"Um, Dad?" Kurt asked, standing awkwardly in the doorway.
"Yeah?" Burt didn't look up from the TV.
"Can I...um...can you turn that down a minute or something?" Kurt slowly went to sit down on the sofa beside Burt's recliner.
Burt turned off the TV with a worried expression planted on his face.
"Kurt? What's wrong? What happened?" Did Blaine-" Kurt cut him off.
"No! Blaine didn't do anything! But it does have something to do with him though." When Burt didn't respond, Kurt went on.
"Um...so Blaine...and I...are..um...now...boyfriends." Kurt looked down at his hands as if they were the most interesting things in the world, while his face was going bright red. He really didn't know how to tell his dad that he had a boyfriend!
"Why were you so nervous to tell me? I'm your dad you can tell me stuff" Kurt nodded and was about to respond when a look washed over Burt's face, it was a look of realization.
"You were up there" Burt pointed to the ceiling, indicating Kurt's room, "With your boyfriend? Without me knowing? Without the door open?" It took Kurt a moment before he caught on to what Burt was insinuating.
"What? NO! Dad, ew no! nothing like that happened! We only just got together! We were watching a movie and I fell asleep, I woke up from a bad dream, where Karofsky was chasing me and I woke up, I told you that yeah? Well anyway, I told Blaine about it and then we became boyfriends, I'm not sure you want to know details? Yeah that's what I thought," Burt shook his head when asked if he wanted to know the details," And then Blaine had to go, and now I'm telling you, sooo yeah."
Kurt finally took a much needed breathe after telling the story at such a fast pace. Burt took a moment to let this information wash over him.
"But just remind me, when did you meet him? How many days ago?" Kurt thought for a few minutes before answering slowly.
"3 or 4 days..." Kurt just realized how little time he'd known Blaine.
"Do you know a lot about each other?" Kurt answered this instantly.
"Yeah, basically everything really." Burt wondered if this was true but then remembered his son physically could not lie.
"Most importantly, does he make you happy?" Kurt couldn't believe how understanding his father was being.
"Extremely." Kurt said firmly. Burt smiled.
"Well then if he makes you happy then I like him, and he does seem like a good guy, and really formal!" Kurt chuckled,
"Yeah, but that's probably because he goes to a private boarding school." Burt nodded in understanding.
"Aw okay, I like that though, good manners." Kurt grinned, Burt actually liked his boyfriend!
"Why don't you bring him round for dinner tomorrow?" Kurt's eyes looked like stars when Burt suggested this.
"Can I?" Burt nodded.
"Yeah I wanna talk with him." Burt smiled, but Kurt saw an alterer motive behind his niceness.
"What kind of a talk?" Kurt asked cautiously.
"Oh, you know, if you hurt my son, I'll hunt you down, you know the usual." Kurt was not expecting that.
"Dad! You can't say that! Don't scare him away!" Burt shrugged.
"I'm only giving him fair warning." Kurt was going to argue when his Dad suddenly hugged him. Kurt hugged back instinctively but still wondered what it was for. So when they broke away after a few moments, he asked and Burt replied gruffly.
"I just didn't want you to grow up so fast. I wanted you to be my little boy for just a little bit longer." Kurt couldn't say anything because of the lump in his throat so he hugged his dad instead, which Burt instantly reciprocated.
They were interrupted by the bell.
"I'll get it, if this only just happened I'm guessing you'll want to call Mercedes?" Kurt looked at his dad, 'how did he know exactly what I need to do?'
"Go on, I know you want to" Burt gently pushed Kurt up the stairs before going to get the door. Kurt sprinted up the stairs and into his room, only getting a catch of the conversation downstairs, it was Carol at the door, she forgot her key.
But Kurt didn't honestly care about that, all he cared about was relaying the events of the afternoon to Mercedes, and that he did.
Meanwhile, happening to Blaine.
When Blaine got back to Dalton, he had a spring in his step and humming a random, happy tune. He was going to his room but as he passed the common room, Wes, David,Nick and Jeff all came out, Bumping into Blaine.
"Hey Blainers! How's Kurtie?" Asked Wes.
"He's...amazing" Blaine replied breathily.
"Blaine? What happened? Why are you all...like...well, this?" Nick asked, all his friends evidently sharing his concern from the nods of their heads.
"I kissed him." Blaine grinned.
"You what?" His friends were all dumbfounded.
"I kissed him!" Blaine said a little louder. "I kissed Kurt!" Blaine was bouncing from foot to foot.
"What did he do?" His friends were delighted for him but wondered how Kurt took it.
"He kissed me back!" There was a cheer, not only from the four boys in front of him, but from inside the common room too.
Blaine looked inside to see most of the warblers sitting in there, grinning.
There were outbursts of "Awesome man!" and "Go get some!" from all his friends, Blaine was only half paying attention, he was still thinking of his first kiss, his first kiss with Kurt. Still thinking of how soft his lips were,how he tasted of coffee and something so amazingly Kurt. How he smelt of coconut and vanilla. How perfect looked, how he blu-
"Earth to Blaine!" Thad was trying to get Blaine's attention back because he had just zoned out.
"Wha- yeah? oh um sorry." Blaine smiled sheepishly.
"Mmm I'm sure you are. I was asking are you two together now?" Trent asked looking at his smaller friend curiously.
"Yeah we are!" Blaine said jumping up and down like a child on christmas morning.
There was another uproar of cheers.
"Okay everyone SHH! Blaine tell us everything!" Nick said eagerly, clasping his hands together. The only one who didn't look at Nick like he had horns was Jeff, Jeff just nodded eagerly and looked expectantly at Blaine, ready for him to start.
"Nick? You sure you're not a 13 year old girl?" Blaine asked in an amused voice. Nick looked around his friends staring at him.
"What?" Nick asked.
"Blaine has a point there Nick! But yeah Blaine tell us come on!" Wes dragged Blaine over to the sofa and the warblers followed suit.
They all sat around Blaine, listening to him as he animately re-told the events of that night. Each of his friends were so happy for him, he'd waited so long for someone special, and now, he'd found him.
Good night boyfriend ;) - K xxxxxxxx

Both boys went to bed after an exceedingly long conversation about how amazing it was to be able to call each other that.
They both had a huge smile on their face as they got into their respective beds, both with the other on their mind.
