"Well Blaine, I have to say that that was the best second date I have ever been on," Kurt commented as the elevator doors opened at the floor to his apartment, "I know it's still early, but do you want to come in? Rachel's out," Blaine laughed at Kurt's last comment.
"I'd love to come in, and you're very welcome too Kurt. I thought it would be good if we could just go and do something fun for the day,"
"Well the zoo certainly was a good idea," Kurt pulled his keys out of his pocket and flicked through them to place the correct one in the door. He hand faltered a little when Blaine's arm slipped around his waist, giving his right hip a squeeze. Kurt managed to get his thoughts back on track and was able to push the key into the lock, but was surprised again when a soft pair of lips began peppering kisses along the back of his neck.
"Blaine, if you keep that up I'm never going to be able to get the door open," Kurt stated, Blaine just laughed softly against the back of his neck.
"How about if I do this?" Kurt let out a squeal of surprise when Blaine pulled him back so they were flush against each other, and he wrapped his other arm around Kurt.
"Blaine," Kurt warned, in almost a pleading tone.
"Sorry," Blaine placed a final kiss against Kurt's neck and let him go so he was able to get the door open. Kurt pushed the door open and moved to let Blaine inside. Both men made their way into the kitchen and Kurt flicked the kettle on.
"Coffee?" he asked Blaine, reaching up to pull two mugs from the cupboard.
"Yes please," Blaine smiled. The waited in silence for the water to boil before Kurt poured their coffees and they made their way into the living room and sat down on the couch, Kurt switching the TV on, but not really paying attention, his mind was elsewhere.
"Blaine?" he asked cautiously, placing his mug on the table in front of him and turning to face Blaine.
"Yes?" Blaine replied, his tone changing from light to concern in the blink of an eye.
"Can I ask you a question?" Blaine nodded, not wanting to speak and interrupt Kurt's thoughts, "What are we? Like are we-," Kurt trailed off, not able to finish the sentence.
"Boyfriends?" Blaine filled in the blank for him.
"Yeah," Kurt nodded, keeping his eyes downcast.
"Hey, look at me," Blaine spoke softly as he placed two fingers under Kurt's chin and raised his head gently so that their eyes met, "If that's what you want Kurt," Kurt nodded slowly, his chin still resting in Blaine's hand.
"Yeah, I would like that," he smiled at Blaine, who smiled back.
"Ok then. It's official," Blaine leaned in slowly to place a quick peck on Kurt's lips, he didn't want to move to fast and scare Kurt, it was Blaine however that got a fright when Kurt wrapped both of his arms around Blaine's neck and pulled him in closer, pressing their lips together and gently beginning to suck Blaine's lower lip into his mouth, running his tongue over it and making Blaine shiver, "Kurt," Blaine managed to moan as Kurt swiped his tongue against Blaine's.
"Mmmm," was all Kurt replied with as he began to move backwards, lying himself down and pulling Blaine on top of him. Blaine quickly moved so he was propping himself up with one of his arms, keeping him from completely smothering Kurt. His other hand moved to rest against Kurt's side, his thumb gently rubbing at Kurt's ribs through the shirt he was wearing.
Kurt released Blaine's tongue from his mouth for a split second, giving Blaine the chance to move his lips along Kurt's jaw, gently sucking his way along the smooth edges and ending up in the crease under Kurt's ear. Blaine smiled into the kiss as Kurt let out a low moan, Blaine having clearly found a soft spot. He continued to work his mouth there for a little while longer, but not sucking hard enough to leave a mark.
Kurt moved his head to bare more of his neck for Blaine, giving Blaine more area to work with. He slowly kissed his way down one of the tendons in Kurt's neck, stopping to mouth at where his neck stopped and his shoulder began, before moving to the right and gradually licking his way up Kurt's neck, pausing at his Adams apple. He began mouthing over the prominent bump there, and let out a stifled groan when he felt Kurt's vocal chords vibrate against his lips, when he let out his own moan.
