“So he caught you in bed with a guy?”

“We weren’t in bed, we were in my bedROOM. And we weren’t even doing anything when he walked in,” Sebastian said, waiting for Blaine’s reaction.

Blaine wasn’t going to give in that easily. “I’’m really sorry that happened...but why are you here?”

“Look I know we had our problems and shit, but don’t you think we can work them out? I mean unless you’re already fucking that Kurt kid...”

“Did you not get my Facebook message? I’ve told you this didn’t have to do with him. And whatever I am doing now is really none of you business. Yes I miss you, yes I feel terrible... but- I don’t know what you want me to do, Sebastian.”

Sebastian sighed and moved closer to Blaine on the bed, resting his hand on Blaine’s knee. Blaine flinched at the memory of Sebastian’s touch. He tried to scoot away but Sebastian squeezed his leg tighter and Blaine looked up to meet Sebastian’s piercing gaze. He was looking at Blaine like he always used to- with hunger, need, and a possessive longing. It was a dangerous look.

“Seb. Stop, “ Blaine said gently. He didn’t know if Sebastian seriously wanted him back, or if he just wanted to prove that he could get him back.

“Come on,”

“Why are you here?” Blaine said, hardening his tone. He had to keep all his walls up around Sebastian or he knew he’d just fall right back into their toxic relationship.

“I told you... I got kicked out,” Sebastian responded.

“No. I mean why are you here.”

“I didn’t have anywhere else to go,” He said as if it was obvious. Blaine knew that he was practically Sebastian’s only option, but he didn’t want to believe it. Especially after he’d had such an incredible night with Kurt.

“Wes? David? Trent? Nick? Jeff? And those are just the Warblers... what about your cousin, Sarah. Or anyone else that’s not... your ex?” If felt weird to call himself Sebastian’s ‘ex’. He wasn’t trying to sound mean but the situation wasn’t exactly ideal, and he had no idea how to handle having Sebastian on his bed.

“I don’t want to bother and of them with my home life. They don’t know me like you do,” When he said that he moved his hand higher on Blaine’s thigh making Blaine stand up immediately. If they were going to have a serious conversation, it was best that Blaine not be that close to Sebastian.

“And you wanted to bother me?”

“I miss you.”

There it was. Blaine knew that Sebastian had an ulterior motive, he always did. Sebastian was doing what he did best- getting what he wanted. He knew that Blaine wouldn’t just throw him out, especially if he got emotions involved. But Blaine stood his ground the best he could.

“You can stay here. But you have to sleep on the couch. And it can only be for tonight, okay? Tomorrow I want you to go back to your house and try to fix things with your Dad.”

Sebastian smiled, his conniving grin, and walked over to Blaine. “Your so cute when you try to tell me what to do,” He said, pinching Blaine’s cheek.

Sebastian picked up his bags and Blaine led him to the living room where his mother was watching TV.

“Um, is it okay if Sebastian sleeps on the couch tonight?”

She looked up at him and peered at them both over her glasses, raising an eyebrow. “Why?”

“It would just be for the night, Mrs. Anderson. I had a fight with my Dad and-”

“Okay, fine. Blaine, you drive the both of you to school tomorrow, I don’t want to get into any trouble with aiding a kidnapping if Sebastian’s Dad gets upset at him being here,” She turned back to the TV. Mrs. Anderson knew that Sebastian’s parents never really supported Blaine and his relationship, for the sole reason that he didn’t really support any relationship his son had with another boy. Though she wasn’t the most accepting parent either, she took more of a ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ approach, and let Blaine keep his business to himself. But she also had never let a boy spend the night, and Blaine hadn’t even told her that he and Sebastian weren’t together anymore.

“Thank you,’ Sebastian said. The boys kept standing next to her until she realized they were waiting for her vacate the couch so Sebastian could settle down. She said goodnight to them and went headed to her bedroom upstairs.

Blaine helped Sebastian set up a makeshift bed on the couch with some blankets and pillows. They both changed into their pajamas separately and Blaine went back downstairs after brushing his teeth to check on Sebastian. He was sitting on the couch wearing only boxers.

“Could you put on a shirt?”

“Seriously, Blaine? Don’t act like you haven’t seen my fuckin’ body before.”

“Yeah, well that’s when we were dating. But we’re not, and I would appreciate if you put on something more appropriate,” Blaine said sternly. He didn’t know how he would sleep that night with the thought of Sebastian sleeping half naked about 100 feet from him.

