Chapter 6

The first thing that Blaine registered when he opened his eyes was a very soft and warm body pressed against his own. The other person had a hand on his waist and his own nose was on their neck. His first instinct was to breath in the scent against his nose. It smelled like vanilla and cinnamon. He instantly knew who it was. Kurt. Beautiful Kurt was there wrapped around him. It should’ve been uncomfortable because of their position and the couch wasn’t very big. But it wasn’t.

It felt so good. So right.

Suddenly everything that had happened last night came to him. They curled up watching Moulin Rouge, they dancing to the sound of Come What May, their almost kiss, Blaine’s nightmare. Oh God, he didn’t even want to think about it.

He realized that he had cried in front of Kurt and now he was so ashamed. He didn’t want his best friend to see him like that, so weak and broken.

He them remembered that they both had to go to school so he had to wake Kurt up which was a really hard thing for him to do since the other boy looked impossibly beautiful in his sleep, the sunshine reflecting in his soft, pale skin.

“Kurt, wake up.” Blaine said as he nudged Kurt’s arm gently.

“Hm…let me sleep” Blaine smiled at how adorable the boy in front of him was.

“We have to get ready for school”

That being said, Kurt sat in his bed, eyes still closed.

“Oh, how I wished today was Saturday” He said.

“I wish that everyday” They both snorted.

“Do you want to take a shower first?” Kurt asked.

“If you don’t mind”

“Of course I don’t” He smiled.

As Blaine started to gather his things to take to the bathroom Kurt took his phone and noticed it had a few texts from Noah.

From: Noah (7:52 pm)

Kurt, I didn’t like the fact that you left me alone there because of your stupid friend.

From: Noah (8:48 pm)

KURT, DON’T IGNORE ME!! WHERE ARE YOU?

From: Noah (10:33 pm)

Fine. Don’t answer me. But don’t come up with apologies tomorrow because I won’t accept them.

“Shit”

Kurt knew how possessive Noah was, even though they’ve been dating for only a few days.

He texted back:

To: Noah (7:05 am)

Noah, First: Blaine is not stupid, okay? ; Second: He spent the night at my place because he was having problems with his father. I was just helping him; Third: Don’t talk to me like that.

Less than five minutes later he got a text back.

From: Noah (7:09 am)

It’s okay, baby. I’m sorry. I was a bit jealous. See you at school? Xx

At the moment he finished reading the text, Blaine got out of the shower.

“Is everything okay?”

Kurt couldn’t help but stare at Blaine’s bare chest. He had only a towel around his hip.

His muscles were much defined and his skin a perfectly tanned. Suddenly Kurt felt his underwear becoming tighter. Fuck.

He took a pillow and pressed it on his lap to hide his half hard-on.

Then he looked at Blaine and noticed that the boy looked like he was waiting for an answer.

“Yeah, I’m just… texting Mercedes. She says she misses me.”

Kurt had to lie because he had noticed before how Blaine and his boyfriend didn’t like each other. Blaine would stiffen even by the mention of his name. Kurt had no idea why was that.

Noah didn’t like his best friend for obvious reasons: Jealousy.

“Ah, but we’re going to see her in a while”

“Yeah, it’s just that I’m too important to the people around me. One day I spend away from them and boom: they miss me” He smirked.

Blaine rolled his eyes but Kurt could see his smile.

“Okay. Mr. I-am-more-important-than-the-president, we have to hurry up because school start in 30 minutes” Said Blaine.

He then remembered the problem he had between his legs. He stood up and hoped that Blaine wouldn’t notice it.

“Uh…I’m going to have a quick shower”

“Kurt?”

The taller boy turned.

“Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Y-Yeah. Sure. I’m just a little asleep.” He forced a yawn. “See?”

Blaine didn’t look like he had bought his excuse but decided to shrug it off.

***

Fifteen minutes later, both boys were in Kurt’s Navigator, heading to school.

“Kurt, I wanted to apologize.” Blaine said, a little shyly.

