Military Brat

Passing the Welcome Ohio sign didn't faze Blaine much. He sighed rolling his eyes, leaning his head back on the leather back seat, turning up the music on his iPhone. His mother was in the front seat driving humming lightly to the music that played from the stereo. Her thumbs tapped against the wheel, her curly long dark hair swayed from the cracked window. Blaine looked out his window seeing a lot of green. It was just another state and another school.

"Cooper, are you excited to start your senior year?" Blaine's mother nudged his knee in the passenger seat. Cooper rolled his eyes.

"Well, I wish I could start it back in New Jersey where I spent my junior year, but we are in Ohio." Cooper grunted.

"Oh Coop it will be okay, you should be use to this by now." His mother said. Blaine rolled his eyes.

"Doesn't mean its not annoying." Blaine muttered from the back.

"Blaine, I didn't ask you. Come on boys don't you want to be close to dad." The car was silent. Their mother sighed. "Alright, fine, you wanna stay here when dad has to move again. We will stay." She said. Cooper sighed.

"What's the point, I'll be going off the college after this year." Cooper put his bare feet onto the dashboard.

"Umm, what about you younger brother, hello?" Blaine waved in the review mirror, his mother giggled.

"Yes, your brother is important too, you know." Cooper rolled his eyes.

"Yea, I know, enjoy settling down Blaine, hope your junior and senior year in the same school." Cooper said.

"Hey its not my fault." Blaine said.

"Not blaming you." Coop said crossing his arms pushing up the radios volume. Blaine sighed taking out his earphones grunting.

Running into the house with his bag on his back, Blaine shot up the stairs. He looked through all the rooms trying to pick one. He picked one of the bigger ones.

"I want this one, okay Coop." Blaine yelled.

"Yea, yea whatever." He sighed going into a room and closing the door. The movers already had the furniture in the room. Blaine looked around.

"Welcome home Blaine." He whispered to himself.

The Anderson's sat at the dinner table talking about the trip; Blaine's father all done up in his uniform was smiling at his family.

"Blaine, Cooper, you guys have a choice, you can go to Dalton an all boys school with a wonderful anti-bullying policy, or William McKinley High." Their father said.

"Well I know what Blaine's going to pick so I'll pick Dalton too." Cooper rolled his eyes.

"No, no, I'm done running I want to go to public school." Blaine said. Silence washed over them.

"Blaine, what happened in California can happen again sweetie." His mother said. Blaine nodded.

"I know, but I refuse to run, I really want to go to public school. I don't want to dress up in a uniform Mom." Blaine said. She nodded.

"What do you think Max?" Blaine's mother turned to her husband. He nodded.

"He needs a little push, good Blaine." He said getting up from the dinner table. "I got to go, I have night duty at the base."

"You go little brother, thank you." Cooper smiled running up to his room. Their mother sighed grabbing Blaine's hand.

"You will be okay Blaine." Blaine nodded.

"I know."

Blaine walked into his first public school since eighth grade. His nerves were high and his hands were shaking. He gripped onto his bag walking through the crowded halls. He felt smaller then he was, scared not knowing anyone. He turned his head slightly to see the room number he was passing and hit into a taller man. Blaine grunted falling to the ground.

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry." A higher voice said. Blaine sighed, looking up to see a pale perfect face in his view. Blaine opened his mouth to say something but only a embarrassing whine came out. "Did I hurt you, I didn't even see you." He said putting out a hand. Blaine looked at his long fingers before taking his hand. The boy helped him up.

"Thank you." Blaine said. The boy shook his head.

"No, no, its my fault. Are you okay." He asked. Blaine nodded.

"I'm Blaine." He said realizing that he was still holding the boys hand.

"Kurt." Kurt squeezed his hand, before letting go.

"Nice to meet you," Blaine smiled.

"Same, I haven't seen you around here." Kurt said leaning against the lockers. Blaine nodded.

"Yea, I'm new." Blaine smiled. Kurt tilted his head, smirking.

"To the area or just the school?"

"Both." Blaine sighed pressing his back against the cold mental.

"Oh wow, that's cool, where from?" Kurt asked.

"Everywhere," Blaine laughed. Kurt looked at his confused.

"Alright, well I'm sorry I have to do this, but its only because I cant live without it, do you sing or dance by any chance?" Kurt closed his eyes.

"Umm, yea, both, but I hope your not trying to get me to join some weird dancing team?" Blaine said. Kurt shook his head.

"No, no, we have a glee club here at McKinley, would you by any chance want to join. We aren't really popular and we take a lot of shit, but we are a family and we all watch each other's backs. Well we try too. Other then that, its like free Showtime, drama everyday." Kurt smiled. Blaine liked that smile. He looked down.

"Um, well I could try it. When?" Blaine asked. Kurt jumped up and down.

"We meet sixth period and after school. The second room down this hallway." Kurt pointed to the door on the left.

"I'll see you this afternoon then?" Blaine asked. Kurt nodded. He pulled Blaine into a quick hug.

"Thank you so much." Blaine tensed up; this had to be the first time he was this close to a boy.

"No, uh, no problem, see you later." Blaine blushed walking away the gorgeous boy. Blaine shook his head.

"Oh boy."

