Blaine woke up incredibly early that morning – a quick glance in his clock's direction telling him that it was barely 5am – and God, he was so jittery with excitement! It was Christmas! By far, Christmas was Blaine's favourite day of the year ever since he came to Hogwarts. There was literally nothing that would bring his mood down, and he was grinning like an idiot the entire time. And for the first time, Blaine was going to be spending time with a member of his family that actually gave a shit about him.

He walks over to his dresser and pulls on a white t-shirt on, before walking over to the window. He couldn't be bothered getting dressed fully until dinner came along – hell, he was probably only going to get dressed if someone else other than him, Kurt, Cooper, and Finn were having dinner. When he looked out the window, if it was even possible, he was even more excited when he saw that the snow was still falling heavily outside. Wow. It was Christmas and it was snowing. Could things get better than this?

Then Blaine remembered.

He'd confessed his love to Kurt last night.

And Kurt had kissed him back.

So.. was he Kurt's boyfriend now? Or was that kiss also going to be something that Kurt and Blaine wouldn't speak about? Though, neither of them could doubt that things had changed between them. Blaine knew that much. Blaine still wasn't sure what exactly he should do when he saw Kurt today, but he decided that the best decision for now was to play things by ear.

Blaine spent about an hour in his room, before he deemed it an acceptable time to start waking everyone up – it was Christmas, they were supposed to get up earlier, right? Right. So, walking over to his cupboard, Blaine reaches into a bag and takes out everyone's presents: a long and wide box for Quinn, a very small and square box for Rachel, a large and a nearly over-flowing bag for Finn, a thick and rectangular box for Cooper, and a thin and long box for Kurt.

Blaine peers in the boxes for Rachel and Quinn, smiling when seeing the contents were still inside, before carefully placing the boxes under his bed for safe keeping, planning on giving them to the girls whenever they came to visit. Blaine thought for a few moments about who he should wake up first before remembering just how grouchy Cooper could be if he was woken up before he wanted to be, and Finn would more than likely not even respond to Blaine. So, that left Kurt. Blaine wasn't sure if Kurt was the type to get up early on Christmas, and they had stayed up pretty late last night.. But there wasn't anyway that Kurt could be worse than Cooper was at getting up now, could he?

Biting his lip slightly, Blaine picks up the box for Kurt, turning it over in his hands a few times before jumping up when hearing a door slamming from down the hall and footsteps that were far too heavy for it to be an elf. And judging from where the noise came from, either Cooper or Finn had woken up. Well, if one of them were awake, then Blaine would feel less guilty about waking Kurt up then. Smiling to himself, Blaine slides the box into the pocket of his pyjama bottoms before heading out the room.

When he walks out the room, Blaine looks in every direction of the hall, and down the stairwell for any sign of Cooper or Finn. Blaine didn't want to see how either of the two would react if they saw him walking into Kurt's room before the other boy was awake. Cooper would smirk, and tease him relentlessly throughout the whole day. As for Finn, well... Blaine knew how protective the Hufflepuff could get over his brother, and Blaine didn't want to have to spend most of the day enduring glares and dirty looks from Finn.

Even though Kurt's room was just next door to his, Blaine took his time getting there. He wasn't sure if Kurt would even like the present.. or being woken up this early. But fussing over whether or not Kurt would be happy or not wasn't calming his nerves at all, and was in fact, making them a whole load worse. Swallowing back when he gets to Kurt's door, before knocking it gently.

"Kurt...?," He says softly, pushing the door open slightly, and peering inside. Kurt was still asleep, and because of the curtains being drawn, there was very little light in the room. Though, he could just make out Kurt's figure facing away from him, and towards the window. Smiling a little, Blaine walks further into the room and gently shuts the door behind him. Still trying to be as quiet as possible, Blaine takes small and careful steps towards Kurt's bed, before sitting on the edge of it. Blaine slowly brings up one hand onto Kurt's shoulder, shaking him slightly. Blaine couldn't help but smile at the mumble of protest coming from Kurt's lips. "Kurt.. Wake u -"

"Merry Christmas, Sweetcheeks!"

