and before i forget, Kurt deleted his picture and changed his name on tumblr. Otherwise it would have been way to easy for the fans to figure out ;)
A few weeks passed. Kurt and Blaine had found a routine, well sort of. There were frustrated times when one or the other couldn't meet up for their online date and sometimes they had to replace their appointments, but in the end they always found a way.
Until recently at least. Blaine had been quite busy in the studio with his band. After his trip to Ohio, he had felt inspired. The words seemed to run out of his body on the page and slowly the words started to dance into a melody.
Kurt on the other hand was busy with cheerio practice. He had forgotten how hard it was to cheer for Sue Sylvester but still he felt grateful for what she had done for him. The bullying had lessen a lot more. It was like his cheerio outfit was a shield that protected him from high school and if that's the price he had to pay, he would do it again every time.
Blaine was sitting in a meeting, talking with his management. They were thinking about adding a few concerts in the next two weeks and Blaine happily agreed. He wanted to take every chance he got to perform, even if it was just to keep the fans happy.
Wes was talking about the venues where they could play and discussing the option of some meet and greet tickets. Blaine started to feel excited and agreed with the others that meet and greets would be fine by them.
Wes started talking animatedly when a phone went off. Blaine felt his cheeks turn red and started grabbing into his bag for his phone, silently cursing the person on the other line for calling right that moment.
He finally found the phone and looked at the screen which showed a picture of Kurt. “Guys, do you mind if I take this? I won't be long.”
They all nodded and waved to the door, although Wes didn't seem so pleased. Blaine quickly walked outside. As the door closed behind him, the call ended.
Silently cursing, he redialed the number. He waited like a minute until Kurt's voice filled his ear. “Hi Blaine, oh my god you won't believe this…”
“Euhm Kurt? I can't right now. I'm in the middle of a meeting,” said Blaine silently.
“Oh,” he heard Kurt saying, sounding a little disappointed. “Should I call you back later?”
Blaine went with his hand over his face. “I don't know how late this meeting will run out. How about I call you back if it's not too late?”
“Ok,” he heard Kurt say, the disappointment growing heavily in his voice. “Bye Blaine,” was the only thing said before the line went death.
Blaine let out a loud curse. His hands went through his curls. Trying to calm himself, he took a few deep breaths before entering the meeting room.
Jeff, Nick, David and Wes looked up at him as he entered the room. Nick frowned. “You ok bud?”
Blaine shrugged. “I'll be. Now tell me what I missed.”
The others looked at each other and shrugged before going back to the topic. Lucky for Blaine they didn't seem to notice how his mind was miles away, to a boy who was laying on his bed doing the same.
Turn off the noise, was the first thing that popped into his mind. His hand slowly started hitting around, trying to turn off his alarm clock.
He felt happier once the noise was down. Slowly he turned around and tried to catch the last bit of sleep left. His mind started to get cloudy and he could feel himself slip away … And oh, there was the irritating noise again.
Blaine sat up and slapped onto the right button this time instead of the snooze. He rubbed his eyes, trying to get a little more awake.
His other hand started to feel around, trying to find his phone. He opened his eyes slowly when he found his phone, grimacing at the light.
You have 2 missed calls and 4 new messages. Read his screen.
He unlocked his phone and went to the messages.
Blaine? Are you ok? I know you said you wouldn't call if it was late but well I still haven't heard from you and I'm a little worried. Please call me? xoxo Kurt.
He frowned as he read to the others. All of them saying the same until the fourth.
Guess I will hear you later. Going to school now. Have a good day. Kurt
He sighed as he listened to the voice mails, wanting to hear Kurt's voice. Kurt sounded worried but most of all tired.
Blaine went to his messages and types a small reply.
Don't worry, had a busy day and fell asleep. Call you tonight? I love you Blaine xoxo.
He placed the phone back on his night table. Slowly he let his feet touch the ground while he stretched himself a little.
A shower sounded like heaven right now as he had a long day ahead.
And hopefully he would hear from Kurt soon enough so they could talk a little. He missed him.
