When: Friday night, March 17th 2017
Notes: Kurt comes over and they have their annual movie marathon. Rachel talks to Kurt about the glee club.
Triggers: None.
Kurt couldn't wait to spend a night with his best friend. Spending time with Rachel was always the absolute best for him. It was a chance for him to throw on some much more fashion forward clothes and just be full on Kurt Hummel, no cheerleading uniform or fake boy stories involved. He loved their Hummelberry time. So, as soon as he was told that bringing ice cream would mean a night at the Berry house, he was all in. Kurt raided the fridge in his kitchen for cartons of Ben and Jerry's before making his way over, knocking on the door with a big smile, totally ready to have a night full of sing a longs and snacks.
Rachel: was looking forward to spending time with Kurt, since it was always the best for her and hoped it was the same for him. She gotten her room together, looking forward to see her best friend out of his Cheerio's uniform, is always a good night. She went downstairs, grabbed some snacks and glanced at herself in the mirror. She hadnt even left her bed ever since she gotten home and swallowed as she went back upstairs. She had been feeling low, to the point she didnt want to socialize but she knew that she had too. She quickly walked to the door, with the snacks in her arms and opened up widely with a grin. "Hey you!" She greeted, kissed the boy on his cheek and stepped aside to let him in.
Kurt: "I come bearing ice cream!" he grinned, stepping right inside. "And I'm thinking we start with one of your favorite musicals, and then go on to one of mine," he added, totally excited to have a movie night with her. "It's been way too long since our last sing a long night, and what better night than I night where we're surrounded by ice cream and snacks?" he laughed a little. He felt right at home in the Berry house, so he led the way straight up to Rachel's bedroom.
Rachel: shut the door behind him with a smile, nodded and looked at him. "That sounds perfectly fine with me." She replied as she stayed where she was at. "It has been, and I can't believe we let it be too long. I agree with that statement." She followed him upstairs after she locked the door and turned off the lights as she headed upstairs.
Kurt: "Our sing along movie nights are my absolute favorite," he laughed softly, getting all of their snacks set up for them. "I just watched Moana with Spencer the other night though. So that's the only one I'm going to say is off limits for tonight," he warned.
Rachel: helped him and chuckled softly. "Good, because they are mine too." She said as she looked at him, nodded once more. "Sounds good to me." She pushed up the sleeves of Finn's hoodie that she stole the first time they dated.
Kurt: handed Rachel the carton of Ben and Jerry's that he knew was her favorite flavor, knowing his bestie too well. "Nice sweatshirt by the way," he grinned a little bit, sitting on the bed amongst the piles of snacks.
Rachel: thanked him when she grabbed the carton of Ben and Jerry's, sat down on her bed after she placed the movies onto the T.V. stand. She glanced down at it, shrugged a bit with a small smile. "Thank you, I figured since I didn't give this back to Finn and I don't think he's missing it." She replied softly as she glanced over at her best friend.
Kurt: nodded his head in understanding, smiling a little towards her. "How is everything in the Finn department anyway?" he asked her curiously.
Rachel shrugged a bit as she opened up her ice cream, grabbed a spoon after she placed her lid on the bed. "I don't know, we hooked up last month and I still love him but I don't know." She answered honestly. "Part of me wants to be with him but the other part is scared to get hurt again." She glanced over at him and raised an eyebrow. "Do you know something?"
Kurt: listened to the girl, nodding his head as she spoke. "Okay. Well, if you know you're still in love with him then why don't you just go for it?" he asked. "I know you don't want to get hurt but, if you know you want to be with him, then why not?" he asked before putting his hands up in defense. "I know nothing."
Rachel: let out a breath as she looked at the ice cream, not really knowing why she was having doubts all of a sudden. "I dunno, I feel like maybe everyone's right about it being a rollercoaster." She lightly bit down on her bottom lip, knowing that he needed to know about everything. "Promise?"
Kurt: "I know it seems like a mess, but, I mean, if you guys are in love isn't it worth it?" he asked, digging his spoon into his carton of ice cream. "I mean.. If you want to be with him, or anyone, there's always a risk of getting hurt, but, that doesn't mean you shouldn't do it," he shrugged.
Rachel: let out a breath as she nodded, pulled her legs closer to her chest and rested her chin on her knees. "Yeah, its worth it." She agreed as she let out a sigh and glanced over at him. "True, besides. Its Finn and I, and it would be different if it wasn't."
Kurt: grinned a little, nodding his head. "So what does that mean? You want to be with him?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at the girl.
Rachel: swallowed some as she nodded. "Whenever I think about the future, I imagine him standing there with me and no matter what we're doing at the time. We're always together."
Kurt: watched Rachel with a grin, nodding his head. "Okay, if he's in all of your dreams for the future, you need to go for it, okay? I wish there was a guy I had around here that I could see myself having a life with."
Rachel: saw his grin, returned it with a small one and nodded. "Okay." She whispered, raised an eyebrow as she took a bite out of her ice cream. "Do I need to set you up with a guy from my work?"
