Chapter 11

“Blaine… stop” Kurt breathes out, but runs his hands into the warm water and down Blaine's legs.

He has tried to make them stop many times now, but it never worked, Blaine would kiss his neck or run his hands down Kurt's body and he would forget why they needed to stop.

But this time, they were going to stop. After what happened yesterday, they can't do this anymore. It's not right for any of them and it's too much for Kurt.

“Blaine” Kurt says again and pushes him slightly away.

“No” he responds and tries to kiss Kurt again.

Kurt tilts his head back so Blaine's lips misses. Blaine looks up at Kurt and he looks back.

“I'm sorry” Blaine mumbles when realization hits. He looks away.

Kurt tries not to look at Blaine, seeing him hurt will only make him weak and make him give in. He can't do this. He wants to, but he can't. They aren't together anymore and Blaine made it really clear he doesn't want to be with him. But why did he come here then? Why did he kiss Kurt if he doesn't want him anymore? Is there a chance it was just too much at once so he said something he didn't mean? No, he can't think like this. Blaine doesn't trust him or want him that way. But he needs to know…

“Why did you come here?” he says softly, trying to hide his feelings.

Blaine swallows and looks at Kurt again, “because you're the only one who will understand how this feels.”

Kurt is happy Blaine came to him, but a part of him is disappointed there wasn't another reason.

“That's the only reason?” Kurt can't resist asking.

It takes a few seconds before Blaine nods.

Kurt nods too and gets out of the bathtub, not enjoying the hot water anymore.

“Where are you going?” Blaine asks, wincing of the new sitting position.

“I can't do this, Blaine” Kurt says and finds a towel, drying himself, “you might think it's okay to toy with someone else's feelings, but I'm not going to let you do that to me.”

Blaine gets out with some struggle and Kurt throws him another towel.

“I'm the one who toys with people? Are you forgetting who you are?”

Kurt doesn't respond. Yeah, he knows how he used to be and yes, he toyed with a lot of peoples feeling, but not with Blaine. He would never do that to Blaine.

“I'm sorry” Blaine says, “I don't know what I'm doing”

“Well I guess you have to figure out what you want, alone, because I'm not doing this anymore. I know what I feel for you, but you clearly don't know what you feel for me. I'm opened myself up to you, which you know I never do, so now it's your turn. You know where the door is”

Kurt walks out of the bathroom and leaves Blaine behind.

He feels bad for leaving Blaine behind in the condition he is, but like he said to Blaine, he can't do this anymore. He needs some space.

Xx

After Blaine left, Kurt doesn't come out of his room. He plays the guitar and he thinks he finally has something to write about. The lyrics are the most difficult part, he has never been good with words.

Kurt doesn't eat any dinner, not feeling hungry. And after sitting on his computer doing nothing special for a few hours, he goes to bed. He doesn't fall asleep though.

A part of him wants to call Blaine and talk, but another part of him forces him to stay away. Kurt wants Blaine back, but he shouldn't want that. Blaine is confused and Kurt needs to give him time. And he doesn't want to forgive Blaine. They both did something wrong, he knows that, but Kurt isn't just going to forget it all and be with Blaine.

Blaine doesn't even know if he wants to be with Kurt! He can't think about getting back together with Blaine, because it's not going to happen. Trusting Kurt or not, Blaine isn't sure who he likes. And Kurt is not going to be an experience anymore.

His thoughts wonder to Dylan. He understands him more now, he understands them all. Kurt used to just sleep around and not care how any of them felt, but now with what happened with Blaine, he feels really bad about everything he has done. How many he must have hurt. He is sure many of them knew exactly how it worked and didn't feel anything from one night stand, but with Dylan it's different. They are in the band together so they see each other a lot there and they have slept together a few times now. No wonder things got more complicated than

what it was supposed to be. But they are friends now and that's the way it should be. Kurt is done using guys like he used to do and like Blaine did with him.

Xx

Kurt opens his locker, ignoring all the looks he is getting from everyone. No one is talking to him though, probably too scared to try, but the looks still annoy him. He isn't sure why he opened his locker, he doesn't need anything. He shuts the locker and starts walking towards class. Kurt doesn't feel like going to class right now, but he doesn't really have a choice. Also he really doesn't want to see Blaine ashe isn't sure what he will do if he meets him.

