Blaine is definitely jealous of this whole Boni system. Kurt picked a restaurant called Sarajevo 84, which also has a venue in Ljubljana, and the amount of food that he gets for a small price is insane.

“This makes me want to start studying again,” Blaine jokes. He has to pay full price, although prices in Slovenia also aren’t that high all the time. “But I think my time at Yale was enough.”

“What did you study again?”

“Business,” Blaine answers.

“And Quinn did the same, right?”

Blaine nods.

“I am also glad to be working, though,” Blaine says, “College was fun, but this is the real world. And it brought me here to Slovenia.”

“What exactly will you do?”

“I will just help out. I am only starting in my dad’s company,” Blaine explains, “Higher ranking members will do most of the heavy lifting. I just need to be here to represent the family and all the formal stuff. Maybe one day I will lead a part, like my brother Cooper, but I’m not there yet.”

“That’s ambitious,” Kurt says, “I like ambitious people. It’s worth the occasional grind, because I hope it pays off.”

“Do you want Broadway, is that why you’re in New York?”

Kurt nods eagerly.

“It’s a shot in the dark, I know, but I hope to make it.”

“I am sure this extra work at UoL will look good.”

They move on to other topics and when they finish their lunch, they walk back to the pier. There’s a small beach area, but it’s too cold in February.

“We can come back when it’s hotter,” Kurt suggest, “There are little beaches everywhere. I like the beach. Swimming and tanning, it’s great.”

“Maybe back home you can visit Los Angeles.”

“Yeah.”

Blaine thinks about Kurt at the beach, lying on a towel with fancy sunglasses and getting tan. Or him getting into the sea, wearing nothing but designer trunks, because that’s Kurt’s forte. He wonders what Kurt would look like, shirtless and shiny from the sunscreen.

Wait.

“Blaine?”

“Huh?” Blaine gets pulled out his thoughts.

“Shall we make a final stroll and head to Piran?” Kurt suggests.

“Y-yeah, sure.”

Blaine’s standing in the middle of Tartinijev trg and he’s making one big panorama photo of all the gorgeous buildings surrounding the square. He definitely understands why tourists come to this place.

After Kurt and Blaine made enough photo’s, they walk to the hill with St. George's Parish Church.

It’s a beautiful spot and you can see the Italian and Croatian coastlines from it. You also get a better view of the beach and the city.

“We can get an even better view,” Kurt says. He’s reading something on his phone. “The Bell tower has 146 steps and it gives a great aerial view of the plaza.”

Kurt was right and the view is so worth it. If they thought that the view from the church was great, than this is outstanding. They make a lot of photo’s, also with each other. Blaine can’t wait to send them to Quinn. He’s been telling her all about Kurt.

They then walk towards the medieval walls, a little bit outside of the centre. It’s a climb and luckily it isn’t too hot in February, so it’s fine. A ticket to walk the walls only costs €1.

Eventually, they go back to the centre and they explore some more. Just like Koper, there are a lot of smaller roads to explore. There’s also a lot of Venetian architecture and Blaine hears a lot of Italian speech.

The boulevard is another highlight and there are a lot of seafood restaurants here. Unfortunately for Kurt, there is no Boni in Piran.

“Blasphemy!” he says as he scrolls through his Boni app.

“Isn’t there a four hour interval between Boni?”

“Yes, but I wanted to check for later, but alas, no Boni.”

“We can also go back to Ljubljana and grab dinner there.”

“That sounds like a great idea.”

“Arrivederci, Pirano!” Kurt yells as he accelerates.

“I liked it. Both Koper and Piran were really nice. I’d like to come back here.” When it’s warmer, so they can go to the beach.

“With Quinn?”

“Hm?”

“Go there with Quinn?”

“Oh. Right. Possibly.”

He hadn’t thought of that yet. He hasn’t made concrete plans and Quinn won’t be here till April anyway. They do want to explore nature, since Quinn loves hiking and there are a lot of mountains more up north, but Blaine’s only gotten to Ljubljana a few days ago. He needs time to find stuff.

Luckily, Kurt can help him. He and take Kurt everywhere to make sure it’s good. Blaine suggests it.

“You want to take me on potential dating places to visit with your girlfriend to test if they are date-worthy?” he sounds confused.

“Well, when you put it that way it is indeed a bit weird.”

“Blaine, no worries, I’d love to travel with you. Today was fun and I needed it, so thank you.”

They run into Sunil in Ljubljana and when Kurt tells him that they’re looking for another place to eat, Sunil happily accompanies him to his favourite Chinese restaurant.

“I discovered this one on my second day here in the city and their dim sum is to die for!”

The three of them walk towards the restaurant and Sunil has his arm slung over Kurt and he listens to Kurt recounting what happened today and Blaine feels bad. He wanted it to be just the two of them. Sunil is cool, but dinner with Kurt would be a great way to end a day with Kurt.

It’s rude, since Sunil and Kurt clearly like each other.

Blaine wonders if they also like each other. That makes him uneasy, which in turn makes him feel more uneasy. It’s kind of  homophobic to not like the idea of Kurt with another guy. Oh, and Sunil with another guy as well. He didn’t think he’d be uncomfortable with it. Guys should like guys. Nothing bad there.

Blaine chastises himself and he swears to not let his discomfort show. He likes Kurt as a friend, so he needs to be a good friend in return. Kurt deserves that
