Sugar, yes please.

Blaine Devon Anderson. Twenty-three years old and proud citizen of Genovia. Member of the Royal Security, but I'm afraid any more information about that is strictly limited and classified. After all, we can't go giving details about that out now, can we? I don't know what else you might want to know about me; I'm pretty keen on music - I have a rather impression collection if I do say so myself, I'm what you may call a bow tie enthusiast and a real coffee addict. If you've got any questions or you'd like to introduce yourself I'd be delighted to chat to you - my askbox is always open and ready for anything you guys want to throw at it. So go right ahead.

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt was happy when Blaine agreed to a dance and he laughed softly, “Five minutes. You can even countdown if you want.” He teased, smiling as he took his hand and moved to rest his other on Blaine’s shoulder while Blaine’s wet around his waist. “Honey, relax. I can see you’re still a bit nervous. Everything is absolutely fine. Rachel is with Sam, so the only kind of trouble he can get in to, well…it’d be something I don’t think he’d be okay with you stopping.” He teased, grinning cheekily at him. There’s guards all over and everyone is smiling and having a good time. You’re a guard, yes. But you’re a person too. You’re a citizen of this town and of this kingdom and you deserve to have fun just as much as everyone else. So just..relax for a few minutes, okay?”

He nodded at the question Blaine had asked beforehand and hummed a bit, “I am. I’ve always enjoyed the parties the palace holds and this is no exception. And now…” He shifted a bit closer, his smile softening as they continued to sway and move around with everyone else, “Now it’s even better.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine chuckled at the teasing, shaking his head as they moved onto the dance floor. He knew that any time together would shoot past at the speed of light and before he knew it he’d have to get back to business, so he really should make the most of these precious moments. It wasn’t like they had numerous opportunities to actually do couple things like this. “I know, I know.” He released a long breath, forcing his shoulders to drop some of the tension within them. “Relaxing. I’m relaxing.” He leant forwards, resting his chin on Kurt’s shoulder for a moment, turning his face into the other man’s neck.

“Good.” He hummed, his arms tightening ever so slightly around Kurt’s waist as they moved to the beat of the music. No one spared them a glance, everyone was too caught up in their own little worlds to worry about anyone else around them. Finally the music came to a close and Blaine regretfully pulled away, “I think that five minutes is over, but maybe we can grab another dance later on? If I can be super corny, maybe save the last dance for me?” He grinned, letting his hands finally drop from around Kurt’s waist, squeezing Kurt’s hand briefly.

Kurt Hummel

Kurt pecked Blaine’s lips once more, unable to help it as he snagged just one more kiss before he finally let his boyfriend go. He knew Rachel was probably with Sam so he just let himself walk around and mingle, thanking a waiter as he was given a glass of champagne and just enjoyed himself. He spoke with a couple friends he had from classes and even people from the cafe, knowing that basically the entire kingdom was here, whether they were in the main room, out in the gardens, or milling about in the places people were accepted to walk about in the castle.

About an hour in he got a text from Rachel saying she would be ‘occupying’ Sam’s time for the next twenty minutes or so and Kurt snorted to himself but thanked her and went to find Blaine, assuring him that Sam was safe, “Rachel will definitely be…guarding his body for the next little bit.” And assured him, smiling teasingly as he held his hand out for him, “So I think while he’s occupied, you should take five minutes to not be a bodyguard and just be a boyfriend and dance with me.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

The evening seemed to be going well. Blaine kept a close eye on Sam, smirking occasionally whenever he spotted Rachel appearing next to his friend. Those two made a gorgeous couple and as long as she didn’t try and jerk him around again then he’d happily support them together. Whether the Royal Family supported the match was another thing entirely, but Blaine could only hope that with time Sam’s parents would come round to the idea.