A little brunette steps in his way and Kurt knows who it is. Rachel, Blaine's ex. He has never talked to her before, but that was nothing he wished for. Blaine told him she was fine with everything, so there was no point in talking to her. But now, there is a problem and of course she knows about it and coming over to Kurt to blame him.

“What can I help you with?” Kurt asks, raising and eyebrow at her, “and before you ask; no, I didn't beat up Blaine”

“I know you didn't” Rachel says and looks around them, “can we talk somewhere?”

“Why?” Kurt asks, keeping his eyes on her, hoping she will give away what is going on. Nothing gives away though.

She looks up at him and gives him an obvious look. Kurt sighs and walks into an empty classroom.

Rachel closes the door and turns to look at Kurt.

“You hurt him badly and I knew it would happen, but I need your help”

“First off, I know I did, but he hurt me even more” Rachel looks confused, “you should get all the information before you start accusing” Kurt says and lights up a cigarette.

“You can't smoke in here!” She says and looks at him shocked.

“I know” Kurt says and blows out some smoke before putting it between his lips again.

Rachel looks at him disgusted, “I need your help” she says again.

“No thank you”

“What? Why? You don't even know what I'm going to ask you!”

“Does it have something to do with Blaine?” Kurt asks, knowing the answer.

“Yes” Rachel says and nods.

“Then my answer is no”

Rachel sighs, “this is important, you know what happened yesterday and I'm scared of what will happen next”

She has a point. Kurt doesn't want Blaine to get more hurt, however Kurt feels right now. As much as he hates to say it, Rachel is right.

“Fine, I'll talk to the football guys”

“Good and remember to say that Blaine has to come back on the football team”

“Does he want that?”

“Of course!” Rachel says, but Kurt knows she hasn't asked him.

Kurt nods and throws the cigarette on the floor. Rachel is about to say something but changes her mind.

Kurt walks out and towards class. He can't wait to talk to the football team, maybe he can throw in some punches too. He needs to get his anger out somehow.

oooo

He doesn't want to go to school. He never wants to go back. He only has Rachel left and he will probably lose her too. What is the point? His life is over. He can't live a life where there are always someone going to say offensive things to him or even worse, hurts him.

Blaine can't go to school again, it's too scary. The football team will hurt him again and he still looks awful from last night. He knows that they will do this every time they see him. What is he going to do?

He went home instead of going to school. Cooper isn't home and neither are his parents, thankfully. He has a few hours to think of an explanation of what happened to him.

Blaine falls asleep and wakes up an hour later. It's still quiet in the house. Blaine walks down to the kitchen and gets some breakfast. Maybe he can eat something now. He tries to take a bite of an apple, but it doesn't work. It's too hurtful to swallow. Only opening his mouth hurts. Maybe soup will work.

Before he can begin making soup, the doorbell rings. Blaine panics. He shouldn't open the door; the person on the other side of the door will see him like this. The doorbell rings again and Blaine walks over to the door. He should open the door in case there is something important. And what if it's Kurt…? Probably not, but what if?

Blaine opens the door and is surprised to see Nathan standing there. He looks at Blaine with a worried and sad look.

“Nathan? What are you doing here?”

“Sorry, I didn't see you at school and I heard about what happened, so I had to see if you were okay”

Blaine smiles a little and invites him inside, “that's nice of you, thanks”

Nathan nods and walks inside. They sit in the kitchen and Blaine makes soup for them. They talk a little about what happened to Blaine, but not much since he doesn't like talking about it.

“Are you alone?” Nathan asks.

Blaine nods, “yeah, I usually am”

“Where are your parents?”

“Probably work”

Nathan nods and they start to eat. It's easier than an apple, but it still hurts to swallow. He eats some though so that's good.

“Do you like watching movies?” Nathan asks with a smile.

“Shouldn't you be at school?” Blaine grins.

Nathan smiles, “I would rather be here”

Blaine smiles, but inside he is repeating Nathan words over and over. What does he mean by that?

“Yes, I like movies” Blaine answers his question.

“Good, let's watch one”

Blaine smiles, “okay, what do you want to see?”

“I like everything”

They look through the movies and decide to watch 12 years a slave. They haven't seen it before.

They have watched an hour in silence now. They are sitting on the couch, Blaine leaning against Nathan slightly, so their shoulders a touching, since that's the only comfortable position he could find.

