Kurt woke up, seeing Blaine on the couch as he sat on the chair opposite of it. He got up silently and laid a blanket over his soundless body. He started walking to his bedroom when he heard someone clear their throat. He turned around, his expression surprised and confused.

"Kurt." Rachel said quietly, waving her hand for him to sit on her bed. Kurt hesitated a bit, but walked slowly and sat down, crossing his legs. "Why is Blaine here?" She said a bit above a whisper.

"He was having problems with Nick.." Kurt said like it was nothing.

"And...?" Rachel said, insisting Kurt to finish the story.

"Not much to tell." Kurt shrugged.

"So hes just sleeping on our couch." Rachel said plainly.

"He needed a place to stay, so I let him stay here. Nothing is wrong about it. What if it was I dont know, Sam or someone. Youd be fine with it." Kurt agrued.

"Kurt, stop hiding it. Its in your eyes when you stare at him. At the party, as drunk as I was, I could see that abandoned look as you and him broke the kiss. I saw the way you used Adam, even though you think he used you, which he sort of did. Kurt, as your best friend, you need to stop. Hes engaged." Rachel said quietly scolding.

"I-I dont know what youre talking about. Nothing is going to happen. Adams a dick, and Im going to bed." Kurt said standing up and rushing out. He pulled his curtian closed and sat on the edge of his bed, thinking.

Blaine was scared. More scared than he could imagine. He knew he was always gay, but admitting it to his parents and Cooper, that was one thing he didnt think he could confess. He walked down the stairs carefully, ready to present the information at dinner.

He sat down, slowly grabbing his fork and picking at his food. He abruptly put it down, loudly on accident, all eyes were on him.

Blaine looked up, "Im gay." he blurted out quickly, gazing back at his food.

A silence passed as he heard a fork hitting a plate loudly. He slowly looked up to see his brother fuming. His Dad tried to calm Cooper down. Cooper was very religious, very, hed know he wouldnt have approved. He looked scared as his mom and dad tried to make Cooper calm down.

"You- youre worthless! A sin! I helped you through all of the things you went through as a kid! I was working with the devil!" Cooper began to exclaim, reaching across the table. Blaine got up quickly and cowered, trying to avoid Coopers words.

"Blaine, sweetie go upstairs." His mom said over Coopers loudly.

"Worthless! I tell you, a piece of shit!" He heard Coopers yells fading as he rushed up stairs, locking his door.

Blaine woke up, shivering, remembering that day. He felt tears stinging in his eyes. He hasnt talked to Cooper in forever, he moved to Hollywood to get away from the whole Anderson family, as they were considered a disgrace for being okay with Blaines sexuality. He buried his head into a pillow, sobbing quietly, wanting to see his brother again. He remembered Nicks words, echoing in his head along with Coopers. 

"Blaine.." He looked up, his face red. Kurt sighed sadly and sat on the couch arm. Blaine buried his face back into the pillow. Kurt didnt know what to do, well, he did but he didnt know where the line was drawn for comforting Blaine. Where it was considered friendly or flirtatious. He tried his best with soothing words. "Hey, hey, Blaine, look at me." Blaine raised his head slightly. Kurt tried to find words, but he couldnt. 

"Kurt." Blaine said, filling in the silence. "I just really need a hug." He sighed. Kurt got up and hugged Blaine tightly. Blaine buried his head in Kurts shoulder, feeling a couple tears fall. Kurt rubbed Blaines back as an instinct. He kept repeating, "Its okay." in his ear. 

He was now furious at Nick for putting Blaine in this state. He wondered if Blaine ever talked about his exprience with Cooper with Nick. He pulled away, "Alright, Im ending this pity fest. Blaine, get your coat, were going out." Blaine was shocked at first, but got up slowly and washed his face. He put on his jacket. Even if it was 3am, they walked in the night to the nearest bar.

Kurt looked through his wallet looking for his fake ID, even though it looked nothing like him. He nudged Blaine to get his out. They walked in a showed the bouncer their IDs. The bouncer looked unsure and finally said, "Go ahead." Kurt and Blaine exchanged a smile, even though Blaines was weak. 

They sat at the bar. Blaine ordered a beer as Kurt simply got a shirley temple. Blaine began to get out his wallet to pay, but Kurt stopped him and paid. Blaine nodded slowly, trying to still understand why they were out. He took a drink of his beverage looking around. Kurt took a glance at Blaine. He still looked upset, he didnt blame him.

"Blaine, lets forget about the past tonight, alright?" Kurt said, making sure to grab Blaines attention.

"But," Blaine started, but Kurt interrupted him.

"Come on, dance with me." Kurt said, grabbing Blaines hand pulling him to the dancefloor. Kurt gave Blaine a resurring smile as he twirled Blaine and began to dance. 

Kurt watched as Blaine slowly loosened up. The hours passed as Blaine drank more and more. Kurt decided to slow down on the drinks to be decently sober. Kurt laughed as Blaine began rambling on and on about random things.

"Did, Kurt, hey, did-did you know that bananas, yeah, bananas, are berries? Weird am I right?" He leaned into Kurt, trying to regain balance. Kurt laughed and patted Blaine on the back. 

"Thats great, Blaine." Kurt couldnt stop grinning at his drunken presence.

"Oh, oh, and did you know, that, ha, youre, yeah you, are really, really, I mean, really, cute." Blaine slurred, looking up at Kurt. Kurt was taken back and blushed slightly. He patted his back again slowly. 

"Alright.. How about we head home, yeah?" Kurt asked, still supporting Blaine. Blaine nodded. Kurt linked his arm through Blaines to hold him up as they walked back to Kurts apartment. Blaine kept saying weird slurring sentences as they made their way down the street. A dim light was appearing in the east, as the sun began to rise with it being almost 6am. 

Kurt unlocked his apartment door and Blaine ran in whooping about the night. Kurt tried to shush him, but Blaine kept whooping.

"We just partied!" Blaine yelled.

"Blaine, shh! Rachel is sleeping, she has class early tomorrow." Blaine looked at Kurt and laughed non-stop. Kurt couldnt help, since Blaines laugh was very contagious. He joined in, as Rachel appeared in the hallway.

"Kurt." She hissed. Kurt tried to apologize, but Blaine tackled Kurt. Rachel huffed and crossed her arms, storming to her room. 

Kurt pushed Blaine off him and shut the apartment door before they woke others around them. "Alright, Blaine, I think its time to sleep, yeah?" Kurt asked, motioning Blaine to the couch. Blaine nodded and laid down, pulling Kurt with him.

"No, no, Blaine." Kurt said, getting up and brushing off his clothes. "By ourselves."

Blaine whined and pulled the blanket to his shoulders. "Kurt, come here." Blaine said, while Kurt started to go to his room. Kurt turned around and walked to him, sitting on the couch arm. "Make it quick." Kurt said, feeling tired from tonight.

"Just, just- come here." Blaine said again. Kurt got on his knees and leaned on the couch arm. Blaine motioned him to come closer. Kurt stayed where he was. 

"Just tell me right here, Blaine." Kurt suggested.

"But its secret." Blaine whispered loudly, his breath reaking of alcohol. Kurt gave up and leaned in. Blaine acted and kissed Kurt. Kurt was surprised, but didnt pull back. He closed his eyes as Blaine scooted up the couch and kissed him deeper. Kurt whimpered as he pulled back. "Goodnight." Blaine whispered as he turned his head, laying down. 

Kurt stood in shock as he brought his hand to his lips. He got up slowly and headed to his room, still silent. He quietly got into his pajamas, glad for having late classes tomorrow. He laid down, staring at the ceiling.
