Blaine, David and Kurt made it back to Blaine's apartment, stopping to pick some coffee up on the way. Between the three, it only took one trip to get all of Kurt's things inside. All the bags were sitting in Blaine's room, making Blaine smile. He bumped shoulders with Kurt, who was holding the picture frame still.
"Hey, now you can help my clean out my closet and judge me based on my clothing choices."
"You-you're really gonna give me some of your closet?"
Blaine rolled his eyes. "Of course I am dummy. What, you thought I'd make you live out of garbage bags. And if you're real nice, I'll even let you have a few drawers." Blaine winked, which made Kurt blush. Blaine gestured to the picture in Kurt's hands. "May I?"
Kurt blinked in confusion then handed Blaine the picture frame. Blaine strode out of his room and made his way towards the front door. Kurt followed after, still confused and wondering what Blaine was doing. Blaine stopped by the table he had by the front door that had his bowl he tossed his keys into. He carefully set the picture frame next to his key bowl, facing the door so it would be one of the first things people saw when they walked inside. He turned back to face Kurt, who was looking back and forth between the picture frame and Blaine.
At the sight of his picture frame out in the open for everyone to see, Kurt burst into tears. Blaine rushed forward, a little confused but more than excited at the excuse to hug Kurt. He wrapped his arms around Kurt's shoulders and held him tight. He looked over Kurt's shoulder at David and Wes who were standing there not really knowing what to do. The two friends shared a look, then shrugged before walking over to Kurt and Blaine and wrapping their arms around the two of them, putting them in a little David and Wes cocoon.
Kurt started laughing almost instantly, which made David tighten his grip. Wes followed suit and Blaine pretended to be choking. "Okay guys! You're crushing us!"
Everyone stepped out of the group hug at the same time, but Blaine kept his hand on Kurt's shoulder. Kurt looked over at him and smiled, wiping away the tears. "I'm sorry. It's just, he never let me have that picture out, nor any pictures of me or my family. It's just..seeing it out just makes me so...happy."
Blaine wanted to laugh and cry all at once. Hearing Kurt admit that Lawrence hid him away made him want to go back and kick Lawrence in the balls, but hearing that Blaine did something to make Kurt happy...well that made Blaine want to do an Irish jig. "Kurt. You don't have to hide who you are here. If you have other pictures you want out, then by all means set them out. Hell, spraypaint 'Kurt was here' on the wall, I don't care."
Kurt laughed again and gave Blaine another watery smile. David and Wes made simultaneous 'aaaww' sounds. Ali had crawled over at the sound and started pulling on Kurt's leg so people would pay attention to her. Kurt bent and picked her up without even thinking and plopped her on his hip. "Hey pretty girl. You want some attention too?" Ali didn't respond, just started playing with the collar on Kurt's shirt.
Blaine was staring at Kurt with the awed expression he wore every time he saw him and Ali together. He was so distracted, he didn't see the hands that were suddenly smacking him in the back of the head. "Hey! What was that for!"
David and Wes were whistling innocently. Blaine glared then let out a small battle cry before throwing himself at Wes, who was much smaller than David and therefore a good target, and started play hitting him anywhere he could reach. And so the second wrestling match began with Kurt shaking his head from the sidelines. He looked at Ali as she laughed at the three boys. "Oh not you too Ali! Don't worry, I will teach you some much better forms of entertainment. Let's go look at some of Uncle Blaine's old Vogue issues."
Kurt stepped over Blaine, David and Wes who were now on the floor yelling random insults, and took Ali over to the couch. He looked at the boys fondly again and felt something warm settle inside himself. The past two days may have been super stressful and emotionally draining, but right now he couldn't help but feel completely content.
Finally the boys stopped rolling around and stood laughing. Blaine's hair was sticking up everywhere, Wes' collar was horribly stretched and David's jeans had begun sliding down. Kurt shook his head at them all, pretending to judge them, but he couldn't help but smile.
David and Wes shared another look and a nod. David stepped forward and ruffled Blaine's already messy hair. "Well youngling, me and Wes are gonna bounce. Let you two get settled."
Blaine glared. "David. I'm only a year younger than you. Don't call me 'youngling'."
David laughed. "Alright then shortstuff. We'll see you later. I'll let you know next time I'm in town and we can all meet up?"
Blaine smiled and gave his friend a hug. "You better let me know. I miss you! We should Skype sometime too."
"Sure thing. I'll get Trent and Nick over too."
