Nail polish, make up, hair products, candy and similar things were spread out all over the floor in Rachel's bedroom. Kurt was sitting in the middle with the girls around him. All of them were dressed in pajamas and Kurt was working on Tina's hair. Rachel was rambling about her relationship with Finn, but no one seemed to pay attention. Kurt was having a good time. He liked hanging out with the girls. He could just relax and be himself. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Mercedes asked the question that Kurt had been expecting all evening.

"Kurt, what did Blaine get you for your birthday?" All the other girls watched him excitedly as they waited for Kurt to answer. He blushed slightly and his hands stopped working on Tina's hair. He drew a deep breath.

"Blaine woke me up at like five this morning. He said he wanted to be the first one to wish me a happy birthday." The girls let out an 'aww' and Kurt blushed even more and looked down on his hands.

"He had made me breakfast in bed and then he… he gave me two tickets to New York." All the girls gasped. A minute of silence passed and then Mercedes almost crushed him in a tight hug.

"Ohmygod! I swear, I have never seen a cuter couple than you two!" The rest of the girls also hugged him and laughed until Rachel asked.

"Is Burt really okay with this? You two alone in New York, in a hotel room? Together?" Kurt smirked.

"Blaine asked and he said yes. Well, as long as we sleep in separate beds… Not like that's gonna happen though," he added as an afterthought. The girls laughed and after a while slipped back into a conversation about the latest issue of Vouge. Kurt would have joined in, but his thoughts wandered away to Blaine. I wonder what he's doing. Is he thinking about me? His thoughts were interrupted by his phone buzzing. He picked it up and curiously opened his new message.

Are the girls done with you yet? I miss you… –B

Kurt smiled and quickly typed back.

I think you can come over. I miss you, too. Finn isn't torturing you too bad, right? –K

His phone buzzed again after only a few seconds. Wow, Blaine must have been really bored.

Finn isn't that bad… Puck was asking me weird questions earlier and Finn kind of saved me. I just miss you. So, can I come over? –B

Please :) –K

On my way! –B

I'm waiting… –K

Kurt closed his phone and noticed that Mercedes had been watching him texting over his shoulder the whole time. She smiled brightly at him.

"You are so in love." Kurt knew his face was going red, but he smiled because he couldn't deny what she had just said.

"Yeah." She hugged him from behind and then Kurt joined the conversation. But he was constantly waiting for the door bell to ring. And then it finally did. Kurt rose from the floor and rushed to the door. He immediately threw himself at… He hadn't even thought of the fact that Blaine wasn't coming alone, but as soon as he wrapped his arms around his waist, he realized that it wasn't Blaine. This person was a lot taller than Blaine. Kurt immediately backed away and was faced with an incredibly confused and embarrassed Finn. But however awkward it was for Finn, Kurt had it much worse. He was blushing and staring at his brother for some sort of reaction. Finn just went straight by him and upstairs. Rory, who had been standing right next to Finn, was slightly shocked while the rest of the boys were trying to hide their laughter. They followed Finn upstairs and Kurt was left with his boyfriend. Blaine chuckled lightly and wrapped his arms around Kurt in a warm embrace. Kurt buried his head in the shorter boy's shoulder.

"God, that was awkward," he mumbled. Blaine laughed again.

"Just be happy you didn't try to kiss him." Kurt groaned at the thought of kissing Finn.

"Oh, god. Now I won't be able to get that out of my head for months." Blaine smiled at him and chuckled. Then he tilted Kurt's chin up and kissed him. They kissed for a few minutes until all thoughts of Finn had disappeared from Kurt's mind. It was gentle and just a little heated. They didn't notice Santana watching them from the bottom of the stairs.

"You guys done yet?" She asked with a smirk. Both of them blushed and pulled away.

"We'll be up in a sec," said Blaine. Santana winked at them and went back upstairs. Kurt sighed.

"All the awkward things always happen to me…" Blaine smirked and kissed him softly.

"Doesn't matter. I still love you." Kurt grinned, looked lovingly at him and placed another kiss to his lips.

"I love you, too," he said and then started moving towards the stairs. "Come on, let's just say goodbye to them before we leave." Blaine agreed and took his hand.

'Just saying goodbye' ended up with sitting on the floor and chatting with all of the New Directions for another hour. The two boys sat very close, cuddled up together and fingers entwined. Kurt was resting his head on Blaine's chest and listened to his boyfriend's heartbeat, not paying attention to the conversation. They knew they were being the most adorable couple, but that wasn't the reason they did it. They just liked being close to each other, it was as simple as that. Tina and Mike were settled in similar positions, as well as Finn and Rachel. They were all very comfortable, but it was getting late and they all needed to get headed home before curfew. Blaine and Kurt were the first ones to leave. They told everybody goodbye and Kurt got many hugs and final birthday wishes. They drove silently back to Kurt's, their intertwined fingers saying everything and no words needed. When they arrived, Blaine ran to his boyfriend's side of the car and opened the door. Kurt rolled his eyes, but secretly loved the way Blaine was always being a gentleman and Blaine knew that. He helped Kurt out of the car and smiled.

"So, birthday over, huh?"

"Yeah…" He looked up at Blaine. "Thank you."

"For what?"

"For the best birthday ever, for the present, for being mine, for everything."

"I'd do anything to make you happy," said Blaine with a smile. He meant it. Kurt was his whole world.

"I know you would, and that is one of the million reasons why I love you." Kurt looked at him, eyes shining with love.

"I love you, too." They kissed sweet and lovingly, bodies pressed tightly together. Kurt smiled against his lips and gave him a few more small pecks, which Blaine accepted happily.

"I need to get home before curfew," he whispered.

"I know… I'm sorry," said Kurt and pulled back.

"It's okay, babe. I just really need to get going now, even if I don't want to." He pulled Kurt in for a warm hug.

"Happy birthday," he mumbled before letting Kurt go and getting into his car. He gave Kurt one last smile and then drove away. Kurt was left on the driveway, completely drunk of love and happier than he could ever remember being. This really had been the best birthday ever.

He went inside and removed his shoes and jacket. He yawned, exhausted after the long day and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.

"Hey Kurt." His father was leaning against the counter. His face was hard to read and Kurt didn't know if he was in trouble or not.

"Hi dad," he said casually and tried to understand what was going on.

"So, you and Blaine have been dating for over a year," he said, going straight to the point. Kurt nodded, a little confused.

"Yes…"

"Have you boys talked about what you're gonna do when you go to New York?" Kurt frowned. Was his father really going to talk to him about this? Burt seemed to notice his confusion. He stepped forward and looked straight into Kurt's eyes. "Look, Kurt, I know this is none of my business, but I love you, you know. You're my son and I just want you to be happy-"

"I am happy, dad," Kurt interrupted.

"I know you are," said Burt honestly. "I see the way you look at him. And the way he looks at you. I just don't want you to get hurt. He would never hurt you, I know that. But the distance that will be between you might. I just want you to talk to him about this. Because you are planning on staying together, right?"

"We haven't talked about it, but yes. At least, that's what I want," said Kurt.

"Okay, but you need to talk about it. I don't want Blaine to get hurt either. He is a good guy."

"I know," said Kurt with a small smile. "Thank you, dad."

"I just want the best for you. And I really do hope it works while you're in New York because he does make you happy, I can see that." Kurt smiled and then hugged his father.

"I love you, dad."

"I love you too, kiddo. Now get to bed."
