Chapter 7

Blaine's POV~

*11 am*

"Are we almost done here? I have somewhere to be at 1." I wrote, handing the note to my doctor.We've been here since 9 am and I'm starting to get impatient. They've put me through 3 different monitors, 2 ultrasounds, and they still have one more test to run.

"Yep. This will take a few minutes and then we'll get the results soon."

Great. I better be out of here by 12.

*11:45*"Alright Blaine, we have good news. We are able to perform the surgery on you. We already talked it over with your father and he said he wants to talk to you about it first. We won't be able to perform it until you both sign off on it."

"I can get the surgery.." I said, astonished.He nodded his head.

"Thanks Doc, I'll be back soon." I said grabbing the papers from his hand and running out the door.

"Blaine, we need to talk about this." Dad held the board up when I got into the car.

"There's nothing to talk about. Come on, I need to be somewhere at 1. We'll talk the details over later tonight. I need to change my clothes. Let's go." I wrote throwing the board down into his lap and putting my seat belt on.

*12:45*

"I'll be back soon." I handed dad the whiteboard and threw my shoes on.

"We have to talk tonight." He wrote.

"Okay. Bye" I grabbed my keys and walked through the elevator doors, pressing the button for Ground Floor.

I walked out of the lobby and onto the side walk down the street. Passing the Chinese Corner store, I almost tripped over a dog. I continued down the sidewalk for 4 more blocks until I reached the coffee shop. Corner Cafe & Bakery. Out of all the cafes I've ever been, this will always be my favorite. No one tops there delicious Cronuts. It's a beautiful thing when you bite into them.

*buzz buzz*I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket."1 New Message"

Kurt: I think I'm here. I'm not really sure...

I turned around looking for him in the crowd.

Me: I think I see you. Look up and over towards the bench out front.

I looked back up to see Kurt staring back at me.I raised my hand up high and waved.He smiled and walked towards me, shoving his phone into his pocket.Man, his jeans were tight...

"Hi Blaine."

"Hi Kurt." I smiled.

*buzz*"1 New Message"

Wes: Stop flirting with that guy outside and get your ass in here.

I turned around and looked through the window to see Wes sitting at a table staring at me.

"Let's go." I signed, walking towards the door and holding it open for Kurt.I felt Wes watching me carefully as me and Kurt stood in line.

"What do you want?" Kurt asked when we got up to the cashier.

"Medium Drip and a chocolate cronut." He nodded pulling out his wallet and talking to the blonde barista. I hovered my hand over his and shook my head.

"You paid for my dinner last night. You're not paying for this." He rolled his eyes and continued to pull his wallet out.

"I want to pay."

"No. I asked you to be here, I'll pay." I pulled my wallet out, but by the time I grabbed my money, he had already paid.

"You can pay next time." He signed.I rolled my eyes and smiled, defeated, as I stuffed my money back into my pocket.

We were handed our cups and we turned around to see Wes staring at us. I smiled slightly as we walked over to him.

"Kurt, this is Wes." I signed to him.Kurt stretched his hand out and waited for Wes to shake it.

"Kurt." He said.

Kurt's POV~

"Dude. You didn't tell me you were gettin some!" Wes said patting Blaine down on the shoulder.

"You do realize I can hear you, right?" Wes looked over at me shocked.

"I-I- I thought you wer-" He stammered.

"You thought wrong." I glared at him.I saw Blaine look at me confused.

"What do you want me to say to him?" I signed.

"I don't know. What does he want to say." He struggled.

"Wait. So if you can hear, why are you guys using sign language?" Wes asked.

"Wait. Blaine didn't tell you?" I said looking over at Blaine.

"Tell me what?"

"You didn't tell him..." I signed to Blaine.

"How was I suppose to tell him? Just text him and be like 'hey dude, how's work? Oh and by the way, I'm deaf now, so if you want to tell the boss to fire me that's fine'! I didn't know what to say."

"He can't hear us, can he?" I turned my attention back to Wes and shook my head.

"What happened?" He asked. I was about to answer, when I realized, I didn't know what happened. He never told me. It was never shared with me. Is it okay if I ask?

"I don't know."

"Well ask him!!" Wes said as if it was the most easiest thing ever.

"He wants to know what happened." I signed slowly.

"No." He spoke.

"Blaine. Just tell me so I can tell him."

"I was attacked after dropping him off at home." He signed.

"Blaine." I whispered.

"What he say?"

"He was attacked after dropping you off at home."

"What the hell? Why am I just hearing about this? By who?!"

"Who was it?" I asked Blaine.

"I don't know. A couple of gay bashers."

"You're gay?" He looked at me with bulging eyes.

"Homophobics.." I said to Wes.

"God damn it." He whispered.

"Blaine's gay?" I asked Wes.

"You didn't know? I thought you were like his boyfriend or something."

