Kurt walked forward, pulling Blaine with him looking at the tree, reaching out and running his hand down the bark with his free hand, "Hold on, one sec...," He mumbled, "Ah, here."
Blaine watched as Kurt's hands suddenly locked onto a crack in the bark and tugged, and the outline of a rough door came out of nowhere, Kurt only pulled it open a little bit and Blaine could see a blinding light shining from within.
A gasp left the Slave's lips and Kurt grinned, enjoying the child-like excitement in Blaine's eyes as they widened in wonder.
"It's pretty bright," Kurt informed him, holding out his hand, "Close your eyes and jump."
Blaine took Kurt's hand in his own, squeezing the luscious soft skin, "Don't let go."
"I won't, I promise," Kurt smiled, "I'll never let go of you."
Blaine couldn't help but feel that there was a whole different meaning to those words, something much deeper and meaningful. But he pushed it away, just like his urge for the kiss. He was obviously going crazy.
"Okay, let's go," Blaine nodded.
Kurt squeezed his hand tightly and pulled him forward, "One...Two...Three, Go!"
Blaine yelled as they both jump through the door, their eyes squeezed tightly closed. He was falling at an alarming rate, his heart thumped in his heart and tried to travel up through his mouth. Kurt let out a cry of enjoyment beside him, squeezing Blaine's hand tightly. Suddenly Blaine hit something soft which he was unbelievably grateful for, he had no idea how long he'd been falling for, whether it had been a few seconds or half an hour.
He heard Kurt laugh beside him, "You can open your eyes now Sweetheart."
Blaine felt his cheeks heat up and he opened his eyes to see Kurt's sweet face directly in front of him with a soft smile, "Are you okay?" The Prince asked him.
Blaine nodded, "Y...Yeah."
"Good," The Prince reached forward and brushed his hand down the side of Blaine's face, making the Slave's eyes widen. Kurt blushed a little, "Come on, let's explore."
Kurt hopped to his feet and helped Blaine stand up also. Blaine looked around and gasped. He and Kurt had landed on the hugest leaf he'd ever seen, it looked like a boat.
Kurt grinned, "It's amazing isn't it?"
Blades of glass were towering above them, taller then the Palace back home and making Blaine feel like a tiny ant, "Sir, I...Wow."
Kurt giggled and slipped his hand around Blaine's waist, pulling him forward, "This way."
"Wait. How do we get back?" Blaine asked as they walked forward, panic filling his eyes.
Kurt smiled, "Just go back through the tree, it's fine, I know what I'm doing."
Blaine nodded a little, relaxing and letting his eyes try and take in everything at the same time. Large rocks that would have been pebbles blocked their path and Kurt helped Blaine climb over them, making a joking remark about his small legs and causing Blaine to blush and looked away.
"I'm only teasing," Kurt bumped his hip playfully against Blaine's, "You're perfect the way you are."
Blaine blushed even deeper, his eyes catching Kurt's and he found it difficult to look away from the electric blue and Kurt seemed to be having the same problem as his eyes locked on Blaine's. Their hands joined between them automatically and Blaine felt his heart flutter at how perfect of a moment this was...until he let out a cry as he tripped over a ten-foot root sticking out of the ground and fell into the dirt.
"Oh my God, are you okay?" Kurt fell to his knees and watched as Blaine groaned.
"Embarrassed, apart from that I'm fine," He grumbled, letting Kurt pull him into his arms and blushing red when Kurt pressed a kiss to the crook of his neck and giggled.
"It could have happened to be too, don't feel bad," He smiled against Blaine's skin.
"Yes, but it happened to me," Blaine rolled his eyes as Kurt hugged him tightly for a second before they both got to their feet and continued to walk, Blaine making sure to keep an eye on where he was walking.
Kurt lead him down to a huge lake of water, insisting it was just a small puddle which made Blaine a little nervous. How huge were these human? He glanced around nervously.
"It's okay, they don't even notice us. I promise, we're way too small," Kurt squeezed Blaine's hand as they decided to sit down by the water.
Blaine was surprised at how close Kurt sat next to him, their legs pressed together, but he didn't complain. He figured they were completely alone and there was no way that another fairy would see them, so he just as well enjoy being close to Kurt when he could. The sun was shining down on them and Blaine felt his wing brush against Kurt's as they automatically pointed up into the sun, much like a flower moving in the direction of the suns light. They blushed, catching each other's eyes and laughing nervously.
"You're the best birthday present I've ever had," Kurt said suddenly.
Blaine smiled, "Really? But you're the Prince. You must get everything."
"Yeah, I guess. But I get too much, I never even use half of it. I just wish I could get it away to the poor but Kate wouldn't hear of it, she said it was disrespectful for the people who had given it to me," Kurt sighed.
Blaine shook his head, "I'm nothing special, Sir."
"You've made me happy. I'd almost forgot what that felt like until you came along," Kurt blushed, "And I meant what I said in the library, you're never allowed to leave me. I don't know what I'd do without you."
Blaine smiled, "I'd never want to leave you."
Kurt let out a sigh, "Well that's lucky, because you're not going anywhere."
Blaine nodded in agreement, looking out over the world that made him feel so small, "So...have you ever seen a human?"
Kurt nodded, "I'd climbed up into a flower and they picked it."
