Chapter two

".. I can't have him on my section! I just can't!"

"This is not your decicion Kurt! It's mine. And you are the best. So you're stuck with him!"

Kurt rolled his eyes at his boss' words, why. Just why couldn't he understand that he did not want to work with Blaine? It had only been four days, and he was already driving Kurt insane. Yesterday he asked him how to rake.. rake.. One of the most simple things ever.
And this morning he was so slow, Kurt could've swore it was on purpose. He heard a weak week voice and flinced.

"If I'm.. I mean.. I don't wanna cause you any trouble or anything."

That was just.. Pathetic. Don't wanna cause any trouble.. Well, that was a bit too late now.

"Just.. Let's get to work.."

As Kurt walked towards the stables, he could feel the boy lacking behind, walking so slow that he almost turned around and yelled at him. But he had to stay calm, had to pull himself together and try to play nice. He turned around and was met by a sad look on the boys face. Now what? Was he really that sensitive.

He tried to shake the need to help the boy away, but, those eyes. There was just something about those eyes. There was just no stopping him when I finally asked.

"Something bothering you?

GOD! Why did he have to be so ni... polite?
The boy shook his head.

"I just have this feeling that.. I don't know.. That you really don't like me?" The boy let out a sigh "I mean, at first I thought it was just because.. It was the first day or something but... You really don't like be, do you?"
The boy looked at him, as though he hoped for another answer than he expected.

"I thought we already had this... talk or whatever... Nothing personal, but... guys like you, you come here, and leave when you just feel like it. It's really nothing I want to waste my time on"

"oh"

"look... I can try to play the good guy here... But you really have to pull your act together and make an effort. Cause I'm not the kind of person that wastes my time. Alright?"

The boy looked at him, his eyes light up. Why did they even do that? It wasn't like he had a pledge to be his forever, he just said he would try to work it out with him. He hated feeling like this. Like he lost the upper hand. He somehow had to regain it. But how? He had to work out some sort of plan. He had a lot of thinking to do. But for now. There was work.

Kurt woke up with sweat running down his face, it hadn't been a nightmare. But the content of the dream. Kurt couldn't get it out of his head. Why did his subconscious have to have those thoughts? About... him...
He felt a warm hand on his back.

"What's wrong baby? Bad dream?" His boyfriend sat up, looking concerned.

"it was... it was nothing... really.. lets just go back to sleep"

"Well.. we are awake now.. we could always..."

Kurt slapped his hands away "Oh god NO! just.. NO. sleep.."

"Come on babe, you're already half hard.. and I mean.. It's been soo long."

"It's been four days. And I just don't.. Feel like it right now. Just.. let me sleep"

What was happening to him? That Blaine guy really HAD to get out of his head. He couldn't even get himself to be with his boyfriend. That wasn't normal at all. Was it?
Maybe it was just because they had been together since high school. And Blaine. Blaine was young. And good looking.  And just so innocent. Everything about him spoke to Kurt. But he couldn't have those thoughts. Specially not with his boyfriend next to him. He had to forget about him. And besides. He probably wasn't even gay..
Why was he even thinking that? Why would he even think about Blaine's sexuality?

He had to get his act together in order to get through this.
Luckily he would wake up. And it would be Friday. And he could spend his weekend. Not being annoyed with how adorable Blaine looked.

For some reason he found himself having another discussion with his boss. But this time, it was because Blaine had come to him, asking to get on another section. Alan assumed that this was Kurt's idea, but really. He did just tell the boy that he was going to be ‘nice'. So why in the world was he standing here. Taking one verbal slap after another? God that Blaine guy was in so much trouble when they got down to the stables.

"...but because it was his own request. I will let him change sections.. He will be with Puck on the lion section from now on"

"Wait WHAT!? Lions. Why.. Why would he even wanna be on lions?" He stood in a second of surprise by his own reaction

"I mean. Of course they are... Predators and all. But elephants are much cooler!"

Why was he suddenly arguing against Blaine being off his hands?

"Kurt. I... You're saying that you don't want him to leave your sections? Is that it? Cause that is definitely what I'm hearing"

"Look.. Alan. I know I may have wanted to get rid of him. And that I might had the urge to strangle him. Several times. But you see.. I see something in that boy.." Kurt coughed. What was he saying!? "I mean. Professionally... of course"

Alan looked confused. And cleared his throat

"Okay then. Uhm.. Blaine will be with puck today. But he will return to your service on Monday."

Kurt nodded.

"Sounds good to me"  As he and Alan parted, and Kurt walked towards the elephants house, he started planning in head.
He didn't know why he did that. But he just had to be close to that boy as much as he could.

Now his problem was just. How to keep his hands off him...
