So I've recently been binge reading Klaine fanfics, especially the ones where Kurt meets Blaine for the first time after he's transferred to Dalton. So I thought I'd give it a go! I hope you like it! :) This takes place after Furt and everything on the show has happened so far except for Kurt going to spy on Dalton of course!
Chapter 1
Kurt was walking down the hallways at Dalton Academy on their way to see the Headmaster. His dad and Carole had come with him and even Finn as well. They had decided to help move him in on the Friday so that he had the weekend to settle in before the classes began on Monday. He glanced around and he could tell people were looking at him. Of course they were, he was the only one not in the normal uniform. It was obvious he was the new kid. However, what he did notice were that the looks weren't aggressive. Everyone either gave him a welcoming smile or even said hi to him. Kurt was brought out of his daze by a hand on his shoulder.
"You ok kiddo?" Burt asked.
Kurt glanced back at his dad and gave him a small smile and a nod. "Yeah I'm ok. Just a bit nervous I guess." He admitted.
"That's natural." Burt assured. "Everything will be fine. I promise you."
Kurt had to smile at his dad's attempt at reassuring him. "I know. Thanks dad."
They got to the headmaster's office and Burt and Kurt went in while Carole and Finn waited outside.
"I'm Mr Willis and I've been headmaster here for nearly 10 years now." He smiled at them holding out a hand to shake both Burt and Kurt's hand. "It's very nice to meet you both and I hope you'll enjoy it here, Kurt." He said kindly.
Kurt just nodded and sat down next to his dad.
Having heard about Kurt's troubles at his old school, Mr Willis looked up at them both his desk and smiled. "Now I'd just like to reiterate that the zero tolerance on bullying here is our top priority. If you get any trouble at all, even if you don't think it's a big deal, it is to us and if you tell one of your teachers or me we will deal with it straight away. I give you my word on that." He said.
Kurt nodded. "Ok." He said quietly. He glanced at his dad who gave him a smile and he could tell his dad was happy at what the headmaster had just told them.
"Ok. Now you will be boarding here, is that right?" Mr Willis checked.
"Yes sir." Kurt said.
"Ok, well I've asked your roommate to come and show you to your dorm so he should be here any minute." He smiled. "Do either of you have any questions?" He asked.
Kurt shook his head.
"Mr Hummel?" Mr Willis asked Burt.
"No, I think you've covered everything." Burt said. The main thing to him was the zero tolerance on bullying and he had already addressed that. "Is it ok to stay and help Kurt move his stuff in?"
"Of course. You can stay as long as you like." Mr Willis said.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Ah here he is!" Mr Willis said getting up. "Come in!" He called.
Kurt looked round to see a blonde haired boy come in. "You wanted to see me sir?" He said.
"Yes. I'd like you to meet your new roommate. Would you be able to show Mr Hummel and his family to your dorm?" He said.
"Of course." Jeff smiled. "Follow me."
Burt shook Mr Willis' hand once more and then followed Kurt and his roommate out. Carole and Finn followed behind them as well.
"I'm Jeff by the way." Jeff smiled at Kurt.
"Kurt." Kurt said.
"Nice to meet you! I'm so happy I'm finally getting a roommate. It can get very lonely without one!" He laughed.
Kurt smiled and instantly warmed to Jeff. "What happened to your last roommate?"
"Oh his family moved away so he had to transfer schools." He said. "Here we are!" He smiled stopping outside a room and opening the door.
Kurt followed him in and was surprised at the size of his. There were two single beds, two big desks and two big wardrobes.
"Do you need any help unpacking?" Jeff offered.
"Oh no it's fine." Kurt said. "I've got help." He said. He heard Finn mutter something. "Some more willingly than others." He joked.
Jeff laughed. "Ok well I'll leave you to get settled in then and I'll be back in a bit to give you a tour if you want?" He said.
"Sounds good. Thank you." Kurt smiled.
"No problem." Jeff smiled. "It was nice meeting you all." He said smiling at Burt, Carole and Finn.
"You too. Thank you Jeff." Burt smiled.
Jeff gave them a wave before leaving the dorm to give them some space.
"He seems nice." Burt said.
"Yeah." Kurt smiled. Maybe everything wouldn't be so bad after all, some of his nerves going.
Jeff came back to find Kurt putting the last of his clothes away and having changed into the uniform. "Your family gone?" He asked.
"Yeah, about 10 minutes ago." Kurt said. "My dad took some persuading but he finally left." He smiled.
Jeff laughed. "Yeah my parents were the same. You guys close?" He asked.
Kurt smiled, thinking about how much his dad had sacrificed for him. "Yeah, my dad's the best. He and my step mom actually gave up their honeymoon money so that I could transfer here." He said quietly. "I really owe them."
"Wow." Jeff said.
They were interrupted when a darker haired boy appeared at the door. "Jeff, it's time." He smiled.
"Oh cool!" Jeff said going over and giving him a kiss. He turned back to seeing Kurt staring at them surprised. "You ok?"
"Oh...yeah. Sorry I didn't mean to stare. I just...if I did anything to show I was gay at my old school, I'd end up shoved against my locker and slushied in the face." He said. "Sorry, I didn't mean to stare. Honest."
"Oh no worries! I'm guessing that's why you transferred?" Jeff asked.
"You could say that." Kurt said quietly.
Jeff noticed that Kurt didn't really want to talk about it so he changed the subject. "Hey, you should come with us! The Warblers are doing an impromptu performance." He said.
"The Warblers?" Kurt asked.
