Two weeks after their first date, Noah Puckerman was off the market. For the first time in his life, he had a boyfriend...a model boyfriend who lived in New York at that. Everyone back home had been more than a little surprised when they started seeing pictures of Puck with some incredibly good looking guy showing up all over his Facebook, they all figured it was some new friend of his until a picture was posted of the two playing tonsil hockey. Surprisingly enough the only person who hadn't been surprised was Finn, if anything he thought it was funny. When asked why he wasn't shocked by Puck dating a guy, he just shrugged and said 'I've thought he had a crush on Kurt for a while now, so this wasn't too far of a stretch'. Santana had actually thought it was funny, she'd shown up at Kurt's after the picture was posted, took one look at Puck sitting on the couch with Alex watching a movie and started laughing barely managing to get out 'You're not just gay for Hummel!' before she was able to calm down enough to congratulate them and introduce herself.

Once the two weeks were up, Puck had a not entirely difficult decision to make. He could go back to Lima, and they would try and figure out how to hold a new relationship at a distance, or take Alex's offer to stay with him. The offer had taken Puck by surprise that was for sure, thinking back to the conversation he still had trouble believing it...

"Please don't go" Alex whispered from his place on Puck's chest, they had been watching a movie on his couch at his apartment, both trying not to think about the fact Puck was supposed to head back to Lima in a few days.

"I wish I could stay, but I've already been bumming it on Kurt's couch for almost two weeks now...it wouldn't be fair to him or Blaine to ask if I could stay" He responded sadly, holding Alex just a little tighter in his arms.

"Then...stay here." Alex had said looking up at Puck's surprised face.

"You mean like here, here? With you?" He asked slowly.

Alex nodded "Stay here, with me. Just don't go."

"Babe...you know I would love to, I just...are you sure? You do realize you are asking me to move in with you right?" He asked.

Alex kissed him "I'm not ready to let you go Noah, so stay here, stay with me and we'll figure it all out" he'd laid his head back on Puck's chest listening to his heart beating steadily. Puck was quiet for a while before he dropped a kiss to the top of Alex's head with a sigh.

"Looks like I'm staying in New York. So, do we get to share the bed or are you going to make me sleep on the couch?" He'd asked with a grin, laughing when Alex shouted excitedly and started kissing him all over his face.

So, that was it. He'd go to Lima, pack his stuff and come right back to New York and move in with Alex. That is, if his mother didn't kill him first. She'd been surprised but not mad when he'd told her he had a boyfriend, but that might change when he told her he was moving in with said boyfriend eleven hours away after two weeks of being together. But...he just couldn't help it. He'd be lying if he said he wasn't at least a little in love with Alex already, he made him happy, made him feel special and important, wanted. He wasn't about to give that up for anything, even if everyone thought he was crazy and stupid...well...they were partially right, he was crazy about Alex, and if that made him stupid, then oh well. Crazy and Stupid it was.

Alex had decided to drive back with him to Lima and help him with his stuff, no matter how much he tried talking him out of it, and he would not budge on his decision. Why he wanted to see Lima, Ohio was completely beyond Puck but hey, if it made his boyfriend happy? He'd just smile and nod. Alex had reasoned he wanted to meet Puck's mother and sister, let them know that he was serious about Puck and promise to take good care of him. It hadn't surprised Puck that his mom absolutely loved Alex, she just kept going on and on about how handsome and polite he was. Puck's sister just stared at him blushing the entire time too stunned to talk, but Alex hadn't been deterred and presented her with a present after introducing himself. He'd introduced Alex to Finn who had offered to come over and help back, along with Sebastian and Blake. Sebastian didn't really come to help pack, he more so came to meet the model who apparently had hit his head at some point and acquired enough brain damage to date Puckerman of all people. Alex still wasn't exactly sure what to make of Sebastian and he seemed to spend the majority of the time he was around trying to figure out whether Sebastian and his boyfriend were actually friends or not with the way they insulted each other. Blake had been the one to explain that in Sebastian's world all of that was his way of congratulating Puck on finding a hot boyfriend. He'd been happy to find out Finn was Kurt's step brother and they spent a good amount of time talking about how Kurt was doing at his job and how excited he was for Fashion week.

By the time they were on their way back to New York, Puck couldn't help but smile at the fact Alex seemed to charm his way into his mother's heart, make his sister fall in love with him, and he got along with his friends. If that didn't show that Alex was a keeper...what did?

Kurt had showed his design to Jean Paul Gaultier three days after Puck had officially moved to New York. Much to his relief, the man had absolutely loved it and told him that it would be made exactly to Kurt's specifications and added to the lineup for Paris. Kurt had been...beyond thrilled. This was a dream come true. This could change everything for him, it could launch his career in the Fashion Industry and make him a name for himself if the right people liked and took notice of his design.