“What for?” He frowned.

“For crying on your shoulder last night. Your shirt must have become soaked with tears and I really know how much you care about your clothes and-”

“Blaine, you are unbelievable! I am you best friend. My shoulder will always be here for you to cry on, okay?” He grinned.

Blaine stared in those pretty glasz eyes and felt his heart beating faster. Then he noticed that maybe he was staring for a long time so he looked away.

***

“Hi, babe.” Said Noah as soon as he saw his boyfriend entering the school with Blaine.

Kurt gave him a small smile and the other boy kissed him deeply.

Damn it. Why did they have to kiss so much? Blaine thought, staring at his locker.

“Hello, white boy” Mercedes said appearing out of the blue. She gave him a hug.

“I missed you ‘Cedes!”

“I missed you too” She smiled.

“God, you two miss each other all the time, don’t you? First the text, now this little scene.” He chuckled.

Kurt’s eyes widened.

“Hi, Blaine.” She said before frowning. “What text?”

“You know… the one you sent to him before school, saying you missed him.”

“But I didn’t text Kurt today. What-”

“Blaine, can I talk to you?” Kurt said, interrupting Mercedes.

“S-Sure” Blaine stuttered.

“I’ll be right back” Kurt said to Noah and Mercedes.

Kurt dragged Blaine to a quieter place.

He sighed.

“Blaine, I’m so sorry. I might have…lied to you” Kurt said, not looking the other boy in the eye because it would be too painful.

“W-Why?”

“I’m sorry. I was texting Noah and I know that you don’t like him-” Blaine tried to protest but Kurt held his arm up gesturing that he wasn’t finished.

“I can see it, okay? But, I don’t know why I lied…I just don’t like that look on your face when we talk about him” He sighed. “You’re my best friend, Blaine. He’s my boyfriend. What do you have against him?”

“Nothing! I just…the way he looks at me like he wants to kill me. It frightens me” He lied.

“You’re lying, Blaine” Kurt said firmly.

“Okay, fine Kurt! I don’t like him…he doesn’t seem to be a good guy. He bullies people, Kurt!” Blaine raised his voice.

“He used to…he doesn’t do it anymore. He’s changed.”

“Kurt, I-”

“Is there a problem, babe?” Blaine heard Noah saying out of the sudden.

“N-No” Said Kurt.

“You know what? Never mind” He turned away and started walking.

“Blaine! Wait” Kurt said, trying to go after him.

“Kurt, we’re late to our classes. Let’s go” Noah said, grabbing him by the arm.

With one final glance in the direction that Blaine had gone He went with Noah.

***

Blaine was so pissed off. He was tired of everything. If Noah hadn’t arrived Blaine would have told Kurt about his feelings. Or maybe not. He was such a coward.

He was pushed away from his thoughts when he felt someone shove him against his locker.

“Hey, Wh- Noah?”

“Listen up. You’re going to leave Kurt alone, okay? I know about you stupid little crush on him.”

“Why? Are you afraid of him choosing me over you?” Noah pressed harder.

“He would never do that! Look at you, pathetic nerd. Why would he leave me, the quarterback of the football team, to be with you, a little nothing?” The way he spoke reminded Blaine of his father. “He’s better off without you, anyway.”

“Don’t say that! That’s not true. I am his best friend! He cares about me!”

“Oh, okay. Keep telling yourself that…" He smirked and then his expression became serious again. "Just stay away from him”

“Why would I do that?”

“Let’s just say that it would keep people from getting hurt” Noah smirked one more time.

“Are you threatening me?”

“No, of course not. I’m just trying to do what’s best for Kurt”

“I don’t understand-”

“Let’s just say that you wouldn’t be the one getting hurt”

“You wouldn’t…You’re sick!”

“Yeah, whatever. Just don’t get near him and he’ll be okay. Got it?”

Blaine nodded slowly.

Noah left.

Oh God. Blaine was lost. He didn’t know what to do anymore.