Blaine was sitting in the meeting room with the others. In front of him stood a camera. It was late in the afternoon. Everyone should be done by now with school and they had just finished another song in the studio. Short, it was the perfect moment to do a live chat.
Jeff, Nick, David and Wes were talking excitedly about the prospect of announcing a little tour. Blaine on the other hand wasn't there with his mind. He hadn't heard from Kurt all day and honestly he worried a little.
He was so lost in thought that he didn't saw the hand coming closer until he felt it hit the back of his head. “Hey man, you ok? You seem out of it,” said Nick.
Blaine shrugged. “I haven't heard from Kurt since yesterday and he didn't sound to happy so I'm a little worried.”
Nick frowned at him. “Don't worry bud, it will all be ok. You guys love each other right?”
Blaine nodded. “Yeah we do.”
Nick smiled at him, “See nothing to worry about!”
Blaine started laughing. “I wish the world was that easy.”
Nick let out a huff. “It could be that easy you know if people stopped being close minded and just stopped making things so difficult.”
“Never change Nick, never change,” Blaine said while laughing, feeling a little lighter.
Wes looked at his phone and smiled at them. “It's time guys.”
He stood behind the camera which was connected to a laptop a little further.
Blaine took a seat in the middle and waited until Wes gave a sigh and the little light turned red.
“Hi guys, thank you for joining us. It means a lot to us! We have an announcement to make but first we thought it would be fun if we answered some of your questions so keep sending us your questions and we try to answer as many as possible.”
They all took out their phones and started to ask the others some of the funnier questions inside it. Like there was this girl who asked them how they would call a monkey if they ever had one.
Blaine forgot for a while about his troubles until Jeff looked at him. “Ok is it me or do most of the people want to know if you are still happily together with someone called Kurt.”
They started hollering and Blaine plastered a fake smile on his face. “Yeah, everything is going great. Of course it isn't easy as we live so far away but I love him a lot, just as much as I miss him right now.”
He looked straight in the camera, hoping Kurt would see that it killed him just as much as it must have killed Kurt.
The questions kept on coming until Wes made a sign behind the camera.
“Ok guys,” said Blaine. “I think it's time for our announcement.”
He winked at the screen and looked at the other's. And that's how each of them started to say names of music halls. Jeff was already grinning when he read the replies on twitter.
Blaine breathed out the last name. “Now I hope we made some of you really happy. And don't worry if your city isn't in the list yet. We have an album coming out really really soon and we promise you that we'll come to your city as well! We love you guys and thanks for joining us. Until next time!”
The red light went out and the boys hugged each other. “Guess we are going on tour. I can't believe though that this Friday, we'll be already doing our first concert,” said Jeff.
“You better believe it,” grinned Nick as he patted Jeff's back.
Blaine felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He took out his phone and smiled when Kurt pic showed on the screen.
He opened the message and read it. I miss you too Warbler. I love you Kurt xoxo.
Blaine smiled, maybe things would be ok after all.
Days had passed and it was already Friday! To say Blaine felt nervous would be an understatement.
They had decided as they played 6 concert that they would play each night a new song. He couldn't wait though to see what the fans thought about the new music.
The last few days had been busy with arranging everything as the first show was so close.
And don't get Blaine wrong, he was happy to be playing tonight but the last few days had really drained him already and the tour hadn't begun yet.
There is one reason that explained why he felt that way, Kurt. They hadn't been able to talk the past few days and if they could talk, it was only for a minute and honestly, it wasn't enough.
Blaine was worried that it would become too much for Kurt and he didn't want to lose the one thing that mattered the most for him.
He walked around the hallway of the concert hall, trying to get his mind focused but each time, it went back to Kurt.
He heard how Jeff, Nick and David made their way towards him. “Hi Blaine, we kind of need you right now for the meet and greets. You ready?”
Blaine nodded and followed them into the small room. Jeff was looking on his phone as they waited and let out a chuckle.
Blaine frowned and tried to look on the screen. “What's so funny Jeffry.”
