Gladly his last two periods past in a haste.
He always aced everything in European History and as he was in a good mood he was also motivated enough to answer every question his teacher gave them correctly.
Biology wasn't exactly one of his favorite subjects but they talked about Evolution and that was at least something interesting.
He had texted Blaine back telling him that, his idea sounded just fine but that they should chat later as they really needed to concentrate on school for the moment.
Some part of him, the part that didn't care about grades and what his teachers thought, wanted Blaine to tell him, that he didn't care about school but about talking to Kurt.
All he got as an answer though was a "Gosh Kurt. I'm so sorry. You're totally right! Talk to you later. Have a nice day. :) - Blaine" which was totally cute on the one hand and totally not satisfying on the other.
After that he met up with the glee boys once more to see how far they had come with their mash-up.
They hadn't come far. There seemed to be no way to fit the songs they had decided on together and after another fruitless hour of trying Puck threw in the towel declaring that this was pointless and that he had to get ready as he and Artie would get the sexy on with Santana and Brit this evening. Kurt only rolled his eyes, especially as they fist pumped after that.
They gave up on trying shortly after. Finn told them to think about new mash-up ideas over the weekend. The girls would be performing Monday as Rachel had told him. Kurt felt that none of the boys were keen on losing and even if they weren't keen on working either they would do what it took to win.
They left the room, Puck talking to Artie about their date, Finn and Sam discussing football while Mike was back to staring into blank space, even though he managed a nod and a smile as Kurt passed him.
As far as Kurt was concerned he was simply content with the beautiful feeling of the arriving weekend as he got into his car to drive home.
After checking on his dad, he spent the afternoon doing homework, before Carole and Finn came over for Friday night's dinner.
Kurt enjoyed the time with his dad and kind of family. Burt, Carole and Finn noticed that Kurt was more cheerful than usual which lightened the entire atmosphere.
After dinner Kurt finished his moisturizing routine, while the others were still watching something on TV, and settled onto his bed with his phone and laptop. The room was filled with the sound of his IPod blasting Teenage Dream and his heart jumped a little as he took his mobile into his shaking hands. Facebook was open on his screen but Blaine wasn't online. Kurt had suggested to chat later... so a short text asking him if he wanted to wasn't something special, right? He did it with Tina or Mercedes all the time. Just a short "hey. U online? :)" and then a yes... or no. He couldn't get something worse than a no and ... okay yeah that would be horrible but still it could also be a yes.
He decided that taking the risk was a better, than turning the idea over in his head all night and going insane in the progress and shot Blaine a short message.
He closed his eyes, letting himself be distracted by the upbeat show tune that came on after Katy Perry. It was disturbed by a sound from his computer and as he glanced down he saw that Blaine had messaged him via Facebook.
Blaine Anderson:
Good evening Kurt. How was your day? I hope you managed to pay attention after I didn't bug you any longer.
Kurt cringed. Giving Blaine the impression of being annoying was the last thing he wanted to do. Quite the opposite. Hearing from him was very welcome.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
You didn't bug me. Like AT ALL. I just really couldn't concentrate when there was the possibility of you texting me.
Holy Gaga. That sounded like he had the hardest crush ever. Not good. That was the problem with chatting in opposition to texting. There you could take your time. He hurried to come up with something to take the tension out of what he had said. It was already two minutes since Kurt had massaged Blaine. A true indication that the other half of this conversation was lost for words. Darn.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
I mean like I'm always afraid that my phone will vibrate right that moment when everyone is quite and the teacher notices and I do have these beasty teachers who smile sweetly while reading your texts out loud. Nightmare.
Better. Hopefully...
Blaine Anderson:
Haha. Yeah I totally get that. I was so close to being caught texting in geometry. :/ Lucky me that one of my fellow students chose this moment to break a chair. Otherwise I'd have been screwed!
Kurt laughed, shaking his head while he tried to imagine what the hell might have happened.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
He broke a chair? How did he manage that?!
Blaine Anderson:
I really have no idea! I mean, I was focused on you ;) But I had just put my phone in my pocket and looked up to see my teacher approaching and was like "Dammit!" when I heard a loud crack from the front and everyone just snapped their heads to look and there was this guy lying on his back totally out of it and my teacher was rushing towards him and everybody was laughing and I was like "thank god!"
Kurt laughed again. That sounded pretty hilarious.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Gosh! Was he hurt? Why did the chair break?
