Lucerne
The hour drive to Lucerne was just as quick at the drive from Dalton to Lima. One major difference was the scenery. When there weren’t hills and valleys, there were mountains in its place. The view was unbelievable. All of the white capped mountains in the distance made Blaine feel refreshed and full of life. The beauty was so clean and pure. Kurt looked so sweet sleeping in that seat next to him. He must have been exhausted from the nightmares and the stress of the last few nights.
“Ugh. Blaine.” Kurt awoke with a sound of disgust.
Blaine laughed. “What’s wrong, Kurt?” Kurt’s forehead was creased with stress. Blaine touched his forehead with his fingers brushing at the creases. “Don’t do that. You’ll get wrinkles.”
“You’ve totally ruined my pants Blaine.” Kurt’s nose crinkled as he squirmed in his seat. “I feel like I peed my pants.”
“Huh?” Blaine really wasn’t getting it.
“You know. You are leaking out everywhere.” Blaine gasped as he now understood what Kurt was complaining about.
“I’m sorry, Baby.” Blaine smiled because the thought that he still lingered with Kurt after all this time was kind of exhilarating to him, even if it meant that Kurt was a little uncomfortable. "You still love me right? I love you? A Lot.” He hoped Kurt would accept this as a type of apology for his come soiling his designer underwear and pants.
“You know I do.” Kurt smiled while his nose remained crinkled. “Okay, so I’m not totally grossed out by it and it is kind of nice that I have a bit of a reminder of you. But, I think I am appalled that I am actually a little turned on by it too. Thinking about part of you still lingering there.” Kurt blushed a deep red, completely embarrassed by even thinking this, let alone saying it.
“God, Kurt. How could I love you more every day? It’s not even possible for us to be this right together.” Deep down inside thanking God that Kurt came into his life like a miracle.
“But, I am glad we are. Sometimes I think this is all a dream and that it won’t last because we are so young. Then every day I wake up and you are here. You are here and it’s real and it’s wonderful.” Kurt looked down in embarrassment.
“Don’t ever look away from me. You don’t need to be embarrassed because I feel the same way. We will work through all the feelings we have together. I want us. I want you. I want forever.” Blaine put his hand on Kurt’s thigh resting it comfortably. “We are just about there. The GPS says 15 minutes. You should probably call Mr. Shue and Finn.”
The group was already settled into their hotel rooms and were getting ready to gather to go to dinner. They had a river cruise booked for the group. “Mr. Shue, we are about 15 minutes out. Are we going to miss dinner?”
“Kurt, we are just gathering now, so if you get here in the next 30 minutes, you should be okay. We have your room key and your suitcases are already in there complements of Wes and Finn.”
“Okay. We should see you in about 15, but we still have to change Mr. Shue.” There was no way that Kurt could go the whole night with come filled underpants.
“We’ll meet you in the lobby.”
Blaine and Kurt pulled up to the hotel to find much of the group outside. Finn was shocked when he saw the car. “Dude, this gets better and better.” Finn held out his fist to Blaine. Kurt was trying to get out very carefully without showing the discomfort of his pants. “Blaine. You are totally my hero. What is this car anyway?”
“It’s a Maserati. It is totally awesome.”
“Shit. Aren’t they expensive?” Finn was mesmerized by the car.
“This one only costs $150,000. It’s definitely regal and not suitable for soiling. This must be handled with kid gloves Finn.” Blaine glanced at Kurt knowing that he was hearing everything. Kurt turned away from Blaine’s look thinking I guess fucking in the front seat and leaking come all over the place is not considered soiling.
Mr. Shue showed up and handed the keys to Kurt. “If I didn’t know better, I might almost think you guys planned it Blaine. Blaine walked over the valet and asked them to park it.”
Blaine smiled his smug smile that Kurt absolutely loved. “Mr. Shue. I really didn’t plan this. Kurt and I were shopping. You know how Kurt gets when he is shopping.” Blaine continued on. “Come on, Finn, Rachel help me out.”
“Yeah Mr. Shue. It’s like Kurt is in an alternate universe when he is shopping.” Finn was not lying when he came to Kurt’s defense. “What were you guys buying?”
