"I think we can manage to do that," Kurt said softly, thumb smoothing over the back of Blaine's hand. "We'll just have to go absolutely everywhere." For a flickering moment, he frowned. It was all well and good to go around Lima and make memories at anywhere they could think of, and that would be good for Blaine to have once he was gone. But what about himself? New York was great but there were no Blaine places there. Nowhere for him to go to sit and think about the last time they'd been there, what they'd done, what they'd said. He shook the thought quickly, looking back out the window. A year wasn't too bad, and then once that year was done they'd be there together and he wouldn't need places that reminded him of Blaine, because he would have the genuine article.

"I just need to keep practicing. There's no such thing as being too prepared, after all." It was reassuring that Blaine was so certain that he was going to get in, but Kurt was still mostly all nerves when it came to his audition.

Listening to Kurt’s thoughts on his upcoming audition, Blaine smiled and nodded, giving Kurt’s hand a squeeze.  “I think you’re definitely ready.  You’re going to be fine, Kurt.  You’re going to be great, in fact.  Whatever you choose, you’re going to get in.  Of that I am absolutely sure.”

I have never been more terrified in my life.

Oh God she liked me though.

"No, no tearing out of pages," Kurt said with a grin. "I want to see it all." He laced their fingers together as Blaine pulled out of the driveway, and nodded a little. "The reservoir sounds perfect. I love it there, especially with you." He lifted their hands up off the console and kissed the back of Blaine's hand. "I love anywhere with you, though."

He rest his cheek against their hands, watching Blaine as he drove. "I feel as ready as I can be, I guess. I still can't settle on a song, but at least I know I have a lot of them prepared so I have options." He knew he should have figure out what he was singing already, but the problem was that there were just so many to choose from.

“I thought we’d head over to the reservoir.  The picnic areas are open now, and it’s just cool enough out for it not to be too crowded.  And most of the time teens are only there at night, so we should have a lot of space to ourselves.”  As he pulled out onto the road, Blaine reached out and took Kurt’s hand in his, holding it on the console between them.  “So, you’re audition is finally approaching.  Do you feel ready?”

Kurt grinned and bit his lip. Oh he knew it, he just knew it. There was definitely actually a notebook. "The notebook shouldn't be off limits," he said, pouting. "I want to see all your little checklists and maybe even write in a few little notes of my own..." He rubbed his thumb over the back of Blaine's hand as he walked back through the house with him. There was no way he could keep from smiling though, just thinking about the day ahead, and he gave Blaine's hand an extra squeeze before dropping it and sliding into the passenger's seat.

After buckling up, he smoothed down his shirt and glanced over as Blaine got in. "So where are we going, exactly?" he asked, resting his head back against the headrest and smiling over at his boyfriend.

“The notebook is off limits,” Blaine told him with a smile, as he squeezed Kurt’s fingers between his own.  “You deserve the cheesecake, though.”  Tugging Kurt along with him, they exited the kitchen and he threw a wave in Finn’s direction before leading Kurt out the door and toward his car.  Once they reached it, he pulled the passenger side door open.  “Your chariot, my love,” he said, giving Kurt’s hand a kiss before winking at him.

"Just because I'm an early riser doesn't mean I don't like to sleep an extra bit when I'm able," Kurt defended, but there was no real fight behind his words. He was so used to waking up at the same time every day, the alarm rarely made a difference. He brushed another kiss across Blaine's lips and couldn't help but grin. "One day, I want to see this 'How to Properly Woo Kurt Hummel' notebook. I'm sure it would make a very interesting read." Because honestly, he wouldn't put it past Blaine for the notebook to actually exist.

"Blaine, I don't care if it's fancy, it sounds amazing," he said, swaying a little from side to side with him. "Just the fact that you did this, that's plenty fancy enough. And cheesecake as a bonus? Well, clearly you have good notes in that notebook of yours." He winked and pulled away, taking his hand and lacing their fingers together. "Shall we?"

“You’re kind of an early riser anyway,” Blaine pointed out, unable to think of a single night they’d spent together when he hadn’t woken up to find Kurt already awake, either watching him or fully dressed and giving him shit.  He smiled and wrapped his arms around Kurt’s waist, returning his kiss.  “And you know me too well.  I woke up this morning with one thing in mind—wooing Kurt Hummel.  So I rolled over in bed and pulled out my ‘How to Properly Woo Kurt Hummel’ notebook, flipped through the pages carefully, and settled on the picnic idea.  The food isn’t exactly fancy, but it’s all stuff I know you like.  The turkey is roast slices from the deli—none of that packaged stuff—and I even grabbed cheesecake from Breadstix.”

Kurt walked with him into the house and straight through to the kitchen. "It's been an alright day so far, though clearly about to get a lot better," he said, smiling over his shoulder at Blaine before opening a cupboard and pulling down a vase. "Sleep was good, except I forgot to turn my alarm off last night so I got woken up far too early and then couldn't fall back asleep. My own fault, though."

