Kurt took Blaine to many places. They went down to NYADA and snuck a peek at Rachel's dance class. They went over to Kurt's work and Blaine met Isabelle, who Blaine thought was very nice and just a bit crazy. They went to the theater where Kurt and Rachel had sung 'For Good' two years before. They went to a small cafe that served cheesecake that was good but not as good as Breadstix.

The whole time Blaine was internally freaking out. He couldn't even enjoy the sights like he should be because he was too busy looking for the right moment to confess. Kurt seemed so happy and excited that Blaine simply didn't have the heart to do it.

But each minute that went by was a wasted minute, in Blaine's opinion. Twice came moments that he though were the moments when he'd finally tell him. And twice he let those moments go.


"Blaine, I really like having you here" Kurt said as they walked back to Kurt and Rachel's residence. It was pretty late in the afternoon.

"I like being here. I like being here with you" Blaine smiled at Kurt.

"Are you sure you have to go tomorrow?" Kurt asked.

Blaine nodded. "I can't miss more school than I already am or it'll be a pain to catch up."

Kurt laughed. "Oh, I know. You miss a few days of grade twelve and you're screwed."

"But that doesn't mean I don't wish I could stay."

"One more year. Less than that, actually" Kurt said.

"Yee-haw" Blaine laughed.

"And we're back" Kurt said. He unlocked the door and pulled it open.

"Such a cool door" Blaine said.

"I know!" Kurt said.

"Kurt?" Rachel called from her room area. She poked her head out. "Oh, hey there you two. Don't you both look happy! Did you enjoy your day?"

Rachel's chipper attitude was a bit too happy. It was obviously a huge hint to Blaine and he responded by avoiding eye contact. Kurt was totally oblivious.

"Fun. We did a fun New York tour. How was class?" Kurt asked, hanging up his coat.

"Obnoxious. Oh, sorry, I thought you asked 'how was that witch named Cassandra July?'" Rachel laughed at her own joke.

Kurt snickered.

"Anyways, don't mind me. I'll be out of your hair soon" Rachel said. "Then you two will be free to do whatever like talk or dance or...you know" Rachel winked.

Kurt rolled his eyes. "Where are you going? Please don't tell me you have a date after breaking up with Finn less than twenty four hours ago."

"No, me and a few girls from dance class are going to this other girl's house for a movie night" Rachel said. "I'll call before I come home so you have time to put your clothes back on."

"Rachel!" Kurt gasped.

Rachel grinned and hugged Kurt. "You know I love you." Then she hugged Blaine. Like Finn, she whispered to him. "Am I a good actor or what?"

Blaine didn't like that. Her whole happy attitude was just a charade.

Rachel grabbed her purse and left.

"What did she say to you?" Kurt asked.

Blaine paused. And lied. "Something about getting dirty."

Kurt rolled his eyes. "She's crazy. But I'm surprised she's doing okay considering her Finn situation thingy last night. Which I still don't know the details about."

"Don't ask me because I know probably less than you" Blaine laughed.

"I think she's hurting" Kurt said. "She's too chipper to be okay."

Blaine shrugged. "Maybe."

Kurt sat down on the couch. "What a day. Walking is hard on the feet."

"Maybe because you dress for style not comfort" Blaine pointed out with a smirk.

Kurt couldn't argue with that.

Blaine sat down on the couch next to Kurt.

Now. Now was the time. He couldn't live with the guilt for one more minute. The day was already ruined because he had to wear a fake smile for most of the time. So now he had to do it. He had to just man up and do it.

"You're quiet" Kurt noticed.

Blaine glanced up and did what he was scared to do: look into Kurt's eyes. Luckily, there weren't teary yet. They just showed concern.

"Kurt... I need to tell you something" Blaine said slowly. He felt tears in his eyes.

Kurt stared at him, waiting to hear.

"Last night when you lost your memory and asked what had happened, I lied to you" Blaine began. "The reason you went for a walk was because you were mad at me and needed time to think."

Kurt looked confused. "Why?"