Kurt stood and walked over to the group. "Um. Th-thank you for helping out today. I mean, you don't even know me and you-just, thank you." He smiled at both David and Wes.
Wes put his hand on Kurt's shoulder. "Kurt, we may have just met, but any friend of Blaine's is a friend of ours. Cliche, I know, but that's how it works. Oh and, since you'll be living with Blaine now, be sure to keep him off the furniture. There was this time in our freshman year of college when he-"
Blaine slapped his hand over Wes' mouth. "OKAY! No more words from Wes." Both David and Wes laughed and Kurt filed that away for later. He would definitely need to hear that story. Blaine removed his hold on Wes catiously in case he started speaking again. When he didn't, Blaine pulled him into a hug. "You're lucky I like you so much, otherwise I'd probably hate you."
"Blaine. That makes no sense."
"Ssshhhh. It doesn't have to. Now embrace me Wesley."
Wes shoved Blaine away, and Blaine pouted. Kurt was shaking his head as they all made their way closer to the front door. David and Wes turned, giving Blaine and Kurt big smiles. David stepped forward. "Okay Kurt. C'mere." He pulled Kurt into a warm hug, which Kurt returned even if he was a little shocked. Then Wes stepped forward for a hug and wow, these people sure liked to hug. He pulled away and blushed. "It really was nice meeting you both. I hope I get to see you again sometime."
"You too Kurt. We'll be in touch! Don't worry, this won't be the last you see of us."
Blaine gave David another hug just as they were about to leave. "Take care man. I miss you and we need to talk more. Have a safe drive back to Boston."
"Will do buddy. Talk to you soon. Bye Miss Ali!"
They all turned to look at the little girl, who had no interest whatsoever in any of them. After a few more goodbyes, David and Wes finally left, leaving the apartment feeling a lot quieter. Kurt didn't know what to do now that is was just him and Blaine. With the other two here, it was easier to be distracted from all his emotions, but now with the emptyness, everything was coming back.
Blaine smiled at Kurt and reached out to squeeze his arm gently. "Let's sit and relax a bit before we start unpacking?" At Kurt's nod, Blaine went and sat on the couch and Kurt sat next to him. Blaine gave him a worried look. "You doing okay?"
"Mmhhm. I just feel...I don't know actually. I think free may be the best word right now. I feel like I can finally be me again. No hiding."
Blaine smiled. "No hiding ever again. Well, unless we're playing hide and seek with Ali, then there's hiding."
Kurt laughed and shook his head. "You know you're a dork right?"
"So I've been told. By you."
"Well, I'm nothing if not honest."
They smiled at each other and let the silence settle. It didn't feel uncomfortable, but there was something there that was making Kurt feel flustered. "So we should probably make arrangements and stuff."
Blaine tilted his head to the side in question. "Arrangements for what?"
"Like...sleeping and stuff and like, you probably don't have to pay me to watch Ali anymore since I'm sorta gonna be here anyways. And I should probably pay you some rent and stuff."
"Well those are simple. I'll sleep here, you sleep in my room. And of course I'm still gonna pay you, you idiot. And don't even think about paying rent. I don't even pay rent. As long as I'm in school, my parents work out the rent. And beside, I got a lot in my savings from when my grandfather died. I'll go and talk to the landlord tomorrow and see if they have any three bedroom flats available. I want you to be able to have your own space too."
Kurt was speechless and didn't even know where to start. "Blaine I-" He shook his head to get his thoughts together. "No. I'm not taking yourbed. You've talked before about how this couch is uncomfortable to sleep on. You need your rest for school and Ali and just. No way. Also, I don't want to feel like a moocher or something."
Blaine shook his head. "Kurt. You being here and being safe is literally all I need from you. I will continue to pay you so you can get things you want to get. Trust me, I'm at the point where I get so tired, I could probably sleep in the dinning table and sleep soundly."
Kurt felt his eyes begin to water again and rapidly blinked the moisture away. "Why are you so nice to me?"
Blaine was confused by the question. He grabbed Kurt's hand and held it tightly. "Kurt. I care about you a lot. Of course I'm gonna be nice to you. I meant everything I said last night. I wasn't just saying that to make you feel better, though I hope it did. I want you to be happy, and I will do everything in my power to make sure that happens, so just get used to it okay?"
"I'll try my hardest, I'm just not used to it. Nobody's ever really been nice to me unless they had to. I mean, my family is obviously an exception, but everyone else I've ever met..." He trailed off, shaking his head.
