Hey everyone! I hope you enjoy this tale! It randomly came to me and I got super excited to write it. This is based strictly off the movie. I'm just adding a few scenes and moving around a few things. But don't worry; it will still be a loveable story. Enjoy!
(I don't own glee, Princess Diaries or the characters thereof)
Blaine Anderson sat in his room looking at the view of Lima, Ohio, in his school uniform dreading the day. Blaine was a dork. He had one friend and he was a member of the choir. It didn't help that he wore glasses and his curly hair was untamable. He tried but he eventually just gave up. It also didn't help that Blaine had terrible stage fright and he had to give a speech in his debate class today. It wasn't too late to pretend to be sick, right? He opened his blinds to see better when he heard his mother, Pam calling for him.
"Time for school! Stop daydreaming! You'll be late!"
Blaine shrugged and moved himself from his spot and turned to look at his cat sitting on his chair.
"Hey, Louie. Come on. It's time to go to school."
Blaine picked Louie up and started giving him small snuggles and kisses while heading downstairs. Blaine loved his room. He and his mother lived in an old and abandoned fire house that his mom had fixed up. His room happened to have a loft at the top that he liked to go to whenever he was having a bad day. He placed Louie on his cat house, grabbed his backpack, jumped on the fire hose and headed downstairs to meet his mom.
"Are you feeling confident?" Pam asked when Blaine landed in the kitchen.
"Not really."
"Okay now just remember," She said while coming down from her ladder after finishing up some painting. "When you make your speech, don't look at people. Pick a spot on the back wall, don't take your eyes off of it, and speak loudly."
She walked into the kitchen and picked up a garbage bag.
"Thanks, Mom." Blaine whispered taking the garbage bag. "Bye, Mom."
"Good luck."
Blaine hopped on his scooter and headed to the garbage can just outside his house. He lost control and had to jump off in order to not injure himself.
"Whoa! Whoa!" He screamed, startling his neighbor. "Sorry, Mr. Schuester. Have a nice day."
He put the bag in his can.
"I doubt it." William grunted.
Blaine shrugged and turned around, hopping on his scooter. He scooted for just a few blocks when he caught sight of his best friend, Finn just a few feet ahead.
"Hey, Finn! Wait up."
Finn looked behind him and waved, waiting for him to catch up.
"Hey, dude. You ready for today?" Finn asked.
"Absolutely not. I'm going to barf."
"I'll be there with you. Don't worry about it."
A few minutes passed and they finally arrived at William McKinley High School. They started parking their scooters when they heard 3 members of the glee club chanting.
"Hey, there, ho there. How do you do? This is the Titans saying hi to you!"
"I'm Hunter!"
"Nick!"
"Jeff!"
Blaine rolled his eyes. He couldn't stand any of them and God knows they couldn't stand him. Then his eyes looked over at the guy showing off to everyone as they walked inside. Sebastian Smythe. Blaine was totally in love with Sebastian but not like he knew. Sebastian was dating Hunter...he would never notice Blaine. He was pulled out of his thoughts.
"Off the wall! Rachel off the wall, please. Come on. You know better than that." Vice Principal Figgins yelled.
Blaine was talking to Finn and noticed out of the corner of his eye that Rachel was staring at Finn and smiling. Rachel had a huge crush on Finn and he had one on her but he hadn't told her because he liked playing hard to get.
"Good morning, Mr. Figgins!" Blaine smiled.
"Good morning, Finn." He said. He turned his gaze to Blaine. "Finn's friend." He smiled and walked away.
Blaine looked dejected. Even the Vice Principal didn't know who he was.
"Great." Blaine said.
"Hey, don't even worry about it. It doesn't matter." Finn reassured him.
"Yeah, yeah. Look, I'm going to go sit in the courtyard before school. I want to look over my notes and it looks like Rachel is heading this way. I'll see you later." He got a better grip on his backpack and walked away.
Blaine got comfortable on one of the benches and pulled out his notes for the debate today. He was looking at one making sure it was right when he felt someone sit on him.
"Oops. I'm sorry, I didn't see you." the boy said before walking away.
Blaine looked after the boy and was going to keep reading over the notes but decided otherwise. He needed to go find Finn. He grabbed his things and headed to Finn's locker. Blaine was lucky that he was even there.
"Somebody sat on me again." Blaine said.
"Really?" Finn responded.
"Yeah. I don't know what happened. I was sitting there, working on my speech and they just-"
"Jerk and jerk sighting." Finn interrupted, looking past Blaine into the hallway.
"Hmm?" Blaine turned around. Of course. Sebastian and Hunter were standing in the middle of the hallway making out. To make it even worse, Hunter blew a bubble and Sebastian popped it with his mouth. Blaine was using all of his energy to not throw up and then he zoned out.
