Home sweet home.
It was Tuesday when Blaine and Kurt arrived back in New York City. Their plane had landed at one thirty in the morning, so they were pretty much the only people in the airport. They grabbed all of their bags off the luggage carousel and headed out to the pick-up lanes where Blaine had made sure a taxi would be waiting to take them back to their fifth avenue apartment.
Kurt and Blaine had been very lucky. Once they got to New York, after graduating from McKinley, they both went to NYADA so they were lucky enough to get a dorm room together. After one year at NYADA and 2 Broadway shows later, Kurt decided that he wanted to switch to NYU to study fashion design. But he still lived in the off-campus dorm he and Blaine had when they both attended NYADA. Blaine stayed at NYADA for the full 4 years and starred in five Broadway shows during his time there. He graduated with his bachelors in music education. Kurt graduated after his three years at NYU with the company Marc Jacobs his after Mr. Jacobs died.
After college Blaine and Kurt had bought their current apartment with the money they both had saved from the Broadway shows they did, and using some of Kurt's work money.
They walked into the classy building and greeted the building attendant who always sat at the desk in the main lobby. They headed all the way up to the seventeenth floor and into their unit which was unit 2. Blaine dropped all the bags he had in his hands on the ground as soon as Kurt shut the door. He dragged himself into their bedroom and got undressed. He crawled into bed and called for Kurt.
"Kurt, baby come sleep with me! You're too tired to start unpacking tonight and I want to cuddle! You can be the little spoon," said Blaine hopefully.
Usually Kurt would have been stubborn and insisted on putting everything away before he could sleep but today he was just too tired to even care. He sighed and got undressed and crawled into bed with his husband.
"This is our first time sleeping in our bed as husbands," whispered Blaine.
"That it is, I love you Mr. Hummel-Anderson."
With that Blaine felt Kurt's breathe even out and he knew he was asleep. He settled in next to his husband and dreamt of the day he had proposed to Kurt.
~ Flashback ~
Blaine was so nervous, it was borderline sociopathic. He didn't know why he was nervous though. He had been planning this for months. But now that it was time to execute his perfectly detailed plan he was nervous.
It was a bright Thursday afternoon and Blaine had just arrived home. Kurt had to go to his lawyer's office to sign a few more paper for a new line he was releasing the following weekend. He knew that it was going to be today, he had to do it.
He got dressed in the nicest suit he owned, and gelled his hair down like he used to do in high school. He shaved so he was left with absolutely no facial hair. He looked clean and polished.
Next he called the flower store down the street to make sure his order would be all set and ready to go for later that night. He even called the restaurant to make sure he still had the reservations. Once he had called and made sure everything was in perfect place and ready for him to start, he lost his cool. He started to hyperventilate and he knew he needed help. So he called Rachel.
"Rachel! Rachel I can't do this! I cannot do this! Oh my god Rachel what if he says no! I couldn't live through that! He's my everything! What if he doesn't think that he wants to spend the rest of his life with me? Rachel! Please say something I can't do this! Oh my god! What if something happens and the plan de-rails! AH! Rachel I'm losing my mind!'
"Blaine! Blaine calm down please! He is going to say yes! I promise to you that he is going to say yes. I probably shouldn't tell you this but do you remember when we were in high school and you were off with your eye injury?"
"Well yeah, dumb ass Sebastian, but what does that have to do with the fact that my absolutely perfect and handsome and everything boyfriend might say no when I ask him to marry me and that, if he does it will definitely kill me?"
"Well, one night Mercedes, he and I were having a sleepover and that is when I told them that Finn had proposed to me. And Kurt really didn't like the idea, so I asked him what he would do if you had proposed to him then and there."
"And what did he say!" Blaine practically screamed.
"He said that he would say yes, because even then he knew that you guys were going to be together forever. "
"He- He really said – that?" stumbled Blaine who was choking back sobs.
"Of course he did silly! So you need man up and in the words of my darling husband 'grow a pair' and propose already because you guys have waited long enough and you deserve this."
"Thanks Rachel you always know exactly what to say."
"Yes, well I try. Goodbye honey and you call me as soon as he says yes!"
"Will do!" And with that he hung up the phone and all the nervousness flew out the window.
Just as Blaine calmed himself down enough Kurt walked in the door and butterflies filled Blaine's stomach.
"Hey baby, you look gorgeous! What's going on?" asked Kurt as he set down his paper and keys on the table. He walked over to where Blaine was sitting on the couch and crawled into his lap. He kissed Blaine square on the lips and then he leaned back, still in Blaine's eyes waiting for an answer.
"We are going out to dinner in Time Square, so would you like to go get changed? Are reservations are at six and it's four thirty now so we have to leave soon."
"Okay, just let me go and change." He grabbed Blaine's hand dragged him into their bedroom. He picked out a simple grey suit with a lilac shirt and dark purple tie. He looked stunning. Kurt's style had calmed down quite a bit since high school, so Blaine enjoyed every time they got to dress up.