When he'd called Blaine to tell him the good news Blaine had been ecstatic, telling Kurt he knew he would be able to do it and telling him how proud he was of him. When Blaine saw Kurt next weekend he'd be preparing for his trip to Paris and hopefully being one step closer to reaching his professional potential.

It had been an exciting year so far that was for sure. Puck had moved to New York and was dating Alex, which Kurt considered one of the most incredible things he'd ever been a part of. Watching the way Puck was with Alex was mesmerizing, simply put, the man was sprung. Puckzilla had been tamed by the pretty green eyes and infectious smile of Alex Ballatori, and the man himself was just as bad if not worse when it came to Puck. He'd been shocked when Alex told him he was planning on asking Puck to move in with him, but he wasn't about to even attempt to interfere, it was more than a little obvious the two were crazy about each other and who was Kurt to ever get in the way of love? Love had no rules or guidelines, each couple was different and worked at their own pace, all he wanted was for his two friends to be happy, and they'd found happiness with each other, so he was more than supportive of them and their decision. Besides in all the years he's known Noah Puckerman, he was pretty sure he'd never ever seen him this way. It was obvious to Kurt that Puck was head over heels in love with Alex; he just hadn't either realized it or admitted it to himself yet. The Noah Puckerman he knew would never up and move in with someone, and make that kind of commitment, unless he was serious about them.
Besides, if Alex wanted to convince one of Kurt's best friends to move to New York...Kurt wouldn't complain. Sure he loved Rachel and Santana, but it was still nice to have his GUY friends around. Despite what some people at his high school had thought, he was definitely male and he had the equipment to prove it. With all the excitement going on the month had gone by surprisingly quick, in just a few short days Blaine would be here for the weekend and while it wasn't much time, it was better than nothing.

*K&B*K&B*K&B*K&B*K&B*

Blaine was thrilled to be back in Kurt's arms. They were currently cuddling in bed having just gotten back to the apartment from the airport. It'd been a busy month, what with being his senior year, trying to keep up with everything happening in New York and counting down the days till he would be able to move, as well as how many days to the wedding now that they'd set a date and narrowed down the venue. It was all becoming incredibly real to Blaine that the wedding would be coming up fast; they needed to start making some real decisions so everything wasn't left to when he was finally in New York this summer.

They planned on getting married at the Prince George Ballroom, the place was absolutely STUNNING. The elegant, 4,800 square feet ballroom featured gorgeous ceiling murals that soared 16 feet above the beautiful oak floor, they wouldn't need much as far as décor and lighting due to the fact the room itself was exquisite. Kurt had taken him there after he'd casually mentioned if he had to pick a favorite that would definitely be it, so Blaine had said if that was the case, they should go see it together and start talking numbers with the owners. Kurt had thrown his arms around him excitedly and told him he would love the place, it was beautiful and historic, the exact kind of place Blaine would approve of as a wedding site.

They had narrowed down their colors; Kurt had told him what inspired him as far as colors had been Blaine's dazzling honey eyes and their love of coffee and chocolate. Chocolate brown, Cream and warm gold's were what they had decided on. Both of them loved the idea of chocolate covered espresso beans at each table, Blaine was fully in support of the idea of a chocolate fountain, and Kurt had showed him some pictures of centerpiece ideas and place settings using their colors, using branches and hanging crystals and floating rose heads from them and setting candles in glass bowls with coffee beans at the bottom around it, They talked about flower options and ideas, the flowers they knew would all have to be white and preferably fragrant, white lavender and cherry blossoms, white roses and wisteria blossoms, delphinium, snowball viburnum, ranunculus, and ferns...

They had decided on a guest list of 200 people all together. It was bound to be a perfect wedding, at least if Kurt had anything to do in it, there was no way Blaine would have been able to come up with any of this stuff on his own. Apparently during the end of spring break Carole and his mother were planning on flying up to do some real planning with them, they both wanted to be involved in the wedding process and his mother was actually most excited to see Kurt in action when it came to planning this whole wedding and how his thought process and idea's came together. She had told Blaine if Fashion ever lost its charm for Kurt he could probably make good money as a wedding planner for the wealthy in New York with his ability. Which Blaine knew was probably completely true. His ever talented future husband, Kurt could probably do just about anything in Blaine's opinion, as long as he was given the opportunity.

