Blaine tried to keep to the side of the staircase, narrowly avoiding some over-excited students in their flee to get a good spot for the small impromptu Warbler performance.
"Excuse me." Said a kind voice behind him. A boy with meticulously groomed hair was snaking his way across the staircase to someone who looked like he would listen. "Um, hi can I ask you a question, I'm new here." The boy's eyes buzzed around the room nervously. Blaine extended his hand.
"My name's Blaine." Kurt finally focused in on Blaine and looked into his eyes. Kurt felt his eyes water up with tears. Blaine was captivated by the deep blue, suddenly very dizzy. "K-K-Kurt?" Blaine began to feel his legs wobble and knees clatter. He grabbed onto the staircase rail and reached for his bag at his shoulder, counting back from 10.
"B-Blaine? Are you oka-"
"Nine… n-n-n-nine. Eight-t…" Blaine trembled digging through his bag and finally reaching whatever he was looking for. He clicked a buzzer several times.
"Blaine? What's going on?" Blaine looked up at him.
"K-Kurt." Blaine gasped, and fell to the floor.
"BLAINE!" Kurt screamed and managed to catch his head before he crashed to the floor. Kurt was sobbing now as he screamed out for help, but no one seemed to hear him. Finally, some boy with black hair came sliding down the hall.
"I FOUND HIM!" He yelled. He ran up the few steps and towards Blaine.
"NO!" Kurt hissed. "You get away from him!" Kurt yelled. "Don't-d-d-don't t-t-ouch him!" Kurt held him in his arms, Blaine's limp head on his shoulder.
"Look, new kid," the boy said seriously but with kind eyes, "… what's you're name."
"Kurt."
"Right, well Kurt, Blaine needs help and if you don't let us… wait…. KURT?" The sobbing boy bobbed his head. The man reached down for Blaine's buzzer. He frantically called an alert.
March Hare on site. Calling Mad Hatter, Dormouse, and the Tweedles. Code Alice! White Rabbit down! Can we get a hole in here, Caterpillar? Move it people! I repeat, CODE ALICE!
More unfamiliar bodies popped into the scene. "Tweedles, hold Alice." They pulled Kurt away from Blaine.
"NO! PUT ME DOWN! DON'T TOUCH HIM!" Kurt cried, kicked out against the two. (Ow! Watch where you throw your foot, Mister!)
"March Hare! Knave on site!"
"Thanks Caterpillar. Oi, Ethan! Any way you can keep the boy down yourself?" He nodded. "Evan with Mad Hatter! Can you cause a mild distraction for us please?" The boys addressed smiled devilishly at eachother.
"Nearest Exit on your Left, 10 paces. Switch behind the curtain."
"Thanks again!" He called to the speaker. The boys came running back, sounds of hissing and a large BOOM lighting behind them. "Help me with White Rabbit. The three of them carried Blaine off in the direction the speaker-man, apparently called "Caterpillar," designated. They pulled the switch and after a few minutes, they reached the end of the path, where a lever was pulled, lowering a small stone staircase. Kurt was carried on the shoulder of "Ethan" as they ascended the bumpy staircase.
"P-p-please. Just let me see Blaine."
"You will in a moment, I promise." Replied his carrier kindly. They reached the Windsor house, where all the boys piled in.
"Oi! What's going on."
"Not now, Julian!" Called "the March Hare." The boys began to ascent upstairs-but not Kurt.
"Wait? Why are we stopped!"
"You're staying here, little Alice."
"NO!"
"Hey…" Ethan put him down and looked into Kurt's eyes. "He'll be okay. Don't worry. We've been ready for this. You look like you could use some air? Why don't you go sit in the garden? I'm sure White Rabbit will be with you soon."
"But-"
"RAWR!" Ethan suddenly screamed to avoid protest.
"Alright, Alright!" Kurt followed where Ethan pointed to the garden. Suddenly Kurt was taken back by the beautiful lilies, roses, lavender, cherry blossoms… butterflies flit around and hummingbirds buzzed busily. He sat down on the small bench by a fountain. Kurt thought it looked like the one from Notting Hill… but a bit more elegant.
As he sat down, the last five minutes suddenly flashed in front of him. Kurt was in hysterical tears. He hadn't spent a day without Blaine on his mind… he wanted to erase the last 4 years of his shitty life. He just wanted to see Blaine but each time he tried….
"He is better off without you, Kurt! Let him have the life he's always deserved."
A tear streaked down his cheek. Kurt got comfortable on the bench, curling up into a little ball, and fell asleep.
Blaine's eyes fluttered open.
"Reed, hi." Blaine greeted.
"H-hi." He replied shyly.
"Have you been here this entire time? How long has it been anyway? Man I'm hungry. What happened to me?"
"Blaine, you should take it easy-"
"OH MY GOD!" Blaine jumped up from his bed, head pounding against his ears, still very dizzy. He grabbed firmly onto the handrail and ran downstairs, nearly tripping several times.
"Blaine!" The boys greeted. "You're up!"
"WHERE IS HE?" Blaine demanded.
"I sent him out to the garden… I haven't seen him-" The door closed behind Blaine. The sun had set and the moon had risen- there on the bench, in the shining moonlight reflecting from the fountain…
"Kurt." Blaine breathed. Blaine picked the nearest red rose and approached the boy. Kurt was fast asleep looking rather uncomfortable. Blaine kneeled by his side- he couldn't believe he was real. "K-Kurt?" Blaine said softly, touching his cheek. Kurt sleepily awoke, eyes still red and puffy.
"Blainers." His eyes began to well up with tears once more.
"Hi." Blaine said kindly. Kurt cupped Blaine's hand against his cheek. "You're really here."
"I-I-I'm…" Kurt started. "I'm s-" Blaine shushed him. Kurt threw his arms around him, crying into his shoulder.
"It's okay, shh."
"How can you say that? After all the bullshit I put you through!"
"You were trying to help-"
"I didn't do much! I could see it in your eyes when you saw me." Kurt sniffled. "I never stopped thinking about you." Kurt told him.
"Me neither." Blaine smiled through watery eyes.
"You can't just… can't just forgive m-me-"
"Watch me."
"But I-"
"Look Kurt, I don't care what you did as long as you don't EVER leave me again." Blaine said sternly, staring into his eyes.
"I won't."
"Good." Blaine said, cheeks starting to blush. He leaned down and picked up the rose he'd dropped at his feet and gave it to the lovely Alice.
"Blaine?"
"You aren't dating anyone?"
"No." Blaine replied. "Are you?"
"No." Kurt replied staring at his feet. The night was still and quiet. After a long moment, Kurt raised his voce, "And I want you to know I… I still lo-"
"Hi guys!" Called Evan and Ethan. "Come on inside it's getting chilly. And you need to eat, Blaine.
"You are supposed to be in bed, Anderson!" Yelled Wes from the house. Blaine rolled his eyes and rose to his feet.
"Shall we?" Kurt's words were left unsaid as they walked back into Wonderland. Kurt felt uneasy as he watched Blaine carry on after…. What exactly didhappen?
