"This is so boring!" Blaine shouted as he looked at his math text book.

"Blaine, you need to study."

"I know, but does studying have to be so boring?"

"Find a way to make it more fun."

"How?"

"I don't know, you're creative, you'll think of something."

"How about, every time I get an answer right, I get a kiss."

"From who?"

Blaine laughed. "Kurt!"

Kurt smirked before nodding. "Okay, you get an answer right, I'll give you a kiss."

"Two plus two equals four, kiss please!"

"Blaine, that's not in your text book, I think you're a little more advanced than that when it comes to math... at least I hope you are."

"You didn't say I had to get the questions in the book right, you just said that if I answered a question right, I get a kiss... so I made a question up, kiss please!"

Kurt rolled his eyes and Blaine scrunched his nose up and leaned forward, obviously expecting a kiss.

"You don't get a kiss for two plus two, answer something more difficult and then you get a kiss."

Blaine pouted. "But you said... you said if I answered a question right, I get a kiss, you never said it had to be in the book!"

"You've already stated this."

"And I'll continue to state it until I get my kiss."

"You're pathetic."

"That's because I'm lacking in kisses."

"If I kiss you, will you be quiet?"

"Yes!"

"Alright, come here you goofball." Kurt said between a giggle as he turned slightly so he was facing his boyfriend, kissing him just as the lights went out.

"What happened?" Blaine asked when they pulled apart.

"Power must've gone out."

"I bet it was the kiss, it was so full of love and awesomeness that your house couldn't handle it."

"Yes, Blaine... I'm sure that's exactly what happened."

"Don't be sarcastic, that's totally what happened!"

"Well we can't have the power going out all the time, so I guess no more kissing."

"What?"

Kurt laughed. "I'm teasing you, geeze, calm down. Let's see if we can find a flashlight."

Blaine stood up and bit his lip. "Okay, I can't see anything, where are you?"

"Over here, reach your hand out, I'll see if I can manage finding you."

Blaine extended his hand, only to flinch back when Kurt actually succeeded in finding him.

"Ow! You hit me in the nose!"

"Sorry! I didn't mean to, I forget how short you are sometimes."

Blaine rubbed his nose with one hand, grabbing Kurt's with the other.

"Hey, don't make fun of my shortness."

"It's not my fault you're vertically challenged."

"Okay, can we stop making fun of my height and figure out how to get the lights on?"

Kurt smirked as he tried to lead them both towards what he was pretty sure was the kitchen.

"You're not, scared of the dark... are you?"

"I'm scared of you accidentally whacking me in the face again in the dark."

"It was an accident!"

"So you say."

Kurt rolled his eyes, even though Blaine couldn't see the action in the dark, finally managing to find the kitchen. He smirked to himself as he dug through the drawers in an attempt to find a flashlight, realizing that Blaine had dodged his question... maybe he'd found Blaine's fear, maybe he was scared of the dark.

Only one way to find out.

"I'm letting go of your hand."

"What? Why?"

"I'll find the flashlight faster if I can dig through the drawer with both hands, let go."

"Okay, okay, just don't whack me again."

Kurt rolled his eyes again before digging through the drawer, smiling when he finally found what he was looking for.

"Ah ha!" he shouted as he turned it on, moving it around a bit in an attempt to find Blaine. Before he could spot him, he heard a loud crash and what sounded like a book hitting the floor. Blaine yelled as the flashlight waved around, lighting different spots of the kitchen for less than a second until he finally managed to find Blaine.

"What are you screaming about?" Kurt asked quickly, had he finally discovered Blaine's fear? Was he afraid of the dark?

"There was a shadow on my math book that looked like a big F, like a sign that I'm going to fail my math test, I saw into my future and it was hideous!"

It was at that moment that Kurt noticed the look on his face wasn't real fear, but mock fear, and that his overly dramatic voice had suddenly turned into a fit of laughter... Blaine wasn't scared, he was just being a goober.

He sighed and shook his head. Looks like the dark was another thing he could cross off when it came to this list of Blaine's possible fears.

"Well, let's change your future by heading back into the living room and studying by flashlight. You might have some hope for passing this test yet."

So he hadn't discovered Blaine's fear yet, well... with the power out, he had some opportunities to find out, after all, nothing was more scary than things that went bump in the night...
