"So to get to my house you turn here and-" Puck was cut off.

"What? I thought we were all gonna hang out?!" Kurt exclaimed and turned to the backseat.

Puck glanced at Blaine. "Kurt I don't know," he started to whisper, "what about Mr. Grumps over there."

"Yeah. What about me, Puck?" Blaine butted in.

"Well, I thought we could all hang out. Bonding time, guys!" Kurt was desperate to get his two best friends to at least tolerate each other.

"Kurt, we were going to watch Moulin Rogue together!" Blaine whined, trying to keep his eyes on the road.

"Puck can watch with us."

"But-"

"No buts. Only bonding."

***

Kurt and Blaine were snuggled on the couch with Puck sitting on the recliner with a bowl of popcorn. The movie started so he leaned back and watched.

When Come What May came on, Kurt said to Blaine, "If we get married, this song should play at our wedding."

"Definitely," Blaine said.

Kurt looked at Puck. "Are you okay?" He was crying.

"Yeah I'm fine I just..." he ran off to the bathroom. Kurt glanced worriedly at Blaine and ran after the him.

***

"Puck? I'm coming in." Kurt was immediately hugged when he walked in.

"I miss him so much," Puck sobbed.

"Who?" Kurt had no idea what was happening.

Puck just remembered Kurt didn't remember anything from last night. He was sort of hoping he did. "N-no one." He attempted to stop crying. "Can you just drive me home?"

"No I want to talk about what's bothering you."

"Please just take me home. I'll explain on the way there."

"Okay fine," Kurt started to walk out of the bathroom, but remembered he didn't have his car there.

***

"Blainey... can I borrow your car?" Kurt tried to sound as convincing as possible, even using his puppy eyes.

"For what?"

"To take Puck home."

"Well I can just drive if that's all."

Kurt looked at Puck but he seemed unresponsive. "Fine, I guess."

They all climbed in the car with Kurt phone for directions.

***

About half way there, somehow Kurt remembered the party and what Puck told him. Everything made sense. He wanted to pull over and give Puck a hug, but he wouldn't.

They finally got to Puck's house and Kurt stepped out of the car with Puck.

Kurt waited a little and decided to get it out of the way. "Puck I remember the party, and what you said."

"Oh thank god."

"Is that why you were crying?"

Puck didn't answer right away. "You and Blaine are so perfect for each other.... Me and Elliot had that. Just don't screw it up, ok? He loves you." He looked at Blaine.

"Hey!"

"What?"

"Admit it. You're warming up to him."

"Nuh uh!"

—————

Kurt got into the car after saying goodbye to Puck. "Are you coming back over?" Blaine asked.

"Do you know anyone named Elliot?"

"Um... there was an Elliot that came to Dalton last year. Why?"

"Do you have his number?"

"Kurt, why?"

"It's a surprise!"

"Well I might have his number but I still don't understand why you keep dodging my questions."

Kurt thought for a second. "I'm reuniting someone with... an old friend and Elliot... might know where to find that friend."

Blaine looked at him like he was crazy. "I'll look in my contacts when we get back to my house. But are you coming back? I want to actually spend time with you."

"Sure, but after I get some answers outta you!" He poked Blaine in the stomach and laughed.

***

"Kurt I have an Elliot in my contacts but there's no last name." Blaine and Kurt were sitting across from each other at the dinner table on their phones.

"Did he ever mention a boyfriend?"

"No... were you his boyfriend?!" Blaine joked.

"Blaine, we were dating last year!" Kurt smiled. "But back to the Elliot thing: are you sure?"

"Elliot never spoke to me. The only reason I have this number is because we had to do a project together."

"Hmm. Show me the contact photo." Blaine went back to his contacts and showed him. "Oh my god I know who that is."

(A/N)
Yes. Elliot as in Elliot Gilbert, but like, their age. I just didn't want to make up my own character for this. And also Adam Lambert. No arguments there.
