“Smell that fresh air, Blainers?!” Cooper exclaims with a hand on Blaine’s shoulder.

Blaine squints as the bright afternoon sun shines in his eyes and chuckles softly, “They did let us outside.” He says.

Blaine feels his left hand shake from its position in Kurt’s right hand and turns to his boyfriend who is smiling at him, “Totally not the same thing.” Kurt says, softly.

Blaine smiles back at Kurt and nods, “Yeah, you’re right.” He says as the pair make their way further away from the facility that was their prison for the past two months. Burt and Cooper walk behind them.

Kurt and Blaine make their way to the sidewalk and both stop at the same time, as if realizing at the same moment what is actually happening. They’re leaving, they don’t have to go back, they’re safe.

They turn and look at each other with the same breathless expressions, not sure what to do or say. Burt comes up behind Kurt and lays a hand gently on his shoulder, “Cooper and I will be in the car. Take all the time you need.” He whispers before gesturing for the older Anderson to follow him.

Cooper wiggles his eyebrows suggestively at Blaine, who rolls his eyes with a puff of a laugh, before following.

Kurt and Blaine turn to each other and Kurt reaches out to grab Blaine’s other hand, letting their joined hands hang between them, “We’re safe.” He says quietly, as if saying it louder will make it less true.

“We are.” Blaine answers, unbelievingly.

“We can go home. See our friends. Live our lives the way we want to live them. With our own names.” Kurt says.

Blaine nods, “All true.”

“We can…” Kurt starts but then stops himself as his eyes widen. He looks away from Blaine and Blaine can see his cheeks go pink with a blush.

“We can what?” Blaine asks, feeling a thrill go through him at the innocent expression.

Kurt shakes his head, “It’s silly. Just…a random thought popped into my head. But…it’s too much to share.”

Blaine lifts an eyebrow, “Kurt, we’ve just been through hell. I think we’re past the point of things being ‘too much to share’.” He says not unkindly.

Kurt presses his lips together before nodding and taking a deep breath, “We can…spend the rest of our lives together.” He whispers.

All the breath leaves Blaine’s body in a rush. He’s not sure what he was expecting to hear but that was not it. His heart picks up speed and his eyes widen.

Kurt’s shy expression changes to horror, “Oh my God, I’m so sorry. It WAS too much.” He says, pulling a hand away from Blaine’s to cover his face as it burns a brighter red.

Blaine splutters but then recovers and reaches to pull Kurt’s hand away and back into his own, “Hey.” He admonishes softly, “You misread my reaction.” He says and Kurt looks at him guardedly, “That sounds…amazing.” He says and it’s Kurt’s turn to look breathless, smiling with all his teeth.

They’re quiet for a moment, just smiling at each other, before a car horn honks, startling them both, “If one of you is going to propose, get on with it!” Cooper yells, leaning out the car window in the parking lot, “Though really Kurt…do you really wanna yoke yourself to him for the rest of your life?” He pulls a face with a shrug.

Kurt and Blaine both roll their eyes as Burt pulls a smiling Cooper back into the car with an exasperated look on his face.

Blaine turns to Kurt, “Do you think you could…” He lifts an eyebrow meaningfully, hoping Kurt knows what he means.

Kurt pouts his lips thoughtfully before gasping when he gets it. He takes a deep breath and closes his eyes. They’re quiet for another few seconds before Kurt opens his eyes and smiles with a nod.

Blaine smiles back before turning his head to the side without looking away from Kurt, “We’ll see you two at Kurt’s house!” He calls.

Kurt giggles before closing his eyes and inhaling again. This time the move causes the pair to teleport from their spot in front of Manutek to Kurt’s bedroom.

Blaine almost loses his footing when they arrive but Kurt’s hands keep him steady and the pair smile at each other when everything settles.

They both know that this is not the end of their ordeal. Their time running from and at Manutek has left both of them with mental scars that will take time and help to heal and Blaine with a physical twitch that may never go away. They know there is still a long way to go before they, and people like them, are accepted by society and that they may never see the day where they aren’t discriminated against…

But for now they have this moment, and whatever comes next - they’ll have each other.
