Author's note:

Alright, so I had this finished on Friday...and then I changed the last few scenes when I realized that I really didn't like parts of it. I hope you all like the conclusion to this story and I'd like to thank everyone that has taken the time to read it because you guys are awesome.

At any rate, Enjoy.


Part Four: Future

The next few months were surprisingly easy. Of course they fought, and there were times when they didn't speak to each other for days, but for the most part everything just flowed. Sebastian didn't seem to expect too much from Kurt. He was happy with their dates, their hang out nights, and even happy to tag along when Pamela Lansbury had a gig or when Kurt needed moral support at an audition. Kurt for his part tried to be as supportive right back.

Over the Holidays Kurt managed to take Sebastian home with him and he was surprised when his dad quickly got over everything he'd heard about Sebastian just a few years before and he was open to just getting to know him.

Getting back to New York and continuing on with their perspective schools and the normal routines they'd gotten used to had been easy and so time went on and things were well right through the end of the Spring semester and Kurt was pleasantly surprised that no problems had arisen between them that weren't hard to solve.

Mostly, though, Kurt's life had been pleasantly simple because he wasn't dealing with the drama of any of his friends. Rachel had settled into her role in McKinley and Kurt didn't talk to her as often because he didn't have the time and because Rachel still didn't seem to understand what Kurt saw in Sebastian and she wasn't willing to change her mind. It hurt Kurt to think about his best friend not being able to accept his choices when he had gone along with all of Rachel's decisions even when they had been wrong.

"Tomorrow is my last final," Kurt told Sebastian, "and then I was thinking that I could take a week to relax before I figured out what I'm doing this summer."

Sebastian who had finished his finals a few days before and had been helping Kurt study and practice for his last finals was stretched out on the floor next to the couch in Kurt's loft.

"I was thinking," Sebastian said, "that we would stay in New York and just enjoy the time off of school. Unless you had other plans."

Kurt hadn't been sure about his plans. A part of him had wanted to go back to Ohio to spend some time with his family, but the other part of him that didn't want to deal with Rachel or the possibility of running into Blaine. He was sure that Blaine was aware of Kurt's relationship with Sebastian, but he didn't know what would happen if they saw each other again. Kurt did know that Blaine and Karofsky were no longer together, having run into David during Christmas and from Rachel who still didn't shy away from sharing any gossip with him.

"I mean," Sebastian continued when Kurt didn't respond, "Elliott and Dani are still going to be around and your band is still doing pretty well. The summer might be a good time to focus on that."

Kurt nodded. "I think that you make a good point," he said.

"I was also thinking," Sebastian said, "that it's time you move out of this place."

Kurt hadn't seen that coming. "What?" he asked, "but this is the perfect space for band practice and I'm never going to find another place with this much floor space."

"Well," Sebastian said and he seemed to be cautious about what he said, "what if you moved in with me? Alternatively I could move in with you, but the commute from here to Columbia is not a fun one and I know my place is closer to NYADA too."

Kurt turned his face towards Sebastian. "You want us to move in together?"

It was the last thing that Kurt had expected, especially for it to come from Sebastian. It had taken him a full two months before he let Kurt see his apartment and even after he'd seen it Sebastian had been reluctant to spend a lot of time there with Kurt. It had only been recently that they'd even begun spending the night at his place. Sebastian did have a point about its location. Sebastian was in Manhattan in one of the nicer apartments that Kurt had seen. It was spacious and decorated elegantly in a way that reminded Kurt of Sebastian's parents' house in Ohio.

"I sleep over here half my week and you're at my place the other half," Sebastian said, "it only makes sense."

"I'll think about it."

He moved in two weeks into the summer after the air conditioning in the loft stopped working and the super took too long to fix it, but that was only an excuse because he spent those weeks packing things up.

Kurt had concerns about moving in with Sebastian, stemming from his time with Blaine. He didn't want to demand too much space from Sebastian, or to not have any space of his own in his apartment. His worries were gone when Sebastian showed him how he'd converted the extra room into a closet for Kurt to store all of his clothes.

"You knew I was going to say yes," Kurt accused him while he hung up his clothes.

"I hoped," Sebastian said and kissed the corner of his mouth, "but even if you didn't now, I figured that at some point you would."

Kurt wrapped his arms around Sebastian's neck, he was surprised by how sure Sebastian was about them, but he was also happy to know that it wasn't only him that was taking their relationship seriously.


