Chapter 40
The next week Kurt went back to NYADA and Sebastian started his french studies again. They saw Sam and Blaine and to Sebastian surprise he didn't find himself jealous over Blaine anymore, so he just enjoyed being back in NY and away from all the drama.
But unfortunately that didn't last longer, because Sebastian noticed that something was a little off with Kurt.
The first sing appear every time Kurt glance at his phone, and it looked that whatever thing he was looking after, wasn't going as he wanted, so he then put the phone away with a frown.
The second sing was that whenever Kurt's phone rang, he was quick to get up to get it. Which confused Sebastian a little, because Kurt always had a very relaxed relationship with his phone and before he often forgot to set on the sound, but know the sound was always on. Like he expected a call?
The third, was also phone related, Sebastian had answered Kurt's phone on many occasions but recently Kurt kept the phone really close.
It wasn't like Sebastian would be snooping on it, but he had always just picked it up and called from that, if he couldn't find his own or just started playing on it if he was bored, when Kurt was making dinner or something like that. But now, that wasn't an opportunity, because Kurt guarded the phone like it was an egg and he was its mother.
Sebastian didn't knew how to approach the problem, without sounding completely stupid and controlling . And controlling was something Sebastian really wanted not to come off as. Not. when he finally had made peace with the whole Blaine thing.
So he tried ignoring the nagging feeling, like something was off.
A week after they had come back from Paris, Sebastian was on his way over to Kurt's house, when he received a text from Sam, asking if he wanted to hang out, just the two of them.
He called Kurt and told him, to which Kurt had been happy and they agreed to meet in Sebastian's place later.
They always slept together, so nothing was suspicious about that. But as Sebastian hung up he couldn't help but feel something was off about the way Kurt had sounded. He was about to call him back but Sam texted him again.
He meet up with Sam at a small cafe, where they decided to eat before they headed back to Sebastian's place.
Kurt looked down to his phone, when he ended the call with his boyfriend, then he pushed the button so he could continue the call he had had on hold.
'Tom.. I'm back'
'Was that Seb?'
'Yeah.. He just wanted to say that he would spent the afternoon with Sam'
'That's great...'
There was a pause, Kurt could hear Tom breathing in the other end.
'So, any news on what you gonna do?'
'I don't know... Some part of me just want to say fuck off to my father and leave, but i'm just so scared about what will happen then..'
'Tom.. i'm so sorry about all this... i really wish I could do something... Are you sure you don't want Sebastian to know...'
But Tom interrupted him, before he could say anything
'I don't want to involve him in anything.. I've already messed up so much already, by dragging you into this..'
'I could have said no, that day you called..'
'We both know that you don't have it in you to say no if you care about someone Kurt.. You're just too good to do that ..'
'You're right.. I couldn't have said no even if I wanted.. And just so you know I'm glad I didn't, I'm happy to help you.'
'And I'm really grateful you have Kurt.. Really... But like I said, I don't know what to do..'
Kurt looked up to his ceiling, before he asked the next question
'Are you.. Are you still doing drugs?'
There was a long pause, then Tom whispered
'I only did it once, since you guys left. I have been in my room most of the time, trying to avoid as much of my dad as possible'
'Okay'
Was all Kurt said, because he didn't know how to respond to that. They both felt to silent again before Kurt got an idea.
'Maybe you should just come to NY?'
'And do what?'
'I don't know Tom, but you aren't going to ever be happy if you just do what your father wants. I get that its not an easy decision, but if you come here you have me and you have Bas..'
'But Seb doesn't know anything about..'
'I know that he doesn't know anything... But maybe if you came here, you could have the opportunity to tell him, i know he would support you, if you just tell him'.
'I don't know Kurt.. I just don't know'
They continued talking a couple of minutes, before they said goodbye.
Kurt was really frustrated, he wanted Tom to be safe and he was sure that as long as he stayed in Paris, that wouldn't happen, because of James. He was also angry that Tom couldn't just tell Sebastian, because as much as Kurt respected his choice, he couldn't help but feel like he was lying to Sebastian when he keep talking with Tom, when he didn't know.
Back at Sebastian's place he and Sam had just gotten inside and decided to set up a game they could play. Sam was in the kitchen making some tea, when he got an idea, he stuck his head out the kitchen door and shouted to Sebastian
'Hey.. We should call Kurt and ask if he wants to come now, then we can hang out and watch a movie all three?'
Sebastian looked up, kneeling in front of the tv, where he was in the middle of setting up the game.
'You just say that so you can cuddle with him..' Then he stuck his tongue out at Sam, who just grinned back.
'I'm not denying that.. You know that Kurt gives the best cuddle and if he happens to sit in the middle I can't help if my body seems to relax that much,so my head ends in his lap..'
Sebastian laughs out loud, he had really grown to appreciate Sam dorkiness and needs for being physical with his boyfriend.
'Then you should call him Sam, and tell him how much you ache for his touch' He says, and can help but laugh again when Sam fist bump the air and forgets all about the tea, and runs in to get his phone and calls Kurt.
An hour later, Kurt is sitting in the middle of Sebastian's couch, leaning against Sebastian, who has his arms around him and his head on his shoulder. Sam is curled up on Kurt's other side, with his head on his lap and Kurt's fingers are playing on his hair.
Sebastian is pretty sure, if a human could purr Sam would be doing exactly that. He grins and turns his head a little and whispers
'Princess..'
Kurt looks to the side and blinks up at him,a smile forming on his lips and Sebastian leans down to kiss him.
'You look tired..' Sebastian observes.
'I'm.. It's been a long week..'
'You can sleep if you want'
'Thanks Bas.. ' Kurt says, and snuggle deeper into his boyfriend's arms, the hand that was in Sam's hair a minute ago, find Sebastian's hand.
'Will you carry me to bed?'
Sebastian snorts a little, he really loves when Kurt is like this.
'Of course I will princess' He says and leaves a kiss on his cheek.
Kurt hums a little and not long after he drifts to sleep.
The movie ends an hour later, and Sam heads home, Sebastian, like he promised, carried Kurt back in bed, after helping him of with his clothes.
'I love you princess' He says, and kisses his forehead, then he goes back to the living room to turn off the tv.
When he is about to go back to the bedroom, he hears a phone beeping with a message and he looks back on the couch to see Kurt's phone there. It must have slipped out of his pocket earlier.
He walks over and picks it up. Halfway back to the bedroom, he stops and looks down on the phone, it's blinking with two unread messages. He knows that he probably shouldn't, but the nagging feeling from earlier is still there.
Sebastian swallows once, before he clicks on the first.
Seeing it's from Tom, Sebastian frowns a little, why is Tom texting Kurt?
From Tom: It was really good talking to you Kurt. Thank you .
He quickly click on the next
From Tom: Do you really think it would be a good idea to tell Seb? What if he get's mad at both of us, I don't want to ruin anything for you two.
Sebastian reads the last message two more times, before he turns around and walks back to the bedroom.
He doesn't know what the messages means. He looks down towards his boyfriend, sleeping peacefully in his bed. Then he strips down and go under the covers, snuggling up against Kurt.
He feels Kurt stir a little
'Shh.. It's just me princess' He whispers.
'Bas... Mmmm.. Love you' Kurt whispers, and snuggles close into Sebastian.
Sebastian smiles and kisses his boyfriends hair. He thinks about the texts from Tom and can't help but feel that something is definitely not as it should be. 'I love you too princess'. He whispers back.