There was general chatter through his earpiece as his colleagues kept a sharp eye out for any potential troublemakers, or made jokes about some of the masks that people had chosen to wear, well, they couldn’t be totally professional all of the time! Suddenly, however, his boyfriend was stood next to him and he blinked at this words, letting out a slightly surprised laugh at the phrase. “I - okay, five minutes though.” He warned, lifting his hand up to inform the other guards he was taking a quick break whilst the Prince was occupied and with a slightly nervous glance around them he led them to the dance floor. He was sure Mr Berry wouldn’t give him too much of a hard time for this, but he still hoped that the older man wasn’t anywhere near! “You enjoying yourself?”

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt couldn’t help but laugh at Blaine’s words, just grinning playfully in his direction as he nodded, “I know, I know. I just wanted to tease you–and to hear you admit to it all.” He teased, smiling brightly still as he leaned in a bit closer, “And for the record, I quite enjoy stealing you for myself every couple of nights, so I’m glad His Highness approves.” he joked lightly. He was still smiling even as Blaine told him he should be heading back to Sam and he hummed softly as he nodded, “Alright. I’ll try and see you later then? And if anything, no matter what I’ll find you to see you before we leave.” he promised, knowing he made it a point to always find Blaine to say goodnight before leaving.

He hesitated then, glancing down at the ball and to everyone very much minding their own business before he leaned in and kissed Blaine softly, properly this time, keeping it soft and chaste but still lingering for a few long moments. When he finally pulled back he pressed his forehead against Blaine’s for a moment, a little smile on his lips as he blinked his eyes up to his, light and happy and teasing still as he pulled back, “Have a good evening, Mr. Anderson.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine could only shake his head at Kurt’s comment, chuckling softly at the words tumbling from his boyfriend’s lips. He had to admit he also quite enjoyed having someone who could steal him away every once in a while, it made a nice change to his evenings. He’d certainly gotten used to having Kurt in his life very quickly, and he couldn’t really imagine going back to his previous existance. “Sure, I’ll see you later on. Have a great time, okay?” He was ready to turn around and head back down the stairs, except then Kurt leant in and he was suddenly very distracted.

He hummed as their lips broke apart, his eyes staying closed for a moment longer until Kurt finally moved away. “You too, Mr Hummel.” He returned the smile before he started to make his way back down the stairs, turning when he reached the bottom to shoot a last grin up at the other man before he slipped into the ballroom and back to his position, quickly taking stock of any changes since he’d been away. The room had started to fill, Sam was still circulating but it was definitely getting a little harder to track him now.

What: Chaos ensues during a Halloween masquerade.

KURT HUMMEL

All teasing aside, Kurt knew that Blaine’s job required his utmost attention, and he didn’t mind it. He wasn’t at all about to become that person that made their significant other choose between them and their job, not at all. He was proud of Blaine and what he did, was glad that he had such a brave and caring and strong man to call his boyfriend, so he didn’t mind that it often meant Blaine needing to be more by Sam than by himself. Besides, they’d been together for a couple of months now, and a lot of people- both workers in the palace and just some in the kingdom- knew they were together. And really, that was enough. It was enough to know that they weren’t hiding and he wasn’t some dirty little secret.

“I’m sure I will either way. It’s always fun when the palace throws something like this for a holiday or special day- like Halloween.” He replied with a smile before his brow went up, “Oh?” he asked, laughing softly as he grinned and stepped a bit closer to him, keeping his eyes on him, “Care to elaborate?” he asked teasingly, already of course knowing the answer but just liking the ability to play around with him and tease him anyways, especially if it meant prolonging the time Blaine would be spending with him.

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine returned the smile - he couldn’t agree more with Kurt’s words. If there was one thing the palace did well then it was parties like these. They knew how to throw a good bash; normally these things were talked about for months, maybe even years. Hopefully this would be another one for the history books. From the preparations he’d overheard it would be a really great evening, with a couple of surprises throughout the night. Everyone should be pretty surprised with this evening, hopefully in the best possible way.

