"Morning Kurt."

"What's so good about the morning Blaine?"

Kurt was in a mood and it was all Blaine's fault. Alex, Rachel and Sam were looking at them in a weird way because they had no idea what just happened and what Blaine did to piss Kurt off so early in the morning. However, Blaine did not look fazed at all; he was biting his lower lip and trying his best not to laugh (because that would be rude) while the other man was glaring daggers at him.

"Everything's good Kurt." Blaine innocently said, winking at Kurt.

"You're really…" He sighed in defeat.

Blaine went to make Kurt's usual mocha, giggling as he did so while Alex, Rachel and Sam tried to figure everything out. They could feel Kurt's killer aura by their side and nudged Rachel to talk to him.

"Kurt? Is everything okay?" Rachel asked tentatively. Kurt didn't take his eyes off of Blaine as the other man whistled while making their coffee.

"Yeah, you were all huggy yesterday and now…what happened?" Alex pointed out, confused herself. Rachel looked from Kurt to Blaine, a small smile playing on her lips.

"I can't believe you pissed him off and yet you're only getting glares." She commented.

"I was wondering about that too. I usually get verbally abused when Kurt's mad at me." Alex butted in, crossing her arms over her chest. "What did you do to him anyway? Also, it's a Saturday, I'm surprised you're here."

"Oh we needed one more person today because the other barista got sick." Sam explained briefly.

Blaine walked back with Kurt and Rachel's coffee in hand, holding a box of "I'm Sorry" cookies that he baked earlier that morning.

"Oh you came prepared didn't you? You knew what you did wrong, don't you?" Kurt told him with a raised eyebrow, not hesitating from taking the box and his mocha from Blaine. Blaine couldn't stop the laugh that managed to leave his lips. "I can't believe you're laughing." Kurt's eyes widened and his jaw dropped. "How dare you, Blaine Anderson."

"Ohh, things are serious when the last name comes out." Sam teased, finding the exchange between the two boys somewhat endearing and hilarious. Blaine rolled his eyes at him and excused himself, walking over to Kurt so that they weren't separated by the counter.

Blaine had a small smile on his face as he reached out to touch Kurt's arm and said, "Look Kurt, I didn't mean to say what I said earlier this morning. I mean, you called at 3 in the morning. I didn't know what I was saying." Blaine explained, hanging his head to the side looking softly at Kurt. Kurt huffed in annoyance as he made his way to a table. It seems like he was not in a rush to leave.

Blaine followed suit and sat down opposite Kurt, he didn't have to worry about anything because the usual customers were used to them by now. Alex and Rachel followed closely, sitting near the two to hear their conversation.

"No one's ever dared to say those things to me Blaine Anderson, whether half-awake or not." Kurt frowned at him and pouted. Blaine gave him his best innocent look and his puppy dog eyes.

"What did you say to him Blaine?" Rachel craned her neck to look at them and ask, unable to hide her curiosity.

Kurt was the one who answered in annoyance, "Well he told me and I quote 'Do me a favor: drop the call and go fuck yourself.' And I didn't even finish saying Hey." Kurt retold the story to his best friend. Blaine couldn't help but hide his embarrassed face behind his hands, though, he was also hiding his smile. At least now he knew that he needed to be ready at times like those, he's not really a morning person.

"Sensitive." They heard Rachel mutter and giggle with Alex.

"I'm sorry. I thought you were Wes because he's been calling at ungodly hours these days. Or Mike. They usually bother me at that kind of time and you don't actually call me in the morning. I mean, we text, yeah and I can gather up my thoughts when we're texting. You caught me off guard there Kurt." Blaine tried to explain, his eyes swimming with something that Kurt couldn't point out. He could go kill someone off and apologize to Kurt like this and he'd still probably forgive him.

Kurt sighed after a long pause, taking a sip of his mocha. "You're a real puppy aren't you?" Blaine face lit up and his smile reached his ears.

"Well that lover's quarrel didn't last long. Boring." Alex said, dragging out the word 'boring'. Kurt rolled his eyes at them while Blaine blushed.

"Why did you call anyway?" Blaine asked curiously since he didn't really had the time to call him back that morning because he made all those cookies as an apology gift.

Kurt took a sip of his coffee and shrugged. "I just called because…" He paused. Why did he call Blaine? Was he calling just for the sake of hearing Blaine's voice? Or maybe he was calling because he couldn't sleep? Kurt tried to rack his brain for an answer and when he noticed the confused frown on Blaine's face, he cleared his throat.