A year later, Kurt was still happy. He was planning his last year at NYADA and he was happy. Under his belt he had a couple of minor roles in Off-Off Broadway productions. He had participated in plenty of other things at NYADA, adding anything he could to his resume before his graduation and happy to have someone that believed in him and supported him and that pushed him when Kurt didn't think he was good enough.

He and Sebastian were better than ever after overcoming a few bumps in the road like both of them forgetting the date of their anniversary – for which they argued because they thought their anniversary was two different dates – and Sebastian ignoring Valentine's Day completely because he'd never had to celebrate before. They even fought about Blaine a few times when Sebastian thought that Kurt wanted him to act more like his ex.

Insecurities rose up and were squished and Kurt had a moment of fear on what felt like the longest weekend of his life when he thought Sebastian was cheating on him when instead Sebastian had simply been trying to plan a romantic surprise that he wound up ruining instead.

Every hurdle they got through, and they were so together that even Rachel had to accept it though she still wasn't happy about it or friends with Sebastian. After two years of teaching at McKinley without even being a real teacher, she was adamant that she needed to go after her dreams again and Kurt was happy to see that she willing to fight for herself again and not settle for what was available to her. He wasn't too happy when she demanded that he let her stay with him and Sebastian.

"Rachel, we don't have the room," he tried to explain to her over the phone, "and I know you still don't get along with Sebastian. I don't think this is going to end well."

She sniffed. "If you were still with Blaine, you would have been happy to have me over. He's changed you, you know."

He didn't answer her, instead changing the subject, "if you're planning on staying long you may as well look for somewhere permanent. Sebastian and I don't have the room and we're both on our last years of school and we don't have the time to entertain friends."

"I still wish you hadn't moved out from our loft, Kurt, you would have room then."

He sighed.

A week later Rachel showed up on their doorstep with her bags and Kurt had no choice but to let her stay, making it clear that it was permanent. Having Rachel around was hard on Kurt and harder on Sebastian who couldn't stand not being able to have his space.

"I want her out of here," he hissed at Kurt one morning over breakfast, "she takes up the living room and keeps putting her vegetarian crap in our fridge not to mention the singing in the shower. She's the most inconsiderate house guest I have ever had and I have half a mind to get a hotel room and leave you here to deal with her except that I can't sleep unless you're next to me and I don't trust her enough to leave her here alone without one of us for the night."

Kurt would have found the entire thing hilarious if he didn't feel exactly the same way. Through some convincing, he managed to get Elliott to take her in, promising that he was trying to find her a place so she wouldn't be a bother to any of them.

After a while they all got used to having Rachel around, but it was lucky that she was busy trying to get any role she could get in on, because otherwise she would have been around longer. Despite the rumors of her flightiness, her talent made producers listen to her. Kurt knew it would only be time before she was back on her feet and on her way to becoming a star. In the meanwhile Kurt worried about everything he had to still do to graduate.


The first time Kurt saw Blaine again was unexpected.

Rachel's determination and the fact that she pushed and pushed until she got exactly what she wanted landed her another role on Broadway. It wasn't the main character, but a smaller supporting role. Kurt didn't resent his friend her wins and everything that just seemed to come to her, but this time and this time only, Kurt let himself think about how much harder everything was for him.

"Here's the thing," Sebastian said when Kurt told him how he was feeling, "when you get something and I know you will because you're amazing, it will be because you deserve it and because you've worked hard at it. It won't be because you stalked the director until he heard you sing."

It was moments like those, when Kurt could actually speak about his feelings and know that he wouldn't be reprimanded or in some way made to feel guilty for not being able to help his feelings, those were the moments when he felt like Sebastian understood him better than anyone else in his life save for his dad.

Rachel's opening night, a Tuesday, they found themselves walking in with a crowd and being shown to their seats, and it was only when Kurt glanced down the aisle that he realized Blaine was sitting with Tina and Sam and someone that he didn't recognize and their seats were right next to them.

"Kurt?" Sebastian asked when Kurt stopped.

"Blaine's here," he whispered back.

Sebastian scoffed. "Of course he is."

The last that Kurt had heard about Blaine was that he was going to Ohio State. Somehow, he hadn't imagined that Rachel would invite him to her opening night or that she hadn't thought to warn him.

The part of Kurt that cared about Rachel and knew she'd been busy wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt by thinking that maybe she had actually forgotten, but the part of Kurt that knew Rachel to go out of her way to get her way thought that she had done it on purpose.

