Love Means Nothing (in Tennis) by fallovermelikestars
Wimbledon is arguably the most prestigious tennis tournament in the world and Blaine Anderson, once America’s darling, is now only here as the wildcard. Blaine has one goal - to play tennis and then, win or lose [and his money is on lose] to retire. He doesn’t bank on Kurt Hummel, young, handsome and with a backhand that would make even Djocovic weak at the knees. The rising star. As they battle against each other for that coveted trophy, Blaine finds himself wondering: is love actually more than a zero score?

Carry Your Shame by @adiwriting
Kurt’s spent his entire life being pushed around and ignored. He’s never had a single friend until he met Blaine Anderson, a swimmer for the National Team and McKinley’s Golden Boy. When the boys fall for each other, Kurt has to learn the hard way that there are some things even love can’t fix—like the fact that his step-brother and boyfriend are mortal enemies. Will Blaine be willing to give up everything to be with Kurt or will they crumble under the pressure to become what everyone else is trying to turn them into?

Collide by @scatter-the-stars
Kurt Hummel is having a terrible week. On top of his car breaking down and his laptop dying at the worst time possible, finding his boyfriend cheating on him is the final straw against the camel’s back. A night of drinking is much deserved. But waking up in bed with star quarterback Blaine Anderson is something he doesn’t need. Determined to forget it and move on, he finds that hard when Blaine has other ideas. At first wanting nothing to do with the biggest playboy on campus, somehow Kurt finds himself agreeing to being friends with Blaine. It’s a friendship that opens his eyes to the guy he never really knew. And soon finds him wanting the one person he maybe shouldn’t want.
