Tom was one of Blaine’s best friends in the Warblers and they’d hit it off from the moment they met. Blaine and Tom had been paired up for vocal exercises, he had an amazing voice and his eyes were intoxicating, they hung out loads, became really close friends. Blaine had started to flirt slightly with Tom, he’d really fallen for the guy, hoping that he’d pick up on the fact that he liked him; he hadn’t shown any indication that he had…

“Erm, hi. This song is for Blaine Anderson. This is the only way I can tell you this,” said Tom as he picked up the guitar.

Blaine felt worried and excited. On the one hand he was getting sung to by a totally gorgeous guy but on the other hand what couldn’t he tell him in another way, they were pretty close, they could tell each other everything. Then Blaine heard the first few chords of the song and recognised it immediately.

Tom kept his eyes locked on Blaine he really needed him to hear this, He’d really, really started to fall for Blaine, he was his best and closest friend; he was the first person he came out to. Blaine had inspired him; he was so out there and proud of who he was. Tom trusted him with everything. He just really hoped that Blaine felt the same.

“Thank you” said Tom as the crowd applauded, he climbed down off the stage and almost walked into Blaine.

“Uh hey” said Blaine, awkwardly.

“Uh, yeah, hey” said Tom reaching up and rubbing the back of his neck. “Did, did you like the song?”

“Yeah, it was lovely, I, err, well, um, I think I might be falling for you too”

“Oh you – er – yeah – um.” said Tom, he was obviously very nervous about asking Blaine out.

Blaine went in to hug him, breathing in Tom’s scent – he smelt sweet, like vanilla.

“Relax, okay”

Tom let out a slow steadying breath.

“Okay, its just I’ve never asked a guy out before, and your eyes are so pretty- they make my head swim and go fuzzy. But here goes, erm, okay Blaine Anderson, would- would you like to get dinner with me on Friday?”

“Yes,” said Blaine emphatically “You really think my eyes are pretty?” Blaine's cheeks coloured.

“Are you kidding? They are gorgeous, they were the first thing I noticed about you” Tom gushed.

“Yours were too, they are so green and pretty, and deep- Just wow”

“They are nothing like yours.”

This comment made Blaine's cheeks darken, it made Blaine look adorable.

“I’d rather be looking at yours,” said Blaine looping his arms around Tom’s waist “I have to go now though, I have a shift at Breadstix and I have to go get my uniform. I’ll see in algebra tomorrow sweetie.”

Blaine made to leave but Tom grabbed his wrist and pulled him back into the embrace, Blaine looked up into his eyes and Tom pressed he lips softly to Blaine's, as Blaine's curls tickled Tom’s forehead.

“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do that,” Tom whispered as he pulled away, arms still wound tightly around Blaine’s waist.

“About as long as I have?” Breathed Blaine against Tom’s lips “But now I really need to go.”

“Okay baby. See you tomorrow.”
