We Can Dance Until We Die "What in the world are you doing, Blaine?" asked Kurt, as his husband fiddled with the old CD player in their living room."I told you," said Blaine, finally getting the thing to work. Soft piano filled the room. Blaine walked slowly over to Kurt and held out his hand; Kurt was suddenly struck with the image of a much young Blaine at his first prom. "Excuse me," said Blaine, humor in his tone, along with something more. "May I have this dance?""You may," said Kurt, laughter in his voice, too. "You might need to give an old man a break, though. Help me up?""Always," said Blaine.Kurt put his hand in Blaine's and it seemed like their wrin
Good Boy Finn had been trying for weeks to convince Burt and Carole into getting a dog. It started after the television got stuck on Animal Planet and he couldn't find the remote to change it (he had actually been sitting on it). A show called Dogs 101 was on, which convinced Finn that the Humdel family needed a boxer dog."I swear I'll take care of it," Finn said to Carole as he followed her through the house."You can barely take care of yourself," said Kurt, raising an eyebrow. Personally, he wasn't a pet person. The idea of having dog hairs all over his bed and clothes actually made him annoyed - already.Finn frowned at Kurt, but turned back t
Kurt Fabray and Quinn Hummel10 GLEEIt was a week before Valentine's day and Kurt had to admit, he was hoping that Blaine might ask him out for the special day. He never really liked the holiday that much. He would usually wake up and go down stairs and get a small box of chocolates from his mother, plus a kiss on the cheek. Then he would quickly get out the house, because his mom and dad were always way too disgusting.Last year had gone without much thought. In the last year, a lot of holidays had passed, and Kurt would usually spare a thought of "oh, this is my first Christmas, or Easter, or whichever, without my family."It had been easy to forget about this, especi
Kurt Fabray and Quinn Hummel 9 School began again, which suited Kurt just fine. That meant hey wasn't grounded anymore, and could spend time with Blaine again.Finn was excited about some sort of champion game for football. Ever since Coach Beiste took over the football team at the beginning of the year, they had been doing very well. Well, at least the Cheerios did a lot more celebratory cheers at the games. Kurt didn't know the first thing about football (even after growing up with his father), but since he was on the Cheerios, attended all the games.The only down side with returning to school was having to deal with the football jocks. All the football players that w
Love, A Simple Duty Chapter 8 Two days after the incident, the entire town knew.The first day began just fine. They woke in each other's arms, with sloppy morning kisses. Kurt and Blaine attended school and no one treated them differently at all. They arrived back at Kurt's house and had a wonderful dinner and evening as a family and then they were able to fall asleep together once again.The second day, they knew that something wasn't right. As they walked into the courtyard at Dalton, everyone stared outright. The boys they went to school with whispered and pointed. In class, teachers stared just as much as the students. Some teachers even sent angry looks their way.
Dancing in the Moonlight Prologue - (Written by MiryahExcerpts from the journal of B. Anderson, navigator of the Audition, recorded during his voyage to Antarctica:The journey had been uneventful (surprisingly so when considering the interesting individuals sailing on the two small ships of our expedition,) until we hit a block just south of the Valkyrie dome. After Captain Lopez made some decidedly daring decisions we found ourselves under the surface of the ice in a network of tunnels. They seemed to be leading into our desired direction, and if geologist Jones did make a remark of the way they also sloped gently but firmly downwards, no one paid mind.A
Love, A Simple Duty Chapter 7 Finally telling Finn of Kurt's preferences for men didn't go at all how Kurt imagined.First, Finn seemed more or less shocked at the confession (though, to be fair, Kurt didn't waste time with a preamble before telling him). Then he looked thoughtful and said: "Do you mean like Rachel's family?"That made Kurt stop short. He hadn't even thought that maybe Finn knew about Rachel's fathers. But then, when he thought about it, it did make perfect sense that Rachel told him. He was going to be marrying her one day."Yes," said Kurt after a long moment. "Like Rachel's family.""Oh." Finn looked at Kurt for a long moment without blinking. "Wel
