“I have you all to myself! Finally!” Rachel squealed and hugged Kurt close to her side as they walked into the dress shop, signing into their appointment. “Yes, I am yours today. Excited?” Kurt wondered, taking a seat on the plush couch in front of the dressing rooms, ready to judge. His friend nodded excitedly, her smile lighting up the room as she took a seat next to her friend. “Its finally coming together, you know?” She said quietly, biting her lip. “Its unreal.” Kurt chuckled, resting his head on Rachel's shoulder, smiling up at her. “Well I'm excited for you sweetie. You and Finn deserve each other. The wedding will be beautiful, I know it.” He told her, giving her hand an assuring squeeze, leaning up to kiss her cheek. “Kurt I think your pocket is vibrating.” Rachel mumbled, sitting up so he can check it.

Blaine lied in his bed at the station, staring at the ceiling. He got back from a call about an hour ago and has been wanting to talk to Kurt. He missed him. Its been three days since they've seen each other. “Hey, did I interrupt something?” Blaine asked cautiously, noticing a different tone in Kurt's voice. He smile widely, sighing in relief that he wasn't bothering him. “That sounds like fun.. For you at least. I'm not a huge fan of dress shopping.” Kurt's giggle made him bite his lip, gosh he loved it. “No I wouldn't mind taking you shopping babe. Just say the word.” Blaine promised, meaning it. He would do anything that Kurt wanted to do. “Its no problem, I'll talk to you later.. Maybe I can come over tonight?” He chuckled at how excited Kurt was. They are always at Blaine's apartment, he was kind of sick of it, he lives there almost everyday when he's not at the station. “Sounds great. I'll see you later beautiful, bye.”

Rachel stepped out of the dressing room just as Kurt walked into the shop. He gasped, catching sight of her in one of her choices. She was stunning. “Oh Rachel.” He mumbled, smiling widely as tears sprang up. She giggled and played with the bottom of the dress, giving a little a twirl. “Do you like it?” They laughed excitedly, Kurt walking closer to take a better look. “More like love it. How do you feel?” Kurt walked around her and inspected the dress, not finding a single thing wrong with it. Rachel bit her lip as she shrugged her shoulders, staring at herself in the mirror. “I feel like a bride. A very pretty bride.” She murmured adoringly, her smile spreading from ear to ear as she turned to Kurt, giggling. This was the dress. “I'm impressed Berry. The first try and you found your dress.” The two laughed, continuing to gush about the wedding day.

Kurt picked at his lunch, checking the time. He wish it went by faster. He wanted to be with Blaine. “So how's the boyfriend?” Rachel asked with a smirk, leaning on the table in interest. Kurt rolled his eyes, giving her a passive shrug. “I wouldn't know because I don't have a boyfriend.” She pulled her eyebrows together in confusion, waiting for her friend to elaborate. “We aren't boyfriends. Not officially. We're just.. casually seeing each other and acting coupley.” He explained nonchalantly, trying to act like it doesn't bother him. In reality it does. A lot. “You've been 'together' for almost three weeks. You've dry humped. How are you two not boyfriends?” Kurt face palmed, letting out a long sigh. He could not believe she said that out loud. They were in public. “Just because we did that does not make us officially dating Rachel, goodness.” She giggled, taking a sip of her drink, batting her eyelashes innocently like she did nothing wrong. “I'll just have to talk with him, I don't know. He said he wanted to take this slow.” Kurt pointed out, trying to find positives instead of dwelling. He needs to give him time, especially after Sebastian saying Blaine was scared.

Blaine took Kurt into his arms as the door opened, the both of them laughing. “Hi, I missed you, how have you been?” Kurt asked, his fingers playing with the hair on the nape of Blaine's neck. “I've been busy and missing you too.” Blaine answered, pecking his lips a few times, giving him one more tight hug. It was insane that just the sight of Kurt made him so happy. “Hey guys.. want to go out with us tonight?” Rachel came out of her room in a nice dress, ready to hit the clubs. “Sebastian and Liam will be there and Finn should be here soon.” She added with a wide smile, hoping it will be a triple date of sorts. Blaine looked to Kurt and gave him a shrug, smiling widely. “I don't mind if you want to go.” He said softly, his grip loosening from around his waist. Kurt bit his lip, trying to hide his huge, excited smile. “We can go for a few hours and then come back here. That's okay right?” He wondered, a hopeful glint in his eyes as he looked to Blaine. “That's okay.” Kurt giggled and ran to his room to change into more suitable clubbing clothes.

Rachel bit her lip and scanned Blaine as she took a seat on a stool by the breakfast bar. “So are you happy?” She asked nonchalantly, knowing that she isn't particularly close with Blaine. He nodded, giving her a small smile. “I am. Work sucks every once and a while, but seeing Kurt makes it better, makes me feel normal again.” He explained honestly. If he wanted to be with Kurt officially he needed to get along with his friends. Rachel was one of the most important ones besides his brother. “That's good, I'm glad. Its good he has a boyfriend to lean on, before it was always me and his other friends, he could use someone else sometimes.” Blaine froze, his eyes widened slightly as he looked down at the floor. “Rachel, I'm not his boyfriend. We're just seeing each other, dating, casually, that's all.” He mumbled, not wanting to go too much in depth. “I'm sorry. He told me that today. My mistake.” Rachel apologized, sounding a little panicked. She didn't mean to freak him out, he was almost pale. Blaine shook his head, clearing his throat. “I just need some time, that's all. He understands, we've talked about it.”

