Chapter 17

The Growth

The boy woke up with a jerk. His heart was beating rapidly and his breathing extremely short. These dreams have been going on for a while, and he did not think much of it, branding them as nightmares and not really paying attention to them much, granted he didn't really remember much of the events that happened in said dreams. This one though, had been very vivid and there was absolutely no way the image of Kurt in his arms would be forgotten. The weird thing though was that he didn't even know Jeff had a symbol before yesterday, and immediately after figuring it out, he had this dream.

Blaine's head hurt again, probably from over-thinking again. He glanced to his left, looking for the digital clock placed on top of his bedside table, but when he didn't see any sign of luminescent numbers, he finally figured out where he was. The infirmary.

On the analog clock that hung on the wall, he saw that it was about 3:30 in the afternoon. Blaine stumbled around a bit, feeling the need to go to the bathroom, slightly rubbing his head while he walked.

"So what's up with you and Blainers?" Jeff asked as they left the science building. Classes went on forever, and Kurt couldn't wait to get out of class, just so he could see Blaine again. The incident that morning was incredibly close, lucky for them they were able to make it out 'just in time'.

"What do you mean?" Kurt just kept looking forward, not really paying attention to Jeff. When Jeff noticed this, he painfully slapped the back of Kurt's head. "Hey!"

"I meeeaaan, I totally see all the looks you give each other... And you haven't even been here that long. What is it? Like three days and I can totally see through your act."

"Am I really that obvious?"

Jeff raised an eyebrow, asking if Kurt really said that, because he was oh so obvious... and so was Blaine.

"Oh my God Kurt! Are you okay?" Blaine charged towards Kurt as the boy came in the room, Jeff, Wes and David in tow.

"Of course I am! Why wouldn't I be?" Blaine hesitated for a moment, looking around the room and seeing the stifled laughter from the three boys behind them. "And besides, I'm not the one who was in the hospital bed not a few seconds ago."

"I-I just." Kurt could see it in Blaine's eyes, but something was holding the reason back, then it hit him.

"Hey, could you guys leave us alone for a minute?"

"Sure!" David yelled out, practically pulling Jeff out the room.

"Oh come on! I wanna see all the action!" Jeff screamed out as the door came to a close.

Blaine looked into Kurt's blue-green eyes, tilting his head a little and pouting in worry. Kurt led the boy to bed, sitting down on the edge. "So, tell me what's bothering you."

It was quiet for a while, but Kurt waited. He could see that this was extremely troubling for Blaine. The symptoms were all there: the picking of the fingernails, the avoiding of eye contact and the stuttering... an awful lot of stuttering.

Kurt glanced at the clock, wondering how long they had been sitting on the bed. The boys outside were already gone, their silhouettes not present behind the curtains anymore. Apparently, they had been sitting there for a good amount of time, thirty five minutes.

Kurt didn't know what to do so he did what Blaine did a couple of nights ago. Kurt reached for Blaine's hand. The touch felt different. It wasn't the usual warmth that he felt. The boy's hand shook as Kurt clutched it with his own. He heard Blaine's relieved sigh and thought that this was thinking of it much, Kurt lay his head on Blaine's shoulder, who replied by laying his own on Kurt's.

The quiet beating of Blaine's heart was like a brand new melody for Kurt. He could listen to it all day, but only if Blaine allowed him to.

"I'm so sorry." Blaine's voice croaked after almost an hour of not talking.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm so sorry I had to get sick. I know you have tons of work to do, and I'm only just a bother."

"Oh those? Don't worry about it. I finished all of them already, I'm quite surprised myself too."

They separated their heads, but their eyes kept locked on each others. "How? It's like literally a lot considering..."

"Believe me, it was a lot." Kurt's eyebrow raised. "But having a trained mind certainly has its advantages."

"Oh my G- You cheater!" Blaine playfully slapped Kurt's thigh, causing him to laugh and slap Blaine's lap as well.

"Hey, it's not cheating when you use your brain."

"Shut up... You know what I'm talking about!" Blaine crossed his arms and then went off whining like a little kid who didn't get what he wanted at the toy store. "Here you are using your amazing mind ability when I can't even use mine to warm myself up for the cold without getting massive headaches! It's unfair..."

Kurt laughed out loud at Blaine's reaction. He was seriously acting like a three year old over this? Wow! "It's not my fault someone decided to use it everyday."

"I know..." Blaine pouted, laying down on the bed and staring at the ceiling. Kurt lay down beside him, trying not to get too close to the boy.

Blaine wanted to tell Kurt about the dream he had, but at the same time he didn't want to. Dalton was supposed to be a turning point in the boy's life, the place he went to keep safe from his tormentors. Blaine didn't want to ruin that, not during the first week Kurt was present, so as Blaine involuntary ruffled Kurt's hair he decided... He would tell Kurt, but not right now... Soon.

"You know I never let anyone touch my hair."

"Oh..." Blaine retracted his hand. "I'm sorry."

"No, it's fine... Keep it there. I like it"

"We seriously need to do something about those two." David leaned in from the outside window, taking in the full view of Blaine and Kurt lying down on the bed. Right now Kurt's head was placed on Blaine's chest, both watching some ridiculous show on Logo.

"I dunno, I think they're doing pretty well for themselves." Wes looked in as well, his eyes barely reaching the threshold of the window. He caught a glimpse of what was happening, but his height wasn't really flattering at the moment. God! If only he was two inches taller.

"GUYS! Could you hurry it up? My back is hurting me!" Jeff screamed.

