"Honey I'm home!" The drawling voice is followed by a loud slam as the door closes and Kurt hears footsteps approach their "bedroom". It's really just a small space with a bed, a desk, and a dresser that's enclosed by a privacy partition. In their excitement to find an affordable place in the city the three of them forgot to really consider the practicality of living without defined rooms.

Blaine pushes past the partition and kisses Kurt on the head with a loud "mwah."

"Blaine," Kurt grumbles, "I'm working."

"Oh come on," Blaine says, spinning the chair Kurt's in so he's face him. Kurt shouts in surprise at the movement and quickly fixes his boyfriend with an angry glare as he turns back to his sketches. "Kurt, it's break now! Enough work."

"It may be break for you but you know I still have work." After not getting in NYADA, Kurt searched for alternative options to no avail. Things were uncertain for a while but when it came time for Rachel and Blaine to leave to go to school, Kurt went with them. Once in New York he began searching again and he fell into something amazing. He got an internship at and he honestly couldn't be happier.

"And I also know that Isabelle is leaving for Paris tomorrow and you're getting three weeks off," Blaine counters. "Now come on," Blaine whispers in his hear causing Kurt to shiver, "we finally have to apartment to ourselves and we have some um, catching up to do."

Kurt exhales shakily and debates it for about two seconds. Rachel and Blaine's schedules are very similar causing them to be home at almost all the same times. This had made it increasing difficult to get alone time, as Blaine refuses to let Kurt tell her she needs to give them some, so they take advantage when they can.

Spinning away from the desk, Kurt jumps up to join Blaine on the bed and melts into the familiar smell and taste of him. Before things get too heated, though, they hear the tell-tale sign of a key jiggling in the lock. Kurt rolls off Blaine and lets out a frustrated sigh. Blaine gives him a hopeless shrug but Kurt can tell he's a little miffed as the exit into the main room to greet Rachel.

"Hmm was I interrupting something?" Rachel questions with raised eyebrows as she takes in their slightly rumpled appearance.

Blaine opens his mouth, probably to deny everything, so Kurt cuts him off. "Actually, yes."

Rachel lets out a tinkling laugh and says, "You're so bitchty when you need to get laid. But don't worry, I'm going out tonight."

Kurt notices the way Rachel bites her lip to try and hide the smile starting to form and that's new. "Going out tonight? With somebody special?"

"I hope so," Rachel admits and Kurt lights up. She and Finn had a bad breakup, several of them actually, but he thinks it's for good this time. He's glad to see her at least attempting to move on.

"Ooh is he cute? What's his name?" Blaine questions. His excitement is so adorable that Kurt scrunches up his nose and wraps his arm around his waist to pull him closer.

"Gorgeous and Brody," Rachel says with a smile, "but no more questions until after tonight! I don't even know him that well yet."

"Alright, well if he gives you any trouble just tell us and we've got your back." Blaine's tone is so serious that Kurt doesn't have the heart to tell him that they're probably the least intimidating people in the whole of New York.

Rachel rushes off to get ready for her date leaving Kurt and Blaine alone once again.

"You excited to go home next week?" Blaine asks.

"Yes," Kurt says nodding vigorously, "I miss them all so badly."

"Me too," Blaine responds as he leans over to give him a quick kiss on the nose. "You know, it's kind of nice not having to decide where to go over holidays. Or worry about meeting my boyfriend's parents."

"Agreed," Kurt responds, catching Blaine lips in a short kiss that his him chasing his mouth as he pulls away. "Eager are we?" Kurt teases.

"Oh be quiet," Blaine mumbles before grabbing the back of Kurt's head and sufficiently shutting him up.