He imagined that he was the one standing there in the middle of the hallway kissing Sebastian. He would give anything he owned to be able to kiss Sebastian. He imagined Sebastian walking right up to him and kissing him then and there. The thought alone made him giggle.
"What?" He heard Finn yell, pulling him out of his thoughts.
"What?" Blaine asked innocently.
"You never saw two idiots exchange saliva before?"
"Oh. Yeah. They're so rude."
"Good. You know, for a second there, I thought you were going 'A' crowd on me."
"Oh. Ha! Negative." Blaine giggled. He turned his attention back towards Finn and let his gaze travel to Finn's brother, Kurt who was standing with Rachel a few feet away. Kurt was facing towards them but wasn't doing anything. Blaine ignored him and turned back to Finn.
"Ready for debate?" Finn asked.
"Ugh. I'm never ready for debate." Blaine responded. "Let's go." He said, walking down the hall.
Blaine sat down next to Finn and listened to their teacher, Dustin Goolsby. He called Sebastian up to the front to argue opposite Blaine. He stared at Sebastian in awe but slowly started to get more and more nervous.
"Are you okay? You look a little green." Finn asked.
Blaine didn't think he could speak so he just nodded.
"This is not a debate. It's a control issue." Sebastian said. "McKinley controls our minds with what they teach us but you know what? They're not satisfied with that. I think McKinley should dump the uniforms and we have casual dress all year round!"
He was met with applause and even a standing ovation from Hunter, Jeff and Nick. The applause started silencing when they heard Mr. Goolsby shouting.
"Alright, alright! Okay, boys. Settle down. This is a debate, and after it's over I want you back in your school uniform." He said pointing to Sebastian who had ditched his uniform jacket for a regular sweater.
"Hey, boss, whatever you say." He said.
He stood up on his chair and started taking off his sweater causing him to get wolf whistles from the class.
"Sebastian, sit down." Hunter called.
"He's the man!" Nick said.
"He's my man." Hunter threatened.
"Okay, Sebastian, later, okay?" Mr. Goolsby said. "Down. Down, boy. You made your point."
Sebastian sat back down.
"Okay, now we've all heard from Sebastian Smythe for the affirmative."
Blaine leaned into Finn, completely paralyzed.
"What's my point again?"
"You like our uniforms. They're equalizers." Finn whispered back.
"Now we'll hear the rebuttal from Blaine Anderson who will present the negative argument against our proposition."
Blaine looked over at Finn who was giving him an encouraging smile. Blaine couldn't do it. He was going to throw up. His name was met with scattered applause and he was too nervous to even care. He stood up and heading to the front of the class. He turned to face them and looked down.
"Um...I th-think...um..."
"What a frizz-ball." Blaine heard Jeff say.
"Look at his hair." Nick responded.
Blaine looked over at them and saw them all laughing. As if his nerves weren't bad enough.
"Shh!" Goolsby shushed.
"Um..." Blaine continued. He took off his glasses to see if that might help his nerves. "You see, um...I...See, casual-casual...uh..." He stepped forward one step to try and make it easier on himself but it didn't.
Blaine felt himself breathing heavier and he knew he wasn't going to last much longer. He couldn't stay in here.
"Are you okay?" He heard a girl in the class ask.
"He's gonna barf!" Nick yelled.
"Oh, god! He's gonna hurl!" Jeff screamed.
"Cover the tuba!" Hunter finished.
Blaine couldn't do it anymore. He had to get to a bathroom and fast. He covered his mouth and ran straight out of the room not looking back. He ran as fast as he could to the closest bathroom. He threw up everything he forced himself to eat this morning and washed his hands. He needed to leave. He was going to die of embarrassment. He couldn't go back in there. He needed to climb. He always went rock climbing when he needed to get his mind off of things. He ran to his locker, grabbed his scooter and headed off.
Blaine was standing at the counter filling out a piece of paper when he saw his mom standing next to him.
"Hi, Mom."
She took off her sunglasses and folded them up before she spoke.
"The school called me. You threw up, huh? And you ran away."
Blaine gave a small smile.
"I'm trying to forget about it. Can I have some shoes and chalk, please?" He asked the man at the counter.
Pam put her arm around her son.
"Anyway, I'll go talk to your debate teacher. What's his name?"
"Mr. Goolsby."
"Mr. Goolsby...and straighten the whole thing out."
Blaine grabbed the shoes he was given from the counter and turned to speak to him mom.
"Mom, I am never going to be a good public speaker. Just call him and tell him I want to be a mime."
"I can do that!"
Blaine bend down to put on his shoes when his mother spoke again.
