For the next two weeks, Kurt did his best to smile and nod and generally support Blaine's friendship with Sebastian. He'd had to use a salt water rinse in his mouth because he bit the insides of his cheeks and lips so often. Sebastian's barely veiled insults and flirting were wearing on his nerves.
One afternoon after glee rehearsal, all of the New Directions went out to coffee. Sebastian met them there and Kurt gripped his book bag like a life line. He started singing song after song in his head in order to keep a genuine smile on his face. After introductions were made, Sebastian suggested a party at a local underage club with the New Directions and Warblers.
"They play pretty decent music," Sebastian said. "Blaine, you'll have to save a dance for me. Although my date might get upset. But a little challenge is always welcome, right Kurt?" He smiled at Kurt, a nasty glint in his brown eyes.
"Hmm," Kurt said in non-committal tone. He took a deep drink of his coffee.
"That sounds like fun, doesn't it Kurt?" Blaine asked, taking Kurt's hand with a smile. "What do you guys think? Maybe this weekend?"
There was some talk among them and they agreed to meet at the club, Jackals, that Friday night. After Sebastian left and Blaine went to the bathroom, the girls surrounded Kurt.
"Alright, fancy, what is going on? What is up with Blaine and that weasel faced maggot?" Santana said, sitting next to him, arms crossed.
"They are friends," Kurt responded, raising an eyebrow. The last thing he wanted to do was discuss Sebastian.
"Uh huh. And my boobs are real," Santana retorted.
"Blaine is really blind to the flirting, you guys," Mercedes said.
"Seriously? I can tell he's flirting and I usually can't even tell when Lord Tubbington is lying to me," Brittany said, shoving her hands in her Cheerios coat.
They all looked at her and smiled or shook their heads.
"Really, Kurt, why are you putting up with him? I can tell it's killing you to not tell him off," Mercedes said. She'd met with the three guys for coffee a couple of times to help Kurt stay sane.
"Alright, look. We had a huge fight a couple weeks ago and I agreed to not question their friendship. That's all I'm going to say about it," Kurt said firmly.
"Well, we'll all be there Friday," Tina said. "We'll help keep an eye on things."
"Absolutely," Quinn agreed.
"We've got your back, Kurt. If he tries anything with Blaine, I'll show him what Lima Heights is all about," Santana said with a grin.
Kurt chuckled. "Thanks, you guys. I really appreciate it."
"What are friends for," Rachel said, reaching for his hand.
Mercedes put her hand in and the rest of them followed suit until they were all holding on to each other. They were laughing when Blaine walked up.
"What's this?" he asked with a smile.
"It's a girl thing," Rachel said with a giggle.
As Blaine drove Kurt home, they held hands and sang along to a song on the radio.
Finally Kurt had to ask, keeping his voice even. "So, Sebastian is bringing a date?"
"Oh yeah. He's been wanting to ask out this guy at Dalton named Liam for a while. They went out last week and had a great time, so they'll be going out again. I'm excited for him. He really seems to like the guy," Blaine said.
"That's great," Kurt said sincerely. Maybe Sebastian was finally turning his attention elsewhere. If Kurt knew he was in a relationship, he might finally be able to relax. But there was that look he'd given Kurt at the coffee shop. He knew he'd never be able to truly trust the guy.
"I hope they are as happy as we are," Blaine responded, bringing Kurt's hand up and brushing his lips against his knuckles.
"Me too," Kurt said, closing his eyes at the sensation of Blaine's lips.
That Friday, Kurt wore his sexy jeans again. He was feeling unsure of being in a party atmosphere with Blaine and Sebastian, date or no date. He wore a shiny silver shirt and a black vest over it.
Kurt drove over to pick Blaine up and they drove downtown to Jackals, a small club that catered to underage kids. There were coat checks at the door to ensure there was no alcohol and adults volunteers were always around. Kurt's dad had called and found out this information before allowing Kurt and Finn to go. Finn was picking up Rachel and would meet them there along with the rest of the New Directions.
