Kurts sleep was restless. He desperately needed it as he had a long day of classes waiting for him, but by five in the morning Kurt just gave up and silently crept downstairs to make himself an early breakfast. No one else was up and Kurt didnt expect them to be- everyone slept in until a few minutes before the breakfast bell.

Of all the people Kurt didnt want to see, Blaine topped the list. They had just gotten together that day and Blaine was asking so many questions. He felt violated but at the same time a little relieved. It did feel good to finally tell someone, but not in that way. It was an invasion of all his privacy.

Kurt went to pour himself some cereal, but he just stared at the box instead. It was Blaines favorite kind.

"Fucking cereal is taunting me."

He stormed out the door.

Wes wasnt one to wake up early. And even after a considerably decent sleep, his mind was still swimming from the previous night. He and the other warblers were seriously considering acting on the plan they created. Then he would have to deal with whatever fallout occurred, and considering the long list of ways Jeff wanted to torture this Karofsky kid, several scenarios would include calling his parents to bail them out of jail.

What really bothered the Warblers was Kurt. Even though Kurt had Blaine he was still a wild card, and dragging all of his past up could be harmful to Kurt.

He got out of bed quietly, not disturbing the snoring David to his left, and went downstairs. The light was already on in the kitchen and a box of cereal lay abandoned on the counter. Wes looked around the room then checked the game room to see who else was awake, but the house was quiet. He went back upstairs and saw Blaines door was open, and inside Kurts bed was empty.

"Shit."

Closing Blaines door silently, Wes returned to his room and slipped a pair of shoes on before returning back downstairs and out the front door.

The sun was just creeping over the horizon and the grass was covered in a fresh layer of dew. Wes walked hurriedly down the trail and over to the school building, using his student card to get in. The cafeteria wasnt open for an hour so he walked down the hall, looking down the smaller corridors until he saw Kurt in the library, curled up in a chair reading a book.

"There you are."

Startled, Kurt jumped a little in his seat and let out a small yelp before realizing who it was approaching him. "Wes, you scared me. What are you doing here?"

"Sorry about that, when I woke up you were gone and I didnt know where you were."

"Oh. Well Im fine, you can go back to the house and stop worrying now." Kurt said as he went back to reading his book.

"Kurt are you okay?"

It was the question he dreaded. But he put on a fake smile and nodded "Im totally fine."

Wes watched Kurt, questioning whether he should bring up the fight or not. But something was obviously wrong since it was five- thirty in the morning and they were in the library of all places.

"Look, I dont know how to put this, but uh last night we were downstairs and we could hear you and Blaines... fight." Wes looked down at his feet, just his eyes looking up through his lashes to watch Kurts reaction.

Kurts smile faltered and his eyes widened a little. Did they hear everything? Were the walls that thin? "Um, yeah it was just a little spat. You didnt actually hear what we were saying though, right?"

Wes didnt answer, the look on his face telling enough.

"Fuck. Well I... that was a long time ago and Im fine. You dont need to worry about me. I really dont like talking about it." Kurt brought his knees up to his chest and his shoulders rounded forward. He tried to focus back on his book but the words just blurred.

"Thats fine. Its just, look that kid that did that stuff, uh... does he still bother you?"

"No. My dad took me out and sent me here immediately. Not many people know where I actually am."

"Well were all here for you if you need us, especially Blaine."

Kurt flinched just slightly at the mention of Blaine. "Sure."

"Im serious. If you-"

"Yes Wes I know. Ive heard it a billion times before, I get it." His words came out harsher then intended.

"Did anyone upset you? If you were uncomfortable at the lock-in I swear it was in good heart, we didnt know. You and Blaine were just..."

"Practically dating for months but we never admitted it, I know. Im fine none of you did anything wrong." Kurt really wished Wes would just leave him alone.

"Are things cool then?"

"Yes. You can go now."

Wes stood up to leave, but something still wasnt right. Kurt was being overly hostile if everything really was cool between him and the Warblers. He sat back down.

"Now I know its not my place to talk, but are things between you and Blaine okay? That fight sounded kinda awful for two people who just got together."

Kurt glared at him for a few moments, deciding whether or not to answer. But it was clear Wes wasnt going to leave him alone, so Kurt took the bait. "Weve been so close for months but now its just official and I think Blaine thought that meant he automatically got to know everything. It doesnt. But apparently everyone else knows so I should just deal with it, but I dont know."

"Dont know what?"

"What to do. Im really pissed at Blaine, why else would you think Id be here. He was my secret keeper but I screwed that up like everything else."

Kurts use of the phrase ‘secret keeper made Wes smile. He was trying to be the unbiased third- party, but in the end he was shipped Klaine as much as the next Warbler. "He doesnt have to have a direct purpose in order for you to still love him."

"I think we jumped into things too fast. I mean I told him a lot of shit, he professed his love and then we celebrated with you guys. Right after that he was demanding to know more. It was invasive and draining."

"Have you told him that? Blaines a little full on and immersive sometimes without knowing it."

"No I havent. Should I?" Kurt was surprised that he was having this conversation right now, and with Wes of all people.

"I think you should, but Im just Wes. Blaine would never take relationship advice from me so dont tell him I suggested it. Wes isnt good with dating." They stood up and went out into the hall.

"Referring to yourself in the third person? Really?"

