It had been about a month, now, since Karofsky and Sebastian officially met.

Sebastian took Karofsky out for coffee after their one night together, just like he promised, and they had gotten together almost every day they could after that.

They hadn't officially declared themselves boyfriends, yet, because Sebastian just wasn't used to that kind of commitment. He had never had a boyfriend before- only random hook-ups.

So they continued to go out and enjoy one another's presence... in secret, a silent agreement forming between the two that they would never acknowledge or question what they were to one another- they just went with it. Every now and then they would go back to Sebastian's dorm to have a little more "fun." Karofsky refused to have sex with Sebastian, however, until he knew exactly what they were, but that definitely didn't stop him from messing around with the other man.

They were out on one of their regular coffee "dates," a little more than a month after they met, when the issue of what they are was finally addressed.

"Shit," Sebastian swore under his breath. Karofsky looked up at him, a questioning look on his face.

"What?" Karofsky asked.

"Umm, nothing..." Sebastian tried to cover up his slip-up, but it was already too late. Karofsky was turning in his seat to look at the door, where Sebastian kept glancing up to, and saw that Kurt and Blaine had just entered the Lima Bean.

"I forgot that they come here for coffee. I wasn't thinking. Shit," Sebastian continued to mutter under his breath, half to himself and half in explanation to Karofsky.

"You don't have to say anything if you don't want to," Karofsky offered. "We can try to hang low, or we can leave if you want."

"I have a reputation to uphold, and this is going to fuck up everything!" Sebastian exclaimed, still whispering fiercely across the table to Karofsky, ignoring what the other man had just suggested to him.

Karofsky didn't reply, but simply looked down into his coffee, a defeated and hurt expression on his face.

"Shit, David, I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking. You're right, we don't have to say anything. Maybe they won't even see us. I just... I'm not used to being seen with another guy over coffee, unless it's to try to get into his pants," Sebastian tried to explain, upon seeing the hurt expression on Karofsky's face.

"Yeah, well I'm not to stoked to see Blaine, either. I mean, I did attack him... twice. And kissed his boyfriend. It's not that easy for me, either. Plus, they would have a lot of questions for us that we don't exactly have answers to because we never talk about it," Karofsky huffed, annoyance clear in his voice.

"Hey, it's not like you want to talk about it, either. You're not even out yet, so don't give me that bullshit. I haven't messed around with anyone else since I met you. If that's not good enough for you, well then sorry," Sebastian drawled out the last word to show that he didn't really mean the apology.

Karofsky sighed, looking down into his coffee again. How had their pleasant afternoon at the Lima Bean turned into this? He should have known things would get complicated eventually. Everything had been much too fun for the last month considering the two men involved in this... whatever it was. A man who wasn't out of the closet, and a man who was so far out of the closet that he couldn't keep his dick in his pants and had a player reputation that he was quite proud of and worked hard to maintain- it's a wonder they had never fought before.

"Shit, I think they saw us," Sebastian suddenly exclaimed, also looking down into his coffee, wishing he could just disappear.

Karofsky looked over to where he had last seen the happy couple, and, sure enough, Blaine was glancing at him curiously, then leaned over to whisper something into Kurt's ear, who then also looked over at the table, confusion and a slight smile gracing his face.

The pair grabbed their coffees and made their way over to Sebastian and Karofsky.

"They're coming over. Just, act cool..." Karofsky suggested to Sebastian, who was trying to put his best game face on. Karofsky hadn't seen that smirk since the night they met. He thought Sebastian had made some progress, so he hated to see him returning to his old ways.

"Look who we have here. If it isn't Blaine Anderson," Sebastian leered over Blaine's body. Kurt, who had previously been smiling at the pair, thinking they were on a date, suddenly began sneering at the tall man.

"Karofsky. Sebastian," Kurt all but growled, wrapping his arm around Blaine's waist and pulling him closer to him. Blaine willingly complied, a goofy smile on his face, completely oblivious to his boyfriend's jealousy. Karofsky thought it was hilarious, but he was too freaked out over everything that was currently happening to laugh about it.

"Kurt. Blaine," Karofsky nodded.

