"So, it's our one week anniversary," Blaine casually said, arm draped over his boyfriend's shoulder on his couch.

Kurt side-eyed Blaine suspiciously. "Really Blaine? We're not going to be that couple are we?" It was true, they had been dating for a week now, a wonderful week filled with random dates when possible and talking on the phone till late like a couple of love struck teenagers- well that wasn't entirely off, just take away the teenager part and it kind of suited them fine, after all they were falling for each other pretty darn fast.

Blaine cleared his throat, nervous that he might have come across a bit too clingy- that was until he saw Kurt's eyes light up and a wide smile break across his face, the smile was contagious and Blaine felt himself relaxing and smiling himself. "Well, no we're not that couple I just thought I'd mention it that's all."

"Oh, so you didn't have some extravagant date planned?" Kurt pouted sadly.

"Wait, one minute you didn't want to be that couple but now you're sad because we're not?" Blaine asked bewildered, but still smiling.

"Oh shush Blaine," Kurt pulled his boyfriend towards him for a gentle loving kiss. "I don't care if we never go on amazing dates, as long as I'm spending every moment possible with you that's all that matters to me." Kurt pulled the shorted boy into a hug.

Blaine smiled into his boyfriend's shoulder, "well I wouldn't say we'd never go on amazing dates, you deserve the best after all."

"So do you Blaine." Kurt smiled, pulling away from Blaine.

"I know, that's why I have you." Blaine answered back with giant puppy eyes and Kurt laughed, Blaine would never get sick of that heavenly sound.

"You're such a sap Blaine."

"You like it."

"I do."

Both boys stared at each other for a while, before Blaine nervously cleared his throat and looked away. This whole thing was new to him, so sometimes the complete adoration in Kurt's eyes got a bit much, he was falling for the younger boy incredibly fast and it scared him sometimes, but it was also incredibly exciting.

"I have to go," Kurt sighed sadly. "I promised my dad I'd call him tonight for one of our weekly conversations."

"I understand," Blaine smiled, pulling Kurt's face in for a quick peck; which of course soon turned into them making out for an extra ten minutes.

"Will our goodbyes ever be short?" Kurt joked.

"Probably not," Blaine chuckled.

Blaine watched as his boyfriend left his apartment and smiled, things were going so well right now and he hoped nothing could bring him down from the high that he was currently experiencing.

Blaine was sat across from Cooper in his apartment with a look of absolute anger on his face.

"What the hell do you mean Cooper?"

"Calm it Blaine, it wasn't me who said it."

"Right, you're just being the little 'messenger boy' is that it?"

"You know I don't agree with it Blaine!"

"So why didn't you say anything? Why did you just nod your head and accept it? Why didn't you argue your point if you don't agree with it?" Blaine was furious, Cooper had just told him about a meeting he had with their father. It didn't go well, Benjamin Anderson had demanded Cooper make Kurt was gone by the end of the week, apparently he didn't trust him.

"Would you have? You know what dad's like." Cooper sighed, running his hand through his hair. "I did try okay? I told him how much a hard worker Kurt was and how much of a good person he was to have around, he didn't listen Blaine."

"I know, I'm sorry." Blaine shook his head. "But it's Kurt, Coop. I can't fire him because dad's homophobic."

"I know you can't, but if you don't dad will probably make his life a misery till he quits and who will listen to him? This is Ohio, people are more likely to listen to a successful rich lawyer who is well known, loved by everybody and frequently attends church over some gay kid."

"It's not fair Cooper."

"You're right it's not, but it's just the way things are." Cooper rested his hand on Blaine's shoulder. "Look, if there was something I could do I would, trust me, best option here is to get Kurt to look for another job in the field he's interested in. I'm pretty sure we can hold dad off till then."

"I wouldn't be surprised if he dumped me."

"Don't be stupid, he likes you and I'm pretty sure he'll understand, he's probably been through a lot worse because of his sexuality. He's a tough guy."

"There is another option you know."

Cooper raised his eyebrows, "yeah? And what's that?"

"I come out to dad." Blaine said shakily.

"How will that solve anything?"

"Well, he can't really fire someone because they're gay if he has a gay son? I'm pretty sure he'll want me to keep quiet and-"

"Blaine, no stop. You're really thinking of blackmailing our father? Seriously? You know what he's capable of. I don't think you being his son will matter once he knows you could potentially ruin his career, you'll be gone along with Kurt."

"Why is that such a bad thing? Maybe I don't want to work for him anymore. Maybe I'm sick of it. I have enough money from working all these years that even if he does cut off all ties to me I can still make it somewhere else."

"You're right you can, if that's what you really want then I'll support you 100%. However, I do think you should take some time to think things through. Are you really prepared to sacrifice everything for Kurt? I get it he's the 'one' for you or whatever. But who knows what will happen in the future? I'm not saying you wont go the distance, but I'm not saying you will either."

Blaine sighed. "I'm not doing this just for him Coop, I'm doing this for me. I've been unhappy for years because of that man, always trying to do what's best for him, make him proud you know? For what? For him to take away the one thing that has made me happy in years? Sure Kurt wont be going out of my life but I'll still have to hurt him, he loves his job Coop."

Cooper nodded. "Whatever you decided I'm here for you, you know that right? If you want to come out then I'll be right behind you."

Blaine smiled, happy to have his brother in his life. "I know, thanks Cooper. I don't know what I'd do without you."

Cooper laughed and patted his little brother on the back. "Crash and burn?"

Blaine tossed and turned that night, unable to sleep. He had a big decision to make, fire Kurt or finally tell his dad everything he's ever felt? Including the part where he's gay.

He looked over at his alarm clock and groaned, 3am. He had to get up in three hours and he hadn't slept a bit. Blaine reached over for his phone and decided to send a text to Kurt, hoping it wouldn't wake him up but knowing he needed to say this now before he chickened out in the morning.

Hey, sorry if I've woke you because I know it's super late and I'm kind of hoping you'd just see this in the morning but can you meet me before work? Lima bean? Well call me when you wake up or something to arrange a better timing… ugh this is awkward but I wanted to ask you before we arrived at work (well duh…) anyway it's because I kind of need to talk to you about something. (Don't worry it's not what you're thinking.) - Blaine xx

Blaine read over the text and after deciding he couldn't word it any less awkward and he hoped Kurt would just understand he hit 'send' and locked his phone. He decided to get out of bed and make himself some coffee, after all he wasn't going to be sleeping any time soon because he had a hell of a lot to think about.

It was going to be a long night.
