Chapter 15 – Part 2

“Have you noticed anything… weird lately?” Blaine asked Kurt warily while they were preparing for Kurt’s history class the next day.

The other boy looked up from the text book “How weird? Like whispers that stop at the exact moment when they notice us? Strange pairings like Tina and Noah walking together? The others getting texts at the same time? No, I don’t think I have noticed anything weird,” he grinned.

Blaine laughed. “How about Jeff asking me to throw a party in our apartment?”

“What occasion?” Kurt asked confused. “Celebrating his birthday again?”

“I don’t know. But I want to know so I said yes.”

“When is it?”

“This Friday,” Blaine answered. “Now back to history. Tell me about Northern Crusades.”

<~*~>

Jeff: Part 2, step 1 – Completed.

Sugar smirked standing by the entrance to the building. She scolded herself for not putting on some warmer clothes. It was only the middle of October but it was a chilly evening. She was also frustrated because Lauren was late.

Finally after good five minutes a car came closer and a girl in a red sweater came out of it. She was holding something in her right hand.

“Hey, Lauren. I thought I would freeze waiting,” Sugar went closer and took what the girl was holding. “I can’t believe there was no ‘twister’ in the whole building.”

“You owe me, pretty face,” was the only thing Lauren said before walking back to the car.

“Well, thank you,” Sugar shouted as the girl was driving away.

Sugar went back into the building and thought for a second, checking if she already had everything they needed.

Sugar: Part 2, step 3 – Completed.

Noah: Lauren is awesome. She can get anything you want. Not like Jeff.

Jeff: Say one more word and you will never get anything from me.

Noah: Have I told you how much I love you?

Tina: I’m so saving this conversation for future blackmailing.

<~*~>

“When were the Northern Crusades, Sebastian?” Sue asked.

“Twelve thirteen centuries,” the boy answered.

“Where were they, Santana?”

“Latvia, Prussia, Lithuania, and Estonia.”

“Who were the crusaders, Kurt?”

“Sword-Brothers, Denmark, Sweden… and Teutonic Order.”

“Too slow. Who crushed the Teutonic Order, Sebastian?”

“Vytautas the Great, who led the joined forces of Lithuanians and Polish into the victory in the Battle of Grunwald, in 1410,” he answered immediately and everyone eyed him in disbelief. Even Sue because that information was not in the text book. It was supposed to be a tricky question. However she said nothing and continued to ask questions.

“Apparently we are not good enough for him anymore,” Wes laughed as Sebastian left quickly while the others didn’t even have time to stand up.

Finally they left but parted to meet their supervisors for the class with them for the rest of the day. Kurt found himself walking with Tina.

“Did you know that there is a party in Blaine’s apartment this Saturday? I would love it if you could come,” he smiled at the girl. “You owe me – I went to London for you.”

Don’t pretend you didn’t like it, Tina rolled her eyes playfully.

“I liked it but still the fact is that I did that because of you,” Kurt giggled. “So Friday… At eight?”

Tina nodded.

“Hey, Mike,” Kurt waved and entered the elevator leaving Tina with Mike.

“So?” Mike asked when the elevator rose.

Tina: Part 2, step 2 – Buckbeak is IN.

Mike: Yay!

Tina raised an eyebrow and looked questioningly at the boy.

“What?” he laughed.

Tina just shook her head and smiled.

“So I was thinking of some jiu jitsu today.”

<~*~>

Friday came quickly and everyone was excited about the party. All ‘whites’ were supposed to be there with their supervisors. Jeff, who suggested throwing the party, invited Noah as well saying that the others liked him during their trip to London. So as eight approached people started to fill in. Jeff and Noah had brought food and drinks earlier that day, though strictly no alcohol. Sugar mentioned having prepared some games with the girls. Overall everyone expected it to be a funny party.

Half past eight everyone was in Blaine’s apartment, music blasting. At ten they were all sweaty from dancing and some active games.

“I have an idea, guys!” Santana shouted. “Let’s play ‘twister’!”

People cheered and Santana spread the plastic mat. “Kurt, Tina, Blaine, and Sugar can go first. I will do the spinning.”

Kurt looked at Blaine and smiled shyly. Blaine tried not to look at the boy. When they were set, Santana started. “Kurt, left foot on red.”

Minutes passed and everyone seemed to be paying attention at the game. By that time Blaine found himself in a very uncomfortable position – between Kurt’s legs, trying not to let their pelvises touch.

“Let’s go all the way tonight!” Noah half sang, half shouted and Mike cat called making everyone laugh even harder.

“I can’t anymore!” Sugar shouted even though she was in a comfortable position, and fell on Blaine making him grind into Kurt who couldn’t help but moan silently. That wasn’t overlooked and there was a wave of laughter.

“I think we are done here,” he said and they all stood up. “My turn to spin, Santana. You can go play with Sebastian, Sam and Noah.”

For another half an hour they played ‘twister’, until they were bored. “Let’s play spin the bottle!” Nick shouted excitedly.

“Dude, you realise that we have only three chicks here and nine guys? Do the math,” Noah rolled his eyes.

“Where is your sense of adventure?” Sugar mocked him.

“Fine,” he said and took the bottle. “Who wants to go first?”

“I will,” Mike said after a moment of silence. He took the bottle as they sat on the ground in a circle. It looked like he was counting something silently. And once the spin was over, the bottle stopped pointing at Tina. They both smiled and Mike crawled closer and kissed the girl.