The door was kicked open and slams against the adjacent wall, causing Blaine to jump back off the bed and fall onto the floor, and for Kurt to bolt straight up. After getting over the initial shock, Blaine looks over, and rolls his eyes at the sight of Cooper walking into the room with that smug smirk on his face.

"Cooper, was there really any need for you to nearly kick off the door like that?" Blaine asks, as he stands up, hoping to God that the box in his pocket wasn't at all damaged after his fall.

"Yes," Cooper says instantly, plopping himself down on the end of Kurt's bed "I'm a little shocked that you were about to wake up Kurtie here before I did. Then again, it is you after all. It would be more shocking if you didn't try to steal him and keep him to yourself all day."

"And I'm sure that if Blaine was the one to wake me up, he would've prevented two heart-attacks," Kurt says dryly as he sits up straighter.

Cooper says nothing and just laughs, and shakes his head. "Anyway, breakfast is ready, so you two head downstairs now." He says, getting off the bed.

Kurt follows suite and smooths down his pyjamas "I will, just let me get changed first," He says as he starts to head over to one of the cupboards.

"Nope," Cooper cuts him off, standing in front of the wardrobe "Go down now. It's Christmas. The only day that is socially acceptable to spend the whole day in your pyjamas. So make use of it"

Before Kurt could protest any further, Cooper grabs his shoulders and turns him around, and out of his bedroom. Letting out an exasperated sigh, Blaine shakes his head and follows Kurt and Cooper downstairs.

Blaine was slightly irritated at breakfast because of Cooper barging in, but his mood picked up as the door was knocked, and Quinn walked into the dining room to join them. She informed them that her father was fine, and hadn't had any risks of being attacked, before knowing that it was best to drop the subject considering what had happened to Kurt and Finn's father. At the sight of Quinn, Finn who was almost asleep on the plate of food perked right up and started talking animatedly to the blonde girl. Blaine was confused about Finn and who he liked out of Rachel and Quinn, but the larger boy always seemed to be infectiously happy whenever those two were around. Blaine couldn't blame him, though. From the smile on Cooper and Quinn's faces, Blaine knew that he was like that whenever Kurt was around.

But this time, it was different. Because Kurt wasn't just the boy that Blaine had been totally in love with since their first year, and even though it had only been one day since things had changed between them, Blaine's smile was wider before, and he would stare at Kurt even more dreamily. He couldn't even pretend that he was looking at someone or something else any more because it.. Kurt was just dragging him in more than usual. Blaine thought that he would've felt a little creepy for looking at Kurt for so long, but whenever Kurt did happen to look his way, a soft smile would form on Kurt's face, and his eyes would just immediately light up. This happened about five times during breakfast, and it wasn't until Cooper had pulled Blaine's plate away from him when the boy was about to pick up the last slice of bacon with his fork that he snapped out of it.

Once breakfast was eaten, and the dining room was finished, Blaine decides to give everyone else in the house their presents before Kurt, so that when he actually was going to give Kurt his present, they'd have a lesser chance of being interrupted. He gave Quinn a set of light blue dress robes from Gladrags, Finn a large assortment of sweets from Honeydukes and multiple things from Zonko's, and Cooper three Honeydukes selection boxes stacked on top of each other. Blaine knew that he'd spent almost exactly the same amount on everyone (he was only a few Knuts over or under for everything) but he still felt bad that the presents for Kurt and Rachel were so small, and Cooper and Finn got what looked like so much. Well, at least Quinn's helped ease his mind a little.

After enduring a bone-crushing hug, and multiple kisses from Quinn, Blaine managed to escape her clutches and led Kurt upstairs and into Kurt's room.

"Seems like you got presents for just about everyone," Kurt says lightly before sitting down on his bed, leaning back slightly on his hands.

"Yeah, I've done it most years," Blaine replies, running a hand through his hair sheepishly. "I used to either have to make them or rely on ads in the Daily Prophet, but ever since Hogsmeade I've been getting them from there."

