Ill update soon! x
Blaines phone laid on his chest and he watched as it went up and down as he inhaled and exhaled.
He had to get Kurt to come to his show, there had to be a way.
"Blaine get your ass out here," he heard Steve yell he internally groaned. He still sounded pissed; it was possible that Steve was going to hold what he did over his head for the rest of his career.
He rolled out of his bunk and held onto the bed as he pulled himself into the standing position.
He hadnt even noticed that the bus had stopped and when he walked into the main part of the bus he noticed that Jessica had already left.
"We here?" He asked rubbing his eyes gently trying to wipe away his tired eyes.
"Yeah, its getting late so go to straight into the hotel and dont go anywhere," he mumbled.
He nodded. "What am I doing tomorrow morning?" He asked grabbing his overnight bag that had been left on the couch. He assumed that everything inside of it had been cleaned as there was a fresh scent oosing from it.
"Nothing, and thats what youre going to do, nothing," Steve said crossing his arms like he was the most important person in the world.
"Steve, Im sorry I didnt come back when you asked but Im a 23-year-old man, I feel so stuck and I just want to be able to do what I want with my free time," he said honestly.
"You should have thought of that before you wanted fame Blaine, because you cant have both," Steve said snarkily
He narrowed his eyes.
"Please can I go out tomorrow? What if I rent a vehicle, people wont be able to touch me or whatever youre afraid of," he said moving a small step towards Steve.
"No Blaine, you have a job to do, a job that pays you a lot of money and you cant just go and do what you want. You have a responsibility and if you dont show up for an event or get hurt thats on my head," Steve replied angrily.
"I hide my whole life for this job, I love my job and my fans, I wouldnt do anything to hurt them or myself! All I want is to get a vehicle and drive around for a bit, its not going to affect anything. I wont be late for the show I promise," he begged.
"You hide for a reason, you know that, and I dont know Ill think about it," Steve said running his hands though his dark thick hair looking frustrated.
He smiled, at least that was progress. Steve moved out of the way and allowed him to walk past and off of the bus. The cool air hit him and made him notice how stuffy it had been on the bus.
He looked around; he was in yet another hotel parking lot. He tossed his bag over his should and walked towards the entrance.
"Blaine!" Someone shrieked and he turned watching as a couple of young girls rushed towards him.
"Hey," he smiled.
"I love you so much!" One girl said.
"Love you too," he said moving to give the girl a small hug, she had long brown hard and pretty blue eyes. They sparkled, reminding him of how Kurts had done.
His smile widened at the thought.
"Can I have a picture," the blond headed friend said giggling.
He nodded before leaning in with both girls sporting a big smile.
"Thank you so much!" The brown headed girls shrieked practically bouncing up and down.
"No problem," he smiled as both the girls turned and walked away giggling at the picture that they had taken.
He sighed before turning carrying on towards the hotel. Meeting fans was one of his favourite parts of his job other than the music.
Once he entered the hotel and was led to him room which was just a beautiful as that one hed had the day before.
He changed clothes and had a much needed shower before climbing in to the double bed. He checked his phone again finding no texts before putting it on the small oak bed side table.
He closed his eyes, he was exhausted. He fell to sleep in the matter of seconds and didnt hear his rooms door open.
...
Kurt opened his eyes and groaned, he wished that he could just call in sick and go to Blaines gig.
It had made it hard to sleep knowing that he had turned down the chance to see his idol again but he knew this was for the best.
He pushed the duvet cover off of himself and dragged himself out of bed.
He knew that work was going to be a nightmare today; he could feel it in the air. He could hear the insults already.
...
Blaine groaned happily, he felt arms holding him around his waist.
"Kurt," he whispered with a smile on his lips.
His eyes widened, reality hitting him with full force. He threw himself out of the bed and onto the floor turning to see who he had been in bed with.
"Jessica! What the hell are you doing?" he yelled lying back on the floor trying to get his breath back. He peered up again looking for an answer but Jessica just stared at him smiling.
"Youre cute when you sleep, did you know that?" She smirked.
He jumped to his feet. "You cant do this!" He yelled his arms open wide to try to emphasise his point.