Blaine scooted a little closer. "I wish you knew how much it hurts for me to hear that. I truly don't understand it. You're amazing Kurt, and anyone that doesn't see that should be locked in an institution."
Kurt gave a little smile and turned a little to face Blaine more. "You're kinda amazing too, did you know?"
Blaine gave a palyful smile and a shrug. "Yeah. I am." They both started laughing. Blaine stopped when Ali started whining from where she was sitting. "Oh. I think it may be someone's naptime. What do you say baby girl?" Ali just pouted so Blaine picked her up and took her to the kitchen to start her bottle. Kurt stood from the couch and called to Blaine, "I'm just gonna start laying my stuff out on the bed."
He heard Blaine shout back an 'okay!' then made his way to Blaine's room that was techincally part his now. The thought made him feel a bit giddy. As he opened his first bag, he had a thought about the sleeping arrangements and made a note to tell Blaine when he came in. Kurt had only gotten halfway through the first bag when Blaine came bounding in with a big smile. "Hey! She's already asleep! I didn't even have to sing to her. Weird."
"It must have been an exciting day for her, with all the new people over."
"Oh. Yeah. I didn't think about that. Okay. Ready to make fun of my clothes?"
"Oh, I'm always ready for that. But first I had an idea about the sleeping arrangement."
"Kurt-"
"Hear me out?"
"Fine. Go on."
"What if we like switch. Like, one week you get the room, then we switch? It sounds complicated, but if you think your landlord has any available units, we may only have to do it for a little while. And if you insist on paying me, I can start saving for my own place so I don't have to be in your hair."
Blaine pouted. He didn't want Kurt to move away, but if that's what he wanted then Blaine had to be okay with it. "Are you going to be stubborn about this?"
"Absolutely."
"Ugggh. Fine."
"You should probably learn that Kurt Hummel usually gets what he wants."
"Noted."
They shared a smile then Blaine turned to his closet. "Okay. I think we can manage to make this an even split. There's so much in here I haven't worn in such a long time, it would be better served going to charity."
Kurt smiled and nodded and went to sort through Blaine's things. They talked about lighter topics as they worked, more of their favorite things and stuff of that sort. Every so often Kurt would pull something out and raise his eyebrow at Blaine. Blaine would usually just shrug and laugh then tell Kurt to add it to the steadily growing pile of shirts. After about an hour of working, there was a pretty large pile of Blaine's discarded clothes. Blaine started cleaning out a few drawers in his tall dresser for Kurt's use when they heard Ali start gurgling on the baby monitor. Blaine dropped everything he was doing and made to leave, but Kurt stopped him.
"I'll get her!"
Blaine didn't even try to hide the lovesick expression that took over his face as Kurt left the room. Since last night, he had already began forming another plan. He would give Kurt his space and time to be single, but that didn't mean he was gonna hold back everything he had always wanted to say to him. He would let Kurt decide when he was possibly- and hopefully- ready for a relationship with him. Blaine had finally stopped denying that Kurt was attracted to him, especially after Kurt had asked Blaine to kiss him last night. The traitorous part of his brain was still yelling at him for not taking that opportunity, but the logical part of his brain was applauding him for his restraint.
Kurt came back in, with a sleepy looking Ali on his hip. "So. I'm making a nice dinner tonight as a major thank you."
"Kurt you don't have t-"
"Shush. I'm doing this. And you already know I'm an excellent cook. So stand there and say 'Thank You Kurt."
Blaine smiled and let out a little laugh. "Thank you Kurt."
"Oh why Blaine, you're more than welcome!"
They smiled at each other, something they seemed to be doing a lot more of today. Blaine was exhausted having not slept much the previous night, but just being around Kurt made him feel like he drank all the coffee in New York. They let Ali play in the pile of discarded clothes as Kurt re-organized Blaine's things based on color, then added his own stuff once he was finished. He stepped back to admire his work, then smiled at Blaine. "Thank you for letting me have some of this space."
"You're welcome. We'll get you your own full closet soon enough!"
Kurt was still in awe over Blaine's kindness. "Do you mind if I take a shower? I just feel kinda gross. And no offense, but I would really like to get into my own clothes."
Blaine laughed and bent to pick up Ali. "You live here Kurt, you don't need permission to shower."
"Oh. Right. I- yeah okay."