At Kurt’s questioning he let out a rather indelicate snort, “You know exactly what I mean. I actually have plans on weekends, so he can get rid of me for a couple of nights.” He shook his head slightly, before he let out a small sigh. “But right now, I need to head back in there. And you should probably get around to enjoying your evening.”

What: Chaos ensues during a Halloween masquerade.

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt didn’t even mind blushing around Blaine, not really. Sure, he’d prefer not to feel so bashful and flustered around the older male all the time, but….Blaine’s reaction to it kind of made it worth it since it caused him to smile almost every single time. And really, Kurt would do anything just to make Blaine smile, something he’s come to realize over the last few months with him.

He smiled softly as he felt Blaine’s thumb sliding along his skin and he hummed, “I will. And yeah, Rach and I will definitely be dancing–although I wouldn’t mind dancing with my boyfriend either.” He tacked on casually, still getting a thrill every time he used that word to refer to Blaine. “Maybe I can recruit Rachel to help me in that. She can dance with Sam if I can dance with you.” He smiled even more when Blaine leaned in to kiss him and he leaned into it, extending it for a second more before he nodded, “I find a lot of things about you appealing, Mr. Anderson.” He teased before nodding once more, “But all teasing aside, even just five minutes with you makes me happy. So if I see him tonight, I’ll definitely be thanking him.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine’s smile turned wistful for a moment; it would be amazing if they could get a chance for a dance or two, but it would depend on how the night actually went. If Sam was happy to allow them a moment or two to enjoy the actual dancing tonight then that was fantastic, but if not then they’d have to accept that and organise a proper date night another time. They’d both known that his job would cause some issues like this, but so far it hadn’t been anything they couldn’t deal with. He hoped it would remain that way for the foreseeable future.

“We’ll see what happens, but even if we don’t get a dance I hope you have a really great night.” He hummed into the brief kiss, warmth swelling in his chest at the contact. “I’m glad to hear that,” He chuckled, “I’m sure he’ll appreciate the thanks, he’s...kind of a fan of his bodyguard having an actual life nowadays.”

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt knew that as Sam’s main bodyguard, Blaine was obviously going to be busy, but…still. He just wanted to see him. So he was about to take his phone out again to text Blaine when he heard the older boy’s voice. He looked over immediately and when he saw his boyfriend walking over to him and heard what he said, Kurt felt his heart fluttering happily in a way it always did around Blaine. He also felt his cheeks flush slightly due to the compliment and a grin tug at his lips as he closed the small distance between them.

“Yeah? M’glad you think so.” he replied, still blushing as he smiled up at him and he reached over to take Blaine’s hand for a moment, squeezing gently, “I know you’re going to be busy tonight, but…I’m really glad Sam let us have some time together.” He told him, squeezing again before he let go, “You look very handsome as well, by the way. Just like you always do.” He tacked on, grinning at him still.

BLAINE ANDERSON

There was no way he could ever get bored of causing that look on Kurt’s face; the blush that spread across his cheeks was adorable, and every time he was the one who inspired that sort of grin he felt his chest swell with adoration. Honestly, this boy had him completely smitten. It had happened pretty quickly if he was being honest, probably from the first couple of meetings when he’d thought Kurt was unattainable. His feelings had certainly grown over the past couple of months of their relationship, and...well, he could definitely see some sort of future for them.

“Me too,” He agreed, brushing his thumb gently over the back of Kurt’s hand, “He’s done as much as he can to give us a bit of time, but I bet you’ll have a great time even if I’m not right there. Rach is going to need a good dance partner, after all.” He had to fight back the urge to look around for the petite brunette, he was still so used to her being close to Kurt all the time. “I do? Why, thank you, Mr Hummel. I’m glad you find the uniform so appealing.” This time he did shoot a quick glance around them before he leant in for a quick kiss, just a simple peck on the lips before he pulled back, careful not to jostle the mask too much.

What: Chaos ensues during a Halloween masquerade.

