There was a knock on the door hours later. Kurt woke up and swore, looking at the time.
"Blaine! Blaine, wake up! People are arriving!"
"Fuck!" Blaine swore and sat up quickly. "Eh... You go shower and I'll go fix the food." Luckily, they had prepared most of the food earlier, but they still had so much to fix. Blaine dressed in the first outfit he could find and then rushed to open the door.
"Go inside, make yourself at home. I have to fix the food!" He left a confused Nick and Jeff in the doorway. The two men followed Blaine through to the kitchen.
"Where's Kurt?" Nick asked, starting to help Blaine.
"Can he see? Did it work? Can we see him?" Jeff chattered, pulling himself up to sit on the work top. Blaine grinned.
"It worked. He has to wear glasses though, but he looks hot in them and they're not a problem." Blaine leaned against the counter. "Also..." He bit his lip. "I proposed to him." Jeff squealed.
"Oh my god, that's amazing! He said yes right? When are you getting married? Can I be best man?"
"That's wonderful, Blaine," Nick smiled, calmly covering his boyfriend's mouth. "I'm so happy for you both. You deserve it." Kurt had been Nick's best friend every since he'd roomed with him at Dalton, he loved him like a little brother. Blaine laughed.
"He said yes. I'm just so happy..." Blaine teared up slightly at the thought of their wedding. Then he felt a hand slip into his and Kurt was at his side. He smiled even wider. "Hey baby," he said and kissed Kurt's cheek. Kurt turned to their friends a little warily. He hadn't been around anyone but Blaine and the doctor since he got his sight back.
"Nick? Jeff?"
"Ohmygod, Kurt! You can see us! You can see us!" Jeff squealed and wrapped his arms around Kurt in a tight embrace. He pulled back after a moment and laughed. "This is amazing!" Nick was tearing up when Kurt looked at him. He stepped forward and hugged his friend warmly.
"I'm so happy for you..."
"Thank you..." Kurt smiled. "You're both gorgeous. Though you need to ease up on the hair dye, Jeff. It'll all fall out if you're not careful." Blaine laughed.
"Oooohh, snap!" Jeff pouted.
"Hey, my natural hair was turning brown. I want to be blonde!" Kurt rolled his eyes.
"We'll go out and find you some organic dye, okay?" The doorbell went again and Kurt moved to answer it, limping slightly which made Nick glare at Blaine.
"What did you do to my little brother?" Blaine shrugged and blushed a little.
"We both might have lost our virginities this morning..." Nick just grinned at him.
Blaine prepared the food quickly. When he was done, he turned to Nick again.
"So, how are things with you and Jeff? Still going strong?"
"Yeah," Nick sighed a little sadly, watching Jeff talk to Kurt and the newly arrives Trent and Thad. "I want to propose to him, but his parents don't make it easy. I think his dad would beat him to death if I even tried." This wasn't an exaggeration. The amount of times Jeff had come to school bruised because of his homophobic father was ridiculous. Blaine put a hand on Nick's shoulder.
"I'm so sorry. You know, you could just... run away. Move to LA, New York or something. You're both legal."
"Yeah... But we have friends here, and jobs. I don't know what to do. I wish I could get him out of that house and living with me, but he's terrified of his dad." Blaine bit his lip.
"I know... But the most important thing is that you're both safe. We'll always be your friends, no matter what you decide to do, Nick."
"Yeah I know..." Nick sighed.
An hour later, the party was in full swing. All of the Warblers were so happy for Kurt and he was having the time of his life. The doorbell went off and Jeff peeled away from the group to answer it.
"Well, if it isn't Sterling. Looking as pathetic as ever I see," Sebastian's cold voice drawled. He sounded very drunk.
"Go away, Sebastian," Jeff muttered sadly. Sebastian reminded him of his dad. "You weren't invited."
"I don't need an invitation." Sebastian pressed by Jeff and immediately grabbed a beer. When Blaine saw Sebastian leaning against the wall, his eyes went dark.
"What the fuck are you doing here? You bastard!"
"I told you I'd be dropping by. How is the cripple?" Thad and Nick caught sight of Sebastian and snarled, moving to flank Blaine.
"Get out," Thad snarled. "You're not ruining today for Kurt."
"I told you, Sebastian. If you got here, I'd call the cops. I'll be happy to do that if you're not out of here within one minute," Blaine gritted through his teeth.
"I don't think you will," Sebastian smirked. "My father's pretty influential down at the police station." He brushed past them all and headed straight for Kurt who turned around and frowned, unsure of to who he was.
