Kurt suddenly finds himself two years to the day in the past. So much has changed; will Kurt ever get it all back?
I wish I owned Glee.
Kurt stood in his kitchen making a sandwich, smiling at the laughter coming from the living room. Since Kurt transferred back to his old school Blaine had been coming over so often he practically lived here for the past summer. Kurt loved seeing his boyfriend bond with his step-brother, Finn, and having his amazing boyfriend around had its benefits as well.
Kurt walked in the living room holding a plate in one hand sat down on the couch. He looked up at the T.V., football players crashing into each other and scores flashing up on the screen. He couldn't help but smile as he watched the two boys jump in the air every few minutes.
Suddenly Finn and Blaine leaped up, spilling their dinners on the floor as they celebrated. Hoots and hollers filled the room.
"Okay. I'm out of here. Goodnight guys." Finn stretched and flipped off the T.V. He took his plate into the kitchen and walked upstairs.
"Let's go to bed too Kurt." Blaine smiled sweetly at Kurt as he offered his hand to his boyfriend. Together they walked upstairs and after they both took showers Blaine kissed Kurt on the forehead and climbed in bed beside Kurt. They fell asleep in each other's arms.
When Kurt's alarm clock went off the next morning he flipped it off and stretched his limbs out. He reached over to grab Blaine's hand and was surprised to find the whole side of the bed was empty.
"Blaine?" Kurt mumbled as he sat up. He always woke up first.
Maybe he is already getting ready for school. Kurt thought
He slid out of bed and looked in the mirror. When he looked in his closet he noticed the blue raincoat he thought he had lost months prior. Happy with his new discovery, he got dressed quickly before settling down to do his moisturizing routine. He noticed he was missing two bottles of cream and somehow his old brush had reappeared on the counter; his new one nowhere in sight.
"Alright Finn, and I don't think Blaine would do this, where are they?" Kurt shouted into the hallway.
"Kurt?" Kurt heard his dad's voice from the hallway. "Who are you talking to?"
"Hey dad, one of the boys took my moisturizing stuff." Kurt rolled his eyes and smiled.
"Kurt, I'm sorry. Try to ignore the, what did you call them, Neanderthals."
Kurt instantly was confused. His dad looked different today; maybe he wasn't feeling great.
"Well, I'm going to school now. See you later; love you!" Kurt smiled and began walking down the stairs.
"You seem happy today. Good improvement since yesterday." His dad smiled.
Kurt didn't remember being unhappy yesterday; wait, he had had a little fit after his cream pie had been put in the freezer instead of the fridge.
"Sorry about that, it was silly." Kurt mumbled.
"Bullies are nothing silly to be afraid of Kurt." Burt looked sad. "I'm sorry."
"Um, thanks?" Kurt walked downstairs. Where was Blaine? He noticed Finn's car wasn't here. Neither were Blaine's or Carole's. Kurt sighed. Everyone got an early start today and forgot to tell him.
He walked into the kitchen and noticed how clean it was. It was a wreck last night! Who decided to clean the horrid mess that was the previous night of football munchies? Kurt chuckled before grabbing his car keys.
Hey walked to his car and slid in. The first thing he noticed was his missing post-it. The one he always had on his dashboard. It was the exact one he found on his locker half a year ago. It said, "I'll meet you at the Lima Bean." And then a heart doodle. Kurt had run his finger over the heart so many times the ink had begun to fade.
Kurt was ticked off when he realized it had disappeared. He searched the car before giving up.
When he arrived at Mickenly he saw Quinn walking with Santana towards the entrance. Why were they both wearing their uniforms? Santana went on 'cheerleading strike' a few days prior.
Kurt figured she must have caved and stepped out of his car. He started towards them when he felt himself being pinned up against a dumpster.
"Trying to get past us fairy boy?" David Karofsky laughed in Kurt's face. Two beefy boys stood behind him.
"Yeah fairy boy." The other two grunted.
"Dave!" Kurt squeaked. "What.. Bully Whips..?"