"We can leave," Sebastian said, "if you want we can leave."

Kurt grabbed Sebastian's hand. "I hope he doesn't have the wrong idea, but from me you have nothing to worry about. I love you."

"Love you too," Sebastian said, but Kurt could tell that he was still worried.

Kurt squeezed his hand and then followed him to their seats.

"Kurt," Tina said and got up to hug him.

"Hey, man," Sam said nodding at Kurt.

"And of course, you've met Sebastian," Kurt said.

Sebastian nodded at them as he took his seat. Blaine had yet to speak, but he nodded at Sebastian as well and Kurt thought that it was a conceding nod, as if he were showing his acceptance of Sebastian being there with Kurt.

"And I guess you haven't met Blaine's new boyfriend, Conner?" Tina said motioning to the man that sat next to Blaine.

He was handsome, about Blaine's height with sandy blond hair and brown eyes.

"Hi," he said, "it's always nice to meet Blaine's friends."

"Nice to meet you too," Kurt said genuinely.

Rachel had failed to mention that Blaine had a new boyfriend, but Kurt didn't mind not having that piece of information. It changed nothing for him. As they settled down into their seats, Kurt turned towards Sebastian. He knew it was a bit rude, but making conversation with his high school friends who wouldn't include Sebastian wasn't important to him.

"Do anything crazy exciting today?" Sebastian asked.

Kurt grinned at him. "Nope. I had a couple of auditions. One of them felt like it went well. But that's the usual for me."

Sebastian nodded. "Well, considering we're skipping dinner for this, I was thinking that we could go to get a bite and then head home and make your day more exciting."

"Oh, yeah?" Kurt said.

He was still tense and he knew that Sebastian could tell, but he was glad for how hard he was trying to take Kurt's mind off of Kurt.

"Yeah, I'm going to do some crazy things to you tonight, Kurt Hummel, you don't even know."

Kurt leaned his head against Sebastian's, "I can only imagine," he whispered.

The show went well and during intermission Kurt got talking to Sam who informed him that he was going to be moving to L.A. because he and Mercedes were getting back together.

"We've been talking a lot," he said, "and her life is there. I haven't figured out what I want to do exactly, but I think it might work with her this time."

Kurt talked to Mercedes sporadically. She was always so busy that it was hard to keep up with her, but he was happy for how successful she'd become of late.

"I was actually trying to convince Blaine that he should come with me," Sam said with a grin, "after all, Conner is going to be moving out to L.A. soon, it only makes sense. He's an actor too."

"And what do you think you'll be doing out there?" Sebastian asked suddenly.

Sam glanced at him, surprised that Sebastian had been listening to their conversation.

"I was a model for a while," Sam said, "and I might pick that up again or stick to music. No plans yet, whatever works out.

After the show, Kurt politely excused himself and Sebastian from going out to dinner with Tina, Sam, Blaine, and Conner. He texted Rachel in congratulations and they headed away from the theater and the stage door where a crowd had already gathered.

It was as they were about the cross the street that Blaine came running after them.

"Kurt!" He yelled, "Sebastian! Wait up!"

They turned and Blaine came to a stop right in front of them. "Sorry," he said, "I just knew that if I didn't do this right now I wouldn't get a chance to do it ever again. Sam's right, you know, I should move to L.A. and when I'm doing with school I think I will and…well, that's beside the point."

People were giving them strange looks and having to walk around them, so Kurt nudged Sebastian to move and Blaine moved with them so they were closer to the building and away from the crowds of walking people.

"I just," Blaine said, "I wanted to apologize. I've been going to a psychiatrist for a little while now and I just needed you to know, Kurt, that I'm sorry for how things ended with us and how much I hurt you with how I dealt with it. I've been wanting to do this for a while, but for a long time I was still really mad at you, and mad that you actually moved on. So, I just wanted to say I'm sorry and that I'm happy for you. For both of you."

Kurt couldn't help it, but when he realized that Blaine was crying, he threw his arms about him and hugged him tightly, pulling back a few seconds later.

"Thank you," he said and then grabbed Sebastian's hand, squeezing it.

Blaine nodded. "I guess I'll see you around."

After Blaine walked away, Kurt turned his head towards Sebastian, "So, that was that, then," he said.

Sebastian nodded, and he pulled Kurt against him. "I guess so," he said leaning down to kiss Kurt, "I always thought if he ever came back into our lives that I would have to fight him for your or something so that was just surprisingly easy."