Jeff looked mad at him when he heard the nickname. “It's Jeff, Blaine! Or you become Blainey!”
Blaine let out a huff. “You do as you like, now can I see what's funny?”
“Well it isn't so much funny,” said Jeff and he held out his phone to Blaine.
On the screen was a drawing of him. Blaine recognized the moment immediately. He had been laying on Kurt's bed as Kurt had tried to take a picture of him. They had started a playfully fight over the phone which ended with Kurt holding the phone triumphantly and taking a picture of Blaine laughing hardly.
Kurt had loved the picture a lot although Blaine had his doubts once he saw the end result. The drawing was perfect though.
He let out a happy sigh. “He is so talented,” he said under his breath.
“Yeah, the fans are kind of freaking out, wondering on which photo it's based,” Jeff said while shaking his head and laughing.
“Guess they'll never know,” winked Blaine, just as the first group entered the room.
The girls let out a loud shriek and Blaine wanted to wrap his hands over his ears, but knew that wouldn't be appreciated so he smiled politely, hoping that he would still hear before the concert.
The concert was going amazingly. Blaine gave his all on stage, enjoying how the crowd cheered. It was like energy they gave him. The sweat dripped from his face and his back but he didn't care as he shook his head to get some sweat out of his hair.
The notes of the last song left the room.
“So tonight has been pretty amazing yet and you know us, we want to end in style,” grinned Blaine as he played with the microphone stand.
“So tonight we give you one song from the new album,” he said and immediately and crowd went wild.
The music started to fill the room already. Blaine looked around once more and let the words fall from his lips.
Mmmmm...
Im booking myself a one-way flight
I gotta see the color in your eyes
Yeah tellin myself Im gonna be alright
Without you baby is a waste of time
Yeah, our first date, boy, the seasons changed
It got washed away in a summer rain
You cant undo a fall like this
Cause love dont know what distance is
Yeah, I know its crazy
But I dont want "good" and I dont want "good enough"
I want "cant sleep, cant breathe without your love"
Front porch and one more kiss, it doesnt make sense to anybody else
Who cares if youre all I think about,
Ive searched the world and I know now,
It aint right if you aint lost your mind
Yeah, I dont want easy, I want crazy
Are you with me baby? Lets be crazy
Yeah
I wanna be scared, dont wanna know why
Wanna feel good, dont have to be right
The world makes all kinds of rules for love
I say you gotta let it do what it does
I dont want just another hug and a kiss goodnight
Catchin up calls and a date sometimes
I love that were rebels, and we still believe
Were the kind of crazy people wish that they could be, yeah
Oh, and I know were crazy, yeah
But I dont want "good" and I dont want "good enough"
I want "cant sleep, cant breathe without your love"
Front porch and one more kiss, it doesnt make sense to anybody else
Who cares if youre all I think about,
Ive searched the world and I know now,
It aint right if you aint lost your mind
Yeah, I dont want easy, I want crazy
You with me baby? Lets be crazy
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
No, I dont want "good" and I dont want "good enough"
I want "cant sleep, cant breathe without your love"
Front porch and one more kiss, it doesnt make sense to anybody else
Who cares if youre all I think about,
Ive searched the world and I know now,
It aint right if you aint lost your mind
Yeah, I dont want easy, I want crazy
Yeah, look at us baby, tonight the midnight rules are breaking
Theres no such thing as wild enough,
And maybe we just think too much
Who needs to play it safe in love?
Lets be crazy!
Na na na na oh na na na na oh
Who cares if were crazy? We gotta be crazy!
I know that were crazy, so lets be crazy!
Yeah-ah-ah...
The crowd went wild. Blaine smiled at the others, who had already wrapped him into a group hug.
“Thanks guys for coming tonight. We love you and get home save!” they all screamed in Blaine's microphone before they made a bow together. They waved one last time before they left the stage.
Blaine was leaning against the wall, slowly trying to get his breathing back to normal. The last bit of adrenaline was slowly leaving his body.
