"So we are going to talk to Finn about our situation and see if he wants to help. He seemed like he liked having Kurt as a brother. Who wouldn't want to help a brother out?" Wes said as they were in the parking lot.
"Yeah, Finn is pretty cool."
They walked in and saw Finn with a customer trying out a video game.
"Jump is x and punch is square. Yeah, just like that, good job man! You gotta go through the forest." Finn was helping out the kid with the controller.
"Dragon Slayer!" David yelled.
Finn looked over at the two boys. "Zombie Eater! Elf Lord! Hey! How you guys doing?" He had a huge smile on his face.
"Good, good to see you," Wes said as they bumped fists with each other.
"Come to check out Forest Hunter 4 Back and Ready To Kill?"
"That's for another time, we came to talk to you." Wes said.
"Oh, did I do something wrong?" Finn had a frown on his face and was trying to think of anything he did bad.
"No, no we just need to talk to you." David said shaking his head. "Maybe some where in private," looking around at the mostly empty store.
"Umm okay" Finn looked puzzled. "We can talk in this corner by the Nintendo games."
"That's perfect!" David said walking over to the corner with Finn and Wes.
"So what did you want to talk about?"
They explained the situation to Finn about how their friend Blaine had a crush and needed some help. Finn wanted to help and was excited about the plan. He wanted Kurt to be happy and this guy seemed like he could make Kurt happy. Also, where else are you going to find an out and proud gay in Lima Heights.
"He should be at the shop now till five."
"That's great Finn, thanks. David get Blaine on the phone," Wes ordered happily.
"We gotta go, thanks, we will tell you how it goes later." Wes said to Finn walking toward the door.
"I'm sure Kurt will tell me tonight, you're welcome!" Finn yelled at David and Wes as they were walking out the door.
David was talking on the phone, "hey Blaine, we are going to the movies, we're on are way to pick you up."
Blaine said something on the other line then David said bye and hung up.
"He's happy, we wants to see the new action movie out."
"He will be getting action all right." Wes said.
They got in the car and headed to Blaine's house.
Once they arrived they walked right in and went up to Blaine's room. They were always over each other's houses and were practically family, they didn't need to knock on the door. But they did knock on Blaine's bedroom door, enough to give a heads up but not enough for an answer.
"Hey Blaine, ready?" Wes asked walking over and popping on his bed.
"You're wearing that?" David asked looking at Blaine's outfit.
Blaine was wearing old jeans and a t-shirt that said Dalton Physical Education.
"It's Sunday I don't feel like dressing up."
"Everyone knows you gotta look nice if you are going to the movies." Wes stated.
"But you guys are just wearing t-shirts and jeans too."
"These are designer jeans. Everyone will know we are dressed fancy," David said twirling in front of Blaine's mirror. "Here let us help you."
Wes and David starting going through Blaine's closet finding something for Blaine to wear.
"What pair of pants fits your hips the best?" David asked looking through his jeans.
"Definitely the dark ones," Blaine said without thinking. "Wait, why do you want to know?"
"A bros always gotta be lookin' fresh," Wes said going through the button downed shirts. "V-neck or a collar?" He asked David.
"V-neck with cardigan," David answered.
"Good choice," Wes grabbed the clothes and threw them at Blaine. "Put these on, so we can go."
When Blaine was finished dressing he modeled his outfit to the boys. He had on dark jeans, a white v-neck and a black cardigan.
Wes stood with his arms crossed and David had his hand on his hips. They looked very concentrated on the outfit. After about a minute of scrutinizing they turned to each other and shook hands.
"Good work doctor."
"Doctor, thank you, you too, doctor."
"Let's go, the movies await!" David said pointing his finger in the air and then moving it to the door. They walked to the car, got in, and drove away. Wes was driving and David was in the passenger seat with Blaine in the back.
"You are going the wrong way," Blaine said looking out the window.
"I know a short cut," Wes said turing a corner.
"Okay, whatever you say, I haven't been living here my whole life," Blaine said sarcastically.
They drove for a few miles singing along to the radio.
The car started to slow down while on the road.
"Oh no, the car isn't working," Wes said slamming his fist on the wheel.
"What do you mean it's not working?" Blaine asked looking concerned.
"I don't know, I put my foot on the pedal and it won't accelerate. Work! Work! Stupid car." Wes was pounding his fist on the dashboard now. He pulled over on the side of the road and shut the engine off.
Wes and David got out of the car and looked under the hood.
"Looks like its broken." Wes said sadly.
