Blaine

'Sorry.' Was all he said. He didn't know why he was apologising because he wasn't sorry at all but the look on his father's face told him that he should be.

'You don't have to be sorry Blaine sweetie, it's who you are and we understand that' his mother, small and elegant smiled at her son but there was something behind it, something she was hiding.

'I know' Blaine sighed. How should he do this? There wasn't a guidebook or manual for this kind of thing 'Dad?' Blaine prompted his father, whose face didn't change when he looked up.

'Are you sure?' he wasn't looking at Blaine, he looked past him to the photo of Blaine in his younger days, happy and carefree, smiling at his birthday party ten years ago.

He resisted the urge to both sigh and laugh. This had been on his mind for a long time and yes he was sure. He looked at his father and then to his mother.

'I'm sure. I've wanted to tell you for a while but didn't know how. I'm glad I told you and for the purposes of now you don't have to understand I just want to know that you still love me and that you will help me when I need you? I'm gay. That's obviously not what you planned for me and I know that you are probably more upset than you're showing and I thank you for that but I'm sure about this. I've never been so sure about anything.' He paused and stared at the floor. He heaved a sigh and went on 'please...'

He didn't finish. At that last statement his mother burst into tears running across the room to hug her son tightly repeating over and over how much she loved him and always will no matter what. While he hugged his mother in return he could help but notice his father, across the room with the same look.

'Dad?' when he spoke his father glanced at him and sighed.

'Well if you're sure. I still love you but this will be … hard. It's your decision and I respect you for telling us but…' he paused and looked again at the photo and back at his son 'not everyone will be understanding of your decision and people will—' he couldn't carry on and Blaine understood why. A lot of the people at his school were brought up to think that being gay is wrong and it's just 'bad choices' or that you were 'sent by the devil' and the worst one that being gay was a 'disease'.

He shuddered knowing what would happen when everyone at school found out, and when they told their parents. He knew what would happen but being gay is who he is and no amount of, well anything, could change that.

'I know Dad. It's who I am and I don't want to hide it anymore.' At this his father nodded and hugged his son.

Blaine smiled but couldn't help but think of what everyone at school would do when they found out. His stomach knotted.


The next day Blaine woke to find an empty house. He wandered aimlessly, thinking of the previous night, and smiled he could be himself around his family and nothing could take that away from him.

He decided though for a while he shouldn't tell anyone at school. They would react differently and he wasn't ready for that yet. So he got dressed and started towards the door and paused, hesitant to open it. He didn't know why, everyone at school still saw him the same but there was something in him that was different and that maybe someone would see.

He sighed and told himself how stupid he was being and headed out the door.

The day passed and no one noticed the difference. He was just the same to everyone as he had been the day before.

'It's because I'm pretending at school isn't it?' he groaned. Pushing his curly locks from his face he turned to Alex.

'That could be the reason' she laughed. Alex, who had been Blaine's best friend since they could remember, skipped ahead of him and indicated to the store.

'This is not funny and I want to go home. Please Alex.' He pleaded giving his best puppy dog look.

She sighed and walked back over to him placing one arm on his shoulder. 'Why are you so bothered what people think anyway? You never cared before and as long as you're happy it doesn't really matter. You said yourself that you feel happier now you've told your parents. You're gay …' Blaine shushed her looking around in fear that someone from school would have heard her but she carried on anyway. 'Big deal let them say whatever they want.' She glanced at Blaine and laughed 'if looks could kill huh? Come on you.' And she skipped away leaving an angry Blaine in her wake.

'If they find out…' Blaine had concerns on whether she could keep a secret this big for very long.

'Oh keep your pants on gay pride I won't tell anyone.' She laughed.

The Beatles – Twist and Shout suddenly blared from Alex's phone filling the deserted street.

'You better not. I don't want anyone to know yet.' Blaine mumbled, loud enough for her to hear. She winked at him, answering her phone and entering the house.


'Good morning sunshine. Where were you earlier I was lonely.' Alex smiled

'Hi Alex. I had to get my guitar I forgot it this morning, I woke up late'

'A text would have been nice. Anyway we have English after this.' she rolled her eyes and sat down.

'But my love how you cannot love the immortal words of …' Blaine's dramatics stopped and he turned to Alex 'um…I can't remember the author's name. So the words aren't so immortal after all'

She gave him a playful shove as the bell rang. 'We better get to class come on.'

'Yes because I wouldn't want to be late for Miss Jennings' He smirked and hopped off the bench.

'oh you're too mean'

'Too mean? She can't handle her class! I'm surprised she still has a job'

'and you would be better? If you were a teacher I would walk in to find your class singing Disney songs and you sitting cross legged on a desk with your guitar.'

'Don't act like you wouldn't want to join in!'

They walked down the crowd corridor laughing and talking not knowing what was about to happen.

'What have you got against me? Ever since you got here you have hated me!' Blaine shaking from anger stood in the middle of the room face to face with Brad.

'Back off queer.'

Blaine momentarily stiffened at the bully's remark but let it pass.

'Boys sit down at once!' the teacher spoke, clearly unable to handle her own class, barely audible over the boys argument.

'You walk around here like you own the place leaving fear throughout the school but you have taken it upon yourself to make my life a living hell!' he couldn't remember why he was shouting at Brad just that he deserved it. The wide eyes around the room darted between Blaine and Brad awaiting the next blow in this long awaited argument. The silence was deafening.

Anger clear in his eyes Brad looked upon Blaine. 'Who do you think you are? Shouting at me like this you and your little girlfriend had this all coming. You deserve this!'

That did it. Blaine forgot where he was and the words left him before he realised what he was saying. 'Why? Because I'm gay?'


A/N: I will keep writing but I don't know whether to publish anymore of it. Should I? I've started writing it so it won't matter. :)
