Blaine woke up Friday morning, still in Kurt's arms, to the sun streaming across his face through the window where they'd forgotten to close the curtains.

"Too bright," Blaine mumbled, trying to cover his face by burying it even deeper into Kurt's shoulder.

"Blaine?" Kurt asked his voice croaky and he was clearly still half asleep, "What?"

"Shh," Blaine soothed, his thumb rubbing over Kurt's hipbone, "Go back to sleep," he whispered, nosing at Kurt's neck.

"Can't," Kurt laughed softly, "That tickles," he giggled quietly as he tried to move away from Blaine mouthing at his neck and jaw.

"Mmm, I like it when you're stubbly," Blaine breathed.

"Oh god," Kurt exclaimed, sitting bolt upright, "I haven't shaved in almost a week,"

"That's fine by me," Blaine grinned, sitting up behind Kurt and wrapping his arms around his waist, moving his head so he could again move his lips over Kurt's jaw, just under his ear.

"No," Kurt shook his head, but making no means to move away from Blaine, "I don't like it when I haven't shaved. I can't pull off the scruff as well as you can,"

"I beg to differ," Blaine smiled against Kurt's jaw, humming quietly as he continued to place a lot of tiny kisses over the sensitive skin, "But I could help you if you really wanted me to?"

"Please?" Kurt pleaded, turning to look at Blaine.

"Come on," Blaine smiled, moving from behind Kurt to stand next to the bed, holding out his hand. Kurt smiled and stood up, taking Blaine's hand and beginning to move towards the bathroom. He stopped when he felt his arm tug and he turned to see Blaine walking in the other direction, "Where do you think you're going?" Blaine asked with a grin.

"Bathroom?" Kurt asked, becoming intrigued when Blaine shook his head.

"No," he replied, "My chair isn't just used for haircuts you know," he finished with a wink, nodding towards his barber's chair.

"So long as you don't go all Sweeny Todd on me," Kurt replied, Blaine laughed loudly as Kurt sat down.

"I can guarantee the closest shave you'll ever know," he winked again, turning to pull open a draw on his vanity unit.

"Don't tell me you sing to your razor too," Kurt quipped.

"You there my friend, come, let me hold you," Blaine sang as he pulled his straight razor out of its pocket in his kit.

"Oh no, now I've started you off haven't I?" Kurt said, shaking his head and trying to hold in his laughter.

"Who sir? You sir?" Blaine continued to sing, his mouth set in a huge grin.

"Ok, Sweeny, I think you've had enough now," Kurt laughed as he leaned forward and pressed a kiss to Blaine's lips, successfully silencing him.

"I promise I won't bake you into a pie," Blaine smiled as he pulled away, "Now if you'll excuse me for one moment, I have to fill up my bowl," Blaine winked again as he walked past Kurt and into the bathroom. Kurt heard rustling and then the faucet turn on, "Perfect," Blaine called from the bathroom, coming back into the bedroom, carrying a full bowl of steaming water.

"Are you sure you're not going to cook me?" Kurt asked at the sight of the steaming bowl of water.

"Not today baby," Blaine winked again, smiling as Kurt blushed at the term of endearment Blaine used. He liked it.

"Someone's obviously feeling better then," Kurt smiled, sighing as Blaine turned around and began to sing again.

"I'm alive at last, and I'm full of joy!" Kurt shook his head.

"How many times have you seen that movie?" he asked.

"Too many," Blaine laughed, "Me and few of my classmates used to watch it all the time during our course and I've seen the stage show too many times to remember. Johnny Depp was just amazing," Blaine sighed.

"Johnny Depp?" Kurt asked, an eyebrow raised.

"Oh come on Kurt, he's a babe," Blaine replied as he turned around to face Kurt. He picked up his razor and moved to stand behind the chair, Kurt turned to watch him. He picked up the leather strap attached to the arm of the chair and began sharpening his razor. Kurt watched with wide eyes as Blaine's wrist moved the razor up and down the strap in swift precise movements.

"Ok, that's kind of really hot," Kurt whispered, still watching Blaine's hand move. Blaine just looked up and smiled at him.

"We haven't even started yet," he replied softly. He smiled to himself as Kurt shivered in anticipation. When Blaine was convinced that his razor was sharp enough, he placed it back on the vanity and bent down to retrieve the detachable head piece, placing it in its slots behind Kurt's head. He then retrieved his cape from the top of the vanity unit and fastened it around Kurt's neck, "Ok, place your head back on the rest and I'm going to lower the chair," Kurt nodded and did as he was told, settling back in the chair and relaxing as Blaine lowered the back. He was almost lying flat when Blaine stopped, then Blaine moved his foot so he could pump up the chair to a more comfortable height, so he wouldn't hurt his back by leaning over Kurt.