Blaine laughed. “Do you really want to know?”
“Blaine. Let’s go to our room.” Kurt was insistent that Finn not know so there was nothing to make fun of him.
“Spit it out, Kurt!” Finn was making his way to Kurt.
“Finn. No tackling or tickling.” Kurt started to run away.
“We were buying cowbells and ornaments!” Blaine grinned. He hoped Kurt would attempt to take refuge with him.
“Cowbells and ornaments? Well… That’s interesting. Kinda gay…uh.. you know what I mean. Uhh.. sorry Kurt. Sorry Blaine.”
Blaine knew Finn felt bad about saying that. “Totally cool Finn. I know you love me!” He smirked at the thought of what was now going through Finn’s head.
“Gross. You are my brother’s boyfriend.. or fianc�e’. Whatever you guys are.”
Blaine grabbed Kurt and kissed him on the cheek. He whispered. “I love you.”
“Blaine. I am going to go up and change.” Kurt gave Blaine a looking, raising his eyebrows gesturing Blaine to come with him.
The valet driver got into the car and away it went. “I will need to call the limo service regarding the car. Kurt is right. We need to go up and change if we are going to walk over with you guys.”
Kurt grabbed Blaine by the hand and led hi toward the elevators. “Blaine, we are together in room 455. So, it looks like we are still roomies.” Kurt was relieved that they didn’t take that away from them. Even though the nightmares did not haunt his naps, he feared what would happen when he slept. Really slept.
“I can’t wait to be out of these pants.” Blaine grabbed Kurt by the hips and pulled him close running his hands around Kurt’s firm ass slightly squeezing him. “Seriously Blaine. Not like that out of them. Out of them because they are wet with you!” Blaine shut Kurt up with a kiss pushing his tongue into Kurt’s unsuspecting mouth. It was hot every time Kurt reminded him that ‘he’ was the reason for his discomfort. At first Kurt was going to fight it, but it only took seconds before Kurt melted into the kiss with Blaine caressing his ass and firmly squeezing his cheeks in his palms. Kurt wanted to jump up on his boyfriend and wrap his legs around him and then his want was a reality as he locked his legs around Blaine’s middle section. Blaine was holding him firmly by his ass cheeks while Kurt was wrapped around him.
Blaine smiled into the kiss. “I know how to make you melt so easily. It’s like I own you Babe.”
“You do own me. You own my heart Blaine.” Kurt was very matter of fact about this. It wasn’t scary to think that he was in love with Blaine.
“Let’s get changed before they start talking about us. Blaine put Kurt down as the elevator doors opened. Kurt slid the keycard in the lock and they entered. As expected, Finn and Puck had placed their suitcases as they walked in.
Kurt opened his suitcase and grabbed a shirt and some tailored pants. He wanted to look nice for the dinner cruise. “I am going to go into the bathroom to change. I’ll be right back.” Blaine changed in the room and glanced around to see where everything was. Mr. Payne spared no expense. There rooms were large and beautiful. Blaine looked forward to the night in here with Kurt.
Kurt emerged from the bathroom 5 minutes later. “I wish I had time to shower and work more on my face.”
“No need. Your face is perfect.” Blaine kissed lightly on his cheek. “You look fantastic as usual. I have no idea how it is that you make everything look great.”
“You, sir, are biased.” Kurt kissed Blaine on the cheek moving down to kiss his neck while caressing his other cheek with his hand. The stubble on his face felt rough but so nice against Kurt’s soft fingers. Blaine’s breath hitched at the feel of Kurt’s touch. “Now let’s get downstairs before they think we are up here fooling around.” Kurt grabbed Blaine’s hand and led him back into the hallway to the elevator.
They were back with their group walking across the street from the hotel. Stephan explained to them that they would be taking a lake cruise and having dinner. This would be around 2 � hours long. The boat was privately rented just for this group. “They have a band with music on board. This man must be ridiculously rich Kurt.” Rachel was so excited at the possibility that they could sing on board. “I wonder if we could possibly do some singing with the band.”