"No. I'm his teacher. He asked me to be here as his translator..."

"Don't hate him."

"Why would I hate him?"

"Because he's gay?"

"Does no one realize that I'm gay too?! Is it that hard to notice?"

"Well, I thought you were when I first saw you, but you just said you guys weren't boyfriends so I assumed I was wrong. Blainey, on the other hand, is very clueless and wouldn't know a gay man if they had a sign flashing "Gay" with unicorns and rainbows on their forehead." He said taking a sip on his coffee.

"Blaine. I'm gay too. I thought it was obvious?" I signed over to him.He let out a relieved sigh he was holding in.

"Tell him I went to the doctors today and they said I could get surgery soon. Just have to talk to my dad." I nodded.

"He said the doctor cleared him to get surgery. He can get his hearing back." I smiled.

"That's great! I'll just tell our boss what happened." I translated over to Blaine.

"Wes, no! You can't tell him anything." He spoke, brokenly.

"Why not?" He asked.I signed to Blaine.He replied.

"Because if you tell your boss, he might not think that Blaine is as good as he was and will fire him."

"Dale would nev-"

"Just tell him he had a family emergency and he'll be back as soon as he can be." I said. Wes nodded.

"Surgery is good, right?" He asked.

"Yeah. It is." I looked over at Blaine as he bit into his cronut and smiled.He's adorable.

"You like him, don't you?" I turned to Wes.

"Excuse me?"

"He's warming up to you, yah know. He's starting to have feelings for you, I can tell. I've known him forever, I can see how he looks at you."

"What's he saying?" Blaine signed.

"That he's known you forever." Blaine nodded.

"We were in high school together. We were roommates. All he did was protect his stupid gavel." Blaine signed.

"I don't know if he signed this correctly but he said all you did was protect your stupid gavel?"

"Hey! It was NOT STUPID!" I sat there with my mouth wide open.

"You're serious? There was an actual gavel."

"Yes." I looked over to Blaine.

"He used to hit us on the head with it if we didn't follow the rules." Blaine signed rolling his eyes.

"You hit them on the head?"

"I wish I still did. He doesn't know it, but that baby is hiding under my bed. They always stole it from me so I had to punish them with it." I shook my head and laughed.

"What he say?"

"He still has the gavel and he used to punish you guys with it when you stole it from him."

"You still have it?!" Blaine shouted and bursted out laughing.

"YOU TOLD HIM?! Now he's going to search my house top to bottom looking for it. I was starting to like you, Kurt."

"Kurt. You have to tell me where it is."

"He said I have to tell him when it is."

"Kurt. You can't."

"I don't know, I might just have to."

"I'll do anything."

"Anything?"

"Anything." He said. Man, this guy is serious when it comes to his gavel.HMmmmmm what could I have hi- GOT IT!

"Okay. I won't tell him, if you help my friend out with her record deal." He looked at me skeptically.

"Who is this friend you speak of?" He leaned over the table.

"Her name is Mercedes Jones. She really needs this, I told her I'd ask Blaine, but I haven't had the chance. You're the closest to Blaine there is, so please."

"I'll see what I can do. But, you can't tell Blaine about my gavel."

"Deal."

"Shake on it." He said stretching his arm out.I firmly took his hand and shook it, turning back to Blaine.

"Where is it?!"

"I can't tell you."

"KURT?!"

"I'm sorry!"

"But you were my friend first!" He looked at me with puppy dog eyes.

"Don't do it Kurt. This is how he wins. Don't get sucked into it."

"Sorry, Blainey." His jaw dropped as I turned back to take a sip of my coffee.

"Good job. Not many can resist Blaine's puppy dog eyes."

"I barely could." Wes chuckled.

"Well it was nice to meet you, Kurt. I have to head back home, my dog might end up peeing on the floor if I don't take her out soon. I'll catch you around later. Take care of him." Wes stood up from his chair.

"Wes is leaving. Has to get back to his dog." I signed. Blaine frowned and  stood up, pulling Wes in for a quick hug.

"Bye dude." He waved, walking out of the cafe.

"So, Blainey?" Blaine signed at me:

"I thought it was a cute nickname." He chuckled.

"I like it. Are you ready to go?" Blaine asked.

"I'm actually going to stay here for a little bit. I'm starting to like it. Do you need a ride home?"

"No. I can just walk back."

"Want company?"

"No. That's okay. Enjoy this wonderful cafe." He smiled, leaning over and startling me, giving me a hug.

"Bye Kurt." He grinned.

"Bye Blainey." I turned around as he walked out of the doors and onto the street. He turned back towards me, looking at me through the windows. He looked down at his shoes and smiled, turning back towards the street and walking in the direction of his apartment building.

Is it that obvious that I like him? I thought, walking up the the barista and ordering a piece of cheesecake. Maybe I should order two....