"Hey,” he smiled uncertainly. "And you're...? Sorry, I'm still putting voices to faces." Blaine saw Sebastian walk up to Kurt. He nudged Nick in the side.
"Tell Kurt who he is. I have to make a call." Blaine walked away and dialed Daniel's number. He had been given the officer's number for emergencies. "Daniel, I need your help..."
"Sure, what's happening, Blaine? Is everything okay?"
Nick moved to Kurt quickly, wrapping his arm around his waist.
"It's Sebastian, Kurt," he whispered gently.
"Aww, come on Kurt! Let's dance!" It was obvious that Sebastian was drunk. He pulled Kurt into his arms and used his strength to keep him there. Kurt panicked, trying to pull away as he felt Sebastian's erection against his hip. "You know, Hummel," Sebastian laughed cruelly. "I always thought you looked a little too much like a girl for my liking, but I'd happily give you a good fucking if you asked. A little present before I take Blaine from you." Meanwhile, Blaine was still talking to Daniel across the room.
"I need you to get to mine and Kurt's apartment. Fast. A guy called Sebastian Smythe is here. He's not welcome. He's been bullying Kurt for ages and-" When Blaine saw Sebastian pressed up against Kurt, he dropped the phone and ran across the room. Daniel could hear everything happen.
"Let go of him, you fucking idiot!” Blaine tried to tear Kurt away from Sebastian, but the other man was too strong.
Daniel was already on his way, driving way faster than the speed limits allowed.
Kurt was sobbing, trying desperately to break away from Sebastian. He reminded strongly of Karofsky two years ago. The other Warblers were trying to help, but Sebastian was too drunk and too strong. There was a knock on the door. Blaine rushed to open it and let Daniel in.
"Thank god you're here," Blaine breathed. Daniel nodded. He had been around the neighborhood and it had only taken him minutes to get there. He was immediately sure of who the guy Blaine had talked about was. Daniel walked up to him. "I'm Officer Daniel Adams," he said firmly. "You need to let go of that boy right now.”
"Officer Adams," Sebastian grinned, grinding into Kurt once more. "If you want to keep your job, I'd just go away if I were you. You have no idea who my father is." Daniel looked at the boy with a frown. Was this the son of...? Oh yes, this had to be Sebastian Smythe. It all made sense now. Mr. Smythe was his boss. Actually, he was the boss of all cops in the whole god damn state.
"I know who your father is. It still doesn't matter. Let. Go. Of. Him." Sebastian rolled his eyes, pushing Kurt backwards. The sobbing, disorientated boy nearly fell, but Nick caught him, wrapping him up in a soothing hug, seeing Blaine was too furious to do so.
"I was just dancing with him, Adams," Sebastian frowned. "I will be getting you fired." Sebastian tried to stumble out of the room, but he ended up crashing into a table. He was too drunk to walk straight.
"Actually," said Daniel and pulled out a pair of handcuffs. "You won't. You've been breaking the law, Smythe." He locked Sebastian’s hands behind his back. "You're coming with me to the station."
"I didn't break any fucking laws,” he snarled, taking a step towards the door. Jeff blocked his path. "Move your pathetic ass, Sterling."
"No," Jeff growled, standing up to Sebastian for the first time ever.
"What you did is considered sexual abuse and harassment." Daniel took a firm grip of Sebastian and then led him out the door. Before closing it behind him, he said. "Thanks for calling, Blaine. I'll come back to check on you guys as soon as Smythe is in safe hands." Blaine didn't say anything back, he just walked up to Kurt and hugged him tightly.
"Kurt, I'm so sorry..."
"It's okay," Kurt whispered, shaking badly in Blaine's arms. "It's not your fault, it's just..." He took a deep shuddering breath. "I know it's stupid. I know it happened years ago and it's nothing, b-but it reminded me of Karofsky..." Nick moved forwards, putting a gentle hand on Blaine's shoulder.
"Do you want us to go?" he asked softly. Blaine looked at Kurt.
"Do you want them to leave, honey? Maybe you want to be alone?" Kurt nodded.
"Is that okay? I'm sorry."
"Don't worry," Nick whispered, kissing Kurt's cheek. "We understand. Me and Jeff willl come here tomorrow to hang out, okay?"
"That's fine, guys. Thank you. We'll see you tomorrow," said Blaine while still holding Kurt close. Their friends left the apartment quickly and Kurt and Blaine were alone. Kurt was still shaking in Blaine's arms. "It's okay, baby. He's gone now. He's gone..."
"I'm sorry..." Kurt whispered. "I know it's stupid to be this upset." Blaine shook his head.
