I start with an outline of major events. I then fill them in as I write chapter by chapter. Sometimes a scene pops into my head and I write it down because it’s out of order.

The One That Got Away - AU after the breakup scene in Season 6 Episode 1. Heartbroken and devastated after Kurt ended their relationship, Blaine changed his life completely. He quit NYADA. Enrolled at NYU and became a Pediatric Surgeon. He married Sebastian Smythe and they later have a beautiful daughter named Elena. Kurt realized he made a huge mistake by letting Blaine go. But the realization came too late. Blaine had already moved on and wanted nothing to do with Kurt. Kurt did his best to move on with his life. He graduated from NYADA and started getting cast in off Broadway productions, which led to having his big break when he was cast to be Link Larkin in Hairspray on Broadway. Since then, his career had taken off and he became a successful actor, but he couldn’t find a man he loves enough to marry. Desperate to have a family of his own, he found an egg donor and surrogate to have a baby, a boy which he named Chris. This is a story about a lost love between Kurt and Blaine, as well as a love story between Chris and Elena. No matter how hard their parents try to keep them apart, Chris and Elena find each other. Even after 25 years, the strength of their love might just be the thing to bring Kurt and Blaine back together.
Let it Snow! - Kurt and Blaine meet at a toy store under bad circumstances. Kurt walked away being angry at Blaine. After being stranded at the airport due to snow, they go on a road trip to get home to their families for Christmas. The road trip in the snow might just be the holiday magic they need to bring their hearts together.
A Latte Love - This is the first story in a Meet-Cute series. Each story (one shot) will be a different first time meeting between Kurt and Blaine. Some might lead to happily ever after. Some might lead to friends forever. And some might just be a meet-cute that doesn't go anywhere. I hope you go on this journey with me of exploring all the different ways these boys meet in an Alternate Universe.
