"Kurt really I don't know if we should do this." Elliot said for the fifth time that night.
"Ell seriously double dating is so fun. This will be great." Kurt told him, yet again as they were shown to their booth.
It had been a month from the Valentine's Day Party and Kurt had finally been able to set up a night when all four boys were free. He had been looking forward to this all week.
Elliot sighed beside him, but just nodded looping his arm around Kurt's waist.
"Oh look here they come!"
Blaine and Jesse walked hand in hand toward them, smiles on their faces.
"Hello everyone!" Jesse said as he slid into the booth, opposite the other couple. Blaine just smiled and slid in next to him.
"Hello you two, how are you this fine spring afternoon?" Kurt asked as he skimmed the menu, trying to pick out something healthy he could eat.
"We're good, I took Blaine to see my little brother play in his baseball game."
"And how was that?"
"Fun," Blaine said. "They won, and Jason was really nice."
"That's....great." Kurt said, not really paying attention, just looking down at the menu.
"Hello I'm Stacie, I'll be taking care of you today. Can I start you all off with some drinks?"
"Just water for me." Blaine said.
"Same," Jesse said. "Just without ice."
"Okay and for you two?"
"I'll take a Dr. Pepper and he'll take a strawberry lemonade with one lemon wedge, thanks."
Stacie smiled at Elliot and turned around to get their drinks.
They all sat in silence as they went over the menu, and not before long Stacie came back with their drinks.
"Are you all ready to order?"
"I think so, I'll start," Jesse said. "I'll take the Guacamole burger."
"How would you like that cooked?"
"Medium please."
"And for you dear."
Blaine looked up with a smile and ordered the garlic roasted chicken.
Elliot ordered next, getting the chopped salad with a side of French Fries, making everyone at the table giggle. Kurt was last, ordering the chicken ceasar salad.
"Alright I'll get that order right in."
"Thanks."
"Thank you."
She nodded and walked away, leaving the four boys alone again.
"So..." Elliot said.
"Uhm, Oh! Blaine are you excited for regionals? I know I am." Kurt said, starting a topic.
"Oh yea --."
"You know I was just thinking about that Kurt, what are you singing?" Elliot said effectively cutting Blaine off.
Kurt didn't even seem to notice as he went on a rant about Rachel and songs for regionals. Blaine sat quietly listening, even though on the inside all he wanted to punch Elliot in the face.
He honestly didn't know what Kurt saw in him. He was rude, to pretty much everyone, except Kurt. And he was full of himself. He always looked at himself as higher than those around him and Blaine couldn't stand that. It reminded him of so many of the guys at Dalton, and honestly that was one of the many reasons he left.
Elliot kept talking until the food finally arrived, everyone eating and trying to get in some words between mouthfuls of food.
Elliot laid off talking so much, and by the end of the night, everyone was laughing and having fun.
"Here's the check, thanks for stopping by."
"I'll get it." Blaine said, pulling out his wallet to pay for his and Jesse's dinner.
"Hey babe stop I got it." Jesse took out his wallet and place two twenties before placing it at the end of the table. "My treat." He said, leaning over and giving Blaine a light peck on the lips.
"Aww, you two are so adorable." Kurt said, swooning into Elliot's side.
Blaine and Jesse laughed at Kurt. They all got up and headed towards their cars, making small talk as they got ready to leave.
"So what are your plans for Spring Break Jesse?" Kurt asked. Spring Break was the next week and Kurt wanted to see if maybe they could all get together again.
"Oh, I'm going with Blaine to his brother's wedding, and I think we're staying there for a while right?"
"Uh, yea." Blaine said quietly. He had talked to Kurt before about inviting him to his brother's wedding, but since he had gotten a boyfriend, that just made more sense. But looking at Kurt he could see the wave of hurt going through his eyes.
"That should be fun." Elliot added, seeing that Kurt wasn't going to say anything.
"I'm pretty excited about it." Jesse said, taking Blaine's hand in his. "Well here we are, we'll see you guys soon alright?"
"Yea, bye guys."
Elliot and Kurt walked away towards their car and Blaine and Jesse got into theirs. As soon as they sat down in the front seats, Jesse turned to Blaine.
"What's wrong?"
Blaine looked taken aback. "Nothing."
"B, talk to me. I know something's up."
Blaine sighed and turned toward Jesse. "Before we were dating I may have mentioned the wedding to Kurt and talked about inviting him."
"Oh."
"Yea, and now that I have you, he should understand, but I know he's hurt."
"Okay, just take it easy for a little bit. He probably understands. Talk to him about it, don't you guys have that project you have to work on tomorrow?"
"Yea."
"Great so talk to him then okay?"
"Okay, yea thanks." Blaine said with a small smile.
"Anything for you babe." Jesse leaned in and gave him a kiss, before turning on the car and heading towards Blaine's home.

To: Jesse (9:37): Can't wait for the wedding either babe!
Kurt sighed for the umpteenth time as Blaine got distracted again from their French project that was due tomorrow.
"Blaine, please we really need to finish this."
Blaine was about to say something when his phone buzzed.
From: Jesse (9:38): You will look amazing in that tux up there ;)
Blaine giggled and started typing a reply when his phone was ripped out of his hands. He looked up to see Kurt glaring at him.
"Okay, sorry sorry, let's work on the project."
"Thank you." Kurt said, placing Blaine's phone on his bed side table.
They worked for the next hour, putting the finishing touches on the only project due the day before spring break started. Once they were finally finished, Kurt brought up the one thing that had been on his mind since yesterday.
"So, you're taking Jesse to your brother's wedding?"
Blaine immediately stopped putting things away and turned to face Kurt. "Uh yea. I wanted to talk to you about that actually."
"Yea you should, I thought I was going? I kinda already planned to."
"Well, the thing is Jesse is my boyfriend -."
"Of one month!" Kurt interrupted.
"Still, Kurt you're my best friend, but he's my boyfriend, so of course I'm going to invite him."
"Wow, so what you're saying is that he's better than me?"
"What?" Blaine practically yelled. "I'm not saying that at all! Will you listen? Kurt we aren't dating! I have a boyfriend so of course he's gonna be my plus one, and I'm pretty sure Elliot would be unhappy if you went with me."
"Excuse me?" Kurt said, an eyebrow shooting up.
"Oh come on Kurt! Elliot hates me!" Blaine shouted.
"He does not! Are you jealous?"
"Jealous?" Blaine said with a fake laugh. "Of that jerk? No, I'm surprised you're still with him honestly. He's so rude Kurt, how can you not see that?"
"No he's not! Why would you say that?" Kurt said, getting angry with Blaine.
"Nothing, never mind, I don't understand why you're freaking out about this. It's one wedding."
"You know what Blaine, go to the wedding and have fun with your boyfriend, since you keep bringing up the fact that you have one. And I'll just spend the break with my boyfriend!"
Kurt quickly got up and rushed out of the room and to his car. As soon as he was alone he started crying. He didn't know why he cared at all that Blaine was taking Jesse, but in the back of his mind he knew. It just wasn't the right time to think like that, he had Elliot, and clearly Blaine had Jesse, and that was that.
"Kurt really I don't know if we should do this." Elliot said for the fifth time that night.
"Ell seriously double dating is so fun. This will be great." Kurt told him, yet again as they were shown to their booth.
