Confirmed or Denied: Kurt Hummel's New Romance
November 1
The month of October may be the month of love for one Mr. Kurt Hummel. The actor-turned-author has constantly been spotted around Los Angeles with an unknown man for the past couple of weeks and the internet has been dying to find out if the rumors are true: Is he Kurt's new beau?
Photos of last night's Halloween party at the Beverly Hills Hotel have surfaced and Kurt, donning an amazing Van Helsing costume, has brought his rumored boyfriend, Blaine Anderson, as his plus one to the event.
Blaine Anderson is a budding musician who has performed in different events such as the fundraiser that happened in August of this year. He performs at a bar owned by a young entrepreneur, Mr. Wesley Samuels, who is known to have a few of the finest new artists in Los Angeles.
The pair was not hesitant to hold hands in front of the camera as they make their way towards the hotel entrance and were also spotted leaving together as the party ended, looking happy and in love. Kurt Hummel has not yet given any statements regarding the matter but we hope to hear from him soon!
Blaine was reading the article on his phone when he got home on Thursday night. He still couldn't believe that he was dating Kurt (although it wasn't official yet in the eyes of the world) but as Wes said earlier at MS&L, "It was bound to happen soon."
His head was filled with images about last night's party and how he ended up at Kurt's penthouse in LA, sitting on Kurt's living room couch and just watching Tim Burton's Halloween movies. They also have "tortured", as Kurt said, James by dressing him up for Halloween.
Kurt even tweeted it too, poor James:
Kurt Hummel @KurtHummel
I hope everyone had an amazing Halloween! Tweeting a photo of James in 3…2…1…
Kurt Hummel @KurtHummel
He does not look pleased. @BlaineAnderson calls him #chickitty.
And now here he was in his apartment again, reading a few more articles and comments online. Tumblr had to have the best comments about them yet.
Some comments:

asdgladfgnvefdbklz go on without me omg this is too good
LOOK AT THAT ASS
^ THIS
Blaine couldn't help but laugh because people are fangirling about it, about him and Kurt. Also, people are really making a big deal about his ass and that made him kind of self-conscious. He used to be one of these folk. It was not all positive though, there were some who says that he's only using Kurt so he can enter the music industry and be famous in an instant which is not true at all but it can't be helped for people to think that.
He hasn't heard from Kurt the entire day which made him think that maybe last night was a dream. Maybe he made this all up in his head but when his phone started ringing, he knew he didn't. A smile grazed his lips as he saw the name pop up in his screen. This will be his first private phone call with Kurt since they started dating and he couldn't help but to 'meep'. He mentally kicked himself for acting like a lovesick schoolboy.
"Hey stranger." Blaine said as soon as he answered the call.
"Hey yourself." Kurt replied, Blaine could almost hear Kurt's smile reverberating through his phone. He can also hear honking car noises which meant that Kurt must have finished work.
"Are you heading home already?" Blaine asked, walking over to his bed and checking the clock. It was already 9 o'clock in the evening.
"I am, good ear you have there."
"Oh good, at least you can have a decent sleep tonight. It's still relatively early."
"I know! I'm surprised filming ended early today. I still want to talk to you though, I don't want to sleep."
"Kurt, whiny doesn't suit you." Blaine laughed. There was a pause. "Are you pouting right now?"
"How did you know?" Kurt fake gasped. "Did you install a spy camera in my van? God Blaine, I never knew you were a peeper."
"Ah, if only your fans knew how crazy you really are, I wonder if you'll still have fans." He teased. "I can feel your eyes rolling Kurt." Blaine chuckled and another gasp escaped Kurt's lips.
"Wow. You have superpowers." Kurt sighed. "I wonder what happened to the little, shy guy that I met before, you know, the one who doesn't have super powers and who bows down to me?" He cackled.
"Oh, you'd rather have him than me? So you can boss him around?"
"No, I'd rather have him because he's adorable."
"Hey! I am adorable!"
"Nope, not really."
"I'm hurt Kurt, I can't believe you said that. I won't make you coffee and cupcakes anymore." Blaine sniffed, fighting the urge to laugh. They were being ridiculous.
"Aww B, please don't. You know how much I love those. They're like your trademark." Kurt pointed out. "Every time I order coffee or receive cupcakes, I think of you and it's so unfair because I keep seeing your toothy grinning face and I can't enjoy them because I'd be giggling."
"I'm glad that my creations have made a strong impact on you." Blaine laughed.
