Blaine was right; the work is so much harder than at McKinley.

I don't even understand half of this stuff; I didn't even learn this at McKinley. There's just so much to take in, I have science, homework, 3 essays and 2 maths exams to revise for n such a short pace of time.

I can't cope, m not clever enough.

It's too much. I've started the same essay 6 times I screwed up the paper and threw t to the floor; there was a huge pile of them on the floor. So I gave up on that and started revising for maths exam tomorrow, ugh, I hate algebra, what's the point of it?

I'm getting so stressed, I can't do this, a few tears fell and I quickly wiped them away because I don't want anyone to know.

Why can't I just be clever like everyone else? 'No Kurt, focus' I thought to myself. I began to think of how to start the second essay, I was so lost in my own thoughts that I could swear I could hear someone shout my name, but I'm too stressed to pay attention.

I can't even come up with the first sentence, a tear rolled down my face but I quickly wiped it away.

I heard footsteps approach my table "hey, I've been looking everywhere for you." Blaine. "Yeah I just have a lot of stuff to do" I said still not looking up because he'd know I'd been crying and it'd just set me off again.

He sat down opposite me "need any help?" I made the mistake of looking up as I said "no."

"Kurt, what's wrong?" worry laced in his voice when he noticed id been crying. It was all that it took for me to break down completely; I put my hands over my face and sobbed. I heard his chair slide back and I felt him pull me in for a hug and I cried into his chest.

After a while, I stopped and pulled away "sorry, I'm just so stressed, I've got so much to do, I don't understand anything, and I'm so dumb" I said. "No you're not, you're new, it takes time to adjust, let me help you" he said with his hand on my arm smiling at me.

"I don't want to bother you" I said sniffing and looked away "you're not, let me help you" "okay, thank you so much" I said smiling.

"So where do you wanna start?"
