They left the Lima Bean hand in hand. They jumped onto Blaine's car and drove to Dalton. Kurt was still in shock for what had happened in the coffee shop. Blaine had kissed him. KISSED. HIM. 'This is surreal' he thought as Blaine parked at the school.
Suddenly, his phone rang. 'I should take this' he said breaking apart from Blaine.
A name appeared on the screen: Rach
'Hi, Kurt! I thought I'd surprise you calling early in the morning. How's everything going?'
'Hey Rach, I just arrived to the school, I was out for coffee… with… Blaine'
'Blaine? BLAINE?'
'Don't freak out Rach, we went as friends… sort of''
'What is that supposed to mean? Kurt, Blaine is no good. I mean he seems like a good boy, but he's not good for you'
'Rach! How can you say that of your own brother? And what is good for me? 'Cause from the last time I checked there are not many fish in the ocean for me!'
'I'm telling you the truth. And by no means can you date him just because he is my brother. It would be more than awkward and you would stop spending the weekends with me.'
'Rach, stop talking for Christ Sake! I'm not dating your brother… yet. I'm kind of… happy when I'm with him, Rachel. For the record, you are dating Finn and I haven't said shit about it.'
'It's different. I started dating Finn, before you two became brothers. Kurt, I'm serious. You can't date Blaine. Our relationship is at risk if you start going out with him! He has always tried to take away the things that I love. He's been jealous of me from day one'.
'This is so not about you! I like Blaine and I will go out with him whether you like it or not'
'Is that your final answer? Well, then goodbye Kurt. It's been nice to meet you' she hung up.
He couldn't believe Rachel could be such a… such a… such a Bitch! She was his best friend! But she had a point. He had to make a decision before losing the only friend who had been with him since the beginning. 'It's not like I'm falling for Blaine… right? Right?' But suddenly an idea hit his mind.
----------------------------------------------------------
'Who was that?' Blaine asked, looking at a thoughtful Kurt.
'We can't do this' Kurt said, letting go of Blaine's hand in the stairs where they had met.
'What are you talking about, Kurt? Did I rush things? I mean we can take it slower- if you don't want to label it- I mean I would like to-' Kurt remained silent. 'Please, say something!'
'It's just… you are Rachel's brother, Blaine. This is wrong'.
'That was Rachel, right? What did she tell you? I bet she lied. I bet she told you that I was no good and that dating me would be a huge mistake' Kurt simply nodded. 'You can't be serious Kurt! You are going to believe her? I-I want to be with you, Kurt. I don't care what other people think, I just want to try this, and I know it will be alright. Give us a chance, Kurt'
Kurt looked away from Blaine and started walking. He suddenly stopped and turned around to meet Blaine again.
'No one can know. Not even your best friend, not even my… well, Rachel can't know. I want to be with you too, but we need to take things slowly. I don't know what I'm doing Blaine, and I don't want any of us to get hurt' Kurt kissed Blaine's cheek and left.
Blaine was happy, more than happy. But lying to his sister, to his friends was something he never expected to do. 'Kurt's worth it' he thought as he went to his Italian class.
----------------------------------------------------------
Luckily, Kurt didn't have any classes with Blaine the entire morning. After lunch, they had AP English and Chemistry. He tried to use his time without Blaine to think how he would make this relationship work. He needed someone to be his confident, his "Private Diary". 'Oh, I can buy a notebook and start writing there' he thought as Mrs. Chateaux explained the basics of a French conversation. French for Kurt was a piece of cake; he had only taken this class to have more points for graduation time.
He could always tell Mercedes. She had been by her side always, but not as Rachel had. 'Stop thinking about what you may have lost and think about what you have' he said to himself as he glanced down at his notebook. 'Blaine + Kurt' was written inside a heart. He sighed.
'Boy trouble, Hummel?' Jeff asked behind him. He quickly closed his notebook, praying for Jeff not to have read that.
'Nope. I'm just… homesick'
'You live with... Blaine in a heart?' he chuckled.
'What? No!' he regretted answering after realizing that Jeff was just teasing him.
'I saw both of your names inside a heart. First I thought, 'hey Kurt's got some nice handwriting', but then reality hit me. You like Blaine?'
'Please don't tell anyone! It's been three days here; I don't want any lousy rumor going around. It's a slight crush, I-I'll get over him' Kurt said.
'I can help you with that' Kurt blushed. 'Oh, that didn't come out well. I mean, I can help you with not "letting lousy rumors go around". If only Blaine found out…'
'Whatever you mean?'
'Blaine's been talking about you since you two met a few days ago. At first he was like "Who does he think he is? Owning the school with his pretty walk and… his stuff" and last night, for what Trent told me, he was tossing and turning in bed saying your name'
'Wow. Well that's interesting. Thanks Jeff' Kurt said turning around and paying attention for the last two minutes. Although he hadn't yet decided if Jeff was to be trusted, he wanted to tell him everything. Let him know that Blaine and he were together. 'Are we together?' he asked himself before bumping into Blaine at the hallways.
'Well, hello you' Blaine said in the most seductive voice. Kurt trembled.
'Hi'
'How's your day so far?' Blaine asked while taking Kurt's books from his hand and carrying them for him.
'French's easy for me, so I had time to think and just chill out. I sat in front of Jeff, he told me a couple of things about you'
'I'm going to kill him. Yes, I'm going to kill him' Blaine said as he started searching for Jeff in the crowded hallway.
'Relax, Blaine' Kurt said, putting both of his hands over Blaine's shoulders. He caressed them softly, trying to act friendly instead of throwing himself in Blaine's arms. He didn't know how to tell Blaine what had happened in class. Was he supposed to tell him 'well I was daydreaming about you and I and I happened to draw a heart with both our names in it'? He opted not to.
'I was writing something and he told me if I had boy troubles. I said "nope" then…blah blah, he told me you have been talking about me for the last few days. First you were mad because I had a "pretty walk" and I owned the school. But last night, you tossed and turned in bed calling my name'.
'Blah blah? Did that part of the conversation actually happened? You should've taped yourself doing that, so we can show it to our grandchildren' Kurt blushed. Blaine was thinking about their future… together. 'You're cute when you blush' Kurt blushed even more. 'Yep, cutest thing ever'.
'You are deflecting! Do I look like I own the school? Do I look like I own something?' Kurt said with a small smile. Blaine was so charming.
'You owned my morning thoughts, and I bet you will own them until I see you again' he said, squeezing Kurt's hand and walking away.
