Chapter One: The First Day

Kurt Hummel hadn't managed to sleep well. He kept tossing and turning, nightmares of the next day waking him every hour. When morning arrived, he had to spend an extra 20 minutes on his primping to hide the bags under his eyes. Once ready he checked his reflection in the mirror and sighed, it was going to be a long day. He grabbed some toast and left the house, not wanting to talk to his father or step mother, they would only make a fuss.

As he got into his car, he felt his phone vibrate:

New Message from Blaine

Opening Message

Good luck today. Call me when you finish school.

Of course Blaine would text, he was caring like that and, he knew all about the Dave Karofsky situation. They had had an hour long conversation last night, mainly filled with Blaine telling Kurt it was probably time to start running away otherwise things could get messy. Kurt had to remind him not everyone can afford tuition at private school and he would see what school was like.

Kurt pulled into the parking lot of William McKinley glad to see he was the first car there. He would normally have arrived at the same time as Mercedes but recently they had fallen apart so they hadn't been having there quality time together. He got out of his car and strolled towards the school, his fears of Dave and his gang flooding back to him as he walked in. Luckily, the school was empty and he could go to his locker, get his books and get to the practise room without any bother.

Once in the safety on his singing haven, he walked over to the piano and took a seat on the black stool. He always found it a shame that he didn't to play during rehearsals but William Schuster didn't know he could play, so it wasn't a shock. He reached into his bag and pulled out some sheet music. He set it up gently on the stand and started playing the tune.

I will not make, the same mistakes that you did,

And I will not let myself, cause my heart so much misery.

I will not break, they way you did you fell so hard,

I learnt the hard way, to never let it get that far.

Because of you, I'll never stray to far from the sidewalk,

Because of you, I learn to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt,

Because of you, I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me,

Because of you, I am afraid.

Kurt's voice started to crack as he reached the chorus and he stopped playing the tune. He was afraid of what was going to happen. He had gotten Karofsky expelled, infuriating his friends. Now they were rejoined, they could cause some serious damage. A tear slid down his cheek and he quickly wiped it away.

"Hey Kurt, I thought I heard the piano". Kurt looked up and saw the smiley face of Mr Schuester. "Hey sir" he replied, trying to keep his voice even. However, is red eyes gave him away and Will walked over to him, pulling a chair up next to the piano, "What happened? Are you OK?". Kurt shook his head and sighed, "Dave Karofsky is back today and, like I already explained to you, I am terrified". Will nodded his head to show he understood and sighed, "I'll keep an eye out in the halls". Kurt shrugged his shoulders, "Do what you want, it won't stop him" and he stood, picking up his bag and leaving the room.

The halls were starting to fill up now and Kurt was on edge. At any moment one of the monsters on the football team could turn up and he would somehow be injured. Glad he had already got his books, he headed for class. As he turned into the corridor he heard a familiar voice behind him shout "Oi Hummel"…

Hope you all enjoyed, let me know if you have any ideas! Rate and Review… Much Glee love to you all!
