I WISH YOU ALL A HAPPY NEW YEAR! may all your dreams and wishes come true!
Kurt didn't know how to break the silence. Blaine wouldn't even look at him. Kurt had been looking around and he had gotten a call for an audition. He had meant to tell Blaine but just that moment, Blaine had gotten a call that he would be going to Europe. Blaine had been so busy with everything about his tour and he hadn't gotten the time yet to tell him. He had barely seen Blaine at all.
When Kurt had auditioned, months had passed. He didn't hear a thing and thought that they didn't want him. When he received the call to tell him he had the role, he was surprised. He had asked about the details and he had found out that he would be needed in August to rehears. Blaine would be in Europe and Kurt would only be able to join in July.
Kurt looked up to see Blaine looking at him. It made him feel a little uncomfortable. “How long do you know, Kurt?”
“How long I know about the chance I might join the cast or when I got the role?”
“Both?”
“Euhm … The chance I might get the role in January when you got your call for the European tour actually and that I would join the cast a few weeks ago?”
“Why didn't you tell me? I thought we could trust each other and tell each other everything.”
Kurt was playing with the edge of the blanket. “I didn't want to disappointed you and then I barely saw you. It was never the right time I guess.”
Blaine stayed silent. “I'm happy for you, you know?”
Kurt looked up to see Blaine looking at the ceiling. “I wished you could come with me to Europe though the second month. I'm going to miss you insane. I had planned to see all cities with you and now I'll be alone.”
“You won't be alone. You have the boys.”
“It's not the same.”
“I know.”
Blaine looked down in Kurt's eyes. “We should get some sleep. We can talk tomorrow.”
Without a word he turned around and closed his eyes. The night was cold as they both laid separately. No one was able to sleep.
Blaine just couldn't sleep. Kurt had fallen asleep a while ago. He looked up to the alarm clock. He tried to read it, but his eyes were too tired. He picked up his glasses and pushed them on his nose. The display showed it was barely six in the morning.
Blaine just stood up and went to the bathroom as silent as he could to clean himself up a little. He took a quick shower and brushed his teeth. Blaine went to the closet. He opted for a black ripped jeans, white shirt, black letter jacket, his black all-stars and a black hoodie.
He needed to get out of the penthouse for a while. Blaine went downstairs. No one was up yet. He grabbed a paper and wrote a little message for Kurt which he placed on the fridge.
Blaine walked out of the building. Fresh air was exactly what he needed. He strolled around a bit, no idea where he was going. He saw he was close to central park and decided to stroll around a bit.
He looked at the sky which looked grey today, like it mocked him. Blaine sat down on the ground next to the tree where he and Kurt had had a picnic with Kurt's parents a while ago.
It wasn't that Blaine was upset with Kurt. He was more disappointed. He had made so many plans for during the tour and now they all faded away. He would be all alone. It was not at all how he had imagined it. He understood that Kurt wanted to live his dreams but he knew they would be going to Europe. Blaine sighed, closed his eyes and leant his head against the tree.
Kurt woke up an hour after Blaine left. The bed was cold and he turned around to see Blaine's place was cold and empty. Kurt walked to the bathroom and took a long shower. He brushed his teeth, got dressed and went to see if Blaine was downstairs. His dad and Carole were sitting at the table, drinking coffee. “Morning kiddo.”
“Morning, Where's Blaine?”
“Isn't he with you?”
“No, he isn't.” Kurt frowned a little and went to the kitchen to pour a cup of coffee. He noticed a note on the fridge and lifted it up. Good morning Kurt, you probably noticed I'm gone. No need to worry though, I just couldn't sleep and I needed to get out and some fresh air. I'll be home later. X Blaine.
Nothing more was left. Kurt felt bad after last night. He went to sit at the table with his mug and the note still in his hand. “What is wrong kiddo?”
Kurt gave Burt the note and sipped his coffee. “Something happened? Last night you both seemed fine.”
Kurt was looking at the coffee in his mug like it was the most interesting thing he had ever seen. “Blaine didn't know I had a role.”
“You didn't tell him?”
“Not really.”
Burt scratched his head. “Why not Kurt? I thought you guys shared everything?”
“I didn't tell him because I won't be able to go with him during the second part of the tour. I told him yesterday evening. I don't know if he was mad or disappointed. He was silent and just looked at me.”