He moved up again and placed another kiss to Kurt's lips before making his way across the other side of Kurt's jaw, stopping when he found another of Kurt's soft spots at his hairline. He sucked his way back down Kurt's neck again, this time focusing more on the crease where his neck met his shoulder. He raised his hand that he was using to prop himself up, and tugged gently at the collar of Kurt's shirt. He moved it to the side enough so that he now had access to Kurt's collarbone.
"Oh god, Blaine," Kurt whined, his hands moving up to tangle in Blaine's hair. Blaine's other hand began to move slowly downwards, toward Kurt's belt. He fisted Kurt's shirt and made to tug it from where it was tucked into his jeans. His movements stopped suddenly when he felt Kurt freeze underneath him. His head shot up and his eyes searched Kurt's face. All of the colour had drained from Kurt's face, he was ghostly pale, and his eyes seemed lifeless.
"Kurt," Blaine whispered, trying to coax the other man into himself, "Kurt," he raised his hand and moved it to gently stroke Kurt's cheek. The second Blaine's fingertips brushed Kurt's skin his eyes snapped shut, he screwed up his face and his whole body flinched, "Oh god, what did he do to you?" Blaine whispered, mostly to himself as he sat up, pulling himself off of Kurt and he reached for Kurt's hand which was now resting still against his side. He breathed a sigh of relief when Kurt didn't pull his hand away when he took it, "Kurt? Kurt can you hear me? I'm so sorry Kurt, I didn't mean for it to go that far," Blaine whispered softly, kneeling down on the carpet next to the couch, his free hand reaching up to brush away of piece of Kurt's bangs which had fallen free and were hanging in his eyes. Kurt didn't flinch away from that touch so Blaine continued to run his hand back through Kurt's hair, waiting for his to respond, "I'm so sorry," Blaine kept repeating, his hand still moving delicately through Kurt's hair, "Kurt, I'm so sorry," after what felt like hours, but it was really only a matter of seconds, Kurt sucked in a deep breath and turned his head to look at Blaine, "Are you ok?" Blaine asked, his eyes searching Kurt's for an answer, Kurt nodded slowly.
"Yeah, things just moved a bit fast,"
"I'm sorry Kurt, I didn't mean to I just -," Blaine was silenced by Kurt leaning over and placing a finger against his lips.
"Blaine, it's ok, I just freaked out. But everything's fine, ok?" Blaine nodded as Kurt sat up to pull Blaine into a hug.
"I promise I'll never hurt you," Blaine whispered into Kurt's hair as he wrapped his arms around his shoulders, moving so they were sitting side by side again on the couch. He felt Kurt relax a little at his words and just pulled his closer, moving so Kurt could rest his head on his chest, "How about we just watch some TV?"
"TV sounds good," Kurt said softly, his voice reverberating through Blaine's chest. Blaine moved to pick up the remote and change the channel from the news that was currently playing. He settled on a channel, not really paying attention to what was on, more concerned about the man he was holding in his arms. He continued to stroke his fingers through Kurt's hair as they sat in a comfortable silence and watched the TV.

"Morning sunshine," Wes chimed as he pushed open Blaine's door, finding him shirtless and drying his wet hair off with a towel in front of his mirror.
"Still haven't figured out that knocking thing yet have you," Blaine sighed as she shook his head and laughed at his best friend.
"Nope," Wes grinned, taking a seat in Blaine's barber chair, "So what are you plans for today Mr Anderson?" Wes asked as he pulled his feet up to place them on the footrest of the chair.
"Kurt's coming round," Blaine grinned.
"Ah, and how long has it been now?"
"Since we met or since we became official?"
"Both?"
"Stop trying to pretend like you don't know Wes,"
"I know that I know, but I think to watch that silly love struck look that you get on your face whenever you talk about it," Blaine smacked Wes over the head with his towel, "Hey, no need to get violent here Blaine, you're too cute for that," Wes laughed as Blaine picked his towel back up and resumed squeezing the water out of his hair.
