Agonizing

Hey guys! This is my first story, so please leave a review with some constructive criticism. I've read plenty of stories to know how this works, so if I'm not doing something quite right, let me know and I'll fix it. So I'll let you read and I'll introduce myself more as I get used to this concept. This will probably only be about five or six chapters, since I don't believe in elongating a plot to the point of reaching an unviable amount.

Disclaimer: I personally think adding this ruins the purpose of FANFICTION. I don't own Glee. Only people with creative minds could create such meaningful characters.

Blaine smiled softly as he passed the timid, yet somewhat flamboyant boy that he was lucky enough to call his only genuine friend. Popularity had its pros and cons, and he qualified his false friends as a con. Kurt was the boy's name, and although he was considered a loser, Blaine was able to see what others couldn't see.

Kurt's iridescent eyes glittered when he caught a glimpse of him before Karofsky, a guy who always passed the football to Blaine during games, as if the kiss up gesture would make him his new best friend, pushed him down and kicked him in the stomach. Although no one knew they were friends, Blaine ran quickly to help Kurt. "Karofsky!" Blaine's voice filled with darkness and hate as he spat the name of the bully. "What's your problem?" Karofsky paused as soon as Blaine approached. "Why are you standing up for this loser? Why don't you help me kill him and hide his body?" a teasing, devious smirk graced his face.

Blaine lunged forward to punch him, but a hoarse cry came from Kurt, who had begun to cough up blood. "Leave. Before I tell Coach Beiste about this." Blaine's words sparked slight fear in Karofsky, causing the bully to stalk off. Blaine kneeled down besides Kurt and slowly helped him up. "Are you okay? Wait, no, that was a dumb question, is there anything I can do?" he asked quietly as he helped Kurt pick up his books. He smiled sadly as he pulled a napkin out of his bag to wipe away the blood.

"Blaine, you didn't have to do that. If Karofsky tells anyone you stood up for me, your reputation could be ruined. You should have just let him tear me to shreds and burn my remnants. I would've understood." Blaine pulled Kurt into the janitor's closet. He looked straight into Kurt's azure eyes. "You obviously don't know what you mean to me. Kurt, you're my best friend. When it comes to our friendship, everything is secondary. I'll always be there for you." Kurt sighed. "Then why are we in a closet?" Blaine had many adequate answers, but for this, he had none.

Kurt completely understood why they were friends only when nobody could see them. He would never want Blaine to suffer the way he did. Tears blurred his vision, giving off a kaleidoscope effect. The pain in his chest he felt whenever he thought of Blaine hurting agonized him more than the cuts, bruises, imperfections marking his skin, scarring him, forcing him to believe this was all his fault.

Blaine shook his head as he pulled Kurt closely to him, as if to memorize the way Kurt's body fit perfectly against his. Kurt's ivory fingers slowly grazed his face, lingering as they touched his lips. This surprised Blaine. Kurt allowed him to touch him, hug him, kiss his cheek, etc., but Kurt hardly ever allowed himself to distribute physical contact.

"Don't forget me." Kurt sighed as he pulled away, lackadaisically. This was always Kurt's parting request. Blaine never understood this until the end of their time together, the end of his world. "Never," he breathed as he cradled Kurt's face in his hands, pressing a soft, gentle, lingering kiss to Kurt's slightly parted lips as a friendly gesture before leaving, a friendly gesture that always ended up breaking Kurt's heart more and more each day. Kurt didn't believe he mattered anymore, despite what Blaine told him. He was already broken beyond repair.

This is only the first chapter/prologue, so I'll make the chapters a lot longer once I get the hang of… This. It's a lot to get used to. I hope you guys like it!