Blaine Anderson:
No he was fine. Shocked for sure and I guess he will have some minor bruises but nothing serious... I saw two of my friends high fiving each other after the chair broke. I'm suspicious. But if they had sth to do with it I guess I really don't wanna know! xD
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Lol. Seriously? Friends of urs do stuff like that? The guys I met? O.o
Kurt couldn't imagine these two guys doing something like that. They seemed too... put together.
Blaine Anderson:
Haha. No those not for sure! They can be... a pain in the neck but they are pretty into rules. Besides I don't have any classes with them :( Wes is already a senior and David a junior. And come on! Everyone knows someone who'd do stuff like that!
Kurt thought off Puck. Yeah. Guess Blaine was right.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
You have a point there Anderson. I do know one or two people -.- Nearly all the kids in glee are juniors... though I don't have any classes with my best friend. You're a sophomore right?
Blaine Anderson:
Jeff and Nick are always up for some trouble though they are very focused on the Warblers, too and good in school. That sucks. Sorry to hear that. But at least with friends right? Yes I am a sophomore. Thumbs up for doing your homework and stalking my profile ;)
Kurt's cheeks got hot. He hadn't stalked Blaine's profile! He had planned to... but he hadn't had time yet. So he hadn't stalked it! He felt something terrible coming his way.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
I didn't stalk you. I just guessed as you aren't a junior or a senior and you just couldn't be a freshman... I mean I would even have thought you older than a sophomore. A junior, maybe even a senior!
He was rambling. He hated it.
Blaine Anderson:
Haha Kurt I'm just kidding! I didn't mean that in a bad way. It's kinda sad but that's what Facebook is for. And while we are talking about stalking I should tell you, Kurt Elizabeth Hummel, that I, too really enjoy musicals, especially Hairspray and Grease, I, too, have a standing order for Vogue magazine and the last movie I saw was Easy A.
Kurt's mouth hang open. He was positive that he had liked all those things. Realization hit him.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
You stalked me.
He couldn't get a grasp on that thought.
Blaine Anderson:
I'd call it research ;)
Blaine had stalked him whatever he was saying. His stomach made a very funny but not unpleasant swoop at that thought.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
You stalked me. :D
Blaine Anderson:
Well, yes I did. Sue me for being interested in you ;)
"Blaine thinks I'm interesting". The thought shot through Kurt's head and made him feel dizzy.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
I'll think about it... though at least now I have a good excuse to do likewise ;) What you're doing right now?
Blaine answered quickly.
Blaine Anderson:
Going through your like pages. Found something interesting.
He sent him a link and as Kurt clicked it he had to cough hard to stop from choking. It was the New Directions fan page. If you could call it fan page with 20 likes. Not even all of the members had liked it! Rachel had put it up and published information, pictures and videos. God not all of them where what he'd call presentable.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Who's spying now?
He tipped, hoping that that would stop Blaine from taking a closer look at the content of this page.
Blaine Anderson:
Oh no. You won't come of that easy. It's not a closed group. Everyone can watch it and so it's not spying ;)
He had a point there. Rachel's fault if she made spying on them that easy...
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Maybe. Found anything good?
Blaine Anderson:
Maybe. :D You're quite the Journey fan, aren't you?
Kurt sighed.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Well Mr. Schue is... me... not so much xD
Blaine Anderson:
Your choir director? I see. Facebook tells me that you rather like Gaga, Madonna and Brittney Spears though. So you're into pop music?
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Stop stalking me! XD Ask if you want to know something. And yes. I love good pop music made by revolutionary artists. They all brought something new and edgy to pop music. They inspire me.
Sooo what do you like? I mean besides Katy Perry. And I ask because I like talking more than stalking ;)
Blaine Anderson:
Touché Kurt! Okay so Katy Perry for sure. Pink is also great. Though I also like some Indie stuff like Maroon 5. Musicals of course and I can't decide between Prince and MJ to be honest. Both so brilliant! Also older stuff... like Sinatra. :D
This was quite good stuff. Kurt approved. To think that Maroon 5 was indie was quite cute though... maybe rock but sooo top 40.
In the background Vois sur ton chemin from The Chorus began to play and Kurt had to smirk.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
So I guess I won't find any French music on your IPod? ;D
Blaine Anderson:
Not fair Hummel! And be ready for a surprise as I do have French music on my IPod.
He wouldn't admit it but it did surprise him. He didn't know one single person who had. None of his friends had taken French and even Rachel avoided the Dion songs in French.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Okay and what exactly do you have?