Kurt Fabray and Quinn Hummel 8 GLEE"I can't believe we're having a party," said Kurt as they looked around the decorated living room. Music played softly from the stereo and glasses and food were laid out on the coffee table. "Burt and Carole are out and we're having a party. Oh my god.""Kurt, we're teenagers," said Quinn dryly. "Three teenagers. Like they didn't expect us to have a party when they go away for the weekend." Finn came in from the front door, carrying five pizzas. "Plus, it's New Years. Duh, we're having a party.""New Years day," said Kurt absently. "Well, New Years day night " He sighed. "We're cleaning up everything before they get back," said K
Kurt Fabray and Quinn Hummel 7 The next morning, Kurt woke up to sore bones. He hadn't slept that well and evidently, what little he did sleep was spent in a horrible position, leaving his neck sore. Kurt quietly got out of bed, leaving a sleeping Quinn behind. He went up the stairs, contemplating coffee."Hey bud."Kurt jumped as he was reaching for a coffee cup. Burt was at the counter, sipping on a cup already."Sorry - I didn't mean to scare you, uh god, that was stupid of me." Burt looked mortified. "After what happened "Kurt sighed and nodded. "Yes, well, I suppose I'm a little jumpy. But it's not your fault ""Feels like it.""How?""Look, Kur
Kurt Fabray and Quinn Hummel 6 I'm pretty sure I've reached second base with the lockers at this school.That Karofsky guy still pushing you? : (Of course. It's ridiculous.Are you sure you can't tell the faculty No, Blaine. Just like you said about your old school - they don't want to do anything.Want to meet for coffee after school?Kurt bit his lip and looked away from his phone at Quinn. She and Mercedes were practicing the dance routine with Mike in the corner.I don't know I was suppose to go the store with Quinn She can come, too. I don't mind.Ok then. See you at the one in between us?Sure thing. Have 2 go - Wes is about to hit me with
Love, A Simple Duty Chapter 6 The house below them was empty and quiet, save for the ticking of clocks. It was one of the first moments in a week that Kurt and Blaine were alone.Kurt leaned back into Blaine's warm chest, Blaine's legs wrapped loosely around him and extending out on the small window seat in Kurt's bedroom. Blaine's arms were enveloping Kurt's middle and he was kissing Kurt's clothes shoulder absently. Kurt tried not to focus on this and instead stared intently at the novel in front of him, The Prince and the Pauper, by Mark Twain.Though it was a good read, Kurt found that Blaine's soft kisses, which were making their way up his neck, were far to distra
Klaine at a Waterpark "Are you sure you have enough sunblock on?" laughed Blaine as Kurt began to add another layer to his chest and shoulders."My nickname is Porcelain, Blaine," said Kurt dryly, thrusting the bottle of SPF 90 into Blaine's hands. "We are at a waterpark and I will look like a lobster for the rest of the summer if I'm not careful. Now put some on my back and neck.""Of course," laughed Blaine.Blaine was happy to tag along with Kurt and the rest of New Directions for a trip to the closest waterpark halfway through the summer. He had never actually been to a waterpark before, but was excited to venture on the rides."Ok, come on, we're going to
Summer Swim "No, Blaine Anderson. No way.""Please, Kurt? For me?""You think those puppy dog eyes work, when in reality, they just don't.""Of course they work - I use them all the time.""I humor you all the time."Blaine frowned - well, more like pouted - at Kurt. "Why won't you go swimming with me, Kurt? What's the use of having a pool in my backyard and not using it?""I'm not stopping you from swimming, Blaine," snipped Kurt, crossing his arms in front of his body firmly. "I'll just be on the patio - in the shade.""You can't be worried about burning, Kurt.""Have you seen my skin, Blaine? I roast.""Actually, I have seen your skin, quite
Proud GLEEBurt sat in the living room, a rerun of the Deadliest Catch on the television, volume low and reading over the newspaper absently."I'm going out, Burt!" called Finn from the front of the house."Be back by midnight, Finn!" Burt called back, looking over the Funnies."But it's summer!""Doesn't matter, kid."He heard Finn grumbling, but said he would be back and opened and closed the from door.Burt was reading through Garfield when the doorbell rang. He figured that Finn forgot his keys again, he usually does that. "Kurt! I think Finn forgot his keys again! Get the door?"He heard Kurt's footsteps coming down the stairs quickly.
Kurt Fabray and Quinn Hummel 5 "Daddy! You forgot your lunch."Burt looked up from under the hood of the car he was working on to see Kurt and Quinn walking to him, Quinn waving a brown paper bag."Thanks, sweetie," said Burt, grabbing the bag and looking inside. "Wait - what even is this?""It's a veggie wrap," said Kurt proudly. "I made us all one for lunch today. There's also an apple and a bottle of V8 in there.""What am I going to eat for lunch? This is a snack, kid," grumbled Burt, setting the bag down on the table."I've told you that you have to start eating healthier," said Kurt with a frown. Burt continued to grumble back at him."Anyway," said Quinn, roll