KURT HUMMEL

The last couple months with Blaine had been nothing short of incredible. Blaine made him feel more than he ever had before. Made him happier with life in general, made him excited, made him feelalive–made him feel like the luckiest guy in the world. He knew it’d only been a couple of months but….he made him feel like he could easily fall in love with him. And Kurt was pretty sure he already had.

Not that he’d say that aloud. Not so soon.

These were all the thoughts swirling through his head as he got dressed for tonight ball, wearing a perfectly tailored black tux and his hair up in its usual coif. The outfit was completed with an all black masquerade mask that matched the one that Rachel was wearing–the two deciding to go as each others’ date since their boyfriends couldn’t exactly join them, given they were the prince and his bodyguard.

Once they were both all set they headed to the palace, excitement flowing through them. I’ll be there soon - K Kurt texted Blaine as they made their way there and, soon enough, they were walking arm-in-arm into the lavish palace, decorated for Halloween with blacks and purples and silvers all over, looking more gothic than scary but still beautiful. Kurt had told Blaine he’d meet him at the top of the ballroom’s main staircase so that’s where he stood, adjusting the mask on his face and the lapels of his jacket before he looked around and waited for Blaine to appear

BLAINE ANDERSON

It seemed as though the last few months had been a whirlwind. It had been so long since Blaine had had anyone special in his life, let alone been in an actual relationship. He’d half-worried at the start that he’d forgotten how to really be someone’s boyfriend, in fact even now that they’d been doing this for a while now he still wondered if he was doing it all right. Thankfully Kurt seemed to be happy with how things were going and that was all that mattered. As long as Kurt was happy then so was Blaine.

It should have made him slightly nervous how quickly his own comfort and happiness had come to rely on Kurt’s, instead it just felt natural. Everything with Kurt felt natural nowadays, as though they’d been together for years, doing this dance throughout their life instead of only properly meeting quite recently.

With a scoff of his own thoughts he shook his head, reaching up to the small earpiece wrapped around his earlobe. He ensured it was tucked in properly as he shifted his weight slightly from one foot to the other, watching the slow trickle of people enter the room. Sam was already mixing amongst them, his dirty blonde head easy to spot in the nearly empty ballroom.

From within his jacket pocket he felt his phone buzz and discreetly he pulled it out, a soft smile tugging at the corners of his lips at the text. Sam had promised he could have a little time to spend with Kurt this evening, so long as he was able to organise someone to cover for him. It was more than Blaine had been expecting really and he was incredibly grateful for everything Sam had done for them so far. He didn’t need to be so accommodating.

Blaine waited another couple of minutes before he called one of his colleagues over, letting them take his place in time for him to slip through to the main corridor leading to the staircase. They might not get much time to actually hang out tonight, but as long as he got to see Kurt once in all his finery then he’d be happy.

He wasn’t disappointed at all.

He stared up at the figure at the top of the stairs, perfectly tailored suit clinging to him in all the right places and dark mask perched gracefully over his nose and eyes. He looked the picture of perfection. 

Blaine made his way up the stairs, allowing himself more time to properly take in Kurt’s outfit. By the time he reached the top he was grinning, “You look amazing.” He breathed.

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt smirked over at him playfully, obviously glad that he’d slightly gotten his way at least in that Blaine would at least let him pay for their next date. He took one final sip of water as Blaine stood up and he smiled softly at him as he nodded, “The honor’s all mine, good sir.” He replied teasingly as he stood as well to head out. He gave their waiter a polite smile and bid him goodnight as well before following out with Blaine into the warm summer air.

He looked over when Blaine offered him his hand and he smiled before immediately taking it, only hesitating for a second before he laced their fingers together and squeezed gently as they set off towards his house. “I’m really glad we did this.” He told him softly, smiling over at him, “I mean…all the coffee dates and hanging out when we can has been nice, and I love any time I get to spend with you but….this was really great. And if all our dates are just as good as this one, then I’ll be a very happy person.” he teased, smiling still as he nudged him with his shoulder gently, keeping his pace slow to prolong things as much as he could, just wanting to spend a bit more time with the older boy who’s quickly become such an important part of his life.

