Blaine walked into a large room with Jeff, Nick, David and Wes. Inside were lots of people either on the stands or with their team warming up.
Jeff placed a hand on his shoulder, “Let's find a good spot.”
They placed their caps a little further on their heads and tried to mingle with the crowd. They found some good seats while trying to get unnoticed.
Blaine was looking around the room, trying to find the person he was looking for. Jeff grinned at him and pointed into a direction. His eyes squared over every inch of the place Jeff was point at and that's when he saw him.
Kurt was standing in his red cheerio costume, doing some kind of flip flops.
“You never told me he was that flexible,” grinned Jeff.
Blaine slapped his head. “Behave Jeffery,” he grinned.
Jeff crossed his arms and started pouting. “If you once more call met Jeffery, Blaine, I will,” Jeff started saying but the threat never finished as Nick came in between.
“Guys behave, we have to stay unnoticed ok?” he whispered.
Jeff looked angry at Blaine but nodded his head as Blaine did the same.
They saw cheer team after cheer team do their routine. Some were good, others weren't.
Blaine felt pity for one group who couldn't even finish it's routine as their star had hurt her ankle while doing a flip. Blaine couldn't even think about what would happen if he saw Kurt fall like that and he rather didn't think about it.
Group passed after group and Jeff started to lose his patient. “When is Kurt's group?”
Blaine looked at him. “I have no idea but from the looks of it I think he is close to last.”
Jeff whined for a little longer but started cheering when Kurt came up. “Go Kurt,” he screamed. And Blaine saw even from his seat that Kurt's cheek were slowly turning pink.
Kurt stepped in front and started speaking through the microphone hanging in front of his mouth. “We are the McKinley cheerio's from Lima in Ohio.”
Music started to play and everyone took positions. Their routine was amazing and although Blaine didn't know half of the things they were doing, he was amazed.
Not only by the group but most of all by Kurt. He was doing the routine perfect while singing along to a Madonna medley.
Right in that moment, he felt like he had fallen even more in love with Kurt, even though he didn't think it was possible.
When the routine ended, Blaine jumped up and started clapping really hard and hollering with the crowd.
He was incredibly proud of Kurt and after that routine, he was sure Kurt would win this with McKinley.
A few other group's had passed after Kurt's but neither of those were as good as Kurt's group. Just like Blaine expected, they won.
The coach took the cup and held it in the air as all cheerios started hugging each other, still high on adrenaline.
People slowly started to leave the building and Blaine waited until the last few people were still sitting down to leave his spot. The group walked towards Kurt's group, still celebrating a little.
Blaine sneaked towards Kurt and wrapped his arms around Kurt's waist, his chest pressing in Kurt's back. “Congratulations Kurt,” he whispered into Kurt's ear.
He felt the shiver go through Kurt's spine. Kurt turned around slowly and wrapped his arms around Blaine's neck. “Thank you,” he whispered as he kissed Blaine's lips sweetly.
“Thank you for coming to this, it means a lot to me,” he said to Blaine as he started smiling softly.
“I wouldn't want to be anywhere else,” Blaine said sincerely. “How about I take you away from here? I think I could use a little time with just the two of us.”
Kurt nodded his head. “Yeah, I would like that. Let me tell the coach and then we can go. I still have to pick up my stuff from the hotel though.”
Blaine nodded and waited until Kurt had everything done. Blaine said bye to the boys who congratulated Kurt too and said bye to Santana and Britt before leaving.
They first went to the hotel to get Kurt's stuff and then drove to Blaine's place.
Kurt let himself fall down on the couch, too tired to even move.
Blaine chuckled from where he was leaning against the wall. “Tired?” he asked.
“A little,” sighed Kurt. “I forgot how tired you get after competitions and how sore you muscles get.”
Blaine took the bag he had placed on the ground and walked towards his room. “How about I make you a nice bath? It will relax you and it will help your muscles.”
“You must be a gift from heaven,” said Kurt under his breath.
Blaine smirked at him. “You should probably call me god by now.”
Kurt stuck out his tongue and let himself fall back against the soft leather of the couch.
Blaine chuckled as he walked towards his bedroom. He placed Kurt's bag on the bed and went straight to the bathroom to fill the bath.
He watched the tub fill slowly as a déjà-vu moment appeared in his mind of the first time he had made a bath for Kurt.
His fingers ran over the water as his mind went somewhere else. He was so happy to have Kurt here and he wanted to make the most of it.
When the bath was full, he turned off the tab and went to get Kurt who was thankfully not yet asleep.
