As high as the moon - so high were my spirits ~ Kindly Unspoken by Kate Voegele
When Kurt Hummel was a little boy he never conformed to what was expected of him. His mom fully embraced it, and his dad tried to understand it. They knew, they knew who Kurt was when he was young. It was so obvious. Not only did he ask for sensible heels for his birthday, but when he was five years old instead of taking peewee t-ball like his dad had hoped he would Kurt took ballet. And at their first performance for the parents when Kurt Hummel got up on that stage (as the only boy) and shined like a million stars.
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away ~ Yesterday by The Beatles
Well, I always had problems. I learned how to adapt. The bullying didn't hurt as much; the cold rush of a slushie on the face wasn't that shocking; those slurs were now almost meaningless; and the feeling of loneliness. But it wasn't that kind of a problem. It was a relationship problem… Not like unrequited love with Finn. But it turns out a boy actually likes me. But sometimes the signals are so mixed I don't know what to do. All I can do is hope that Sam will act on that obvious crush.
Far in the distance, this is the view from the other side ~ Devil In Me by Kate Voegele
I had never had this much power before. It felt like I deserved it. After all of those years in Lima; working my ass of in college; and all of the small clients. This was the big time. Kurtiann designs would become a well known name in the fashion industry, and then I –Kurt Hummel wouldn't be designing just one jaw-dropping dress for the Oscars. All of the Hollywood elite would be rushing to me with their ideas (that I would politely shoot down in favor of something much more spectacular than the drab designs they had in mind)
I was on my way to the top.
When I was young I knew everything ~ The Freshman by Jay Brannan
Kurt Hummel always thought that he was superior to everyone. He knew he was superior to his peers. All throughout his school years he knew he was the one who would be baiting in money while the Neanderthals cleaned his drains and tiled his mansion. It wasn't like he planned. He planned to be either a magazine editor, fashion designer, or a Broadway performer. Maybe a combination of all three of them. Never did Kurt think he would end up a teacher in Iowa. No one knows everything.
It's late at night and I can't sleep; missing you runs too deep ~ Time for Miracles by Adam Lambert
The room just wasn't the same without Finn. He finally got his wish and got a room upstairs once my dad fixed it up, and I was glad that Finn was more comfortable now. But I still missed him; not in a romantic way, but I still missed him. Even though I slept in this room alone for almost all of my life. The new familiar was gone. There was no loud soaring, there was no screams of panic at 2 AM about pizza turning into monsters, and it felt so silent. I felt the silence, and the emptiness. I missed Finn Hudson. Once I finally got around to sleeping that night I heard a light creaking, and then the stumbling of a naturally awkward Finn that awoke me from my sleep.
"I missed you, Kurt… Sorry about everything. Can we try and be friends?"
"Brothers."
