FACE TO FACE ↔ KLAINE

[Kurt set his cellphone down on a table after sending his text to Blaine and used the hotel phone to order a variety of items from the room service menu. Blaine had said he wasn't picky, but Kurt didn't want to risk getting something subpar from the menu. He had a broad palate himself, but he knew from experience that room service could be hit and miss. Left with some time to wait for Blaine and the food to arrive, he took a quick shower. re-styled his hair. and changed into something he hadn't spent his entire day in. It was a mix of slight nerves and a learned tendency to take advantage of any free time that prompted it, even if he wasn't quite as willing to admit the former. It didn't take long for dinner to arrive just as Kurt had predicted, so started Kurt moved the plates onto the table as he waited for Blaine’s arrival.]

Blaine: Oh I'd never deny that. The fans can definitely be sweet a lot of the time. May or may not be scandalous. Now you have me intrigued. I'll keep that in mind for later.

Blaine: That came out a bit more... risque than I meant it.

Blaine: Okay. I'll head over then. Just have to pick up the cheesecake first.

Kurt: Good, intrigue was what I was going for. Mhm, you do that.

Kurt: Well... that stands either way.

Kurt: I'll see you soon, then.

Blaine: Doesn't it? I think the best part is the fact that the raspberry hair gel has become such a part of my image. People send me raspberry shampoo and give me raspberry candies... as if because I happen to use raspberry hair gel (which first started on the set of my show so it wasn't even like it was my choice) it's such a part of me. Oh really? Sorry. I'll get you into contact with my dealer... As soon as I find one. Oh really? What kind of skeletons are in your closet, Mr. Hummel? I'm sure that there are some in mine but none that are too scandalous. Well, I'll just have to get you to sit down and watch it so that you see how amazing that it is... Okay, that's actually a good point. I'll have to think on this.

Blaine: Alright, cheesecake is ordered and I'll be on my way soon. Unless it's still too early?

Kurt: As excessive as that is, it's also kind of sweet. You'll need a little more than that to get me to tell you all my secrets, Anderson. I'll just say mine may or may not be scandalous. I have to keep some air of mystery about myself, don't I? Good luck with that. I'm not saying it'll take a few more cheesecakes to get me to watch it, but I'm also not not saying that.

Kurt: No, it's fine. I'm already in my room for the night anyway. I'll order dinner so that it won't be here too soon before you are.

Blaine: I think there's something about the innocence of Disney that people always want to see tarnished. As if behind my bowties and raspberry hair gel there's a guy who spends his time snorting cocaine in a sex dungeon. Which there's not. Just so you know. I mean, obviously I have casual sex occasionally and I'm not completely innocent but there are no real skeletons in my closet. Star Trek is so much fun, though. And there's some amazing eye candy in the new movies. So the way to your heart is cheesecake? Be careful of your answer because I am selling this information later to the highest bidder on ebay...

Kurt: /Raspberry/ hair gel just reeks of hidden secrets to me. There's not? And I was thinking we could sneak into the sex dungeon attached to my hotel room after we eat to do some hard drugs. Darn. Looks like I'll have to rethink that plan. I think we all have a couple of skeletons in our closets, but I'll take your word for it. Space travel and intergalactic adventures aren't really my thing, sorry. As pleased as I always am to see Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto on my screen, Star Trek isn't the only place I can get my daily dose of eye candy. But, see, that would backfire on you. If I admitted to that, I'd just end up with more cheesecake.

Blaine: That is unfortunately true. Disney is good at keeping the scandals out of the press when you're working for them but the second that you're done you're free game. Oh, Kurt. I really hope that you're joking... It's from Star Trek. They say it at the beginning of every episode. That's something that everybody should know. I like romance but after so many years it's somewhat ruined. Assholes who've sold stories to the press, who've taken pictures of me and then 'leaked' them. I'd like to trust but it's hard. I'm sure that you understand. I'm not picky on dinner. Anything is fine, really, but I'll be sure to pick up dessert. Cheesecake it is. I know a great place.

Kurt: Even growing up in the public eye because of my mom, the press never seemed as passionate about my "corruption" or "fall from grace" as they are with anyone who's even slightly associated themselves with Disney. I'm not joking. Star Trek has just never been something on my to-watch list. I don't know if I'd say romance has been ruined for me, but I'm aware it's more of a fantasy than a reasonable possibility at this point in my life. I'll order a couple of things so that we have choices. I'm holding you to that; I have very high cheesecake standards. ;)

Blaine: There's only been a few unfortunate scandals that have resulted in me being more careful of what I trust people with. Oh, well then that's okay. Uncharted territory, to boldly go where no man has gone before. Sorry, my inner dork had to shine through. I always wanted serial monogamy though which is unfortunate since nobody really cared about that. It's always about rising up the ladder of fame and I've never been interested in stepping on people to get there. Well... how about I bring some dessert then and we can get dinner from room service? What's your favorite? I feel like it would be weird to google that.

