Chapter Text
“When I get you alone..”, Blaine sang the end line of the song and looked straight at his boyfriend and co-star Sebastian Smythe with a dopey smile. However, when he saw the expression on Sebastian’s face his smile faltered. The actor stood there with an angry frown not meeting Blaine’s eyes. The crowd around them went silent waiting for one of them to make their move. At least fifty phones were directed their way filming their interaction. Blaine could feel the tension getting higher and wondered what his next move should be. But before he could do anything Sebastian stormed towards him and grabbed his arm dragging him to the building. A red-faced Blaine followed trying not to focus on the crowd.
“What the hell was that?”, shouted Sebastian when they got into his trailer. Blaine took a seat on the nearest armchair and hid his face with his hands. He tried to gather his thoughts before saying something. “Blaine, just answer me!”
“I just serenaded you, so that I can express my love towards you.”, Blaine tried to sound like he was not about to cry but failed miserably. His hazel eyes were already watering, and he tried to stop the tears from pouring down.
“By singing a song about sex toys in the middle of the street in front of all these people out there?”, Sebastian paced around the room trying not to panic, and thinking how he was going to explain that to his manager.
“You know I didn’t mean it like that!”, said Blaine looking at his pacing boyfriend. “I just want us to be public about our relationship. I’m tired of hiding.”
“You think that I’m not tired of it?”, Sebastian crouched so he was face to face with his crying boyfriend. “Baby, you know I love you. But you also know that my manager doesn’t want me to come out any time soon. We just need to stay a secret for at least a year. Then my contract with him will be done and we will tell everybody that we are together.”
“Promise?”, Blaine asked through tears. He got a tissue from Sebastian’s coffee table and blew his nose loudly.
“Aw, baby, I promise.”, Sebastian kissed his temple and got up. “Now, I just need to call my manager to see how he plans to cover this. You can stay here if you want.”
“No, I think I’m just going to leave.”, Blaine threw his issues in the bin and made his way to the door of the trailer. He waved at Sebastian with a little smile and closed the door.
His trailer was a mess. Before the whole thing happened, he and Sebastian came here between takes to have a hot make-out session on every surface they could find. He sighed remembering how happy they were before his stupid plan backfired at him. He started to pick everything up and putting it in its’ place. When Blaine was done with tidying his trailer his phone rang. The name of his manager showed up. He was expecting the call and was surprised that it came so late.
“Hello?”, he said picking up after a few seconds.
“Young Burt Reynolds, you disappointed me today.”, Sue didn’t sound as angry as Blaine thought she would be. He sighed, rubbing circles on his temple. “Seriously, I didn’t expect you to screw up this bad. Congratulations! You surprised the great Sue Sylvester.”
“Look, Sue, I’m sorry. Things were not supposed to go this way..”, Blaine tried to explain, but Sue interrupted him.
“Yeah, yeah. I know. Your meerkat faced boyfriend was supposed to fall in love with you. Then you were going to hold hands and run towards the rainbows and have gay babies with giant horse teeth and gelled hair. Sorry, your plan didn’t work out, kiddo. But don’t you worry I have it all figured out. Come to my office at 3 pm. We will be waiting for you.”
“Wait, who else is going to be there?”, Blaine asked quickly but Sue already hung up. If she wasn’t the best in the business, he was going to fire her. He looked at his watch and it was 1.30 pm.
Blaine looked through the clothes he had in his trailer and picked a red polo and black pants. He didn’t have time to overthink it if he wanted to make it to Sue’s office on time. He sprayed himself with some perfume, grabbed his keys and left.
The traffic in LA wasn’t so bad that day so he got to Sue’s office 5 minutes early. Her assistant led him to the 7th floor immediately. When he entered the floor, Sue called her office another person was sitting opposite Sue with their back towards Blaine.
“Well, hello young Burt Reynolds. Come and meet my dear client Porcelain.”, Sue said pointing to the pale man sitting in her office. The man checked him up with his blue eyes and smirked a little.
“My name is Kurt Hummel, what’s yours’ babe?”, the man or Kurt winked at him. Blaine blushed and quickly sat on the other chair moving it a little bit further from Kurt.
“I’m Blaine Anderson.”, he answered and turned to Sue.” Why am I here? And why is he here?”
“Well, after the little stunt you pulled today and Porcelain’s plan to sleep with every gay man in LA and get caught by paparazzi every time,” Sue said looking pointedly at both of them, “I decided that it will be good for both of you to stay in a stable relationship for at least a year.”
“What?” Blaine stood up from his chair almost pushing it down, “What I did wasn’t even that bad!”
“Oh, God! So, you are the idiot who serenaded his closeted boyfriend in front of a crowd. With a song about sex toys!”, Kurt said through laughter. Blaine blushed and hid behind his hands for the second time that day. This time from embarrassment.
“Yes, that’s him.”, Sue nodded with a smile while Kurt was still laughing on his chair.
“Stop! It wasn’t that bad!”, Blaine said trying to tone down his blush. “And, by the way, I still don’t get why I’m here.”
“I told you, you and Porcelain are going to be dating for at least a year because of your stupid decisions.”, Sue explained as if it made complete sentence while the two men in front of her looked pissed.
“The thing is I already have a boyfriend.”, Blaine said slowly trying to emphasise his point.
“Yes, who is in the closet. We are making you date someone else so we can say you were rehearsing for serenading your boyfriend, who is not meerkat face..”
“He really looks like a meerkat.”, nodded Kurt and Blaine scoffed at him.
“That way it won’t look like you two are boyfriends and the meerkat can stay in the closet. We all win.”, Sue continued finishing with an excited face.
“What do I win?”, Blaine asked with a raised eyebrow.
“Does he always ask so many questions?”, groaned Kurt from beside him.
“Yes, Porcelain, he does. Get used to it.”, Sue answered while organising some of the papers on her desk. “Young Burt Reynolds I don’t know if you know this, but you are sitting next to one of the greatest models our world has seen. What you get from this is fame. Even more, than you have now. You and Porcelain will be the power couple of the industry. And if that’s not enough this way you keep your meerkat boyfriend in the closet as I already mentioned. I’m not saying that you need to break up with him. Just don’t get caught. So, boys, do we have a deal?” She looked between Kurt and Blaine with raised eyebrows and put two papers in front of them.
“I’m in.”, shrugged Kurt and signed the contracts without even reading them. They turned towards Blaine and looked at him expectantly.
“Okay, I’m in.”, He sighed and signed his name next to Kurt’s.
“I have a question?”, Kurt smirked looking at Blaine. “Is he going to serenade me too?”