"Good to know that you find pleasure in my discomfort. Oh wait one second."
Blaine could hear the shuffling and the closing of the car doors and he knew that Kurt just arrived home. He heard the doorkeeper greet Kurt before Kurt got back on the phone with him.
"Why don't we continue this conversation over Skype? That'll be better, don't you think?" Kurt said. He was currently in the elevator.
"Are you sure? You're not too tired or anything?"
"Not really. Are you?"
"Not really." Blaine mimicked him which earned him a breathy chuckle from Kurt. "Alright. Let me just get my laptop. I'll call you."
"Okay."
"Okay."
Blaine clicked his phone off and he couldn't help but think that there was something missing in that phone call. There were words that hung in the air that both of them were too hesitant to say at the moment which makes sense because they've only been together for less than 24 hours. But Blaine wanted to say it because he knew that he felt strongly for this man but he doesn't want to freak him out.
He shrugged, getting his laptop from his desk and positioning himself comfortably on the bed. He logged onto Skype and typed out his username; they've exchanged Skype usernames the night before because they knew that they'll need it considering that they can't see each other on a daily basis no matter how close they seem to be.
Blaine called Kurt and it only took a few seconds before Kurt's beautiful face filled Blaine's laptop screen. He couldn't help but smile and sigh all at the same time.
"Hey, is everything okay?" Kurt asked with a raised eyebrow. Blaine narrowed his eyes at him; the man clearly knew his effect on Blaine and he's enjoying every minute of it. "Are we having a staring contest?"
"Can't I just stare at you for a moment before we start talking?" Blaine pointed out, resting his chin on his palms as he continued to stare at the computer screen. "Is this a celebrity thing?"
Kurt frowned, confused. "Is what a celebrity thing?"
"Your face. I mean, it's not the best camera in the world but you look amazing." Blaine complimented him which earned him a shy smile from Kurt. Even though Kurt is used to it, compliments coming from Blaine sends chills down his spine. In a good way.
"Oh shut up." Kurt legitimately giggled which Blaine found adorable in so many ways. "Ah! This is what I'm talking about. How can you change your personality in just one night?" Kurt laughed. "Oh Wait a sec, I'll just get comfortable." He said.
He moved the camera towards the bed and sat down with it on his lap. James jumped next to him and practically demanded to be petted, so he did. Once settled, Kurt smiled again and pulled James towards the camera for Blaine to see.
"I see he's out of his costume." Blaine laughed. Kurt waved James' paw before putting him back down to his side, petting him softly. "And for the record, I wasn't always shy. I do remember properly talking to you that night." Blaine defended himself, talking about the fundraiser.
"True. And I remember your lame attempt to get my name." Kurt chuckled a little. He cleared his throat and mimicked Blaine's voice, "Thank you Mr.?" Then he had a breakdown, laughing at Blaine. The other man couldn't help but bury his face in his hands. "I cannot believe you had no idea who I was. I have to say, I was kind of hurt." Kurt pouted.
"I'm not really a TV-movie kind of person. And you're more of a TV personality than a singer. I'm more of a music guy." Blaine explained. Kurt's facial features went from amused to curious.
"Why is that though? I've always wanted to ask." Kurt said, curiosity hitting him hard. Blaine just gave him a weak smile.
"My mom really doesn't like me watching TV or movies and I kind of got used to that lifestyle." He explained as simply as he can. "And if you're going to ask 'why', it's a long story." He added when he realized that Kurt was going to ask something again.
"I have all the time." Kurt replied but Blaine shook his head.
"No you don't. You have to sleep, I don't want you running on 2 hours of sleep again when you have a chance to sleep normally."
"Who are you my dad?" Kurt scowled. Blaine nodded and laughed. "Okay then, since you don't want to talk about that," He paused, glaring at Blaine who just made a funny face at him. "Tell me about your day."
Blaine shrugged in reply. "It's probably nothing compared to yours." He replied. Well, it's true. It was just a normal day for Blaine, granted that there were a lot of photographers around but it was still somewhat normal.
"Don't give me that Anderson." Kurt said, giving Blaine a look. Blaine chuckled and nodded.
"Alright, alright. Bossy." He stuck a tongue out at him. "It's like the usual but I've seen a few photographers here and there. I didn't know I was famous. Did you know I was famous?" Blaine said, fake gasping in shock.
"Oh my god, really? I didn't know I was dating someone famous!" Kurt joined in on the fun. "I've lucked out." They laughed together.
