Chapter Ten

Blaine lounged lazily on the sofa in front of the living room television. His dad was out doing something or other, he didn't really care anymore, and Kurt as helping his dad out at the garage. So Blaine was stuck home alone with nothing to do. He shuffled further back into the sofa, still aching as always. He couldn't even remember a time when he wasn't aching.

This was not how a guy should spend their weekend. Especially a guy with Blaine's reputation.

The boy had been aimlessly flicking through the channels on the television, nothing really catching his eye. You'd think that with over a thousand channels, one might actually be showing something decent. No such luck apparently.

Normally, if occasions like this arose, Blaine would waste no time in going over to some guys house and screwing until the other guy passed out from exhaustion. No that wouldn't be happening this weekend and he didn't want it to. Truthfully it was never that satisfactory. Blaine was fully prepared for himself to go no action at all, apart from his right hand in the shower. Unless Kurt wanted to try the grinding again. That had felt unbelievably good.

Blaine settled the TV on some mind-numbingly boring programme, having no intention of actually watching it. Just as Blaine was starting to doze off, it's not like there wasn't much else to do, his phone started to ring. He jumped to answer it immediately. Boredom was something he hated.

"Hey, Blainers!" Came the voice through the phone.

"Jeff. What can I do for you?" Blaine asked.

He had recognized the other boy's voice easily. The other boy was very excitable and all around awesome guy.

Jeff was a part of the Warblers as Blaine had been during his time there and they had formed a fast and lasting friendship. Many of his friendships with the Warblers would be lasting ones. They truly knew him, before he had become what he was today.

Blaine hated that it had been so long since he'd been in contact with any of his old school friends. He owed them so much more, he knew that, but there always seemed to be something going on. And now with Kurt in the picture, and the fact that Blaine wanted to spend all his time with the beautiful boy, he'd probably never get round to properly hanging with the guys. Though he wouldn't mind if that was the trade that he had to make.

"You can grace the Warblers with your presence at a rockin' party!" Jeff said.

"A 'rockin' party', hmm? Promises, promises." Blaine laughed.

Blaine doubted that the party would be that crazy. Considering some of the parties that he had found himself at since he had found his bad-boy persona, the Warblers party would be tame. In his eyes a Warbler arty was better than the insane ones that he had been too. At least he wouldn't have to worry about drugs or police raids. Drugs was one thing that Blaine would never ever do, but you try telling that to a house full of high people. It was practically impossible.

"It's a house party. There will be alcohol."

"Hmm, but I got Kurt tonight." Blaine said to himself, forgetting about Jeff on the other end of the phone for a second.

It would be a great opportunity to catch up with the guys and have some warbler type fun and he wouldn't have to pretend anything with them. They knew mostly everything about him. He wanted to party with them. But being with Kurt was like a dream come true. Even doing nothing with Kurt was always the best time. Kurt allowed Blaine to be whoever he wanted to be and didn't question him on it.

"Who's Kurt?"

Blaine froze, realising what he'd done. It wasn't like he was keeping Kurt a secret, it was more that he didn't know exactly how to explain it to the Warblers. Now he had forced himself into the situation where he had to try.

"Another fuck buddy?" Jeff questioned when Blaine didn't say anything.

Blaine knew why he was being questioning about Kurt. Blaine had never let on the names of anyone that he had been doing, mostly because he had forgotten the day after. Letting slip Kurt's name would instantly make Jeff and the rest of the Warblers curious. They'd understand that Kurt was something different from the ordinary men that came and went out of Blaine's life. They'd want to meet this magical boy, and who could blame them. Kurt was definitely something else.

"You know that, that isn't the case, Jeff." Blaine said with a sigh.

Jeff remained quiet on the end of the line, prompting Blaine to carry on. He wanted Blaine to admit it.

"Kurt is... Well, he's my boyfriend." He paused. "My, god honest, boyfriend." Blaine said, even he could hear the pride leaking into his voice.