Blaine threw his head back and let out a loud laugh. "You're adorable." Kurt blushed which only made Blaine smile more. "Oh, right! The shower. There's kind of a trick to turning the shower head on. You have to like, turn it a little as you pull up. It gets stuck about halfway up, so give it a little twist and you should be good."
"Right. Thanks."
Blaine smiled at Kurt once more before turning his attention on Ali as he walked out of the room. "What do you say baby girl, how about a Disney movie?" Of course he got no answer, but he didn't care. He wanted to watch a Disney movie and since he owned every movie ever, there was a lot to chose from. He set Ali on the ground and went to his DVD rack, looking through all the titles. He was debating between two so he pulled them out and set them in front of Ali. "Which one Aligator? Mulan or Pocahontas?"
Ali flailed her arms then grabbed Mulan and stuck it in her mouth and started babbling. Blaine laughed and grabbed the movie out of her hands. "Mulan it is! Good choice!" He stood and put the DVD in and turned to see Ali had put the Pochontas case in her mouth. Once he started the movie, he went and sat next to Ali on the floor, instantly quoting every line to her.
Meanwhile, Kurt was fighting with the shower, trying to use Blaine's helpful tip before he finally got the shower to turn on. He quickly got in and relaxed under the hot water. He let himself have a few minutes to just stand there and let his muscles relax and his mind to clear. He had been thinking a lot about what Blaine had said last night, about taking his time to remember who he was. It was an excellent idea, but he wondered how long Blaine would make him wait before they could be together. Now that Kurt didn't have to feel guilty about his attraction to Blaine, he just wanted to be able to act on his urges. Mainly his urge to kiss him. But he would wait. Blaine was right. He didn't deserve to be a rebound, even though that's not at all what he would be. Blaine was so much more than that. Blaine was everything.
Kurt sighed dreamily and quickly scrubbed himself clean so he could get out and cook them a nice meal. He hopped out of the shower and quickly dried off. He got dressed, sighing happily as he put on his own clothes, then worked in the mirror putting on all his various moisturizers, his skin did not like that he skipped last night and this morning. He decided to just comb his hair back and let it dry on his own, not wanting to snoop around Blaine's bathroom for a hairdryer, even if it was technically half his bathroom now too.
Once Kurt sprayed his hair, he collected the dirty clothes and threw them in the clothes hamper in the corner. He left the bathroom and froze. Blaine was standing on top of the couch sing yelling down to Ali, who was laughing up at him. Kurt leaned against the doorframe to enjoy the show for a moment. After all, those jeans fit Blaine really well. It was hard for him to keep in his laughter when Blaine changed his voice when different characters sang. The whole scene was adorable and Kurt wished he had a camera. Once Blaine sang the line:
"My manly ways and turn of phrase are sure to THRILL her."
Kurt lost it. He burst out laughing, which nearly caused Blaine to fall off the couch. Blaine turned and gave Kurt a huge smile. Kurt walked over while shaking his head. "Wasn't there some rule about you not jumping on furniture?"
Blaine laughed and jumped down, landing right in front of Kurt. "I guess old habits die hard. You smell good! What is that?" Blaine sniffed at Kurt, completely intoxicated by the smell.
Kurt was blushing at the closeness. "Um. My soap?"
Blaine rolled his eyes. "Well obviously. But what kind?"
"Oh. It's, um, well it's actually er-"
"Why are you getting flustered over a soap?"
Kurt blushed and bit his lip. "It's a woman's brand. It's uh, what my mom used to use. Lavender."
Blaine smiled, hoping to put Kurt at ease. "That's sweet. It smells really good."
"Thanks. So, uh, Mulan?"
Blaine turned back to look at the TV and nodded. "Yeah. One of Ali's favorites."
Kurt raised his eyebrow. "One of Ali's huh?"
"Okay okay. One of mine, but she was enojying herself just as much."
"Of course. Am I ever gonna hear the story of the Freshman year furniture incident?"
Blaine turned and walked away to go sit by Ali, saying over his shoulder, "I have no idea what you're talking about."
Kurt laughed and headed for the kitchen. "I'm gonna start dinner if that's okay?"
"Sure sure. Let me know if you need help? I know I suck at cooking, but I can try?"
"No thanks Blaine. I wanna do this."
Blaine smiled after Kurt and sat back by Ali. Blaine sang along with the movie while Ali played with her various toys. Soon, the most delicious smell started drifting from the kitchen. Blaine got up and walked towards the smell, peeking his head in and seeing Kurt standing at the stove humming while he stirred something. Blaine again had the urge to walk up behind him and wrap his arms around Kurt's waist. Soon. Soon he would be able to do that. Instead, he sniffed at the air loudly, "what is that? It smells amazing!"