"Well, I think you should know that you would have won when it came to it. I will care about Blaine because he was my first love but you are the love of my life, Bas, and there's nothing that can change that."


A few months later, Kurt finally landed a big role. It was a new show that wouldn't actually make it to the stage for another year, so Kurt kept auditioning taking on smaller roles in off-Broadway shows. He also took on a few more gigs with Pamela Lansbury, but even Kurt could admit that the band was turning into more of a hobby for him. Dani and Elliott were also getting busier and busier with their own stuff and Kurt was just waiting for one of them to suggest that they end it.

"I have big news," he told Sebastian over the phone the day he got the call from the producers of the show.

"Oh, really," Sebastian said, "well, I'll try to get home early if that's the case."

Kurt grinned, "I look forward to it. And anything happening on your end?"

"Lots of reading and studying I'm afraid."

"Are you sure you want to do the whole lawyer thing? Sounds boring."

He heard Sebastian sigh. "Yes. I do and really I do find it interesting. It's just a lot."

Kurt had been watching Sebastian drown in his studies from the moment that September came upon them. He'd gotten a glance at the five tomes that made up his textbooks and felt anxious just looking at them, but Sebastian had been excited somehow.

"Well, how about I plan a night in for the both of us to wind down and relax. It will be the perfect celebration."

"Sounds good," Sebastian said.

Kurt had a lot to do: errands and other little things that had to get done before he went in for a short dance practice. NYADA had taught Kurt the importance of always keeping his skills up and so even though he was out of NYADA, he knew that he had to keep working on things like his dance moves and his voice.

So, when he got home after getting everything done, Kurt only had enough time to set up his and Sebastian's night by the time that Sebastian was opened the door. He had their dinner ready, take out from their favorite Chinese place. And when Sebastian stepped inside, Kurt was opening up a bottle of champagne.

Sebastian dropped his things on their sofa and then walked over to Kurt and wrapped his arms around him from behind.

"Hi," Kurt said and learned back into the hold.

"So," Sebastian said, "what are your news?"

"I got a part," Kurt said, "I got THE part."

He set down the bottle when Sebastian turned him around, a giddy grin and excitement on his face. "You did," he said, "I knew you would. Which part?"

Kurt reached for his face and kissed him and then he jumped into a rant on the role he'd gotten, talking about the songs he'd heard so far and how the story still wasn't even done yet.

"It's so early in the process, but it's definitely going to Broadway and I already gave them my word. I'm going to be signing all the paperwork tomorrow. This is so exciting. It's my dream coming true."

Sebastian hugged him tightly. "I love you so much and I can't wait until I'm in the front row watching you up on that stage showing everyone how amazing you are."

Kurt could feel the pride in Sebastian's voice, and he felt like he was falling even more in love with him the more he thought about how excited Sebastian was for him.

"And now," Kurt said, "I think food and some of the bubbly."

Sebastian changed into sweats before they sat down on the sofa and Kurt had their food ready on the coffee table.

"I was thinking cuddling and whatever movie you want to watch," Kurt said, "and maybe we end the night with a bath."

"Sounds like a plan," Sebastian said and he lifted his glass towards Kurt, "I am so proud of you."

Kurt set up the tv, pulling up their Netflix account and they flipped through the different titles until they both agreed on one.

By the time they had finished eating, Sebastian had sprawled himself out on the sofa and Kurt was cuddled up to him. This was Kurt's favorite way to end his nights and apart from having sex with Sebastian, being held by him felt like the most intimate thing in the world. He was comfortable and safe and he felt like he could do anything. It was a feeling that he never wanted to let go and that he hoped would always be a part of him.

"In this moment," he whispered to Sebastian, "I feel like everything is going right."

"You know, only one thing could make it better."

Kurt frowned and he sat up so he could look at Sebastian. "Better?" He asked and his heart beat in anticipation.

"Well, you could be kissing me and that would make this a whole lot better."

"Oh," Kurt said, "well, since you asked."

He was surprised by how his mind had gone straight to the possibility of Sebastian proposing to him. It had been stupid and since when had his mind gone back to marriage? The thought of being that committed to Sebastian wasn't scary in any way, but suddenly he had to wonder if Sebastian even wanted marriage. Then, he thought about how he didn't really want to get married yet, not when Sebastian was still in school and he was just starting to make his start on Broadway.

Kurt let himself get lost to Sebastian's kiss and he pushed all thoughts about marriage away as he let his lips linger on Sebastian's.