"Oh my god! Seriously?! You aren't joking with me?!" Jeff's shrill voice sounded out.

"Sounding a little bit girly there." Blaine laughed easily at his friend's excitement.

He was secretly pleased with Jeff's reaction. He just decided to play it cool though.

"We have to meet this guy, Blaine! You have to bring him to the party tonight. Parade him around. Oh my gosh, I can't wait!"

Blaine thought about it. It would be cool to take Kurt to meet his friends. But did he really want to subject Kurt to that level of crazy. And if they said something that Blaine didn't really want Kurt to know about him. What if they talked about his sleaziness? He knew Kurt had an idea about his behaviour but having someone actually address it was much different from an inkling. Maybe if he asked the Warbler they wouldn't bring it up. They wouldn't want to screw this thing up for him. They were always trying to encourage him to be a better person and in a way, Kurt was helping with that. Well, more than in a way.

So what would be the harm of taking Kurt to the party? The Warblers were important to him and so was Kurt.

"I can ask him if he wants to come." Blaine finally said.

Jeff let out a whoop.

"But can you tell the rest of the Warblers not to say anything about my reputation? I don't want to scare Kurt off. I don't think he'd be overjoyed at my past behaviour." Blaine said sadness evident in his voice.

"Of course. I'll let them know, but I'm sure they wouldn't have said anything. They'd know how much Kurt meant to you before they'd even meet them." He said seriously before reverting back to excitable. "Man, they are going to be so excited!"

Blaine laughed. "Well I guess me and Kurt will be seeing you later."

Jeff rattled of the details for the party and then disconnected the call.

The garage as finally quietening down and Kurt would be leaving soon. He couldn't wait to jump into the shower and clean off all of the grime that came with working with motor engines and oil. He was aware that he had grease smudges on his face and up his arms but there wasn't much he could really do about them until he got home. He was wearing and old pair of jeans, tight like most of his trousers, and a grey tank top. Not the most fashionable wear but it served its purpose and he didn't dare wear any of his designer clothes here. He couldn't hurt his babies like that. It wasn't like anyone was going to see him.

"Oh my god."

Kurt turned round sharply to see Blaine standing there with his mouth gaping open. Instantly Kurt's mind went into overdrive, thinking about how terrible he must look.

Well, so much for no one seeing him. Why did this always happen to him?

XXXX

When Blaine had got to the garage he hadn't expected the sight that he had been granted. Kurt looked hot. Not that he didn't look hot all the time but this was the kind of hot that had Blaine's blood rushing southwards.

Kurt looked flustered.

"Oh no! I look terrible, I know!" Kurt exclaimed, making to run away to clean up at least a little bit.

Blaine shot forward and took Kurt's hands before he could flee and he hungrily kissed Kurt, showing Kurt how much he was lusting for him. Kurt was surprised by the kiss and gave in completely to Blaine. He parted his lips letting Blaine's tongue tangle with his. Kurt felt himself moving backwards until he was against a wall. Blaine still had his hands captive and Kurt could do nothing but let Blaine lead, not that he wanted to do anything else but surrender.

"Mmm, you look so hot." Blaine moaned as he moved from Kurt's lips to his neck.

He nibbled gently on Kurt's pale neck and Kurt let out a little whimper. Blaine could feel Kurt hardening against him and he wanted nothing more than to grind up against him and lose himself in Kurt but he stopped himself.

He drew back from Kurt, still keeping hold of his hands. His eyes glanced over the little bruise that he had left on Kurt's skin and then his eyes met with shimmering blue ones.

"I want you so bad." Blaine whispered, watching as Kurt's eyes turn to a darker blue in lust. "But we can't right now." Blaine said, letting go of Kurt's hands.

Reality quickly snapped back to them and Kurt's cheeks turned red. Anyone could have easily walked in on them, Burt or even one of the homophobic inhabitants of Lima. It was like Kurt invaded his senses until there was nothing left but him and it was sad when the world came back to him. He just wanted to lose himself in Kurt completely.