“Are you okay?” Nathan suddenly whispers.

Blaine looks up at him and is surprised to see him so close, “yeah, why?”

“Have you looked at yourself?” he asks.

Blaine remembers standing in Kurt's bathroom, naked, and seeing himself in the mirror. He looks horrible.

Blaine nods and looks away.

“Sorry didn't mean it like that; I guess I'm just worried.”

“I'm fine” Blaine mumbles, looking at the movie.

“What about you and Kurt?” Nathan asks carefully.

Blaine stops breathing for a second, shocked that Nathan mentioned Kurt. He isn't supposed to ask about him! No one is supposed to know about them!

“It was nothing, it was stupid.” Blaine says and can feel Nathan nod.

“Sorry I asked”

“Why did you ask?” Blaine looks up at him.

Nathan opens his mouth to say something but stops. He does this for a few times before finally saying something.

“I just… wanted to make sure…”

Blaine frowns, “what do you mean?”

Nathan looks into Blaine's eyes and suddenly he is moving closer.

Holy shit! What is he doing?

Blaine freaks out, but he doesn't move. What is he supposed to do now? Let him do it or push him away? He can't lead him on.

Nathan's soft lips touches his and Blaine can't move. Nathan moves his lips slightly and Blaine pulls slowly away, hating he has to do this.

“Nathan… I can't”

“Why not?” he asks, moving closer on the couch, “do you really not feel anything?”

“I…”

“Is this is about Kurt? If it is, you know I'm better than him. I'll treat you right”

Blaine shakes his head, “it's not about him, it's about me. I'm not… like you”

Nathan frowns, “What? But the picture? Weren't you about to sleep with Kurt?”

About to? Is that what people think?

“It was a mistake, I just needed to try it. I had a girlfriend.”

“That doesn't mean you're not gay, you can like both.”

“I know, but… I'm not”

“You're not gay? Or you don't want to be gay?”

“Stop saying that…”

“So you didn't feel anything when I kissed you? Or with… with Kurt?”

Blaine thinks about this. When Nathan kissed him he was just really shocked that he didn't think about how it felt. With Kurt though, he did feel something. He felt a lot. He has never felt anything like that before, but he can't do anything about it. He can't be gay!

“Blaine… I'm sorry, I shouldn't push this.”

“How do you know?” Blaine asks.

Nathan looks down, “because of you” he mumbles.

“What do you mean?”

Nathan looks up again, “because I've never felt anything like I feel with you. You're so easy to talk to and I feel good around you. That's what matters right? Someone you can be yourself around and be safe. Someone you trust.”

Blaine isn't sure how to respond. Nathan has feelings for Blaine and he can't return them. Well he doesn't think he can, he has never thought about it before.

Like Nathan said, he will probably treat him better than Kurt did at times, but when he hears how Nathan knows he likes Blaine. He doesn't feel that way about Nathan, but for Kurt… Yeah he does. He felt good around him and safe. He needs to work with the trust though, but they both need to get better, they both made mistakes.

“I'm sorry Nathan, but I don't feel that way about you. But I can't lose you as my friend, you and Rachel are the only ones I'vegot. I'm sorry, I'm just really confused and I don't want to hurt you.

Nathan nods, “It's fine and you're not losing me.”

“You sure?”

Nathan smiles, but it doesn't reach his eyes, “I'll be okay”

Blaine nods and hugs him. He needs to clear his head.

“I'm really tired, do you mind? Sorry to kick you out like this”

“Oh no of course not, I'll see you later”

Blaine smiles and follows Nathan to the door, even though Nathan insisted he shouldn't move.

“Thanks for coming, it means a lot”

Nathan smiles a little and nods, “see you later”

“Bye”

Xx

Blaine sits in a chair, with a lot of pillows to make him comfortable, on the porch looking at two birds on the grass searching for food.

The talk with Nathan really got him thinking. Maybe he just needs to be honest with himself and everyone else for once. He can't keep going like this anymore. It's better to live an honest life, even if that will make it hard, than living a lie. Right?

First thing he needs to do is find out if he is gay or not. It's nothing to find out, Blaine knows, but something he needs to accept it. That will happen in time, he just needs to know that he is.

Blaine Anderson is gay.

Blaine lets out a breath and feels like crying. He is gay. What is he going to do? He can't do this, he will get beaten up all the time and live a miserable life.

