Hi everyone, I promised more chapters this week and I feel extremly guilty for not keeping my promise :$ . My only reason was schoolwork to be honnest. Ive been working the whole week to catch up with all the work thats waiting for me (even though its break for me) and still Ive only managed to do half of it.
But tonight, I made some time to finish the half written chapter that was waiting for me on my laptop. So I hope you liked it! Next up will be Kurt going back to school (so it will be in Kurts POV).
And last but not least. I want to wish you all a happy halloween (for everyone who reads this tonight! and for all the others a happy late halloween!). I dont really celebrate it myself but I hope you all had fun with whatever crazy parties you went to :)
Lots of love xoxo
Rumors were going around everywhere in the hallway of McKinley. It all started the last time the jocks had locker shoved Kurt. People had noticed how a strange mysterious man had walked into the building and helped him on his feet again. And after that, he just disappeared with Kurt.
No one had heard from him. Not the jocks, not the other students, not the teachers and not the glee club. The only thing Mr. Figgins knew was that Kurt Hummel's dad had called, telling him that Kurt wouldn't be coming to school for the next week and after that, they would need a talk about the school situation. Burt had left no place for discussion and had ended the call.
But today, today was even worse. It started with a few fans of Blaine Anderson. They had seen Kurt during the red carpet and where talking about it in the hallways while people passed by and word spread around so fast that by the end of first period, everyone had heard about. Not only the students but also the teachers and most of all Headmaster Figgins who was everything but pleased with it.
It was in the lunch break that almost everyone had his phone out, looking back at Kurt and Blaine on their small screens. They were all looking at their phones, not believing for a moment what they saw. The kid who was pushed around, was in one moment known around the world.
Some were happy for Kurt, other's felt different.
*back in La*
My brain finally started working again and I started running after Kurt as fast as possible, screaming his name. I was worried about Kurt. I didn't want to think about what could happen with him as he was running around in the dark streets of la with probably no idea where he was going. I was standing at the end of the street, looking to my left and right, when I saw Kurt running.
My legs moved as fast as they could and my throat would probably be sore tomorrow from all the screaming I did. “Kurt, please wait. Common Kurt!”
I was so close but he was yet so far away. It took me a little longer until I finally was close enough to place my hand on his shoulder and turn him around.
Kurt refused to look at him and it broke Blaine's heart. He placed his hand under Kurt's chin so he would look at him. His eyes were red and puffy and some tears will still threatening to fall. Blaine carefully cupped Kurt's cheeks. He didn't give Kurt even a moment to realize what was going to happen before he stood on his tip toes and pressed his lips against Kurt's.
He felt Kurt gasp against his lips but return the kiss. When they both were getting out of breath, Blaine pulled away. He smiled slowly at Kurt and wrapped his arms around Kurt, cuddling into his neck.
“Why?” asked Kurt confused.
Blaine smiled against Kurt's neck and was about to answer when he felt Kurt shiver against him. “Let's talk once we are home. I don't want you to get sick.”
Blaine took Kurt's hand and leaded him back to the party where their car was waiting to bring them home.
Blaine leaded Kurt towards the couch and made a sign to him to sit down. Meanwhile he went to the kitchen and made some coffee. When the coffee was done, he took two cups out of the cupboard and poured some coffee in both of them.
He carefully carried them towards the coffee table and placed them down. He took a seat next to Kurt who took the cup and started drinking carefully, trying to get warm again.
Blaine was worried that Kurt would get sick if he didn't warm up soon enough. The blanket under the coffee table caught his eye. Blaine took it and switched a place to get closer to Kurt. He wrapped the blanket around them and took this as a chance to wrap his arm around Kurt. Kurt placed his cup back on the coffee table and cuddled closer towards Blaine. He placed his head on Blaine's chest and let out a happy sigh.
We sat like that for a while. Enjoying the moment and being close with each other. It was nice. We both tried to get as much warmth from the other as possible as we slowly started to return to a normal temperature. Kurt was the first one to break the silence. “Why did you come after me?”