Wes just laughed. "Go get Blaine, Kurt." So Kurt took off down the hallway towards the door. "And put the cereal away!" We shouted after him at the last minute.

Back at the Warbler house David was in the kitchen pouring himself a bowl of the cereal Kurt had left out.

"Oh youre awake." Kurt said as he entered.

"Yeah I woke up when Wes decided to leave at six in the morning. Classes dont even start until eight, what are you two doing awake?"

"I... I need to go talk to Blaine. And put that cereal away unless you want Wes pissed at you." Kurt turned around and went upstairs, slipping into his room quietly.

Blaine was still asleep peacefully. Kurt just stood there and took in the sight of the beautiful sleeping boy in front of him. His breath was slow and deep, his chest rising and falling. For as long as they had shared this room Kurt had never seen Blaine asleep so soundly, which was quite the opposite of the night he himself had had.

As much as he hated disturbing Blaine, Kurt pressed his lips lightly to Blaines. The sleeping boy twitched a little before a small smile spread across his cheeks and his eyes opened slowly.

"Good morning sleepy head." Kurt sat on the bed next to Blaine.

Blaine turned and faced Kurt, propping his head on his hand, smiling brightly. "You know how to wake a guy up."

Kurt smiled in response, but just a little. "Can we talk?"

"Oh thats not a good thing." His smile fell.

"No, no not like that. I was a little bit upset still upset about last night and I talked Wes-"

We does not give good advice just to warn you." Blaine said as he cut Kurt off, sitting up so Kurt could have his full attention.

"Yeah he said that. But I realized that I shouldve told you that when you kept asking me questions, I didnt like it. It was way too much and thats why I snapped at you. Im sorry." Kurt looked down away from Blaine.

"Kurt, why are you sorry? Im the jackass here, Im the one who should be apologizing. I knew you didnt want to answer and I kept pushing you to talk and Im really really sorry. I just want you to be comfortable and feel like you can talk to me like we used to even though were like dating now."

"You think dating would make me want to talk about that part of my life less? Blaine its the exact opposite. Theres no one else I would want to share those secrets with, only you. I trust you more than anyone." He looked back at Blaine, who had nothing less than pure love and devotion in his eyes. So Kurt brought up the last thing he needed to clear up. "And um, do you think we jumped into the deep end a little too soon? I dont regret anything, I just... are we going really fast? I feel like weve been dating forever but its really only been one day."

Blaine reached out and took Kurts hand. "I totally agree. Yesterday was really crazy and maybe we both just really caught up in it. I want you to set the speed of things because I dont want you to be uncomfortable. I know sometimes I can be really intense, but thats only because I love you so just tell me when I do that again, okay?"

"I promise." He said, looking at their intertwined hands before he returned his gaze to Blaines eyes where he got lost.

"Can I kiss you now?"

"Yes." Kurt said breathlessly.

Leaning forward simultaneously, Blaine caught Kurts bottom lip in his. At first it was slow with no intentions, just love. Then Kurt moved his head and leaned his head impossibly closer, running the tip of his tongue along the other boys bottom lip, sending a shiver down both of them. Blaine smiled into the kiss, breaking it for the shortest second before opening his mouth a little wider and allowed Kurt to explore further.

They were still holding hands and Kurt squeezed Blaines hand a little. "I love you." He said, the words muffled against Blaines lips.

"I love you too."

The impromptu makeup make out session lasted 15 minutes before Jeff walked right into the room without knocking, carrying two bowls.

"Good morning lovebirds! Cereal?"

Late into the night the Warblers met in the game room. Trent was stationed outside as a guard in case either Kurt or Blaine came downstairs. They had disappeared earlier that night to "study".

In the game room the boys had gathered around the ping pong table, Wes and David at the head.

"So I talked to Kurt and apparently very few people know he is here, which eliminates a few of Jeffs ideas." Wes said as Jeffs face fell.

"Honestly we need to rethink everything we had planned and go with something safer." David was scratching a lot of things off the yellow legal pad in front of him.

 The room was silent besides the scratch of Davids pen. So Thad spoke up. "Maybe we should just come up with a protection plan in case anything happens and scratch the attack ideas. If few people really know hes here then I think we should keep it that way."

"But then its not revenge and I want revenge!" Jeff shouted a little too enthusiastically.

"Calm down Jeff, Thad has a good point. And weve also never bothered to really ask Kurt if he wants to do anything about it. I talked to him, but all I did was ask if he was still bothered by the jerk. And since he isnt I think starting something up might cause him too and I would hate that." Wes leaned back against the near wall. They had been so caught up in revenge plots they never bothered to think about Kurt and it was selfish.

"But we cant do nothing." Nick said, agreeing with Jeff on the revenge schemes.

"I think we should take another Warbler vote. Those who think we should act on the revenge plan go to left side of the room, those who think we should talk to Kurt about all of this go to the right." David said as he prepared his gavel.

Almost all of the Warblers moved to the right, but Jeff defected to the left immediately. Nick stood in the middle, unsure whether he should follow Jeff or the crowd, but ultimately went to the right and gave Jeff an apologetic look.

"Alright then. The Warblers have spoken and we will talk to Kurt." The gavel smacked against the game table.

They filed out into the common room and Wes filled Trent in. Jeff though went right up to his room, still upset about the final decision. He wanted justice for Kurt and if he couldnt do that with the help of the others he would do it alone.