Lunchtime, Blaine walked into the cafeteria and saw his brother. Cooper waved him over. Blaine smiled walking over to him.

"Hey bro, how is it so far? Anyone bother you?" Cooper asked.

"No, no I'm okay I got invited to a club though, something that suits me." Blaine smiled sitting down.

"Huh, really what club?" Cooper asked.

"Glee club." He smiled Copper patted his back.

"So you little dude mind if I join you?" Cooper asked.

"Yea, we can finally do something together instead of you pushing me away all the time." Cooper rolled his eyes.

"I'm trying to change man," Cooper sighed. Blaine nodded.

"I know."

"Hey Blaine." A familiar voice sounded. Blaine turned around seeing Kurt, smiling. Blaine blushed.

"Hey Kurt."

"Um, I was wondering can I sit with you, I don't have lunch with any of my friends and I really don't want to sit alone." Kurt blushed. Blaine waved him over.

"Yea, come on." Blaine smiled. Kurt said across from him.

"Thank you so much." Kurt smiled placing his tray down.

"Who is this little brother?" Cooper messing with Blaine's hair. Litter Anderson rolled his eyes.

"This is Kurt, Um, Kurt this is my older brother Cooper. He's the one that invited me to Glee Club." Cooper nodded.

"Nice to meet you." Kurt smiled.

"Same, do you mind if I tag along. I also sing and dance?" Cooper asked.

"No, come, we need members, we lost a couple." Kurt sighed. Blaine nodded.

"Thank you." Blaine said.

"No its fine, Rachel will be fuming when I bring two members and she can't even get one." Kurt smiled. Blaine tilted his head confused. "Oh, Rachel is this little Jewish girl that has to be perfect, you will hear the words, Rachel Berry is a star at least once a day maybe even twice." Kurt sighed. Blaine smiled.

"Well, is she good?"

"Amazing, but very coincided." Blaine nodded.

"So, Cooper maybe you can answer this question. Where are you guys from?" Kurt asked. Blaine laughed looking at Cooper.

"Everywhere." Cooper said. Kurt's jaw dropped.

"What does that mean?" Kurt asked. Blaine laughed harder.

"We just came from New Jersey, but we have moved so many times we just say everywhere." Blaine smirked. Kurt nodded.

"Gottcha." Blaine smiled.

Blaine walked into the music room seeing a dozen kids running around laughing. Kurt was sitting in the back talking to a brown head girl. Kurt looked at the door and smiled waving. Blaine waved back walking over to the two friends.

"Blaine, welcome to Glee, um, this is Rachel." Kurt pointed to the small girl.

"Oh my god you were so right he is really hand-" Kurt kicked her. "Ouch Kurt, he's handsome god!" Kurt blushed so did Blaine.

"Thank you." Blaine whispered. Kurt nodded walking away with a hand on his face. Blaine watched him, his eyes raking over his back.

"So are you gay?" Rachel piped in.

"Um excuse me?" Blaine asked.

"Oh I thought you were, you blushed." Rachel said.

"No, no I am gay, just the question was random." Blaine explained. Rachel smiled.

"Good because Kurt is too and he had a hell of a year last year and I think he met one gay guy in his life and he kind of-" Rachel covered her mouth. Blaine looked shocked.

"Um, no it's okay, thank you for telling me. I really haven't talked to many gay people myself. And I moved around a lot." Blaine smiled. Rachel bounced clapping her hands.

"Good." Rachel smiled Blaine nodded, looking at the door to see Cooper.

"Looks like we have two new people who want to join." Mr. Shue said. Blaine and Cooper stood next to each other infront of everyone. "Alright you guys going to sing together or?" They both nodded.

"Yea together." Cooper smiled. Blaine nodded.

Dark in the city, night is a wire

Steam in the subway, Earth is a fire

Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do

Woman, you want me, give me a sign

And catch my breathing even closer behind

Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand (smell like I sound)

Just like that river twisting through a dusty land (straddle the line)

And when she shines she really shows you all she can (mouth is alive)

Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

Stalked in the forest, too close to hide

I'll be upon you by the moonlight side

Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do

High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight

You feel my heat, I'm just a moment behind

Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand (smell like I sound)

Just like that river twisting through a dusty land (straddle the line)

And when she shines she really shows you all she can (mouth is alive)

Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

Hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf

Don't make a sound

Her name is Rio, she don't need to understand (smell like I sound)

And I might find her if I'm looking like I can (straddle the line)

Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land (mouth is alive)

From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande (burning the ground)

Her name is Rio, she don't need to understand (smell like I sound)

From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande (burning the ground)

Both boys stood with their backs pressed together. The room whooped and cheered the brothers on.

"Anderson's your in." Mr, Shue said. Blaine and Cooper high fived smiling. Blaine leaped into the sea of seats, sitting next to Kurt. Kurt patted his leg smiling.

"Your really good, so is your brother." Kurt smiled.

"Thanks" Blaine blushed.

"Um, are you doing anything Friday afternoon after Glee?" Kurt asked, blushing.

"No, Um, no I'm not." Blaine held his breath.

"Want me to show you around, maybe get some coffee?" Kurt asked looking down.

"Sounds amazing." Blaine said smiling at Kurt. Kurt turned to look at Blaine, smirking.
