Ch.17*The Arrival of Jesse St. James and Samuel Evans*

Blaine's POV

Blaine made his way down to the throne room where Brittany said that everyone else would be waiting. He was anxious for some reason as well as wondering who this "old friend" could possibly be. The doors of the throne room were opened for him and he walked in to see that everyone else was already there. He saw King Burt standing off to the side with Viceroy William and Queen Carole looking over some documents, Quinn was talking to Finn who appeared to be paying no attention, Katherine and Noah were lost in deep discussion more than likely about the wedding, Rachel, Wes, and David were all gathered in a group talking heatedly they all sent him anxious glances when they saw him, Santana was over by his beautiful Kurt who was standing next to a very smug Sebastian. But what really caught his eye was who was standing in front of Sebastian, Kurt, and Santana. Seeing Jesse St. James wasn't too much of a surprise, however, it was still very unpleasant, no, what was something right out of his worst nightmares was Samuel Evans right next to Jesse.

"Blaine! So nice of you to join us!", Sebastian's snarky voice rang throughout the room drawing the attention of everyone, "You remember my cousin, Prince Jesse St. James of Carmel and my future commander of the knights of Cincinatti, Lord Samuel Evans."

"L-Lord Samuel Evans?", Blaine couldn't help but ask.

Sebastian smirked cruelly but Sam was the one who answered with a cruel smirk of his own, "Of course. I am a knight of Cincinatti after all. I have been given the title of Lord by his majesty King Vladimir."

Blaine nodded and continued to stare in shock. He couldn't think of anything to say in response but was luckily saved by Rachel.

"And just what are you and Prince Jesse doing here, Sam?"

"Well hello there Lady Rachel. So nice to see you again.", Jesse all but purred as he went to grasp her hand, however, she snatched it away before he could, "Sebastian invited us with King Burt's permission, of course.", he ended with a huff at the rejection.

Blaine sent a confused glance Santana's way as he had watched her tense at Jesse's behavior before visibly relaxing at the end. "What was that about?"

"Prince Sebastian tells us that Lord Samuel is an old friend of yours Prince Blaine.", Quinn spoke up.

Blaine had to bite his tongue to not scream out a huge "NO! He's the asshole who stole my virginity after making me believe that he cared about me in order to help out that bastard Sebastian!" he chose instead to say, "We knew each other at Dalton."

"Oh! You went to Dalton Academy Lord Samuel?", Carole cried out, obviously impressed.

Sam turned to her with a polite smile, "Yes I did Your Highness. I was one of the best at combat and leadership. It's really no wonder that Prince Sebastian wants me to command his knights after he becomes King, not to sound arrogant or anything."

"Nonsense my boy!", King Burt exclaimed, "You have every reason to be proud of yourself! Becoming commander of the knights is no small thing! You have impressed Prince Sebastian and I don't take that as a small feat at all! He is an excellent judge of character from what I've learned of him! Congratulations Lord Samuel!"

Blaine visibly blanched at the King's words. Did he really think that highly of Sebastian? Could he not see through the act to the evil within? And that Sam was the same way! Blaine sighed and nearly screamed when he saw Kurt looking at Sebastian adoringly, Sebastian looking back with a matching expression.

"Thank you Sire for your kind words.", Sebastian said with a bright smile and polite bow.

"I couldn't agree with you more, Your Majesty.", Sam replied with a bow and smile of his own.

Burt smiled,"Of course, of course! Now let's get you boys settled in for your stay."

Jesse and Sam smiled before following the King out of the room but not before Sam stopped in front of Blaine and said rather loudly, "It's so nice to see you again Blaine. I can't wait for us to catch up. It's been far too long."

With that he walked out of the room with Jesse, King Burt, Queen Carole, and Viceroy William. He waited until Quinn, Finn, Noah, Katherine and Kurt all walked out of the room before he rounded on Sebastian.

"What the hell Smythe?! Why is Sam here?!"

Sebastian barked out a laugh, "Why do you think Anderson? I figured you missed him and would want to see him again. You heard him. It's been far too long. Besides, don't you want Kurt to know everything about you? Honesty is the key to any good relationship.", he finished mockingly.

Blaine didn't register that he had gone into attack mode until he realized that he was being held back by Wes and David.

