“Kidding, Blaine. Kidding,” he nodded. Leaning in to peck him on the lips he shook his head whilst laughing. Sebastian looked down and nodded. This was one of the very few times that anyone had expressed any compassion to him. Of course his parents had but moments with them were few and far in between. They worked a lot and he was quite the lone wolf. “Yes, that was extremely corny but I loved it,” he smiled.

Looking over to the wall and back at Blaine he raised an eyebrow. “How ‘bout we get a few pillows and lay down and talk by the fireplace? I’m a bit cold and well, my neck hurts like a motherfucker sooooo…” he chuckled. The thought of the heat on his back was almost paradisal. 

Blaine felt his cheeks explode with heat at the peck.  It was such a small gesture that lasted a millisecond but held so much affection inside it that he had to look down between them before he could properly catch a breath.  Only after he was sure he was breathing right did Blaine look up and meet Sebastian’s green eyes that always pinched together in the sweetest way when he smiled like that.  Did the other boy have any idea how innocent he could look when he was stripped bare of all the snark and cannon fodder sarcasm or perverted comments?  No.

Thing was?  Blaine didn’t dare tell him because he knew that if he ever did?  He might not ever get to see that Sebastian again.  Blaine laughed and shrugged in a small streak of embarrassment that faded into a hum.  “I’m glad you did.  I can be pretty corny if you haven’t noticed,” his nose scrunched.  Taking in a slow breath as he looked at the fireplace–Blaine hesitated for only a moment before he brushed his palms against his knees and stood.  “Sure. Let me go get pillows and blankets from my room.  You can start the fire if you want. Everything’s right there.”  Off he went after a backwards step or two and a pivot on bare feet.