Kurt jumped and spun around with his hand at his heart. "Blaine! You scared me!"
"Oops? Sorry! What are you making though? It seriously smells like a five-star restaurant in here."
"Oh. Articoke ravioli with tomatoes. Is that okay?"
"Did I not just say it smells amazing? Because it smells amazing."
Kurt smiled. Lawrence never really complimented his cooking, he always had some sort of critic to give. "It'll be ready in like twenty minutes."
"Anything I can do to help?"
"Uhhh, set the table?"
Blaine nodded and headed to grab plates. This was nice, having someone here to share an actual meal with. He could definitely get used to this. He set the table, making it look extra fancy, hoping Kurt would approve. He decided he'd get a head start at feeding Ali, since she was starting to get fussy, probably from hunger. By the time Ali was sitting in her seat, and Blaine was sitting while he fed her, Kurt came out with the ravioli and started serving him and Blaine. They talked and laughed while they ate and Blaine was melting with each bite he took. The food was amazing and Blaine never wanted to stop eating it.
Kurt's face was on fire from all the compliments Blaine kept throwing his way, he was not used to that at all and didn't know how to react to it. It was definitely starting to bring out his flirty side, so much of the dinner was spent with playful banter. They finished eating and Blaine absolutely insisted on cleaning up. After much persistence, Kurt relented and went to put Ali in some pajamas so she would be ready for bed once she got tired.
After Blaine finished cleaning up the dinner mess, the three of them settled on the couch to watch some bad reality television. Ali was sitting on the couch between Kurt and Blaine, torn between playing with Blaine's belt buckle or the fringe on the hem of Kurt's shirt. Another hour later and Ali was ready for bed. Blaine took her in her room while Kurt got a bottle ready, the whole routine already warming Blaine's heart.
Ali fell asleep before Blaine could even get through the first verse of his song. He set her in her crib and re-joined Kurt in the living room. Kurt smiled at his return. "That was fast!"
Blaine nodded. "I know! Here's to hoping she sleeps the entire night." He sat on the couch, angling his body to face Kurt's.
Kurt tilted his head a little and sighed happily. "Despite everything that happened, today was kinda great."
"It was. Although I'm a bit jealous that David was the one to throw a punch."
Kurt laughed and looked down at his lap. "So um. I was wondering..." He trailed off and played with the bottom of his shirt nervously.
Blaine scooted a little closer and reached out to lift Kurt's chin. "Don't be afraid or embarrassed to talk to me. What were you wondering?"
Kurt's heart skipped a beat at Blaine's gentle touch, but he was still nervous. "I know I don't, but I can't help it. I was just wondering, um, how long you want me to...take?"
Blaine felt his spirits rise a little, but tried to mask his excitement. "I want you to take as long as you need. It's only been a day Kurt."
Kurt laughed a little. "I know, but it's been one of the best days I've had in a long time."
That made Blaine smile and duck his head a little shyly. He hated that he couldn't just tell Kurt that they didn't have to wait, but Kurt needed time to be single for a while. "I'm glad to hear that, you deserve to have everyday be a good day for you. But I think that's why you need a little time. I don't want you to jump into anything with anyone until you can see that it's okay to have good days like this. That you can completely be yourself without worry, or say things without worrying about if it's going to cause a fight. I'll be here for you every step of the way, and once you have your big epihpany, I'll still be here no matter what you decide."
Kurt smiled and reached out to take Blaine's hand, smiling more when Blaine gripped back tightly. "Thank you Blaine." There was a small pause before he added, "but say there was like a timeline?"
Blaine laughed and stroked the back of Kurt's hand with his thumb. "Okay eager mcbeaver. How about, a month?"
Kurt thought for a moment the nodded slowy. "I think that's a good amount of time."
Blaine nodded slowly and the silence stretched again. He smirked at Kurt then groaned. "This is going to be a long month isn't it?"
Kurt laughed and nodded vigorously. "Yes. Yes it will." He looked down at their still joined hands, then lifted them up a little. "Is this okay?"
Blaine looked down at their hands and smiled. "It is with me if it is with you?"
"Perfectly fine with me."
"Good."