"I WILL KILL YOU SMYTHE! I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH KURT MEANS TO ME AND I WILL NOT LET YOU RUIN THIS FOR ME! YOU BASTARD!"

"Blaine relax! This isn't the way to deal with this!", Wes hissed as he and David continued to hold him back.

"Come on Blaine. Wes is right! All you can do is continue to focus on Kurt not Sebastian's schemes. Don't let him get to you!", David reasoned.

At the mention of Kurt, Blaine took a deep breath and attempted to calm down, "Fine. I will let this go. FOR NOW! But rest assured Sebastard that I will destroy you someday and if you do anything more to jeopardize my chances with Kurt I will make sure you regret it! I promise you that!"

He turned and began to storm out, but not before he heard Rachel scream, "Did you know about this?! How could you, Santana?!"

He turned to see Santana with her mouth hanging open as she tried to explain to Rachel's retreating form, "Rachel! Rachel wait! Let me explain! Rachel please!"

Rachel was suddenly walking past him with a sharp, "Let's go guys!", to him, Wes, and David.

He gladly did as he was told.

Sebastian's POV

"San? Are you alright?", he asked his obviously distraught friend.

Santana sighed, "Yes Seb. I'm fine."

Her voice was tight and laced with tension but he knew better then to bother her about it. She would talk when she was ready.

"So what do you think of my plan? Brilliant right?"

Santana looked over at him with a forced smile, "From what I've seen of it so far, yes. But what exactly is the plan?"

"I'm so glad you asked. I'm going to bring out those old feelings of Blaine's for Sam. I'm going to make sure Kurt knows about it and then he'll realize that Blaine is just a little whore who doesn't love him and could never be faithful to him. Blaine will end up breaking Kurt's heart and then I will be there with open arms to pick up the pieces. And Kurt will be mine. Flawless right? Of course, I'll need you to help me like you promised. I need you to talk with Kurt. Get him in the mindset of how horrible Blaine is. Make sure he knows that Blaine and Sam have a past that is more than friendship and never officially ended. Basically have his ear."

Santana smirked, "That is actually a really good plan Seb. Fine. I'll do it. What are you going to do?"

Sebastian smiled, "I'm inviting Kurt to go to Cincinatti with me for a few weeks. That way you can plant the seed of doubt about Blaine in his head before we go, Blaine will be "alone" with Sam for a few weeks, and then when we get back you can convince him of all the "moments" they've had while Kurt's been gone. And it also gives Kurt and I complete alone time and the chance to grow closer. I can also have him fall in love with his future home. It's perfect."

Santana lifted her eyebrow, "That's genius, Seb. When do you plan to ask?"

"Right now. So if you'll excuse me, San, I'm going to go ask him. Then we will announce it at dinner and from tomorrow until we go you can begin planting."

Santana nodded with an approving glint in her eye as he walked out of the room in search of Kurt. He found Kurt in the music room playing a few random notes on the piano.

"There you are, my dear."

"Oh Sebastian. It was so nice to see your cousin Prince Jesse again and to meet your friend Lord Samuel. He seems very kind.", Kurt smiled as he looked up from the instrument.

"Oh he is.", Sebastian replied, "Kurt there's something I've been meaning to ask you."

Kurt looked up at him with a look of genuine curiosity, "Yes, Sebastian?"

Sebastian sat beside him on the piano bench as he said, "I was wondering if you would like to see my home in Cincinatti for a few weeks. It could help you in making your decision if you actually saw the place and the people and got to know my family better. And I'll be honest I would love the chance to be alone with you and show you my home. I think it would help you get to know me better. So, what do you think? Will you come with me to Cincinatti, Kurt?"

Kurt gaped at him, "Wow. That's quite a question. But I can't argue with your logic. Besides, I have been wondering what your home was like and getting to know you better sounds lovely."

Sebastian grinned, "So? Is that a yes?"

Kurt giggled, "That's a yes."

Sebastian couldn't help the cheer that escaped as he celebrated, "I apologize, Kurt. I just..."

Kurt let out a tinkling laugh, "There is no need to apologize, Sebastian. I'm glad I'm able to make you happy. I am truly looking forward to this trip as well."

Sebastian beamed as he took Kurt's hand and gently kissed the knuckles there. He had never been more excited for a trip in his entire life.

So what did you all think? Please review and let me know.