Blaine felt a tear roll down his cheek. "After we went to Callbacks, we went for a walk in a park and I told you that...I cheated on you. And I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry. I told you that too. I hate myself. Then you lost your memory and I felt like I got a second chance. Today is what it should be like and I loved being here with you. But the guilt was killing me and I hate keeping it from you. I made a mistake and I'm sorry and I love you, please understand that."

Blaine had been staring down as the dreaded words tumbled out of his mouth. When he was done, he glanced up at Kurt. Again, he made the mistake of looking into his eyes. Kurt's blue eyes were teary and sad but were different than he expected. They weren't as mad or angry as they had been the first time. He didn't look heartbroken. He just looked sad. Either way, Blaine cried harder at the sight.

Kurt was quiet, silently crying too.

"Kurt" Blaine said. "Say something. Please."

He waited for Kurt to get mad at him. He waited for him to ask if it was Sebastian. He waited for the whole rant.

But it never came.

Finally, Kurt spoke. It was quiet, but it echoed in Blaine's ears.

"I know."

Blaine looked at him. What? He knew? Did Finn or Rachel tell him? Did he get his memory back?

Kurt went on. "I know you did. B-because I lied to you. I faked it all. I never really lost my memory. I faked it."

Blaine's eyes widened. "What?"

"Quiet. Just listen to me" Kurt said boldly.

Blaine shut up.

"Not all of it was a fake. I actually did trip and hit my head. And for a few minutes, I did have trouble remembering things. But it all came back quickly. Either way, I decided to go get it checked out so I got a cab to the hospital. There was no one who took me. The doctor did a few little tests and said I was fine. The doctor you talked to wasn't the doctor. It was the son of the doctor. He was dropping off some papers for his father and we casually got to talking and he eventually agreed to help me and tell you that I had lost my memory. Finn and Rachel were both in on it too. I had texted them when you all were in the waiting room and they agreed to play along. What I'm saying here is that I remember everything from last night."

Blaine was floored. This was crazy. "Woah."

"Blaine. Do you understand why I did all that?" Kurt asked in a serious tone.

Blaine thought about it but actually had no immediate answer. It was such an elaborate plan. It was all so weird. He almost didn't believe it.

"I did it because I love you. I love you, Blaine. And you mean something to me. Last night was maybe the worst night of my life. You hurt me. I hope you know that. You hurt me a lot. But we've been through to much for me to let it go when you make one really awful mistake. I hope you feel bad because what you did was awful. You cheated, Blaine. You basically said that I mean nothing. But I know you. I know the real Blaine. And I know that the Blaine Anderson I know and love so very much wouldn't do that. I know that he doesn't the seriousness of our relationship lightly. I saw that Blaine Anderson today when we were out. I know he's in you. And that's why I did this all. Because I know that you're worth saving. You're worth another chance. So I gave you one. I basically told myself that if you felt so bad about what you did and would admit it to me again before you left New York, then this could work. It meant you loved me enough to be honest not once, but twice. But if you had gone to lengths to cover up your mistake and tried to make me think that it never happened, then it was over. The Blaine Anderson I love would be gone. I didn't want it to go that way at all. But I had faith in you. And you did it. You told me the truth again. Thank you."

Blaine stared at Kurt. "What's this mean then?"

Kurt sighed. "It means that I think we'll be okay. Provided you still want this...us...to work. I want you to be the one I grow old with. I want you to be the one who shares all my life milestones with me. I really want that. But...if you don't, tell me now. Tell me what you want because there's no point to this if you think cheating is okay. Even if it was 'just a hookup'. I know I'm not a very good boyfriend everyday. There are days when you probably hate me. And those are the days that I cry myself to sleep and want you to be there with me more than anything. But if you think for one second that I don't love you and that I don't miss you everyday, you're wrong."

Blaine slid closer to Kurt on the couch and took his hands in his own.

"I do want to be with you. I do more than anything. I love you and I totally regret what I did. I swear to you that you are good enough and you are the one for me" Blaine said.