"Oh. Your grandmother called."
Blaine shot up.
"What?" He asked confused.
"The live one." She clarified. "Who lives in Genovia. Emma."
"Oh. Wow. Well, this is the first time she's ever contacted us. What'd she want?" He asked.
"She's in town. She wants to have tea."
"Tea? She came all the way from Europe to have tea?" Blaine asked skeptically.
Pam shrugged and gave a sly look to Blaine before changing the subject.
"I think I'm going to climb a little bit."
She turned and headed toward the climbing wall. Blaine furrowed his brow in confusion before following his mother.
They got strapped up and started climbing.
"Isn't this grandmother who made you get a divorce?"
Pam sighed.
"Well, she didn't approve of me but Devon and I made the decision to divorce on our own."
"Why should I go see this snobby lady who ignores us?"
"Blaine, she's your father's mother. Just go see her tomorrow. Please?"
"Tension!" Blaine yelled when he reached the top of the wall.
"She said your father hoped that you two would meet someday."
Blaine looked down and thought about it. He never knew his father personally but every year, his dad would send birthday and Christmas presents and they were beautiful. His father died about 2 months ago and he took it a lot harder than he thought. He figured that if his father could still take care of him even when he wasn't even around then Blaine could do this one thing for him.
He sighed.
"Alright. I'll...I'll go."
Blaine walked into choir class early with Finn the next day and there were a bunch of people just sitting around doing nothing. They all decided to have a lot of fun. Finn picked up a guitar and Blaine decided it would be best if he just kept to the beat by banging on a bass drum. Kurt, who was already on the piano bench, made room for Sebastian who decided to look ridiculous while pretending to play the piano. It made Blaine giggle as he watched. Kurt didn't look happy but Blaine couldn't feel too bad for him because they were just joking around. Blaine turned his gaze to the middle of the floor to watch Hunter dancing erotically.
They all stopped when the teacher walked in.
"Alright, I win! Band practice is over. I have a music class here. Get out!"
Blaine got up from his seat and went to stand next to Finn on his spot on the risers.
"Kurt!" The teacher said, pointing to Kurt who was getting his music ready.
"Are you sure you can't help me with my Spotted Owl petition today?" Finn whispered.
"I told you. I'm meeting my grandmother after school." Blaine whispered back.
"Oh. Right."
Their attention was turned to the teacher when they heard the piano start. They started singing as she started leading them. As much as he hated being in front of crowds, Blaine loved singing. He did it all the time at home and he'd like to think that he was pretty good. He got so lost in singing that sometimes he forgot he had to stop. He let the music overtake him while the thoughts of after school went away from his mind.
Kurt Hummel was in love with Blaine Anderson. There was no question about it. Blaine may have been considered a freak at William McKinley High School what with his head full of curls and his glasses but Kurt didn't care. To Kurt, Blaine was the most beautiful person he had ever seen in his life. And it didn't have anything to do with looks.
Blaine was nice, funny, smart, talented and was completely himself. Finn and Blaine had been best friends their whole life but Kurt had known Blaine since his dad married Finn's mom. 6 years ago to be exact. And he had been in love with Blaine 4 of those years. Finn knew about it too. At first, he was being teased relentlessly but when his crush turned into love, Finn just took pity.
Blaine didn't have eyes for Kurt. Sometimes, Kurt didn't even think Blaine knew he existed. He couldn't blame him either. Blaine was too good for him. Kurt was taller, had incredibly gorgeous blue eyes and perfectly styled hair but he didn't have anything else going for him. He couldn't compete with Sebastian Smythe. Blaine really liked him. It was no secret. Everyone knew. Finn had been trying to convince Blaine for a long time to move on from Sebastian but he wasn't having it. He really liked Sebastian and he didn't want to move on. Kurt understood. That's exactly how he felt about Blaine.
All Kurt ever thought about was Blaine. He loved him so much. The only relief that he got from thinking about Blaine was when he was playing the piano. Which is why when he got to play the piano in choir class, he was focusing on the music. that was until he looked up...he saw Blaine singing with a smile on his face. This is another thing that Kurt loved; how passionate Blaine got about things. Kurt was quiet and never really spoke when Blaine was around because he was terrified of saying something stupid. He had to stop singing when he looked at Blaine because he knew that if he continued singing, he would start crying. He had shed so many tears over Blaine but it made no difference. He was in love with Blaine...and he was only falling harder.
What did you guys think?! As you may have noticed, I added a few things. Also, this story is from Blaine's POV so throughout the story, maybe every chapter, I will be doing Kurt POV for things. I've always been curious with the thought process of Michael in the movie so I'm going to write them. Leave a review and let me know what you think! Peace and love! xoxo