BLAINE ANDERSON

Once Kurt took his hand they started on their way back down the street, their fingers laced together and a pleasant, warm bubble beginning in Blaine’s chest. “Me too. I guess, since this is an actual date it’s...a bit more special. It’s more than just grabbing coffee.” He squeezed Kurt’s hand gently, grinning over at him at the mention of the date. If Kurt kept on talking like this then it’d certainly go to his head!

“We’ll have to plan something big for next time then, keep the dates getting bigger and better.” He chuckled, returning the shoulder bump as they moved down the pavement. This evening had certainly been a wonderful date; it was definitely in his top ten, that was for sure and it was fantastic to know that Kurt had enjoyed it. The fact that this had been Kurt’s first ever date had certainly added a little pressure to the occasion, but it seemed to have gone swimmingly.

They continued on their way down the street, the conversation easy and fun between them until they finally reached Kurt’s front door. As Blaine bid his date goodnight he couldn’t help the ripple of excitement at the thought of the next date.

When: 2nd August.

What: The first date finally happens.

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt laughed softly at the mention of Blaine’s brother and he shrugged, “Okay, okay, if you say so.” He agreed easily, not wanting to push the subject or anything since he didn’t know too much about the older Anderson and as such, he didn’t know much about his relationship with Blaine (or maybe lack thereof).

When the waiter returned with the check Kurt couldn’t even make a move for his wallet as Blaine payed and he playfully narrowed his eyes at him before letting out an exaggerated sigh and he nodded, “Fine…but then I’m getting the next date, no arguments.” He told him, wagging a finger at him before he sat back and smiled at him. He watched Blaine sign off on the bill and once everything was set he looked back at him, a bit sad that the night was over since he didn’t want to say goodbye just yet–which was why his eyes practically lit up and he smiled at the offer to walk him home, nodding almost immediately, “No–I mean, yes. I..” He laughed as he let out a breath, shaking his head at himself, “I wouldn’t mind it at all. I’d love it if you walked me home.” he assured him, smiling warmly at him.

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine was rather relieved when the topic of his brother was swiftly dropped. There’d probably be a conversation about this in the future, especially if this thing between him and Kurt gained momentum, but right now wasn’t the time for that. He could postpone that for a good while longer he hoped. It wasn’t as though Coop would pop up in his life anytime soon, so there wouldn’t be any awkward moments there.

“You’ve got yourself a deal.” He grinned across the table at Kurt before he pushed his own chair back and stood up. “In that case it’ll be an honour to escort you back home.” He led the way carefully out of the restaurant, nodding a goodbye to their waiter as they passed him. He held the door open for Kurt and followed his date out into the street, as they stood on the pavement he waited a beat before offering his hand.

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt grinned at that, laughing lightly and nodded, “Very true. I quite like us just the way we are, weirdness and all.” He agreed with a bright smile. He thought it might be a bit crazy for him to be in such a good mood because of cake and yet here we was, smiling and feeling content with..basically everything. Blaine had a part of that contentedness though, a big part of it. Being around Blaine felt so right, so easy and perfect that he couldn’t imagine being like this with anyone else- and really, he didn’t want to.

He laughed softly again at his words, shrugging, “Well, if that’s the case then I think I might just get along with this elusive brother of yours if I ever get the chance to meet him. I might just have to sway him my way by cooking for him and all.” He teased, knowing that somewhere down the line, he’d like to meet some of Blaine’s family, and he could only hope that, when he did, that they’d like him even just a little bit. He moved back so the waiter could clear the table, telling them he’d be right back with the check, and once it was empty Kurt just looked over at Blaine once more, a teasing smirking on his face, “So..I’m not a whole expert on this dating thing but..I think I can safely say this was the best first date I’ve ever been on.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

At the mention of Kurt meeting his brother Blaine shook his head quickly, “Oh, I don’t think you need to meet Coop anytime soon. He’s...well, he’s a handful.” Whilst Blaine loved his brother he wasn’t the easiest person to get along with. He was charming - he could get an entire room on his side in no time at all, but he was arrogant, selfish and he hadn’t been back to see Blaine or their parents in years. At this rate there really wouldn’t be a chance of Kurt meeting Coop for decades!