"Fine, if you must know, it's been six weeks since we met and four weeks since we become official. There happy now, does my face look love struck enough for you?" Blaine replied sarcastically.
"Oh shut up you, you know you love talking about your relationship, I just keep asking to keep you happy," Blaine grinned at Wes.
"I knew there was a reason as to why I keep you around," Blaine threw his towel into his bathroom and opened one of the cupboards on his vanity unit, pulling out his haircutting kit.
"Oh, can you cut mine for me?" Wes asked, his eyes following Blaine's kit.
"Not today sorry Wes, that's why Kurt's coming over," Wes sighed.
"Guess I should get used to coming after the boyfriend these days," he let out a small laugh.
"You know I love you, I just like Kurt a little bit more," Blaine winked at him.
"How long until he gets here?" Blaine looked up at the clock on his wall.
"About another hour and a half," Wes just stared at Blaine with big eyes and until Blaine sighed in defeat, "Fine, I'll cut your hair for you," he opened up his kit and pulled out his clippers and the attachments' hat he always used on Wes' hair.
"I knew there was a reason as to why I keep you around," Wes retorted as Blaine wrapped his cape around him.
"Hey, I'm the one with the clippers here, no clever remarks or you may find yourself looking like Bruce Willis for three months,"
"Yeah, Jen would love you for that," Wes snorted as Blaine plugged his clippers in.
"Oh you know that she'd take my side. She likes me better, plus you would have deserved it," Wes just stuck out his tongue at Blaine as Blaine moved his clippers up to Wes' hairline before moving them through and taking his friends hair shorter, "Yes, that's very mature of you Wesley," Blaine stated, as he made another pass through Wes' hair.
Blaine was done in under twenty minutes, given the fact that all of Wes' hair could be cut with the clippers, eliminating the tedious scissor work.
"There, that wasn't so hard was it Blaine," Wes quipped as he stood from Blaine's chair and ducked into the bathroom, quickly inspecting his haircut and returning with a broom, cleaning up the floor as Blaine re-oiled his clippers, ready for Kurt later.
"Fine, I'm sorry Wes. I'm sorry that your hair is very easy to cut and that I didn't want to get my tools dirty because I wanted them clean for Kurt, there, are you happy now?"
"Yes, thank you," Wes grinned as he swept up the last of the hair into the dustpan and threw it in the trash, "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have a shower and get rid of all of the little itchy hairs that like to hang out down my shirt," Blaine just laughed at Wes as he left the room, leaving Blaine to finish oiling his clippers and cleaning Wes' hair out of the attachments'.
Wes returned back from the shower only minutes later and sat himself back up on Blaine's vanity unit.
"So I never asked you how things are going with Kurt," Wes asked, Blaine sat himself down in his barber's chair and looked at Wes.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, how are things? Last time you mentioned that you were taking it slow. Is he warming up to things yet or it is still at the same pace?" Blaine could tell that Wes wasn't trying to pry, the tone in his voice told Blaine that was genuinely asking how Kurt was after Blaine told him about the time Kurt froze.
"We're still taking it slow, but that doesn't bother me," Blaine answered honestly, "I like the fact that our relationship isn't based on sex, it's nice to not have that pressure. I mean we kiss, and have pretty awesome make out sessions, but then it just eases off into snuggling, which to most would sound very ‘high school romance'," Blaine brought his hands up to signal air quotes, "But it's nice. We have fun and do romantic things, we just don't end up fucking like rabbits at the end of every date. I love that there are no expectations, Kurt will let me know when he's ready for that step and we'll go from there, but at the moment, I'm happy with where we are," he smiled, thinking about their previous date, curled up on Blaine's couch, watching a movie.
"I'm happy for you man," Wes grinned at Blaine, "It's nice to see you with someone who appreciates you and isn't just using you for sex. I'm glad that you and Kurt found each other,"
"Thanks Wes, I'm glad we did too," Wes nodded before jumping off of the unit and patting Blaine's shoulder on his way out of Blaine's room.
