Their routine continued. Blaine tries to make the marriage work while Kurt looks like he’s going to give up on them anytime.
It’s been going on for 6 months, and Blaine was suspecting that Kurt might be having an affair that’s why it looks like he doesn’t care for their marriage anymore.

Kurt’s POV

I am with Brian tonight, we met thrice a week and if Blaine is out of town I stayed in his flat.
“Bri, no hickey! Blaine will notice it”
“Hmm. But I had made one already besides he’ll not see this, you two hadn’t been intimate for months.”
“Bri, I’m serious.” I told him as I think of some ways to cover this mark.
“Okay, that will be the last one I promise” He said as he gave me a chaste kiss on the lips.
Then I went to the bathroom to fix myself. Upon returning in the living room I saw him deep in thought.
“What are you thinking?” I said as I look at him
“Why, can’t you leave him already Kurt?”
“Really? Are we going over this again?” I replied with an annoyed tone.
“I just want to know, you’re not happy with him anymore. What’s the point in staying in that miserable marriage?”
“I can’t leave Blaine he’s still my husband.”
“And what about me? Who I am to you” He asked as he stand up I can recognize the anger in his voice. “What? Am I just a substitute to what Blaine can’t give you?” He continued.
“Bri,” I called him trying to make him calm down
“Just tell me why you can’t leave him. Do you still love him?”
“He’s my husband”
“That’s not the answer I am expecting Kurt”
“Okay, Fine you want to hear the truth? I still love Blaine despite of all what is happening to us. I can’t just leave him like that. He’s not just my husband he’s my best friend too.”

Brian’s POV

I was just stunned to what Kurt had said; It looks like were not going anywhere in this relationship. In the months that were together I expect him to file a divorce but he didn’t. I don’t want set up like this. That Kurt will come to me then after all that we did he will still be coming home to him. I want to be the best man for him but sadly Blaine is still in that position. He still loves him despite of what is happening to them and I can’t compete with that. Kurt will never learn to love me if he’s still reserve for him.
Then I heard Kurt sigh, this argument is over I didn’t said anything after his revelation.
“I have to go” Kurt said as he picked his stuff and leave my flat.
All I can hear is the silence of my flat and this brought me to the idea that someday Kurt will leave me if things between him and his husband are fine again.

Blaine’s POV

As usual, my husband cancelled dinner again. I got used to this but I never stop making dinner for him even I know in the back of my head that he’s not coming.
I look at the clock and it displays 10:30 pm, too early for Kurt to go home.
But then I heard the front door opening to my surprise he is here.
“You’re early.” I told him as I glance at him.
“Yeah,” He answered simply as he took his shoes of.
I stared at him, and then I notice a dark mark on his neck as he pulled his scarf off. That looks like a hickey. And I didn’t give that because we never made love anymore. I decided not to confront him about that knowing it will just start a misunderstanding between us.
“I’m going to bed” He told me and I notice a changed in his voice like he’s caring about me. “Are you not coming?” He continued as he began to walk upstairs.
“I am.”
Well this is new, he’s different tonight. I wonder what happened. But at least he still cared about me even just this time.
I turned the lights off in the kitchen and living room before joining him to our room.

Kurt’s POV

Brian and I had just fight about me divorcing my husband again. Then I burst out and told him the truth I am afraid of losing Blaine. I know I am selfish I’m having an affair but I still want to keep my husband. It’s like I am just punishing him for all that the pain he caused me when he was being an ass. Yes, I’m still angry at him but I still love him. I know I act like I don’t care about him but deep down I do.
Brian needs reassurance that’s the reason why he keeps bugging me to file a divorce. He wants a future with me and I am not sure if I can give it to him.
After the argument I went home and find Blaine sitting in the couch reading a magazine with his glasses on. I saw something beyond what he’s doing in front of me. This is the husband I’ve been missing for years. He’s not the workaholic man that I knew because if he is he’ll not be here waiting for me to come home. Every night I find him asleep on the couch because he waits for me. I told him that it’s not necessary but he insists. And I remember one night when he whispered I love you before dozing off to sleep. He didn’t force me to make love with him because for months we haven’t done that.
He seemed surprise when I asked him about him coming to bed tonight. I usually left him in the couch and it’s his own decision if he’s going to bed or not.
And I just realized that I didn’t consider my husband’s feeling if he found out what’s going on with me. This will break us, I am aware of that but in the end I chose to cheat on him.

After taking a cold shower and finishing my moisturizing routine I found Blaine on the bed staring in an empty space. He was wearing a black boxers and a white t-shirt. We didn’t say anything to break the silence. I slid beside him and he turns the lights off.
Then again that night he whispered I love you.