"Hey look! Over there! There is a mechanic, how convenient," David said pointing across the street.
Wes read the front of the shop, "Hummel's Tire and Lube, that looks promising," He said with a smile. "Me and David are going to push the car across the street. Blaine stay inside, we don't want your clothes to get dirty."
"I can help," He said opening the door.
"No stay inside, we put a lot of effort into your outfit, we don't want it to go to waste." David said closing Blaine's door. Blaine muttered to himself about them being the gay one's and sat back down with his hands across his chest.
They pushed the car across the street, there was no other cars around since it was a Sunday.
When they reached the shop Wes and David collapsed on the car.
"Hey Blaine, can you go in and order us a number four with a diet coke." David said panting.
"I'll have mine super size, please, we are tired from all the pushing," Wes said.
"It was only like ten feet away, you do realize there is no fast food around."
"Just go!" They shouted.
"Okay, okay." Blaine walked toward the shop entrance, took one look through the window, and ran back to the car.
"What's wrong?" Wes asked.
"He's, he's, in there," Blaine stuttered as he pointed at the window.
"Who?" David asked trying to hide a smile.
"K-Kurt"
"Cool, tell him I said what's up."
"Come on, I'm serious, I don't want to make a fool of myself."
"Just go in, tell him our car is broken and then before you leave ask him out," Wes said as it was obvious.
"I can't ask him out, he is working and probably doesn't like me and-"
David cut him off, "Blaine you are a handsome young man and fate brought you too together. If you don't ask him out now, you probably won't get to see him ever again. Now stand up straight and march right in there."
Blaine did as he was told, took a deep breath and walked inside.
"Good pep talk man." Wes said to David.
"Thanks I saw it on a TV show once."

Kurt was in the office dancing to a song on the radio and organizing papers. Blaine walked in on him and just stared. Kurt was shaking his butt and singing unaware that anyone was watching him. He did a turn and noticed Blaine standing there.
"Oh, hi, I didn't see you, sorry you had to witness that," He gave a nervous giggle and his cheeks turned a deep shade of red.
Blaine shook his head, bringing himself out of a trance, "hi," he said shyly.
"You work at target don't you? How can I help you?" Blaine got excited and showed a little smile. He couldn't believe Kurt remembered him.
"Yeah, w-well my friend's car broke down just outside and I wanted to see if we could get it looked at," Blaine said nervously, he tried to hide his hands from shaking. Kurt was wearing overalls with an old shirt underneath and grease stains all over. Not his finest Kurt would think, but Blaine loved it even more.
"Okay, let me take a look." Kurt walked out passed Blaine, with him following close behind.
Burt noticed the boys sitting by the car panting and was already outside looking under the hood with Wes and David standing behind.
"Well boys, I don't see anything wrong, turn the key and see what happens." Burt said drying his hands off on a rag.
Wes got in and turned the key, the car started perfectly fine. "Hallelujah!" David exclaimed throwing his hands in the air. David nodded and winked at Blaine telling him this was his chance and he turned to distract Burt.
Blaine was making circles in the dirt with his shoe.
"Looks like it's fixed," Kurt told him.
"Yeah, I'm Blaine by the way," he extended his hand. Kurt shook it, "Kurt."
Wow, his hand is so soft, it's now or never. "So I know this is very random and all of a sudden but would you like to go out with me on a date. Maybe dinner and movie, or something else, or nothing if you say no, that's ok."
Kurt froze and looked shocked. He could not believe what he just heard. Kurt gave up a long time ago with boys in Lima Height because every time he tried he failed miserably. He assumed they were all straight and had no interest in him.
"W-hat?" he stuttered out.
"It is ok, thanks any-"
"No, I mean yes, I would like to go out with you. This is just sudden, and I am not even dressed nice."
"I think you look nice," Blaine said smiling.
"Hold on I will be right back," Kurt said and ran inside.
Oh no he is running away, I scared him.
Kurt came back with a piece of paper and handed it to Blaine. It had all seven digits on it. Blaine could jump up and down he was so happy.
David saw the exchange and called out, "Come on Blaine, car's fixed."
"I'll call you, see you later," Blaine said with a smile.
"Kay, bye," Kurt's smile was equally big.
They got in the car and drove away, with Blaine looking out the back window at Kurt as he got smaller and smaller.
Burt walked over to Kurt standing there and smiling, "what did you give him?"
"Just our business card in case they have anymore trouble."
"Okay," and he walked back into the shop, leaving Kurt by himself to smile even wider and give a little squeal and jump.
