us huh?” Blaine replied with a smirk.
______________________________________________________________________________
Kurt felt like he was having an out-of-body experience as he watched his reflection in the full length mirror in front of him. Just the sight of being carefully dressed in a sleek black wedding tux, and white dress shirt with a matching white bow-tie, made his head begin to whirl. Kurt felt like he had been sent back in time to when arranged marriages were the norm. However, now he was being prepared to meet his husband-to-be, not a blushing bride. “This is really weird...” Kurt muttered, more to himself than his assembly team.
“Are the pants too tight or something? Im sure I got the fit right,” Kurts wardrobe director, a no-nonsense type of guy named Keith, asked.
Kurt shook his head, doing his best to ignore Sugar who was looking at him dead centre as she assessed the shape of his bangs. “No, the suit fits great. Its just... I feel like I really am getting ready for my wedding day. I have to stop myself from getting all giddy and nervous ... and remind myself its not real.”
“But it could be! Not just for you and Blaine, but for all the other same sex couples out there who want their wedding day to be real as the next,” Sugar pointed out.
“Very true, and its quite humbling I guess ... at least I look smashing, thanks to you two,” Kurt replied with an appreciative smile.
“Youre going to knock them dead, Kurt. How is anyone going to be able to resist how adorable you and Blaine are?” Sugar gushed.
Keith chose to remain professionally silent during the conversation. Putting all his attention on Kurts state of dress, he circled Kurt and suddenly reached out lift up the back of Kurts jacket and inspect his back end. Kurt tried to take the move in stride as he was sure it was all due to the job at hand. Finally Keith gave an approving nod and made one final attempt to smooth the front lapel of Kurts suit. “Right, youre fully dressed and ready now. Do the company proud, Kurt,” he remarked and without another word left the trailer, as his job was done.
Feeling a little self-conscious, whether it was his wedding day or not, Kurt still wanted to do his best since the job was very important to him. If he could help make marriage equality a reality in any way, however small, hed consider it a job well done. Kurt turned around and crouched down so Sugar could make the few last finishing touches to his skillfully crafted coiffure. “How do I look?” he asked nervously.
“Like a million bucks,” Sugar declared.
Before Kurt could voice his gratitude for the flattering compliment, there was a light knock on the door. “I bet thats Chandler, ready to whisk me off to the shoot location. Thanks Sugar, you were a real treat... I hope well get to do this again,” Kurt sputtered off as he headed towards the door.
“Good luck!” Sugar called.
But when Kurt opened the door he wasnt greeted with an excited blonde. Instead he found a very dapper-looking Blaine standing in front of him. He looked very much the definition of handsome, decked out in a suit that matched Kurt's own that only heightened Blaine's already attractive traits. The large and undeniable grin he gave Kurt when their eyes met only made Kurts heart begin to race, like they were actually getting married for real. “Blaine?” he blurted out in surprise.
“Surprise! Chandler should be along in a second but I was dying to know how you turned out ... and Im very glad I got to you first. Wow ... you look amazing, Kurt!” Blaine exclaimed.
“So do you. I seriously find myself wishing we were doing this for real,” Kurt began to reply until he heard Sugar gasp from behind and his expression turned to horror. “Oh my god, I said that last part out loud didnt I?” Kurt said with woe.
“Yeah, you did, but I could have said it just as easily. I know we can both be professional about this. Let's just do our best to show all of the wonderful possibilities for marriage equality, not just the benefits for us.”
“Is he for real?” Sugar asked. Her question broke the romantic mood but that was just what the boys needed to happen.
Blaine and Kurt broke out into much welcomed laughter. Kurt beamed at Blaine, linking his arm into the crook of Blaines elbow and strolling alongside him down the stairs of the trailer and back outside. “I think I wanna find out,” Kurt answered, whether Sugar could hear him or not.