Carole and Burt changed confused glances. “You should talk to him when he is back. I'm sure you will figure this out.”
They started to talk about lighter stuff and ate breakfast together, just like the old days.
Blaine was getting cold. He looked at his watch to see an hour had past. His phone signed he had a new message, Wesley. Man, you should see all these fan stuff. They arrived today and they look amazing. Blaine sighed. He really didn't want to think much about it now. Kurt isn't coming with us in august.
Blaine stood up and strolled around once more. He didn't want to go home yet. Where are you? I'll come and get you so we can get some coffee and talk. Blaine looked around to explain Wes where he was but there was not a real point that Wes would recognise. Somewhere in central park. Wes would find him he thought.
Wes didn't reply but after a few minutes he walked towards Blaine. He wasn't alone though. Jeff and David walked next to him. Before Blaine had time to greet them, he felt six arms around him. “Man you look tired. Have you slept?”
“Not really. Last night was pretty late and then Kurt told me and I just couldn't sleep.”
“Let's change plans. We go to your house and let you sleep a little or we can watch some movies. Kurt will be out with the New Directions and his family today.” Blaine just nodded and followed the boys.
Kurt, Burt and Carole were waiting for the New Direction. Kurt had insisted they waited a while longer to see if Blaine would come along but Blaine hadn't showed up and it was time for them to meet the new directions. They would go sightseeing today and everyone was very enthusiast. Kurt got pulled in a group hug but they all saw something was wrong.
They were walking at time square when Mercedes pulled Kurt a little aside while everyone took pictures. “Tell me white boy, what is going on?”
“Nothing Mercy, I just don't feel good today.”
Mercedes was looking at him, trying to detect if he lied or not. “Something happened last night?”
Kurt just shrugged. “Common Boo, You know you can trust me.”
“It's just Blaine left this morning and we didn't talk any further.”
“So it's something with that boy of you?”
Kurt just nodded. “I got a part in a Broadway show.”
Mercedes shrieked and pulled him in a hug. “I'm so happy for you. But that doesn't explain why you are so sad today.”
“I was supposed to join Blaine on tour two months and now I can't go with him the last months because I've to rehearse.”
“And you know that you would be joining him on tour before you got the role?” Kurt felt his shoulder slump and just nodded.
“You will works this out together you know. That boy is head over heels with you.”
“Let's hope so.”
Mercedes pulled him in a big hug. “I know so. Now smile and take some pictures with me. It's not every day that I'm in New York with my favourite white boy.”
Kurt smiled at that. “I missed you Mercy.”
“Oh Boo I missed you too you know.” They joined the New Directions and took some pictures together.
Blaine was laying in his bed, asleep. Wes, David and Jeff crept silently out of the room. They closed the door as silent as they could. It had taken a while but Blaine was finally sleeping.
They walked downstairs and sat down on the sofa's. The television was playing in the background. “We should do something. You know Blaine will be unpleasant if he can't see Kurt a month.”
David groaned by the thought. “We should make a plan you know. Maybe we can arrange something?”
Everyone nodded their heads. They took Blaine's laptop and waited for it to start up. They groaned when the next screen came up. Enter a password please.
Wes just laughed and started to type. The welcome-screen appeared immediately. Jeff and David looked at him with open mouths. “What? Stop staring man, you're creeping me out.”
“You know Blaine's password?”
“It's not that hard to guess you know.”
“You have to share Wes. We share everything.”
David pouted but Wes shook his head. “Maybe another time. We're on a mission now.”
They went to the time sheet of their tour.
2 July – London (UK)
5 July – Madrid (Spain)
9 July – Paris (France)
12 July – Brussels (Belgium)
16 July – Amsterdam (Netherland)
19 July – Copenhagen (Denmark)
23 July – Berlin (Deutschland)
26 July – Turin (Italy)
30 July – Athena (Greece)
6 August – Kiev (Ukraine)
13 August – Helsinki (Finland)
16 August – Stockholm (Sweden)
20 August – Oslo (Norway)
27 August – Prague
“This doesn't help us anywhere. We have a week between Athena and Kiev and Oslo and Prague. It makes no sense if we send him back for such a short amount of time until we're back at our place plus our hotels are booked and ready.”