“Whatever, babe,” Sebastian said sliding under the covers. “See you in the morning”

Blaine turned the lights off and carefully felt hi sway upstairs to his room. That was definitely not the way he expected the night to end. Laying down, he thought about how just a few hours ago he’d been sitting on Kurt's’ bed, making out with him, cuddling with him, and now he was thrown back into the emotional roller coaster called Sebastian Smythe.

_________________________________________________________________________

When Blaine woke up the next morning he was convinced that the entire previous day had been a dream. That was until he found the note from him Mom on his door that said:

I’m taking Dad’s car, you can take mine. Come home directly after school.

He sleepily trudged down the stairs and saw Sebastian, just waking up, on the couch. As he got closer he saw an array of crumpled tissues scattered on the floor next to the couch.

“You didn’t... on my couch....?” He said, disgusted and shocked.

“No, perv. I’m just a little sick,” Sebastian croaked, coughing into his elbow.

“Oh, sorry. Do you need anything?”

Sebastian looked Blaine up and down, “Nothing that won’t get you sick too,” he smirked.

Blaine scoffed and left the room to change and get ready for school separately from Sebastian. he still found it hard to believe that the only time Sebastian had spent the night at his house was after they were broken up.

“Ready?” Blaine ascended the stairs dressed, with is backpack and grabbed the car keys off the holder.

“Wonder what the boys at school will think of this,” Sebastian said. Blaine was thinking the same thing but hadn’t wanted to mention it out loud. He wasn’t looking forward to explaining this to his friends since he had already been so passive about discussing the break-up.

“Well being late would bring more attention to us, let’s go, ” Blaine opened the door and let Sebastian walk out first. He locked the door and turned around to see Sebastian standing on the stoop face to face with another boy.

“Uhm...” Sebastian let out before Blaine could step up quickly, pushing him out of the way. Now Blaine was the one face to face with Kurt.

“Kurt, what are you doing here?” Blaine managed to get out.

“I- um,” Kurt’s eyes nervously flashed back and forth between Sebastian and Blaine. “You left this at my house.” Kurt pushed a scarf into Blaine’s chest and turned to walk back to his car.

Blaine caught his arm and pulling him back, but Kurt shook himself free. “Kurt, wait.” He followed after Kurt to his car and then remembered he had to worry about Sebastian too. “Get in the car, I’ll be right back, ” he called over his shoulder. Sebastian didn’t move, he just watched the two other boys.

Blaine caught up to Kurt as he was about to get into the driver’s side door. “Kurt, please.”

“What?” He responded coldly.

“I- this is crazy. I promise you its not what you think,”

“Probably,” Kurt said, opening the door.

“Kurt. He got kicked out. He had no where to go,” Blaine’s voice cracked. He couldn’t imagine what was running through Kurt’s mind and he felt terrible.

“Just,” Kurt paused and Blaine could see that he had calmed down a bit. “...Don’t worry about it, it’s fine Blaine. I’ll talk to you later, okay?” He got in the car.

Blaine’s stomach turned. “Can I call you later?”

“We’ll see,” Kurt said and drove off.

When Blaine got back to his car Sebastian was sitting in the passenger’s seat. He wasn’t silent for long though.

“The fuck? So you have been with him?”

“I don’t remember it being any of your business and I really don’t want to talk about it- especially with you- right now.”

Apparently that was all that needed to be said because the rest of the car ride was silent. Sebastian stared out the window and didn't offer anymore comments about Kurt. Blaine focused on the road and tried not to think about anything. His head was crowded with way too many things at one time. He felt so overwhelmed with juggling his feelings for Kurt and wanting to keep Sebastian from getting to him.

When they got to Dalton Blaine dropped Sebastian off in the front and then drove around for a few minutes before parking. He contemplated going inside and then decided he was long overdue for a mental health day.

I can be at McKinley in 20 if you want to talk? Maybe over coffee? My treat.

He knew it was a long shot that Kurt would reply, or even want to skip school with him, But it was worth a try. Surprisingly it only took 2 minutes until his phone vibrated in his lap.

You’re lucky I can’t say no to free coffee.

Blaine smiled at his phone and pulled out of the Dalton parking lot. Maybe things with Kurt weren’t completely hopeless.
