CHAPTER 8: IT CAN BE WORSE

CHAPTER 8: IT CAN BE WORSE

Blaine pretended to be tired, so he could go to his room early. Sam didn't worry because he was used to the pregnancy and the changes his best friend had because of that. Blaine closed the door and he laid in his bed. One of his hand was caressing his belly while he looked for a number in his phone.

"Hi Blainey-Days! What can I do for you?" A female voice was heard and he smiled. All those years didn't change what he felt for this girl.

"Tina... I was close to make the biggest mistake in my life!" Blaine scared Tina, who thought that the mistake was about Kurt and she didn't like it.

"What's wrong?"

"I was near to kiss Sam!" She realised he was sad, but she wanted to gossip first.

"What?! You have to tell me everything!"

Blaine talk to her, really ashamed. He felt like a predatory gay who don't know where are the limits between a friendship and love.

"Bee... I don't think Sam thinks that about you. I've been years telling you should tell him about your feelings. Sam's not a High School crush like you were for me. You love him... You are in love with him and he should know it." Tina insisted. She knew Sam was in love too, and she was worried. They could have been a couple for five years, but they had hid his love.

"I don't wanna lose him. I need him by my side, even more now because of my pregnancy."

"You'll never lose him. Please, Blaine... Tell him..."

"I can't, Tina, I can't."

Sam waited half an hour to be sure Blaine was sleeping. He needed to call someone, but Blaine shouldn't know about it. He knew what had happened, or almost happened, and he had been waiting for it for so long. However, he was scared because he didn't know if Blaine loved him back. He was relieved because he hadn't kissed Blaine. He wasn't ready for losing his best friend.

"Hi, Sammy-Days!" Sam didn't realised Tina was tired. After her talk with Blaine, she was waiting Sam's call.

"Hi, Tina. I need to talk... Blaine and I... We almost kissed!"

"I don't understand why it's 'almost'. You should kiss him."

"I don't want to lose him! He needs me more than ever. I want to be next to him."

"What if Blaine loves you back? You would be so happy, the baby would have two fathers and everything would be so easy. You have to be brave and tell him. You don't need to do it big, something simple would be perfect."

"I can wait."

After saying goodbye, Tina looked Mike. They were together for a few months then and she had told him about that secret.

"We need to go to New York." She said.

"I have some days off on Christmas, but they will be with their families..."

"No, they won't. They will be on New York."

"I think we will be on New York really soon."

Blaine and Sam were watching Avatar, Sam's favourite films, and eating junk food. They would never stop doing it. The bell ring and both of them were surprised.

Sam opened the door and saw a policeman. Rodriguez was about forty years old and a handsome latin man. Blaine and Sam knew him because he was in Blaine's research.

"Hi, Sam. Is Blaine here?"

"Yes, he is. Come in."

The police man sat down on the couch while Sam sat down next to Blaine and held his hand.

"We found a group of murderers. They had killed a girl after raping her. We thought they were the same who violated you, so we did a DNA test. We were right, they were them."

Blaine was calm, it was good news. They wouldn't find him again. However, he heard a sob and he knew it wasn't his. He looked at his best friend and he was crying.

"Sam... What's wrong?" Blaine hugged him.

"They could kill you like they did with that girl... What would I do without you? I can't, I can't..." Sam couldn't breath. Blaine was trying to comfort him.

"Sam, please."

"Blaine needs you." Rodriguez said. He knew them for three months and he had realised how strong their relationship was. Maybe he didn't understand why, but he knew he can stop Sam's cry with those words.

When Sam was more calm, Blaine decided to talk. "And now... What?"

"You will see him and you have to talk with the judge. It will be difficult, but it's the best. You will need support, but I guess Sam will be with you.

Sam was in his bed, still awoke. He couldn't sleep because what happened that afternoon. Thinking about his best friend being killed was scared. He couldn't imagine his world without Blaine in it.

He went to Blaine's room, he knew he needed to see him. When he was there, he laid next to his best friend, waking him up.

"I'm sorry. I can't sleep."

"It's because what happened, isn't it?" Sam nodded. "I'm fine, don't worry."

"I will be worried if I don't protect you and the baby." Blaine smiled and moved for letting his best friend sleep with him. "Whould you mind if you lay in your side? It's the only way I can touch you both."

Blaine didn't say anything, he did what his friend asked. He realised Sam was spooning him and his hand arrived to Blaine's belly. Then, he undertood what Sam had said. They closed their eyes and tried to sleep. They didn't think about it was rare to see two friends like that or when Sam smelt Blaine's hair to calm him down. They hided his love behind a friendship that few people could understand. However, no one was brave enough to say aloud 'I love you'. The question was... How many time could they live like that?
