AU in which Kurt never goes to spy on the Warblers before sectionals. Kurt and Blaine first meet when Cooper takes his younger brother to a strip club to celebrate his 18th birthday. That evening, a chance encounter leads both boys down a path that is more than they bargained for. But when trouble pops up in the form of a familiar face, it could all end before it ever really starts.
Author's Notes: Stuff you should know: The idea for this story came from this (http://ivegoneawayinsidemyhead.tumblr.com/post/16346715470/glee-au-in-which-underage-blaine-sneaks-into-a) gif set on Tumblr. There will be angst and sex and perhaps a smidgen of fluff. What would a Klaine fic be without all of those things? Because we hadn't met him yet when I started writing this, my characterization of Cooper is based, in part, on the adorable version of him created by (http://asktheanderbros.tumblr.com/) AsktheAnderbros on Tumblr (which is sadly no longer online). I just loved that version of him so much and he fit with my headcanon version of Blaine to a T. Thanks for the inspiration!In this universe, Kurt never transfers to Dalton or meets Blaine (who obviously never transfers to McKinley). Both are 18 and still in high school. Kurt is a senior. (You'll have to wait and see about Blaine.)I want to thank Lindsay for being my beta and talking me off a ledge when I second guessed myself. Please know there is no one I would rather overanalyze our glorious OTPs with. Also, Jamie....thanks for the suggestion on Kurt's stage name. It fits him so perfectly, much like you and me. ; )Also posted on ff.net under the same penname.
