Blaine was bored. Being at the house without Kurt just made it feel dull and empty. Homework long forgotten, Blaine thought he would surprise Kurt with dinner. Of course all he could really cook without it becoming inedible was pasta. Or cereal. He thought it would be best to go with the former.
He was putting the salad and garlic bread on the table when Kurt walked in. "Mmm something smells good."
Blaine smiled. "I made you dinner. I hope you're hungry."
"You? You made dinner? Is it safe?" Kurt joked. Blaine pouted. "I'm just kidding, sweetie. Thank you." Kurt laughed. "Also, that pout got me in trouble today! Don't think I've forgiven you!" He walked over and placed a kiss on Blaine's cheek.
Blaine laughed. "Sorry about that. Not really though." He turned and gave Kurt a kiss on the lips. He pulled the out one of the chairs and waited for Kurt to sit before going around the table and sitting in the opposite chair. "So how was your day?"
"It was fine. Nothing special. Until now, of course." Kurt gave Blaine a bright smile. "Except some guy from class was hitting on me." Kurt wiggled his eyebrows.
"Should I be concerned?" Blaine said, seriously somewhat concerned. Kurt was his first boyfriend. He still had some insecurity.
"Absolutely not. He looked like a meerkat. You are so much hotter."
"I'm glad my looks keep you around." Blaine joked, winking.
They talked about their days and ate Blaine's, surprisingly delicious, dinner. Once they were finished, they headed over to the couch to watch a movie and cuddle. They settled on watching The Wizard of Oz. Dorothy had barely got out of Kansas before Blaine was on top of Kurt, attaching their lips together.
"Remember earlier, I said I had a problem?" Blaine asked in between kisses. Kurt made a humming sound telling him to go on. "I'm fucking addicted to your kisses." Blaine reattached their mouths. He stuck out his tongue and traced Kurt's lips, asking for entrance. Kurt granted and moaned as he sucked Blaine's tongue into his mouth.
Kurt moaned again and reached up to lace his fingers in Blaine's curls and pulled lightly. Blaine could feel the blood rushing south, his erection growing fast. He shifted slightly when it become too uncomfortable, straining against his jeans. As he moved, he felt Kurt's equally hard erection on his leg. Without thinking, he snapped his hips forward and thrust them against Kurt's. Both boys moaned loudly before Kurt stopped and stood up abruptly. Blaine knew he went too far.
"Oh god I'm so sorry! I didn't mean-" Blaine said quickly.
"Blaine, no it's okay. I'm sorry. I'm just-I'm not ready for...that." Kurt said without looking at Blaine. Blaine could tell he was embarrassed.
"You have nothing to be sorry for. I'm not ready either. I just got caught up in the moment and wasn't thinking." Kurt still wouldn't look at Blaine. Blaine walked over and wrapped his arms around Kurt's waist. "Baby, please don't be embarrassed. It was my fault and I'm really sorry."
"It's fine." Kurt twisted out of Blaine's grip. He gave Blaine a small smile. "It's fine." He said once more before he turned around, walked into his bedroom and shut the door.
Blaine sat down on the couch. He felt bad for putting Kurt in that position but he also felt a little rejected, which made him feel worse. Of course Kurt wasn't ready. He wasn't ready either. It was just one of those urges he couldn't control.
Blaine, what the fuck is wrong with you? You literally just got together. Don't screw this up, if you haven't already. "Fuck!" Blaine shouted and stormed into his bedroom.
Kurt felt awful for walking away from Blaine, but he didn't know what else to do. He felt so embarrassed. Blaine probably thought he was some pathetic prude. That's not true and you know it, Blaine would never think about you like that.
Kurt heard Blaine yell and slam his door. He curled into himself on his bed. Blaine probably hated him now. He was going to break up with him and fine someone better, someone who wouldn't overreact over stupid things. Stop Kurt! Just go talk to him.
Kurt knew he was blowing this whole thing out of proportion. All he needed to do was go see Blaine and tell him he was sorry and that everything was okay. But he couldn't do that now, not after how he reacted.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath when his phone rang. He didn't even look to see who it was.
"Hello?" Kurt said, eyes still closed.
"Kurt! How's New York? Is it positively amazing? I mean, it's probably pretty dull since I'm not there with you." Rachel's voice rang out of the earpiece.
Rachel had planned to go to New York with Kurt. They were going to get an apartment, go to NYADA, and become stars. Only neither of them got into NYADA. Kurt had planned for that and applied to multiple schools. Rachel, on the other hand, had not. So she was stuck in Ohio for now.