"What did you just call me queer?"
"I said the Bully Whips! You said you were sorry!" Kurt yelled at David.
"What the… throw him in!" And with that Kurt was tossed into the dumpster.
Kurt managed to climb out and silently sure David for breaking his promise. He seemed so sincere… Kurt was still angry when he passed Mr. Shue in the hallway.
"Mr. Shu? Can I talk to you?" The Spanish teacher turned around to see which student had called him.
"Um, sure, do I have you in one of my classes?" Kurt paled. Something was off. A cruel joke, or a wicked twist of fate. Mr. Shue noticed the boy's lightening skin tone and pulled him into his office.
"Your name is.."
"Kurt... Kurt Hummel."
" Did I have you last semester?" Kurt shook his head.
"What did you want to talk about?"
"Well, do we have Glee today?" The teacher looked at Kurt like he had two heads.
"Glee club? I don't know. I didn't even know this school had a Glee club." Mr. Shue smiled sadly at the boy.
"Umm, thanks anyway, okay bye!" Kurt rushed out of his office. He ran to his locker and opened it. He stared at the locker door. He frowned and stared and felt tears prick his eyes.
There was no picture of Blaine.
Kurt took a steading breath. He needed to figure out what was going on.
He tried to remember if anything had happened last night, anything at all. He couldn't think of a single thing. Just falling asleep in Blaine's arms of course. Oh God, Blaine.
Kurt needed Blaine. He needed to feel his tough hands in his, he need to press his lips to Blaine's velvety soft ones. He needed to breath in the scent of Blaine and hold him in his arms; never let him go. He needed to laugh as Blaine's lighthearted personality made everything fun, he wanted to snuggle close to him as they watched a Disney movie for the second time in a week, and most of all he desperately needed his boyfriend to appear and tell him everything was going to be okay, because right now nothing felt like it ever would be again.
Kurt closed his stinging eyes and buried his face in his locker.
"Are you okay?" Mercedes stood outside of the boy's locker; a worried look on her face.
"Mercedes! Thank God!" He resisted the urge to hug her to death.
She looked shocked.
"Um, you remembered my name." Kurt looked taken aback.
"I mean, I remembered yours too! Kurt, right?"
He nodded. He needed to tell her.
"You sure you're okay boy?" She looked worried.
He nodded again. She smiled by and begun to walk off.
"Wait! Mercedes Eliza Jones."
She stopped in her tracks.
"I have never told anyone my middle name. So either you have seriously stalked me, or you have some explaining to do."
"Oh boy do I have some explaining to do." Kurt sighed.
"So, you and I are best friends, we have told each other everything, and you think you have been transported back two years to the day?"
"No, I KNOW I have!" Kurt sighed, "Yesterday I went to bed on August 20, 2011. Your cell phone right now says August 20, 2009!"
"Besides knowing my middle name, what else do you know."
"You asked for it." Kurt moaned.
" Will Shuster will start a Glee Club here and It will be thought of as completely uncool. Quinn Fabray will become pregnant with Noah Puckerman's child later this year. Finn Hudson is an amazing singer and will become my step-brother when his mom marries my dad, Santana is a closeted lesbian and so is Brittney S. Pierce. They will get together too. We will lose sectionals, but tie with the Dalton Academy Warblers at regionals and then place twelfth at nationals in New York. Rachel Berry is a self-centered girl who thinks stars are her trademark and has an amazing voice, but she knows that. David Karofsky is a closeted gay who will soon force me to change schools and transfer to Dalton Academy where I will meet Blaine Anderson and fall in love. You will meet Sam, a new kid at our school next year and fall in love too. Eventually I will transfer back to Mickenly and the main bully will have started an anti-bulling league. I will prom queen as a cruel joke, but it turns out okay. You-," Kurt started to choke on his words. Tears were falling down his face.
"Oh God Mercedes! Please believe me!" He looked into her eyes.
"I.. I do." She muttered.
