It's Sunday. He had six days to find a place to live. He had six days to put a roof over his head or he was going to be homeless and homelessness did not fit his Armani and Hugo Boss suits and Prada shoes lifestyle. He was going to have to find a place and quick but he was going to have to tell Blaine soon. He wasn't intentionally not telling him, ok maybe he was avoiding the 'I saw my ex-boyfriend' conversation but he was just trying to give himself a couple of days to think of what he was going to do or where he was going to go. He could stay with Finn and Rachel for a little while. He was not beneath sleeping on a couch but only until he found his own place. He could ask Blaine if he could stay but were they ready to be living together? Though Blaine had basically blurted it out a while ago, neither had said 'I love you' since then.
He put all the thoughts aside for the time being as Blaine took the stage for the final performance of the evening. He looked extraordinarily dashing tonight. He had gelled back his hair which he only did when they went out on a date which was a rare enough occasion and he had on a nice light blue button up, kaki pants that barely graced his ankles, navy blue suspenders, and a bow tie that Kurt had gotten him a week ago on his way back from work one night and it just screamed Blaine. It was navy blue and pink striped and to top the outfit all off he had on a pair of brown and navy saddle shoes with no socks (typical). Kurt melted at the sight of his boyfriend basking in the spotlights of the small stage.
Kurt had been so busy frantically looking at apartments and other options for housing that he hadn't really been paying attention to any of the performances for the night but he would sure take time out of his search to listen to his boyfriend who was taking the stage in his usual confident manner. "Hello everyone. First off I would like to thank you for all coming out tonight, I know it is a bit chilly tonight so thank you for braving the chilly fall air. Second, I would like to remind you to pick up Wes' CD starting next Sunday. We will have copies at the next Sing Sunday and we will also be selling them at the register starting next Monday so be looking for that." Blaine looked nervous from where Kurt could see him. He was wringing his hands together and his usual smile disappeared and was replaced with the look of fear, which Kurt knew well. He really only got that look on Mystery Muffin Monday when Kurt knew he had less than adequate time to prepare a really good muffin and instead he just threw some things into a bowl and called it good.
"As you all know I have been in a relationship for a couple of months now. I know that it wasn't that long of a wait for him as it was for me. I will never forget the day that he walked into this shop on that rainy Monday morning on his way to work. From that day on all I did was fantasize about him, his perfect smile, the way his hair just looked so good all the time, which I still envy by the way." Blaine directed his gaze only on Kurt whose heart rate was quickening rapidly even as the entire shop laughed along to the story. "And the more I got to know him the more things I found to love about him, the way his eyes crinkled in the corners when he let out a laugh which for the record is the most musical thing I have ever heard, or the way that he plays with his hair on the back of his head when he's nervous like he's doing now," Kurt was jolted out of his revere. He didn't even realize that he was doing it. "Or the way that he blushed when I would compliment him on something. The point is, the more I got to know him the more I began to love the Little Things about him." Blaine's gaze never faltered from Kurt's like the rest of the world had some how faded away into nothingness. Blaine took a deep breath that seemed to shutter in his lungs on intake. "Eventually after two years of waiting, he gave me the chance to love him."
"Yeah, finally!" Wes yelled out which made everyone laugh.
"Anyways," Blaine drew out to bring everyone back to him, not that he cared if anyone was watching him, all he cared about was an audience of one, "No song could ever tell you how much you mean to me but this one comes pretty close, so Kurt, this song is for you."
Your hand fits in mine
Like its made just for me
But bare this in mind
It was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots
With the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me
Kurt lifted his hands to his face to cover the light sprinkling of freckles that he had on his face. He had never liked them before but he knew that Blaine had always adored them.
I know you've never loved
The crinkles by your eyes
When you smile
You've never loved
Your stomach or your thighs
The dimples in your back
At the bottom of your spine
But I love them endlessly
Blaine looked at Kurt as the world was melting away around the two of them. This always seemed to happen whenever Blaine sang.