"That's nice," Kurt says smiling softly "I love shopping in Hogsmeade..especially during Christmas. Doesn't it always seem like there's something more special about it then?"

"It does," Blaine laughs, tilting his head to the side as he looks at Kurt. "I know it's probably normal for you, but...the Muggle world during Christmas... it doesn't even compare to what it's like in Diagon Alley, Hogwarts, or Hogsmeade."

Blaine frowns when he sees Kurt's face falling when he was speaking. Just when he was about to open his mouth to ask what he said wrong, Kurt starts speaking.

"No, I know what you mean," Kurt says shaking his head "I've seen the Muggle world during Christmas time..It really is beautiful, but it's nothing like it is here. It's not as, well – magical," Kurt laughs softly.

Blaine laughs along with Kurt, shaking his head "It really is.." Blaine says, before waiting for a few moments and takes out the box out of his pocket "I actually got you a present as well."

Kurt's cheeks heat up ever so slightly, and shakes his head "No, Blaine you didn't need to do that."

"Shush," Blaine shakes his head and hands Kurt the box "I did. I get presents for all of my friends."

Chuckling softly, Kurt peels back the wrapping paper around the box "Well, we're a bit more than that now, aren't we?"

Blaine stops and stares at Kurt for a few moments, feeling his heart skipping several beats. Oh god. Kurt had confirmed it. He had pretty much confirmed that they were boyfriends now. Blaine bites firmly on the inside of his cheeks to stop himself from grinning so much his cheeks would fall off, or let out an embarrassingly loud squee, or something equally as stupid.

"Exactly," Blaine says, inching closer to Kurt and rubbing his shoulder softly "And after last night, even if I hadn't bought that for you, I would've found something for you in my room anyway."

"Awh," Kurt says as he peels the last bit of wrapping paper from the box "You really are too sweet, do you know that?"

"I try my best," Blaine says, laughing softly when he feels his cheeks heating up – god, everything that Kurt said now was going to have more of an impact on him, wasn't it? "But, Kurt, open the box already! Open itttt."

Rolling his eyes, Kurt slaps the top of Blaine's arms gently as he laughs, causing Blaine's heart to skip a few more beats this time. He really had to try and not to get too wrapped up in Kurt..this was only their first day as boyfriends. Blaine would be dead within a week if he kept acting like this.

"Alright, alright! I'm opening it, you impatient little horror,"

Blaine sits up fully, watching with wide eyes as Kurt lifts the lid open, and seeing Kurt's own eyes widening at what was inside, Blaine feels his heart thrumming loudly in his chest. Did Kurt love it? Hate it? Was it too much? Too little? Why was he getting so nervous over this?

"What do you think?" Blaine asks in a small voice, raising his eyebrow over at Kurt.

Kurt slowly takes out the necklace that was inside the box, before putting the box to the side as he holds the necklace up ever so slightly. It was a necklace with a small golden snitch with the open wings made out of silver with a simple gold chain attached to the tips of the two wings.

"God, Blaine, when did you get his?" Kurt says, sounding a little breathless, as he turns to look at him.

"I got it when I was buying Quinn her present," Blaine says, bouncing slightly in his seat "I wasn't really sure what you'd like, and I didn't want to just buy you a book – I know you read a lot, but I didn't want to get you that. It just seemed lazy to me, so I got you that." Blaine smiles softly over at Kurt before pushing his hair back and quirks an eyebrow at Kurt "So.. Do you like it?"

Angling his head a little to the side, Kurt smiles at Blaine warmly before he leans forwards suddenly and brings his arms up to hug Blaine tightly. Not expecting Kurt to move so quickly, Blaine laughs out loud, before returning the tight hug, and rests his head on Kurt's shoulder.

"I love it, thank you," Kurt whispers softly, before pulling back a little. Noticing that Kurt was still incredibly close to him and seemed to maybe be hesitating, Blaine raises and eyebrow up at Kurt, about to ask him what was wrong, before Kurt quickly plants a kiss on Blaine's cheek and he pulls back.