"Hey," Kurt whispered, meeting Blaine's eyes once he had finished adjusting the chair.

"Hey," Blaine whispered back, leaning down to give Kurt a quick kiss, "Ok, I'm just going to wrap the hot towel around your face to help soften the hairs and while you're under that I'll mix up the shaving cream," Kurt nodded as Blaine turned to pull the towel out of the steaming water. He squeezed out the excess and unfolded it, placing it under Kurt's chin and wrapping it up over his face, "You look adorable," Blaine smiled; Kurt was now lying back, with almost his whole face covered by the warm towel. Kurt reached his hand out to smack Blaine's arm, Blaine just laughed and placed a soft kiss to the part of Kurt's forehead that wasn't covered by the towel. He then turned back to his unit and began mixing up the cream. It was a mixture that he was taught back when he'd taken a barber's night class during his course, it was a mixture of the specialty cream that he kept in his cupboard and a few essential oils to help moisturise the skin and make everything smell nice.

Blaine turned back to Kurt and slowly unwrapped the towel; he smiled when Kurt shivered a little after losing the warm contact from his face. Blaine placed the towel back in the bowl of water and picked up the pot of cream and his shaving brush, moving to stand to the side of Kurt, and he began brushing the cream over Kurt's small but cute amount of facial hair; brushing against the grain to get the hairs to stand up.

"Smells good," Kurt muttered, trying not to move his mouth.

"Hey you, keep still," Blaine smiled, concentrating as he finished applying the cream to the underside of Kurt's jaw. When finished he placed the pot back on his unit and picked up a towel which he placed on Kurt's chest, to wipe his razor on, "Ok, now I really need you to keep still," Blaine said, returning from his vanity unit with his straight razor in hand. Kurt nodded slightly and followed Blaine's hands with his eyes, straining to see Blaine place the razor just below his sideburn and began to drag it down slowly in small strokes, pausing every few seconds to wipe the mixture of shaving cream and hair on the towel on Kurt's chest. Kurt let out the breath that he'd been holding in, he had been slightly nervous about receiving his first straight razor shave, but he was enjoying it. He relaxed into the chair and closed his eyes, enjoying the feeling of Blaine moving his hands around his face, delicately pulling Kurt's skin taut to get a closer shave.

Blaine slowly made his way down one cheek before starting on the other, following the same path he had on the previous side of Kurt's face; keeping up with the small strokes. His strokes became even smaller when he began on Kurt's chin and upper lip, following the contours of his face and bone structure, careful to get every single hair and not cut his boyfriend.

"I just need you to lean your head back for me a little bit please babe," Blaine requested quietly, placing his fingers on Kurt's chin and forehead and guiding Kurt's head back so he would have better access to his neck, "Ok, and a little bit to the side," Kurt manoeuvred his head as he was told, and smiled when Blaine leaned down to peck his lips, "You're doing great," Blaine winked, a small gesture of silent encouragement. He knew that Kurt had been nervous before hand, but he was glad that he got to do this for Kurt. He loved the intimacy of being able to touch his face. He also loved that Kurt trusted him enough to do it, having someone running a sharp blade along your face takes a lot of trust.

Kurt watched Blaine's face as Blaine began moving the razor up his neck. The look on his face was pure concentration, focusing solely on the task at hand. Kurt knew that this was what made Blaine the top hairdresser that he was; because he paid so much attention to detail, making sure everything was perfect and nothing was out of place. Kurt admired that about Blaine, his ability to focus everything he had onto one thing and make it perfect.

"What are you thinking about?" Blaine asked quietly, allowing Kurt to answer while wiping the razor off.

"You," Kurt smiled at the faint blush dusting Blaine's cheeks. Blaine smiled and shook his head, keeping his eyes on his razor, now back at Kurt's neck. He held Kurt's head still as he slowly moved over Kurt's Adam's apple. Kurt was very cautious not to swallow while Blaine had has razor so close. He breathed a sigh of relief when Blaine had moved over the bump and back onto smooth and flat skin.

"Nearly done," Blaine said, getting Kurt to turn his head the other way so he had access to the other side of his neck. Kurt closed his eyes again and just enjoyed the feeling of Blaine's fingers brushing over the sensitive skin of his neck. He felt a little disappointed when Blaine announced that he was done, "Stay there, I'm not quite finished yet," Blaine smiled, moving to collect the warm towel again. He squeezed the water out and wrapped it back over Kurt's face, just like last time. he left it on for a few minutes before removing it and placing a few drops of after shave oil on his hands before rubbing them together and then gently massaging them into Kurt's face, "There," Blaine said softly, all done, he smiled down at Kurt.

