New Girl

Chapter 10: Sleepover part 2

(Natalie's p.o.v)

After we watch the movie, we play a few board games. Rachel wins most of them.

I take them outside and we bounce on my trampoline for a little bit. Why, I don't know. Brittany and Santana arrive soon after.

When we come inside, we get some snacks. I watch as Finn slips out the kitchen door. I narrow my eyes at him and he puts a finger to his lips.

Rachel picks up a bowl of popcorn and at that moment, Finn slips back in the room with his pillow. He smacks Rachel with his pillow, causing her to spill the popcorn all over the floor.

Rachel gasps. She clenches her fists and turns around to face Finn. She rips the pillow from his hands and smacks it against his face.

"PILLOW FIGHT!" she screams.

The room bursts into laughter as we all run into the living room to grab our pillows. I grab mine, sneak up to Blaine and whack it against him.

Blaine turns around and picks me up. I scream and laugh as he throws me onto the couch. I sit there and watch as Riley and Kurt hit each other repeatedly with their pillows while laughing hysterically.

Everyone seems to be having fun. This pillow fight goes on for a long time until everyone settles down, breathing heavily.

"Guys," Tina says. "Let's play SPIN THE BOTTLE!"

Everyone laughs and shouts. We run into my room and sit on the floor. Rachel sets a bottle on the floor. Where did she get that?

"I'll go first!" Rachel shouts. She spins it and it lands on none other than Finn Hudson. We all watch as she crawls over to Finn and starts kissing him.

They start making out and sucking each other's face so I gag and look away. I hear whistles and shouting.

"Ew. My turn!" announces Santana. It lands on Mike and she makes a face then pecks her lips on his. She pulls away and gags. Mike laughs at her.

Everyone whoops and hollers. They sound like they're drunk, even though no one drank anything.

"MY TURN!" shouts Riley. She grabs the bottle and spins it. It starts slowing down. It lands on... Kurt?

I look over at Blaine. He laughs nervously and I can tell he's upset.

Kurt smiles and they lean towards each other. Their lips connect and kiss. Instead of a peck on the lips, like Blaine expected, it turned into a minute of making out. Uh oh, I thought.

I sneak a glance at Blaine and see the hurt in his eyes. He doesn't even try to hide it.

Riley and Kurt break away and smile and laugh. Everyone, except for Blaine and I, whistle and shout.

I turn and see Blaine with tears in his eyes. Before I could stop him, he stands up and runs to my bedroom door. Tears are now streaming freely down his face. He yanks the door open, runs out and slams it shut.

My mouth drops open. I've never seen Blaine so upset. I hear him kicking the wall on his way downstairs.

I run open the door and call his name.

"Blaine!" I shout. "Please, don't leave." I hear Kurt running behind me. "Blaine wait!" he shouts.

"Leave me alone." he shouts back. "I never want to see anyone again."

I hear him slam the front door and I know he's gone. I run outside after him and catch up to him. I grab onto his arm.

"Blaine, please- stop." I say, breathing heavily. He turns to face me and he has tears streaming down his face. He looks broken.

"Blaine, look, I'm so sorry." I start.

He starts crying harder and I wrap my arms around him, comforting my friend.

(Kurt's p.o.v)

I stand at the bottom of the stairs and stare out the window. I watch as Natalie runs out to stop him. Blaine turns around to face her and he looks so hurt. Broken.

I feel silent tears come down my face. I feel so bad. I didn't really hurt him that badly. It was just a game. Right?

I realize then just how oblivious I've been. At lunch when I was talking to Riley, he looked jealous. I thought I was just imagining things.

How he was so hesitant to come to the sleepover, why Natalie had to talk to him outside, all of it.

Because I haven't been talking to him. Because I didn't notice. Because I ignored him for Riley.

I've been turning him down all week. Every time he asked me come to his house, or have dinner, I turned him down. So I could hang out with Riley.

I can't believe how stupid I've been.

I really wanted to run outside after him but I know he would just run away.

I'm a horrible boyfriend.

-------------------------------------------

(Natalie's p.o.v)

I've been standing here for a few minutes now, just hugging Blaine. Rocking him back and forth. Whispering compliments into his ear.

When he finally settled down I said "Come on, Blaine. Please don't leave. You don't have to go back up there and talk to them, just please don't go home. Not now. It's really dark."

He sighs. "I guess." he whispers.

I smile up at him. "Good. Now let's get inside. You can sleep on the couch. I will get your stuff from my room and bring it down so you don't have to talk to anyone. I will tell them not to bother you."

He smiles at me "Thank you so much." We walk inside, hand in hand.