He filled the vase with water and carefully trimmed the stems of the roses before putting them in, arranging them a bit before deeming them done and turning to face Blaine. "What about you? Sleep well? Good morning? Or have you been up since the crack of dawn, planning a picnic and ways to sweep me off my feet?" He took a step in, slipping his arms around Blaine's shoulders and leaning in to kiss him.

Kurt & Blaine - Making the Most of It (Sunday, Noon)

Blaine laughed softly when Kurt couldn’t seem to finish his sentence.  He wondered if his boyfriend was leaning more toward calling him ridiculous than anything positively romantic.  After all, he couldn’t really blame him for thinking such thoughts.  Blaine was being a little bit ridiculous, but he had a month full of mistakes to make up for, and he absolutely did not want Kurt to ever, for a moment, think anything other than the fact that Blaine believed him to be the most special, beautiful, perfect human being in existence.  Because it was true.

“Of course,” he said with a nod, following Kurt into the house where Finn was sprawled across the couch watching TV.  They nodded at one another in greeting as Blaine continued after Kurt into the kitchen.  “Have you had a good morning?  Did you sleep well?”  Blaine let his gaze linger over Kurt for a long moment, taking in his broad shoulders and the slope of his back down to his perfect ass before finally moving back up to his eyes.

Kurt smiled when he saw Blaine pull up, and he'd started to get up to go meet him when Blaine got out of the car and headed his way. With roses? Kurt flushed as Blaine went down on one knee, and his eyes widened a little. "Blaine," he murmured, shaking his head a little and gathering up the roses in his hands. "You are..." Adorable? Unbelievable? Absurd? Perfect? He couldn't decide on what word to use, so he just left it was it was. "Thank you."

He leaned down and kissed him lightly before grabbing onto his arm and pulling him up to his feet. "I would be very interested in this picnic you mentioned. Just give me a minute to put these in some water?"

“Good afternoon, gorgeous,” he greeted, feeling a little silly but also feeling it was necessary as he dropped to one knee in front of Kurt and held the flowers up to him.  “Would you be interested in accompanying me on a picnic today?  I’ll even read you sonnets, if you want?  I have a few memorized, not many though.  We might have to stop by a bookstore for that.  Or I could sing to you, which quite honestly, is what I’m far, far better at doing.” Blaine grinned up at his boyfriend.

[hmmlkurt-blog]

Kurt wasn't exactly sure what to wear. Not that he expected anything drastic, because he trusted that Blaine would have told him if he needed to dress differently than usual, so he just kept on what he'd been wearing before. He'd been about to eat lunch when Blaine had texted, but he refrained at his request. He just gave his already made sandwich to Finn, who probably would have complained about the healthiness of it except for the fact that it was food and he was Finn and so that didn't really stop him from wolfing it down.

It was a gorgeous day out, so once it was close to when Blaine said he was going to be there, he went out to sit on the swing on the porch and wait.

Even though they would be okay, would talk to one another every day and visit as often as they could, it wasn’t going to be the same.  And Blaine needed to see Kurt as much as he could before he left so that all of those little things were permanently in his memory.

So, even though it wasn’t the warmest day in Lima, 65 and partly sunny wasn’t too bad.  He packed a picnic lunch—turkey sandwiches with arugula and Havarti cheese, a small fruit salad, crackers with brie, cheesecake from Breadstix and a couple bottles of water—all into a pretty picnic basket his parents had, packed up a plaid blanket, and picked some red roses from his mother’s garden, before putting it all into his car and heading over to the Hummel-Hudson household.

I think I’m the lucky one for having Kurt Hummel in my life. Also? You’re adorable.

I think it's safe to say that we're both lucky. Also? You're adorable.

[hmmlkurt-blog]

There are times in my life when I just have to sit back and wonder how I managed to get so lucky in my life. Of course there have been some major ups and downs, but I am one lucky individual. I have an amazing family that supports me. I have an incredible boyfriend who never ceases to overwhelm me with just how much he loves me, and I am still in awe of the fact that he is with me, in spite of my faults.

Yes, it's hard to deny. Kurt Hummel is one lucky guy.

edit: Wow I did not mean to make that last part rhyme and now I sound SUPER lame.

I'm not sure what else there is I can do.

My dad and I talked, a really good talk, I told Chandler not to text me anymore, and today I sang to Blaine. I know that's something that means a lot to him -- words and feelings can be expressed so much better in song than in plain speech.

I meant every word. Every word.

You know how sometimes you don't realize there's something missing in your life until something happens and it makes you aware?

That happened to me.

Amazing how a simple conversation at a music store turned into something that can bring a smile to my face. I'm not an attention whore, I don't fish for compliments, but it's nice to get them. It makes me feel so good to get them. That's not something that happens often, compliments and me. You might not believe it, but it's true.

Every time my phone buzzes, it makes me smile. It's been a while since that's been the case. It's nice.

Not a question... just wanted to say I love you!

I love you, too!