Kurt still wasn't due around for another hour so he picked up his book from his bedside table and moved to sit back in his barber chair, pulling his feet up and getting comfortable. Thirty minutes later he was snapped out his ‘book reading trance', as Wes had named it, by the sound of the door knocking.
"Blaine, your better half is here," he heard Wes yell down the hall.
"I think it's time for you to go and visit your better half Wes, "Blaine replied as he rounded the corner and entered the kitchen, he ignored Wes' reply and went straight up to Kurt, "Hey," he said quietly in greeting as they both leaned forward for a kiss.
"And that's my cue to leave," Wes stated as he got up from the kitchen table.
"Jealous Wes?" Blaine teased as he wound an arm around Kurt's waist and turned to face his friend.
"Very. I'm going to go and find my girlfriend and try to look at least half as cute as you two do, so if you'll excuse me; it was nice to see you again Kurt, and thanks for the haircut Blaine. I'll catch you later," he waved as he made his way out of the kitchen. Blaine turned and placed another kiss against Kurt's temple when they both heard the front door shut.
"Hey," Kurt said as he faced Blaine, squeezing Blaine's hand which was resting on his hip, "How was work yesterday?" he moved out of Blaine's grasp and walked over to switch the kettle on. He'd spent so much time at Blaine's over the last month that it almost felt like a second home to him now. Blaine sighed as he sat down on one of the bar stools, placing his elbows on the counter and resting his cheek on his palm.
"Busy, the back to school rush has started. Thankfully we're a little to upmarket for the elementary kids, but we're fully booked with high school and college students. If I have to see one more picture of a model with ombre coloured hair I'm going to scream," Kurt laughed softly as he poured them each a coffee, "Thank you," Blaine said with a smile as Kurt pushed his cups towards him, "How was the show last night?"
"Busy, we had a moment of panic when one of the actresses though her wig had fallen apart, thankfully, it had just come undone and was easily fixed, but otherwise it was just the usual rush before our Saturday shows," he finished, taking a sip of his drink, "Thankfully no one asked for any ombre dye jobs," Kurt laughed.
"I know it looks good on some people, but it's not made for everyone. People need to choose a style that they like and that suits them, not just follow fashion trends. You're a perfect example Kurt, I mean at you're outfit today, it's stunning and gorgeous and everything in between and I've never seen anyone else wear it before, good for you," Blaine finished taking a long sip of his coffee.
"Ok, thank you for those encouraging words," Kurt laughed as Blaine sighed.
"I'm sorry Kurt, I just get bored doing the same things over again. I like it when people come in and just say make me look different, or something along those words, like you did when we first met," Blaine looked up from his mug and smiled at Kurt as their eyes met, "I mean I'm not saying that every girl with long blonde hair should walk in and ask me to give them a chocolate brown bob, I just people would give me the chance to show them what I can do, to let me help them find a style that suits them and not the current trends," Kurt placed a hand over Blaine's that wasn't holding his mug and smiled at his boyfriend.
"Want to help me find mine again?" he said with a wink, causing Blaine to visibly relax and smile back at Kurt.
"Of course, everything is all set up for. Wes even tidied up himself after I cut his hair this morning because I told him that you were coming over," Blaine stood from the stool and followed Kurt back to his bedroom.
"That was nice of him," Kurt laughed as he made himself comfortable in Blaine's chair. He watched as Blaine unfolded his cape from on top of the vanity unit and moved forward slightly so that he could fasten it behind his neck, "Rachel was asking when she can finally meet you again this morning," Blaine laughed as he turned to face Kurt.
"Hey it's not me who's keeping me from her," he said as he threw his hands up in defence. Kurt nodded.
"I know, I just don't want you to be freaked out by her, she can be little intense sometimes, plus she keeps going on about when are you going to do her hair, I suggested that she should make an appointment with you at the salon, but she just ignored me, proving my point that she's after a free haircut," Blaine laughed.
