Prologue
Blaine blinked in the darkness. He had no idea where he was for a second, until he saw the Katy Perry poster above his bed. He was in his dorm at Dalton. The last thing he remembered, he was out to coffee with Kurt. He smirked, just the thought of the tall chestnut haired boy brought a smile to his lips. He pushed himself up and felt the creak of harsh coiled springs beneath him. The bright light from his bedside clock glared back at him, revealing it was close to 3AM. He watched as his phone buzzed across his nightstand. He picked it up and saw 5 missed calls flash across his screen.
Finally he flicked it open and pressed it to his ear. "Hello…" His voice was hoarse with sleep.
"Blaine! Is Kurt with you? Blaine?" Rachel's voice flitted through the speaker frantically.
"No… He went home. I mean I dropped him off at home. What's going on?" Blaine ran his fingers through his messy curls as he yawned into the phone.
He heard Rachel whisper to someone with her. "He isn't with Blaine."
"Rachel! What's going on?" He was sitting up now, the phone pressed closely to his ear.
He heard a deep breath from the speaker. "He never walked into the house after you dropped you off and Kurt's dad has been trying to reach him on his cell phone with no luck. No one knows where he is!"
Blaine could hear the panic surging through Rachel's voice and his heart pounded in his chest. Kurt was missing. His mind flitted through all the horrific possibilities that could have happened. He felt sick as each scenario became worse and worse. Kurt was missing. Kurt was kidnapped. Kurt was dead. No. He couldn't think that, not when Kurt needed him. "Rachel, I'm going to try to call Kurt and I'll call you right back. Okay? " He tried his best to keep his voice from breaking.
"Okay." There was a click as Rachel hung up the phone.
Blaine punched in Kurt's number. He had it memorized. It rung twice before someone answered. "Kurt! Where are you? Rachel called me, she said you never made it home…" Blaine stopped, hearing only deep breathing answer him on the other side. "Kurt?"
"Blaine." That voice was definitely not Kurt's.