"Rachel." Kurt said as he rolled his eyes. He wasn't really in the mood to talk to her. "New York is wonderful. I do miss you, though."
"I miss you, too. I'm saving up all my money so I can get out there as soon as possible. The Lima Bean doesn't pay much though, so it might be a while. I keep insisting that I do performances during the busy hours, I know my voice will increase business, but they keep turning me down." Kurt let Rachel ramble on about her 'immaculate talents and how they could benefit the world'. Conversations with Rachel were always like this. He started to zone out until he heard Rachel say a certain someone's name. "So tell me about this Blaine."
"What?" Kurt didn't tell Rachel about Blaine and she wasn't speaking to Finn so she couldn't have found out from him.
"I said tell me about Blaine! That is your roommates name, right?"
Kurt sighed in relief. He didn't want Rachel to know about his relationship with Blaine. Not yet. Not until Blaine was ready to come out. "Oh yeah. He's nice."
"What's his last name?"
"Uh Anderson. Why?"
Rachel didn't answer for a minute. "Ooh he's attractive! And he plays guitar! I wonder if he can sing. Wait! There are pictures of him here with the Warblers! That glee club we beat a couple years ago!"
"Rachel, are creeping his Facebook?"
"You know, I'd bet we'd be perfect for each other. Oh but it says he's in a relationship. Has he mentioned any girlfriend to you? Have you met her?"
Kurt stopped listening after 'relationship'. Blaine put he was in a relationship on Facebook? Kurt quickly opened his laptop and went to his Facebook. Sure enough there it was.
Blaine Anderson is in a relationship.
4 hours ago.
13 people like this.
Kurt wasn't sure why this made him so happy. It was just Facebook after all. But it did. Nobody knew he was gay. This must have been a big step for him, even if it didn't say that it was Kurt he was in a relationship with. People were going to ask questions Blaine about his significant other. Blaine had to know that, yet he still put it on there.
Four hours ago. That was while he was at school, before their embarrassing moment a little while ago. Kurt really needed to go see Blaine.
"Kurt! Are you listening to me?" Rachel yelled.
"Sorry Rach, I have to go. I'll call you later." Kurt hung up the phone before Rachel could say anything else. He closed his laptop and left his room. Once he was in front of Blaine's door, he knocked lightly.
"Yeah?" Kurt heard Blaine say from the other side of the door. He opened it slowly and peeked his head inside.
Blaine was on his bed with his glasses on and doing what Kurt assumed was homework. "Can I come in?" He asked in quiet tone.
"Of course." Blaine sat up a little. Kurt walked over to the bed and quickly hopped on and curled himself into Blaine. He felt Blaine take a deep breath. "I'm really sorry Kurt. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable."
"Please don't be sorry. I know you didn't. I overreacted and I'm sorry."
Blaine kissed the top of Kurt's head. "Like I said earlier, you have nothing to be sorry for." Blaine put his hand under Kurt's chin and lifted it so their eyes met. "I know we're not ready, and I would never, ever push you to do anything you don't want to do. Okay?"
Kurt smiled and nodded his head. "Okay." They were quite for a couple of minutes when Kurt spoke again. "So Facebook tells me you're in a relationship now."
Kurt felt Blaine's chest vibrate as he laughed. "Well Facebook does not lie."
"Is that safe to do though? People are going to ask you about this person."
"I know. I may not be ready to tell people about me, Kurt but I'm not going to hide you either." Blaine laughed. "That doesn't really make any sense when I say it out loud. I'm not going to deny I'm with someone. Someone amazing, beautiful, and perfect." Kurt felt those damn butterflies again. "I may not give them specifics, yet. But I won't deny you. Ever."
Kurt lifted his head and gave Blaine kiss. It was too soon to say it out loud, but in that moment, he knew he had fallen in love with Blaine Anderson.
The next day the boys decided to go to The Coffee Shop for a coffee date/study session. They had been there for an hour doing homework and having the occasional small conversation. Blaine, once again bored with doing homework, decided to check his Facebook for a minute.
He logged on to see a few notifications, one message and one friend request. He checked the notifications first. Nothing important, just 'likes' on his status and old Warbler friends posting on his wall. He'd answer them later. Next he checked the friend request. Rachel Berry? He had no idea who she was, so he ignored it for now and went to the message, which also happened to be from Rachel Berry.