I wont let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if I do
It's you
Oh it's you
They add up to
Blaine took a shuttering breath.
I'm in love with you
Kurt could feel the tears in his eyes threatening to fall. He knew that Blaine loved him, without a doubt but there was something different this time, something else in his eyes that Kurt couldn't put a name to. It was much deeper than the last time that he had said it.
And all these little things
You can't go to bed
Without a cup of tea
And maybe that's the reason
That you talk in your sleep
Kurt averted his eyes as Blaine tried not to laugh at the truth behind the music.
And all those conversations
Are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me
I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape
You never want to know how much you weigh
You still have to squeeze into your jeans
But you're perfect to me
I wont let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
but if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things
You'll never love yourself
Half as much as I love you
You'll never treat yourself right darling
But I want you to
If I let you know
I'm here for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you
Oh...
Blaine left the stage, leaving the microphone behind (not that he needed it because it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop) until it was just him and his guitar. Blaine didn't care whether anyone else heard the rest of the song or not because the performance wasn't for anyone but Kurt, it was a declaration. He started to make his way over to that table right in the middle.
I've just let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
'Cause it's you
Oh it's you
It's you
They add up to
Blaine stopped right in front of Kurt before continuing on.
And I'm in love with you
And all these little things
I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
Blaine stopped strumming flinging his guitar over his shoulder and grabbed Kurt's hands and encouraged him to stand pulling him closer to his body so they were almost touching. No music played, it was just Blaine and his voice.
But if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
They were within kissing distance now, Kurt barely keeping himself together. Blaine could see the tears in his eyes that brought on his own.
I'm in love with you
And all your little things
The music ended and as the crowd around them erupted but neither man heard the commotion as Blaine pulled Kurt into a searing kiss filled with passion and love. He was the first to pull away. "I love you Kurt. I love you so much. I love everything about you and I just couldn't keep it inside any longer. I know that you aren't ready to say it and that's fine. I don't need you to say it I just needed you to kn..."
It was Kurt's turn to pull Blaine in for a kiss, sloppy and messy yet somehow absolutely perfect in every way. He pulled away leaning their foreheads together. "I love you, Blaine."
"Kurt you don't need to say it to make me feel better."
"Blaine Anderson, I have been trying to find a way to tell you those exact words for almost a week now? You have no idea how close I had come several times." People around them where exiting but neither registered the soft nudges of bodies moving past them as they stood stationary. "I have been searching for the right moment to tell you all week but that song was incredible and if I had any doubts in my mind, you just wiped them completely away. I have never been so in love with anyone. I love you Blaine."
Blaine's chin quivered as he wept silent tears trying to keep it together but failing miserably. "I love you too." He sealed their lips into a kiss. A kiss that seemed to last forever but at the same time it didn't seem long enough.
Neither knew how long they had been standing there until Wes nudged Blaine. "Lord you two. I thought that one of you was going to have your face sucked in like a vacuum at the rate you two were going at it."
Blaine looked at his friend but never separating from Kurt as they continued to stay attached from head to toe, both with their arms wrapped around the other's waist. "It hasn't been that long." Had it?
"Listen, I had time to clear all the dishes to the counter and wipe all the tables. All you two love birds are required to do before you both retreat up to the sex palace for some raunchy ass sex, and I mean that literally, is load the dishwasher and the sweep the floors." Wes turned to his friend. "Think you can handle that Casanova?" Both Blaine and Kurt stood their speechless. Neither knew how to respond so they just nodded their heads. "Good. See you in the morning boss." Wes started to walk toward the door. "If you need some extra time in the morning for a hot shower scene that's fine. I'm not expecting you down until noon tomorrow. Well see ya," and he left without another word.
Both men looked at each other wide-eyed and mouths open. "Oh."
"My."
"God."