“How did you do that?” Sebastian looked at him confused.

“Did what?”

“You wanted to kiss her and the bottle stopped there. How did you do that?”

“Magic,” Mike laughed and Wes took the bottle next. Sebastian shot a questioning look at Sam and he nodded like saying ‘I will show you’.

“Sam!” Santana laughed as Wes lowered his head in defeat.

“Come here, hottie,” Sam laughed and they met in the middle of the circle. Wes inhaled deeply and kissed the boy. The room was filled with laughter.

“Kurt, your turn,” Sam gave the bottle to the boy. Kurt took the bottle and spun. At that moment Blaine’s phone rang.

“Sorry, I have to take it,” he said and went to the kitchen. The bottle landed where Blaine had been sitting a moment later.

There were a few disappointed sighs. “Well, Tina was the closest so you have to kiss her,” Sam said and Santana looked at him as if she could kill him for saying that.

“We can wait,” Jeff insisted. Tina nodded.

“It’s alright,” Kurt shrugged. “Come here, lucky girl. You are getting a lot of attention tonight.”

A few forced giggles came out of the conspirators while the others laughed wholeheartedly. While Kurt was kissing Tina, Blaine came back. “Sorry guys, Tom called. We were being a bit too loud.”

“We will be silent from now on,” Nick promised and they continued the game. However, Kurt and Blaine didn’t get another chance to kiss.

“My lips are swollen,” Sugar complained but still smiling. “Let’s play another game. I call it ‘guess who’. It’s simple. One person is blindfolded. And then he has to guess who is standing in front of him by the touch. I know you may guess from smell because of different perfumes so I will spray my perfume on that person. And the person will have to be shirtless. Just in case, because the fabrics of our clothes are different and so on. Who wants to go first?”

“Me!” Santana jumped giggling. She stood quietly while Sugar blindfolded her. “Okay, I can’t see.”

Sugar went through the people and stood in front of Jeff. He nodded grinning and took off the shirt. Tina sprayed some perfume and he went straight to Santana. There was complete silence while Santana was tracing her fingers through Jeff’s abs. Surprisingly they were quite not bad for a person who spent most time with computers.

“Um… Nick?”

“No,” Nick answered from the corner.

Santana continued. “Blaine?”

“No,” the boy chuckled.  

After guessing every guy Santana stood confused. “Well, Sugar, you should not be standing here without your bra. Besides, since when are your boobs so small?”

“Very funny,” Jeff rolled his eyes and Santana hugged him.

“Who’s next? Blaine?” Santana winked him.

“Fine,” he said knowing what may probably happen and took the blindfold.

Santana grabbed Mike and Kurt and they both looked confused. But she simply sprayed some perfume on both boys and led Mike closer to Blaine.

“Kurt,” Blaine said frowning without even touching the boy.

“No,” Kurt said from a bit further and made Blaine raise his eyebrow. He stood a bit confused.

“Aw, you want it to be him,” Sugar went to Blaine, wrapped her arm around the boy’s waist, and patted his nose playfully. It allowed Mike and Kurt to change places without Blaine noticing it.

“Sugar, let him ravish this hot person in front of him,” Noah laughed and Sugar retreated.

Kurt stood there, his face dark red while Blaine was running his fingers through his torso. “I’m pretty sure it’s a guy,” he said.

It took two whole minutes even though he wasn’t fooled. He knew that it was Kurt standing in front of him. He had seen him too many times. His thumb brushed over Kurt’s nipple teasingly.

“I still think it’s Kurt,” he said finally and everyone laughed. He took the blindfold off but didn’t look at Kurt who turned around quickly. “Sebastian’s turn!”

The game went on until it was midnight. While everyone was dancing, Blaine asked Kurt, who was the only one sitting, to go to the kitchen to help him refill drinks.

“Quickly,” Jeff motioned everyone to leave. Santana grabbed Sebastian, Mike grabbed Nick, Noah grabbed Sam, and Tina grabbed Wes. While the others were leaving, Jeff changed the CD with romantic songs and ran away quickly.

<~*~>

“What the hell happened?” Nick asked confused.

“Party is over,” Noah said and Santana nodded. The looks on their faces showed that it’s better not to question.

“Whatever. I will go to bed then,” Sebastian said and Wes followed him after shrugging and saying goodnight.

Sam and Nick parted from the group soon enough.

“Part two, step seven – completed,” Jeff laughed.

“Time for steps eight and nine,” Mike nodded and after a second of silence they all started to run towards Jeff’s apartment.

They all got there and went straight to the computer which was on. They were just in time to find the boys going back into the room, which they found empty, a slow music playing in the dimmed place. Kurt grinned at Blaine. “I find it adorable what they are doing,” he said.

“Adorable indeed. But I find you way more adorable,” Blaine smiled back, cupped Kurt’s face, and kissed him slowly.

“Do you think we should tell them?” Kurt asked breaking the kiss.

“Sure,” Blaine grinned widely and pulled him closer to one of the shelves. Kurt frowned a little but Blaine didn’t say anything. They simply stood there giving the perfect view to the hidden camera. “Guys, do you see this gorgeous boy?” he asked and wrapped his right arm around Kurt’s waist.

“Um, babe? You are talking to a shelf,” Kurt looked at him confused.

Blaine giggled. “Let me introduce you. Shelf, this is my boyfriend Kurt. Kurt, this is Jeff and most likely Mike, Sugar, Noah, Tina, and Santana.”
