Kurt woke up early on Monday. Today was the first day of boot camp and he was ready for it!

He sat up on his bed and looked over to Blaine's bed, who was obviously still sleeping if the light snoring filling the room was any indication.

As quiet as possible, Kurt stepped out of his bed and started packing the stuff he needed for his quick shower.

The room filled with a warm steam as he took a step inside.

His senses immediately filled with the scent of the shampoo he used.

As he started massaging it in his hair, his mind started drifting off to the day's activities.

The day would start at noon where a lunch was planned with all the contestants that had survived the audition round.

It made Kurt a little nervous but also excited, seeing who his competition was.

Then there would be a small boot camp where they would learn some exercises to sing and dance at the same time, where Kurt was very excited about.

And other than that, they had a relaxed day where they could choose what they would do in the evening.

Kurt stepped out of the shower and put on a pair of his skinny black jeans with a white button up. He topped it off with a black vest and a red skinny tie which matched his shoes from Louboutin, which had been really expensive.

He did his hair carefully and checked everything twice before he stepped back in the room.

On the bed sat a very sleepy looking Blaine, who was rubbing his eyes and looked very adorable.

“Good morning,” Kurt said with a soft smile on his face. “Had a good night of sleep?”

Blaine nodded his head but the look in his eyes told Kurt that Blaine barely understood what he had said. “Not a morning person,” said Blaine sheepishly. “I need a strong cup of coffee and a warm shower.”

Kurt chuckled and weaved his arm towards the bathroom, “It's free. I'll wait for you and we can both get that cup of coffee.”

Blaine grinned thankfully towards Kurt before he took the clothes on the chair next to him towards the bathroom.

Kurt watched him walk away and couldn't help but think about how adorable he looked in that moment.

But no, he wouldn't fall for his roommate.

He couldn't.

They arrived in time at the announced place for lunch.  Most contestants seemed to already have arrived.

It was a cozy small restaurant with a nice interior with hints of brown and white filling the space.

When Blaine stepped inside, he was immediately wrapped into 2 hugs.

Kurt remembered how Blaine had told him that he had auditioned with 2 other guys, so he expected this  were going to be the other members.

Blaine grinned sheepishly towards Kurt over the shoulders of his friends.

“Guys let go of me. You just saw me yesterday,” he said with a grin as he patted them on the back.

One of them pouted as he pulled away. “But Blainey, we missed you,” he said in a silly voice which made Blaine chuckle.

“I'm not even sure I want to introduce you to my roomie,” Blaine said between his chuckles.

The guy immediately turned around and grinned towards Kurt. “I'm Jeff,” he said as he hopped on his feet.

Kurt couldn't help but chuckle. “My name is Kurt, nice to meet you.”

“I know who you are,” said Jeff as he rolled his eyes. “Your audition was amazing!”

Kurt blushed a little. It never felt normal when someone told him that, even when it was aired a while ago. “Thank you. I wish I could say the same about you guys, but I guess that will have to wait for Friday,” he said with a wink.

Jeff laughed and started talking with Blaine as the other guy made his way towards Kurt. “I'm Nick,” he said as he held out his hand for Kurt to shake.

Kurt took it firmly and shook his hand, “Kurt but I guess you already heard that.”

The guy chuckled, “Yeah I did. And I have to say, I also loved your audition.”

“Thank you,” Kurt said as the blush took over once more.

“So how is it like rooming with Blaine? We know how a handful he can be,” Nick said with a smirk as Blaine's head shot up.

Blaine pouted at Nick, “You did not just do that! I'm a great roomie, right Kurt,” he asked while still pouting.

Kurt couldn't help but play along a bit and acted like he was thinking about it, which made Blaine pout even harder and wrap his arms around him, “Fine,” he said as he sulked further.

Kurt chuckled and shoved playfully against his shoulder, “You are a great roomie.”

Blaine smiled in triumph towards Nick before looking back to Kurt.

“You are sitting next to me,” he said as he took Kurt's hand and started leading him towards the end of the table.

Kurt took a seat on the corner as Blaine took a seat next to him. Jeff and Nick had followed behind them and sat in front of them.

Slowly, the other contestants who had been in the room, seemed to catch on and take a seat as well.

Kurt noticed how some of them stared at him, which made him a little uncomfortable. It made him feel like he wouldn't make much friends in here.

Some guy Kurt had never seen, walked inside the room, followed by some crew. The guy was tall and had black short hair. His eyes moved around the room as he tried to take everything in.

“Hi guys, my name is Kyle and I'll be your information source for this week,” he said with a polite smile. “You may also notice but I brought some crew so we could catch some glances about your first meeting. Now enjoy your meal!” he said and then he was gone as fast as he had entered the room.

While some of them looked confused around, others just shrugged and took the menu.