*K&B*K&B*K&B*K&B*K&B*

Kurt and Blaine were currently having dinner at Alex...and now Puck's too they suppose, home. Blaine felt much more comfortable with the two people who had previously shown interest in his fiancé finding what seemed like love in each other, he'd never been happier to see Puck in a relationship with someone, and suddenly Alex didn't seem like such a bad guy for having gone on a date with Kurt during their brief separation. If anything he was glad they were both in New York to be there for Kurt, he knew Puck was protective of him and would be there for him if he needed anything, and he seemed as though Alex would likely do the same. It was hard not to love Kurt and feel a sense of protection towards him after spending enough time with him, Blaine could relate.

Both of them couldn't help but watch the new couple in amazement. Anyone who knew Puck would think he'd been invaded by body snatchers. This affectionate, caring guy who doted on his boyfriend was legitimately difficult to wrap your head around, gone was the cocky womanizing badass they knew, he was officially a new man. The biggest and best change though was the amount of smiling Puck did now, it was as if his lips were stuck in a permanent grin, at least when he was around Alex.

The two couples ended the night both cuddled up together on the couch watching a movie; Kurt nestled comfortably in Blaine's side while Blaine stroked a hand down his back and threw his hair as Kurt began to doze off with his head tucked in Blaine's neck. Alex was in a similar position against Puck only he seemed to be trying to see how much it would take to distract Puck from the movie, a kiss here, a grope there, Puck seemed to know exactly what he was doing and steadfastly ignoring it the best he could despite Alex's attempts. Halfway through the movie Puck finally conceded defeat and made eye contact with Blaine who nodded motioning to a sleeping Kurt before he softly shook him awake and told Kurt he thought it was time they went home. Kurt barely stayed awake long enough to make it to the car after they said goodbye to Alex and Puck who were halfway to the bedroom before they were completely through the door.

In bed that night Kurt had cuddled up to Blaine, he was exhausted, all the extra hours he'd been putting in at work with Fashion week coming up, wedding planning...Blaine was finally here and as much as he wanted to be running around and taking him everywhere, all he wanted to do was curl up in Blaine's arms and relax, soak up some of the comfort only Blaine could offer him. To be perfectly honest, Blaine didn't mind, he didn't care what they were doing, as long as he had Kurt with him and in his arms. So he was perfectly content with the current situation of having Kurt sprawled out across his chest snoring softly as if Blaine was one big teddy bear.

*K&B*K&B*K&B*K&B*

Kurt's design had been more than a little successful in Paris, besides the fact he'd had a complete blast with the fast paced running around like a chicken with its head cut off, he'd been sweating bullets once his model had walked out and he'd peaked through the curtains back stage trying to see the reaction of everyone, from what he could see...people loved it. He had been right of course, after the fact Jean Paul Gautier had dragged him towards the press where they were conducting their interviews of the designers and he'd introduced Kurt to them as an up and coming designer in New York who worked for Vogue under the tutelage of Catherine Blake, he'd told them that this was a trail run of one of his designs to see how the public responded and after the incredible response he would likely be moving forward to design a line of his own. Kurt had simply stared at him in shock, he did it. He made it to Paris, made it to Fashion week, everyone loved his design, and Jean Paul Gautier was talking about him creating his own line of clothing. He felt feint...and lightly pinched his own hand to make sure he wasn't hallucinating. Jean Paul had pushed him forward to be interviewed by the reporters on his own and he stood slightly overwhelmed as he tried to answer each of their questions.

"Mr. Hummel! Are you planning on moving to Paris?" someone shouted and he looked at the reporter with a smile shaking his head "I love Paris, I do, but I have no plans to move here, New York is my home now and will continue to be"

"Mr. Hummel! When should we expect to see your new clothing line?"
"As of right now I'm not sure, the minute I find out I'll let you know" He responded.

"Mr. Hummel! You are wearing a ring on your finger, does this mean you are married?"
"Mr. Hummel! Are you gay or straight?"
"Mr. Hummel! Did you bring a date here with you tonight?"

Kurt blinked rapidly as three reporters questioned him about his personal life, taking a moment's pause he responded honestly. "I'm actually currently engaged to my partner of almost two years now, I am 100 % gay and no I did not bring my fiancé or anyone else with me to Paris, he had prior obligations to attend to and I wouldn't bring anyone but him to something like this."

"Mr. Hummel when is the wedding?" A woman with kind face asked.

"Sometime this August, I'm afraid that's all the questions I have time for right now, I am being flagged down to head back stage, thank you all for your support and I hope I'll be seeing you again next year at Fashion Week with a line of my own, keep your fingers crossed! Have a goodnight everyone" He said with a wave and made his way back to a smiling Catherine Blake.

"You did it, how does it feel?" She asked curiously.

"Like my heart is going to jump out of my chest and I might either pass out or throw up to be honest"

She laughed heartily at him "No worries, you'll get used to it I promise. Let's head back to the hotel so you can call that wonderful fiancé of yours and tell him he's officially marrying a fashion designer"