"You really have. Not all lean, porcelain-skinned, pretty boys like you get to date a super talented, adorable, travel-sized guy like me." Blaine puffed out his chest in the process. Kurt couldn't help but laugh right at his face again.
"Travel-sized?" He repeated, trying to clear that one out. Blaine nodded in reply.
"I'm a small man, hobbit-sized, you can practically bring me anywhere you want." He replied.
They talked for hours and only stopped when Blaine felt Kurt's need to sleep even though the latter was insisting that he can still talk. Blaine will not take no for an answer, as much as he wants to talk to Kurt, the man needed sleep as much as he needed air. That was an exaggeration but it was close. As soon as they said their good nights that ended in an awkward "Okay. Well, good night…and uhm, I…good night" on Blaine's part, Kurt texted Blaine right away.
"Sweet dreams hobbit. Talk to you tomorrow."
Blaine knew he'd be having sweet dreams. And he did, it was full of him and Kurt in a dewy meadow, having a picnic and being all lovey-dovey with each other. It just ended badly because the paparazzi came even before they could kiss which sucks.
After that first phone call, they had fallen into a routine. Blaine would go on with his day to day activities (with added difficulty because he had to dodge photographers) but he would keep his phone open at all times just in case Kurt calls which he does, most of the time, just to tell Blaine the little things that was happening on set or wherever he was at that moment. Kurt would also drop by The Coffee House as much as he could in a week. Blaine hated that Kurt had to do that but he knew it couldn't be helped.
It was only a matter of time when Blaine's boss got pissed at all the shenanigans that was happening in the coffee shop.
"Blaine, I know that you're dating that man for a couple of weeks now and it's great for business." His manager said as she pulled him aside for a talk. It was true, Blaine dating Kurt really did reel in more people in the shop. "But our regular customers are getting uncomfortable with all the photographers outside. Can you do something about that before I go berserk?"
"Yes. I'm sorry. I'll try to talk to them soon." Blaine apologized.
He went back to the counter and sighed. He's never really had a chance to talk to these people but they seem nice. Blaine was running a lot of scenarios in his mind that he failed to notice three people entering the coffee shop and the camera flashes going off.
"It seems like your boyfriend is on La La Land today."
Blaine snapped out of it and realized that Kurt, Rachel and Alex had walked in. He never did understand Rachel's work, one moment she was in L.A. and another moment she's gone somewhere in another state. Blaine just hopes that doesn't happen with Kurt.
"Good morning to you too Ms. Berry, Ms. Simmons." Blaine greeted the ladies with a warm smile. He turned to Kurt, wanting to kiss the lights out of him but hesitated for a couple of reasons. So he settled with a smile and a wink. "You look stunning Mr. Hummel."
Kurt's palm found its way to his face as he tried to hide his laugh, shaking his head. It was too early for Blaine to be this ridiculous. "Thank you and you're crazy." He finally said, peeking through his fingers.
Blaine just nodded a little. "The usual, I presume?" He continued and both the ladies were laughing. "Also, Ms. Simmons, your prince charming called in sick today." Blaine told Alex and she just nodded.
"Yeah, he called me too and asked me to remind you to make me your best café au lait." Alex told him with a smile. Blaine nodded and went off to make all the coffee orders.
While Blaine was gone, Rachel pulled Kurt to one side and interrogated him.
"Why didn't he kiss you? I mean, I'm sorry if I'm being nosy—"
"You're always being nosy." Kurt interjected.
"—but aren't people in a relationship supposed to kiss every time they see each other?"
Kurt rolled his eyes at Rachel, it was a good thing that Alex was keeping Blaine occupied by doing an interrogation of her own about something that Kurt couldn't make out or else Blaine would think it was weird that Rachel was hissing at Kurt.
"Rachel, he probably has his reasons. And not all people are like you who kiss people on your first date." Kurt tried to explain, both to himself and to Rachel. True, he had been dating Blaine for approximately 2 weeks and Blaine hadn't made a move to kiss him and he was dying to know why (because Blaine's lips look really kissable and he'd be lying if he says he doesn't think about it).
"I'm just curious, that's all." Rachel shrugged and then sighed. "So you're not kissing which means you're not having make out sessions which means you're not having se—"
"Shut up." Kurt interrupted before Rachel could finish her sentence. "We've just been together for 2 weeks, geez." He glared at her and Rachel raised her hands in defeat.
"I was just saying." She mumbled.
