Thanksgiving week had ended with a blast and by blast it meant hours of shopping on Black Friday because everything was on sale. Kurt bought a lot of winter clothing even though he lives in L.A. "You never know", he said.

He also bought a lot of scarves.

What Blaine loved about Kurt was that even though he was a celebrity, he still doesn't buy clothes with over the top prices. Blaine can recall Kurt saying "I bet I can buy one of those for half the price" when he saw one clothing material on television. He always says that he has an eye for bargain.

When it was finally time for the boys to leave, they begged their parents not to go with them to the airport. It was fine if they're in the neighborhood but the airport would be swarming with reporters and they didn't want them to be caught up in all of it, especially Blaine's mother.

Blaine and Kurt agreed to meet inside the plane to avoid the media and thankfully, Blaine still looked like a normal person and wasn't recognized in any way without Kurt with him.

Good thing they made it back to L.A. in one piece.

"So, how did it go?"

Music Sheets & Lyrics was full on Monday night with people having a late Thanksgiving celebration with their friends and Blaine was doing the same with his. Everyone was there minus the stars namely Kurt, Rachel and Alex. It was practically boys' night since Tina was nowhere to be found as well.

"It went surprisingly well but I still don't know what they talked about." Blaine said as he took a sip of his beer. "Though my mom didn't go crazy like we expected." He added, speaking to Wes.

"Awesome. I knew she'd like Kurt." Wes grinned.

"No you didn't." Mike retorted. Wes just shrugged in reply.

"So, where are your arm-candies boys?" Wes asked Sam, Blaine and Mike.

"I think things piled up with Alex which means that—"

"—things piled up for Kurt too." Blaine finished Sam's sentence.

"My girlfriend, however, refuses to get out of her apartment saying that she had to get some decent sleep because she got exhausted this Thanksgiving." Mike explained.

"Doing what?" Blaine asked.

"Definitely not me." Mike retorted with a chuckle.

The reactions from the other guys were hilarious; Wes almost spat his drink and Sam did spit his drink out a little towards Blaine while Blaine yelled "Ugh GROSS!" to both Sam and Mike.

They bonded more before Blaine decided that he should share his happiness to the internet, considering that he has gotten quite a few followers on Twitter since he started dating Kurt. It wouldn't hurt to tweet a photo of him with his best buds.

"Group picture!" Blaine shouted over the loud band that was playing on stage.

The boys huddled together and started to pose ridiculously, getting a few shots on Blaine's phone. It's been a long time since it was just them and it was a real good fun.

He tweeted the photo with a caption saying "Don't you just wish that you're here with us @KurtHummel @AlSimmons @MsRachelBerry @TinaCC? "

It didn't even take a moment when Blaine checked Twitter and there were already tons of favorites and mentions.

"Oh look, they replied." Blaine announced as he showed them his phone. He scrolled past the tweets from the other people who were following him and read the tweet from Alex and Tina.

Alexandra Simmons @AlSimmons

@BlaineAnderson Rude.

*

Tina Cohen-Chang @TinaCC

@BlaineAndersonSo it's boys' night?

"Tell Tina that she should go to sleep." Mike said.

Blaine Anderson @BlaineAnderson

@TinaCC Mike said you should go to sleep. And yes, it's boys' night.

**

Blaine Anderson @BlaineAnderson

@AlSimmons We're not. Not really. :P

"Why are we having a conversation online where people can see it? Isn't that bad considering your situation with Kurt right now?" Mike asked curiously.

"Well, Alex replied and she's the PR manager so I think it's okay." Blaine smiled.

Blaine's phone buzzed, signaling a text message. It read:

November 26 (11:50 p.m.)

Your boyfriend says you are a big asshole. – Alex

November 26 (11:50 p.m.)

Well, he wouldn't know. ;) - B

"Holy shit. Did you send that?" Wes asked as boisterous laughing occurred. Blaine couldn't help but laugh with them as well. "How drunk are you?" Wes clutched his sides, laughing.

"I have no idea." Blaine replied. His phone vibrated again.

November 27 (12:03 a.m.)

OH MY GOD. I said 'you ARE a big asshole' not 'you HAVE a big asshole'. Are you drunk? Geez. – Kurt

Blaine could only imagine the blush on Kurt's face right now. God, he really had to lay off the alcohol or he'll be drunk-texting like a maniac. The night continued with more fun and laughter with the four of them and Blaine wished that he didn't have to go to work in the morning.

It was officially December and Blaine hasn't seen Kurt for a week, not even in the coffee shop. Sure, they texted and called each other but when Kurt said he was going to be busy, he meant it which is why Blaine found himself making his way towards Kurt's penthouse on Sunday morning.

He called Alex up to ask if Kurt had things planned that day and thankfully he doesn't. Alex told him that Kurt just wanted to sleep and stay indoors for the whole day.