They smiled again, both staring at eacher and getting a little lost. After a few moments, Kurt spoke again. "So um, you know how the past few months we haven't really talked about the things that were hard for us? I didn't talk about him..." Blaine nodded a bit catiously, wondering where this was going. Kurt continued. "I think it's time for you to talk about Cooper."
Blaine froze and looked down at his lap. "I don't know if I'm ready Kurt."
Kurt squeezed his hand and ducked his head to try and catch Blaine's eyes. "Blaine. You've been here for me through my issues, let me be there for you too. I'm not going to pressure you to talk if you're really not ready, but I think it would be good for you."
Blaine looked up and gave Kurt a small smile. "I- I don't know really what to say."
"Tell me about him."
Blaine sat up a little straighter and gave Kurt a curious look. "Well um. Cooper is-" He felt a lump rise in his throat. It was time to use the past tense. "Cooper was my everything. We were really close even though there was a ten year age gap. He practically raised me. My parents weren't always around, so it was always me and Coop. When I- when I came out to my parents, Coop was already out of the house and living in Columbus. My dad didn't...react well. I was- I was really upset so I called Cooper. He literally dropped everything. He was on a date and he just- left and drove to me. We spent the whole night in my room. Cooper insisted on asking me about every celebrity I thought was cute then he would cut them out of magazines and hang them all over my room. The best part was when he tried to give me the sex talk. We were both so embarrassed that we just started laughing and once we started we just couldn't stop."
Kurt was smiling sweetly at Blaine's memories, but didn't want to interupt. It seemed now that Blaine started, he couldn't stop. "The next day him and dad got into a big fight. Cooper was yelling about how it shouldn't matter if I like boys, that dad should be proud that I was a model student and never got in trouble."
After that story, they just kept coming. Blaine told Kurt about all of the shenanigans over the years. Eventually a photo album came out and Blaine had a story for every picture in there. He seemed to have talked for hours, laughing his way through most of the stories. Kurt was by him the whole time, laughing and smiling along with Blaine, waiting for the dam to break.
Once Blaine finished telling Kurt a story about a time him and Cooper accidentally started their kitchen on fire in an attempt to cook a Mother's Day breakfast, Blaine stopped talking and stared a picture of him and Cooper. Before he could stop himself, he fell forward and held his face in his hands as sobs tore through him. Kurt immediately pulled him to his chest and Blaine responded by burying his face in Kurt's neck and clinging to him for dear life. Kurt rubbed his back and made soothing noises, knowing Blaine just needed to let it all out. Through his sobs, Blaine choked out a broken "I miss him so much Kurt."
Kurt held Blaine tighter, running his fingers through his hair and rubbing slow circles on his back. After a while, the sobs grew quieter until Blaine was sniffling quietly into Kurt's shirt. He pulled back and gave Kurt a watery attempt at a smile. "I've ruined your shirt."
Kurt shook his head and smiled, reaching out to brush away the tears on Blaine's face. "I don't care about the shirt. Come on, you're taking the bed tonight. You gonna be okay?"
Blaine nodded and pulled Kurt in for another hug. "I think so. Thank you Kurt. You were right. I needed that."
Kurt hugged back tightly then pulled away again. "That's what friends are for, right?" Blaine chuckled a little at that. Kurt stood and pulled Blaine up with him. "Let's get you to bed."
Blaine followed after Kurt, still sniffling. "Wait. I need to brush my teeth and wash up."
Kurt nodded. "Right. I'll grab some of my pajamas and change then we can switch. I need to moisturize."
They parted then got ready for bed seperately. When they were done, Kurt went into Blaine's room to see he was already in bed. "Do you need anything? "
Blaine smiled a little then blushed. "Another hug wouldn't hurt." Kurt laughed and was all to happy to hug Blaine again. He walked over and bent down and Blaine sat up a little to wrap his arms around Kurt. They held on for a while, neither really wanting to part, but eventually Kurt did. "Get some sleep Blaine. I'll get up with Ali in the morning, you sleep until you need to get ready for class."
Blaine groaned. "Ugghh. Class."
Kurt laughed then squeezed Blaine's hand. "Night Blaine."
Blaine sunk into this pillows and gave a contented sigh. "Night Kurt. Thank you."
"No, thank you. See you in the morning."
Blaine smiled again then forced his eyes shut before he asked Kurt to sleep in the bed with him or something equally foolish. He heard Kurt walking away, then the light shut off and the door shut. All the crying Blaine had done made him fall asleep almost instantly. His last thought before he fell asleep was a happy, I love Kurt.