Blaine removed the towel covered in cream from Kurt's chest and threw it in the hamper in the bathroom, he returned and unfastened his cape from around Kurt's neck, placing it back on the counter, but Kurt made no move to sit up.

"Comfy?" Blaine asked with a smile.

"Come here," Kurt whispered, chewing on his bottom lip as he took a hold of Blaine's hand and pulled him up onto his lap. Blaine placed both hands gently on either side of Kurt's freshly shaved face, "Thank you," he said quietly, looking up at Blaine through his lashes, "That was incredible," Blaine grinned.

"You're welcome," he replied, leaning down to place a kiss on Kurt's lips. He gasped quietly when Kurt's hand came up to twist in the hair at the back of his neck, and pull him closer, deepening the kiss, "Kurt," Blaine moaned, his tongue moving over Kurt's bottom lip.

"Hmmm," Kurt hummed in response, the vibrations travelling straight down Blaine's throat and pooling in his lower abdomen, "Thank you," Kurt whispered, panting slightly as he pulled away from Blaine, leaning his head back and guiding Blaine to lie down next to him in the chair. Blaine followed the silent instructions and curled up into Kurt's side, both of them fitting nicely in the barber's chair.

"You're welcome. Your face feels so good," Blaine said softly, nuzzling his nose over Kurt's, now, smooth cheek.

"Not just for today Blaine, but for everything," Kurt replied, turning his head to face Blaine, "You've shown me what it's like to open myself up again and I like it," he smiled shyly at Blaine. Blaine smiled back and moved forward to kiss Kurt again.

"You don't need to thank me. You figured it out all on your own," Kurt smiled and shook his head.

"Take the complement Blaine, you deserve it," Kurt smiled and Blaine nodded.

"Ok," he whispered, kissing Kurt again, "So what are your plans for today and the rest of the weekend Mr. Hummel?" Blaine asked, Kurt sighed.

"I have to go back to my place. Rachel's organised a weekend thing, I don't even know what it is, but it's been planned for months. It's something to do with her upcoming run with Wicked which will be travelling around the country. I think she mentioned something about costume fittings and makeup trials," Kurt groaned, "I don't want to go," he whined, turning his head to hide it in Blaine's neck.

"You'll be fine," Blaine soothed, rubbing his hand down Kurt's back, "It's only a couple of days,"

"I know, but it means I won't get to see you," Kurt pouted into Blaine's shoulder.

"Yeah, but think of all the time we'll have to ourselves when she's gone on tour," Blaine replied with a grin.

"I like the way you think Blaine Anderson," Kurt grinned as he lifted his head from Blaine's shoulder.

"I have my moments," Blaine laughed; Kurt silenced him with a kiss.

"That you do,"

"But I'll see you on Monday?" Blaine asked hopefully, and smiled when Kurt nodded.

"Yeah, I have to go back to work Monday night, but we could get lunch?" he offered. Blaine smiled and leaned in for a kiss.

"Sounds perfect,"

"It does," Kurt agreed. They both lay there, for another few minutes before Kurt's phone started to buzz on Blaine's nightstand, "That'll be Rachel," he sighed, sitting up from Blaine's embrace.

"I'm going to miss you," Blaine said softly, still lying in his chair, watching Kurt move around his room, collecting his small amount of things, and pulling on his only change of clothes, leaving the pyjamas of Blaine's that he'd been wearing on Blaine's bed.

"I know," Kurt smiled sadly over at Blaine, "But it's only for a couple of days, it'll be Monday before you know it. Plus, I think Wes misses you," Kurt finished as he walked back over to where Blaine was laying back, his head resting against the headrest.

"Yeah, I think he does," Blaine agreed quietly.

"I think you both need a pizza and beer night," Blaine nodded and closed his eyes as Kurt leaned down from above to give him a goodbye kiss, "Love you," Kurt whispered as he pulled away from Blaine.

"Love you too," Blaine replied.

"Do you want a book?" Kurt asked, Blaine shook his head.

"No thanks, I'm just gonna lie here," Kurt smiled as he picked up his bag and made his way over to the door, Blaine watching him as he went.

"I'll see you on Monday," Kurt waved.

"See you Monday," Blaine replied. Closing his eyes and sighing deeply when he heard the front door close.

It was going to be a long and lonely weekend, he thought to himself.