"Love you," Sebastian said and kissed Kurt, "and I will see you later tonight. You'll be amazing, don't worry about it."

It was his opening night. A year and a half of workshops and script changes and songs that were learned and then dropped or changed until they were almost not the same songs at all and everything was falling into place. Previews had gone well, and finally the night Kurt had been waiting for was upon him. His opening night.

"Now, I want you to get some rest and prepare yourself for everyone to figure out how amazing you are."

Sebastian kissed him on the forehead and Kurt closed his eyes when he felt Sebastian caress his cheek. He leaned into it for a moment until Sebastian pulled away.

"See you later," Kurt said, "I'll leave your ticket at the box office."

Sebastian nodded.

Kurt spent his morning relaxing just like Sebastian had told him to. He wasn't expected at the theater for a few more hours and so he relaxed in his and Sebastian's bed his ipad held in front of him as he read through e-mails and checked his Facebook page.

The nerves that he would have thought to be present before his first Broadway show were almost non-existent. The whole ordeal did make him think about Rachel's debut in Funny Girl and how much they had all had to just walk on eggshells around her due to all her insecurities. Somehow, Kurt just knew that he could do it. He knew he was good enough and he was sure that he wouldn't forget any of his lines or even the songs.

His dad and Carole were coming to see him, but Kurt had managed to convince them to leave him alone for the day. It had been Sebastian's idea that Kurt not be bothered in the hours before his Broadway debut claiming that Kurt's friends would just make things worse if they weren't kept away.

So far Kurt knew that Elliott, Dani, Santana and Brittany were coming along with Rachel who was taking a day off her own show to be there for him. Sam and Tina had promised to try and make it and Kurt had even sent Blaine and Conner an invitation. In addition to them, Kurt had invited Quinn and Puck and Artie but all three hadn't committed to anything.

Later that night, he was surprised when they all showed up.

His show was a hit, and it was when he was standing on the stage with all the other actors looking out at every filled seat, that he knew that this was exactly what he was meant for and that all the hard work and all the disappointment every time he didn't get a role had been so that he could get the impact of what it meant to finally achieve what he'd wanted.

His dad and Carole were the first to arrive at his dressing room.

"You were amazing, sweetie," Carole said as she hugged Kurt tightly.

His dad hugged him next. "For a while there I thought you wouldn't have your dreams come true, but they certainly have and I am so proud of you, kiddo."

"And just so you know," Carole added, "we will be coming to watch you every night that we can before we go back to Ohio.

Before anything else could be said Rachel with Sam, Tina, Dani, Elliott, and Blaine following behind her were in the room, crowding into the somewhat small room and all of them trying to talk at once. Rachel won over all of them, so she hugged Kurt tightly, kissing him on each cheek.

"Isn't it amazing?" She asked, "the feeling of being up there and knowing people are actually watching and paying attention to you? You know for me it's like a drug. I'm so happy I won't be the only one to know what it feels like among us. We have so much to talk about, Kurt, and you know I also do have a few tips on where you could improve and—"

Kurt was saved by Tina and Sam who each pulled Rachel away. Elliott hugged Kurt next and then Dani and they each kept their congratulations short and then suddenly Blaine was in front of him.

"You really were great," he told Kurt, "I always knew you could do it. Cooper sends his love and a book of his advice which I will not give to you because it's not worth your time and Conner told me to tell you he will come watch it soon when he's in New York next."

"Thank you," Kurt said and accepted Blaine's hug.

After he pulled away, he saw his dad and Carole ushering a few of his friends out and he smiled gratefully at them. He couldn't help but wonder for a moment where Sebastian had gone, but he knew that his boyfriend had to be somewhere. After all, he'd seen Sebastian before the show and he'd been promised an even more awesome night after his debut.

Just as he was going to ask if any of them had seen him, Sebastian appeared and Kurt rushed towards him.

"You'd think I was the one that just spent a couple of hours traipsing about on a stage," he said.

"Traipsing," Rachel said and Kurt could tell that she wasn't happy with the word.

Kurt, though, knew it was in jest. He kissed Sebastian quickly and let Sebastian hug him close.

"You were amazing, Kurt, so good. Not that I ever doubted that."

After a few more minutes, his friends all said their goodbyes, promising that they would try and see him again before they left New York. Kurt would have gone out with them to celebrate, but the celebration that night was meant for the people that had been involved in making the musical the success it was and Kurt knew he couldn't skip it even for his friends. His dad and Carole were coming with him as was Sebastian and Kurt was looking forward to the night and to finally introducing some of his best friends in the cast and crew to his family.