"How does he get away with saying the things he does? If I ever said things like that, I would sound like a complete perv but he comes in and says things like that and they just flow off his tongue like it's the most natural thing in the world," Kurt asked.
Blaine shrugged. "Your guess is as good as mine. He has always been like that and through the snotty retorts, there is a heart that really cares so I keep him around but then he says stuff like that and I am completely mortified to even call him a friend." They both laugh before locking eyes again. "Hey."
"Hey."
"Guess what?"
"What?" Kurt smirked he knew what was coming.
"I love you."
"I love you too." They met in the middle each going in for another kiss which quickly turned into two, which turned into five and before they knew it Blaine was backing Kurt up to a wall rubbing up Kurt's back, inadvertently untucking the shirt from his pants and Kurt was running his hands roughly through Blaine's hair as his curls sprang free from the gel. They both had started rubbing, grabbing, and feeling anything they could get their hands on. Kurt could feel Blaine growing hard through his pants as their cocks met through clothing. Kurt let out an unintentional moan of pleasure. Blaine separated from Kurt, creating distance, which made Kurt whimper. "We need to cool down if we want to keep this situation as least awkward as possible."
"Who said that we need to keep it un-awkward. I kind of liked where this was going," Kurt said as he was pulling Blaine in again this time turning Blaine around and pinning him up to the wall.
They kissed, all tongue, and teeth, and hunger neither stopping for even the slightest bit of rest as Kurt rutted himself up against Blaine making him moan and fall apart under his hand. Blaine pulled away a couple minutes later as Kurt made his way to that spot on Blaine's neck. "I thought you said you weren't ready for sex."
Kurt pulled away and Blaine could feel a purple bruise forming on his neck. "Yeah, I'd been meaning to talk to you about that," Kurt said with a wicked grin. "That raunchy ass sex in the sex palace sounds like it could be fun."
That was all the confirmation that Blaine needed as he let out a growl from deep in his throat and flipped Kurt, slamming him into the wall again, and attacking his lips. The next thing Kurt knew he was being picked up as his legs were wrapped around his boyfriend's tiny waist and was being carried up the stairs to the loft. The minute they hit the door to Blaine's loft, they slammed through the door, practically toppling over each other as Blaine set Kurt down on the ground.
Kurt barely had enough time to register what was happening as he was once again slammed against the back of the front door. "God I wanna fuck you so bad," Blaine growled as he started to rip away at Kurt's blue Armani shirt. As soon as he got the shirt open he sent a trail of hot, wet kisses starting at Kurt's earlobe and making his way painfully slow down Kurt's stomach, worshipping every inch of his boyfriend. Blaine eventually made his way to the sleek line of Kurt's hip and started to simultaneously undo the button of Kurt's pants. Kurt threw his head back on the door with a loud thump, as he knew exactly where this was heading. Blaine finally found his way to the gold pot at the end of the rainbow, as he pulled Kurt's pants down he saw the wet spot on Kurt's tight black boxer briefs and the large outline of his cock. He licked him through the fabric and up his length. "Mmmnnngg. Please Blaine."
He looked up at Kurt through his long lashes. "Please what."
Kurt just looked at him wordlessly with almost a pained expression. Blaine just gave a wicked laugh and pulled on the hem of Kurt's briefs setting his cock free. He just sat and stared for a minute worshiping at the sight of his boyfriend's penis. He licked up the length as Kurt shivered above him. Once his tongue had found the head he took all of Kurt in with one motion. He methodically bobbed up and down on Kurt making sure to swirl his tongue hitting that spot on the underside of his shaft that made Kurt wither from above almost bringing him to his knees.
Oh god! Blaine needed some relief of his own. Watching Kurt eyes close with his head thrown back was making his pants even tighter. He started palming himself through his pants. It wasn't long until Kurt's breathing sped up and he was pulling Blaine off of him by his loose curls. "Mmm, Blaine I want you inside me. We need a horizontal surface for you to fuck me into. Now."