"Dark coffee for Rachel Berry," Blaine called out and Rachel hopped over to get it, mumbling 'Thank you'. "my best café au lait for Alexandra Simmons," He said and Alex smiled as she took a sip.
"Wow, this is good." Alex commented.
Blaine curtsied a little. "And a grande nonfat mocha with a homemade cupcake for my favorite customer." He winked, eyes twinkling at Kurt. Kurt eyed him curiously as he got his order.
"You're awfully cheery today aren't you?" He said.
"Yes. I am." Blaine chirped.
"And why is that?" Kurt asked.
"Can't I be happy because I saw you today?" Blaine flashed him his toothy grin and Kurt couldn't help but to shake his head in amusement.
"Alright then." He smiled. "You can see me every day if you want you know. It's alright for you to drop by the set anytime." Kurt informed him. Blaine knew that because Alex already told him but he was just trying to find the right time to surprise Kurt.
"I know."
There was a pause where both Kurt and Blaine were only smiling at each other; no one was talking, they were both just staring at each other. Rachel cleared her throat and both men looked at her, confused.
"Sorry to break your heart eyes for each other but we have to go." Rachel giggled, enjoying the look on Kurt's face. Kurt sighed, of course, he had to work.
"I'll call you." Kurt told Blaine and the latter nodded in understanding. But when Kurt turned away, Rachel nudged him a little, telling him to go and just kiss Blaine because that's what she needed to see and it's what he needed to feel. It took a moment for Kurt to turn to Blaine again, who was now away from the counter so there was nothing in between them, and grab him by the shirt to lean for a kiss.
Only to be met by Blaine's gelled hair on his face. He realized that he's been enveloped in another hug, just like what Blaine always does when Kurt thinks they're going to kiss. Although disappointed, he sagged into Blaine's hug just the same because he can feel Blaine's glorious pecs under that uniform. From the way that Blaine sighed into the hug, Kurt knew that he was probably disappointed too. He just hoped that they can talk about that soon.
"I'll talk to you later." Blaine whispered as he let go of Kurt looking deep into his eyes with a hand resting on Kurt's cheek. Kurt pursed his lips and nodded in reply; the paparazzi forgotten as well as the people around them.
Kurt took a deep breath, getting a huge whip of Blaine's scent which is mostly a mixture of coffee and his perfume, and smiled. "Yeah, okay."
Rachel, on the other hand, refused to believe what she was seeing. One is because Blaine really refused to kiss Kurt and two is because Kurt was reduced to 'Yeah, okay' which was really amazing, in Rachel's opinion. So when the three of them walked out of the shop, Rachel commenced to teasing.
"You've got it so bad for Blaine." Rachel started as they entered the van. Kurt rolled his eyes at her while Alex nodded in agreement.
"You should see him when he's texting Blaine, it's cute." Alex butted in.
Kurt ignored the two of them as he played with his cell phone. As if on cue, it went off and a message from Blaine came in.
November 16 (10:03 a.m.)
Hey Kurt.
(10:03 a.m.)
KUUUUURRRTTTTT
(10:04 a.m.)
Hey. HEY KURT. :)
Kurt chuckled at how ridiculous Blaine was being this morning.
November 16 (10:05 a.m.)
Yes my dear?
November 16 (10:05 a.m.)
I'm sorry for earlier. :(
(10:06 a.m.)
I'll make it up to you tomorrow.
What? Kurt frowned in confusion. Now he's curious and it's not good when he's curious.
November 16 (10:06 a.m.)
How?
November 16 (10:07 a.m.)
Shh. It's a secret. :)
(10:07 a.m.)
Have an awesome day!
(10:08 a.m.)
You're amazing.
November 16 (10:08 a.m.)
I hate you for getting me curious.
(10:09 a.m.)
But you're amazing too. :)
"See? I told you it's adorable." Kurt snapped back to his current surroundings as he realized that Alex and Rachel were looking at him like he was a baby. But he couldn't roll his eyes this time so instead he stuck his tongue out at them.
He wonders silently about what Blaine is planning, Kurt sighed. It's still a mystery to him how Blaine manages to keep him wanting more of Blaine himself. And now Kurt can't seem to take his mind off of Blaine.

This chapter was really good. I loved the part where Blaine was reading the comments on Twitter and Tumblr. I also really like how you write Rachel. She tends to annoy me on the show but I really like her in your story. I can't wait to see how Blaine plans to make it up to Kurt. Looking forward to chapter 11.
