FILLED: Husbandly Duties (6/?)

[anxioussquirrel]

The next two days were a flurry of activity so intense that it all felt surreal. Blaine had no chance to meet his fiancé at all during this time, but for once, he didn’t mind at all. It gave him a chance to think and plan. Because even if he did his best to soothe Kurt’s fears about the future of their friendship, Blaine had to quietly admit that he understood his concerns. It was true that once they were bound in marriage and lived together, it would be much easier to let things slide little by little and screw their whole relationship up. He knew it happened all the time, everywhere, and while they started from a much better place than many other gay couples, it didn’t guarantee anything.

They were very different in some respects and Blaine suspected that the small, everyday things may become a source of dissonance if they weren’t careful. Their expectations were probably quite different too. Kurt was already anxious and hesitant, even before they made their vows. In any other circumstances, it would be enough to say that they should wait, think it over again. As it was, however, they didn’t have the luxury of time or doubt. They were doing this, getting bound to each other forever, and it scared Blaine how thin the ice they would be walking, how easily Kurt’s disappointment could give way to resentment. He couldn’t let it happen. Because Blaine was pretty sure that he was head over heels in love with his future husband and intended to do anything to give him whatever he needed to be happy. And when Blaine Anderson really wanted something, he did everything he could to make it happen.

The ceremony took place on the third day after Kurt’s proposal. Blaine had witnessed it once, last year, when his cousin got married, so he knew that it wasn’t designed to be beautiful or joyous; just a formality to be taken care of. The courthouse was dark and depressing, the wedding chamber seemed to reverberate with the sound of a hundred broken hopes, and the magistrate that married his cousin and her bidder had been grumpy and short-tempered. It had all looked like a sad parody of wedding. But Kurt didn’t know what to expect, so it would probably come as a shock to him, especially considering his romantic dreams. Blaine couldn’t do much to change the feel of the ceremony itself, so he would just do what he could to make Kurt feel better. And he had a surprise for him afterwards. Or rather, a couple of them.

Kurt looked perfect, though pale and anxious when they met in front of the majestic old building that early Monday afternoon, accompanied by no one but their families. The weather was kind to them, April sun making all the fresh leaves on trees and shrubs even more vividly green and full of life, but Blaine could see that it did nothing to alleviate Kurt’s worries. He almost felt bad for feeling so happy himself. Knowing how close he’d been to standing right here, maybe a couple of days later, with a complete stranger who just won him in a bid made today feel like a miracle; joy and relief thrumming in his blood ever since he woke up this morning.

Blaine came up to his fiancé and hugged him, whispering in his ear.

“Kurt, I’m so glad it’s you I’m starting this journey with. I promise I will do anything to make this marriage work and to make you happy.”

He felt Kurt stiffen briefly at the word marriage, but then he relaxed into Blaine’s embrace. There was a small smile on Kurt’s lips when they parted, and he took Blaine’s hand.

“Okay, let’s do it.”

Oh, there I go again with a big silly grin, because I am SO happy that Blaine has already realized he's in love with Kurt....it will get better, bb!! (I'm curious to see if you're as much of a kink-whore as you are an angst-whore, by the way....) <3