"Next weekend," Kurt looked at Blaine with a puzzled expression on his face, "Tell her that I'll come round to your place next weekend and do whatever she wants me to do with her hair, even if she just wants me to put in a pony tail for her, that way it'll get her off of your back, I'll get to meet her and she gets my free service. It also gives me an excuse to come around and see you," he grinned as he turned back to his vanity unit and snapped an attachment onto the clippers.
"You know that you don't need a reason to come and see me," Kurt replied.
"I know," Blaine nodded, "But that way it doesn't sound like I'm only there for Rachel," Kurt grinned up at Blaine.
"Good point. Now what are you doing to me today?" he asked, excitement flooding his voice.
"Well I was thinking about taking your hair a little bit shorter than what I did last time. If that's ok,"
"Blaine as I said before, I trust you. If you think it's going to look good then do it," Kurt smiled at Blaine.
"Ok," Blaine nodded moving to stand behind Kurt. Just like last time, he placed his hand on top of Kurt's head, guiding so his chin was now resting on his chest, "Are you comfortable like that?" he heard Kurt chuckle softly.
"Yes Blaine, I'm fine. You can relax ok," Kurt replied softly.
"Sorry, I'm just a little nervous,"
"Why?" Kurt asked, ducking his head out from under Blaine's fingers and turning to face him.
"Because now I'm not just cutting your hair, I'm cutting my boyfriends hair, and I've never done that before,"
"You never cut your previous boyfriend's hair?" Kurt asked, Blaine shook his head.
"No, they never stuck around long enough to need one," Kurt smiled affectionately at Blaine.
"You'll be fine. You've cut my hair before, this time is no different except now I can thank you with a kiss afterwards," Blaine grinned as he moved his hand back up to Kurt's head, guiding it back down again.
"That you can," he laughed as he switched his clippers on and moved them to Kurt's nape, pushing them up through his hair slowly, cutting the hair in their path shorter and evenly. He felt Kurt's body shiver slightly under his hand and smiled to himself, he knew that Kurt secretly liked it when he cut his hair with clippers, he just wasn't up to admitting that to Blaine just yet. He took the clippers higher this time, flicking them away from Kurt's head when he reached his crown, causing the cut hair to rain down onto the cape. There wasn't too much hair to begin with due to the fact that Blaine was using the longest attachment first. He held his hand steady on Kurt's head when he felt Kurt try and move to see how much hair Blaine had taken off. To appease him, Blaine flicked the next lot of cut hair over Kurt's shoulder, he smiled at the small intake of breath Kurt took when he saw the longer pieces of hair falling to the floor, but still Kurt didn't say anything, he was enjoying the feeling of the clippers too much to complain.
Blaine slowly worked his way around Kurt's head before switching off his clippers and snapping on a smaller attachment, placing his hand on Kurt's head again he guided it forward and began tracing his previous patterns, but not going quite as high, in order to fade his layers into one another.
Blaine snapped on two more attachments before letting Kurt know that this was the final one, again he moved Kurt's head forward, asking if he could bend anymore forward so as to get perfect exposure to the back of his neck, Kurt did as he was told and extended his neck forwards even more. Blaine had to fight himself against leaning forward to kiss at the vast expanse of Kurt's exposed neck, the deciding factor was that his neck was covered with short, cut hairs and Blaine knew that they were not fun to have stuck to you face. He found that out the hard way when he tried to trim his own hair with scissors in the bathroom one day.
Blaine brought the clippers back up to Kurt's neck and cut the remaining layer of hair, bringing it right down to almost stubble. He then titled Kurt's head to the side and cleaned up his sideburns, bringing the base of them down to the same length as hairs at the nape if his neck, he moved onto the other side before asking Kurt to duck his head forwards just like he previously had. Blaine switched off his clippers and removed the attachment completely. He saw Kurt's eyes widen and squeezed his shoulder.
