Mercedes Jones was five when she was told she had cooties. She had gone over to Alex Perm on the playground and told him that she liked him and in the spur of the moment planted a kiss rite on his lips. He spat on the ground and said she had cooties and she was grows. Mercedes was stunned as she looked at the boy who she had a crush on since the beginning of kindergarten. She reciprocated by kneeing Perm in the groin.
"Jerk!" she said angrily.
"You go girl friend!" Mercedes turned around to see who was cheering for her and before her was Kurt Hummel. He was holding an apple juice box in both hands with the straw in his mouth. Mercedes had seen him during naptime and he was the only boy heck the only kid who wore a satin sleep mask during. He plucked the straw from his mouth and extended the juice box to her face
"You want a sip?" he asked.
"You don't think I have cooties?" Mercedes was surprised. Kurt kissed her on the cheek.
"Nope" he answered. Mercedes blushed
"I think I'm in love," she thought.
"Mercedes um Mercedes?" Kurt broke the diva from her child hood memory and looked at Kurt sitting across from her at the lima bean.
"You want a sip of my ice coffee?" he asked.
"You don't think I have cooties?" she laughed. Kurt gave her a big kiss on the cheek like all those years ago.
"Nope" he smiled.
"I may not be in love with him but he's the best friend a diva could have." Mercedes thought.
