May 13, 2014. 6:30pm. Bushwick, New York.

Kurt was freaking out. He had a date, a real, honest to god date and he was going to be late. He blames Rachel for hogging the bathroom, but if he was being completely honest, he just couldn't figure out what to wear.

“Kurt! The door!” Rachel yelled, causing Kurt to start really freaking out. Blaine wasn't suppose to be there until seven.

“I'll be there in a second!” Kurt yelled back, putting the finishing touches on his hair and checking his outfit one last time to make sure he hadn't forgotten anything… like pants. Deciding he was as good as he was going to get, he took one more look in the mirror to prepare himself for this. He was going on a real date with an absolute gorgeous guy who for some reason, actually seems to like him back.

Blaine was sitting on the couch when Kurt walked into the living room. He was glad he was sitting because if he hadn't been, he probably would have fallen over. Kurt was wearing a pair of black skinny jeans and a light red, almost pink, button up that made his eyes look even more blue than they are. “Wow Kurt, you look amazing.” Blaine wanted to say more, but he couldn't find words to describe how amazing Kurt looked, he had to pinch himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming.

“Thanks, so do you.” Kurt smiled, taking in Blaine's attire, he was wearing a pair of dark wash skinny jeans, a navy blue polo, and a white bowtie with gold lines through it.

“I'm sorry I'm here early, I just couldn't wait any longer, I've been ready since five.”

Kurt smiled at the thought of Blaine being nervous for their date, it makes Kurt feel a little better about his own nerves, especially since this is his first real date. He's “dated” a few guys here and there at school, but none of them were serious enough to warrant an actual date like this.

“I was thinking, since we have time, maybe we could walk instead of taking a cab or the bus, the city is so pretty this time of year, it would be a shame to ignore it.” Blaine suggested, hoping that maybe a walk would help him get rid of some of his nerves. He's not really sure why he's so nervous, it's not like this is his first date. But it is his first date with Kurt and he really doesn't want to screw this up, so that could be part of it.

“Sounds perfect. Lead the way.” Kurt said, opening up the door, letting Blaine go ahead of him. “We're leaving Rachel!” He yelled, hoping she would hear him.

“Your loft is beautiful Kurt, it looks ten times better than what my apartment did when I was in college.”

“Thank you. I did most of the designing, Rachel helped me with the color schemes and all that so I can't really take all the credit.”

“Have you ever given any thought to being an interior designer?” Blaine asked as they entered the elevator.

“I've thought about it more than once actually, but performing is my passion, I'd rather be on the stage and in the spotlight than anything so I just do designing for fun. Although, I did have an internship with Vogue.com when I first got to the city and I will say, fashion was a career choice that I almost chose.”

“I could definitely see that. I'm sure you'd be good at anything you tried.”  

“You've obviously never seen me ice skate before, it's disastrous.” Kurt said with a laugh as the elevator came to a hault. “Where to?”

“Follow me, it's a surprise.” Blaine winked and headed off towards the heart of the city.

They walked in comfortable silence, their arms brushing every once in a while. Neither man had ever felt so comfortable on a first date.

“Can I be honest?” Kurt spoke up after several minutes of silence.

“Of course, what's on your mind?”

“This is my first date.”

“You mean, your first date with me.”

“No, I mean my first date. Ever.” Kurt bit his lip, wondering if maybe he shouldn't have told Blaine. What if it made Blaine not want to go on a date with him since he's not experienced or anything.

“Oh my- Kurt, why didn't you say something? I didn't realize.” Blaine stopped walking, amazed and honored that Kurt's chose to share this first with him of all people.

“I didn't want to embarrass myself, I'm a sophomore in college and I haven't even had a first date yet.”

“Oh Kurt, you really have no idea how amazing you are, do you?” Blaine smiled, taking Kurt's hand and leading him over to a park bench so they could talk without worrying about people running into them. “I'm honored you're sharing this first with me, sure a little heads up would have been nice so I could have done something better, but I'm not going to think any different of you for this.”

“Really? You don't think I'm pathetic?” Kurt asked, looking down at where his hand was still resting in Blaine's.

“Of course I don't Kurt. I think you're an amazing guy who I'm very lucky to be able to take on his first date. And for the record, I will never, ever, think you're pathetic for anything Kurt, it's your life, you and only you can decide how you live it and no one should ever judge you for it. I know not everyone sees it that way, but I promise you, I will never judge you for anything.”

Kurt smiled gratefully at Blaine, pulling him into a hug. “Thank you. I really needed to hear you say that.”

“I really like you Kurt, I don't care how experience you are at dating, all I care about is making sure that you're happy.”

“I am. Happy that is.” Kurt said, standing up and offering his hand for Blaine. “Come on, we don't want to be late do we?”

Blaine stood up, accepting Kurt's open hand with a smile. He wasn't sure if it was possible to fall in love so quickly, but Blaine's pretty sure he's falling in love with Kurt. Actually, he's pretty sure he fell in love with Kurt the first time he ever saw him, it's like they were meant to be together. And maybe, just maybe, they are meant to be together.
