Down the steps of McKingley, Kurt trotted. He felt the anger and shock of…what had happened slowly fade away. It was still there and it would probably always be. But it wasn't as powerful as it had been – he could now formulate a plan to properly kick Blaine in the balls.
"Kurt!" Speak of Lady Gaga. Blaine's hand grasped around his arm and he was turned around. "Kurt, Kurt, you have to believe me."
"If it wasn't for Dave, I might've. But Blaine…he had pictures! You were kissing someone. Another girl, in fact!"
"You-you don't actually believe, do you?"
"Why shouldn't I? We've made peace – there's no reason for him to lie."
"Whuh? Y-Yes there is! He…He likes you!"
Kurt scoffed. "So I should listen to that part of his song, but not the part about you? The major part about you?" Kurt shook his head, walking away if not but to put some distance between what he had to say Blaine and himself. "Blaine…"
There's a whole lot of things that I will forgive
But I just can't take a liar
I was by your side 'til the very end
'til you pushed me in the fire
Kurt turned around to look at Blaine, whose surprised face only fueled him to go on. His gaze stared down the younger boy and under the pressure, Blaine looked away. Kurt could only sigh.
I want to believe you
But something is wrong
You won't look in my eyes
Tell me what's going on
"It's you and me against the world",
That's what you said, that's what you said
If you can't be honest with me
Then I'm afraid this is the end
He looked away, not ready to say what was about to come out his mouth.
Hurry up, hurry up
He closed his eyes against the tears ready to come out his eyes.
If you ever really cared about me
Tell the truth, give it up
Kurt looked once more at Blaine and he saw the fear in his eyes.
You sound guilty,
'cause you're stutterin'
"Oh oh oh oh oh ey ey ey ey ey oh oh oh oh woah" Kurt mocked him, his face slowly turning into pissed off from the calm, hurt expression on his face.
Yeah you're stuttering
Oh oh oh oh oh ey ey ey ey ey oh oh oh oh woah
Yeah you're stuttering
Now the seconds turn into minutes now
And you won't give me an answer
Blaine opened his mouth – he did have an answer! But Kurt would hear none of it.
You can tell me this. You can tell me that.
He held up one finger, almost threatingly. "But don't say you don't remember." Slowly, Kurt was walking away, to the steps' railing. His fingers curled over it as he tried hard to keep his composure.
'Cause I know you better
Than you know yourself
So don't say 'I'm crazy'
I know very well.
"It's you and me against the world",
That's what you said, that's what you said
If you can't be honest with me
Then I'm afraid this is the end
Hurry up, hurry up
If you ever really cared about me
Tell the truth, give it up
You sound guilty,
'cause you're stutterin'
Oh oh oh oh oh ey ey ey ey ey oh oh oh oh woah
Yeah you're stuttering
Oh oh oh oh oh ey ey ey ey ey oh oh oh oh woah
Yeah you're stuttering
Kurt breathed in, turning back around. He needed to say this now, before he lost all his confidence. Kurt rose his head and stared Blaine in the eye – straight in the eye
I-I-I d-don't want to hear
You're s-so-sorry now
Th-the best thing you can do
For me is just spit it out.
Blaine wouldn't. And the anger was rising once more. Kurt started in on him with harsh heavy determined steps.
I-I-I d-don't want to hear
You're s-so-sorry now
"K-k-Kurt, I..I…" Kurt held up one finger. "Stop-stop stuttering your word." He looked down on the junior. "It's only making you look worse."
Hurry up, hurry up
If you ever really cared about me
Tell the truth, give it up
You sound guilty,
'cause you're stutterin'
Oh oh oh oh oh ey ey ey ey ey oh oh oh oh woah
Yeah you're stuttering
Oh oh oh oh oh ey ey ey ey ey oh oh oh oh woah
Yeah you're stuttering
"Yeah, You're stuttering!" Kurt finished. His voice panted and his breath exhaled. The words were out. Blaine was shocked. And Kurt felt…
Okay. He actually felt okay.
Kurt smiled – just a little one – before he began down the steps again. "Kurt!" Blaine called.
He stopped and gave Blaine back a look. "It's over, Blaine." And he walked away.
