Kurt thought that something is about to burst from his chest when the door opened in front of him.
"Come in, my room is up the stairs"
The smile that was smeared on Blaine's face when Kurt entered his apartment, became fixated in Kurt's his head alongside with the sweet smell of his hair.
While Climbing up the stairs to the third floor, Kurt attempted to walk slowly and keep a gap between them, at least until he'll manage to stop trembling.
'What's going on with me?' he wondered 'no, no backing from this plan no matter how sexy I think he is' "I can do this" he accidently said out loud and then regretted.
"Do what?" Blaine inquired.
"Oh no…I started solving the equation at home and, never mind" he sighed.
They reached his attic room. Blaine opened the door and offered Kurt to enter.
"Well, It's your first time in my room so the most important rule here is - feel at home" he blinked "you can take off your shoes, and your school bag if you like" Kurt refused nicely "no, I'm fine with my shoes on"
"As you wish, but I was planning that we study on my bed"
"Fine" he hissed and took off his shoes.
"Wow, these black trousers are totally awesome"
"Thank you" Kurt couldn't help blushing.
"Let's just finish this fast. I wanna show you a few things afterwards"
"O.K" he started placing his books on the bed "I just need to find my pencil sharpener" Kurt browsed his schoolbag.
"It doesn't matter. I'll give you one of my pencils" said Blaine impatiently.
"Are your parents here?" Kurt tried to gain information.
"Um…no. Why?"
"Just wondering" he answered innocently and smiled.
"Actually they're off for the weekend, so I'm considering throwing a party" Blaine mumbled.
"Oh" Kurt wasn't sure where is that leading him.
"But a calmed weekend also seems like a great idea, I feel so exhausted lately" he admitted.
"Why?" Kurt inquired.
"No, it really doesn't matter…you know, just need to get some silly things off my mind" he continued "But now we're gonna get concentrated"
"Well, what do you say we start with geometry?" Kurt suggested reluctantly.
"Sure. Each of us will solve separately, and then we'll compare to see if our answers match"
After three exercises Kurt heartbeat started to chill, feeling again that he can breathe freely next to Blaine, and gaze at his sexy concentrated look once in a while, when he's not noticing.
Blaine felt a weird itch, as if he is been stared at. He didn't want to stare back and scare the confused guy so he nonchalantly kept working.
Kurt was having a hard time understanding this situation. Until two weeks ago he used to feel fine near Blaine: no cramps in his stomach, no strained muscles... What happened that suddenly he cannot stand more than a minute next to him without acting like an idiot?
'Blaine knows so much and I know nothing, and I'm pretty sure he's reading my thoughts right now' he flipped a page in the book and started writing down the number of the new exercise. He drew a new triangle while focusing on feeling less uncomfortable 'It won't matter anymore if I know nothing, because I'm gonna make things happen'
He gazed again at Blaine: He was at the same position, tilting his head down, holding the pencil close to his mouth and thinking.
Kurt acted up as if he's rechecking his answers when a clear final sentence appeared on the blackboard of his mind "DO IT NOW!"
With only his right hand moving, Kurt pulled his ipod from his bag and selected the Karaoke. He placed the ipod on Blaine's bed, stood straight and started singing while his voice is a bit shaking:
"Live in my house, I'll be your shelter, just pay me back with one thousand kisses. Be my lover and I'll cover you" Blaine seemed surprised in a positive way, he didn't say a word but Kurt could see that he is impressed.
Kurt gained confidence and continued while adding some simple dancing moves "Open your door, I'll be your tenant. Don't got much baggage to lay at your feet, but sweet kisses I've got to spare. I'll be there and I'll cover you" he pointed at Blaine and feeling of success raged through him.
Blaine finally reacted to him in the chorus and they both sang together "I think they meant it when they said you can't buy love, now I know you can rent it a new lease you are my love, on life be my life"
Blaine reached the high notes so easily that Kurt started thinking 'now you've turned me on even more' but did his best to stay focused so he won't lose control over his voice.
Kurt prepared himself to the peak of the song and gathered courage " Just slip me on, I'll be your blanket. Wherever whatever, I'll be your coat. You'll be my king, and I'll be your castle"
"You'll be my queen and I'll be your moat" Blaine answered with a full powerful chest voice. Both of them moved their hands like they're dancing on the stage in Broadway, setting free all their boundaries…
Kurt jumped on Blaine's bed and raised his hands in the air "Oh, lover I'll cover you"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah" they sang together, opening their throats to reach the high notes and gazing at each other's eyes.
"Oh, lover I'll cover you" They finished the song together in perfect accordance, each one at his pitch.
Kurt saw the amusement reflecting from Blaine's eyes, and finally felt satisfied.
He jumped on Blaine and hugged him as his hands ran down Blaine's back, groping his fur sweater. The thoughts that lingered in Kurt head rose up "To kiss him now? Too early? Or maybe too late?"
To his dismay, Kurt didn't have the time to enjoy the feeling of Blaine's body, as Blaine drew him away.
"Kurt, you're awesome" he glanced at him "you're full of enthusiasm and talent and that goes around perfectly with your sweet tenderness" he sighed "You know, it feels really good to know that I've found a friend that can balance me between being serious and having fun" Blaine's eyes glittered with satisfaction.
"Are you kidding me? You're the one who taught me all of that, you deserve to be praised" Kurt explained with a grateful tone.
"Kurt, we're very close friends, why did you push me away when I tried to help you?"
"What? When did that happened?" Kurt was too concentrated on other things to be able to remember.
"Two weeks ago? When we almost had some kind of 'The Talk'? I didn't mean to brag I did it because I care about you, and you made me leave a little worried"
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine" Kurt started closing his heart again, wrapping up against what Blaine might say.
"I'm just gonna say that it's not a normal case for a guy your age not to know anything, so…please be responsible and be careful" Blaine explained with simplicity.
"Blaine, could you please stop? You're not my dad! I've exposed my lack of experience to you because I trusted that you'd understand"
Kurt was hurt, again rose inside him the old feeling that he's just a little boy that doesn't know the true meaning of having an intimate relationship. 'It doesn't matter any way' he thought.
"Right now Blaine, I'm looking for true love, and it might sound naïve to you but I'll prove you that you're wrong and that relationship doesn't always have to involve sex as their main interest" Kurt's eyes burned with frustration.
"Kurt, please come down. I've…I've had good intentions" Blaine stuttered.
"Well we both know I have feelings for you" he fired the words at him "there wasn't any need for me to hide it today. You saw it all right through me!" Kurt seemed more panicked than ever.
Blaine was shocked from Kurt's behavior 'What am I missing here?' he tried to figure out.
"Kurt whatever you're going through, I'm here to understand you" Blaine attempted to pull some more information from him.
"I don't want your understanding and support, don't you get it?" he yelled at him.
"I'm not the cute little gay guy you thought I was when you first met me, and I don't even intend to prove you that I am more experienced than you. You'll see for yourself"
"Wait, didn't we just agree that we're good friends that understand each other and knows how to help one another in crisis?" Blaine raised his voice.
"Well I thought you were, but it turned out to be a mistake. You can't change the way that I want to see the world"
He took a deep breath, and said a bit unsure "I think I should leave"