Kurt: rolled his eyes fondly, shaking his head. "I'm perfectly fine being single. I just.. Feel like it would be nice sometimes, to have someone," he bit his lip some. "How cute are these guys from work exactly?"
Rachel: slowly nodded, knowing what he had meant and grabbed the cookies from downstairs before she placed it into her ice cream. "This is true." She replied, smiled as she glanced over at him. "Very cute, its a mash up between Thomas' charms and Jackson's looks with a hint of badboy vibe. Which, they're bi."
Kurt: hummed, eating a big spoonful of ice cream. "Okay... He sounds cute. But you know me, do I need a badboy kind of guy? I mean, would that really work?" he asked skeptically.
Rachel: hummed a bit as she ate her cookie and really thought about it. "I know, you need someone to make you relax and take risks." She replied as she turned towards him. "Kurt, do you want to keeping living it safe?"
Kurt: sighed softly, shaking his head. "No. Yes. I don't know," he shrugged, looking down into his ice cream. "I like being safe. I like going to school in my uniform, not getting bothered, and going home to watch some musicals. But, it would be nice to.. Take a risk, I guess."
Rachel: nodded, knowing what he had meant and took a drink of her water. "I know..." She replied, raised an eyebrow. "Yeah? I can give you the boy's number if you'd want. And I have something to ask, too."
Kurt: nodded his head, smiling a little bit. "Okay. Okay, I'll take it," he agreed. "And you know you can ask me anything," he added, looking over towards her. "Why? What's up?" he asked.
Rachel: smiled as she grabbed her phone and scrolled through her phone. She hummed a bit, placed her ice cream on the night stand. "Would you like to join the glee club? Since you're a really great singer."
Kurt: rose an eyebrow at Rachel, looking at her like she was crazy. "You want me to join the glee club?" he asked. "You know I joined Cheerios for a reason, Rach."
Rachel: nodded as he talked and never leaving his face. "Yeah, I do and I know you did but imagine doing all of the songs we can do. That you can do!"
Kurt: "I like to sing, Rachel. You know I do. And as much as I would love to be in glee with you, I just don't know if I can do it," he sighed softly.
Rachel: placed her ice cream carton off to the side and sat in front of him. "I know, and please Kurt. I'm sure Mr. Schue will let you sit in one practice and watch us get emotionally naked. Which I don't have a song for but still. Can you at least think about it before you toss in the towel?"
Kurt: bit his lip some, thinking about it for a minute. "It's not like I stop being a cheerleader if I join," he hummed. "And I would like to sing with you for an audience once in a while but.. I just don't know. Would they even want me in there?" he asked.
Rachel: nodded as she agreed. "Exactly, so you'll have the uniform as a protective shield from anyone who has giving you harassment." She smiled the more he talked and nodded once more. "Of course Kurt, I wouldn't see the problem of you being in there."
Kurt: bit his lip some, nodding his head as he listened to her. "I'll think about it. Okay? I don't even know what I would audition with," he sighed softly.
Rachel: grinned when she heard him and nodded, before she held up a finger. "I got the perfect song for you." She replied, gotten up quickly and grabbed her iPod. She scrolled through it and looked at him. "You need something to show off your perfect pitch and I would say Defying Gravity is definitely up there. I believe you can hit the high F on Defying. Or you can sing something more modern, like who's your favorite artist?"
Kurt: laughed a little, nodding his head. "As much as I love Wicked and I love that song, maybe I should go in with something a little less... I don't know, /gay/?" he asked.
Rachel: pushed her music sheet off of her bed with a laugh and nodded. "I would that would be the perfect idea." She replied with a smile. "Now, what is the most played song on your iTunes?" She picked up the sheet and placed it back with the others.
Kurt: "Well there's my problem, my most played songs on iTunes are all showtunes," he laughed softly. "It would be weird to sing Moana, wouldn't it?" he added with a little grin.
Rachel: shook her head with a little grin as well. "Never too weird." She reassured him.
Kurt: laughed a little, taking another big spoonful of ice cream. "Okay. I'll think about it."
Rachel: squealed a little before she carefully hugged him. "Thank you."
Kurt: laughed at her reaction, hugging her back. "Okay, okay. You're welcome."
Rachel: smiled softly before she pulled away and looked at him. "This is going to be fun."
Kurt: "If I do it," Kurt nodded. "No promises just yet. Okay?" he chuckled.
Rachel: gave him a soft smile. "Okay."
Kurt: "Now why don't we get these movies started? I'm thinking we start with some Barbra and end with Phantom," he grinned, looking through her extensive collection of musicals.
Rachel: nodded as she sat back where she was and gave him a small smile. "Sounds good to me." She said as she grabbed her ice cream carton.
Kurt: smiled a little at the decision, leaning back against the headboard. "Perfect," he hummed.
Rachel: leaned back as well and crossed her legs. "Very perfect."
