Title: Whether Near to Me or Far
Author: unwritten25
Word Count: 25,534
Rating: M
Pairing: Kurt/Blaine, mentioned Burt/Carole, Rachel/Finn, one-sided Karofsky/Kurt, Rachel/Blaine
Summary: In 1937, Kurt Hummel, son of a rich family, and Blaine Anderson, part of the Hummel staff, have little in common beyond a shared education at Yale and a childhood friendship. The summer after their college graduation, Kurt and Blaine find themselves growing more and more attracted to each other. However, before they have a chance to be together, one night's events and a chain of misunderstandings change their entire history and pulls them apart. As they struggle to find each other again, they're hindered by war and the shadow of the events that ruined their lives. Klaine, Atonement!AU.
Disclaimer: I do not own Glee or Atonement - I just have lots of fun playing with them.
Spoilers: If you haven't seen Atonement, spoilers for the entire movie. No spoilers for Glee though.
Warning: homophobia, racism, sexism (1930's!), angst angst angst, non-graphic rape, character death, very light Rachel-bashing, war, some violence, sexual situations, some historical inaccuracies since I'm not an expert on World War II.
