AUTHOR'S NOTE: I started this fic when listening to the Glee version of 'True Colors' and imagined Mercedes singing it as a solo directed at Kurt, since I love their friendship. So, here it is!

True Colors

You with the sad eyes, don't be discouraged

Mercedes sang out beautifully. Her eyes were locked on mine, and I saw through the act that this was just another solo in glee club. She was singing to me.

Your true colors, are beautiful like a rainbow.

Show me a smile then, don't be unhappy

Can't remember when I last saw you laughing

Every word she sang was true, as I had been sort of depressed and disconnected from the group lately.

You call me up, 'cause you know I'll be there.

She will always be there for me, and I guess that I just needed to know that. Mercedes will always pick up and be right over within 10 minutes with ice cream and RENT.

I see your true colors

And that's why I love you

"It's true, white boy. That's why I love you. Just talk to me."

I nodded, with tears on the back of my eyelids. I ran up and gave her a hug, whispering in her ear,

"You're right. I'm sorry."

What did you think? Let me know by dropping a review! They're like hugs!