"It's not stupid, Kurt. Didn't you hear what Daniel said? He was even breaking the law. Sexual abuse and harassment. It's not stupid to be upset." Kurt nodded uncertainly.
"Why was he even here?" Blaine figured it was best to just be honest.
"He wants me. He thinks I deserve 'better' than you." Like there is anything better than you, he almost added, but thought it would sound too cheesy and faked.
"I hate him," Kurt whispered. "Thank you for calling Daniel..."
"It's nothing, honey. It was the first thing that came to my mind." Blaine hugged Kurt again. "I hope that bastard ends up in prison." Kurt nodded nervously.
"He was hard, Blaine..."
"He was also drunk. And he's an idiot." He held Kurt close for a few minutes, whispering sweet words in his ear. "Do you want to sleep?" he asked after a while. Kurt shook his head.
“Can we... Can we watch a film? I haven't seen one since I was four..."
"You pick one," Kurt whispered. "I just want to cuddle up with you and watch..." Blaine put in Notting Hill.
"This is my favorite. It's cute and adorable, just like you," he said and smirked. Kurt curled up with his head in Blaine's lap.
"I'm sorry I ruined the party..."
"Don't say that, baby," said Blaine and massaged Kurt's head gently. "No more apologies, okay?"
"’Kay..." Kurt purred as Blaine played with his hair. The minute the film started, he was entranced, and he barely even blinked.
When the movie ended, Blaine leaned down to kiss Kurt softly.
"Did you like it?" Kurt nodded, eyes wide.
"I can't believe everything I've been missing!"
"I'll just have to show you everything then," Blaine whispered and kissed him again. Kurt nodded, moaning into the kiss. There was a knock on the door and Kurt jumped, gripping Blaine before he realized it would be Daniel.
"Relax, honey. I'll get it." Blaine stood up and walked towards the door. He opened it and found Daniel outside. "Hey," said Blaine kindly. "Thank you so much for coming before."
"No problem. Can I see Kurt? Is he okay?" Daniel asked gently.
"He's okay. He was kind of shaken before, but he's in the living room now. You can go see him." Blaine walked with Daniel to the living room. Kurt looked up as Daniel entered the room.
"Hey,” he smiled softly. "Thank you for before. What's going to happen to Sebastian?"
"Actually," said Daniel and smiled. "This case will be going to court. My guess is that he'll end up with a few months in prison, but..." Daniel bit his lip and looked into Kurt's eyes. "If that's going to happen, you need to testify." Blaine sat down next to Kurt and took his hand, knowing that this would be hard for him to take in. Kurt's eyes widened.
"I... I mean it really wasn't a big deal..."
"It might not seem like it, but it was. And you said he's been doing similar things before?" he asked Blaine, who just nodded. "So yes, it is a big deal." He paused a little and looked into Kurt's blue eyes. "Kurt, do you think he deserves prison?" Kurt hesitated but nodded slightly, his vivid eyes were terrified.
"Kurt..." said Blaine, turning to his fiancé and taking both of his hands in his. "You don't have to be scared." Then a thought flashed through his mind. "Don't I have to testify as well?" Daniel nodded.
"We would prefer that, yes."
"Okay..." Kurt whispered. "I think I can do it..."
"You can do anything." Blaine and squeezed his hand. "So, where's Sebastian right now?" he asked Daniel.
"He's on bail," Daniel sighed. "His father really is influential, but according to the terms of his bail, he can't come near you." Blaine nodded.
"That's good. I hope I never have to see him again. Ugh." Daniel turned to Kurt, smiling.
"So, how does it feel to be able to see?"
"Amazing," Kurt whispered, smiling shyly. "And Blaine proposed." He held up his hand to show the ring. Blaine slid an arm around Kurt's waist to pull him closer.
"Sure did." Daniel grinned broadly.
"That's amazing, boys. I'm so happy for you two! Am I invited to the wedding?" he winked.
"Mhm," Kurt nodded. "We're thinking a winter wedding."
"I think that would be perfect," said Daniel, still smiling. Blaine leaned over to kiss Kurt's cheek. Daniel was so amazed by these boys. Their relationship didn't have a single flaw. It was just perfect. Kurt needed Blaine so much and he was devoted to him in every way, that was very clear. And Daniel knew that Blaine had had some hard times when he was younger, too. He needed Kurt like he needed air. He smiled at the two boys again. They were truly and deeply in love, anyone could see that.
"Well, I think I need to get going." He stood up. "Take care of yourselves. I'll call you when it's time to start preparing for court." Kurt nodded.
"Okay. Talk soon, Daniel. And thank you again." Daniel flashed them one more smile before leaving the apartment.