"Yes I can, if people find out that were sleeping in different rooms then theyll suspect something," she shrugged and a inch of the cover falling down on her shoulder at the movement.
His eyes widened again when he saw the shoulder was bare.
"Please tell me youre not…" he started not even wanting to finish the sentence; it made him feel sick at the thought.
"Oh relax Blaine," she replied throwing the cover of off herself revealing that she was wearing her bra and knickers, but her bra strap had fallen down.
He closed his eyes with relief and looked around for his bag, he walked up to and grabbed it before storming towards the bathroom, there was no way that he was getting dressed in front of her.
Once he was dressed he walked back into the room dumping his bag on the floor, he looked to Jessica who was still sitting on the bed with no clothes.
"I going out, put some clothes on," he said before turning and walking towards the door.
"Just dont get yourself in trouble again Blaine," she said smartly and he didnt even turn back to look at her before he was out of the door.
When he got into the corridor he saw Steve standing down the far end of it, staring intently at his phone.
"Steve," he yelled jogging towards him. Steve looked up before giving him a small smile.
"What do you need Blaine?" He asked and he shoved his hands in his pockets.
"Did you make up your mind? Can I go out?" He asked.
Steve sighed. "You can go out but if youre not back before sound check then I swear to go Blaine you will wish you never signed with me," he threatened but he didnt really here that part, he was just so excited that he was going to be allowed to wander.
"Can I go on my own?" He asked earning a glare.
"Whatever, just be back in four hours," Steve said looking at his watch.
He nodded. "I promise," he smiled.
He turned and walked towards the lift, he was on the seventh floor this time and he didnt want to waste time going down the stairs.
Once the lift reached the bottom floor he walked quickly towards the door pulling the brown hood of the hoodie he was wearing over his head.
The good thing about being in Westerville was that he knew where everything was, he turned right shoving his hands into the tiny pockets of his black skinny jeans. He knew where he could easily get the vehicle that he wanted.
It was only a couple blocks away and when he got there he pushed open the door with a smile.
"Hey," he said and the person at the front desk turned and a smile formed on his face.
"Blaine!" the boys said running out from the desk pulling him into a hug.
"How you doing Nick?" He smiled at his old friend.
"Im doing ok thank you, I dont really need to ask you that do I," Nick chuckled giving him a slap on the arm.
His smile turned fake but at least it stayed he didnt want to dump all of his troubles on him.
"What are you doing here?" Nick continued and he looked around.
"Can I get my usual?" He said referring to the vehicle that all of The Warblers used to go traveling on.
Nick nodded. "Of course, for how long?"
"Just until tomorrow," he replied.
"You can have it until then free of charge," Nick smiled.
"Nick you dont have to that, you could get in trouble," he said as Nick walked back to the other side of the counter.
"No I cant, I own this place now," Nick said and he smiled.
"Thats great! Nick Im so happy for you," he said though he could see the sad look of distant dreams that had been crushed. Nick like him had wanted to be a singer but it didnt work out as well.
"Thanks, do you have your driving licence on you?" He asked and he nodded pulling out his wallet, pulling it out before handing it to him.
Nick looked at it and laughed. "You look so young in this picture," Nick commented before handing it back.
"Yeah, it was taken a long time ago, I think I was still in The Warblers then," he smiled at the memory.
Nick smiled. "Come on Ill take you to it," Nick said before coming back out from behind the desk, leading him through the different vehicles that were placed around the room.
"Here she is," Nick said and he smiled.
"Could I get two helmets?" He said moving towards the 250cc black naked motorcycle before straddling it.
"Yeah of course," Nick said before disappearing into the back of the store. He came back a few minutes later with two plain black helmets.
"Thank you," he said getting off the bike again and taking them. He lifted up the seat revealing a small compartment for a helmet and shoved one in.
"Just sign this and youre good to go," Nick said and he did what he was told before wheeling the bike to the front of the store.
"Thanks Nick," he said shoving the helmet onto his head.
"See you tomorrow?" Nick said as a question. He nodded. "Ill see you tomorrow," he replied before starting the bike.
He drove onto the road and towards a junction looking at the road signs. He looked to the one that said Ohio and followed it, he was going to make sure that Kurt was at his show.