“What do you want to drink?” Blaine asked close to Kurt's ear, his arm resting around his waist as they stood by the bar, looking for a table to grab. “Cosmo, please and thank you.” Kurt kissed him on the cheek before Rachel and Liam dragged him away to a booth in the back, leaving Blaine with Sebastian and Finn. “So you're the guy Kurt's dating?” He looked up with a nervous smile, giving a nod. “Um, yeah, I'm Blaine.” Finn gave his big goofy smile and nodded approvingly, patting the smaller guy on the shoulder. “You're really short, you know that?” The three guys laughed together as they leaned against the bar, waiting for their order. “I think you're just really tall.” Blaine answered with a smirk. Finn wasn't that bad or as scary as he imagined.

Kurt stood and grabbed Blaine's hand, trying to pull him up. “Come dance with me!” He yelled, yanking and tugging for him to stand. “Please.” He slurred, biting his lip. Blaine chuckled and got up, pulling Kurt close to his side as he lead him to the dance floor. Kurt wrapped his arms around Blaine's neck, grinding his hips and resting his head on his shoulder. “You're amazing!” He yelled with a giggle, his movement sloppy. He hasn't felt this loose in a long time. Blaine laughed loudly and hugged Kurt closer to him, pressing a kiss below his ear. “You're drunk.” Kurt nodded with exaggeration, pressing his lips to Blaine's, hands tangling in his curls. Before things could progress any further in public Blaine pulled away, pressing his forehead to Kurt's. “I'm taking you home, okay? Its late, you need to rest, you're really drunk.” He said, leading him off the floor and back to the table to collect their jackets. “Leaving?” Rachel asked, sounding a little upset and a lot more sober than Kurt. Blaine nodded and leaned forward, giving her half a hug and a kiss on the cheek. “He needs to get home before he gets any worse.” She giggled and gave an understanding smile, waving them off.

The door to the apartment hit the wall loudly as Kurt tried to step in. “Bl-Blaine stop, I can do it!” Kurt stumbled slightly as he tried to walk to his bedroom, holding onto the couch for a minute. Blaine crossed his arms with an amused smile, slightly tipsy but still coherent with good judgment. “You sure babe?” With a sigh Kurt stuck his arm out, Blaine's cue to take it and lead him to the room. “I need you're help.” After the pout he got, Blaine walked over with a sad smile and carefully carried Kurt into the bedroom bridal style, lying him down on the bed. “Thank you.” Kurt mumbled, leaning up to peck Blaine on the lips. They shared a slow, gentle kiss, the two of them grinning. “Why do you call me babe if we aren't boyfriends?” Kurt wondered, playing with Blaine's hair as he looked up at him. Without worrying about getting an answer he leaned up and kissed Blaine again, smiling widely.“I love kissing you.” Kurt whispered like it was a secret, Blaine laughing at how child like he was acting, getting over the shock of the question he was asked. Out of nowhere arms were wrapped around him, pulling him down onto the bed, Kurt erupting in a giggle fit. “I got you!” He yelled, peppering kisses all over Blaine's face, holding him close. “Kurt come on, bed. I'm going to get you some water and possibly a bucket.” Blaine stood up carefully, turning to leave the room. “I know you're scared, but don't leave me.. Please.” Kurt said quietly, making Blaine stop at the door. “I'll be right back Kurt. I'm not going anywhere. Promise.”

Blaine groaned and reached his arm out, not feeling anything next to him. “Kurt?” He called out, sitting up, looking around the room. He heard the toilet flush and sighed, getting out of the bed to go check on him. Kurt was sat on the floor, hanging over the side of the toilet, coughing. “I'm kind of hungover. Sorry.” Blaine shook his head, leaning down and brushing Kurt's hair back, giving him a shrug. “Don't apologize, it happens to the best of us.” He obviously knew from experience. After the incident with 'he who shall not be named' he went out with Sebastian and Liam, drinking himself into oblivion, almost going home with some other guy. “Did I say anything stupid that I might regret?” Kurt asked, resting his cheek on his arm so he could look at Blaine, seeing the smile that graced his handsome face. “Unless you don't love kissing me then no, nothing you said was stupid.” They both laughed quietly, Blaine grabbing Kurt's hand, lacing their fingers together. “I really care about you.” He whispered, breaking the comfortable silence between them. Kurt nodded in agreement, picking his head up to rest on Blaine's shoulder. “Don't ever let me get this drunk again. I'm not normally like this.” Blaine gave him a small smile and pressed a kiss to the top of his head, rubbing his arm soothingly.