"Oh my God! What did you do?" Blaine asked, his eyes looking like they were about to pop out of his head.
"I jumped and flew away," Kurt shrugged, "I told you, they don't even see us."
"How big are they?" Blaine asked curiously.
"Hmm...I think we could fit easily in the palm of their hand," Kurt shrugged.
Blaine looked down at his palm and gasped, "Wow, that's big."
"Yep," Kurt nodded, "Ready to go and look around some more?"
Blaine nodded hopping to his feet and helping the Prince to his.
"This way," Kurt said, brushing his jeans free of dirt and starting to walk around the puddle, "I want to show you something."
Blaine followed, "I can't believe you come here on your own, you're so brave."
"More like so stupid," Kurt laughed, joining their hands again, "But I never had anyone to go with...would you come again with me?"
Blaine nodded, "Definitely, this is amazing."
Kurt lead him further and further away from their route back home but he couldn't bring himself to be worried. Kurt could take care of him. They ended up climbing the blade of grass and throwing the dew at each other, Kurt giggling and squeezing when Blaine jumped from one blade of grass to another and dropped the cold water on his head.
"You are so dead for that," Kurt pouted, his fringe become unstyled and falling down into his forehead.
Blaine laughed, "Come and get me then, Sir."
Kurt grinned, scooping some water up in his hand and flying up into the air, wobbling a little because of the water on his wings, so he could get above Blaine.
"Hey! No flying that's not fair," Blaine whined, looking for cover and seeing a leaf that he could hide behind, unfortunately Kurt got him before he could take cover, drenching him.
"There, now we're even," Kurt grinned, landing next to Blaine and shaking off his wings to try and dry them a little, it wasn't the easiest thing to fly with wet wings.
Blaine pouted his lower lip and shivered at the cold water as it dripped down his neck, "You cheated."
Kurt giggled, "I'm the Prince, I can do whatever I want."
Blaine laughed, "Are you using your higher power against me?"
Kurt smiled, "Maybe?"
"Kurt, look out!" Blaine cried, grabbing his hand and pulling him behind him protectively.
Kurt peered around to see a huge ant crawling around below them, "We should get out of here...Are you okay?" Blaine was shaking.
"Yeah, they just look creepy close up," Blaine shuddered, taking a step back and bumping into Kurt who wobbled.
"Shit."
"Kurt, no!" Blaine made a grab for the Prince but he'd already lost his balance and was falling down to the ground, "Kurt, fly! What are you doing?"
"My wings are wet," Kurt yelled just before he landing with a 'hump' on the floor.
"Kurt, are hurt? Are you okay?" Blaine called, peering over the edge.
"I'm fine," Kurt sighed, scrambling to his feet.
"Kurt, the ant," Blaine cried in alarm as he started taking an interest in Kurt and move towards him.
"Damn it," Kurt groaned, running backwards and flapping his wings desperately, "Fly damn it, fly."
"Kurt!" Blaine gulped, looking back and forth before tried to fly himself, his damp wings refusing to lift himself up.
"Urgh, come on!" Kurt growled as the ant got closer and closer, "Are you kidding me?"
Blaine let out a sigh of relief as his wings lifted up him at the last moment, he swooped down and gathered Kurt in his arms, holding him so close to his chest as he flew away as fast as he was able.
Kurt let out a sigh, burring his face in Blaine's neck, "Thank-you."
"I'm sorry, it was my fault, I knocked you off," Blaine mumbled, feeling Kurt cling to him.
"It was an accident, and you also saved me," Kurt arms wrapped around Blaine's neck.
Blaine sighed, "I think we should go home."
Kurt nodded in agreement, "That way," He pointed.
Kurt guided him back to the leaf that they had fallen onto and Blaine set Kurt down on his feet.
"I was so worried about you," Blaine mumbled as Kurt walked forward to a tree that was a little behind where they landed and started feeling around on the bark.
"It's okay, we're both fine," Kurt said, finding the correct crack in the bark and pulling the door open, "Thanks for coming with me."
Blaine walked forward and pulled Kurt into a quick hug, just because he could, before they had to go back to being Slave and Prince. When he pulled away Kurt was smiling at him.
"I kind of don't want to go back," Kurt admitted.
"Why?" Blaine asked, frowning slightly, "At least we don't get attacked by giant ants."
Kurt smirked, "No, I guess not. But you seem so much more relaxed here."
Blaine blushed and shrugged, "There's no one else around."
Kurt nodded in understanding.
"Come on," Kurt grabbed his hand, "Close your eyes and jump....One...Two...Three, Go!"
OXOXOXO
Blaine yawned and rubbed his eyes and Kurt smiled, "Tired?"
Blaine shrugged, "It was a long day."
Kurt nodded in agreement, "I can't argue with you there. I'm going to change and we can go to bed okay?"
Blaine got to his feet as Kurt exited into the bathroom and got changed into his own pyjamas, he crawled back up onto the bed, yawing again as Kurt came back out.
"Thanks for coming with me today," Kurt smiled as he climbed under the comforter.
Blaine felt Kurt pull him closer to his side and smiled, "You know I'd do anything for you."
Kurt blushed, "I'd do anything for you too."
"Goodnight Sir," Blaine yawned.
Kurt smiled softly, "Goodnight Blaine."