Once he was there, he knocked on Kurt's door and it took a moment before it was opened by the maid who Kurt hired to clean his Pent.

"Oh, Mr. Anderson." The woman said, holding a bunch of cleaning materials in her hand. "I just finished cleaning and I think Mr. Hummel is still asleep." She added.

"I see. Thanks Martha." Blaine smiled at the woman. She smiled back and excused herself while Blaine entered the room and closed the door.

Blaine decided that the least he could do right now was to cook breakfast and thankfully, Kurt always had a lot of stock in his fridge. He went and made them a continental breakfast because that's always good.

He had two reasons why he wanted to see Kurt; one is because he misses him and the other one is because he wanted to know what Kurt and his mother talked about last week during Thanksgiving. But all of that will have to wait seeing as he still needed to wake Kurt up and force him to eat breakfast 'cause it was already 10 a.m.

Blaine entered Kurt's room with the tray in hand as quiet as he could possibly be. He placed the tray down on the bedside table and admired Kurt's beautiful features; from his hair to his lips, everything was perfect. After a few moments of ogling, Blaine decided it's time to wake him up before his breakfast gets cold.

"Mmm, food." Kurt groaned in his sleep, his nose sniffing. Blaine chuckled.

"Good morning Sunshine. I made breakfast." Blaine smiled as he helped Kurt sit up on his bed.

"Blaine? What are you—?" Kurt sleepily stared at him and then he noticed the food. "Breakfast, yay!" He said quietly but excitedly, like a little kid. "You're amazing, you know that?" Kurt said in between chews.

Blaine just shrugged and watched Kurt eat. Once in a while, Kurt would offer him some but Blaine would decline, saying that he's already eaten.

They spent the morning and half of the afternoon cuddling in bed with Kurt constantly apologizing for not being able to see Blaine for the past week. Somewhere along the way, they ended up in the living room sofa after Kurt had taken a bath.

"So, are you still going to be busy for the next few weeks?" Blaine asked as they ate ice cream on Kurt's sofa with James on his lap. The cat just really liked him.

"Probably. But I'll be free on Christmas weekend which would be the 22nd and 23rd." Kurt said, deep in thought as he tried to recall his schedule. "Next year would be pretty much the same." He said.

"I see." Blaine replied. He just wanted to ask about Thanksgiving but he didn't know how to start. Kurt sensed it though.

"Is there something wrong? I feel like you're not telling me something." Kurt frowned, looking straight towards Blaine.

"I just—how do I say this. Uhm, my mom…" Blaine lamely finished. For some reason, Kurt knew what he was trying to ask.

"She actually didn't interrogate me if that's what you're worried about." Kurt smiled, pouring himself a glass of water to drown the sweetness of the ice cream. "You want one?" He offered.

"No thanks." Blaine declined. "But what did she say?"

"I believe that's between me and her." Kurt stuck a tongue out at him when Blaine pouted. "But I do remember her saying that you've had a boyfriend for 3 years?" Kurt tried to pry it out in the most subtle way he could. Blaine isn't the only one who wanted to know things. He couldn't help it if he was curious.

Blaine eyed Kurt, sighed, chuckled and rolled his eyes simultaneously.

"You can ask me if you want you know because your subtlety is not working just like mine didn't work on you." Blaine said and he was quite happy to see Kurt blushing. "So are we doing this? Are we going to talk about past relationships?" He asked tentatively.

Kurt turned to face Blaine. "I hope it's not weird but I'm really curious. 3 years is a long time Blaine, what happened?" Kurt asked.

"Just so you know, it's been—I don't know– 2 years since then so I've completely moved on." Blaine started as a precaution; he wouldn't want this to go awry. "He was my friend since high school and he was always there for me whenever I needed a guy around. We were the only out gay guys at school so…" He faded and Kurt nodded. "We started dating a year after we graduated high school and it was fun because we had the same dream of going to L.A. and making a name for ourselves." Blaine continued. "I was studying music and he was out there, taking over L.A. by storm because he didn't believe in college. Eventually, he got tired of me and he said things like 'your bashful schoolboy thing is not going to work here in L.A. and I can't be with someone who ties me down'."

Kurt gasped, putting a hand over his mouth because how can someone say that to Blaine? Also, Blaine's 'bashful schoolboy thing' is one of the things that attracted Kurt to him. Blaine just shrugged and gave Kurt a smile.

Blaine left out another thing that was said to him before which was "If I want to make it in this business, I can't be with someone who doesn't want to associate himself with TV and movie personalities." He'll just keep that to himself.

"Then I found out that he was hooking up with people, a lot of people, in the course of those three years and that just—" Blaine took a deep breath and tried to remember that this was only a story. Kurt reached out a hand to hold Blaine's and just kept silent. Blaine smiled. "Well, anyway, the rest is history. The only thing that pissed me off the most is that we were friends and I valued our friendship so much, but apparently, he didn't." He shrugged.

