Who Says You Can't Go Home – Bon Jovi
"At this time we ask that you return your seats to their upright positions and lock your tray tables. We are beginning our descent into Columbus, and will arrive in approximatly 10 minutes" The pilot's voice came over the loudspeakers and Kurt turned to look at his husband with a look that bordered on fear.
"Baby, what's wrong?" Blaine asked, gently running his thumb over Kurts jaw. "I haven't seen you look this terrified since your last show at fashion week."
"It's just been so long Blaine. I mean when was the last time we really saw the guys from Glee Club? It has been at least 5 years since we saw them as a group at our 10th reusnion, and I know that we saw Mercedes when she came up to the city two years ago, but what if they hate us for losing touch. I don't know if I can do this." Kurt was running his fingers nervously through his hair and starting to ramble.
Blaine leaned in, gently placing his hands on either side of Kurts face and drawing him in for a deep kiss. "Sweetie, come on, it's just New Directions. We all have had our own lives and families, but do you really think that these guys won't still love you? My fantastically sexy, fashion forward designer, who has been at every major fashion event in Europe and the States is seriously getting stage fright over Puckerman and Brittney? Look at me Baby, I got you"
"Thank you for reminding me of why I love you. It is a good thing that one of us is at least a little grounded, you keep me from losing it sometimes."
The seatbelt sign went out and Blaine reached up to pull their carry on bag down from the luggage rack. He lead the way up the aisle with Kurt following close behind. Once they cleared the plane, Kurt strolled up beside him and put his arm gently around his waist and pulled him close. After 17 years together they just fit perfectly.
Blaine pulled the car into the lot at the Hilton and shut the engine off. Looking over he could see that Kurt was looking positively green, which was not his best color. He leaned in close and whispered in Kurt's ear "You think they remembered the Slushie machine" with a giggle. "You know I remember the first slushie facial we shared. Everyone had told me how humiliating it was, but did I ever tell you that I was proud to get slushied with you? Just being able to stand there and hold my head high with ice cold red slushie running down my face with your arm still around me. I never knew where I fit Kurt, until I met you. Coming to school with you that last year, being in Glee, being part of that family … that was where I fit. It is where I have always fit. I love you more than you know"
Kurt smiled for the first time since they had been on the plane. "I love you too, more than I ever believed it was possible to love. You are my life Blaine, you have been since "Teenage Dream. If we are going to do this, let's do it before I chicken out"
As they walked into the ballroom with his arm tucked through Blaine's Kurt looked up and met eyes with Puck first. At the huge smile that spread across the other man's face, the shouts of "Klaine's here" and the rush of bodies headed their way Kurt's only thought was … This is home.
