" i hope rach is ok lets face it santana usnt exactly tactful " kurt said as they reached the door to the loft blaine unlocked it and they walked in.

" blaine " kurt whispered blaine turned to look where kurt was pointing and he saw rachel and sebastian cuddled up fast asleep on the couch. rachel's head resting on his chest with his head resting on her hair and his arms around her.

" awe" blaine said before pulling kurt into their room so they didnt wake them up.

the next morning

sebastian woke up his neck aching it was only as he opened his eyes he realised he was still on the couch and tbat rachel was still fast asleep snuggled up to him there was a blanket over them which he suspected was put there by blaine.

he watched her sleeping her breathing steady ber dark eyelashes occasionally fluttering he knew he had to get up and start getting ready for college but he couldn't bring himself to move andwake her up. thruth was he enjoyed having her snuggled up to him and despite the fact his neck ached he had slept better than he had the past few nights.

last night had been amazing after santana left and they had spoken they had made out for a long time before ssitting cuddled up watching tv. he found himself staring at her lips thinking of their kiss last night.

" morning" he heard blaine whisper he turned slowly not to wke her up.

" morning" sebastian said with a smile on his face.

" do you want coffee" blaine asked

" i always want coffee" sebastian mouthed back.

"mmm" rachel made a noise he turned to watch her stir she opened her eyes and looked surprised to be innthe living room she then turned to face him. his heart was racing he hoped she would freak out and run off to her room.

" have we been here all night" she asked sleepily.

" yeah" sebastian said smiling at her she looked at him for a moment before smiling back.

" two strong black coffees" blaine said handing them they mugs to them.

" thanks " rachel said

" and thanks for the blanket " sebastian said

" its kurt you should thank for that" blaine said

a short while later