"Yesterday you said you we were going to talk."

"I did but I didn't mean over the phone. Or in the wee hours of the morning."

"Well, I was just curious." Kurt looked up from his cup and frowned, Blaine's had a different expression on his face now; a bit mischievous. "Are you planning something?"

"No. Do I look like I'm planning something?" There was a pause before Blaine smirked. "Do you want me to plan something?"

The only thing that Kurt can do at the moment was to narrow his eyes at Blaine and puff a frustrated breath while the other man just gave him his brightest smile in return. Kurt couldn't help it that he wanted to know because Blaine got him curious.

"I need to go back to work." Blaine reminded him and Kurt nodded, standing up as well as he looked at the clock and realized that the shop will be busy in a few minutes time.

"Me too. But promise we'll talk tonight?" Kurt asked, he just really wanted to know more about Blaine and being the busy person he was, it's really hard for them. Also he wants to talk about the refused kisses. Blaine gave a curt nod as he walked them towards the shop door.

"I promise." Blaine said, going in for a hug that Kurt loved. Kurt smiled as he returned the hug in the best way possible, trying not to spill the coffee in his hand. He sucked in a breath and memorized Blaine's scent, that'll keep him going for the day. Kurt felt Blaine's breath ghost over his neck and ears as he said, "You're amazing" in a low whisper that made Kurt want to melt to the ground or just fly into the sun.

Those simple words meant so much more to them both than just that. Kurt knew that he wasn't there yet, he wasn't ready to blurt out an 'I love you' to Blaine but Blaine found a way so they can fill that void in their conversation rather than just saying an awkward "uhm, okay, bye". It was their personal declaration of love and admiration. That was cheesy Kurt. He snapped out of his thoughts and he let out the breath that he didn't know he was holding.

"Yeah." Kurt managed to choke out. "You are too." He said. He felt Blaine vibrate as the other man laughed silently. Blaine pulled away and didn't fail to notice the blush that was on Kurt's cheek. It wasn't hard to see seeing as Kurt had porcelain skin.

Kurt cleared his throat and nodded towards Sam who was just giving Alex a kiss goodbye. He heard Rachel whine, "Why am I the only one who doesn't have a man?" and Kurt just rolled his eyes.

Once they were gone from sight, Blaine walked back to the counter with a smirking Sam. He frowned as he tried to hide his smile by biting the inside of his lips. "What?" He asked.

"You're sweeping him off his feet man." Sam commented with a slight nudge on Blaine's shoulder. Blaine shrugged in reply.

"I am? I don't think so." He replied modestly.

"You gotta teach me how to do it dude. I didn't know you were such a romantic." Sam said with a slight hint of teasing, batting his eyelashes at Blaine and puckering up at him. Maybe it was true, maybe Blaine's inner romantic is coming out.

"It comes naturally Sam." Blaine laughed, hitting Sam lightly on the arm for being gross and ridiculous.

"Or maybe it's in your genes." Sam pointed out and Blaine shook his head. There's no way it's in his genes, not one bit.

"No. I'm pretty sure it's not from that." Blaine gingerly replied. "Let's get back to work."

That afternoon, amidst all the crazy and chaotic stuff that was happening on set because of filming, Kurt received a call from his dad which lifted his spirits in a way that he couldn't explain. He loved his dad so much that little things like this do wonders to him.

"Hey Dad! I'm surprised you're calling." Kurt smiled into the call. He could hear his father's raspy laugh on the other end of the line.

"Hey kiddo, you busy?"

"A bit but one phone call won't hurt. Is everything okay over there?"

"Yeah, everything's fine. I was just calling to remind you about our Thanksgiving plan, have you told that boyfriend of yours yet?" Burt asked straightforwardly. Once the news broke out that Kurt was probably dating someone (he still wasn't confirming it so it remains a speculation), his father called him up to clarify/interrogate him about it.

Kurt rolled his eyes even though he knew his father couldn't see it. "His name is Blaine, Dad and no, I haven't told him yet." Kurt replied. Good thing his dad reminded him or else he would've totally forgotten about it. He just hoped that Blaine hasn't got anything planned for Thanksgiving yet.

"Carole is very excited to meet this Blaine and she said that…" There were low whispers in the phone and hissing and Kurt knew that Carole must have stopped Burt from telling him whatever it was that Burt was going to say. Kurt figured it was about Andrew as per usual; Carole never liked the man and Kurt now knew why. "Forget I said anything." He paused. "I'm going to pick you up at the airport on Tuesday, alright kid?"