“Maybe we should ask Kurt when he is back. Maybe he has a free moment or maybe there is something he can arrange so he can join us again after Oslo?”
They all nodded and looked up the venues they were going to play. It was insane how many people we're going to come and watch them live. Pressure was building up with just a little more than three weeks before they left. They only hoped that Blaine and Kurt would figure this out before the tour.
It was turning evening and the new directions decided to go out and look around New York at night with Burt and Carole. Kurt wanted to go home though. He had excused himself and stopped a taxi.
Kurt walked into the living room to see Wes, Jeff and David watching television. “Hey boys.”
They all jumped as they didn't hear Kurt come inside. Kurt sat down next to them. “Where's Blaine?”
“Upstairs, asleep I guess. He was exhausted when we found him.”
Kurt just nodded. Wes decided to give it a try. “Kurt, Blaine told us that you got a chance to play on Broadway! We're happy for you but we also know it will kill Blaine if he have to go a month without you.”
Kurt was going to interrupt but Wes held up his hand. “We want to ask you something.”
Kurt just nodded and Jeff decided to take over. “We looked up our tour dates. Our first month is really busy. We have mostly 2 days in every city. The second month is different. We have sometimes a week in between. So we wanted to ask if you got your schedule for rehearsals.”
Kurt shook his head. “I get it this week. Why? It's not like Blaine can come over because I'll probably be as busy as you all will be.”
“That's not what we wanted to suggest.” The boys all looked at Kurt now.
“Would you think it would be possible to arrange your schedule a little? That way you might be able to join us the last week before we all come back. We know Blaine would want you to be there for the last show.” Kurt hesitated a little.
“I can always try. I don't know if they will like it though. I'll call the producer tomorrow and ask him.” They all nodded.
“Thank you Kurt. We better leave now.” Jeff, David and Wes gave Kurt a hug before they disappeared into the lift.
Blaine heard how the door slowly opened. He had slept for a few hours and was feeling much better. He turned around as he thought the boys were checking on him. He wasn't prepared to see Kurt standing there.
Kurt sat down on the bed and laid his head on Blaine's chest. Blaine couldn't help it and wrapped his arms around Kurt. He had missed this. It felt like coming home. “You were gone this morning.”
“I know. I just needed to get out. I really couldn't sleep. I went for a walk.” Kurt just nodded.
They lay in silence just enjoying the silence. “So what did you do today Kurt?”
“I went out with the new directions. They wanted to go sightseeing.”
“Sounds fun.”
“I missed you though.”
Blaine hugged him a little tighter. “I missed you too today.”
“Are you going to tell me why you are mad or disappointed or whatever makes us like this?”
Blaine sighed and went with his hand through his hair. “Just let me finish ok?”
Kurt nodded. “I just felt like you didn't trust me enough to share this with me. Like you didn't care enough about us to go with me to Europe because you knew that the tour would last two months. And I'm sorry I acted the way I did. I just was really disappointed because I was already making plans for us to do in Europe. I'm going to miss you insane. I wanted it to be really special as it would be our one year anniversary.”
Kurt looked up. “You remembered?”
“Of course I remembered.”
Kurt pressed his lips on Blaine's and kissed him slowly. “I talked with the boys a little earlier.”
“They didn't left? Are they still here?”
“No, they left when I walked in. We talked a little and they asked me something. I don't want you to get all excited as I didn't ask the producer yet but the boys wondered if I would be able to join you after your last concert. That way we would only have to miss each other three weeks and we would be able to end your tour together.”
Blaine looked up at Kurt and his eyes looked so much softer. “You would try that for me?”
“Of course I would dummy. I love you.”
“I love you too Kurt, so much.”
They spent the evening laying in each other's arms. Sweet kisses were shared between the sweet words until they fell asleep. Blaine was glad that Kurt would look to arrange it as he wanted Kurt to be with him as much as possible. He wanted this trip to be special, as the little box in the secret bag in his suitcase was an indication.
Burt and Carole arrived in the penthouse to find it dark. They went upstairs. Burt walked to the boys bedroom even though Carole signed him that it was a bad idea. Burt pushed the door open and smiled at the view in front of him. The boys were all wrapped in each other. Everything would definitely be ok.
