Author’s notes: This WIP story has been written for the Kurt/Blaine Reversebang 2014. The background behind the title - it’s a title to a song from the 1936 movie, Follow the Fleet, sung by Fred Astaire (to Ginger Rogers’ character). My thanks to manningstar for helping out on beta duty - without her input this story wouldn’t be as cohesive as it is. I’m also extremely grateful to have been able to work with abritincanadatwo, who has been nothing but supportive. Without her original piece of art, this story would never have been told. Many thanks to thetimesinbetween also, who helped source queer culture articles from the 1940s and took some pretty awesome reference photos for me. I owe these lovely people a debt of gratitude. A quick shout out to Glee for putting some perfectly placed references to the late 1940s - some of which you may recognize as you read.