Tears were rolling down both their faces and they stared into each other's eyes the whole time. Kurt was looking out for a falter. He wanted to see it anything would prove Blaine wrong and he couldn't find a thing. Blaine was looking for a hope. Kurt's eyes basically told his emotion and feelings. Luckily, his blue eyes showed no anger. Only sadness and love.

Kurt pulled Blaine forward and hugged him tightly. Blaine wrapped his arms around Kurt. This hug was one that last night, he thought would never come.

"You have to swear to me Blaine that this will never happen again" Kurt said to him.

"I swear" Blaine vowed.

They broke the hug and Blaine found that he had stopped crying too.

"I hope you know how much I hated myself afterwards" Blaine said after a moment.

Kurt tilted his head. "Don't beat yourself up too bad, alright? I forgive you."

"I'll never forgive myself."

"You made a mistake."

"A mistake that hurt you. And that hurt me the most. Seeing your eyes after I told you was like taking your heart and physically ripping it in half."

Kurt gave a light chuckle. "Felt like that too."

"I'm sorry" Blaine said sadly. He honestly and truly was.

Blaine and Kurt were silent for a moment. They didn't even make eye contact. Then Kurt pulled Blaine towards him so Blaine was lying on his chest. Kurt wrapped his arms around Blaine and they held hands.

"Can I ask you something?" Kurt asked finally. When Blaine didn't object, he went on. "Why?"

"Why did I do it?" Blaine asked.

"Yeah."

Blaine sighed. He had a few options here. He could lie and avoid admitting the real problem, or he could tell the truth. He picked the second option.

"I was upset. I was upset at you. I was upset at the fact that I was alone in Lima" Blaine said.

"Alone?"

"You've been so busy that you never had time for me. And when we did talk, it was like I was watching the Kurt Hummel Show. All you did was talk about Isabelle and your job and Rachel and New York. And I guess I felt like that because I was the one who sent you there that I just can't ask you to put it on hold to talk to me. And what really drew the line for me I guess was that day when you we talked but you were at work managing Isabelle's phone. You hung up before I could say 'I love you'. And it was then that I kinda realized how alone I've been feeling and how I've been second in your life. I guess, at the time, it seemed like a great idea to be first in someone else's."

Kurt was quiet for a moment. Then he let go of Blaine. Blaine sat up a bit and turned to face Kurt, who put his hands on either side of his face so he could talk directly to Blaine.

"Blaine, listen to me. I am so, so, so, so, sorry. I'm sorry for everything. I didn't even realized that I was ignoring you. I didn't even realized that you were feeling alone. I guess I just got caught up in the magic of New York that... I forgot about you. I never meant to, I swear. But please, next time, tell me. I won't be mad. I just need to know that I'm doing it. We work because we have total honesty. Like when we were at Dalton and I told you that you're hogging all the solos and we ended up doing a duet that rocked! Honesty is the cement to a relationship and it almost scares me that you didn't want to tell me."

"Because you were so happy when we talked. I didn't want to stop that."

"Yeah but you weren't."

Blaine bit his lip and nodded slowly.

"I'm sorry, though."

"As am I" Blaine said.

Kurt sighed. "Anything else we need to talk about? Let's just get it out now."

"I love you" Blaine said, a small smile appearing.

Kurt smiled and kissed Blaine. That kiss was full of passion and emotion and love.

But it was more too. It was a promise and a reminder that they can over come it all.

"We're okay, yes?" Blaine asked. He needed to know.

"We are" Kurt confirmed. "We are indeed. So no more cheating, right?"

"Never ever ever" Blaine said solemnly. "No more creating elaborate plans to fool me, right?"

Kurt laughed and his laugh was like music to Blaine's ears. "Okay."


A/N

So Kurt never lost his memory...Who saw that one coming? Anyone? Big highfive if you did. :D

Anyways, so that's the end. I hope you enjoyed this little story. It was fun and sad to write. I guess the happy ending is my inner fangirl's way of showing how I'm hoping desperately for Klaine to get back together.