"Now, I have to really get changed," Kurt said, "and I will try to be quick."

A few hours later found Kurt on Sebastian's arm walking around a room full of people. His dad and Carole had only stayed a couple of hours before they claimed to be too tired to keep partying. Kurt had helped them get into one of the town cars that would leave them at their hotel.

"So," Sebastian said, "I think we have done a bit of talking with everyone."

Kurt nodded and leaned into his shoulder tiredly. "I know, I know…and the Times review won't even be up for a few more hours but I'm not going to sleep even if we go home."

Sebastian steered him towards a couple of chairs. "Do we have to stay here though?"

The party was at a club of all places. It had been a good choice, overall, especially since it was an open bar and except for a few instances most of the music was not show tunes.

"No," Kurt said, "and I think I've made enough of an appearance. I'll just have to say goodbye to a few people. You don't even have to come with me. How about you get our coats and meet me at the door?"

It took him about ten minutes to tear himself away from his drunk cast mates who all catcalled him as he walked away towards Sebastian who they all referred to as Kurt's dreamboat boyfriends.

"Alright," Kurt said, "let's go, and you better have a plan for distracting me."

"I do," Sebastian said, winked at him and then took his hand.

When they got back to the apartment, Kurt wasn't expecting Sebastian to step in front of their door.

"Now," Sebastian said, "there is no pressure. I want you to understand that."

Kurt stared at him, only a little surprised. "Sebastian, what? What are you talking about?"

But all Sebastian did was press a finger to Kurt's lips and then he opened their door and took Kurt's hands, leading him inside where numerous candles lit up their living room. Kurt gasped, glancing around in surprise and then he turned his face towards Sebastian again.

"Were you to burn our place of living down or trying to be romantic?"

Sebastian laughed and moved forward to kiss Kurt who returned the kiss eagerly. When Sebastian pulled back, he grabbed Kurt's hands again, pulling him further into the room and that was when Kurt noticed that rose petals were scattered around the room.

"Bas, what is all this?" Kurt asked.

"This is what we call setting the scene."

"Really, now," Kurt said, "were you trying to seduce me? I mean, that was the distraction I had in mind but I had hoped that you knew all about how way more willing I was."

Sebastian gave him a reprimanding look and Kurt couldn't help but laugh.

"Okay," he said, "okay, I'll be good now."

"You've killed the mood," Sebastian said and shook his head, "this is definitely not happening tonight anymore."

Kurt stared after him as he started backing away towards their bedroom, following the trail of roses and more candles which Kurt really thought were too dangerous to keep on. As he followed, he blew them out. For all his joking and his contrariness, Kurt felt nervous as he walked after Sebastian, far more than he'd felt all day. He took a deep breath before he stepped inside their bedroom.

Sebastian was down on one knee, but the ring box wasn't in his hands, and he looked up at Kurt with such fear and expectation in his eyes that Kurt just said, "Yes. You know it's yes. So, ask."

"Marry me?"

"Duh," Kurt said.

The last time he'd gotten proposed to, Kurt had felt like all control was out of his hands, and even though there was a ring hiding in one his shoes in his closet that was intended for Sebastian, it felt different somehow to have Sebastian do this within the walls of their home with no kind of expectation for Kurt to say yes and yet knowing that it wouldn't be expectation that would make Kurt of course say yes.

Kurt dropped to his knees in front of Sebastian who was still on the ground. "Where's my ring?"

Sebastian kissed him before he spoke, "as if you would have let me pick it out. Not to mention I figured you'd want it to match the one you got for me."

Kurt gaped at him. "When did you…"

"I know you," Sebastian said, "and the day you bought it you were so giddy but there was no reason and I just figured it out, really, you'd been hinting for weeks beforehand and then I thought maybe you would ask me. But you didn't. Which I realize now was probably because you've been so busy, but anyway, I took it upon myself because it doesn't matter who asks when it's what we both want. I'm ready when you are, if this engagement lasts a week, a month, or even ten years. You're what I want in any capacity. I love you, Kurt Hummel."

Kurt threw himself at Sebastian and they toppled to the ground, Sebastian letting out a huff as Kurt started to pepper his face with kisses. He felt content and happy and it seemed that this was the day when Kurt Hummel got everything he wanted, or rather when he knew that he didn't have to worry about his future because it was all looking up.

The End.
