************************

It has been a month, and both Blaine and Rachel have kept busy with classes, seeing the sights of New York with some of their fellow classmates, but yet to go on the highly anticipated date. Definitely need to step it up from their Love Story at the Revival Theatre though.

Blaine was waiting for the right time to ask her put. Well he has, but he wanted to do it right. Rachel was still in class, so Blaine decided to enjoy his alone time in the dorm room. He finished his homework, then took a shower. Kurt had been messaging him non-stop. Blaine replied but perhaps not as often as he should. Did he feel guilty? Yes, but also wanted to give he and Rachel a shot without inteferance. He knew Kurt would not let him off the hook and Kurt would take it out on Rachel.

As soon as he was finished with his shower, he wrapped a towel around his waist flexing his muscles and boxing a bit. Rachel was simply amazing, but he had to step up his game if he wanted to win her over King Tool Brody Weston. While looking in the mirror, listening to his iPod he didn't hear the door open.

Rachel: Oops sorry Blaine. *blushing while checking out Blaine's incredible body. Damn who knew what hid under his Dapper exterior. She felt hot suddenly.

Blaine jumped, but smirked as he caught Rachel Barbra Berry checking him out.

Blaine: Oh hi Rach. Sorry I'll get dressed.

Rachel: Oh take your time,.nothing haven't seen before.

Blaine smirked. "Oh really? Who's body have you seen naked? Shocker!

Rachel: I...well...um

Blaine: Speak up can't hear you *teasing*

Rachel: You know what it is rude to question a woman like that Blaine Warbler. Maybe you should put some clothes on.

Blaine: Too many layers.

Rachel blushed again and looked away.

Blaine chuckled and felt good getting the high maintenance Berry stuttering and loss for words.

Blaine: So Rach, I was wanting to ask you something.

Rachel: What is it?

Blaine: Well, I- *he was cut off by a knock at the door*

Damn, Blaine thought. Rachel opened the door, and Blaine saw red.

*knock, knock*

Rachel: Oh hi Brody. What are you doing here?

Brody stood in the doorway with shorts, sleeveless shirt, and smiled.

Brody: Hello sexy Berry. Oh hey Fraine.

Blaine: Hey Frodo.

Brody: You are hilarious. Listen Rach, its almost Fourth of July and I am having a party in my dorm.

Rachel smiled. Brody was hot, but she had been waiting for Blaine to ask her out.

Rachel: Well-

Blaine: Oh wow she would love to but we have somewhere to be. Should've asked sooner.

Rachel: We do?

Blaine: Rachel you must remember. You have it written in our matching dating calendars. You even put a heart around it. Sorry Brody man, she's dating me.

Brody gritted his teeth. " Well why don't you both come? There will be Karaoke as well.

Blaine: We will be there, now Buh Bye. *slams door in Brody's face.

Rachel stood there amazed.

Rachel: Blaine was that necessary? *trying to fight her smile*

Blaine: Yes because I, Blaine Anderson, will take you to party, sing and who knows what else. Please? Rachel Berry will you accompany me to Tool Brody's party?

Rachel: Hmmm, we do make a killer team and I can't turn a performance down. I'd love to. Now excuse me while I get ready. *Rachel headed to the bathroom*

Blaine: Need help baby?

Rachel: I'm sure I can manage. *Rachel winked,.then closed the bathroom to take her shower. She smiled. She was finally going on a date with Blaine Devon Anderson.

Blaine watched her walk away and fist pumped the air. He quickly got ready, and twenty minutes later Rachel emerged from bathroom ready to party. Pink crop top, white skater skirt,heels, light make-up and hair curled. Blaine was dapper as always.

Blaine: Wow Rae, you look amazing.

Rachel: Thanks Blaine, you do too. Shall we?

Blaine took her hand, kissed her cheek and they walked to Brody's room.

***********

A few minutes later, they arrived at party. It was packed and someone was singing Karaoke. Brody didn't look happy but Blaine could care less.

Brody: Hey guys! Glad you could make it. Rachel you look crazy sexy. Hey Blaine.

Blaine: Oh My God,.stop the presses you know my name.

Brody: Ha you're funny. *whispered to Blaine* I know what you're doing. Just know by the end of this summer Rachel will be mine.

Blaine: Whatever Manwhore.

Santana was rubbing off on Blaine.

Rachel: So Blaine how about we show these rookies how its done?

Blaine: You know it.

Rachel and Blaine walked over to the microphones.

The music started and Rachel winked at Blaine, who smiled back.

"Somebody Loves You"
(originally by Betty Who)

 [Blaine:]
 Who's around when the days feel long
 Who's around when you can't be strong
 Who's around when you're losing your mind
[Rachel:]
 Who cares that you get home safe
 Who knows you can't be replaced
 Who thinks that you're one of a kind

[Rachel and Blaine:]
 Somebody misses you when you're away
 They wanna wake up with you everyday
 Somebody wants to hear you say
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you

[Blaine:] I'm around when your head is heavy
[Rachel:] I'm around when your hands aren't steady
[Rachel and Blaine:] I'm around when your day's gone all wrong
 I care that you feel at home
[Blaine:] Cause I know that you feel alone ([Rachel:] You feel alone)
[Blaine:] I think you're going to miss me when I'm gone ([Rachel:] You're gonna miss me when I'm gone)

[Rachel and Blaine:]
 Somebody misses you when you're away
 They wanna wake up with you everyday
 Somebody wants to hear you say
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you

[Rachel and Blaine:] Why don't you come on over
[Blaine:] Why don't you lay me down ([Rachel:] Lay me Down)
 Does the pain feel better
 When I'm around
 If I am good to you
[Blaine:] Won't you be good to me ([Rachel:] Good to me)
 That's how easy this should be

 Somebody misses you when you're away (Somebody misses you baby)
 They wanna wake up with you everyday (They wanna wake up with you)
 Somebody wants to hear you say (Oh they want you to say)
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you
 Ooh somebody loves you

When they finished, the crowd cheered while suddenly it felt like the whole world disappeared and it was just Rachel and Blaine. Sexual tension in the air. Blaine leaned in quickly, capturing her lips in his.

Rachel moaned into the kiss, but soon pulled away aware of their audience.

Blaine: Lets get out of here.

Rachel: Lead the way.

Blaine grabbed her hand and walked past Brody smirking.

Rachel and Blaine walked back to dorm room kissing on the way.

Rachel grabbed her key, opening door and Blaine pushed her inside and kissed her against the door. Hands roaming all over one another. Rachel softy moaned as Blaine trailed kisses and love marks down her neck.

Rachel: Mmm Blaine, Gawd, I want you.

Blaine: You have me baby.

Rachel and Blaine walked back falling onto Rachel's bed. Clothes coming off, intense make out. Just as Blaine was about to go further, there was a knock on the door. Damn, Blaine groaned. Who was cockblocking him now?! he thought.

Blaine: Don't move. I'll answer it. Probably Brody Douchebag.

Rachel: Be nice.

Blaine: I am, except when interrupted.

Blaine got up, and looked at Rachel leaning on bed, pupils blown and sexy as hell.

Blaine opened the door ready to tell Brody off, but instead shocked to see who it was.

??: Surprise! I am so glad to see you.

Blaine: Kurt, what are you doing here?

Kurt: I came to see you. I've missed you. And what is Rachel doing here?! Someone explain.

Rachel and Blaine looked at each other and sighed

Damn date is over.......