The waiter appeared and cleared their table and Blaine returned Kurt’s smile. “I’m glad to hear that.” He chuckled, leaning back when the waiter returned with their check. He pulled it towards him and reached into his pocket, tugging out his wallet. “Now, as this is a first date and a special first date at that this one’s on me.” He produced a credit card and within second the waiter was back with them, taking the card from him and rushing off to the till. When the receipt was returned to him he signed and they were set to go. “Do you mind if I walk you home?”

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt grinned and nodded, “Maybe that can be our next date. Normal couple go out to movies and dinner, we can do boxing lessons and picnics in the castle so you’re still technically on duty.” He replied with a grin. He focused on the dessert then, the delicious, amazing, decadent dessert that Kurt was going to dream about for days to come.

“We’ll be back here just for the cheesecake. Seriously this is amazing.” he told him, cutting him off a small piece and once again offering it across the table. “This place really is wonderful. I’m glad you picked it.” he kept up small talk after as he continued eating his dessert, not letting any bit of it go to waste and by the end of hi, he was completely stuff and didn’t regret a second of it. “Hope me devouring my meal in front of you was enough of a turn off to make you regret asking me out.” he teased, smirking playfully as he finished off his water as the waiters cleaned off their table.

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine chuckled, taking another bite of his dessert. “Well, who wants to be normal anyway?” He joked, watching as Kurt turned his full attention to the cheesecake in front of him. It was rather adorable watching him eat it so enthusiastically, and a smile tugged at the corners of his lips as the other man offered him another piece of his food. He leant forwards and gently took it off the fork, releasing a small noise of satisfaction as he bit down.

“It is pretty great.” He agreed; he would have offered Kurt some of his own but his date seemed way too preoccupied with his cheesecake to want to waste time trying Blaine’s food. Anyway, he was kind of enjoying it too much to offer too much. “I can promise that it hasn’t. Believe me, after living with my brother I got used to seeing someone practically inhale their food, so this was nothing. Anyway, it’s nice to know that you liked it!” He added as he finished off the last of his own dessert and settled back in his chair so the waiter could clear away their plates.

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt laughed lightly again and shook his head, “Afraid not, honey.” He teased, wrinkling his nose playfully at him before nudging him again under the table, “Although in the same vein, I happen to recall the promise of being taught to box..” he reminded him, smirking at him.

Kurt smiled brightly at him and nodded, “Trust me, I know the feeling.” He agreed, holding his hand still even as their desserts came and he smiled at the waited, thanking him before he grabbed his fork, a grin already on his face as he cut into it and had his first piece of the cheesecake, a happy humming noise rumbling in the of his throat once again. “God, I adore you for bringing me here.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

At the reminder of those promised boxing lessons Blaine’s face lit up and he nodded eagerly. “Just say the word and I’ll set everything up. It never hurts to know how to throw a punch correctly, or block one come to that.” If he kept up like this he’d be able to retire from the security detail and instead work as a boxing coach or something! Well, as long as teaching Puck and potentially Kurt went well.

As their desserts appeared he raised an eyebrow at Kurt’s enthusaistic response, his lips twitching with amusement. “If cheesecake gets me that reaction every time I’ll definitely be studying menus more carefully from now on.” He released Kurt’s hand in order to tackle his own dessert, using his fork to carefully slice through it. “This place is a real gem though. I’m just glad I got to share it with someone, especially you. And by the looks of it,” He gestured to Kurt’s plate, “We’ll be back here pretty soon for more cheesecake.”

