Kurt Hummel was Mercedes best friend, it had taken a while for Kurt to let down his walls around Mercedes, and she knew he was one of the few people he can fully trust, she was one of the only people who knew when he was upset, sarcastic or just being a diva
Mercedes knew Kurt was hiding something from her, she knew the bulling had escalated and it was effecting Kurt badly. She knew Kurt was lonely and when he been withdrawing from his friends with the bulling and his father illness no one really knew what to say to him. She feel like a bad friend to him, so she trying to make it up to him. So they were having a Disney movie sleepover just the two of them.
Her parents were first worried about her friendship with Kurt, untill they relised Kurt wouldn't harm Mercedes in anyway and won't end up making Mercedes pregnant (that was a awkward conversation) They left Mercedes and Kurt to do they own things. They first they watched lion king (because they agree ot was one of the best) Then Mercedes chosen the fox and the hound then Kurt chosen the Articats but Mercedes could tell Kurt wasn't concatenate and desire to say something.
"You been really quite lately is your dad alright?"
"He's still ill but he's getting better" said Kurt sounding very distant, it was almost like he wasn't there.
Mercedes grapped Kurt arm suddenly causing Kurt to look at her bewildered "You're worried about something, really worried"
Kurt open his mouth then close it then open it again "it's nothing"
Mercedes shook her head "Cut the crap white boy, what's going on between you and Karofsky?" Mercedes watched Kurt closely seeing a hint of fear in his eyes before before Kurt put on his mask "Just the same as always"
"I know your lying Kurt" said Mercedes feeling her eye begin to water, she wanted Kurt to trust her with whatever was going on "I know the bullying is getting worst, and your not acting like yourself. I think you need to tell someone, Mr Schue.. He always has the glee kids backs"
"I can't" said Kurt as he try to push back his tears
"Why not?" Asked Mercedes, Kurt was alway honest with her, alway trusted her. She was the first person he openly admit being gay to. She was the only one who knew about his friendship with Blaine (She was glade Blaine was helping Kurt, and Kurt could talk to him because the glee girls couldn't fully understand Kurt) They alway worked together why all of a sudden he couldn't tell her what was going on was confusing. "Are you in some kind of trouble?" Kurt shoock his head but Mercedes could tell she was close to the truth "Has Karofsky got something against you?" Kurt shook his head slowly "You got something on Karofsky?" Kurt look at her shocked and slightly panic. Mercedes closes she eyes what had Kurt got himself into. Kurt was unwilling to talk about it and his jumpy behaviour the last few weeks "Kurt" said Mercedes slowly "Has he threated you?" Tears rolled down Kurt faces and he quickly wiped them away "Kurt you need to tell"
"I can't and you can't tell either" said Kurt sounding panic
"You got to tell me what's going on Kurt or I have too" said Mercedes as clamely as she could, her panicking wasn't going to do Kurt any good. She never expected what Kurt had to say.
"Karofsky gay..."
"Wait what? Dave Karofsky?" Asked Mercedes. Kurt nodded looking really upset she had a uneasy feeling "How did you find out?...Kurt"
"He kissed me" said Kurt quietly and quickly "He shoved me into the lockers, I was angry I yelled at him then he kissed me, he try again but I pushed his off"
Mercedes didn't know what to say. "He doesn't want no one to know" said Mercedes
"I not going to out someone out Mercedes" said Kurt "I couldn't, I wouldn't"
"But he threated you anyway" said Mercedes closing her eyes it was no serect that Karofsky than threat to beat up Kurt the year before before, but as far as Mercedes knew Karofsky never punch Kurt before, pushed him into locker, naming calling and the famous dumper dives but never punch him. But Kurt wasn't acting like himself, whatever threat been made Kurt believe it. "Kurt this is serious you need to tell"
"No one will believe me" said Kurt "And if they do it won't be seen as a big deal, the school ignore bulling and homophobia"
"Tell mr Schue" said Mercedes
"He can't do nothing, its the school board, Figgins" sais Kurt "Look it'll blow over soon. I don't want to cause a fuss, you cant tell no one..."
Mercedes signed wounding if she was doing to right thing "I wont tell Kurt, but I'm not letting you out of my sights"
It took half an hour to come up with a deal, Kurt would drive Mercedes too and from school (They say they working on songs together) They meet in the library at the start of break and lunch and walked to their lockers together, if Mercedes feel the situation was getting worst she would tell Mr Schueter about Karofsky harassing Kurt (she wouldn't mention the kiss or the theth unless Kurt was in immediate danger) in the end they hugged and Mercedes told Kurt to come and talk to her any time she needed then they feel asleep watching Mulan.
"what's going on with you and Kurt?" Asked Tina "You're acting like serect agents or something?" It was two days into the deal and the glee kids noticed something was going on between them.
"Kurt been a bit stressed so we're been talking" said Mercedes it wasn't a complete lie. "He's still getting over his dad heart attack it gave him a bit of a scare"
It been a over a month since the heart attack and everyone seem to have forgotten about it, "Is that why he's been a little off?" Asked Artie he didn't sound too sure.
"You're acting like a bodyguard around him" said Tina
"Well Kurt been locker slammed a lot recently" said Mercedes "And Kurt not made up as the same stuff the football or hockey team"
Artie looked at her some a moment "Something about Kurt got you worried" he said
"Look he been quite lonely lately, with everything with his dad Brough back painfully memories about his mom, and he gets bullied a hell of a lot here, he needs some TLC" said Mercedes
Tina and Artie nodded there heads and didn't asked any more questions weather they believe her was another story. "We'll meet you in the lunch hall?" Mercedes nodded her head and went to find Kurt.
Kurt was in the library reading some big book, "Hey white boy"
"Hey you took your time though you blow me off" said Kurt with a smile that Mercedes hadn't seen in a while
"I could never blow you off boy" said Mercedes linking arms with him as they walked out of the library "Sometime I wish you were straight"
"I sometime wished you were a guy" said Kurt they laught as they walked to the lunch hall.
As soon as they walked it they where hit in the face with five different slushies, Rachel and Tina quickly dragged them borth in the nearest girl bathroom, Tina went to get they spare clothes while Mercedes and Kurt clean themself up. Once they were birth looking back to normal they walks out of the bathroom.
"Kurt what were you doing in there?" Asked Mr Schuester he had a frown on his face
"Kurt and Mercedes were slushies by jocks" said Tina "and the jocks don't come in here"
Mr Schuester frowned slightly "If this happen again I give you permission to used the disabled toilet"
"Thanks Mr Schue" said Kurt with a fake smile.
