Also, I'm really sorry if I missed any of you. It has been a shamefully long amount of time since I checked.

Sarahamanda Klaine: I'm glad you liked it- that you thought it was good. I promise I'll try my best to update soon.

Rori Potter: I'm sorry that this probably wasn't soon enough. Enjoy the chapter all the same :)

To say that Kurt was antsy all day on Friday would be the biggest understatement in the history of understatements. It was the day where he was finally going to have his first date with Blaine, the boy who was quickly becoming the most important person in his life.

He texted Wes and David all throughout the entire day and they tried to keep him calm but after a certain point they realized it was futile, so they just kept reminding him to breathe. If Kurt were being honest, getting harassed was only half the issue. The other half was that he was afraid that the date was going to go horrible and Blaine would realize he didn't like him after all and then he'd have ruined everything.

He knew it was irrational- and Wes and David called him insane for thinking such crap. It was clear that they cared about each other- and when you care about someone that much, something like one bad date ("not that we're saying its going to happen!") is going to undo all those feelings. Kurt was still freaking out. Lucky for him, once Glee rolled around and Kurt saw Blaine sitting there, smiling at him he felt his nerves calm...to a more reasonable level anyway.

"Hey B." He greeted before taking the seat next to Blaine.

"Hey Kurt." He said, in return, leaning over to press a soft kiss to his cheek. Both boys blushed red at the small act of affection but both secretly wanted more.

"You ready for tonight?" Blaine asked softly using the cover of Rachel and Santana bickering over a solo as cover. Also, if Blaine were being entirely honest, he hoped to hear that Kurt was nervous as well.

"Y-Yeah." He squeaked in reply, blushing a deeper red at how his nerves made his voice go even higher.

Blaine tried not to smile when he read, appropriately so, into Kurt's reaction that he really wasn't the only one. It actually made him feel less nervous- or perhaps it helped him find a calmness inside him.

"Hey, Kurt." He murmured quietly, their heads tilted close to each other's. "I like you. You don't have to be worry about tonight. It's dinner and then playing in the park. You can even laugh at me when I revert to being six years old again at the sight of swings."

That earned Blaine a laugh from Kurt and he could see some of the tension leave him. They settled into quiet banter about Blaine's desire to play on the playground, until the rehearsal started. The pair relaxed more as there was other things to focus on now but once it was over and they had to head home together, the nerves came back with a vengeance.

It was because they both realized what was at stake. They had both had friends that had nasty messy breakups and just seeing each other in the halls was awkward. They were going to be living together for the forseeable future. If they screwed this up...

When they got back to the house they parted ways to each go to their own rooms, hurriedly agreeing to stay there until they were ready to leave for their seven o'clock reservation.

"Kurt, I'm done." Wes said with a heavy sigh.

"But-"

"No. I'm done it's six fifteen and you have to leave for the restaurant soon and I know you've been ready since you called me an hour ago."

"But-"

"Kurt." Wes said, his voice coming out a little harder. He needed to put a stop to this before it got out of hand. "You can't change things now. You're not moving out and you like each other. You need to go out and have fun. This is Blaine- the guy who's making you feel this crazy. If he's half the guy you say he is then you'll be fine."

"I'm being ridiculous aren't I?" Kurt said biting his lips.

"Yes, yes you are. Now go have fun on your date."

"Bye Wes." Kurt said softly. "Thank you."

"You're welcome Kurt." He replied before they both hung up.

Kurt heaved a sigh before he heard a soft knocking at his door. He took a deep breath and then another before he opened the door to find Blaine looking a nervous excited and positively handsome.

"Hi..." He said, his eyes taking in the sight of his boyfriend. His boyfriend. That's when something shifted in him. They were dating and this wasn't some stupid random blind date. This was his boyfriend and Wes was right. This was Blaine.

"Hi. Ready?" He asked softly and when Kurt nodded, he offered an elbow out for him to take. Kurt blushed and accepted it as they made their way out to the car.

They climbed into the car, plugging in Kurt's playlist, singing along as they drove. It helped them both realize that even though it was a date, they really weren't doing anything different. They sat in the car for a long moment staring at the restaurant when they got there.

"You nervous too?" Blaine asked so softly, Kurt thought he had been making things up.

"Yeah. I am." He said taking Blaine's hand and giving it a soft squeeze. "No matter what they say or do, it doesn't change that we're better than them and more fabulous and when the time comes, we'll be living it up in New York and they'll be- what do you guys call them?"

"Lima losers." Blaine replied. "I thought I was supposed to be making you feel better." He said looking over at him.