Sebastian and a very tall blonde were already there and came up to them after they got their coats checked.
"Blaine, Kurt, this is Liam, my date," Sebastian said.
"Hey guys," Liam said, shaking their hands. He was built like a football player with wide shoulders and hands that could palm a basketball. He had dark eyes and a friendly smile.
"It's nice to meet you," Blaine said.
"We're so happy Sebastian has finally met someone," Kurt added, with a glance at Sebastian.
"Well, I didn't come out until recently and I was a little hesitant to date right away. But Sebastian is quite persuasive," Liam said with a grin at Sebastian.
"Oh stop it and come dance with me," he replied, tugging Liam out to the dance floor.
"Let's go see who else is here," Blaine suggested and Kurt agreed.
They greeted Warblers and New Directions members alike, spending a little time with some of Blaine's old Dalton schoolmates. All of the glee club had made it and they laughed as Brittany and Santana immediately hit the dance floor, writhing against each other.
Kurt finally got Blaine to dance with him. Ironically, Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night" was playing and it seemed everyone decided to dance. Kurt shimmied around Blaine and even turned and wiggled suggestively, giving an "Ooh!" when Blaine grabbed his hips and danced right up close behind him.
"You're wearing the jeans again, Kurt," Blaine breathed in his ear.
"Just for you," Kurt replied with his eyes closed.
A while later, Kurt and Blaine were wrapped around each other, slowly rotating during a slow song. Kurt felt a bump and looked up to see Sebastian and Liam dancing right near them.
"Hey, Blaine, I brought some liquid sunshine for us," Sebastian said, holding out a small bottle of vodka.
"Won't we get busted?" Blaine asked hesitantly.
"Not if you maintain yourself," Liam said with a smile. Kurt could tell by the fumes coming off of him that he'd already had plenty of sunshine.
"Sure. Kurt drove, so why not?" Blaine said and took the bottle. He took several large swallows and handed it back. "Thanks."
"Enjoy," Sebastian said with a grin and they danced back across the floor.
"You don't mind, do you, Kurt?" Blaine asked, nuzzling his neck.
"Of course not," Kurt said, though Blaine and alcohol didn't tend to mix well. He just wanted to have a good time and so far, the night was going great. Sebastian and Liam were keeping to themselves for the most part. The Warblers and New Directions were all getting along. The night could not have been more of a success.
One dark moment was when Sebastian insisted on dancing with Blaine and Liam had offered to dance with Kurt. Kurt had agreed if only to stay close to Blaine. Luckily it was a fast song. He saw the bottle passing back and forth between the two, but other than talking, nothing seemed untoward. Liam kept up a steady chatter about cars which Kurt just nodded along with, doing his standard shimmy to the beat.
Blaine met him when the song was over and left the dance floor to join Finn and Rachel at a table. Kurt told Blaine he was going to go to the bathroom. Blaine giggled in his ear and Kurt could smell the alcohol on his breath. He smiled and kissed his cheek. Nodding at Finn, his look asked his brother to keep an eye on him. Finn grinned and lifted his glass of soda in acknowledgement.
Kurt walked across the dance floor, following the sign and had just turned a corner that led into a hallway toward the restrooms when his arm was grabbed from behind.
"Blaine," Kurt said with a laugh, then stopped when he saw who it was. "Oh, Liam. What's up?" He tried to take his arm away but Liam just gripped it tighter. "Um, Liam, let me go," he insisted.
"Sorry, can't do that. You know, I usually prefer blondes. And boobs," Liam said, before grabbing the back of Kurt's head and slamming their lips together and trapping Kurt with his body.
Kurt panicked, the memory of Karofsky rushing through his mind. He fought against the bigger guy, pushing with all of his might and trying to raise his knee. Liam continued his onslaught on Kurt's mouth, mashing his lips so hard, Kurt couldn't bite him or cry out. Liam's sheer size prevented Kurt from doing anything except wriggling around. Finally he was able to free his arms and reached up to push against Liam's shoulders. He moaned at a sharp pain in his mouth as Liam grinded his lips against his teeth.
