Blaine's heart is going crazy. He sits in Sam's musty back pocket, counting the bumpy footsteps as he is transported to the home of Kurt Hummel, his boyfriend.
That is, his could-be boyfriend. Kurt and Blaine haven't seen each other since their big fight two weeks ago, when Blaine confessed to having been unfaithful. He has tried calling, texting, even I'm-Sorry-balloon-and-candy-ing, but the love of his life has only given him the cold shoulder.
"Don't worry, man." Sam says, ringing the doorbell. "He'll forget about being mad at you when he sees how much you need his help."
Moments later, the door opens and suddenly there he is: Kurt. Smiling, his beautiful face seeming more alive and vibrant for all the time Blaine has missed seeing him. "Sam! What a surprise! Come in, come in." He moves to usher Sam inside and then his face changes. "What's- Oh. Blaine." His expression goes from rosy cheerfulness to porcelain cool in seconds. He regards his tiny boyfriend not unkindly but uncertainly.
"Yeah, I'll let him fill you in on the details but it looks like he's gotten himself in trouble and I feel like if someone has to be in charge of him until he gets help it should be you. You're kind of his next of kin." Sam explains.
For a moment it looks like Kurt is ready to slam the door in his face, and Blaine feels his heart lurch. At this size, he feels a hundred times more in love with his boyfriend, a hundred times more sorry, and a hundred times more at his mercy. He breathes a huge sigh of relief when Kurt nods, "That's okay, Sam. You did the right thing."
Transferred from Sam's warm, sweaty paw to Kurt's soft delicate cage of fingers, Blaine feels a strange cocktail of emotions. All he wants now is to be alone with Kurt, to be forgiven by him and reassured that he can count on his boyfriend to get him back to regular size again.
Once Sam leaves and the mismatched couple have their privacy, Blaine lays it on the table.
"Kurt, I'm sorry." He pleads, his eyes wide and wet. "What I did was unforgivable, but I'm begging you to give me one more chance. If we can just put all this behind us and fix my problem as a team, I promise I'll be the best boyfriend in the world."
Kurt remains cool. He turns his nose up, studying his nails as if he's in no hurry to give his answer. When he finally does, his words make Blaine extremely nervous.
"On one condition."