Kurt nodded as he took in the eating area and the aft area where there were a bunch of lounging areas built in around the railing. Blaine gave Kurt’s hand a squeeze as he whispered. “We are definitely going to sit there for a while on this trip.”
Dean Royce called to the entire group. “We should all head toward the eating area that is already set up. We have one rule for tonight. We would like to make sure that each table has equal Warblers and new Directions sitting at them and we want to see that you are sitting with people you would not normally sit with.”
Kurt turned to Blaine with a mad look. “There is no way I am not sitting this you tonight. I came here to spend time with you and enjoy the trip and this is part of said trip.”
“One meal sweetheart. I promise to make it up to you later tonight.” Blaine winked as he let go of Kurt’s hand to let him start to choose his table. In the end, Blaine was sitting at the table next to Kurt with Brittney, Trent and Jon. Kurt was with Lauren, Thad, and Jeff. They happen to be facing each other at their respective tables as the idle chatter is starting.
Kurt noticed immediately how Blaine could command the conversation and attention of a table almost immediately. His laugh was astounding and intoxicating even at this distance. His eye would squint as he told stories and listened to others and burst into the infectious laugh that Kurt absolutely loved. “Kurt, what was that car like?” Jeff cut into the visions of Blaine in Kurt’s head.
“Oh my God Jeff. It was beautiful. The leather is so soft and it’s quiet. You would be surprised how much room there actually is in the car.” Kurt’s mind wandered to the lovemaking session in the park outside of Basel. It was really incredible that they could both fit into the area and the touch of the leather while Blaine.. ‘oh. Better stop thinking about it’.
“Tested out how much room there was huh?” Thad nudged Kurt with his elbow. Kurt laughed it off. They would never know the real truth. The meal was beginning, the music was playing in the background and Kurt couldn’t take his eyes off his boyfriend just a few feet away. This was a good idea. Kurt didn’t realize how long it had been since he really talked to Lauren. This was Jeff and Thad’s first time meeting her.
“Yeah.. Okay so, Puck being the tough guy gets shoved in a port o potty and I saved him. I thought he was kinda hot so I agreed to join the glee club to see if he might be interested.” Lauren loved to tell this story. Kurt had heard it many times before but never tired of hearing it because it involved Puck being the one to get dumped on.
“You know. Puck used to throw me in the dumpster daily.” Kurt told his friends.
Jeff was shocked because the Puck he knew and met was a good guy that looked out for Kurt all the time. “How did you become friends? You guys seem so close.”
“Well, Puck happened to be Finn’s Best Friend and they were both in Glee. After a while, when they realized how much loved being part of New Directions, they realized that they did some mean things.”
“Is it cool having a brother the same age as you and doing the same activities?” Thad questioned.
“Well, honestly, I had the biggest crush on Finn. That’s the main reason I introduced my dad to his mom. You could say that all of it backfired, but it didn’t. I found Blaine in the meantime. I can’t believe how lucky I was to actually find love with someone who really and truly loves me back.” They all smiled, because they knew how Blaine felt about Kurt and now they knew how Kurt felt about Blaine.
The main course was served and Kurt was just finishing up. Everything was dark now. They could see lights on the shore outside the windows. It was beautiful outside. Kurt realized that he hadn’t looked for Blaine in the last 15 minutes and his gaze was drawn back to Blaine’s table where Blaine wasn’t. Kurt wondered where he went, but after 15 minutes passed, he was concerned. What if Blaine fell overboard. The water would be cold.
Kurt excused himself from his table. “Did any of you guys see Blaine leave his table. He’s been gone around 20 minutes and I’m worried about him.”
Thad and Jeff had not noticed. Kurt went to Blaine’s Table. “Where did Blaine go? He hasn’t been back in over 20 minutes.” Kurt was really starting to panic as he stood glancing around the entire eating area. There was no sign of Blaine. Finn looked up to see Kurt with the onset of panic in his eyes.
Finn crossed the room to Kurt. “You okay buddy?”
“No. I am panicked because Blaine’s been gone for now about 25 minutes and no one knows where he went.”
“Kurt calm down. It’s not like he could go anywhere. We are on a ship.” Finn was trying to reason and calm Kurt down, but he just wasn’t good at it.
