Chapter 1 – The Torch Song
Honestly, and genuinely, I hated today. I hated it with the burning passion of a mother's love toward her child, and that is some strong love right there. I honestly can't understand what I did wrong, like seriously. I was perfect, well at least I tried to be, and he just up and left me here. I was so stupid as to let him leave before I finished the bill. Now I'm here all alone, and just received the worst text message of my life. Well actually worst two text messages, one telling me that he was leaving me, and the other telling me that I was worthless. Great, now I get to stand here, feel like an idiot, and be a stupid person….
I grabbed my phone out my pocket; I dialed Jeff's number, no answer. I called it again, and still no answer, the third time, I realized he was intentionally ignoring my calls. I slumped down on a nearby bench, trying my best not to cry. After a few minutes, I got myself together, and I finally pulled my phone out to find a way home. Mom would just investigate the life out of me, dad I'm not too certain of, I kept scrolling, and eventually I placed my bets on Kurt, he was reliable. I called him once, it went to his voicemail. The moment I was about to call my mom though, he was calling back.
'Hey! Saw you called what's up?" he said with a slightly caring tone to his voice, usually if I wanted to talk, I would text him first.
"Um, hey Kurt, I kinda need a pretty large favor" I said trying to one hold back tears, and not seem weak in his presence.
"Shoot"
"Can you come get me?" I sighed a breath of somewhat relief? I guess you could say "I-I-I got ditched tonight so, I'm pretty much stranded."
"Oh my gosh, where are you!" He said in a squeaky tone somewhat "Um, I'm at this mall, I'll give you the details in a second, wait I think I can see it, I think I'm on Elmer Road…" I said squinting my eyes at the street sign.
"Hm…okay I know where that is, I'll be there ASAP." There was a click on the phone, and I went to sit on a bench.
I just don't get it, how could I, Blaine Anderson, allow myself to be so stupid. I fell for someone, again who stood me up, I mean we haven't exclusively been boyfriends… but we practically could've been. We've been talking and hanging out for three months, three damn months, and he just ditches me? I can't process this on any level, I look out at the parking lot one last time, just to make sure this wasn't a joke….but it wasn't… I waited 30 minutes until Kurt finally pulled up and got me. He was dressed in very simple clothes, but then again it was also 10:20 at night. I was a bit cold from being outside from so long, but it could've been worse. Kurt sat next to me and looked at my face.
"Alright, so wanna tell me what happened?" I looked at Kurt, and for the first time since my dad tried to beat me straight before finally accepting me, I cried. I'm not going to beat around the bush anymore, I felt like shit.
Kurt put his arm around me, until I stopped crying, he kept shushing me and rubbing my arm until I calmed down. I tried to pick my head up off his shoulder, but I somewhat failed, I was comfortable, and he kind of was relaxed, so I think his arm was asleep. I finally sat up though and folded my hands in my lap.
"So, there's this guy I've been seeing for a while now. We're not exactly committed just a friends with benefits kinda thing." I started looking at Kurt who looked back at me attentively.
"Uh huh, keep going."
"So I thought things were going good, we hadn't slept together or anything, but we've been talking like a couple pretty much. He was almost everything to me, and tonight he just proved to me that I meant absolutely nothing to him." I paused to try and hold back the tears from my eyes. "I was paying for dinner, and so everything was going normally, he offered to go get the car, and he said he'd be he when I was done. I got my card back, go outside, and he was gone."
Kurt looked at me with a few tears in his eyes
"Well he's a bastard, a real man could handle you, not in that sense" he said quickly, we both chuckled in an awkward manner.
"Well come on, let's get you home." Kurt said getting up and clicking on his car. He opened the door, and I got in and he got in after I did.
"Alright, so do you want to stay over? Or do you want me to drop you off home?" Kurt asked. I thought about it for a minute, my parents really wouldn't give mind to me coming home, yes they love me, but they knew I was going out tonight, and mom said so long as I called….sides I'd rather not have to explain this situation to my mother.
"Um your place if you don't mind. I'd rather not have to deal with my mom being Detective Anderson tonight."
"Alrighty!" said Kurt in again a high pitched squeal. "Do you mind if we get some coffee before getting in, I just reaaaallly want some."
"Sure, and you kinda are the driver.." we were parked at a light and Kurt changed the station to something classical. Hm….good taste.
We drove all the way to Lima Bean in small bits of talk here and there. When we got to Kurt's house, Mr. Hummel was sitting on the sofa watching the game, I guessed he was waiting for Kurt to come back.
"Hey Dad." Kurt said entering the door before I did.
"Hey son." his face expression changed a bit when he saw me, but then he smiled.
"Hey there Blaine." He said
"Good evening Mr. Hummel." I said a bit quietly.
"No need to be so polite kid," he said with a chuckle. "Welp, now that you boys are here, I can head on to bed, night boys."
"Night dad, I love you!" said Kurt.
"Love you too son." And Mr. Hummel was gone. We were standing in the living room.
"Well, um where do you want to sleep? You can sleep out here, or to not make is seem so scary to everyone in the morning, you can…you can sleep in my room.." he said in an awkward kind of voice. Um, your room, it'd be a bit harder to explain, scrap that, Burt had already seen us, so it's just Finn and Carole, and Burt probably told Carole, so it was alright. We walked quietly into Kurt's room, so we wouldn't wake anyone else.
"Here," said Kurt going into his closet and handing me a spare blanet and a pillow. "I keep it in case someone/one of the girls crashes over for the night."
"Ah" I said quietly, while laying down the smaller Blanket and lied down to try and fall asleep. Finally after several minutes of tossing and turning, I was comfortable.
"Night Kurt." I said mid yawn.
"Night Blaine," I heard him from his bathroom. He was taking a shower this late…weird kid.