Blaine's cock twitched and without a conscious decision was immediately dragging Kurt up the stairs to his bedroom. Once they got there Blaine shoved Kurt onto the bed. "You have no idea how long I have been wanting to do this again with you," Blaine panted in Kurt's ear as the other man was undoing his pants helping his erection spring free. They were both pulling at whatever clothing that were left on each other until they were laying skin against skin. In one quick, fluid movement Blaine had collected a condom and lube from his dresser drawer. It wasn't long before Blaine was squirting a healthy dose of the lube onto his fingers and was going for Kurt's entrance. Blaine was circling at the tight bundles of muscles until he felt a finger slip in and Kurt shuttered with anticipation and pleasure. Blaine worked his finger in and out until he was slipping another in. As he stretched Kurt open they both were growing impatient, both craving that release.
"Just do it, Blaine. No more. I can't wait anymore," Kurt withered under the intense concentration of Blaine not wanting to hurt the man that he loved.
"I don't want it to hurt, Kurt."
"It won't hurt. It could never hurt with you." Kurt pulled Blaine down with a slow and sweet kiss. "I love you. I have never trusted anyone as much as I trust you."
Blaine just half smirked and he grabbed the condom off the bedside table and was rolling it on with practiced ease. He slicked himself up and as he lined up to Kurt's entrance, all he could do was look down at the man. As he slowly entered he whispered 'I love you' like it was only meant for Kurt to hear even if they were the only two people in the room. Kurt just smiled up at him without so much as a flinch.
Blaine started up a slow rhythm but as their need grew quickly for that release, so did his speed. "Oh my god Kurt, this is going to be embarrassingly quick." Blaine took Kurt by the ankle and slung his leg over his shoulder burying himself deeper and deeper with each thrust.
Kurt tried to laugh but it came out more as a groan of pleasure. "Me too," is all he could voice. He reached in between them stroking himself feeling how close he was. "You have no idea how hot you are right now."
That was all that it took for Blaine to come, filling the condom. "Uh Kurt, I love you." Kurt wasn't far behind hearing those words as he felt Blaine's hips sputter as he came in between them.
Blaine collapsed putting his full weight on Kurt trying to catch his breath enough. Once he felt that he had the strength again, he rolled off of Kurt pulling out which made them both wince on their overly sensitive softening cocks.
"Oh lord Kurt. You are trying to kill me, aren't you?" Blaine panted attempting to catch his breath as he pulled off the condom, tying it off and throwing it toward the garbage and hoping that it made it in but not really caring that much if it didn't.
"That wasn't the intention as I wouldn't mind doing this more often." Blaine laughed getting up to find a towel in the bathroom to wipe up with. Once he was clean he threw it to Kurt who did the same.
Blaine crawled back into bed letting Kurt snuggle in next him. They lay there in a tangle of limbs silently, content to just be. Blaine stroked Kurt's arm as Kurt listened to the claming thump of Blaine's rhythmic heartbeat.
After some time Blaine weaseled his way out of the bed. "Wait, where are you going?" Kurt whined.
He was pulling on his underwear and a dirty 'Interval' t-shirt. "Well we never finished cleaning down stairs. I'll finish and you stay here. Rest up. When I get back this is happening again." He chuckled low in his belly.
"Well, wait, I'll come with you." Kurt was already crawling out of bed and searching the floor for anything to put on. He found a teal 'Interval' t-shirt and threw it on. He was grabbing clean briefs from his drawer when Blaine grabbed his hand.
"You don't need to. I'll go down and finish, you stay up here and rest. I want to come back to your beautiful body splayed out on my bed...just for me."
Kurt stood up a little pulling up his purple Andrew Christian's. Once he was in a decent amount of clothing he walked up to the shorter man and pulled him in so their bodies were fusing into one. They swayed to no music as they kissed tenderly. "The faster we get it done, the quicker we can come back up." Blaine smiled wickedly and pulled Kurt in for a quick kiss.