"Don't worry, this is just to clean up your neck line. My trimmer died this morning when I was shaving and it hasn't finished charging, so I'll use these instead. I promise I'm not shaving your head," Blaine grinned. He switched the clippers back on and placed them at the cut line on cuts neck and moved them downwards this time, away from Kurt' hair, taking with them any remaining hairs on Kurt's neck. He unfastened the top of the cape to get better access to the rest of his neck, and took the unguarded clippers all the way down to where the collar of Kurt's shirt began. He felt Kurt tremble under touch again as he moved the clippers back up the left side of Kurt's neck and followed the line he'd made beside them, down to his shirt again.
"There, that's nice and clean," Blaine commented as he switched his clippers off and placed them back on his unit. He moved to fasten the cape back up and gave Kurt a smile in the mirror as he bent forwards to collect his comb and scissors. He began to comb pieces of Kurt's hair up and hold them between his fingers before chipping into them with his scissors. Never once cutting in a straight line, always cutting down and into the piece of hair, still taking it shorter, but creating texture as well.
Kurt sat in silence as Blaine worked methodically. Kurt liked watching Blaine cut his hair, he liked the look of concentration and passion on Blaine's face. He knew that his boyfriend loved what he did and he knew that he loved to do Kurt's hair for him to. Even though Blaine did close to one hundred haircuts a week for his clients, he still made Kurt feel like he was the only one Blaine ever did this for. He loved how intimate Blaine made it feel, like he wasn't just getting his haircut, but he was getting a form of special treatment as well. Kurt was so used to just walking into a salon and having someone cut his hair and then walking out again, that he'd never realised how much he enjoyed Blaine cutting his hair; although that could partly be because now it was his boyfriend cutting his hair and not a stranger, but nonetheless, Kurt was excited when he woke up this morning, knowing that he was going over to Blaine's for this reason.
He looked back up into the mirror, watching Blaine's fingers work. They moved so fast, but yet never once did something they weren't supposed to. He really was one of the best hairdressers in the state.
"Ok, if you could just close your eyes for a second Kurt and I'll finish up the front and then I'll be done," Kurt smiled at Blaine as he did as he was told. He felt Blaine move and stand in front of him, his fingers brushed lightly over Kurt's forehead as Blaine gathered what would be his bangs in his fingers and began to chip into them as well. Kurt's nose crinkled up as he felt the small cut hairs dust over his face as the joined the rest on his cape. He heard Blaine laugh softly at the look on his face.
"Sorry Kurt, I'm almost done," Kurt didn't want to risk opening his mouth to speak, he didn't very much fancy getting his tongue covered in his hair. He felt Blaine's hands move away from his hair and he heard him place his tools back on his unit, but he still didn't open his eyes because he could feel the tiny hairs still resting on his face. He jumped softly at the feeling of Blaine placing his hands on his knees and giving them a gentle squeeze before a light breeze dusted across his face. Blaine had leaned forward and was blowing the small hairs from Kurt's face. Kurt's insides went all warm at the intimacy of the gesture.
"Ok Kurt, it's safe for you to open your eyes now," Blaine whispered, his breath ghosting over Kurt's lips. Kurt slowly opened his eyes to be met by hazel ones only a short space away from his own. He moved forward and pressed his lips against Blaine's.
"Thank you," he breathed as he pulled away, bringing his arms up from under the cape to wrap around Blaine's neck.
"You haven't even seen it yet," Blaine replied, trying to keep his grin from covering his entire face.
"I know," Kurt nodded, "But I know it's going to look good," Blaine nodded and moved slowly away from Kurt. Kurt's arms fell back down to his sides as Blaine stepped away from the mirror giving Kurt a full view of his new haircut.
"Blaine," he gasped, looking over to Blaine before moving his head back to look at himself again, "Blaine it's perfect," he brought his hands back up to touch the freshly cut hair at the side of his head, "Wow, I look good," Kurt breathed.
"You look amazing," Blaine replied, moving back to stand behind Kurt, holding up his hand held mirror for Kurt to see the back, "I know it's a lot shorter than your used to, but I was thinking about it last night and I knew that if I took your hair shorter you would really suit it. You have the perfect face shape to pull off hair this short, and it makes your eyes stand out," Blaine smiled at him in the mirror. Kurt was still rubbing his hands over his short hair, "Blaine, it feels so good," he moved one of his hands away to grab at Blaine's pulling him back around so Kurt could kiss him again.