Once Kurt finished fixing his hair they headed out for time square. It was a beautiful night. It was cool, not cold but not warm enough that you sweat. It was an all-around perfect night.
The evening started off with the boyfriends strolling through Central Park with light conversation and listening to a mariachi band that just happened to be playing while they were there. After that they headed to 'Il cibo è amore' Kurt's favourite Italian restaurant. They had a lovely dinner, with expensive champagne and beautiful service. Once they were done at the restaurant they headed back to Central park when a man walked up to Kurt and handed him a dozen roses. There was a little card that read: I love you forever, Blaine. Once Kurt was finished reading the card he looked up to find Blaine on his knee in front of him. Kurt gasped and tears welled up in his eyes because he knew what was coming and he was ecstatic he had been waiting so long for this and he was finally going to get to start forever with the only man who was worth spending forever with.
"Kurt Elizabeth Hummel, I love you more than I love myself. I always have and I always will. You are my everything, and I am nothing without you. There are some things I am sure of: One, when you look at me every little thing that has been stressing me out or making me mad all disappears because you bring out the best in me. Two, you are an amazing man, every time someone said something you didn't like about us you always ignore it and never let it get to you. Three, you are the strongest man I have ever met. You are 26 years old and you own Marc Freakin' Jacobs! And last but certainly not least you are gorgeous Kurt, and I often have troubles trying not to jump you when I see you Kurt, I promise to always want you, to always make you feel as special as you are, to always love you, and I honestly don't even think I could even think I could stop even if I had to and there is only one thing I want to change about you, and that is your last name. So Kurt, will you do me the indescribable honor of becoming my husband?"
"I- I-Yes! Of course! Oh my goodness Blaine, you don't know how long I've been waiting to hear that! Yes, you and I are getting married! I love you! "
"I love you to my beautiful fiancé."
~ End Flashback ~
The next morning Blaine woke up before Kurt which was unusual because Kurt was always up before Blaine. But he took at as exhaustion from the trip, so he got out of bed and took a shower. When he came back out Kurt was still asleep. But Blaine really didn't want to wake him up so he decided to go meet up with Finn for coffee and then bring some back for Kurt. He left a note on his pillow: My darling husband, I went out to get you coffee and have a quick chat with Finn, I will be back soon. Love always – Blaine.
So Blaine left and went to the coffee shop a few blocks down the street where Finn was waiting, they talked for almost an hour before Blaine insisted that he must go back to spend time with Kurt as they had both token two months off for the wedding, so they still had a little over a month to get settled as a married couple.
But when he got back he had expected Kurt to be puttering around and relaxing, but he came back to Kurt still and fast asleep in bed and the note not even touched. Blaine really thought he was just tired so he decided to let him sleep. He cleaned the entire apartment and unpacked all of their things, he left again to go and buy some groceries and get stuff for dinner.
When he got back it was five thirty and Kurt was still asleep, so he decided that he had slept enough. He went into their large master bedroom and kneeled beside Kurt.
"Kurt baby, it's five thirty, you slept all day can you wake up?"
"Blaine-I-can-t-sick-I'm going to barf!" Kurt shot up out of bed and headed straight to the en-suite bathroom. Blaine chased after him; he found Kurt huddled over the toilet vomiting. He swept his poor husbands bangs out of his face and rubbed soothing circles on his back.
"Blaine, go away you don't need to see me like this!" pleaded Kurt weakly.
"Kurt baby we've known each other for ten years and I did this for you even before we were dating, so nothing changes now that we're married. I love you! "
"I love you too; I think I have the flu Blaine."
"What are your symptoms honey?"
"Vomiting, headache, coughing, stuffy nose, body aches, and I would pretty much want to die if you weren't here."
"Yeah, definitely sounds like the flu to me, how about you change into clean pajamas because you are very sweaty, then I will make you chicken noodle soup, and get you some medicine, and we can cuddle up in bed and watch Disney movies until you fall asleep! Sound like a plan?"
"That sounds lovely, I love you, and I would kiss you but I don't want to get you sick too!"
Blaine smiled and placed a tiny chaste kiss to Kurt's lips then set of too work gathering all the things he would need to make his sick husband feel better. It only took him twenty minutes before he was climbing into bed with Kurt for a Disney movie marathon, both men clad in pajamas.
"Okay babe, I made chicken noodle soup for you, and here is some Nyquil so take that. And then I brought some rubbing menthol so turn over and I'll put some on your back." Once Blaine took his time massaging Kurt's back, he turned back over and ate the soup Blaine had brought him. Once he was finished Blaine popped in the Little Mermaid then spooned Kurt. Within no time Kurt was sound asleep in his lovers arms and their world was at peace, for now.
Comments
The proposal flashback was very well written and so sweet. I love the fact that Finn and Blaine are really good friends and that Blaine is so willing to take care of Kurt. This story is one of the best that I am reading right now.