He tried to sound skeptical and not impressed.
Blaine Anderson:
Well, some songs by Edith Piaf and the soundtrack of 8 Woman. Not much but truly French ;)
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
True... so how come that you are indeed interested in the language and as it seems culture but are still not good at it?
Blaine Anderson:
I have NO idea. As I said I love hearing it... I am also quite good at understanding... hearing more than reading... but I have no understanding for the grammar when I am the one to talk or write. It's terrible. :'(
Kurt had to agree with Blaine. French grammar was really complicated if you didn't study enough early on. Without basic knowledge you had no chance of being real good at it... even if you had a good lexis.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Yeah I do see your problem. I hope that once I see your textbooks and assignments I'll be able to help you. Btw. where exactly do you want to meet? I mean sure I know the Lima Bean. It's like the only decent coffee shop in this town but isn't that like a two hour ride for you?
Kurt bit his lip. Maybe he had denied it to Mercedes and intended to continue doing so but he knew he was crushing. Blaine was on his mind constantly. Kurt caught himself wondering and daydreaming about the boy along with revelling in the few memories he had so far. He didn't know if he could hope but that Blaine was attempting to drive two hours for French tutoring, he could easily get from a kid at Dalton, should be a good sign, right?
Blaine Anderson:
Well yeah but don't worry. I've got Thursday off. Family thing so I leave early on Wednesday, to spend the afternoon with you and drive to my parents' house afterwards...
... okay so it was mere coincidence. Don't you dare to care Kurt. Be happy that fate is on your side... kind of...
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
I see. Family thing? You don't seem too thrilled?
Blaine Anderson:
Nope. So 3 pm, Lima Bean it is?
Kurt felt that Blaine didn't want to talk about whatever family thing it was he had. He'd leave it at that. He didn't want to push...
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Sure. Works for me :)
He reread what Blaine had told him and something sounded odd...
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Wait. Why is it handy for you to come to Lima just to drive back to Westerville to visit your family? I mean that's four hours of driving in total...
Kurt leaned back, biting his lip in confusion.
Blaine Anderson:
My family isn't from Westerville. I'm from Lima actually...
The junior stared at his screen. A click later he was on Blaine's profile.
Westerville, Ohio - Current City
Lima, Ohio - Hometown
Blaine Anderson:
Kurt? U still there?
He shook his head after the notification sound had snapped him out of his daze. Blaine Anderson must have lived years in the same small town as him and he had had no idea...
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
Yeah. Sorry. I was just surprised. I mean we must have lived in this small city for years without ever meeting! Kinda sad.
Blaine Anderson:
Totally!
There was a small pause where Kurt searched for something more to say but Blaine beat him to it.
Blaine Anderson:
Kurt. I'm sorry but I've got to go now. Wes just stormed in and reminded me that I promised him to work on sth before we have practice tomorrow. Totally forgot about that talking to you! ;)
Kurt smiled. Blaine was so cute.
Kurt Elizabeth Hummel:
It's alright. I guess I see you on Wednesday then?
Blaine Anderson:
Oh you aren't getting away from that. You are my only hope ;) I'll text you! Bye! 3
He really had send him a heart. Maybe it was stupid but Kurt's smile got even bigger at that. He was debating a little if he could risk to send Blaine a kiss... I mean these were just emoticons after all but before he could write back anything Blaine was offline.
Kurt's smile fell a little but he decided that it wasn't a big deal and opted for sinking into the cushions and flailing a little bit.
He thought of all the little sweet and well flirty things Blaine had said and asked himself what to make of them. He only knew Blaine for half a week but he liked him... still he knew how easily he fell and he also knew that it would only hurt to fall and hit the ground...
He decided to take his time. To find out if maybe Blaine was worth a possible heart ache.
He hugged his pillow as his IPod started to play I can hear the bells from Hairspray. He grinned, quietly starting to sing along...
I can hear the bells,
Just hear them chiming,
I can hear the bells,
My temperature's climbing,
I can't contain my joy 'cause I've finally found the boy I've been missin'
LISTEN!
I can hear the bells.
He couldn't stop himself from imagining what happened in the song... a date with Blaine, a kiss... a wedding? His father smiling because Kurt was happy in this fantasy... happy ever after.
So maybe he was moving too fast in his head but he couldn't help being in high spirits.
Just because he had decided that he wouldn't rush but he also shouldn't deny himself feeling good. He giggled lightly before continuing to sing along...
