"I like to call it: The 7 Step Plan To Getting Your Two Oblivious Best Friends Together!"
"Bit of a long name, isnt it?" David commented.
"Im working on it. Anyway, are you in?"
"Hm, why not? Better than enduring more months of them singing flirty duets and stealing glances at one another in the practise room!"
"Good! Okay, ready for step one?" Wes asked excitedly.
"Whats step one?"
"Attain allies."
"And what exactly does that entail?" David asked curiously.
"Well, first of all, we know for a fact that Blaine likes Kurt, but we should probably be 100% sure that Kurt likes Blaine before we do anything. We dont want anyone getting upset!" Wes explained.
"Wow. Youve actually thought this out well. Warbler Wes must be taking over normal Wes!"
"Shut up, David. Anyway, it might also be a good idea to be in cahoots with some of Kurts friends. That way we dont look too suspicious and Kurt probably trusts them a lot more than us. Itll make things easier!"
"Good thinking, man! Where do we start?
"Hey, Kurt, can I borrow your phone?" David asked at lunch the next day. "I need to ring my dad and my phones dead."
"Erm, sure," Kurt replied. He unlocked it and passed it over to David. "Be sure to get it back soon though. Blaine and I are going out for coffee in our free and I need to text him to arrange where to meet."
David resisted the urge to roll his eyes at the mention of another coffee date and took the phone off Kurt. "Thanks, man. Wont take a minute!"
He stepped out of the crowded canteen and into the hall, where he proceeded to open Kurts contacts and scroll through the list until he got to the name he wanted. He quickly sent the contact details in a text to himself and, when his phone vibrated as a confirmation that hed received them, he deleted the message. He was about to lock the phone when a text came through. He didnt open it but that didnt stop him from looking at the preview.
Blaine Anderson: Hey, meet me at the front. Coffees on me today. Dont even try to pull out your wallet because...
Wow. They really needed to hurry up with getting those two together.
Later that night found David and Wes hovering over Davids phone. It was on speakerphone and they both eagerly awaited the phone call they were about to have.
"What up?" came the voice when it finally stopped ringing.
"Hi! Is this Mercedes?" Wes asked, quickly.
"Yeah. Whos this?"
"Wes and David. Were friends of Kurts from Dalton," he explained.
"Oh, whats wrong? Has something happened with Kurt?"
"No, no," David assured her. "Nothings wrong with Kurt. We just wanted to clear some things up involving him and perhaps make a deal with you."
"Im listening..." Mercedes prompted
"Well, weve noticed how Kurt and Blaine have become very... friendly," Wes said. "And we also know that they can be a little flirty. Being such good friends with Blaine, we know that he likes Kurt, even if hes oblivious to it himself, but we wanted to clear up how Kurt felt about Blaine."
"Why did you want to know that?" Mercedes asked.
"Well, weve come up with a plan. If Kurt feels the same way about Blaine then well go through with it."
"And the plan is...?" she asked.
"The 7 Step Plan To Getting Your Two Oblivious Gay Friends Together," Wes recited.
"Bit of a long name isnt it?"
"Thats what I said!" David told her. Wes glared at him and he raised his hands in a surrender motion.
"Okay, well Im in. If itll stop Kurt being upset every time he gushes about how dreamy Blaines voice is or how amazing his eyes are or how cute his butt-"
"Okay, thats enough about Blaine. I dont want to think of my best friends butt!" Wes cut her off.
"Right, well weve been involved in very similar conversations about Kurt so we know how you feel!" David added.
"Im in then. Whats step one?"
"Actually, this is step one," Wes explained. Step one was attain allies. We could really use your help with the Kurt side of things. We can talk to Blaine and get him to tell us things and trick him into doing things, but we might struggle with doing the same with Kurt. So we thought wed recruit Kurts best friend. And if need be, the help of the New Directions. Would it be alright if we just kept you updated on and go over what we need you to do?"
"Sure. So whats step two of the plan?"
David looked at Wes, also eager to hear the next step.
"Step two," Wes announced, "is obliviate the oblivious!"
"Okay, Wes, youre going to have to explain this further," David said.
"Basically, I dont know about Kurt but Blaine is so oblivious about the way he feels about Kurt. Hes always going on about how amazing he is, how fantastic his voice is, how gorgeous he is, but he hasnt actually admitted he likes him. Its obvious to us, but its not to him and its definitely not to Kurt," Wes clarified.
"Well, I think itll be easy to get Kurt to admit his feelings if I try," Mercedes piped up. "Getting his to realise Blaine feels the same wont be so easy. Hes kind of insecure about stuff like that."
"Right. So lets start with clearing up their feelings. Making them realise the other feels the same is just an added bonus," David said.
"Cool. Ill get Kurt around for a girls night at the weekend. Of course, Ill have to explain to the girls whats going on. But that will give you the time to speak to Blaine too," said Mercedes.
"Perfect! Ah, Im so glad we called you, Mercedes!" Wes grinned.
"Anything for Kurt! Look, Ill keep you updated on whats happening, alright?"
"Great! Thanks, Mercedes! Well call you on Sunday and swap details."
"Awesome! Now if youll excuse me boys, I have a group of girls to call and face masks to whip up!"