"Shut up and be a good lump." David yelled out, continuing his conversation with Wes.

Jeff seriously regretted sharing his plan with Wes and David. He alone was kind of devious enough to come up with a plan! Then again his plans always ended up with either A: an injury, B: chaos, C: someone getting angry or D: All of the above.

Jeff sighed, bowing his head down in defeat. This was gonna be a long night.

"No! We still need to keep him here for observation purposes. His sickness went away as fast as it came. That alone is reason enough to-"

"Please? Pleeaaase can you let him go? I promise that if he gets sick again, we'll bring him back." Kurt's eyes fluttered and Blaine couldn't help but think of the boy in front of him as cute. The boy's eyes immediately reminded him of the Puss in Boots from Shrek. Blaine smiled at the comaprison and hept the small laughter he gave off to himself.

As Kurt continued to pester the nurse, he couldn't help but think that Kurt got a little help somewhere else. Kurt talked and talked and he could see the nurse spacing out even more after each word. And Blaine couldn't be even more correct in his life, because right as Kurt finished his last sentence, the nurse agreed to let him go. With a loud cheer, Kurt left the room, leaving Blaine to get ready for his departure.

"So are you read-AH!" Kurt opened the door, not really knocking as he entered, and the sight of Blaine's ass completely took him by surprise... Not that his scream totally gave it away.

"OH MY GOD KURT I'M STILL DRESSING!" Kurt immediately closed the door. Oh my God was that?... Kurt felt his face get red and his breathing become laboured... Oh dear God... He just saw...Wow... Kurt just stood by the wall, breathing extremely heavy trying to think of other things to think about, but failed... He couldn't help but resurface the image in his mind. His blushing got even worse when David, Wes and Jeff's laughter got even louder! How could this day get even more embarrassing?

And as if God wanted his life to be even more difficult, the door opened to a well dressed Blaine. Said boy looked around for a while before leaving the premises and out the infirmary.

Kurt just stood there dumbfounded as the trio followed Blaine out. He burrowed his face in his hands before letting out a big groan of embarrassment. Who wouldn't after destroying someone's privacy like that? Granted it was a sight that Kurt always wanted to see. Dd that make Kurt a pervert? Maybe... but it wasn't like he went sneaking around Blaine's room and peeked in through a hole in the wall. Yes... Kurt convinced himself. He wasn't a pervert. It was just pure accident! Just an accident, just an accident. He kept repeating to himself. "Just an accident."

"Hey, are you coming or what?"

Kurt looked up to see Blaine standing there in all his clothed glory. "S-sure." He managed to breathe out, standing up and trailing closely next to him.

"I'm sorry..." Kurt's head was still dangling by his neck as they walked back to the dorms. "For not knocking."

Blaine gave out a small laugh. "It's fine Kurt. I don't care really."

The rest of the walk was silent. and it was the worst silence ever, because it was an awkward one. At least to Kurt it was. He just saw Blaine's bubble butt for God's sake! How could he even recover from something like that?

"I have no idea, have you seen anybody else's butt before?"

Oh dear God did he just say that out loud?

"I don't think so... your mouth's not moving."

What? Blaine could hear Kurt's thoughts? Oh dear God!

"Apparently I can." Blaine was being fine with this? How? Oh dear, that means Blaine can hear this... and this... and this...OH GOD PLEASE STOP THINKING!

"I can hear you guys too ya know!" Jeff sounded from afar, breaking his conversation with Wes and David just to butt in.

"You know Kurt, you're not being very fair." They opened the main dormitory entrance and went inside, the warm feeling of the heating enveloped their bodies, sighing in relief as they took refuge in the warmth.

"What? You and Jeff are here hearing my every thought, how is that fair?"

"I dunno, but it seems like your abilities are growing faster while mine is just annoying me."

"I don't even have any idea how this is happening..." Kurt stopped walking altogether, causing Blaine to pause at the boy who held himself in his arms, head now dangled at the floor with faint sobs sounding out. "I just want all this to go away!"

Blaine immediately held Kurt into his arms, not willing to let go as he led the boy to his dorm room. "So what do you say we hang out for a bit. Forget about all these and just go around and have fun?"

"I'd really rather just lie down."

"Oh come on! It's Saturday! What you say we head to the shopping district in the outskirts of Westerville?"

Kurt frowned even more as Blaine bounced on his bed, making Kurt bounce as well.

"They have amazing deals!" Blaine singsonged, trying to convince Kurt."

"Okay then Kurt Hummel, you drive a hard bargain." Blaine thought about it for a while. If sales wouldn't get Kurt to go out shopping, what could. He looked around his messy room, God his roommate really let this place go! Two days of Blaine not being here and half the room was already a pig sty!

His eyes wandered around the room some more. That was when he saw his credit card. A light bulb flashed in his mind, then he fitted his chin on Kurt's slumped shoulder.

"Okay then, how about I pay for an $500 shopping spree? Would that make you feel better?"

Kurt couldn't help but flinch at the offer. Of course that would make him feel better! But... "Ha-ha!" the laugh sounded accusatory. "Yes!"

"Yeah, okay you got me... But I don't want you spending all that money on me..."

"Nonsense! I don't even know what to do with all the money my parents send me every month. I figure, I'll let you have a small chunk of it. Come on, let's go to your car and head over for breakfast. I'm hungry."

And with that, they left the dorm room, leaving the trio behind them disappointed. They really hoped that they would have to connive a way to get the two together, but it seemed like their assistance wasn't needed after all.

Reviews are very much appreciated, thank you!
