Don't stand so close to me

Part 9

The last month was great although the jocks started to insult his clothes and him in general again. But with Blaine by his side those insults couldn't bring Kurt down. But until now he has been lucky that there were only insults.

Kurt goes to his locker, taking the books out he needs for the next class. Blaine went to the bathroom fast but they'll meet at their locker so they can go to class together. Or not?

The moment Kurt closes his locker, he sees Dave and his gang walking up on him. Of course Kurt turns around, wanting to escape but it's to late. "What's up loser" Karofsky says, throwing a slushy in Kurts face. Laughing he walks away, his group following him like he's a king.

Kurt doesn't know what to feel. He's angry but also so sad and ashamed. So ashamed. But before he gathered his thoughts and emotions he hears a voice. A voice from what he doesn't tense up like he normally would. Blaine's voice.

"Kurt, Honey? What happened? Are you okay?" he asks worried. Dumb question Kurt thinks but that's just how Blaine is. Kurt turns around to the voice and mumbles "Karofsky". "Come with me" the smaller boy says, leading Kurt to the bathroom.

While Blaine helps his boyfriend washing out the slushy from everywhere no one says a word. But alone from the look on Kurts face the other boy can tell that he's mad.

"Sure you're okay?" Blaine asks for the third time today since Kurt got hit by that slushy. "Yes. Now stop asking. You start to annoy me with that" Kurt says harder than intended but doesn't apologize. He's clearly annoyed but also clearly not okay.

They just finished Glee Club and walk to Blaines house. His parents are out. Again. So the two boys want to do homework together and cook together. Or more Kurt will cook and Blaine will watch.

Sure he can cook since he has to do it a lot but despide the little incident that happened to Kurt while cooking when they got together, Kurt is really good and even better than Blaine.

Maybe cooking something can help Kurt to calm down and distract him from the slushy because Blaine doesn't know what else to do. It really seem to bother Kurt but if he doesn't talk to Blaine the boy can't try to help in any way.

Of course Blaine is right. As always they listen to music and while Blaine sings along, Kurt stays quiet. His mind gets lost in todays happening but only for a short moment before a pain brings him back in reality.

"Ouch" Kurt yelps and looks down to the sorce of the pain. He cut his finger. Deja Vu. "Kurt are you okay?" Blaine asks, rushing to his boyfriend and looks at his bleeding finger. Sure with asking Kurt if he's okay he had good intentions but for Kurt it was one time to much.

He takes a step back and yells "Will you stop with that question? I'm fine. I just cut my finger and got a slushy in my face which you had a hundred times already". Blaine sighs "Please don't cut me out Kurt. I just want to make sure you're okay".

"I don't want to cut you out. It's my safety mechanism and you know I can't control it. But I'm getting mad because of one stupid slushy and you never complained about one since I got to know you better. It's shit okay?" Kurt keeps yelling but he doesn't sound mad anymore. He sounds hurt and Blaine can see that his blue eyes start glittering.

"I don't anymore because I got used to it. My first slushies were horror and I complained non-stop about it, ask Rachel. Please just talk to me and don't cut me off about that" the smaller boy says and takes a deep breath after. He would love to hug the boy but he has to be careful with him at the moment so instead he focusses on what happened not long before.

"Let me see your finger" he says soft and caring. Deja Vu. The other boy extends his hand but remains silent. For now Blaine takes the towel besides the sink and gives it to his boyfriend. "Sit down. I get some band aid" the curly haired boy says.

Kurt nods and sits down, still not saying a word. He thinks about Blaines word and realizes not for the first time how lucky he is to have the silly boy with the curly hair and hazel eyes that Kurt get lost in everythime he stares into them.

While Blaine takes care of his boyfriends finger, Kurt just looks at the boy, admiring how careful and soft Blaine cleans the cut and puts the band aid on it. "Thank you" Kurt says quietly when Blaine is done and the other boy answers "Don't mention it. Are you ok- better now?". Kurt nods.

Only for seconds there's silence before Blaine asks "Do you want to talk about it?". Kurt shakes his head and hesistates before asking "Can you just hug me please?", his voice barely above a whisper.

Blaine smiles "Come here" and spreads his arms. Kurt changes from sitting on the kitchen chair to Blaines lap and feels two arms wrapped around him. Kurt sinks in the hug, enjoying the feeling of safety Blaine gives him alone with a hug, and burries his face in the crook of Blaines neck.

For now Blaine cooks and Kurt just watches him. They were almost dow anyways so there's nothing much left to do.

When dinner is ready the couple eats, not talking about what happened at school anymore.

Not in the mood for school work Kurt and Blaine get comfortable on the couch and cuddle. They still have one hour until Kurt has to go home and they want to enjoy that time together with just cuddling and music playing in the background.

Normally Blaine would suggest to do something like play games or watch a movie but he knows that all they both need are cuddles from the other and that's exactly what they do. Nothing more or less. Just cuddling.
