Blaine lay on the ground clutching his eye, yelling in pain. The rest of the Glee club stood around him. Kurt crouched by Blaine's side with a worried look on his face. He was trying not to think about how his boyfriend had thrown himself in front of him.
The Warblers had deserted the group. Most of the glee club looked down at Blaine in concern, but several glared after Sebastian, the person responsible for their friend's situation, as he disappeared into the darkness of the empty car park with the rest of the Warblers. Gradually Blaine's screams lessened as he tried to calm down. The silence that followed was rather unnerving.
"Blaine honey, are you okay?" Kurt said softly.
"Ow." he muttered.
"Let's get him up." said Finn, crouching beside Blaine to lend a hand.
"I'll do it." Kurt replied abruptly.
Blaine uttered a shaky laugh.
"Guys I am perfectly capable of sitting up by myself."
Kurt took Blaine's hand all the same. He sat up, his hands still clutching his eye.
"Show me." Kurt commanded.
Slowly but surely Blaine withdrew his hands from his face, wincing as he did so. Kurt gasped. Not only did his eye look painfully red, but there was a nasty scratch on it that made the group shudder.
Blaine blinked.
Then he yelled in pain. The glee club jumped.
"Sorry." he apologised, trying to rein the screams in.
It really hurt a lot.
"We should call an ambulance." said Rachel.
Mercedes flipped her mobile out. Kurt squeezed Blaine's hand.
"It's going to be okay." he said soothingly.
"You bet it will!" Santana agreed. "I'll show that jerk just what we're made of!"
The team exchanged glances. It was settled. There was no way they'd let Sebastian get away with this.