Some conversation broke in small groups around the table and a pleasant buzz filled the room.

Kurt talked mostly through his meal with Blaine, Jeff and Nick. But somewhere between their meal and their dessert, the girls next to Blaine and Nick started talking along.

Kurt recognized them from the first week of auditions. One of them was called Mercedes; She was a dark skinned girl with long beautiful hair that felt in weaves down her shoulders. And if Kurt remembered correctly, she had one hell of a voice.

The other girl was called May. She was a tall girl with blond hair that fell straight over her shoulders. She wore a pair of black glasses and was the typical kind of girl that you would see on top of the high school chain. She had a good voice but Kurt doubted it would be enough for her to reach the finals.

When everyone had finished their desserts, Kyle came back to announce their would be cars waiting to transport them to the first boot camp. They would need to pair up with 4 to fit the car.

Kurt tagged along with Blaine, Jeff and Nick.

The nerves slowly started to creep up when they started the drive.

Blaine noticed and wrapped a hand around his shoulder. He squeezed it softly as a form of support.

“There's no need to be nervous. It's going to be fun, You'll see,” he grinned.

Kurt wanted to argue but when he looked him in the eyes, he could only nod and look back through the window.

He hoped it would be ok.

Kurt let himself fall down on the bed. Today had been tiring even though it was only the beginning.

It was so weird, being here and doing all these stuff he had always dreamed about.

He let out a long sigh as he rethought about the dance moves he had learned from their coach John and the singing exercises he had learned from their other coach Sarah.

He heard a chuckle from the other side of the room.

“You can't be tired yet, are you, Kurt,” he heard Blaine pout.

Kurt just shook his head and tried to burry himself under his pillows.

“Oh no”, he heard Blaine laugh as he walked towards Kurt, “You promised me you would tag along to the karaoke bar almost everyone is going to. We are going to socialize.”

Blaine took the pillow covering Kurt's eyes away from him with a smirk on his face, “Now go fresh up a little and we are out.”

Kurt pouted, trying to weight his options between staying in his bed and tagging along with Blaine, but when he noticed the look in Blaine's eyes, he knew there would be no winning.

With a sigh he stood up and walked towards the bathroom, “are glad I like you,” he said while he pointed towards Blaine before he shut the door behind him.

He let himself fall against the door and smacked himself on the head, thinking he really shouldn't have said that.

When they told Kurt they would be going to a karaoke bar, Kurt thought it would be a small cozy place but oh had he miss thought that.

The place was huge with many people sipping on their drinks as they waited for the next performance.

Blaine grinned next to him as he took in the small stage and the many people sitting around the room, “This looks amazing.”

Kurt nodded along. While it was a little weird for him, he knew it would be nice to perform for all these people.

Blaine and Kurt decided to first go and add themselves on the list of the karaoke bar before they took a seat at the long boot that was reserved for all of them.

Blaine pointed towards the guy sitting on the other side as he tried to hide his chuckles.

Right in front of them sat the guy with the pink pants, sipping from his beer as he looked along the crowd.

Kurt rolled his eyes to Blaine but had to swallow his own chuckles, holding his fingers crossed that the guy wouldn't perform tonight.

Blaine and Kurt sat quietly next to each other as they listened to the performances. Every once in a while they would share an opinion about one of them or point something out and Kurt had to admit it was quiet nice.

Meanwhile, Jeff and Nick were discussing their song choice with Mercedes and May and by the looks of it, they were going to sing at least one song together too.

Kurt was about to throw in his own suggestion when his and Blaine's name was called off.

Blaine grinned and shoved Kurt out of the booth. Together they walked towards the small stage.

Kurt noticed how some people started pointing and whispering. It was a little weird but on the other side, it also felt quite amazing.

Blaine seemed to enjoy it too, if the twinkle in his eyes was any indication.

“So I'm finally going to hear you sing,” grinned Kurt.

Blaine shrugged, “if we are going to compete together, I think it will only be fair for you to know who you will lose from,” he said with a toothy smile.

Kurt chuckled, “Oh bring it on Blaine.”

Just that moment, the music started filling the room.

They had taken their time to think about a song both of them liked and something that was playfully at the same time. They ended up with animal from neon trees.

Blaine was the first one to sing a part of the song. He walked around the stage like he owned as he jumped around a little from one side to another as the words fell over his lips.

Here we go again,
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me,Im afraid youre never satisfied

He waved towards Kurt to follow him along the stage. Kurt had been standing at one side as he looked a little mesmerized at Blaine. He had one of the most beautiful voices Kurt had ever heard. Kurt shook his head as he watched Blaine. Just in time, he got back to his senses. He cleared his throat and started singing along.

Here we go again,
Were sick like animals,we play pretend
Youre just a cannibal, and im afraid I wont get out alive

They looked at each other as they danced around the stage and started to sing together.