Kurt had a blissful look on his face and Blaine wasn't sure if his boyfriend had yet to join him in reality. Blaine let out a little chuckle which seemed to bring the boy back.

"That was a nice hello." Kurt mused.

Blaine laughed out loud before pecking Kurt on the tip of his nose. He could be so adorable. Blaine loved so many different sides of Kurt.

"I actually came to ask you if you wanted to go to a party tonight." Blaine said, a grin still plastered on his face.

"What kind of party is it?"

"It's a house party. It's being held by the Warblers. They're the glee club at my old school. I don't get to see them a lot anymore and when I told them about you they insisted that you come too."

"What school did you used to go to?" Kurt asked, curiously.

"Dalton Academy."

"They're our competition." Then "Wait, you went to a prep school?"

Blaine could understand why Kurt would be confused. He didn't exactly look like a prep boy anymore. If he was truthful he missed Dalton and the uniform. Everyone was the same and they were unified. The safety of Dalton was something that Blaine loved the most. It was safety that Blaine could never be sure if he'd have again. He wished he could still be there.

"Yeah, it's not very believable, right? I got kicked out. I'm not very proud of it." Blaine said, his good mood dimming a bit.

He did want to tell Kurt really but a lot of questions would rise up with the story. He had reacted badly to a normal everyday situation and because he couldn't tell anyone, no one would understand why he acted like he did.

Kurt took Blaine's hand. "Then you don't have to tell me. Just as long as you don't leave me alone at McKinley." He gave Blaine a small smile.

"Wouldn't dream of it."

Then Kurt left it alone. It was a simple as that. Blaine didn't think he'd ever stop being awed by kurt.

"About the party, I'm going to have to ask my dad if I can go. I don't know what he'll say though. I've never asked to go to a party before." Kurt admitted.

"God, you're so adorable."

He watched as Kurt blushed again.

"C'mon, let's go and ask your dad."

XXXX

When they got back to Kurt's house the taller boy headed straight for the shower, claiming that he felt filthy. He left Blaine in his room to do whatever he wanted while he waited. Blaine sat on Kurt's bed flipping through a Vogue magazine that had been on the bedside table. He was using it as a distraction to the thought of his boyfriend naked in the room right next this one. It wasn't a very good distraction.

Blaine pushed the magazine aside and stood up off of the bed. He went over to the desk and started scanning his eyes over the stuff that it held. It was mostly paperwork from school which held no interest for Blaine at all. He was about to turn away to focus on something else when a box caught his eye. He picked it up and his eyes widened at what it was. It was a box of condoms.

Kurt came out of the en suite his hair un-styled but wearing a fabulous outfit. He walked over to his boyfriend who hadn't seemed to notice he'd returned. He saw the box that Blaine was holding and he instantly snatched it off of him and chucked it into a draw, slamming it closed.

"So, condoms?" Blaine asked curious.

"I didn't buy them!" Kurt burst out, embarrassed. "When Puck found out I was dating you he bought them for me."

"Hey, it's alright. I think it's great that you're prepared Kurt. It's nothing to be ashamed about."

Blaine planted a soft kiss against Kurt's forehead then retaking his position on the bed.

"Kurt! You home?" Burt yelled up the stairs, signalling he was home.

"We better go down and ask him about the party." Kurt said, his face still red from embarrassment.

XXXX

"Hey dad." Kurt said, pulling Blaine into the living room where Burt had situated himself in front of a football game.

"You alright, kiddo? Blaine?" Burt said, his attention divided by the boys and the television.

"Dad I was wondering if I could go to a party tonight?"

That got Burt's attention off of the TV.

"What party?" He asked. Kurt looked towards Blaine.

"It's a party with my friends..." Blaine explained all the details with Burt.

"So this thing is in Westerville?"

"Yeah, I was thinking because it's so far away, we could stay over at the house. All the other guys will probably be staying over as well. It'll be kind of a sleep wherever you drop situation."

