In our table, I was just studying Nick and Mrs. Devaloines' movements but I couldn't tell if they are together or not cos they aren't really that sweet. Nick was just sitting next to her while looking at the other guests with a drink on his hand. I feel like I'm going to explode any time soon cos I'm sharing a table with Nick.

All of a sudden, the female wedding singer who was on stage started singing Can't Help Falling In Love while everyone was starting to gather up the dance floor. That song, I remember that song. It was what Nick sang to me while we slow danced on our first New Year's Day together. I smiled on that thought and as I move my head to him, he was already looking at me.

"Wanna dance baby cakes?" Kurt asked me.

"I would love to." I say as I gazed at Nick.

Kurt offered me a hand and I accepted it. He leads me to the dance floor and he slowly positions his hands around my waist and I placed my hands over his shoulders. I gaze at Nick, he's staring at me while I'm in the arm of another man. But then I looked away when he saw me looking at him.

"I'm glad you asked me to dance." I tell Kurt.

"I love this song, that's why." He says.

"Me too."

I swayed along the music while Kurt was leading our movement. He spins me around and spins me some more then catches me again that made me smile cos he's just cute.

"You're making me dizzy." I say.

He chuckles. "Sorry. I'm eyeing on that cute guy over there."

I looked over my shoulder then laughed softly. "And you're using me to get his attention?"

"Yes. But he's staring at you, so I'm thinking he's straight."

"You are so crazy."

My eyes moved back to our table, when I saw a very sophisticated woman who sat down right next to Nick's other side and she was so close to him too! He locked his eyes at her while they were talking. She's smiling while she was fixing Nick's tie. He didn't seem to move away from her but he just continues talking. She wasn't there before, where on earth did she come from? I looked away when Nick's head was moving back to us. I covered my eyes behind Kurt's shoulder.

"Are you okay?" Kurt asked.

I nod. "After this wedding, can we tour around Las Vegas?"

"Sure. I know all the good pubs. You feel like celebrating?"

"Yeah. Let's get wasted together."

He laughs. "Alright. Please don't let me flirt with other men. I don't want my students to caught me that'll be a great scandal."

I smirked.

I moved my head back to the table, and this time, the lady was whispering to Nick's ear. Like what the actual fuck. They are obviously flirting to each other! And even though I have no right to get mad anymore, I still can't help it. How could Nick be like this? He was never like this. He wasn't such a flirty guy.

"Kurt?" I called out.

"Yeah baby cakes?"

I looked into his eyes and he looks back at me. "Kiss me."

Kurt's eyes widened. "What?"

"Kiss me. Kiss me on my lips. Now."

His brows are creasing. "Are you out of your mind?"

"Please. I'm just... I need to do this cos--"

"Cos of that Nick guy over there? That was him, wasn't it? From your past?"

I paused for a while and nodded slowly. Kurt sighs and held my chin up so I could face him. I gazed at Nick from the corner of my eyes, and I see him looking at us now.

"Is he looking?" Kurt asked.

I nod.

"You owe me big time for this Savannah. And I hope you have a mint." He jokes.

I smiled. "You're overacting."

Kurt smiles.