Kurt smiled at Mercedes. "Oh thank goodness!" he hugged her
She hugged him back, already guilty of her little lie.
Kurt went through his classes; quickly falling back his old habits from a couple years ago. He kept checking his phone for Blaine texts, and frowned whenever he remembered Blaine wasn't his now.
After school Kurt checked the choir room. It was empty and bland; dust covering everything. He sighed. He tried to think back to two years ago. He hadn't even heard of the Lima Bean. He decided to change that and go to the small café.
After parking in the lot he walked into the coffee shop. Hardly a thing had changed. A cute couple sat at the 'Klaine' table instead though. Kurt had hoped Blaine would be there. He needed to see if his boyfriend was truly still on Earth; just seeing him would help fill the longing to be with him. Plus, seeing Blaine two years younger would be a plus.
Kurt walked to the counter; the lady looked at him funny and Kurt realized he was not a regular there, and Blaine would not be ordering for him anytime soon.
"Oh sorry" Kurt mumbled before actually ordering for himself.
He waited for the couple to leave before sitting down at Blaine and his table. When he closed his eyes and inhaled the coffee at the familiar table, he could almost pretend Blaine was there and everything was normal. Tears threatened to spill over when he remembered everything was not normal, and most definitely NOT okay.
Suddenly he heard laughter from the door. Wes, David, and Clarence came laughing through the doors in Dalton Blazers. Wes and David hadn't changed much. Maybe a few inches shorter, with slightly different hair styles; but still Wes and David.
Kurt smiled to himself. He wanted to have a little fun here, and he needed to see if his future boyfriend actually existed. He got up and pretended to bump accidentally into Wes's shoulder.
"Sorry man" Wes mumbled over his shoulder to Kurt.
"Woah! Wes? David? Clarence? Good to see you guys!" Kurt smiled widely.
The three looked confused.
"Um, hey.."
"Kurt!" Kurt smiled.
"Hey Kurt!" The three chuckled nervously.
"Blaine's told me all about you guys." Kurt held his breath. This would prove if Blaine was in fact Blaine.
"Oh.. Blaine Anderson?" Clarence asked.
"Short guy with dark curls and adorable cheek bones?" Kurt stumbled over 'adorable', that was not meant to come out.
The three stared at Kurt before bursting out into laughter.
"Ohh Blaine hasn't told us about you yet!" David laughed
"This should be interesting!" Wes added with more laughter.
"Oh no, he didn't show you his Harry Potter collection, did he? Clarence chuckled
Kurt fondly remembered cuddling his boyfriend many moons ago while he flaunted over his extensive collection; complete with action figures of every main character, movie stubs from every movie, and all seven books, all very worn from extensive late-night reading.
"I liked it. It had charm. And, like, twelve wizard Barbie's!" Kurt laughed.
The whole group laughed again in agreement and Wes thumped Kurt on the arm.
"I think I like you Kurt." Wes said through the laughing.
"Me too!" David and Clarence added.
"Did you know he has a pear-shaped birthmark on the back of his neck?" Kurt almost felt bad for Blaine when his friends got back to him.
"No fricken' way!" Wes mumbled, "We have to see that!"
"Wow. For never having kissed a guy, he let you go pretty far."
"He's never kissed anyone?"
"Nope. Except you."
"We didn't kiss!" Kurt didn't want to ruin Blaine's life.
The three boys looked at him with questioning looks.
"Um dude, you know more about him than his parents."
"Yeah. That's weird."
Kurt felt horrible all the sudden.
"Well, nice meeting you guys. Wes, David, Clarence." And Kurt walked out of the shop.
"How did he remember our names? Blaine must of told him more names than just our names, and even then how did he know who was who?"
"He was odd David." David nodded in agreement.
"Very odd Wes."
Twenty minutes later Kurt arrived home. He walked in the kitchen; the lack of mess very upsetting.
He then flopped on the couch and closed his eyes. He really wished this would just be a dream he would wake up from soon.