Immediately, Blaine feels his cheeks warming up, and brushes his fingers over where Kurt had kissed him, before laughing nervously, "It's going to take a while for me to get used to that."

"You'll get used to it soon enough," Kurt shrugs before smiling brightly at Blaine, who returns the smile. Blaine watches as Kurt fiddles with the chain in his hand, and then unclasps it. Shaking his head, Blaine pushes Kurt's hands down when the other boy was about to put the chain around his neck.

"No, let me do it.. Please?" Blaine pouts ever so slightly at Kurt, gesturing his hand out for the necklace. When Kurt smirks and hands Blaine the necklace, Blaine grins broadly, and jiggles in his seat. Blaine shuffles around until he's behind Kurt. He lifts the necklace up and puts it around Kurt's neck, his fingers fumbling when he secures the clasp after his fingers brush against the back of Kurt's neck, unable to help but marvel at how soft the skin there was.

"So, how does it look?" Kurt asks when Blaine moves to where he was sitting before.

Blaine sighs softly, tilting his head as he smiles at Kurt serenely "It suits you," He says, nodding. Blaine pauses for a few moments, looking at the sheets before glancing back up at Kurt. "You know.. that necklace is actually a locket.."

Kurt quirks an eyebrow when Blaine speaks, giving small smile "It is..?"

"Yeah," Blaine nods. Running a hand through his hair, he mumbles "So..if you have any pictures you can put them in there, if you want.."

"Maybe later on, I will," Kurt speaks quietly, looking directly at Blaine, before shuffling incredibly close to him, almost sitting in Blaine's lap. Blaine hears Kurt breathing lightly for a few moments, his eyes widening slightly when Kurt leans towards him with his eyes close. The moment Blaine feels Kurt's lips against his, Blaine instantly sighs into the kiss softly. Parting his lips slightly, Blaine lifts his hands up to weave his fingers into Kurt's hair slightly, not wanting to grip too tightly in case he freaked Kurt out, or something else like that. As Kurt pulls back slightly, Blaine frowns almost instantly, his lips searching for more before he leans forwards to attach their lips again, and smiles into the kiss when he feels Kurt kissing him back, and draping his arms over Blaine's shoulders. Feeling Kurt's lips parting, Blaine grazes his tongue over Kurt's teeth before instantly retracting it through fear that he's putting too much in too fast. It took all of Blaine's effort not to continue, and keep Kurt at a slight distance instead, what he was doing when Kurt pouted in protest and was about to surge forwards to kiss him again.

"Kurt, I know it's a little early," Blaine says slowly, "But I think it's important to take about boundaries.. like, how far we can go, and when we should stop whenever we're...y'know.." Blaine trails off, before looking at the ground nervously. God.. Kurt must think of him as a complete idiot, who had no experience in this kind of thing?

And he would be right to think so. Blaine had no idea what he was doing at all. He'd never even had anyone be a potential conquest before. He'd never been interested in any of the girls that was interested in him for obvious reasons, and Kurt was the only guy that he'd ever been interested in that way before – up until recently, Kurt wasn't even an option because of Sebastian.

But... here Blaine was. He was sitting on a bed, starting to discuss ground rules for any intimate moments he'd share between him and the boy he's practically been in love with since first year. And Blaine had no idea what to do.

Blaine snaps out of his thoughts when hearing Kurt laughing. "Blaine, it's okay," Kurt smiles with a shake of his head. "And..you're right."

"I am?" Blaine asks, looking at Kurt, confused.

"Yes," Kurt nods in confirmation "So..What about you? What's your limits then?"

Blaine stammers for a few moments, before breathing heavily. "I'll be honest, I don't know, Kurt," Blaine says, rubbing the back of his neck "I've.. I've never done this before. So I've got no frame of reference."

