The foursome drove down the long highways, letting the wind whip their hair back. Mostly Blaine's hair, his curls getting twisted up in the wind. Kurt laughed, running a pale hand through Blaine's unruly hair. "You look like a half deranged woodland creature from a fantasy book." He grinned. Blaine laughed along, before smirking a bit, flirting without realizing he was doing it. "If I'm a half deranged woodland creature, what does that make you, Kurt?" Kurt blushed, and David piped in.
"Whatever half deranged woodland creatures kiss!" He and Wes both cracked up at this statement, and Blaine found himself blushing more than he thought it was humanly possible. Kurt sneakily took Blaine's camera from his hands, before pressing record.
"Hi there everyone! It's Kurt Hummel here. Normally Blaine is behind the camera, but as you can tell, he's too busy blushing to really video tape. So, I've decided to ask Blaine a few questions while we drive down this never ending road." Blaine attempted to snatch his camera back, but Kurt raised it over his head, and Blaine sighed, before motioning him to bring the camera down so that it didn't get snatched up by the wind. Kurt grinned.
"So, Blaine, tell me… why are you friends with Wes and David?" Kurt asked, in a very serious news anchor type voice. Blaine smiled back, "We were paired up for Warblers one day to think of some songs… and we just stuck together."
Kurt smiled a bit at the story, before putting back on a serious face. "Why are you not using gel this summer? Your hair is normally gelled back."
"It's gelled to the point where no one has gelled before, usually!" Wes commented, before sending himself into a fit of un-Weslike giggles. David cracked up, looking back. Wes smacked his head, "Eyes on the road, Mister." David grumbled before turning his head back to the road.
Kurt rolled his eyes, waiting for Blaine to answer the question. Blaine shrugged, "It's too much of a hassle in the summer. Plus, it's normally not this long. So, it looks better curled than gelled if it's not this long." Kurt nodded, satisfied with his answer. With a smirk, Kurt went a bit more personal.
"If you could kiss anyone in this car, who would it be? I have on good authority you, Blaine Anderson, might have a crush on someone." Blaine froze up, shifting his gaze towards Wes, who pointed very subtly at David, who was whistling to the radio with his eyes on the road.
Mumbling, Blaine turned into a dark shade of pink, "I don't like anyone in this car. But I do know who I want to strangle…" Kurt laughed, before turning the camera off.
"That went well, don't you think?" Kurt asked Blaine. Blaine nodded, still a bright shade of pink. Kurt bumped into his shoulder, purposefully, and Blaine grinned, his blush dulling slightly.
"You'd be a really good news anchor. You have the voice down and everything." Blaine poked Kurt. Kurt rolled his eyes, but grinned anyways.
The foursome continued to drive through the night.
Then, tragedy struck.
"Fuck damn shit." David cursed. Wes rolled his eyes, "Real eloquent. Could you repeat that again? I think we missed it."
"Fuck damn shit."
"What does that even mean, David?" Wes asked, and David flipped him off.
"It means," Blaine gave Wes a look, "Fuck we're stuck. Damn we have no gas. And this is a piece of shit."
David pointed to Blaine, nodding enthusiastically. "You are a fucking mind reader, Blaine." David said. Blaine took a small bow, before giving Wes and David a look.
"You two go find a gas station."
"WHAT?" Both boys exclaimed at the same time. Blaine gave them each a look, and the two nodded, before grabbing their wallets and going to find a local who knew where the closest gas station was. Kurt took Blaine's hand into his. Blaine could feel his heart beating, faster than it had ever gone before.
"Can we cross something off my own personal bucket list?" Kurt asked. Blaine nodded, and Kurt let go of his hand, off to rummage through the trunk. He came out with a large blanket, one people would lay down for picnics or on lazy summer afternoons and look up at the clouds, preferably with a boyfriend of some sort.
Kurt laid down the blanket on the side of the road, behind the car, in the small area of grass. Kurt laid down, and Blaine came over, laying down with him. Their hands sort of found one another, clasping tightly together, as if the other were afraid that the other person would let go.
"My mama use to stargaze with me. She'd point out all the stars. When she got really sick, I remember her telling me, 'Whenever you miss me, baby, just look up at the stars, and that's where I'll be. Up with all the angels.'" Kurt snuggled close to Blaine, feeling the stinging sensation of tears pricking into his eyes. "She told me I was going to be different from other boys, and that it was okay. She always knew. So, Blaine, I wanted to you to meet my mama. She's up there somewhere."
Blaine could feel his throat tighten up a bit, "Hello, Mrs. Hummel. It's nice to meet you. You have a wonderful, strong, caring son." Blaine tightened his grip on Kurt's hand, squeezing gently. Kurt squeezed back, and the two looked up at the stars.
After a few minutes of comfortable silence, Kurt began pointing out all the constellations he could find. Blaine added a few of his own, but Kurt mostly pointed them out. Blaine felt his heart swell with love as Kurt talked animatedly about all the stars in the sky. They laid there for hours, just talking about stars, and dreams, and little things.
They both fell asleep without realizing it, their hands still intertwined. When David and Wes came back, the two boys smiled, not really wanting to wake them up. They had come with a tow truck. David went over to gently wake up the two boys.
"Blaine… Kurt… We gotta get up." He poked the two till they both awoke, rubbing their tired eyes. Wes grinned at the sight.
"We're going to the gas station. You all can sleep in the car." Blaine groaned, and Kurt grinned, sleepily.
"Don't worry. Once we get to Disney, you all can sleep all you want. I don't think you will want to though."
Hi! My goodness, it's been a while since I've updated this story. I thought I'd be free-er this summer, so I thought YAY! I can write!
That was not the case. At all. I've had a busy summer. But, today, I told myself I was gonna write something whether I wanted to (which I really did want to) or not. So... tada!
This thing on Kurt's personal bucket list is actually on one of my friends, so thank you very much for this one. She knows who she is.
Anyways, I might write a few more up today, and then just post them week by week. Sound good? I think it's a good plan.
Next up is DISNEYWORLD YAY!
Thank you so much for reading this story. Keep the reviews, alerts coming. It brightens my day when I see that email. I massively flail. A lot.
