Red. It's the color of everything. The football uniform he wore to make his father proud is red, hanging in the back of closet next to the pair of stirrup pants he'd endured for ten long weeks the one time he did baseball. Again, to appease his father. Again, in red. Red. The color his face flushes when he has any emotion. Be it confusion when Finn called him on being gay or annoyance when Mercedes busted his window. But it was a pink house Mellencamp sang about. Really, it was just watered down red. Muted. Like him.


A/N: This is the first of my "Rainbow" series. Each character will go through each color of the rainbow. (To jog your memory, the rainbow is Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet. In this case, though, I'll be doing Purple just once for each character except Kurt.)

A/N 2: The original prompt came from the LJ community: sectionals. If you like everything Glee, you should check it out. Thanks for reading!