"Alright, Dad. I can't wait to see you. " Kurt said, he only went home on special occasions like this one and he's really excited, he misses home and his room. He misses his life before he shot to fame.

"Me too kid. See you in 3 days time."

"I love you Dad."

"I love you too Kurt."

The day was crazy hectic for Kurt and it was killing him. He haven't had this much work since last spring and that was because he was working on a book, a movie and a series. Now, this was the series alone and they're rushing to finish filming for 'Sing' in time for Thanksgiving. They had next week off so they have to finish filming everything by tonight. When he got time to himself, it was already 10 o'clock, he didn't even know how that happened.

"Are we wrapping up soon?" Kurt asked Alex as the woman handed him his diet coke. It wasn't unusual for them to stay in the set until late but today had been very busy and he had no idea why, everything was just chaotic. Alex sat next to him and shrugged.

"We were supposed to be done an hour ago but shit happened and you still need to film a scene with Chandler so…" Alex's sentence faded on purpose, assuming that Kurt understood which he did. Kurt sighed, he pulled out his phone and texted Blaine.

November 17 (10:25 p.m.)

Blaine, I'm still at work. This sucks. Are you home?

November 17 (10:30 p.m.)

I'm at Music Sheets, hanging out with the guys. I think they missed me a little too much.

(10:30 p.m.)

Do you know what time you're going home?

November 17 (10:30 p.m.)

Not really. Soon, I hope. I still have to film a scene though and then I'm off.

(10:31 p.m.)

Tell them I said hi.

November 17 (10:37 p.m.)

kurt you are the love of my life i cant live without you

(10:38 p.m.)

did ya know that i have posters of you in my apartment because im a creepy shit

Kurt frowned. What just happened?

November 17 (10:41 p.m.)

Uhm, Blaine?

His phone went off and sure enough, it was Blaine. He picked up and heard a commotion on the other end of the line. Kurt could hear Blaine saying "get off of me" and "Wesley, I swear to God I'll kick you." Kurt couldn't help but chuckle; this is just what he needed to take his tiredness away.

"Hey, I'm sorry about that." Blaine apologized in behalf of his friends. "Wes and Mike thought it was funny to steal my phone and text you." There was a grunt and Blaine's voice saying "I was gone for 5 minutes!" and Kurt was pretty sure Wes or Mike was running away from Blaine's wrath. He laughed.

"Is it true?" Kurt asked.

"Is what true?"

"Do you have posters of me in your apartment?" He clarified. There was a pause, a loud cluttering noise and an obnoxious, almost hyena-like laugh from the other end of the phone which Kurt assumed that was from Wes or Mike. Kurt was trying not to laugh loudly as well.

Blaine's voice was muffled as he was probably covering the phone but Kurt heard him say "Michael Robert Chang I'm going to murder you!"

"Hello?" Blaine said once he got back to the phone.

"Yes? You didn't answer my question." Kurt pointed out. One crew member was waving at Kurt, signaling that he had to film his scene in a few minutes and he nodded.

"If I say no, will you believe me?" Blaine asked tentatively.

"Not one bit."

"Then I won't waste my breath." Blaine chuckled.

"Hey look, I need to go. We're still going to talk later right?" Kurt asked. Blaine hummed in reply.

"If you're not too tired but if you are, it's alright."

"No. No, I'm not. I also wanted to tell you something."

"Oh, okay then." Blaine said. He heard someone calling Kurt from a distance and he knew that Kurt had to go. "Text me when you're done."

"I will."

"Bye Kurt."

"Bye."

Kurt just hoped that this will end soon so he can go home, Skype with Blaine then sleep to his heart's content. He had next week off so this won't be so bad.

It had been almost an hour since Blaine heard from Kurt and he was fiddling with his phone so much that Wes had to grab it from him.

"Hey, give that back." Blaine said, trying to get it from his friend who was keeping it out of reach.

"If you're so concerned, just text him already." Wes said. "I'll be closing up soon, do you need a ride home?" He offered, giving Blaine his phone back.

"I'm actually going over at Kurt's. I promised we'd talk about, you know, stuff." Blaine started.

"What stuff? Is it not working out for you guys?"

"No, it's not that. I don't know. I feel like I need to open myself up to him. You know? He needs to know more about me because I know a lot about him." Blaine explained. It was true, he felt like it was unbalanced and that he wanted Kurt to know stuff about his life. Wes nodded.