No, it won't be a miserable life. He can be happy, someday. He just can't give up. Blaine sighs and thinks about Kurt. What is he going to do? They need to talk, that's for sure. But what is he going to say? You know I said I wasn't gay? Well after Nathan kissed me, I found out I was and now I want to be with you again. No he can defiantly not say that.

Blaine sends a text to Kurt. He just needs to talk to him, try fixing everything that is lost. Kurt sends a text back and fifteen minutes later, Kurt comes out on the porch. Blaine looks at him and doesn't know what to say.

“Are you okay?” Kurt asks, standing with his hands in his pockets.

Blaine stands up and walks closer, “I'm scared”

“Of what?” Kurt asks, looking worried, “if you mean the football team, I've talked to them. You don't need to worry about them”

Blaine frowns, “what did you tell them?”

“Don't worry about that”

Blaine is about to push it further, but that wasn't what he wanted to talk about, “I'm not scared about them. Well I am, but that isn't what I mean.” Blaine looks down, “I'm scared of you, and me”

“What do you mean?” Kurt almost whispers.

Blaine looks up, “I'm sorry for what I said, you weren't just an experience. I just didn't want to admit what I really feel, but I know that now. I like you Kurt and that means… that means I'm g-gay”

“I'm glad you know that now” Kurt says with a nod, but that isn't the respond Blaine wants.

Blaine smiles though and moves closer. Kurt pulls back and shakes his head.

“Blaine, we can't”

“Why? I just told you that I'm sorry and that I want to be with you. What's the problem?”

“You might have forgiven me and yourself, but I haven't forgiven you. I'm sorry, but I can't just be with you again when you think you know what you want.” “I do know what I want”

Kurt shakes his head, “no you don't. I don't know what I want. Blaine, I've been hiding behind alcohol and sex for a long time. You are the first person I really let in after my mom died and you hurt me. I'm not ready… And I'm not going to sleep around anymore, but I'm not getting back with you either. I'm going to focus on the music for a while now.”

Blaine tries to breathe and not think about the tears almost spilling out. He manages to give Kurt a nod before he has to look away so he doesn't see how hurt he is.

“We can be friends though and I'm here for you, always. I know how hard it is to come out.”

Blaine doesn't say anything, not trusting his voice.

“I'm sorry” Kurt says and hugs Blaine, kissing his cheek before turning around to leave.

Kurt stops though so Blaine looks up; hating that he still has a little hope. He gets disappointed again though when he sees it's just Cooper standing in the door. Kurt walks past Cooper and over to the front door.

“What's going on?” Cooper asks, clearly seeing Blaine is about to cry.

Blaine just shakes his head and walks as quickly he can to his room. He carefully lies down on the bed - which feels so stupid when he just wants to fall down on it, face first - and lets the tears run over the edge.

oooo

Kurt kicks a rock hard before getting inside the car and drives. He doesn't know where he is going, but he needs to get away.

A part of him just wants to turn around the car and go back to Blaine. Kurt misses him, but he needs a break. Like he said he will support Blaine and if something happens with the football team he will be there. He did talk to them like he said to Blaine, but they didn't promise

anything. They laughed when Kurt asked them to stay away. He got them to shut up quickly though. Kurt is sure they won't bother Blaine at school, but he not sure about football.

Kurt drives to a coffee shop and gets a coffee. He sits down and looks out of the window. For the first time he actually feel pretty good. He is sad about Blaine of course, but for some reason, it feels good to let him go for a little while. He just needs a little break, Blaine knows that right? He will forgive him eventually. He just need some time alone with music.

Xx

Kurt opens his eyes and looks at the clock. It's too early to wake up, it's only 10am, but Kurt gets up. He shivers and quickly finds some clothes to put on. It's the last day of the Christmas holiday.

It's been almost three months since Kurt and Blaine really ended their relationship. In the beginning they didn't talk much to each other; maybe a ‘hello' in the morning, but nothing more. But last month, they started to talk more again and they have gotten much closer. Kurt feels like he knows Blaine much better now. Blaine is doing better too with everything that happened. Of course the football team and some others look at him with disgusted looks, but that will never stop. He has come to terms with who he is and he looks happier for it. It really helped to talk to the football team like he told Rachel he would do. Blaine didn't continue with football though. He said it never really was his thing. He is in the glee club now, god knows why. But if he likes it, Kurt is happy for him. It looks like he has gotten some good friends too. He spends a lot of time with Rachel and some others from the club.