Blaine frowned. “I would follow you everywhere Kurt. And honestly, I was worried about you. I was scared because you ran away into la in a neighborhood you had never been before at night.”
Kurt stayed silence for a while, deep in thought. Blaine decide to answer the other question that was stilling laying below the surface. “And beside, once my mind caught up with the fact that someone as amazing and beautiful as you would ever want something with me, I couldn't let you run away. Because that's not what I want. If I'm being completely honest, I wished that you could stay here with me forever because you are one of the best things that happened to me in a long time. I don't want you to go back to your life in Lima with those bullies because I know I'll be worried sick that something has happened with you. But I know that's not a possibility. But there is nothing more than I want right now than to date you and become your boyfriend, if you give me the chance to be.”
Kurt shot up from the couch and looked at him with big eyes. “You want to try the big distance thing with me when there are probably a hundred more amazing people and more worthy people living right next to you?”
Blaine smiled at him and tried to pull him a little closer again. “Yes, I want to try it. I know there are probably one million stories going around about how long distance relationships always turn out bad but Kurt, that's not us. We can make our own story but with a good ending. And you are worth it. I don't want to be with someone else because even with this short time we've been spending together, you were able to amaze me by just being you. Not only by how beautiful you look, although that's really really nice,” Blaine said while Kurt giggled and blushed a little, “but also because you are smart and you are funny and because you are one of the most carrying persons I ever met but also because you get me like no one else has ever been able to do.”
Kurt turned around in Blaine's arms and smiled to him. “How could I say no after all you said?”
Blaine grinned at him and pulled Kurt on his lap so he straddled him. He placed his hands on Kurt's cheeks and pulled him closer. “That's the problem, you couldn't even if you wanted to.”
And when the last word left his mouth, he felt Kurt's lips touch his. That moment only made him more sure that Kurt was worth it.
Blaine was leaning against the door while he looked at Kurt closing the last zipper of his suitcase. He sighed. This wasn't something he was looking forward to.
The last day had been amazing. Kurt had received a lot of publicity about the suits he had created. TV shows had found out about this mysterious Kurt and were intrigued to see more and they weren't the only ones. The radio had talked about him, magazines had written about him and social media were full about this mysterious Kurt.
And maybe it was selfish but Blaine wanted to hide him a little longer for the very big public now that Kurt was his. So the last day of Kurt in La they had cuddled on the couch while watching some movies and bad reality TV while keeping up with the sources that had posted about Kurt.
Blaine had never felt more happy, but now he had to watch Kurt leave and he didn't know for how long. If it depended on him, he would have gone back with Kurt to Ohio but that was not an option with all the work that was waiting for him right here in La.
Kurt looked up when the last zipper was closed. “All ready to go,” he said to me with a sad smile.
Blaine opened up his arms as an invite for Kurt and Kurt was more than willing to take the invite. Kurt cuddled into Blaine's chest and took a deep breath.
Blaine rested his head on Kurt's head. “I'm going to miss you so so much Kurt.”
Kurt sniffed a little in his neck. “Yeah me too. I don't know if I'm ready to go back to the way it was.”
Blaine placed his hand under Kurt's chin so he would look at him. “Kurt, no matter what happens when you get back in Ohio, it won't be the same like it was. Because you won't have to face things alone ever again. I might not be right beside you but I'm one phone call away at any time. And if things get out of hand, I promise you that you only have to call or text me and I'll take the first plane out there to be there with you.”
Kurt nodded while a tear escape his eye. Blaine's thumb carefully let the tear disappear. “Don't cry Kurt, that's for the airport,” Blaine said with a big smile.
Kurt couldn't help but chuckle. “You are such a goof. Now I think it's time to really go.”
Blaine looked at the clock and pouted. He wished that the time could turn back while looking at it but wasn't that what so many people wanted in life.
