Caleb has a plan. A way things are going to go during his high school life in the Dalton All Boys Academy. He's had a plan since he started freshmen year last year. Now he's a sophomore. Officially eligible to audition for the school's glee club, the warblers. Not only is being the member of the warblers a shoe-in as one of the most popular boys in school, but, he will also have a legitimate reason to spend time looking at, or interacting with Blaine Anderson.

Blaine Anderson is arguably the most popular guy in school. And for good reason. The boy looks like he came out of a 1950s movie poster, he has the charm that could rival prince charming's, and he is dapper as hell. And Caleb might be, a little bit (a whole lot), hopelessly in love with him.

At 14, Blaine was the first openly gay boy Caleb had the pleasure of meeting. Blaine was 16 then, but really, what is age when it comes to true love? And Caleb had fallen in love with him. Instantly. He had met Blaine first time, (and he uses the term 'met' very loosely) at a house party his big brother Eaton- also a Warbler - threw just after the end of his sophomore year. It was a few days before Caleb started high-school and he had watched Blaine perform 'I kissed a girl' by Katy Perry during the party. The older boy was drunk and was bobbing his head to the rhythm with an almost worrying intensity, but Caleb had still never seen anything more beautiful.

And since then, Caleb has continued to look for Blaine everywhere on school grounds. He has never had enough courage to actually strike a conversation with Blaine, but he had sighed and groaned and moaned while watching the older boy smile and dance and give a speech enough times to know that what he felt for Blaine was legitimate.

But now Caleb was a sophomore to blaine's junior, and was officially eligible to audition for the warblers. He was going to get into the glee club, become one of the cool kids, and make Blaine fall in love with his easy personality and ability to harmonize. But first,

He really needed to do something about the ridiculous copper colored bird nest that was his hair. Caleb looked at it critically, he never really got a hang of the whole hairspray business, so that was definitely out of option. He could try to gel it down like Blaine does, but he really didn't want to be like one of those kids that tried to copy and emulate everything that Blaine did. He could use a hairband to push back all of those unruly bangs from his face. It would really save him some time, and won't look half bad.

With a nod, Caleb picked up the black hair band, and slid it up his hair. Really not that bad.

Caleb tried to calm his breathing as he straightened his uniform one last time and opened the door to his dorm room. Today, was the day club activities started. That means, it was the day of the Warbler auditions. He had chosen 'Hummingbird' a Katy Perry song because he knew how much Blaine appreciated her. The first way to get your crush to acknowledge you would be to show them that you shared common interests. And whilst Katy Perry might not really be his cup of tea, she wasn't really half bad either.

Caleb was suffering through his English class, anxiously waiting for the Warbler auditions at the end of the day when he heard the news, apparently the warblers were putting on an impromptu performance in the senior commons area. The teacher didn't even try to stop them as they all leaped out of their classes, rushing over to hear the warblers sing. Caleb felt giddy at the idea of being able to see the object of all his affection and fantasies before the end of the day. He felt like skipping.

Caleb thought he saw Blaine walking down the staircase when he made his way towards the hallway, and for a moment, he contemplated gaining us attention with a tap on the shoulder, but before he could think too hard about it, someone else was already doing it,

"Excuse me, Can I ask you a question? I'm new here." Caleb stared at the back of the strange boy's head critically. His voice was soft, and he wore a leather jacket with bondage shorts from what he could see from the guy's behind. There was no way the guy was actually new.

But Blaine, poor, innocent, sometimes oblivious to a fault Blaine, just smiled wide, and extended a hand for a handshake,

"My name's Blaine."

"Kurt." the boy, 'Kurt' if that was even his real name, looked around, "So what exactly is going on here?"

"The warblers! Every now and then, we like to put on little impromptu performances in the seniors commons," Blaine shrugged modestly, and Caleb couldn't help but notice how cute he looked. Caleb couldn't see the other boy's face, and he honestly didn't want to, any boy who considered wearing bondage shorts and a pimp jacket would never get along with him anyway. And Caleb was completely disregarding the knee high socks or the leather satchel. That boy was like something from a perverted old man's school boy fantasies.

"So, the glee club's kinda cool here?" Caleb wanted to scoff. The warblers were like--

"The warblers are like rock stars." Blaine tilted his head towards the opposite direction from where everybody else was going, and Caleb furrowed his brow, "Come on, I know a shortcut."

A short cut? The commons room was right ahead? Why would he take the boy in the opposite direction?

Caleb almost wanted to follow them, but before he could, Blaine had grabbed the boy's hand, and they were running towards the empty hallway. Running. In Dalton. Caleb felt scandalized for a second, but was brought out of it from by a pat on the back from Jeremy, his dorm mate,

"Come on man, or we won't get any good seats."

Caleb followed him with a nod, figuring he would ask his brother Eaton about shortcuts in Dalton.

When they did reach the commons, trying to shove and squeeze through all the older boys as respectfully as possible, Blaine and that stranger still weren't there. The rest of the warblers themselves looked a bit intrigued as they moved the furniture around a bit to make space for a dance floor. It was a shame really, Caleb had heard a lot about Blaine's compulsion of wanting to climb on everything while singing. He was looking forward to that a little bit.

The warblers had just begun to look a bit nervous of their soloist's late arrival when Blaine showed up, still holding the boy's hand. He dropped it and they exchanged a few words, Caleb becoming more and more confused as Blaine trailed his hand down the boy's jacket lapel. What the hell was going on? But before Caleb could over think any of it, the rest of the warblers started harmonizing, and blaine joined them, maintaining eye contact with the stranger through most of the song.

Caleb felt something simmer in the pit of his belly as he watched Blaine make his way back to the boy after the end of the performance, a giant grin on his face reciprocated by the other boy's wide smile and clapping hands. It was only when he noticed both Wes and David joining the two of them that Caleb relaxed. Looks like they noticed the lie. Of course they did. The council wasn't stupid, and neither was Blaine. Caleb would bet good money that the boy was actually a spy.

When the four of then left the commons, the boy looking a bit pale and sheepish, Caleb smiled to himself. He wished he could see what his three upperclassmen would do to the intruder, but he did have a song to prepare after all. He was going to blow Blaine away with his audition.

Caleb had thought that that was the end of it. That strange kid was gone, and Caleb would never have to think about him again.

He was so wrong...