"Liam? What the hell?" Sebastian's said from behind them and Kurt actually felt relief at the sound of his voice.
"Oh shit," Liam said almost casually and stepped away from Kurt.
"Kurt?" Blaine's voice was filled with shock.
"Thank god, Blaine!" Kurt said and ran the few steps toward him, shaking and upset. "He just..."
"Get the hell away from me," his boyfriend replied, backing away, his hand in the air.
"Blaine, he attacked me," Kurt cried, shocked, continuing to walk towards him even as he turned away.
"Liam, how could you do this to me," Sebastian was saying behind them.
"Attacked you? You're arms were around him, Kurt," Blaine yelled. They were at the dance floor now.
"I was pushing him off of me! How could you believe I would kiss someone else?" Kurt insisted, unable to believe what was happening.
Blaine whirled around and pointed at Kurt. "I would never believe you were capable of this, and on top of it, to kiss Sebastian's date? You knew his history, that this has happened to him before! Was this some sort of sick payback because of your issues with him?" Blaine's lips were curled in fury. His voice was cold and filled Kurt with dread.
"Of course not, Blaine! Please, he attacked me, why can't you believe that?" Kurt cried, tears streaming down his face. He barely realized they were slowly being surrounded by Warblers and the New Directions alike.
"It sure didn't look like an attack. I heard you moaning! You know what? It's over, Kurt. I won't be with a cheater. I loved you, Kurt! Damn you!" Blaine yelled before turning and striding for the door.
Before Kurt could run after him, his mouth still hanging open in shock, he was jerked around.
"You little bastard! This is for me," Sebastian growled and punched Kurt in the jaw. "And this is for Blaine!" Before he could hit him again, Puck and Finn appeared and grabbed him from behind.
"You asshole!" Finn shouted and swung at Sebastian only to be pulled away by one of the adult volunteers.
"That's it! Party is over. You, you, and you, out!" The man said, pointing at Kurt, Finn, and Sebastian.
Kurt was quickly surrounded by the entire glee club and they made a mass exodus from the club.
"Oh my god, Kurt, you're bleeding," Rachel cried. They walked to Finn's truck and sat Kurt down in the passenger seat. He was shaking and crying.
"I didn't kiss him," he sobbed. "He attacked me. I was trying to get away from him and I couldn't."
"I'm so sorry, Kurt," Quinn said, pulling tissues out of her purse and dabbing at the blood around Kurt's mouth. Her eyes filled with tears as she saw the anguish on his face.
"He broke up with me," Kurt whispered, his eyes large and glazed.
"It'll get worked out. Here, hold this on your mouth." She said and turned to Finn. "You need to get him home. I think he's in shock."
"Okay. Puck, can you drive his car to our house?" Finn asked.
Puck agreed and after some vehicle shuffling, rides were arranged and the brothers were soon on their way home.
"Did you see him, Finn? I drove him. He might need a ride," Kurt mumbled around the handful of tissue. He didn't want Blaine to be stranded, no matter what had happened.
"Um. I, uh, saw him get in a car with Sebastian," Finn said quietly.
"Oh. Of course he would," Kurt said.
"Do you want me to take you to the hospital? Um, that guy, Liam. Did he hurt you?" Finn asked, looking over at him.
"No. No, I just want to go home. Please, Finn. I'm, I'm okay," Kurt responded quickly then moaned at the pain in his jaw.
As the truck rumbled toward home, Kurt leaned his head back and stared out the window at the passing street lights. He wasn't okay. There was no okay. What the hell happened tonight? How could Blaine think he would kiss someone else? And so easily. He had hoped that it was the alcohol talking. But the cold look that was in Blaine's eyes as he'd yelled at him then walked out had been only too clear. They were over.
