Kurt was looking at the phone in his hands, not really caring if the phone next of him kept on ringing.
He had made a stupid mistake and he knew it. How could he not have realized that he had been abandoning Blaine?
He let his head fall against his desk as he kept on going over the past few days.
Slowly the puzzle pieces started to fall into the right places. His mind kept going back to every time when he had not picked up his phone, every time he hadn't replied his texts and every time he had just said hello but never something more.
How had he let it go this far?
With a deep sigh he took up the phone next to him. He would figure out something later, now he needed to do his job, before he had more trouble at his mind.
For the rest of the day, work was the most far from his mind. But slowly a plan started to form in his head.
Kurt kept on playing with his phone. His finger hovering over the skype call button.
But somehow his finger never pressed the button. Why he didn't know. It was quite easy right?
And then he heard a voice from the other side, “Kurt?”
Kurt looked up to see Blaine look at him confused, not as angry anymore as he had sounded on the phone.
“Hi Blaine,” Kurt said softly as he looked towards Blaine, still feeling the sadness that had overtaken him for the past day.
“You ok Kurt,” Blaine asked worriedly as he looked carefully at Kurt.
Kurt let out a sigh as he let his hand wander through his hair, something he never did as he was scared to mess up his hair. It meant he was really not doing ok.
“I'm not really,” Kurt said as he looked at Blaine, worry lines covering his forehead. “I've been thinking about calling you ever since you hung up on me.”
The frown on Blaine's face softened as he looked curiously, leaning his head a little more to the left.
“I've never been good with words, so I wanted to sing something for you, if that's ok with you,” Kurt said.
Blaine nodded, still looking like a confused puppy towards the screen.
Kurt took his iPod from the table and started playing the music, closing his eyes as he started to sing out the words.
No New Year's Day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring
No song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day
No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is, is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
No summer's high
No warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No Libra sun
No Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is, though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart,
of my heart
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart,
baby of my heart
Kurt almost didn't dare to open his eyes as he sang the last words out loud.
When he did open his eyes, he saw Blaine look at him with a soft smile, “that was beautiful Kurt.”
Kurt couldn't help but smile softly himself, “I know this doesn't fix us,” he said pointing between himself and the screen.
“But I do want you to know that it never was my intention to abandon you the way I did,” Kurt sighed. “New York life has been so much busier than I expected. I have to go to classes, have to do my job and there is barely time left for everything else. But those or no excuses. I should have noticed something was wrong, should have spent more time catching up with you.”
His hand wandered once more through his neatly styles hair, “It just took me you calling me angry to finally realize how stupid I have been. I should have called you more to say I love you because I really do Blaine and I hope you can forgive me or we can at least try to fix this. I'm not ready to let you go yet.”
Blaine let out a soft chuckle as he looked a bit amused towards the screen, “and you said you weren't good with words,” he said playfully.
“I love you Kurt. One fight want change that. Maybe I should have said something sooner,” he shrugged, “but the thing is it happened and now we can work on it.”
Kurt felt a tear leak out of his eye, “thank you.”
Blaine frowned, “for what?”
“For being the best boyfriend ever,” Kurt said with a soft smile.
Blaine let out a chuckle, “I'm not. I just love you in case you hadn't noticed … a lot!”
Kurt couldn't help but let out toothy grin spread over his lips, “I love you too … a lot.”
Blaine started chuckling as he looked at him with a look that Kurt could only describe as pure love. The look that made his inside go weak and his heart flutter that little bit faster.
“So you called me to say you loved me,” Blaine asked after a while, a happy glint in his eyes.
“I did,” Kurt agreed, “and I will every day at least 20 times text you or call you to say I love you. I'll never let it go this far again.”
Blaine nodded his head, “I think I'd like that.”
They talked for the rest of the evening and more than halfway through the night, catching up on the past few weeks as Blaine kept on teasing him every once in a while that he should call more.
They weren't ok every night but they learned from that day on, slowly getting to the point where they once were again.
And when Blaine stood by his door on a Friday night, telling him he needed to come by to say he loved him, he knew there was nothing that would ever stop them from being them.
