Summary: Working at a place like Vogue, it was easy to get caught up in the day to day, not to mention the events and fashion on top of it all, which was part of the reason Kurt didn't realize he was getting overworked and near the verge of burning out - at least, not until he was ordered to take a vacation to keep just that from happening. It was difficult to argue when everything had been planned, and by the time he was on his way, the fact that his boss had booked a stay at a retreat didn't seem like any kind of overstepping, but more like a relief. A week away from the city, lost in the quiet - no, the silence - with nothing to do but relax, breathe, meditate, maybe partake in the yoga sessions he'd seen in the brochures provided to him, it was all so foreign compared to the fast paced busyness Kurt was used to dealing with. He had no expectations for the week other than maybe gaining some sense of zen - but by the time he left to head back to the city, he’d gotten much, much more than that.
Author's Note: Thank you to whenidance for being my amazing beta and to animateglee for creating beautiful art for me once again. Written for the Kurt Big Bang.