"Oh Blaine." Kurt said, scooching over to Blaine and giving him a hug, making James jump away from Blaine's lap. Blaine long found out that Kurt likes being like this with him. Blaine snaked his arms up to Kurt's neck and hugged him back. "Whoever that asshole is needs to be taught a lesson." Kurt said.

"Oh, you know him." Blaine blurted out. Kurt pulled away, confused.

"I do?"

"Sebastian Smythe."

Kurt's jaw dropped open and Blaine just nodded. It was a small world after all; Kurt hated Sebastian because he was an asshole and now he hated him even more for what he did to Blaine.

"That son of a bitch." Kurt swore.

"Hey now, no need for profanities." Blaine chuckled, pulling Kurt back into his arms and nuzzling his nose in Kurt's hair. "Small world, isn't it?" He said.

"Small indeed." Kurt replied. "So, that night when you saw him at the Halloween party…"

"I wanted to punch the shit out of him. But thankfully you came along and verbally slashed him right across the face." Blaine laughed. "You're my hero."

Blaine could feel Kurt vibrating with laughter at what he said then felt a light punch on his back. "You're ridiculous."

"I was a damsel in distress."

Kurt pulled away once more just to give Blaine a look that says 'are you seriously saying that to me right now?' while Blaine just grinned at him, showing all his teeth.

"What about you then? Andrew Jacobs." It was Blaine's turn to ask. Although, he read a lot online but still, he wanted to hear the true story from Kurt. Kurt shrugged, that was a fairly new wound unlike Blaine's who has recuperated for 2 years.

"Alright, let's start with information." Kurt said, looking at Blaine straight in the eyes. "God this is awkward."

"You started it." Blaine teased, nudging Kurt with his elbow.

"I know, I know." Kurt took a deep breath. "Andrew was a year older than me. He's an English actor—"

"Ah the accent." Blaine blurted out, earning a glare from Kurt. He closed his mouth and motioned Kurt to continue.

"—and he was filming here in L.A. for one of his movies last year. He's just new in the business too." Kurt continued. "I met him at a party," He looked at Blaine and could see Blaine smiling; he met Blaine at a party too. "And we hit it off right away; he liked the stuff that I like, he's sweet, charming and most importantly, he's gay." He said.

"How long were you two together?" Blaine asked, listening intently.

"About 10 months? We didn't reach one year." Kurt shrugged.

"Why?"

"He had a girlfriend."

Blaine frowned. "What? I thought you said he was gay."

"Yeah. He was. But he's not out and he didn't tell me." Kurt said, frustrated. "And being the blind idiot that I was—"

"You're not an idiot."

"I was." Kurt retorted. "I never thought about it. I didn't even notice that he wouldn't hold my hand in public and stuff like that." He continued. "Heck, even rumors were non-existent although we're always together. That's how straight he looks." Kurt let out a sarcastic laugh.

"So, what happened?"

"I found out about it eventually and I confronted him. I told him that I don't want to be with someone who can't be honest with me. So I broke up with him before he went back to England." Kurt said. "Then a few weeks or so, he broke up with his girlfriend and came out of the closet and told the media that he's been dating me in the duration of his stay here."

"You didn't take him back? Why?" Blaine asked cautiously. In the back of his mind, he hoped that Kurt would never see Andrew again, it could be dangerous since the guy was still probably in love with his boyfriend.

"Because I didn't feel the urge to get back with him. It's not because of him not telling the world that he's gay and that he's with me, it's more of about being the third party in a relationship that I didn't even know existed and was ruining." Kurt said seriously. "It also doesn't help that my whole family hated his guts after the incident."

"You didn't ruin their relationship. He did that to himself."

"I know but it feels like that."

Blaine reached out to touch Kurt's face which made Kurt look at him. Blaine smiled as he caressed his cheek.

"You're not a bad person."

"I know."

They stayed like that for a moment, the only noise was their steady breathing. Even James wasn't making any kind of noise. Blaine's gaze went towards Kurt's lips and Kurt swears that Blaine could probably hear his heartbeat right now and if it doesn't stop, he'll be dead for sure. Blaine slowly leaned in, not taking his eyes off of Kurt's soft and beautiful lips. It was perfect, everything was perfect.

And Kurt could almost feel it, he could feel Blaine's breath on his lips and just a little closer and they'd be—

"GREAT NEWS!"

The two of them jumped apart, Kurt blushing beet red while Blaine hung his head in defeat. He placed his head on Kurt's shoulder, the hand that was holding Kurt's cheek slowly falling on Kurt's arm and Kurt could've sworn he heard Blaine grumble a curse word.

