Kurt sits in Rachels pink sparkly bed with a tub of cookies and cream ice cream.  "I guess some things never change," Kurt thinks as he wallows in the déjà vu moment reminding him of the days he pined for Blaine before they got together when he was hopelessly in love with him and told his woes to Rachel and Mercedes.  He thought this was how he would spend his life now, he would become fat, get cats and watch bad reality tv for the rest of his life to get through his sad and lonely existence.

Rachel looked at her sad friend and searched for words of inspiration and hope.

"Feeling any better?" Rachel asks from her night stand in her pink pajamas adorned with fluffy white sheep.

"Not really, unless numb is better," Kurt says as he takes another heaping spoon of ice cream.

"So, I am not sure if you are ready to hear this, but you do know that this is just an obstacle to overcome in your quest to get Blaine back," Rachel says in a matter a fact tone.

"Rach, he has a boyfriend, hes moved on.  I think the battle is lost."

"Maybe you lost the first battle, but the war is yet to be won Kurt Hummel.  Honestly, did you expect him to be waiting with bated breath for five months alone as you got a clue and reached out to him?  You hardly were alone yourself."

A prang of guilt ran through Kurt and the ice cream was no longer settling so well in his stomach.  He put the ice cream on Rachels night stand and grabbed a pillow to hug for comfort.

"I wasnt happy, I was just surviving.  You of all people know that."

"I do know that Kurt, and whos to say that is not exactly what Blaine is doing?  Were you really expecting him to just welcome you with open arms?  The ball really has been in your court all this time and you refused to start the game."

"I dont know Rachel, what if he is happy?  Havent I put him through enough?"

"I think deep down you know the answer to that question.  You know Blaine and you know what you two had with each other. Do you really think anyone can love Blaine more than you?  Do you really think there is someone better for him?"

Kurt knew that no one could love Blaine Anderson more than him and despite the fact that he knows he treated him badly, he knew that he was Blaines match.  They really were at their best when they loved and supported each other.  He knew Blaine and before he messed it all up he knew how to lift him up to be the best he could be, which Blaine also did for him.  All Kurt wanted was a chance to do that again and love him the way he should be loved.

"So now what Rach, I feel so lost," Kurt says as he squeeze the pillow a bit tighter.

"Well first, we are going to watch ridiculously romantic movies, cry our eyes out, and then we are going to come up with a plan to situate yourself in Blaines life and make him face the fact that he is still in love with you."

"I dont know, Im scared that in the end Ill realize it really is too late."

"Well, I guess then you will, and in the end isnt that at least what you came here to find out.  At the very least maybe you can find a way back to friendship Kurt, because at I know you cant deny you would want Blaine in your life in some way.  You two are kindred spirits, just like me and you.  You dont just let go of people like that in your life once you find them."

Rachel was right, even if he did ruin his chance with Blaine romantically, he couldnt imagine a life without Blaine.  Even separated from each other months at a time, seeing Blaine always brought back a rush of excitement and familiarity that went beyond his deep love for Blaine, it was also being with a person you knew that just got you and knew you for who you truly are.  He was not going to let that go for anything.

"How am I going to do all this in a week?  I havent even secured more work this summer, I still have the apartment to take care of."

"Well, I thought that might come up.  I took the liberty to pay off the rent till the end of the summer.  I realized I kind of left you hanging when I left.  I also thought you could use the summer at home despite the outcome with Blaine.  The lease is up at the end of the summer, maybe then you can decide how you want to move forward."

Rachel once again left him in shock by her generosity. "Rachel, thats too much, and you left the apartment to me and Blaine, thats hardly leaving me hanging and what about my job at Vogue."

"Dont worry about the money Kurt, you know I can afford it.  Its already done and as for your job at Vogue, you know that Charlotte loves you and most of your work has been on Vogue.com, Im sure you can work something out."

"Thanks Rach, that is unbelievable generous of you and I guess I could work something out at work.  This is all so crazy, I hope Im doing the right thing," a rush of fear and excitement runs through him as he wraps his mind around the idea.

"Kurt, are you really going to let some Romeo come and snatch up your man?!  Really, I never thought the Kurt I knew would back down from a challenge from anyone," Rachel said knowing she was bringing out the big guns.

Kurt looks up like as some sort of realization just dawned on him. He throws the pillow aside.

 "Damn it Rachel, why did you let me eat that ice cream?   Ill have to do like a hundred sit ups tonight" Kurt jumps off the bed and pushes Rachel out of the way so he could look at himself in the mirror.  "And my eyes, all this crying has made them all puffy, do you have any cucumbers?!"

"Im on it!"  Rachel says with relief as she leaves the room and heads to the kitchen as Kurt fusses in front of the mirror.
