Author's Notes: TO BE CONTINUED...Your thoughts?
"What time is it? Kurt asked all of a sudden. In the middle of repairing a gunshot wound to a young man's shoulder, Kurt had just remembered what he needed to be doing.
"It's just after 4, what's wrong?" Mercedes answered as she noticed her best friend start to run something through his mind. It was always so obvious when he was trying to figure out something, it was literally like the cogs in his mind were visibly turning "What did you forget?"
"Nate" he sighed softly "I'm meant to be taking his cast off today but I can't leave this guy. I'm sure Blaine's already down there with him waiting"
"I'll go down and find someone to do it. They'll both understand if you can't be there"
Kurt let out a deep breath "Thank you 'Cedes and please apologise for me"
"Of course, Boo" she chuckled and made her way out of the operating room. She'd been dying to officially meet the famous Blaine Anderson whether he was Kurt's boyfriend or not. Skipping down to the foyer, she found the rockstar and his son being watched by a growing number of nurses at their station. "Don't you have anything else to do?" Mercedes quipped as she walked past. Making her way over to the Anderson pair and apologised for the nurses "They don't get much action other than the E! Network"
"You must be Mercedes" Blaine laughed and extended her hand out to the woman. She was impressed that he knew she existed. "It's nice to meet you finally"
"And you, Kurt tends to babble a lot when he's really happy and that's been happening quite a lot lately"
"The feeling is definitely mutual, is he ok? I can't get through to his cell"
"He's ok, he's in surgery" she chuckled "He apologises profusely, it's a pretty serious operation and he can't leave"
Nate sighed heavily as he scratched at the edge of his cast, he was so excited to finally get this plaster off until those hopes were suddenly dashed. He would just have to endure another day of his friends asking when he was finally getting his wrist back. Nate really hoped he'd have it off before tonight.
"No we are getting that cast off your hand little man, I promise" the nurse chuckled and held her hand out to Nate "I'll find someone better than Kurt"
"No chance but you can try" the ten year old giggled as he took Mercedes' hand and hopped off the seat.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Kurt sighed as he raced through to the foyer and found Blaine waiting for him nursing his second coffee of the afternoon "Where's Nate?"
"Celebrating" Blaine chuckled "It's Austin's birthday and they're having a sleep over. He's been hanging out for this party for weeks especially now he's plaster-less"
Kurt sat down beside Blaine and let out a soft laugh "So you came, I stood you up, Mercedes got Dr Truman to take off Nate's cast, you dropped Nate at a party on the other side of the city and then came back to wait for me?"
"Yes?" the singer laughed.
Kurt couldn't believe how incredibly sweet Blaine was to do all that for him especially after he blew them off earlier. "I lo... You're amazing" he smiled catching himself before he said three words they weren't quite ready for. It's not that Kurt hadn't thought about saying it, he had fallen for the young father the day they met.
"I try" Blaine chuckled softly and rested his hand on the doctor's knee "Is your shift almost over or can I at least steal you away for a coffee?"
"Give me ten minutes to change out of these scrubs then dinner is on me" Kurt smiled as he pressed a quick kiss to Blaine's cheek before rushing back to the elevator. As promised he returned almost ten years later looking effortlessly handsome as always. The pair made their way out to Blaine's car where Jeff was nowhere to be seen.
"No Kamikaze Boy? Am I no longer an unauthorised relationship?" Kurt chuckled as Blaine opened the door for him. Sliding in he waited for Blaine to get in himself.
"You've been approved but I kind of asked him to take a step back. Security guards are bit of a buzz kill on romantic dates" he chuckled as he pulled into the New York traffic "Where to for dinner?"
"There's a great little Italian place just off Times Square?"
"Sounds perfect"
As much as he hated Manhattan traffic, Blaine followed Kurt's directions toward the restaurant. Hating the traffic was one thing, the rockstar hated parking in the city more. Getting out of the car, Blaine laced his fingers with Kurt as they made the block long walk toward the restaurant. Rounding the corner, the pair heard the snap of a camera lens. This was New York and they weren't far from the biggest tourist attraction in the city so they took no notice. It wasn't until someone started calling Blaine's name.
"Blaine, Blaine" the photographer called out as he rushed across the street followed by a couple more paparazzi. "Blaine who is this?"
"My boyfriend, Kurt" Blaine answered without hesitation as he squeezed Kurt's hand tighter. The photographers continued to snap photos as the couple walked down the street causing some passers-by to stop and stare. Kurt quickly led Blaine into the restaurant and silently thanked the front of house manager for stopping the photographers at the door.
"Sorry about them. They're like an infection sometimes" Blaine chuckled as they were led to a table. The restaurant was small with intoxicating aromas wafting from the kitchen. Both their mouths were watering already. The waiter took their drink orders once they sat down and left them to look over the menu.
"You didn't hesitate when they asked who I was" Kurt commented as he looked up from his menu "You could have just said I was a friend or something"
"But that would be lying" the singer smiled "If I had even just stayed silent they would have made something up when they published the photos. I wanted them to know you were more than just some unidentified friend"
Kurt reached across the table and took his hand gently. He wanted to blurt out the words 'I love you' more than anything in that moment but he knew he couldn't. Blaine had just taken a big step by acknowledging Kurt as his boyfriend to the media and Kurt was happy with that. A declaration of love could wait for a time where there wasn't anyone outside trying to take their picture.
"There's going to be photographers just about everywhere we go" Blaine began softly. This was usually the conversation that sent the nice guys not looking for fame, running for the door. "I try to avoid them as much as possible but once the album is released and award season starts, it's going to get crazy. Sorry"
"What are you apologising for? It's all part of the job isn't it?" the doctor smiled and squeezed his boyfriend's hand gently "I kind of figured this would happen when we started dating and it's ok. I can handle a few people taking my photo"
"You say that now..."