Kurt: I bet they're even more excited for scandals involving you, with your Disney Channel days and all. I'd chance a guess at where that quote is from, but I'm pretty sure it's from one of the "Star" franchises, and I've never seen them, but people seem to get defensive when you imply Wars and Trek are interchangeable. I'm by far a romantic at heart, even when it's pretty hard to be. I've always wanted to be considered good at what I do because I am, not because what I'm actually good at is using people. It's not hard to not use people if you have enough reserve, but it's impossible to tell who's using you sometimes. And constant trust issues does not a healthy monogamous relationship make, unfortunately. That works. I can order the room service before you get here so we don't have to wait. Do you have a preference as to what we have? As for dessert, the answer is always cheesecake.

Blaine: I would hope you wouldn't do that. I mean, you've never really been the type to have your face plastered all over the tabloids... Not with anything that seemed truthful at least. I don't either! I hope I didn't give that impression. I mean... it's happened before but it's not as if I do this regularly. I guess we can see what happens? Okay, tonight it is. I'll meet you at your hotel. Should I bring dinner or anything? Dessert?

Kurt: I wouldn't, but from what I've seen, there are people who would. It takes a lot of work to keep them from starting rumors, but I'm sure you know that since I haven't seen too many scandals involving you either. No, no, I wasn't saying you gave me that impression. I'm just saying that random hook-ups aren't something I make a habit of and seeing said person again on purpose is even rarer, so I'm warning you this isn't the most charted territory for me. And I wouldn't have judged you (much) even if I'd gotten that impression. It's not like serial monogamy is practical in this industry. I'll never turn down dinner, but if you don't feel like getting something, there's always room service.

Blaine: I'm glad that we're on the same page. I love my fans but my private life is meant to remain private. If they found out about what happened between us... And even that we're texting now to meet up? We'd never hear the end of it. No, I remember it but it still could've been a one-night stand. There's no guarantee that we'd see each other again, especially in such an intimate setting. I can meet you there, then? Tonight? Or tomorrow? Whichever is most convenient to you.

Kurt: It's good we can agree there's a line there and neither of us is going to be announcing what happened all over social media or anything. To be honest, I don't frequently do one night stands, so this and the etiquette surrounding it aren't my areas of expertise. I assure you that despite the intimate setting, it can remain strictly casual if that's what you want. Tonight would be better if you're free, too, in order to avoid any previously unplanned engagements getting in the way.

Blaine: Yeah, they would. And I may only be speaking for myself but it's not exactly something that I want plastered all over the headlines. I didn't even think about leaving together... and the fact that we started kissing in the limo. Well, I guess we're lucky it's not a headline already. Nowhere else as guaranteed as that. As long as it doesn't make you uncomfortable or anything for me to come there.

Kurt: I like as much as possible of what I do in my personal life to remain just that: personal. So we're on the same page there. Not that I regret what we did necessarily; it's just not anyone else's business. That sounds like our best option, then. We slept with each other within a few hours of really meeting and I don't know about you, but I was drunk, but not drunk enough to forget much of it. I don't know if there's space for me to be uncomfortable with you just being in my hotel room after that.

Blaine: Okay. I'm glad that it is since I had a moment of panic thinking that I was sending a message to somebody else who might think that we were the Blaine and Kurt that we are and then assume that we'd slept together. I would love to meet up again sometime. I'm leaving in two days so it would have to be soon though. Any ideas on places we could meet in private?

Kurt: The tabloids would have had a field day with that one, wouldn't they? Not to mention, we already took a big enough risk leaving the party together. I would have waited for you to wake up to avoid the risk if I hadn't had a meeting to get to. I don't think anyone knows what hotel I'm staying at since they weren't tipped off because I didn't come back to my room last night. Unless you know somewhere else that's guaranteed to be private?

Blaine: Hi... Is this Kurt? It's Blaine. I hope that when you left your number it was for actual use and not just in case you had left something in my hotel room. You didn't by the way. Leave anything. Anyway, hello. I'm not sure what your schedule looks like but I'd love to get a chance to get to know you. Last night was amazing, in the least awkward way that I can say that.

Kurt: It is. Don't worry. I double checked everything I had, so it was definitely so there'd be a chance last night wouldn't be the last we'd hear from each other. I'm in town for a few more days, so I'd like that if you have any free time yourself. Maybe we could meet up under less inebriated conditions this time? I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did.