Blaine Warbler!
My name is Rachel Berry. I was the very talented lead soloist for the New Directions the year we beat The Warblers at Regional's. I'm sure you remember us. How could you not? Anyway, as you being Kurt's roommate, and I being Kurt's best friend, I thought it would be polite to introduce myself. Maybe one day when I come to New York we could use our talent and make something magical. I'm sure I will talk to you soon.
Rachel Barbra Berry
Blaine stared at the screen for a while. "Uh Kurt?"
"Hm?"
"Who's Rachel Berry and why does she want to make something magical with me?"
Kurt's head snapped up and his eyes were wide. "What are you talking about?" Blaine pushed his laptop over to Kurt so he could see Rachel's message. Blaine watched as his eyes read over the words. "Oh god. Please ignore her. She's crazy."
Blaine laughed. "She said she was your best friend."
"Well, yeah she is. But that doesn't make her any less insane. Do not respond to her. Yesterday she was talking about breaking you and your significant other up so that maybe she had a chance."
Blaine gave Kurt a confused look. "You didn't tell her that that significant other was you?"
"Of course not. Rachel has the biggest mouth in the world. She'd probably post it all over Facebook. I don't want to risk something getting out to someone when you're not ready."
Blaine looked at Kurt with adoration. "Thank you, Kurt. I will come out. Sometime soon, I promise."
Kurt reached over and grabbed Blaine's hand. "Only when you're ready Blaine. Anyway, Rachel's crazy and you should just ignore her."
Blaine laughed again. "Has she always been this conceited?"
"Yep. Ever since I've known her. I actually couldn't stand her for the longest time. We became close junior year. I still ask myself why I let that happen."
Blaine was about to respond when he heard a voice behind him. "Well if it isn't Mr. Hummel." Blaine froze. He knew that voice. He knew that voice way too well.
"Sebastian." Kurt said in a bitter tone. Please no. Please, please, please no. Blaine didn't dare turn around.
"Fancy seeing you here. Getting into more trouble? Wait is that-" Sebastian walked to the other side of the table. "Holy shit. Blaine Anderson."
"You two know each other?" Kurt asked looking between Blaine and Sebastian.
This is NOT happening. "Sebastian. What are you doing here? I thought you were going to OSU." Blaine said looking up towards Sebastian but avoided making eye contact.
"I decided I wanted a change from Ohio. To answer your question, Hummel, Blaine and I went to high school together."
Blaine looked at Kurt. He was hoping Kurt didn't remember him telling him that Sebastian was the reason he realized he was gay. How could he not remember that? Kurt's face changed from confused to shocked. He remembered.
"How do you know Kurt?" Blaine asked Sebastian not being able to look at Kurt anymore.
"So that's your name. Damn, I really liked thinking of you as just 'Mr. Hummel'. We have a journalism class together. He was being very naughty." Sebastian winked. That's when Blaine remembered Kurt talking about the guy who hit on him in class. Blaine almost threw up in his mouth. Of course it was Sebastian. "Wow, Blaine Anderson. I never thought I'd see you again. I have to run but let's keep in touch." He grabbed a napkin and a pen off the table and wrote down his number. "See you in class, Mr. Hummel."
Blaine didn't say anything as Kurt watched Sebastian leave the coffee shop. "So meerkat was the dream boat that made my boyfriend realize he was gay. Maybe I should thank him." Kurt said.
Blaine couldn't tell if Kurt was angry or not. He really hoped not. 'Kurt, I swear to you that Sebastian never meant anything to me and everything I feel for you is so much more-"
Blaine stopped when he heard Kurt laughing. "Babe stop. I'm not upset." Blaine relaxed. "I find it quite funny, actually. I saw your face when he was here. Obviously you didn't want to see him. I do remember you saying something about him being a 'pretentious douche'. I couldn't agree with you more."
Blaine laughed now. "Yeah. He was pretty much the school sleaze ball. And he was always trying to take my solos. It doesn't really surprise me that he hit on you, though. You are pretty sexy."
Blaine leaned over the table and pulled Kurt into a kiss. Neither boy noticed the foreign phone that was left on the table or Sebastian walking back in to the coffee shop and witnessing everything.

great chapter!
Well... fuck.I really hope they will be able to figure something out...Amazing chapter, as always!
And of course, as Sebastian in this fic seems so like the Glee one, he will likely blackmail Blaine or just spread rumours :-(