"Yeah they're like the Glee club here." Jeff smiled. "Come watch us! The whole school will probably be there. I can introduce you to some of our friends. Oh and by the way this is Nick!" He smiled.
"I wondered when you were going to introduce me." Nick joked. "Hey, it's nice to meet you." He smiled at Kurt.
"You too. I'm Kurt." He smiled.
"We should get going." Nick said. "You know how Wes gets!"
"Yeah you're right! Come on Kurt! We can grab something to eat after." Jeff said.
"Ok sure." Kurt said following his new friends out. He followed them downstairs to the common room area. Jeff and Nick rushed off to the group who were gathering in the middle so he held back and watched from the doorway. He couldn't help being mesmerised by the lead singer who started singing Teenage Dream. He had black hair which was gelled back and his voice was so smooth. His heart skipped a beat when he caught his eye and he smiled over at him.
After it finished, Jeff and Nick went over to Kurt. "What did you think?" Jeff asked.
"Amazing. You were all amazing." Kurt said but he couldn't help feeling his heart flutter when he saw the lead singer coming there way.
"Hey guys!" He said patting Jeff and Nick on the back.
"Hey!" Jeff grinned. "Oh Blaine this is my new roommate, Kurt. Kurt this is Blaine. He's going to win us Sectionals!"
"Don't jinx it yet, Jeff!" Blaine laughed. "Hey Kurt, it's nice to meet you." He smiled.
"Yeah...uh...you too." Kurt said, trying to keep himself together. Why was this guy having such an effect on him?
"We're going to go grab something to eat. Want to join us?" Jeff asked Blaine.
"Sure. Anything to get away from Wes and David!" Blaine joked.
"Are they having a domestic tiff?" Jeff laughed.
"Something about David eating his chocolate bar." Blaine smirked.
"Uh oh..." Nick smirked.
They went and got some food and then found a table in the canteen. "Can I ask you something?" Kurt asked. "Are you all...gay?"
The three of them all laughed and Kurt started feeling stupid.
"Sorry...I just...the way you were talking about David and Wes..." Kurt said trying to explain himself.
"No, sorry we're laughing. This isn't a gay school." Blaine said. "I mean I'm gay but David and Wes have girlfriends."
"Although they do act like an old married couple." Jeff joked.
"Oh yeah, totally!" Blaine said. "So Kurt, you moved in today?" He asked.
"Uh yeah, my dad thought it would be good for me to settle in a bit before I start lessons." Kurt said.
"True." Blaine nodded. "Well it's good to have a new face." He smiled giving Kurt a pat on the back. So welcome."
Kurt felt his heart flutter again and gave him a small smile. "Thanks." He said. They ate in silence for a bit before Kurt looked up again. "So...uh...I can't help but notice...The Warblers, they're actually cool here aren't they?"
"Yeah we're like rockstars!" Blaine said. He noticed Kurt's face fall a bit. "Hey, are you ok?"
"What? Oh yeah...I'm fine. It just reminds me of how uncool the Glee club at my old school was." He said quietly. "I'm pretty sure every member got slushied numerous times."
"Wait, you can sing?" Jeff said excitedly. "You should join The Warblers!"
"Whoa Jeff, don't pressure him." Blaine jumped in.
"But..." Jeff protested.
"Jeff..." Blaine said.
Jeff sighed but dropped it.
"Hey why don't we go say hi to David and Wes? Try and get them to make up." Nick said noticing how quiet Kurt had gone.
Blaine shot Nick a grateful look as he pulled Jeff up and off in the opposite direction. He looked back at Kurt. "So I'm guessing you didn't have a great time at your old school?" He said cautiously.
Kurt sighed and glanced at Blaine. "I was the only openly gay student there." He admitted quietly. "And this neanderthal made it his goal to make my life hell."
"I'm sorry." Blaine said sympathising, putting a reassuring hand on Kurt's shoulder.
"And of course, being in Glee club didn't help either." Kurt sighed. "I just...I can't believe how different it is here."
"I get it." Blaine said. "I transferred here last year." He admitted. "I got picked on too and I could tell the teachers sympathised and everything but they just didn't do anything. Some stuff...happened and I needed to get out of there. So I transferred here." He said.
Kurt looked at him in surprise. He would never have guessed that he would have gone through the same thing as him. "I'm sorry." He said.
"Don't be." Blaine said giving him a reassuring smile. "I promise you it will be better here. The teachers really deal with any trouble."
"That's what Mr Willis said." Kurt said quietly.
"And he's right. I know it's scary changing schools when you don't know anyone but hey you've made some friends now right? And friends look after each other. You'll be fine, Kurt. I promise." Blaine smiled.
Kurt gave him a watery smile. He hadn't realised his eyes had welled up. "Thanks." He said quietly.
Blaine smiled and suddenly took hold of Kurt's hand. "Come on, I'll introduce you to the old married couple." He joked.
Kurt laughed. "I'd like that."
"And if you do want to join The Warblers, I'm sure Wes would allow you to audition since you've just transferred here. But there's no pressure. Do what you want." Blaine smiled.
Kurt smiled back. "I'll think about it. But thank you." He said.
Blaine smiled and pulled him off in the direction of the table where Nick and Jeff were sat with David and Wes. "Brace yourself." He whispered in Kurt's ear, which sent shivers down his spine.
Kurt laughed and allowed Blaine to make the introductions. He sat down and quietly glanced around the table. He smiled to himself as he realised that he may have just made some really good friends. Suddenly he wasn't so nervous anymore.
