Blaine found his escape place in the school library. He went there when he just needed time to think, or to do homework. No one was ever there, though Blaine never understood why. It had been two weeks into the second semester, and Blaine couldn't believe how fast his senior year was going. Soon he'd be auditioning for NYADA, and then hopefully moving to New York with Rachel and Kurt.
Speaking of Kurt, Blaine was good. He was very good with himself and the way both of them were. The time they spent together in New York over break still made Blaine smile every so often. Of course, Kurt was his best friend and Blaine would always love him, but he finally accepted what they were. They didn't talk everyday, maybe ever couple days, but they texted during the week and Kurt always called Friday night. They were finally at ease with each other, though the kiss on New Year's still sent shivers through Blaine.
After finally opening himself up to his other friends. He grew closer to Tina and extra close to Sam. They were like the three musketeers. When he wasn't at one of his club meetings, he was doing homework with Tina, when he wasn't doing that, he was having video game marathons with Sam. It was nice having his own friends for the first time in a while. Maybe he was hanging around Sam too much, but something in his stomach would flutter when they were together. He knew that feeling, he had a crush.
At first he just laughed, it was Sam Evans for crying out loud. Sam, his very straight, very ridiculous friend was making him feel the way he felt when he had a crush on Kurt. It was just funny, but then as the two weeks went on, Sam was always around someway or another. He was his vice president which meant they had to go to student council meetings, in face they had one soon. His feelings developed further and now he is in a full-blown crush state. It was embarrassing and he hasn't told anyone, not even Kurt. He couldn't live it down.
He shook his head and tried to focus on his homework, but he heard Sam before he saw him. Like he said, Sam was always somewhere close. "Dude!" Sam pushed his work off the table, placing an iPad in its place. "Look at this! This is Hunter Clarington two years ago, look how skinny his head is! Okay! This is him now, look how much thicker his head is!"
Blaine watched in confusion as the old picture of Hunter morphed into one of him in a Warbler blazer and tie. He had to admit, he was bigger. "So, maybe he started working out?" he suggested.
"By doing skull binding exercises?" Sam exclaimed. "Dude! Human growth hormone! HGH! Same thing happened to Mark McGuire, Kirstie Alley, and Drew Carrey, and Star Jones, and Aretha Franklin..."
Blaine smiled. Sam was so cute when he got worked up. He tried so hard to get his point across, and it was almost as if Sam needed to be right to survive. The way his brows cringed up as he was trying to think of more names to throw at him. Sam was unbelievably cute. Oh god, those lips. Blaine wondered how he got them. They were so huge. What does it feel like to kiss them? Blaine knew that he, himself, shouldn't be thinking about that, but they were just there. Maybe he'd ask Brittany another time. She would answer. Blaine smiled and tilted his head. Okay, so he was smitten. Sue him.
"Dude. Dude! Are you even listening to me?" Sam asked as he waved his hand in front of Blaine's face. "This is a serious matter; I can't have you spacing out on me."
"You are looking too into this, Sam." Blaine stood up and collected his items that the boy had pushed off. "We need to get going to the student council meeting."
"The meeting doesn't matter now, Blaine! We need to look into this! We could potentially get back into Regionals." Blaine rolled his eyes playfully as he started out into the hall. Sam followed close on his heels, keeping his mouth shut until they were around the corner from the classroom. "Look, I'm telling you it's been keeping me up at night. Something weird's going on with the Warblers. They're doing all those weird flips and superhuman jumps at Sectionals."