"Hey" Kurt sighed "I'm not going anywhere. They don't scare me"
Blaine lifted their joined hands and pressed a soft kiss to Kurt's knuckles with a slight smile. To say the rock star was scared was an understatement. He had never wanted to give his heart to someone like he did with Kurt and it frightened him. What if he walked away? What if Blaine's career got too much for Kurt to handle? Blaine was terrified to think what could happen between them but he wanted to do it anyway. Unsure why, Blaine just knew he wanted everything with Kurt. He just knew Kurt was different.
The waiter came back with their drinks a few minutes later and took their order. The conversation flowed right through dinner. Kurt apologised once again for standing Nate up that afternoon and promised he would make it up to the ten year old. Not wanting the night to end just yet, the pair ordered dessert to share.
Blaine excused himself for a second as the vibrating of his phone for the eighth time in the last ten minutes finally got annoying. Opening one of the many texts from his manager, the singer sighed softly.
"Problem?"
"The photos have already been published and Wes is ready to kill me for not giving him a heads up on the date and the declaration" Blaine chuckled as he read the next message "I really wish he'd stop acting like my Mom sometimes"
Blaine sent back a quick text saying 'Sorry for not telling you first, Mom. If anyone asks tell them the same thing I did. Kurt is my boyfriend'. Setting his phone on the table, he waited for the inevitable reply from his best friend and manager.
"I'm sorry if this causing so much trouble"
"Don't apologise, there's nothing wrong. Wes can just be a bit of a drama queen. It's probably not the way he wanted me to tell the media about our relationship but he can just deal with it. They were going to find out soon anyway"
"What do you mean?" Kurt wondered but was answered with an envelope Blaine pulled from his jacket pocket. Handing the envelope to Kurt, he insisted he opened it.
"I'd like it if you would be my date to the Lincoln Centre Charity Gala in a couple weeks"
Kurt was stunned as he looked down at the invitation. One of the biggest A-List events of the year in New York, Kurt had dreamed of going to a gala like this. The men wore Armani and Gucci suits while the women showed off the latest couture collections to come off Fifth Avenue. It was a fashion lovers heaven and as a lover of fine couture, Kurt couldn't believe he was going to see it all first hand. To be there with Blaine would just be the cherry on top of what is going to be an amazing night.
"If you don't want to go or can't get the night off work, I totally understand" Blaine began babbling when Kurt didn't answer right away.
"Blaine, honey. Shut up" Kurt laughed "I'd love to go with you"
"Really?" he smiled brightly resembling a small child who had just been walked into Disneyland.
"Only one problem"
Blaine's heart sank
"I don't think I have suit quite fabulous enough for an event like this"
Laughing softly, Blaine let out the deep breath he didn't realise he was holding "I have a fitting on Thursday with a stylist who has a few suits set aside, some in my measurements and others that she can tailor for you"
"You had this planned? How did you know I'd say yes?"
"I just hoped"
"Well you hoped right" the young doctor smiled as he leant across the table and kissed Blaine quickly "You're just full of wonderful surprises aren't you Mr Anderson?"

As the night of the Gala approached, Blaine was beyond nervous. It was his first public outing with Kurt beside him and according to Wes it was the biggest night of his life. Lecturing him on what to say to the media they'd encounter down the red carpet that night, Wes just wanted the night to go smoothly even if it didn't seem like it on the outside. He wanted his best friend to be happy and if this doctor made him happy then so be it. He just didn't want this doctor to break his heart.
"You look very handsome Dad" Nate smiled as he walked into his father's bedroom and sat up on the bed. Almost ready, Blaine just had to tie his shoes, his tie and grab his jacket.
"Thank you bud" he chuckled as he ruffled his son's curls with a weak smile "Have you got everything you want to take to Uncle Cooper's packed? I'll be there tomorrow afternoon to pick you up"
"Why not in the morning? We could have breakfast at our caf� on the East side" the ten year old suggested hopefully. He loved staying with his Uncle Cooper but he hated that he didn't get to go to the fancy dinner with his Dad.
"Because Uncle Cooper wants to take you boys ice skating tomorrow, he takes you every year"
"Why can't you come?"
Blaine let out a soft sigh and pressed a kiss to Nate's curls. He hated seeing the sad puppy dog eyes his son was famous for. Tonight was a big deal for the young singer not only for his relationship with Kurt but for his career as well. He was performing at the Gala that night in front of a lot of important people. This could mean a lot for Blaine's new album and the reception it got once it was released.
"I will be there as soon as I can tomorrow. Now go grab your bag, Uncle Cooper will be here soon"
"Fine" Nate growled softly as he jumped off the bed and stormed from his father's room. Blaine sighed loudly as he fixed his tie and tied his shoes. Slipping his jacket on, he admired his Calvin Klein suit in the mirror before making his way out into the living room.
Once Cooper had pocked Nate up and made countless smart remarks about Blaine's suit, the singer was out the door. Shaking all the nerves out as he made his way downstairs, he met Jeff by the door. He gave the limo driver Kurt's address as he made their way uptown.
Shaking his knee the entire way there, seeing Kurt dressed in a stunning grey Armani suit was the only thing that calmed him. With an ice blue tie that matched his eyes, he took Blaine's breath away.
"Hi" Kurt smiled as Blaine crossed the sidewalk toward his doorstep "You look very handsome"
"And you look absolutely stunning" Blaine breathed as he cupped the doctor's cheeks with both hands and kissed his passionately. Pulling away when the need for air became too much, they smiled at each other "Ready to go"
Kurt nodded unable to form a complete sentence after that kiss.