"Let's go."
They both worked around each other in silence exchanging light touches and flirty looks across the café. Once they were nearing an end Kurt broke the silence. "Hey babe, can I ask you a question?"
Blaine looked at him in concern as Kurt worried his lip between his teeth. "Sure hon. What's up? Everything ok?"
Kurt nodded, waving off his boyfriend's concern. "Yeah, um I was just wondering...how affordable is it to live in West Village? Can I find a decent one bedroom within a reasonable price range?"
Blaine looked at him with confusion. "Sure. You make way more than I make and somehow I am making do." Blaine put the broom down that he was using to sweep and made his way to the table that Kurt was wiping down. "What is the matter with your apartment?"
Kurt let out a sigh as Blaine settled his hands on either side of his face. "Promise you won't get mad?"
Blaine furrowed his brows. "Promise." It came out more as a question than a statement.
"I saw Erik the other day." Kurt felt Blaine's grip on his tighten and he also noticed his jaw tighten at the name. "Nothing happened so you can relax. We only talked about the apartment." Blaine let out a long tense sigh. "He said that he was going to stop paying for his half. I completely forgot to find an apartment. I got so caught up in the newness of this," as he gestured between them, "that I never even put a single thought into where I would live after that and as nice as Tribeca is, I don't have that kind of money and I have really grown to love the West Village plus I would be much closer to work...and you."
"I like the idea of you being closer to me." Blaine pulled Kurt into a kiss. "But that would also mean that you would go home most nights if your apartment is closer and I don't like that thought." Blaine went silent for a long few seconds as they just stood staring at each other. "What if you moved in here?"
Kurt's eyes got huge as he looked to Blaine. "Are you crazy?"
Blaine looked confused again. "No. I feel completely sane," He joked to which he received a swift punch to the shoulder. "Ouch. Ok, ok but I was being completely serious. You spend most of the week here anyways, some of your stuff is already here, I have the space and no one to share it with, and best of all, I would get to come home to you every night." Blaine pulled Kurt into a searing kiss that seemed to set them both on fire. Blaine slid his tongue in with ease.
Kurt separated them because if he kept this up he wouldn't be thinking with his brain. "As great as that sounds babe, I don't want to move too fast and moving in is a big step and isn't something to be taken lightly."
Blaine huffed out air like a teenage being scolded by his parents. "Fine, how about you stay here until you can find a place. I have two guestrooms that have sat unused for the past couple of years except the three times that Cooper came to town and even then I don't think that he ever slept in them. We would always come waltzing through the door at 4am with a wide grin. He though he was so sly. Anyways, we can go house hunting together. It might be fun?" Blaine was biting his bottom lip with a look of hope in his eyes. Kurt grumbled throwing his head side to side avoiding an answer. "Ok, at least tell me that you will think about it."
"Fine. I will think about it but this is not me saying yes, I hope you know that."
Blaine was as excited as a three year old in line at Disney World. "That is all the confirmation that I need." He pulled Kurt in for another mind-blowing kiss. "Now that we have that out of the way," His hands migrated to the hem of Kurt's underwear. "Your ass looks phenomenal in those Andrew Christian's but I think it is time to say good bye to Andrew because this isn't a threesome and I have been imagining fucking you against the counter ever since we got down here."
Kurt's eyes became lust blown before he launched himself toward Blaine.
Blaine woke up and looked at the clock. 10:07am. Thank god he had made Kurt text Isabelle telling her he had to run errands in the morning and he would be late. He rolled over and nudged his boyfriend awake. "Hey babe, it's after 10, I don't want you to be too late."
Kurt grumbled and rolled over until he was buried in Blaine's bare chest. "Nooo."