A sigh escaped his lips. “Yeah, I guess you are right.” Blaine took Kurt's suitcase and waited for Kurt to take his bag before they made their way downstairs where the car was waiting to take them to the airport.
The whole way, that sat close next to each other, cuddling and trying to memorize every single thing about the other.
When they arrived at the airport, Blaine cursed loudly. “You've got to be kidding me.”
At the entrance were standing a dozen paparazzo, waiting for a celebrity that would probably leave at the same time.
Blaine went with his hand through his hair. “I think it's pointless even if I put on a cap and sunglasses. I mean, you've been practically all the media has been talking about yesterday and today.”
“We couldn't always try,” said Kurt.
“Ok let's try. But you should also wear sunglasses. Not only so they can't see your eyes but also because the flashes can hurt really badly when you don't wear them.” Blaine placed a cap on his head and placed sunglasses on his face. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Kurt put on his sunglasses as well.
“Let's face them,” Blaine sighed.
He signed for the driver that he didn't have to open the trunk for them. It would only attract more attention. Blaine stepped out of the car and held the door open for Kurt. Waiting for him to get outside.
When Kurt left the car, he walked towards the trunk and took out the suitcase from Kurt. He closed the trunk and took Kurt's hand, trying to walk as fast as possible towards the entrance with trying to attract as less attention as possible.
They walked through the entrance with a sigh, happy that they hadn't seem to notice. But of course, it couldn't last long. “OH MY GOSH, IS THAT BLAINE ANDERSON?” was all they heard before hell broke loose. Blaine cursed the fan who had noticed a little in his head as he and Kurt tried to walk as fast as possible towards a more quiet place where they could say their goodbyes.
They found a relative quiet corner, even with the paparazzo following them, as they had to keep their distance. Blaine pulled Kurt over towards a corner and let him lean against the wall.
“I wish we had time to cuddle and kiss a little longer, but really I don't think that's the smartest idea with all those paparazzo hanging around here. I want you safe.”
Kurt nodded to Blaine. “I know. But please be safe when you go back outside ok? I don't want anything to happen with you and I've heard all these horror stories about paparazzo getting crazy when they see a celeb.”
Blaine silenced him with a kiss. “I'll be safe. Don't you worry about me.”
Blaine pulled Kurt close in a hug, taking in the smell that could only be Kurt. He pressed a small kiss on his neck. “Let me take you to check in so I know everything is ok and then I let you go to your gate.”
Kurt nodded and took his hand again. They searched the right check-in which was quiet difficult with all those paparazzo hanging around.
They were lucky that not many people were waiting to check-in when Kurt arrived. While they waited, they took the time to cuddle some more, trying to ignore the paparazzo waiting around.
“You know that tomorrow you'll probably be bombarded as you are now for them Blaine Anderson his boyfriend, right?” Blaine said in Kurt's ear.
“I don't mind. After all that's what I am so they might as well know the truth.” Kurt shrugged.
When it was Kurt's time to check-in, Blaine helped him with everything until everything was alright for him to leave. Blaine walked them towards the point he couldn't go further. There weren't a lot of people, waiting to go through the check.
Blaine pulled Kurt close one last time. “I promise you that as soon as I get a little time of, I take the first plane so I can be with you. Meanwhile, we'll have to do with skype dates and late night phone calls.”
Kurt giggled a little. “Yeah, I guess we have to. Promise to at least text me every day.”
“You know I promise to call you every day. How about that?” Kurt nodded at him with a smile. “Yeah, I like that.”
Blaine leaned forward and for the last time in god knows how many time, they kissed each other. There was so much feelings behind that kiss that they both were a little light headed afterwards. “I see you soon, Blaine.”
Blaine stood on his tip toes and pressed a last kiss on Kurt's cheek. “I see you soon, Kurt.”
He watched Kurt go through the check. He didn't want to cry or at least the paparazzo to see it but he didn't want to put his sunglasses back on either. He wanted to see Kurt's eyes for as long as possible.
They waved to each other as long as possible, before Kurt was out of sight.