Both boys could see Burt thinking that over in his head and Kurt knew exactly what he was thinking, that situation meant that no 'funny' business could happen, which Kurt would only admit to himself, was a little disappointing.

"Since this is the first time you have asked me for anything like this I'm going to say yes. But you have to be responsible." Burt warned. "I know there is going to alcohol there, I wasn't born yesterday, so you need to be sensible. If I hear about anything stupid happening then you will be grounded for a month."

"Really? I promise I'll be on my best behaviour!" Kurt said excitedly. "I've gotta go and pack an overnight bag!"

Kurt ran out of the living room, leaving Blaine with Burt.

"You'll look after him, right?" Burt asked Blaine.

"I promise, sir. I won't let him out of my sight." Blaine promised solemnly.

Burt chuckled lightly.

"You watch football?"

"Yeah, I'm a Buckeyes fan." Blaine said.

"Knew there was something I liked about you." Burt chuckled again. "Sit down, watch the game. Kurt will probably take a while."

Blaine sat down awkwardly.

It was a weird feeling, not being judged, and that was exactly what Burt was offering him. He could have easily of thought badly about Blaine, like most of McKinley did, especially Kurt's friends. Blaine knew what Burt was showing him wasn't fake either. He seemed like the kind of man that told things exactly how they were.

He was also very different from Blaine's own father. His dad and him had used to watch games together all the time, even after Cooper had moved out and started acting. It wasn't until Blaine had come out that the bonding time they shared stopped. Well, a different bonding time had taken over. One which Blaine didn't prefer in the least. One that had shaped him in a very different way that everyone would have accepted. But he had his father to thank for a lot of things.

XXXX

When Kurt and Blaine arrived at Jeff's house where the party would be held, neither of them made a move to get out of the car.

"You're nervous aren't you?" Blaine asked.

"Please don't judge me." Kurt said a nervous smile on his face.

"They are going to love you. I promise."

Blaine was sure that he could deliver on the promise too. He knew the guys would adore Kurt because he was making Blaine 'better' and when they got to know Kurt properly; they'd love him even more. Blaine was positive. But he could understand his boyfriend being nervous. He considered these guys his family, probably more than his actual family. He hadn't seen his mother in years and his brother was busy being a star in LA. Blaine didn't even want to consider his father as family.

Doubt was still very evident on Kurt's face and it brought a smile to Blaine's face. Kurt really was too cute. He leaned towards the boy and placed a kiss on his lips. Kurt let out a little squeak of surprise and Blaine grinned.

"It's not funny!" Kurt smacked him lightly on the arm and then got out of the car.

Blaine took Kurt's hand and led him up the long driveway. All of the Warblers were very rich, or at least their parents were. It was all very overwhelming for Kurt, just as it had been for Blaine the first time the Warblers had thrown a party.

Blaine rang the doorbell and the boys waited for a few seconds before the door was pulled open and they were greeted by the blonde haired Warbler.

"Blaine's here!" He yelled over his shoulder before focusing his attention fully on Kurt. "You must be Kurt! I'm Jeff!" He said excitedly, offering Kurt a hand.

Kurt took his hand and shook it. "It's great to meet you." Kurt said.

And it was. The way Jeff had answered the door had been very unexpected and had managed to calm Kurt down a little. He could deal with someone excitable.

"Come on in. The other Warblers are dying to meet you."

Jeff moved so the boys could get in the door and then he led them to the main room where music was coming from. Kurt's hand remained in Blaine's.

"Warblers! This is Kurt. He's Blaine's boyfriend." Jeff said proudly.

"Anyone would think you'd set us up, Jeff." Blaine said under his breath.

Jeff introduced Kurt to all the Warblers. All of them seemed to be ecstatic to meet him. They tried to pull him away from Blaine but he kept a firm grip on Kurt's hand. The Warblers could be crazy sometimes and he didn't want Kurt to get too freaked out.

"And this is our newest Warbler." Jeff said, pointing out the boy who was stood apart from everyone else.

"Blaine, Kurt. This is Sebastian Smythe."