“Kurt, your bath is ready,” Blaine said softly.
Kurt sat up on the couch and stretched himself tiredly. “Thanks Blaine,” he said as he stood up and walked towards the bathroom.
He stopped in front of Blaine and pressed a kiss against his cheek before he let the door close behind him.
Blaine was humming in the kitchen. To be honest, he didn't have a lot into his fridge at the moment but he had enough to make a nice dinner.
There was making some wok from the vegetables he had found and started grilling some chicken.
Blaine felt a pair of warm arms wrap around his waist. “How was the bath,” Blaine asked.
“It was amazing. Thank you,” Kurt said in Blaine's neck. Blaine couldn't control the shiver going up his spine.
Kurt giggled in his neck. “I'm so happy to be here. I missed you so much.”
“I missed you too Kurt,” Blaine sighed as he let his head fall back against Kurt's shoulder. “I wish you could stay here but I know it's not an option so let's make most of tonight and tomorrow, ok?”
Kurt nodded his head and pressed a last kiss against Blaine's neck. He slowly unwrapped his arms from Blaine's waist.
Kurt took a spoon and tasted a bit of the wok. A low moan escaped his throat. “I think I'm going to stay here forever if you cook for me like this every day.”
Blaine chuckled. “Oh I see how it is. Only staying with me for the cooking.”
Kurt shrugged and took a seat on the counter. “You wouldn't mind if you had me by your side.”
Blaine walked towards Kurt, stood on his tiptoes and pressed a kiss against Kurt's forehead. “You are one hundred percent right.”
Blaine turned the chicken once more on the grill and looked back at Kurt. “You can take a seat Kurt. Dinner is ready.”
Kurt hopped of the counter and walked into the living room. He took a seat at the table which had two little tea lights on it.
Blaine walked into the room, balancing two plates on his arm. “I know it isn't much but well it's all I got at home,” he said with a blush.
Kurt giggled. “It's ok Blaine. I love it.”
He saw Blaine let out a breath of relieve as he placed a plate in front of Kurt. “Here you go.”
Then he poured some water into Kurt's glass. “Bonn appetite,” Blaine grinned.
They enjoyed the dinner together. Some words were said in between but most of all they enjoyed the silence and the company of each other.
After dinner, Blaine blew out the candles and took Kurt's hand. He leaded them to the bedroom and lay own on the bed. Kurt following close behind.
They just lay together, looking at each other. It had been way to long since they had seen each other.
Blaine's hand slowly cupped Kurt's face. “God Kurt, you have no idea how much I missed you. I thought I was going to lose you,” Blaine whispered. His eyes started to fill with tears.
Kurt frowned a she looked at him. “What are you talking about Blaine,” he whispered back.
Blaine blinked his eyes a couple of times, trying to get rid of the tears that were slowly forming into his eyes. “The last few days,” he said as he looked down at Kurt's lips.
He pressed his lips slowly against Kurt's as he felt the need to verify that Kurt was really right there with him.
Kurt slowly pulled away and looked into Blaine's eyes. A little smile forming on his lips. “I'm going to need more than those words to figure this out Blaine.”
Blaine rolled on his back and looked at the ceiling. “It's just that the last few days have been hectic and I hated it each time I couldn't come online or call you or even text you. And then when I heard your voice, god Kurt, I could hear you were so disappointed if I had to leave early or didn't have time to talk to you. I thought you might have had enough Kurt.”
Kurt let himself lay down on Blaine's chest. His eyes looking straight into Blaine's. “Blaine, we knew it wasn't going to be easy when we started this. Yet we chose to give it a try because we knew it was worth it. And while it might not be ideal, I wouldn't want it any other way. You helped me through so much Blaine. You helped me being strong to fight my bullies, you helped me follow my dreams when I felt at my worst and you made me feel loved when I felt like nothing even mattered any more. And some days there are days where I wonder how you even fell for me but then I realize it doesn't matter because I love you and you love me and that's all that should matter.”
Kurt took Blaine's hand and placed it on his chest. “You feel that? It's what keeps me alive. You keep me alive.”
Kurt leaned forward and kissed Blaine slowly. Blaine wrapped his arms around Kurt's waist and pulled him closer.
They stayed like that for as long as their lungs accepted. They pulled apart as Blaine whispered between them. “I love you too Blaine, so much. There is one thing you are wrong though. I didn't help you being strong, that was all you because you are the strongest and most lovable person I know.”
That's how they spend their night together, cuddled up, whispering sweet nothings and trying to absorb as much as possible of each other. Knowing that tomorrow would be their last day together in a while.
