"Where are you going?" Blaine asked, his eyes pleading.
"I don't know," Kurt replied, rage in his eyes. "Somewhere away from you." The force of his words hurting Blaine more than Kurt thought they would. "What can I say to make you stay?"
"First of all, nothing! I can't believe you did that, and secondly, if you don't know that, then there's no wonder I have to leave," Kurt was sobbing. "I honestly never thought it would come to this. I thought you were special."
Kurt got in his red car, slammed the door and drove off, leaving Blaine in awe. Though somewhat intoxicated, Blaine still managed to register what was happening. Standing in the carpark of the bar, staring into the distance, he must have looked strange.
Kurt was on his phone. "Come on! Pick up, pick up, pick up!" He had no clue who he was even calling. It turned out to be Rachel, luckily, because his phone listed the most called numbers. "Hello?" Rachel's voice sounded tired. Fair enough, it was so early.
"Sorry Rachel, I know it's early but I just need someone to talk to, somewhere to go."
"Why, what happened?"
"Can I just tell you in person? Where can we meet?"
Somehow, Kurt ended up outside the Lima Bean, waiting for Rachel and standing in the cold rubbing his hands together through his designer gloves. Kurt saw Rachel's car pull up beside a sign that said "Parking - 30 minutes".
"What's wrong Kurt?" she asked. Obviously, the time of the drive hadn't been long enough for the redness of his eyes to fade. "Did Blaine do something?" The fact the Rachel knew instantly drove Kurt insane. "My stupid brother," she groaned. "What did he do?"
When Blaine got home, he saw a note on the fridge for their parents.
"Hey Dads,
Went to the Lima Bean to help Kurt.
See you in the morning."
It hurt Blaine to know that his sister forgot about him and went to go comfort her best friend instead of her brother. Although he guessed that she didn't know what happened, all she knew was that her best friend was in trouble. He was never good at expressing his feelings, and he never meant for anything to turn out the way it did. It just happened. Wait. He could find them. The note said that they went to the Lima Bean. Blaine got a pen and added to the note, "Me too - Love Blaine". Hopefully he would get back before they woke up.
It was certainly unbelievable for Kurt and Rachel to be standing outside a closed coffee shop in the Winter cold. They could certainly see some strange looks in the few cars that drove by. "Well," Kurt said. Rachel sat down and tugged his sleeve for him to also sit. "We were on a date - at Breadstix. It was kind of one of the first times we'd ever been out in public. You know - as a couple." She nodded. "Some people came up to us, some ignorant losers who thought it'd be funny if they made a big scene. They started yelling at us, swearing at us. I retaliated, because I'm just sick of being bullied by losers like them. I said, 'At least we're happy'. But Blaine just kind of disowned me as his boyfriend. It's like he was ashamed of me. He was kind of drunk."
"Oh, Kurt. I'm sorry," Rachel said. "I can't imagine what I'd do if Finn did that to me." Seeing the look on Kurt's face Rachel continued, "Sorry, sorry, it's not about me."
When Blaine got to the Lima Bean, Kurt and Rachel were still there. He was so relieved. "Kurt, I-"
"No. Don't even say anything. Just, please leave."
"Just," Blaine sighed. "I'm sorry."
He turned around, his eyes on the floor. He didn't want Kurt to see him crying. He got back in his car but sat there, thinking. He didn't want to reject Kurt, he didn't want to make him sad. He just didn't want any of this to happen.
"Kurt, you can't be so hard on him," Rachel said. "He's been through a lot in the past few years. I just hope that you won't make things worse."
"I know. I hope so too."
It probably wasn't safe for Blaine to be driving, being drunk and crying. He could barely see out of his eyes. He didn't see that a car was turning the corner. He didn't see that it was coming straight for him. He didn't see that he was in a car crash.