The band is doing really well. Quinn wrote a few really good songs for the band, Kurt tried to write one too but he felt it wasn't good so he didn't show anyone. They still play every Friday and Blaine comes every time. In the beginning, Kurt tried not to care, but now he can't imagine going on stage without knowing Blaine is there.

. Kurt starts working on some new songs and decides it's not that bad. He isn't sure he will show it to anyone though, it's really personal. He has been working on it since he and Blaine broke up. They have started to record some songs in a studio too and is soon ready to give out a song. Their first single. It's so amazing and surreal.

Kurt wasn't sure if he wanted this in the start, but now he knows. He really love playing in the band and record music. And it's going to be amazing when school is over and they can move to LA. Maybe they will go on tour.

Jace is a really cool guy, he and Kurt has gotten much closer in these past months. Kurt isn't sure why he hated Jace in the start, but when he got to know him, he can't say a bad word about him. He still hasn't told anyone that he can sing though. He isn't ready yet, but if he ever write a song that is good enough, he will sing it. That's a promise.

The doorbell rings and Kurt quickly puts on something warm. He runs down and opens the door.

“Blaine? What are you doing here?” Kurt frowns, but let's Blaine inside.

Kurt brushes some of the snow off of Blaine's jacket and waits for an answer.

“Sorry to just come here without calling” Blaine says, taking off his jacket and shoes.

“It's fine, are you okay?”

Blaine nods, “yeah, I just wanted to see you”

“Oh, okay” Kurt smiles, getting warm.

He knows he have to tell Blaine he wants him back, but what if it's too late? What if Blaine has moved on? He needs to tell him though, he needs to know.

“Have you eaten?” Kurt asks and walks into the kitchen.

“Yeah, I just ate”

Kurt finds something to eat and they walk up to Kurt's room.

“Where are the others?” Blaine asks.

Blaine and Burt has actually gotten really good friends. They watch the football games together a lot and Blaine has even made dinner with Carol a few times. Kurt does that too a lot. Carol and Finn moved in almost two months ago and they are now living in a bigger house. Kurt and Finn are getting more along, but Kurt is still a little skeptical about all this. Burt is happy though, so that's the most important thing.

“Dad and Carol are working and Finn is with Rachel”

Blaine nods and looks at Kurt. Wait a minute, Kurt knows that look. Is he misunderstanding this, or does Blaine want the same thing? When Blaine scoops a little closer, his look getting more intense, Kurt knows he isn't imagining this.

Kurt puts away his plate and looks back at Blaine. It only takes a few seconds before they quickly move closer and kiss each other. Blaine gets on top of Kurt and kisses him greedy. Kurt gasp for air, not wanting to stop kissing Blaine.

“Sorry, I just had to-to do that” Blaine says breathlessly, sitting in Kurt's lap.

“Don't apologize”

“I know you said we couldn't be together, but I can't stay away, Kurt, I need you, I love you”

Kurt's mouth drops, “w-what?”

Blaine blushes, biting his lip, “I think you heard me”

When the words sink in, Kurt grins at Blaine, “I don't think I did”

Blaine rolls his eyes and whispers softly, “I love you”

“I love you too” Kurt whispers back.

Blaine smiles too and kisses Kurt again. They quickly get their clothes off and Blaine rocks his hips into Kurt's lap. Kurt moans loudly, not believing how long it's been since he has been close to anyone. He has missed it. He has missed Blaine.

“I need you” Kurt moan out, running his hands down Blaine's warm back.

Blaine tugs in Kurt's hair, “what do you want?”

Kurt falls down on his back on the bed, looking up at Blaine. Is he ready? They love each other, of course he is.

“I want you” Kurt kisses Blaine, “inside me”

Blaine looks at Kurt, “are you sure?”

Kurt nods and kisses Blaine again, “if you want of course”

Blaine nods and carefully pushes in one finger, Kurt gasps. It doesn't take long before Blaine is pushing in two fingers. Kurt is sucking on Blaine's neck, occasionally gasping or moaning.

“Now” Kurt mumbles and Blaine pulls out his three fingers.