No, I wont sleep tonight

Oh-oh
I want some more,
Oh-oh
what are you waitin for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh-oh 
I want some more,
Oh-oh
what are you waitin for?
what are you waiting for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight

Blaine winked at Kurt as he took the next part.

Here we are again,
I feal the chemicals kickinin
Its gettin havier, and I wanna run and hide
I wanna run and hide

Kurt couldn't help but let a chuckle as Blaine tried to flirt with the closest people sitting by the stage, who clearly enjoyed it. Blaine turned around in that moment and smiled at Kurt, which was his cue.

I do it every time, youre killin me now

And I wont be denied by you,
the animal inside of you!

Blaine almost looked mesmerized from where he was watching Kurt sing. He smiled sweetly towards him as he started singing along once more.

Oh-oh,
I want some more,
Oh-oh,
what are you waitin for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh-oh,
I want some more,
Oh-oh,
hat are you waitin for?
What are you waiting for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight

Hush hush,
the world is quiet
Hush hush,
we both cant fight it
Its us that made this mess
Why cant you understand?

Woah I dont sleep tonight

Here we go again

Oh-oh,
I want some more,
Oh-oh,
what are you waitin for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh-oh,
I want some more,
Oh-oh,
What are you waitin for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waitin?

(here we go again)
Here we go again
Here we go again

Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Oh-oh,
I want some more,
Oh-oh,
hat are you waitin for?
What are you waiting for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight

The crowd started applauding immediately when the last words left their lips. Blaine wrapped Kurt in a hug before they bowed together in front of the crowd.

Kurt wasn't sure, but he thought he saw some phones in the air. He was almost sure this would be on YouTube by the next day.

Blaine grinned at him as he squeezed his hand once and started walking towards the edge of the stage.

Once he had jumped off the stage, he turned to Kurt with a huge smile on his face, “that was amazing,” he said in excitement as he threw his hands in the air.

Kurt couldn't help but laugh breathlessly along, “yeah that definitely was amazing. And I have to admit, you have an amazing voice!”

Kurt wasn't sure but he thought he noticed a small blush on Blaine's face, “why thank you,” Blaine smiled.

They walked together towards their booth. Most of the other competitors were standing up and giving them a standing ovation.

Blaine seemed to eat it up and did a bow in front of all of them, which made Jeff and Nick roll their eyes.

Kurt just shoved him playfully and took a seat in the booth, this time next to Jeff, who was complementing him about the performance and clearly thinking about doing a duet later with him too.

Meanwhile, a guy with a meercat face, no Kurt wasn't kidding, was walking towards them with a huge smile on his face, or should he say smirk.

The guy leaned over the boot next to Blaine and almost purred, “so you are one hell of a sex on a stick.”

Blaine, who was drinking at the time, almost spit it all out, “excuse me,” he said while still trying to find his voice back.

“Oh don't act like you don't like me too. We could be the super couple of this whole bunch and make it to final. I'm sure the crowd would it up,” Sebastian said almost in a triumph voice.

Blaine shook his head as he listened to the words falling over his lips, “Oh no, I'm not that type of guy and I don't want to be associated with any of that so please, would it be ok for you to leave now.”

The guy actually purred at that with a smirk on his face, “oh I can make you that type. See you later tiger,” he said with a wave as he walked back towards a group a little further.

Blaine actually looked stunned as he sat there with his mouth wide open and Kurt had to admit, he probably looked quite the same at the moment.

“You ok,” he asked as he put his hand on Blaine's shoulder.

Blaine swallowed before he nodded his head, “Yeah but I think I'm ready to go back to the hotel. I think I've done enough socializing. You want to come along?”

Kurt smiled to him, “Yeah, that's cool. Let's go.”

They said goodbye to Jeff, Nick, Mercedes and May who seemed to understand as they had watched everything and together they took the cab back to the hotel.

Kurt let himself fall down on the bed just like he had done a few hours ago. “Is it bad that I'm actually happy to finally get some time alone with this awfully good bed,” he asked more to himself than to Blaine.

Blaine actually chuckled as he shoved his shoes from his feet, “No, I have to admit I like the idea too,” he grinned as he walked towards the bed.

He let himself fall down with a sigh as he put on the television and started going through the channels.

Kurt watched the channels go by until Blaine found a movie he seemed to like, “you ok with watching this,” Blaine asked as he looked towards him.

Kurt shrugged, “I probably won't make it through half the movie anyway.”

Blaine chuckled at that, “yeah me too but I guess we'll have to make most of it.”

So they ended up laying both on their own bed as they watched a movie together until their eyes felt too tired to even stay open anymore as the movie kept on playing in the background.

Which they didn't know, was that it would become a ritual for the next few days, as their newfound friendship grew thicker and thicker and they grew closer and closer.