Kurt nods slowly, and seems to be in thought for a few moments, before he nods again more firmly "Right, well if you don't have any, then I think the best thing to do is to just..see what happens and if one of us is feeling uncomfortable, then we tell the other, and we stop. And, if we're going into unknown territory as it were, , then we should ask. Even if it seems like we're enjoying it." Kurt pauses for a few moments as if to see if Blaine had any questions. When the curly haired boy remains silent Kurt slightly tilts his head "So, does that sound good to you, then?"

"Yeah, sound fine," Blaine nods "You have more experience than I do after all.." Taking an intake of breath, Blaine rests a hand on his thigh as he looks over at Kurt "If you don't mind me asking, Kurt.. With Sebastian.. just.. How far did you go with.. when you were with him?" Seeing Kurt's eyes widen slightly, Blaine feels his heart rate increasing rapidly. Shit...He was being too nosy, wasn't he? "Y-You don't need to tell me, though! It'll just give me -"

"Blaine!" Kurt cuts him off, clearly sounding amused, though Blaine couldn't help but feel that there was a little uncertainty in Kurt's eyes "It's fine, calm down...As for Sebastian and I.." Kurt shrugs, slightly before leaning against the headboard of the bed. "I don't want to go into details, but we never went much further than kissing.."

"And was Sebastian fine with that?" Blaine asks, raising an eyebrow skeptically.

"Surprisingly, yes," Kurt sighs heavily "Well.. He wasn't happy at times, but he was understanding. He never pushed me into anything I didn't want to do."

"Really?" Blaine says, smiling to himself. As much as he hated Sebastian, he couldn't help but feel some respect for him. Blaine wasn't going to say it out loud through fear of potentially offending Kurt, but he always had someone who would push whoever they were with into going further, and not even care how they felt about it. "I just want to let you know... that I'm never going to push you either...We'll move at whatever pace you're comfortable with."

"Thank you," Kurt smiles softly, leaning off the headboard "But, you need to promise me that you'll tell me if I'm ready, and you're not. I don't want you doing anything you're not comfortable just because I'm comfortable with it. We both need to feel the same way about it, otherwise we're just going to regret it later."

Laughing softly, Blaine nods, and practically beams at Kurt "I promise, Kurt," He says, "You promise the same, okay?"

"Yes, I do, I promise," Kurt chuckles.

"Good," Blaine smiles in relief. He leans forwards towards Kurt before stopping himself, and quirks an eyebrow at Kurt "Seal it with a kiss?"

Kurt shakes his head, and lets out a small giggle. He shifts forwards slightly, before gripping onto Blaine's shirt lightly, and presses his lips against Blaine's again.

The moment Blaine starts kissing Kurt back, he just hears the doorbell being rang from downstairs, and barely registers a very loud voice when he heard Cooper greeting them. Whoever it was seemed to be heading upstairs from how many footsteps were getting closer, but Blaine didn't care about that. As long as they stayed away from Kurt's room.

After a while, Blaine gently pushes Kurt back , so he was leaning against the headboard again, and rests one hand on Kurt's ribcage. He manoeuvres his body slightly, so that instead of practically lying on top of Kurt, Blaine was lying next to him instead. Feeling Kurt's lip parting, Blaine clenches his fist before climbing on top of Kurt again, almost instantly sliding his tongue into Kurt's mouth for a few moments before he pulls it out, and starts sucking on Kurt's bottom lip. He keeps the passion level the same as he runs his hand up and down Kurt's side, until he feels Kurt sitting up and taking control of the kiss, adding more passion into the kiss in response. The passion levels keep building gradually higher, and higher until, the door was opened and -

"Yes, I'll just put my things away and I'll be right down, Cooper and – OHMYGOD!" The loud voice coming from downstairs a few minutes ago squeals out.

At that moment, Blaine pulls away from Kurt, and cricks his neck as his head swivels around so fast. It took him a few moments to realize exactly what just happened before his eyes widen and his jaw drops upon seeing a snow covered, and a very red-faced Rachel standing in the door way, breathing heavily and looking over at them in slight horror.
