Blaine walked home that day, he called up his brother Cooper and told him not to pick him up since he needed to clear his head. It was only a 30 minute walk anyway so it wasn’t that far. 

Cooper however, suspected something as wrong and waited at home patiently for Blaine. Cooper had been living with his family since they moved back while his messy divorce settles. Cooper stayed in Ohio while his family moved to New York, he was 18 after all. 

“So Blaine, wanna tell me what’s up?” Cooper asked.

“Nothing is up, just wanted to walk that’s all,” Blaine said, lifting his bag off his shoulders and walking to the kitchen, Cooper was having none of it of course and followed him with more questions. 

“Yeah sure, don’t even pretend you don’t want me to know either Blaine,” Blaine turned around and tried to act confused. “Don’t even give me that face, you knew full well if you’d have told me you were hitching a ride with some friends I wouldn’t have questions it, but a walk? Come on Blaine I may be pretty but I’m not stupid.”

“It’s complicated,” Blaine sighed. 

“Try me.”

“Wellthisboykissedmeandhewascryingand-” Blaine babbled.

“Woah, slow down there. Sit down and tell me everything, from the beginning.” Cooper said.

“Well basically there is this kid, at school and he’s gay,” Cooper smirked and Blaine shot him a ‘don’t you dare start’ look. “And well, we’re friends, well at least I think. He’s always acted really weird around me I just assumed it was because I was gay and out and he wasn’t used to that, maybe even had a little crush on me or whatever. But this is different, every time I speak to him he gets this far away look in his eyes like he’s remembering something. But anyway I let all this weirdness go just in case it was just my imagination.” Blaine paused, figuring out how to say what he had to say next. 

“Then today I joined the Glee club, and well I sang Teenage Dream, you know by Katy Perry.” 

“Of course I know, you sing it like all the time,” Cooper laughed but stopped when Blaine gave him that look again. 

“And the whole time his eyes had that look again, and at the end when everyone stood up and clapped he just sat there, staring.” 

“Sounds like the kid is in love with you Blaine, maybe it’s the bow ties,” Cooper teased. 

“Are you going to let me finish or should I just go?” Cooper nodded, repressing another smile. 

“Anyway,” Blaine continued. “Then the next thing I know he ran out of the room, crying.” 

“So you ran after him?” 

“So I ran after him, anyway I caught up with him and he looked a mess, seriously Cooper I’ve never seen someone so upset in my life. I asked him what was wrong and he didn’t answer, then he mumbled something that I didn’t quite understand and then he kissed me.”

“The plot thickens,” Cooper stated.

“It’s not a joke Coop,” 

“Never tried to make it one, so basically this kid likes you and now he’s kissed you, what are you gunna do? Do you like him?”

“I have Sebastian,” Blaine said.

“That’s not what I asked Blaine.” 

“I don’t know, that’s not what I’m worried about now anyway, it’s what he said. I’m not quite sure but it sounded like he asked me why I didn’t remember, but I’m really not sure what I’m meant to be remembering, like he told me something in one of our conversations, I have no idea.” Blaine finished, looking defeated and Cooper just patted him on the shoulder.

“Maybe you just misheard, maybe he said something like ‘why do you wear so much hair gel,” Cooper laughed. 

Blaine pushed Cooper’s hand away, but then started to laugh as well. 

“All jokes aside Blaine, maybe you should just, y’know, talk to the guy? You never know it could all just be a misunderstanding, so you just go talk to…”

“Kurt,” 

“Kurt, and see what is actually going on,” Cooper smiled, he was a great big brother when he wanted to be.

“Yeah you’re right, thanks Coop,” Blaine smiled.

“You’re welcome bro,” 

Cooper started to leave the kitchen when he remembered something.

“Hey Blaine, out of curiosity, what’s Kurt’s last name?” 

“Er, Hummel why?” Blaine asked, confused.

“Oh nothing. See you Blaine.”

Cooper got to his room, (well the guest room he added a few personal belonging to), sat on his bed and laughed.

“Well,” Cooper said out loud to himself. “Looks like Blaine has forgotten all about his little boyfriend.” 

Cooper decided to pay a visit to Kurt Hummel and soon, before everything got much, much worse.