“It was just a metaphor, honey.” he teased as he nodded, “Trust me, I’ve seen you on duty. And I’ve seen the others as well. But anyways, it’s just not for me.” he replied simply, knowing he’d never been suited for that kind of thing and it was okay with him, because where Blaine boxed and obviously worked out, all Kurt really did was Yoga and occasional jogging on and off a treadmill.

He let those thoughts drift though as he felt the warmth of Blaine’s palm against his own and he smiled warmly over at him, “It definitely has. Mostly because it’s you.” he found himself reply, the tiniest little tint of pink coloring his cheeks as he squeezed Blaine’s hand gently, “I’m always happy when I’m with you and…this having the label of ‘date’ just..makes it all even better.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine chuckled, shaking his head lightly at Kurt’s words. “Okay, so it looks like there’s no way of convincing you to try it out then?” He couldn’t help but keep the teasing going, although he had to admit it’d be pretty fun to get Kurt to try out his job for a day. 

He felt his cheeks flush happily at the praise and he squeezed Kurt’s fingers gently in return, “It’s great to hear you feel like that,” He murmured, “It’s good to know I’m not the only one thinking like that.”

Kurt rolled his eyes at that and shook his head, “I’d worry about dressing someone than putting them in handcuffs, thanks.” he replied, scrunching his nose up and shaking his head again, “I’ll leave the bodyguard-ing to all the ‘strapping young men’ like you.” he teased, grinning playfully over at him.

When Blaine mentioned the cheesecake Kurt laughed and felt a dumb little flutter inside himself because Blaine knew his favorite thing was cheesecake and really, he needed to resist his knee-jerk reaction of saying something like see, this is why I love you because wouldn’t that turn the evening awkward. So instead he just smiled widely and took a menu, skimming through it before his eyes practically lit up, “Ooooh strawberry and chocolate cheesecake.” He ordered that one right away, smiling politely at the waiter before turning back to Blaine. His expression softened then and he reached out, once again taking Blaine’s free hand in his, “Me too. Best first date so far I could’ve ever asked for.”

“Well, we don’t really use handcuffs,” He reasoned, “Those are more a police thing than ours. We’re more the ‘knock them out’ than ‘lock them up’ kind of security.” Naturally that response depended on the threat that was perceived, but more often than not the suspect was restrained by force rather than handcuffs. At least until the proper authorities arrived. Thankfully Blaine hadn’t had to deal with too many of those sorts of issues so far. 

It didn’t take long for Kurt to spot an item on the menu and they were back to companionable silence for a moment. He carefully moved his hand in Kurt’s until he could lace their fingers together, relishing in the rush of warmth that slid down his arm at the contact. “I’m glad it’s met your expectations.” As long as Kurt was enjoying it then that was all that mattered, after all, it was his first ever date. If he’d known that beforehand then maybe he would have attempted to make it a little bit more special, but as it was it seemed to be going well.

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt felt Blaine’s foot against his and he nudged his own forwards a bit, smiling over at him, “Why thank you, Mr. Anderson.” he replied happily. He finished his own meal soon after, only a little embarrassed at how he literally ate every bit of it–but it was a delicious and really, wasn’t an empty plate a compliment to a chef?

Kurt snorted softly and scrunched his nose up as he shook his head, “Please, look at me. I don’t think anyone would be scrambling for the chance to have me as their bodyguard.” He teased before nodding, “She’ll definitely be on board. She’s really happy for me, you know. For us.” he told him, his smile softening as he nodded once more, “We’ll figure it out.” he promised, just as the waiter came by to clear the plates away and left two dessert menus and Kurt looked over to Blaine, “Yes or no?” he asked, waving the smaller menu and wondering if he should even open it.

BLAINE ANDERSON

It was wonderful to see that Kurt had finished off his entire plateful of food as well; Blaine had to admit he’d have been a little embarrassed if it had just been his plate that was empty. It was also a testament to the quality of the food in this place. Thank goodness he’d picked a good place for a first date!