"Let's get this cape off of you Kurt so we can drop all of the hair in your lap onto the floor," Kurt nodded as Blaine undid the cape and moved it to the side, causing the cut hairs to fall to the floor, joining the rather large pile that was already there.
"Wow, that's a lot of hair," Kurt commented, looking at the pile which, moments before, was still attached to his head.
"You have very thick hair Kurt," Blaine grinned as he leaned in for another kiss. Kurt's hands wrapped up around Blaine's neck, burying his fingers into Blaine's curls, he gave them a small tug before pulling away.
"How long since you had your hair cut last Mr Anderson?" Kurt asked, his tone deepening.
"Since before I first met you," Blaine answered, "Why? Do you want to cut it for me now?" Blaine asked, his tone sounding hopeful.
"I could if you want me to, I'll even admit that I may have gone to one or two classes on how to properly cut curly hair,' Kurt admitted with a blush.
"What?" Blaine asked, his voice softening.
"I wanted to really know what I was doing if ever you asked me to cut your hair for you," Kurt answered.
"You did that, for me?" Blaine asked, sounding surprised, his smile growing with every second.
"Of course," Kurt nodded. Blaine pulled him in for another kiss before he lifted Kurt out of his barber's chair and sat himself down, Kurt now straddling his hips.
"Ok Mr Hummel, show me what you can do," Blaine grinned with one final peck to Kurt's cheek. Kurt stood from Blaine's lap and moved to collect the cape that Blaine had just shaken free of Kurt's hair. He draped it over Blaine, fastening it behind his neck before moving to collect Blaine's comb and spray bottle.
"I'm not soaking your hair, I'm just dampening it so that the curls will take shape and I'll know which ones I've cut and how they will lie when I have cut them," Blaine nodded, approving of Kurt's method.
Kurt was just about start spraying Blaine's hair when his phone in his pocket began to ring.
"Sorry, do you mind if I take this?" Blaine shook his head.
"Of course not," he watched Kurt pull out his phone and mouth ‘Finn' to Blaine, letting him know who was calling.
"Hey Finn, what's up?" he asked, his tone light, "What?" he asked into the phone, "No, no Finn, no," Blaine watched as he began shaking his head furiously. Blaine stood from the chair and undid the cape from around his neck, moving to place a hand on Kurt's shoulder, Kurt was standing with his back to Blaine, "Is he ok, please Finn, tell me that he's ok," Blaine felt his heart drop to his stomach at the tone of Kurt's voice, it kept breaking and Blaine could tell that he was crying, "Ok, I'm getting on the next plane. I'll text you when I know when I'm landing. Bye Finn," he hung up, but still stayed facing away from Blaine. Blaine moved forwards and wrapped his arms around Kurt from behind, holding him tighter when Kurt sniffed again. After a few minutes, Kurt was finally able to talk, "My dad ... he collapsed, he's in hospital again," he paused to sniff again, "They don't know what's wrong," now Kurt really began to break down, he turned around in Blaine's arms and fell into his chest.
Blaine stood there rubbing his hand over Kurt's back, letting him cry, he didn't want to tell him everything would be ok because Blaine didn't know if it would be.
"You let it Kurt, I'm here," he whispered against Kurt's temple, placing a soft kiss there every few seconds, "I'm here," was all Blaine could bring himself to say.
"I need to go back to Ohio," Kurt finally said after a few good solid minutes of crying, Blaine nodded, his grip still tight around Kurt's shoulders.
"Ok, let's get you back to your place so you can pack," Kurt just nodded as he moved away from Blaine and wiped his eyes again.
"I need some water," he stated as he moved out of Blaine's bedroom and into the kitchen. Blaine took the opportunity to throw a few things into his shoulder bag and follow after Kurt.
"Come on, let's get you home," he said as he took Kurt's hand and kissed him on the cheek before leading him out onto the street and hailing a cab.