"Fair enough but are you staying there for the night?" Wes asked, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively at Blaine while the other man rolled his eyes.

"I don't know. I hope not. I mean, we haven't even kissed yet so I think I'll be overstepping my bounds if I—"

"Wait. You haven't kissed? Why?"

"Because! It's too early for that to happen. I'm waiting for the right time." Blaine defended himself but Wes looked right through to him and shook his head.

"Is that really your reason or is it because you're worried?" Wes asked.

"Worried about what?" Blaine feigned innocence but he knew what Wes meant.

"You know what I mean. You're worried that he'll compare you to his other kisses. That's it isn't it? It's reasonable for you to think that because he's an actor but man, stop jumping to conclusions." Wes said. Blaine just shrugged.

"I can't help it. But I wasn't lying when I said that I'm waiting for the right time." Blaine repeated.

It was then that he received a message from Kurt.

November 17 (11:57 p.m.)

Hey Blaine, you still awake? I'm home and ready to Skype. Sorry I took so long but I figured I might as well do my moisturizing routine before we talk.

"That's my cue." Blaine told Wes as they both stood up, getting ready to leave.

November 17 (11:58 p.m.)

Alright, be with you in a few.

Blaine greeted George the doorman once he arrived, his hands full with a box of cheesecake and thermos of warm milk that he prepared at Wes' house before they went to Kurt's. Wes is a true friend. He made his way up to Kurt's penthouse and arrived just in time to see Alex slowly walking out to the hallway.

"Blaine! I thought you were going to have a Skype date with Kurt?" Alex asked upon seeing Blaine. Blaine shrugged and just smiled. "He's on the couch, watching TV. Bye." She said.

"Thanks Alex." Blaine replied.

Blaine went inside and true enough, Kurt was curled on the couch with a blanket clutched to his chest. His laptop was on the center table and his Skype account was open but he was already asleep. Blaine sighed, maybe this was not a good time, seeing as how Kurt looked peaceful just sleeping there. He placed the cheesecake and his thermos of hot milk on the kitchen counter before he went to Kurt's side.

Kurt was really beautiful; it was the only thought that entered Blaine's mind. He didn't even know what he did to deserve this perfect human being. Blaine didn't know how long he was staring at Kurt when he noticed that he was shifting in his sleep. Blaine sighed, he had to wake Kurt up or he'll probably wake up to a stabbing pain in his neck.

"Kurt?" Blaine started, his hands finding Kurt's arm and shaking him gently. "Kurt you have to sleep in your bedroom." Blaine tried as he sat on the small space left on the couch, shaking Kurt's arm. There was a low grunt and Blaine had to try again. "Kurt, wake up." He said gently, the TV's noise filling the room.

Kurt shifted and slowly opened one eye. He saw a figure and once he heard his name being called, he slowly sat up on his elbows, frowning in cofusion.

"Blaine?" Kurt started sleepily. "Since when did Skype become 3D?" He asked and Blaine tried not to laugh. He helped Kurt sit up and steadied him.

"It's not 3D Kurt. I'm here." Blaine said with a smile. It's not everyday someone sees a famous actor all groggy and sleepy. If Blaine found Kurt beautiful before, now he just found him both beautiful and adorable. They're even.

Kurt sighed, his eyes still half closed. His arms snaked its way to Blaine's neck, burying his face in it and nuzzling his nose in Blaine's neck. "Mmm, Blaine." Kurt hummed. Blaine hugged him back, ignoring how this closeness affects his body. He enjoyed Kurt's scent though, a mixture of vanilla and lilac.

"Let's get you to your room." Blaine said as he pulled away while Kurt just nodded in reply.

Maybe Kurt was really tired because he was just leaning onto Blaine the whole time but they eventually reached Kurt's room and he just plopped down on the bed, dragging Blaine next to him. Blaine knew he had to go home and leave Kurt alone but the way Kurt latched onto his arm made it impossible for him to leave.

"Kurt, hey, Kurt." Blaine shook him again but it only made his hold tighter. "Kurt you need to let go." He said but there was a low hum and Kurt was talking in his sleep.

"Blaine."

It was the only thing he said but the way Kurt looks so contented and the way he smiled made Blaine sigh and just stay by his side. Blaine just let out a breath and sat next to Kurt, he just hoped that when he woke up, Kurt wouldn't think the he assaulted him. And then maybe they'll talk in the morning. But for now, he just have to bask in the comfort of having Kurt there and he's pretty sure Kurt's doing the same.