“Finn, what if he fell overboard and drowned or froze to death?”
Just then Kurt heard him on the microphone. “If everyone would indulge me just one song. This is a song for a very special person. I think everyone in the room knows who it’s for, so Kurt, I just want to say thank you for being there for me all the time. Thank you for lifting my spirits up and saving me from my loneliness. This is an awesome oldie by Richard Marx called now and Forever. Kurt, I love you.”
Kurt was frozen in place, eyes wide, staring at his boyfriend with his eyes already glassy. Finn patted him on the back. “You okay?”
“I think s…..” Kurt drifted off and his eyes were locked on Blaine. Everyone else in the room might as well not exist. In this moment, they were not there for Blaine and Kurt.
Whenever I'm weary from the battles that rage
in my head
You make sense of madness when my sanity
hangs by a thread
I lose my way but still you seem to understand
Now and forever
I will be your man
Blaine gave his best all the time. You could always see all the emotion in his singing. His eyes partly closed.
Sometimes I just hold you
Too caught up in me to see
Blaine clutched his heart between playing the chords on the piano. It was perfect. Kurt had tears of love streaming down his face. The girls in the room were reduced to tears at that moment. He closed his eyes as he felt the keys on the piano in his soul. Blaine was always perfect sitting at the piano. He was made to be a performer.
I'm holding a fortune that heaven has given
to me
I'll try to show you each and every way I can
Now and forever
I will be you man
Now I can rest my worries and always be sure
That I won't be alone anymore
If I'd only known you were there all the @me
All this time
Blaine kicked the piano seat back a little to stand while he sang this next part. He was still filled with all the love and emotion he could find in himself.
Until the day the ocean doesn't touch the
sand
Now and forever
I will be your man
Now and forever
I will be your man
Kurt clutched his hand to his heart hoping to ease the ache to have Blaine in his arms right now. Even though he knew it would be so in just a few minutes, he still ached for Blaine. The entire group stood up clapping and screaming. It was absolutely beautiful and perfect for such a night. Blaine rose from the piano and made his way to Kurt with a single rose.
Blaine reached out and brushed the tears away from Kurt’s face. “Hey. This can’t be good for your complexion.” Blaine smiled as he wiped every tear away.
“Blaine, that was beautiful!” In the background, they could hear all the chatter over that performance and consideration to put that into the show tomorrow night.
“Do you want to take a walk. I really would rather be with my boyfriend than be lead Warbler right now.” Kurt nodded as they walked aft to the seating they saw as they boarded the boat. They could now hear people singing music. It seemed to sound like Finn and Rachel.
Blaine pulled Kurt down on top of him on one of the many lounge loveseats out there. Kurt crushed his lips to Blaine’s releasing all the tension and love he felt for Blaine. Massaging his tongue with Blaine’s tasting everything he could of Blaine. Kurt needed to be completely surrounded with Blaine’s scent, his skin, his breath, his touch, his voice and his sounds. It was primal and need was so basic. They needed nothing more than this right now. There would be later tonight for other things like intimacy. They lay on the couch and gaze up at the stars.
“Blaine. Do you think we will be able to look at these same stars wherever we live?”
“Yeah Kurt, I think we will.” Minutes passed and they could hear people wandering around the boat.
“There they are! Found them Finn.” Wes was yelling for Finn and he breathed a sigh of relief. Kurt, seriously, if something happened to you.
“Finn.. always panicked.”
Blaine patted him on the shoulder. “Thanks for caring. Now let’s get in there and sing some Blaine and Kurt songs.” He grabbed Kurt by the hand as they thought about what to sing. They ended up with singing the cheesiest rendition of “You’re the one that I Want”.
Soon everyone made their way out to the deck, tired from the long day and train ride. Tomorrow they would be going up one of the mountains. Everyone lined the railing looking out over the expanse of the lake and shoreline. Blaine turned to Kurt. “I promised to help out Puck in the romance depart. I guess I better start thinking about that.”
“I know you’ll think of something. “
Soon the ship returned to the pier and they all headed back to the hotel. Blaine and Kurt were happy to get back to their room just for the night.