He closed his eyes and just enjoyed the cold feeling of the wall against his back.
Blaine started to shut the voices out and just tried to calm back down from the high he had lived on.
Around him he heard footsteps and voices mingled together. It was sort of like music with a strange melody.
His breathing evened out more and he was about to open his eyes when he felt a hand touch his. His eyes opened and then his mouth fell open.
He blinked his eyes a few times, trying to determine if this was real or if he must have fallen asleep.
“Hi Blaine,” said Kurt, playing with the flowers into his hand.
And Blaine lost it. He jumped forward and pressed Kurt against the wall on the opposite side. His hands cupped Kurt's face, not caring about the flowers. He moved forward until his breath mingled with Kurt's. And then their lips met into the slow dance that heard by them. He let his teeth nip at Kurt's bottom lip until Kurt opened his mouth and let Blaine enjoy the feeling of coming home.
Blaine had no idea how long they stood there but if you would ask him, he would have said not long enough.
He wanted to remember every piece of Kurt over again. But apparently the other's had another idea.
“Hobbit don't eat Hummel's face. He has a show tomorrow and Sue would kill you personally,” he heard a voice he recognized vaguely.
He let his lips linger a little longer, trying to block the voice out. And he had to admit that went pretty well until he felt a hand push his face forward until it knocked with Kurt's.
Kurt looked up angry. “Santana it's enough, give me a moment.”
She rolled her eyes and took a stand against the wall where Britt was also standing together with Jeff, Wes, David and Nick.
“You know we only had permission to come and see the concert from Sue. We have to be back in twenty minutes and I won't give up my spot on the team because you had to see your hobbit,” said Santana as he linked her pinky with Britt.
“I know Santana,” he said bitchy.
Then he looked back at Blaine. “I guess I have to go for tonight at least,” he said sounding sadly.
“You can't go home with me?” whispered Blaine into Kurt's ear as he tried to hug Kurt a little tighter, wishing that would keep Kurt into his arms.
“I wish I could but I have a cheerleading competition tomorrow and I need my beauty sleep if we want to win this thing and not get killed by Sue,” Kurt said.
Blaine frowned. “How do I not know about this cheerleading competition?”
“You were bussy,” shrugged Kurt. “Although you can make it up by me by coming to my cheering competition.”
Blaine looked at Wes for approval. Normally they would rehearse tomorrow as their next show was on Sunday. He put his face on full puppy mood.
Wes threw his hands up in the air. “Fine but you better be amazing on Sunday Blaine Anderson!”
Blaine grinned and turned back to Kurt. “I guess I have to let you go for now, but tomorrow, I take you on a proper date, how does that sound?”
Kurt nodded. “I was kind of hoping you would say that as I stay until Monday evening,” grinned Kurt.
Blaine wrapped his arms tightly around Kurt. “if you have more surprises, I think I might explode from happiness.”
Kurt started giggling. “You better don't, I see you tomorrow Blaine?”
“I see you tomorrow,” said Blaine as he pressed a kiss against Kurt's lips. “I love you so much.”
“I love you too,” breathed Kurt. He kissed Blaine once more until he followed Santana and Brittany out of the building, all the while waving until he couldn't see Blaine anymore.
Blaine was laying in his bed. His heart was pounding, knowing Kurt was so close.
He promised himself right that moment that he would make most of the day they had together. Showing Kurt how much he loved him.
His heart made a little jump when his phone vibrated on his chest. Got in my room savely. You were amazing tonight and I'm happy I at least got to see you for a little bit. I can't wait for tomorrow! I mailed you the information of the competition. I love you Blaine so much xoxo Kurt. Ps. Goodnight!
Blaine let out a happy sigh when he read the message. His fingers started typing a reply. I loved your surprise Kurt, you have no idea! I can't wait to have the next few days for us. I love you too baby so so so much! Xoxo Blaine sweet dreams!
He turned off the noise of his phone and placed it on his night table. He turned off the light and let his mind drift away to the perfect moment when he came home again.
