"I was just wondering how you felt after last night? I also wanted to know whether you'd like to go on a date with me..."
"I umm... I'm gay Rachel" He said, horrified as sections of last night came back to him.
"That wasn't what you said when we shared that steamy kiss" Rachel crooned in response, clearly she'd been drinking again.
"I'm sorry Rachel, i think our... antics last night may have upset Kurt"
"Of course it did, he totally crushes on you!"
"He... Oh crap... Okay. Bye Rachel" He said finally, overwhelmed by the realization that Kurt had feelings for him, romantic feeling for him. How had he never seen this before?
"I was just wondering whether you'd like to go to the Lima bean or somewhere with me? I'm just headed out and i know how much you love your coffee." Dylan had said to Kurt later that afternoon after he'd finished rehearsing what to say countless times.
"Umm... Yeah, that's really nice of you to ask Dylan. I'll just make myself presentable and be right out." Kurt smiled politely and Dylan had to stop himself from telling Kurt that he always looked perfect. The taller boy left Kurt's room in high spirits and walked out to his mustang, drumming his fingers impatiently. He finally felt like he was getting somewhere with the angellic countertenor. Looking in the car mirror he let himself admire his reflection and began to tame his unruly blonde hair. Was this a date anyway? He hadn't specified either way, so he could live in hope.
Kurt set about fixing his hair and selecting his favourite scarf for the occasion, his tiff with Blaine forgotten. Dylan was a nice guy after all, exceptionally good looking now he thought about it. There was nothing to stop him trying things with Dylan, I mean if Dylan wanted to do things. He headed out after one last look in the mirror and was instead seeing the reflection of two mischievous looking senior counsel members.
"Kurt, come with us." David said whilst he and Wes grabbed one of Kurt's arms each, leading him to their room while he protested angrily.
"Guys I have to go, Dylan is waiting."
"He can wait 5 more minutes." David said and invited Kurt to sit opposite them. "Look, Blaine's upset. He's sorry for whatever he did and frankly we're fed up of hearing 'candles' on repeat."
"If he wants to apologize he can do so himself." Kurt said, feeling a little relieved that Blaine was as affected by their new found distance as he was.
Ryan Pitt had never really had a problem with Blaine in the few months that they had been rooming together; today, however, he'd gone too far. Blaine was currently lying face down in his pillow on the other side of their room, iPod blaring out 'Candles' by Hey Monday for the hundredth time that day.
"Blaine, buddy." Ryan raised his voice above the music and shook the Warbler's frontman gently.
"Mhmm." He uncharacteristically uttered.
"I think you should tell Kurt how you feel if it's cut you up this much."
"I've no idea what you mean Ry."
"The whole Academy knows that you and that girl from New Directions hooked up, they also know that Kurt has, or had, (Blaine involuntarily shuddered) a serious thing for you"
Blaine appeared to mull over this information, whether he was pondering admitting his feelings for Kurt or denying the whole thing was unbeknown to Ryan. Thankfully though for Blaine, David and Wes chose this moment to burst through the door.
"Kurt's going on a date with Dylan." Wes choked out and David nodded thoroughly to back up his point.
"No, they've never even spoken before." Blaine said, clutching at theoretical straws as he stood. Should he intervene? For Kurt's sake of course, to keep him safe and all that.
Comments
This chapter was really great. I thought it was really funny that Rachel was the one that made Blaine remember the kiss and that she actually thought that she had a chance with him. Wes and David were pretty awesome in this chapter because it was so different than how they were on the show. They were always so calm and serious so it was nice to see them excited and trying to intervene in the Kurt and Blaine drama. Can't wait to see what happens next.
