Kurt Hummel and Mercedes Jones sit in the back of the library trying to do whatever work they still haven't done. They sit in silence until Kurt realizes he hasn't told Mercedes the news yet.
"Mercedes!" Kurt says, trying to get his best friends attention.
She looks up from her text book asking, "What?"
"I have to tell you something of the utmost importance!" Kurt says, lowering his voice as he leans in closer. This is a library after all, and if Kurt is too loud Ms. Carter will yell at him. And there is nothing worse than getting yelled at by the people you care about. Ms. Carter is Kurt's favorite faculty member so he wouldn't want her to get all worked up because of him.
Mercedes seem uninterested in what Kurt has decided to tell her. She's tired of doing work and she just wants to get it done, but Kurt feels the need to interrupt anyway. Kurt doesn't seem to notice though.
"So basically," he begins, "Blaine and I are dating now!"
Mercedes raises an eyebrow. That was fast. Mercedes remembers just a couple days ago Blaine broke up with Sam because Sam had cheated on him. And now Blaine's with Kurt? Blaine didn't seem like the kind of person to jump into a relationship right after getting out of one. Even though Kurt has been in love with Blaine since freshman year, but Blaine doesn't know that. And she doubts Blaine feels the same.
"Um, Kurt, where exactly did you get that idea?" Mercedes adds, "Not to be rude or anything."
Kurt crosses his arms over his chest as Mercedes shifts uncomfortably in her chair. Kurt's beginning to wonder if Mercedes is jealous. Mercedes has never been in a relationship before. Blaine is Kurt's first relationship, and Kurt seems to think that it will also be his last.
"Mercedes, come on! Blaine just found out Sam had been cheating on him! The obvious choice is for Blaine's next relationship to be with me. We have kissed before, you know?" Kurt says. He starts to ramble on about him and Blaine, trying to convince Mercedes that they are in fact together.
Mercedes is still not buying it. Of course she wants Kurt to be happy, but she doesn't think Blaine is the right person for Kurt. And most of the time Kurt over analyzes things. He makes things out to be something that they aren't.
Hoping he'll listen, Mercedes begin to make a suggestion for him, "Kurt I think that maybe you should give Blaine some time and space to get over Sam before—."
"Mercedes, that is garbage, I mean it's not like Blaine and Sam were in love with each other. Their relationship would have never been that complex. Sam is a moron."
Mercedes rolls her eyes, "I'm not saying they were! I just think—."
Kurt stands up from where he was sitting, and glares down at Mercedes. Mercedes leans away from Kurt. He can be really scary sometimes, especially when he's looking like he's shooting fire rockets at you in his mind.
"Well, fine than Mercedes! If you don't want to be happy for your best friend than that's your problem!" Kurt says, stomping away from her.
"Calm down and stop being such a diva all the time!" She shouts back.
Mercedes glares at Kurt as he leaves. She's alone now. She thinks Kurt can be a little over dramatic sometimes. He did leave all of his stuff scattered across the table with Mercedes things. She clenches her fists at the thought of him.
Breathe Mercedes breathe, She tells herself. She doesn't want to get so worked up over him and then yell at him and hurt his feelings. Kurt is really sensitive when people get mad or yell at him. Mercedes was just trying to protect him after all. She doesn't want him to get hurt, and not everyone understands Kurt as easily as Mercedes does.
She lets out a deep breath and sighs. She brings her attention back to the book she was reading before Kurt interrupted her.
She just hopes that this doesn't turn into more drama. She has a feeling that she's wrong though. Hopefully Kurt will get something good out of this Blaine obsession.