He finds a condom and puts it on. Kurt spread his legs more apart and stops breathing when he feels the tip of Blaine move inside. Kurt let's his breath go and breathes heavily.

When Blaine is completely inside, Kurt gets used to it for a little while, before Blaine starts to move slowly.

“Ahhh god” Kurt moans out and moves his hips too.

Blaine goes a little faster, moaning loudly, and Kurt closes his eyes, concentrating on this amazing feeling. He has never felt like this when he has slept with people. Not with Blaine either. It's different when someone is doing it to you, completely different feeling. He always felt close with Blaine, but never this close. Maybe that was why he never got any feelings involved, but the guys he slept with did because of the closeness. He can understand that.

Kurt opens his eyes and looks into Blaine. Yeah, he can totally understand that.

Blaine kisses Kurt softly, moving his hips slowly. It's perfect, Kurt doesn't want it harder or faster, he wants love. They are making love, as stupid as that sounds. It's supposed to be just like this.

Kurt never thought this was possible, to love someone like this. At least not after his mom.

Blaine stops suddenly and Kurt comes back, “what?”

“Am I hurting you?” Blaine asks worried, pulling away.

Kurt sits up, “what, why-“

Kurt feels cold water on his cheeks and realizes he's been crying.

“Oh, no Blaine, I'm not hurting. I was just thinking about something”

Blaine frowns, that didn't help.

Kurt moves closer again and kisses Blaine, “I was thinking how perfect and happy I am right now because I didn't think I would ever be this lucky”

“Oh…” Blaine says surprised, “I'm sorry”

Kurt shakes his head and kisses Blaine again. He moves into Blaine's lap and Blaine enters him again. Kurt gasps, hugging Blaine tightly. He bits his lip and moves his lips slightly. Blaine kisses his chest and neck, sucking on Kurt's tattoo just as he likes it. Kurt gasps again, holding Blaine and moving his hips slowly. Blaine's hands moves around his body like fingers, down his back, down his legs, over his chest.

Kurt needs more, everything is making him crazy and he needs to let go soon.

“Blaine” Kurt moans and moves his hips faster.

Blaine moans, tilting his head back, exposing his neck with a big red mark on it. Kurt kisses it a few times before kissing Blaine again, tongues and teeth all together.

Kurt moves a little faster, sweat dripping, and his legs starts to shake slightly.

“Ahh” Blaine moans and touches Kurt's cock.

Kurt stops completely and looks down at Blaine's hand moving quickly. Blaine thrust inside Kurt and Kurt's body shakes as he comes.

“Ohh fucckk” Kurt shouts out.

Blaine moans loudly as he comes too.

They sit like this for a little while, breathing heavily and getting over the bliss. Kurt falls down on the bed and snuggles into Blaine's side.

“Shit, that was amazing” Kurt chuckles and kisses Blaine's sweaty chest.

Blaine makes a sound of approval, clearly exhausted. But Kurt isn't done just yet though. He doesn't think he can ever get enough of this. He moves on top of Blaine again, kissing up his chest and to his neck, sucking on the same place as before. He can feel Blaine stop breathing for a second.

“nooo, sleep”

Kurt chuckles, “it's only 11am”

Blaine makes a sound before he goes back to sleeping. Why does he have to get so sleepy after sex? Kurt wants more.

Kurt kisses his neck more and whispers, “We still got that bathtub”

Blaine doesn't say anything so Kurt looks up at him. He sighs. He isn't giving up though. He starts touching Blaine's cock. This wakes him up

“Kurt! What are you-oh…”

Kurt grins and pumps a little before lying on top of Blaine again. Blaine kisses him and thrust his hips up.

“So what about that bathtub?” Kurt grins.

“What bathtub?” Blaine asks confused.

Kurt rolls his eyes before getting out of the bed and into the bathroom. He fills the bathtub with hot water and some bubble soap. Blaine comes in and lifts an eyebrow.

“What are you doing?” he asks.

Kurt smiles and wraps his arms around Blaine's neck. They kiss softly.

“Let's get in”

This reminds Kurt of last time they were here. Blaine was hurt and they sat in the bathtub. Kurt stops Blaine last time when he kisses him, but that isn't happening this time.

Kurt is the one lying in Blaine's arms this time though. It's nice and relaxing. Blaine is still a little hard though and so is Kurt, which is distracting. Kurt tilts his head up against Blaine's chest and they kiss each other.