“I think with some training you’d be pretty good,” He chuckled, “We could get you carrying a weapon around here in no time.” The idea of Kurt being able to carry a gun around town was actually slightly terrifying, but Blaine wasn’t about to say that out loud. He turned his attention to the menu placed in front of him, and was quick to say “And deprive you of the potential cheesecake? No way.” With that he flicked open the menu and quickly found his favourite, waiting until Kurt had made his own choice before he caught the waiter’s eye. Once their orders were taken he settled back in his seat, reaching out to grasp his glass and take another sip. “This has been really fun so far, I’m...I’m glad we did this.”

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt smiled happily at Blaine’s reply, looking over to meet his eyes, “Thank you for the vote of confidence.” he replied genuinely, smiling still, “It’s nice to know that, if I do go through with this all, I’ll have your support in my insanity.” He took a few more bites after that, internally pouting that his meal was almost done because it was just so good but oh well.

When Blaine mentioned Mr. Berry again Kurt once again let out a laugh and grinned at him, “Well, maybe not more time off but…maybe he wouldn’t be so opposed to letting me hang out around the castle more to spend time with you. Besides, I’ll have you know he’s definitely a romantic at heart. I helped him plan his honeymoon surprise last year thank you very much. And if he sees how happy I am with you, he might be more okay with it–and besides, if I get Rachel in on it too? Then we’re golden. She’s got them both wrapped around her tiny finger.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

Blaine returned the smile, stretching his leg out beneath the table and brushing his foot gently against Kurt’s. “I’ll always support your insanity.” He promised with a smirk, before he turned his attention back to his own meal. He made quick work of the rest of his plate, and he couldn’t even find it in himself to feel embarrassed. It wasn’t often he ate this quickly, but he couldn’t really help it when it tasted this good. 

Once he’d placed his knife and fork carefully back on the plate and dabbed at the corner of his mouth with his napkin he shot Kurt another smile. “You’d better be careful with that, otherwise he’ll start working on getting you to join the guard too!” He teased, “Although I can totally see Rachel being a great ally in this. I’m sure we’ll be able to work something out without involving them, but at least we know we have a plan of action if it doesn’t go to plan.”

KURT HUMMEL

Kurt tried not to think about just how much he liked the domesticity of it all as Blaine took another bite from his fork and he nodded, “I know. I mean….I’m not naive enough to think that I’ll get my big break overnight, but having a degree under my belt will help regardless. Plus, I’ll get a personal thrill out of being the first person in my family with a college diploma so…that’s what I’m aiming for. And til then I’ll happily work in the cafe. Although I’m thinking of maybe interning and helping out with my fashion stuff at school, or maybe even with the royals if there’s ever another fashion show or anything like that.” he mused, smiling as he grabbed his glass, “Maybe I’m stretching myself too thin but…we’ll see.”

He was glad he had his cup in his hand to occupy him as he thought about Blaine’s words, a little twist and flutter happening in his belly at the thoughts that crept into his head at Blaine’s reply and he just hummed as he took a sip, hoping he wasn’t blushing as he nodded. At the last bit though he let out a laugh and grinned over at him, “Honey, you’re forgetting who my best friend is. Rachel’s dads love me. I’m sure I could sweet talk him into being a bit lenient with you.”

BLAINE ANDERSON

“I think you should totally give it all a shot,” He nodded, “I mean, it might be a lot to do and I don’t want you to go burning yourself out, but the more experience you have the better. It’s about time management, that’s just something you’ll have to figure out if you go for all that stuff.” 

Blaine snorted a laugh at Kurt’s comment as he ducked his head, trying to hide his mirth. “He’s probably more lenient on me than some of the other guys on duty, but I appreciate the gesture. I don’t know how he’d feel about me getting more time off to go on dates...I’m not sure if he’s a romantic at heart...” He lifted his head, pursing his lips as he thought.