Blaine laughed sleepily. "I know but we can take a shower and then get you off to work and theeeennn..." Blaine kissed Kurt's forehead, "we can do it all again tonight, what do you think?"
"MMmm, I like that idea." He rolled over cracking an eye open. "Ok, I'm up."
Blaine pulled him out of bed and they made their way to the shower with no intention of it being short by any means.
Once they had both cum in the shower a couple times each they got out, prune-y and satisfied.
As Kurt was buttoning up the red and white striped shirt that he had and finishing off with a gray scarf as he heard a noise. "Meow."
"Blaine, what the hell was that?"
Blaine turned as he was buttoning up his kaki pants up. He looked to the window. "Oh, Filchy." Blaine ran to the window and opened it to which the cat purred and rubbed against Blaine's pants.
"You know that filth bucket?" Kurt grimaced. "And you named it after a Harry Potter character? Why am I not surprised?"
Blaine laughed. "Yeah, he's a stray that hangs around. I feed him. He's unofficially my cat, but you haven't been around have you boy." He rubbed the cat's ears as he put down some fresh water and food, which the cat immediately started to inhale.
Kurt watched his boyfriend interacting with the cat. It did seem to like him and there was something about the cat that was charming. Once the cat was done eating. Kurt sighed and made his way to the cat. He grabbed him from Blaine's grasp and took him in the apartment. The cat looked lost as to what was going on. "He lives here now." Blaine looked at his boyfriend admiring the cat as he set him down to explore his new home.
"I thought he was a filth bucket?" Blaine teased.
"Yeah well I'm good at taking strays in and cleaning them up. I mean I took you in and now look at you. You look hot!" Kurt teased.
"Haha very funny." Blaine pulled him in for a chaste kiss. "You really like the cat?"
"Yeah, he's endearing in his own way." They both made their way to the front door. "I'll try to get off work early and I'll pick up everything that he needs. I can make an appointment to have him groomed tomorrow and some time this week we will take him to the vet."
Blaine looked at Kurt with so much tenderness. "I love you."
"I love you too." They kissed quickly before Blaine went behind the counter.
"Do you want the usual? Are you hungry?"
"Yeah, a little." Blaine just nodded and turned to make the coffee.
Wes chose this moment to make an appearance. "So, it's nearly 11. Aren't you going to be late for work Kurt?" He asked with mocking concern.
"Umm...I wasn't feeling well this morning so I called Isabelle and told her I would be late. Blaine was kind enough to take care of me."
"I'm sure he did. He's pretty good at 'taking care of people' especially one's that he is madly in love with."
"Umm...yeah." Kurt was blushing feeling slightly uncomfortable.
"And how do you feel now?"
"Better." Kurt's voice cracked under the scrutiny.
"Mmhmm." Wes said raising one eyebrow.
Blaine finally came over to the rescue, coffee in hand. "Here you go babe. I think the muffin is apple pumpkin."
"Thanks." Kurt gave him the money, which Blaine was going to dispute before he got that death stare Kurt was famous for and quickly changed his mind. "I'll see you later." He leaned and they connected lips over the counter.
"Ok, and remember to think about it."
Kurt let out a big sigh. "I will."
"How long do you have before you need to be out?"
"Five days."
"Think quick. That's no time at all."
Kurt winked at his boyfriend and then he was gone.
Blaine turned around to find a judging Wes staring a little too hard at Blaine while leaning on the counter. "Why do you have to make him so uncomfortable?"
"Ahh, I'm not that bad." Blaine just gave him a look. "Fine, I will rein it in a bit around him."
"Thank you."
"So, you have fun last night?"
Blaine just laughed. "Shut up."
"Look at you, Blainers, gettin' it in."
"Yeah well I wouldn't lean to hard on that counter if I were you."
Wes looked down with confusion until something clicked and he looked at back up at Blaine chin to the floor and quickly removing himself from the counter like it was on fire. His look immediately turned dark. "Blaine you kinky son of a bitch."