“So how is the song going?”

Kurt rests his head against Blaine's chest and shrugs, “I don't know, it's hard”

“Can I hear it?” Blaine asks, circling his finger on Kurt's chest, drawing figures.

“No, it's not good”

“Please?” Blaine pleads, kissing Kurt's neck.

Kurt shakes his head with a smile, “maybe”

“I'll take that as a yes”

Kurt chuckles and sighs at this good feeling. They lay like this for a while, the water is getting colder and the bubbles are disappearing, but they don't move.

A sound downstairs interrupts this nice moment and both of them quickly gets out of the bathtub. They get dry and put their clothes on in the bedroom before Burt comes in.

Burt walks into the bedroom, “oh, hey Blaine”

Blaine smiles, but it drops when Burt looks around the Kurt's room. It's messy. The bed is and towels on the floor with socks and a cardigan Blaine was wearing.

Burt clearly understands what's going on, but doesn't say anything about it, “I'm going to make some lunch, do you guys want?”

They both nods and Burt walks out of the room.

“You think he knows?” Blaine asks.

“Is that a bad thing?” Kurt asks and sits down on the bed, putting on his socks.

“No of course not” Blaine says, understanding where Kurt is going with this, “Kurt”

Kurt looks up at Blaine, “what?”

Blaine sits down beside Kurt, “I love you and I don't care who knows about us. I'm ready. Everyone knows about me now, so there is nothing to hide. Well, okay maybe we can wait a little with my parents. They say they are fine with all of it, but I know they aren't comfortable with this yet.”

Kurt nods, “yeah, of course, take your time”

Blaine smiles and kisses Kurt softly. Kurt kisses him back, smiling back.

“Let's go eat” Kurt mumbles and they walk downstairs.

oooo

Blaine takes a bite of his salad, laughing at a story Burt tells him and Kurt from earlier today at work.

“So how is the glee club, Blaine?” Burt asks.

“It's good, we are preparing for regionals. We have the set list ready and I'm actually singing a solo”

“That's great!” Burt says, smiling, “which song”

Blaine grins, “can't tell, you just have to come and see”

Burt and Kurt chuckles and Burt nods, “wouldn't miss it, right Kurt?”

“Of course not, that's amazing babe”

Blaine blushes; Kurt has never called him that when others are around. Burt hasn't asked about them yet, but it was clearly he knows they are back together. Now he knows for sure at least.

Burt lifts an eyebrow at his son who rolls his eyes, “quiet it, we know you know”

“Know what?” Burt teases.

Carol comes in to the kitchen; Blaine hadn't heard the front door.

“Hey guys” she says with a smile, putting some grocery on the kitchen bench.

“Hey, honey, you're just in time. Kurt has something to tell us” Burt says with a big smile.

Kurt gives his dad a look at throws a bread crouton at him. Burt covers his face so it lands on the table; he grins and eats the crouton. Kurt rolls his eyes and takes Blaine's hand.

“We're back together” he says, looking at Carol who is smiling brightly.

Blaine blushes again, but smiles too.

“That's so great, it's about time” Carol says and puts the milk in the refrigerator.

After lunch, Kurt and Blaine decide to go for a walk. It's cold outside, but it's a nice weather so it feels good to walk in the fresh air..

Kurt takes Blaine's hand in his, “is this okay?”

Blaine smiles and looks down at their cold hands that are beginning to get warmer and nods, “yeah it's nice”

Kurt smiles back and kiss Blaine softly before they start walking again.

“I can't wait to hear you sing on stage, I haven't heard you since we sang together”

It took a while before Blaine would sing for anyone else. One day he just decided to sing in the glee club and everyone was surprised at how good he was. Rachel got mad of course that he hadn't told her he could sing, but after a few days she couldn't stop talking about singing duets with him. She wasn't very happy that Blaine got the solo for regionals, but she was still happy for him. It's was weird hearing this from her; she has always talked about how much she wants the solo. But Blaine and Rachel are singing the lead in another song though, so hopefully she isn't too upset.

“Can you please tell me what you are singing?” Kurt pleads, giving Blaine his puppy eyes.

Blaine looks away, laughing, “no, it's a surprise. Think you're going to like it though”

“Alright” Kurt sighs and they walk down the street, hand in hand.