Kurt's head snapped up to see who in their right mind would barge inside the penthouse and ruin the most perfect moment in all of history. And there the culprit was, standing there with her mouth open in a small 'O' and her hands on her chest, looking very sorry and very, very scared.

"Rachel Berry." Kurt spat out through gritted teeth. If looks could kill, Rachel's body and soul would be dead right now. "What a pleasant surprise." Kurt continued sarcastically and still through gritted teeth.

"I was just—" Rachel started. She cleared her throat, "Hey Blaine." She tried, only earning a wave from Blaine who refused to leave Kurt's shoulder.

"What is it?" Kurt sighed in defeat, his hand tracing circles on Blaine's back. It wouldn't do him any good if he stayed mad at Rachel.

"I, uhm, I just—" Rachel stuttered. "I'm sorry. But I was just here to tell you guys that my dads wanted us to spend Christmas weekend together so they reserved a few cabins over at Dunton Hot Springs in Colorado and they said I can bring my friends and so I wanted to tell you and that's all, you can get back to what you were doing now." Rachel hurriedly said, turning to walk away.

"Just wait right there Rachel." Kurt said, Blaine finally pushing off of him and turning to smile at Rachel who walked back to them. "Dunton Hot Springs?"

"Yes. It's a really good place."

"I know, I've heard of it. So, you're inviting us?" Kurt asked, Rachel nodded. Kurt turned to Blaine. "Do you have anything planned on Christmas weekend?"

"Not that I know of, no." Blaine said. "Does that mean we get to ski?" He asked excitedly. Living in Los Angeles has deprived him of winter sports and this will be the first time in years that he's going to be able to do it again.

Rachel nodded. "You can tell Wes. I'm sure Alex is telling Sam." She smiled. "Invite Tina and Mike too. I don't have that much of close friends anyway."

"Did you know that she calls us 'The Gang'? Like we're in a fucking mafia movie or something." Kurt chuckled, enjoying the blush on Rachel's face.

"HEY! It was better than 'Circle 8'!"

Kurt burst out laughing at that moment, thinking of the ridiculous names that Rachel had thought about after they all first hung out at MS&L. He laughed so hard that he started coughing and Blaine ended up patting him on the back.

"I'll tell them. Thanks Rachel." Blaine grinned, trying not to laugh as Kurt tried to catch his breathing. "Are you okay?" Blaine asked Kurt.

"Yeah, fine." Kurt breathed out.

"So, I'm just gonna go. You can go back to whatever you were doing." Rachel winked, backing away slowly towards the door.

"This isn't the end Berry." Kurt threatened. Rachel practically ran away screaming "I'm so sorry!" and vanishing in an instant.

Silence filled the room and Blaine couldn't look at Kurt. How do you act normally after a failed attempt at kissing? It was only broken when Blaine cleared his throat.

"So, Colorado huh." He started lamely, getting the melting ice cream and finishing it all up.

"I'm sorry." Kurt said, burying his face in his hands. "Rachel just really—"

Blaine gave him a smile, putting down the ice cream bucket and lowering Kurt's hands. "Hey, no, it's okay."

"It just sucks. I mean—"

"I know, it sucks for me too but there's always next time." Blaine promised.

Kurt did not look up at him as he quietly said, "Can the 'next time' be right now?" And even though Blaine literally can't see Kurt's face, he can see the blush that reached Kurt's ear.

"Shit."

That's what made Kurt look up, worried that he might've scared Blaine off. Maybe he was too forward? Maybe Blaine didn't like that? But all he saw was Blaine looking away from him, his fist balled up and in front of his lips. Blaine took a deep breath and looked back at Kurt, his eyes shining.

"Shit Kurt. I'm a 25 year old man and I'm trying not to squeal." Blaine honestly said. Kurt literally giggled at that and he rarely giggles. "You need to stop being adorable." He sighed.

"Uhm, I'll try?" Kurt laughed.

Blaine's phone buzzed and both of them groaned again. What is with the world and cockblocking today?! Blaine looked at who it was and surprisingly (or not), it was Wes. He remembered that he had made a promise to accompany Wes in something he couldn't even remember right now.

"It's Wes." Blaine sighed.

"Perfect." Kurt rolled his eyes, it seems like luck isn't on their side today.

Blaine picked up the phone and Kurt got the gist of their conversation, Blaine needs to go. And true enough, when the call ended, Blaine gave him an apologetic look.

"I need to go." He said, his nose scrunching. Kurt just nodded. "Next time?" Blaine smiled, getting up and walking towards the door with Kurt following close behind him.

"Next time." Kurt sighed. "See you when…I have time." Kurt frowned, sometimes he just wishes he's a normal person who can go on normal dates,

"See you." Blaine smiled, giving Kurt a kiss on the cheek before leaving.
