Chapter 2

oOoOoOoOoOo

"No, Blaine."

Kurt could see the world crash in his counterpart's eyes. The desperation and disbelief tugging at Kurt's heart. In that moment, he wanted to say yes, if just to ease the heartbroken look on Blaine's face. And yet, he knew that if he did, then they would both end up unhappy, neither ready for this commitment.

Kurt could hear the voices of his friends in the background. Undoubtedly questioning his choice and reasons. At the moment, he didn't care for anything past Blaine, and the emotions flicking across his face.

Blaine moved from where they were standing, not a foot apart, to one of the many couches and seats lining the hallway. When Kurt had gone inside, he had squeezed Sebastian's arm before letting go, taken Blaine's and led the pair into the hallway, only one wall away from the New Directions, Warblers and his dad. He had joined their hand together, rested his forehead against Blaine's and said it. No.

There was silence from both parties. Kurt was trying to read his boyfriend, while Blaine was obviously processing his choice.

"I knew. I knew from the moment you didn't say anything immediately, you just kind of…stared…at me. You couldn't say yes." Blaine's voice was quiet, almost emotionless. The devastation in his eyes, on those stairs, had been real then, Kurt realised. "Almost everyone tried to tell me. They said, you're too young, you won't last, what are you thinking? But I thought that, no matter what, we could do anything."

There was silence again. The noise from the other side of the wall had died down to a faint buzz.

Kurt walked to Blaine. "Never doubt that I love you." Beat. "I will always love you, but I meant what I said, at McKinley, on the stairs. Right now, this relationship is…fragile…and I can't say yes to something like this - like marriage! - when I fully trust you, and when we've only been together for days. I'm sorry Bee." Switching back to his nickname was a tiny comfort in this situation. He had first heard Cooper say it, but it had imprinted itself in Kurt's mind.

"I- I can underst-tand." Both boys ignored the hitch in his voice. "Can we still be boyfriends after this?"

"I don't know…"

"Could…could we go back to friends, just for a little while, and then try again?" A sigh. "This is going to be stressful for everyone when they hear." Kurt flicked his head back towards the room containing their friends.

"I don't want this to become this massive elephant between us, though."

Kurt smiled. "I know."

They gravitated towards each other, Blaine pulling Kurt into a needy embrace, longing to feel grounded after the hour of anxiety and stress. They stayed like that for a long moment, just breathing the other in. If they went back to friends, they couldn't kiss and hug as often as now.

Blaine took a breath shakily, hands trembling against Kurt's waist.

"Can I kiss you? I just need-"

"I know." Kurt leant back the tiniest amount, so their faces were millimetres apart. Blaine closed the gap, leaving him open to Kurt, needing the touch and connection they shared. The kiss deepened, both grasping tightly to the other. Kurt felt a tear touch his nose, yet he wasn't the one crying. Opening his eyes fully, he assessed Blaine. The shorter one kept his eyes closed, not allowing his final wall to fall. Kurt gathered his friend in his arms, enclosing him in love and comfort.

Eventually, what seemed hours later, but only 5 minutes, they separated, both straightening their clothes and Blaine wiping his face of tears. They both allowed themselves to take a moment and breathe.

"Do you think you'll be alright to face everyone?"

"I- yeah, yeah I will. You?"

"I'm, I'm fine." Kurt cleared his throat to rid it of the choked feeling. He relaxed the muscles in his shoulders. "Time to face the masses." He attempted to add a touch of humour to his words, and by the strangled laugh from Blaine, he succeeded.

They walked slowly to the door, taking a final moment to appreciate the peace of the corridor. The room that had become almost silent in their absence filled immediately with voices loudly questioning the pair. All of them were seated on couches and side tables. Kurt could feel Blaine almost flinch back from them and moved ever so slightly in front. He was about to yell for them to shut up but someone beat him to it.

"Can you all just SHUT THE HELL UP?!" The owner of the voice stood from where he had been sitting between Jeff and Trent. Everyone looked shocked at him, but he stood still, taking the time to assess Kurt and Blaine, and the way that Kurt seemed to defend Blaine.

"Thank you Bas." Kurt was extremely amused. His friend had never gotten so defensive of him before, except that one time at New Years…

"You're welcome Kurt." His friend was now equally amused, having taken in the shocked and slightly incredulous faces of their friends. He looked at their silent faces and gave a short, satisfied nod before sitting down.

The main two boys turned to each other in silent query of how to break the news. Blaine shrugged to Kurt's raised eyebrow, causing Kurt to sigh and turn back to the room. The other occupants just blinked at the silent communication.

"We are not getting married. At least, not any time in the foreseeable future." Kurt was blunt and quick, feeling it would be like ripping a band-aid off.

Burt looked accepting, Sebastian was indifferent, obviously already aware of his decision. Many of the Warblers looked heartbroken, Niff and Trent in particular. They had all been die-hard Klainers since day one. Rachel, Santana and Mercedes looked indifferent, if slightly pleased. The majority of New Directions didn't have an opinion on the matter, not having been around for the long haul of the relationship.

After doing the quick assessment, Klaine nodded in satisfaction. They squeezed their conjoined hands before dropping them completely and making their way into the fold. Conversations started up again, much to the relief of the pair.

Later on, when they shared a smile across the room, they knew that one day, maybe, they could try to go back to being together, but neither were ready to start something new right now, especially with the stress of Nationals, exams and graduation already wearing down on Blaine.
