Love, and its Costs

The Birthday Present

"Hey bud!" Bernie greets Blaine at the front door of his pent house. He wags his tale, and Blaine rubs the spot behind Bernie's ear, he liked that spot. He sits on the couch in his living room. It has been a week since that awkward lunch thing with Sean and Kurt.

Ever since Kurt and I promised put everything behind us, I can't keep my mind off him. I mean, he is EVERYTHING! That night with Kurt, he rocked me. I mean he had me yelping and screaming for mercy. Thank god he was drunk that night, so he couldnt remember that part. 

The whole week Blaine and Kurt has shared some glances, and smiles at eachother.

He basically made my heart skip a beat each time he looked at me..... Oh Blaine. This is NOT good. NOT good AT ALL! I mean for god's sake, he's married. For 5 yrs. And I dont want to ruin that. I mean I do like him.... But I just dont know if those feelings are strong enough. It's bad enough that I slept with him....

His thoughts were interrupted by a call from Sam.

"Hey dude! Happy Birthday man!"

"Thanks Sam."

"Hey listen, I'll be heading to NY tonight. And I was hoping to crash your place for tonight, and maybe have a birthday party there. I'll bring some of your old friends from high school. Do you remember Artie?"

"Um.... Yeah. He's the disabled one."

"Right. Now how bout Mercedes, and Racheal, and, I think that's it. The rest are stuck in college right now. Theyre buzy."

"Okay. Yeah sure."

"And I might bring a friend that I met  at the model agency. He has a nice body, your type, and he's gay!"

Blaine laughs in the phone. "Thanks Sam. But I'm not in the mood to mingle."

"Oh come on dude! You need someone! At least just a  fling of some sort, because trust me, you need some pleasure."

"Sam!"

"What? It's true. What do u say?"

"Alright. Alright. But just talking, no one night stands."

"Yeah. yeah. I got it."

"Alright see you in a bit."

"Yeah. Bye. " Sam hangs up the phone, and Blaine laughs at how awkward that conversation was.

He quickly texts Kurt,

Blaine: hey Kurt. I have a party tonight. You and Sean can come.

Kurt: Yeah sure. What's the celebration?

Blaine: Its my birthday, my best friend Sam wanted to celebrate it, and yeah.

Kurt: okay. What time?

Blaine: around 7?

Kurt: okay. I'll see u then!

Blaine smiles, and goes shopping for food and ice cream. When he gets back, its already 6, and he still has to get ready his place, and food, and himself. He cleans Bernie's toys, and puts them in Bernie's room. He puts bowls  of chips, and dip on the table and some drinks out. When he is done, he plays some music from his playlist. The first one that came on was a Katy Perry song. He sang along, and got dressed himself.

Wearing a button up shirt with a bowtie, and puts on some tight jeans. When he checks his hair, he hears a knock on the door. He goes down stairs and opens the door to Sam with his suit case, and a box.

"Happy Birthday!!" he says, Blaine hugs him. And pulls away. "This is a cake, it for you."

"Thanks Sam!" he grabs the box, and puts it in the kitchen. Sam walks in with Artie, Racheal, Mercedes, and his friend.