"I suppose- but there's nothing wrong with me helping you feel better too." Kurt said, bringing their linked hands up for a kiss.

Blaine leaned forward and kissed Kurt softly, and it almost made them both decide to skip dinner but they were going to have a date and if they weren't going to let each other's fears and the fear of being harassed stop them, they certainly weren't going to let their desire to kiss stop them from going in.

"Let's go." Blaine said before he hopped of the car and ran over to get Kurt's door for him. Yeah he definitely wasn't going to worry about tonight anymore.

Their dinner went without a hitch. Which was a surprise to them both but a welcomed one. The waitress who looked to be their age, took in their joined hands which they promptly dropped as if they had been burned, but she gave them a shy smile and took them to a booth in the back. 'For a bit of privacy' she said before giving them their menus with a wink. They each breathed easier and took each other's hands over the table, hidden from the rest of the restaurant.

They talked about music and clothing and what life would be like in New York. They played footsie and shared bites of each other's food. They talked about what school was like now and Kurt told Blaine endless stories about the antics of his friends and the Warblers. Blaine told him stories too, of the antics and drama in glee club practice. Before they knew it was time to pay the check- on Blaine with agreement Kurt would pay next time, before they were leaving the restaurant having left the waitress a very large tip for her kindness and tolerance.

"Time to go to the park?" Blaine asked when they climbed into the park. Kurt laughed at how he could almost see Blaine vibrating with excitement.

"You're the driver- by all means." Kurt said, gesturing to the windshield.

"I want you to be okay with going." Blaine said giving him a small pout. Kurt gave him a little kiss- it was exhilarating how he did that, could that without a thought.

"It's okay. I know how much you're looking forward to our walk in the park." He said.

Blaine gave his hand a squeeze as they drove quickly to the park. They parked and it was still a little light out so there a few other cars in the parking lot. Blaine rushed out of the car, remembering at the last moment to let Kurt out of the car. It spoke of a repeated action and it made Kurt smile wide.

Blaine was hurrying him along like an puppy who was trying to get his owner to come into the backyard so they can play fetch. Kurt let himself get dragged until they arrived to the playground equipment, Blaine heading straight for the swings. Blaine stood by his, clearly waiting for Kurt to join him on the swing next to him.

"Come on Kurt!" He called, shifting from foot to foot. Kurt laughed under his breath and settled into the swing next to him. Blaine moved to stand behind him, telling him to hold on, before he started pulling the swing back and letting him go, giving him a few pushes when he came back to him.

"Come on Blaine, swing with me." Kurt called when he gained enough momentum, forgetting for a moment, just how silly he had found Blaine minutes earlier.

Blaine sat on the swing starting slow, just so he could better observe the joy on Kurt's face. He wondered how long it had been since Kurt had been just...free. They sat and swung back and forth until they were tired and it was dark. They were holding hands, kicking off the ground so they could swing together, letting momentum carry them until they had stopped before doing it again.

"We should go." Kurt said softly, hating the quiet contentment that had settled over them both. It was dark and he knew the longer they stayed out, the greater the chance of the older kids coming to us the park for more adult reasons.

"Did you have fun?" Blaine asked as they wound their way back to the car. It wasn't the most exciting first date but as the car was in the sight, he couldn't have asked for more. They had gotten through the night without being harassed and that meant the world.

"I had a ton of fun." Kurt said as they got into the car. Blaine kissed his nose, earning him a giggle before they headed back to the house, the same contented silence falling over them.

When they reached the house again, they greeted Blaine's father in his easy chair and Carol on the couch sowing something. They asked them about their night before they headed down to Blaine's room, his father insisting that they leave the door open.

Burt heard their laughter echoing down the stairs and it warmed his heart. Carol gave him a smile and they turned the TV up a little louder when the music started up. When Burt got up to tell the boys he was going to bed, so they should turn the music down, he received no reply. When he walked down a few steps, he found the boys snuggled up together, dozing softly. He smiled wide and shushed Carol when she came to see what was taking him so long.

"They look so adorable." She said quietly as she walked down the few remaining steps to cover them up with a blanket. Blaine huffed in his sleep and Kurt pulled him closer and she had to stop the 'awww' that arose to her lips.

Burt beckoned her away by holding out a hand for her. "They look happy and peaceful. They deserve it."

"That they do. Now come on, let's go get our snuggle on." She replied and Burt let out a soft laugh. She made him happy and it was about time they were both this easily happy.

A/N: Let me know what you thought, what you want to see our boys do next. I have thoughts but I wanna know what you think.
