Designated Driver (Kurtbastian)

Chapter Five

There was a warm chest underneath Kurt's head, and arms that were attached to said chest that wouldn't let him go no matter how hard he tried. And he had. Several times. He knew that the arms belonged to Sebastian, the boy he had revealed his secret to, which was something that he hadn't told anyone before. And that freaked him out. Like, a lot. Because he hadn't even told his now ex-boyfriend about the accident or his nightmares or panic attacks but he had told the smirky meerkat.

The thought of Blaine sent a stab of pain to Kurt's heart. Even though he had told Sebastian that he felt fine about the break up, it still hurt him to think that his first love had cheated on him. He knew that first loves don't always last, but Kurt had thought that he and Blaine were different, that they would be together forever. But maybe he should've listened to his gut instinct when he thought that something was off with the way Blaine had acted with Sebastian.

Speaking of Sebastian, Kurt groaned as he tried to get out of the green eyed boy's grip once more, but with no luck. Fed up, Kurt bit down on Sebastian's chest causing the boy to yelp in pain. As Sebastian sat up and checked the bite mark, not paying attention to the fact that Kurt was still on his chest, Kurt fell to the floor.

"What the hell was that for?!" Sebastian asked, glaring at Kurt who was brushing his pants off.

Kurt glanced at Sebastian before going back to getting the dust off his pants. "You wouldn't let me go so I did the first thing I could think of."

"Oh." Sebastian seemed to have remembered what happened before they fell asleep. "Um... are you okay?"

"If you're talking about the fact that I ended up revealing my biggest secret to someone I barely know and then ended up falling asleep cuddling said person, then yeah, I'm doing just fine." Kurt knew that he shouldn't be acting so harshly to the warbler after all Sebastian had done for him, but his mind was a muddled mess and the fact that Sebastian was still shirtless wasn't exactly helping. I mean seriously? How is it fair that Sebastian was gifted with this amazing body-

"See something you like?" Kurt jerked his eyes away from Sebastian's chest to see the boy smirking at him. Kurt could already feel his cheeks start to redden.

"Of course not, I was just... checking the bite mark to see if I had done any real damage." Kurt kept his gaze rooted to Sebastian's messy floor, afraid to make eye contact with the boy.

"All jokes aside, are you sure you're okay?" Kurt chanced a glance at Sebastian and was shocked to see sincere concern in those beautiful green eyes.

Was he okay? Kurt wasn't so sure. He was upset about Blaine, exhausted from his panic attack, and scared about what this meant for his acquaintanceship with Sebastian. But all he knew was that had been the best sleep he had had in a long time.

"I'm a little shaky, but I'm fine. I'm sorry that I kind of pushed all this stuff on you."

"Don't be sorry. I know the feeling of dealing with a heavy burden."

"Okay... Well, I'm just going to leave then." Kurt walked over to the door and put his hand on the knob before turning toward Sebastian. "Um, bye."

Kurt opened the door and put one foot out into the hall when Sebastian yelled, "Wait! Let me walk you to your car."

Kurt shook his head. "You don't need to do that."

"I insist." Sebastian held the door out farther for Kurt to walk through and then followed the chestnut haired boy to the parking lot.

Monday afternoon, Kurt slumped in the back of the choir room, using his posture to ward off Blaine and Rachel's attempts to get him to get back together with his ex-boyfriend. Blaine had the nerve to go up to him that morning and feign innocence. Kurt hadn't bothered to tell Blaine that he had the photo or even the fact he knew Blaine had cheated on him. He had just slammed his locker shut, gave his ex-boyfriend a fierce glare, and stormed away.

Kurt was still confused about what had happened with Sebastian. It was so unlike him. He had gone to Sebastian's dorm and thanked him, had thanked someone he thought was supposed to be his enemy, someone he once thought was competition. He then had told Sebastian the truth behind what happened to his mother and then ended up cuddling him! He didn't know what made Sebastian get through the wall he had carefully put up.

Kurt looked up when he heard the person next to him say, "Hey," He turned to his left to see Puck slouching in the chair next to him. "If you want, I could beat the hobbit up for you."

"Thanks Noah, but that won't be needed."

"Are you sure? Because-"

Puck was interrupted when Mr. Schue walked into the room, late as always. Kurt sighed, hoping that this week's lesson would be good enough to distract him.

"So this weekend," Mr. Schue started. "I had lunch with my mother and she gave me a great idea for this assignment."

Mr. Schue turned toward the white board and started to write on the board. Kurt leaned forward to read the word but jerked back when he read the word in black.

Mothers.

Sebastian was in his dorm room, ignoring his history homework, when he heard his phone ringing. He pressed answer and put the phone to his ear.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Sebastian, it's Kurt."

"Hi...what can I help you with?"

"Um... I just..." Sebastian thought he heard Kurt sniffle. "You know what? Never mind, I'm not sure why I called you. I'm sorry for bothering-"

"Kurt. What's wrong?"

"I-I... can I come up? I don't know anyone else I could talk to and you already know what happened so I wouldn't have to explain and-"

"Yes, Kurt. You can come up."

"Oh, thanks, I'll be up in a couple minutes."

"Okay... see you soon."

"See you."

Sebastian ended the call and flopped down onto his bed. Jeff was in Nick's dorm room doing God knows what, so he and Kurt would have the rom to themselves. Not that they would do anything that would cause them the need to be alone, but whatever Kurt needed to talk about, it would probably be something that was supposed to be for Sebastian's ears only.

Sebastian would stick by what he had said to himself and would do everything he could do to protect Kurt. He wasn't going to let another person go through something alone again.
