Just a couple of things about the story:

1.) It begins at Original Song, but for the sake of the story, we're going to assume that they aren't together yet. I know, it was AMAZING, but it's important to the plot that it hasn't happened.

2.) All the songs they sing here (unless the singer's name is mentioned) were written by me. This is my sort of practice for writing songs and becoming a better writer in general. Sorry if they aren't so good... they're written from the point of view of whoever is singing them, and I wrote them specifically for this story.

Disclaimer: I don't own Glee. Or AVPM/S, since there will probably be quotes.

Chapter One

"Oh my God. They're doing original songs!" Kurt whispered excitedly to Blaine.

Sitting in the audience at Regionals and watching Rachel perform, it was obvious to Kurt that "Get It Right" was about Finn. Honestly, he felt bad for the brunette singing on the stage. She may have been insane, but she was in love... with his step-brother. He made a mental note to ask Finn later about what had happened between them. He sighed as he forced himself to concentrate on the song all the way to the end instead of thinking about what Finn could've possibly done this time to make Rachel actually write a good song... he had heard Brittany singing "My Headband" and laughed when he learned where it came from.

Apparently, Blaine either heard him sighing or could read his mind (it was most likely the former) because he leaned over -distractingly close- and whispered, "What's the matter?"

Instead of answering him and earning a glare from Wes, Kurt shook his head and took out his cell phone. He quickly typed Just thinking about the song. It was a great idea to write them for the competition. Think Wes would let us try it sometime? -Kurt :) and sent it to the boy sitting next to him. A few seconds later, he got two alerts that made his phone vibrate in his hands.

Maybe? We could always just do it anyway... -Blaine (:

Can you and lover-boy stop texting and pay attention please? These are your friends... they didn't text during your solo. -Wes :D

Rolling his eyes, he nodded to Blaine and threw his best glare over to Wes. Still, he put the phone away and concentrated once again on the performance as "Ladies and gentlemen, the New Directions!" rang out through the auditorium. Another song began, so Kurt started throwing out the L foam fingers and stood up. He laughed as they got covered in red confetti from slushie cups. That was something he didn't miss at all from McKinley High. After the announcements of who won, Kurt and Blaine went to find the countertenor's friends. Apparently, they were looking for him too, because when Brittany saw them she shouted, "I found him!" to the group and attacked the former New Directions' member in a hug.

"Hey Britt!" Kurt wrapped his arms around her waist and slowly pulled away to greet everyone else. "Congratulations guys! You're going to Nationals... in New York!"

"And your songs were amazing," Blaine added. "Speaking from experience I take it?"

"You have no idea white boy," Mercedes answered, crossing the 10 foot distance to hug her best friend.

"That's the best way to write songs," Rachel explained. "You have to really dig deep and let your emotions show. That way, people can relate." Kurt raised one eyebrow, glanced at Blaine smiling and shaking his head slightly, and turned to everyone else as Santana groaned. He knew from experience that Rachel Berry speeches were frequent and could become very annoying very quickly.

"Actually," Blaine interjected, "I totally get it. I used to write songs all the time."

"Really?" Kurt questioned. "You never told me that." The shorter boy shrugged as if to say, I didn't know it was important.

"Well, let's hear one!" Brittany said excitedly. She pulled out a seat and grabbed a guitar. He wasn't sure how she got it, or how she knew he played guitar at all, but judging by the look of amusement on Kurt's face, he wasn't going to be able to get out of it. He took a deep breath, looked at everyone staring at him expectantly, and began to play. Automatically, a song came into his head that he had started writing after meeting Kurt. It was a work in progress, but it would have to do for now.

Life is a long road
So everybody stops to hide
But if they had kept going
They may have found it worth the ride
And maybe they just didn't know
Exactly where to go
But that's the best place to be, yeah

Sometimes all you need
Is someone to help you along
It isn't always obvious who it's supposed to be
But you're the only one I can think of

Come take a chance with me
I'll help you solve the mysteries
Don't be scared, just take my hand
We can figure it out together
And maybe our mission isn't so clear
Maybe the answer's always been here
All I know is if you don't risk it all
You'll never find out
So don't remain a mystery to me

Blaine played a few more notes on the guitar before setting it down and looking at the people around him. They had dropped their jaws (he really hoped that was a good sign). Whether it was because of his voice, the song, or the fact that he actually had something to sing, the Warbler took it as a good sign.

"So..," Santana began slowly, having been the one who usually comes around quickest, "Who's the song about?" Kurt gave her a look as if to say, Don't push it. She just rolled her eyes at it.

"Oh. Um.. it was just, umm..," he stuttered, blushing.

"You don't have to answer that, Blaine," Kurt said quickly, noticing the boy's reluctance to her innocent (maybe... he had heard about Santana before) question. Blaine sent him a small thank you look. "We should be going anyway. Wes will freak out if he can't find us. Bye guys! I'll talk to you later." Kurt handed the guitar back to Brittany and pulled his friend along in the direction they had come from. When they got around a corner, Kurt checked to make sure nobody was listening. Then he turned to the song writer expectantly.

"Well?" he asked.

"Well what?"

"Who's the song about?" The curiosity was seeping through his words, so Blaine (as the best friend) decided to mess with him. Wes and David would be so proud.

"You'd like to know, wouldn't you?" And the puppy dog face would come in three, two, one; there it was. Too bad Blaine was a sucker for Kurt's puppy dog face. "I'll tell you when I finish it. Let's go, Wes is actually probably wondering where we are. You know he'd love to put that gavel to good use on us..."

The two ran off towards the rest of the Dalton Academy Warblers. The whole way, Kurt kept giving Blaine sideways glances. No matter what it took, he was going to get more songs out of him. In fact, he may need help with this new little project... He pulled his phone out once they got to the rest of the group and typed away furiously.

Wes. David. I need help. It involves getting some things out of Blaine. Can you help me? It'll be worth it in the end, I swear. Can I depend on your evil masterminds? -Kurt :)

A few seconds later, he saw Wes and David pull out their phones, look at each other, and nod. They both texted back pretty quickly.

No problem. You know we love digging up dirt on you two. Meet in our room at 8:00 tomorrow morning and we'll get started. Mysteries shall be uncovered! -David :D

A chance to embarrass our little Blainey? We're definitely up for it. I knew there was a reason I liked you. I'm assuming David told you the time and place. -Wes :D

Kurt smiled to himself as he put the phone back into his pocket. At Blaine's curious look, he just shook his head. Then he caught the eyes of his new assistants. They smirked, as if they knew this was going to be good. Kurt just hoped it would have good results.

So what do you think? If you liked it the song and want to hear it/see the rest, leave me your email in a PM and I'll send it to you. It's called Mystery (and it's a work in progress). Also, how often should I include a song? I don't know if I should have one in every chapter or not... anyway, reviews=love and faster updates! Later chapters will be longer, I promise.

Thanks for reading!
-Valerie :)