"What brings you two gentlemen here? I didn't know you knew each other," Blaine asked.

"We're..."

"Ummm..."

"He..."

"We..."

Kurt and Blaine glanced back and forth between the pair, who were currently talking over each other.

"Are you two together?" Kurt asked, bluntly.

"No!" Sebastian shouted, while Karofsky looked down, embarrassed at the rejection, and refused to comment.

"Really?" Blaine asked, doubtful of Sebastian's panic exclamation.

"I... he..." Karofsky started, then looked back down when he noticed Sebastian's glare.

"Blaine, you know better than anyone that I don't do dates," Sebastian smirked, and added a wink toward the shorter man for good measure.

"Sebastian, just cut the crap!" Karofsky suddenly shouted, pushing out of his seat and storming for the door.

Sebastian, Kurt, and Blaine just stared at the door in shock for a few seconds, but Kurt was finally the first to react.

"Umm... we'll just go and let you two talk. But, whatever it is... or, was... going on between you two, I hope it works out. Karofsky's a good guy, Sebastian. Don't fuck this up," Kurt said, grabbing Blaine's hand and dragging him away, hoping that Karofsky and Sebastian would work things out. It would get Sebastian away from his boyfriend, and it would help Karofsky come to terms with himself. But Karofsky deserved more than just a one time fling, so maybe he would be able to help Sebastian see the wrong in his ways, as well.

"Come on, I want a window seat," Blaine smiled at his boyfriend, and dragged him over to their regular table, as they watched Sebastian through the window as he rushed out of the coffee shop and grab Karofsky by the arm, turning the other man around to face him before he got to his car.

"David! David, wait! Please," Sebastian begged.

"Why? Why should I? You made it pretty obvious in there that I don't mean anything to you. I'm just a quick fuck. You don't date. You don't even want to be seen with me. I thought we liked each other enough to overcome that. I was finally starting to come to terms with myself and was proud to be seen with you, but obviously, you aren't feeling the same way," Karofsky exclaimed, completely exasperated.

"Wait... what?" Sebastian questioned. "Did you just say that you want to be seen with me? You're... you're going to come out?"

"I... I was thinking about it... yeah..." Karofsky shrugged, rubbing the back of his neck, his discomfort obvious.

"I... wow... I didn't know. Why didn't you say anything?" Sebastian asked, moving in closer to Karofsky.

"Because we just had this understanding that we wouldn't talk about... us. And besides, you said it yourself... you don't date."

Sebastian mumbled a response under his breath that Karofsky couldn't hear. He moved in a bit closer to the taller man and asked, "what was that, again?"

Sebastian took a deep breath, then looked right into Karofsky's eyes before declaring, "I said, I would like to date you..."

Karofsky froze. "You... what?"

"Please don't make me say it again," Sebastian begged. "I'm not used to saying shit like that."

Karofsky laughed, then reached out to pull Sebastian into a hug.

"I would love to date you. I would love for you to be my boyfriend. I love spending time together, and I love our coffee dates, and I love that you are willing to give up your misguided boy toy ways for me, and I just love who I am with you and how brave you make me feel," Karofsky whispered into Sebastian's neck, then placed a quick kiss there when he finished his speech.

Sebastian reached up to return the hug, pulling Karofsky in tight, resting his head on top of the shorter man's.

"Thank you. Just... thank you for being patient with me. I'm sorry. I've been an idiot. Just because I've never done this before doesn't mean I can't, though. So... yeah, let's give this a try, because I love spending time with you, too. I've never felt this way about someone before, and it scares the shit out of me... but I'm willing to do it, for you."

"They're cute. I'm glad they have each other. Everyone's got to have someone, after all," Kurt commented, as he watched the two men walk through the parking lot toward their car, hand in hand, the blush on Sebastian's face visible even through the coffee shop window.

A/N: I finally gave in and wrote a second chapter! I was kind of curious how they would officially end up together, as well, because I knew the pair of them wouldn't just get together right on the spot- they had their own shit to work through, first. So yay! This will be the last chapter for this story, though.

Now I just need this to happen in canon. -sigh-
