Chapter 4

When the bell rang Blaine rushed to the library. He just couldn’t wait to see those gorgeous blue eyes again.

The library was not far away from the classroom he was in. Yet, it seemed like he would never get there.

When he got there, after what seemed like an hour, Kurt was already waiting for him with that bright smile he loves so much.

“I was starting to think you wouldn’t come, Blaine” Kurt said, grinning.

“Why is that? I’m not late. You’re early, actually” Blaine replied, glancing at his watch

Blaine sat next to Kurt but tried to stay a little away for Kurt didn’t feel uncomfortable.

“Now tell me. What happened? And don’t come up with another excuse like ‘I am just tired’ because I know you like the back of my hand, Blaine. You’re my best friend and I’m worried about you.” Kurt said, concern visible in his eyes.

“I-It’s my dad”

“Oh, Blaine…what did he do this time?”

“You know, same as always. He came home drunk and got all angry when I tried to calm him down. He called me that ‘f word’ again” Blaine sighed.

“I’m so sorry, B. I swear to you that I would do whatever I could to make him stop. But I just can’t.” Kurt gave him a sad smile.

“I know that, Kurt. But you don’t have to do anything. I just wish he was more like your dad, you know? All supportive and proud of his son.” Blaine tried to hold back tears.

“You know what? You’re coming to my house tonight and we’re going to watch a movie. It always cheers you up, doesn’t it? You can pick one this time, even if I know you’re going to choose Moulin Rouge, anyway” They both chuckled. “Let me just call my dad, okay?”

Blaine nodded. “I’m going to call my mom too.” He paused and sighed “Thanks, Kurt. You are…the best best friend anyone could ever have”

“I know that” Kurt said, teasingly.

“Oh God, you’re so cocky sometimes.”

“Me? I’m the most humble person in the whole world” Kurt smirked.

“Of course.”

Kurt took his phone off his bag and dialed Burt’s phone number.

Blaine did the same and called his mother.

“Hi, mom”

“Sweetheart, are you still at school?”   His mother sounded a little preoccupied and relieved at the same time.

“Yeah. I just wanted to know if you’re okay…you know, after what dad did”

“Oh, I’m just fine, honey. He’s sleeping now”

“Good. I also called to let you know that I’ll sleep at Kurt’s tonight”

“Kurt, huh? Are you two…”

“ No, mom. Please, not now” Blaine whispered, blushing.

“Okay, sorry. You can go. Just take care of yourself. You’re both so young and-“

“Mom!”

“Sorry, sorry! Go have fun”

“Thank you. Bye” He hang up.

When Blaine turned around Kurt was finishing his conversation on the phone with his father.

“Okay, dad. I know. Bye!”

“So...Shall we go?” Kurt asked.

“Yep.”

They started walking to the exit when Noah appeared. Blaine should’ve known it.

“Kurt! I’ve been looking for you since the end of the classes.” He said, smiling. But his smiled quickly faded away when he saw that Kurt wasn’t alone. “Hi, Blaine” He said with a fake smile.

“Hey” Blaine replied, returning Noah’s fake smile.

“Babe, do you want to go to the movies or do something tonight?”

Oh, God. What if Kurt said yes? He couldn’t. Tonight would be their night. They haven’t had a sleepover since Kurt started dating Noah. Obviously Kurt would choose to be with his best friend. Oh, who was he kidding? He was scared shitless that Kurt would turn him down and he was almost sure this was what would happen. This thought made his heart ache and he felt a pang on his chest.

“Actually, Noah, I have plans for tonight. I’m sorry. Maybe tomorrow?” Kurt asked and to Blaine’s surprise he didn’t sound sorry at all.

“Okay.” Noah gave Blaine a look that said ‘touch my boyfriend and I’ll kill you’. “Have fun” He kissed Kurt’s lips and to both his boyfriend and Blaine’s surprise he deepened the kiss with his tongue and started to move his hand down. Kurt pulled away immediately.

“Baby, I think I have to go now, okay? See you later”

Blaine gave the biggest grin of the day when Kurt linked their arms and they started walking together to Kurt’s house, leaving a very pissed off Noah behind them.
